Chisholm. speaking in Physics 200 at noon Friday is sponsored jointly by the Pro- Medical Society and the Special Events Committee. In his long career as a civil servant of Canada and the Piiited Nations. Chisholm lias never retrained from saying exactly what he thought a'id this has often brought linn vast attention, favourable and otherwise. While he was deputy Minis ter of National Health and Welfare in 1944, Chisholm gave a lecture in Washington in which he declared that "oile of the belated purposes of psychotherapy is the rein ierpre'ation and eradication of the concept of right and wrong which has been the basis for child training." At the same time he called for "the substitution of intelligent and rational thinking for faith." These remarks brought demands for Chisholm s removal from Ihe Health Ministry. However, Chisholm continued to express his unconventional opinions. A few years later, a storm arose again when psychiatrist Chisholm suggested that seekers of public office should submit, to psychological testing More recently Chisholm expressed himself in favor of birfn control in order to save ful:ire generations from starvation. He un.'.od Canadians to have two or three children. If they wauled anymore, they could adopt .some from over-- populated conn trie.-'.

"Full of sound and fury signifying nothing." Absolutely nothing. Liberals, "infuriated" over the recent NFCUS-sponsored •'political" speech of Attorney-General Robert Bonner passed a motion condemning the local branch of the national student federation. Mr. Bonner's speech was one of an excellent series of talks on Canada the campus NFCUS committee is sponsoring this year. There was nothing political about hs speech. He merely outlined some of the problems facing the nation generally and B.C. specifically in our rapidly expanding economy. It was more of a statistical review than anything else. However, the campus Liberals, not unnatural, don't like Mr. Bonner and so they condemned his speech and his sponsors. "This motion will start the ball rolling," commented Liberal Club President Darrell Anderson. "From now on the Liberal Club will continue to press for the collapse of NFCUS." It's so long since the Liberal Club, or for that matter anyone of the campus political clubs, have done anything constructive that the Liberals evidently thought they might as well do something destructive. The attitude of the Liberal Club is akin to that of a spoiled brat who flies into a tantrum when his mother won't buy him an all-day stacker. Instead of trying to destroy NFCUS why don't the Liberals help try and improve it and make it a worthwhile organization. NFCUS £tMtHdi'Hf foot*! Exit Attlee Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: With reference to your article pertaining to the campus Liberal's stand on NFCUS, we wish to make clear the point of view that the executive took In this matter. We are not going on a crusade against NFCUS, nor at the present time are we going to aid the stand or fall of this organization. These" and the other ominous statements that The Ubyssey quoted us on are deliberately twisted in order to make news. Although we will not stoop to the old cry of the harried politician of "misquote", we do claim that what The Ubyssey printed was, in the main, individual, persdnal opinions of tho executive, and not the Christianity FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES Soon after Clement Attlee became Prime Minister, a group | of worried Laborites approached Foreign Minister Ernest Bevin to ask if he or one of the other more dynamic chiefs would I be willing to take over from "Clem." "Hell," said Mr. Bevin, "I'm a prima donna, Cripps is a prima donna, and Morrison i is a prima donno. We're all a let of bloody prima donnas and I what's needed is someone like Attlee to keep us in order." For 20 years Mr. Attlee kept them in order. How he did lit is a psychological - political question likely to intrigue future Labor historians. For Mr. Attlee does not conform to the con- [ventional picture of a successful politician. It was MacDonald's decision to form a National Govern- Itnent in 1931—which other Laborites called a "sell-out"—that I paved the way for Attlee's rise to leadership. As a result of iMacDonald's action, Labor went into the election of 1935 di- Ivided and with little power. It came out with still less. Attlee Iwas one of three Laborite M.P.s with ministerial experience Ito survive the election. Moreover Attlee—shy, selfless, hard- |working, quietly effective—provided a sharp contrast to the >rilliant MacDonald. Attlee was elected party leader in 1935. The rest ha.s been front-page history—formation of the wartime National Government with Churchill as Prime Minister »nd Attlee as deputy P.M.; Labor's sweeping election victory in L945 ("This is incredible," said Attlee as the returns poured in); lis accession to the Prime Ministershp; his sponsorship of the far-reaching socialist revolution (as bloodless, said London's /its, as Mr. Att'.'e); hi.s decision to free India, Burma and >ylon; finally, in 1!