Administration uses $100,000 gift as part of own winter arena grant By PAT HORROBIN Senator H. M. Molson and his brother Thomas of the Molson brewing company have donated $100,000 towards the construction of a winter sports arena at UBC. But, according to administration officials, the grant will make no difference to the total value of the arena, which has been set at $500,000. The $100,000 will merely be used as part of the administration's pledge, The Ubyssey learned Wednesday. When announced in mid-December of last year, the private gift was assumed to be a no- strings addition to the $250,000 already pledged by the University and the equal sum promised by the student body. This would have brought the fund up to $600,000. However, Dean E. D. Mac- Phee said: "The $100,000 was merely earmarked in respect of the wishes of the donor." The Molson money does not represent, for the arena, any tangible increase, Dean MacPhee admitted. The university began plans a year ago with the $500,000 promised and with "no inkling of the Senator's gift". But Phillips, athletic director, appeared taken aback when the rumour of the sizeable arena- fund cut was continued by The Ubyssey. He said it was out of his hands, being purely a matter of finance. I Earlier P h il 1 i p s, the new I arena's activities director, had I declined to say personally if it! was possible to get a first-class building with the then-assumed $600,000 fund. "The architects say it is," he offered as answer. The only thing certain about the arena today is the money said to be coming its way. No plans will be forwarded to student council for Monday's meeting as hoped for.

The Ubyssey will share the trophy with the Varsity of the University of Toronto, which tied for first place in the judging. Judges were B: T. Richardson, of the Toronto Telegram and Andrew Snaddon, of the Calgary Herald. TOP MARKS In scoring for the award, the Ubyssey received top marks for page layout and sports reporti- ing. One judge gave the paper top marks for its news reporting. The Ubyssey came close to winning the trophy in 1953 when two of three judges chose the paper as best in Canada, but a mailing mix-up resulted in the third judge not scoring the paper. Said editor Roger McAfee:' "Despite the interference we have had on occasion from gov: ernmental bodies, we have been able to formulate a sound newspaper policy."

See ROGER McAFEE. For MacKenzie residence Fort Camp protests playing field loss Fort Camp doesn't want to sacrifice its playing field for retiring president Dr. Norman MacKenzie's residence. And the committee of residence dons and faculty advisors agree that the residence should be built elsewhere. A spokesman for Fort Camp Council said, "If the residence is built there, every time we kick a convert, "we'll have to enter the president's garden for tea before we retrieve the ball." A permanent home on campus for retired presidents was the idea^of Dr. Leon Koerner who heard of a similar plan at Princeton University. The playing field where it is planned the residence will be built is situated north of the Home Management house on Marine Drive. The building of the house, previously a campus secret, See picture, page 4 was to have started during the Christmas holidays. This would have established "possession rights" on the playing field with as little publicity as possible. However, late last term, building stakes were discovered by Fort Camp residents who notified Fort Camp Council. The council started an investigation. Prior to the discovery, Housing Director, John Harr, and the Information Office denied knowledge of the project. Councillors said they fail to see that the loss of their playing field is necesssary. "The nearest playing field is behind the stadium, ten to fifteen minutes from camp," said one Fort Camp spokesman. "The loss of our playing field may result in an excess of panty-raids in the spring." The building of the house will be financed by the Leon and Thea Koerner Foundation. Stakes for a second building, rumoured to be a "Chancellory", have been found in the common block area. Neither Buildings and Grounds nor the Information Office will comment on the reason for the new stakes.

Keeping with policy In keeping with Ubyssey policy of giving credit where it is due, the editor-in-chief of The Ubyssey would like to thank the editors and staffers who made our victory in this year's Southam Trophy Competition possible. For more than two years we have been working to bring this campus the best newspaper possible. In some ways we have failed, but in most ways we feel we have succeeded. The winning of the Southam Trophy for general newspaper excellence is, we feel, a vote of confidence in what we have been trying to do. This vote comes from some of Canada's most successful and competent newspaper men — men who know what they are talking about. We have been lacking in certain areas of our coverage. Feature material has been scanty and some editorials have lacked the polish and research, they could have had. However, we always looked on our jobs as dispensing news and hav6 treatid H *s the most important aspect of our operation. UnlftriufiitfeiyV sf>ace does not permit us to print all the news, but we have dene our best.

