Rpberts to acting- president S. N. F. Chant Thursday. The presentation was made before 250 graduates during the "business and festivities" of the joint, Convocat Convocation-Alumni banquet. Half the money collected by the Alumni committee was earmarked by the donors for specific scholarships and gifts. The rest is for men's residences, the swimming pool, Alumni regional schol arships and other funds..

This year Pacific Breweries Ltd. started a fund which will give ten $500 scholarships to beginning UBC students each year, Mr. Roberts announced. Finning Tractor Co., is another new scholarship fund, has arranged for scholarships of $250 each. This fund, now earmarked for UBC students, has formerly been used to buy customer Christmas gifts. Other business at the banquet included budget and committee reports. Attorney-General Robert W. Bonner was guest speaker.

Peloso Ivan Feltham 'Mild' In Criticism Of NFCUS Fee Raising Policies By RAY LOGIE A mildly worded criticism of NFCUS and its policies was delivered by Ivan Feltham, Student Council President, at a * noon- hour meeting Friday. Feltham, one of UBC's three f delegates, to the 1953 NFCUS Conference, hinted that the fees, now, raised to 50c were unnecessarily high.

Students Issued Warnings For Parking Infractions Almost 300 traffic warnings have.been issued so far this term to students who park their cars in campus no-parking zones. Campus drivers are cooper- — gating "very well," however, R. M. Bagshaw of the controllers' office said. FIRST OFFENDERS He said the majority of students who get first offense tickets cooperate by not parking in restricted zones again. A second offense 'is worth a $2 fine. Thereafter it costs illegal parkers $5 a ticket. "We don't want their money," Mr. Bagshaw said. "But wc must keep the fire xenes in front of buildings clear." Admission To Pep Meet By Clothing Only Victims of the recent Greek earthquakes will benefit from the first pep meet of the year in the armories at noon Thursday. Sponsored by Lambda Chi Alpha for the World University Service, the pop meet will feature downtown entertainers, Admission to the noon-hour show will be any article of clothing or 1.5 cents. Sponsors of the pep meet have emphasized that their main interest is in old or used clothing. All proceeds from the show will go to buy needed clothes and blankets for people left homeless by the earthquake. Well identified boxes to collect clothing will be placed in every major building on the campus. Investigation Into Towels Brian Daniels, Teacher Training, and Doug Cole, Physical Education, have been appointed by the Undergraduate Society Committee to Investigate the method of dispensing towels in the new gym.

Yeggs attempted to chip their way into the vault and, when unsuccessful, jimmied a sriack- shop door and made oft wilh $18 from the till. Estimates of thc damage done to the building' run as high as $525 according to University officials. Most of the damage was caused to the doors of both the gymnasium and the snack-shop.

