THE $100,000 STENCH Student Union fund Backs S.A. Bookstore
Student Legislative Council · kept in the ·dark by Wayne Gray
The $100,000 plus Student Union building Fund has been used as collateral by day Students' Association President , William Schwartz in purchasing books for the student operated bookstore.
All of t he student leaders quest ioned on the move e xpressed shock that the y had not been approached fo r approval , eithe r on the St uden t Legislat ive Council o r informally .
In a lette r to publ ishing houses on August 18th , Schwa rtz ind ica ted ; " For credit reference, please see the e nclosed lette r from the Un iversity Treasu rer." A photostat of a lette r from Un iversity Trea su rer, Will iam Reay was a ttached .
Reay' s let te r confirmed tha t $74,023 .68 was being held in trust by the University and that some $27 ,000 would be added in the fall. The source of the fund is the $5.00 S.U.B. fund charged all day students
at fall registration . Schwartz and his Students'
Association sit on the Students ' Legislative Council which unanismously approved the bookstore sa le on August
18th. This was three days after Schwartz received Reay' s letter and had the fact s.
The faculty association representatives spoken to exp ressed their concern that
l Student bookstore in trouble ? l The ni versi ty has instructed Bookstore Ma nag er Jack Si Iver
to supply texts to the Student Association bookstore. Last \\eek. amid rumours ol
delayed shipmenb and refusal b) publishing houses to do business ,,ith them. the .A. approached Dr. John O'Brien. Principal. for assistance.
The University agreed to nominally -bail out the S.A. by redirecting some Bookstore stocks. Verbal instruction from Controller Henry Wor rell indicated that Si lv1..,
should check his inventor) and ,end avai lable ·stocks to the student bookstore a, soon as possible.
Dr. O ' Brien , in a Wednesday intervie,,, sai d he hoped to have the entire bookstore situation straightened out ,, ithin three month,. He \\anted to keep the total book stock in line and felt that his action \\US appropriate for the situation.
they were being kept in the dark by the S. A. on several key issues . Reference has been made, several times, to the reported $6000 in salaries members of the S.A. sen io r execut ive pa id themselves this summer w ithout S.L.C. approva l.
The S.U .B. Fund wa s establ ished in 1968 to fi nance arch itects ' fees in a long range plan to build a Student Union Building. To date it seems that the fund has served no other pu rpose than to finance deficits and hastily planned ventu res . It is reported that the fund was used last year to cover a S. A. operating deficit of some $6000. It is not known if this money has ever been ,,.. returned to the fund.
Student, Allan Zweig , piles up books purchased for S.A. Booksale.

Evening Students Association ...gave the U_niversi ty Trea . urer assurances that it "ould guaran tee $1 .+00 in back fees for five day stu

The university had advised La\, rence LuCLko, Robert Killiam, Richard Comer, Gordon Fisher and Vlasta Vrana that they \\ ou ld be denied re-admission.. this year because of unpai d back fees.
Festival Executive Producer, William Con dy then approached , then P resident, Wi lliam O'Ma hony and told him the story.
O 'Mahon , in ·everal letters to Vice Principal J ohn Smola. finally arranged for the backing. and clearance by Sir George.
The Festival of Arts, crippled by high rental
fees for the U niversity T heat re and Alu mni Auditorium, ha had ·a rough time paying o ut a ll sa laries to the sever-al student employees.

Several members of the Executive Council objected to using evening student funds to assist day students in the unive rsity on the grounds that they had thei r O\\ n structure to
apply to. Ho"ever, agreement \,as reached \,hen it "as poin ted out by backers that the Students Associa tion refused to back the Festiva l of Arts la t spring and "ouldn't be receptive to allocating st udent movies to this

E.S.A. moves on constitution Evening students at Sir George have put the final touches
on a constitution after a year of effo rts . The Evening
Students' Association prepared and ratified a thirteen
article document during open voting last week .
Acting President Ross Miles will spearhead its presentation to the Un iversity Council on Student Life this Wednesday.· Subsequently the complete constitution will be mode available to evening students, through The Poper, for study.
A referendum is expected sometime in late October or early November to seek approval of the document. It is also likely that by-elections and several key
issues will be included for evening student rat ification .
Recent reports have attributed the University stand on th e Code of Student Behaviour as due to "student pressu_re". E.S. A. Executive Council members have indicated a desire to seek on evening division consensus on the entire matter, and this and other questions may be included in the referendum.

