AMS OK's referendu m
to change constitutio n
By MIKE FINLA Y
Ubyssey Council Reporte r
UBC student court Monday decided Alma Mater Societ y
presidential candidate Stan Persky is ineligible to be studen t
head .
Following the decision, a meeting of student council Mon day night approved a student referendum Feb . 28 to change the
AMS constitution clause that affects Persky .
Council also accepted a recommendation of the student
court that the AMS presidential election last week be declare d
null and void and that a by-election be held March 13 .
A total of 6,528 students voted for either arts presiden t
Persky or Brian Abraham, law 1, in the election .
The court's recommendation that the ballots, sealed in a n
AMS vault, be destroyed, was ruled unconstitutional by AM S
president Shaun Sullivan .A motion to destroy the ballots was
made by engineering president Lynn Spraggs .
But council decided later in the meeting by a close vote o f
10 to nine not to count the ballots .
If the referendum passes, Persky would be qualified to ru n
under the new specifications .
The amended article in the constitution would limit candidates to students who have been at UBC for one, rather tha n
two years .
In reference to the recent election confusion, council vote d

Co-ordinator candidates are Jill Cameron ,
cience 3, and Roger Plested, science 3 .
An advance poll will be held today in sout h
3rock and the education building from 11 :3 0
o 3 :30 p .m . Another will be held in residences
nd campus libraries from 5 p .m . to 9 p .m .
Polls Wednesday will be in north and south
;rock, the auditorium, all libraries, the bus sto p
nd Ponderosa cafes, and all main faculty build -
ings, from 10 a .m . to 4 p.m .
At an all-candidates meeting in Brock loung e
Monday noon, Kleyn said he was running as an
independent vice-presidential candidate .
"There's too much representation of smal l
cliques in this election," he said .
"I think an independent point of view ca n
reconcile opposing factions on council . "
Kleyn said he wanted to operate a co-o p
bookstore and cafeteria in the new student unio n
building .
Linde, editor of the UBC law journal Flea ,
said council should have the foresight to preven t
politicking among students .
"If we must engage in politics, let ' s take it
to Victoria," he said . "Our new president (Dr .
Kenneth Hare) is willing to listen to students .
Council should do so also . "
Linde said he had initiated a course evaluation survey in the faculty of law which mades it
one of only two in North America to have suc h
a survey.

that the action of five AMS executives violated the intention o f
student council when they interpreted counting the ballots t o
mean taking a total of the ballots only .
The motion passed nine to six with four abstentions .
"What was done was a mistake and council realizes this, "
said first vice-president Don Munton .
Second vice-president Kim Campbell, who was not consulted
about the executive's decision Feb . 6, agreed that the executive
had acted in bad faith .
"The executive did violate the intention of minute numbe r
10, " she said . "It might have been all right had they n o
directions from council regarding the counting of ballots, bu t
they did have such directions . "
Persky then moved that AMS treasurer Dave Hoye resig n
because he is not a member of the AMS . The issue was sent to
student court .
Hoye said there was no provision in the AMS constitutio n
stating that a director in the AMS must be a member of th e
society.
"This is a thing I have been living with for six months," h e
said . "I have put my best efforts into the job and I took the jo b
with the intention of finishing it . "
Persky said bylaw 2(2)4 of the constitution states "activ e
members shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of the society."
"I'll agree with that because that's what it says," sai d
Sullivan .
"I want to make it clear the motion in no way reflects on
Dave's activities as treasurer," Persky said . "I'm just playing
the game the way you have insisted the political game b e
played . "
After debate, council agreed the constitution does not specifically ;say an officer of the AMS must be a member .
However, Garth Brown, arts 4, challenged this after the .
meeting . Brown indicated that both the Societies Act of B .C .
and the Universities Act imply officers must be members .
The Societies Act states "the members of the society ma y
nominate, elect or appoint any of its members as directors . "
The Universities' Act says "the students in attendance at
the university appoint or elect a representative committee o f
themselves . "
"This at least makes Hoye's eligibility to hold office questionable," Brown said .
Persky tried to withdraw his motion against Hoye, claiming
the debate had become "disgraceful" .
But the motion that Hoye resign had been tabled . A motion
referring Hoye to student court was carried . However, council
voted almost unanimously to make Hoye an honorary membe r
of the AMS .
On destroying ballots, student senator Ray Larsen sai d
students could force the ballots to be counted by presenting a
petition of more than 500 names to council .

Name cooked u p
for homewrecker s
By ELGIN LE E
School of Human Nutrition and Family Ecology .
This could be the new name of the UBC home economics faculty if a proposed change is accepted by senat e
at its meeting Wednesday .
The proposal was made by home ec . dean Dr . Melvin
Lee .
A poll Wednesday found mixed student reaction t o
the change .
"It's too long and it won't catch on," said Ann Bradley ,
home ec . 3 .
"It gives a better image," said Suzanne King, hom e
e
ec . 4 . "Other universities have caught on to this chang
.
"
and it's given home economists a professional status
Other reactions :
"Oh NO . It's not practical . "
"Ecology is misleading, the whole thing is misleading . "
"It leaves out a lot of aspects . "
Nancy Shwartz, home economics president, said sh e
is pleased with the proposal .
"Home ec . in high school is not the home ec . in university," she said . "It's outdated and misleading .
"Housework, cooking and sewing are no longer th e
central study . Research in the medical and technologica l
field is today's topic in home economics .
"If the name is changed, others would associate them selves with our faculty . "
A meeting to discuss the proposal will be held fo r
home ec . students today at noon in Home Ec . 112 .
"Human nutrition is the science of food and nutrients ;
the chemistry, biochemistry and physiology of their utilization in cells," says an official senate brief accompanyin g
Dr . Lee's proposal .
"Anthropological, sociological and psychological aspect s
of food and nutrition provide research in human nutrition .
Ecology is the study of mutual relations of organisms wit h
their environment and with one another .
"The root of family ecology is the study of the famil y
p
in its environment .
"Courses in family relations, growth and development ,
decision-making and consumer economics, belong unde r
this category . Another under ecology are the environmenta l
factors .
"These subjects include : food, nutrition, clothing, tex tiles, housing and design .
"A new title would seem an appropriate representa tion of the new direction of this school . "
Students at Moncto n
strike over fee hik e
MONCTON, N .B . (CUP) — Universite de Moncton student s
left classes on a do-or-die strike Monday .
A Friday referendum endorsed the strike in protest of a
proposed tuition fee hike . Ninety per cent of the 1,100 student s
voted 8 to 2 in favor of a strike .
A strike committee has organized students for duty on th e
picket line .
The students claim they will not return to classes unti l
their demands are met .
They ask for a freeze in tuition fees at their present level ,
increased scholarships and bursaries, greater government subsidies to the university, and a definite government commitmen t
to a program of gradually phased-out tuition fees .
Strike committee head Gaetan Lemieux said he has nationalized the campus police force to help' him in the campaign against
scabs. The campus cops are students hired by the administration part-time .
The strike vote came after the board of governors approve d
fee hikes ranging from $75 to $110 beginning next September .
Moncton's fees now range from $430 to $525 .
Student council representatives tried to sway the board
from raising fees, but the board, said it had no alternative .
Though Moncton's fees are among the lowest in the province ,
student leaders point out the Acadian French students at Moncton and its affiliated College de Bathurst come from among th e
lowest income groups in New Brunswick .
A protest march of 800 Moncton students and another 35 0
from Bathurst are expected to petition the New Brunswick government of Louis Robichaud Tuesday .
Student councils at the University of New Brunswick an d
Mount Allision University have declared full support for th e
striking students .
Canadian Union of Students associate secretary Colin Leonard was at the Moncton campus last week advising the students .
In Ottawa Monday CUS issued a statement praising th e
Moncton students' courageous resistance to the fee hike .
"A tuition fee increase symbolizes what lower income families in New Brunswick justifiably fear the overwhelmin g
financial burden of higher education .
"An additional fee of $110 in fees will reinforce the Universite de Moncton as a preserve for the rich," the statemen t
said .
The union calls on the provincial government to step up
its aid to education.

