2 profs ask complete reconsiderationSociology professors Matthe w

Speier and Ron Silvers will no tparticipate in the anthropology -sociology department " spromotions and tenur ecommittee's plan to prepare a n"addendum" to their tenure cases ,the two announced Monday .

Instead the two profs calle dupon the committee "to reope nour cases for reconsideratio nimmediately and to remove theprocedural confusion that ha ssurrounded them thus far . "

Speier and Silvers werenarrowly recommended for tenureby the committee in October, bu tthe decision was undercut by

department head Cyril Belshaw' snegative report to arts dean Dou gKenny .

Since then students and junio rfaculty have urged the committe eto reconsider the cases, whil eBelshaw has maintaine dopposition to any new look at th edecision .

The issue overspille ddepartment boundaries last weekwhen the Canadian Association o fUniversity Teachers and the UB Cfaculty association grievanc ecommittee were both informall ycalled into the cases .

The P and T committeedecided Wednesday, in opposition

to Belshaw, to appoint newassessors for Speier and Silver sand, using the reassessments as abasis, to send an "addendum" t othe arts faculty P and Tcommittee . The move wasgenerally, interpreted by somemembers of the universitycommunity as amounting tovirtual reconsideration of thecases .

However over the weekend ,Speier and Silvers said they cam eto the conclusion, on the basis o fvarious Belshaw letters to them ,that the proposed addendu mwould be little more than awhitewash .

A series of memo exchanges

Friday and Saturday resulted inSpeier and Silvers' refusals to goalong with the P and T's plan .

"According to the head 'sletters of Nov. 26, the departmentP and T committee will notreopen our tenure cases, nor wil lthey perform a reconsideration o fthem," one Speier-Silvers mem osaid .

Heat's onin searchfor dean

The search committe eappointed to look for a new deanof medicine is meeting this wee kin a last-ditch effort to make achoice before the end o fDecember .

It is understood thepresidential committee hasnarrowed the field to fou rcontenders for the dean 's post ,which is being vacated by JohnMcCreary .

McCreary was name dco-ordinator of health sciences inearly August, following agovernment announcement thatmore than $60 million would b eallocated for the proposed UBChealth sciences complex .

Of the four contenders forMcCreary 's job, three are fro mout of town, and the other iscurrently on campus, TheUbyssey has learned .

So no more papers afte rThursday until Jan . 3 .

However the staff, for thebenefit of all its loyal friends andfoes and tween classes followers ,is having a party Thursday atnoon in the editorial office, SUB241K .

Members of student court andpersons involved in an actio ndisputing the validity of lastWednesday's AMS byelection swere to meet this morning todecide on when the court is toconvene .

Depending on the outcome ofthe meeting, the court coul dconvene later today to begin aninformal assessment of the charge sby a defeated AMS candidate o felection irregularities, and toexamine the constitutiona lrequirements for hearing the case .

If the court goes into ope nsession today, the time andlocation will be available fromstaff at the information desk i nthe SUB foyer.

Tom MacKinnon, elected onthe first count by 10 votes bu tdefeated in a recount Friday bythe same - margin, alleges tha tvoters were swayed by Students'Coalition members manning polls .

He is also charging that ballotsdisappeared between the first vot ecount Wednesday night and therecount.

"Two students were told bythose manning the SUB north pollto vote for the candidates i nalphabetical order, " MacKinno ntold The Ubyssey . "Of course ,(presidential candidate Grant)Burnyeat's name is first on the lis tand (candidate Til) Nawatzki' sname is last . "

(Burnyeat was the victoriou sStudents' Coalition candidate .The poll was manned by coalitio nmembers, including vice-presiden tDerek Swain and treasurer Davi dDick . )

MacKinnon said this i srepresentative of the conduct ofstudents manning this and othe rpolls during the presidential an dsecretarial elections .

"The students there had veste dinterests, being members of theStudents' Coalition," he said ."This disgusting practice isinexcusable to me . "

AMS ex-returning office rSandy Kass confirmed that 1 4ballots were missing at Friday'srecount in the secretarial election .

"The ballots were gone fro mthe box when we opened it againfor the recount," Kass said .

The recount had beenrequested by candidate HilaryPowell of the Students' Coalitio nslate after the original coun tshowed she lost to MacKinnon ,law 3, by 10 votes .

Powell won in the recountafter she gained 10 vote slegitimately, Kass said .

"If all the ballots had bee nthere, this 10-vote gain woul donly have meant that the electio nwas a tie - not that Powell hadwon," she said .