Joe Much is Sports Editor of the Capital-Journal, and was in Vancouver covering the football game between the Willamette University Bearcats and ihe UBC Thunderbirds. "College sports, they say, are lagging pitifully in the race for space in California journals. A surfeit of professional productions has been the bane of collegiate impresarios the length and breadth of the Golden State these days. But, take it from me, they don't know what apathy can be until they've seen the Canadian Press at work. Take the case of the University of British Columbia, for example. Here is an institution of 13,000 undergraduates and some 700 " pedagogues. It conducts a vigorous varied and entertaining athletic programme ranging from grass hockey to curling to fair country football. The UBC Thunderbirds, obliged to master the intricacies of both Canadian and American style football in order to fill a schedule, had just mopped up the Western Canada Conference on the occasion of Willamett's visit last S a t u r d ay. Coach Frank Gnup's hardy lads had won four, lost two games to stateside squads, and tied one. They operated an imaginative offense described by Gnup as "halfway between a slingshot and a shotgun", and numbered some highly adept athletes in their number. What's more, every last one of the Thunderbirds is a native Canuck in contrast to Dominion pro teams laced almost exclusively with Yankee sinew. And Vancouver press could hardly care less. ODE TO A BARE FOOT On the day before the UBC- Williamette contest, Vancouver's afternoon journal tucked away its advance story at the bottom of the second sports page. Substantially more space and display was devoted to an upcoming Monday game of so- called junior football, a sort of semi-professional thing, involving a local team known as the Meralomas. On game day, the morning paper filled nearly three sports pages before finding room to mention the afternoon's collegiate offering. In both cases, stories were hinged on the relatively insignificant intelligence that WU's Tommy Lee kicked "converts" sans shoes. The impression was left that were Lee afflicted with a knotted shoelace, the game wouldn't be worth watching. Parenthetically, the tough- toed Hawaiian did not disappoint. He guided five of six tries through the sticks and successfully warded off frostbite. CAMPUS SPECTACULAR Let it be said for the Canadians that they can be just as casual about their college football as the local press. They stayed home in droves. A city of some half-million souls produced fewer than 1,000 customers for the contest. Many of them wandered away once UBC had established itself as a likely loser. Those who remained behaved much in the manner of small children at a Saturday morning moyie. They roundly booed the Bearcats, who emerged from their cubicle after intermission as established villains of the piece. And they lionized the officials, who apprehended and punished our n'er-do-wells with astonishing frequency. Nor did the university itself regard this extra-curricular and inter-American reationship as anything meriting exclusivity. In fact, on the same several acres in the middle of an extensive campus, four other contests were competing vigorously and simultaneously for attention. From a vantage point in the press box, one could watch snatches of a "rugger match to the east, a soccer game to the north and two grass hockey scrambles to the west. It was JACK ORNSTEIN I've rung the new year in by pulling a cord to ring the bell to summon my nurse in the hospital. And I've smoked and reflected my way through several other new year's eves in such places as: the Winnipeg peg YMCA—alone: the kitchen at home—dateless: the den at home — pie-eyed and dateless: unpacking at home—dateless, un-pie-eyed and alone . . . God! But this new year's eve was going to be different. I was determined to get a date and go to a party and get pie-eyed and kiss in the new year. So here's what happened. I'd heard that A and B (a married couple — initials changed to avoid a lawsuit) were going to have an open (a wide open) party. Being civilized I thought it only proper to ask the host if he'd mind if myself and date came to his 'open' party. I backed away blushing and bowing as he 1) failed to recognize me, 2) informed me that "it's only a small gathering of FRIENDS" and 3) looked through, behind and above me but not at me— or so it seemed. Well, there are lots of parties on New Year's Eve so I gave it up with a shrug of the shoulder. I made the mistake, how ever, of telling Lafty (who always needs a shave) about the above little incident. Now Lafty is a great guy and he thinks I am too so HE goes to A and B and tells them I'm a great guy and they should welcome me. He wastes no time in phoning me and assuring me that everything's all fixed up and I should go to A and B's new year's party and I'd be welcome and Happy New Year Jack in case I shouldn't see you, etc. etc. Comes new year's eve. Susan, my lucky date, and I and Seagrams and Adams (we doubled) plow into