Bowman Fired At the emergency Studer,ts Legislative Council
Meeting of Friday February 14th, Dave Bowman was dismissed as Editor in Chief of the Georgian. The main grounds for the action of dismissal were the fina ncial incompetence of the editor, arising out of his a lleged journalistic incompetence. The text of the resolution passed by the council is as follows:
Whereas. solicited ad-vertising did, during the week of February 3rd to 12th yie ld revenues sufficient to pub lish 2 eight page issues of the georg ian; And whereas David Bowman, Edi tor-inChief of the georgian did pub lish during that week 4 issues at an additional cost of $663.00;
And whereas $35.00 for the retouching of negatives and preparation of plates and $20.00 for belated legal as-
a stance was necessary as a • su it of journalistic in
compete nce; And whereas on several
occasions, advertiseme nts appeared late, as a result of journa listic incompetence and wi ll not be paid for;
And whereas on two occasions waiti ng ti me, as a result of journa listic incompetence resu lted in additiona l costs of $245.00;
And whereas on one specific occasion there was an additiona l cost of $80.00 to pub lish an unscheduled and unauthorized issue;
A And whereas on one said W casion, as a result of
journalistic incompetence , an issue appeared three days late in order that three pages be redone at an additiona l costof$45.00;
And whereas the Constitution of the Students' Association of Sir George Williams
nive rsity does provide that the Editor-in-Chief of the georgian may oe removed · by the Students' Legislative Cou ncil from whom he de rives hi s authority, on the basis of fi na ncia l and/or journa listic incompetence; Be it resolved that t he position of Editor-in-Chief of the ge org ian be declared vacant."
Prior to the dismissal of the editor the publication of the georg ian had been suspended for the week of February 11th - 18th by the head of the Communications Board (This is an action he is constitutiona lly · empowered to take). The next issue of the georgian will appear (possibly) on Tuesday under the editorship of orman Lazare, who the LC no-minated to replace David Bowman. Lazare was pre-
viously an a sistant to SLC president, Manny Kalles.
At the same meeting, the S.L.C. decided, because both the nominees for the editorship of the georg ian next year were incapacitated, that nominations will be re-opened .
Anderson Reinstated, Holds Press Conference
Andy King
On Wed nesday, February 12, Assistant Professor Perry Anderson was reinstated by VicePrincipal O'Brien. He wi ll resume lecturing when the Hall bui lding reope ns for classes. The re instatement has come before the hearing committee, estab li shed to look in to the charges of racism leve led against him by five Black students, had made pub lic its findings from the hearings it has held.
According to t he University Ander on was suspended to facilitate negotiations with the -students occupying the centers on the seventh and ninth floors; a nd therefore, in view of the subsequent deve lopments, there was no point in continui ng the suspe nsion.
At bis press confere nce on Friday, Anderson said that the suspension was " ... written on his record" and that there was a " ... campaign of propaganda .. . " against him.
He tated that his reputation has been damaged by the accusation of racism. Professor Ander on sees the possibility of bringing libel charges a~ainst "those who have damaged my reputation and who over severa l months, have co'nducted a campaign of propaganda accusing me of racism". He referred to "The Georgian" in particular.
GARNET KEY AIDS STUDENTS
Andy King Crises often bring out the
worst in people , and the best in people. One of the groups of people whose best was brought out by the crises at Sir George was the Garnet Key. Jalell Hasan of the Garnet Key, the Sir George Williams Honour ociety, approached Lt. Be llazzi , Chief security officer of Sir George Wi lliams University, and received permission for members of the Garnet Key to get books for students from thei r lockers. About a doze n Garnet Key members volu nteered for the "Blister Brigade", and spent all day Wed nesday retrieving 6ooks, lab coats, shoes, ties, etc. for the students of
ir George from their lockers. The next day, Thursday, the system was changed so t hat the Garnet Key members spent the day escorting Georgians to their lockers, and safe ly back out again. Some of the Alum ni of the Garnet Key a lso came in to render their services, and t heir feet. Tha nks to the (almost) untiri ng efforts· of these people who spent a lmost a week of trooping up and down the twelve flights of stairs of the Ha ll Bui lding, many students who wou ld otherwise be left without a book are ab le -to study during the unexpected holiday.

4 THE PAPER February 17th, 1969
A DANGER SIGN
There is a good chance that North America society is reaching a danger point in its development . More and more, militant factions, using the freedoms and rights that our democratic sys ,em has provided them, are placing their fractional demands at the doorsteps of society. Not content to make use of the non-violent and painless ( for both sides) avenues of approach they instead seek confrontation, street battle with dispirited and disorganized police and in doing so they reject the rights of those who want change but will not be subjected to the control of the revolution leaders.
Physical and mental oppression and harassement of individuals who inhabit their environment but who do not agree is increasing every day. Occupation and sit-in have replaced above table bargaining. Generalization and broad sweeping demand ( note ·demand) replace specific and documented requests. The leaders of the attacked "enemy" react by solidifying the positions and taking a necessary hard line to protect the interests of the majority.
Back' in the 1930's part of the world saw something similar. Hitler and his handpicked men catered to the nee ds of the demoralized post war Germans. The disease, founded on legitimate complaint became a massive evergrowing conglomerate of mass demand, broadbased threats and penalty for those who did not fall in line . His intellectual support came from the Universities with their students and so-called enlightened faculty who were already looking for change.
Today the names have been changed but the trends ~re making themselves evident -the hitler tactics are here in the uni~ersity environment . Threats and harassement are with us. The extremists are establishing the guidelines and reference points with which they demand administration faculty and non-aligned students must take action much the same way the fascists of another era changed their society.
Racism and equality were issues then . So was the self-determination of a people a major issue ( in this case Germans denuded of pride by the W.W. I victors). The results of the development were disastrous - 30 million died in an atrocious war that makes the current affair in Vietnam a dismal war game by comparison.
to the editor WHO'S TO BLAME?
Dear Sirs : The name of Sir George Wil
liams University a s " the most liberal university in Canada" has been burned by about 97 persons or rather barbarians. Who is to blame for th is unreasonable vandalism and wreckage of valuable and unrepayable damage? The university community is to blame. If the Students' Association with all the students had taken a firm stand like the Commerce Students' Association this would not have happened. Also if the administration had not been so liberal then it would have called in the police before they (the di ssenters) could have done the damage. The administration waited too long for doing something.
The highest blame rests on the Georg ian and on Mork Medicoff for g iving assistance to the trou· blemokers. Mork Medicoff, • President of the Arts Faculty Asso· c,ot,on , gave the d issenters our money and the Georg ian offe red moral support .
These people along with the militants should get the maximum penalties the low allows. I agree with what Deon Flynn and Professor G . A. 8. Moore said and that is "everything the low books coll for" .
It will toke on inestimable o· mount of time before Si r George rega ins its good name in society and before all bona fide students ore accepted in our society. Therefore let there be no mercy for the idiots who ruined our good name. Let them suffer for what they did so that thi s may never happen again .

