OUR FIRST SPRING REVUE Why Didn’t

We Bleed? Many on campus have

been wondering why a blood donor clinic was not set up here as it was at Waterloo College two or three months ado. Apparently some ad- vance units of the clinic were sent down here in order to ascertain whether we were capable of giving blood.

Numerous tests were con- ducted on students in the engineering faculty and then no more- was heard of the matter. After some weeks an investigation was undertaken in order to see why we had not been called upon to bleed for the blood bank. We thought at first that the clinic had discovered an un- usually high percentage of iz;l.lce in our ranks but on

investigation found out that this was nz the case. The reason they did not set up within our fair halls was so obviously simple that no one even thought of it. This may come as an anti-climax to many people but the reason is as follows: The alcohol content in the bloodstream of those people tested was far in excess of the minimum health requirements of the clinic. Although this may appear to have satirical overtones, the student body can rest assur- ed that every single word of this is almost true.

The exact words of the official at the clinic head- quarters were: “We are un- able to use any donors from your institution as your al- cohol shows traces of blood content.”

St. Patrick’s Day + Well, it’s that dav to-

day when all loyal “Irish- men pay homage to their patron Saint, shamrocks, lep- rechauns, the wearing of the green - and all that jazz. What’s this great preoccupa- tion with the Irish and their patron Saint, the parades, the emerald isle - and all that jazz? The only good things that came out of Ireland were dances, songs and potatoes -in that order. Whatever happened to Saint Andrew’s day and the patron Saint of the biggest little country in the world. Let’s get the thistle back up there where it belongs.

Why a Latin-American Institute? Why, asks your editor, should anyone want to establish

a course in Latin American Studies? Between the Rio Grande and de1 Norte, and Tierra de1 Fuego there are about 190,000,000 reasons, all Latin Americans, and by the end of this century they will number somewhere in the neighbour- hood of 300,000,000.

For many generations our culture has been Europe- centred, and we have concentrated on studying the history and literature of the people from whose continent we or our ancestors came. Unfortunately, we have neglected our most important neighbours, and have studiously ignored the fact that everyone who lives in North or South America is an American. We, as Americans, have a duty to know about other Americans - and not only those from the U.S.A.

Far be it from me to suggest that Latin America is the only area that we should study. Canada is shamefully backward in the study of Africa, the Far East, the Semitic world, Russia, and other areas of vital importance to all of us, as well as in that of our nearest non-Anglo Saxon neigh- bours. We even neglect our own compatriots of French descent. The point is, here at Waterloo we simply have not the facilities or the money to set up all the area-study programmes we should like to set up. Therefore, we should concentrate on one such programme and do it well.

An understanding of political, economic, and cultural developments in the world is of overwhelming importance to all of us; everybody says so. But at present very few people are doing anything about it. The attempt to establish a course in Latin American Studies at this university represents the first, feeble attempt on the part of this writer to stop talking and start making some positive contribution to the spread of international understanding.

NEW FACULTY MEMBER Industrial designer George N. Soulis, B.A.&., formerly

factory manager at Snyder’s Limited, in Waterloo, joined the faculty of the University of Waterloo this month as assistant professor in mechanical engineering. Mr. Soulis recently returned from Ulm, Germany, where he was a visiting staff member at the Ulm College of Design for nine months. He will lecture in design and materials at the University.

He came to Waterloo in 1952 as an industrial designer with Snyder’s Limited and was appointed factory manager in 1958. He won several National Industrial Design Council awards for his furniture designs at Snyder’s.

While in Germany, Mr. Soulis prepared a paper on industrial design education as related to engineering science education and served on a research team to design an electronic computer for the Olivetti Company of Italy. The trip to Germany was sponsored through grants from the Canada Council and the National Industrial Design Council. He is the first engineer to receive a Canada Council grant.

