ALLAN GRAVES - UBC Staff Reporter

A sell-out crowd of over 2,500 watched the featured King'aIV take the campus by storm at the Pep Rally yesterday .

The crowd, packed around the Armouries stage, standingon the floor and on tables, kept the act on for several encores.Hlow they ever managed to keep up their pace is a mystery,but they did, and the" result was a good hour of solid, excitingentertainment .

Anyone who missed this four-some, -which is actually a five -some, (so?) can catch them allthis weekend at Isy's Suppe rClub .

The first hour of the Pep Mee twas taken up with the presenta-tion of the Homecoming Queencandidates and of the footbal lteam, with added entertainmentoffered by the Cheerleaders(amid surreptitious remarks like"take it off!"), the Booster Band,led by Mr. Delamont, and Pro-fessor A. Cox, folk-singer an dguitarist .

Apart from the occasional col-lapse of an overloaded table, an-nounced by shouts and screams ,followed by a sympathetic mur-mur from the crowd, everythingwent off well .

It is to be hoped that Satur-day's game is as successful .

The Pep Rally heralds the ap-proach of the Homecoming danc eFriday and Saturday.

The Homecoming Committeereports a sellout of tickets fo r

The real problem, however, isnot the formal, written, restric-tive provisions in constitutions ,but the actual pernicious under-standings and agreements whichexist between the fraternitie sand sororities on this campu sand their international organiza-tions .

UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTSFor example, it is a well-

known fact -that many sororitiesat UBC do not possess discrimi-natory clatides in their constitu-tions . However, evidence thatseveral of these' sororities havetacit understandings with theirinternational organizations t ocontinue race discrimination wa sprovided very recently at th eUniversity of Toronto .

CLAUSES OMITTE DThus, there are still many so-

rorities and fraternities tha tpractice racial discriminationeven though they have in formeryears eliminated the discrimina-tory clauses from their constitu-tions .

Some. students on campus be-lieve that the only way to en dracial discrimination is to rid

UBC of the Greek letter socie-ties . The Civil Liberties Unio ncannot concur with this view -point as it believes the fraterni-ties and sororities should gra bthe initiative and take furthersteps themselves toward the eli-mination of race discrimination.

REMOVAL AND ADVANC EIt would certainly be an ad-

vance if Alpha Tau Omega andSigma Chi removed the dis-criminatory clauses from theircherished constitutions . But tha twould only be a start . Membersof all the Greek letter societiesshould, and must, carry the anti -discrimination fight beyond thisconstitutional level !

Greek Society 'Discriminative

A statement issued today by the UBC Civil Liberties Unioncharged that certain Greek letter organizations on UBC 's cam-pus have discriminatory agreements with their parent bodies .

These so-called "gentlement's agreements" have been cre-ated to keep students put of their organizations on the basisof race or creed. The CLU charge reads :

Racial discrimination still ex-ists at UBC! Hidden in the secretconstitutions of some UBC fra-ternities, namely Alpha TauOmega, and Sigma Chi, areclauses which definitely needairing . These clauses deal with ,and even calmly endorse, racia ldiscrimination .

Senior Editor : Farida Sewel l

Students and other persons driving on the campus and inthe university area generally, are getting a very hard deal fro mthe law .

- All driving offences committed in the university fall di-rectly under the provisions of the Provincial Highways Act .This statute lays down the rules for governing conduct on thepiliavince's highways in the absence of any local regulations .Pe mple driving in municipalities and cities in the province ar esaved from the full operation of the statute by their local coun-cil'-s by-laws and supplementing authority . ,But there is n osuch intervention for residents and students in the Universityarea, and a hardship results .

It doesn ' t take a close study of this Act to see that it wasnever intended to apply to the day needs of a bustling coxn-ml4tiity of some 15,000 persons . One example only should besufficient to illustrate the point . The minimum fine which ca n

be imposed for a charge brought under the Act is $10 .

