Problems at Ecoleby Jill Ross

The students of Ecole de Beaux Arts are beginning to show signs of succumbing to overt government pressure.

They had, until recently, shown every determination to remain firm in their resolve to maintain occupation of their school until they had received some genuine assurance that their grievances would be met by some sort of positive ac­tion.

Until as late as Monday the occupiers had remained confident of their power and bargaining position. They o- riginally had planned to call a student General Assembly today to reassess the possi­bility of opening negotiations with the opposing parties. They would have based their decision on a conglomerate report containing all propo­sals collected by the various committees established at the time of the strike. The stri­kers also had planned to pre­sent a report on the internal school projects maintained by the students themselves since the strike.

students Beaux Arts

Sheila Castel, a spokesman for the occupying students at Ecole des Beaux Arts explains their position at a recent press conference. A meeting will be held today to determine w h a t further action the students should take.

Total participation

Fast- flying rumours..

That was Monday. Since then fast-flying rumours of staff and student capitulation have been reported daily by press and radio. Yesterday one of the student leaders had to admit that a govern­ment stoppage of art m ate­rials to the school has now made their position almost untenable. What looked like the most valiant attem pt yet to defy an authoritarian go­vernment, which has consis­tently turned a deaf ear to student pleas for action on their behalf, has like other such movements ended in de­jection. But defeat has not yet been declared.

The students, by virtue of this action on the part of the government (an action not un­like the final arbitrary move taken against the CEGEPs) are faced with two self-de­feating alternatives: either to end occupation or pursue a meaningless strike. For by witholding materials from the students, the government has cleverly removed any cons­tructive purpose that the stri­ke might have had.

Prior to the government decision to withold supplies, and presumably up to the ti­me that all materials have been depleted, the students have been, and will be, invol­ved in collective work pro­jects. These projects take in all aspects of school opera­tion (cleanup, kitchen detail, etc.) and classroom coordi­nation. This classroom co­ordination is what gave m ea­ning to the strike, by giving the student a chance to prove definitively that he can be a thinking, original and crea­tive being.

Briefly, what the class co­ordination involved was the development of an aspect of the given art project that would allow the students to experi­ment with a com bining of all media within the spectrum of the visual arts. Their pro­gram also called for an em ­phasis on self and inter-group appraisal, thus allowing the student an outlet for his o- pinions and an opportunity to develop critical awareness. From this procedure was e- volved a sense of total stu­dent participation among those taking part in the occupation.

Quebec's action

The feeling of involvement and com m itm ent to their work which probably came unexpec­tedly as a result of this m o­

vement, is what makes the action taken by Quebec seem all the more blood-thirsty and blind. In cutting the jugular vein of the students by stop­ping shipment of supplies, the administration of this provide have deepened the slit already inflicted in its own increa­singly vulnerable throat.

One may be tempted to say of this situation that it is not meaningful or valid because it is not representative of the majority of students attending the school. But one must, more importantly, remember that it is most often a m ino­rity that sees clearly the ad­vantages as a non-threat to itself so that it will feel it can act safely.

Two years of discontent

Student unrest is not a new developm ent. at the Beaux Arts. Tw o years ago the stu­dents, fed up with poor faci­lities, teachers and materials, and seeing no attem pt on the part of the administration to implement changes, called a walk-out. They returned only after the provincial govern­ment had established a Royal Commission to look into the administration of the school and the demands of the stu­dents. The preliminary re­port was handed down sugges­ting certain changes within the structure of the school and then was forgotten. None of the proposed changes were ever effected.

Bourbeau resigns as U GEQ PresidentMontreal (CUP) — Paul

Bourbeau has resigned as president of L ’ Union Gene­rate des Etudiants de Quebec after a disagreement with the Union’s Executive over the power of the presidency.

The Executive accused him of failing to carry out his jurisdictional duties. Bourbeau agreed, but in do­ing so explained he felt to carry out his duties as de­fined would be tantamount to accepting authoritarian control not in conformity with “ present student aspi­rations.”

Bourbeau attacked the structure of UGEQ in his resignation statement and called for a radical change in its make-up. “ The time has come for us to reject the individualistic concept of authority and to stop play­ing the consumer corpora­tion’ s game which requires supermen like Kennedy and Trudeau.” Continuing, he said radical transformation has always been a viable process even though “ bour­geois history attempts to prove the opposite.”

He signed his statement: “ Paul Bourbeau, a member of the Executive who hap-

PaulBourbeaurejects ind ividualistic concept of authority.

pens to be president.” His major argument was that radical student action must be collective in nature not led by authoritarian figures.