The booksto·re fiasco Recent events surrounding
the Univer ity Bookstore and the cream-skimming opera.lions of the Student ' As oci ation have created almost total confusion in the University. After t,, o years of committee meetings arising out of the student strike in 1967, day student government ha s once again demon strated its irresponsibility to the community.
The 1967 st rike was precipita ted by the results of a committee \\. hich investigated the bookstore's operations. The screaming. headlines on the October 2~ , 1967 edition of The Georgian - "The Bookstore O\\ es students $90,000", lit the fire that ha s burned b.right to this day.
Since then, a ten member Bookstore Policy Committee, including four students, has deliberated on the main complaints . The main complaints ,, ere the price of books, and subsequently operating profits, and the matter of Time-Life inserts in text books.
AmaLingly enough the question of Time-Life inserts took up over four months of committee time, from December 2, 1967 to May 14, 1968, after ,, hich the members of the committee actually removed the cards themselve~ on l'ytay 21 , 1968. The esoteric reasoning presented for this manoever ,, as
"The point of agitation on this material is that books ,, hich students must purchase should not be used as· a means for advertising Time, Life, or any other magaLine, or any other product for that matter."
"The use of books for advertising is taking unfair advantage of the student..."
The fact that these inserts
bene!itted students by offering reduced st udent rates, and generated commission profits of over $2800 to the overall operation, \Ht ignored ho\\ ever.
On the matter of finances, the committee ha s failed di smally. The self-styled experts on marketing and management in volved themselves in such deci sions as moving trade and author sections to prime di splay areas. The gem has to be Manny Kalles assertive ar:. gument that Manager Jack Silver's officer, being at the front of the building near the entrance, is prime space. Okay so far. Mr. Kalles suggested it be moved and opened up for reta i I sales use. The fact that informed sources indicated that the two insi de walls of his office, if removeµ , would destroy the st ructure, i.e., it ,,ould collapse, didn ' t seem relevant to Mr. Kalles.
On the subject of Manny Kalles, one wonders just where hi s interests lie. Along with last years' Internal VP, Marty Cutler, they present interesting possibilities. All the time he sat on the committee, Kalles did so even though his family o,, ns and operates a bookstore. Marty Cutler, who attended one or more meetings, was actually employed by Classics Bookstore. Classics recently made an unsuccessful bid to take over part or all of the Universities' operations in their drive to monopolize the retai I trade In Montreal.
It raises the possibility of a strong conflict of interest. For instance, what reasons did these people have, other than as student reps, to concern themselves ,,·ith the bookstore.
Back to the story. After a -:Year and a half of
academia, the committee got ,, ith it and consultants arrived
on the scene to take charge. Kalles and hi s equally inept day reps moved a nd seconded the motion on this one.
However, the entire day contingent has withdra\\ n from the committee prior to the tabling of the reports last week.
Why? Well when you set up your o"·n store, you get pretty cocky and decide you don ' t need to be on the un_iversity bookstore committee anymore.
Where's the savings. The new operation by the SA
claims to save students some 15% to 20%.
The fact is that the a-verage is very close to 15%, with several titles reduced less than this.
Pro-rated imputation charges which students pay through their students services fee for space used by the Association amounts to $16,000, which is. deducted from the fee and paid to the University. The space used for the student store actually costs $640. Add to this, costs of warehousing, printing of flyers, rental or acquisition of cash registers etc., and the picture changes drastically.
Not much more can be said, but that day students have avoided their responsibility ; played their sand-box games, and are content. WSG

need a kite to tell them which way the wind is blowing, have been scr~ami ng to the heavens that the Code of Student Behavior should not have been foisted o-n an unawa.re student population in the manner that