Last Friday night in front of a near-capacity crowd, the University presented THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO, our first annual Spring Revue. Although only a fledgling group, the Laurel Creek Players handled themselves quite well under the circumstances. The gymnasium is not always the ideal place for activities of this sort, and, as a result, a great deal of lines were absorbed by the beams and bricks or else spoken into the floor. The idea of the thirty year funning gag suffered a little from repetition, but apart from that the plot was quite sound. Jokes which lampooned all the faculties as a whole drew hearty laughs but the others, which restricted themselves to one faculty or a professor of that faculty drew only laughs from those concerned.

There was a great deal of emphasis on sex (perhaps more than necessary) and where it came from one can only guess. From the allegorical name of the participating faculty member, one could perhaps surmise that. it may have been his doing. What the players lacked in polished pro- duction and direction techniques, they more than made up for in enthusiasm. The parts appeared to have been well-cast and thoroughly learned. Some scenes, however, were too repetitious and did not live up to the expectations of the writers. An example of this, was the faculty scenes which did not contain a great deal of humour and perhaps could be classed, plot wise, as necessary evils.

The musical part of the show was received very well. Many in the audience were favourably impressed with the School Song and hope that the words and music will soon be available to the student body. Jim Tupman and Bruce Koepke sung “Little White Duck” and with the appropriate sound effects, it was perhaps one of the highlights of the show. The finale with all the players on stage, the University Singers and the Glee Club gave B.M.O.C. a rousing finish. It left the audience ‘with the impression that should a musical comedy be tried next year, it could be a real hit.

In reviewing a “first” such as this, there is alwavs the danger of being-unduly harsh and by destructive criticism, destroy a very good thing while it is still in the bud. One cannot expect rave notices on a first attempt; things just don’t happen that way. The main point about the show was that it marked the beginning of the legitimate theatre on this campus. Pioneers always take abuses and find the going rough, but without them, advancement does not take place. With the limited time and personnel available to them, the writers and producers of B.M.O.C. did a very creditable job. Congratulations and we’ll look forward to next year’sannual spring revue.

. EDITORIAL “Errors like straws upon the surface flow,

We who would search for pearls must dive below.” These two lines are my sole defence against numerous

letters received from engineering students concerning an anti-engineering editorial written some two weeks ago. You who wrote in were quick to grab the obvious surface “straws” because you did not know or think of, what I would call “the pearls below”. The reason it was written was not to cause disunity among the faculties or, though it appears to do so, bereate the engineers for having the occasional beer. Rather it was written to get response, to rouse feelings and cause a break in this apathetic fog which shrouds our university. Things were getting so bad that we on the paper were almost reduced to manufacturing letters to the editor so poor was the response. I believe it had the desired effect in that it gave many a potential angry young man something to get angry about. I wish there were other ways which could bring response but there appears to be only two: either calling you names or attacking your faculty. Let us hope that. we do not have to resort to either method again because there are so many other things in this world which need to be discussed, which need to be critieized and which should be the brunt of any indignation which you might have.

As has been pointed out to me, unity, or at least the appearance of unity is very important to a young university and we should do our utmost to preserve it. At the risk of being dogmatic, I still contend that distinct faculty reputa- tions must be secondary to, and cast no aspersions on the reputation of the university as a whole. I recognize that right now and for 2 or 3 years to come, the reputation of this university is that of the engineers and I am willing to accept it. When that time arrives when the enrollments in each of the other faculties are equal, I hope the engineers are willing to accept the fact that their reputation must now be second- ary to that of the university and conduct themselves ac- cordingly. This is all I ask.

Well, enough is enough because throughout the paper, which may be a little redundant this week, there are letters dissecting me and this topic from every angle.

This is the last issue of the Coryphaeus for this term but we hope that you engineers keep it going all summer and that you will find the experience of working on it as enjoyable and rewarding as we have. I wish to thank the staff for all their conscientious work and time. Marks permitting, I hope to see them all back for the next session. Again, thank you very much.

AGE-OLD PROBLEM Although Mr. Welsh can-

not seem to get his facts straightened away at least he goes down swinging. He claims in the March 9 issue of the Coryphaeus that al- though two engineers voiced their opinions, “No excuse was offered, no solution was offered; &fact they pleaged not guilty.”

