GAINS AS LPP VANISHES

By JOHN GREEN and MARIAN BALL

• PROGRESSIVE Conservatives maintained their plur-

ality, and Labour Progressives wilted drastically in a

crowded and rowdy Mock Parliament election in Arts 100 ,

Monday noon.

Progressive Conservative leader Grant Livingstone decide d

to form a government with 18 seats in a 47 seat house, relying

on Dave Williams, Retrogressive Progressives with 7 seats t o

support his measures. CCF under Bob Harwood gained 13

seats to form the official opposition .

LPP representatives gained four

seats, a severe drop from the 12they held in the last election ,while Liberals held even, also wit hfour . There are two independentsin the house,

A CUP FEATURE

• "WHAT ARE the chances for

a Canadian drama developingin the colleges and universitie s

from coast to coast?" pondere dCanadian Campus. Are produc-tion facilities good? Are dramaticsrecognized academically? Are the ypopular? Answers varied fro mcollege to college on everythingbut popularity. Drama, it seemsis here to stay .

Most camps have their own the-atre or auditorium available ,though some have to stage thei rproductions away from the hom e

campus. Acadia university reports ,

an auditorium seating approxi-mately 2,000, with a spacious stage ,

a pipe organ and two grandpianos. Under the stage is a pi tcontaining the batteries and lights

and above the stage Le a proproom and loft for storing cos-tumes and sets.

Plays are produced In MoyseHall at McGill University, In Con-vocation Hall at Queen's and inHart House Theatre, which for th epast two years has been openedonly for a six week season, at theUniversity of Toronto. A sad storyof a dramatic housing shortagecomes from the University o fManitoba whose theatre was oc-cupied by the army for five yearsand requires stage renovation be-fore returning to civilian life .

Campus Dramatic Societies orGuilds are generally extra-cur-ricular but in some cases such asat McGill university, curricula rand extra-curricular dramaticsfunction side by aide. The McGillPlayers' Club, supported by theStudents' Council produces twoplays a year, while the Englis hDepartment also produces twoplays, staged completely by thestudents in the two drama course sgiven at the university.

Dramatic distinction is given forefficient staging as well as for pro-ficient acting at Acadia universit ywhere three one-act plays are pro-duced and directed annually b ymembers of one of the Englishcourses. Mount Allison universityawards dramatic A's at the end o fthe year for credits received forparticipation in any and all phasesof stage productions, and an indi-vidual award for the best actor i spresented by the adjudicator a tthe Drama Festival, Queen's uni-versity provides a course in dra-matics at its summer school .

The chief feature of all the re -ports on campus productions is ageneral spirit of student co-opera-tion : for instance this report fro mthe University of Montreal on thei rannual Revue Bleu et Or. It i sa kind of Music-Hall Review madetip of sketches about student life ,humorous songs, written by theschool wit, dances performed bythe girl friend, who is learnin gballet. Settings are designed andput up by the boys in Architecture .

The University of Ottawa says ,"It is a firmly established tradi-tion to stage two plays yearly, onein French and one in English ."

"All plays are cast and. produce dby students," comes from Qu'een'suniversity, "and insofar as possiblestudents make their own cos-tumes . "

' At the University of Manitob athe Dramatic Society presents on emajor production during the firstterm, a drama festival during th esecond term, and a radio pla ysome tipne during the year .

The universities of Montreal, Ot-tawa, Queen's and Manitoba spea kof increasing public interest i ntheir dramatic productions which ,as in the case of almost all the col-leges, are modern play's . The lis tof Canadian Campus production sfor this season include, The Mal eAnimal at University of Manitoba ,Our Town at McGill universityand University of Toronto, an dArsenic and Old Lace at Univer-sity of New Brunswick .

STUDENT OPINIONS VARYON NEW SIZE DIPLOMA S

By HELEN-MARY GOWAN S

• STUDENTS have varied ideas regarding the size of thei r

diplomas. Some even suggested wallet-sized plastic ones ,some demanded impressive blanket-sized ones .

A group of ex-servicemen, Don

Currie, Earl English and Murra y

Walker, went into a huddle fo r

several minutes when interviewed ,

They argued. They debated .

