In honor of Homecoming, 1948, material has been gleaned from files of two decades ago for this special issue edited by Ace Williams. Scow Here Daily Ubyssey Photo By Bob Steiner Beauty and the Beast EVERY NOOK AND CRANNY of the campus was being searched this week for "Mr. Pigskin," UBC Legion's mystery man. Yesterday, Legion officials gave out clues in the form of a jingle as to his identity. Meanwhile these two co-eds were nosing about the animal pens in search of the gentleman. Their friend above appears nonplussed by their attempts to identify him. . 4«r '■»*»'* Chief Trades Canoe For Plane; Flouts Tradition Chief Billy Scow, president of the Native Brotherhood of British Columbia, arrived by air in Vancouver this morning. Chief Scow traded his canoe to Queen Charlotte Airlines for an aircraft and expressed satisfaction with the trade although he said he would rather have come the traditional way if time had permitted. He will make formal presentation of UBC's new Thunderbird Totem pole, gift of last year's graduating class, at the football game with College of Idaho tomorrow. Ex-President Assumes Blame In Fund Probe Character And Integrity Defamed By Fund Probe Says Livingstone <•>- 'Tween Classes Toronto, Oct. 29 — Grant Livingstone, president last year of UBC Student Council, assumes "full responsibility" for whatever "mismanagement'' of student funds may be revealed at the University of British Columbia. ® _ . _ Livingstone is in Toronto today as UBC delegate to a Canadian conference of the International Student Service. He and Cliff Greer will present UBC's case for German scholarships recently approved at UBC. SUSPICION THROWN Reports of UBC financial difficulties has thrown a suspicion on his character and integrity, he said. He plans to return to Vancouver as soon as possible to appear before UBC's investigation committee. Dave Brousson, UBC Student Council president issued the following statement Thursday after a long distance telephone conference with Livingstone in Montreal: "I have received word from Grant Livingstone in Montreal, where he is reporting regarding his trip to Europe on international student affairs, that misleading press coverage of recent UBC financial difficulties has thrown a cloud of suspicion on Grant's character and integrity. "His statement to me says that he assumes full responsibility for whatever mismanagement the investigation may reveal, and that he will return as soon as possible to report to the investigation committee. FULL RESPONSIBILITY "Both Paul Plant and myself can unhesitatingly say that there is no suspicion in anyone's mind here that there was any dishonesty in the administration of last year's student affairs, but that on the contrary tlie job cost Grant many sacrifices in money, time, academic record, and personal health. REGRET IMPLICATIONS "We deeply regret the implications cast, and sincerely hope that this statement, and the later reports to be issued, may partially undo the harm done. "Wo are officially accrediting Grant as delegate to the ISS Conference in Toronto, where we know he and Cliff Greer will again lead the way for Canadian University .students." Swanson Ends Campus UN Week Final event of United Nations week at UBC will be an address by Reverend Dean Cecil Swanson today at 12:30 p.m. in Arts 100. The rector of Vancouver's Christ Church Cathedral will speak on the future of the UN. 9f, ?p jf. The student Liberal Club will present the Honorable James Gray Turg- ecn, Vancouver's own senator, in an address on "Immigration" in Aggie 100, Monday at 12:30 p.m. •*• *n v Christian Science organization will meet today in Arts 103 at 12:30 p.m. Money Woes Hit Editor Of Yearbook No Extra Copies For Latecomers Like most other people oh the campus today, Totem editor Dick Blockberger is worried about money. No matter which way they figure it, the editors of the Totem find themselves short of the sum needed to produce even a highly condensed yearbook. SUBSCRIPTIONS SHORT Basic reason for this shortage, ox- plained Blockberger, is the fact that only 1000 students have subscribed to this year's edition, and another 2000 subscriptions are needed before the yearbook can break even. Average sales in the past have always been well over the 4000 mark, but this year subscriptions have dropped sharply, NO EXTRAS In a sharp break with previous policy, the Totem editor has announced that no extra copies of the annual will be printed this year, and thus it will be impossible for anyone who hasn't placed an advance order to purchase a book. FREE DANCE TICKETS FOR PRINCESSES Princess candidates who wish to attend thc Homecoming dance in the Armory Saturday night should pick up their tickets for the affair at the AMS office, Homecoming officials stated. High times are in store for graduates now flocking back to the campus for Homecoming weekend. Gala weekend will get underway Saturday afternoon when College of Idaho arrives for the football event of the year. During the game Patsy Jordan is<$>~ — _ tc be crowned Homecoming Thunderbird princess. Following crowning ceremonies Chief Billy Scow, president of (lie Native Brotherhood of British Col- timbia v/ill make formal presentation of the Thunderbird totem pole, gift of last year's graduating class.

