'VARSITY AT TOP OF LEAGUE
Triumphs Over
Centrals By A
Score of 14-0
The fondest hopes of the supporters
of the University Rugby team were
fully realized on Saturday afternoon,
when U.B.C. defeated the Centrals. The
game was the crucial point of the whole
season, and by her victory the 'Varsity
has practically clinched her hold on the
championship. Every team in the league
has now fallen before the efforts of Art
Lord and his husky confreres.
When the teams lined up at 3.15 Saturday afternoon there were well over
4,000 spectators spread around the oval
at Brockton Point, and not the least
conspicuous of these were the one thousand two hundred and eleven University
students, who were packed on the gaily-
decorated truck and trailer which noisily
romped its way around the track.
The Centrals kicked off and made a
temporary gain, but the University superiority began to be demonstrated.
And right here we must commend the
'Varsity forwards. In the previous
games, the front line has been the weak
spot in Blue and Gold play; but last
Saturday the much-touted Central forward line was helpless before the tackling, packing and kicking
of the University. The
tackling of both teams
was splendid; but the way
Art Lord and Howard
James, especially, upset
their opponents' rushes
was a delight to watch.
The first score of the
game came about 12 minutes after the start of
play, when, after a pretty
piece of combination,
Heyland dragged a Central tackle over the line.
Gwyther, who was playing in hard luck all afternoon, failed to convert.
'Varsity 3, Centrals 0.
It was only eight minutes later that the 'Varsity three-quarters got
started. Finally, about 20
yards from touch, "Lou"

U.B.C. Students Are
Arrested by Police
BUT ARE RELEASED ON PROMISING TO BUY BONDS
Just about eight o'clock on Saturday-
night a howling mob of savages, in
variegated costumes of blue and gold,
was turned loose on the public, with the
apparent object of frightening as many
as possible into buying Victory Bonds.
The parade, as it proceeded down the
street, looked very spectacular, led by
a three-ton truck and trailer carrying
a jazz-band and a hundred torch-bearers, the Freshies toddling along in the
rear. The first outburst of 'Varsity
"pep" occurred at Granville and Rob-
son, where the traffic was blocked until
"Kitsilano" and "Engineers" were rendered. A few minutes later the halls of
the Hotel Vancouver were resounding
with the well-known yells.
After more noise had been produced
at the Post Office, a novel advertising
stunt was staged at Cambie sueet. The
effigy of "A. Skinflint, Tighter Than a
Clam With the Lockjaw," who
"Wouldn't Buy a Bond," was condemned
by the crowd and lynched forthwith.

U.B.C. Should
Send Full Quota
FUNDS NEEDED FOR THOSE WHO
ATTEND STUDENT CONVENTION AT DES MOINES
THESE ARE THE BOYS WHO PUT THE UNIVERSITY AT THE TOP
OF THE LEAGUE
"Send British Columbia's full quota
to this convention" was the advice of
both President Klinck and Captain A.
S. C. Trivett, who addressed the mass
meeting of students held last Friday to
consider the proposal to send delegates
to the international student convention
which will take place in Des Moines in
December. Dr. Todd, the honorary
president of the Y. M. C. A., was chairman.
In his address, President Klinck
spoke of the good which resulted from
these student conferences, and declared that the University of B. C.
should come into contact with the men
and women of other colleges. He
urged the 'Varsity tr^ send men and
women who would bring back the most
lasting good, and who could impart to
the other students the inspiration
gained.
Captain A. S. C. Trivett, a student
Y. M. C. A. secretary, who has visited
our college on other occasions, told of
the work which the convention will accomplish.
He declared that the
greatest men of the
world will address this
convention, and that the
University of B. C. could
not afford to miss this
opportunity.
After these addresses,
Mr. Wilson Coates moved
that the University attempt to raise sufficient
funds to send its full
quota. This consists of
seven men, four women,
and three faculty members. The motion carried
unanimously.
The drive for these
funds is now on and
students are urged to
give what little they
can. THE UBYSSEY

BISHOP CONDUCTS
MEMORIAL SERVICE
"Whosoever shall seek to save his life
shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose
his life shall preserve it." Upon this
text the Rt. Rev. A. U. de Pencier,
Bishop of New Westminster, preached
a moving sermon in Christ Church on
Sunday evening at the memorial service
for University students who fell in the
war.
Bishop de Pencier sought to answer
two questions which the war has
brought forward. "Why does God permit this death and suffering?" This is
the question of the cross, and if any
religion fails to answer it, that religion
is a sham. Human prepress has always
been made through the suffering of the
innocent. The world's greatest men
have been men of sufferings more than
the ordinary.
The second question is, "Are we living on inherited faith, or are we really
willing to give all we possess to serve
our fellows?" This, declared the Bishop,
our dead have amply proved. The Empire's response to the call of duty
showed that our faith had followed our
flag all around the world,—that the
generation had been brought up on the
great unselfish teachings of the bible.
He quoted a vow made by a thousand
soldiers on the eve of battle, in memory
of their fellows: "I will love the things
for which they died and hate the things
that brought them to their death," He
exhorted his hearers to take the same
vow to promote loyalty to the Empire
and the cross, to hate wrong and impurity, covetousness and ambition for
power. Deeds are more than words, but
character is greater than all, so we must
help one another to build the character
of the future after the ideals for which
our men have died.
Before his sermon Bishop de Pencier
read the honour roll of the University.
The service was conducted by Rev.
C. C. Owen and Rev. W. W. Craig.
SONNET
Dedicated to the Senior Who Wishes to
Clear the Freshmen Off the Sidewalks
With haughty air and dignity of mien
The Senior views the Freshies as they
pass—■
The Freshies greener than the verdant
grass—■
No serious crime in being young, I ween;
Yet how can he preserve a brow serene,
When Freshmen form a great obstructive
mass
And fill the doorways with the First Year
class,
What time the Fourth Year struts upon the
scene?
And this is what the humble Freshmen say
Whene'er they mention Seniors and their
way
Of claiming all the sidewalk and the
street—
" 'Tis kindly meant, O brothers, for. ye know
Ye run grave risk where these your Seniors
go:
How shall ye rise, if trampled by such
Feet?"
