In this issue of the Ubyssey you receive a report o f the work of the Student Campaign Committee, the bod y authorised by the Alma Mater Society to carry on th e Campaign to remove both limitation and the increase i n fees at this University . For the past seven months the twelve members and associate members of this commit- tee have used every resource at their demand in you r interests and in the interests of the University and th e Province of British Columbia . The Board of Governors imposed limitation and increase d fees in all faculties by $25 .00 on Jan . 24, 1938, to be effective thi s session . In the opinion of the Board serious conditions of over - crowding existed, all possible methods of internal organizatio n had been followed out, the Government had refused aid, and th e academic standard of this University was being impaired . Th e Board believed that quality of instruction and adequate librar y and laboratory facilities for the best qualified students shoul d take precedence over the number of matriculated students wh o might wish to enter this University . in the opinion of the Boar d an increase in fees was necessary to provide funds for increase d departmental appropriations to maintain salary levels as that o f other government employees and to employ senior professors, t o provide additioeal grants to the library, to provide for repair s to the existing buildings, to provide for a suspense rued, and t o set up a Bursary Puncl so that students of outstanding scholarshi p with limited financial resources would be not debarred from at - tending this University . The remainder of the increased incom e fees would make up the decrease in revenue due to limitation . The Student Campaign Committee, in addition to establishin g a publicity program to gain the support of the people of this prov- ince for the University, have sought to establish the principle that : The University of British Columbia, the sin le state - supported institution of higher learning in the Provinc e of British Columbia, must provide the accommodatio n and adequate academic, professional, occupational, voca - tional, and agricultural instruction of University standar d to every qualified young person in this province and tha t such provision is in the best interests of the people an d the welfare of the Province of British Columbia . in other words , There should be no limitation of qualified students a t the University of British Columbia . fir order to establish this premise the Student Campaign Commit - tee carried on a five-point programme : 1. The University must make use of all 'tvailahle aeeommo- dation by re-arranging the time-tables, placing lectures in th e afternoon and laboratories in the morning, -to make the greates t use of lecture rooms, laboratories, and the library . 2.

At a meeting of the Student Cam

Committee, Tuesday of this week it was moved that ta Board ofGovernors be asked to suspend payment of fen unti lafter the fall session of the legislature has had an oppor-tunity to pass on increased appropriations for the Uni-versity of British Columbia.

BY IMMIX mum_Nearly eight months of woe in the struggle for decrease d

fees and unrestricted registration at U .D.C. is, in brief, the storyof the Student Campaign Committee appointed last February. Alonger story, in detail, is told elsewhere in this issue, but nowherein it is there a hint of the tremendous task that was undertaken,or the vast amount of work done by certain members of the com-mittee.

Half the battle was won, unconditionally, when three of usreturned from Victoria Sept. 2 with the announcement that limi-tation was to be no more . That announcement was the Immediat eresult of a day-long conference with Premier Pattullo and his cab-inet.

The Committee, after studying whatinformation it had regarding university finance, feels that th eonly avenue left is that of increased government support forU.B.C. Furthermore, it feels, with a reasonable certainty, that thi swill be forthcoming.'LONG FIGHT

There have been few sensationa lhighlights in the Committee's work .History of the group has been asteady struggle for recognition ofthe right of every young man andwoman In British Columbia to en-ter the univerrr~~,it)', and once there ,to receive an 'TMation for fees thatare reasonable .

The univertilty must, of course ,continue to expand. The Committeerecognized this in Its efforts to hav elimitation removed . The Board ofGovernors recognised It by insistin gon additional revenue to carry o nadministrative work . New profes-sors have been placed on the staff ,buildings have been repaired an dimproved, and other routine ex-penditures have placed the board I na position where it must demandmore money to work with .

The source of this additional re.venue, however, should not be th estudents. By paying the same feesas last year, students would be, Inthe opinion of the Committee, do-ing their share.

THE UBYSSE Y

Campaign Committee ReporIt was generally understood ,

and published in the "Ubyssey, "before the end of the last ses-sion that the committee wouldreport by press and radio onAugust 15, 1938, on the outcom eof the Campaign . The Commit -tee wishes to explain that it wasnot expedient to report at thistime since issues were pendin gon which a report would not b opolitic, and because the Cam-paign was still in balance andno definite outcome had bee nreached .

It was felt that it would befar more in the interests of th estudents to continue negotiation squietly, and to give a full repor tin the month of September.SUMMARY OF EVENTSTO THE MONTH OF APRIL

The related events subsequent t othe announcement of the Board ofGovernors on January 24, 1988 tha tlimitation of attendance and In-creases of tees would be put Intoeffect, up to April are well enoug hknown to members of the Alm aMater Society. A large Committee,the original Student Campaign Com-mittee, was formed by resolution o fthe Alma Mater Society January 78 ,to include: John Bird, Robert Smith ,Malcolm Brown, John Brynelsen ,David Carey, Lyall Vine, Mary Black ,Peggy Fox, Jean Meredith, EdwardDisher, Morrie Belkin, Kemp Ed-monds, Howard McPhee, CharlesCampbell, Clifford Robson, Eva napRoberts, Derwin Baird, Pau lPaine, and Lillian Boyd .

A petition to the Provincial Gov-ernment was prepared and takenby a delegation to Victoria. Fundswere obtained by voluntary assign-ment. of caution money from thestudent.,The Campaign at this time re-

ceived much publicity, both involun-tartly through the daily press, an dvoluntarily through student speechesat meetings and by radio. Neverthe-less no success was definitely ach-ieved, and on February 14 the largecommittee was dissolved, and thepresent committee of five took over.