Kass said the returns sheet wa s

Apparently some people are .

A meeting at noon Thursdaysponsored by the educationstudents association attracted 6 0concerned students .

Education student Dave Annaloutlined the meeting's objectives .

"We would like to identify and

checked and 14 votes were no taccounted for from the SUB 1poll, 12 of which should hav ebeen for MacKinnon and two fo rPowell according to the previou scount .

"If these votes were added t othe candidates' totals as the yappeared in the recount, then th eelection would have been a tie, a s

structure student complaint sregarding the education faculty' sprograms," Annal said .

Education students, many justreturned from practice teaching ,cited a lack of methods course sand the shortness of practicums asfocal points of complaint .

Dean Neville Scatfe, whoattended with two othe reducation professors, answeredmany complaints .

Yes, said Scarfe, two-wee kpracticums are too short .

our previous figures suggested, "she said .

An action launched bypresidential candidate Ti lNawatzki, law 3, on the sam egrounds as MacKinnon's has bee nabandoned .

In a letter to Garrod, Nawatzkisaid he would be "an arsehole" t oinsist on invalidating the election .

"I would prefer to see afour-week period," he said .

Replying to a question on thelack of methods courses, Scarfeoutlined his own philosophy .

"Methods courses are the cru xof teacher education aroundwhich other courses shouldrevolve and draw from," Scarfesaid .

To combat growing complaint sabout the length of practicumsand the lack of methods courses

"Upon doing a bit of thinking ,I have come to the conclusio nthat having the student cour tconsider the matter would be awaste of time . . . (because) havin gknown Grant Burnyeat for som etime I can confidently say hewould not himself resort to frau dmerely to win an election of thi ssort .

As a result of the complaints inone fifth year transfer class, astudent-faculty steeringcommittee has been set up to heargrievances, generate ideas, an drecommend curriculum changes .

Students interested in workingwith the committee shoul dcontact Laing in education roomone .

Burnyeat said Monday he plansto try and get the student court todeclare itself biased and unable t odecide on the question presente dby MacKinnon .

Burnyeat said the reason h econsiders the court to be biased i sbecause they were all picked b yNawatzki in his official position a spresident of the la wundergraduate society .

Powell's representative wouldhave to present a motion to thebench asking them to declarethemselves unable to ruleeffectively on the motion becauseof bias .

"There is little likelihood o fthem doing this - it has noprecedent in UBC history,"MacKinnon said .

He said he does intend t oresign his seat before the actioncomes before the bench .

Since Nawatzki has withdrawnhis action, Burnyeat plans to takeoffice Wednesday .

The possibility of theSpeier-Silvers academic recordsbeing compared to the records o fother candidates is thu sconsiderably lessened .

Among his most recent memo sBelshaw issued one denying "thepossibility that I am thinkingseriously of resignation . "

Belshaw told members of thedepartment : "It would be utterirresponsibility on my part t oeven contemplate resignationwhen the department is face dwith malignant attacks from th eoutsid e

"A time of crisis and concern i sa time to see the department

through to more creative an dhappier activities . "

Beishaw claimed : "Remark sthat I may have made about byintentions and concerns have beeninterpreted with utter naivety ."

The remarks Belshaw referre dto are contained in a statement hemade to faculty in mid-November .

At that time Belshaw said : "I thas been my wish and the wish o fthis department that the headshipshould be for a five-year term atthe end of which there is anexamination of continuation ornon-continuation .

"It has been my intention t ooffer my resignation to the deanin December, and I will still try todo this although it has been mademore difficult by all the pressure sand politics lately ."

THE

UBYSSEY

Tuesday, November 30, 197 1

For as long as anyone we've ever met ca nremember, The Ubyssey has been evil .

We've been absolutely unrivalled on the UB Ccampus when it comes to cultivated debauchery .

Liberal politicians, moral re-armament types ,parents and the Women's Christian TemperanceUnion have been unanimous in thei rcondemnation of the educated degenerates whosehome has moved from the old auditoriu mthrough the Brock basement to its present litteredlocale in the northeast corner of SUB.

It will come as no shock to most that werevel in the slimelight of sin . We frolic atop th efestering footlights of fornication, delight in ou rown peculiar brand of depravity .

But, as someone remarked a few days ago ,this is 1971 . Almost, it follows, 1972 .

Times are changing . The new replace the old ,and long-cherished traditions are vanishing beforeour very eyes .

