Result Of I.S.S. Drive Disappointing

• THE GOVERNMENT at UBC 's coming Mock Parliamentwill consist of a coalition of Liberals and Progressive

Conservatives . The election, in Arts 100 on Wednesday, re-sulted in a clear majority for the Prog .-Cons ., but they hadaf'eeady planned a coalition and intend to go through with it .

Dance, Game

To ProvideClimax Fri.• THE ISS DRIVE to date

has been "very, very dis-appointing" according t ochairman Harry Penny .

So far only about $450 o fthe $1200 needed has beencontributed, despite the efeforts of a small army o fworkers. "Students simplyhaven't come across," statedPenny when interviewe dyesterday .

In the penny drive both Artsand Science have managed toroach the &clean building, withthe Artsmen slightly in the leado far. The battle isn't over ye t

by any means, however, and allstudents are urged to get out andsupport their faculties, as well asthe persecuted students overseas .CLIMAX

An auction to support the driveIs being held at noon today inthe quad. The big feature of the1!S program is the basketballgameeend dance tonight.

The game is between VanityThunderbirds and the DomWantthempioa Pat Bay "Gremlins" .This is the third time the twofeat have met this season, andVarsity will be out to avenge itstwo prevlow defeats.

The gam will be followed by sdose In the Brock from nine toam. The music will be providedby Dan McLelland and Ids Varsit yDance Orchestra .

Tickets for the basketball gam eand dance can be secured at thebox office in the quad on presenta-tion of the white ISS tag, whichcosts an extra fifty cents afterbuying the yellow tag.

For those who have not boughtwhite tags, single tickets to thegame and dance can be bought forfifty cents .NON-EVERYTHING

The white tag will be punchedand given back . All tags shouldbe worn to the dance. The un-fortunate person who forgets histag will undoubtedly be mobbedby the Phrateres, who will con-tinue to sell tags at the game, an dalso at the dance .

The drawing for the "car of thefuture" will be held at the dance.The car is complete with kneels..action, no clutch (no fluid driv eeither) and an ultramodern non-combustion (non-everything elsetoo) engine. Only the latest typesof plastics, string, and chewinggum have been used in its con-struction.

Certain graduates of honourscourses in Science, when applyin gfor positions, have found muchdifficulty in explaining the signi-ficance of their degrees . Opinionprevails that Science at UBC I srestricted to the faculty of Ap-plied Science .

Students affected by the peti-tion are persons who are honour-ing or taking a double major inany two of the departments ofpure sciences. Former graduate scould also be readmitted as Bach-elors of Science, provided theyhave fulfilled the requirements,upon payment of their graduationfee and surrender of their Batch-elor of Arts diploma .

Previous to the election, repre-sentatives of the three parties out -lined their platforms to the elec-torate .

that a separate Faculty of Scienc eshould be established. Degrees aregiven In Commerce, Home Econ-omics and Education without sep -arate faculties for each; and elevenof the twelve Canadian universitieswhich confer the degree of Bache-lor of Science do not have sucha separate faculty.

Most of the faculty members inthe departments concerned haveexpressed their approval of theestablishment of such a degreeat UBC, It was revealed by aspokesman for the students .

The petition, when fully signed,must first go before th- Senateof the university, which will nex tmeet on February 16, before anyfurther action can be taken .

Lee` Raphael, in appealing fo rsupport for the Liberals, pointedout that the French problem wasthe most important problem inCanada today, and insisted that theLiberals were the only party whichcould claim to have the confidenceof the people of Quebec .IMPERIALISM

Waterproof PantsDraw Complaintse WASHINGTON — The offic e

of civilian requirements isgetting more complaints about th equality of wartime water-proofbaby pmts than any other civilianitem.

—NEWS-HERALD

Engineers will invade the Pub againnext Monday to conceive for all our faithfulreaders the red and fantastic issue of theUbyssey. For those students who are ne wto the campus, we feel it is only fair towarn them in advance of what is liable toleap out at 'them from the esteemed pagesof their paper next Tuesday.

The science issue is that one becaus eof which every editor lives in fear andtrembling for four weeks . The first twoweeks are fearsome because of anticipationof what may happen to the Ubyssey ; the lasttwo weeks are terrifying because we areawaiting the news that we and the pape rare jointly suspended .

c

Some practically minded people on th ecampus have been circulating ia petition re-questing that the degree conferred on stu-dents of the "pure" sciences be change dfrom that of Bachelor of Arts to Bachelorof Science.

These students maintain that confusio narises among the people who hire thesegraduates who now receiVe the Bachelor ofArts degree, in that they do not realize tha tthey have had a scientific training at theuniversity.

There is the other argument that thedegree might be confused with that of Bach-elor of Applied Science, but these student sseem to prefer to be confused with engineers

The Mummeryrt>1B UPPER BERTH

How to Gain Complete Mastery of the

Upper Berth ,

.