A and B's and lo and behold . . . the party IS only a small gathering of friends ... so I mumble inanities about Lafty (that idiot!) etc., I try to open the door behind me with my left hipbone and I feel like one of those pennies that's been run over by a train ... a big black one. But this story has a happy ending. Judy (who lives above A and B) opened those wonderful arms of hers and we all welcomed the new year with Italian folk songs and a delicious pizza, and a kiss. Anyone knowing the whereabouts of a yolt named Lafty— Happy New Year! something of a sports spectacular with a traveling audience. It can be report-ed here, however, that if newspapers are uniformly nonchalant about UBC football, the game has been discovered by the great Cyclopean monster. This contest was filmed by television cameras for replay Sunday afternoon for parlor fans. It would require more research than permitted in a weekend visit to root out the- reasons for press and public apathy to college football. Certainly Vancouver and Canada generally are not unmoved by the fall spectacle, Professional teams of Yankee flavor are bobbing along sol- vently. Other sports are flour-' ishing north of the border before a vivacious populace. The press is otherwise alive and diligent in its pursuit of sports coverage. The point here is merely that California collegiates can take -> heart. After all, they're not bucking rugger, grass hockey, junior football and curling. Letters 'Trapped' Editor, *" The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: On this, the first day of the '62 final term, I would like to take the opportunity of wishing all students who were caught - in the radar trap this morning on Marine Drive, a very Happy New Year. $25 shorter, D. A. CAMERON Gutter-tramp Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: If the person who has been writing lewd comments on the walls of the Brock would make himself known to me, I would take great pleasure in making sure that he is unable to do it again. If he does not have the guts, then I would appreciate it if he would stop acting like the gutter-tramp he must be. R. F. Traffic hazard Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: The University Gates at 10th and Blanca are a traffic hazard. Cars travelling East on University Boulevard cannot see vehicles entering 10th from either side of Blanca. Likewise cars coming off Blanca in either direction cannot see vehicles travelling eastward on University Boulevard. I realize that this is a touchy poblem considering the sentiment and history attached to the gates. But no matter what sentiment may be attached to these landmarks it is not worth endangering the lives of students and citizens of the area. Since the speed limit has been increased to 35 m.p.h. on the Boulevard it further increases the possiblity of accidents oc- curing at this particular intersection because of the gates. I do not propose destruction of these historical markers but appropriate signs or signals providing for greater safety of the motorist. GERRY KOER .Thursday, January 4, 1962 THE UBYSSEY Page 3 From Page 1 Sports arena grant east and it's impossible," said Phillips. The architect's plans have already been returned to be redrawn for their first time. "We may send them back four or five times," said MacPhee, dean of administrative and financial affairs. "There are a lot of committees to go through — a maze of committees." The plot set aside for the arena is still undecided. Right next to the stadium is preferred but, said Phillips, a steep slope is there that would have to be built up. "The architects recommend it being right by the gymnasium. It's flat there." Phillips would like to see sauash and handball courts in addition to the ice rink and eight curling sheets. "But," he said, "the width of the building would have to be raised." "A n d so would the price," he added, sadly. Thinking of the one-half of a badly cramped rugger and soccer field to be taken away by the Queen's Journal prints open letter KINGSTON (CUP) — The editors of the Queen's Journal have proposed that students should consult with the university administration and give their assessment of professors. They also asKed the Queen's administration to consider having three terms in every year, so that students and staff could stagger their vacations and keep the university's facilities in use all year. The proposals were contained in a front-page editorial in the form of an open letter to the Principal. The letter was a response to the address given by Dr. James A. Corry on the occasion of his installation as Principal of Queen's. Taking up Dr. Corry's argument that the student must have a standpoint from, which to take his bearings, the Journal called on professors to make clear their opinions on their subjects. "This is the only method which can encourage students to have opinions of their own," the editorial said. ''The cult of agnosticism, of the completely open mind, tends to assimilate mind to an electronic memory- blank." ] new