The Ubyssey had decided that it, too, mustchange. For too long have we languished in ou rwretched state of wickedness and perversion ,thinking only of our own uncontrollable desires .

SqualorFor too long have we staged our ow n

exclusive snobbish orgies, where passionate ,nubile young bodies writhe in ecstasy an ddrunken minds create literary history .

And for too long have our brains allowedthemselves to turn inward under the influence o fmind-altering drugs, taken in order to forget ourchequered and sordid past and the bleak futur ethat lies before us .

No, times are changing . And with them Th eUbyssey .

Our exclusivity, our snobbishness, ou rivory-tower mentality are things of the past . Nolonger will we continue our futile attempt to hol don to something so base and vile that only themost daring and outspoken pioneers of th epsychosexual revolution would presume toespouse it .

And so it is with trepidation, but a svisionaries of the future, that we publish on pag e1 of today's commie house organ the answer t oevery voyeur's dream : an open invitation to tha tmost repugnant of Ubyssey rituals, the party .

We have decided that the lust and degenerac ywhich set our twisted minds on their devian tpaths are too good to keep to ourselves .

It has occurred to us that deep down — nay ,perhaps even close to the surface — there lurks aUbyssey staffer in every agglomeration of min dand matter that daily stalks the soggy Point Greycampus. We have also come to realize that therelies within us more filth and degredation than wecould ever hope to express by ourselves .

As the proprieters of this surplus socia lgangrene, we are sharing the squalor of ou rhabitat with all and sundry Thursday noon .

If you want free refreshments (heh heh) an da guaranteed shit-kicking pre-exam bash ,complete with real live Ubyssey staffers, come t oSUB 241-K any time from noon on .

Governor Les Bewley might even be there .

In the issue of Friday, Nov . 26 ,you ran an item asking fo rvolunteers to canvass for th eChildren's Aid Society ofVancouver Christmas Fund . I alsoplaced an ad in the Classifie dsection requesting the same .

The campaign was to run fromDec . 1 to Dec . 8, as I promise dLorna Kirkham of Children's Aid .However, my problem is

that not one person responded t omy plea — not one phone call .What is wrong with the studentsof this campus? The lack ofresponse didn't shock me as muc has it depressed me .

How do I tell 700 children tha tnot one of 20,000 mature,well-to-do students wanted tovolunteer their help so that thoseless fortunate than they coul denjoy Christmas? I just don'tknow .

Lettersone planning student 's opinion i sready to debase an entire field o fstudy .

I'm not a lycanthropist, nor, Ibelieve, is David Lee . The latter i sof course a prime example o fnaivete and narrow-mindedness ,which puts him in a class with theTom Campbells and the PhilGaglardis . These persons evade thereal issues and attack institutionswhich are always vulnerable .

Skagit is worth saving for it sown sake .

God help us though if there ar emore David Lees in the world !

Henry Ropertz ,Chairman ,

Planning Students' Association ;

ConsumeYes, once again it's nearly

December and you are beseechedby the legend of Santa Claus, thatcheery old man, to do unt oothers . The season is upon us tobe jolly and to celebrate our longand arduous struggle from Da yOne, and once again we shall allgo out to the stores and play ou rvital

roles

as consumers ,ostensibly

in the

name ofChristmas .

And

it's

true, actually, tha tChristmas

time

is a period forconsumption

of goods andservices like

none other in theyear.

For one, let's say, the chance sare that most of us will consume alot more and different kinds o ffood than we usually do . F is for

fat 'which is what you'll add on .Visions of sugar plums andchestnuts roasting on an open fir eare really just visions revived, an dwho could forget tha tscrumptious Christmas dinner las tyear and the ticklish sensations ofthe effervescent Bromo-Seltzerwhich followed it .

U stands for unsettled, which iswhat your stomach was .

Then, too, perhaps there are afew former residents of Plac eVanier around who will fondlyreminisce the vicious maladie sthat followed Christmas dinner in1968 . Even Food Services' RuthBlair must still chuckle at thethought of the dramatic foodpoisoning that eventful eveningwhich sent dozens of student sreeling to the toilets, flashing al lthe way .

And then there are tickets, th ekind many of us will be buying onsnowy mountain tops for the useof brightly colored chairlifts an dglove-reducing rope tows . Fewwill contest that skiing is aconsumer sport — if you eve rwant to turn someone off onwinter skiing, just tell them howmuch they can expect to spend o nwarmth alone .

C is for choked up, which i swhat they'll be .

