By ROGER McAFEEThe national office of the Canadian Union of Students

does not want the latest edition of Campus Canadadistributed in Quebec.

But Quebec 's deputy minister of culture, Guy Fregault ,and leading separatist, Pierre Bourgault, at UBC for FrenchCanada week, disagree.

The incident arose when thenational office phoned CampusCanada office here complain-ing that some words in th eFrench text were broken i nthe wrong places at the end o flines.

They told the Campus Can-ada editor the mistake showed"childishness and might rui nthe reputation of the union o fstudents in Quebec . "

"These mistakes will be aninsult to the readers in Que-bec," said Jean-Pierre Bour-duas, secretary for Quebec af-fairs .

"We must halt distributionbefore we are drowned in thelaughter from Quebec . "

Fregault, when shown acopy of the magazine, said th emistakes were of a minor na-ture .

"It is very difficult for evena French Canadian to learn therules for breaking words atthe end of a line .

"If this is the only type ofmistake in the French text i nthe magazine you people de -serve much credit . "

A funny thing happened tome on the way to lunch Wed-nesday .

I ate eight hamburgers ,eight pieces of pie, eightsalads, eight orders of frenchfries and drank 14 cups o fcoffee—all in the cause o fThe Ubyssey .

* * *My city editor asked me to

compare food prices at UBCwith off-campus establish-ments .

Conclusion: the food price sat UBC are less but the ser-vice is worse and the portion sare smaller.

Off- campus restaurantscharge slightly more per per-

A typical student lunch—hamburger, chips, side salad ,pie and coffee costs, on theaverage, 96 cents off campus .

The same meal on campusis 85 cents but the portionsare smaller .

And that second cup of cof-fee cost me 10 cents more a tUBC .

Quebec deputy minister o fcultural affairs Guy Fregaul ttold a Brock audience Wednes-day his government will neve rbe able to keep up with the de-mand for subsidization ofFrench Canadian arts .

He said the arts have mush-roomed in Quebec in the pastdecade necessitating the estab-lishment of a Quebec ministryof cultural affairs .

"The role of the state is tomake the artist feel that whathe does is important to thegeneral spiritual and socia lwelfare of the community," h esaid .

a letter of congratulations," hesaid .

Bourgault, one of Quebec ' sleading separatists said the"errors" were of a minornature .

"The text is well written .These "errors" were made bythe type setters and they ar enothing .

"I can pick up a copy of L aPresse, (one of French Cana-da 's leading newspapers,) andfind you at least 1,000 errors i nevery edition .

"Some people c o m p l a i nabout anything .

"If this is the only typeof error in the French, my ha tis off to you . "

Campus Canada is a bi-lingual publication producedby the UBC Alma MaterSociety for the CanadianUnion of Students .

Approximately one third ofthe text is in French. Six hun-dred of the 10,000 printe dhave been ordered by theQuebec universities .

The AMS is currently under-writing the cost of the maga-zine and has spent almost$2,500 on the production of th efirst two issues.

This deficit is expected to bemade up on the next two is-sues.

The magazine is now on saleat UBC .

Two grad class reps fromeach faculty, plus four otherstudents elected the executive .

The meeting was opened andany graduating student couldnominate candidates or stand

for election, said Science presi-dent Chuck Rennie, in charg eof the meeting.

But there were no noticeson boards or ads placed in Th eUbyssey to tell students aboutthe meeting he said .

"I felt the elections shouldbe left up to the faculty re-presentatives."

"Even this one goes throughthe drapes . "

The new sign which will beone of the largest on the Wes tCoast will be twice the size ofthe residence it will towerover .

"This is the way it wasdone last year," Rennie said."In previous years the gradclass hasn't shown much in-terest in these elections."

Rennie was appointed bycouncil to conduct the meet-ing.

The faculty representative swere nominated by facultypresidents or in some caseselected by the under-graduat esociety councils, he said .

An itereshting shupper,boy oh boy, it Shure wash

RonQUIXOTE

The smashing earlier thi sweek on campus of severalstatues is, I agree, criminaland quite deplorable .

Most of the deplorers, how -ever, seem to have missed themain point : It's also ironic ashell .

That a collection of roc kand concrete valued at somefour grand should be damag-ed by vandals is a senselesswaste of good devalue dmoney .

* * *But following within a

week of an equally senselesswaste of $1,500, the forme rinstance of ignorance is re-duced in tragic and outraged-cries-of-book-burning value toa mere $2,500 .

The wasted $1,500 was, ofcourse, spent by the Brockart committee on a chunk ofavant-garde wall paper cre-ated (please note the thin linebetween creation and abor-tion) by a New York artist ,William Ronald .