No excuse was offered, Mr. Welsh, because I have yet to hear a good excuse to a foolish act. If I had a solu- tion to this age-old problem of boozing it up, I am sure more influential people than yourself would be only too glad to put it into practice; This is by no means a new problem. Prohibition was an attempt to solve the problem and we all know how well that worked. I y.

Who pleaded not guilty, Mr. Welsh? It was merely pointed out that heavy drinking is found in ALL. groups and not just ONE group. Certainly there were those en’gineers at the game who had. had too much to

drink, but artsmen and science students were having just as much trouble getting up off their hands and knees. As one artsman remarked, “It hurts when someone steps on your fingers.”

You speak of the use of “second-hand information.” In the February 23, issue of the Coryphaeus, you wrote an editorial concerning the situ- ation in the Congo. Since I am reasonably sure that you did not pay a visit to the Congo in person to interview those half-naked illiterates you so knowingly wrote about, I feel my use of second-hand information is justified. This second - hand information came from artsmen as well as engineers.

There is one point in your article, however, which hits home straight and true, Mr. Welsh. “The lack of aroused feelings on this campus is paXhe&.” This statement does not need expounding upon. It is to be hoped you pricked a few consciences.

Letter to the Editor If the Editor of the Cory-

phaeus must resort to such childish outbursts as the startling statement in the first paragraph (to gain the reader’s attention), only to reverse his position in the last paragraph by limiting himself to the “few”, perhaps his intelligence is not far above that of the Engineers.

&ping Term

Dear Sir: Having read your article

concerning the behaviour of engineers of this school at the McMaster game, I am quite impressed by your lack of good taste. You seem so damned sure about some- thing that you did not your- self witness. You singled out the engineers as being meat- heads because they were drinking. I will have you know that the fans present at this game represented all faculties, not just the engin- eers. Not all of the engineers were drinking, but there were some science and arts students who made up for it.

Admittedly, I was quite drunk, and I assume I made a fool out of myself. If I have brought shame on this uni- versity, I humbly apologize. But, having read an account of the game in the McMaster paper, there was nothing derogatory said about the conduct of our students ex- cept that I has some pretty fancy footwork and was con- stantly in front of the crowd leading a cheer. If McMaster has no complaints about the students of this school being drunk, I believe an apology by you is in order to the engineers for the mistakes of n a few.

Dear Sir: I would like to reply to

Gary Palen’s observations in the Cafeteria.

Evidently he only investi- gated what he wanted to investigate. If he had carried his investigating a little fur- ther he might have found a scrubbing brush, yes, “Made in Canada,” but priced at 49c. At 29c. this would have been a good price.

What a pity he didn’t make his investigation some weeks back. Here is a topic that your “Debating Soc- iety” could have spent sev- eral hours debating, then have come up with a 50-50 verdict.

Dear Mr. Editor:

Does not the imbibed con- dition of an Artsman con- tribute as much damage to our reputation as that of an Engineer, or does this come under the heading of ti liberal education? Although I do not entirely agree that-any repre- sentative of our Universitv should get “completely ston- ed,” neither do I agree with your condemning the faculty of Engineering.

It is indeed a shame tha the paper has to cease publi cations for the term jus when the big guns are bein: drawn up. This has certain1 been an auspicious beginnin, for the University news paper. Time and again, opin ion expressed in the pape has shown that students her are taking an interest i: matters that conern then This is good. It remains onl; for anyone who writes hi opinions to think analyticall: as well as critically.

Dear Sir: In your March 3 issue of

the Coryphaeu!, an editorial presented a criticism of the behaviour of the engineers at the MeMaster basketball game. Why is the editorial directed at the engineers only? Are they to take the brunt of all the criticism? The editorial spoke only of .

