V]III3WSACCENTS SWEET

Tha Oxford undergraduate maga-zine, through an article by its editor ,disclaims all responsibility for wha tis termed the Oxford accent . Theyclaim Oxford is not responsible for itat all, at all, and wish a note to bemade of this.

The students at Oxford don't mindbeing called Communists, blue stock-ings, woozy-minded, but the Oxfordaccenters? Puleeze l

The accent, they say, is traced toCockney English, is a form of snob-bery, and moreover, it has disap-peared .

Professor Knox of University Col-lege states that there Is no proof thatit originated at Oxford . The BritishBroadcasting Company doesn't like it,and is making progress toward Itselimination on the ether waves.

If you go to Oxford and mentionaround the campus that it's a joll yaaaaaawftuhnoon, well, when you sa ythat, smile!

IDEALS AND NEW DEALSThe Gazette at the University of

Western Ontario has been buzzingabout the campus in search of infor-mation about the ideal mate, andhere's what they found :

The ladles wanted: a gentleman sixfeet high, and 172 pounds of him ,medium dark In complexion, h omustache, in sporty tweeds, good atsports, bridge and dancing, definitelythey wanted him dancing. There wasno mention of intelligence or man-ners . What is this modern yout hcoming to ?

The gentleman wanted her five foo tfive, and 122 pounds (probably indi-cating a light eater), good at games ,bridge and dancing, specially danc-ing, a sense of humour, and moder-ately fair academic standing . Theywanted black hair, blue eyes, andfair skin.

One of the best yearly addressesto be given on the campus by a Uni-versity professor is F. H. Soward' sannual resume of world events, tak-ing place this term on Wednesday ,March 7 .

The lecture will take the form ofan open meeting of the Internationa lRelations Club, with a supper preced-ing the feature, which is scheduledto take place at 7 :30 in Union Col-lege. Those desiring to attend thesupper are asked to get in touch withJoan Clotworthy as soon as possible .

AT THE PLAYThe International Players delighte d

a capacity house Saturday night witha farcical comedy about a "crook,"called "Believe Me Xantippe." Howa crook melodrama could be a farceIs not apparent until one knows thatthe performance of the crime is sanc-tioned by a detective and that th efugitive from the strong arm of thelaw makes his escape from jail withthe full co-operation of the deputysheriff.

The plot of the play centers arounda bet made by George MacFarland ,a man about town, (ably portrayedby Leyland Hodgson) that he cancommit a crime and not be caughtby any member of the protectiveforces of the country till after oneyear has passed . Sufficient is it tosay that he almost reaches the endof the year only to be captured b yDolly Kamman (Barbara Brown) thedaughter of a sheriff . The inevitableconsequences ensue . They fall Inlove. From there on the plot becomesmore involved and more humorous .The play is well worth seeing an dperformances will continue the restof the week .

Musical Evening

"Imagine a musician capable ofwriting a concerto at the age of 4and a symphony when only 13--suchwas the divinely Inspired genius ofMozart," stated Mrs. Edith Milloy atSaturday's Vancouver Institute meet-ing, which, under the guidance of theB. C. Music Teacher's Federation,took the form of an "Evening o fMusic."

In opening the program Mrs . Milloygave a brief resume of the life ofMozart whose works supplied themusical program . "Mozart's worksare always clear, refreshing an dtransparent. Unlike many of thegreat masters he wrote with ease, sohis compositions are characterized byspontenelty, happiness and freshness.

Divine Inspiration"Although he only lived to be 3 5

he wrote 49 symphonies, 26 stringquartettes and 11 operas, not to men-tion innumerable shorter works. Hewas a most unusual child genius—a tthe age of 4 he was composing, al -though he did not yet know the notesof the scale—an undisputable case o fdivine inspiration

."Despite this marvellous heritage ,Mozart's life was not happy. He wasnot appreciated in his native villageand although he was happily mar-ried at the age of 25, he was constant-ly worried by financial troubles . Thiswas largely responsible for his pre-mature death. He was buried in apauper's grave at Vienna whose loca-tion is still unknown .

Ernest Caldwell, well known loca lbaritone, rendered selections fro mMozart's operas, The Magic Flute an dThe Marriage of Flgaro . DorothyTennant, whose soprano voice great-ly pleased the audience, sang threeMozart compositions, Deh Vienne ,Non so piu and L'Amore with violinobligate by Jean Tennant .

