"If. Council wishes to legislateon eligibility, it must make aproposal and have it passed bya two-thirds majority at a gen-eral meeting of the studentbody," he said .

Education today is turning outconforming automatons, not edu-cated men, Dean Neville Scarfeof Education charged Wednes-day .

t'In the past, we have laid em-phasis on the tools of learningrather than learning itself," hesaid . "This turns out men whodo not know the reason for whatthey learn . "

Not only have the methods o fteaching become outmoded butalso much of the matter beingtaught will be outmoded in thenear future, Scarfe added.

Due to this fundamenta lchange taking place today, it isessential that "we concentrateon the tools of thinking ratherthan those of learning," he said .

Mueh of the teaching beingdone today is `instruction' ratherthan 'teaching,' Scarfe said.

The Parliamentary Counci lruns UBC's annual Model Par-liament .

Because of the lack of con-tact, Pollard said, second vice -president Pat Glenn has mad eerroneous and wild charge sof power politics in Parlia-mentary Council .

"Contrary to his statement ,each political party has onevote exercised by its presi-dent," said Pollard .

"Where Pat Glenn got theidea that one political partycould pack a meeting with it svotes, I don't have the slight-est idea . "

"I certainly hope Mr . Glennwas. not implying that anyparty was using its funds to

to look into getting additiona lfunds for the building, afterplanning consultant Porter Buttssaid the original $800,000 woul dhardly pay for satisfactory foodservices .

He said attempts would bemade to have the company ex-tend its lending into the field o fthe Alma Mater Society .FEDERAL GRANT

"There is a possibility . of adirect federal grant," he said ,"but there is no pre -Merit forsuch a grant." -

Scott said the Un. sersity Ad-ministration would most likelybe asked' to increase the amountthey plan to put into food serv-ices .

MEMBER CANADIAN UNIVERSIIY PRES S

Who's eligible?The question of student eligibility has once more risen a t

the council level . It arose and lived for almost two hours before

the whole mess was thrown to student court . The court is to

,decide the question of who has ultimate authority to legislate

on eligibility rules .

The whole hassle was caused when the ,AMS treasurer

raised the question of council 's legal right to rule on eligibility .

According to the AMS constitution, of which no copies

are in print save a few mimeoed efforts in the AMS office,

bylaw 3, section 6, sub-section (h) : "The Students' Council

shall : Have the power to amend or alter _the .AMS code by a

three-quarters majority vote . "

Mr. Scott, ,however, seems to hold that regardless of thi s

section, council : cannot rule on eligibility . For his support in

this endeavour, he is using Bylaw 1, section 4 of the AMS

constitution which reads : "The rights and obligations of mem-

bers of the Society shall be as provided in the Bylaws of th e

Society ."

Since the eligibility rules are part of the code and the cod e

is not a bylaw of the Society it would seem that Mr . Scott has

at least this point in his favor.

Now the AMS is constituted under the Societies Act o f

the province of British Columbia and this document says inregard to eligibility to run for election under section 25 (1) :

"Subject to the bylaws, the members of a society may nominate ,elect, or appoint any of its members as directors for conductin g

the business, discipline and management of the society and it s

affairs . "

The important section of this statement appears to be onthe first four words : "Subject to the bylaws." Therefore it

would appear that Mr . Scott's point is well taken .

In order for the code to be incorporated as a bylaw of theAMS it would have to pass by a two-thirds vote at a generalmeeting and be registered in Victoria.

Now one would think that somewhere along the line th ecode would have been passed at a general meeting .

It was, a number of times, but it appears the decision wasnever registered in Victoria .

Where does that leave us as far eligibility is concerned ?Well, we're not sure. We hope the court can come up withsomething .

Your choiceHave you got someone you 'd like to see president of the

AMS next year? If so, you'd better make sure he's not youronly choice, because the may not be eligible. On the othe rhand, he may be . We don't know. Nor does anyone else .

And if you are entertaining any ideas about getting th eeligibility rules and then tailoring your man to fit, forgetthem. The rules probably won 't be out in time.

However, the nominations are open now, and will be untilFeb. 1 . So get , your man's name down on a piece of paper ,get 10' of your buddies to sign it, and post it on the bulleti nboard in the AMS office.

Then hope for the best.