The policy of the Campaign under-went a change at this time, settlin gdown to work on a long term basis ,with considerable research underwa yas to the capacity of the University,and as to conditions at other uni-versities in Canada . A publicity pro-gram was formulated to gain thesupport of the people of the Provinc efor the University.THE "BRIEF"

Late in April a twenty-eight page"Brief," compiled by the Committee ,was submitted to the Board of Gov-ernors regarding :

"The Limitation of Student En-rolment and the Increase of Tut-tion Fees"; together with sugges-tions for "The Provision of Ade-quate Accommodation and the Fin-ancing of Necessary Expenditure sof the University of British Colum-Ma . "The Student "Brief" was presented

to the President and the appointe dCommittee of the Board and thereply of the Board was received o nJune 1 .

The representations contained I nthe "Brief" and the replies of th eBoard may be summarized :

1, General Considerations on Lim-itation and Fees :

(a) Students whose academic rec-ord In high school has been only fai rhave graduated from University tobecome valuable professional andbusiness men .

(b) The rights of higher educatio nshould not be denied to personswhose parents have contributed tothis university through taxation .

(o) University revenue will be seri-ously reduced when limitation comesinto full effect. The Board must the nbe anticipating either (1) Increase sin Government grants, or, (2) Fur-ther increases in fees .

If the former in anticipated ther eis no need of raising the fees ; if thelatter course is followed . U.B .C. will

be "a small rich man's college," sup -ported in part by public money .

(d) Fixed costs will remain th esame for a smaller number of stu-dents . Per capita costa will increase.This is poor economy for the prov-ince .

(e) Persons upon whom the bur -den of elevated fees necessarily fall sare those who can least afford theextra coat . 80% of the men, who formtwo-thirds of the enrolment, financ ethemselves In whole or in part bypart-time and summer employment.At least 85% of the women mus tearn part of their expenses . Corn-bine with Increased fees the diffi-culty of obtaining such employment ,especially this year, and some of th emost desirable students are debar -red .

(f) The relatively small sum se taside for bursaries and new scholar-ships, set aside from student fees ,will assist only a small proportion o fthose needing assistance In thefuture.

(g) The modern progressive stat erequires not only educated leadersbut an educated following and there-fore demands increasing numbers o funiversity trained men .

(h) Unlveretly attendance has bee nincreasing at a rate of 9% per an -num. Over a period of four years1280 qualified young people of Bri-tish Columbia will be denied a uni-versity education under the contem-plated restrictions .

(i) The policy of fixing enrolmen tand restricting attendance is analo-gous to cutting down the hand to fi tthe glove, instead of enlarging th eglove to fit the hand . The policy 1sretrogressive .

(j) If more students are desirou sof and able to attend U .B .C. at thepresent rate of fees, the presen tfacilities) should be utilized to thegreatest possible extent and arrange-ments made for future accommoda-tion to meet that demand .

The Board did not contradict thegeneral contentions of the "Brief" .The only comment was that the yrealized 1200 students would not beable to attend during the next fou ryears .

A. A Survey of Overcrowding : .The "Brief" submitted tables show-

ing the use of all classrooms and lab-oratories . The situation In each fac-ulty was extensively discussed. Itwas found that changes in curricu-lum and timetable had accommodat-ed the present enrolment in AppliedScience and Agriculture . Availabl etwo and three-hour sequences in theFaculty of Arts and Science werepointed out .

It was found that 888 three-hou rand 00 two-hour sequences were inuse or an efficiency of 80.8%. The"Brief" pointed out the availabilityof 8A three-hour and 70 two-hoursequences. A committee appointedby the Board found 48 additionalthree-hour and 07 two-hour se-quences available or use of 70% .The discrepancy is accounted fo rby the student* pointing out al lavailable sequences In the mainUniversity buildings.The "Brief" pointed out that very

few of the laboratories were occu-pied in the mornings. No commen twas made on this by the Board .

8. Re-organization of Timetable :The "Brief" recommended that

more of the lectures be given in theafternoons and that provision b emade for morning laboratory periodsby the employment of capable assist-ants . It was contended that the hoursof use of the Library would be moreequitably distributed by this arrange-ment . It was further suggested thatallotment of lecture rooms shouldbe in accordance with the numbe rof students in the various classesutilizing all the main buildings .

The Committee of the Deans, ap-pointed by the Board agreed on th efollowing points :

(1) The present number in Art sand Science and in Agriculture to-gether with the normal Increase fo r1988.89 can be accommodated nextyear by certain revisions In time-table,

(2) The total number in SecondYear Applied Science qualifying un-der the new minimum standards wil lprobably not exceed 180 and can b eaccommodated .

(3) The present academic stand-ards can be maintained with in-

creased registration if adjustmentsare made by the re-arrangement ofthe timetable and adequate assist-ance provided .

(4) The limitation In number. InNursing and in Teacher Training re -main as at present, i .e . 20 and 80respectively . Certain reservationswere made :

(a) No assurances can be give nthat the resulting Increases in thesecond year in 1989 .40 and there-after can be accommodated alongwith the normal corresponding in-creases in the first year . In otherwords, limitation can be postponedfor probably not more than a yea runless increased accommodation ca nbe provided or In in the offing.

(b) Additional staff and assistanc ewill be required to handle the ex-pected Increase above the number i nthe present First Year .

4 . Revision of Courses :The "Brief" pressed tot revision of

courses along the lines of modernHigher Education . It was felt thatgeneral courses in the Sciences wouldresult In considerable alleviation oflaboratory congestion and provid efor more desirable undergraduatetraining.