Using addition instead ofsubtraction, the total waste ofcash will amount to five-point-five thou ., which is acrying shame at a universitybeing strangled for fundsfrom other grinning sources.

* * *According to art authori-

ties on campus, the statuesare insured against vandal -ism .

But are we — you and I ,Jane and Joe college—insur-ed against stupidity on thepart of those spending ourmoney under the guise ofbroadening our artistic hori-zons ?

Not bloody likely.Lloyds of London wouldn' t

touch anything concernin gthe intelligence of thosewhom we elect (or dis-elect ,considering the apathy to-wards student government)

or that of their appointed ,ever-growing and incestuouscommittees .

So there goes another$1,500 of our money, for apiece of interior anti-decorat-ing with which even the en-gineers are offended to b econnected.

* * *The engineers' excellent

statue hoax at start of theterm has laid open to doubtthe validity of anything non-functional hanging around oncampus (except Sahib Ouvre' selite corps of frustrated cor-porals—NOBODY can claimthey have any relevance toanything, least of all art) .

Brock's "SUN," however ,

is alleged to be authentic . Areceipt for $1,500 substanti-

ates said authenticity .Personally, this cowboy

couldn't care less WHAT theyhang in Brock Hall (up to andincluding student council) —be it authentic or not .

But if authenticity in theform of garbage indistin-guishable from hoax comes at$1,500 an item, let us by al lmeans have the hoax—it's afar cry cheaper .

'Vandalismwill scareexhibitors'

UBC's statue-smashing van-dals will scare other artistsaway from the campus, profes-sor Ian McNairn of the Fin eArts department said Wednes-day .

"The action will make artist shesitant to exhibit their workson campus in the future," hesaid .

"Although the figures werecovered by a university policy ,the creation of a man is im-possible to replace . "

He said the vandalism coul daffect the reputation of UB C

as being broad-minded and con-cerned with art .

RCMP and UBC securitypatrolmen are still looking fo rthe vandals who smashed threeof the statues dotted aroundthe campus. They did $2,00 0worth of damage .

Student Discipline Commit-tee has not been asked to aidin the search .

One of the statues, Miner,has been put back on its bas ein the Buchanan quad, butlarge chunks of concrete fromthe miner's chest are still lyingon the ground .

"UBC's five per cent clodelement has struck again," saidArts president Mike Coleman ."Whether or not one appreci-ates the aesthetic qualities o fthe statues in question, it isunbelievable that people wouldtale it upon themselves todestroy university property ."

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1963

Crying wolfJust down the street from where we live, there is a

large, green box which belongs to the federal post office

department.

It is just like every green post box you see on th eordinary street-corner, except this one has "F.L.B.C . "scrawled on the side in big, yellow letters . The inscrip-tion, of course, is a take-off on the FLQ, one of our man ymisunderstood French-Canadian minorities .

We think the obviously flippant manner in which th einscription was written is all too indicative of a com-placent disregard on the part of B .C. citizens for th erumblings of dissatisfaction in Quebec—rumblings whichcould quite quickly split the country in two .

We think it's unfortunate, too, that more UB Cstudents haven't taken advantage of the opportunity t oinform themselves of the bicultural problem by attend-ing the excellent series of lectures and discussions puton by student council for French Canada Week .

The French-Canadians have been mistreated, andgreatly misunderstood by the rest of Canada .

But we'd like to protest a bit on behalf of the Englis h—who right in the midst of this Quebec renaissance ar ebeing mistreated and misunderstood themselves .

A good example is the—Campus Canada squawk ,detailed on page one . When the French officials in theEast received their copy, they immediately set out to fin dall the errors they could in the magazine .a

Before reading more than a smattering of the maga-tine, they were on the phone to Vancouver, demandingthat such an insulting publication not be distributed inQuebec .

The magazine was commended, however, by th eQuebec minister of culture, an arch-separatist, and th ehead of UBC's Romance Studies department .

Having suffered through this incident, we begin t owonder about the veracity of Quebec's claims againstDonald Gordon, for instance .

Hypersensitivity in a minority group irritates us .But we can become downright angry when such agroup lays back, waiting for an opportunity to screa m"mistreatment . "

Pinch the punksWe can go along with a good stunt, or a campus joke ,

even if it is a bit sick . The students, and, for the mostpart, the administration, go along with these seasonal

outbursts of college madness, too .But occasionally, we feel moved to get up there in

the pulpit, beside those perennially-outraged member s

of the downtown public, and start preaching .We don't think there's any room in this universit y

for the clods who insist on taking their little stunts be-yond that tender point of tolerance .