it was. We agree. We will even go so far as to question whether the Code was really ever necessary in the first place. Something like locking the barn door after. ..
These very same studepols were the ones that had their hands in up to the elbows when the · Code was being written. So now, all students, including evening students who did not have a representative on the committee that wrote the Code
' are stuck with the thing. And, contrary to false ex
pectations that may have been aroused by written reports that the Cod~ wi ll be recalled next year, it will not be. What will happen is that the Code will still be in effect, but mention of it will be removed from the contract that is signed at registration.
Now, we shall see if these studepols, who were the first to admit that maybe -something is wrong in this community when they are receiving so many protests from traditionally apathetic segments, will get off their hands and represent the wishes of their electorate.
Nov,, that those students who did not have a leisurely hour or so at registration to examine the Code, have bad time to do so, should take the initiative and let their student representatives know what they think about it.
Handing out a fill-in survey to students in the midst of registration, which requests that they give their opinions on the Code, whic:h they have also just been handed, is of dubious value.
A university has always been conceived of as a center of learning, and more recently, rightly or wrongly, as an 1mparter of skills which are of use to the individual or the community.
It has also been assumed that education instills in those being educated the values of the community, along with personal values and ideals.
These include the attribute of self-discipline. , The universi ty that imposes an external Code of Student Behavior cannot have any faith in its ability to instill any values at all in . the student. Or, they should seriously question the pertinence of the values they hold. MSF

Political Science Departement battle shapes up
The Science Students' Association, Evening Science Representative and The Poper hove informally agreed to a combined Air & Water Pollution information program during the next year. Terry Collins SSA President and Roy Cornell of the E.S.A. will spearhead the program.
Details, not yet finalized in.dicote that it will be one of the most comprehensive student run services & Co-curricular programs to be introduced at Sir George.
The sources of finance hove been narrowed down to the Associations and the $20,000 funded Co-curricular committee.
Several p rominent govern -ment, ocedemic .Jnd industrial leaders ore to be included in the series of speeches and panel discussion. The program is expected to run from November to Science week in late January . Extension of the concept is being considered in the initial planning .
Joint effort for pollution seminar This year the Political Science Dept. is pushing for student representatives . An as ·embly
is proposed to include one rep from each class in each divi sion. Subsequent representation 11 ould be achieved by electing three students from the as embly for eats on the department.
A ne,, constitution is no,, being circulated ,1ith some reports that it i being rammed through by class voting before it has been di st ributed and perused.
Ne,,ly appointed Profe sor Hutter has been reported to look upon the concept as providing a basis for an improved pre sure lobby to improve Political Science status in Sir George.
The Evening Students' Association has objected to the system that ,, ould remove departmental representation from their jurisdic-
Lion and control. Acting Presi dent, Ross Miles, ,,as quoted as saying that "We'll fight it a ll the ,,ay."
Meam,hile at least one day student has been urging other Political cience classmates not to go along ,,ith the idea. Apparently Huller tried to ram through a "here and no,1" vote ,, ithout any consideration.
Informed sources say that an internal faculty baule for position ,1ill place pecial emphasis on ,, ho gets control of the student assembly .

The very first time you are in comma nd of an aircraft \\ ithout your friendly meighbourhood instructor ready to grab the co ntrols in the event you make a mi stake is a traumatic experience a nd is remembered throughout your Ii feti me.
As a n instructor. it 1s my responsi bi Ii ty. to decide \\ hen a student is ready to go it a lone, a nd I mu. t send him off a t preci ely the right moment. Should I send him off pre-ma turely. the student is likely to encounter a hairy situatio n a nd co uld lose all his co nfidence: ho11 eve r. a delayed send-off could ha mper the progress of the student. IL mu t be done exactly at the right ins ta nt.

