Anniversary '

Of Pub. Boards

Single Sheets

Yesterday was an anniversary o fnote in the annals of the Publica-tions Board . On February 13 of lastyear and of the year before last caneout the one-page special editions ofthe Ubyssey ; and the first one wason a Frldayl

On Friday, February 13, 11131, Bes-sie Robertson, Hinds Koshwoy,Edgar Brown published a singlesheet on which were letters from th epresident, dealing with the suspension♦off Ronald Grantham, then editor~~ ~o fhe Uby sey, The streaming heads

lines announced : "PRESIDENT SUS-PENDS GRANTHAM; UBYIS YSUSPENDS PUBLiCATION ."

This marked the beginning of daysin which no Ubyaaw greeted theeyes of milling Students on Tuesdayand Friday noon.; days in whichhurried emergency meetings werecalled in the Pub, office, in whichthe corpse of Free Speech was laidout In state, garlanded with lilies sen tby a sister university . Eventuallythe difficulties between the Boardand the authorities were straightene dout, however, and the Ubyssey func-tioned anew under the editorship ofHimie Koshevoy.

In the following year the 13th ofFebruary fell on a Saturday, the Sat-urday after the first day of the BigCampaign. A special one-sheet "Cam-paign Extra Edition" of the Ubysseywas prepared, complete with reports ,editorial, and cartoon. It was thislast which caused the trouble endin gin the suppression of the extra edi-tion . The caption held an unfortun-ate and quite unintentional referenc eto an accident which the Ministe rof Education had suffered at thetime, and it was thought that hemight take offense. The material inthe suppressed edition came out ina later issue, with a more innocuou stitle.

Anddidn't we all used to go to the neigh-borhood store and demand "3 Dartsworth" ate waxtra fancy Valentines 'please ." Little boys blushing fur-iously, little girls giggling joyfully-ah, Happy Days!

Long ago, St . Valentine's Day usedto be dear to the hearts of all youth .In this day and age the names of allthe virgin daughters of Rome wereput in a box, and the young Romanboys drew names from it. To thegirl he drew, he was obliged, to offera gift, and the two were therebypartners for the feast. (Wonder ifthere were any sweepstakes?) O fcourse, the motive behind this wasthat the two should remain partner sfor life.

Wonder if we could dramatize theabove ancient history, in the bestlanguage of 400 &C. ?

SCIENCE SPIRIT

The way in which the Scienoemen came t othe rescue of the Alma Meter Ball and sup -

plied decorations deserves some mention.Way back last fall when the social program

was discussed, there was considerable talk oflack of University spirit, but the action of themen of science in this respect, precludes any

doubt that University spirit is not only present

but active .We have watched with considerable inter-

est the course of events, and are happy to beable to say that we compliment the ScienceMen's Undergrad for the co-operation theyhave shown in this matter.

STADIUM RUMOUR S

DEBATING GOES OVER THE TOP

LOCAL POET MAKES GOOD

If there is a plural number of confirmedreaders of the Litererary Supplement of theUbyseey, they will remember the little poemswhich used to appear in it two or three year sago above the cryptic signature "Y. J."

The anonymity of this poet was so jealouslyguarded that not even the Literary Editorknew who it was, but News Managers kno weverything, and this one recognized an oldcontributor in the new Poet Laureate of Kno xCollege, Toronto .

"Young Jimmy" did many things in his fiveyears4bere, but the one most warming to a lateLit . Ed.'s heart was his habit of sending in abundle of good stuff just as she was on theverge of not having enough poetry to go topress with ,

I shall scoop my friend "Apes" by quqtinga poem of Y. J's which appeared in the Liter•ary Supplement and the Totem of 1930.

AN EPITAPHWonderingly he lived, and gathered stones ,and smelled the perfume of the flowers ;jdyed and pained in all these thing sand reaching for the stars he ble dnot to be content with those he gathered .

"THAT LITTLE SUNNY SMILE THATHELPS"

While I was at it I delved into the '3 0Totem in search of copy, but was sated withthe write-ups, which were abolished last year .I remember how the "sunny smiles" used toswarm into the ' Editor's office by the scoreevery morning at about this time of year . Thewarm weather brought them out, I think, (Inthose days we had warm weather as well asmoney.) Every senior in the universitysported one, judging by the eulogies whichtheir friends turned in . Possibly that is an-other thing which the Depreaion has .doneaway with, and one good reason for thagkin gthe gods for the Depression.