ABOLISH DAY DIVIS ION Dear Sirs:
I stood today at Moisonneuve and Mackay and watched the sod spectacle of o university I loved being destroyed by vandalism at the hands of o group of students who , during the events of the post fe w weeks, were fo rever mouthing the words " libe rty" and "j ust ice" My heart goes out to Sir George, and the damage done to its pro· perty and name g ri eves me very much .
However, th is is not primarily o letter of comm iserat ion and sympathy . As o g raduate of the un iversity and po rt-t ime ecturer there since 1963, I hove been fol lowing the events of this affair as best I could , though it has not been easy to separate facts from opinions, a pastime left nowadays almost · enti rely to semant icists . Anyone who has haunted the corridors of Sir George for any length
·of time knows the absurd ity of the charges of raci sm: o more liberal universi ty on th is cont ine nt would be pretty hard to find .
One fact - does emerge clearly from today's events: o mino rity , effectively organ ized and/ or controlled , con overthrow o pass ive majo ri ty . I guess we always knew it , but now we really know it . I will not dwell he re on the small percentage of students (of what? one wonders! ) involved in the destruction , no r on the indifference o r ve rbal host ility of the ma jo ri ty of the day students, but I would like to b ring up a foci that hos been sin g ularly ove rlooked in all th is, na mely , the evening student body . As on undergradua te , a nd late r a s on instructo r, my a ssociation with Sir Geo rge begins at 6 :00 p .m. That is when most of the SGWU stud en t body a rrives on ca mpus . Now, in my experience, these o re strange peo ple, wi th terri bly ol d -fa shio ned idea s. They believe, fo r example, thot the ma in rea so n they ore there is to lea rn something (a s oppose d to "seeking the t ruth" a s they coll it in t he
day division ). Moreover, they think they will hove to make o personal effort to acquire thi s knowledge. Just think of that! Study ond work! Now the day student hos one big odvontoge ove r the even ing stu dent : spare t ime. Not fo r him the idea of wo rk . Life' s too good, besides the old man is paying . Yet these are the people o rgoni· sin g (? ) comm ittees and meet ings such a s the one I witnessed on January 31 st, at l :00 p.m . in H-110 and which resembled more o hippy parade on the Ed Sullivan Show than o gathering of students interested in solving o serio us c risis .
The evening stude nts re present the port of the ice berg under water, but where wa s the ir voice du ri ng the crisis? Yet Sir George owes its very existence to the evening student, he is its raison d'etre . And you, a s evening ' stu dents hove o responsibility to the University. Many ore g rateful to Sir George for allowing the opportunity to further their education, get o degree or o better job while holding down O day job, because fam ily responsib ilit ies or

financial difficulties or both mo it imposs ible to attend during the day . How many other un iversit ies ac ross the land con boast a s proud o reco rd a s this one in th is re spect? But how much longer will the evening students leave th e dec ision-ma king to o handful of day student act ivists?
I would like to close with a serious suggestion . The commun i· cat ions media have estimated the damage done to the Holl Building at several mill ion s of dollar s. Whatever the cost , if Si r George finds itself in financial d ifficult ies and has to cut bock , I would sug· gest that it temporarily abol ish the day d ivision ent irely. This would put an end to the day stu· dent' s d iscontent, and g ive a more t ime to th ink what on edUW, lion is all about, and whether he ,s capable of a ssum ing the respon sibilities it involves. Keep Sir George for the even ing students only, in the spirit of it s founder . They are the people, I would suggest , who apprec iate its true value.

Instructional Media Equipment lost
The Instructional Media Offi ce, located on the ninth floor of the Hall Building ·has lost equipment, and has had much other equipment suffer fire , water, and smoke damage.
When members of the staff were able to reach the offices and storerooms of the Instructional Media Offi ce they found that there had been serious effects of the occupa tion on the equipment and facilities they were responsible for. There was one te levi.sion set destroyed , and another was missing. A Siemens 16mm movie projector located in room 920, and having a value of about $1 ,200 was destroyed , and two Carrosel projectors in 937-1 were damaged by fire . The instructional Media Office used room 937-1 as storage space for equipment when it was not in use, and in that room, 28 other items were damaged , and will have to be repaired.
A In addition to the costs of W repairs and replacements,
service to the university by
the Instructional Media Office will be on a reduced basis until the equipment is repaired or replaced.
(In the months leading up to the events of last Tuesday, about $3,000 worth of equipment has been lost from classrooms through theft. This includes record players, tape recorders, overhead projection equipment, microphones, etc.)
While they are on the ninth floor , the offices of Instructional Media did not suffer any serious damage , other than a minor flooding on the floor. This was taken care of by mopping it up with about 2,000 copies of (by some almost poetic from of justice) the special riot issue, February 11 - 12 of The P aper.

- Macleod resigns
On February 13th Dr. C. F. Macleod resigned as chairman of the Biology Department.
He stated: " I fe lt strongly that I cou ld not agree with the reasons given for the suspension of Professor Anderson ... The type of publicity the uni versity was giving for Mr. e Anderson was not the best ... Mr. Anderson was quite satisfied with the present committee and with the right of either side to appeal to a tribuna l. "
Mr. Anderson, he claimed, has been branded as a man who hasn't been co-operative. Yet at the hearing committee's session he had to "ac-

cuse hi mself and prove himself innocent".
This was a reference to the fact the black students refused to appear before the committee. Mr. Anderson's legal counsel, Noel Lyon, exp lained that the onus was on the students to the attention of t he public through the press, Mr. Anderson wished to refute them and clear his name.
"It seems highly suspi-. cious to me that the students did not come forward when they said they had documented evidence to back their charges" Dr. Macleod said ... Last May when charges of racism and incompetency were brought against Professor Anderson he reported, "the black students stopped ta lking about the racism charges at their own request.
"Everytime they brought them up, evidence was brought forward counteri ng the charges. They then concentrated on the incompetency charge' .
Dr. Macleod wondered why, in the light of a ll that has transpired, t he name given to the case by the press has been the Anderson affair and not the black affai r.
"The charge could have been levelled against any professor in any department. Why the biology department and Mr. Anderson were singled out, I don' t know", he said.
Clark Issues Statement The Acting Principa l, D.B. Clark, in the fo llowi ng state
ment has outlined events leadi ng up to Tuesday's violence as far as various members of t he administration inte rpreted them. The statement covers in depth the involvement of a ll parties considered part of the negotiati ng team.

At 2:00 a.m. on M onday, February 10th, Mr. Oliver handed Mr. David S chwartz, the Universi ty lawyer, a statement signed by his clients outlining the terms on which they would call off their occupation and "undertake that no violence will be directed towards Profe ·sor Anderson du ring the negotiation of the affair". It should be noted that talk of violence had already caused Mr. Flavell to wi thdraw his

The University saw this position as a reasonable basis for continuing negotiations, and Dr. O'Brien outlined these views to M r. Schwartz, who passed them to Mr. Oliver by telephone at 11 :45 p.m . Mr. Schwartz
· also to ld Mr. Oliver tha t the administra tion considered that negotiations could, and ought to, continue next day. Mr. Oliver later confirmed to Mr. S chwartz that he had telephoned his clients in the Computer Centre at about midnight to convey these views to them.

