ALBERTA 6 The Western Canadian Intercollegiate championship came home for more than 5,000 -UBC football fans Saturday. Cheered on by the largest Homecoming crowd in WCIAU history, the Thunderbirds defeated the University of Alberta Golden Bears 13-6. It was Thunderbirds' second championship in three years, and a game that the crowd won't , forget for a while. It was a game highlighted by sparkling runs, spectacular passes, aggressive defensive play, and a stirring comeback by the Golden Bears that failed in the final seconds. It was played under circumstances that would do justice to an Alfred Hitchcock thriller —the teams had tied 14-14 two weeks before, and were tied for first place. Saturday, they were within one touchdown of each other until the end of the game. The Bears scored first, blocking Barry Cark- ner's punt on the UBC three-yard line. Three plays later, fullback Ted Frechette cut off tackle for the touchdown.

Gordy Olafson looks on. that gave UBC the earlier tie with Alberta, completing a 30-yard pass to Tom Andrews at the Bear five yard line. Fullback Roy Bianco burst off tackle for the touchdown, Dave Barker converted, and UBC led 7-6. The Birds slowly added to their lead, Barker booting a field goal, and Carkner a single. Late in the game, UBC linebacker Wayne Henry blocked Maury Van Vleit's kick, but Van Vleit alertly booted the ball through the end zone for a safety. UBC was leading 13-6, and had Alberta bottled up in their own end when Ken Neilson grabbed a desperate pass from Smith on the UBC 18-yard line. With less than a minute left, Smith tried three times for the pass that would have tied the game, but each time, great plays by the Bird secondary knocked them down. "I've never seen a team that wanted a game more than our boys today," grinned coach Frank Gnup in the jubilant Bird dressing room. Guard Roy Shatzko, the defensive star of the game for UBC, played most of the game with a broken rib. End Tom Andrews caught five passes for 144 yards on a knee that was supposed to keep him out for the season. * UBYSSEY Vol. XLIV.

A third-year education student, Lynn reigned over both Homecoming dances and appeared at Homecoming football game Saturday. 'Surprised' brunette is Queen now By MIKE GRENBY A green-eyed brunette was crowned Homecoming Queen at Friday's Homecoming dance in the Armory. Lynn Galbraith, 20, faculty of Education's representative received the trophy and crown from President Norman MacKenzie after the 13 candidates had been presented. •Sr •«• V The two Homecoming princesses also received trophies. First princess is Zora Lucyk, 21, a graduate of the University of Saskatchewan. She is taking graduate courses in the School of Social Work which she represented in the Queen contest. Second year Arts student Gerry Mao, 20, is second princess. Gerry, Permament Residences' candidate, is planning an Honors Sociology program. An attractive five feet seven inches, Lynn is in the third year of her intermediate teaching major. She includes skating, dancing, swimming and clothes- designing among her hobbies. She is also interested in modelling and interior decorating. On campus Lynn belongs to Alpha Gamma Delta sorority and is on this year's Mardi Gras committee. "I was scared stiff, quite frankly," Lynn said after the coronation. "I couldn't have been more surprised." TP Tr V Lynn won out over 11 other girls to represent her faculty, and came out on top again as she defeated the 12 other queen candidates. Two thousand people jammed the Armory Saturday night while the Friday night dance attracted only about 700. Xing' costs too high/ say trio Heads of the university's three "organized" under-gradu- ate societies disagreed Monday with a student discipline committee proposal that would see each society assessed $20 for damage resulting" f r o m the "King of the World" crowning demonstrations. Instead they will ask their members to approve payment of half that amount back to their societies for consideration. Damage to Brock Hall during the demonstration has been estimated at $80. Student vice-president Eric Ricker proposed each of the societies, aggies, engineers and foresters, pay $20. The remaining $20 was to come from AMS general funds. "The onus of responsibility lies with the three faculties," he said. But he acknowledged Student Council's hands are legally tied and it cannot forcibly assess fines. Engineering Undergrad Society president Terry Guest said the Brock clean-up bill should be "mostly the responsibility of the other faculties." He maintained the Intellectual Student Committee should be> assessed the other 50 per cent of the cost of the door. matically deadlocked each being afraid that if another was granted more, their own budget might suffer. • that not quite enough insight was allowed the various groups in order to specifically suggest where the budget should be cut to accommodate his own needs. • that the treasurer was neglecting his duty in not wishing to do any extra work to rearrange the budget when it appeared neces.sary, but rather suggesting that dissatisfied groups would find it easier to apply for money from the margin. Rather than handle the chair at these meetings, he was seen to monpolize these meetings with a continual stream of edi- torialization. UCC was awarded a grant of $4,000 in the Alma Mater Society budget given second reading last week. "These charges are neither true, nor fair, nor valid," Scott said. "I am specifically charged with negligence and if negligence can be proven I will resign. "If not, I will request that these statements are formally withdrawn." "I am surprised," he added, "particularly as the budget was passed unanimously by this group (budget discussion group) and there was no mention made of these sentiments then." The UCC minutes were rejected by council. UCC president Eric Mitterndorfer, will be requested to attend the next council meeting Monday for further explanation of the committee's minutes. He was unavailable for comment. The budget discussion group was made up of representatives of UCC, Undergraduate Societies committee, Women's Athletic Association and Men's Athletic Association.

