Public Order (Temporary Measures) Act, 1970 is the name of Turner's proposal, which he says will expire April, 30, 1971. The act outlaws the Front de Liberation du Quebec although the government's terms of membership have changed slightly. Under the War Measures Act a person was considered a member of the FLQ if he had attended one of their meetings. Under the new public order, a member would constitute anyone who had attended "a number" of meetings. Fired teacher blames self By SANDY KASS Former secondary school teacher Art Olsen said Monday he feels too much fuss is being made over his dismissal from South Peace Secondary, Dawson Creek. Olsen was fired October 20th, two days before the B.C. government's order-in-council requiring dismissal of teachers who express opinion favorable to the Front de Liberation du Quebec, or advocate the violent overthrow of any "democratically elected" government. He told students in Ed. 100 the official reason given for his dismissal was that he failed to obtain a "letter of permission" from the provincial government, authorizing the Dawson Creek school board to hire him. The letter is required by all teachers working in B.C., and is normally requested by a school board when a teacher is being considered for employment. "When I was hired last June, I was told I would have to produce such a letter, but so many things came up I neglected to do it," said Olsen. "Nobody asked me for it since, and I just didn't bother to get it." Several days prior to Olsen's dismissal, school principal George Hartford decided autonomously to send a telegram to prime minister Pierre Trudeau commending his action in implementing the War Measures Act. Hartford then asked the students to help pay for the telegram by donating a nickel each to a fund set up by him for that purpose. Olsen, standing by the booth set up for collection of the fund, received several complaints from students who did not fully understand what the act was all about. He said they were annoyed at the fact their principal expected them to donate their money without an explanation from him on the background and possible repercussions of the situation. Olsen explained the situation in Quebec from an impartial point of view, favoring neither the FLQ nor the federal government. "At no time did I tell the students not to donate their money," he said. "My explanations were obviously misinterpreted," he added, "because by the next day the school received several complaints from parents, stating that I was speaking in favor of the FLQ to their children." "I was called before the Dawson Creek school board at 8 p.m. to state my case, and at 11 p.m. I was notified of my dismissal." The dismissal took effect immediately even though it was not until several days later that Olsen received his official reason for his firing. "As for my statements on the FLQ, they were in no way my own opinion, and 1 think the school board realizes this," he said. "But I neglected to get a letter of permission, which was my own negligence. The school board was within their rights in firing me." Olsen condemned the institutionalized atmosphere of the teaching profession, and said he was glad to be out of it. The B.C. Teachers Federation which offered aid to continued on page 8: see TEACHER The length of detention has also been slightly altered. Under the War Measures Act, a person could be held for seven days without being charged. Turner's proposal shortens this to three days. The maximum period a person could be detained would be seven days, instead of the specified 21 in the War Measures Act. The new public order also allows all persons arrested to contact counsel without delay. It also states persons arrested will retain most of their rights as outlined in the 1960 Bill of Rights, except they forego the right to bail and do not have to be charged immediately. The public order does not reduce the extraordinary power the police have in Quebec. The police still have the right to make searches without warrants and consficate any material they believe might be illegal or questionable. The Public Order Act still has two more readings in parliament before members vote on whether it is to become law. Dope favored Students across Canada who bothered to vote in the nation wide campus "grass poll" have called overwhelmingly for the legalization of marijuana. At UBC, of the ten per cent of the student population who voted, 1,698 were in favor and 568 against. At the University of Victoria, 67.3 per cent of those who voted said yes with 31.6 against. From Notre Dame University came 200 votes in favor with 82 opposed and 11 spoils. Only 423 voted in favor at the University of Calgary, but there were just 132 who said no. The turnout at Carleton with 742 yes votes and 237 no votes was not much better. Results from Quebec came from Bishop's University in Lennoxville where 42.5 per cent of the student population voted — 76 per cent of them in favor and 25.1 against. At Memorial University in St. John's. 1,103 students voted for legalization with 692 against and 125 undecided. Additional reports from last week's Canada-wide poll are still filtering into UBC where results are being tabulated. Page 2 THE UBYSSEY Tuesday, November 3, 1970 Harger waiting for report before launching his appeal By THOM WESCOTT Assistant professor of zoology Robin Harger is still waiting to bring his appeal before Dr. V. J. Okulitch, dean of the faculty of science. Harger said Monday the hearing would be held up until Okulitch receives an official report from the zoology department. At a meeting last week the zoology profs voted 25-13 to turn Harger out in July 1972. The vote was based on a report by the department's tenure and promotion committee which recommended 7-1 that Harger be denied promotion and dismissed. Harger said he would base his appeal on the grounds that he was required to defend his position without knowing what the tenure committee held against him. He said at the meeting of the zoology profs a question asking the committee to explain its reasons for recommending Harger's dismissal was ruled out of order. When asked if he believed that the split of 25-13 was wide enough to indicate non-confidence in the tenure committee, Harger replied, "That's a decision he (the head of the committee) will have to make himself." He said Dr. Crawford Holling, one of the zoology profs, at the meeting, said efforts to control and improve the environment should be done through established university channels and faculty members should express their concern through the university. Harger quoted Holling as saying, "A faculty member's primary duty is to the university and I don't believe Harger has made the university his primary Two busts at rally TORONTO (CUP) — Two persons were busted in the annual march from Queen's Park to city hall to protest Canada's complicity in the U.S. Viet Nam war. Both were charged with assault after one policeman was kicked in the groin and another punched in the face. The scuffle started when the 500 anti-war demonstrators were met by one hundred chanting, jeering members and sympathizers of the extreme right-wing Edmund Burke Society. Uniformed police on duty in city hall's Nathan Phillips square were reinforced by close to one hundred men held in reserve at the Eaton's annex around the corner. The cops marched between the two groups to hold them apart during most of the rally. The event was a considerable de-escalation from last year's march which attracted upwards of 3,000 people in addition to the Burkers and a host of mounted and foot police. Opposition was expressed to the War Measures Act as well as to the U.S.-Viet Nam war, but most of the speakers were drowned out by the whistles and chants of "out reds out" from the Burkers. A telegram of support to the students of Kent State University was read which stated that 'the indictment of 25 brothers and sisters in Ohio on riot charges is another attempt by the U.S. government to blame the victims for its violence." With this weekend's police activity in Quebec bringing the number of' arrests under the War Measures Act to a total of 420, it all seemed a little unreal. NOTICIA!

