Almost as remarkable is the fac t

that the UBC library has one at all .

It is one of the few universitiesin Canada to have its own modern ,fully-equipped 'book bindery .

Located in the first stack-level o fthe new wing, the bindery commencedoperation last October . Prior to this ,all work was sent to an overwor ke ddowntown bindery, where only th eessential .jobs, such as the binding ofscientific periodicals, was done . Re -pairs piled up, no one would bothe rwith them .

The holding of Sunday meetings, how-

ever, is a singularly innocent activity .

Churches, we recall, hold Sunday meeting s

quite regularly . Church goers also park thei r

cars in the vicinity of churches—to the equa l

frustration of nearby residents .

We do net recall any law against th e

holding of Sunday meetings or the parking

of cars in the vicinity thereof . Neither do th e

neighbors of Psi U—therefore they, unabl e

to find a legitimate beef, have dug up a

legal technicality .

If it had been charged that Psi U mem-bers were disturbing the peace, there migh thave been some case. But they obviousl y

weren't disturbing the peace . '

What Better Way?i

A question has been raised with regardto :the constitutionality of the $1 fee rais efor ISS scholarships .

Protesting students, appearing befor estudent council Monday night, pointed ou t

that, under the Societies Act, a 75' per cen t

vote is required to raise fees whereas only a

twenty five per cent vote was received fo r

the ISS referendum.

The question is an entertaining one. 'I fthe'"'students are right they could, if they

persisted; secure a court injunction against

the increase .

But are they right ?

To add to the confusion, there are tw oparts to the AMS "constitution"; one a setof by-laws and the other a "code,"

Provision is made under the by-laws

This week I'd like to try my hand a treviewing a movie, This business of bein g

a movie critic is a greatly overrated one ,

as it seems to me that anyone with goo dcommon sense and an observant eye ca nreview a picture . It should be done so tha tthe average person who doesn't like readinganyway, can get the idea of the picture in ahl► rry.

' Peforo I review the filet of the week ,I ; should like to tell you the things whichIlook for in a picture. First, I look at thefilm's title, then I find out who's in it, andif these satisfy inc and I have enough money ,I ;go to the show.

After c am comfortably seated, I regardthe screen intently for a while, then I as kmyself, "What's the plot?" After I figure tha totit, I sort out the various actors, actresses ,and other people. I watch them closely t osee how they react in the situations in whic hthey always find themselves . If they behaveas Tyrone Power, or Gregory Peck, or som eother famous actor would, then I know tha tthey're acting properly and I sit back andenjoy the picture .

Of course, you have to look for otherthings too, Like telephones in a pictureabout the Wars of the Roses, they shouldn' tput a phone in a picture like that becaus ethey didn't, as far as I know, have phones ,or even radios then .

Now the hero, Steve is his name in th eshow . . , or Joe, it doesn 't matter anyway ,has a big ranch and lots of cattle. At least ,at the beginning you think it's his ranch ,until this doctor from New York shows upwith his daughter, Joan something-or-other ,that is, she 's the doctor's daughter, not Joe's .Joe isn't married, because he had to lookafter his mother when his father was killed .It wasn't really his father, but according t othe railway crowd, who were trying to ge tthe ranch,—I'm getting a little ahead of th estory,

Now you can see how easy it is to b ea first-rate critic . All you have to do is useyour head and watch closely what gees on .

Hockey Feud Starte dAs Kings Beat ' Bird s

Rough Play, Penalties and On eFight Feature First Meetin g

' Suspected hockey fued between Kerrisdale Monarchs and

UBC Thunderbirds became a reality Tuesday night when th e

two clubs met for the first time this season ,4 Between the abundance of hard

1 checking and penalties, plus a hot-

tempered fight in the third period ,

Kerrisdale squad managed to out -

hustle and out-score the locals t o

take their first win of the year b y

an 8-3 score .The Monarchs jumped into an early

three goal lead before the game wa s

five minutes old. The period ende d

3-1 for the Monarchs as cagy Fre d

to meet almost an

this Friday.

Close followers of the antics o f

Bird basketball at UBC in recent

years will remember many of the

Seattle University stars .

SPEIDEL BACK WITH SEATTLE

speed game at guard for the Seattl e

team and features a long one handed

shot from, the rim of the key ,

this year and is one of the mos t

experienced and capable men on th e

Seattle squad . UBC centres will have

their hands full holding Spangler

At guard will be equally fast Bo b

Hedequist who features a fast break-

ing style down the floor .

Before the Birds will have a chanceto recuperate from the game with

Seattle, they are scheduled to mee t

the top Senior A entry, the Clover

Leafs.

HIGH INTEREST

Rated as one of the most interestin g

games„i4 be played at UBC in th epre-season schedule, the Clover Leaf -

Bird game is generally taken to b e

some indication of possible Bir d

strength .

Even though the Leafs will stri p

such former UBC stars as Robertson ,Weber, and Haas, the chances of th e

Birds look very good as the Leaf s

have not' yet reached peak seaso nform and the Birds are expected t orun the feet off the Clover Leafs .

Andre winitiatedKoch .

EarlyKoch got hi sworking Hugh Berr y

the clear .TOUGH BREA K

A tough break in the second perio d

gave Kerrisdale the goal that stopped

UBC's rally which changed the com-plexion of the game from a tigh t

3-2 game to 7-3 margin before th o

canto ended ,The third goal for the 'Birds wa s

the picture goal of the game as

hustling Hugh Berry sent a precisio n

pass to Bet Koch who walked i n

on Don Saunders in goal with acleke which left the puck in the ne t

and the goalie out on left wing .

Defensively the work of the squa dleft a little to be desired but thei rplay improved as the game progress-ed and in the third period the y

played smart hockey . The backcheck-ing was lax' at the outset but wa s

very effective in the second and thir d

periods as they settled down .Terry Nelford was the most effec-

tive defenseman on the ice as h e

used his weight and savvy to the

best advantage . He teed into ex-mat eBob Saunders with a terrific check

which, but for Bob's being set, woul dhave left Saunders for cold .DRAKE SENSATIONA L

Clare Drake's sensational wor kwhile the squad was two men shor twas slightly terrific .

The brawl which finished off the

game was the direct result of a charg eby Bastein against Clare Drake . Clare

got up swinging with Bob Lindsa y

joining in to offset Furlan's aggressiv eentrance into the melee . No damag e

was done on either side except a

deflation of Bastein 's ego.On the credit side of the ledger

was that the squad got a bad game

out of their system 's with no il l

effects except a leg cut to Bob Koch ,

a cut eye to Hugh Berry, and acut to goalie Ken Torrance .played a great game in th e

despite the score .LETTER REFEREEIN G
