Charges that the CCF is losing support of workers an d
farmers, becoming undemocratic, and that democratic socialis m
is a "lot of bunk" were leveled by Don Lanskai l at Parliamentary Forum meeting yesterday .

Speaking in support of the motion ,
"Resolved that there is no place i n

Most important change in the preliminary studys will be the additio n

of taking the course in first yea r

These changes were announce d
Tuesday night by Dr. Myron Weaver ,
Dean of UBC's new faculty of medicine . He was speaking to a specia l

Medical School year will be 3 2
weeks long—starting in first week i n
September and going through to May .
"Students who hope to be admitte d
to the first year of the faculty mus t
apply before January and must tak e
the medical school admission tests, "
said .Dr . Weaver .
Information about the medical test s
must be obtained from Dr . Black i n
the counselling bureau today .
Dr . Weaver also told the student s
that there would be no quota for students from out of the province . The y
will be admitted on the same scale a s
local students . "Local students wil l
still be given preference," he said
.
First class in the school will b e
coniposed of sixty students . No student with lower than a high secon d
class will be admitted .

Calendar Change s
Engineer's Banquet, formerly scheduled for Thursday, October 13, wil l
be held at the Commodore on Wednesday, October 12.
Date of Phrateres Formal has als o
been changed . Latter will take plac e
at Brock Hall on Tuesday, Novembe r

The day following distribution of card s

_deem
Men's Club Room . This, he points out,
is quite definitely against AMS rules ,
By "lunches" he means such thing s
as Cokes, ice cream cones and chocolate bars as well .
Reason for the rule is that students
have a habit of dropping the food on
the upholstery and the floor .
MICE AND RATS
Food also attracts mice and rats.
Many mice nests have been found i n
th , cheetei'fields , ef,the b4iidred .Brgck,
Room . Evidences of their presence
can be seen in the tooth marks o n
some of the table and chesterfiel d
legs .
Two other complaints high on Bill' s
list are the habits of bringing we t
top-coats into the lounges and the
practice of shaking faulty fountai n
pens, spraying ink in the floor an d
sofas ,
FILTH Y
He points out that one set of chesterfields that had been recovere d
during the summer is already filthy .
This he attributes to wet coats, in k
spots and food spots .
Bill is a short, friendly fellow wh o
doesn't look like he could get reall y
mad at anybody . And he says h e
doesn't intend to .
"I am willing to help students wit h
any problems that I can . I intend to b e
nice about enforcing rules . I will onl y
use extreme measures in extrem e
cases, "
"I have been made responsible fo r
the condition of the Brock, and I hav e
to keep my job ."
TAKE MEASURE S
He says that disciplin e committee
will have to take measures with any one that he turns in for disobeyin g
rules, under orders from the administration .
President of Undergraduate Societie s
Committee, Bill Haggart, said Thursday that Discipline Committee doe s
not intend to get officious about Broc k
rules .
WRONG IMPRESSIO N
"There is a feeling around that th e
committee consists of a bunch of boy s
in grey shirts and arm bands wh o
run around tapping people on th e
shoulder, saving naughty-naughty . "
"We don't intend to be dramati c
about this thing ."

We Are A on-Entity
The familiar cartoon picture of Canad a
as an overgrown and ungainly boy scout i n
s1oi't pants apparently stuns up outsid e
'
world s opinion of us .
John Fisher, the CBC's roving reporter ,
told W'aTuesday that we ought to take som e
steps to change this picture .
Unfortunately, Mr . Fisher had no suggestions as to the means at our disposal o r
the course of action necessary to mak e
Canada look grown up .
Of course there is some question as t o
whether or not Canada really is grown up .
Presumably Mr . Fisher used culture i n
the lay sense and not in the sense meant b y
Sociologists and Anthropologists . If so, w e
may assume that we are to be fudged b y
our contribution to the arts and sciences .
r contribution to the physical science s
had en in many ways spectacular and w e
hav received international recognition fo r
our contributions to fields as diverse a s
gig
nuclear physics and medicine . But our contribution to the arts has been, to say th e
least, obscure and our contribution to th e
social sciences and philosophy has been negligible . It may be assumed, therefore, tha t
the outside world has some justification fo r
regarding us as a non-entity .'
No amount of the "horn-blowing " suggested by Mr . Fisher will remedy the situation, The roots of the problem are muc h
more obscure .
Probably the truth of the matter lie s
in the second rate job our universities ar e
doing . We are a young country and, perhap s
naturally, we tend to concentrate our educational facilities on those fields which appea r
likely to yield immediate and concrete re suits . The physical sciences and engineerin g
thus form the hulk of our educational institutions .
But the physical sciences can provid e
only means to an end, and very limite d
means at that . Without the social science s
to supplement them, the physical science s
cannot even provide adequate means to ou r
ends, The ends themselves must be provide d
by our literature and our philosophy .
If, then, we want to become mature we
had better reform our universities ,

'The Responsible Press '
Vancouver's downtown morning news paper, The News-Herald, yesterday carried ,
in headlines, the fact that Student Counci l
had "slapped a ban" on the speech of Dr .
James Endicott.
Nothing could be farther from the truth ,
Dr . Endicott was refused permission t o
speak because he was sponsored by a n
organization which did not come under th e
Literary and Scientific Executive of UBC ,
According to the AMS constitution, all cam pus speakers must be sponsored by a campu s
club .
$ut the so-called "responsible press, "
eager for headlines took the opportunity t o
make a mountain out of a molehill ,
All that was necessary for Dr . Endicot t
Gobbledeygoa k
to obtain permission to speak was to hav e
his talk sponsored by a campus club .
Such a sponsorship was arranged les s
than 24 hours later by AMS President Jim
Sutherland . The International Students Clu b
will sponsor Dr . Endicott.
Persons and organizations eager to pounc e
op political discrimination have naturally pu t
the university in their bad books becaus e
such a story was published .
It is items such as these that give th e
liberal name of UBC a bad name acros s
Canada .

story and got It straight . The correct fact s

Frosh Team to Play Inter A
Complete change-over will be made in the Basketbal l
set-up on the campus this year with only one university entr y
in the Senior A Men 's League but with a new addition in th e
Inter A calibre .
Thunderbirds remain the same however, still participating in the Ever
.
-grenCofcplay
New squad to form this seaso n
will be a Frosh club of official Inte r
A standing but with the local loo p
almost on the verge of breaking up .
Fresh will probably play only agains t
comparable clubs on the mainland .
DOMINION FINALS MAYB E
Concession has been gained to hav e
the Frosh club play in the Dominio n
Inter A finals if it is possible to ente r
a team from the university .
Braves are to be dropped from th e
local V and D Senior A loop, leavin g
UBC Chiefs to carry the burden fo r
the campus .
GAIN EXPERIENC E
Move is designed to allow talente d
frosh to gain valuable experienc e
against high class competition fro m
other cities .
Possible games for Frosh wilt be
arranged with Junior Varsity club s
from member schools in the Ever green Conference as well as team s
from some United States Junior Colleges.
Powell River will be a logical
contestant for the first year squad ,
after the good will that was sprea d
last year when UBC Braves travelle d
there for an exhibition series .
STRICTLY FRESHME N
Frosh team will follow Inter A
regulations, which means that nmern
bets must be under 20 years of ag e .
Possibly some members of the clu b
might not be first year men but hcas l
basketball coach Jack Pomfret plan s
to keep membership down strictly t o