6 THE PAPER February 17th, 1969
BIG BROTHER MAO IS
WATCHING by Jamas Maclallan Associate editor
Perhaps one of the most alarming developments on this campus in recent years has bee,n the surfacing of a handful of dogmatic Mao-style Communists who seek to hide behind the name of the "Sir George Student Movement". THE PAPER has made an inquiry into the origin and activities of these individuals.
The Emergence of the Maoists
They were originally an offshoot of violent elements in the now defunct COMMFRU ("Committee For A Free University") who wanted to take to the barricades· last Spring rather than accept the overwhelming decision of the student body to allow job recruiting by all companies. Unable to have their militant stance accepted by "moderates" in COMMFRU they launched the abortive " Social Liberation Movement" with a grandiose call to arms in the final issue of last year's Georgian.
Over the Summer, their movement came to grief and fell under the influence of certain Maoist agents who called themselves "Internationalists" and followers of one rabble rouser from Ireland by the name of Hardial S. Bains. After . yet another name change they finally seized upon the imaginative title of the "Sir George Student Movement" to usher in the Fall term.
Activities of the Maoists
The Maoist "movement" consists of less than one dozen hardcore activists of whom several are unwitting Freshmen. They lack any minds of their own. They possess no originality or creativity. Their articles. harangues and "departmental proposals" are mirror reflections of the "McGill Student Movement" (which participated in the violence at Dorval airport recently against Murray Hill Limousine Company) and other parallel pro-Peking Communist cells in Toronto, British Columbia, the U.S.A., and several Western and nonWestern nations. They do not think for themselves, they are capable only of parroting the robot-like gospels of Red Guard hoodlums.
Another interesting factor about the Sir George Student Movement is their dependence on outside speakers and help-
ers (ranging in age from the cradle to the grave). The "Movement" is not a legally constituted organization nor is it recognized or responsible to any association of the university - as a repult they were in a position in a by-e lection to viciously slander two students as "fascists". They could not be checked because they were not responsible to any governing bod}' within the university.
One of their activities is termed a "mass democracy" in which only those who spout the Maoist line are considered democratic and are allowed to speak. Liberals, conservatives and moderates are lumped together in their analysis as "fascists" who are not "serving the people" and hence are not entitled to speak. Only the Maoist hierarchy are gifted with the divine insight to determine who should speak and who should not. Although the Maoists are an insignificant minority they recklessly assert that they represent the majority because those who disagree are called "antipeople" and hence they are sub-human and have no right to live, let alone speak!
An element of Maoist doctrine is that violence, murder and indiscriminate terrorism is justified to serve their warped goals. They are advocates of a revolution that will destroy the positive elements, ideals and structure that have enabled our civilization to develop.
Perhaps one of the most dangerous of the Maoist activities is their attempt to institute their definition of "democracy" in proposals for so-called "departmental restructuralization". This term actually contains the seeds of destruction of academic objectivity although they are cloaked behind a few legitimate recommendations. Their definition of change is to enable "progressive" students· (i .e. pro Red Chinese Communists) to have equal representation on all faculty committees in order to control course content, hiring, firing, promotions and salaries. These proposals are loosely disguised attempts to provide the instrumental machinery for the Maoists to gain decision-making power within this university. If their goal was academic objectivity then their aspirations could not be challenged, but their openly avowed purpose is ideological struggle and the triumph of their clique.
One vital Maoist tactic is threats against the free press which they brand as "fascist" (despite the fact that the press has given both sides of the story and has even printed free advertisements for them). Physical assaults and threats of such is another· tactic and a particular specialty of "Andre" Bursa who has gained notoriety for
his activism in service to the Party.
The Maoists usually rely upon deception in order to draw in new audiences. A recent strategy has been the establishment of front groups on campus such as "The Indian Progressive Study Group, ·"The Necessity For Change Institute Of ·Ideological Studies", and the "Academic Activities Club" . The latter group has tricked the Co-Curricular Committee (which uses E.S.A. and S.A. funds supplied by students) into giving them $200.00 for their questionable "academic" activities, the most recent one being the importation of a Red Guard.
Another interesting fact is that the Maoists are using the "Pre-University Affairs" office on the 3rd floor to hold meetings, stock propaganda and produce material. The students once again pick up the tab for this. One reason for the use of this office is the fact that Leo Barker, a party member, is one of the appointed officials in "PreUniversity Affairs" which publishes a Sir George paper for High School students entitled "Uncensored Version".
If the students in this university took the time to read "Uncensored Version" they would find that this publication (representing our University in the high schools) is a revolting and negative series of articles, attempting to utilize faults in the high school system to sell arguments of total revolution and the destruction of all healthy elements in our society. The SLC should take immediate action to investigate both the finances, personnel, purposes and flagrant abuse of the "Pre- University Affairs" department.
Who Are The Real Fascists?
What do these Maoist selfstyled pioneers of the proletarian cultural revolution really want: they want to destroy our values and our culture in order to establish a repressive dictatorship of an elite, and to effectively snuff out individual freedom (which they define as "fascism").
What shou ld be done:
the Maoists should be made responsible for their actions, they should have elected officers who will be held responsible for their illegal ·actions (i.e. libel, defamation of character, assault, threats etc ... ) - these people should be brought before the light of day and exposed for what they really are - the true anti-democratic fascists of this University.
The Freedom of Inaction
LAST OF A THREE PART SERIES
It's time for synthesis. Mc Luhan is not wrong when the says "total" man is involved in television. Let's look at it his way. There are sense-data occupying the man's nervous system. (There is a specific content which occupies his symbolic abilities. I include this in brackets to show what is missing, because McLuhan does not emphasize this. Partly because he does not see the intrinsic character of man. Symbolic man who discerns "content" is contrary to his thesis of the medium being the message.) And he is in physical presence , albeit, in a passive state of existence.
Now imagine the Skinner box, and a pigeon pecking at a target for food reception. Now imagine a person watching television. What we learn from television is that it is good to be alienated from the rest of humanity.
Perhaps the pigeon will be enslaved forever . However, humans, unfortunately for Mc Luhan, are known to create environments which suit their higher sen.9;e of esthetics. Should television and the new extensions of man fail in this regard, and this seems to be happening, it will be doomed to destruction.
We may distinguish television as something which is controlled by man (We get capitalist propaganda) , or something which is useful in spite of man. It has accelerated time, history. News reaches us in seconds, electrically. At the. cost of having the events of the existential situation transformed into a palatable commodity. Television itself, the box, is a commodity, a household pet, a friendly dog, hardly anything it says is bad , or wrong. Experience is transformed, because the experience of watching television is not the experience of the actual situation, but resembles it greatly.
The assumption McLuhan works with, and it is important to realize that he works with an assumption, a political one, is that our system of democracy is all set. We are
by Carl Nllflr
not supposed to attack what he says since he is only describing what is going on, the di vine nature of technological inevitability. The electric environment is upon us. Technology is upon us and we must participate (acquisce), become totally involved. Become cogs in the great machine. Because McLuhan omits power and politics from what he says, he can't pretend to be explaining the historical events of human action. For instance, he attempts to compare a Britisher's experience of radio as simple entertainment with the African's misunderstanding of radio as something which is very important. Fact is: to the apolitical bored British, old hands at colonialism , it might be added, nothing in life is really important, calling for outri'ght commitment. But to the oppressed there is something to fight -- colonialism, imperialism. McLuhan says the rage of the downtrodden is a simple mis-understanding of the extensions of man, the advance of technology. There are two definitions working here , A and McLuhan assumes his is• correct, but they will be resolved through power, man against m a n, state against state. The African viewpoint is historically irrelevant because it doesn't recognize that the medium is the message, we are slaves of our extensions, the media is the real oppressor.
If this is true, the predominance of subjective feeling and action over environmental pressures, anyone who glori-fies television the way McLu-han has, behind a mask of objectivity, he's made te levi- ,a· sion here a household pet, is • an apologist for the status quo, and must be recognized as one of the enemy. What is to be kept in mind is not solely whether the truth gets across its channels -- right-wing or left -- but whether the object in question allows man to be existential full. It' s one of the glories of democracy that "everything can be discussed in a free socie-ty" . The question is, can it be changed? Are we free to act?
On the Tuesday when the Faculty Club was invaded Rocky Jones, a hard-core black militant from Halifax talked on the Mezzanine prior to his involvement in the occupation. Near him can be seen Mark Medicoff and other un identified individuals (includ ing outsiders ), some of who are now before the courts for their role in the riot .

"WHAT IS FREE
ENTERPRISE"
BY J . W. MaclELLAN
Basically, the free enterprise system means freedom of the individual. Under the free enterprise system, the individ~ol is free to make something of himself if he has the enterprise to do it . Too many people put too much emphasis on " free" and too little emphasis on "enterprise."
The difference between o free nation and a slave nation con be very simply stated . In o free notion, the people accept the responsib ility for their own welfare; while in o slave notion that responsibility is turned over the government. Or, to put it another way , meaning the some thing, in a free notion the state gets ·its right from the people; while in o slave nation , · the people get their rights, if any, from the state.
WHAT KIND OF PERSON WANTS FREE ENTERPRISE?
He wants to run his own busi-ness. He wonts to select his own doc-tor. He wonts to make his own bargains. He wonts to buy his own insu-ranee. He wants to select his own reading matter. He wants to provide his own old age. He wonts to make his own con· tracts. He wonts to select his own charities . He wonts to educate his own children as he wishes . He wonts to make his own in-9estments . He wants to select his own friends . He wants to provide his own recreation . He wants to compete freely in the market place. He wonts to grow by his own efforts. He wants to profit from his own errors. He wonts to compete with ideas. He wonts to be o man of good will.