Like the slobs who broke up the homecoming foot-

ball game with their beer-slinging, brawling arrogance.

Throw the book at 'em, we say .Worse, there are the bums like those who, last week -

end, maliciously mutilated $4,000 worth of sculpture in

the Buchanan plaza.We had a case like that a couple of years ago—a

similar bunch thought it would be smart to slash up th epaintings in the Brock link, and smear them with

ketchup .We find it hard to understand the mentality which

would do this kind of thing . We don't like the paintings,

either. But we thought the black-jacket, duck-cut hero

image was left behind in the high schools .We doubt whether this behavior can be ascribed to

alcoholic obliteration of an otherwise rational mind .People who smash legitimate sculpture, smear paint-

ings, disrupt organized events with hoodlum tactics are ,just plain stupid .

In which case they shouldn 't be at university. Wesay throw the punks out on their heads, if they 've got any .

Editor, The Ubyssey :

In your issue of Oct. 24 ,Roger McAfee took an excel -lent stand on forthcomingOpen House, and the possibleeffects on the Alums and pub-lic at large. Recently I haveheard so many people remarkthat they can't understan dwhat UBC students want, orhave to complain about, "a sI was overwhelmed when Isaw all the new buildings . Icouldn't believe my eyes! "

As Davie Fulton comment-ed, Mr. Bennett, like the lateMusselinin, builds things thepeople can see, 'and so keepsa lot of them happy. Theydon't see what is covered u por left undone .

* * *In any event, Mr. McAfee

is right, and without a rea lcampaign, Open House mayhave an adverse effect on thepublic when it comes to sup-port . This campaign must beplanned now.

My suggestion is that everyvisitor to the campus .be giv-en a mimeographed brochure .Most will see only the physi-cal campus, and so not realizethe true problems of the Uni-versity .

On page one, each buildingerected since the presen tbuilding campaign starte d(1951) should be listed withits cost . Beside each shouldbe shown the break down ofwho really paid for each build-ing, such as "Canada Coun-cil ;" or "Paid by studentmoney only ;" or "5500,00 0paid by Provincial Govern-ment and $500,000 by publicsubscription ." If this is done ,the visitors will realize the

puny contribution by the gov-ernment

. * * *Next page should tell th e

real problems of UBC. It i snot mainly buildings or sal-ary level, BUT lack of moneyfor adequate equipment an dfor sufficient staff. Presentstaff in most instances carrie stwice the work load of simi-lar faculty members at otherinstitutions and so has notime for research, and if the yhad the time there is nomoney for necessary equip-ment. Faculty must be in-creased by at least 40 percent not taking into consid-eration any increase in stu-dent body .

Faculty then would have areasonable time for research .

Page three could containthree tables ; (1) The contri-butions of each provincia lgovernment to their univer- come insities per student ; (2). Thecontributions as a percentage

LETTERS Council told

Frosh program'in sad shape

Good griefEditor, The Ubyssey:

I think Jack Ornstein hasfinally gone too far . It is easyenough for any logicallythinking being to see tha tthere is no God; but to im-ply that there is no Grea tPumpkin is pure heresy .

I am just a plain scienc estudent (36-24-37) but when Igo out at nights and look a tthe starry sky, it is obviousthat there must be a GreatPumpkin.

Besides, why else would wehave Halloween? What kindof a monster are you Jack? Doyou want your children t ogrow up to be atheists and notbelieve in the Great Pumpkin .

If you can't be convincedotherwise, I am willing toconvince you that there is aGreat Pumpkin by taking youout with me one night. Andyou will see; it will all bethere nice and big and roundand glorious.

InitiativeEditor, The Ubyssey:

Protests over textbookprices could be excused ifthe service rendered at theUBC bookstore were a littleless uninspired. When UBC-entertains a controversialauthor like James Baldwin, i tshould be possible to buy hisbooks, current bestsellers, i nthe campus bookstore .

The foresight and initiative

required to order a supply o f

Baldwin's books seems to belacking in the administration

of the bookstore . An ambi-

tious and agressive bookstore

would have had Baldwin' s

books prominently displaye d

this week .Some go through life as

mere employees, doing thei r

job barely adequately and

without interest . Others strive

for excellence, in the words ofPresident Macdonald. They

have the aggressive attitude

which searches for means to

improve. It is a characteristi c

of monopolies to choke initia-tive and ambition and to pro -duce "mere employees ." Ag-gressive and ambitious com-

petition for the UBC book-store is what is required be -fore it will improve .

Free heresiesEditor, The Ubyssey :

This university has had un-favorable publicity because

of the heresies we allow here .