• AS A RESULT of my long and bounce yassociation with the Upper Berth, ! have

been able to evolve an experimental theorywhich, in the opinion of many authorities ,throws a bombshell into the whole compli-cated science of dressing in an upper. Thiswork is to appear soon in the scientific bro-chure, "The Gallileo Guardian", and is en -titled, "A Method, with Variations, for theHorizontal Investiture of Habiliments in th eSepulchrous Alterior, or 'Upper Berth' . "

The highlight of this formidable attemp tto cut down the appalling loss of life i nupper berths is my work on the "HighArch", or "London Britches Falling Down"system of donning nether accoutrements, o rpants . I have discovered, (not without per-sonal inconvenience in self-experimentationwhich should, I thing, merit the Nobel Pri7. eor at least a good second-hand set of ribs) ,I have discovered that there is one and on eonly truly efficient method of putting o ntrousers in an upper berth . , I make this as-sertion with full knowledge of Dr. Elf Moon -glow's classic work on this subject ("YouDon't Know What You Are, Do You?", p .358 inclusive) . Dr. Moonglow's theory, whichhas been accepted in the past merely be-cause it was a classic and had won the GoodHousekeeping Seal of Approval, is, no doubt ,an admirable and thorought work in somerespects . But, in other respects, in thehumble opinion of this writer, it stinks .

For instance, Dr . Moonglow says ,"When applying trousers or britches in anUpper Berth, it has been found wisest toabandon the project before the gyrationsand shouted invective involved have inciteda general panic." The italics are my own .The dangling participle is Dr . Moonglow's ,and on him it looks good .

Now, although my esteemed colleagu ehas advised against attempting , to put onone's legwear in an upper berth, it must b eobvious to the close observer, like you orme, that the rat makes no attempt whateve rat a solution of the problem, cold-bloodedlyabandoning the half-dressed victim in hi supper without his trousers on, and proceed-ing with an irrelevant, albeit learned, dis-cussion on the Ethics of the Albino Monkey .This is, I believe, defeatism at its worst, or,as my associate, Dr . Randolph Dung, puts it ,"This is, I believe, defeatis mat is worst "(Dung, R. What Every Young Sleeping CarConductor Should Know, Sixty-ninth re -vision, p. 169-173) . What Dr. Moonglow issuggesting is that the passenger clamberdown from his upper in his shorts, waivin gpropriety in favour of appeasement . This is ,of course, the sort of thing that breeds wars .

Now, my theory, the "High Arch ", or`"London Britches Falling Down" method ofdonning britches, is simple, yet dignified .Naturally, I cannot go into the details of thi stheory as they are still secret, but I ca noffer an outline of the technique which I

However, so far we have escaped thisfate, and we have almost every hope that wecan do so this year again .

The Science Issue is filled with rathe rsoiled jokes, suggestive features, and a fe wserious articles about matters of momen tsuch as the Science Ball. All in all, it isnot a bad issue, and we welcome back tothe Pub the engineers for their annua leruption into print . Besides, it means wehave a holiday for a day.

The object of this filler in the first threecolumns, page two, is to emphasis the fac tthat Issue 30 is not of our concoction, eithe reditorially or factually . The opinions to be'expressed are not those of the regular staffof the Ubyssey .

than with liberal artsmen.Many graduates with honours in pur e

science have found difficulty in obtainin gjobs in labs because of the misleading degre eof Bachelor of Arts, Employers often d onot understand the system of majors andminors and are suspicious of a student'sclaim to hold an Arts degree and yet bequalified in scientific subjects .

There has been no attempt to have aseparate department of pure science begunat the university. The majority of Canadianuniversities which now offer the degree ofBachelor of Science do not have such aseparate department .

not get on your pants in an upper .(N,B.:It must be noted at this juncture thatthe theory here presented has been worke dout for male subjects only . My experimentswith females in uppers have, hereto, beenrendered somewhat inaccurate by the ele-ment of overcrowding, as well as by porter swho do not recognize the scientific approachwhen they see it . I shall, however, repeatmy experiments indefinitely until I haveachieved complete success, and have con-vinced myself that, as far as dressing th efemale in an upper berth is concerned, noth-ing has been left undone . To every man hislife work, End of N.B . )

To continue . The first movement of the"High Arch" method is simply that of swing-ing the legs up from a lying position, intilthey are at right angles to the body. It willbe found easier to do this when lying on theback. There are some who claim to prefe rlying on the stomach, but in all my experi-ments the subjects have tended to suffocatein the pillow. This is undesirable .

Now, with the legs at right angles to th ebody, the shorts, If any, and trousers ar edropped in turn over the feet. To do this ,it will be necessary to swing up the forepart of the body, at the same time bringingthe feet down into an inverted crouch possstion. It is at this point that your wallet slip sout of your pants pocket, falling into th ecorridor with a musical tinkle of loosechange.

We'll wait for you while you try to getsomebody to hand it up to you .

Now that you have regained your wal-let, minus a certain amount of loose change ,we can proceed with the procedure . Thetrousers' are now hanging, inverted, on yourlegs. This is the point at which all the oldertechniques leave off, and at which the rea lbeauty of the "High Arch" method is to b eseen to the full . The subject now straightensout the legs, and slowly arches the body,until it is resting on the heels and the to pof the head, with the 'stomach as the hig hspot on the crescent . The trousers are the mseized by the hands and whisked over th eposterior in a twinkling . With time andpractice, it is possible to become sufficientl yadept at the "High Arch" to not only drawon shorts and trousers, but also tuck inshirt and sweater . The ability to do this is ,of course, the touch of the master, and th ebeginner must not be overly ambitious a tfirst, or he will break his silly back .