Tuesday, November 3, 1970 THE UBYSSEY Page 3 Charioteer all right but race may have died By DON GARDNER The forestry student injured in Thursday's chariot race remains in satisfactory condition in Vancouver General Hospital. David Parminter, forestry 3, underwent exploratory surgery Monday afternoon to determine whether or not infection had set in. Parminter suffered severe arm lacerations when he fell underneath the forestry chariot. An earlier operation had sewn up his arm and he will likely regain the full use of his arm. Allen Wasnea, engineering 3, who injured his hand while attempting to pull Parminter to safety, also spent the weekend in hospital. His hand was placed in a cast and he was discharged on Monday morning. The Chariot Race is held annually in conjunction with the home-ec and nurses' Teacup football game to raise money for the Children's Hospital. The irony of the situation is that not only did it donate money to crippled children, it also donated some more cripples. When the RCMP arrived at the stadium, some engineers blamed the accident on the forestry chariot, which was a massive, tank-like structure with its pullers inside. Forestry Undergrad president, Bill Dumont, explained: "Our intentions weren't to hurt anybody. We were only trying to protect our pullers." Last year, the Foresty pullers were roughed up by the —jim gorman photo WAR MEASURES ACT, pollution, over-population, Tom Campbell, unemployment, housing shortage, engineers March and rallies peaceful The war in Viet Nam and the repression of civil liberties in Canada were blasted by Vancouver activists at a protest march and two rallies over the weekend. Jack Maley of the Unemployed Citizens Welfare Improvement Council told 300 students in SUB plaza Friday that the same situation now exists in Canada as in Viet Nam. In both nations armed guards protect politicians who are afraid of the people because of the people's poverty, he said. In Viet Nam and in Canada poverty is caused because politicians are selling the country out. Hilda Thomas, chairman of the Viet Nam Action Committee traced the unemployment situation in B.C. to inflation caused by Americans borrowing $30 billion a year to pay for the Viet Nam war. She told the students that unemployment is at eight per cent in B.C. and at 20 per cent among young people in the 18 to 25 year old age group. Saturday about 500 people showed up at the Vancouver courthouse to peacefully protest the Viet Nam war in spite of all the adverse publicity on the rally during the last week. At the meeting at the courthouse at noon, the demonstrators heard speakers on both the Viet Nam War and the current situation in Canada. The rally then moved down Granville along Broadway to city hall amid police and yippies, who tossed fire crackers en route. Also in evidence from time to time were six city policemen on horseback, in full riot gear, who appeared to be shadowing the march. Alderman Harry Rankin, who made the demonstration possible by fighting for a permit in city council, said it is our primary responsibility to ensure that the War Measures Act is lifted, but also said that terrorism is never justified. engineers' goon squad. Not to be discouraged by an enclosed chariot, the engineers, seeking their 11th victory in a row, attacked with more vigour than before. Because they were unable to directly harass the foresters, they tried to push the chariot off the track. In the confusion, Parminter slipped and was trapped under the chariot. Both sides had previously agreed to limit their teams to 40, however, immediately after the race began, about 60 engineers rushed down from the stands, swelling their number to about 100 and nearly causing a riot. Because of the week's events, there'll probably never be another chariot race. As Dumont said: "It was just too goddamn idiotic." U.S. firm buys text publisher TORONTO- (CUP) - American control of the Canadian school room will become even greater in the future with the announcement Monday of the sale of Ryerson Press to the Canadian subsidiary of McGraw-Hill of New York. The sale of Ryerson, a major text book publisher for Canadian schools, comes just five weeks after an announcement of the sale of W. J. Gage Ltd., Canadian textbook publishers based in Toronto, to a Chicago company. Ryerson Press, which has been owned by the United Church of Canada, and which was founded 140 years ago by the Methodist Church, publishes elementary and high school text books used across the country, as well as paper back books and the United Church Observer. The cost of taking over the publishing firm to the giant U.S. company has not yet been announced. According to published reports, Maclean-Hunter Ltd. of Toronto had an earlier offer of over one million dollars to purchase the firm. Apparently, Ryerson is losing money quite rapidly — $500,000 over the past three years according to a spokesman for the United Church. When the Gage company was purchased, the Trudeau government, which in the spring moved with surprising quickness to prevent the sale of a uranium mine to U.S. control, said in the commons that the situation was being explored. Summer jobs now available Avoid the spring rush and start looking for a job now. The office of student services has put out a bulletin listing jobs for the summer of 1971 with various Canadian firms. The bulletin includes the qualifications required and the dates representatives from the different companies will interview applicants. This bulletin is posted at various locations throughout the campus. These jobs are mainly for science students, especially those in engineering, geology and geophysics. There are also a few vacancies for arts students. Most of the positions are for men. The majority of the jobs are located outside Vancover, and in some cases, even outside B.C. Cam Craig, placement officer, said that few students, however, know of this job bulletin. He said that much of the job-finding hassle could be avoided if students read this bulletin and make an appointment with the company whose job interests them most. Craig is available at the office of student services to any student who wishes individual counselling. Any student wishing to sign up for an interview with a representative from one of the companies should go to the placement division of the office of student services. Interviews started on Nov. 1 and continue throughout the year. TA meeting today The constitution of the Non-Faculty Teachers' Union will be ratified today at noon in Bu. 202. Any TA or lab assistant without full faculty status is invited to come. The union is mainly concerned with the protection of its members from such things as firing and the role of TA's at UBC.