Finally their spokesman, Don Cur-

rie (late of Nofth Africa and Cey -

lon) said : "After due consideration

we have decided that for years of

hard work, we would like anample diploma with ample colors."

D. Brentzen, a Public Health

student, approves of the propose d

8 x 10 diploma as it is "more

practical . "

when AMS president Allan Ains-worth, clad in his old black gownof office, strode into the meetin gto carry of LPP leaders to answercharges of violating the AMSconstitution .

A minor uproar came whenGrant Livingstone, leader of thesuccessful Progressive Conserva-tive party opened his address with"Ladies and gentlemen, fellow .Canadians, I exclude the LPP."

The chairman asked him to re-frain from slander. Livingstonereplied "I will withdraw my re -marks If the LPP will withdrawtheir platform . "

had invaded "The democratichalf-serious discussions" of theMock Parliament and quoting theCommunist Manifesto amid audi-ence cries of "Time" to the effec tthat communism can be achieved"only by the overthrow of oli ourinstitutions . "

Amid roars of "Pamphlets, ""send him to the salt mines" ,Gordon Martin, LPP leader, toldstudents when he went to all th etrouble of having the pamphlet sprinted, "Little did I realize I wascommitting a heinous crime . "

Freedom Only

By Socialism

Says Steeves

• REAL FREEDOM, unde r

which "each person can be

himself at his best" can be brought

about only by democratic social -

ism. This was the view expressed

by Mrs Dorothy Steeves, forme r

CCF MLA, at a public meeting ofthe SPC in Arts 100, Friday noon.

Developing her topic, "Can therebe freedom under socialism?" shedeclared the claim "That socialismwill destroy freedom is so absur dthat it is almost imbeclle . "

Mrs. Steeves said that those whoattacked socialism contend thatplanning will lead to restriction offreedom and regimentation of ourlives. She pointed out that en-terprise is not now completelyfree . Big business controls "free "enterprise and decides the vitalissues of war and peace. She heldfurther that socialism does notregiment lives but is rather aspur to real initiative which is a"service to the community rathe rthan a gain to oneself. "

She stressed decentralization ofpower through which all mustshare in the decisions by whic hthe processes of production anddistribution are carried on . Demo-cratic planning, she maintained ,was necessary to link social at-curity to jobs .

"Modern Commercialism" is Im-peding creative thought . She saidwe must develop an educationalsystem to develop freedom ofmind, for "man lives by thought "

We Apologize Slightly

• LETTERS To The Edito r

Altruism defined in its standarddictionary usage is, quote, "Regar dfor others as a principle of action. "The Greek Letter societies wit htheir black-ball, hush-hush an dadolescent shibolith devoted bythe large to social and intramuralinanities are scarcely to be con -fused as altruistic .

However, being ever-suspiciou sof elements which represent them -selves as "altruistic," particularlyits liberal usage as regards fra-ternities, I feel a reply to Mr .Julian's letter is in order .

Dear Madam :I have no doubt that since the

establishment of this universit ycorrespondence pro and con th efraternities would fill a substantia lvolume, and I afn sure were i tsubject to literary review it couldall be neatly summarized in thethree little words used by Mr .

Julian in his letter of Novembe r17, namely, and I quote, "pureidiotic drivel ."

Dear Madam :I would like to make an inquiry .

When did good aportmanship, onthe part of UBC students, leavethe campus;' To be more specific ,the attitude shown by the specta-tors at Saturday's basketball gamebetween University of Oregon an dUBC was deplorable. The con-tinual hissing and booing agains tthe visiting team was definitel y

4 not up to UBC's standards of fairplay. This'wlll be remembered bythe Oregon team as a beautifu ldemonstration of small-minded.ness . It we don't throttle this thingNOW our reputation among thePacific Coast Universities will hi tan all time low! How about it ,students?

COTC ThreatensDrastic Actio n• OFFICERS at the Armouries

state that if the COTC equip-ment held by the ex-COTC mem-bers is not turned in at a morerapid rate they will be forced t oput the matter in the hands of th efederal authorities .

This equipment was supposed tobe in by November 15, but returnswere few. Last Friday and Satur-day saw many returns; but onMonday morning only the oddstudent straggled in .