The Board's Committee reportedstudent statements to be correct andthat changes were under considera-tion, but would not be Implementeduntil 1989.40. It stated such revisio nwas desirable from an academicstandpoint .

8 . Finances :The Committee of the Board had

indicated to the Student Committe ethat they must have an additiona l$38 .000 to operate the University I n1938-39, which taken with $15,000 t oprovide from loss of fees clue to pro-posed limitation made an additiona l$50,000 to be derived from studen tfees ,

The "Brief" noted that fees fromincreased enrolment fall $5,000 t o$10,000 short of the proposed expen-diture and would not meet the am-ounts required for additional staffand equipment.

It was pointed out that this neces-sary sum, Including money for addedstaff and equipment estimated at $2:1-$80,000, could be provided as an ad-dition to the government grant b yarranging for a supplementarybudget for 1988-89 to meet the aboveextra cost .

The reply of the Board to thesesuggestions was that they had n odefinite assurance of a supplement-ary budget and that they would notincur a deficit in annual operationsas section No. 41 of the Universit yAct precludes such a procedure with -out the consent of the Lieutenant-Governor in Council .

6 . Building Programme :The "Brief" recommended that th e

Board of Governors make everyeffort toward the erection of a Pre-ventive Medicine building before th eUniversity Year 1989-40. This build-ing was urged because :

Funds would be available from theConnaught Laboratories in the form

ORDER YOUR CORSAGEon way to schoo l

Pick it up on way home

POINT GREY FLOWERSHOP

be completed within one year.Funds would be made available for

research and study from the Rocke-feller Foundation .

The Provincial Health Service swould be adequately housed.

The building would provide for in -creased accommodation at the Uni-versity until arrangements for aregular building programme couldbe completed .

It was pointed out that every effortmust be made to arrange for a com-plete building programme if theUnl-versity is to progress and meet therequirements of the province of Bri-tish Columbia.

The President's report to theBoard, of his westing with the Min-ister of Education stated that theMinister indicated that the Govern-ment might possibly erect a buildingfor Preventive Medicine and PublicHealth in which there would be moreaccommodation than was actuall yneeded for these two purposes andasked that the attitude toward thesuggestion that provision be mad efor Home Economics in this buildin gfor the time being, be ascertained .

7. Maintenance of Standards :The "Brief" concurs with th e

Board in their belief that the mos timportant responsibility of the Boardlies in the maintenance of the Aca-demic standards of the University .

The students believe though, Chitthe most important determinant o facademic work lies in the attitud eand work of the staff of the Univer-sity and in student response. Thestudents of earlier days set the stan-dards under adverse conditions andthose of today can follow their chal-lenge .

The Board's announced policy ofemploying more senior men shoulddo much to maintain or regain ou rstandards. In addition the co-opera-tion and determination of all con-cerned, to proceed and progress un -

der difficulties, cannot be too strong-ly urged .SUMMARY OF THE REPLIESOF THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS

1. Under the circumstances theBoard could do nothing but proceedunder the resolution regarding limi-tation, fees, scholarships and burs-aries and according to the budge tadopted for 1988.89 .

2. The Deane would proceed wit hrevision of timetables as outlined i nthe "Brief", for 1988 .89.

3. The revised courses would notcome into effect until 1989.40.

4. Academic standards will be ele-vated by the employment of seniormen in 1988 .39.

5. Unless a supplementary gran tis forthcoming or some other suit-able arrangement Is made for pro-viding for necessary expendituresduring 1938-39 other than incurringa deficit, the elevation in fees wouldbe enforced for the coming year .

8. Unless definite assurance i sgiven that a building such as th ePreventive Medicine Building will b eerected before 1989.40, the Board feltit wise to Institute limitation at th e

time en the grounds that if admis-sion to all is granted for the comin gyear would be no guarantee tha tthey could be accommodated durin gthe following year .

The Board realized that thei rcourse of action was grave an dmight entail serious consequences .It seemed to be the feeling of th emembers that the Board would re-consider its decisions if future devel -opments materialized along the line ssuggested by the Student "Brief . "

In addition to.the 10 Tables in th e"Brief" the Committee gatheredother data concerning the registra-tion and Income of the University .

Table "A"—Showed the increase inregistration for the past five years.Registration has increased 50% sinc e1934-4 or 12.5% per year.

Table "W'—Showed Increase in reg-istration and fees of the Universitysince 1915. It also showed the am -ount of Government Grant per yea rsince 1920.

Table "C"—Showed details of reg-istration, grants, income from fees,per capita costs . and percentage ofcost born by the government durin gthe past ten years . Under Estimate s(1) were found probable figures forthe year 1988.39 should limitationand Increased fees be effected andunder Estimates (2) the probablefigures should accommodation andfinances be provided .THE MEMORANDUM AND TH ETEN DOLLAR PLA N

On receipt of the Board's replies tothe "Brief" and of their decision toapply limitation and higher fees, th eCommittee turned its pleas to th eProvincial Government. Carson Mc -Guire was elected Director of Activi-ties for the Summer.

The Committee prepared a "Men aorandwn" and a "Ten Dollar Planfor financing Aocommodatlon andOperatlon" McGuire personally de -livered these to the cabinet, andexplained the Committee's stand.

THE MEMORANDUMThe "Memorandum" outlined the

substance of the "Brief" and th eBoard's replies . It gave the followin gas the objectives of the Student Cam -paign Committee :

1. To gain the support of thepeople of the province for the Uni -versity of British Columbia .

2. To remove all restrictions saveHigh School Matriculation . upon theattendance at the University.

3. To maintain fees at an equit -able level to permit attendance o fstudents of restricted resources.

4. To work for complete utiliza-tion of all facilities compatible wit ha high standard of academic work .

8 . To press for revision of Unlver-ity courses along the lines of moder nhigher education .