But in terms of consumptio nof goods, skiing is strictly for girls .A matron was once heard t oadmonish the weaker sex : "Takecare of your body, girls, it's themost important part of yourcapital ." True, matron, but it will

have to look good first befor eanyone will care to peruse it, an dthat means the proper clothing .

On the slopes my dear that' sfashionable snug sweaters and thetightest ski pants — you migh teven meet one of those handsome ,weather-beaten ski instructors i nthe apres lounge .

K is for knocked-out, which i show you'll want him to b eimpressed .

And then there are colds, th ekind of consumption most of u stend to go into once a year . E i sfor emasculated, which is ho wthey make many of us feel . Bestof all, however, is liquor — an dGod knows, we'll probably al lconsume plenty of that .

D is for drunk, which tends tobe the case .

So what do you have when it' stime to welcome in the New Yea rand you list your consumptions ?Well, add it up :

The following opinion piece was written bya second-year engineering student who is amember of the staff of The Ubyssey .

By CONRAD WINKELMA NRecent events on campus indicate that th e

nature of engineers and engineering stuntsneed some clarification .

The prime function of engineering stunts i sto bring out the characteristic that makes theengineers a distinct group .

If a group is not unique it will diffuse intothe rest of the society and form part of aconglomerate of people that have no commongoals . In this respect, engineering stunts are, inprinciple, identification marks of th eengineering student body .

The Nov. 18 beard-shaving escapade in th eSUB cafeteria was a stunt and as such i tdeserves no special attention . However, thereaction in the letters section of The Ubysse yreveals the bad image the engineers have onaccount of their hell-raising behavior . Thisimage must be changed .

In the Nov . 19 Ubyssey it was reporte dthat there was a rumor that the victims of thestunt were stooges, planted for the occasion .Indeed they were . But I gather that this wa snot at all clear to many students .

First of all, the denial by engineeringundergraduate society president DougAldridge that the victims were planted tende dto drag all engineers through the mud an dlabel them as .unscrupulous liars . There aremore than 1,000 on campus but only between50 and 75 took part in the stunt . It is notcorrect to assume that all engineers endorse dDoug's denial . Most of us would rather speak

_the truth .Had Doug not been confronted with the

stooge question there would have been n oreason to tell the truth at once. The stuntwould have been funny and harmless . Whenfaced with the question however, Doug shoul dhave told the truth and explained thesignificance behind the beard-shaving

ceremony. He would have gained som erespect, not only from the engineers but als ofrom other students .

Although Doug did not lose his beard tha tday, he did lose face by failing to represen tthe engineers in an honorable way . Thi sfailure is a weakness in his leadership . DougAldridge should be condemned for hisstatement that the stunt was not a set-up ,first, because it is a lie, second, because it doe snothing to improve the bad image theengineers already have .

Who the hell are the engineers anyway ?Each one is himself. As a human being he i s

unique, meaning that his guts are not like atransmission and his head is not like a clock .Without his red jacket he might be taken for alaw-man, or even a poet .

In his group of fellow students he talk sabout celestial mechanics, bending moments ,force-fields, and only god knows how man ycoefficients . When he dons his red jacket hedoes not lose his identity but only tells th eworld about his occupationsl goals .

Some charge engineers are perverted .Others say they are immature .

If this is so, engineering objectives are n omore the cause of it than the mechanics o fballistic missiles were the cause of the Cubanmissile crisis .

The cause must be in the fact tha tengineers are not immune to the ills of thesociety just because they are a part of it .

The letters to The Ubyssey about the stuntare cause for concern .

They expose deep antagonistic feeling stowards the engineers that are not full yjustified . -They indicate that all engineers ar ejudged by the irresponsible actions of a few .This is to be expected, since only those wh ocreate a disturbance are remembered . Thesilent majority is usually not known .

The letter Humor is disturbing indeed, no tbecause it attacks the engineers but because

the writer draws a parallet between the Nazisin pre-war Germany and the engineers oncampus . This parallel in itself is perhapslegitimate but the writer, whoever he is ,proceeds to question the courage of rabblerousers while hiding in anonymity of "Namewithheld" .

The writer's own courage is far fromsublime ; nevertheless, it provides food fo rthought . The very reason why the Nazis inGermany were able to stay in power and brin gupon the world the horrors of the Secon dWorld War was that the German people wh oopposed the Nazis were hiding .

They did not openly reject and opposeNazi oppression and therefore it continued .They spared themselves physical harm but inits place they put much responsibility for th eslaughter that followed . Their physica lwell-being was paramount .

