Dean Buchanan stated, however,that the change in procedure doesnot alter the fact that ChristmasExams will play a large part in marksgiven on final exams in April.

"The decision was made in orderto give first year students a chanceto adapt themselves to the Universitysystem," the Dean said. "I do notthink we can judge a student in-capable of carrying on his studies onthe basis of three months work."

Friday, February 6, 1948THE DAILY UBYSSEYPAGE 2

The wisdom in relaxing the restrictionson election campaigning was clearly indicatedWednesday when nearly 5000 students flockedto the polling stations to turn in an all timerecord vote total.

The activity on the part of each cam-paign manager was doubtless not entirelyresponsible for this record but certainly fewstudents could have been completely unawareof the election in the face of 110 foot banners,

Big Dave Brousson, the soienceman'schoice, was beaming and back-clapping hap-pily yesterday morning as his supporterscongratulated him on his election to theAlma Mater Society presidency, while DaveWilliams, his competitor in the race, received"good fight closely lost" sentiments on hisnear victory.

The election of the jovial, six foot-fourengineer marks an important trend in theways of student government. Brousson is 28years old, is married and has two children,one six and one four. Dave's administrationshould follow the pattern set by Grant Living-stone who is 25 and of a mature adult turnof mind.

At the University of Alberta, GeorgeHartling is the president of the Student Coun-cil at 35, and represents the best example ofthe trend that has been expressed at everyschool enjoying the advantages of self-govern-ment.

It is abundantly evident that studentgovernment is no longer children's govern-ment.

FIGNEWTON SMARTENS UPFignewton Tadpole is the practical type.

Only the other day, Fignewton decided it wastime he stopped trying to fool himself.

There wasn't much use trying to foolhimself any longer, he reasoned, because hewas getting too smart to be fooled by anybodyas stupid as he was.

For more than a year Fignewton had beenfooling himself about all sorts of things.Mostly he fooled himself about his homework.For quite a while he was sucker enough tofall for the line. But the other day Fignewtonsmartened up.

Before this, Fignewton had found anendless number of ingenious ways of foolinghimself about his homework.

On Monday Fignewton told himself itwas useless to do any homework. After all,he had a whole week ahead of him to lethis lecturer's ideas crystallize in his mind.

Fignewton usually spent Tuesday andWednesday telling himself that he was bracinghimself for an all-out effort during the nextfew days.

Thursday was just a blurr on his calen-dar, and by the time it was Friday, Fignewtonrealized there was no sense trying to do awhole week's work in one night.

And anybody who would expect a red-blooded young university student like Fig-newton Tadpole to work on a Saturday night—well, anybody who expected that just didn'tknow Fignewton.FIGNEWTON HAS RESISTANCE

Sunday is a day of rest, and althoughFignewton often had to call upon his powersof resistance to keep it as such, he ultimatelymanaged somehow. An exhilerating hike upthe mountain, Fignewton found, was as gooda way as any to keep Sunday the day of restit was intended to be.

Thus every Monday morning found Fig-newton more determined than ever to getdown to work. And every Monday he wasfarther behind.

But the root of the whole trouble did

touring bands, and main mall sideshows.

The close equality of the two candidates,Daves Brousson and Williams would explain

a part of the ballot flood.

In any event it is all to the good and theonly people who thought otherwise were the

business is a serious matter and must betreated seriously.

Aside from the day to day responsibilityof the purse-string control, student govern-ment has also, a perhaps more significant,trust arising from the democratic methodof government employed in our country.

At the risk of introducing a suggestionof high-school enthusiasm, we would point outthat the leadership training gained by offi-cials in the AMS will be of considerablevalue to the administration of the nation. Thisthesis applies to the governed as well as tothe governing. Participation in voting andgeneral meetings is one of the best possiblemeans of bringing home the true significanceof the ideals upon which a democratic govern-ment must be based.

Dave Brousson is facing a big job. Hethinks he can do it. More than 2500 studentswho voted for him and only slightly fewer whovoted against him wil doubtless concur.

The Daily Ubyssey wishes to extend onbehalf, we are sure, of the entire studentbody, the very best wishes for a successfulyear at the helm of the AMS.

not sprout from Fignewton's intentions. Hisstudy timetable was the evil, choking weed.

It wasn't until just the other day thatFignewton realized why neither he nor hisstudy timetable were working. His timetablewas too idealistic. It said what he was sup-posed to do, not what what he was going todo. And it was too vague.

On his timetable Fignewton had putdown Philosophical Mathematics for Mondaynight, Graphic Anatomy for Tuesday night,Demonstrative Polygamy for Wednesdaynight, and so on • . . But no details.