6. To find a solution of the prob -lem of financing the annual operat-ing expenses of the University .

7. To establish a planned buildingprogramme to provide adequate ac -commodation at the University .

8. To maintain and elevate thehigh scholastic standards of the Uni -versity.

9. To foster endowments for build -ings, equipment, research . scholar-ships and operation of the Univer -sity.

10. To facilitate the erection of aUnion Building as a campus hom efor students, graduates and faculty.

The "Memorandum" suggested tha tthe real issue in University Policywas between :

1. The provision of adequate ac-commodation and the financing ofnecessary expenditures at the Uni -versity to permit all qualified stu -dents to attend a state-supported in -stitution, an d

2. The enforcement of a policy o flimitation of attendance and increaseof fees which will debar an increas -ing number of qualified studentseach year from attending an insti -tution which receives support frompublic funds, and stated that it wasup to the Board of Governors an dthe Provincial Government to se ethat the latter policy was not effect -ed, on the grounds that such a policywould be detrimental to the futur edevelopment of the University andto the beat interests of the peopl eand province of British Columbia .

The "Memorandum" concluded :"Limitation and increase of fees

will debar at least 300 students fromattending next year. More than 200Senior Matriculation students wh otake first year university work winbe barred from Vancouver City Hig hSchools next year because of lack o faccommodation . Under present con -ditions these 500 or more student swill have to leave Vancouver to ob-tain a university course, or go towork, or join the unemployed lists .Because they lack advanced trainin geven If they do obtain work they will'force people out of the type of em -ployment that does not require grea tpreparation . It is certainly a moreeconomic procedure . to provide uni-versity accommodation for thesepeople at $128 per capita cost thanto pay their relief coatis . It is desir-able and economical that all firstyear University work be given Van -couver students at the Universitythan at scattered places in the city .Adequate university accommodatio nis one of the soundest investmentsthe province can make . "

The "Ten Dollar Plan" was a pro-posal to set up a Building Fund onthe following basis :

1. Students contribute an addi -tional $10.000 per 'session or $2 .0 0per 3 unit-course toward the Build -ing Fund,

2. The Government to enter int oan agreement with the Alma MaterSociety or make other suitable ar -rangements to contribute annualsums equal to the total student con -tributions to the fund as in (1) .

4. From private interests by re -callable bond Issue at lowest pos-sible rates considering security off-ered by the Building Fund and theshort term of the offering .

The interest payments on the out-stanfiing borrowings would be pro-vided by one or more of the follow-ing methods :

(1) Payment by the Board of Gov-ernors from the annual income,

(2) Payment from the Buildin gFund annual contributions .

(8) Payment by the Governmentof British Columbia .

Immediate capital expenditures fo rnecessary buildings and equipmen t

'should be made to meet the needs o fthe University.

The Plan suggested also that theGovernment grant to the Universityshould be on a statutory basis, tosave annual troubles, and suggesteda baste for such statutory grant . Thearrangement suggested is as follows :

(1) The government grant shall be$5 .00 for every $4 .00 of income fromstudent fees and registration unti lthe sum of $400,000 is reached .

(2) Thereafter, the governmentgrant is to be $1 .00 for every $1 .0 0from student sources .

The "Ten Dollar Plan" would ofcourse be alternative to the presen ttwenty-five dollar increase of fees.The Committee feels that asking th estudents for an added ten dollar stor such a constructive project woul dbe justified, where the presen ttwenty-five dollars I . not.

Estimates of enrolment, annua lgrants and income, and buildingfunds were appended to the plan .They were based on careful study o fall available information regardingthe University.SUMMER NEGOTIATIONS

The Committee met several timesduring the summer. McGuire con-tinued negotiations with the Govern-ment and with the Governors .

The government expressed greatinterest in the "Ten Dollar Plan,"and the Committee is hopeful that ,if a loan can be arranged next yea runder the Dominion "Municipal Im-provements Act," the Plan, or onevery similar to It, will be put intoeffect .REMOVAL OF LIMITATION

The immediate objectives of th eCommittee have been twofold : tohave limitation of enrollment re-scinded, and to have fees kept a ttheir former level . After representa-tions made by the Committee in Aug-ust the cabinet strongly recommend-ed to a Committee of the Board o fGovernors to withhold limitation .

On September 7 a special meetingof the Board passes the followingresolution :

"WHEREAS, a request has bee nreceived from the Government of th eProvince of British Columbia se tforth in the following communica-tion from the Minister of Education :

Premier T. D. Patullo stated to-day that the Government was re-questing the Board of Governors ofthe University not to carry out limi-tation of enrollment as proposed .

The Premier stated that the Boardwere apprehensive that second an dthird year work would find Impos -

A

FRESHMENFor many years the welcome that is tendered to the Freshme n

class at this time of year is accompanied by a more sober note o fadvice. This advice has concerned the actions of the studen tthroughout his four years on the campus ; it has likewise concernedhis attitude toward his university. Never before has it been sonecessary that the freshman heed this advice for never before ha shis attitude toward his university been so important . .

The year 1938.39 will be written in the history of the univer-sity as the most important year since 1925 .

This past summer the students took into their own hands re-sponsibility for the progress of their university. It is you, theFreshman class, who must, within the next three years, take ove rthat responsibility. Lose no time in becoming thoroughly ac-quainted with the campus affairs! Within the year you must voteon many weighty problems and It is not fair to the students wh ohave gone before you that you register your vote on these matterswithout an adequate knowledge of their implications .