NOVEMBER 3, 1970 The new addition The provincial government has finally decided to fill that long standing vacancy on the UBC board of governors. Their choice? Why none other than that sterling paragon of justice, provincial court Les Bewley. One of the men who controls our lives at university is now the same man who has become notorious for the total contempt in which he holds the people who appear in his courtroom. Bewley, more than any other local jurist, seems to cling firmly to the belief that those who appear before him represent the lowest form of animal life and should be treated accordingly. His statements on the university and other areas of current concern have made him something of a new hero to the Tom Campbell-Spiro Agnew freaks. Yes, Bewley will certainly fit in well with the rest of the board. He should get along just fine with the industrialists and Socred cronies who fill the other chairs around that crucial table. The board of governors theoretically represents community control over the public university. Of course, if that was the case the board would include representatives of labor — the people who pay taxes to support a university largely for the children of their employers so the university can churn out their future bosses. It would even (perish the thought) include representatives of the people most directly concerned with the actions — students. In fact, the board represents control of the university by the people who control the rest ot the community. The board is a vehicle of the corporate interests who control our economy, the quality our environment and, by extension, the nature of our existence. Les Bewley isn't exactly a member of the corporate elite, but he has established himself as one of its more willing servants.

LETTERS Socreds Editor, The Ubyssey, Sir: I would like to commend you for the strong and vigorous opposition you have shown to the hysterical attack on our civil liberties in this province. However, you have not made the nature of this attack sufficiently explicit. To put it simply, the recent provincial order-in-council has no force in law. To do so it would have to be proclaimed under existing legislation, in this case either the Schools Act and/or the University Act. There are no provisions whatever for such a proclamation in these acts, and indeed the order runs contrary to many provisions of these acts relating to dismissal procedures. Since an order-in-council cannot supercede legislation, it is not in fact the law of the land. Rather, the order is merely an expression of opinion, and as such deserves in reply only the upturned middle finger we traditionally reserve for the copropolitical yahooism of the _S_ociaL£retin party. To call for its withdrawal merely vests the order with a legitimacy it does not have. Thus, my response will be to ignore it completely. Since I teach a course in political violence and am engaged in research on the effectiveness of violence in producing social change, I am almost certainly in violation of the letter of the order; as I exalt freedom and justice over "law'n order", I believe I am violating its spirit as well. But I have no intention of changing my actions or statements one iota, nor am I going to give these imbeciles the satisfaction of losing any sleep over their rantings. MICHAEL D. WALLACE Assistant Professor Political Science beneficial to both faculties. At times this relationship was strained, but we always seemed to be able to smooth out any differences. What happened Thursday afternoon was really a sad display of what it's all about. I don't thing anyone went onto that field with any intention of hurting anyone, but it did happen. It was obvious from the time we entered the field until we left the stadium that something was wrong. There appeared to be real hatred between some members of the teams. When the race did start people were using fists and boots to win a race that is held just to provide entertainment during half-time of the Teacup football game. The race is supposed to be a lot of fun but it wasn't that way. There were just too many of our team members with cut faces, broken noses and sore ribs. No doubt, there were injuries to those on the engineering team as well. This sort of violence doesn't belong in this race. Because of this violence, I don't think forestry will participate in the chariot race again. It is really too bad, because the race used to be lots of fun. We did have meetings about the race and agreements were made, but it didn't seem to do any good. Unfortunately, there weren't any real winners in the race. Worst of all Al Wasnea and Dave Parminter, the two students seriously injured, were the major losers. W. E. DUMONT, President Forester Undergraduate Society. Council Teacup Editor, The Ubyssey, Sir: In the past and up until Thursday afternoon's chariot race there has been a friendly rivalry between forestry and engineering students. We have participated in a lot of activities that have been Editor, The Ubyssey, Sir: As a council member who attended the last AMS council meeting, I found your subsequent coverage in Friday's paper both inadequate and misleading. The article was an excellent example of the type that abounds in the downtown papers; its sloppiness distorted what actually took place. It is of particular importance that students should understand the motion which council passed withdrawing support from the master teacher award committee. Had your reporter listened to the letter which David Mole read to council on behalf of the grad student executive, he would have realized that the motion was not introduced, as he suggested, because the master teacher award traditionally has been given to "old cronies". This was never suggested, and indeed those supporting the motion made amply clear that the motives of the committee were not being questioned. Rather, it was our feeling that as an attempt to promote good teaching at UBC, the master teacher award fails in its objective. Undoubtedly, those who have received the award in the past have exhibited fine teaching qualities, but the award itself is misleading. In the face of the recent firing of English professors noted for their teaching ability, in the face of the "publishing mill" which our university has become, in the face of its research function, dedicated to the continuance of an exploitative economic and social structure, it is apparent that the master teacher award serves largely to mask the reality — the administrative controllers of this university are not interested