arena, he was doleful. "I ! could cry," he mourned. i Albert L a i t h w a i te, rugby I coach, was less sentimental and I more practical.. "The rugger sit- | uation has been critical for some time, anyway. And now we have the promise of one cow barn and a field at the Woolfson grounds and another field past the cow sheds. "Besides," he said critically, "the rugger field we have now leaks." Whenever it rains, Laithwaite's rugger and soccer squads have to evacuate. ^'Our first rugby game comes up this Saturday and we can't practice anywhere." Better to cover the old field with ice and gain some new well-drained ones in exchange. UN recruits teachers The United Nations training center at the University has announced that the external aid office of. Canada's federal government are recruiting 100 Canadian teachers to serve in Asia and Africa beginning in September, 1962. The principal need is for teachers of education (teacher trainers) in mathematics and the sciences and for classroom teachers in the same subjects, for vocational and trade subjects, and for French and English as a foreign language. Those selected will be paid their Canadian salary plus a post allowance and a bonus for each year of service.

The national president acts as an executive director for the press union and supplies member papers with news releases on activities at other university campuses. Dave Hill, managing editor of the Queen's Journal, Kingston, nominated McAfee for the position. The Fulcrum, Ottawa, nominated Frank Mazari of University of Toronto to contend the post, but he later declined because of "previous * committments." Mazari will serve as National Secretary next year. Denis de Believal, Editor-in-chief of Le Carabin, is the new National vice-president.

Three groups, including Webb and Knapp (Canada) Ltd., the builders of the Brentwood Shopping Centre, are formulating plans for the development. E. R. Loftus, assistant vice- president of Webb and Knapp, refused to discuss the matter with The Ubyssey. "Any statement will have to come from Lands and Forests Minister Ray Williston," he said. PREVIOUS REPORT The development would be in the form of a townsite. A report, prepared in 1956 by Dr. David B. Turner, foresaw the development of a $20 million extensive residential area. It was to contain over 3,000 single-home lots, 34 apartment blocks, five churches, four elementary schools, a 109-acre industrial area, a golf course and park land. The Endowment Lands are controlled by the Department of Lands, not by the university. "The only connection any development will have with the university is a mutual use of certain roads and services," Dean E. D. McPhee, dean of Administrative Affairs said. LEASES ADVOCATED Williston has said that any " development plans must be in accordance with the 1956 Turner report, which advocated the disposal of land in 99-year leases. It was estimated these leases would bring the university between $2.5 million and $3 million a year in revenue. "The university has not been thinking of these finances, and any discussion of them would have to be negotiated between the board of governors and the provincial government," Dean McPhee said. "But the university would perhaps receive the payments as a' substitute for a provincial grant," he said. "The university has received no money from the Endowment Lands so far," The Endowment Land area is 1,400 acres. "We have 1 000 acres here at the university," Dean McPhee said. "What's put up on the outside of our land, we can only trust others to use good judgment." Interest increases in overseas aid service By Canadian University Press OTTAWA — Interest in service overseas appears to be growing among Canadian students and the main focus for this interest is the Canadian University Service Overseas program. Formed last June at the National Conference of Canadian Universities and Colleges annual meeting in Montreal, CUSO was actually on planning boards before that time. Basically, CUSO is a means whereby Canadian graduates work in a foreign country helping to develop its potential and developing their own potential as mature citizens. BENEFITS LONG RANGE— For the student interested in an immediate well-paying job, CUSO is not the means to prosperity, but its long range benefits are immense. There are four wage plans, the conditions of which are dependent on the country of service and the posi- Applicants for CUSO positions must be over 21 years of age. Canadian citizens by birth or naturalization, and be witling to serve overseas for at least two years. Candidates should preferably have an honors degree. "In addition to intellectual ability," explained the spokesman, "candidates must possess emotional maturity, initiative, resourcefulness, and be able to adapt themselves to new, unfamiliar and sometimes difficult environments. They must be willing to regard their overseas assignments as primarily a learning experience, and have the capacity to conduct themselves with humility, understanding and restraint."