from page 1
Poulus said the issues are the same no matte r
what political leanings the council has .
"I want to expose the book publishers wh o
are taking us for 20 per cent of the cost of ou r
books," he said . "These distributors are exploiting students . "
He also predicted a radical student counci l
next year which would be accessible to students .
Aven, said his position as engineering under graduate society treasurer gave him ample experience for the AMS treasury post .
"I don't think the three candidates really
have different ideas," he said . " We all want t o
see the operation of SUB carried out properly .
I think I can do that as well as the other two . "
Burke, who is assistant treasurer this year,
said insight is needed into the role the AMS
plays with clubs and undergraduate societies .
"Everyone talks about trimming bureaucracy ,
but I have the background knowledge to dea l
with it effectively. "
Kennedy proposed decentralization of the
AMS and more control by undergraduate societies over fee collecting .
"Undergraduate societies should be able to
levy a fee without interference by the AMS, "
he said .
"We should concentrate on providing speaker s
from varied disciplines so that students in al l
faculties can receive a truly liberal education ."
Miss Cameron said the main concern of next
year's co-ordinator will be the Student Unio n
Building.
"I'll talk to people and see how they want
SUB used," she said . "I'll use billboard space t o
inform students of what's happening on campus . "
Plested, assistant co-ordinator this year, als o
said students should be better informed of cam pus activities .
He said a common lounge should be established to promote understanding among faculties .
Candidates for ombudsman spent most of
the time explaining the new position .
The ombudsman is responsible for maintaining good feeling among students," Doyle said .
"I'll try to bring together different interests on
campus . "
Gilchrist favored the establishment of a fun d
for academic reform .
"I'd also like to see an emergency interest free student loan fund set up by the AMS, an d
some alternative to the present bookstore situation . "
Larson said it was a mistake for would-b e
ombudsmen to make policy statements .
"I will form my policies with regard to students' wishes," he said .
As well, barriers in the present AMS system ,
which he called inhuman, must be broken down .
Shaw said his first concern as ombudsma n
would be with individual problems .
"Council has forgotten about students," h e
said . "There's a real need for someone who talk s
to people . "
Get
a whole term's reading
under your belt
in only one week
If you are an average studen t
carrying a standard study load ,
you have the capacity to read—
in just one week—every single
textbook for every singl e
course in your curriculum .
What's more, you will fully understand and remember wha t
you read for a long, long time .
The way to this singular accomplishment is via Reading Dynamics—the educational break through that enables people t o
read thousands of words a
minute without skipping o r
skimming ; with excellent comprehension, great enjoyment
and remarkable recall . Learning to read
dynamically is like making the transitio n
from a bicycle to a Jaguar XKE .
Reading dynamics really works . In fact ,
it works so well and with such consisten t
success that every course is backed by Th e
Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics Institute' s
firm Performance Warranty to at leas t
triple your reading efficiency .
This is a minimum promise, for literall y
thousands of the Institute's graduates hav e
learned to read four to ten times faster .
They read an average novel in about an
hour—all the articles in TIME Magazin e
in 25 minutes — textbooks at the rate o f
15-20 pages a minute .
These people aren't "brains" or menta l
freaks . Many are individuals who onc e
read as slowly as you—poking along at th e
national average reading rate of 250-40 0
words per minute . So don't be embarrassed about your slow reading . Most of you r
friends—even your parents and teacher s
can't read any faster .
Reading Dynamics offers you a permanent escape from the sluggish reading ru t
and the negative effects it has on you r
grade average and free time .
g ev~l~
Although learning to read dynamically requires no specia l
talent or aptitude, mastering
this wonderful skill is a lot lik e
learning to play a musical instrument . This means that just
acquiring the simple, basic techniques won ' t turn you into a
speed phenomenon overnight .
You have to practice everyda y
— No great difficulty — sinc e
you can apply some of the Reading Dynamics "homework" t o
your normal school or pleasur e
reading .
Best of all, once you attain
and continue to use your ne w
reading skills, your speed gains are permanent .
Reading Dynamics is the definitive rapid
reading system in the world today . An d
the most flexible . You can use it for all
kinds of reading—even detailed, complex
materials like science, history and economics texts—in one-third the time it takes
you now .

Loaded agenda
faces senat e
A recommendation that the faculty of arts' foreign language
requirement be dropped for qualified students highlights a lis t
of reforms to come before senate Wednesday .
The recommendation, contained in a faculty committee re port on the subject, says students with grade 12 level in a language should not be required to study the language at university .
Also on the agenda are :
• presentation of a brief from the Alma Mater Society
on the question of an open gallery at senate meetings ;
• discussion of a library committee report on the library' s
financial situation ;
• a report from the committee on the role and organization of senate .
The role and organization committee proposes establishment of committees on long-range objectives and academi c
building needs .
Student senator Ray Larsen said Monday he expected th e
most heated debate on the language requirement question .
"This discussion will have great implications for the Frenc h
department," he said . "If the requirement is dropped, arts students will cease to be at a disadvantage as far as compulsory
courses are concerned . "

Education budget high but . . .
By STEPHEN JACKSO N
The provincial budget for higher educatio n
may be the biggest ever, but it is not big enough ,
say Alma Mater Society officials .
Premier Cece Bennett last week announce d
a record $53 million operating grant to be divided among UBC, Simon Fraser University,
and the University of Victoria .
The three will also share a $12 million capita l
grant for construction of new buildings .
Of this building grant, UBC will receive $ 5
millon, SFU the same amount, and U of Vic th e
remaining $2 million .
Division of the operating grant, done by the

The Ubyssey editorial board Monday slinke d
back into the paper's Brock basement office .
The editors, who claimed to have participated in a walkout last Thursday, found that novic e
reporters had taken over their old positions .
They begged novice editors to let them back int o
their old jobs .
Ubyssey editor-in-chief Danny Stoffman wa s
hesitant . He said the newcomers were more talented, far less stupid and altogether less slovenl y
than the veterans.
But tears flowed from the eyes of news edito r
Sue Gransby and senior editor Pat Hrushow y
burped in sorrow .
Hence, Stoffman relented, and the old Ubyssey editorial board was back in action .
" They never should have used the stupid
story in the first place," the editor-in-chief re marked . "I thought The Ubyssey had culturall y
revolted past that kind of thing . "

government is $12 million short of the $77 mil lion total calculated by the B .C . Assembly of
Students as the minimum amount required b y
the three institutions.
"I'm surprised the budget allowance is a s
large as it is, it's not enough," said Do n
Munton, Alma Mater Society first vice-president
and student senator .
"It's touch and go whether or not enrolmen t
will have to be restricted in September . "
"Each of the three university presidents ha s
issued public warnings last fall that if ther e
wasn't sufficient money it could mean curtailment of enrolment," said AMS president Shau n
Sullivan .
"It looks like there will have to be enrolment restrictions because of financial reason s
not academic reasons . "
When curtailment is for financial reasons ,
there is a real problem of where to cut, Sulliva n
said .
"I'm afraid that where the cuts are goin g
to be made, because it is where they are mos t
significant, is in the grad school, and this take s
away from the long-term development of this university . "
Educating a graduate student costs about fiv e
times as much as does a first or second year art s
student, Sullivan said .
Fewer students would probably be admitted
into freshman year and fewer into graduate
studies, he said . Also, more would be weede d
out in the intervening years .
Bennett has no foresight in educational problems, he said .
"I am absolutely appalled by the complete
lack of planning for the future of education in
this province . "
Sullivan said he would like to see an advisory board not dominated by government appointees, as the present one is .
Representatives of the universities, professions, research, business and labor and a minorit y
of government people should comprise the boar d
and assign priorities in education for all of B .C . ,
he said .
HOPE FOR LONG RANGE PRIORITIE S
Student senator Mark Waldman, who is on the role an d
organization committee, said he is looking forward to the discussion of the proposals .
"I hope the formation of the two new committees will mea n
an assignment of priorities in the university's long-range plan, "
he said . "I think it's good that senate is taking a critical loo k
at itself . "
AMS first vice-president Don Munton, elected to a vacan t
senate seat last week, said he hopes to see a committee set u p
to examine the open senate question .
SIT-IN CALLED OFF AFTER TALK S
An earlier threatened sit-in at the senate meeting was calle d
off after a meeting in International House Jan . 31 between
senators and students .
The sit-in was approved at a Jan . 9 meeting in Brock b y
600 students after student senators said they were considerin g
resigning from senate . Their resignations hinged on a decisio n
by senate not to open senate meetings to the public.
Since the sit-in was proposed, student leaders say communication has improved between students and senators .
At the International House meeting, economics prof . Dr .
Robert Clark proposed the formation of an ad hoc committee t o
discuss the senate secrecy . This is expected to be discussed a t
Wednesday's meeting.
Festival piled on hea p
Organizers of the festival of contemporary arts promise a
heap of fun in the armory at noon today.
The heap will be a huge pile of paper boxes, newspaper s
and other paper objects called 'Superpile .
Created by Helen Goodwin and her dancers, the event wil l
feature treasures hidden in the paper mound . These will includ e
a dozen signed works by Fain Baxter, scenic calendars by Dou g
Hawthorne and an Intermedia paper hoop .
Also at noon will be a program of live improvised electronic music by Wayne Carr in the recital hall of the musi c
building.
At the same time, the play Orison by Fernado Arrabel
will be staged in Freddy Wood . Director is Adrienne Winter mans . At 1 :30 p .m . in the armory, Intermedia produces more
light and sound effects, followed at 3 :30 p .m . by films made by
Vancouver School of Art students and local underground film
makers . The films go until midnight.
A highlight of the week will be the poet's market Wednesday, Valentine's Day . Seventeen blushing poets will read thei r
poems in the armory at noon before selling them to rich students . Earlier, two blues and psychedelic bands will groove at
11 :30 a .m . in the same place .
Also at noon Wednesday will be a presentation of experimental vocal music and visuals in the music recital hall . The
festival continues until Friday .