in teaching. Further, the master teacher award serves to foster the illusion of individualism in the form of the charismatic professor. I do not believe that in the present university system there can be a master teacher. Brilliant classroom performances by individual profs who have no concerted program for changing the structure of things do nothing to challenge the repressive nature of the university. In passing this motion, council has taken one very small step in the direction of confronting some important issues. It must now take a leadership role in mobilizing students in a fight to make the university an institution where real education takes place, and where good teaching becomes meaningful and viable. EVERT HOOGERS Graduate Student Representative. Tuesday, November 3, 1970 THE UBYSSEY Page 5 fixin* to By THOM WESCOTT PART SIX For all of you who didn't see In the Year of the Pig, I'd like to quote a rosy-cheeked, red-blooded son of America named General George S. Patton III, commanding a tank division in Viet Nam. "We've got a pretty happy bunch of boys here, the morale's pretty good. They've always got a smile on their faces. "I was at a pretty solemn thing the other day, a memorial service for four of the boys in one of our squadrons who got killed. "It was really great, we sang about three hymns and then we had this real nice prayer. "And I looked around and saw those boys standing there and I felt so proudof America. "They're really nice boys — and they're a great bunch of killers." While we're on quotes, how about this one by some admiral in the same film? "Sure, they're good fighters, everybody knows a Chinaman doesn't give a damn about his own life." Let me add that a honky Yank soldier in Viet Nam doesn't give a damn about Vietnamese life, and I don't give a damn about the life of anyone who could come out with a statement like the quote above. Since I've gone this far off the track, I'm going to finish this week's column on the subject of American attitudes towards Vietnamese. To the average American, all you see over there is gooks. A gook is any oriental, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai or whatever. The Americans value a gook life somewhere under that of a water buffalo. This is even reflected in official policy. The American forces have agreed to pay up to 30,000 piastres, or about $300 in U.S. funds, for every water buffalo killed or disabled by American fire. For every father or working son killed they pay $100, for women or children it's only $50. I never saw prisoners being brutalized during interrogation, but then I was never allowed to watch an interrogation. It was standard practice when handling prisoners to tie their hands as tight as possible and to push them blindfolded and barefoot over the hottest and sharpest stones. Most of the prisoners interrogated by the Americans are not enemy soldiers but innocent civilians who appeared suspicious or were caught where some patrol leader decided they shouldn't be. I'll never forget how one Marine bragged to me about his own interrogations. His favorite story was an old woman suspected of sympathy with the Viet Cong. After mutilating her daughter while forcing her to watch, they spread her legs and shoved a rocket flare up her vagina. When it was clear she knew nothing of the Cong's activities they set the rocket off and watched her bleed to death. When the battalion commander began to suspect something was going on and expressed concern, the intelligence officer, whom the men were working for, told him, "You just leave my boys alone, they know what they're doing." These same men were later stationed in a friendly village to coordinate with Vietnamese government forces. For about three months they lived with one of the families in the village. The women washed their clothes and cleaned their rooms for them, the whole village shared its food with them. When they were instructed to come back in because the battalion was moving out of the area they decided to have a final joke with their hosts. They burned their house down. There is more of this kind of thing going on than a "civilized" mind can believe. I have spent almost a year trying to forget these things, and my mind has done a fairly good job, but there are some things I can never forget. DAVIES' RAVIES BY JIM DAVIES Civic politics super depressing It's difficult to be an optimist after my latest forays into the last few days' political happenings. • Biggest news by far is Tom Campbull's significant defeat of former mayor Bill Rathie in the bid for the NPA mayoralty endorsement. "I may have made mistakes," he admitted, but then came back with, "But I was always trying." I am sure the TEAM aldermen - Walter Hardwick, Art Phillips and Brian Calder would certainly agree with Tom's statements. After all, they certainly found him trying even at the best of times. • Campbull unleashed another bomb at the meeting — his decision to hire 85 more police. In as much as he is also a police commissioner, this would give Campbell even more power over the people of Vancouver. It is interesting to note that Tom Terrific's father was an mta MM officer on the vice-squad. Like father, like son. • About the only possibility which could see Campbell defeated would be if Rathie's entry into the mayoralty race as an independent would split some of the traditional NPA vote, perhaps letting an outsider like TEAM's Bill Gibson in. • Meanwhile, Gibson is off to slightly more elegant haunts than the old Manhattan ballroom where all NPA activity took place. Gibson leaves tomorrow for the White House (yep, the one in Washington) where he will attend a function with Lord Mountbatten, ex-admiral of the British Fleet. Topic of concern is education. • Agnes Kripps, Socred MLA for Vancouver South, nicely decked-out in a scarlet pant suit at the NPA's nomination meeting last night, approached me shortly after the Campbull victory announcement. "Well, if it isn't Davies Ravies," MNMNMWMIMMnMW she said. Agnes then proceeded to tell me she was representing the good premier this Sunday in Winnipeg, as Manitoba celebrates "B.C. Day" in accordance with its centennial goings-on. I asked her if she was convinced that Les Peterson, B.C.'s attorney-general, would succeed W. A. C. Bennett as premier. Her answer: "1 wouldn't bet that he (Bennett) will retire. You wouldn't believe the vitality that man has. He's more alive than most of the MLA's." • Bennett will be 75 years young at the end of this term. We're living in a dynamic city in a dynamic province.