Russian Translatio nIn keeping with the subject of the

evening Dr. A. F. B. Clark of th eDepartment of Modern Languages ,read his translat :ou of Alexande rPushkin's "Mozart and Saliere." Inintroduction Dr. Clarke stated tha talthough the works of Pushkin arepractically unknown in the Englishspeaking world he is regarded in hisnative land as Russia's greatest poet .

The program was concluded by theVancouver String Quartette whoplayed 2 movements of Mozart's Strin gQuartette in G Major . The membersof this aggregation are Grace Hast-ings Dresser, 1st violin ; Betty New-on 2nd violin ; Harold Hogue, vio-la; and Maurice Milco, 'cello.

Caesar, Cleopatra Visit HighSchools

Curtain Rises March 1 4

By GERALD PREVOS TIt is not true that there is to be no

Players' Club spring tour this year.There has been one already.

"Caesar and Cloopetra," the springplay, may be too unweildy for trav-elling. but that is not true of "Mil.lenlum Morning," the one-act farcepresented at Homecoming last terns.So this suceseful little play is beingtaken around the city to advertise thebig one .

The club entrained for the hills ofShaughnessy on Thursday afternoonand performed at Prince of WalesHigh School. The next jump was onFriday afternoon to Magee HighSchool in Kerrisdale, Other :, '.ghschools will probably be visited thisweek .

The performances have been verysuccessful, the play, with it universityatmosphere and boisterous humor,having a strong appeal for highschool audiences .

The company on tour has consistedof the following: Nancy Symes, makeup; Tommy Lea, stage-manager ; LyleStewart, lighting; Gordon Milker, dir-ector, and the cast, Margaret Cun-ningham, a co-ed, Stu matte, a pro-lesion Archie Dick, a museum attend -ant, and Gerald Prevost, a museumspecimen ,

Jae of the features of the play i sGerald Prevost's astounding make-u pas a prehistoric Neanderthal man. Hisface is drastically remodelled withputty, and his wholes body, exceptin gthe small portion covered by a deerskin, is darkened with red stain .

This took so long that it was neces-sary to begin the make-up in th eGreen Room and to drive to theschools with a face that nearly scar-ed a service station man out of si xyear's growth and caused much mys-tery when its owner was led fro mthe car to the stage with his headswathed in a jersey.

Stu Keattis neighbors were alsohighly shocked when the ape man ap-peared on the Keats back lawn onFriday to have his picture taken incostume and make up, much to thecuriosity of all the small boys, girl sand dogs in the district .

The trips were nearly as full offun and incident as a real tour, andthe veterans of last year's jaunt fel tquite at home when they discoveredthat the dressing rooms of Vancou •vera' high schools, like those in allother parts of B . C., are invariably

Enfranchisement of the second gen-eration of Orientals in B. C. Is inevit-able, according to Professor H . F.Angus who spoke at the home of Mrs .K. Momose, Thursday evening, underthe auspices of the Japanese Students 'Club .

The speaker divided the secon dgeneration problem into two mainparts—legal discrimination, and wha the termed "de facto" discrimination .Moreover great care was taken b yhim to qualify there whom he terme dthe second generation—those born o nBritish soil, reared and educated here ,but of Oriental parentage .

Legal disabilities, including the ex-clusion from several professions ; dom-inion franchise, jury service, etc . ,were all hinged on the one disabilityof the second generation to partici-pate in the provincial elections . He

MUST WE SUFFER AGAIN ?

With nomination for Student 's Council ap-

proaching, the poor student body will onc e

more be besieged with the electoral platform s

of hopeful campus politicians .It is an unfortunate fact that platforms o f

candidates for office on this campus are con-sistently the most banal and fatuous imagin-able. Earnest young orators trot out all th e

worn bromides that have been evoking yawn s

since 1915. The pages of the Ubyssey bristlewith somewhat illiterate letters from candi-dates, most of whom write their letters fro m

the files of the previous year .As far as constructive suggestions are con-

cerned, the ajority of platforms are , eitherutterly devoid of inspiration ,or quite unwork-able in practice .

It is about time that some bright soul in -vented some real propositions to place befor e

the student body .