I usually keep carefully concealed, along withmy other Lit .-Editorial proclivities . My friendsscold me when they come out.

But I prefer my ontology undiluted withfiction, as well as the other way around. Afterall, a novel should not be a treatise, and whenIt is a dull treatise, the sin is the blackeragainst the canons of art as well as meta-physics.

0 -0AND AGAIN

As to its being regrettable that D. R. is onthe side of the majority of the reviewers, I donot see that is so at all. I might retort that itshows a lack of independent thought, but Ishall not, for I am sure that it is not so . Thereview is an admirable one, but I could nothesitate to disagree with it, even if by so doingI put myself in the critical minority.

Concerning mine being a purely feminineattitude, two very able masculine judges hav eagreed with me on the subject of "The Foun-tain." One of these is a member of the Eng-lish Department, the other I know to be thor-oughly grounded in metaphysics .

q — 0

INTELLIGENCE AND VITRIO L

"The only intelligent woman in fiction"—I fear that here my respected opponent was alittle carried away by the warmth of his feel-ings. I did not see enough of his heroine t ojudge if she was intelligent or not, but I amsure that in the wide realms of literature on ecould find more than one of those unappealin gcreatures, provided that one wanted to.

Personally, I think that the epithet "intelli-gent" as applied by a man to a woman is thesecond most damning one possible to conceive .The first, of course, is "efficient." Believe me,a woman scorned has absolutely nothing on awoman thus anathematized .

q — 0

FINALEWell, to get back to colloquials for th e

Thirty; if I have to sit through, or dancethrough, Harry Hill's rendition of "Pink Ele-phants" once more in my young and practicallyunblighted career, there will be one sane col-umnist the less on what a recent correspondentunkindly designated "The Ubbsey ." Which willvery likely be a Good Thing .

events .

Next Friday the committee which has beenexamining the expenditure of money on theStadium will report to the Alma Mater So-ciety.

We wish to warn students to weigh care -fully everything that will be said in the re-port of this , committee . Although there is nodefinite news as to what the committee willsay in its report, it is safe to say that some -

body 's toes are going to be stepped on .Stepping on toes is liable to degenerate

into mud-slinging, and every care must betaken by the students in general to see to itthat only legitimate mud sticks--a very hardthing to do when gumbo is flying freely .

We are asking for a hard thing when weask the students to consider the evidence whichwill be presented without any personal bias .They should be dealing with facts, in a factual ymanner: insinuations and , inuendos will betaboo .

The recommendation of the ParliamentaryForum that Victor K. Dryer's name be sub-mitted to the N . F. C . U. S. for considerationfor .a Canadian debating team to tour GreatBritain comes as a welcome surprise .

For the past two years the forensic art o nthe campus has been steadily improving, anddebating has reached the position of hono rwhich it deserves.

It is heartening to think that one of ourown men will possibly have the opportunity t orepresent Canada to our brothers over theAtlantic.

Good luck, Vic!

Editor, Ubyssey ,Dear Slr :

On Wednesday some thirty odd stu-dents will run in the Relay Race,The speed of any individual in die •tance running is limited by his abil -ity to take oxygen from the air--orlung power.

There is nothing so distressingwhen running at a pace not far shortof a sprint than to have a liberalsupply of motorian exhaust fumesIn the air.

I feel sure I am voicing the wishof every contestant when I suggestthat drivers remember this, and kee pjust behind a runner or gather speedbefore passing, ease off the gas asthey lass, and keep at least fiftypaces in front when they do get by.

Thy' usual proceedure is car aftercar creeping by in continuous suc -cession, each leaving an atmosphereviolently offensive to the runner .This Is particularly true uphill, when ,awing to the gradient the car is pos -itively churning out exhaust gasses ,(usually in second gear), and thepoor runner it positively dying formore and more better air .

Something new has been inaugur•sled at the Library. Miss Smith, theReference Librarian, has selected ashelf of books for general reading tobe at the service of the student bod yin general. These books will bepartly fiction and partly for refer-ence purposes, but they are all o fgeneral interest, being selected fromthe stacks in consideration of thelower•cliw students who dosnbt hav epersonal access to the stacks. "I oftenfeel," Miss Smith stated, "that th estudents of the lower classes wouldlike to read these books if they onlyknew how to obtain them." In viewof this, a number of suitable bookshave been selected and will be keptat the Reference desk . They are tobe charged out at the Loan Desk i nthe ordinary way.