Page 6 THE UBYSSEY Tuesday, November 3, 1970 in the classroom By FRED KENNEDY A nice and knowledgeable professor doesn't necessarily mean an understandable teacher or a good class. Which brings us to Monday and Thursday mornings at 11:30 when physics prof Andrew Gold attempts to teach vector mechanics in Hennings 202. We say attempts because most of the students' in this physics 220 class indicate they haven't got a clue what Gold is talking about. This sword has a double edge, however, for part of the fault lies in the fact that the course content itself is considered a terror by its 175 students. In addition, the students maintain Gold is one of the more personable, approachable physics profs, although they have difficulty keeping up with him during lectures. The course is composed mostly of honors students and is labelled selected topics in mechanics and special relativity. Some student reactions to Gold follow: "He knows what he's doing but I don't." "He's interesting but he doesn't give enough examples and problems." "He writes so quick you can't think about what he's saying." "We need far more problems and examples." "You can't follow him." "I'm seriously thinking of dropping this course." Dr. Gold himself is considered a good person to deal with on an individual basis. He apparently welcomes students who go to his office for extra help. In class he answers questions immediately and concisely but few students venture questions in the first place. Physics 220 course travels too fast "How can you ask a question when you're totally lost? Besides, asking a question makes you look like you're lost and nobody is lost in physics 220, right?" one student commented after Monday's lecture. It appears that Gold's good personal qualities have not been sufficient to salvage the course for great number of students. On Monday Gold commented on the fact that most students said they were able to answer only one or two questions out of the four given on a recent mid-term exam. "I'm not cheered up by the results of the mid-term," he told the class. Presumably the students were not cheered up either. With that for openers, Gold continued the lecture with a discussion of central forces and how one can figure out the radius vector of an orbiting body in terms of angular momentum, reduced mass, eccentricity and the angle between the radius and eccentricity. He then showed how the total energy of a particle could be written in terms of its effective potential energy and the kinetic energy of the system. Five pages of notes and numerous lost students later, Gold finally got the result he wanted — Kepler's Third Law. Gold and the course he teaches seem to fall into a familiar, problem-causing pattern in science courses in general. Everyone takes down pages of notes and can't follow the lectures at all. The whole structure consists of deriving one -golden formula from another and when a student misses one link in the chain of reason, he or she is lost. r KERRISDALE CAMERAS "THE STORE WHERE THE ACTION IS" NIKON SHOW pRfcS E^S Kerrisdale Cameras Exclusive Nikon Presentation IS A RESULT OF THE MANY REQUESTS FOR A REPEAT OF OUR SPRING SHOW DATE: NEXT MONDAY-NOVEMBER 9th.

THE UBYSSEY Page 7 CIVIC ELECTION PART TWO NPA backs Campbell again By JIM DAVIES The Non-Partisan Association's slate for this year's civic election is virtually a re-run of their 1968 offerings. The mayoralty candidate once again is Tom Campbell, the aldermanic nominees are the same old faces, and the school board and parks board slates remain basically similar. The only threat to Campbell's bid to again represent the NPA was quashed last night as Bill Rathie, Vancouver mayor from 1962-66, was soundly defeated in a vote cast by some 160 association members at the final nomination meeting held in the Manhattan Ballroom. The meeting brought out a full corps of the city's media representatives as it appeared to be the first excitement in this year's civic elections. The NPA members reflected the excitement, talking excitedly of the new "challenge" to Campbell. had only 10 minutes to speak. "I'm here because I'm concerned," said Rathie, his voice wavering with emotion. "We have a lot of problems in Vancouver, but our problems lie beyond our city's boundaries. "We have a lot of issues to face. We must have solutions to problems, not a problem maker. No confrontation "I won't attack Tom Campbell," he said. "But I will in time criticize him. "You'll remember Campbell criticized me pretty thoroughly last time we were opponents. Rathie recognized problems in housing, transportation, and policing, and added he was capable of "reaching the ears" of the provincial and federal governments.. He concluded that he "could get the job done and build a better Vancouver." Rathie received a mild applause which paled beside the cheers which greeted Campbell. NPA theatrics Theatrics were the word of the hour at the opening of the meeting. A lengthy introduction for Tom Campbell produced not the expected personnage, but rather NPA executive Alan Campbell who told the audience that he was sometimes called Tom. Alan Campbell then proceeded to nominate and introduce Bill Rathie. "This is a serious occasion," he said, and added, "It may later be considered a farce." He told the people that Rathie was a relatively young man at age 56, that he was a serious candidate, and that he had a stake in the city. "We are in the fortunate position of having the records of these two men before us," he said. "And," he added, "the choice is clear. Lost direction "Four years ago we had direction in our civic leadership, then we lost it. I won't go into the details of how we lost it. "The choice is obvious," he concluded, "Rathie is our man for mayor." With that introduction, Rathie took the stage. However, before he had a chance to speak, an NPA executive approached him at the microphone, advising him that he Tom! Tom! Several elderly ladies shrieked, "Tom, Tom!" when Campbell took the stage. "Really, what is there to say," said Campbell. "The record speaks for itself." The end of almost every one of his statements was punctuated with loud applause. "I don't really think the city of Vancouver has gone so far down in the last four years," Campbell chuckled. "It's easy to talk about housing and those kind of issues. These things are important but first we have to talk about law and order," he said, whispering the last three words into the microphone. The audience went wild. Law and Order "Let me tell you," said Campbell, "unless the streets are safe to walk, unless people can go down to the beaches without fear . . . there won't be a sound administration in city hall." Campbell then announced that a motion asking for 85 additional police officers for the city would be presented in today's city council meeting. "I wonder how many of those aldermen who voted against the riot sticks will vote against this! "This is the most important issue facing us today," he concluded, "Peace in our streets." He then left the stage to the cheers of the crowd. The resultant vote was 111 to 49 according to NPA ececutives. However, other execs placed the final tally at 111 to 78. Either way, it was a clear mandate for Campbell, who will now seek his third term in December. Rathie in running After the results were made public, Rathie told the press that he would seek the mayoralty position as an independent. In last week's NPA meeting the aldermanic slate passed included its six present aldermen, one former alderman, two previous aldermanic candidates, and one new face. Present aldermen nominated were: Earle Adams, 69, a business consultant; Hugh Bird, 68, retired fire chief; Ernie Broome, 62, insurance agent; Marianne Linnell, 56, real estate agent; Edward Sweeney, 40, businessman; and Halford Wilson, 63, a contractor. The former alderman nominated was Peter Graham, 46, financier, who served on council in 1967-8. The previous candidates nominated were: Everett Crowley, 67, dairyman, who was defeated in 1968 to TEAM's Art Phillips after a judicial recount; and Charles Widman, 44, wholesaler of forest products, defeated TEAM candidate in the last election. The "new face" is Walter Davidson, 33, a management consultant and ex-policeman. Other candidates Nominated last night tor school board were: Ian Kelsey, SFU administrator, Eva New housewife; Alan MacMillan, school administrator, Fred Rowell, lawyer; Mel Scott, insurance manager; Wilson St. John, sales manager; John Stearman, businessman; Graeme Waymark, businessman; and Sidney Taylor, retired school principal. Parks board candidates were: Sandy Robertson, engineer; Harry Appleton, auctioneer and appraiser; Helen Boyce, housewife; Gladys Chong, florist; Max Edgar, retired businessman; Andy Livingstone, financial counsellor; J. E. Malkin, retired businessman; George Puil, teacher; Don Renshaw, travel agent; George Wainborn, public relations director; and Rebecca Watson, nurse. Basic NPA issue for the December 19 elections, as proposed by Campbell and the other councillors is law and order. U.B.C.