As regards the latest con troversy, it would appea that both sides (Arts, Scienc and Engineering vs. Georg Welsh) are letting emotio: cloud their logic. I believ the editorial was out of line it should not have laid a: the blame on the engineer2 This was undeserved. How ever, I would like to tak exception to Mr. Barnes statement (“Guilt by Assoc iation” March 9) that “on engineer was truly drunk. The concensus is that on engineer was so drunk h passed out. I was not awar that unless one passes oul one is not drunk, but sobel

engineers, conveniently omit- ting any and all references to the artsmen and science stud- ents present. Are they all teetotalers? Surely not,-for I saw several representatives of these faculties who were, to quote the editorial, also “completely stoned.”

does the Mae paper co& tribute only three sentences to student activities during the game? Furthermore, none of these sentences are the least bit derogatory. Their paper goes on to devote two pages to accounts of the theft of several O.A.C. stat- ues by Mat students; these may be considered as pranks which have, as of late, been outlawed on this campus, but nevertheless, their paper doesn’t ridicule or eriticize the students concerned.

?Question of the Week ? What constructive suggestion can you make to preserve

the unity of the Arts, Science, and Engineering faculties at the University of Waterloo? b. In order to maintain peace and unity between the three

faculties at the University of Waterloo - I propose the following six points plan for togetherness??????????????

1. Dismiss all science and engineering students. 2. Shoot George Welsh! 3. Seek intervention by the “United Nations Emer-

gency force.” (Look what they did for the Congo). 4. Suspend the women of the University (this will

certainly please John Phillips). 5. An abundance of Seagram’s Five Star Special (or

any other similarly effective substitute). 6. Allow duelling on the campus. George T. Pollitt Under present conditions it is necessary to dismiss the

students from the other faculties as the drunken plumbers, the stuffed-shirt artsmen, and the mad scientist, depending upon your faculty affiliation. Since I have been a student in two of the faculties here I suggest that some effort be made to acquaint the students of each faculty with the courses offered by the others. From a knowledge of the engineering courses, the arts and science students would then see the pressure on the engineer during his twelve weeks on campus and might look less critically on his occasional spree to release tension.

The artsmen and the engineers would see that elements of both their programmes are combined in the science course. The labs and math of the engineer and the humani- ties of the artsmen are combined to give the science student his curriculum.

The engineers and science students would realize that the arts course is an intensive programme in the humanities, the social sciences and skilled subjects requiring much concentrated reading and studying.

The cause of student unity is aided by all-faculty partici- pation in extra-curricular activities. Students from the three faculties participate in the sports programme, the glee club, the Laurel Creek Players’ Guild, and the various clubs on campus. During such activities as rehearsals for B.M.O.C., the students drop their interfaculty antagonism and all work for the common goal. The effort of March 10 is proof that the three faculties can and do co-operate successfully. Further participation in these outside activities would aid the cause of student unity.

Admittedly, there is a need for each faculty to have its own elected council but we still need a University Students Council. Most of us remember the Students Council’s import- ance from our high school days. Here, while our university is still in its early stages, we need a voice for the whole student body; one to represent all the undergraduates.

It will be news to many of you to learn that last year when there was a possibility of Waterloo College’s federating with the University of Waterloo as its arts faculty, a shadow students council was formed consisting of students from both schools.

When the college started talking of not federating, much work was done behind the scenes by this group to try to bring the two factions together. Despite rivalry between the two schools, this group showed us that the students could and did drop their bickering and co-operate when it was necessary. If the students from the two schools could work so closely together! surely the students from the three faculties of this University can unite and support our new Student Council. Only with the complete support of the students from all faculties can this new council function smoothly and properly. Everyone’s wholehearted support of this council will better inter-faculty relations.

The so called lack of school spirit or lack of unity between faculties is not nearly as extreme as some would have us believe. Rather, the whole problem stems from a misunderstanding of the activities by the student body.

Generating unity is diffieult only because it is not an end in itself but rather a by-product. A result of a common response by a body to its traditions and goals. While this university has not had time to evolve a unique tradition, we do have a common goal - Education.

There are as I see it two distinct approaches to concern ourselves with; First, to create common grounds for unity and then to remove destructive processes.

