The Student In Russia:Prisoner With A Visio n

(Editor's Note :—Student Coun-cillor Kathy Archibald, w htoured Russia last summer o :a World University Ureic (scholarship, found Russian sitedents subject to wide limit s!ions on their freedom, but stilldedicated to the task of buil ding a new society . Hers is herreport) .

It is difficult now to lookhack on the summer and selec tparts of it to compare their re-iative value . Although I trav-elled over twenty-five thous -and mike and met countless Oftpeople of o.lmost every nation-ality, the whole three monthsforms such an integrated wholein retrospect that it is almostimpossible to evaluate one ex-perience ag ainst another .

TIME SPENT

A RUSSIAN STUDEN T

High Tim eNearly every day . we hear complaints ebotit the Lire_" . .

It's too noisy ; there's no place to sit :

hard tt take c, :book ; the staff are all old meanies : end sc on . At ieast tof these complaints are, to our knowledge, jltstified, en :1ought to be remedied . We're amazed that they haven ' t v€€ :lremedied long ago .

We're referring to the two most Irec,'uentiy-voiced c, ;-:, -plaints: that the Library is too noisy. and that there' splace to sit, These are two problems that the people in ,; oive : 1could correct in just one week, if they'd best: themselves

Take, for instance, the noise problem : in its climes. :

moments, the Library sounds like an Arab bazaar . Pro e :study is impossible . Many students are annoyer:, butingly, they do nothing about it . Why net? If students we :-. tto study in the Library, all they have tc do is tc tell whoeve :is making the noise to be quiet . Its that simple . And, : ienough students start saying the same thing, it becomes tha tmuch simpler .

Or take the seating' problem : here again, individua lstudent action would clear the problem up in no time. Ifyou've ever been in the Library when there's "no place tosit," you might have noticed that about one third of th eseats are empty! The curious reason is that, by unwrittencustom, it's permissible to "save" a seat in the Library k yleaving coats or books on the table or chair .

If a book is left open on a Library table, it's possible t cgo away all day, and return to find your seat undisturbed .Only the extremely venturesome, it seems will dare t ointrude on a seat that has thus been "reserved ."

If students would simply adopt the practise of clearin gaway books and coats, and sitting down at the "reserved 'space, the seating problem in the Library would similarly ,simply disappear .

Of course, it takes a certain amount of brass fora singlestudent to do either of these things : but if a lot of student sdid it, it would become the thing to do—and a bad unwritte nlaw would be replaced by a good one .

The Library is one place where a judicious applicatio nof UBC's famed student autonomy would do a great dea lof good . A rather unbelievable situation could be swiftl ycorrected by the sincere application (if just five short words :

Sit down and shut up .

Even the vantage-point of several menthe is not loi nenough to judge the justice or morality of Sir Anthony' sintervention in the Middle East . The task of fixing respu . . -

mliihty, of attaching praise of blame for the current Cell is ,

is one for the future, and need not concern the present .

For the present has far more pressing problems . Numatter What is to blame for the present situation, someon emust pick up the pieces, fast . The Atlantic Alliance and th eCommonwealth are strained almeet to the breaking point ;Britain may he finished as a world power, and the UN ma ybe headed down the same road ,

The security of the whole free world depends on ho wsoon these breaches can be healed . History s trial of Si rAnthony and the rest can wait until later .

The time spent in the Com-munist countries is not easy todescribe . . . praise must b eintermingled with criticism .We spent much of our time i n: :niversity circies . The Rus-sians have founded their edu-cational system on a vision . , .mat some day all will have th eopportunity of a higher educa-tion, and they have gone a longway towards achieving thisideal .

The Russian student is inwhat could be ,called a privil-eged class, but there are com-pulsions and restrictions that aNorth American student wouldfind difficult to accept . How -ever I found that freedom wa smore relative than I had rea-lized . . . that these student shad certair compensations forwhat we would call a lack o ffreedom . There was an enthu-siasm in this building of a newsociety, a unity of purpose per-vading everything with a sens eof innate power .

Now walking on the familia rcampus of UBC, the room inwhich I lived at the Universit yof Moscow seems very fa raway . But this massive thirty -two storey structure stands ou tin my memory as a symbol of avision that even if never rea-lized should be worthy o fpraise in any country .

ec come : e h :ails enough for theco',I me ', leading party orga -:hizatlon, the >Vloscow Commit

- e: the Communist party, t oto discus s

it situation In which 'some sec -lions of the student body havebeen subjected to the influenc eof unhealthy tendencies, an dhave occasionally come unde rthe influence of ideas alien t ono spirit of their motherland . . .

This, according to a repor tof the meeting in a recen t"Pravda," was due to the un-satisfactory state of politica leducation and of party propa-ganda at . the universities, an dto the "weakness" . of . partyleadership in Komsomol erg + -nizations .

The seminar itself, althoughlacking in intellectual stimulu sduring the last week, (we ha dgrappled with all the problems ,solved a few to our satisfactio nand reached a deadlock on theothers), showed that one poin tof criticism often levelled atstudents does not necessaril yhold — that academic interesttakes second place to extra -curricular activities .

All students there were veryactive in extra-curricular pro-jects, as they were selected o nthis basis as well as that of aca-demic qualifications, but lessthan one day out of the threeweeks was spent on a discus-sion of extra-curricular prob-lems .