WAR CLOUDS

With presidential elections looming on th e

horizon, thoughts of the coming session i n

which the new prexy must govern arise .Some things will happen which, although he

is not responsible for them, will attach a cer-tain ludricous slant to his rule . Certain things

happened in Mark Coffin's reign by which h e

will be remembered far more than the goodthings which he accomplished .

First and foremost, he will be remembere dfor the ridiculous situations which the discip-line committee placed themselves in during the

past two terms .The co-ed non-smoking rule evoked the

greatest number of laughs . The conscientiou scommittee made it a point of approaching al lsmokers of the weaker sex appearing at Var-sity functions and reminded the said delin-quents that they were liable to a fine if the ydid not extinguish their cigarettes immediately .

Upon being informed that the offenderagainst the pristine rules of the institute o flearning was not in attendance, and that there -fore the rule did not apply to them, or givensometimes, just a plain go to—, they retiredin a very undignified manner, to the amuse-ment of all bystanders .

All this happened when, far from the hotelsand halls where these dances were being held ,in fact away out here in Point Grey where th eUniversity of British Columbia happens to b esituated, girls to no small number were smok-ing freely in the various hide-outs of severa lmajor dubs and organizations here on thecampus .

Instead of turning their energies toward amore useful system of discipline, such as on ethat would clear the library of those selfishindividuals who hog their seats while attendinglectures, this is what occupied the major shareof their attention .

Another priceless example of this "discip-line committee" whose term is shortly to ex-

And where you would be sure to pass ,I'd coil up tensely in the grass ;And my efficient fangs I'd shootInto your large fat foolish foot ,Stabbing through gaiter, sock and shoe ,Injecting venom into you .

And if you in your terror madeSilly pretence to do first-aid,I'd creep behind as you sat,Bite you again, and say, "that's that! "

Under a nice cool stone I'd lurkMerely to watch the poison work ,And at the moment when you'd seeI ' d done the business thoroughly,And you turned black, and tried to pray ,I'd laugh in my ophidian way .

crues from their fees .

That the discipline committee should pro-fess to control such activities of students of fthe campus is no more absurd than that univer-sity students should be forbidden to drink in-toxicating liquors while at the downtown cab-

But whyshould this small-minded version o fsuch, attempt to degrade, In the eyesof the large public that reads th eSports Page of the Province, the ad-mirable basketball team of whichVarsity students should be, and Ithink are, proud ?

Surely the team, that has alreadygone far this year and that may poe-sibly go farther once again, deserve smore support and respect than al-lowed by this publicity man seekinghis own popularity. It would seemthat Varsity students have little senseof fairplay if they allow to pass un-censored such derogatory comment sabout an outstanding University teamthat has done so much to bring fad;orable and needed publicity to theinstitution .

The vocabulary of this "would-beWalter Winchell" is indeed praise -worthy in one who advertises himsel fas a student . His article, apart fromterming his Alma Mater "dear ol dWhoozis" and the basketball play-ers "steaming athletes," contaies allthe stereotyped expressions from"sour grapes" to "the woman pays ."A certain amount of reasonable col-lege spirit is desirable even in a stu-dent of this type .

This is not the first occasion onwhich the "student" reporter haswritten caustic and unfair accounts ofVarsity sport in ruch a mean way .Why not confine them to the Ubys-soy — provided the admirable pape rwou:d accept them? But studentscould then easily . refute his wordsand too, they know him well . Thereader of the Province must take hi sword—and think of the added pub-licity for the ambitious novice.

Such exploitation of the Varsit yname and reputation by an embittere dmercenary is to me disgusting . I hopemore feel the same way about it .

In an editorial entitled "CampusAddition,' in last Friday's Ubyssey ,attention is called to the fact thatVarsity students should receive firstchance for employment on the con-struction work to be undertaken bythe Union College this summer.

I be done about it? I understand tha twe have an employment bureau here .Has it approached the Union Collegeofficials about this? If not, will ourelected representatives, the Students'Council see that they do? Or willthe whole thing be left to take car eof itself, in the usual manner of suchprojects on the campus?

Here we have a chance to do someconcrete good for our fellow students ,some of whom are in desperate needof employment during the comin gmonths . It will be a rotten shameif we do not make sure of It for them .This is a clear case where our Legionof Supreme Potentates could justifytheir existence if they would com edown out of the clouds long enoughto do so .