Olsen was not a member of the No charges against EUS The Commerce Undergraduate Society has decided not to press charges against the engineers, following a raid on the CUS common room Wednesday said CUS president, Rick Acton, Monday. The CUS was forced to withdraw from Thursday's chariot race after the engineers damaged their chariot, the CUS common room and stole $75 worth of beer. The damage totalled about $150. CUS did not bring the Engineering Undergrad Society before the Alma Mater Society court because Chris Green, EUS president and one of the engineers involved, agreed that EUS would pay damages, Acton said. Sponsors for X-Kalay? A society for ex-cons will be looking for student sponsors, Thursday. X-Kalay (which is located in an ex-frat house), is holding a meeting in SUB auditorium at 8 p.m. to form a sponsoring group of interested students, said Luis Molina, program director of X-Kalay. "Dave Berner, founder and executive director of X-Kalay will speak on X-Kalay's alternative education and its relevance to university," said Molina. Today and until Thursday X-Kalay residents will man a booth on the main floor of SUB across from the information desk, to tell students about the organization and Thursday's lecture. BCTF, the union to which every teacher in B.C. is required to belong. He neglected to fill out the necessary forms, and even though dues were deducted from his salary, he was never considered a member by the BCTF. BCTF officials previously condemned the order-in-council, stating, "It is unnecessary, and completely opposed to the ideals behind the War Measures Act, and the B.C. School Act." "We deeply resent the order, and expect its repeal immediately, because it affects the civil liberties of all teachers," the federation stated. When asked if he would continue teaching, Olsen replied, "Certainly not in B.C. 1 hear there may be some openings in Quebec in the near future. "I really have no desire to continue in the teaching profession," he said. This was Olsen's first year teaching. He received his B.Ed. degree in chemistry from UBC last May.

Tuesday, November 3, 1970 THE UBYSSEY Do res students have a voice? Tonight Place Vanier residents will find out if student opinion is worth anything. Earlier this year- they voted 89 per cent in favor of extending weekend visiting hours to 3 a.m. A recommendation to change the hours was then placed before the board of governors advisory committee. Tonight the residents will meet with housing director, Les •Rohringer to find out the committee's recommendations and housing's decision. Denis Boyd, president of Place Vanier residents association said Monday, "It is my understanding that the hours have been extended from midnight to 2:30 a.m." Rohringer said he couldn't release housing's decision until tonight but added: "The advisory committee argued for several hours with several members strongly opposing the suggestion and others feeling that students should have some self-determination." Boyd said most students thought the advisory committee was too far from the students to appreciate their problems and the indication is that it does not want to get closer to students. "Housing's point is 'students are not forced to live in residence so if they do they have to obey the rules.' While this may be justified we're slowly trying to change it," he said. Skagit public meeting Save the Skagit Valley! will be the topic of a public meeting to be held Tuesday evening at 8 p.m. in the John Oliver Auditorium on 41st at Fraser.