We found little to hold ou rinterest there. I think this ca nbe attributed more to the typeof students participating tha nto any stimulus offered by th estudy tours or seminar lect -

its must stick closely to the:cites end spirit of official pro -1–i r nciine 1 ' on ideology andrc 11!iCS 111 (1 students--tvho are

The dlienuua is : how to en-ocauage free discussion and a tthe salve time maintain th e.roe control wiihout which n odictatorship can survive .

The dilemma manifests it -self in many spheres of Sovie tlife, but in none more acutely

AT WOR K

For many of us, I'm sure thi swas a unique experience, to beable to start up a conversationwith anyone there and findthat they too were willing t ostay up most of the night dis-cussing politics or religion .

I seem to have finishedwhere I started — at the valueof meeting other students . Andnot only Canadian students, al -though this perhaps stands ou tmost clearly as so many friend -ships were formed .

But when I think of the re-cipe for mince pie I sent toCzechoslovakia on the requestof our hostess there, or when Iwrite to one of my roommates ,the first girl to become presi-dent of Heidelburg University ,and ask her whether her mo-ther knows yet that she is moreinterested in the theatre tha nin the law which she is pre-schtly studying, I feel tha tthese things must in som esmall way contribute to inter -national understanding .

--and more dangerously fo rthe regime — than at the uni-versities .

Here, to the natural elan o fyouth, is added the ability, en-couraged by the authorities, t othink clearly and independent-ly ; for the Soviet leadershi phas at last come to realize tha tonly people irnineci in this wa ycan produce the results whic hthe country needs .

This, comhined tvith the re -cent trend towards independ-ence 111 Kolhlsotllol organiza-tions, has brought a now ele-ment into the Soviet systenh ,something in the nt :tcn•e of a"legal opposition " to the party ,or at least tc sane of its viewsand policies .

In an ingratiating bid forfavor with members of UBC'sJazz Society, the TIE BAR res-pectively submits its 1957 cropof be-bop jokes:

Thetwo hipsters are jarred into un-consciousness, and when the ywake up, they find themselvesin a pad that looks like a Mar-tian hospital .

to automobile plants, theradiators are installed o ncars and trucks .

Automobile radiators are made almost entirel yof copper . And on Canadian cars, it's almos talways Inco copper. Here's how this copperhelps make jobs for thousands of Canadians :

1. To produce copper, Inco ore is mined ,milled, smelted and refined by Canadia nworkmen. About 18,000 people work fo rtaco in Canada :

2. Refined copper is sold to Canadian corn .panics for the manufacture of copper tube ,sheet, strip, rod and wire . These companies

employ several thousand men and women .

3. The copper strip goes to Canadian auto.mobile radiator manufacturers where it i sformed into tube for the production o fradiators . More people are employed here.

4. Along the assembly lines of the automobil ecompanies, Canadian workmen install theseradiators on cars and trucks .

Inco produces over 250,000,000 pounds o fcopper a year . And more than half of this coppe ris used by Canadian industries .

One of the most spectacular and complicated works required for theSt. Lawrence Seaway is now in progress . It is the permanent raising o fthe southern end of the Jacques Cartier Bridge . . . the largest operationof its kind ever undertaken anywhere .

The purpose is to provide a minimum vertical clearance of 120 feet abovehigh water level in the seaway ship canal . An interesting feature is thatuninterrupted traffic must be maintained over the bridge throughoutpractically all of the construction period .The work has been entrusted to Dominion Bridge which built the origina lbridge in 1929. This project typifies the resources and experience of theCompany in the field of structural engineering.Dominion Bridge, an all-Canadian Company, is the foremost fabricatorin this country of bridges and steel structures . Less well known isDominion Bridge's leadership in other engineering fields . Cranes andother handling equipment, hydraulic machinery, boilers for heating andprocess steam requirements, mining machinery, refinery towers, pulp mil ldigesters, oil well machinery—these are but a few examples of thediversification of Dominion Bridge operations .To-day we have the largest and strongest Canadian force of desig nengineers in our field . Much of their work is of a pioneering nature, andthey are constantly being called upon to solve problems connected wit hlarge projects in virtually every type of industry . Theirs is a never -ending challenge. This "Unique Bridge Raising Project" . is only onefascinating chapter in their story . /

Redd afadJA6

miuoit

Pictured above during a C.B.G. radio interview on siteare two Engineers vitally concerned with this project :

Dr. P. L. Pratley, (Centre) well known Consultin gEngineer, designed the original structure as well a sthe raising operation. He spent fourteen years wit hDominion Bridge gaining experience before going intoprivate practice in 1920.Ross Chamberlain, (Left) . Project Engineer withDominion Bridge started with the Company on Sum-mer jobs, where he had experience in the shops, offic eand on erection work, while studying for his B .Eng.degree at McGill University . He later did post graduat ework at the University of Birmingham, (England) an dhas been with the Company since his return in 1953.

At 27 years old, Ross, working with Senior Officials o fthe Company, is responsible for the engineering aspectsof this great undertaking .

There are interesting careers awaiting young civil and mechanica lengineers in Dominion Bridge Company Limited . With is plantsfrom coast to coast, .ve are now engaged in the largest expansio nprogr .mmie of our 74-year history .