INTRODUCTION.The first issue that contains the

first column of a novice columnis tis bound to be a hideous success, ora dismal failure. So, you can im-agine how keenly we are preparingto observe reactions and commentsof veteran Ubyesey critics on th emorning of this masterful column'sagonising birth .

The title means nothing, the no mde plume of the writer means noth-ing, and probably the column meansnothing. But that I. the way of acolumn. We are attempting to dis-guise our identity for th• first fifteenminutes of term, and after that ,come what may, we are ready forthe best or the worst .

POLICY?We had hoped to outline In great

detail the future policy of our crispcomments on contemporary life, butwhen it came to the awful momentwe realised that such a task was ex-traordinarily difficult. For one thingthere are at least several publics tha twe are trying to write for, and wehaven't as yet been able to fully dif-ferentiate between the requirementsof each .

If we are to please our graciousSenior section, we must be severe,austere, sharp, unwavering, conceit-ed and ignorant in all our work.Our humor must be impossible—fo rwe can't think of another term todescribe the average humor of a sen-ior !

If we were to restrict our poten-tial public to the aristocratic Juniors,the adolescent animals of the cam-pus, we must be bitter, radical, flam -ing, and destructive in every possiblemanner that you or we can conceive .

If we choose the demure Sopho-mores as our exclusive field for ex-ercise :—But then we wouldn't, s othere is no need to continue ou rdrooling !

FROSH.Now the Freshmen demand a spe-

cial section all to themselves . Toour aging eyes they look, as usual be-low average, and abnormally insub-ordinate. First we would on behal fof three quarters of the Dominion ofPoint Grey welcome them, and tel lthem that life lies ahead of them ,that they must make the most o ftheir University life, because i tdoesn't last long, (until Christmasordinarily), that they must workhard, be honest to Seniors, be sports -manlike with Professors, (this meansto go to a lecture at leant once inyour university career, otherwis ethey might forget, and fail you), andthat they must live for the day whenthey can retire and tell their great-grand-progeny all about their initi-ation .

o'clock, have been moved. The Faculty has ruled that there shal lbe no lectures or laboratories between 12 :30 and 1 :30 and thatall laboratory periods must cease at 5 :30 .

The Committee has not been successful in lowerin gthe fees to the level of 1937-38. It has offered, on behalfof the student body, a compromise solution for the presen tsession. It has suggested that the fees be increased $10 .00only and that the Board of Governors request the Govern-ment to make a supplementary grant at the Fall sessionof the Legislature to complete the amount required fo rthe 1938-39 budget meanwhile setting back the date ofpayment of fees until the Legislature has had time to ac tupon the request . The information that the Committe ehas at hand leads them to believe that the increased in -come from the $10 .00 raise in fees and the possibility o fincreased attendance would make this Government gran tto obviate the large increase in fees at V .B.C., a compara-tively small sum . No definite amount can be establisheduntil registration figures are available .It is the earnest belief of your Committee that the problem s

of accommodation and finance at this University cannot be settle duntil all bodies concerned agree upon :

1. A "Building Plan" which would set up funds so tha tthe University would have sufficient money available every tw oor three y0nrs to provide for buildings and their equipment a sfacilities are required by this growing institution .

2. A plan whereby the money for annual operation woul dbe provided by a minimum annual grant for fixed costs plu sstudent fees and Government grants on a scale to be determine daccording to the enrollment to obviate the recurring increases i nfees and difficulties in fixing the Government grant to the Uni-versity.

Your Committee feels that it has established the prin-ciple that there shall be no limitation now or in the futureat this University and it earnestly hopes to establish ajust and equitabe scale of fees to be paid by studentsattending this University.

Your obedient servant ,J. CARSON MoGUIRE ,

President ,THE ALMA MATER SOCIETY .

BRITISH COLUMBIA is still a youngcountry, but in the University of BritishColumbia are being built up ideals andtraditions which will be passed to futur egenerations .

Each year has seen the broadening andwidening of the scope of this noble insti-tution, until today it takes its placeamong the older seats of learning.

The people of British Columbia may wellbe proud of their University—as a sym-bol of the development of this greatProvince.

THE UBYSSE Y

IT'S MADE DAILY O FFRESH ORANGES RADIO PROGRAM.

With considerable pleasure wenow desert the bewildered world o fFreshmen, and dive exultantly intothe realm of commentarianiatic con-versation. Last year, as no Fresh -man will tell you, there was a week-ly radio programme, broadcast fro mthe Studio of CJOR in Vancouver ,B .C. The authority that held thereins was one Malcolm Brown, aswarthy but popular Council Mem-ber at the time. The program wa sgood, but not good enough . It wassuggested that they might discon-tinue after about the fifth effort.

Sneering students on the campus .particularly those that had nothingto do with the radio work criticised ,ridiculed, and attacked . But theydid not suggest. They apparentlywere not aware that a Universityrun on the best principles of Dem-ocracy depends upon its student pop-ulation for a certain amount of con-structive suggestion. Of course thelatter never appears, and the cam-pus still has to be run by a 'chosentwelve' of overworked Individuals .

But to return to our subject, thi syear sees a revolution in the radi oorganisation. A Producer had beenappointed by. Students' Council wh oIs in a receptive mood for sugges-tions, but who has already such awealth of ideas that others may b eunnecessary. We present Ozzie Dur-kin .

To work under Ozzie on script isone Bob Thomson, an able and gen-ial scribe. The script will flouris hon a background of New York an dVancouver radio experience, and ca nbe expected to be of excellent call-bre . October 7th is the first day forthe programme, with "Varsity Time "floating over the air from 8.16 p .m .until 8 .45 p .m. We wish the radiostaff well . Amen.