Lurking within this university there are several insidious rabble-rousers, persons of low maturity who would generate the level of the school downwards with the snobbishness and boorishness. It is indeed unfortunate at a time when great strides are being made in science and education that some portion of our Waterloo students choose to bicker about naive topics and generally wage decimating attacks on the other faculties such as: who was sloshed how much, or what snobs or boors theg are. Not realizing that it takes a low rank of maturity to be ,embroiled in such local trivialities. Well, there isn’t too much we can do with this type of person but to recognize the breed, and make the necessary allow- ances.

None the less, there is .great scope for hope. The raw material is evident and only lacks a unifying symbol to create a good school spirit. We need a symbol that would incorporate the distinct Waterloo entities. Engineering, Science and Arts. As a nation has a flag and an anthem, SO should our school combine all its hopes and goals in some symbols which of its own nature generate a pride in the student body.

Such a symbol might well be an ever expanding triangle, rooted in the present and expanding towards the future representing three fold man; Body, Soul and Spirit, and representing the three separate bodies of this university.

Open Letter to - dl AJrIdergraduatss~ _ Recent issues of the Cory-

lhaeus, taken together with .orrespondence recently re- .eived in my office, provide ,n interesting chronicle of tudent behaviour and mis- behaviour.

In the Coryphaeus for Fri- lay, March 3, there was ublished an open letter from ‘resident J. G. Hagey, re- ninding all students of the esponsibilities they hold in he University society to Jhich they belong. The same ssue contained an unsigned ditorial condemning engin- ering students for misbe- aviour during the recent lasketball game at McMas- er. The : Coryphaeus for Thursday, March 9, carries banner headline “Engineers ndignant” with a letter ldicating that only one en- ineering student behaved lolishly at MeMaster. The ame issue carried an editor- ~1 (apparently written by an ngineering student) repri- landing the writer of the ‘revious editorial for par- iality in blaming only engin- ering students for the troub- ? at McMaster. In point of fact, it really

oesn’t matter who was orig- lally to. blame - it is only ignificant that students from his University behaved in a lolish and immature fashi- In. A more complete report

as been made available to s from McMaster Univer- ity. It is reproduced below:

“Between 6.15 p.m. and p.m. Tuesday, February

8,1961, three coach loads of tudents from the University f Waterloo arrived for the

purpose of playing two bas- ketball games in the Drill Hall. -

“When the students dis- embarked they were very’ rowdy and many were under the influence of drink.

“They formed into small groups and spread them- selves all over the Campus, entering a number of the buildings.

“Fire hose removed from the Drill Hall and found wrapped around the wheels of one of the coaches.

“Fire extinguisher at stair- way of Buildings and Grounds Offices removed and emptied.

“Large silver athletic tro- phy removed with stand from Drill Hall and found under one of the coaches, together with a bed sheet removed from a bed in Drill Hall, First Aid Room. (Silver cup bent.)

“About ten new hockey sticks and pucks were found being removed from the Drill Hall.

“Entry forced to old green- house, slight damage to woodwork.

“Up to the time of report- ing, ail property was return- ed and no further damage ascertained.

“The City Police endea- voured to trace the coach but

“At about 11.15 p.m. the three coaches left the Cam- pus with no further incident.

“About 11.45 p.m. seven- teen Waterloo students roaming around the Campus were rounded up.

“They stated that one of the coaches was to return for them at 11.30 p.m. but had not arrived.

with no result. ‘fFinally at 1.00 a.m. the

students left the Campus in three taxis.

“After the games, com- ments were made by re- sponsible persons who had attended the game indicating that they had never before seen such disgraceful con- duet.”

An estimate of the damage done has been requested, and when received, will be passed on to the senior Students Council of the University for payment. .

Unfortunately, paying the cost of breakages, etc., assoo- iated with such an incident, does not remove the foul impression left by students from this University.

It is not for the University to supervise and police stud- ent affairs. The University must expect all of its stud- ents to act in a responsible and mature fashion. As Dr. Hagey’ noted in his recent open letter, students at this University have a responsi- bility not only for their own behaviour but for the be- haviour of every other stud- ent.