Unless returns come in at a fair-ly reasonable rate COTC will beforced to take drastic action. Suchaction will take the form of in-vestigation by the federal authori-ties. This can be avoided, how-ever, if .students will bring in theirequipment as soon as possible .

Allowance is being made for thefact that the appeal of COTC ma ynot have rcach,d certain student swho aren't on the campus thi snor . Anyone who knows suc h'c-members of the COTC wh o

There are many individuals an dgroups in history to whom altru-ism can be ascribed as the moti-vating influence, viz : Christ andChristianity, Marx and Commun-ism, but such individuals an dgroups took the leadership in th eface of great opposition and tri-umphed because of the very uni-versality of their principles. Some -how, scarcely, I think, the Greeksfall into this category .

The pathological condition of th eworld toddy requires the adoptio nby men of an altruistic philoso-phy; a more genuine and sincer eattempt to "know thy neighbor "irregardless of class, color or in-terests.

No, Mr. Julian, when the frater-nities dust off their constitutions,release themselves from the "goodtime" complex and become reas-onably concerned about the prob-lems of human welfare, historymay judge them altruistic .

A criticism which is often applied tocampus organizations and activities, and acriticsm which hurts the most, whethe rjustified or not, is that the activities or pro -ducts of the organization in question are"childish" .

We have often heard this criticism of th eUbyssey by people who scan the editorialsand the columns and express dissatisfactio nthat most of the topic dealt with ore of loca lcampus interest instead of dealing with postwar politics, the Windsor strike, Argentina ,or the Chinese internal problems .

We have also heard the statement tha tstudents at the University of British Colum-bia are "living in an ivory tower" . It is forthis reason that the Literary and ScientificExecutive has recommended that the Ubys-sey take the lead in solving national andinternational problems by devoting a pagean issue to voluntary student contribution.

Actually aside from the fact that we'reprimarily a newspaper and haven 't got thespace, many of us feel that there are veryfew students qualified to analyze broadnational and international political andeconomic issues by having a complete know-ledge of all the background information .Printed opinions in partial information arefar more dangerous than omission of printe dopinions .

Although a glance at our files will showthat controversial topic have not been ig-nored in our paper, we also feel thatcitizenship, like charity, begins at home. TheUniversity of British Columbia which allowsmore freedom to its students than the greatmajority of North American universities ,

• THE FALL PLAYS have come an dgone, and in their wake lies a forlorn

Green Room, several dressing rooms

smeared with grease paint and cold cream,

dozens of costumes, and three stage sets .An interesting thing to note is that the

first play, "The Rainmaker" is the latestwork of Gwen Pharis, the authoress whowrote one of the first truly Canadian plays-- "Still Stands the House" . . . "The Rain-maker" was first produced in Banff lastsumnlhr . . . Beverley Wilson, sophomoreassistant director of the play, saw this pro-duction while she was enjoying the privilege sof a scholarship to the University of Alberta'sExtension Department's drama school inBanff during the summer . . . Nancy Bruce,co-director with Dorothy Somerset, was atthe Banff school in the summer of 1944 . . .The man on the switchboard, Mr. Macveigh,was in Saskatchewan in 1921, says he re -members Hatfield . . . Freshman Allan Cory ,who played Jimmy, says his father wasthere, and that his father says it didn 't rain,so there . , . No less than 16 young boystried out for the five available roles. Allfrom University Hill School, the chosenwere: Donald Gunning, 5-year old son ofProf. H. C. Gunning of the Geology Depart-ment ; Pat MacKenzie, 8-year son of thePresident, who says that acting is fun, but"not better than skiing " ; Gundy McLeod, 8 ;Alastair Drummond, 6, son of the economic sprofessor ; and Graeme Balcom, 6 . . .

also has its own problems. All problemshave to be coped with, and since the Ubysse yis the only paper interested solely in th eUniversity of British Columbia, it is logicalthat the majority of our space should be de-voted to the University of British Columbia .

However, we don't want to be social

"ostriches", and since *e ourselves thinkthat student thought is just as important asstudent activity, we have decided to d osomething about it ourselves in such a wa y

Thunderbird. In spite of LSE recommend-as will not clip the wings of the infan t

ations concerning voluntary contributions ,we have found that very few students areinterested enough in social, economic, an dpolitical problems to take time out to typ eand double-space articles in time to meetdeadlines .