Motive s
Previously, we had not questioned the motives of
student council during the presidential election fiasco .
We had assumed, despite the aura of cynicism surrounding the obsession with candidate Stan Persky's eligibility, that an honest attempt was underway to ensur e
constitutionality of elections.
But no one who attended Monday night ' s AMS
meeting can help but doubt the motives of some studen t
councillors . For these same councillors who had pursued
the fine points of the constitution regarding Persky 's
eligibility were aghast at Persky,'s indelicacy in questioning the constitutionality of treasurer Dave Hoye's status.
Hoye, it turns out, is not a student. Although a key
member of the AMS executive, he is not a member o f
the AMS .
We do not question the efficiency and honesty o f
Hoye ' s performance as treasurer . Nor do we question hi s
wisdom in preferring not to add a course load to hi s
administrative duties . In fact, we hope a sabbatical yea r
arrangement can be worked out with . the university
whereby AMS officials can remain registered students —
and thus AMS members — yet avoid jeopardizing thei r
academic records by enrolling in courses„
But we must point out a glaring inequity . AM S
executives and councillors, many of whom were sharpl y
opposed to Persky ' s candidacy, used the constitution i n
an attempt to stop him, They did this despite the clea r
fact that the intent of the constitution is to ensure presidential candidates know the university and that Persky
easily fits this requirement . Meanwhile AMS executives
knew about Hoye 's questionable status—yet did nothing .
Council 's inept and partisan maneuvering can only
help candidate Persky politically . It is as if council
wanted to make a martyr out of this arts president who
has succeeded in gaining widespread support for a relatively progressive program .
Arroganc e
Student court ' s obiter dictum that the ballots in las t
Wednesday 's presidential election be destroyed withou t
being counted is a piece of fatuous arrogance .
We do not question the court's good faith in coming
to the decisions it reached . But we must register ou r
astonishment at its disregard for the more than 6,00 0
students who voted last Wednesday and its apparent disrespect for the democratic process itself .
The situation is simple . Students, some of them after
considerable thought and reflection, exlercised thei r
democratic right to choose a president . Even if the election itself — as a result of student council bungling —
is invalid, the students have a right to know the result s
of their voting.
The court's arrogance was carried to Monday ' s council meeting by the engineering representative who move d
a motion endorsing the court recommendation . The motion did not prove feasible when it was pointed out tha t
the court ' s recommendation was — ironically — unconstitutional .
Council hardly improved matters, however, when i t
decided not to count the ballots . The decision could mean
that the results of Wednesday ' s elections will remai n
locked up for a year, then destroyed .
There is talk of a petition to urge council to reverse
its decision on counting the ballots . The petition deserves
student support . The desire to find out what happene d
last Wednesday has more behind it than respect for th e
democratic process. Being human, most students ar e
curious — they just want to know who won . And so ,
we imagine, do the two men who ran for office .

'Don't split '
Editor, The Ubyssey :
You stated in your editoria l
of Jan . 25 that " the influenc e
of one home economics student on what happens in council is approximately 16 time s
the influence of one arts student ." However, at present ,
this arts student doesn't hav e
any representation on th e
council due to the fact tha t
the arts president has decided
that council is irrelevant an d
has opted out . I agree that
council is not representative bu t
I don't think that splitting th e
present council into an executive council and an assembly o f
45 students is the answer . All
that will accomplish is to
isolate the so-called "brock
bureaucracy" even more tha n
at present from the genera l

n . I disagree . The
Ubyssey's issue of Tuesday an d
Thursday were unbelievably
accurate, impartial, and fair in
election coverage . I say "unbelievably" because I have som e
general reservations about th e
paper's policies ; but more be cause the situation could easil y
have been rendered more 'suspicious' than it was . Counci l
attempted to make a wise decision, and was not faulted fo r
the attempt . The AMS execu-
tive were left with few options, all undesirable ; the wisdom of their choice was questioned (and rightly so), but no t
their motivation . Wednesda y
night's flare-ups and namecalling ("fascist" or "idiot" ac cording to political preference )
was understandably lacking i n
'frank communication and reasoned dialogue', due to th e
electric electoral emotionalism .
But The Ubyssey maintaine d
an exemplary attitude throughout. I think that for once The
Ubyssey deserves our commendation .

Editor, The Ubyssey :
The cry is "foul" ; the gam e
is "let's - blame - the - Ubyssey" ,
and the culprit is our very own
student senator, Mark Waldamn .
If Mr . Waldman is not ye t
aware that an intelligent person recognizes a cliche whe n
he sees one ; that language is
usually the best indication of
phoniness or sincereity in a
given argument ; that Mr . Abraham (and many other candidates) used trite, meaningles s
political statements ; and tha t
the Ubyssey was advising th e
student NOT against responsible government, nor against
Mr . Abraham, but against Madison Avenue language ; then I
would advise Mr. Waldman t o
return to the English 100 classroom .

I was very surprised at yesterday's all candidates' meeting to hear candidate Rober t

for a fact that his campaign i s
being run by a fraternity an d
that he has the backing o f

Ontology?
Editor, The Ubyssey :
What many people do no t
know is that the Ontologica l
Society is merely the workin g
a r m of a pseudo-religiou s
group calling themselve s
"Emissaries of Divine Light "
'with "headquarters" in B .C . a t
100 Mile House, and the address of their American "head quarters" is Sunrise Ranch ,
Eden Valley, Loveland, Colo .
That, in fact, the Ontologica l
Society and the Emissaries of
the Divine Light are one and
the same thing.
The Ontological Society ha s
permission to go onto campu s
every Wednesday noon to hold
meetings, talking a very intricate, elaborate sort of philosophy which is impressive t o
some who are finding it difficult to see pattern or purpos e
in life . This Society held a
Symposium entitled "Scienc e
of Survival" on campus Feb . 3
and 4 . They believe they can
show you how to make specifi c
changes in your life to make
specific changes in the world
pattern .
A Symposium is defined a s
"an intellectual and varied discussion on a given topic ." Th e
"key" speakers on this symposium were in actuality : Lord
Martin Cecil—"Bishop" of th e
Emissaries of Divine Light ;
Michael Cecil, his son—"minister" of the Emissaries of Di vine Light ; LeRoy Jensen—
closely connected with the
Emissaries of Divine Light ;
Dr . Ronald Polack—"server "
of the Emissaries of Divine
Light .
While a university should b e
devoted to freedom of thought ,
one hopes reason will prevail
in the academic atmosphere .

THE
CANDIDATES' STATEMENTS
VICEPRESIDENT
ROB KLEY N
Although it has not extensively been brought out in m y
printed platform, one of m y
main positions on the AM S
council is that it has alway s
represented power cliques o n
campus, and not the individua l
student .
I feel that by avoiding th e
concentration of power in a
small group of students b y
electing an independent who i s
not committed to a minority ,
the best interests of student s
as individuals can be attained .
One of these areas is residence . Also the registratio n
mess must be eliminated, an d
pre-registration made availabl e
to more students, these points
are important to all students ,
and not only to a minority interest. I urge a good measur e
of support for this platform .
CAIREY LINDE
First of all, I want you to
know that 1 am not associate d
with the present AMS execuive and I do not have nor d o
I want its support . Nor hav e
I been associated with an y
campus political group .
Instead I have involved my self this year with local wor k
in the faculty of law where I
originated and edited the la w
journal and organized a cours e
evaluation survey .
I propose to bring neede d
change in practice and personality to the office of Vice President . I shall put cultur e
and education back on the lis t
of priorities, and work hard
for greater student control i n
the bookstore, housing, traffic ,
food services, and the library .
If politics is needed it shall be
directed towards Victoria, and
not towards fellow students .
The issue is clear — we vote
for a meaningful change or
else we perpetuate the reign of
ineffecutal good intentions .
HANK POULU S
We WILL have an open, active student government next
year. I would like to add student-faculty cooperation to :
—fight a publisher-distributer monopoly on texts . We
CAN get fair prices.
—s tart a communications
and resource centre to which
any student can go in the pur-
suit of academic and creativ e
interests.
The AMS CAN be more to
students than an administrative blorg .
TREASURER
DONN AVEN
I believe I can successfull y
fulfill the duties, as they are
now stated, of AMS treasurer .
Further, I propose that a
study of present bureaucrati c
methods be undertaken, with
a view to eliminating some of
the red tape that presently en tangles students who activel y
participate in student affairs .
This is not an idealistic "human government" approach ,
but rather one designed to
eliminate on a practical basi s
one of the major complaints
that students have about th e
AMS .
I am strongly in favor of decisive action to be taken o n
the present housing survey ,
and in conjunction with thi s
idea, that The Ubyssey b e
more fully utilized by the AM S
as a communication medium .
Too few students are aware of
the work presently being don e
by the AMS, and I would cer- tainly be in favor of a more
complete, co-ordinated information source .
To summarize : my experience speaks for me and I ask
You as students to consider m e
capable of rational decisions ,
interested in student affairs ,
and concerned enough to liste n
to the problems of all students
on this campus .
BRIAN BURK E
The following are a few o f
the ideas for which I will press
as treasurer :
1 . Assignment of a CUS fiel d
worker to B .C . to help organize the B .C . Assembly of Stu dents programming. 2 . More financial support for BCAS's
high school visitation scheme .
3 . A university promotion fun d
established from AMS year-en d
surpluses to promote higher
education during provincia l
elections . 4 . Re-negotiation o f
the terms of reference of th e
advisory committees to th e
president to widen their powers . 5 . Continuing and extending financial support for preparatory research into co-o p
housing . 6 . Expansion of residential college system established at Totem Park this year .

in his policy orientation .
1. Decentralize the AMS .
Give all undergraduate societies the right to determin e

involvement .
2. Priority on culture and
academics . We live in a world
of change and the AMS shoul d
be financially aiding all pro grams that help to give students a broad interdisciplinary
education on issues of contemporary social concern.
3. Human government . Set
up a commission to seriousl y

LORNE SHAW
The duties of an ombudsma n
can be summarized in on e
phrase — people and thei r
needs . The areas in which I
feel this post can be most effective are as follows :
1 . Dealing with s t u d e n t
grievances against the AMS ,
Faculty and Administration .
This is the primary concern o f
an Ombudsman and will involve talking with the peopl e
in these areas about the problems students raise .
2. Acting as a liason between students and the AMS ;
bringing student opinion t o
council . This will involve visiting regularly residences an d
common rooms and spendin g
time simply talking to people .
3. Representing the needs o f
presently ignored c a m p u s
groups such as commuters an d
freshman . Positive action in
these areas would involve organizing a car pool co-ordination service and actively participating in frosh retreat .
These are some of my ideas .
If you feel they are worthwhil e
then I would ask for your vot e
on Wednesday.