Neither police nor magistrate have any discretion in the

matter of lowering the fine for any offence no matter ho w

trivial . A rough sort of equity has been effected in the pastthrough the intervention of the RCMP as an intelligent an d

sympathetic policing authority. More than one student has

thanked his lucky stars that he came into the hands of th e

RCMP rather than some more zealous arm of the law . We do

not-mean lo imply in the least that the University contingen t

has been in any way derelict in its duty, but the officers, real-izing- the strictness of the fines have exercised a sort of dis-eretion of their own .

That is why it is particularly distressing for us to hear -ofa recent decision of His Worship M . B. Ferguson to crack downon students stopping on University Blvd. to pick up hiteh-hikers . The fine had been set in the past at $10 as with allother offences, but convictions were practically unknown . Nowfor some reason, His Worship has decided to set the fine a t$2e.; and to enforce the letter of the law.

With the utmost respect for the learned Magistrate wesuggest that this move is misguided. Whatever the - needs formoving huge streams of traffic on provincial arterial high-ways, they don ' t apply to University Blvd .

Hundreds of students staggered by the fee-hike this yearand the increased cost of off-campus housing literally have n oother practical means of getting to and from the campus . Noone could consider it .ennobling to throw oneself on the merc yand charitable instincts of others . Presumably the majority ofhite'h-hikers lining University Blvd. legitimately need, help . sit a legitimate function -of the University area law-enforcingauthority to fine their would-be benefactors ?

As there are no means open to us to change the law, shortof storming Victoria again, we are totally dependent upon th epolice and the magistrates to apply the existing law wisely withclose regard to the particular context .

We would rather see traffic blocked from Westbrook t o-the President's front̀ lawn than have that sopping bedraggledline of hitch-hikers left on the curb . . . or student driversnicked- $20 for trying to give a classmate a hand .

Can't we have a re-appraisal of his move with more sym-pathetic attention being paid to the actual needs of the campus ?

LETTERS- TO-THE EDITO RSchopenhaue r

The Editor,The Ubyssey .

-Dear Sir :

In connection with Mr .Ralph Henderson's letter ofNovember 3, let me make sug-gestion to students who studywith a background of rock 'n 'roll (music?) . You are ableto do this, not because of rock

LETTER S

Open Lette rDr. N. A . M. MacKenzie,President ,University of British Columbia ,Vancouver 8, B .C .Dear Mr . MacKenzie :

As I mentioned to you las tnight, I intended to write tobring to your attention a situa-tion which I consider is deplor-able . That is the way the stu-dents, after having been givenadequate parking facilities, d onot consider it worth thei rwhile to kee p them clean andtidy, as would be befitting t otheir association with the Uni-versity, and the efforts that ar ebeing made to make it an out-standing one in every way .

The situation may not be sonoticeable on week-days whe nthe parking areas are full o fcars, but after Universityhours, or, on week-ends, whe nthe parking areas are empty ,

-it is very obvious that the stu-dents are not showing any signsof tidiness or any considerationwhen they simply throw every -thing out of their cars od t othe ground .

It is so noticeable that somefriends of mine from out-of-town remarked at the conditio nwhen I was driving the maround last week-end .

Apparently the students eattheir lunch in the cars and pro-ceed to throw paper, paperbags, scraps of food, orangepeel, etc ., any place, and thi sis not confined to one or tw oisolated cases, but is sprea dover every parking area indis-criminately. If the situation i snot corrected it will entail thehiring of additional janitorservice to keep the place tidy ,with further unnecessary ex-pense to -the University .

When so much money is be-ing spent on the University fo rthe students' benefit, and as th egrounds are being beautifie dand kept attractive, and well -watered all around the build-ings during the summer monthsto keep the grass as green aspossible ; it seems strange tha tthe students should have solittle sense of fitness of things `around the parking areas (a sI understand they get space al-lotted to them) to make it a neyesore. Surely any studen tacting this way should be dis-allowed the use of the parkingareas .

