fright Faced Youths
. tool many UBC students under 21 will
object to being characterized by the Norfolk
*md Western Railway as "bright-faced
Souths." Their showing an interest in education by their current full page advertisement,
in Newsweek allows them some imagination
in their label for those under voting age.
The railway's appeal to parents to take an
interest in sons' and daughters' education u
commendable even if it is tempered with the
frightening thought that many of us are on
"Stalin and Company's prospect list."
The quotation from resident James Gar-1
field that "Next in importance to freedom
and justice is education, without which
neither freedom nor justice can be maintained" is sobering indeed.
No one could object either to the railway's
request that parents investigate "radical ideas
brought home from the classroom." Radical
ideas are often worth investigating. In these
days of mental stupefication, nothing could
be more commendable than thinking about
original ideas.
What we can object to is the Norfolk and
Western Railway's implied opinion about our
students and our beliefs. The railway doesn't
see mto think that bright minds go with our
bright faces. One teacher, they say, one text
book, could bring Communism tb hundreds
or thousands of young minds.
We protest the implication that pne teacher,
or one book is sufficient to sway us from
'right" to "wrong". We protest the implication that our beliefs are so ill grounded and
that democracy is so unattractive that one
hint is all that is necessary to wean us to
Communism.
Bring out these so-called "Pink" or "Red"
theories into the bright light of intelligent
investigation. Give us the chance to discover
and to reject fallacious thoughts and iniquitous ideas.
Our danger is not'that Communism is so
attractive that students will flock towards it,
but rather that we will not have practiced
thinking. A belief that students must he
sheltered from others' ideas is far more dangerous than any Communistic belief.

Blood Drive Ballyhoo
The results of the present blood drive have
shown again that UBC students have no
sense of civic responsibility. The blood donated in this drive has fallen far short of
donations collected last spring during lhe
"Beat Texas" campaign.
We arc quite sure that better results will
be attained next spring, when the student
borly vvill hv faced with an All-Canadian
university competition, hut we still fail lu
see wliv tin- ivs|iuh ,e should havo been so
weak this lime.
Do UBC students really have'to be bally-
hooed into giving blood by weird publicity
campaigns?
We have come to the reluctant conclusion
that UBC students make perfect "sucker"
material for ad-men; that they would respond
more lo a campaign to save baby seals from
extinction hy alcoholism than to a mere plea
lo save human lives by blood donations.
whole campus becomes disillusioned. I think you've got a few
good potential hot mamas down
there, and some of the men don't
look like they would be adverse
to hiding a 2fi of gin in the filing
cabinet, like in the old days.
How about it?