The joint committee of Education and Physical Educatio n
Undergraduate Societies is proud to announce the main attraction of our Education-Phys . Ed week (Feb . 12-16) on campus . I
refer of course to the BOAT RACE . But this is not going to b e
just another boat race ; this is to be the boat race that alumna e
and undergrads will talk about for years to come . It is the boa t
race with a difference !
February 14, at noon .
This event will be held in Empire Pool . That's right — th e
swimming pool located beside War Memorial Gym . We hereby
issue a challenge to the presidents of the undergraduate societie s
to send a team of four competent boat racers .
The customary procedure of drinking beer will be integrated with a genuine race ACROSS THE POOL on or in an y
floating object . (This may not be a boat and may not be enginepropelled .) It may be a rubber inner tube, pair of water wings ,
or whatever you choose, but remember — it must support you r
contestant all the way across the pool . Each team is to provide
its own supporting vehicle .
All drinking will be done on the pool deck before eac h
competitor takes to the - - brrr --- - water . The race wil l
be run in relay fashion, with two members of each team on
either side of the pool .
The councils of Education and Physical Education challenge you to be at this first annual one-of-a-kind boat race . The
date again is noon on the 14th of February (tomorrow yo u
clod!) . The place is Empire Pool . Representative teams of four
boat racers and supporting object should be ready to go a t
12 :35 p .m .
Fret not non-swimmer . Life guards will be provided — ou r
own, of course .

complete their reading lists, and go to churc h

Starting with Homecoming in the fall when Educatio n

and Jock Mock ; a film, The L-Shaped Room ; and a fantastic
Christmas party for kids, complete with Santa Claus ; the same
Santa Claus, lush that he is, who has led our boat race cre w
to top positions every time out Well done guys !
We held a tremendous Future Teachers' Conference an d
are now initiating a unique night school project . But let ' s get
down to the basics for a minute — our illustrious Alma Mate r
Society representative, Bob Gilchrist, won the dubious distinction of becoming number one shit shoveller during aggi e

home, but where the hell's the fluorient you ordered ?

Remember . .
"All cattle, front and centre . "
That's the rallying cry on Trustees Day, March 12 .
School officials — the superintendents and the trustees —
arr .ve each year for supposedly one reason, to interest student s
in their districts . They bring brochures, slide-shows, and sale s
pitches . And lately, trouble .
Students eager for positions and too dumb to read thei r
B .C . Teacher Federation booklets have been verbally committin g
themselves, often into unbearable teaching situations . Primary
specialists have been stuck with grade sevens and Geograph y
majors with Phys . Ed . classes .
These officials have no legal right to ask you to sign a con tract ; technically you cannot sign until graduation . But all the
same, you're in one hell of a fix if you do commit yourself . By
the time you yank yourself loose, it may (be too late for 'a permanent position .
So come March 12, go — see the displays, talk to the district representatives . Find out which areas appeal to you . Bu t
do not sign a contract . Do not commit yourself in any way .
Better a placement based on four month's thought than a sna p
decision on Trustees Day .
After all, there's a teacher shortage, remember?

Just weigh t
Education has more weight to throw around than any othe r
faculty . Or so says the voting system of the Alma Mater Society .
Based on attendance at last year's polls, Education is th e
only group on campus to have a weighted vote of three, i n
comparison to one of Arts and two of Engineering .
The system works as follows : one vote for a poll of one t o
500, another for 500 to 1,000, and a third for 1,000 plus . Las t
year, Education was the only faculty to get more than 1,00 0
voters out .
The annual revision of the AMS constitution is once mor e
underway, and the weighted vote is presently being scrutinized .
The decision has yet to be finalized, however, so when th e
polls open next Tuesday and Wednesday, get out there an d
vote . All 3,000 of you . We did it before and we can do it again .
Thumbs u p
Vancouver's high schools are monumental failures in educating their students .
Ask any student who is presently chained to their institutio n
by social pressure . Some refuse to accept the trivial datum an d
useless knowledge (????) of these farcical establishments an d
have enough guts to quit, to say to hell with it !
Vancouver ' s high schools have failed because their training
environment suppresses learning . The student is trained an d
bred to pass meaningless examinations' in order to enter societ y
with a graduate certificate .
Society is now beginning to change ; that piece of paper i s
accepted for what it is — a thin slice of dead wood .
It is no evaluation of the bearer's knowledge, wisdom, o r
intelligence . It is an evaluation of his patience, will power, an d
pain endurance ability .
Vancouver needs a freer attitude in its secondary educatio n
institutes — freedom for learning ; freedom from the socia l
demands that have attached their entrails to our educatio n
system .
As Education students you are told that such freedom wil l
occur in the near future and that it is actually happening now ,
but these changes don't occur overnight, they take time . B .S . !
Make it happen now, as soon as possible! If you have idea s
about freeing the student from his present situation, appl y
them when you teach .
Listen to and learn from the free thinkers on the faculty .
Carry out their ideas next fall .
If you fail ; if you are squashed ; QUIT and work for a fre e
school (there will be more of these in Vancouver as the yea r
progresses) .
If you are honestly interested in Vancouver's educatio n
system and in the pupils who are being so sadly abused the n
you can do it .
If you aren't or if you feel you can't, I pity you!
Exciting program starte d
A new and exciting project has been organized by the Education Undergraduate Society .
It will test the talents of our faculty members .
Volunteer student teachers have been turne d
loose on the unlearned masses of Vancouver .
In a small class situation, students with academic problems can get help from a qualifie d
(choke) person without paying through the nose .
With only six students to a class, personal difficulties can be more easily overcome .
The students have a say in what they wis h
to take during each week of the six week
programme .
Classes are held at Killarney Senior Secondary every Tuesday evening, and depending o n
class response, run from between one and tw o
hours .
Enrolment includes 300 of the 1000 students
in the school and is "staffed" by 46 members of
our faculty .
The response to this project seems to indicate a very serious need for more programs o f
the same type .
Almost one-third of Killarney students fel t
they needed extra help . This is not due to slackness of Killarney teachers . The school simpl y
has too many students and too little time to deal
with them . Each future teacher should realize
that this is a common problem .
Perhaps an enlarged program carried out by
sincere student teachers will alleviate some of
the problems caused by over-crowded and over worked schools .
This being the first year for this experimenta l
programme, we naturally want complete success .
Variety varies
Education's second annual Variety Show arrives Thursday, Feb . 15 .
'Some 15 acts, ranging from poetry reading
to folk singing, will present a two-hour show in
Ed . 100 at noon .
Three faculty judges will choose winners fo r
the prizes of $25, $15, and $10 .
Due to the small size of the auditorium and
the enthusiasm of students, Educational Television will film the show and present it in th e
Ed. Lounge .
For this reason only one school is being use d
this year, and only secondary students in thei r
final three years are taking part .
If a success, (and reaction thus far has bee n
fantastic), the operation will be expanded nex t
year . More faculty members will be able to tak e
part, and more Vancouver schools will be used .
School authorities and parents are optimisti c
about future expansion .
Long range possibilities for the project include day classes and credits for participatin g
teachers . We believe that such a plan could b e
beneficial both to the students and to the student teachers .
We only hope that enough people who ar e
truly interested in becoming devoted teacher s
will give a little of their valuable time to assis t
a student who really needs help and who can
only repay you with a simple "Thanks . "
Debased degre e
is students ' aim
Assuming that Joe 'Student (an assumed name
obviously) is oblivious to the universally accepted concept of the conceptual universit y
student studiously studying to gain a gainsworthy
but utterly degraded degree of sheepless sheep skin, he will go through his four or five years, i f
not more or less, with the sheepish notion o f
achieving notable and creditable results resultin g
in credit in the bank, since he banks on desirabl e
marks which he markedly desires in his course
of studies for which he curses more than h e
studies, even for the tests which he detests bu t
writes for the right to stay and play gamel y
at this game of life, compiling corruptible bu t
compelling ideas that ideally should be completely and explosively expelled with or withou t
explanations of these momentarily fabulous fad s
expounded by public figures mounting waves of
publicity wavering through controversial subjects subject to controlling influences or inflections of public or private opinion in previou s
publications or any other of the mass media used
as the medium of common communication by
commercial interests interested in the amazin g
proportions of amused students like you who
forgot that this is all an assumption in one
sentence and even if you remembered, so what?