The Executive issued its own statement, formally disassociating itself from Bourbeau’s position. Reco­gnizing the UGEQ consti­tution has created an “ au­thoritarian leadership” in the presidency, the executive nevertheless felt that the direction of UGEQ has always been a collective ef­fort. The statement attack­ed Bourbeau for not provid­ing even a minimum of lead­ership necessary to run the organization.

An interim president has not as yet been selected.

High-rise a possibility for student residence

By next year over 500 Sir George students could be li­ving in a high-rise apartment building as part of the uni­versity’ s housing project.

Ben W ygodny, chairman of the Student Union Building Committee, explained that a private com pany that has downtown land, has designed a building and approached the university with a housing pro­posal.

“ By this proposal, the uni­versity rents the land for for­ty-nine years and after that, the building becom es the uni­versity’s” , said Wygodny.

The planned high-rise a- partment would house 462 sin­gle students and 72 married couples.

The administration is in favour of the project, W ygod­ny explained. “ However, the university has no funds to rent

the building and has appealed to the Department of Educa­tion in Quebec which assists university housing.

“ Now it’s up to Quebec to decide if the Building quali­fies under it’s specifications” said W ygodny, “ but we may have housing within One year.”

ICUA hearingsThe Joint Committee on University Affairs will hold its first open hearing for proposals on the re­structurization of univer­sity government in Room H-635 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. today.

OF THOSE

10NGFAGH)DISCOTHEQUES ?

‘Standard of living’ is an ex­pression that encompasses not only econom ic realties but political, CULTURAL, and humanitarian realities as well.

To be technically correct, this expression can only be applied to the individual and not to a society. As in any society, there will be quite a substantial spread of values or realities. However, here we will speak in fairly gene­ral terms and use this ex­pression in relation to socie­ty, the society of North Am e­rica.

The ‘Great Society’ and the ‘Affluent Society' are two ve­ry popular contemporary ex­pressions. They are, at the same time, also very vague,

general and limited. The first expression would probably be opposed by as many as sup­ported it while the second im ­plies affluence in every res­pect - an outlandish assump­tion.

Although econom ic affluen­ce has largely been achieved (and if not in fact achieved, at least the opportunity of afflu­ence has been achieved) for the white man in North Am e­rica, we are still living in a very primitive society.

For affluence implies not only material wealth, but al­

so political, cultural and hu­manitarian wealth. And North America, ladies and gentle­men, is sadly lacking these three latter values.

Are Lyndon Johnson, Hubert Humphrey, Richard Nixon political wealth? Why are John Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, anc Martin Luther King dead? And does Jean Jacques Bertrand represent Quebec?

I think that a Cam bell’s Soup can is more repre­sentative of the North A- merican culture than the m a­jority of com mon men per- cieve or would like to believe.

The Viet Nam War, subver­sive activities enveloping La­tin American and Asian coun­tries, the racial hatred bet­ween blackman and whiteman, Jew and gentile, Frenchman

and Englishman, Indian and Whiteman, and the multitude of unjust laws arbitrated upon us by law enforcement repre­sentatives of “ questionable intelligence and good judge­m ent" are just some- of the many facets of our humani­tarian society.

Our highly industrial-tech­nological environment has brought us much material wealth, our econom ical “ stan­dard of living" is the highest in the world. The only trou­ble is, there soon won’t be a world if we keep going this way.

We have seen what a socie­ty of well trained technolo­gists, scientists, engineers and administrators have done. Now let us hope that some hu­manists will come to the fore and guide us to world peace and co-operation.

Dear Mr. Hershorn,I am writing in reply to your letter of Nov. 12th con­

cerning our coverage of the October 30th demonstration by students and taxi drivers against your monopoly of the taxi franchise at Dorval Airport and a number of Montreal hotels.

Firstly, w e did not "see fit to give space to various statements provided to you by (the georgian) 'Le Movement de Liberation du Taxi", as you have charged. The facts, in this particular case, speak for themsel­ves, and those are w hat w e published, not "accusations in slogan form".

Your apparent concern for a "sense of fairness" in dealing with the dispute is difficult to reconcile with the m anner in which you stated your position to the people of Montreal (see the Montreal Star, Friday, November 8th). You opened your 'appeal' with the fol- fowing statem ent; "On W ednesday, October 30th, a small group of taxi drivers calling themselves "Le Mouvement de Liberation du Taxi", with the help of gangs of trouble-makers, toughs and agitators whom they cose to call "the students" carried out a delibe­rate, premeditated crime against our com pany".

For someone who has such an obvious concern for the law , you have not hesitated in violating a very basic principle of that sam e law when you speak of a "deli­berate, premeditated crime" (assum ing that a some­thing legally questionable has taken place,which w e do not). As I understand it, in this " just" society, a man (or group of men) is innocent until proven quilty.