Drama Festival Is

Adjudged Success

(Continued from Page 1 )presentation by the Little Theatr ethat opened the Festival. With therich apartment of Florio the Floren-tine poet as scene the play carriedthrough at a high tension, to the cli-max that was probably one of themost powerful of all plays. Thosetaking part were Mary Reynolds, JoanMiller . Guy Glover, and Fairey El-lis, with G. F. Scott directing.

Suffering from contrast to this bril -liant drama was "The Wings of Life, "Camosun Players production, writte nby a young playwright and played b ya young call. Suffering from inex-perience, they gave as good a per-formance as possible with such a play .Clever lighting, giving the effect ofsunset and the coming of darknes sbehind the impressionistic scenerywas an Interesting feature of thisproduction .

"The Birthday of the Infanta," oncehailed as outstanding Players' ClubChristmas production was revivedby the Players' Club Alumni amid abeautifully arranged set . Directed byProfessor Wood this tragedy adapte dfrom the story by Oscar Wilde, waswell played by Georgina Elson, as theInfanta, Beatrice Wood, Evened Nash ,H. M. Cross as the Fantastic and BethFraser as the page.

Playing the lead herself, MaryReynolds, writer of "Dust Into Gold,"gave the audience a fantasticall ygruesome production. Mixed withBlack magic and humour this talelaid in a garret in twelfth centur ygave the three players, J . W. Plom-mer, Rosa Lort and Mary Reynolds ,an excellent opportunity for charac-ter acting.

Debunking history it may be, bu tas a play, "Elizabeth, the Queen," isone of the most powerful and tens edramas presented . Nor Is the effec tcarried out only in the spoken word sand acting itself, for a simple yetmost effective set gives to the wholethe atmosphere of grey dawn in theTower of London just before the ex-ecution of Lord Essex, lover of th eQueen . The role of Queen was playedby Joan Miller, one of the outstand- audience, was given by "A Chineseing amateur actresses, and playing i Fragment," the Forbes-Robertson pro-

duction placing second in the FestI -val . The difficulty arising from a nOccidental cast trying to interpret theOrient was for the most part sur-mounted by the cast . As daughter ofthe Mandarin, Noel Cusack gave aparticularly charming performance .Other members of the cast wer eGeorge Durham, A . McCorkindale ,Gertrude Partridge, and Roy Shad -

as sThis sort of thing naturally bring s

me back to the Players' Club, I amresolved to see if a little help before -hand will be any better than criticismafterwards .

I have for many years been an en-thusiastic partisan of this organiza-tion. This led to some satisfaction onmy part when I was informed thatthey were annoyed by my criticismof the Christmas plays, If this an-noyance made them determine to giv eno opportunity for such criticism ofthe Spring play, it will have donethem a service.

For a long time the Players' Clubhas been an asset to the University ,but of late It has slumped . If it cando Caesar and Cleopatra in manne requal to which It has presented prey

--®vlous Shaw plays, one of which, Pyg•mallon, I particularly remember asbeing a brilliant effort, it will hav eregained the ground which it haslost.

The particular point which I wishto draw to our Thespians' attention, uthat it is not the star parts whichshould engross their attenion, but thePetty details. Nothing so clearlymarks the difference between themediocre and the finished perform-ance as the correct and competenthandling of the minor Items, be theyof acting, of lighting, of scenery, ofaudience management, or most im-portent of all, of the "walk-on" and"mob" parts .

Let us hope that the next weekwill see these things attended to, Ifthey have not been already. And letthe Players' Club remember tha tnothing is "good enough" If it is no tperfect, and there will always besomething left that they can improve,right up to the time the curtain goesup. Also, let them remember that ,though "Caesar" and "Cleopatra" ma ybe responsible for the success of theplay, even the stage door-keeper maybe responsible for its failure.

Nothing would make me happieathan to find that the Players' ClubSpring Play furnishes no material forthe succeeding issue of "Sneers an dJeers."