Although it might convey scorn to criticiz ethe writer's fear of his physical well-being, i tdoes not . His fears are understandable .

In the past the engineers have carried ou treprisals that showed irresponsibility and hate .Not to mention bad taste . Nevertheless, th ecriticism is justified because anonymousopposition to a lurking danger is as effectiv eas no opposition at all .

Finally, if any student is concerned aboutour behavior he or she should not hide inanonymity because if we get out of hand an dbecome a real threat there will be no way toorganize opposition against us . Then, when itis too late, you will be plagued by a guil tcomplex because you did nothing to stop th eevil you feared .

Therefore, if it is our contention that w ewish to live in a democratic society that, i nprinciple, grants us the right to express ou ropinion against, and organize opposition t othose elements within the society that tend t odominate and bully us, then we must no tforfeit the foundation of our freedom byhiding in anonymity of "Name withheld" .

Sorting mailpushing saridriving had

By VAUGHN NELSONA number of students will walk from exams to

part-time jobs at the post office, restaurants ,supermarkets and other places this Christmas .

Others won't .Many who have been working part-time throughou t

the year will continue to work during the holidays .Others will be registering with Canada Manpowe r

and the UBC placement office for any work they canget .

"About 300 students will work at the post offic eover the Christmas holidays," says UBC placementofficer Cameron Craik .

He says he does not believe the need for money t obe critical .

"The money a student earns over the holidays is no tgoing to make a hell of a lot of difference over whethe rhe stays in university or not, " says Craik .

"If students are seeking jobs to purchase luxurie sthey will probably find it more convenient to d owithout the luxuries . "

He says he did not know the number of wome napplicants .

"People assume that when you separate people b ysex statistically, you separate them when you placethem," he says .

Craik says the post office usually gives the heavylifting jobs to men and lighter work to women and tha tmost women prefer not to work on the night shift .

"We are in the process of registering students wh odo not have exams, " he says . "We will register otherswhen they can tell us the date of their last examination .

"I would advise people desiring work outsideVancouver to check into the Manpower office or else g odirect to the post office as soon as they arrive . "

Manpower counsellor Charlie Todd, in charge o fChristmas hiring for the post office, says 6,000applicants have registered .

He says 4,000 will be hired early in the season bu tthat this number can increase .

"It depends on the volume of mail '.will receive this year," says Todd .

"We do not ask applicants to state til tbut a healthy percentage of them look lik e

Although a large number of applicatiaccepted it is still not too late for student(job .

"A student should register with the ioffice rather than register with us," say sshe has a better chance of getting . cuniversity . "

"We make no distinction between se"No previous experience is required . "

"Many summer students working at the White Spotcontinue to work on the weekends during theirChristmas holidays . "

B Iruce Hawkshaw of Canada Safeway Ltd . says : "A tChristmas we don ' t get a rush for employment since wehire a large number of students throughout the year .

"Students, not having classes and needing money ,want to work the extra hours, " says Hawkshaw .

Safeway also has a relief staff employed full-time .Because most holidays are taken during the summer ,

the relief staff is available to handle much of the extrawork .

"We like to hire students during the year and giv ethem work when they need it most, such as during th esummer, at Christmas, and at mid-term breaks .

"If they help us when we need them then we try t ohelp them whenever we can . "

Applicants ask for work as meat cutters, cashiers ,and food clerks .

Students wishing to drive taxis must have a "B"licence which may take three to six weeks to obtain .

A spokesman for Yellow Cab Ltd . says it alway suses students through the summer and through theChristmas holidays .

However this early in the month they have a longlist of spare drivers waiting for work .

Students seeking more glamorous work at ski resort searn little money .

The ski patrol is usually a volunteer service an dski instructors work on a casual basis if they ar eunwilling to endure the entire holiday period .

Who-you-know and what-you-know are the rules .The last two weeks of December do not seem to be

the best time to seek employment because mostshopping is done before then . For those in need ofmoney, however, work can still be found .

"In the past some students have asked for work o nChristmas Eve or Christmas Day," says Craik . "If w ewere lucky we may have found them a bartenders' job a ta party . "

So far no one has applied for a job as Santa Claus .

Goyer gumshoe exposed by Halifax lef tHALIFAX (CUP) — Solicito r

general Jean Goyer 's securityservices department was hard atwork here when one of its agentswas recently found out .

Dave MacKinnon, a well- ,known figure in left-wing circles ,was exposed recently as aconscious paid department agent .He was a member of the New

Morning Collective, one of theorganizations Goyer said _ thedepartment would investigate .