Because we allow the Com-

munists the same rights as

other political groups, many

people think we are promot-

Because a professor, at a

noon-hour meeting, asks a

group of students whether

they can prove there is a God ,

some religious groups thinkwe are preaching atheism .

Because we allow free discus-

sions of sex, some moraliststhink we are teaching "barn -

yard morals" . I-leaven forbid !

These people do not realizethat we are merely putting th e

principle of freedom of speech

into practice. Possibly wewouldn't have such a hardtime getting money if we were

to give up some of this free -dom. I'm sure many of uswould rather have the free-dom .

New 'work'in shadowof Sun

Sun has company.

But it's not supposed to .

The controversial painting ,Sun, is sharing its place o fhonor in the Brock Link with

a new painting, called In-

auguration I, by Robert Cor-bin. The painting is a kaleido-

scope of color and pandemon-ium .

When first contacted abou tthe new work, Professor Ia nMcNairn of the Fine ArtsDepartment said he had no tseen the painting but added :"It's not supposed to bethere . "

"We have added no newpaintings to the Brock collec-tion since "Sun", said KenLeitch, AMS Co-ordinator ofActivities .

Two interpretations of the

painting hang beside it . Theylook like parodies of other

critiques put up b es i d e"Sun" .

One analysis, by Pat Bride,says the painting "instills a nintrinsic feeling of motion" .

He described it as a "superbmasterpiece", and said "oneachieves a sense of peace an drelaxation from looking at it— that far surpasses normaltranquility" .

Alvin Balkind, curator ofthe Fine Arts Gallery, refusedto talk to The Ubyssey fo rpublication about the paint-ing .

" I 'm completely disillusion-ed with the reporting of tha tsensational newspaper," hesaid .

Some students believe th enew "work of art" is a fake.

"It is clear the AlmaMater Society must take a ne wapproach to Freshman orienta-tion," he said .

In 1961, 1,800 students at-tended the Frosh Receptiondance, but this year only 1,00 0did, he said .

Up to 1961, there were al-ways more applicants for FroshRetreat than there was space ,but for the past two years thecommittee had to work to find

enough students for the retreat .The Big Block smoker had t o

be dropped because of lack ofinterest, and attendance at theBig and Little Sister Banquethas declined, he said .

The Frosh pep meet, heldfor the first time this year ,was also very poorly attended .

Galbraith said the situationis a result of poor publicityand changing attitudes towardsuniversity education .

He accused Buildings andGrounds of "taking utterly un-reasonable attitudes towardsstudent publicity ."

Galbraith said the presentlocation of Frosh retreat shouldbe changed. "Camp Elphin-stone is becoming increasinglyunsuitable as a site," he said .

"Its proximity to a settled

area and the consequent diffi-culty of maintaining as closecontrol as desirable is a majorproblem . "

"Frosh Reception needs dras-tic reorganization," he said.

The whole concept should b erevised, either by raising ticke tprices and providing betterentertainment, or by scrappingthe dance altogether, said Gal-braith .

He said drastic steps shouldbe taken to improve the pro-gram.

The AMS should develop acounselling program for newstudents, he said with seniorstudents, he said, with seniorprograms with fresh in inter-views, lectures and discussions .

"One of the most obviousfailings of the administration isin the area of course counsel -ling and orientation," he said .He also suggested a mass in-

doctrination program for Froshin registration week .

ing Communism .

The eliteEditor, The Ubyssey:

I met, in Brock extension ,on Tuesday, a man whothought that the painting re-ferred to as "Sun" shouldhave its fate decided upon b ythe students .

Further, he said that allpaintings selected to hang inBrock Hall should be selectedby the majority of students .He felt that because the artwas for the students' enjoy-ment it should he selected bythe students .

By the majority of studentshe meant those that happen toshow up at a student meeting ,and of those the group thathappens to form a majority ofvoters for a particular paint-ing.

This gentleman, in effect ,advocates the abolition of art.Art is not a product by themajority for the majority.In fact art has little to do withdemocratic procedure .

To leave art to the mob-ocracy is to abolish art .

Mass society by definitio ncan not have art . Art is forthe elite . By denying the elitecontrol of its medium you sup -press one facet of humannature. Only totalitarianis mhas succeeded in doing this .

By AL BIRNIEStudents steal and break

$9,000 worth of dishes andcutlery from UBC cafeteri aeach year .

But Ruth Blair, Food Ser-vices head, said this was nor-mal operating expenses for acafeteria complex of this size .

"Cups, glasses and teapot sare the most common things togo . That is why we stoppedserving tea in pots," she said .

"Many cabins on GrouseMountain most likely havethings in them we would rec-ognize."