I am sure you would wantthis mater brought to your at-tention, and the whole of th eFaculty, as I have no doubt i tis as much of a concern to your-self as anybody passing by, t osee the condition in whichthese areas are becoming, eve nthough much money has bee nspent in making them useful .

Yours sincerely ,Air Vice-Marshal K . G. Nairn .

To Each His OwnThe Editor,The Ubyssey .Dear Sir :

Allan Graves, in his letter onour sinking standard in musi-cal taste, was confused on oneextremely important point .The swing to rock'n'roll on ourcampus says absolutely nothingabout the average student' staste in music .

In the first place, teenagersmerely identify themselve swith the performer or with thesituation in the lyrics of today' spopular songs, the musical ap-preciation is nil .

In the second place, trend sin popularity are dictated b ypromoters and disc jockeys ,not by public appeal . We aremerely the sheep whose fleece

lines the Cadillacs of the herds -men . These same sheep woul ddoubtlessly pay little or no at-tention to musical evolutionwithout the medium of radio .

In general, it is the musical-ly-inclined person who delve sinto some of the various formsof quality music, because heabhors the artistic limitationsof The Beat . He may, how-ever, still enjoy rock 'n' rol lpurely for its social implica-tions .

I think that the stand whic hMr. Graves says must be take nin Radsoc programming is en-tirely the business of the dis cjockeys involved, and shouldnot be tampered with . I hopeonly that campus preference sin music tend towards those o fMr. Graves and that Radsocwill respond favorably t othose opinions .

Bryan Stovell .

Reasonable DoubtThe Editor ,The Ubyssey .

Dear Sir:A leader of a refugee organi-

zation in the USA makes anannouncement . For purely`humanitarian" reasons it i sgiven publicity by a well-known television . personality :It is then accepted blindly b yNFCUS and then in turn byour own AMS. Did they everstop to think for one momen tthat there may not be an ytruth in the statement? Is itsufficient these days for anyanti-communist merely tomake a statement in order tostart a wave of hysteria? Areour minds so conditioned tha twe will believe anything wehear merely because a Hun-garian refugee declares it "tobe true. There is absolutelyno proof of these charges, theCanadian government has noknowledge as to their veracityand naturally the Hungaria ngovernment declares themfalse.

Let us not . be so naive as t oimagine that all refugee lea-ders ensconed in, and support-ed by the USA are paragon sof virtue and crusaders fo rdemocracy . There are manyreasons why these people wantto keep the cold war goingbut there is no reason why weshould give them our support .We are constantly being aske dget their cause. Let us thenby the Hungarians not to for-stretch our memories a littlefurther and remember thatthey were the willing sup -porters of Hitler during thelast war.

Many are the just causes fo rwhich the AMS and the stu-dent body could voice theirprotests . The life imprison-ment of a Negro in the USAfor stealing a few dollars, theFrench atrocities in N. Africa ,the murder of prisoners inNyassaland .

If the people who signe dthis petition, signed it for hu-manitarian reasons let the mexamine their conscience jus ta little further. And let theAMS think a little more be-fore they panic into organiz-ing such another petition .

Your truly,L. Hexter .

Human SewageThe Editor ,The Ubyssey .Dear Sir : -

"Hungarian charges misfire "at least according to the "Com-munist Viewpoint." I was wait-ing - for 'such" a -statement since -

the petitions against the pend-ing executions of 150 Hun-garian y uths started to circu-late on tee campus . I expecte dour local Moscowites to chal-lenge the validity of the Hun-garian plea at least on th epages of the Ubyssey, but the yprobably did not receive theirorders in time from the Komin-form. Only now, when the ap-peal of the students of UBCstarts to cause a world-wideecho, the rat-choir starts to singits song .

Their argument is : "Kadarsays: Executions story false . "Is it an argument? Can we ac-cept Comrade Kadar's wordsas truth? Had the big brotherof our local red trash never in-dulged in such pastimes as exe-cuting his opponents? Perhapsthe executions of Iinre Nagy ,Pal Maleter and other partici-pants of the 1956 uprising wer ealso untrue? We cannot `prove 'them either .