MacKinnon started working fo rthe security and intelligencebranch of the RCMP in June ,1971 . At that time, the centra lstaff of New Morning in Halifax ,and leaders of the VancouverPartisan Party and Red Morning in

Toronto, knew of his actions .He was operating as a double

agent, giving only generalinformation on the left to thedepartment and collectinginformation about the securityforce for future use by the left ,New Morning claimed .

Because of his activities, th eNew Morning concluded that

MacKinnon is either a consciouspolice agent, or is so "screwe dup" that he must be treated as aspy .

One example the group citedwas a leftist Halifax newspaper ,the Eastern Front, whic hMacKinnon allegedly instigated .The small group of staffers wa sresponsible recently for throwing

a molotov cocktail into a Halifaxfederal office building .

New Morning denounced th eact and the group as adventuristic .

As a result of MacKinnon' sactions, New Morning issued astatement urging that "the left i nCanada do not deal wit hMacKinnon as he cannot b etrusted ."

UNORGANIZED EMPLOYEES AR EDISCRIMINATED AGAINST !

The Ubyssey — October 14, 197 1

UBC Personnel Director Colonel McLean tol dthe Ubyssey that grievances are first handled

by an employee's immediate superior .If an agreement is not reached at this stage, h esaid, the dispute goes up the universitybureaucracy until it reaches the departmenthead and McLean for a final joint settlement .

The University of British Columbia has prepared job descriptions withcorresponding pay grades . Following are some examples and comparisons :

UBC — CLERK I, CLERK-TYPIST, SWITCHBOARD OPERATO RPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS : High school graduation plus business

training, some knowledge of procedures gained through at least one year offic eexperience . On jobs where typing is required, a minimum of 50 w .p .m . — salary :$301 to $358 .A DISHWASHER (NO PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE) IN THE B .C . GOVERNMENTSERVICE IS PAID $490 A MONTH .

UBC — SECRETARY II, STENOGRAPHER II, DEPARTMENT SECRETAR YPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS : High school graduation plus business

training, ability to type at 60 w.p.m ., and to take and transcribe shorthand at 11 0w .p.m . Four years experience at the University or its equivalent — salary : $401-$495 .A CLEANER (NO PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE) IN THE B .C . GOVERNMEN TSERVICE IS PAID $490 TO $533 A MONTH .

OFFICE, CLERICAL AND TECHNICAL EMPLOYEES ARE ABLE T ONEGOTIATE IMPROVED SALARIES WHEN THEY BELONG TO A UNION .Following are examples of U .B .C . salaries compared to the rates of pay enjoyed b ymembers of our Union :

WITHOUT A UNION — THE EMPLOYER MAKES ALL OF TH EDECISIONS — WITH A UNION — YOU HAVE AN EFFECTIVE VOIC EIN ALL MATTERS CONCERNING YOUR WORKING CONDITIONS! I FYOU CAN'T AGREE THE GRIEVANCE IS SETTLED THROUGH TH EPROCESS OF ARBITRATION .

While it is not practical to cornpare all th ejob categories in this ad, it is obvious that U .B .C . salaries are substantially lower thanthose paid to the members of our Union .

"GO RIGHT through those double doors, turn left, and its the first door on the right marked M-E-N," th ereferee seems to say to UBC's Laurie Vanzella during Saturday's game . UBC lost 5-4 to the University o fCalgary Dinosaurs in a game that left a lot to be desired of the referee .

Dinosaurs stomp on Saturda yThe UBC Thunderbird hockey

team split a pair of weekendgames .

Friday night they whacked theUniversity of Calgary Dinosaurs5-3, and Saturday they werepulled down 5-4 .

On Friday 'Bird winger DougBuchanon. lost a contact lens butsurvived long enough to dead-eyehis way to two goals, the secon don a 40-foot slap-shot, unassisted .

Richard Longpre, Bil lCartwright and Chuck Carigina nalso scored for the 'Birds .

"I never really had the feelingthat they would beat us," sai d'Bird coach Bob Hindmarch afte rFriday 's game. "I always though twe had enough bench strength t ocome back . "

I .Q. of 60Just a few words in comment

to the letter to the sports sectionof Friday's Nov. 26 (to be foundon page 15 of that edition) . Weare fortunate on this campus t ohave access to a media such as Th eUbyssey allowing us, as students ,the opportunity to voice ou ropinions and grievances so tha t"the wrong may be righted" etc .In our day to day experiences ,situations are, bound to arise thatwe judge as being unfair and, as aresult, are a source of annoyanceto us .