THE CAFETERIA STORY: AFTERMATH AndyKing
In the early morning hours of Tuesday, February 11, the occupants of the Faculty Club starte~ to emerae from their expropriated headquarters mto the Student Dini~g Room. Fourteen hours later they were aone in the gentle escort of Montreal's
b ' . Finest, but behind them they had left some remm-ders of their visit.
In the student dining room, many of the tab les and chairs had been removed to be thrown down the escalator and stair well to block access to the parts of the buklding which they held . As a result, 52 tables and 300 - 325 chairs were damaged , some beyond repair. The parquet floor of the Banquet Hall, room 762, had been severely damaged , and will probably have to now be covered with a carpet. All the rooms which had been occupied had been left in a shambles beyond description.
In the kitchens, axes had been used on virtually all the refrigerator doors to gain access to the cafeteria stocks. In addition to the necessary repairs, some of the refrigerators will be useless until the whole doors have been replaced. The vending machine stocks held in the cafeteria were broken into and stolen from. The liquor supply held in the cafeteria for the catering to banquet. had been broken into, and bottles were stolen , and , for some reason, all the fire alarm boxes attached to the emergency (fire) exists were destroyed by repeated blows from the axes welded by the occupiers.
During that night, many of the vending machines were vandalized . The candy bar machine on the Sixth floor
had a wire brush pushed into the coin slot, shorting out the · coin mechanism, and blowing out the circuits of the machine. The soft drink machi ne on the Tenth floor had the water supply to the compresser turned off, blowing out the cooling unit of the machine . In the basement, the coin changing machine was ripped from the concrete block wall , and money was stolen from it, and at the same time, the panels of the hot and cold drink vending machines were kicked in. Previously, · the cigarette machine in the foyer of the cafeteria had been moved into the Secretarial lounge , (one of the rooms occupied ,) inverted , broken into, and its contents pilfered.
In addition to the costs of these damages, there is the cost of the lost- revenues for the time the students were not there to patronize the machines. The vending machines, whose profits do not go into university funds, but to the student services funds, have lost revenues all the time the university was closed, in addition to Monday, February ~rd. Meanwhile, the cafeteria itself has been opened from Tuesday through Friday, February 11th - 15th, while the staff was cleaning up , but there has been no incoming revenue , a loss of $2,600 a day, and of $500 on Sa-

turday. Banquet contracts for the Banquet Hall have been lost, a serious 10-ss of revenue, as at some of them , liquor was to be served. It is feared that some of these contracts wi II never be regained.
In all this, there is however one bright note. N~wspaper and radio reports that money had been stolen from the cafeteria do not seem to be true. These reports arose when reporters found coin roll wrappers strewn over the floor of the student dining ROOM, It now appears that these wrappers were those thrown away by the cashiers the previous day, and were thrown on the floor when the occupiers emptied out the garbage over. the room.
Where the ultimate financial responsibi Ii ties for the damages and the losses will lie, who gets stuck with the bill, is not yet known. It is thought that perhaps some of the damages may be recouped through insurance. For the amount which is not recovered in this way, the funds might be made up in the context established by the university for the settlement of expenses incurred through the Anderson Affair and its aftermath. For the losses not made up through insurance coverage and university funds , the Food Services Policy Committee could recommend (but not unilateraly institute) policies or methods to recover them . One of the ways in which this could be done is for a joint decision of the Food Services Policy Committee and the Students Legislative Council to have some of the losses come out of the student service fees. While not considered likely, a precedent has been set for this procedure, at the Sherbrooke Conference. It appears that this could only be done with the consent of the S.L.C. It is fairly certain however, that the losses will not be recouped through boosting the cafeteria prices.
In spite of the shambles in which all the facilities had been left, and in spite of all the damages which had been done, the cafeteria was in partial operation by 8:30 on Tuesday morning, between 11:30 and 7:00 and supplied over 900 sandwiches and 1,500 beverages to reporters, police ·and firemen. By 8:30 a.m . the next morning the lunch counter and snack bar were operating as usual.

The Remaining 98 or 99% by Karl feige
In explaining the events of the last few wee~s. to outsiders, most of us are continuously e~phas1z1~g that the students who created most of these. disturbances make up a very small percentage of the student body_ This is immediate_ly fol~ow:?. ~y _a question that goes more or less like this: If it 1s such a small minority, how can they run over the remaining 98 or gg~·c of the students?". How indeed? This is a question we should all ask ourselves and give some serious thought to.
Our · first thoughts will ------------undoubtedly go to the problem Sir George at hand and we will come up with an answer of: They Drops U.G.E.Q. should have done this or should not have done that. But the real answer to the question lies deeper than that. In fact, it lies with the "remaining 98 or _99~,:, of the student body. It lies with them because for the most part they are completely apathetic.
Too many students spend their years at Sir George doing nothing more than travelling to and from school. They are content to let others run student affairs, often to their disliking, yet they seldom if ever speak up. The Georgian is a case in point. As the students' newspaper it should represent the students' views, yet it rarely does. If a poll was ever taken for or against The Georgian policy, The Georgian would fail miserably.
A similar type of situation is true regarding the Students Association. Very few students know anything about the S.A. or its functions. Oh, they may have voted, but very few could now tell you their faculty representatives or any of the S.A. executives. Some students, if they know where the 3rd floor is, have never been there and know nothing of the great many services there for them. Yet they support them financially.
The fact that some members of the student leaders are now in jail and others are free only by a quirk of fate should make us all think! When student leaders, elected or appointed , use their position of power for their own personal end and knowingly go against the majority view, we should ask them to resign.
On February 11th, D.B. Clarke said, "This is not a time for vindictiveness or revenge but for soul searching and re-examination of values" . With this in mind let us now build a fou,ndation within the student body so that we will never again witness a day like last Tuesday. Let us all re olve to take a more active role in
by J.P. Robinson In a meeting of t he S.L.C.
February 14th, 1969 a motion was presented to the Counci l by Mr. Alan Hilton External V.P. and seconded by Mr. Peter Klein (Education V.P.) calling for the withdrawa l of the S.G. W. U. Students' Association from the Union Generale des Etudiants de Quebec, to be effective Friday February 14th, 1969. Reasons for the motion were given as follows: 1.) UGEQ'S statement of position regarding the separation of Quebec from Canada released before Christmas of 1968 and 2.) the fact that UGEQ, in a statement to the pres•n Fe. 12th, condoned the waWn violence and destruction that took place in this university on Tuesday Feb. 11th, 1969.
The motion of amendment presented by Mr. Midvidy was, as recounted above, subsequently defeated and the main motion, as presented by Alan Hilton , was called to a vote by the Chairman. The motion was carried by a vote of 11 for , 3 against, with no abstentions. Notably, Messrs. Harris, Dowie and Midvidy wished to have their names formally recorded in t he minutes as voting in op. tion to the motion. From . s point the Students' Association of S. G. W. U. was formally from UGEQ.

00 • '
Borri in Virebsk Russia in 1887, MARC CHAGA L was one of eight children of a poor Jewi h family, which ·relied heavily upon religious belief to provide comfort against poverty. His Judeo-Russian background plays and important role in the inrerpretation of his work. Using bright colours, though sometimes pasrel, M ARC CHAGALL jumbles the inner images of his mind , and superimposes one upon the other. · The laws of anatomy, perspective , and gravity do not exist in his magical work. . This is closely paralleled to the world as preceived in dreams. Reproduced here are several of MARC CHAGALL' s early works.