In order to keep the student bod yinformed as to new books in the Li-brary, Miss Smith will add newbooks to the shelf as they becomeavailable. Some books of this typeare expected to be available whenthe Carnegie 'Grant is utilised. Itis felt that this shelf will fill a needfor recreational reading long felt bythe students.

Says Stud~

Alma Mammy was, no doubt,' bothsuirls2d and pleased to see so manyrevellers on deck for her big celebra-tion Friday night, The Crystal Ball .room was a brilliant scene—brightlights and mirrors, and a thousan dcolours moving to the rhythm ofLen Chamberlain's mulls.

It was not hard to guess who ar-ranged the decorations, the moststriking of which was a huge shieldwith a Science stripe across It--eventhe programs had a red strip alongwith the blue and gold! All aroun dthe room were lighted boxes depict-ing the various lines of higher learn-ing, mostly in a scientific line, butthere actually was a modest sceneto one side assigned to Arts and an.other to Agriculture .

For a night one and all forgot tha tthey were shy, suppressed students,and 'tie rurrloured that brigands at -tacked Dr. Sedgewick in the shadow'of Peacock Alley—revenge is sweet

Even this depression did not dis-courage the invincible Science men ,and a real, honest-to-goodness sit-down supper was served, the rollcourse of which could have discour-aged any self respecting goat .

A home waltz which changed itsmind half way through and becamea fox-trot was an appropriate final eto the evening.

Patrons for the occasion wereChancellor and Mrs. McKechnie ,Dean and Mrs. Buchanan, Dean andMrs . Clement, Dean Boiled, ActingDean and Mrs. Turnbull, Dr. Sedge-wick.

N"The fate of literature note with

the youth of today, in particular wit hthose college students interested inthe pursuit of literature," is in par tthe declaration of Alerdyce Nicoll ,professor of English Literature atthe University of London. The state-ment was the result of an interviewwith Dr. Nicoll, by the ColumbiaSpectator, New York City, and theinterview was reprinted In the Mc-Gill Daily on Monday, January 20 .

The following day the Doily ralliesround with its literary column, "Ran-dom Verse ." From one of the poemsI extract a verse :

. . . brute dullness. Far off yell .Noise. Urges. Water smell.Lap. Taste. Spit . Smell. Loud yell.Crunchy roots. Meat .Loud hare's yell . Breeze . Taint air .Run. Meat . Yell. Prone white hare.Yelling. Meat. Snare . Meat . Snare.Touching. Twitching. Eat. "

And literature is saved for anotheryear.

I admit that the above exerpt i sunfair, since it is the climax of animpressionistic poem, however suchan opportunity knocks but once .

The Hermes-Salt Shaker tells u sthis: "Brevity is the soul of modernjournalism . A young journalist wastold to never use" (oh, oh, split in-fhni,$ive) "two words where one woul ddo . Here was his report on a fata laccident :'John Jones struck a match to see i fthere was any gas in his car. Therewas. Age sixty-five'. "

"Book hunting is a sport requiringknowledge, money, persistent search-ing and lots of luck," declared Mr .R. L. Reid, K.C., in his address tothe Vancouver Institute held in Art s100 on Saturday night. The subja tof the lecture was "Canadians froma Collector's Standpoint ."

In the term Canadians he includedbooks about Canada as well as thosewritten by Canadian authors, Thereare about 100,000 volumes in thesetwo classes—enough too satisfy th emost rabid collector .

Fifteen years ago collectors ofCanadian books were almost un-known, therefore prices were exceed-ingly low and within the reach ofthe most modest purses. Now how-ever, American book dealers showan increasing interest in Canadianbooks and their competition hasraised the prices,

Mr. Reid owns one of the largestlibraries of Canadians on the con-tinent. Ito advised prospective col .lectors to profit by mistakes andstudy the book catalogue. UM col.lotting is not too expensive provid-ing first folios of Shakespeare arenot daubed . , A collection of Can-adian books offers a wide scope forbeginners and every year more andmore Canadians are becoming moreand more interested in their Can-adian collections.