>51, Labor's election defeat and Attlee's return to the rule of Leader c\\' Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition. Life magazine, in its big year-end issue, gave to Christianity that panoramic grandeur which it gives to every golden subject it really likes: American food, American capitalism, American musical comedies, America in general. Now it was American Christianity, with a little side glimpse at Christianity in colorful India and troubled Europe toward the end. The pages were spread with<^- " the Onward March of Faith . . . the Unprecendented Wave of Religious Observance . . . the Biggest U.S. Archdiocese . . . with splendid reproductions of religious art, and hymns, prayers, and creed in massive colored Gothic script. We looked for a word to describe that grand, sweeping, inclusive, colorful quality Life gives to everything it touches, and we remembered one of a Hollywood producer is said to use. He says, somewhat to the mystification of his colleagues, that every one of his movies must have it: "Scope." Well, Life's 35 cent, 168-page, double-barreled issue showed that Christianity—like America and Time, Inc.—has scope. COURAGE It took courage and planning to treat this subject, for it meant picking and choosing, delving into matters on which every reader has his feeling and prejudice, balancing Catholic and Protestant, Billy Graham and Harvard, and setting aside a couple of pages in which to confine the world, the flesh, the devil, and the theologians. To put out such an issue was to risk heartfelt criticism from every sect and every side, a thing editors are not often willing to do. The risk was all the greater because Life no longer contented itself with the position of a detached onlooker, as it had in earlier articles on Hinduism, Buddhism, and such: This time, along with the words and pictures about the march and the challenges, the rugged basis of American Protestantism and America's moral consensus, the testimony of a devout President and the Apostles' Creed, could be heard the unmistakable sound of drums. Even some of the advertisers were moved to join the pilgrim throng; two gigantic pages of Peace of Mind from State Farm Mutual Insurance, some Wise Men from Hilton Hotels. Things to Remember from Olin Mathieson Chemical Corporation. OLDER PITCH We don't necessarily object to drums, but we wonder about the implied argument from Scope. Isn't it like that older pitch for Christianity, which argued from Us history (the nineteen hundred years; it's prepared statement which waa 'given the paper, and which the editor did not see fit to print. If The Ubyssey wishes to quote individual opinions, well and good, but we must most vigorously protest this rather underhanded trick of giving oficial endorsement to personal opinions. Briefly then, our stand was that the students of this university do not pay NFCUS $3000 per year to sponsor political speakers, when the political clubs bring the students this service for nothing. If they consider this to be their real function, then by logical implication they have in fact, no real function whatsoever. It is the responsibility and indeed the duty of the political clubs to sponsor political speakers. This responsibility is far removed from the concern of NFCUS, if they cannot find anything more profitable to do, they have outlined their usefulness. —Executive of Liberal Club. bean around a long lima!), or from its extent (tha •ighi hundred million living Christians; look at all the people and art and kinds and countries!) To quote, in this unlikely context, from Mrs. Browning, "Love to wrought can be unwrought io." A faith grounded juit on sweep and numbers and color and longevity is at their mercy. And, anyway, is that the basis of a man's faith, that this is something big and booming? Nothing about truth or sin, or inner satisfaction of the soul? FORTUNE In an article in Fortune, Editor Henry Luce set forth more explicitly his hopes for America and Christianity. (Again, it's a little hard to distinguish.) By 1980, in his soaring vision, with our technical development we may become "Collaborators with God in charge of evolution," we may "Christianize Atlas" and have a "spiritually oriented" evolution, whatever that is; we will have overcome the habit of poverty, perfected the High Organization of what Science can do to Nature, and be ready for a "greater Renaissance" that will not be pagan." That vision has Scope all right. It is Life-like, and it goes well in the burgeoning, wealthy Fortune-extolled America from which it comes. But how does it differ from any other enthusiastic boom—except maybe that in this full employment boom of ours, God too Is given a job as a collaborator? As we read Mr. Luce's glowing words and those endless evangelical pages of Life on America and Christianity, we begin to yearn for something Christian, and something American, that is missing. The Christian note that's not really there is contrition; some sense of a distance between our national ethos, our "evolution," out "collaborating with God," and an ever-questioning faith. The American note that's missing is a bit of frontier skepticism and humor. After pages and pages of this sober stuff we begin to hear a very American voice, perhaps Mark Twain's, saying as Life's parade marches | Phone AL toward th.it big blond of tech- ■ and 8 p.m. nology.