Tuesday, November 3, 1970 THE UBYSSEY Page 11 HJihtiki TBirds trounced, lose to SFU 61-6 By DON GARDNER A lot of people said that this year's Shrum Bowl would be a slaughter. And a lot of people turned out to be exactly right Saturday night as the Simon Fraser Clansmen trounced the UBC Thunderbirds 61-6. The Birds came into the game with a bad case of the jitters and coughed up the ball five times on fumbles in the first half alone, as SFU rambled to a 40-0 lead. UBC fumbled nine times in all, and lost seven of them — all in their own zone. UBC kicked off to start the game and the Clan marched 64 yards in 10 plays for the major. The touchdown came on a 40 yard gallop by halfback Glen Colwill on a screen pass from quarterback Dave Syme. After the kickoff, UBC set the tone of the game on their first series. On a play sent in from the bench, Roger Gregory replaced Al Larson at quarterback and fumbled the snap from centre. SFU recovered on the Birds' 21 and four plays later, Terry Bailey scored on a seven yard touchdown run to make it 13-0. If there was a turning point in the game, it came late in the first quarter when the Birds' Mike Ireland intercepted a Syme pass and returned it to the SFU 48 yard line. But a clipping penalty brought it back to UBC's 31 and on the next play Larson fumbled the exchange from centre Jim Vilvang. Three plays later, Syme scrambled 24 yards for a touchdown and SFU led 20-0. The rest of the half was much like the first 10 minutes as UBC gave the ball to SFU three more times on fumbles and when the smoke had cleared the Clansmen were up 40-0. But to the Birds' credit, they kept their heads up and played some good football in the second half. John Wilson started things off by returning the kickoff 41 yards. Then, sparked by the running of Diakow and Dave Corcoran, they drove down to the SFU three yard line, but two runs and two Time Out By SCOTT McCLOY Ubyssey Sports Editor "We beat ourselves; nobody beat us," These were the words of a frustrated Frank Gnup after his team had taken a 61-6 defeat at the hands of the Simon Fraser Clansmen. The game started out badly and quickly worsened for the hapless Birds. After four minutes into the game the powerful Clansmen scored their first touchdown and started showing why they were ranked 13th in the NAIA out of 560 schools in Canada and the United States. So after people had regained their senses from the onslaught of the Clansmen machine at the end of the half the score read an unbelievable 40-0 in favour of Simon Fraser. UBC fumbled no less than five times in the first half seemingly trying to prove to themselves that SFU were the stronger team. The disappointing aspect is that the Birds are not fumblers. Prior to this game they could be faulted for handing the ball to the opposition in many ways but one of those has not been slippery fingers. It got so ludicrous that at the half one reporter charged wildly out of the press box searching madly for the fuse box to end the game mercifully. The second half, however, was a completely different story. Although SFU proved they were still the superior team the Birds managed to get over their first half nerves and play some football. If one looks at the score of the second half the statistics show that the score was 21-6. Games are not decided by one half, however and SFU were better in the first half by 40 points. The pressure was definitely on the Birds this game and they didn't know how to handle it. With a record of one win and five losses coming into the game they felt they had to show that they were better than their record and further, that SFU were not as good as theirs attested. The final score was academic as the game was won after ten minutes, but to the Birds' credit they never quit. After the disastrous first half they could have folded their wings but in the second half they showed claws that have been seen only sparingly this season. In the final analysis, though, the words of frustrated Frank ring true. The Birds did beat themselves as they have all season. It's been the mistakes resulting in touchdowns that have killed UBC and Saturday night they kept true to form. Four of the UBC fumbles resulted in Clansmen touchdowns. So Frank must again look to next year and hope to build a team that has both the talent and the spirit (which this one has) and that elusive substance - luck - that has been absent all season. keith dunbar photo THERE WAS VERY LITTLE ROOM for Dave Corcoran (35) and other UBC backs in the annual Shrum Bowl played at Empire Stadium against the Simon Fraser Clansmen on Saturday night. Even Jim Fomelli's (68) punching block fails to prevent SFU's Morris Zukewych (67) in stopping Corcoran. Final score was 61-6 in favor of SFU. incomplete passes kept them off the scoreboards. SFU took over and drove down for another touchdown by Mike Begg, making it 47-0. After the kickoff, Larson tossed a 24 yar^l pass to Wilson, and then an exciting 49 yard run by Corcoran took the ball down to the one foot line. Larson punched it over for the score. Coach Frank Gnup tried to rub a little salt in the wound by going for a two point conversion and trying an outside kick, but both were unsuccessful. SFU added another seven points in the fourth quarter on a three yard run by Bryan Heron. And on the last play of the game, SFU's Ian Purcell capped off a frustrating night for the Birds as he scooped a wild pitchout and rambled 25 yards to make it 61-6. Statistics are for losers, but UBC can find little consolation in them. Syme completed 17 of 24 passes for 254 yards as SFU rolled up 30 first downs and 478 yards total offence. One bright spot for UBC was their rushing attack (if you ignore the fumbles). Corcoran carried 10 times for 83 yards and Diakow 17 times for 58 yards. It's too bad the score was so lopsided. SFU has the better football team, but they're not that much better.

The other things include being a judge who is noted largely for two things: his occasional compassion for the poor slob who appears in his court and his occasional proclamations that the laws of Canada must be obeyed or else. Lately it has been his very vocal insistence on adherence to the Criminal Code and his complete contempt for people involved in street demonstrations ~- that has put Bewley's name in the news He has recently made statements, either explicity or implicity, that police should have arrested the occupiers of the faculty club in 1968; that storekeepers should keep guns under the counters to shoot bandits, that people involved in the summer disturbances in the city are "modern savages", that the raised fist of the Black revolution is a fascist salute; that campuses are the breeding grounds of sedition and treason. "Violence, destruction of property and intimidation of other persons as a means of expressing political or other opinions will be followed, in this country, by serious consequences for those who indulge in them." — Aug. 4, 1970. Bewley has been a very colorful judge, one who makes the papers with his comments, be they witty asides or resounding statements of his toughness. He has caused furors with his admonitions or cautions to licensed people. He has been the subject of columns and editorials and the object of numerous letters to the editor. He is also a former columnist for The Ubyssey ("1 have a card saying I'm a lifetime honorary member of The Ubyssey) and a former assistant city prosecutor. All of which make for a very notable, quotable and , colorful person. But why would he be appointed to the board of governors at