Feltham made no mention at the meeting of his recent proposal to withdraw from NFCUS. On returning from the con* ference a month ago he had said "Rather than increase our contribution to NFCUS to 30c a head, Vaughn Lyon and I think we should recommend withdrawal from NFCUS." "A bill of rights for students and student governments was passed at the conference." "But we have on this campus more rights than was annunciated in this bill of rights," he continued. "It was decided to have no formal association now but to wait" before taking a definite stand. Apply Now Or Miss CNR Xmas Train The annual Christmas train to Edmonton is being arranged this year by Harry Weber. All interested students should phone Weber at CH. 1005 between 6 and 9 p.m. or Dick Maze at CH. 0917 after 6 p.m. Return fare for the trip will be $33.25. The train will be run only if a sufficient number show interest, according to Weber. But he added that those living beyond Edmonton on the CNR route may also take advantage of the opportunity. PRO Threat To Quit Puts Through Motion By AB KENT The threatened resignation of AMS public relations officer Bill St. John, resulted Monday in Student Council passing a "definite motion" ensuring student discipline to effect the ending of poor university relations. St. John told councillors that*^ he would have no other alterna tive than to resign his post If council refused to ensure him that some definite move be taken toward obtaining discipline at such events as the Bellingham Invasion and the Applied Science smoker. His original motion was defeated on the deciding vote of president Ivan Feltham. It stated that the discipline.committee should enforce proper conduct at student functions. DISCIPLINE The PRO'S accepted motion stated, in effect: That Student Council request the AMS discipline committee to enforce by-law 10 of the constitution, and to ensure proper student discipline, according to by-laws, at all functions, which will result in such functions proceeding along orderly lines. By-law 10 in the constitution refers to liquor on the campus, playing* cards for money, disorderly conduct, etc. PUBLICITY St. John declared that under the present conditions, it is impossible lor him to build good public relations with the downtown public, considering the repeated incidents in which UBC students are involved. Students should be willing to discipline their own behavior, he felt. WITHHOLD "The only way to avoid bad publicity downtown," he stated, "is to prevent the events that cause that publicity." Commerce Cleared On USC Charge A report on the investigation into charges against "two commerce students arising after the Bellingham invasion was made by Jim McNish to the undergraduate Societies committee Monday. USC voted to dismiss the charges, which alleged two students, both of commerce, left the Leopold Hotel, Bellingham, without paying for their roon after McNish said "the charge were not valid." The students did not act in a way unbecoming to university students, McNish said. One student in fact, was not in Bellingham that weekend. His name was entered in the register because another student expected him. The difficulty over paying arose when thc student left his key with friends after leaving early.

Girls are to bring box (Continued on Page 3) See CLASSES OVERTIME SUPPORT FOUND Library To Get Attention By KEN LAMB The Library, known to most people attending this university as that building where one goes to either ogle al. the girls or hold a political meeting, has found some support from the students. The Studeni Library Committee, under the chairmanship Cameron Aird, 2nd Law, been formed as a liason between the studeni body and the Librarians. "We hope to take the student problems to the library and the Library problems to the students," said Aird, "Very few people on the campus know much about the Library. It's our idea to help them and o has the "Librarians." The chairman and two other members of the committee, Julia Meilicke and Norm Ormes, have been ferreting out complaints from Ncal Harlow, the chief librarian, and members of the student body. First move the SLC will make is to install a suggestion box on the reference desk. This was done two years ago and one of tiie suggestions concerning lights in the reference room was looked into by the General Electric Company. "The Library staff will be only too willing to receive any complaints from the student body," said Aird. On the Librarians side Aird reported there are many students who do not realize the importance of the books. Every, day many books are returned overdue and furthermore the students do not seem to care about paying the fines. "One student had to pay a $100 fine. He seemed as though he couldn't care less," ssid Aird. To the gratification of the professors of English history and literature, it appears some students are taking an interest in those subjects. This interest has gone so far as to cause some students to cut pages concerning these subjects from three different editions of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

I-I, For! Camp, would like to add my four cents worth. (Inflation, you know. The proberbial "two- cents worth" is not much these days; the paper it is printed on costs more). Some people like to make a lot of hullabaloo oyer simple problems. The communist problem is a very simple one. If we are able to reason and it is presumed a university student does have the faculty to reason sensibly—we should have no difficulty in keeping the issue clear. I was particularly impressed by the editorial "Our Own Smear" in last Friday's issue of the Ubyssey. For the benefit of those who are not able to find a copy of that issue, I would like to quote one paragraph: "The truth is simple. The Ubyssey has always opposed Communism as a way of life. That does not commit us to believe that everything a communist says or does is wrong.* We are opposed to Communism. That does not commit us to agree that everything then an anti- communist says or does." ' Do you not think the editors hit the nail squarely on the head? Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, the man who drafted India's constitution, has made an interesting observation: "In America, democracy is good. In England it's good. But I don't like Americans insisting that democracy is good for the world. The world may be in different conditions. "Whether you like Russia or not, you cannot do without collective farms and' many other aspects of their system in this country." Dr. B. R. Ambedkar would have been wiser if he had said that collective farms and other aspects of the communist system are good fdr India but that the country should not forsake all phases of democracy for communistic dictatorship. Communism is not the answer to India's problems just as, according to Dr. Ambedkar, democracy is not. If the preceding presentation has not been strong enough, I might add that nineteen centuries ago there came One Who> gave man a way of life which is supposed to' be THE way, Christian civilization. To what extent is this way followed today? If man cannot accept it, then how can he accept communism, which to my way of thinking, is much inferior to Christianity? It is obvlops that the result can only be a dictatorship which places no value upon the individual. In my concept of freedom, each individual's life is as important as any other's and each individual has a right to the basic freedoms. If our university education is directed towards aiding us in carrying out the duty mentioned above and if we do not fail in our obligations, mark my words, our civilization will attain new heights. Then we could sit back, and for our amusement, read about men like McCarthy and Gostick, who will appear to be much funnier than the characters in comics. Think about lt! G. B. LANDIS, lArts.