I strongly recommend, also, that allthose who will be living a fuller life, thank sto my "High Arch" theory, be on the aler tfor my next work, "How to Drink Orang eJuice While Travelling Through Norther nOntario". It's a killer.

AT THE CLOSE of the last war, Nickel wasno longer needed to build battleships an dartillery. The demand for Canadian Nicke lfell off sharply . Soon the Canadian Nicke lmines had to close down .

But the men who managed these propertiescould foresee possible new markets forCanadian Nickel in the growing auto-mobile, electric, radio, chemical and othe rindustries. They organized a Research an dDevelopment department to work withengineers in these industries, and to pro-mote the use of Nickel and its alloy swherever better materials were required.

Shortly, operations were resumed. In1924, the Nickel industry opened a ne wmine. In 1926 it began enlarging

its smelting and refining plants . Within adecade it was paying out 15 millions ofdollars a year in Canada for wages .

Although the entire output of CanadianNickel is today diverted to waruses, this industry has definit eplans for the post-war period.

Then it will turn again to itspeacetime markets, and willproceed to develop new mar•kets based on research no win progress. Through itsown enterprise, the Can-adian Nickel industryplans still greater contri-butions to Canada ' s

time referee "Gummy" Leach will blast his whistle for th etip-off of a stupendous basketball contest between the twotop teams of the province.

• ArmageddonDear Chas :

How in the hell are you? Believe me, chum, it sure isgood to be back on the Campus . But, quite frankly, old man,things just ain't the same . I hate to admit it, but I must sa ythat I feel more at home in a one and only Eastern Canadianport .

During the past few months, I've come across dozens offormer UBC etudes . If you will bear with me, let's reminisceawhile, Remember Jack Stevenson, one of UBC's best Treas-urer's, now a C .O. of one of Canada's fighting ships .

Just two years ago President Ted McBride was doing hi sstuff for his old Almy Mater—still at the top and doing dam ngood work .SMOOTH CHARACTERS

Remember that smoothie Tom Crone and Jack Creighton—well they are just as smooth as ever and improving ever yday. When a guy can get three dates for one dance, takeone gal, the other two turn up with last minute guys, and hecan still keep peace—believe me, that's good .

Then there are several Phi Delt characters who areblushing furiously from the results of this year's rushing—1ton McBride, Don Pearson, Al Shore, Johnny Long, Boy dCrosby, Jim Dawson, Hugh Ritchie and Brian Chew.

Helen's little boy Al will probably undoubtedly be com-ing home with a handkerchief up his 'sleeve and a fewcheerio's and a couple of 'by Jove's', while Joyce's little bo yHugh will arrive with a ship-load of salty dips as only Hug hwill be able to tell them .IT BAYS HERE

' he Beta's are represented by a really fine bunch o ffellows, such as Jack Cunningham, Dave Williams, an dJohnny Nicholls.

The inimitable Inman brothers have finally been separat-ed. Std but true! Harry is wooing the gals on an island offthe east coast of Canada, while Bill is continuing to keepthe Bluenoales amused.

I met Cliff Hill one night. Ah, yes, Cliff L such a niceboy—diver drinks, smokes, swears, or even thinks of goingout with girls .

Aw nuts, let's have a rum and coke, Chas,

While Varsity I. taking care ofEx-Byng, the UBC team la featur-ed on the campus in an exhibitiongame with St. George, St . Georgeand UBC have met several timesthis season, always in exhibitionmatches, and have worked up ukeen state of rivalry between thetwo clubs.UPPERCLASSMEN FORVARSITY

The teams will be a little dif-ferent than they were before theMoKecbnle Cup play finished lastweek. Instead of Validly beingmade up of the choice players andthe UBC being made up of thenext best Varsity will be com-posed of upper claanen and UB Cwill consist of freshmen .

The upper class team has power

hl the strength of some of theindividual members. Doug Reid ,John Wheeler, George Rush, Ger-ry Lockhart, and Bill Wallace ar esome of the fellows Who will pro-vide plenty of punch all throughthe line up.

What the freshmen lack in ex-perience and ability they willmake up in quantity . The turnout of the freshmen this year hasbeen exceptionally good.

Some of the players who wil lback up the UBC team and wh ohave made a name for themselvesin the Thunderbird team are :John Simm, Bob Lawson, KeithMacDonald, Bill Redpath, and JoePequis . These kids have plenty offight and are hard to defeat inspirit and probably in force.THIRTEEN MEN

Thirteen men will be used dur-ing the spring campaign but twosubstitutes will be allowed ifdeemed necessary. A new Idea topeople who follow the game onthis section of the globe is theNew Zealand Kick Rule . Thisrule states that the ball mustbounce before it goes out ofbounds if the player expects togain any yardage out of hisefforts .

If the players take this rule toheart and work it down to a fineart the game will be considerablybettered and speeded up in thefield plays.