Grads will go direct from there to the dance in the Armory. SIX DEGREES More than a thousand graduates arrived Wednesday for colorful Convocation ceremonies in which Dr. Kaye Lamb and six other prominent Canadians and one American received honorary degrees of Doctor of Laws.

Due to space limitations the general public cannot be admitted. No Blame For UN In Great Power Split UN must not be blamed for failure to stop the East-West split because it was never designed to stop any big power split, Don Lanskail told Parli- imentary Forum, Thursday. "At the time of UN's inception at San Francisco there was complete Mac Atkinson, prime minister, con- so recently victorious in the German and Japanese wars," he said. "Accordingly UN was built on the expectation that harmony would continue. The fact that it hasn't continued is bound to impair UN's effectiveness to a tremendous extent but that does not mean that UN has failed in its original goal insofar as its charter will permit," Lanskail, leader of the opposition continued. harmony between the great powers tended that since the prime function of any international order was to promote harmony and good will among nations and to assist Hhe world to an orderly progress towards world gov- eminent UN must be held responsible for all the conflicts now taking place. "At tlie close of the late war we all had every hope for world peace for all time but now we go in fear and trembling of an atomic war," he said. "Surely this is sufficient proof that UN has failed." Lanskail replied that "there are many factors and many rights Involved and UN cannot decide them overnight. In the meantime UN is attempting to maintain the peace." The debate will be broadcast from a recording over CJOR Sunday at 5:30 p.m. Blessed Event Jet-Jockey School Opens On Campus For Veterans UBC is opening a school for jet-jockeys.

Eric Sherlock, Vampire pilot himsel Heroic lo Aid Rats Multiply In Blood Cure By DICK TOYNBEE Don't call anybody a rat again. Rats are heroes. Rats are being scientifically bred for the benefit of mankind. Recently a blessed event took place in the basement of the Applied Science building as a litter of new baby rats came into Ihe world to aid man in his fight against disease. SPECIAL TYPES Unlike the rats which might bo found in the basements of olhei university buildings, these are very special Vypes. They are being .scientifically bred. Ray Nixon and Jim Salter are using the rodents in special tests to produce a condition of experimental hypertension, or in layman's terms, high blood pressure. THESES WORK The two graduate sludents have been doing theses work in the field for i'he past two years. They plan to continue their experiments untg they produce an artificial condition of high blood pressure and then will attempt to discover a successful cure. MANKILLER High blood pressure is one of the greatest mankillers on this continent, the students say, Each year more than 600,000 people die as a direct or indirect result, of it. Willi the help of a few newborn white rats, the students hope to effect a cure. with hundreds ■-•redit. Enlistment centre for both schemes s located in the Armories, in place of the Book Exchange.

No aspect ot human life ha.s .seemed unaltered. In times like these the signs and .symbols which have guided the lives of men for centuries suddenly become unreliable and obscure. This is the opportunity of the false prophet. Systems of, ordered thought usually have their own means of judging nonsense. But in the absence of the accepted, and objective, standards no fallacy .so ludicrous, no falsehood so fantastic but has its devotees; and cranks and charlatons pullulate like flies on a midden. We are trougled, it has been said, not so much by the loss of the old faith, but by a multiplicity of new beliefs. Graduates Read these Stories, Ymm A -4> Trek Begins March For Grads, Students Spark 72 Homecoming § E i Graduates visiting the campus for Homecoming today and Saturday will find memories jogged by those nostalgic., stories reprinted from the pages o the Ubyssey. Idiosyncracics of college life ,the frivolity and. the youthful exuberance of undergraduates are traced through the pages of UBC's irreverent student paper, Yesterday's stories will be of interest to the under- gradsuates as well. Where will men turn for the truth? They might, as Ira Dilworth told his Congregation audience Wednesday, learn to ap- pioach the problems of the world with compassion, with a .sense of moral humdily. Thoy might also, as Mr. Dilworth wisely pointed out, ask their universities to lead them toward a better sense of faith, a deeper feeling for values, and a centrality of purpose all 1)ilgr in human thdltght. For if a university is anything, il. is, in the words of thc groat Cardinal Newman, "an assemblage of learned men, zealous for their familiar intercourse and for the sake of intellectual peace, to adjust together the claims and relations of their respective subjects of invesigation." May our universiies keep those lamps burning.