'Cabins furnished 'with cafeteria cutlery

She pointed out, however,that the $9,000 total includedbreakage as well as loss . Moststudents use the cafeteria hon-estly, she said .

"Only certain types of stu-dents get pleasure out of tak-ing things from restaurants . "

The $9,000 is taken into ac -count in the food prices, sh esaid .

Arts grads shyaway from jobs

Last year only 85 arts gradsapplied for jobs through theUBC placement office .

He said 15 of these went oninto graduate work, 23 lost in-terest, 23 were hired and 2 1were left unemployed .

Since then only 13 remainedunemployed and this is due t olow marks or an aversion t owork, he said .

Hacking said there areplenty of jobs available in themerchandizing field .

Large manufacturing con-cerns, business offices, and de-partment stores are particu-larly eager for arts grads .

Several chartered bank swant men for their manageria lprograms; salaries average$400 a month .

Women can make $300 ormore a month working for de-partment stores in their train-ing programs .

Advantageous B .A. majorsare psychology, sociology, his-tory, English, math, economics ,and political science, he said ,but marks are more important .Grads with 50-55 per centaverages will have trouble get-ting good jobs, said Hacking .

Nearly 100 per cent of thegraduates in such fields as ap-plied science, agriculture, com-merce, science, and forestryget their jobs through UB Cplacement. There is no trouble

MULLEN'S

EYE VIEW

OF BIRDSBy DAN MULLEN

A short time ago this sec-tion printed an article whichbelittled the efforts of UBCcheerleaders to evoke enthu-siasm from crowds at footballgames .

It contrasted their failurewith the success of two stu-dent councillors in stirring u pthe UBC rooters . It suggestedthat since T-bird spectatorsresponded better to unofficialleaders, the girls in the shortskirts may as well get lost .

* * *Reaction followed . There

were several indignant letters-to-the-editor . T h e BoosterClub, with which the cheer -leaders are affiliated, sentthe story's author an invita-tion to attend a cheer prac-tice . They sent me one, too .

I saw a group of girls wh oare willing to work hard toperfect cheerleading routines ,a group who want nothingmore than to channel the ob-vious enthusiasm (the currentterm is "exuberance") of UB Cfans into orderly support fo rthe school's athletic teams .

How do they feel whenthere is little or no responsefrom a packed grandstand ?

* * *"We try to do better," says

one, "but it's hard with nosupport ."

What's in it for them? On eof the girls said that her re -ward "would be knowing thecrowd was with us in back-ing the team . "

A recent survey by theBooster Club indicated thatstudents favored more invol-ved routines over mere `yell 'leading. Accordingly, t h egirls began learning a seriesof somewhat intricate man-euvers, only to be criticizedfor "mutilating" their "fancyroutines ."

* * *As if student apathy and

disparagement were not ob-stacle enough, the cheerlead-ers face some unique prob-lems .

During the University ofAlberta-UBC game two weeksago, one of the girls becam ethe center of a brawl whenseveral men tried to kidna pher .

It was expected that sh ewould quit as a result . But shewas at the practice, concen-trating on smoothing out som edance steps .

Her return illustrates thequality shared by all thecheerleaders, the private con-viction that sends them outin front of a crowd of stu-dents who feel too sophisti-cated to support intercollegi-ate athletics or anything elsethat requires them to sub-merge their haughty indivi-dualism .

Those who urge the cheer -leaders to give up becaus ethere is no spirit show onl ythat they cannot recognizethat spirit when it appearsin others .

If there is ever to be atUBC a school spirit propor-tionate to the size of the Uni-versity, there must be a har dcore of sincere, dedicated stu-dents upon which to build.Groups like the cheerleaderscan form this basis .

CUSO is a national organiza-tion sending people to work inunder-developed countries ofAfrica, Asia and South Ameri-ca .

It sends university gradu-ates, mainly teachers, doctors,engineers, a g r i c u lturalists,nurses and foresters, to thesecountries at the request of thesponsoring government .

The organization came intoexistence in June, 1961, short-ly after the formation of theU.S. Peace Corps .

Thousands of Canadians ha dapplied to the American group ,but were rejected, as the PeaceCorps accepts only America ncitizens.

Clearly, a service to matchthe people and the countrieswas needed.

A United Nations Regiona lTraining Centre was on theUBC campus at that time .This provided the basis for th enew organization—CUSO .

The campus organization isnow divided into three parts—a Senate committee headed byJohn Wood of the ExtensionDepartment, a student commit -tee with Diane Greenall as pre-sident, and a downtown fund -raising committee chaired byVancouver businessman, C . V .Hutchinson .