D. T. Wright, Dean of Engineering

The new Constitution, just being formulated, for the University Students Council provides for a Judicial Com- mittee, composed of students to deal with student mis- behaviour. It is to be hoped that procedure may be evolv- ed whereby students at this University can have effective control, as a group, over the irresponsible behaviour of the minority.

for what they are, and not for some fuzzy notion of what you would like them to be. It is one thing to aspire to better the world, it is quite another to blindly criticize and rail against the realities of life. It would do -you well to remember the words of the great French philosopher, .Rabelais, “I drink no more than a sponge.” He knew men as they are, and he based his writings on this knowledge; . for this he is still remembered and studied throughout the world today.

Ed. LVote: We found this letter completely beyond our understanding but printed it nevertheless because it pro- vides an ideal exercise in critical reading, that is, the attempt to discover a vestige of sense where there is none.

ENGINEWS EDITORIAL

This is the last issue of the Coryphaeus for this term. There are many subjects of interest which could be used for the closing editorial, but which to choose?

In looking over the past three months, if it had not been for Showboat ‘61 the term would have been a complete loss. This term was dead from the word go. Initiation of freshmen was virtually non-existent. The noisy stags and general hullabaloo usually raised by engineers never happened.

The reaction of engineers to the newspaper was very poor. Articles that were submitted were usually interesting and readable, but very few in number. In the summer term we will have to run the paper on our own. Admittedly, finding time to write articles in the school term is difficult, but at least give a little thought to the summer months while you are at work. If something arouses your interest, write a short article about it. There are those of you who have contributed to the paper in the past and have done a good job. Share a little of this talent of yours again in the summer issues of the paper. Two or three well-written articles, written while you are at work, would help consider- ably in lessening the load for those who have to put out the Coryphaeus in the summer.

As Mr. Dyck would say, “The time for educational experiences is upon us again.” So, good luck with your term exams and we’ll see you next summer????

MEETING: Tuesday, April 6, 1961 at 5.00 p.m. Student Oflices -- Annex 2

Engineer on first work assignment : “Do you give your employees two weeks’ vacation?”

Boss : “No, they get a month - two weeks when they go on their vacations, and two weeks when I go on mine.”

Artsman: “I would like to marry your daughter, sir.”

Father : “Well, you can leave your name and address and if nothing better turns up, we will notify you.”

First Mountaineer: “I hear your wife makes mighty good moonshine whiskey.”

2nd Mountaineer: “Yep. She sure does. Reckon I aughta be ashamed of her, but with all her faults, I love her still.” Thought for Today:

Never regard study as a duty, but as the enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs.

Albert Einstein

Tyhihir,“,” Earth soaks up

And drinks, and gapes for drink again;

The Plants suck in the Earth and are

With constant Drinking fresh and fair.

Nothing in Nature’s sober found,

But an eternal Health goes round.

Fill up the Bowl, then, fill it high-

Fill all the Glasses there; for WhY

Should every Creature Drink but I?

Why, Man of Morals, tell me why?

King Street

Spectacdar Standing waiting for a

trolley in downtown Kitch- ener on a Saturday night can be a rich experience. There is conducted on King Street a veritable symphon5 of sound as the seiee&hing of tires intones beautifully with the low throb of Hollywood muf- flers. Sleek chrome monsters with the usual accessories (outsize fender skirts, beads around the windshield, the shrunken head on the rear view mirror, and “pipes” on the cars whose owners are really with it) roar out throaty challenges at every stoplight .

The cars however are the lesser of two spectacles put on for the edification of those who wait for trolleys. The drivers of these unhappened accidents are the stars of the whole show. Although they may profess to be different the observer on the sidewalk, with just a few minutes’ practice, can pick out mark- ed similarities in the posture and appearance of the driv- ers. His back is almost always against the door, his right hand has a tight grip on the spinner on the wheel, while his left hand appears to be in the process of performing some ambigious function down on the floor, he never smiles, half his face is in the shadow of his turned up collar and his hair., well a book could be written on that. There may be some danger of an understatement here, but his hair appears to be “quite long” and well kept to the point of being almost effeminate.