Contrary to aim 'Editor,The Ubyssey .Dear Sir :

. Those responsible for cir-culating the petition to be sent

.to Mr. Diefenbaker calling o nthe Prime Minister to- restric tthe activities of the Communis tParty of Canada, are workingcontrary to the avowed ai m(th protect freedom) of the ap-peal .

They are taking advantageof liberties, many of whichwould be abolished by thecreation of the police state soadvocated in the appeal .

Rights behaig challenged b ythis "unknown" band of "free-dom-fighters" are the right o fprivate assembly and the rights

' embodied in and associate dwith the secret ballot .

If the government of theUnited States revives thespirit of McCarthyism or in -corporates into its laws pro-posals from the John BirchSociety and other "rightist"organization, it is her preroga-tive. However, it does not ne-cessarily follow that the Cana-dian government do likewise .

In fact the Canadian govern-ment would do well not t oentertain such fascist tenden-cies .

We must act now to upholdthe democratic rights whichwe now enjoy my denouncin gthose who would have us livein a state where intimidationand persecution are the prin-cipal means of providing fo runanimity of opinion .

AttackEditor ,The Ubyssey .Dear Sir :

The basic Canadian rights offree political expressions ar epresently under attack at UB Cby a group of self-admittedfascists , the majority of who mI have met being recent immi-grants from West Germany .Not that there is any connec-tion between fascism and Ger-many !

The most recent adventureof these Canadian-style (withGerman accent) nazis ha sbeen the distribution of a let-ter calling for the registratio n(read "illegalization") of theCommunist Party of Canada .Under the pretense of declar-ing the 1962 membership con-vention of the Canadian Com-munist Party (some parties inour country do have such con-ventions) an international "plot -making conference", the un-known "neighbour" of the let-ter calls for Mr. Diefenbakerto "prohibit the conference . "

The accusation, of course ,lacks any rational reasonin gwhatsoever . Obviously, if a for-eign communist party was t o"hatch seditious plots", theywould go to the Soviet Unio nor China. But the fact is tha tthe convention being held inToronto this weekend is a con-vention of 'Canadian workers ,farmers and intellectuals . Aswell as advocating socialism ,these communists propose t othe Canadian people immediat esolutions for a peaceful , inde-pendent and neutral Canada .

The fascists do not only at-tack the communists , however,

they smear anything from so-cialized medicine to iluorida-lion of the water . As Senato rS . Young writes in the Jan. 13edition of Post, "Under theguise of jousting with allegedcommunists, these groups un-dermine our basic institutionsand try to reshape Americainto a totalitarian-fascist state .Their tactics are the big lieand the wanton smear . "

And so it will be on this uni-versity unless the students ac-tively see fit to oppose th espread . of Birchism or anyother malignant . growth offascism .

Civil liberties and democra-tic liberties must be carefull yprotected if they are to remai npermanent institutions in Can-ada .

' Biggest drunk but —'

Editor ,The Ubyssey .Dear Sir :

I'm afraid I must take issue

with Mr . MacDougall' s letter in

Tuesday's Ubyssey . I think Mr .

MacDougall must have re-ceived all his information sec-ond-hand, either from a biase dsource or from somebody wh ohad a lousy time . I've been tofour Mardi Gras, and none o fthem could be classified a seither a night of "barbarou sdrunkenness" on "primitive de-bauchery ." True enough, prob-ably the Mardi Gras is the big-gest organized drunk in th ecity of Vancouver, but (to us ethe Sunday movies argument )every year it's a sell-out .

And every year some charit-able organization reaps th eprofits of the natural propen-sity of almost every" collegestudent to go out on the tow nand have a slam-bang no-holds-barred good time . How can thecampus Greeks be classified a s"incredibly selfish creatures "when all the money is givenaway? What do they get out ofit that would inspire a selfishmotive? Heck, they don't needa Mardi Gras to satisfy thei rown animalistic pleasures, a sMr. M. says, and neither doe sanybody else .

Proof: Check Stanley Park ,Little Mountain, the top of theBritish Properties — anywher elike that on a Saturday night .But if people are going to bethat way, why not channel themoney they spend into pro-ductive channels — like th eCrippled Children's. Fund. Let' sface it : this is human nature .

Yours truly ,JOHN HUNTER

This, however, was pure fool-ishness on the part of the En-gineers because the library wa sjammed with irate Frosh .

These" valiant fighting me nrefused to be subdued by thos ered-sweatered students on th eoutside .