The editorial brought cries of rage from university Conservatives and members of both the campus Liberals and Conservatives charged the editorial was slanted, inaccurate and ill-timed. In addition, the photography staff of the paper resigned because the editorial did not coincide with their political views.

Fraser graduated last year. He is writing a series of articles far the Ubyssey). BERLIN — Sitting in the warm living room of a friendly German household it is difficult to remember exactly the chill that gripped both mind and body in East Berlin. Two days ago my five companions and I passed through "Check Point Chariie" into the German Democratic Republic We stepped rather carefully between the armed guards, wound our way past the tank , traps, and then through the now famous six foot thick wall • sepafatng the two Germanys. Our passports were taken ' from us and we were checked ' for East German money in a stuffy little room crowded with . officials. In a few moments our" passports were returned and we were allowed to wander into the East Zone. • • • On both sides of the border are many old bombed-out buildings that lend the area a note of desolation. This atmosphere, which begins in the West Zone only as one approaches the border, was maintained well into the East Zone and never really lost throughout our visit. We proceeded straight down FriedrlchstraSse to'dne of the banks authorized to give for- v eign exchange. Dirty and without decoration except for a picture of Lenin, it . was depressing for staff and customers alike. The "workers" reflected their sur roundings in appearance and in spirit. In rows behind cluttered tables girls slouched in oulky sweaters and heavy slacks. Nowhere was there the professional smoothness and organized elegance found in most Canadian banks. The exchange was carried out readily enough although several forms were required for each transaction. With legal money in our pockets we headed for a restaurant where we had an all too usual cheap and rather pasty meal. The only thing different from its western equivalent at our low budget prices was the coffee which, I heard rumored, doubled as tank fuel! The "decadent capitalistic" custom of tipping was not in evidence although the waiter did ask if we had any cigarettes. • * • Prevented from approaching the Brandenburg Gate we diverted our attention to a building housing a display of "Contenmporary Art" by four university prof essors • from the communist bloc countries. We paid the 12% cents entry to see a propaganda display more vicious and twisted than any our imaginations could have produced. In extremely clever caricature and on violently hostile posters the western world exploited and killed the world's poor and weak. Britain, America,- and Nazi Germany walked hand in" hand over innocents from German peasants to the American Negro!

What, however, did the 40 young school children think, the 14-year-old East Germans whose visits coincided with ours? They were too young to remember; teachers don't dare say too much; yet they were exposed to these virulent slogans and emotional appears and left for themselves to draw conclusions about their western neighbours. By comparison with these tactics how crude the concrete wall seemed and how trivial the armed guards. Before we left the display we casually mentioned to the woman at the ticket counter that the exhibits were all propaganda, not art. She looked uncomfortable, glanced sideways, and replied, "I know, but I'm not allowed to say anything." There were few signs of Christmas in East Berlin and those were pitiful indeed. • • • • One office table held a few sprigs of evergreen and strips of tinsel or the occasional trucker had a miniature tree oh his dashboard, but the colored lights and the festive air were completely missing. No streets were decorated here and no one piped carols onto the sidewalks from their place of business. There was on overt rejoicing here—it was against the rules! The West Berliners did not forget their alienated neighbors though, for on high buildings and on raised construction crane booms stood decorated trees which threw their light far into the East Zone. Their Christmas message of sympathy glowed a 24 hour defiance of the Godless regime across the wall. We had come to Berlin expecting the spectacular and the dangerous. We joked about ending up in Siberia and we secretly hoped for a flare-up at the border which we might observe. It was not a violent face that Communism presented to us but its dread and crushing spiritual poverty, its fear and restriction, its essence not its -methods. It was our first real contact with a totalitarian state and our fragmentary notions of life without freedom matured in the few hours of our exposure. The oppression mirrored in the faces of the citizens of East Berlin spoke far louder than events could do to. chill our memories. Schlich Memorial Award nets UBC forestry graduate $24 A UBC forestry graduate has been selected by the Canadian Institute of Forestry as the 1961 recipient of the annual Schlich Memorial Fund award. He is Robert A. M. McFar- lane, son of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh McFarlane, 1355 Renfrew, Vancouver. McFarlane, who received his bachelor of science in forestry degree from UBC this year, is currently in Pakistan on a resource survey for develop ment of a pulp mill by the engineering firm of Forestal International' Ltd. Interest from the fund is distributed annually thorugh forestry schools on Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. This year the forestry faculty at UBC was designated as the school to make the award.