English Ruggers WinKnockout Series By

Despite 'Punt and Pray' Tactics of Ex-Mage eStudents Get Touchdown in Dying

Minutes of Gam eThe Thunderbird ruggers are champions once more ! No -

body seems to be sure what they are champions of, but theywon the senior league knockout series last Saturday when the ydowned Ex-Magee by a 3-0 count, and covered themselves withglory. Glory is right. Playing against a fast, hard fighting Ex -Magee fifteen, who were assisted throughout the game by a nastigmatic and doddering referee who appeared to have a mini -mum affection for the collitch boys, they put on the best exhibi-tion of the English code that has been dished up for the delect ation of the fans this season.

Magee Have Edge In First Hal tMagee kicked off with the wind in ally in the scrum, and carrying th e

their favor, and then started an epic ball up the field time after time, onlystruggle that lasted all through the to be disappointed by the kicking o ffirst half, during most of which theThunderbirds were penned in thei rown territory, and put on a wonder-ful display of defensive rugby. Thefirst thrill came after several min-utes of very even play, when Apple-garth, of the Exes dribbled across Var -sity ' s line for what looked like a cer-tain score, but Ken Mercer, appearingfrom nowhere, made a spectaculardive that was more like a flight, an dlit on the ovoid to save successfuly .

Varsity Scrum Superior

The second half started with Ma-gee playing well into Varsity terra .tort', but a few minutes soon showedthe Blue and Gold to be superior i nall departments and they started adrive that kept their opponents on th edefensive for the rest of the game, ev-en though the Exes were allowed t oplay offside at will . When they hadpenetrated about to the thirty-yardline, the Thunderbirds were awarde da penalty, and tried for a field goal ,the ball striking the upright, andrebounding. The forwards then shovedthe ex-students up against their line ,and charged them again and again, atlast forcing their way through, onlyto have Magee save . The Redstart sdashed up the field in their last offen-sive burst, which was promptly nulli-fied by a counter attack, in which th eThunderbirds when over the lin,e butthe play was called back for somereason not visible to the spectator s

NanaimoDraws WithSr. SoccermenStudents Play Inter-city Team

In Exhibition

In one of the best exhibition tiltsseen on the Coal City grounds thisyear, Varsity Senior Soccermen playedNanaimo of the Intercity League to a4.4 draw last Sunday before an appre-ciative crowd, many of whom felt thaton the run of the play the Blue an dGold lads deserved a still better fate.

No scoring took place for the firs t20 minutes . Then Gray drove a hardlow shot from a good position whichstruck "Daisy" Waugh as it went in .Varsity fought back and forced corn-ers on both sides, but all to no avail .The Miners" halves and inside for-wards were combining beautifully a tthis stage, and when the right-hal fhoisted a pass over the backs' heads,the tricky "Daisy" dashed in and putthe sphere past Greenwood who neg-lected to run out.

McDougall Scores For VarsityWith five minutes left in the first

half Archie McDougall accepted a per -fect pass from the left and crashed theball by Inkster in Nanaimo's goal .Nanaimo led 2-1 at half-time .

Varsity appeared rejuvinated afte rthe breather and attacked resolutel yfrom the outset, the forwards were fastand the defense was clearing finely.A goal seemed inevitable and come i tdid when the left-winger was success -ful with a pile-driver . Varsity kept upthe pressure, only the fine work ofInkster between the post preventin gthem from adding to the score . Nan-aimo on the other hand, made but in -frequent sallies into the Students' halfof the field. On one of these, however ,Gray again found the net to put hi sside into the lead at 3-2.

Kozoolin Converts PenaltyAt the other end Captain Kozoolin

skied a pass from Hugh Smith, butIn the next moment converted a pen-alty kick given against one of th edefenders for unlawful charging there -by once more knotting the count .

Fifteen minutes from the end Mc -Dougall worked his way through theopposing fullbacks and scored with afine low drive which gave Inksterno chance . This put Varsity aheadat 4-3.

Waugh Scores AgainThe Islanders seemed rattled now,

but went to work despite the fact. Theywere rewarded with only a few min-utes remaining when Waugh heade din a ' spectacular goal on a pass fromhis right-winger . The home crowdwent wild and yelled for a fifth mark-er, but it was not forthcoming, an dthe game ended in nobody's favor .

For Varsity, all played well, wit hMillar McGill and Jock Waugh on thedefence, Bill Wolfe at centre-half andArchie McDougall on the attack, par-ticularly outstanding. Nanaimo werebest served by Inkster in goal, the in-termediate trio, and Waugh, on th eforward line . Matt Ginnis refereed .