"Assoclation books," or' these auto.graphed by the author are the big-gest prises a collector can get," saysMr. Reid . .,

Title StaysAt Varsity

Lacey Is B. C. JuniorChampion

Young Oliver Lacey added anotherbrilliant feather to his plumed hatover the weekend, when he won theB. C. Junior Badminton title on theVancouver Club Courts .

Lacey's opponent, Ian Russell ofNorth Vancouver, who entered thefinal by defeating Paul Kozoolin, th edefending champion, gave him athrilling three-set match and wen tdown fighting after leading 12-10 inthe deciding canto. The scores 15-10,12-15, 15-12 reflect the close nature ofthe play. The issue was never cer-tain, but Lacey's tournament exper -

Today and Thursday, Varsity's an-nual Tournament will be staged inthe gym. Some of the preliminarieswets played last night, but at thistime the results are not known .However, from general indications,the elan of badminton will be atleast as high as in for mer years. Allmembers of the first team have en-tered the competition, which factalone ought to guarantee a goodstandard of play. The handicapevents have received their share ofpatronage, all of which spells successfor the Tournament.

Much speculation is rife as to theultimate winner of the Men's OpenSingles. Ken Atkinson, the presenttitleholder, and Oliver Lacey appearto be the main threats, but there isalways the possibility of upsets. Thesetwo, paired together, should win theMen's Doubles .

Tennis TourneyTo ResumeTilden To Play Here

Of interest to the tennis players o fthe University\ Is the report that playin the annual -tournament is to beresumed shortly . At present, thecourts are covered with a layer ofsnow, but this is to be removed, an dnext week should see most of th eVarsity net stars getting in shape.

Very little play was done last term,and so most of the tournament hasyet to be played . As the executiv emember of the Club are desirous o fhaving the tournament completed b ythe middle of next month, they ar esoliciting the co-operation of everycompetitor.

In the Women's division, no match -es have been played, and Reg Price,President of the Tennis Club, ha sobtained several girls names throughthe Publicity Bureau, whom he willnotify of another and final chanc eto enter the competition.

Equally interesting to Varsity Ten-nis fans is the news of a visit tothe city by William T. Tilden, U, andhis professional troupe next month ,The Tennis maestro will engage i nno less than three three-set matchesat the Horseshow Building on Marc h8. Efforts are under way to get areduction of the admission price forVarsity students, and the results willbe disclosed In a future issue .

Commerce BanquetFeatures Battle '

Thirty-five budding business grad-uates attended a Commerce Clubbanquet and smoker combined, stagedin the Aztec Room of the Hotel Geor-gia on Thursddy night last, and weretreated to some first class wrestlingand boxing on the part of membersof the club . Two exciting wrestlin gexhibitions and one boxing bout com-pleted the athletic part of the even-ing's entertainment, and these' wereall staged in an improvised ring inthe middle of the floor.

Harold Andrews and Ralph Jor-gensen jabbed, tackled and hammer-locked each other into submission infour rounds, and as neither couldface the bill at the start of the fifth,It was called a draw. The other mai nevent was a bruising affair betweenversatile Sid Swift and husky Frank

thrills enough to merit a long-ter mcontract from impresario Emil Klank.A series of flying tackles, shoulderbutts, and a pseudo-airplane spin bySwift landed that gentleman on hisback, but Thorneloe was unable to ,finish him off. In the last round,Frank clamped on a Boston crab an dit vicious toe-hold, both of whichwebs easily broken by Swift, andfrom then on till the final gong thefight was even.

A scheduled six-round boxingmatch between Bill Stott and Coe.Brennan lasted only two rounds, onthe earnest plea of both contestants,but the judges for some reason o rother gave the decision to Brennan ,who appeared to be freshest at thefinish . Profs. Angus • and Day, Mr .field and Mr. Collins were judges;Gordon Stead acted as time-keeper;Houston and Moyes officiated as sec-onds; and Stott and Andrews altern-ated as referee. Throughtout theevening betting continued at a briskpace, and quite a lot of money wa sseen to change bands.

In the Women's events, Irene Ram -age, a former titleholder, seems asafe bet for the Open Singles . Pairedwith Hope Palmer, she should alsomake a strong bid for the Doublestitle, A third final in which sheshould figure is the Mixed Doubles,in which she is playing with KenAtkinson .

Although Arts '34 have a sligh tedge in the betting, the possible out -come of the race is in the laps ofthe sods, who have been known to ,play fickle tricks on innocent man -kind . However, Science '33 and '34,and Aggies, last year's winners, areall determined to show the way tothe . finishing line, and base theirpredictions, not on favour of thegods, but en their own merits. Inaddition, Anglican College, Arts '35and Commerce should be in the figh tall the way.