Being men, the freshmen wereconcerned for the safety of th edefenceless women, Aggies an dArtsmen who were also trappe dinside .

Out they poured, and in min-utes the marauders were drive nback: many of them running fo rthe safety of the Engineerin gbuilding .

It seems that Frosh have take nenough from these redshirt up-perclassmen , and have begu nthe road of retaliation ; assertingtheir power of being the secon dlargest undergraduate society o ncampus .

dressed in new blue sweatshirts.with white lettering "Frosh "Allstars" .

These hardy skaters will becheered home by a crowd o ftheir fellow Frosh and the winner of the grand race will b epresented with . . . the SilverSkate .

The stunt has been organize dwith much work on the part ofBetty Irwin and Bob Bailey .

The purpose of this stunt isto draw attention to the comin gof Frosh Week with its high =light being the Stardust . Ball a tthe Bayshore Inn on Saturday ,February 3 . -

A secondary outcome of thisevent is the convenience skatersfind in beating Busters! Build-ings and Grounds have not a syet thought up a rule concern-ing roller skates .

Until they. do, Frosh hassolved the parking problem !

Frosh disorganized

—Photo by Ted Ross Ltd.ONE WEEK from this Saturday the Bayshore Inn will be the location of the annual "STARDUS TBALL" sponsored by the Frosh Undergrads . This Campus Wide dance will surely be the bestdance for the campus this year.

Proof is evidentDuring the next week, the fresh .will have their chanc e

to show what they have learned at UBC in the last four

months.This statement may seem to have no bearing on the fes-

tivities coming up. But it does .For the first time, a bunch of "wet under the ears kids " ,

as we have been called by various people since we arrivedhere last year, are going to have the chance to show thesepeople how much we have found out about managing our -selves.

But we have had the opportunity to learn . If we havebeen watching others, and if we have been learning from wha twe have seen, we'll do a 'creditable job.

As with previous Frosh classes, this year 's class is dis-organized. And yet, the Frosh class is the second largest under-graduate society on campus .

There are various reasons for this . Frosh, as a body, are

only together for one year . The next year they are no longerFrosh, -but Sciencemen, Engineers, or Artsmen .

Some in their first year go directly into Agriculture orEducation and, quite rightly so, support these faculties befor e

considering their duties as Frosh.

Those who are just Frosh in their first year have no com-mon bonds. Engineers and Agriculture students are all workingtoward a common goal and thus group together, but the Frosh ,with their varied interests and goals in education, tend to be

simply a class of individual students .Frosh have been called apathetic and uninterested in cam -

pus life. This was proven as fact in last October 's election of

Frosh officers when less than one quarter voted .

However, apart from this, Frosh have not had . an oppor-tunity to show their enthusiasm (or lack of it) .

With the coming of Frosh Week and all the preparatio nthat goes with it, a few energetic souls have come forth to helpmake the events in it successful for their fellow Frosh .

This support has been far from ideal, but it does proveone thing, that some Frosh do take an interest in events

at UBC .The other members of the freshman class, and for tha t

matter, all the students of this university, will be able to bene-fit b the hard work of these few.

ese events planned for Frosh Week are designed to getthose in first year active in campus life . Only with an enthusi-

astic Frosh support will they be successful.

Here is a resume of Frosh ac -tivities since the election of th efreshmen executive in the fall .

Immediately after the elec -

tions a Frosh Council was se tup to inclure an elected (or ,when necessary, appointed )

representatives from each Eng-lish 100 class .

These reps meet once amonth to discuss and criticizematters of general importanceand items arising from the ex -ecutive meetings .

The first executive meetin gof the Fresh Council was heldon October 14, and at this meet-ing the newsletter editor andp u b l i c relations officer wer eselected from the applicants .Appointed for the former posi-tion was Jim Sinclair, and forthe latter, Doug Hunter.

The first Frosh Newslette rw a s distributed through t h eEnglish reps in November.

During Women's Week ,Frosh -girls provided shoeshines and manicures for mem-

Frosh council, slow to start ,now organizing Frosh wee k

Let's grow up Frosh ! ! . . . .

This publication gives an op-portunity to first-year studentsto have some of their ideas car -ried via a sheet of newsprint totheir fellow students .

Whether the publication ofother faculties bear the sincereideas of their students, I do notknow.

However, I am, and I hop emore students will begin t outilize the opportunity the yhave to express to their fellows,opinions which may seem senti -mental or trite, but in realityare one step towards freeingmen of the perplexing situatio nthe world is in .