It would be compleiely use-less to start a debate with theMoscow-financed human sew -age on our campus . If theircomrade, Kadar, will be willin gto open the gates of the Iro nCurtain, if he will allow an in -dependent delegation of theU.N. or any respectable free 'nation to go into Hungary andinvestigate the jails, the con-centration and forced laborcamps there, then, knowing thefindings of such a delegation ,we could discuss the charges ofour local branch of the Komin-form. Till then it is the wordof 200,000 Hungarian refugeesagainst the word of these Com-munist Quislings .

It is up to you, UBC students ,to decide in which you believe .

Sweet Young ThingThe Editor ,The Ubyssey .Dear Sir :

In an institution, such as theUBC, which is allegedly de-voted to education and thought,it is paradoxical to find thatthe students are controlled bya sub-culture that appears tobe antithetical to both thesequalities . I suggest that thissub-culture, the Department o fAdministration, has for to olong pursued its career of un-reason and red tape .

• My quarrel with the Dept . ofAdministration rests on two ex-amples . The first is the storyof a Hungarian Ph .D ., who,when he came to this country ,worked on the editorial staffs

t of both Life and Time maga-zines . On arriving at the UB Ccampus to do post-graduat ework, he found that he had t otake English 100, to make surehe knew the language !

The second example is tha tof a Sweet Young Thing whospent upwards of a year i nGermany . When she returned toUBC she expressed a desire tomajor in German . She foundherself arbitrarily placed in anintroductory German course !

I must admit that Adminis-tration has a certain value atUBC, where a mass-productioneducational systdm is consid-ered satisfactory . However ,"mass education" is a contra-diction of terms . I suggest thatsome reason be infused intothe Department of Administra-tion to render the . contradic-tion a little less glaring .

"Canada has always reactedsympathetically to refugee prob-lems—probably because so manyCanadians are immigrants them-selves or their parents or grand-parents were immigrants," sh esaid .

TheCanada had received 37,566 Hun-garian refugees, "almost 20 - per-cent of the total number whofled Hungary," and incurred di-rect costs of approximately $15, -000,000 in so doing .

"The United States which witha population eleven times thatof Canada, took approximatel ythe same number," she added . .

The Crucible CrackedCRITICISM A

EDITOR: 1%l

SLUTS AND LO l

Last Tuesday evening theCBC- put on an adaptation ofArthur Miller's THE CRU-

• CIBLE, with, unfortunately,more adaptation than Mille rin evidence. The result wasmerely a play about the Salemwitch scare of 1892 with larg esections of exposition squashe dinto unexplaining briefness .

Much of the difficulty arosefrom the interpretation giventhe character of Abigail Wil-

liams. M i 11 e r describes he ras "a strikingly beautiful gir l—with an endless capacity fo rdissembling," driven by pas-sion and insanity into bein gthe dominant spirit of the com-munity's hysteria . Instead ofthis, the CBC presented anattractive young wean withgentle brooding eyes and a fullpouting mouth who seemed tohave far more of calculationthan of insanity about her, andwhose provocativeness w a sconfined to long hair looselyflopping about her face . Underthis handicap, her past sexual

relationship with John be -comes the common affair o fan erring husband with hispretty housemaid, and Abi-gail's emotional dominanceover the other young girls ofthe community is thus uncon-vincing in the extreme . Indeed ,all the scenes involving thechildren give nothing morethan a general impression ofmental chaos .