Page 6 THE UBYSSEY Thursday, January 4, 1962 Library expansion hurt by dollar devaluation Devaluation of the Canadian dollar is hampering expansion of the University's library, according to acting librarian Dr. Sam Rothstein. Dr. Rothstein makes this observation in the annual report of the UBC librarian to the University senate. Canadian libraries once enjoyed an advantage of about five per cent in the purchase of books outside Canada, he says. With the devaluation of the dollar, purchasers are now at a disadvantage of nearly five per cent, he says. "The net result," Dr. Rothstein says, "is that we are now paying almost ten per cent more for imported books." LIBRARY GROWS . Despite this the book store at the UBC library reached 500,000 volumes in the past year, the report states. A total of 37,556 volume's were added to the library collection during the year ending August 31, 1961, as compared to 32,951 in the preceding year. These increases warrant no smugness, Dr. Rothstein writes, and the UBC library will be truly adequate only when it provides in large measure the materials needed for advanced study by its own faculty, and distinguished only when its resources attract scholars from other institutions. FUNDS STATIC Funds available to the librarj for the purchase of books held pretty well static, the report states, and more input is regular ly needed to produce the sam< output in a period of constantly rising book prices. Turning to the matter of staff, Dr. Rothstein says beginning professional salaries, once as good as any in Canada, have fallen behind those of Alberta and Toronto. The UBC library has never been able to fill its complement of professional positions and four were vacant in the past year. Division heads with long experience are now paid less than many high school teachers, Dr. Rothstein states, and he recommends that salaries for this key group should be reviewed and brought into line with their responsibilities. Nuclear disarmament ok d at U. of Western Ontario " LONDON (CUP) — Student Council of the University of Western Ontario has ratified the constitution of Combined Universities Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament Club on the campus. The action ended a long debate on the legitimacy of the CUCND, which included discussion of free love and crackpots. Paulette Silver, speaking for CUCND, said ratification of the constitution was merely recognition of the right of students to express their views on a topic currently vital to the nation. Student Mike Vaughan said it was time some radical ideas started circulating on campus but Tom Allen, publications commissioner, said some radical thoughts should not be connected with the univerity. USC president Mike Hamilton said that voting down the constitution would be preventing freedom of thought. Council approved the club's constitution by a vote of 15 to 5.

What's doing in Aluminum SMELTING? More—much more—than meets the eye: the technology of producing aluminum in our smelters is constantly changing. Talented engineers experiment with and develop new processes and design new technical controls. They are responsible for the transforming, plant distribution and rectification of electricity; the electrolysis of alumina by the Hall & Heroult process; the production of carbon electrodes and the casting of aluminum and its alloys. In addition they may be involved in project, maintenance and industrial engineering. Indeed—there's a lot doing in the five aluminum smelters we operate across Canada: At Arvida, Quebec: 373,000 tons installed capacity of aluminum ingot per year. At Isle Maligne, Quebec: 115,000 tons installed capacity of aluminum ingot per year. At Shawinigan, Quebec: 70,000 tons installed capacity of aluminum ingot per year.

