AUDIENCE ENJOYS

UBC ARMORY MUSIC

The UBC Armory is a suitable place for the presentation

of fine music .

This fact was proved Thursday evening at the concert

presented there by the Don Cossack male choir. In the opin-

ion of the capacity audience, the especially fine acoustical

qualities of the building more than made up 'for its lack o f

cultural atmosphere .

TICKETS

the scheme to use the Armory for

large concerts had been developed

partly in order to create a more

reasonable ticket scale. He ex-

plained that the price range woul d

remain the same as for concerts

presented downtown, but that more

lower priced seats would be avail-

able in the Armory .

He apologized for the fact that

Thursday's concert did not start on

time, but attributed the delay to

difficulties connected with usin g

the Armory for the first time .

The influence of college graduates on the public' sopinion towards a university cannot be overestimated .

That is particularly so in British Columbia, a provinc enoted for its lack of interest in higher education . The faultmay lie in the fact that many of UBC's graduates are lure daway to other parts of the continent by promises of bette rjobs and higher pay .

But B .C . needs her graduates . Business and industry may not requiretheir education and talents, as yet, but they are necessary for the well -being of the province, and the university .

. .omens and portentsBy NANCY MACDONALD

It is quite likely that the welcome ex-tended each year by the undergraduates o fthe University of British Columbia to th ealumni on the occasion of Homecoming Dayis a warmer one than that accorded to anyother group of college graduates ,

The reason is a simple one . The under-graduates know that throughout the uni-versity's history each graduating class ha sleft a richer heritage for the students tha tare to follow. They appreciate the fact tha tit would be difficult to find a universitywhere the students themselves have contri-buted so much to the growth of their AlmaMater.

Today, during the most sentimental cele-brations of any college year, undergrads wil lbe greeting grads with more than mere feel-ings of sentiment . They will be greeting thealumni also with a sense of appreciation, fo rthey realize that because of the sacrifices ofthose alums the UBC students of 1946 areenjoying a better college life than wouldhave been the case had their predecessor sbeen content merely to receive rather thanto take and to give .

HOME COMING, 1946

The Children 's HourGood morning, my turpitudinous little ivy

trogdolytes . A wet, happy, nag-free week -end to all of you married couples .

Speaking of marriage, we have been cast-ing about on the suspicion that same od dlittle cultural institution in our communit ymight be languishing. A bit of snoopingaround between the pages of that moroseacademic manifesto, the University Calen-dar, seems to indicate that something is hor-ribly wrong.

And would you believe it, now, but thisthrobless threnody, this same book with nota single picture in it, this very same tomewhich devotes two column inches to DairyMycology and the study of molds that tak epart in the ripening of cheese—search as yo ulike, but nowhere in it will you find thatmagic little word : "love" .

TIM MISSING LINKNo air, not once. Not even under Histori-

cal Sketch, Physical Education requirement sfor Men and Women, or University Exten-sion. There must be around 140,000 word sin that book, and . the word "love" doesn' tappear once. Why?, Doesn' t it rate? Do

we have to be THAT academic ?It doesn't seem right, somehow . We have,

milling around out here on this super-sand-spit on the romantic Gulf of Georgia, som e8501 human souls . Maybe some of themARE sub-human, but anyway, they do havesouls. You'll not deny that . However atro-phied. And if there's anything to the ol dsong which goes: "Ah, It's Love and Lovealone the world is seeking," then they'd bet -ter not look in our Calendar for it . It ain'tthere.

Well, then, stretching a point and grantin gthat these 8500 souls are human, it wouldseem pretty certain that a good part of them ,resting, as they are, somewhere betweenpuberty and palsy (and closer to the former ,for the greater part) ought to have a passinginterest in Love . I bet if you ran themthrough a spectokineticscope, then followedit up with a shot at the new Stanford-BinetpsychoReBopanalograph test, through anelctro-Freudian screen, you would get aMeasurement of Interest chart that wouldreveal their yearnings in the following order :i . Food; ii. Money; iii. Shelter; iv. Love ;v. Academic Attainment ; and so on .

LOST—Waterman's maroon pen—vicinity of Arta and App. Sc .buildings. Finder please phoneBAy. 2451-Y.

FOUND—Evenharp petted—"Can .Consolidated Grain Company."Apply AMS office .

In listing the efforts of former undergrad-uates to improve the University of B.C., thestress is usually placed upon such tangiblerewards as Brock Hall, the Stadium, theArmory, and the Old Gymnasium . Becausetoday's Homecoming also marks the renewa lof the campaign to achieve the greatest of allstudent goals—the construction on the cam -pus of a B.C. War Memorial Gymnasium—that stress is certainly not out of place .

At the same time, however, it would befitting not to lose sight of the fact that UBC ' salumni have handed down to present under-graduates possessions of less tangible worth.In such a category should be placed the tra-dition of co-operation between students onone side and the faculty and administrationon the other, or the most independent an dcomprehensive system of self-governmentenjoyed by any student body.