MOUSKE-JOCQUE REVUE

Dumb jock ?
Dumb .Jock eh? Well you cruddy artsman, or whateve r
the hell you are, we end up taking many of the same course s
as you, plus some from science . Granted, it's not nearly as roug h
as medicine, or engineering (in work load), but it's no slacke r
than Arts, Education, or Science .
During our four year Bachelor of P .E . program, we tak e
two years of English ; first year Math, Chemistry, Biology, and
Psychology ; senior courses in Anatomy and Physiology (take n
with Rehabilitation Medicine types) ; an outside single major ( 3
senior courses of Eng ., Math, etc .) ; plus at least twelve units
of academic electives . That's only about two-thirds of ou r
degree, you say.
Well, we have some P .E . theory courses in addition —
courses such . as Principles, History, Administration of P .E . ; tw o
health courses, plus five electives such as Physiology of Exercise ,
Kinesiology, and Tests and Measurements . All these course s
are half a year long and worth 1 and a half units . Some ar e
slack, some are tough — depending on the prof .
Then, we also have nine units of one-unit activities such a s
gymnastics, basketball, swimming, etc . In these we have to b e
knowledgeable in all aspects of the game — tactics, rules officiating, etc . We also have to demonstrate proficiency an d
teaching skill .
Some of these are a real "cup of tea", verging on th e
ridiculous. How can you take a full term of bowling, for instance . However, you'd be rather surprised at the detail in a
course like Track and Field .
No, you don't have to be an athlete to be in P .E . In fact ,
the proportion of extramural athletes in P .E . is probably n o
greater than any other faculty . All the activities have an introducting course and the overall aim is toward teaching th e
sport .
Because of these activity courses and the obvious supposition that they're slack, we need 69 units to graduate . It is a
fairly relaxed program but quite in comparison with other s
at this university .
Learning ?
Okay children, you may now go outside for recess .
We've all heard that at one time or another when we wer e
kids . Well, we're no longer children but we are still treate d
that way .
How many classes do you attend just because the prof take s
attendance mentally or otherwise? Just for the hell of it, ski p
every class tomorrow which you think is useless or which yo u
feel you can put to better use . Then the following class day go
and find out how many stayed away .
Offhand, I'd say very few people have the strength of thei r
convictions to actually buck the system .
Of course, we then come to the problem of differing values .
To some, it is enough to go to a lecture, tape the prof's ideas ,
memorize them, back them up with some facts from a text, an d
spew them back on the exam . This, I submit, is not learning .
The only reasoning required is in the organization o f
"learned" material .
This is supposed to be a university ; a place where ne w
thoughts, new ideas should be nourished — a place which wil l
produce the leaders who can solve the many problems facin g
our society and the teachers who can motivate and open th e
doors to new experience! Instead, it has become a factory wher e
robots hot off the production line fill the vacant spots left b y
human beings . Bloody awful predicament !
Students haven't the wealth of knowledge or experience t o
comment on matters concerning their education, such as : curriculum, professors, administration, facilities, etc . Damn it all ,
come down out of your ivory tower and try talking to a few !
You'll probably find some with good, fresh ideas, and probabl y
a fairly good notion of what is going on .
Just because they haven't been around as long doesn't mea n
they might not be able to look at a course from a different angle .
The mark of the true teacher is realization that he can learn a s
much from his students as they can learn from him .
System outdated ?
The views expressed in this editorial are my own and . not
necessarily those of the editor or other students in the school .
With all due respects to the good teachers in the School of
PE and Rec . there is a long overdue change needed to brin g
the level of our program to that of other progressive PE departments across Canada .
In order to raise our standards to those of the rest of the
university we need a change in the structure and some ne w
blood on the faculty .
It's not enough to lecture from ten year old set of notes .
Neither is it enough to hand out oral assignments to a class o f
forty and consider this total involvement . It is merely an eas y
way out of preparing for a class .
PE students have traditionally kept quiet . Now, perhaps, a
few will start thinking, if they haven't already done so . A few
will start voicing their opinions .
If you have something to say but wish to protect yourself ,
you can do so by writing for The Ubyssey anonymously . Don't
be malicious, and try to be constructive, if possible .
— E .R.Y .
Schools for everyone .
Are our school buildings obsolete? This i s
the question that must be seriously considere d
before great sums of money are poured int o
the building of more traditionally planne d
schools .
Traditionally, schools have been built solel y
as facilities for educating the youth of society .
To this end they have succeeded . Yet, thes e
structures, built at great expense to the tax payer, lie unused for many hours per week, an d
not uncommonly, through the entire eight week s
of the summer holidays . How can a society ,
striving for efficiency, justify this disuse? Ho w
can it justify the expense ?
In several communities in Eastern Canada ,
this lack of forethought has been overcome . Th e
present trend is to the building of Multipurpos e
Education Complexes . In Vaudreuil, Quebec ,
"La Cite des Jeunes" is an example of one suc h
complex . .In this case, the complex combines a
technical institute and a secondary school whos e
facilities have been built with the idea of thei r
being used not only by the students but by th e
whole community .
"The collection of buildings at the "La Cite "
was designed for maximum efficiency . Formerly ,
each school required a library, gymnasium, cafeteria, chapel, audio - visual services and ar t
studios . All of these installations were costl y
and yet served only a limited number of pupils .
To reunite several buildings on one site permitted avoiding this costly duplication of services . By a system of efficient rotation al l
students of the different institutions are able
to benefit from the more complete services .
At the "Cite des Jeunes" each of the institutions contributes to the total benefit of th e
entire complex . Thus, the trade school withi n
the water purification plant not only provide s
the purification and sewage services but also
trains technicians in the laboratories . Also, the
central heating plant looks after all the buildings of the campus at considerably reduced costs ,
while teaching students the techniques of suc h
;plants .
The Sports Centre is used by all student s
during the day, and in the evenings and o n
weekends by adults who also profit from corn-
petent instructors . The Cultural Centre wil l
offer a library of 125,000 volumes and a vas t
auditorium will be available to all for widely
varied productions .
Because the complex is entirely self supporting, Technology students make necessar y
repairs to any defective equipment, while th e
recreation students provide programmes for bot h
the students and the community . The Secondar y
School students take charge of providing th e
evening adult courses be they academic, technical, or artistic .
How close is Vancouver to such a complex ?
Presently, plans are under way for the buildin g
of a combination school and community centre .
This new multipurpose complex, to be built a t
ritannia Secondary School, will make all th e
facilities (classrooms, shops, labs, library, gymnasium, etc.) available not only to the students ,
but to all the individuals in the community .
This, if the trend continues, will eliminate th e
building of schools and community centres a s
separate entities . No longer will the communit y
centre have to rent the school building for a
programme .
A full time professional recreation directo r
will be an integral part of such a complex . Al l
the programming outside of school activities wil l
be the responsibility of the director . The tota l
programme will be planned by both school officials and the recreation director . This cooperation, extending throughout the staff of th e
complex, will enable the proper development o f
the total programme and make for the mos t
effective use of the facility .
This is the beginning of a trend which mus t
continue if we are to contribute to fulfilling th e
needs of the community both educationally an d
recreationally! Not only is forethought in th e
planning of such complexes essential but ther e
is a need for better understanding between th e
professional educators and recreationsists wh o
will jointly administrator such a complex .
All too often it has been found that a facility ,
no matter how well planned, is almost useles s
without a fully competent staff to administer it .
The continuation of this trend, and it must continue, can do nothing but improve our presentl y
obsolete system!

PIED PIPER
Future teachers congregate
So you hate bubblegummers, eh ?
Pity the Ed . US ; they played host to 325 of
them for the weekend of January 25-26 .
Occasion? It was the first Pacific northwes t
future teachers conference to be held at UBC .
The conference was a bright, well organize d
and quick-moving success .
High school and university students fro m
throughout the Pacific northwest toured the
campus, discussed topics ranging from professionalism to sex and the university student and
sat in on education lectures .
The sponsor's conference held in conjunction
with the PNWFTC was a successful experiment
with many prominent educators in attendance .
The greatest single achievement was th e
enthusiastic response of the university student s
to establish a Pacific North West university
education council union .
This will give students from the high school s
an opportunity to see what all of the education
colleges in B .C . and Washington have to offer .
It will also be of benefit to university students in their bid for a pre-professional association with the teaching federation .

Open car rall y
Thursday noo n
The Physical Education and Education Faculties are sponsoring an open car rally Feb . 15—
gratis .
Starting in front of Brock Hall, the rally wil l
commence at 12 :30, each car leaving at one
minute interval s
The route will take approximately an hour
to drive over, and will be fairly easy since thi s
is a fun-event. Entrants are required to supply
their own vehicles (surprise! surprise!) and
should bring along a map of the city. Special
awards will be given to the best male and bes t
female drivers and navigators, and for the drive r
with the most demerits . Everyone is invited t o
join in the fun Feb . 15—Don't forget .