No, Mr. Hershorn, w e will not present your factually questionable assessment of the situation, which you choose to call a statement of Murray Hill's position.

One of our primary functions, as a student new s­paper, is to offer students "the other side", of issues, the point of v iew that is generally not presenten in the pages of the commercial press.

Under the circumstances, w e feel that the taxi driv­ers had little alternative but to forcefully bring their dilemma to the attention of the public, and w e support their position and the m anner in which they close to demonstrate it.

Very interestingEditor, the georgian;

I am a student at Sir Geor­ge and an avid reader o f the georgian. I have followed with great interest the va­rious views expressed on the war in Vietnam and would like to contribute my own “ interpretation” of this gi­gantic fraud, being perpetra­ted on the people of the world.

The recent invasion and oc­cupation of Czechoslovakia, underlined the similarity and cynical attitude both “ Super Powers” display when dealing with dissenting smaller States in their self-proclaimed sphe­res of political and military influence. The collusion bet­ween an “ Imperialist” Soviet Union and the equally “ Im­perialist” USA must now be accepted as a fact.

M ao Tse Tung insists that a “ Secret Agreement” to ru­le the world between W ashing­ton and Moscow exists; In the light of recent events, he has been proven right.

Therefore, you may accept my interpretation of the war, as being that of a Western, Non-Communists, M AOIST. Highly confusing it seems at first, but then truth is often stranger than fiction.

The bom bing halt, the Paris

peace negociations, and all future maneuvers are just that, tactics employed to con­fuse the public.

The events of the last few weeks reveal the following:

1) The Soviets, by brutally crushing Dubcek’s humanizing of communism, have put their “ Western Front” in military order.

2) Now Soviet military at­tention will be turned towards China, and a com bined m ili­tary-political-diplom atic of­fensive is about to get under way. The ultimate goal being to replace M ao Tse Tung with a Moscow oriented “ Puppet” .

3) Americas job in Vietnam is now largely com pleted. The US has kept M ao away

from Siberia, during the most dangerous time for Moscow.

4) Anything America now !does is nothing but a “ De-es­calation” of its own “ Escala­tion” . America in effect, e- ven if every last US soldier were to leave Vietnam would still leave China ringed by huge, modern air - bases, m odern deap sea ports, and .sattelites armed to the teeth with the latest military equip­ment.

I hope that this rather short exposee will be sufficent and do “ M A O ’S TH O U G H T’S” justice.

Land and funds neededfor students’ union

by Karen Sm ith

Sir George students will not get their Student Union Building tor quite awhile unless more land and funds become available.

Ben W ygodny, chairman of the SUB Committee, said an advisory board of students, faculty and administrators has been set up to manage the funds of the SUB.

In the spring of 1966, stu­dents voted in a referendum to give five dollars annually towards a SUB. This money is deducted at registration and over $70,000,00 has been accumulated to date.

The advisory board is going to invest the money in bonds, securities, or even land. Only a small amount is used for operating expenses - such as paying dues to the Student Union Association Internation­al.

Land is neededWygodny disagrees with

past com mittees’ method of bringing in consultants - “ It’s no use until we have land” , he said.

Currently the SCB is third in the university’s building priorities. First comes the Library and then a new Arts Building. “ They’re getting land for these two projects but as far as I know there’ s no land for the SUB yet.”

Aside from land, Wogod- ny’ s next problem is money. The five dollar fee isn’ t enough, he said, and Quebec is giving no financial aid.

Wogodny hopes students will give more time and effort to the problem and participate in a fund-raising campaign. He feels that if students don’t stress the need for the SUB, administrators won’t push the project..

“ I want to make the build­ing the heart of the cultural and social life of the univer­sity,” said Wygodny.

He explained that the SUB will probably be a university center, a place for faculty, administrators, and anyone associated with university life, not just students. W y­godny therefore feels evening students and faculty should also donate funds.

Last year’s committee under Peter M axym ych drew up a list of facilities includ­ing ballroom, games room, T V lounges, bar and cafete­ria.

Survey to be circulatedHowever, W ogodny feels

the SUB should feasibly fit Sir George’s needs and is planning to send out a survey questioning students on what facilities they want.

The SUB might also be amalgamated with other pro­jects such as the Library or Arts Building, but most probably with the Physical Education Building, said W ygodny. He explained it would be cheaper financially and avoid duplication but “ the larger the building, the more land we need” .

As chariman, W ygodny hopes to do four things: establish continuity between com mittees year to year,continue the research of past years, increase financialsupport, and get more stu­dents interested in the Com ­mittee.