We are establishing a "Man on the Cam-pus" forum for panel discussions on curren ttopics which will be selected, with the co -

operation of the student body, by means of

letters to the editor or personal interview .

Four people will be chosen by the Editor-in-

Chief to write 750 to 1,000 words on each

topic and one article will appear in eachTuesday and Thursday issue of the Ubysey .

Each author will have his signature abovehis article and will be wide open for attack

from the letters-to-the-editor writers, whoare, God bless them, flourishing on the

campus as never before .

We have been putting beauties on thespot with. successful results . The result ofthis new experiment should be interesting .

Watch for annoncement of the panel inthe Thursday Ubyssey .

The club, by its very nature, is not onlyin the news, it also makes the headlines . Inthis way it is unfortunate that a'little bit ofJoker off-color stuff or a few antics vergin gon infraction of campus discipline whichmight be forgotten in other instances, arelikely to have a lasting impression on th egeneral student body. Every organizationon the campus needs the support of olde rstudents. The Jokers Club is definitely n oexception to this now obvious rule .

It's too bad that the organizations whic hdo the most work receive the most criticism.We like you, boys, and wish that moreorganizations on the campus had a sense ofhumor; but keep it clean, — and orderly .

SCM Guest Regrets

Isolation Attitude

• MISS PHYLLIS RAE ADEN was guest speaker at ameeting of the SCM held in And . 312 on Fri . at 2:30 ,

Miss Aden has served as a leader in the Student Christia nAssociation work and has spent eighteen years in Argentina .

Her informal talk consisted of ahistory and background of pion-eering missionaries in foreign lands ,and the Christian attitude of UScollege students, and her ownfindings as to the current students'troubles in Argentine ,

Miss Aden stated that the isol-ationist viewpoint of US collegestudents was regrettable. She saidthey wish to be by themselves anddo not want to have anything t odo with the outer world. MissAden thinks this attitude to beobjectionable in view of the factthat Christians have, a responsibil-ity to the world and should wor kwherever they are most needed.

The trouble in Argentine betwee nthe students and the governmen twas briefly accounted for by th espeaker, She claimed that in Arg-entine the Catholic hierarchy an dthe government work hand in gloveand do this autocratically . It isagainst such autocracy that thestudents there are expressing suc hviolent disapproval.

"Perhaps he's a D .P," gurglesthe assistant (he has personalit yplus) .

"What does that mean—defi-nitely putrid? "

"Scoop!" a newshound besideher shreiks ecstatically . "What astory — 'Algae . Studies Co-ed.'What a break!" and he crashesthrough a convenient window onhis way to the nearest typewriter.

The assistant slips his quivern ghands into his pocket. "And how,"his voice is ominously low, "doyou see invisible little things?" Hisvoice staggers suddenly and heweaves his way toward the suppl yroom.

"What do you want?" the facebehind the counter demands .

The lab assistant slips his soggysmock to the floor. He gasps, qui-vering like a fly with DDT trouble ,"I need---- a drink . Make minean iodine cocktail . "

I was on my way up to the Blue Boy, and as usual, I wastaking a shortcut across the Fairview School grounds. Therewere a bunch of kids warming up for a grid battle, but Iwas going along minding my own business when, all of asudden, one of these kids yelled at me.

"Hey Mister, can you play football? We need anothe r

guy . "That did it. I haven't played since my grade school days ,

so I joined them. This kid said he was the captain of th eKitsilano Cougars and he explained that his ace quarter-back hadn't showed up .

The dirty-faced captain of our opponents, the Fairvie wBulldogs, said the team would let me play for the Cougarsas long as they could have the top end of the field ,

Dig Out The Shoulder PadsWe won the toss, so they kicked to us . A little squirt

raised both arms over his head, lowered them, and then ra nup to the ball just like in big-time football. I looked up inamazement when this little squirt booted one for a good 3 5yards right at me.

I caught the pigskin and started to run. But that waswhere I made a mistake. I should have passed because a ssoon as I started to move, something hit me and I fell to th eground like a ton of bricks.