' Thursday, Janudry 4, 1962 THE UBYSSEY Page 7 AH Stars topheavy with Birds Western Collegiate football champions UBC Thunderbirds continued their domination of the league to the 1961 all-star team. Thunderbirds placed 11 men on the team, picked by newsmen and broadcasters from the home towns of the three teams in the league. The backfield was led by UBC quarterback Barry Carkner who topped the league in passing and punting. Backing up Carkner were the league's leading rusher Dale West of Saskatchewan, UBC's Peter Black and Alberta's Ken Neilson and Ted Frechette. The front wall was anchored bv Bird captains, center Ray Towers, and tackle Jim Beck, both seasoned veterans. Also up front to add strength tc the line were Fred Sturrock ; at guard and end Dave Barker, both Birds. Alberta added two players to the line, Ron Marten- iuk at guard and Maury Van Vleit at end. The last slot was filled by Saskatchewan tackle Lome Dillanbough. Birds also dominated the defensive squad placing five men on the team. The brother combination of Roy and Al Bianco was given top rating along with ether Bird standouts Bruce Mc- Callum, Dave Lee, and Roy Shat- zko. Other players who received the honour included Ken Tids- bury, Mike Regu.'h, and Don Brock of Saskatchewan; and Jim . Christoff, Bill Zuk, Bill Sowa and Harry Fedun of Alberta. MtCALLUM, TERMS Two more hoopsters quit By RON KYDD UBC Thunderbirds, already suffering from lack of experience, lost two more veteran players over the holidays. Dune McCallum and Ed Ter- ris have quit the team. McCallum, a first-string guard last year, has been having a lot of trouble finding the hoop this season. Dune, who sported a 49.5 per cent field goal average in 60-61 got disgusted and turned in his strip after the team's U.S. trip. Terr is, who played with the Jayvees last year, felt he might get a little more playing time with the Harlem Nocturnes of the city Senior A league. Terris will join five other UBC students who have chosen to play in the Senior A league rather than for the 'Birds. * * it, Keith Hartley, Mike Potkon- jak, Bill McDonald, Gordon Betcher, and Ron Parker all left this year to join the New Westminster Bakers. McCallum has apparently not yet decided what his basketball future will be. Both McCallum and Terris are in fifth year education. FORMER UBC crew captain John Lecky, in England on a scholarship, may row for Cambridge in famed Oxford- Cambridge boat race in April. Trotter spectacle back Jan. 19-20 The world-famed Harlem Globetrotters return to UBC Jan. 19-20 with enough cast for a mob scene in Ben Hur. Accompanying the Globetrotters pill be Cab Calloway and his orchestra and v t h e Honolulu Surfriders basketball team, which will meet a local team each night for the two-night stand. 'Trotters face a senior city league team Jan. 19 with the Thunderbirds tackling the, Surfriders. The local teams switch plaees for the Jan. 20 game. lAJblfA&SUf SPORT MIKE HUNTER, Editor Birds soar in '64 Thunderbird gridders will move into big time competition in 1964 and '65. Birds will play a home-and- home series with Montana State of Missoula, Mont., which plays in the Rocky Mountain Conference. V Montana State played such teams as New Mexico, Idaho, Utah State, and Brigham Young this fall. Birds earlier this year turned down a similar series with Idaho State for financial reasons, Idaho wanted a $6,500 guarantee. Rugby Birds to fly south? By GLENN SCHULTZ UBC's rugby Birds are looking into the future and the U.S. for their rugby competition. UBC coach Albert Laithwaite Thunderbirds also lost two basketball games over the Christmas holidays, both to the University of Puget Sound. Last Friday the Birds were clobbered 77-52, while Thursday they lost by a much more respectable 62-53 margin. The taller, heavier, Loggers just wore the 'Birds into the floor. * * * This weekend UBC meets tough Seattle Pacific College team twice in Seattle. UBC coach Jack Pomfret said he hopes the younger players on the team will have the confidence necessary to give Seattle a hard fight. U of T approached The University of Toronto basketball team is 'interested in playing an exhibition series with UBC in Vancouver next fall. Athletic department officials hope to lure Toronto for the 1962 Totem Tournament in December. says there is talk of a proposal for a Pacific Coast College rugby hookup from B.C. to California in the near future. Possible teams would come from UBC, Western Washington, Oregon