As another one of the more intangible heir-looms—an independent student newspaperresponsible to students—the Ubyssey isproud to add its loud voice to the greetin gof "Welcome, Grads!" which is heard aboutthe campus on this day—Homecoming, 1946 ,

By LES BEWLEY

Interested in Food, eh? Well, we've go tField Crops, Animal Diseases, Cheese-Mak-ing and Greenhouse Practice, to name a few.Money?—See Money and Banking, PublicFinance—help yourself .

You have those? It's Love you're Seek-ing? Ah, wisht, I 'm sorry—I 'm afraid it ' snot in the curriculum. Perhaps, instead,you'd care for a little spectroscopy, refracto-meters, astrophysics, elementary particles ,thermionics, Zeeman Effect, gas liquefaction ,multilateral trade, purchasing power parity ,Victorian poetry, blowpipe analysis, geomor-phology, complex variables and elliptic func-tions—No? Ah, then, I suppose you 'd notbe interested in chordate anatomy, limnology ,or the chemistry of sea water—nossir-nothing on Love. It isn't a course, and I'mafraid it isn ' t certainly a course leading to aDegree. Sorry.

Ah, well, this is but romantic drivel, thissearch for Love in a Calendar . Let's go findit in it's natural habitat—behind potted palm soh on a Greyhound Bus .

THE SPECIALISTS

Who would be such a fool as to look fo ra course in it, anyway? And if . there weresuch, who would give it—Adam LeZonga ?The other Faculties would make an unhol ymess of that subject—Agriculture wouldtreat it as seed and crops, Commerce woul dmajor it's mercenary angles, the biologistswould count its toes, the physicists sniff a tit for wave motion and the psychologists ,worst of all monsters, would deduce its emo-tions by testing for salt on the palm of th ehand. The blind men and the elephant .

And if we were mad enough to have aCourse in Marriage, with a chapter on Lov eincluded, we should thereafter have to listento earnest young women saying: "Well, Ithink you have to WORK at marriage; Iregard it as a partnership . . ." Quite for-getting the old business rule that a partner -ship is the worst form of arrangement youcan get into .

And anyone who needs a course in Lov eis manifestly unfit for employment in tha tfield, anyway. Gad sir, your credentials dis-qualify you!

Wurra . . . let's leave the Calendar alone ,eh?

ANTAGONISTIC FEELINGOutside of Vancouver, and even in the city, there Is a very definite

feeling of antagonism towards UBC . Unlike the eastern American state . ,this province was not settled by people who believed in the importanc eof education and would gob any ends to obtain it.

Before the war, and perhaps even now, only three per cent of th epopulation of British Columbia was college graduates . Of course, noteveryone wants to go to college, nor can they . But three per cent is stil la very small number.

And of the other 87 per cent, there is a large amount who are agains tuniversity education and college students .

Such opinions may not be so apparent In Vancouver, but If you havelived in a small interior town or on the Island, you would notice suc hunfriendly feeling. Only in towns which support a consolidation ofcollege graduates is there much interest drown in university activities.

SITUATION EASEDThis situation may be eased when the present top-heavy enrollmen t

at UBC leaves the university, provided there is no mass exodus to th eUnited States or Eastern Canada .

But the fact remains that the lighter moments of the university areoverpublicized, and the good that the university or Its graduates aooan-plish goes unnoticed .

Our cads can help in influencing provincial support and approval o fthe university. This campus has always been particularly for tunate inproducing an active and aggressive group of undergrads When the needarose. But we cannot cover the whole province.

It is tip . to the graduates to do that. If they maintain their enthusiasmin the university, through the Alumnae groups, and interest their town sin the university activities, then they are carrying on the standards theyset when they hunt the first gym, the stadium, the Armory and the Brock .

literary criticism a feeling of res-pect for his ability to handlewords has, in the past, been ev eeked in me . But words are not de-tached counters capable of lrrele-vent groupings . Words are signsfor objects of our experience an dwhen associated in a pattern llkdthat of the short story they con-vey meanings. So it is, I feel ,legitimate to criticize the mew„ingconveyed by the author ae cap-able of distorting his form andrendering it finally worthless as asignificant work of tart .

These stories are glib—brilliant-ly glib, if such a category is per-missable . "The Man Who ShotSnapping Turtles" can be takena3 an amusing squib, or it can betaken as a parable impliclty con -

* *The last story in the collection

is "Mr. and Mrs . Blackburn atHome" which contains an 8½ pagediatribe in French lumping thealleged amorality of the Stalinistregime with that of the Nazis.Apart from this dubiously help-ful political message the story, asa story, tails to pieces alarminglywithout Wilson's usual adhetiveurbanity.

"Time's" final comment on thebook was, "Evil is as vivid throughthe book as a bushful of snakes . 'This presence of Evil would bejustifiable in a book choosing suchan expert from Gogol as its solepreface, It isn't because of thispermeating presence of Evil that Ifinally deny the validity of Mr.Wilson's book, but for the steril-ity of the meaning he assesses asEvil.

This week I've spent worryingabout Edmund Wilson . I meant to

write simply a review of his re -cent book of short stories, "Mem-oirs of Hecate County," which has ,I understand, been banned no tonly in Boston but in moat otherAmerican cities as well . .