UBC? Well, first we can take a short look at the board as it now stands. "When you have faculty members with seemingly no respect lor the law and less knowledge of it, then you're breeding a climate where literally sedition and illegal acts are being preached and encouraged on the campuses and in the schools, too." — Oct. 14, 1970. The board is the ultimate governing body of the university. Its members invariably — Bewley is no exception — refer to the university as a corporation, and in that sense, the board is the equivalent of a board of directors. As board of directors, it makes all the final decisions relating to the university's financial matters: priorities concerning building, acquisitions, hiring and firing of all staff and attracting and keeping of benefactors. It also selects the president of the university, who then becomes a board member. So, who are these people with such power? Chairman is John Liersch, vice-president of Canadian Forest Products Ltd. "If they (activist campus groups) can get you into a situation where you act like sheep, clash with police in a mob, and get a broken head and a criminal record, they figure they can recruit you " to their movements." — Oct. 23, 1967. Others include Walter Koerner, head of Rayonier Canada Ltd.; Richard Bibbs, executive assistant with MacMillan Bloedel; Donovan Miller, president of Canadian Fishing Co.; David Williams, a lawyer and former Kiwanis 4 Club president; Paul Plant, vice-president Ralph S. Plant Ltd. lumber; and lawyer and businessman Arthur Fouks; and Mrs. John MacD. Lecky. member of many clubs and organizations and wife of the Town Planning Commission chairman. By MICHAEL FINLAY "If you think anyone has a prime responsibility to find this man a job, I can assure you, you are sadly mistaken. "In the first place, from the look of him, 80 per cent of employers wouldn't hire him. Philosphically, I suppose it may be the duty of the state to find jobs for its citizens, but this has never occured in any state, except possibly a police state." — July 31, 1970, while sentencing a man to four months for creating a disturbance. BEWLEY 'legitimate ethic'' There are no representatives of labor, teaching (save administration president Walter Gage) church or welfare. So how does Bewley fit into this bed of corporate kings and wheeler dealers? We asked him in an interview Monday night, portions of which follow. "I suspect this (the appointment) is a plot on the part of the Establishment to make me respectable. I'm not sure they will succeed. "Any experience with a black bear is nothing compared to tangling with me." — July 27, 1970. "I sense somehow that there might be a large misconception about this whole deal. I have not, as far as I am concerned, been appointed by the provincial government as a sort of sheriff - a Matt Dillon sent to Dodge City. "Some people think I'm a hardliner. Well, I am on some issues. But I don't think I was sent in by the government as a law 'n' order man. At least it never came up in our discussions. "I sense that many students feel that with the university, as with most large, monlithic organizations, the average student has no way of communicating with the governing body. "I hope from time to time to go over to the SUB pub and if any students have anything to say to me, they will come over and talk, as long as they buy the beer. "I also hope that any student should feel free to write me at the Public Safety Building, 312 Main, as long as he signs his name, address and phone number. "If students have legitimate ideas on how to reform the unversity, they can talk to me." Legitimate? "I think I know what isn't legitimate: A person who does not have legitimate ideas is one who is not a seeker of truth but is a polemicist, and I think you know what I mean. "I am beginning to suspect that if citizens and property owners were allowed to carry guns, crime would be greatly reduced." — Jan. 29, 1970. "If he starts out by identifying the university in stratifying terms, if he starts talking about class structure and regards people in terms of their class background, then his views are not legitimate." A person with a Marxist viewpoint cannot hold legitimate opinions, in other words? "No, I didn't say that. I mean, people say to me, "How can you deal with underprivileged people when you are upper middle-class.' "Well, I come from a long line of blacksmiths. My father was a blacksmith. My parents came here in 1906 with $25 in their pockets. "They rented five rooms with it and then went down to the CPR station and got people off the trains to rent four of the rooms. And then they went out and bought furniture from a junk dealer to furnish the rooms and they made some money to eat for the next month. "Don't tell me I don't know anything about being underprivileged." "1 was the guy who let Vancouver's first hippie oft." — Nov. 2, 1970. You subscribe then to the classic North American ethic off starting out on your own and working your way up? "I don't shrink from that. That is legitimate ethic — or at least it was." Bewley spoke about two cases which gained him celebrity or notoriety, depending on your point of view. In one, he told a legless Skid Road bum that police would do better to leave him in a garbage can to sober up. "Carl was and still is a good friend of mine. The police would arrest him and throw him in the drunk tank and he would get beat up by the other prisoners. I was saying that it would be more humane for them to throw him in a garbage can, and Carl agreed with me." (Carl said: 'Mr. Bewley is right. Sometimes I think I am no better than rubbish.') In the other case, Bewley told a woman who was nine months pregnant and charged with assaulting a welfare worker she claimed was late giving her a welfare cheque that she could eat garbage if she was hungry. "The defence lawyer wanted to bring in a long list of witnesses to talk about the social system. He wanted to make the thing a cause celebre. I refused to allow my court to be turned into a political forum. "The woman had lots of flesh on her and would not have starved just because her cheque was a little late." "She won't starve. She could go to a store and ask for bread. She can go to the garbage can. There is food about." — Jan. 24, 1964, while sentencing a pregnant woman to two days for common assault. Back to the university and the board. "There is a legitimate role for the university to play in solving social ills, but it must be careful not to trespass on the ground of the legislators. "There is a legitimate view that if you want to change the rules, you run for public office. "At the same time there is a role for informed university opinion. And by informed I don't mean Eldridge Cleaver and Jerry Rubin. "As far as I'm concerned, anybody can do what they like or say what they like or dress as they like providing they don't break any laws or counsel others to break laws." Revolution? "All I know is that the advocates of revolution are usually the first people devoured by it when it comes." The board? "I go to my first meeting Tuesday (today). So far I haven't met all the gentlemen, so I can't say much. "The university is a $60 million a year business. That's a pretty big business. I suppose it helps if you have had experience with other large corporations but I don't think board positions should be limited only to those who have. "There are also people involved. It isn't all dollars and cents." Why, then, are the majority of the board members associated with big corporations? "I don't know. I can't answer that."