Lap by Lap BroadcastUnder the auspices of the Pep club ,

who are cooperating with the Trackand Field club In the preparationsfor this event, a megaphone broad -cast will be carried on from the Stu -dents' Council room, throughout thewhole race. A Pep Club car willtelephone in to Varsity running re-sults during the race, and these willbe duly transmitted to the expectantpublic in the Quad below. First re -suits should come through the wiresshortly after 3 :30, and considerablestudent interest is anticipated to b emanifest by that time .

Course In DetailStarting at 12th and Willow, the

runners proceed, (in confident man-ner) to Pine, where they exchang ethe batons, and the second contin-gent are off. The third lap, which i sa block or two shorter than any o fthe others, starts at 12th and Larch ;and the fourth, the longest in therace, at 4th and Collingwood . Prob-ably the toughest lap of them all ,that which includes the 4th ave . hill,is the fifth, which starts in front o fthe Institute for the Blind building.

Tony Osborne and his teammates camethrough with their fifth successive win in Bur »rand League basketball fixtures Saturdaynight, when they downed the scrappy Prov.into entry 2822 in the V.A.C. gym.

With this victory behind them the stu-dents have now a chance of seduring a tie forfirst place when they meet the league-leadin gSparling team at V,A.C. tomorrow night.These teams have played two games this sea -son, and as each team has* win, Wednesday'sbattle should provide_ plenty of excitement .

Varsity Has Edge in First HaltAlthough the game had its excit-

ing moments, the brand of ball ex-hibited was not up to the standardof either team . For minutes at atime one or both of the teams got"panicky" and managed to do every-thing wrong and neither the Newel'snor Varsity displayed the punch an ddetermination that makes a realstruggle . Varsity outscored Province10 .10 in the first half, but were out-scored 9-11 after the rest period.

Tony Osborne ImpressesBob Osborne, guard and captain o f

the Blue and Gold squad came infor a big share of the spotlight, andplayed a consistent fast and aggres-sive game, to score 9 points, and geta good percentage of rebounds. KenWright stayed right with his cap-tain and also garnered 9 points fo rhis Alma Meter .

U.B.C . Steps Right OutOsborne started out in grand style

right from the start and netted twoquick baskets in a row to give hi steam a four point lead . Nicholsonconverted a foul and Tony got hi sthird basket before Province made afree shot, to bring the score to 7-1.

Then for about three minutes Var-sity went "berserk," or blind — orsomething. Passes went wild andset-ups were missed, as the whol etam seemed in a due, and allowedtwo baskets against them .

Rana Matthison cams In for Nlo-holson (Ken Wright going to centre )and pepped thlnp up with a basket .Hooker Wright battled one in fromunderneath a moment later to makethe score 11-5.

During the rest of the period BobOsborne made a free throw andHooker and Matthison each got abasket for the Varsity, while Bum -stead, Macdonnel and Henry scoredfor Province to end the half 18.10.

Sewn TiedFor most of the second period Gor-

don Allen's boys found the goingtough, and pulled the game out ofthe fire with less than three minutesto play.

Within three minutes the Needlestied the score, and were ahead 18-20a few moments later, when Varsitycalled time out.

Two foul shots by Osborne, one b yNicholson and a tally by HookerWright gave U.B .C . a 23-21 lead, withthree minutes left to go. Both teamswere pressing hard for a break and achance to score and four fouls weregiven out . Varsity snared two an dProvince one, to end the game 25.22 .

The teams :U .B.C . — Bardsley, K . Wright (9) ,

Matthison (5), Nicholson (2), Camp -bell, D. Wright, Osborne (9) .—25 .

Province—Peebles (2), Helem (2) ,Bumstead (10), Macdonnel (6), HallHaugh, Henry (2), D. Smith .—22,

fence told in the dying moments of Thorneloe, and these boys provide dthe match when every point counted .

Lacey deserves much credit fo rwinning the title, as his path to thefinal round was by no means easy .In the semi-final, M. Atkinson, broth-er of Ken, the Varsity Champion,took Lacey to three sets and actuallygathered more points than the latter ,but failed to get the needed twogames. Their scores were 18.18, 3-15,1542.