I haven't been worrying abou tthis however. It will no doubt In -crease the sales of the book, an dthough it is a sign of our genera llevel of pruient stupidity and en ,otional dishonesty, that has notbeen bothering me specially thi sweek .

This brilliant work of fiction, "the cover blurb says, "describesthe adventures of an egotist amongthe ;bedevilled." Now, this doescontain the kernels of what hasbeen bothering me.

Certainly the people Mr . Wilsondescribes are bedevilled. Theyseem to exist for him only in thisfashion. You and I may occasion •ally think while talking to some -

*taming Mr. Wilson's own valueswhich are no longer amusing ."Glimpses of Wilbur Flick" af-fords the careful reader not onlyuneasily tolerant Egotist whodoesn't quite recognize his owninefficacy in that of Wilber Flick."Ellen Terhune" and "The Mil-hollands and their Damned Souls"are the best things in the bookI'd say. "The Princess" for whomthe book has been banned, is no ,really worth the fuss, you know .The Egotist's amatory calisthenicere supposed to have great socialsignificance contained in their er-otic manouvres . But though "An -;:a," the dance-hall girl, comesthrough as a person at moments,the social comment is neither par .titularly subtle nor noticeably sig-nificant .

*Against this I would quote from

an earlier Wilson who concludeshis "American Jitters" (1931) par-

tly in these words: "I appeal tothe other professional theoristsand artists to be careful how theyplay the game of the capitalists .It is bad for their theory and thei rart to try to adapt themselves toit system which is the enemy oftheory and art. Their true solla-arity lies with those elements wh owill remodel society by the powe rof imagination and thought — byacting on life to make somethin gnew; not with whose work isdone and whose grip has failedand who are now carried alongmerely by the force of a slacken-ing momentum to which they areunable to supply fresh force .

call- gem

By LAURIE DYER

THE BIG FOUR AND VARSITYIt'a really marvellous what a little publicity can't do for

a university. No sooner does the Alma Mammy take up a nicelittle game like American Football than the local scribes (orshould I say, one in particular) starts making largesome

hints about Varsity challenging the winners of the Big Four

loop which is currently in action around these parts .

Now there's no doubt about it that it would certainly

just go to show where all the football power lies in our fai r

city, but as yet there has been very little talk about such a

game around the campus.In fact, in the humble opinion of yours truly, there seem s

to be very little interest in the matter around here . It seemsthat the Big Four would be very interested in receiving a

challenge from the Blue and Gold but interest is not that

high around these parts .The East Is Out

In fact, two more possibilities have been scratched off

the list of post-season games. In the last month, two eastern

colleges have been sounded out about the possibility of

"bowl" games. Both McMaster and Toronto were interestedin the tilt but the whole idea had to be dropped for Several

reasons ,The main reason is that our grandstands will not hold more

than 5000 at the most if everyone is using the least amount of

space possibk . And whet does it cost to bring thirty-two menout here from Toronto? Believe It or not, friend, it comes t o

slightly more than $5000 .Therefore it seems rather unlikely that the game woul d

even make costa . The second reason is that with the Thun-derbird team playing this American code this year, the ywould not be ready to play a team that has been playing

Canadian rules all season.

It's Quite A ProblemAnd then again there's the problem of where to put an

eastern team when they do get here. There's the problem ofwhat to do with the weatherman if he decided to favour u s

with a foot of snow the night before the game was sche-duled to come off .

Yes, there are a great many problems for a Universitytrying to back a football game with an eastern team at tha t

time of year. There is very little question in the minds ofthe grid moguls that the game would draw a great crowd.

A game between the Toronto squad and Varsity wouldbe headline news across the continent—the top college teamof the West meeting the top Eastern team in a battle forCanadian college supremacy . What a story for a newspaperman ! !

Imagine ! !—Mexico, YetBu then, who knows? The Varsity squad may end u p

playing in Mexico for all we know. There was some talkabout the B.C. team going down south of the American bor-der to represent Canada in a bit of a competition . But then,that's rather a tough assignment for the campus kids whe nthey have only played one year in the American loop .

And talking about American grid and the local talent re -minds us that today is the big day for the Kabat-kids . Collegeof Idaho invades the campus today to meet the 'Birdmen i ntheir third Conference game of the schedule.

Although it seems rather hard to believe, the Blue an dGold Thunderbirds still have a chance to finish in a tie forsecond place providing that they win the rest of their games .

Not Too Much HelpDon't sneer, brother . It is actually possible. Of course,

according to the grandstand quarterbacks, of which thereseems to be an endless supply in the stands this year, Varsit ycouldn't do it . But just ask the boys who know .

According to the moguls who know their football, Varsityhas been improving steadily in every game to date. The teamfrom Whitman was actually amazed that Varsity could pla ythat kind of football when they have only played three gamesbefore that time.

All that we have to do is get in there and give the boy sour backing with all the lungs possible . If the guy next toyou looks at you queerly, don't let it throw you .

As long as you're yelling for Varsity, you're fighting forthe boys. That's what counts, brother .