That was enough for me. I let the other guys carry theball from then on. I just threw passes until my arm wasstiff.

It was a close game all the way. And with three minutesleft, the score was tied at 15-all. We were in possession ofthe ball. It was our last down and we were on their 30-yardline. We just had to get a touchdown .

One of our men had played end for Ranji Mattu 's BlueBombers and he could catch anything, so we decided' to trya pass . We huddled, and the captain called a play which h esaid he had seen the Magee team use a couple of weeks ago .

It Was A Thrilling FinishThe play called for a long diagonal pass following a

reverse . The captain, playing blocking back, received theball, and turned and handed it to me as I cut across behindhim. Fading off to the right, I looked ahead to the left fo rthe kid I was supposed to pass to .

The tricky little ex-Blue Bomber had run to the left an dthen made a sharp break for the goal-line. 'I nearly thre wmy arm off as I hurled a long, high'pass in his direction .

I didn't think he would get it because the pass seemed tobe too far ahead of him. But the kid jumped up in the ai rand pulled down the pigskin like a veteran, just as he wa scrossing the Bulldogs ' line. It was a touchdown, and thegame ended, 20-15, for the Cougars .

After the game, I hobbled off to the Blue Boy where Ibumped into Kicker and Mike . These two characters tal kabout nothing but football all the time, so I tried to evad ethem.

Besides, this guy called Kicker didn't get his name becaus eof his ability on the gridiron, although he can boot a meankick. He got his name from kicking so many characters inthe teeth .

Kicker Broke With A ScoopBut this guy Kicker beckoned to me when he saw >n e

come in the door, so, not wishing to get into his bad books ,I meandered over to him .

"Say listen, Luke," he said. "I got a scoop for youse . Ihear some BTO's talking about putting on a big East-Wes tgame here on New Year 's Day."

I thought he was kidding, so I brushed him off .But today I heard more news on this grid deal . It seems

there are some sport-minded business men who wish t opromote a Canadian Inter-collegiate Football Championshipseries. It would be a two-game series to be played here on

Boxing Day and New Year 's Day.This would mean that UBC 's Thunderbirds, Western

Conference champions, would get a chance to tackle th e

eastern titlists .It sounds like a great idea as long as we don 't get rooked

like we did in the Hardy Cup series . Here's hoping th e

deal goes through .

With the start of the final stanza ,the Students went on a rampagethat left their opponents baffled .Story began the parade of tryswith his second of the afternoo nand in quick succession Hec Ros-setti, Hartt Crosby, Bob Croll, an dBarney Curby crossed the Rowers'goal-line . Nesbitt added two moreconverts and a penalty drop kickto finish the scoring at 27-3 infavor of Varsity .

It was a complete reversal ofform for the 'Birds and makesthem favorites to repeat last year' swinning of the crown . The winner swere led by their tricky back, BobCroll, who, along with Don Nesbit ,set up most of the scoring plays .

Tied BY Savoy

• UBC's soccer teams had them -, selves a good weekend on th ewindy pitches . Varsity drew withSavoys 2-2, and UBC beat Coquit-lam 1-0.

This draw left Varsity tied forthird place in the 'A' division ,while UBC's win puts them in sol epossession of second place in th e'B' division ,

On the stadium upper field, theVarsity roundballers had a roughtime with the wind in the firsthalf . Savoys, with the wind intheir favor, racked up a couple ofcounties before Varsity could ge torganized. The visitor's secondgoal was truly a story-book feat ,as Hughie Brown dived head firstto head in a low cross from th ewing .WILSON INJURED

Varsity's right full-back GeorgeWilson sprained his ankle and thelineup was shifted so that BobWilson played right wing and Bu dRay took over goal-tending duties .

Just before the half ended, Var -sity centre forward, Harry Ker-mode, tapped the ball through theposts to put the Blue and Gol din the scoring column and end th ehalf s scoring in Savoys' favor 2-1.

In the second half, Varsity hadthe wind behind them but theydidn't have their share of .luck .The Varsity team was camped inSavoys' territory during the whol ehalf and the best they could dowas a tally by Sid Gorrie whoheaded in one of Bob Wilson' scrosses .THOMAS TALLIES