ASSOCIATION ASSEMBLY MEETING
FEB. 13 1969
As a result of · the events which took place February 11 , 1969 at S.G. W.U., a special meeting of the electoral College ( now referred to as the assembly) was called to discuss the events and E.S.A. policy . About 50 persons a ttended. Ross Miles as chairman outlined the purpose of the meering and subd ivided those present into three . groups to discuss ( 1 ) Att itudes ( 2 ) Present Policy, and ( 3 ) Futu re Policy.
Group ( 1 ) - Att itudes. With refe rence to the An
derson case, some members of the group felt that other profe sso rs should have been called in a s med iators. Also it may ha ve helped to organi ze st ud e nts in o pposition to t he ag ita to rs, i.e . students to a gitate aga inst the ag itato rs . As the administration was faced w it h a tota ll y new proble m, the g roup felt tha t o n t he whole t he ad mi nistration hand led t he situat ion a s best it could . Some felt that the proceedings should have been confi ned to the un iversity facts to the p ress. The g roup felt that the E.S. A. should remain neutral rather than backing the adm inistrat ion . It was suggested tha t the administration be approached to consider e xpanding the academic yea r to make up for lost classes .
Group ( 2 ) - Present Po icy . Although the d iscussion was
inconclusive the key issue seemed to be the role of the E.S. A. The lack of pa rticipa tion and general apathy of evening students contributes to the deviant behaviour of the minority. The group felt that more representation and communication is of the utmost necessity. The area of d iscipline should be a funct ion of the administration while the E.S.A. should occupy itself with curriculum and co-ordination with other un iversity bodies . The group thought the present role of the E.S. A. administration should be redefined with a possible restructuring of the E.S. A. council. The opinion was that these bodies are not being used effectively. The group suggested discussions continue at a later date when more time is available .
Group (3) - Future Policy. The group recommended that
the emergency regulations be implemented now· and reviewed at the end of the academic year. A proposal was made to donate up to $5,000 to cover losses, however this was restated in the formal countil meeting m the amount of $3,000. A committee was formed to investigage needs of faculty and post graduate students to determine the funds

requ ired in these cases. The group recommended (a ) that the E.S.A. endorse the eme rgency regulations to be put into force only for the remain, ing academic year, after which the E.S. A. reserves the right in judgement whether these regulations should be extended, ( b) that any action on the part of any person or group of persons which acts with the intention of obstructing the academic process, and or by these actions destroys or attempts to destroy university property , be punished according to the laws of the land .
At the formal council meeting these two recommendations were subsequently adopted on mot ions by Ray Cornell.
EVENING STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 13, 1969
Prese nt : 4 voting council members, 1 non-voting member.
Absent : Hans Schacter, Marg ue ri te Row e .
Cha irman Bill O 'Mahony d rew attent ion to the agenda which was to deal w ith pol icy of the E.S. A. rega rd ing recen t student uprising of February 11, 1969 and budget j tems.
Before proceed ing , Ross Miles pointed out that Hans Schacter had been absent fo r two consecutive meetings and was therefore not in good standing w ith the E.S. A. council. Mr.· Miles subm itted a motion of non confidence in Mr . Schacte r under Article VIII, Section 4 of the revised constitution which states " An office shall be decla red vacant if its incumbent is absent for more than two consecutive meerings without a valid reason" . Seconded by Ray Cornell. Discussion followed point ing out that Mr . Schacter was attending a class and therefore had a valid reason . However, seeing as the hour was eleven o'clock, it was felt that Mr. Schacter could have returned to the council meeting . After a short debate the motion was carried . 7 in favour, 2 against , 6 absentions . Mr . Schacter will be asked to give valid reasons fo r his absence.
1. Policy (a) Motion by Ray Cornell :
That the E.S.A. endorse the Emergency Regulations with a promise that these regulations be put into effect only for the remaining academic year, after which the E.S.A. reserves the right in judgement whether these regulations should be .. ex: tended. Seconded by Ross Miles. 13 in favour, 2 against, 2 abstentions. Motion carried .
(b) Motion by Ray Cornell : Be it resolved that any. action on the part of any person or group of persons which acts with intention to obstruct the academic process, and, or by these actions destroys or attempts to destroy university property , be punished according the laws of the land . Seconded by B. Chorny.
I
Discussion followed and an amendment was made so that the motion now reads : Be it resolved that any action on the part of any person or group of persons which acts w ith intention to obstruct the academic process, will be disciplined by the university , and, if by· their actions destroy any university property they will be punished according to the laws of the land .. 13 in favour , 3 against , 1 abstention . Motion carried .
A discussion took place as to students' needs re a restoration fund . The general consensus was that post graduate work should be of primary concern ..
Motion by Ross Miles : (a ) Be it moved that the E.S.
A. executive vote in favour of financial need of faculty or graduate students.
( b ) That a comm ittee of th ree
( 3 ) be appointed by the president , he being a fourth (4th ) member to establ ish need 'tor funds.
(c ) If need is established, , funds should not exceed three
thousand ($3,000 ) dollars . ( d) That the committee so
formed have authority to dispense funds .
Seconded by B. Chorny. A discussion followed as to how the committee was to dec ide the allocation of funds . Mr. O 'Mahony pointed out that it was not the council ' s purpose at this time to discuss the function of the committee. 9 in favour , 1 against , 4 abstent ions. Motion carried .
Bill O ' Mahony then ·appointed a committee of three to establish the need for funds.
2 . Budget Approvals

WHAT'S WRONG WITH COLLEGES? ( REPRINTED FROM NATIONAL REVIEW)
First, we hove too many students . At least half of those undergraduates already on our campuses haven't the foggiest notion of why they're present . Ill prepared by their secondary schooling, and uninterested in the higher learning, these young people ore easy prey for the professorial demagogue or the student agitator.
- Second, we don't hove enough good professors and instructors . The indiscriminate expansion of college and university, ever since World War II, hos caused a demand for college . teachers which cannot be supplied without a marked decline in the quality of the overage new in structor . Moreover, the in tensive, specialized training of young Ph .Ds . (when it isn't a sham ) hos little to do either with successful teaching or with the attainment of wisdom.
Third, the typical college curriculum is a loathsome mess, offering a smattering of everything, doing nothing well. Many students come to despite their course of studies-and with reason . Socking the administra tion building is more fun .
Fourth , the college and the university-particularly the lotter, and not even the great p rivate universities ore exempthove become the servants of big government and big industry, engaging in elaborate research undertakings at the expense of the works of the mind .
... Humane learning is neglected in favor of sociological boondoggling, and pure science declines into the service of technology .
There ore many other afflictions from which the higher learning suffers today; but those I' ll mention another time . Is anyth ing being done to remedy the four diseases listed above?
Nothing trory , the
much. On the congovernment and the
big foundation s, so for , actual ly labo r to make matters worse .
Consider the recent report of on offshoot of the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education, headed by Dr. Clark Kerr , whose policies as chancellor of the University of California en ded in the present chaos of that complex and bewildered institu tion .
Dr. Kerr and his Carnegie Colleagues would hove the government find the money to build right away, 50 junior col leges and 50 senior colleges and a hundr·ed more eventually ; crowd into college, by 1976, practically every high school graduate and perhaps some young folk who can 't get through high school ; a ssume a third of the total cost of all higher education ; give loons or scholarships, regardless of merit , to practically everybody, and so on and on .
Just such policies on a smal ler scale, commencing during the Truman Administration, led to our present academic discontents . Our obvious need is to improve the quality of high school instruction, rather than to inundate every campus by a wove of badly schooled young people who ore intensely bored with intellectual disciplines; but
Kerr & Co. don't worry much about that.
Where would we find the pro-fessors and in structors for such In stant Ivory Towers? Where, indeed, would we find the student-unless we mode college compulsory? How, amid the total confusion of such a mod endeavor at " equality of opportunity," could we achieve qualitative reform of the cu rri culum-and offer real intellectual opportunity to those worthy of it? Would we not create a thousand Berkeley campuses, minus the surv1v1ng intellec-tual merits of Berkeley? If this is progress-why, give me the New Left .