Once, the com pletion of SUB was predicted in six more years. W ygodny feels it will be “ a great many more years from now before we can buy downtown land and get government financialassistance” .

Jo<kD&k>...The Athletics Department is pleased to announce that

once again this year, Sir George students Will have free access to the facilities of the Y .M .C .A . ... students showing I.D. cards from 2:00 P.M . to 4:00 P.M . on M on­days Wednesdays and Fridays will be able to work out at the Y gym or pool ... Several ardent skiers have approa­ched this office expressing great interest in starting a ski club. Though I don’ t know the difference between a ski pole and a slalom, I will be handling the initial arrange­ments for these students ... If you’re interested come into the Georgian office and write your name and phone number on the ski sheet and you will be contacted ... Speaking of skiing, Nancy Greene will be in town this weekend to help support the National Ski Team Fund-Raising Campaign... Those interested in meeting Nancy can catch her at the Arlington Ski and Sport Shop, 1235 St. Catherine St. W ., where she will be signing autographs and giving tips onskiing. ARE YOU A TOUGH?...

...If you are, then the Georgian wrestling team wants you ... Coaches Harry W olfson and Barry Nye have put in a call for potential champions to supplement the team which finished second to R .M .C. in the conference last year ... the squad practices on M ondays, W ednesdays and Fridays from 5:00 to 7:00 P.M. and Tuesdays and Thurs­days at 7:30 in the A .M . The Georgian hockey boys went down to defeat at the hands of the M cG ill Redmen M onday evening in a Coupe de Quebec series game ... the score was 6-4 but the play was extremely close (isn 't that what they always say?)... tonight’s scheduled O.S.L. encounter with Loyola has been postponed until January 11 since the Forum will be occupied by the amazing Harlem Globetrotters... the Globies are undoubtedly the most fantastic show in all of sports, and if you ’ve never seen ’em, it’s well worth your while... tix can still be had at the new forum... once we’re on the topic of the cage sport, a word of good luck to coach Fred Whitacre and his Georgian roundballers who open their season this weekend with games against Bishop’s and Sherbrooke in the two Eastern Townships com munities...ELK FINALLY A W INNER , , , , . .

... A hearty mazel tov is definitely in order for Sir George football Mentor Frank Elk. “ The Reindeer,” as he is known to his many fans was a frustrated loser with the Garnet and Gold all season, but now he has something to smile about as St. Thom as High School, where he is director of athletics, defeated West Hill High, my Alma Mater to win the city title of the High School senior football league... Atta boy, Franky...AND GUESS WHO LOST?

... The “ invincible” Loyola Football Warriors were finally “ vinced” ... the unbeaten champs in the Eastern sector of the Central Canada Intercollegiate Football Conference met their Waterloo in the Person of W ater­loo Luthran University for the league title... the score was 40-0... could you imagine what Lutheran would do

^to the Georgians? (ou ch !)...

Season begins

Rod Ward 6’ 1” Forward

Georgianby Gord Pickle

The 1968-69 Varsity Bas­ketball season starts on Fri­day as the Georgians travel to Lennoxville to do battle with the Bishop’s University Cagers. The squad has been practicing since September

cagers visit Bishops, Sherbrookeand has gradually been trim­med from twenty-five hope­fuls to its present strength of seventeen.

The team is once again being coached by Fred Whita- cre, who is now in his fourth year in that position. Among the players having Varsity or Junior Varsity experience are Mike Dawson, Wayne Hawkins, Preston Jennings, W ilf Jackson, Ron W ard, and Ken Davies. The veterans are backed by a determined and hustling group of rookies, as evidenced by the Fact that Coach Whitacre’ s fore­ward line is made up of first year men.

Starting centre Joe Mar-

kuras broke his arm this week and he will be replaced by Dawe Wilding. The rest of the starting line consists of Chris Vidicek and Terry O ’Brien as the forewards, and Ron Ward and team captain W ilf Jackson at guard.

The team is not noted for its size: Markunas "was the tallest man on the squad, and only three other players top 6’2” . Coach W hitacre, while pleased with the overall effort of the team, is particularly happy with two aspects of the Georgians’ game, namely^ their rebounding strength and steady defence.

The most serious problem facing the Georgians is the

lack of an outside shooter with unlimited range - the guy who can score from just about any spot on the court. Last year this capa­city was ably filled by Richie Campoli, who has decided to sit out this year in favor of studies.

This season’s prospects look quite promising for the team. The potential is there; whether it can be put to use or not remains to be seen. However, if team spirit and individual desire mean anything in this game, Sir George fans will not have much cause for disap­pointment with this year’ s team.