HIGHER EDUCATION NOW REALLY HIGH FOR UBC Higher education is really high nowadays. A glance at fees of 1925 will prove thc point. First term $50; second term, $50.

They have gotten in1/) a rut of saddle shoes, baggy sweaters, and soiled kerchiefs. When and if some trend is accepted, it will appear in the most exaggerated forrn. I am thinking here particularly of the immense flare- back! coats (when thrown over the bgekj of, a chair), or the "popular" day skirt length 8 to 10 inches from the ground.. Nowhere has any fashion authority ever mentioned skirts ;X. thjis, length for day wear, let alone campus wear. 'H \\ y (/if Page 3 / ' \\,.0*$*?aX 'Sfe * # True, there is the small handful of girls who may be considered "fashion conscious." .They are always noticed, not for their exaggerations. but for the wisdom and understanding they apply to fashions for themselves. Fashions chesen not only with their clothes budget in mind, but also with the knowledge of their own figures, their own good and bad points, and of course with the current , styles. This year, more than ever before. fashion puts it up to you—giving you the choice. Are there no shoes more conjfprtable than the saddle shoe? No sweater as "attractive" as that well-worn sloppy joe? And why not helmets and hoods instead of those sad, tired kerchiefs. "Campus Favorites! Apparently the majority of college men are expert in evaluating value in shirts. For a survey made recently in sixteen leading Canadian colleges across the country shows that *College Men prefer Arrow shirts far above other makes. And there are good reasons for this strong show of campus favoritism. Arrow shirts are the only shirts with the perfect, fitting Arrow collar.

Look for the Arrow label at your Arrow dealer's, look for the Arrow Trade Mark ARROW SHIRTS TIES • HANDKERCHIEFS * V # Let us see on our campus—sway coats controlled by the slimncss of a belt^ stoles that hug your shoulders, turned into scarves out of doors; shoes that look better with every coat of polish; gloves or mitts instead of blue hands; and please—soft colors in lipstick and nail polish. In short, wake up to the countless potentialities that fashion has waiting for YOU.

Such is the annual Homecoming Basketball game to be played this Saturday night. At present the 'Birds are busy ironing out some of the faults that were made apparent by the series between UBC and Port Alberni Athletics last weekend. UBC lost the second of the two games by a four point margin. NEW ADDITION To the list of twelve players named to the 'Birds last week, which included six returning cagers, three ex- Chiefs, and three starry freshmen, another name has been added. It is that of young Pete Walker who played with the Chief team in the Senior A loop last year. Providing no injuries mar the smoothness of pre-season workouts for the 'Birds, the starting line-up . this Saturday will probably be Reid Mitchell and Bob Boyes at guard, Nev Munroe and Jimmy McLean (the boy with that' smile while he plays) at forward, and long John Forsyth in the centre slot. IMPRESSIVE TEAM For this, the third annual Grad- Bird game, the grads will be bringing an impressive team to the campus. The students have made a clean sweep of all previous games and the Grads will be trying to walk off with their first win this Saturday. Last year, the 'Birds managed to pull one out of the fire by forcing the game into overtime and then keeping the fans on t'he edge of their seats' by taking a small one point lead and winning the tilt. The test of experience (a nice way of saying age) versus youth will feature many prominent graduates of UBC. FORMER STARS The squad, under the watchful eye of Ralph (Hunk) Henderson, will include such former stars as Ron Weber, Harry Kermode, Bobby Haas, Bobby Scarr. and Sandy Robertson. UBC's Graduate Manager of Athletics, Ole Bakken, v/ill be in strip for the affair as will be Harry Franklin, Brucl Matheson, and Rami Rlatli- isson. Students will also have an opportunity to see the Director of Physical Education at UBC. in action when Bob Osborne takes the floor for the glory of thc grad team. Also rctmuin?' for th.1 h-e.^ i'nea- will be Jimmy Bard.gey, v.-in h been out of active participation for some time with a head injury. Tickets for both the afternoon grid fixture and the evening Grad-Bird hoop tiff are now on sale in the of- fice of the Graduate Manager of Athletics, Ole Bakken.