Strange Case
of
Bill M idvidy
Midvidy is the President of the Engineering Students' Association. Previously he never attended any meetings or had anything to do with Engineering activities until he showed up at a meeting where Garsonin railroaded moderate Tony Marcil out on a technicali ty. It would have looked bad for Garsonin to move in, and therefore newcomer Midvidy was rubbed-stamped in by the Council.
Since his non-elected grab for power Midvidy has consistently voted against the views of virtually all Engineering Students.
THE S.L.C. MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 1969
On a motion by Marty Cutler to support the stand of neutrality by the SLC Executive Midvidy voted against along with Mark Medicoff. The SLC overwhelmingly passed the motion.
A motion by Peter Klein to condemn the occupation of the S.A. offices and Faculty Lounge was also passed overwhelmingly. However Midvidy was the lone dissenter.
AT A MEETING OF THE S.L.C. ON FEBRUARY 14th the following events took place:
There was a motion to nominate Alan Hilton as External Vice President. This was passed but Midvidy voted against.
There was a motion to oust Bowman as Editor of the Georgian. 12 voted in favour , Powers abstained and Midvidy Dowie and Harris voted against. Norm Lazare was voted in as interim editor but Midvidy _abstained on thi s.
There was a motion to withdraw .from UGEQ because of their anti -English bias and their endorsement of rioters. Midvidy voted on the side of UGEQ.
A motion was submitted to give $1,000 to those in jail. Midvidy and Jukelevics abstained while 8 of the SLC voted against.
A motion was introduced to resuspend Professor Anderson. Midvidy and Jukelevics abstained, Dowie voted for and there were 8 against.
CONCLUSION
Bill Midvidy's record of behaviour and voting is questionable considering tha t he represents an electora te of engineering students who hold views diametrically opposed to his.

GEORGIAN SPORTS with Dout Hastie
SWIMMERS SCORE DOUBLE TRIUMPH The SGWU Georgians swim
ming team this past week-end won an unprecedented seventh - straight OSLAA swimming championship. The previous weekend Coach Doug Insleay' s aquamen won the Coupe de Quebec for swimming by edging McGill 305 points to 299. Overall in three meets Sir George garnered 610 points while second-place McGill had only 591.
The swimming team was paced by John Hawes, Leonard Chase, Doug Hogg and Clifford Barry. Hawes won
the 100 yeard Back Stroke, was second in the 400 yards Medley Relay team. Chase won the 200 yards Breast Stroke , the 200 yards Indi vidual Medley and was alos a member of the winning Medley Relay Team. Hogg placed second behind Hawes in the 200 yards Back Stroke and third in both the 200 yards Individual Medley and the 100 yards Back Stroke. Barry was second in both the 100 and 200 yards Butterfly and was also a member of the winning Medley Relay Team.
Peter Cross was the fourth member of the winning Medley Relay team and also placed second behind Chase in the 200 yards Breast Stroke. Pierre Dussault placed third in the 400 yards Freestyle. The winning Medley Relay Team had a record time of 3:51 :6 and it was the win in this event, the last one of the meet, which won the swimming meet for Sir George. The next stop for the swimmers is the national finals which will be held in the first week of March in the Maritimes.
WEDNESDAY HOCKEY GAME TO AID RESTORATION FUND The Athletics Department
of SGWU has decided to donate their share of the gate receipts from Wednesday's hockey game with Loyola to the SGWU Restoration Fund.
The Georgian puck squad close out their 1968-69 season this coming Wednesday night at the Montreal Forum as they take on their arch rival from Loyola College. It is an important game for David Die' s garnet and gold team as many people feel that Loyola will be the team to beat in the play-offs.
In three previous meetings, with the west end school, the Georgians have faired fairly well winning once , losing once and tying once. In league play the Georgians have the upper hand with three out of a possible four points.
"If we can hustle like we did in those games against Loyola we should do all right," said Coach David Dies recently. Dies was not happy with his team's performance on recent trips to the Maritimes and the Eastern Townships. The defence was especially lax as time and time again they gave away the puck in their own zone.
Coach Dies is hoping for a big effort from his forward line of Tim Webster, John Murray and Barry Cullen. This trio has been consistent all year. Webster currently is second in team scoring with 19 goals and 27 assists for 46 points. Cullen, perhaps the best rookie on the squad, has 30 points, Murray has 27 points - 13 goals and 14 assists.
Another line known more for its defensive work is -Bob Philip, Mike Bonkoff and Greg Harmon. Overall this line has been on for fewer goals than any other. Philip, a third year centre, has also done well offensively with 11 goals and 11 assists. ICE CHIPS:
Defenseman Gary Thornton has had the cast removed from his broken ankle, is already back on skates and could conceivably be ready to play in a short time . However, injuries continue to plague the Georgians as Phil Scheuer continues to play despite the fact that he is suffering from a very painful hernia which will most likely require surgery after the hockey season is over, and Toby O'Brien is
playing with a cast on his right hand which hampers his efforts considerably. The OSLAA all-star teams should be announced sometime this week. Who are your choices?
The OSLAA HOCKEY PLAY-OFFS will be held in Sherbrooke this year on FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28th and SATURDAY MARCH 1st. The SEMI-FINALS will take place on Friday night with the final set for the following afternoon at 2:00 P.M. The first semi-final game on Friday at 6:00 P.M. will see Loyola hosting the fourth place finishers while the night-cap will see the second and third place teams clashing. The Palais de Sport in Sherbrooke seats approximately 5000 people and tickets will be sold ONLY at the door. There will be NO ADVANCE SALE of tickets at all. However this reporter has been told by Glen Cole of the Athletics Department that tickets should be in PLENTIFUL supply for any Georgian supporters wishing to drive to Sherbrooke for the play-offs, i.e. A SELL-OUT IS NOT EXPECTED.
ICEMEN BOMBED. TWICE IN TOWNSHIPS
The hockey Georgians continued their lethargic play as they dropped a pair of week-end games to Bishop's and Sherbrooke. The team now has lost five games in a · row (including their last three OSLAA contests). However, fortunately for the icemen, they had previously clinched a playoff spot. Friday night in Lennoxville the Georgians played as if body-checking had been banned as they dropped a 6 to 3 decision to Bishop's. Captain Toby O'Brien, sporting a cast on his fractured right wrist, Barry Cullen and Bill Ellyett scored for the losing Georgians. Bishop's goals came from the sticks of Ken Chipman (3), Tom Allen, Bob Sommerville and Don Cleyn.
The following day in Sherbrooke the score was 8 to 3 in favour of Sherbrooke as Mike B9nkoff, Lorne Davis and Barry Cullen counted in 'another losing effort. The game was marked by the
usual incompetent refereeing that is characteristic of the OSLAA as once again the officials let the game get out of hand with the result that eighty minutes in penalties were handed out. Four players (two from each team) were ejected; for Sir George John Campbell received a major · penalty for fighting and Toby O'Brien a major for high sticking, while Sherbrooke's goaltender was bounced for trying to decapi ta te Bryce Liberty.
To say the least Coach Dave Dies was not at all pleased with 'his team's performance in the two weekend games. If it were not for the brilliant goaltending of Tommy Anderson the scores would have been much worse as the Georgians were outshot 106 to 44 in the two games. The best of the worst was team Captain Toby O'Brien who played better with one good hand than the rest of the team did with two good ones each.
Greene Cops Individual Badminton Title But... Tony Greene, a third year
science student at Sir George , followed up his sister'sperformance of a week ago by beating the field in the "A" singles division of the OSLAA Badminton Tournament held at Macdonald last weekend. However, his efforts still were not enough to allow Sir George to bring home the trophy which they won last year. At the end of play, the complicated scoring system had Sherbrooke, Royal Military College, and Sir George tied with an equal number of points. The three-way tie was then broken down according to the number of games won and lost. This left Sir George
and R.M.C. with an 8 and 4 won-lost record and Sher"brooke with a 9 and 3 tally. Consequently, Sherbrooke walked off with the trop4y and Sir George the runner-up spot (Sir George had beaten RMC in team play). The doubles team consisting of Mike Byzack and Romesh Athraide played strongly throughout the tournament losing their only match to the Sherbrooke duo. In the "B" singles department Steve Hivok met strong opposition from his competition but managed to play boldly in all his matches emerging from the tournament with a one and three wop.-los_t record_.
February 17th, 1969 THE PAPER 1 5
B.B. WARRIORS WIN TENTH STRAIGHT Ooach Fred Whitacre's basketball Georgians ended their OSL schedule the sarne way they began it (on a losing note) as the Loyola Warriors literally ran the Georgians out of the stadium on route to a 91 to 40 win last Friday night at Loyola. Jim Aitken was eigh rnan for the Georgians with 14 points while Terry O'Brien contributed 10. The basketball team thus ended the OSL sea son with a 3-7 won - lost record . However, it should be noted that two of these losses were by· the very slim margin of just one point. A measely two more points in each of those two games would have meant a play-off spot for the Georgians.
BOARD ACTION DOWNS SGWU
ICE GEORGIANS DOUBLE DIPPE.D IN MARITIMES
Coach Dave Dies and his Georgian Pucksters took a break from O.S.L. action last weekend and travelled to the Maritimes to meet St. Mary's and Acadia . The result, 2 losses by identical 8-5 scores and a broken wrist for team captain Toby O'Brien. e Friday night against St. Mary's t he Georgians fell behind 4-0 early in the second period mainly due to some sloppy defensive play and poor backchecking. The Georgians came back to tie the game at 5-5 with 6 minutes gone in the third period only to have S( Mary's capitalize on a spearing penalty against defenceman Larry Meehan. Mike Bonkoff, Toby O'Brien, Phil Scheuer, Jim Webster , and John Murray scored in the St. Mary's game. O'Brien' s goal came after he
A was rammed into the boards . W, by a St. Mary's defenceman
and it was that check that broke the team captain's wrist. Colin McLernon was in nets for the Georgians on Friday and stopped 46 of the 54 shots directed his way.
Saturday at Acadia, the Georgians fell behind 6-0
before they managed to get on the scoresheet: Again, it was sloppy defensive work that was the Georgian downfall. Time and again the Georgian defenceman played give away with the puck in their own zone. One defensive pair was on for 6 of the 8 goals against on Saturday, while the other was on for 5 of the 8 on Friday. ~~~~~~~~~~