Therefore when Misses Hellwig,McKinnon and Field, three girl sfrom PE, "made public" th eremodelling problem in th echanging room of the main gyrothey were taking good advantag eof their rights, voicing a vali dcomplaint .

It is unfortunate, however, thattheir command over the Englishlanguage reveals an I .Q . of about60. How can they expect to betaken seriously by anyone o fauthority when they address thei rremarks to "The Fucking PE

▪ Department?" Phrases such as thi sare great in informal groups or on

Not so Saturday . TheDinosaurs returned to life an dspilled the 'Birds in a upset win .

The Dinnies outshot the ' Birds16-14 in the first period an demerged with a 1-0 lead . IanWilkie's superb goaltending kep tthe score close .

The 'Birds fought back in th esecond with two goals by Bo bMcAneeley and Longpre, an dentered the third period with a2-2 tie .

Early in the third Calgar yjumped to a 4-2 lead on goals b yWayne Forsey and Howi eColborne . Colborne 's goal cam ewhen a 'Bird defenceman wascaught up ice and Calgary wa schanging lines.

a football field . But in attemptingto say something worthwhile I'mafraid the girls have been caugh tup in a fad that is even losin gpopularity with the "lunch bucketgang" they downgrade, and as aresult have said nothing at all .

Hugh Greer Ed 4Gary Poole Arts 4

GrossAssuming your letter wasn't a

put on, we feel'its contents left alot to be desired, as it has to rateas one of the more gross efforts ofthe year .

Your dissatisfaction seemed t ostem from two sources ; first, yourinability to shower due to theremodelling of the locker room ,and second, "the stupid broads inthe PE office . "

Not being ones who patronizeyour locker room on a regula rbasis we are not really qualified t odispute your claim, but we d oconcede you have a legitimatebeef.

As for the women in the PEoffice, the efficiency with whichthey perform their job is a matte rof personal opinion . We havefound them to be quite helpful

Tom Wiseman jumped off th eCalgary bench much to th esurprise of the 'Birds, the ngrabbed the puck and skate dstraight up the wing drawing 'Bir ddefenceman Steve Fera and Wilki eover . He passed it out front t oColborne who scored .

With nine minutes left, Calgaryforward Frank Richardson waspenalized for high sticking.

But the 'Bird power playmisfired and two minutes late rRichardson jumped out of thepenalty box and beat Wilkie t ogive Calgary a three goal lead .

Hindmarch said silly mentalerrors and penalties in the thir dperiod hurt his team .

and cooperative in the four year swe have dealt with them .

At any rate, you are not theonly ones being inconvenienced ,as there are many of us that havelectures above the locker roomand the resulting constructio nnoise is annoying to student an dfaculty alike .

We feel your form of protestwas in very poor taste and doe snot reflect the general attitude o fthe majority of PE students .Nevertheless, you have done yourbest to drag the school of PEthrough the mud, enhancing thejockette' stereotype that we havebeen trying to repudiate .

Body odorIn reference to the articulate ,

cleverly-contrived letter to theeditor of Misses Hellwig ,McKinnon, and Field tha tappeared in the Nov . 26 issue : it i sencouraging to discover thre efemale PE undergraduates who areconcerned about their body odor .

UBC Braves and Meraloma s2nd played to a 0-0 drawSaturday on a field with 6 inc hdeep mud holes. The 'Birds firs tdivision match was cancelle dbecause of an administrativ emisunderstanding .

Saturday's rain, mud and heav yball resulted in many handlingerrors and missed tackles in theBraves ' game. However, to thecredit of both teams, there werenumerous good scrum and bac krushes .

Hard tackling and aggressiv eplay, by both scrums, especiall ywithin their own 25, highlighte dthe game .

Excessive enthusiasm resulte din Brian Coomer and two Loma sbeing evicted from the game .

With a man advantage an dnumerous hooks against the hea dby Warwick Harivel, the Brave scarried the play to the Loma sduring much of the second half .Only spirited hitting, by theforwards especially, salvaged a tiefor the outnumbered Meralomas .

In other games, Lomas downe dTotems 12-3 and the Froshdefeated the University o fVictoria 3-0.

This Saturday at Swangar dStadium, an international matchfeatures B .C. against Australia .Game time is 2 p .m .

The score was not indicative o fthe play . "It was like trying t ostop a buzz saw with your barehand," Ruby said after his win .