Just what goes on day after day in that monstrous buildin g
on the outskirts of campus, beside which can be detected a
cement pond rather larger than the library pond ?
Several things may be noted in connection with this building . To begin with there is a continuous stream of greenness i n
and out ('snot what you may think) .
Another significant factor is the odious odor which pour s
out of this building and seems to hang like smog at nose level .
Not only are the visual and olfactory senses stimulated eithe r
directly or indirectly (who knows!) by this edifice (gym, yo u
clod!) but auditory senses are also affected .
However, these are only superficial observations . On close r
investigation (after a detailed study) it was found that the gree n
stream is composed of students in the School of Physical Education and Recreation (jocks) ; the odor is caused by the manufacture of a by-product commonly known as "sweat" ;
But, just what effects do these weird phenomena have o n
the rest of the campus population? To answer this question w e
have interviewed a few representatives of the relatively significant, but not extremely prominent faculties .
The question asked was, "What is your misconception o f
Physical Education, i .e . what does Physical Education mean to
you?"
The results :
Home Economics : "Sweat . . . what a way to ruin fabric! "
Nursing : "Significant factor in the overcrowding of hospitals "
Forestry : "Wooden gym floors . "
Agriculture : "Well, if sweat could be used as a fertilize r
Arts : "Like man, it means big, beautiful muscles or love . "
Science : "Just a minute and I'll work it out with my slid e
rule ."
Engineers : We regret that at the time of the survey th e
geers were too busy playing with their toy trucks on Main Mall .
Education : "No comment . "
VIEW FROM THE TO P
ZEK E
Well friends and neighbours, in case you didn't realize it ,
the PEUS White Globetrotters Intramural Basketball team ha s
once again captured the coveted Intramural "A" league Championship Trophy .
The PEUS team looked not on this game as just anothe r
championship match . This was a game of pride, a game of
honour, for the championship that the White Globetrotters ha d
lost to Forestry one year earlier was the 1st championship i n
four years that the 'trotters had lost .
In postgame ceremonies .at the Fraser Hilton Roger Smit h
was presented with the game ball for his fine two-way game .
Frank Dyck was presented with the MVP award and Bruc e
Robertson received the Come-back player of the year awar d
(last year he was having problems, i .e . he got hitched) . Guttiest
Player award went to another rookie—Dave Backie who playe d
with a knee injury that would have kept most men out of action .
As a result of a specially staged contest dreamed up an d
sponsored by the "tree" crew (as they still wanted to win some thing) it was P .E .'s Zeke Rattray who staggered off with th e
"Biggest Bladder" award or as it came to be called "The Longest Pause that Refreshes . "
For any of you that may be interested the championshi p
trophies will be presented to the team members at their respective home towns during various local festivities .
Frank Dyck will be accepting the Trophies on behalf o f
the team at the Annual Matsqui Bull Show — to be held some time in May. Atta boy Frank .
Dave Backie will be receiving the trophies in conjunctio n
with the annual New Westminster May Day celebrations usually
held in March .
The annual Oak Bay Regatta held sometime in August wil l
be the place where Bruce Robertson will accept the trophies .
Roger "Apache" Smith will get his (pun?) in conjunctio n
with the Annual New Hazelton Frontier Days Celebration hel d
every Saturday night .
Bob Murray will accept the trophies during the Cresto n
"Burn-a-Barn Week" celebrations in sympathy with the loca l
Doukhobor contingent .
At the annual Essondale Spring Tea and Fashion Show (hel d
early in June) Geordie "Golden Boy" Caldow will once agai n
receive the trophies on behalf of the team .
Bryan "Zeke" Rattray has the privilege of representin g
P .E . at the Annual Osoyoos Cherry Carnival, held on Dominion
Day .
If any of you happen to be in these particular communitie s
during these celebrious moments, team advisor professor Franki e
Gnup advises you to attend .
Apparently there is now a movement in the P .E . faculty to
esee the mem entos of the PEUS White Globetrotters, victorious
exploits permanently enshrined in the B .C . Sports Hall of Fame
as not even the Boston Celtics can boast of a record that contains only one loss in five years of competitive basketball .
Well that's all for now and as an old trapper friend of min e
used to say, "Never say whoa in a tight spot ."

URBAN RENEWAL QUESTION
To solve or not to solve
By NORMAN GIDNE Y
Urban renewal is social disaster.
It was this and more to a panel of five experts at the 'UBC school of social work who discussed whether or not urban renewal is a physical solution to a social problem.
"We're slightly disenchanted with what's happened in respect to urban renewal's effects . It' s
physical action resulting in social disaster," sai d
Trudeau backe d
Trudeau : the best man for the West .
This is the belief of a new campus group
determined to see justice minister Pierre Eliot
Trudeau elected Liberal party leader and Canada's fifteenth prime minister .
The non - partisan group, led by politica l
science grad students Gerry Hbldrinet an d
George Haynal, already has 15 members and i s
pressing for more .
Haynal says he sees Trudeau as the best choic e
for a number of reasons .
"He's a dynamic personality, a convincin g
federalist ,a thinker, and has been tremendousl y
successful in parliament," he said .
The fundamental philosophy of the Back
Trudeau group, he said, is that confederatio n
is a delicate balance between the provincial an d
federal powers and that a strong spokesman is
needed for the federal authority to make th e
country coherent as well as united .
"We have no real political affiliation," sai d
Haynal . "We're simply concerned about th e
quality of Canadian politics . "
He said the aim of the campaign on campu s
is to demonstrate western support for Trudeau .
"We've heard that Trudeau won't run for
the Liberal leadership if he doesn't have a sho w
of support for the West .
"So we're going to try to get a lot of signatures to show him he has supporters here . "
The group will try to get Trudeau to speak
at UBC as soon as he announces his candidac y
for the leadership .
An organizational meeting of the Back Trudeau group will meet Friday noon in Bu . 204 .
Larry Bel] ., researcher with United Community
Services .
"The trouble with you social workers is tha t
you're a bunch of bleeding hearts," Bob Collier ,
assistant professor in the UBC school of planning ,
told 50 social workers .
'Social workers sympathized with the poor
and downtrodden in the urban renewal areas bu t
don't offer any concrete solutions for organizin g
them, he said .
"The main problem is social workers remai n
outside the political streams . "
"You can't come to grips with the urban renewal problems until you become political . "
Bruno Freschi, an architect with the firm o f
Erickson-Massey, said urban renewal is a physical solution to a physical problem .
"I have to see urban renewal as part of a
larger fabric —• loosely called the city . It has
been the most convenient way of performin g
major surgery in a city," he said .
Mrs . Hilda Simons of UBC's extension department said one problem is that people still
tend to view property as sacred .
"Property decays, transportation systems be come totally in adequate . We have the technolog y
to build any kind of city we want to," she said .
"Urban renewal is a political umbrella ., no t
a solution", said Gerrard Farry, a researcher i n
the city planning department.
"Under it are civic improvement groups, professional associations, real estate interests an d
others," he said .
"Our cities are essentially Model-T style .
They're somewhat anti-social, not economic, hav e
many hazards, are under represented politicall y
and overgoverned bureaucratically . Urban renewal is seen as a way of overcoming these problems", Farry said .
"Part of the rules of the game of urban :renewal is to go out and find lots of social problems," said Bell .
"Nobody has proven that urban renewal alleviates the problems . "

"All we receive from CUS is a barrage o f
mass-mailed literature and a receipt .
"I expect to come back with a firm promis e
that CUS will juice up their West coast operation instead of referring to us as country bumpkins," he said .
In Ottawa Friday, associate secretary Daphn e
Kelgard denied anyone from the secretaria t

"I don't particularly appreciate the reference
because I was born in B .C . myself," she said .
Students with gripes or praise for first-yea r
courses can air them tonight at 7 :30 p .m . in the

first year courses.
The committee will also discuss the results
of a questionnaire given to first year student s
to examine the Arts I programme .
Students from higher years are also invited .
The committee consists of five faculty members, chaired by classics prof. Dr . William
Dusing. "This was done two years ago and wa s