NEWS.For the benefit of every Freshma n

on the campus we feel that it i sworth our while to narrate the fol-lowing little yarn . We were in th eCaf. taking a spot of needless stim-ulant, when there hove Intel sight abeautiful member of the Students 'Council's femininity . Says we toher, in an innocent voice :

"And who do you suppose will bethe Secretary for your Council thi syear? "

Says the authority : "I shouldn'tlike to voice my opinion on such asubject at this time! "

So it looks to us though the Coun-cil will be well up on traditional ab-sconce of commitments on any sub-ject . That, bairns, is a good thing .

Freshmen at U .B .C. do not knowhow lucky they are. Down at th eUniversity of Idaho the initiationperiod, termed there, platonically,"Freshman Days," amounts to onl ythree days, beginning with meetings ,conferences, etc., and ending with aFrosh Mixer In their Memorial gym-nasium .

Here, on the Point Grey campu sthe verdant ones may cavort withtheir traditional foes, the sophs, fora whole ten days, with a bonfire, Ill ypond, and a really swish receptionall rolled Into one .

This, my little ones, is a distinctprivilege, so make the best of it, an ddon't break any windows, or breakdown the hedge around the lily pon din front of the library.' Use thedoors and fight out under the blue ,and figure out a trajectory methodfor depositing your foes into thebriny . . . or something.

the eastern headquarters of Canadi-an University Press has been work-ing on the scheme to connect int oan efficient system the Radio Clubsin major universities across Canada.

In all other Institutions workin gin the hook-up radio experts hav ebeen provided with proper facilitiesfor their work and are ready to gointo operation, but, at U .B .C. loca lairwave experts, backed by consid-erable student interest, are withoutadequate quarter . still .

The new service offered gratin bythe radio men Is one which promisesto give Canadian colleges, and U .B .C.in partloular,the most up to date an defficient student prose service in th eworld today . Also, the service willbe considerably cheaper and fasterthan that afforded hitherto by tele-graph companies .

We hope that university and stu-dent authorities] will see their wayclear to provide adequate facilitiesin the near future .

The photographs are to be takenby Artona Studio, and the sittingswill be held in the Gymnasium . Acomprehensive system of posters hasbeen set up on the campus, directingthe bewildered novices to the campusstudio.

The customary arrangements re-garding the photographs is in forceagain this year. The student will begiven a framed copy of himself, an dwill in addition have the joy of see-ing his fair features In the Immortalpages of the Totem.MAKE APPOINTMENTS.

Feature New Campus CafeStudents to Choose Name by Contes t

The U.B.C. campus will be a whirl of mixed metaphors onMonday when a modernistic and efficiently equipped "mystery "restaurant opens its doors to students at the (fables on the corne rof McGill Road and University Boulevard .

Smartly decorated in red, black and pastel grey, backed bybright chromium fittings, the new cafe offers to students a muc hneeded service, that of full course meals or the light snack at an ytime of the day from 7 .00 a .m.-5.00 p .m., either at the counter orat one of the tastefully arranged tables .

Formerly known as the Silver Lining, the Salisbury LodgeAnnex, the new ultra-modern cafe and dining-room, now merge sits identity in the general current of varsity life to offer all stu-dents at the University foods fit for a connoisseur, courteously andquickly served in pleasing surroundings .

In fact it has everything but a name . . . and that the stu-dents at U.B.C. are asked to select . Mrs. Watt, whose main desireis to please the students, is offering a grand prize of TEN DOL-LARS, or its equivalent in meals, to anyone who can suggest a napt name . Further details of this contest will be announced i nyour next Ubyssey.

Following the trend of varsity styles Mrs. Watt has installeda large triple-U counter with red-leather and chromium backedstools providing accommodation for forty people at one time .Designed by the Segal Studios in collaboration with Dave Morristhe expansive counter provides the latest in comfort and efficien tseating facilities.

In the large windows overlooking the green boulevards an dshrubbery are smart intimate tables for fot, done in soft brownand orange. Centred with fresh flowers in soft yellows and pink sthe tables are laid with bright white print table clothes bordere din blues, greens, and oranges.

Completely up-to-date lighting has been designed and installe dby Dave Morris . Centre lights are set in modernistic circular pol-oroid fixtures trimmed in black. Attractive side lamps done inred and black with orange shades overlook the exclusively place dtables .. The bright new linoleum which covers the floors, and th einformal, light tables and,chairs . . . in fact all . the furniture inwood, is supplied by David Spencer's, Ltd .

Leading off from the main dining-room is a new large banque thall which will be available for private dinners and parties uponrequest. Music will be provided, also, and clubs, fraternities, sor-orities and all other campus organizations are invited to tak eadvantage of extremely low rates and hold their official function sthere .

Two special chefs stand ready to meet the every requirementof customers in a way which will live up to the best club servic ein town. Bob Storey, formerly C.P.R. dining car chef, and latterl ywith the Quadra Club, is chief expert, ably supported by Erni eMuleaster, who, funnily enough, comes from C .N .R. dining cars.Both are pubilant over their small, compact, but efficient and spot -less kitchen which is equipped with every up-to-date piece of re-frigeration equipment available .

If you had seen what your Ubyssey investigator saw toda yin that kitchen you would have stayed and tried to chisel a meat ,too ! A large simmering pot of delicious French fried potatoes ,fresh green vegetables of several varieties, and appetizing meat stickled the palate to desperation .