Speaking at a meeting of the UN Club Friday, Dave Young- son said that profits from Arabian oil influenced British and American support of Arab policy toward Israel. A third year law student, Youngson spent two months ln Israel this summer on a Hillel Foundation Scholarship. FEUDALISM Officially, the Arabs will not negotiate with . Israel because they believe that the Jews usurped the country without having any legal claim to it. However, Youngson fWlt that Arab officials are afraid that they would lose their feudal power if the Arab masses contrast their own condition with that of Arabs In Israel. The borders between Israel and her neighbors were described as arbitrary and impractical. Negotiation will be necessary before these borders can be established to the satisfaction of Jews and Arabs. PEACE WANTED "Israel wants nothing more than peace," stated Youngson. But he felt that this end was not being achieved because "the Arabs will not recognize Israel as a sovereign state and will not negotiate peace." The problem is intensified by the fact that the borders are too long to be effectively patrolled by police on either side. Consequently, smuggling and infiltration across the border are common.

She will provide all applicants with the necessary information plus an outline of study for Canadian subjects that the appll- cants should know. Most of the scholarships will be for Asiatic countries. There will be some for Africa. One or two for Europe and possibly only one for Greece. Since the scholarships are limited in number, students are advised to contact Dr. Ormsby as soon as possible to have all information and applications ready for entry in April. eral Acadians concede that the food situation has improved lately, and if this is any indication of the trend of things to come, it is a great relief to our digestive and nervous systems. op op Op Take breakfast.