SEY Tuesday, October 31, 196V, Letters to the Editor Creeping commercials —reprinted from, the CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR In 1948 :the fledgling American television networks allowed 15 seconds for station breaks—time for spot commercials on local stations. In 1951 the allowance became 20 seconds; in 1956, 30 seconds. And now two of the major networks propose to expand this commercial gap to 40 and 42 seconds respectively. In the language of t!he day, this is sheer creeping com- tmercisJism. The station break may be becoming more of a good break Hor local stations; but at the same time it is becoming decidedly a bad break for the poor viewers who might well have to watch as many as six successive commercials per break if the new plans go into effect. : Monetary issues are at stake. The networks claim they are simply giving, more "home rule" in letting local stations "(including the lucrative ones owned by the networks themselves) gain more revenue time. Network sponsors object, however, to having extra free riders on the shows for which they 4opt the bills. But the basic issue should not be lost sight of:. that Hie viev.ers' entertainment and, education time is being steadily eaten into and replaced by an increasing number of often irritating little capsule spiels. " . * Federal Communications Commission chairman ^Newton Minnow has promised to look into this cramming of commercials. We would expect the National* Association of Broadcasters' excellent new president, LeRoy Collins, to do likewise. The NAB has a voluntary rule restaining mmbers from, over- spotting station breaks. Some enforcement is needed. Otherwise, sales of Blab-Off devices may expand once again—so that viewers, like the inhabitants of commercials, may say: "Just as this invisible shield protects me ..." Dotted Swiss .Nothing short of plastic edelweiss would be likely to arouse such pro-Swiss indignation as the American Food and Drug Administration has just shown over the case of the Swiss cheese with the artificial holes. That federal agency has issued a detailed statement—presumably a holograph—on why it recently seized 2,700 pounds of cheese. "Natural" holes, the agency white paper explained, should be large, well-developed, shiny around the edges. The offending ^perforations were. mechanically punched, unshiny, ^nd hardly large enough to quality as even dotted Swiss. Furthermore, manufacturers of the rapid Swiss apparently knew their counterfeit was not very convincing. They packaged it with slices of the real thing outermost. This parallel to counterfeiting has led one romanticist in our office to wonder whether, the federal cheese operatives .broke the case at a delicatessen, while idly toying with a ham- .and-Swiss. The idea of an FDA man casually lifting off a slice of rye to apply some mustard, then staring in disbelief and reaching into his wallet for a piece of genuine Swiss to com- fpare it with, does seem rather pleasing. Whether or not the agency's cheese men use private ey« atactics, they could further endear themselves to mystery lovers •by issuing a white paper on how to tell just which of those old, -mold-covered dheeses in the refrigerator is really Roquefort. Reprinted from the Christian Science Monitor Carnival clown Editor, The Ubyssey. Dear Sir: One cannot condone the contemptible disregard for human dignity and inherent freedoms as manifested by the mass student reception for "King Homer", but one can understand the child's fixation for a carnival clown. This charitable analogy cannot be applied to the flagrant disregard for common courtesy exemplified by the balcony benchers at Friday's panel discussion. If the increase in admission requirements results in a proportionate rise in the mass mentality — then administrative accolades. As one student who should represent the entire student body in this matter, may I extend my apologies to Dean G. C. Andrew, Dr. T. Conway and Dr. D. Belshaw. GRAEME M. LITTLEJOHN. You did what? Editor, The Ubyssey. Dear Sir: In the Friday edition of Ubyssey, Ed Jackson and Chris . Harker, in their letters to the Editor,- denounced the actions outside of Brock Hall on October 23. I agree with their points of view, but I would like to ask one. simple question of each person. Ed Jackson; when you state "let us the student body, when we see wrong being, done, do something about < it",- are you considering yourself a part of "the student body" and. if so, what- did you do on Monday to stop the "wrong being done"? • Chris : Harker,.. are you a player on this world's stage and when the call came of "Get the Engineers", did you move to "get" an Engineer? : I hope that your actions on Monday^ are worthy justifications of your philosophical thoughts . expressed • in your letters; to- the editor in1 Friday's paper. MARY THOMPSON, Education V. Traffic battle Editor, The Ubyssey. Dear Sir: Battling the Marine Drive traffic every morning,- the following thought has occurred to me: 1. We have commissionaires on the campus 2. Why not put them to good use and 3. Have them direct the morning traffic coming off Marine Drive into the campus, in the following way: a. Block off traffic route going on to Marine Drive coming either from Lot A or from the other- lots. b. Traffic entering campus from Marine Drive should use right hand lane to go to Lots B or C and use left hand lane (actually oncoming traffic lane) to turn off to Lot'A. c. Handling of traffic in this way would eliminate the bottle-neck now created by all traffic entering the campus off Marine Drive having to converge into • one lane and' thus slowing down traffic considerably. d. This should be done by erecting signs and stating a specified time, namely between 7:45 and 8:30 a.m. The sign should be placed on Marine Drive some yards before turn off onto campus. Traffic from other end could be directed (or re-directed) by commissionaire. How about doing something constructive about the traffic problem? I. PAULUS, Arts IV. SCM medieval? Editor, The Ubyssey. Dear Sir: Is there any group on campus where a good, upstanding atheist can convert lowly, reactionary Christians to the happy life? Where can one participate in the stimulating clash of dialectics? Are all the followers of Christ afraid to come out into the open : and argue? There is no such group and the Christians are afraid to argue. Take the SCM. The members of this medieval institution huddle together in a large hut, discriminating against non-Christians and hiding from the light of argument. They huddle together and repeat well-tried, standard platitudes which they know = are acceptable.by all there in the group. The revolutionary force of Christianity has so far deteriorated that it is today a mewling common 7. place conformity through which groups like the SCM attempt to isolate themselves into security and the status quo. What we need to- - „ . i day is change and freshness. Look around SCM — there's a world outside that newly _ painted hut. BRUCE RICHER, Arts IV. "I dig dug — huh? Editor, The Ubyssey. Dear Sir: Since I am unwilling to reveal my abysmal ignorance before this vast concourse of intellectual learning I feel it necessary to write incognito, to ask your help in deciphering a peculiar example of modern billboarding which has graced our campus for the past several weeks. The extraordinary bit of exterior decorating to which I refer is a small piece of yellow cardboard which bears the cheery slogan "I DIG DUG." Now, in puzzling out this little gem, I have narrowed the field to three possible alternatives: (1) It is the confession of a freshman who is suffering from an ungovernable mother complex. (2) It is advertising put out by one of those unprincipled firms that manufacture sponge- rubber spare parts for blunt young ladies who wish to sharpen up. (3) It is an attempt to dispel the apathy which usually accompanies the voting for Homecoming Queen. I would certainly appreciate any elucidation you might be able to give me; and I am confident that you will understand that it is not "sour grapes" when I say that personally, I'm a leg man. Anticipating your early reply I remain, CONFUSED. Ode on a 50 TUNE OFf- BYE-BYE BLACKBIRD : Here we go a raegatonning, Megatonning, megatonnintg, ' Bye-bye mortals.