The fans were duly impressedby the match . "You know,perhaps intramurals isn't for thebirds after all," one was heard tomutter.

The young unemployed

Patchwork programswon't solve the problem

By IAN WISEMANCanadian University Pres s

There are reasons for yout hunemployment . And th egovernment is going to have t oface up to them before it is to o

late . Because, as Mel Watkins says ,when middle clas suniversity-educated student scannot find work, all hell is goin gto break loose .

These reasons are connectedfully to the basic definitions o funiversity education andunemployment. When NorthAmerican society continues onthe basis of four-years-of-liberal-education-for-everyone and the nthrows unskilled graduates int othe labor force to sell their labor ,then there are going to b eproblems whenever the economi csituation is below normal .

There are too many collegedegrees on the job market today :everyone wants to be anintellectual and nobody wants t obe a worker . Over the past tenyears, enrolment in Canadianuniversities doubled to about299,000 but this increase in th elevel of education has not resulte din full employment and bette rjobs for grads .

Quite the opposite, in 196 9when a record 66,000 degreeswere issued, the total number o fgraduates hired actually declined ,especially among graduates fro mthe arts .

Why are Canadian graduate sunemployable? The answer to thi sis again to be found in a noverview of our nationaleconomics . Lack of research cutsdown on the employmen tpotential of industry . MostCanadian industries are no more

the heavy influx of foreignprofessors keep research an dteaching positions few and fa rbetween .

And with a university degree ,particularly on the masters o rdoctoral level, the job marke tlooks pretty gloomy when thereare no opportunities for teachin gand research .

There are also reasons whyyoung people without degrees d onot get jobs . Other than theyoung workers themselves bein gchoosy about jobs (after all, theyusually don't have families tosupport), workers under 25 d onot have any seniority rights inindustry and they are rarelyunionized .

So they tend to get hired fo rshort term work, by constructio nfirms or by companies withunpredictable seasona lfluctuations ; and in times ofrecession they are the first to b elaid off .

jobs through the Manpowe rCentres.

Unless students have attende da polytechnical institute or avocational school, they find i talmost impossible to benefit fromapprenticeship programs, trainingin industry, or the government ' sOccupational Training for Adult s(OTA) program .

Let's consider the OT Aprogram first . The program, set upin 1967, is a combine d

educational-industrial package ,funded by federal and provincialgovernments, that include sacademic upgrading and technicaltraining . The problem for youth ?To qualify for the trainingallowance, applicants must havebeen in the labor force for thre eyears . Very few universitydropouts can claim thi sexperience .

Apprenticeship programs offe ran equally dismal outlook .Applicants for these programs areselected and certified byprovincial labor departments an din order to qualify they mustalready be employed. Oh, comenow, if a young worker alreadyhas a job in these times ofunemployment, then retraininghim is not going to offe remployment to those who need it .Why not offer apprenticeshipprograms to unskilled an dunemployed youth ?

The third scheme is training i nindustry . Under this program, the

federal government contracts withprivate employers to hire trainee sor retrain employees. Theemployer chooses the candidate sand the federal government pay sthe cost . Unfortunately thi sscheme sees more old employee sgetting retrained than newworkers getting hired and trained .

So, all in all, there isn't muchhope for potential workers with afull or partial universityeducation . And government

employment schemes an deconomic policies are primarily toblame for this crisis .

C an Trudeau ' s ne winterdepartmental study group ge tto the roots of this problem? Le t ' stake a quick look at their initia lproposals :

They hope to offer incentive sto industry to provide on-the-jobtraining and to make changes inthe rules on manpower training to

allow young people to enrol in th eprograms . This proposal, if carriedout, would be welcomed by mos tunemployed youth .

They hope to create loca lconstruction projects along thelines of the now-abandoned"winter works projects", and se tup a loan fund to financeprovincial construction schemes .again, this would be animpermanent solution - whathappens to the non-unionizedyoung workers who have noseniority rights after theconstruction boom is over ?

They have given no indicationthat the utilitarian function of th euniversity (versus the utilitarianfunction of the technical o rvocational college) will beconsidered.

And they still insist that youthunemployment is an isolatedproblem, not connected with th enational and internationaleconomic picture .

The study group's report, duein late October, will, if adopted asfederal legislation, only provide

The problem, Mr . Trudeau, isonly going to be solved when wetake a long, serious re-assessmen tof Canadian economics andeducation . But that solution willbe a long time in coming, becauseit runs against the grain ofentire reformist typ egovernment that Canadatoday .