The drivers may be sub- divided into two classes: those with female compan- ions and those without fe- male companions. The form- er are very difficult to dis- tinguish in that there appears to be only one person in the car. Perhaps this propinquity can be attributed to over- protectiveness or then again it may stem from the neces- sity of bodily warmth neces- sitated by plastic seat covers. The field is very free for theory. The other type who has no girl, to quote Willy “hath a lean and hungry look” and is forever scanning the sidewalks in hope that somewhere in this great met- Lropolis there is a girl for him.

If you could have seen ;hose boys on Saturday night your heart would have gone >ut to them in their hour of leed; the tragedy played out In King street would have lulled at the heart strings of ;he most convinced stoic. So slippery were the roads that light that it was virtually mpossible to “burn rubber” 1s they are wont to say. rears of frustration welled zp in every face and King street echoed with cries of ‘Wait ‘till next week.”

If you have a spare hour rext Saturday night I would leartily advise that, you go lowntown and watch the :lowns perform their antics.. ‘t will be time well wasted.

Sports This being the last issue of the Coryphaeus for this term,

we have now a rundown on the 1960-61 sports at the U. fo W.

Basketball The Warriors basketball team played an extremely good

season ending up with 20 wins and only 2 losses with a clean slate of 8 - 0 in conference play. The Warriors averaged 77.6 points per game while holding their opponents to only a 59.8 points per game average. Bill Jones was top scorer with 448 points for an average of 26.3 per game. Ray Palmer had 326 points for a 15.5 per game average, while Dick Aldridge had 209 points for a 9.9 per game average. Rebounding, Jerry Hickey had 191 and Bob Pando had 130 rebounds.

The Waterloo J.V.‘s had a good season with 7 wins and 6 losses. They went 5 - 5 in league play.

Hockey The hockey team tried hard and played well, but they

still ended up with 0 wins and 10 losses.

Curling The U. of W. entry was eliminated in the second round

of the Curling Bonspiel.

Volleyball A 2 - 3 record in the tournament got the team third

place in the final standing.

Badminton In this sport the U. of W. doubles team won the Inter-

collegiate title.

Golf Waterloo was runner-up in the Golf Tournament.

Football The football Warriors had a record of 2 wins and 5 losses

over the season. The team was made up of many freshmen students and prospects look much better for next year when the boys will have had a season of playing together.

Rugger The U. of W, “Scorpions” Rugger team was just

organized this year and played several exhibition games against U. of T., O.A.C., London, etc. The Scorpions beat U. of T. seconds 19 - 5 while losing to O.A.C. 12 - 6. In the second week of April, the Scorpions are planning to travel to Ann Arbor, Michigan, to play an exhibition game there. Next year the Scorpions are trying to get a league formed with Western, Queen’s seconds, Toronto seconds, MeMaster, O.A.C. seconds and the Scorpions as a Junior Varsity league.

On the whole the U. of W. was well represented by our sports teams and prospects look good for next year with our application for membership in the OQAA recommended to the Board of Governors of the OQAA and a tentative basketball schedule already drawn up including an entry from the U. of W. Also on the hockey front, we are proposed as an entry in the senior league with division opponents of O.A.C., MeMaster, and Queen’s. To augment our ranks next year, coaches Totzke and Pugliese will be visiting about 30 high schools in Ontario to try to persuade talented students to enter the University of Waterloo next fall.

Man, being reasonable, must get drunk; The best of life is but in- toxication :

Glory, the grape, love, gold, in these are sunk

The hopes of all men and of every nation;

Without their sap, how branchless were the trunk

Of life’s strange tree, so fruit- ful on occasion :

But to return,-Get very drunk; and when

You wake with headache, you shall see what then.

Byron Don Juan, Canto ii St. 179

Bible Quotation: Drink no longer water, but

Jse a little wine for thy stomach’s sake.

Waterloo is a place where artificial pearls are cast be- ‘ore real swine.