year of student life . "
A second open session on first year problem s

Students' war
What's a musical?
hard work and tim e
' Battle vs world for power on the university front '
By JOHN KELSE Y
Canadian University Press
While college editors spent January, 1968 ,
lancing obscenities through clouds of pot smoke ,
the war between students and the world escalate d
quietly .
Noisy protests erupted in only five cities ,
down somewhat from November's anti-Dow pro test fever, but legislative battles for studen t
senators were won in five more .
A University of Western
Ontario student dramatically
ascended to the board of governors, and the university o f
Alberta rejected a studen t
governor . "We don't believ e
in student power," said U of
A student president Al Anderson .
Three University of B .C .
senators asked their constitu ents if they could quit because
KELSEY
they weren't getting anywhere, and the university of Calgary's academic president did qui t
because he couldn't talk to his board .
And across the country students cooled it i n
drunk tanks as winter carnival fever highballe d
through central Ontario, Manitoba and the Lake head .
The most visible battlefronts last month wer e
in Quebec City and Waterloo, Ontario . At Waterloo Lutheran, the university fired two professors, George Haggar and Gray Taylor . Both
were good teachers, but both were loudly critica l
of the university and its administration .
Four hundred students retaliated with a clas s
boycott and day-long teach-in Jan . 17, but the
student council backed down and refused to sup port the action . The Canadian Association o f
University Teachers is investigating, noboby' s
been rehired, and the issue is in for a several
month stall.
STUDENTS SEE RE D
But a week later, 1,000 Quebecois student s
travelled to Quebec city to demonstrate outsid e
the legislature . Grievance? Government channels had held 33,000 of 68,000 student loan applications in red tape masses, causing starvation
on the campuses . The minister promised to spee d
it up, but UGEQ leaders called it stalemate .
The biggest fight of all is shaping in Saskatchewan, where premier Ross Thatcher has raised
tuition fees, removed high school teacher's salar y
bargaining rights and in preparing to assume
direct financial control of the university . Students, teachers, professors and staff are mad a s
hell . It will remain just a battle of words unti l
later this month when the legislature reconvene s
to enact Thatcher's threats. Student organizers
are waiting, and organizing .
The other visible eruptions were relatively
minor : engineers at the University of Toront o
snowballed anti-Dow protestors, and Universit y
of Windsor students rallied for a free student
press .
ADMINISTRATION FORCES RESIGNATIO N
There, the 100 who marched through th e
snow protested the administration-forced resig -
Arts grad meetin g
attracts only on e
Just one student turned up for the art s
graduating class meeting Monday noon .
"It's a pity that with so many arts grads
so few should show interest," said class representative Susan Moir .
There are 973 students in fourth year arts .
On the agenda for the meeting were expenditures, honorary positions, and grad functions .
Of special interest was the choosing of a
class gift to undergraduates .
"I'd suggest something for SUB, an ambulance, or additions to study facilities in th e
library," Miss Moir said .
She would welcome suggestions for a gift ,
she said .
Another meeting is scheduled for Thursday
noon in Bu . 104 .
Those graduating students who cannot atten d
the meeting but who have suggestions should
phone her at 263-6878, or arts grad class representative Linda Kerr, at 266-5857 .
nation of Lance co-editors John Lalor and Marian
Johnstone . It took more rallies, a strong student
council statement of support and a Canadia n
University Press investigation, but editor Johnstone was re-instated and the paper's autonom y
guaranteed . Lalor is still out . What stated it all ?
A few shifts, and Jerry Farber's the Student a s
Nigger article .
Lalor's not the only editor out for obscenity
—Argosy Weekly editor Allan Rimoin was fire d
by the university president Jan . 31 after a hassl e
caused indirectly by the same article . His publications advisory board is against him, and the
whole mess in Sackville is obfuscated by a hay wire newspaper constitution .
"They all agree the constitution should b e
re-written, but they think it's expedient to fir e
me first," Rimoin said .
'Meanwhile, 24 college papers in Canada hav e
printed the Student as Nigger piece, partly a s
a solidarity gesture with Rimoin, Lalor an d
Mount Royal Reflector editor Allan Wilson .
Wilson was also threatened with expulsion
by the board of trustees, which later relente d
under student pressure .
The tempests grow deeper when you rea d
the article itself — each flurry reinforces it s
message . The people in universities — students
and teachers — don't control universities . Negroes in America are second-class citizens, an d
so are students in universities .
SENATORS—REAL OR SHOW ?
Academocratically, five campuses got a tota l
of 17 senators . Seven are at the University of
Manitoba, the largest catch to date . Dalhousi e
and the University of Victoria got three each ,
Brock got two, and St . Francis Xavier got two .
But St . F . X's aren't real — they don't vote .
One of them, council president John Gorman ,
profusely praised the university's liberal administration anyway .
Students also advanced on the senate committee front . Dalhousie, Memorial of Newfound land and Waterloo all got students onto ke y
planning committees . The total so far is 15 universities with senators, and negotiations are no w
on at the University of Toronto and McGill i n
Montreal .
The University of B .C. got its four senators
last spring . They've been there long enough t o
conclude the senate will never open its secre t
chamber, so three went to a student meetin g
and asked their constituents for permission t o
quit .
Students said no, planned a mass sit-in a t
the next senate meeting, and negotiations with
the senate for openness opened again . The explosion was slated for St . Valentine's Day, bu t
the threat has both sides talking again and it' s
been cancelled . The students so far remained
senators .
Last year's major battleground, the country wide CUS front, enjoyed relative peace — one i n
(Prince of 'Wales College) and none out . A ne w
drop-out front may be opening in the Canadia n
University Press, with one (Carleton University )
out and two in.
Simon Fraser students overwhelmingly vote d
solidarity with the National Liberation Front ;
which, in turn, is currently on the offensive i n
Vietnam . A reversal at Montreal's Sir 'Georg e
Williams, where council president Jeff Chipma n
resigned over war recruiting—he's for it, counci l
isn't — and was re-instated by a student genera l
meeting .
And everywhere the pall of pot smoke . The
university of Manitoba discovered some prof s
smoke it . Winnipeg good burghers blew thei r
collective cool . Catholic Loyola of Montreal
outlawed drugs of ,all kinds, shortly after polic e
found 100 hippies stoned in a Montreal church .
Finally, January boded ill for the early blooming student activists in Ontario . A committee o f
university presidents meeting at Waterloo Jan .
20 declared, "There is no such thing as a studen t
right to representation in the university government ." Academocracy leads to sham democracy ,
they said .
The're not the only ones catching on. Toronto Star business columnist Jack MacArthur ,
who talks directly to those who own Canada ,
Jan . 30 warned that if student power ever get s
out of control and takes over the university ,
students might use it for their own ends and no t
the country's ends . IStatp power moves in, crushingly, he said . Believe it .

What makes a musical ?
More than 100 UBC students have been busy sinc e
before Christmas finding out .
The Musical Society's cast and production crew ar e
seeing the results of their efforts as the musical comedy
Half a Sixpence, which runs to Thursday in the auditorium .
Ask them what makes a musical .
They'll tell you time : time to learn lines and song s
and dances, and time to rehearse and re-rehearse unti l
all three are perfectly harmonized .
Time to design and build sets, plan the program ,
publicize, and sell tickets .
Hours to paint sets and synchronize lighting, collec t
props and select costumes .
They'll tell you enthusiasm : it's 11 p .m . and you're
tired because it's the fifth night in a row that you've
been at rehearsal .
And the director calls for your number to be done
one more time, and this time act less constipated, so you
smile and take your place on stage .
Well after midnight, you arrive home to get a fe w
hours sleep before attending classes and yet another rehearsal the next day .
The obvious question is, is it worth it ?
Yes, according to Ken Irwin, who plays the lead rol e
in Half a Sixpence .
Why ?
"Because of the experience, the enjoyment, and th e
friends you make while being involved in this kind o f
production . I think a musical is simply more fun than othe r
theatricals for both cast and audience," Irwin said .