16 THE PAPER February 17th, 1969
POLITICS PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE by Em11st Zu11nd11/
ASSASSINATION "SOVIET STYLE"
This last week for the first time in the history of the U.S .. R. has the regime admitted that one of the citizens of · the "workers paradise" had attempted to assassinate someone.
We read with as tonishment that, as Pravda '(which means " Truth" in Russian) put it, a "schizophrenic gunman fired at a cavalcade of cosmonauts in the Kremlin wednesday".
The official version stated that he fired at a limousine carrying Cosmonauts Maj. General Georgy Beregovoy, 4 7; Valentina NikolayevaTereshkova, 31; her husband Andrian Nikolayev, 39; and Alexei Leonov, . 34 - the first man to walk in space. A driver and a police motorcycle escort rider were wounded by the bullets, Beregovoy was supposedly cut by flying glass.
The attacker was overpowered by "bystanders" and arrested immediately.
Now let' s look at this story and wha t it reveals·;
1.) The Commu ni sts would have us believe that ever since they massa cred their way to power, their society is so just, good and perfect that there is Ii ttle crime, hardly any decadence a nd they have boasted loudly that " no atte mpts at the Lives of the
oviet leade rs" have been made a long the lines of the ,J . F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy assassinations.
- Answer: A sas.sination · and po li tical murder do happen in the Soviet nion , but u ually there are no We ·te rn reporters around to tell the story, as was the case during the "Cosmonauts parade" .
'.2 . ) " chizophrenic' ' gu n-man , was the label attached to the " oviet citizen ' ' that fi red at the motorcade of the Party Bigwigs.
Answer: The oviets, after Sta lin 's mass deportations and political concentration camps were exposed in the Free World , tarted to incarcerate poli tical prisoners (di se nters) in huge " Menta l Hosp ita ls".
Why?. Firstly, if you are or ever have b en in a nuthouse you a re branded "di turbed" or even "i nsa ne" , and therefore nobody will take seriou ·ly what you said in the past or will say in the future, ven if you a re re leased.
Secondly, in a dictatorship , a nyone that was or is a poli tica l prisoner, becomes a hero to all those peop le who arc against the regime (Ghandi. Nehru. Kenyatta, Nkrumah etc.) in power. By suffe ring without hreaking, they assume ..great mora l
stature and eventually rally the dissenters and sometimes overthrow the system.
By labeling your oppo ition "insane or schizophrenic ' a nd by confining them to
_ Mental Institution , you rob the dissenters of even this last vestige .of legitimacy and the stature of a persecuted political prisoner.
3.) The gunman attacked the " cosmonauts" ... wounding one slightly.
- Answer: The Ru ssian people are justifiably proud of their space achievements, and the Kremlin propaga ndists use it continuously to deflect from all the other shortcomings of their repressive regime (like the invasion of Czechoslovakia, Hungary, failing agriculture , insuf-
- ficient consumer goods etc.) . By claiming that the gunman " wounded" one of the space heros, the regime diabolically diverted the peoples' attention away from the fact that one, lone desperat.tcitizen (probably red up with the police terror and the official hypocracy of .. democratic rights to di:;sent" etc." finally took a gun and decided to avenge the million of Russians that have perished in the "slave labour camps of Siberia" or who are im prisoned in the "mental wards" of the Soviet Union. The only way he knew how was to shoot at t he biggest limou ine.
He did not shoot at the cosmonaut , they were clearly visible for all to see, he aimed at Brezhnev and President Podgorny and only missed them by a limou ine.
4.) The attacker was overpowered a nd arrested im mediately.
- Answer: It is common knowledge that every seve nth Russian is employed by the
tate to spy on his neighbours ''fulltime" a nd every fourth Russian i paid a retainer by the State to "i nform" on hi , wife,... brother, mother, teacher or whomever e lse he happens to dislike. T he bysta nders were like hired movie extra in the pay of t he
.K.V. D. (Secret Police). Keep in mind that those
seve n in te llectua ls that protested the invasion of Czechoslovakia in Red Square were also arre ted by "bystanders were Secret Police Agents, that had been trailing them for over '.2 years.
5.) Another possible outcome of thi s assassi nation attempt is the rei nsti tu tion of Sta lini st purges, as there is now a publicly acceptab le excuse.
Conclusion The oviet leadership its
on a powderkeg. The Kremlin dictator · are
vulnerab le . The key to their overthrow is not H -bom bs, _ atomic missiles or aircraft carriers. The a nswer to tyranny lies with the Russian people and especially the young. It also lies with the different national and ethnic groups which have been persecuted for decades.
We must help them in this task. Our government won't do it. The people and students of the Free World have to support "liberalization' in Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and Poland and must insi st on greater intellectual freedom for the students in the Soviet Union itself.
STUDENTS HELP CLEAN UP
Andy King
The story of one of the great.est student efforts in the histc r} f>f Sir George :;tarted on Tuesday afternoon. February 11th, when fire erupted in the area of the Ninth Floor Computer Center. After the fire was extinguished, around Four in the afternoon , there were numerous calls from students who volunteered to come in and help clean up the university building. The phone numbers of these students were taken , and they were told that they would be contacted at a later time. After the announcement in The Paper that student help wou ld be welcomed. on Wednesday morning. the phones kept red hot for two days, as at time there were as many as five secretaries answeri ng the calls offering help. The fir t clean-up crew consisting of twentyfive students entered the niversity at 1:2:30 that day, Wednesday, to he lp with the restoring of t he Science and Engineering Library. The second crew, con isting of a large number of students, entered two hours later, and commenced cleaning clas -rooms. There was a dedicated effort to restore t he building to as close to its origi na l condition as possible. On Thursday, the crews a rrived to put in a nother long day. They were involved in everything from removing the a he from the
inth Floor to wa hing desks and classrooms. ft was a shame that only a small number of the many many student who volunteered cou ld b used, but thanks to the u nse lfi h efforts of those volunteers who were able to help, the niver ity will be able to re-open sooner , and with a saving of t housands of dollars.
with lierb Bernstein
I'm often a ked about ome of my personal expe rie nces a nd like every other pi lot that I know, I'm only _too happy to get a n opportunity to sound off. Any person who ha s ever flown an airplane whether he is a 10,000 hour Air Canada captain, or a brand new "ab ini tio" student pilot, has acquired his share of " happenings", a nd if you get a couple of them together for a few hours, the topic of conversation is inevitably limited to flyi ng, flying, a nd more flying.
Strange as it may seem though, I feel that some of my most memorable experiences occured on the ground64 and not in the air. Of course, I can also re late events that happened while airborne, but somehow the people connected with aviation are a ' 'breed apart", a nd will extend courtesies to pilots that are far beyond the ''call of d uty" .
For example, in 1962, while still a relatively inexperienced airman, I flew to Toronto on business and found that my rented car was delayed. Apparently they expected me to arrive at the main terminal building, but I landed at the other end of Malton Airport. So, without any hesitation, one of the line boys at Field Aviation gave me the keys to his own car, and told me to take my time, as he was not in a hurry. When I offered to pay him ,- he became insulted and said he wasn't in the car rental business, and wouldn't even accept payment for the gas. That kind of treatment is a rarity in these times of dog-eat-dog, and although I didn' t get that fellow's name , I'll never forget that incident.
Because my business in Toronto took longer than anticipated , by the time I took off it was near dark, and so I decided to pull into Oshawa to spend the night. I landed at the Oshawa Flying Club , where again, I was giv.en the red carpet treatment, George Slocomb , who was, and still is, the manager of O.F.C. made sure my plane was safely hangared, and he not only drove me into town, but he lped me check into a hotel a nd offered to pick me up in the morning. In fact, he even invited me to hi home for dinner. These a nd simila r kindnesses were repeated ove r and over aga in a nd as a result I have met some very wonderful people, so consequently when I eventua lly found myseu· in a po ition to reciprocate , 1 took every opportu nity to he lp pilots a nd passenger arriving in iti ne ra nt a ircraft.
One night during the summer of 1967 the weathe' r at Montreal was below minimum, so several aircraft bound for Expo topped over at Kin-ston , where I was working at the time. Among these , were two couples from Toronto in a Twin Engined Piper Apache. a nd a couple from Cleveland who arrived in a Mooney. I drove these peop le into town, a nd tried several hote l in an attempt to find accomodation for them. They finally found rooms at the Holiday inn and after they were checked in, I was invited to join them for dinner, and eventua lly spe nt a terrific eve ning. ot only did I meet some pretty wonderful pl'Ople but they also met each other. and so when they left the following day, they flew down to Montrea l together.
A coup le of days later , whi le listening in on the uni com. I heard them chatting .away on 1:2:2.8 me. which i · t he private air to ground unicorn freque ncy. T hey had spe nt their time at Expo together, a nd whe n they came within range, t hey ca lled Kingston to say ''He llo" to me over the radio, and to t hank me for my hospita lity. They a lso said that they had toured Ex po together, a nd we re returning home by way of Kingston especially to te ll me that they were planning to visit each other frequently, a nd to invi te me to their homes whenever I happened to be in their vici ni ty.