Fortunately for the produc-tion as a whole, the two lead-ing roles of John Proctor andhis wife Elizabeth were bothwell done, and the sceneswhere these two were alone to-gether were by far the best.The quality . of the supportingroles varied greatly . Titubalacked the spontaneity of emo -

tion that her supposed Barba-dos Islands origin should havegiven her .MaryWarren wasconsistently effective, showingbest in her appearance beforeDanworth. Danworth himselfwas a somewhat cumbersomelyheavy deputy-governor . Parriswas shaved to such a minimu mthat he never evolved intopossessing a character with hisone brief chance—during thebedroom scene—far too wood -en for individuality. Rebecca 'was excellent in physical ap-pearance and well acted butwith one exception—her exitin the first act . John Drainie' sHale lacked clarity in his priv-ate faith-reason battle, butmuch of this was due to th eshortening of the play whichundoubtedly placed a grea tstrain on the whole produc-tion .

Quite drastic telescopingwas undoubtedly necessary inorder to fit the play into itsallotted ninety minutes, but

some of the changes made in

Miller's script cannot be ex-plained by this. Both the be-ginning and the end were nea rmisses from the mark of pow-erful drama. The openingdance scene starts eerily an dwell, but upon the appearanceof Parris, the girls scatter al ltoo suddenly, and, with theexception of one thin squeal ,too silently, and neither inthat scene nor during the restof the production is any ex-planation given for what th egirls were doing in their weirdnight dance . At the end ofthe p 1 a y Elizabeth's finalspeech is powerfully delivered ,after which the picture o fJohn mounting the scaffold istagged on, apparently to makesure the audience understands

that John is really going to die .An even more jarring changefrom the original was Proctor' sexit from the court on a hars hrepeated laugh, instead o fwith Miller's infinitely su-perior "You are pulling heave ndown, and raising up a whore. "Definite damage was done tothe - plot by the omission ofMary Warren's failing to proveto Danforth her statement ofAbigail's pretense; withoutthis vital fragment, Mary' sswitch over to Abigail becomesmost difficult to comprehend.A completely unnecessarychange was Elizabeth's ques-tion to John, "Have you beenchained?" which becomes "Youhave been tortured?" The tor-ture of John being neither pic-tured nor implied in Miller' sversion, nor elsewhere in theCBC's . Also bewildering wasthe removal of John's scenewith Mary from its logica lplace at the end of Act I toits unstuck position at the be-ginning of Act II .

There were also several ofthose minor errors that loomso large for the audience .Abigail's mop of hair was on eglaring mistake: it looked al ltoo much like a modernpermed coiffure that had wel lgrown out . Elizabeth's com-ing into the presence of Haleattired in her nightgown, witha robe covering only her shoul-ders was surely out of hercharacter, and out of the cus-tom) of her times. John ischained for three months ina dungeon, yet his hair andbeard are of the same lengthas when he was first imprison-ed, and although apparently'still in the same clothing, heis only slightly soiled One isleft with the difficult assump-tion .that while his captors puthim to torture, they werequite thoughtful in matters ofhis persohal cleanliness Afte rbeing three months chained ,John is in remarkably soun dmuscular condition; a close-upof marked wrists would havebeen much more effectivethan his vague rubbing mo-tions

All in all, the viewer of thi sCBC production was left in aparadoxical situation : if he didnot know Miller's play, hewould be lost in the inexplic-able CBC tangles ; if he _didknow THE CRUCIBLE, he .would be lost trying to find it .

But that is byt h e way. Special Eventsshould have scheduled tha tconcert at least in one of th elarge and very empty Buchan-an rooms, and if people wer esquashed, so what?

Th ephy and index it is happily freeof the long bothersome 'foot-notes which so adtert discouragethe non-historian reader. MissJenkins gives references onlywhen necessary and then brief-ly. In fact, the whole tone ofthe book is one of a sort ofmeandering curiosity and inter-est, rather than a systemati chistorical stdy. Yet it is evi-dent that th'e writer has her-self done an astounding amoun tof research and has a verythorough knowledge of he rsubject .