Because of you I missed one lab, two lectures, and Homecoming iWeek-end. My girlfriend won'>-talk to me and my professors give me stony stares. But I did it for you! What was it? Why, the Western Canadian University Press Regional Conference hosted by The Sheaf, U. of Saskatchewan. Hard news coverage will appear other places in the paper. Here you get $96 worth of triviality. Flushed with the knowledge that our freedom of the press was still intact and that we are the only paper with a coke machine in our offices I went to sneer at less fortunate : student Eewpapermen and to console the newspaperwomen. * I come back a bitter and disillusioned editor. The things that they have which we so desperately need. How have we been able to survive without a bat mascot like The Gateway has? I' ebuld survive that but why, whir can't we have freedom like The Sheaf. They have a tunnel from their offices to the women's residences. 1 can't go on! We don't even have a cute girl-type editor-in- chief like The Manitoban boasts. Anyway, on to the conference proper. The session was opened by the chairman attempting to gavel to death a fly who was out of order. Several hours were wasted in serious CUP business but finally a Gateway delegate took the floor on a point of information. He informed the assembly that The Gateway had sold a subscription that day deep in Sheaf territory. We really didn't want to deflate him with the fact The Ubyssey has subscriptions in all their "territories"' but we couldn't resist the temptation. Now we arrive at my impressions of the University of Sas- " katchewan campus. The campus, not being isolated like UBC's, achieves a cohesive entity by using the same type of stone facing on all the buildings. Students who are pained by such monstrosities as our own library can well appreciate the effect. Attention council members! A possible solution to the discipline problem is at hand. U. of S. employ "union custodial assistants" to patrol the student buildings. These assistants are students employed to check the rooms in the Student Union building, etc. So you think you have troubles. U. of S. students have to pay $7.50 for the privilege of walking all the way .in from their parking lots. Past Chancel lor set as example to grads —Photo Dy Don Hume REFEREES GOING TO THE DOGS?