The first-year student uponentering university is surprisedat the freedom of vulgaritywhich abounds .

Not that the student is an in-nocent human being, but ratherhe or she expected more fromthe older, more mature stu-dents .

The Frosh find also that it i sonly the minority which con-cern themselves with obsceneliterature and the like .

However as the wishes ofthe minority -seem to be pre-sented, w i t Ji ,little objeectionfrom the majority, - I think Ican safely say that a problemis evident.

What if anything can bedone? Before I discuss this anyfurther, might I say that it i snot my wish that each newFrosh class be greeted by ameek and mild atmosphere .

Life on this campus shouldbe vital and vigorous ; both inacademic and extra-curricula ractivities .

However, it is my opinionthat fhe vitality and vigorcould be expressed in a mor emeaningful manner . I am all infavour of Arts-Engineer snow-ball fights and the like .

Yet, I am still waiting forone good reason why such agarbage - containing paper asthe "Moobyssey" f 10 o d s th ecampus .

The abundance of hangoverson Monday mornings, and tale sof pretorian orgies of the past

weekend also indicate a rathe rconfused element in our soci-ety .

On this campus are studentsof foreign nationalities and re-ligions, who form a noticeabl epart of our student body .

They come to Canada becausewe can offer them an educa-tion far above that of their owncountry. Is this education onlyone of facts and figures ?

Do you not think that theyare also able to obtain a closelook at the Canadian society ?Canada is a nation which is inperhaps the best position t olead the world to peace .

Peace can only come wit hthe brotherhood of man. Thisbrotherhood is founded on a nunderstanding love of our fel-low's problems .

What better place to practicethe rule "Love thy Neighbor a sthyself", than on this campus .Fellow students, the time isnow and the place is where yo uare. Take a good look and the nseek the truth . —Rick Higgs

hers of the stronger sex desir-ing these services. The shoeshine was particularly success-ful although some men foolish-ly wore white socks.

At the third executive meet-ing on November 8 there wereseveral motions of interest.

The tentative budget was re-ceived; Frosh colors of blue an dwhite were decided on and amotion was passed to buy ten

sweatshirts in these colors forthe Frosh men's teams.

At the second meeting of al lthe English reps and the execu-tive on November 13, thebudget was passed .

Frosh Week is, of course, thebiggest Frosh-sponsored eventof the year, and enthusiasticmembers of the freshman clas shave been drawing up plans forits program since early in thefall .

The writers of OddysseyThe old FroshOf ancient times ,Wrote of bad men, bad weather, and bad condition sIn bad rhymes . But now,The new FroshOf modern times ,Writes of worse men, worse weather, and worse condition sIn worse rhymes .

Frosh seem to be organized this term . . .

A FASHION SHOW featuring the latest styles i n women's clothing is to be held in Broc kLounge on Wednesday, January 31st from 12 :30-1 :30. Sponsored by Jermaines and moder-ated by Gail Gaildsworthy, the above girls will model sportswear, school and e v e n i n gclothes .

We grew up, boys,how about you ?

13,000 out here are . The remain-ing 2,000 are the engineers .

We suggest that a special by -law be passed, stating that noengineer is to be considered a naverage student, and thereforeshould not have the privilege sof same .

We think that this shoul dhave been done a long time ago .It wasn't, so it might as wel lhe done now before it's too late .

The Frosh grew up in abou tfive months . The engineers havebeen out here for 30 years an dstill haven't done it .

So how about it, boys? Wakeup and behave.

BoysWhile you are eating your

pizza come over to the nort hend of Brock lounge and haveyour shoes 'shined . Yes, thosepretty freshettes will be at i tagain .

The charge for the shine is tobe 10c but you are invited togive more as all proceeds aregoing to the Red Cross .

Medical studentsdiagnose Engs.

Two medical students weregood friends . They got into th ehabit of'meeting at the bus stop .

In order to pass the time, theywould express their opinions t oeach other as to what ailment sa person might be afflicted withby noting the manner of walk-ing, the movements of the body ,the color of the skin, etc .

One morning they saw an en-gineer approaching . He had apeculiar walk . His legs seeme dreluctant to move, and he ap-peared to be assisting his loco-motion by pulling at his pant-leg .

"Rheumatism," said the firs tmedical student .