PAGE FOUR THE UBYSSEY Tuesday, November 24, 1953 UBC Squad Edge Kerries Move To First Place Tie 'Birds Score Twice In Opening Five Minutes By STAN BECK The UBC hockey team moved into a tie for first place in the Inter-City Amateur Hockey League on Friday night when they defeated the league - leading Kerries 6 - 5 at Kerrisdale Arena in a hockey game which had just about everything a spectator could ask for. ____ ® The Thunderbirds got off to a flying start with two goals in the first five minutes. Ray Ing scored the initial marker at 4:31 on a double relay from McMahon and Kirk and 19 seconds later Jimmy Todd repeated for the 'Birds on a solo effort. Kyle, Top Still Harris Record; Losers Doug Kyle and Peter Harris are asking themselves what they have to do to win a race after they broke the record in the Oregon intercollegiate cross country championships in Portland last Thursday and still lost the race. However, Ken Reiser of the University of Oregon also broke the record that he had previously set and beat UBC's Doug Kyle by forty yards. Ken ran the three miles in 15:405. His old record, set in 1051, was 16:16.7. Kyle's time was 15:49 and Harris was 15:38. It's worth noting that Kyle took a wrong tufn ln the course when he was in the lead and had to go through thorn bushes to get back on the route. Reiser only beat Kyle by forty yards and Doug lost pretty close to that when he took his wrong turn. Collingwood Trims 'Birds, Breaks Jinx Collingwood Athletics finally broke the jinx that the Thunderbirds had held over them for two years when they defeated the 'Birds 1-0 in the stadium on Saturday afternoon. It was more by the grace' of God than by playing better soccer that the Collies won. 'Birds literally ran the baffled Collies into the ground in the first half with a dazzling display of precision passing but they could not put the ball through that all-im At the end of the first period the score stood 2-1 for the 'Birds but coach Mitchell must have told the boys to get some insurance markers as they scored three goals to Kerries one in the second frame. The nicest goal of the game came halfway through the second period when Cliff Frame took a loose puck and passed it to Bob Geigerich who sailed in all alone on the Kerrie goalie and scored a picture goal. KERRIES FLY LATE The 'Birds came out for the third period nursing an apparently safe 5-2 lead when things suddenly took a bad turn. Bob Lovett, UBC's star center man was hit above the eye by a flying puck and knocked cold. He was carried off the ice bleeding badly and had to be taken to the hospital where it required eight stitches to close the gash. Lovett's loss appeared to disorganize the 'Bird badly and twelve minutes later the game was all tied up 5-5. However, the 'Birds pulled themselves together and at 16:25 McCulloch, the most dangerous man on the ice, fired the winner from twenty- five feet out. COACH DICK MITCHELL has every right to be smiling as his hockey team has vaulted into a tie for first place after losing their first two games. The 'Birds moved into first place by beating the league leading Kerries 6-5 in an exciting game at Kerrisdale Arena last Friday night. Braves Fourth Rack Up Shutout EZRA WHEATCROPT The Compost Heap IGNORING the finer points of women's fashions for a moment, your peerless prognosticator will now bring you up to date on all the inside deals of campus sport. Aside from the fact that Piltdown Pete Lusztig, president of MAD, is the only student on campus who can afford to live in the white towers by Acadia camp, we haven't many scandals today but stick around . . . Don Coryell, the original Waikiki Kid, pulled a new and a highly appreciated trick among football coaches when he recently took over as Tomahawk rugby coach. Albert Laithwaite has always been beset by coaching problems, it being impossible for him to coach ajl three teams. Coryell, who got his rule book Sunday, did the good deed of the season by taking over the Tomahawk squad. Now if only more rugby planters would turn out for football. And speaking of the grid sport, did you know that the rowing team is trying to persuade some big husky football types to turn out for crew. Hope they get them cause Frank Read's rowers will probably be the only UfeC team with a chance of representing the dear old maple leaf in the BE Games next August. Pete Harris and Doug Kyle will likely make it as individuals. So might ex-Washington sprinter Bob Hutchison if he decides to go back into training. BASKETBALL BAGS BIG BOYS Going way out on a limb, we fearlessly predict that Pomfret's Birds will win at least three Evergreen Conference games this season . . ., and we're counting on Geoff Craig not to cut off that limb ... the lanky ex-Clover Leaf can make or break UBC this year. Pomfret has lost only Bobby Hindmarch and Gundy McLeod this year, has added Stu Madill and Hec Frith along with Craig and we'd like to see the team that's going to. stop McLeod's running hook-shot. Glad to see ex-Thunderbird Harry Franklin is coaching the Braves . . . couldn't understand why some of the outstanding Bird alumni never volunteered to take over the junior squad which has coaching problems every year . • - - . UBC Braves 17; North Shore 0 UBC Tomahawks 3; Rowing Club 3 By GEOFF CONWAY The UBC Braves racked up their fifth straight win, and fourth shutout (third by a 17-0 count), last weekend to remain in a tie with the Kats for the top position in the second division of the Vancouver Rugby Union. points a game scoring average with two first half tries. Jack Maxwell added another and the forwards crossed the line en masse for a fourth major which gave UBC a 12-0 margin at the breather. Edgett received a head injury at the close of the half and didn't return for the second frame. Roger Kronquist converted a try by Adrian Banerd to close out the scoring. Two other second half tries were disallowed when Varsity players downed the ball outside the poorly-marked end zone. The Tomahawks' Ken Urqu- hart parted the uprights with a second half penalty boot to offset a similar effort by the Row- in", Club in the opening frame, and salvaged a lie for UBC. And lie pins his budget-bugs down, too — by stately sarin t> at ro 4 *".i