Outside the swing doors of the kitchen waitresses were rapidl ypreparing the counter for the 50 odd young men from Salisbur yLodge, for which the new cafe now serves as an annex .

A distinctly new feature installed especially for students i sa cupboard space around the entire counter into which the boysand girls may slip their load of books when they sit clown . Nofussy attempts at secreting them under your feet on the flooranymore !

SHOPPIN GWith

MARY ANNWhat a summer and what fun to get back to town again . But

more important is, what shopping discoveries your little friend Mar yAnn has made for you !

If you've noticed the little shop in that smart Dunsmuir an dGranville corner you're already a Phoebe advocate but if not it' sPhoebe 's Hosiery at 713 Dunsmuir St . . . . Pardon the intrusion ,but before I forget I must tell you about the two sophisticated fresh-ettes who were discovered, hat-atrocities and all, trying on medieva lrobes in the Player's Club costume room . When requested to be abouttheir business one shying recountered, "Is this the Publications Office? "

But to get back to Phoebe's : "We're back? Fine, now we canlook at the thrilling variety of wine shades in hosiery ." Bordeaux ,Black Cherry, Chateaux, Wine Crush and Chianti—choose one t osuit your taste and then ensemble it with navy, black, a similar toneof wine ,or even dark green—the result will impress even the mos tsnobbish sorority girl . The hosiery comes in two and three threa dchiffon at $1 and can be matched with gloves from $1 up, right i nthe shop,

AThe second find is a true surprise . The technique of story writing

says that you must keep your reader in suspense for a while; but i twon't be long because I can't keep it a secret anymore . But have youever spent three days walking pavements because you couldn't find a

• dress shop that was different—smart ,like the co-eds you admire mos t—and yet wasn't too expensive? The secret's out! It's the Lora LeeDress Shop, 2814 Granville Street, in the block just above Twelft hAvenue on'the east side of the street . . , , My how I ramble but i tjust reminded me of how natty the blonde Theta looked even thoug hher eyes looked so weepy when she was clinging to the hand of hersighing boy friend. The sad tale is this, said Theta is leaving town an dU.B.C. after a tender romance of just about a year .

She didn't look any smarter than the little black wool frock trim-med with a white suede belt of paddy green, that I saw in Lora Lee' swindow yesterday. By the way, trimming and finishing are a specialt yin the shop, so every dress they show you is bound to look a littl enicer on you than the best you'll see anywhere else .

ASuede is the smart thing in sport shoes this Fall, and the smart

shoes are at Rae-Son's, of course . You'll probably go down shoppingtoday or tomorrow morning for sport shoes to wear to Saturday's biggame, so make a note of the address right now—644 Granville Street .On the mezzanine floor you'll find Rae-Son's sport models priced a t$6.95, and designed in black, brown, blue, rust, green, grey, and tan ,that means every color combination you might desire. Just one mo-ment, what's that I hear? A grim Alpha Gam has just strode into theoffice with the rather sobering exclamation, "Well he's got all hi shardware back." Apparently friend Beta is now wearing his ow nfraternity pin .

A

A

AFreshettes do very well to patronize the information bureau fo r

obscure facts but anyone can tell them that Rae-Son's Budget Shop isthe most economical place to buy shoes for campus, tea-hour or eve-ning wear. It is a well-known fact that the well-dressed co-ed choose sher footwear from Rae-Son's varied stock .

A

A

AFred Holmes on South Granville is famous for men's wear bu t

Mary Ann didn't know until just lately what smart women's wea rMr. Holmes carries all the time. When I was in yesterday afternoo nthere was a display of the smartest hand-tailored riding vests an djodhpurs in a smart beige for brunette riders, a nigger brown that con-trasts the complexion of blonde equestriennes, and a new shade o fsaddle tan . Mr. Holmes doesn't stop at the mere outfits but along wit hthe riding togs were all manner of clever and colorful belts, pins an dscarfs, to wear with the ensemble .

On the other side of the counter I discovered the smart gabardin eslacks that a couple of men students are already sporting . They arecalled cravenetted gabardine slacks and come in grey and an off shad eof green. Next smartest to gabardine for campus wear are the Iris htwist homespun slacks in greens and blues with a subtle one-threadcheck .

A

A

ABlouses, blouses, blouses, and such blouses . The Lingerie Shop ,

2793 Granville Street, is just full of blouses made just especially foryou . First of all, you will want to see the English chalis in all sorts ofnew shades, including the exotic tiel blue . They're worn with a ruffl eor an ascot and feature the over blouse style that is the popular featureof the blouses in dirndl style .

Next you'll want to see the date blouses. They're just the thin gyou want to wear with your suit when you have a tea date for theafternoon. Crepe-de-chine in Bagdad red, spice rust, and tiel blue arethe smartest colors .

On the platform were twelve newprofessors and special lecturers, ap-pointed to cope with an ever ex-panding university and to fill the va-cancies created by four resignations ,three leaves of absence, and onedeath, that of the late Dr. T.

To the latter he offered sage ad-vice garnered at the rate of two dol-lars a day in sub-zero Winnipeg wea-ther many years ago when he emerg-ed from college to find that jobs didnot lie in wait for college bred men .

"If you are not fitted for anythingin particular when you leave college ,you will not find any particular nich eits after life," he stated . "It will notbe the fault of the university or o fthe public, but your own, if you finde job, Pick your life work early an dstick to it . "

But as W. C. Field., of the Eng-lish 8 Shakespeare., would have I t. . . "Things of more momentu mare a tandem, er , . . at hand ,Yes!"