"Arthritis," -said the second .When the pedestrian cam e

abreast of them the two studentsexplained what they were doingand how they had diagnosed hi scase .

"Well," said the engineer, "allthree of us were mistaken . Ithought at first it was just ga sin my stomach."

The love of youth• A sweet refrain my heart

endures ,It will no longer to thee give

voice ,My love no longer your hear t

procures ,My heart no longer to the e

gives voice .

We will our ways hencefort hto take

And leave behind in life' sgay yout h

Our memories of love fas tbound in fate

And in our lives, loves hurtrebuke .

To live the adventures of ou rdays ,

In finding friends along thetrail s

To whom we may engage i nways ,

In finding if life, love curtails .

Forgive me if I do seem rash ,Now to your heart I must

mine giveAnd hope that in the years

to passYour heart will, all my lbve

forgive .

I used to write ; stories, poems ,articles. Now I wouldn't dare:

I used to read; stories, poems,articles, toothpaste cartons . Iread for my interest, edificatio nand for something to do .

Now, a freshman, I find deep-seated, involved, latent meaningsfor everything. Ah! — the bless-ings of our freshman Englishcourse !

There was a rosy high schoolday when trees were trees ; whena keyhole was a device for open-ing a door . Now? Horrors !

Five months ago an enthusias-tic effortless plunge in the localpool meant, simply, a swim . Nowdaily, millions of people theworld over return to .the womb .Can you imagine the complica-tions?

This strange, malignant dis-ease plays endless havoc with

the naive, freshman mind; the fe-male mind in particular:

Modesty, honesty, individual-ity and thought have been saeri- .ficed on the smouldering bier ofSymbolism .

Sex is the omnipotent god towhich we must all bow . Downwith Sigmund and his hench-men! When we have paid ourhomage to the Deity throughLawrence and Forster, let's tim-idly turn back the pages of timeand worship the artists for theirsimplicity and purity of thought .

Let's hit the freshman classeswith the frankness of EIizabethBarret Browning, or the geniusof Shakespeare .

Let's leave the Symbolism t othe second year students, thosewho have learned through as-sociation and private reading toappreciate the depth of the mod -ern fare which is currently avail-able . Save us a lot of embarrass-ment, too . . .

Frosh haveown colors

Saay . . . do you know wha tour Frosh colors are ?

They've been chosen, here' swhat they mean .

The colors, strangely enough ,are royal blue and white. Blue ?Ah! Blue for Loyalty and Fidel-ity and Truth. True Blue .

White? A more difficult ques-tion. An assembled companyconsidered purity ; quickly re-jected it . Our colors, the sameas that notorious Eastern col-lege, Yale , must have a similarmeaning as theirs -

There's something about aYaleman . . . and there is some -thing about a Freshman. . . .Then we considered chastity .Speedily rejected .

How about light? The light ,beaming, streaming into ourfoggy souls . "Lux et Veritas" ,the Yale motto surely fits ourcheerful group.

i

Early in the year, a Ubysse yeditorial read "Hey Kid" andwas directed at the fresh class .Well, . we seem to have gottenour ;'cordless wonders" out o four ears, and our high-schoo ldeas also .Indeed, most of the high -

school stunts out here seem t obe done by the engineers . .

Snowball f i g h t s, throwingpeople in ponds, and otherthings that one would find theaverage high school student en-gaged in, if their schools per-mitted it .

Or course, the high schools d onot permit it . They know thatthe average student is not grownup enough . to take the respon-sibility.

The average university stu-dent is, at least 11,000 of the

Frosh men msecond place

With the Intramural season atthe half-way mark, Frosh are ,unofficially, second out of 44clubs and undergraduate socie-ties, said Chris Wootten, sportsreporter .

Credit for this achievemen tgoes mainly to the cross-countr yteam . which placed first, theswim team which placed second ,and the first string football tea mled by Jay Brady which placedfifth .

Frosh also placed in the top 1 0in ping-pong singles and tenni sdoubles .

For the future, experience dskiers, golfers, track men and la-crosse players are urged to con -tact any member of the Fros hCouncil .

These events take little timeand are certainly a source ofpleasure to those w.ho take par tin them .

Censored?A debate between the En-

gineers and Frosh is to takeplace in Brock Lounge o nMonday, January 29, at noon .

The topic has not been dis-closed as yet, but it at leastpromises to be hiunorous. Rep-resenting the Frosh are RickHiggs and Caesar Jordan.