Many of the "minor events"Miss Jenkins mentions are con-nected with Elizabeth's love af-fairs and marriage negotiations— an intricate but intriguin gbusiness in which the queen de-

Eric Nicol's earlier books:Sense and Nonsense, The Rov-ing I, to name two, were wild-ly, happily insane . And fun-ny, too . His latest, In DarkestDomestica, is in comparisonpretty tame. Nor it is veryfunny .

n a little more than a hund-red pages, Nicol has only writ-ten two or three chapters thatcould be called funny . Therest are smoothly, slickly writ-ten, but dull .

The fact that this book i swritten by the man who i sprobably - Canada's greatest liv-ing humorist makes it painfu lto condemn it . But the irnpres-sion remains that -Nicol - i scoasting on his reputation . Ifthe book had been written byan unknown, it is unlikelythat it would have been pub- 'lished .

As one who gleefully de-voured his earlier books, I ha dexpected this latest to soar tonew heights of hilarity . Butthere is little that is new inthe book. The formula isgenerally the same but writtentiredly. The feeling conveyedis "where have I read thisbefore?"

Perhaps an author's latestwork should not be comparedwith his earlier efforts . Onewho has not read Nicol befor emay find In Darkest Domestic aenjoyable. But even thatpoint may be disputed .

The question to be asked i sof course: why? Besides thesameness of formula, there isone other factor that may part-ly account for the book's fail-ure: much of the material hasappeared in Nicol's daily col-umn in The Province .

Newspapers have been term-ed "history in a hurry." Ifthat fact is true, as no doubtit is, it's still nevertheless tru ethat such "history" makes un-satisfactory reading when it ispublished in book form. Thereare numerous exceptions, ` butnewspaper writing rarely as-cends to any creative peak.There just isn't -time.

The same should perhaps betaken- inte sgpnsideration with

So the book goes on, full ofcolorful detail of the everydaylife, costume, apearance, amusesilents and problems of Eliza-beth and her friends.

regard to Nicol's "humor in ahurry." A daily : deadline hasadvantages, above all produc-tion—reams of itbut thisproduction doesn't often makea book. It didn't in this case.Domestic humor seems like aripe subject, and indeed Nico lleads into it well : "From Bae-deker to Speck, from club-ba gto garbage bag, from wander-lust to suburbitis, it's all here .Well, perhaps not all . Butenugh, it . is warml-y hoped, toprove to the less confirmedbachelor that there is a lifeafter death (the wedding re-ception), and that there is noth-ing like sinking roots for turn-ing the restless, unhappy hu-man being into a :well-adjustedvegetable . "

But the other freshly-writ-ten parts which join togetherthe columns don't match thehumor of the preface . Thecontinuity is awkward and a simplied above, the column s(chapters) themselves are un-even in quality .

Is there any ray of light in .this otherwise gloomy com-mentary? It's difficult to findone, but perhaps the hope canstill be held forth that Nicol ,young and energetic as he is ,has plenty of time to producethe books of genuine humorthat he can write .

Vic Stars InGrass Hockey

By ALAN DAFO E

Victor Warren, Varsity cen-treforward and captain, has beenone of the mainstays of this UB CA Division grass hockey tea mofr the last four years .

Nine years ago, Vic commenc-ed his field hockey career wit hUniversity High School butquickly moved on to play for theA Division Redbirds . Duringthese years, Warren was sta-tioned at. right . wing and insideright,'-After finding his niche inthe `centre forward slot, he be -cane a Varsity regular .

'In his opening season at UBC ,

Vic alternated between Varsityand Blues . In the playoffs thatyear, Warren: picked up tjireegoals for Varsity . In 1957-58 ,Warren centred the forward lin eof what he considers to be th egreatest Varsity team ever as-sembled during his years atUBC .

That season, the Don . Gunning-Vic Warren - Gordie F o r w a r dline set up the plays for 93 goal sin20 games. In addition, Varsitywon two out of three cups ope nto A Division competitors .

Last season War-ren raised his lifetime scoringtotal in A Division company to70 goals as he fired 20 tallies i nleading Varsity to a second plac efinish in_.regular league play .League Predictions