E. A. Parnall. Largest single, increase was in the faculty of arts and science where enrollment is up 22 per cent from 5;837 to 7,063. Other faculties which increased are (1960-61 in brackets): agriculture — 202 (179); medicine—230 (203); education —2,394 (2,190). and graduate studies—659 (516). Enrollment in other faculties: applied science — 1,221 (1,33.9); forestry — 179 (183); law — 227 (235); pharmacy — 139 (153); commerce—619 (631).

Arena before the report was presented to an administration committee. The report was prepared by the chairman and secretary of the Client's Committee, a joint student-faculty committee investigating basic requirements of the arena, and Was supposed to have ;been considered toy council before it was sent to the administration. ' The draft cannot be considered as final until it lias been approved by Student Council. Student treasurer Malcolm Scott said student-faculty committees tend to disregard their responsibilities toward the student government. "They tend to regard their deliberations and decisions as being.subject to review only by the administration," he said. He said that if this tendency is not stopped Student Council could find itself in the position of rubber-stamping . every decision made by a joint committee. "Some councillors, myself included, regard this as symptomatic of the general tendency cf joint student-faculty committees," he said. Student Councillor Pat Glenn said, "I am disappointed that Council didn't get to see the report at the same time as the administration, as the student body are contributing half the money and should be given equal consideration and voice in the construction." Scott said this is a highly undesirable state of affairs, as in many cases these committees deal with funds, a majority of which, are supplied by the student body.

The reasons for this are hard to grasp, harder especially in a culture such as ours, which recognizes so few social divisions. if, if. if. It is obvious that certain distinctions and reservations must be maintained in any situation of this type. But do these not automatically arise and hold sway because of social conditioning, if for no other reason? In the outside world it is not taboo for the manager to break bread and bottle with the clerk, if he considers his clerk stimulating and enjoyable company. Does authority suffer or do predjudices arise out of a meeting of mutual interest and satisfaction? Surely intelligent human beings are capable of evaluating their respective positions and to act accordingly. if. if. if* Time spent at university, whether in the role of student or professor, is a life in itself —a life which cannot be lived half way, but must be taken from every aspect, savoured and digested. There is so much for the mature student to gain and assimilate from those around him and so many willing that he should obtain it. The material absorbed and later re-spewed during the hours set forth in a time table are of paramount importance. But those desiring to do so should be permitted to partake of a closer intellectual and social relationship with no fear of repercussions. if. if, if. Any university, a wonderful and intriguing institution founded for the education and enlightment of intelligent adults, should be above condemning a practice (supposing it to exist) which in the long run can, kept in its proper perspective, be beneficial and inspiring to those concerned. The cup of hemlock is no longer to be feared, surely saner heads prevail. *T UNOERSTANPTH' DEAN HAD HIM 'SUSPENDS F0RTH6 gfcST Of- TM Tw