Osborne, head of the Department of Physical Education at UBC, when he addresses the Vancouver Institute, October HO at 8:15 p.m. in the Physics Buildinp This is t'he third in the autumn series of addresses by authorities in various academic and industrial fields. Professor Osborne travelled to England with the Canadian Olympic Basketball team. He has figured prominently in the training of several of UBC's championship Thunderbird teams. UBC PROFESSOR TO HOLD OPEN HOUSE FOR GRADS Professor and Mrs. H. F, Soward will hold open house this evening to more than 12a graduates of the class of '28. This includes all four faculties of that day--Arts, Science, Agriculture and Nursing. The informal reunion is a part of the general activity marking UBC's j annual Homecoming weekend, It marks the twentieth graduation anniversary for Professor Soward's guests, who will ai'tcnd with their husbands and wives. The purpose of Ihe soiree is to compare progress notes on post-grad- uale activities, and families acquired during the long interval.

OP TILTS Gridsfers Out For Repeat Win !n Traditional Grid Battle If history lives up to its repetitive reputation a lot of UBC grads will he very happy tomorrow. For it was on Homecoming day just one year ago that the football Thunderbirds chalked up their first and, so far, only American grid win. The 'Birds are just about due for a3> win. So far this season they have steadily improved. Starting Vheir home stand with a terrific whitewashing at the hands of WWC they went en to score their first major against Willamette and last weekend they had a tie with Whitman. TWO VICTORIES But whatever the outcome this Saturday, UBC will know that it has been in a football game. The Coyotes of College of Idaho have already picked up two victories in Conference play this season. Pacific College, winners over UBC by a lop-sided score, fell victims to the onr-ushing Coyotes, as did Linfield. Only the Conference champ ion Willamette squad has managed to stop them. The potato-staters' attack features a pair of top-notch ground gainers in the persons of Tom Winbigler and Glen Ward. These two backs lead the Conference in ground-gained-per- play average. BAD KNEE The 'Birds will go into action minus the services of starry back Bob Brewer, who picked up a bad knee in the Whitman contest. Another stalwart who will watch the Homecoming proceedings from the bench is Pete Trim. Trim took an illegal clip in the Whitman game and had to be helped from the field. UBC Braves, Chiefs Split In City Senior A Debut The brand new UJBC Braves last night broke into the Senior A basketball lague by defeating Chilliwack 46-27, while their senior brothers, the Chiefs, fell before the powerful Dominion champion Clover Leafs, 76-30. Braves went all out from the opening whistle to chalk up victory, out- scoring the Chilliwack club in three out of four periods. Except for one short but strong rally in the third quarter, the Valley five were never a threat to the Varsity club. At half time, the Braves already had the game on ice, with a score of 25-10, but just to make it more convincing, they potted in 16 points to Chilliwack's 6 in the final canto. High scorers for the UBC team were Denny Wotherspoon with high 9 points followed closely by Bill Fraser and Don Swen.son with 8 and 6 tallies respectively. Thc luckless Chief's fared exactly the opposite to tlie Braves, being out- giasved and out-played tho entire game. Tho UBC team, still unused lo each others style, have as yet not devolved into an efficient machine, a<> tho Dominion Champs were able ic walk all over the locals, .sinking ever twit o the amount of points in i very period. The half lime score ot 45-22 shoves exaetly how the play had been going up till that time, Returned Stars Strengthen Rugger Line-up Varsity ruggerman will be gunnning for their fifth straight win in the Miller Cup series when they battle Rowing Club this Saturday.