As Afro-Cuban jazz, it was a distinct failure; but taken as a North American jazz quartet plus two South American drummers, its successes were considerable. The group was attempting, as beret clad leader Suter intimated, to fuse elements of South American rhythm and North American improvised jazz into something meaningful and fairly new. BILLIOU8 The attempt failed. Latin America was suitably represented by bongos and conga drum; American jazz was represented by four Vancouver- ites who played—and looked —very much like American jazz musicians. But North and South never really got together musically, and the result sounded something like a bilious Dave Brubeck Quartet wearing huaraches. This is not to say that individually, the musicians did not play well. They did; and sometimes they played very well indeed. But something vital was missing; the good neighbor policy went down in musical flames. PRECISE The South American contingent (Rodriguo and Rene Del Diego on bongos and conga drum respectively) were driving and precise; but through no fault of their own, they contributed little, The Sextet was actually a thoroughly North American jazz quartet, with two latin drums added; and the whole was definitely no more than the sum of its parts.

Floor OU Sevmour Street Phone: PA. 7042 Pianist-leader Suter and tenorman Wally Snider are both capable, and sometimes inspired musicians. But at times, their performance sounded like a skillful imitation of Dave Brubeck and Paul Desmond in one of their more intimate moments. THROATY Snider's throaty tone and facile technique highlighted some of the selections, but shattered the dreamy mood that should have been sustained in some of the others. Suter, unfortunately, played a bit too softly; the man is worth hearing, and should make himself heard. Bassist Paul Rhuland was probably the top individual player. His solos were consistently exciting, and technically amazing; and his rhythmic chores were solidly executed. Drummer Al "Boomer" Cle- land, as usual, played well, but a bit too loudly. As always, he swung. OUT OF WORLD By far the best number was something called "Clear Out of This World", which, despite its Mardi Gras connotations, is a dreamy, ethereal ballad. Rhuland's bowed bass and Suter's piano combined to create a lovely, spun-glass mood, which was unfortun« ately shattered by the tenor saxophone, which really did not fit in on that particular number. UNSOLICITED Unsolicited advice to leader Suter: stick to piano and leave the MCing to Alec Templeton. Suter's MCing eforts, to put it charitably, were painful to witness. They marred a performance that was, despite some considerable discrepancies, thoroughly creditable. :U: FILMSOC '' **< .'A For Students And Staff Onlvz Presents Alec Guinntss The Captain's Paradise Yvonne de Carlo Celia Johnson TODAY—12:30 to 2:30 Admission 35c Students and Staff Only For Mardis Gras Costumes See WATTS & CO.

Braves Give YMCA Good Hoop Battle By DWAYNE ERICKSON Despite Lance Stephens 22 point effort, UBC Braves dropped a close 55-47 decision to league leading YMCA on Tuesday night in a Junior Men's basketball game played at King Ed Gym. This was the first loss suffered by coach Peter Mullins since he took over the coaching duties left vacant by Jim Carter, former Bird now starring with Sea-Funs of the Sr. "A" league. Ken Oddy sparked the win for "Y" as he came into the game in the fourth quarter and scored six points after their Braves battled their opponents on even terms for more than three quarters. YMCA's margin was never more than eight points and at half time they only held a slim one point lead over the varsity team. Hijjh scorers for "Y" were Oddy and Holyoak with ten points each. BRAVES SECOND Th* Bv ves are in second place in-i'ie league standings with a 4 ; nd 5 record. The unrcleated "Y" has nine wins. We Van and Marpole trail in the standings. UBC h: - six league games left to be !>laycd, two of these are cancel ed games which are to be pi; ved against Marpole and YMCA. There is also one exhibition game scheduled against Lester Pearson, the team which is strong favorites to take the B.C. high school provincial ■tournament. Dave Demaresq, first string guard of the Braves will be lost to the team next week when he laves for Gonzaga College in Washington. However, UBC veteran Dave Horton was just added to the roster and is expected to fill the vacant spot nicely. STEPHENS BEST IN LEAGUE UBC Braves boast league's high scorer in the person of Lance Stephens. Lance has an average of 17 points in eight leaue ames, and should fit in very well in Bird coach Jack Pomfret's plans for next year. The Braves have almost cinched a playoff spot but coach Peter Mullins said that experience will tell the story in the finals. The top three teams will playoff with the first place team getting the bye. The winner will meet Alberni Junior Men for the B.C. final. YMCA—Ofallon 2, Oddy 10, Keller 8, Garey, Petersen 2.