COACH CAREY SUCCEED SCAPTAIN COMMI E

AS MENTORby Basil Robinson

With a trip to California and theSan Francisco World Fair as thei rgoal, a record crop of Ruggermen areturning out these days to practice scalled by Coach A. B. Carey, whowill succeed Captain Debbie asThunderbird mentor for the comingyear .

This year, for the first time inthe history of the Vancouver Rug-by union, two Varsity teams willbe Included In the Muter Cup com-petition. A. It Is the intention ofCoach Carey and Manager BIU Cal -der to make the two squads asevenly balanced as possible, andalso to enter one and probably twoteams in the Second Division, therewill be plenty of a000mmodattonfor those who have aspirations I nthe Rugger field .

Interviewed recently with regar dto the chances of success for thecampus rugger aggregation, Coac hCarey said, "It's going to be a greatseason." And when you realise thatfrom last year's wonder team Howlsand Ted McPhee, Captain Meat Leg-gett, Todd Tremblay; Ernie Teagl eand Waddy Robertson will be backto burn up the turf for the Blue an dGold cause, and that most of lastseason's Second Team are againworking out In an effort to securepositions, you are inclined to agreewith the new rugger coach .

And there I . further justificationfor his statement contained in th enews that there are at least five ormix outstanding Freshman prospectsin line for positions on one of thetwo senior squads . Ian Richards, aregular for the last two years on th eWest Van Barbarian aggregation ,Junior Lamb, King Edward back-field star for the last three seasons ,and Bowen, another King Edwardit elook to have good chances of catch-ing senior berths .

It is obvious that little difficultywill be found in putting two out-standing back divisions on view, butthe material available to fill sixtee nforward slots is not nearly so readil yscared up . No less than five of lastyear's scrum will not be turning ou tthis fall, and much will depend onwhether Jim Harmer and Ranjl Mat-tu decide to abandon their pre-schoolideas of carrying on an exclusiv ebookworm campaign .

PRACTICE GAME

A practice game is going to beheld on Saturday at 12.30 p.m. be-tween two rugby teams, Varsity an dU.B.C. This is mainly for the pur-pose of working out the best com-bination of players . It is expectedthat there will be a good turn out .This is preparatory for the big gam eto be held a week from tomorrow .

JUNIOR'S PLAYCoach Fred Bolton's junior Var-

mlty gridders open the season tomor-row afternoon on Varsity uppe rpitch when they battle the Vancou-ver College junior outfit.

As Maury Van Vliet pointed outat the M.A .A. meeting Wednesdaynoon, there will be lots of accommo-dation for junior talent, and withthe places on the Senior Club stil lonly tentatively filled, each membe rturning out ' will have a bang-upchance of getting into senior com-pany .

CRICKET CLU BTO CONCLUDEFIRST SEASON

Many ' people will tell you theynever heard about it, but it is a fac tthat a University bricket team func-tioned during the past summer, and ,what is more, gave a very creditabl eaccount of itself. '

At the beginning of the summer ,there was some doubt in the mind sof cricket enthusiasts both In Van-couver and on the campus, whethe ra Varsity team would hold its ow nIn City League competition. It wasdecided, however, to take a leap Inthe dark, and the University entrywas formally accepted after muc hdiscussion .

PUying In the first division ofthe B.C. Mainland League, thecampus club, composed partly o fgrads and partly of student. atpresent attending the University,made a doubtful start, but aftera few reverses, came to Ste andunder the leadership of ex-Presi-dent Dave Carey, came to be re-garded as one of the strong teamsIn the competition .Out of the seven teams making u p

the First Division set-up, the Varsityentry finished a convincing third, aposition which even the most fanat-ically-enthusiastic regarded as abov ethe rightepus hopes of the collegians .

At present there is one game re-maining in the Shield competition ,the last University match being sche-duled for Saturday at 2 p .m . on Con -naught Park.

Varsity's thundering Thunderbirds knock the lid off the BigFour Sehedule tomorrow afternoon at 2 .30 in Athletic Park whe nthey tackle the crimson tide of the Knights of Columbus aggre-gation.

Revenge Is the cry of the Blue eand Gold squad for It was Just oneyear ago that the Kaycees blastedthe hopes of the Varsity team b ydowning the Students In the open-ing game at the then newly-com-plated Stadium on the campus. Sotltlr year the Men of Maury areitching to tackle the Irishmen inwhat should be the classic . grid-iron battle of this or any othercentury.A spirit of quiet optimism pervade s

the campus today, but the Varsitysquad is certainly not underestimat-ing the strength of the opposition i ntomorrow's big battle . With only afew days Intensive drill under theirbelts the Students are far from be-ing in shape .

But Coaches Van Vliet and Nei lWatson are counting on pulling anupset the well-conditioned Columbu ssquad back on their collective heels ,and from then on it looks like theRose Bowl for the Thunderbirds .

The line has been showing morestrength In recent workouts, andcoupled with' a powerful shifty back- 'field should give the opposition plen-ty of trouble. At present, puntingJohnny Pearson and fleet Ed . Dow-els look good for the end slots .

Other linemen showing up wellIn practise' are all veterans of Bi gFour competition, Brian Martinand Hank Stradlottl fit neatly intotackle position, flanking 811 IHodgebon and Fred Smith. ' Theold reliable., Oscar Orr and LeeStraight will be snapping the bailback with their usual consistency .'Promising backfield men to date

Include freshmen Graham Findla yand Fred Joplin, with Sine Drum-mond and carrot-topped Norm Ren-wick doing some fancy steppingwhen the ball comes their way . BigAub Grey and quarter Johnny Far-ina are both expected to make th egrade again for backfield work, andalso the all-star ball toting of Eva napRoberts should add strength to theteam .