FIGNEWTON FOOLED EASYIt was very easy, then, for him to fool

himself about whether or not he was followinghis timetable. When he sat on the edge of hisbed, idly clipping his toenails, he told himselfhe was meditating philosophically. When hedropped into the pool hall for a game or two,he always played with the numbered balls.That was Mathematics. And often on Satur-day nights he studied anatomy, in his ownquiet way.

But now all that has changed. Fignewton'stimetable•has the realistic approach, A typi-cal night's schedule reads like this:

"Read comics. Phone girl friend. Sulk.Open text book. Light cigarette, Close textbook. Get drink of water. Open text bool,Butt cigarette, Close text book. Make trip tobathroom. Open text book, Sulk. Clean earswith pencil, Make trip to bathroom. Examineself in mirror. Close text book. Light cigarette.Make trip to bathroom. Open text book, Paretoenails, Make trip to bathroom. Phone girlfriend. Sulk. Make trip to bathroom. Go tobed."FIGNEWTON IS UP TO DATE

Already the beneficial effects of this newstudy timetable are beginning to show. Fig-newton is up to date on the comics. Histoenails are neatly pared. His text book isgetting that well-used look,

But most important of all, he is followingthe schedule to the letter.

His cunscience is clear.

VICTORIA STRONG

The weekend battle with the Crim-son Tide will be between two of themost powerful teams ever seen onthe coast. Victoria is considered es-pecially powerful after their win overVancouver Reps on Boxing Day anda 7-6 thriller over the Birds last monthin the Capitol.

Two of the stars that gave the'Birds the most trouble in Victorialast month will be back in strip.They are big reliable fullback TornMeKeachie, who accounted for allthe Islanders scoring in the last meet-ing, and speedy Dick Chungraneswill bear watching on the three line.BIRDS CONFIDENT

Coach Al Laithewaite's student squadhas been in training steadily since thelast meeting, which was the first B.C.defeat suffered by the locals in threeyears.

Among the lineup will be many wellknown sport personalities includingDoug Reid, Russ Latham, Stan Clark,Don Nesbitt, Jack Armour, BudSpiers Barry Morris and Al Carlyle.

Hilary Wotherspoon will be on deckfor the kicking, and big Bill Dunbarwill be taking care of the all-importantfullback slot. The weight of stoppingVictoria's McKeachie will fall heavilyon Dunbar, who will be handling thebackfield kicking.

Game time is 3:15, with a localprelim scheduled for 2 p.m.

UBC Pucksters DropThird Straight Tilt

Thunderbird hockey men droppedtheir third game in as many startsWednesday night when they were'shut out by the high-flying NewWestminster Cubs, 4-0. The game wasfast and rough after a sloppy firstperiod, with the sin bin well populat-ed throughout the contest.

Playing without the services ofwinger Bobby Koch, the Birds show-ed lack of organization in the firstcanto, failing to get men in positionfor pass-outs in front of the Cubs'net,

After House had been beaten on ashot from Reid at the thirteen min-ute mark, UBC were given a chanceto tie the count or go ahead whentwo penalties were handed out toReid and Petrusky, leaving the cam-pus team with a two man advantage,but they were able to lay only oneshot on Milne in the New Westminstercage,

The sandwich session produced abetter brand of hockey from bothclubs with UBC crowding for thefirst six minutes mainly clue to theforechecking of Freddy Andrew andthe stiikhandling of Hass Young.

The last period was a repeat of thesecond with Kirk getting the onlycounter at the 17:00 minute mark,

STOP THE TIDE!

Even though the basketballing Thunderbirds may be taking

a rest for the weekend hoopla fans will find no let-up on the

UBC maples.In fact Saturday night's game, between the Chiefs and the

itinerant Cloverleafs, promises to be just as good as anything

that the North Pacific Conference can put on.Last time these two teams met it

was a tooth and nail struggle all theway with the Leafs holding a slightedge in the last half to gain a 49-43victory,

Since then however the highly-touted cannery men dropped a matchto the lowly North Shore Stacys sothat their stock has slipped a fewpegs.ROBERTSON RETURNS

Certainly the Dominion championswill be out to recoup their lostprestige and with ace pivot manSandy Robertson back in the line-upthey will be an altogether differentsquad .

Chiefs on the other hand have play-ed no games since their last meetingwith the Leafs and promise to bewell rested for Saturday's tilt.TOP NOTCH FORM

Coach Doug Whittle has put theStudents through several gruellingpractices during the last week andsideline observers predict that theIndians will be in top notch form.

As a warm up for the Leaf match,the Chiefs will tangle with Ted Mil-ton's youthful Arrows tonight in theKing Ed gym.

Tomorrow night's tilt with the Leafswill get underway at 8 p.m. in theVarsity gym and as a pass featurewill be free to all students.