B~d break for Georgian football squad By GREG HARMON
Ross Brooks is a name on ·a lot of people's lips this fall. He's usually mentioned in soft tones with disappointed expressions. Ross stands 5' l i°", weighs in at 200 lbs and is 20 years old. He is well known in football circles for his blazing speed, (40 yard dash in 4.7 seconds) and his ability as a very punishing runner, actually attacking his tacklers.
As a person, he is dedicated, extremely shy and reserved . As a player, he is the type coaches dream about. While out with the "Georgian's" he not only practiced twice a day but worked out on his own weights between practices. With this kind of dedication and his ability, he could have been Sir George's main stalwart in their bid for the league title.
It happened during an afternoon practice in the latter part of the past week. It was his first time out in full equipment and it was just one of those things. He was taking part in what is known as a "Nutcracker Drill" and was somehow hit from the side and a pile-up resulted. Apparently, you could hear his leg "snap" like a big branch .
Everyone knew it was broken but didn't want to accept
the fact. Upon learning that his leg was broken in three places, he is reported to have told the coaches that he hoped that this bad break for him turns out to be a good break for the team, and maybe help to bring it together.
Well, apparently, it has done just that because after it happened, the practice ended and a rather dejected and disappointed bunch of athletes quietly trodded ·to their dressing room .
On Friday, the coaches talked to the players explaining · it was a bad break and they would have to overcome it as a team . Saturday's practice was the best of the year.
This reporter would like to wish Ross Brooks all the good luck in the world as he sure has had his share of rotten luck; and to the football "Georgian's", keep up the great work and win us the league title .
Arts students
set up
Essentially the service is a public relations office which will provide a line of communications between students and industry . Although its prime function is to provide summer· work, A.S .P.S. also hopes to
offer part time employment opportunities.
Students who are interested in working for A.S.P.S. are encouraged to contact Dave Crowell at the A.S.A. .office in Room H-347.
employment agency
After months ot discussion, the president of the AS.A. Eric Adams announced last week that the fir st formal plans for a student employment agency had been final ized.
s·noopies' plans include
open house soon by Joan Rubin
The Sir George Williams University Flying Club (Georgian Snoopies) is looking forward to another successful year.
For those who are not up-todate on the· activities of the Universities canine crew, the club since it's inception in November l 968 has graduated l O private pilots with _several others close to the finish line as of this writing . Over 50 people have achieved their first solo. According to a 'reliable source' from the Royal Canadian Flying Clubs Association, the Snoopies' club is the largest and most successful flying club in Canada.
Flying is done at St. Hubert airport seven days · a week and ground school is held at the university on Friday evenings at 8: 15 in room H-435. People who have a serious interest in learning how to fly are able to save approximately $250.00 in acquiring a private
pilot's license as compared with rates charged by commercial Flying Schools. Ground school, which is offered free of charge, is open to anyone interested in learning more about aviation.
The Snoopies will have a display and a booth on the mezzanine during orientation week (Sept. 15-19) and will be glad to provide furthur information and (of course) sign up new mert,bers.
There will be an open house at St. Hubert airport on September 27 in order to show people "where its at" : furthur details to follow at a later date. For more· information, contact the Chief Flying Instructor, Herb Bernstein, at 861-
5878 or come to the Snoopy Kennel (Room H-643).
The service will operate a s a function of the A.S.A. and will be known as A.S .P.S. - Arts Student Placement Service. David Crowell is director of the new office and his assistant will be announced in the near future .
ARE YOU BLINDFOLDED TO 'DIE
A committee of advisors will be established to help co-ord inate the program and will include men and women from the business and academic world . It is hoped that evening students who are affiliated with local companies will lend their support to the advisorary group .
Each year arts students are faced with the gigantic task of finding summer employment . More and more students are available each spr ing and an increasing percentage never find adequate o r suitabfe work . To Georg ians, the problem is acute, a s they must compete with students from other local uni vers1t1es. Business and indust ry have absorbed the greater portion of potential science, commerce and engineering graduates, but the capabilities of arts students have yet to be real ized .
In July 1968 Dick Pomerantz started such a service at McGill. That organization developed into the McGill Student Entrepreneurial Agency and has obtained jobs for over 500 students. M.S.E.A. anticipates securing over $75 ,000 in student salaries during the forthcoming academic year alone.
A student placement service has proven that it can work effectively in the Montreal area, and at last progress is being made toward creating a job agency at Sir George.