Court proceedings packe d
UBC student court declared Stan Persky in eligible as a candidate for Alma Mater Societ y
president after deliberating for four hours Monday.
The decision came at 7 p .m . Earlier a storm y
three hour session of the court at noon saw mor e
than 200 students attempt to gain entry to th e
chambers by various means .
Students argued with the sergeant-at-arms ,
who admitted only 75 students to the publi c
gallery. Some came down over the roof, i n
through the windows, and beat on the doors, bu t
were unsuccessful in their efforts .
The five justices, Allan Stewart, Gary Mc Shane, Al Donaldson, Peter Gerger, all law 3 ,
and Carol Powlett, law 2, maintained the cour t
had a right to apply their interpretation of sections of the constitution to particular instances .
This was objected to at the beginning o f
procedures by defense lawyer Steve Gill.
The justices said in a unanimous decisio n
that Persky will not have attended two academi c
years by March, the time the constitution stipulates he must take office .
The justices accepted a definition of "year "
from September to May .
They also recommended that the election be
declared null and void and the ballots be destroyed.
UBC director of information Arnie Myers
and public relations officer Jim Banham trie d
to get into the chambers but both found the stairs
leading up to the second floor of Brock clogge d
with students .
Looking at the students crowded outside th e
chambers, ADES treasurer Dave Hoye said student
court isn't a circus.
"Do you think they let everyone in down town when there's a rape on?", he asked .
Preliminary objections to the absence of tw o
of the usual seven justices were made by Gill .
Chief justice Stewart said one justice had a
conflict of interests and decided not to sit ; another became seriously ill Monday morning .
All this time Vancouver's Town Fool Joachi m
Foikis attempted to enter but was kept out b y
the sergeant-at-arms.
Both Gill and prosecutor Bob Johnston objected to the lack of delimitation of studen t
court's jurisdiction . Gill moved for adjournment
to B .C . Supreme court for a writ of prohibitio n
but was overruled by Stewart.
Persky's case was argued by law student s
Gill and Mike Harcourt, law 3 .
The AMS, who originally asked student cour t
to interpret the section of the constitution o n
eligibility, was represented by Bob Johnston ,
law 3, and Dave Gibbons, law 2 .
The section of the AMS constitution that
was referred to student court for interpretatio n
is By-law 4 (3) a .
It reads :
"The president . . . shall have successfully
completed his second year or its equivalent ,
and . . . has attended the University of British Columbia for at least two years and . . .
has not previously 'held the position of president of the society . "
Gill argued that this section was so ambiguous it allowed so many different interpretations that student court could not decide arbitrarily on one interpretation .
He questioned the meaning of the word s
"year" and "attended" . He said "year" coul d
be a calendar year from January 1 to Dee . 3 1
or an academic year from Sept . 1 to Aug . 31 or
it could mean two full winter sessions.
Thus student court is forced to take a n
interpretation of the arbitrary meaning of th e
word "year", Gill said .
Persky has been at UBC since the fall o f
1966 but has only '27 units . He is listed in the
registrar's office in third year honors anthropology, conditional .
Persky, testfying as a defense witness, sai d
he was asked by his teacher to join the honors
program and later met with honors adviser s
and was admitted to the program .
Johnston called UBC Registrar Jack Parnall
as an expert witness on Persky's academi c
standing .
Parnall testified that Persky had conditiona l
standing before being admitted to third year .
He said Persky had only 27 units last year .
Just then a Varsity Outdoors Club membe r
swung down from the roof on a rope, took pictures for The Ubyssey, and was hauled up again .
The audience applauded .
Johnston presented as evidence a statemen t
signed by Parnall of Persky's academic record .
In cross-examination Gill asked Parnall i f
Persky was an active member of the AMPS . "As
far as I know," Parnall replied .
Gill also asked if Parnall had been consulted
when the pertinent sections of the constitutio n
on eligibility were drafted .
Parnall said no .
Then a crowd of students beat on the door s
for a minute, stopping the court proceedings .
Two more mountaineers landed on the ledg e
and one made it. inside.
Johnston submitted that the two year requirement must be fulfilled by the time o f
nomination or election, not including a summe r
session .
He said in his argument that the motion o f
the AMS was irrelevant, that student cour t
could not decide on a particular candidate's
eligibility but only interpret the AMS code an d
constitution .
Democracy favore d
TORONTO (CUP) — Students and profs voted 27-22 Feb . 6
in favor of full democracy in University of Toronto government .
But not before the principal of Innis College (U of T) predicted chaos if this happened .
Speaking in a debate on student power, Dr . Robin Harri s
said university education would be ruined if students and prof s
had a full say in running the institution .
He said while the university is now a political situation ,
full democracy would limit individual freedom for profs an d
students because they would have no time to learn and think .
The university is not a legislature, he said . "The party
system, where people constantly attack each other, is not appropriate to the fulfillment of the aims of the university . "
Student council president Tom Faulkner, also in the debate ,
said students have no say in determining the values of the university . "The only way a university can have standard value s
of excellence is if it's run in a democratic way . "
A third speaker in the student power debate said the university is essentially a reflection of society . Student power i s
thus an issue with society rather than the university, she said .

UBC is number two but it doesn't try harder . Saturday
night, to the cries of "SFU is number one" and "UBC is numbe r
two", the UBC Thunderbirds went down to their most humiliating basketball defeat in years to the Simon Fraser Clansmen.
The 64-39 score indicates exactly how the play in the gam e
went . The Birds were outplayed in every department . They
couldn't shoot and they couldn't rebound and if you can't do
these two 'things, you don't have a hope of winning .
But more important than shooting and rebounding, the Bird s
were psyched-out . Both teams were extremely nervous at th e
game's start but the Birds were nervous throughout the game .
The two teams were atrocious at the beginning of the con test, but when Brian MacKenzie sank a foul shot with tw o
minutes gone in the game, SFU settled down.
It took the Birds nearly seven minutes to score their firs t
point, a free throw by Dave Rice, but by that time they were
down nine points . The closest UBC got was near the end of th e
first quarter when they narrowed SFU's lead to five points .
"I've never seen them play so lousy," said coach Peter Mullins after the game . "They didn't do anything well . "
When informed that the Birds had shot 22 .9 per cent, Mullins said he was surprised the average was that high .
"We just played one of those bad games that come along, "
added Mullins . "Simon Fraser played a damn good game . "
When one of the Birds was asked if he was nervous durin g
the game he replied, "No, but I don't know what the brow n
stuff in my pants was . "
SFU's athletic director Lorne Davies said he thought th e
theft of his team's uniforms prior to the game had an effect o n
the outcome .
"The boys were thinking more about their uniforms tha n
the game and so there was less pressure on them," said Davies .
GYMNASTS COME TO UB C
The finest gymnasts in the western hemisphere will gathe r
in Vancouver Feb . 29-March 2 for the four nation North American gymnastic championships .
Canada, Cuba, Mexico and the United States will participat e
in the meet td be held in the Pacific Coliseum and UBC's Wa r
Memorial Gym .
Full teams of twelve gymnasts (six men and six women )
will compete in the optionals at UBC on the second day of th e
tournament, March 1 .
Tickets for this international tournament can be obtaine d
at the Vancouver Ticket Center, Eaton's stores .
'Special student tickets costing $1 can be obtained fro m
the Memorial Gym office for the afternoon performance at th e
UBC gym . There are 3,000 seats reserved for students for that
performance . Students can also buy tickets to the March 1 night
events at the gym office .
CUBA'S ENTRY MAKES HISTOR Y
Cuba is being represented for the first time in the champion ships . They have refused to attend previous tournaments be cause they were held in the U .S .
Cuba surprised the crowds at the 1967 Pan American Game s
in Winnipeg by winning three gold medals .
The top Cuban duo of Hector Ramierz and Jorge Rodriguez ,
gold medal winners in floor exercises and vaulting respectively,
are favored to repeat in Vancouver .
A strong Mexican team is also training specifically for th e
Vancouver challenge, headed by their spectacular Pan Am ring s
champion, Armando Valles .
The top star of the strongest U .S . gymnastic team in history
is beautiful Linda Jo Metheny of the University of Illinois .
Miss Metheny won three individual gold medals and shared two
others at Winnipeg.
UBC'S BILL MACKIE TO COMPET E

Banno's Birds-eye view
By BOB BANN O
Few people realized UBC's bush off-cour t
performances prior to Saturday's SFU-UB C
basketball game could be matched by Pete r
Mullins' Birds on-court .
But it happened .
No doubt echoes about being tight, nervou s
and ill will reverberate down UBC corridor s
for weeks .
These factors undoubtedly did play a rol e
in the destruction of the Birds on Saturday .
But also, no doubt, SFU had the better team .
This statement may reverberate down UB C
corridors for years.
They have superior material, not only a t
guard — everybody knows this — but also a t
forward .
They have superior depth .
They have more inspirational coaching .
And, most important, they have a mor e
realistic athletic scholarship and recruitin g
policy .
Many observers thought the Clansmen would
take the Birds . But most of them also though t
that fine outside shooting by Ian Dixon and
Neil Murray and the strong inside play of SF U
refugee Frank Rotering would keep things close .
In retrospect, we can see how faulty thi s
analysis was .
For unless a player can drive around hi s
defender, he should never get the chance to cast
off long, pretty-looking jump-shots .
And none of the Birds are known for thei r
driving .
Rotering, improved as he is, is still no matc h
for the Clan's big man, Dave Murphy .
* *
*
The blame for the UBC's inferior materia l
lies not on the broad shoulders of the haples s
Mullins, but squarely with the athletic bigwigs
and the administration .
Until UBC's senate and board of governor s
allow our coaches to recruit with scholarship s
and bursaries, we will remain bush league .
And this won't happen until the UBC studen t
body elects senators concerned with all aspects
of change in the university, including athletics .
Significantly, our student senators turned a
haughty thumbs down when offered a post o n
the athletic committee .

One message rang loud and clear at Wa r
Memorial Gym Saturday ; if you want to se e
the best college basketball in B .C ., don't go t o
the UBC gym, go to Burnaby Mountain .
Thorsen and JV's smash SF U
By JOHN TWIG G
While the Birds blundered ,
the UBC Junior Varsity basket ball team throttled the Simon
Fraser JV's 82-44, at least retaining some semblance of respectability for UBC in Saturday night's basketball action .
The first half of the gam e
was very dull, as both team s
played ball control . SFU se t
up in a zone defence whil e
UBC was content to pas s
around the zone until a good
shot was available .
The UBC tactics worked be cause the slow play along wit h
the usually effective press produced a strong 31-16 lead a t
half-time .
The second half was a n
abrupt change of style for UB C
as the team came out running.
Thunderbird swimmers
drowned by opposision
Former SFU guard Ken Hous e
appeared to spark the team a s
he came off the bench and
made several key passes .
The JV's put on tremendou s
pressure and completely stymied SFU . Ron Thorsen, who ha s
been having a little trouble i n
past games, put on an amazing
display of basketball in th e
second half scoring all of his
15 points as well as making
some brilliant passes .
He led the team in assists
with five while Gary Best wa s

mostly on opportunist shots i n
the first half.

their lead to 25 points, coac h

It was a rather one-sided 10-0 victory, but the Bisons ha d
a reasonable excuse in that they had not played since Novembe r
and were a little out of shape, despite indoor practices .
Still, the lack of conditioning was only good for about fiv e
UBC goals and UBC would have won under any conditions .
UBC is undoubtly the best in the west and their victor y
over the Bisons establishes their Canadian supremacy .
Outstanding for Manitoba was their goalie, O . Bailey, wh o
held UBC to three goals in the first half before he was move d
out of the net in the second half, presumably to add scorin g
punch to the offense.