PATRICK BURNSME correspondent in exile exclusive to THE PAPER
Dear Boss: Thanks for sending the·
bearded beagle in Sexie Mike to my rescue - but, no thanks! I got that phobia about little planes with one wing and two propellors, or is it two wings and • one propellor? Besides, Ivania the Wonderful and I are just getting along fine now. Oh, didn't I tell you about her?
So much has been happening lately, what with all the sunshine , revolutionary trainings, etc. , that I'm mixed up about the sequence of events. Oh yeah! Now I remember. I finished my last report to you saying how we peppered your replica with verbal diarhea on the shooting range. Gee, I sure don't know what the Commies here got against you personally, boss, because everyone here likes "The Pape r" . No matter what ,vashrooms you go into, there it is.
Well, after I finished my training on the shooting range I was pulled into W squad for special training purposes in inflammatory oratory. No wonder you never win an argument, boss! You don' t know how to confuse the issues. Besides that, you lack in word power to dress up ordinary sentences. For instance , if someone asks you: "How are you?" a Commie wou ld never answer with just "fine" !
Oh no! That' s too easy. After you 've been through W Squad, you 'd answer like this. "You ask me how I am , eh? We ll, just let me tell you this! I'm grieved at my heart to see the suffering of the oppressed working class working their knuckles to the bone while a fascist rat
like you basks in the sunshine of wealth created by the sweat of their brows. You should be ashamed of yourself, standing there, asking stupid questions like this, whi le there is a whole world to conquer. Down with imperialism! "
Is'nt that beautiful, boss? Don' t ever ask me how I enjoyed my steak - you might never, even want to eat again! I really did well in W Squad and was soon posted to S.S. duty. By the way, S.S. stands for subversion squad. And that's where I met Ivania the Wonderful.
We often went to Varedero beach, enjoying the sunshine , seafood and good Cuban rum , while I thought of you facist rats basking in the snowstorm and oppressing the plumbers, carpenters, bus drivers and used car salesmen.
Ever so often, just for fun, we 'd drive over to the airport and have a look at bewildered passenger getting off hi -jacked airliners.
Everytime Ivania would see a youngster with long hair and baggy clothes - she 'd loose her cool.
"Look at that! " she 'd shout "Look at that decadent, capitalistic pig! Now in Russia, you 'd never see that! We got the draft there. Two years in the army would straighten these characters out but good. Yes sir! And none of that sit down, sleep in, love out-nonsense either. We keep our students so busy with work that they have no time for monkey business. And none of t his easy admission bit either. We only educate the cream of the crop. The rest - into the factory. And in the summer?
GUPPIES
Up into Siberia - working on the virgin farms. Pot? LSD? Never! A drug pusher is an enemy of the state and gets slot".
"Bu.t-but Ivania" , I stammered" I this is what communism is all about, please tell me more! "
" Sure, Burnsme Patt. You see , a Communist society is a controlled society. Everything is run by plan. You can' t love people in a communist society with opposing plans or (horror) who compete with one another. T hat is why we control and censor the press to suppress all ideas which do not originate from the top.
"Aha" , I whistled in surprise "that's why you throw your writers and poets into prison, so that they can' t create dissension" .
"Precisely!" "Funny. I a lways thought
that that was done to promote - the sale of t heir writings in
the Western World. Like the way the promote dirty books over here.
" Silly boy", giggled Ivanra" It's not like that at all".
"But seriously, lvania" I asked , watching another plane load of passengers being herded off the airport "what do you do against the intellectuals who rise up and challenge your authority?".
"Ah, now you' re ta ling", replied lvania with a gleam in her eye " remember East Germany, Poland , Hungary and Checoslovakia ?"
"Yes" I shuddered affirmative ly.
"Well , my dear boy" explained lvania patiently "that is where a communist system really has it over the North American lmperialistists. When there is trouble , we don' t bother sending in the police. We delcare martial law and roll out the tanks. Long live the revolu tion! "