State, UCLA, USC, Stanford, and California and Victoria. Laithwaite however, feels that the World Cup competi tion should remain between UBC and California apart from the proposed league because it is an established tradition. U.S. EXHIBITIONS The Birds' rugger schedule for 1962 already includes many exhibition games with U.S. teams. They play Western Washington College, Oregon State, UCLA, and California this spring. The games with California will feature the World Cup competition played at Berkley on Feb. 24 and 26, and here on March 29 and 31. Another feature this term is a rugger game with New Zealand University here March 22. The New Zealanders will be comprised of some of the All Blacks —one of the best rugger teams fin New Zealand. i McKECHNIE GAME Also on the girds schedule is I a game with the Vancouver Reps for the McKechnie Cup on Feb. 3 here at the stadium. They also play Victoria March 10 at Victoria. A return match is slated for March 17. The Victoria games will be Cup games only it UBC beats the Reps. Otherwise they will be played as exhibition games. The Birds will start off the new year playing local clubs. First game will be against North Shore this Saturday at UBC stadium. The next two will slate CYO pn the 13th and the Kats the following weekend. Both games will be played at the stadium. JOHN COOK was standout for Birds, scoring the tying and winning points against Alberni in the Totem Tournament. Cook is a six-four rookie from Gladstone High. Northern Electric offers Replaces Stuart Bauer takes hockey reins When the University of B.C. Thunderbird hockey team resumes training this month it will have a new coach. Rev. David Bauer of St. Mark's College will take over the team from Al Stuart, the Vancouver school teacher who coached the 'Birds in 1960 and during the first part of this year. * * * Father .Bauer came to UBC's St. Mark's College this summer from St. Michael's College in Toronto, where he last year coached St. Mikes to the Memorial Cup. He was not expected to take over the coaching reins from Stuart until next season, when the new winter sports arena is due to be completed. Athletic department offic ials have released no official statement on the reason for the change. UBC's first league games are Jan. 12 and 13 against the Uni-. versity of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon. * * * Father Bauer grew up in the Kitchener-Waterloo area, a hot-bed of hockey, where he played in the city league. He then moved into junior hockey, playing left wing and centre for the Oshawa Generals when they won the Memorial Cup in 1945. He was on the negotiation list for the Boston Bruins, the team on which his brother Bobby Bauer became a big star. * * * Father Bauer managed the St. Michael's team for several years, and last year coached them to the Memorial Cup, when they defeated the jEd- montbn Oil Kings four games to two^ in Edmonton. Some of the players produced by St, Mikes during his time include Gerry McNamara, Red Kelly, Tim Horton, Frank Ma- havlich, Dave Keon, Bill Din- een, Reg Fleming, and Fleming Mackell.

The offering of three new degrees in the faculty of graduate studies has been approved by the University senate, president Dr. N.A.M. MacKenzie announced today. Beginning in the next academic year the department of geography will offer a program leading to the doctor of philosophy (Ph.D) degree, the faculty of law will offer the master of laws (LL.M) degree and the department of psychiatry will institute a program leading to the master of science (M.Sc) in psychiatry. Dr. J. L. Robinson, head of geography department, said UBC would be the first western Canadian university to offer the Ph.D degree in geography. Work will be offered in three specialized areas—rlhe geography of western Canada with emphasis on B.C. and systematic and economic geography. Dean G.I?. Curtis, head of the faculty of law, said that as part of the program leading to the LL.M. students would have the opportunity of specializing in three areas — natural resources law, international legal studies and labour law. The new program leading to the master of science in psychiatry degree will have a dual purpose, according to Dr. James Ty- hurst, head of the department of psychiatry. The program will train nonmedical graduates for psychiatric research in the increasingly-important area of mental health and will provide the opportunity for medical graduates to specialize in the field of psychiatry.
