SUB g rowsfrom gleamto reality

The student union building goes onto the drawingboards this month after a four year struggle during whichthe '64 grads have watched SUB grow from a gleam in DeanFeltham's eye to a full-fledged and fully financed building.

"Over 90 architects shouldsubmit first stage plans by th eJuly deadline, making this th elargest competition in NorthAmerica for student unions, "says planning committee headDean Feltham .

Toward the end of his life h efound it very difficult to carryon, but he was never known t ocomplain though he was ofte nin great pain.

Doctors had t o l d him heshould give up his nwork but h erefused . They said if he stoppe dit would extend his life, bu tagain he refused .

James Maclntyre, a lecture rin law at UBC, said his fathe rhad loved his classes too muc hto give them up .

"His whole life revolve daround his work," Maclntyresaid .

"He could not have given upeven if he had wanted to . Heknew he was going to die, andhe wouldn't stop teaching justto put it off . "

James Maclntyre says he wil lhis father's foot-

"He did it, but it was reall ypathetic to see him work hislife away for us, but somehowhe managed to finish the job hestarted .

"Those of us that passed thisyear owe a lot to ProfessorMaclntyre . "

But perhaps the tribute tha tProfessor Maclntyre w o u l dhave appreciated most camefrom a fellow member of UBC' slaw faculty, assistant professo rJ. C. Smith: "He died doin gwhat he wanted to do, but howhe found the strength I don' tknow—it was the most absolutedevotion I think I will eve rsee ."

The wagon, a 1957 Chevwhich has been in a state ofrapid deterioration for thelast seven years, is bein gtraded in on a new one .

And, according to traffi c'patrol head Cece Paul, it isgood riddance .

"We drove the old bus about70,000 miles over the years, "he said. "And most of thos emiles were in low gear a tunder 20 miles-an-hour .

"It is incredible that it eve nlasted this long . "

Paul said the new wago nwould be a 1964 Chev station

AMS shells outfor rank amateur

The AMS has started t ohire amateurs as well as pro-fessionals .

Besides obtaining the serv-ices of a publications co -ordinator and an executivesecretary recently, studentcouncil has approved retain-ing AMS President RogerMcAfee at a $400-per-monthsalary for the summer .

"I think the policy ofhiring the president to workduring the summer will endthe tradition of his having totake a year off from studiesto be able to conduct all stu-dent business properly," saidMcAfee .

"The president can pre-pare his year's program dur-ing the summer and have i tready for council at the be -ginning of the year .

"I'm spending an averageof 12-13 hours a day on th ejob, including evening meet-ings and business dinners ."

These preliminary designswill be narrowed down to four ,with selected entrants receiv-ing a prize of $2,500 each and ,competing with expanded plansin the final .

An award of $3,000 pluscosts is at stake .

Deadline for entries in th efinal stage of the competitionwill be sometime in October ,with the Board of Assessors 'decision expected before theend of that month .

Making up the board are W .W. Wurster, San Francisco;Professor Henry Elder, UBC ;Guy Desbarats, Montreal ; andJames Murray, Toronto, wit hFeltham and Warnett Kennedyof Vancouver as non-votin gadvisors.

"The grad class's gift of afountain for the SUB has beentaken into consideration in thearchitectural plans, at an ex-pected cost of $8,000," saidFeltham .

"Any deficiency betweenthis and the graduates' contrib-ution will be made up by theAlma Mater Society .

"We have not received acheque to date from the class,"he . added .

Get rid of dirt, grimeand grads in a minuteBy MIKE HUNTER, BA '6 3Groping thr6ught the dus t

that has accumulated on ournews desk since we buried thelast volume of Ubysseys, w ecame upon a press handoutmarked For Immediate Re-lease, from, of all people ,Proctor and Gamble . It con-tained word that anothe rUBC graduate has made hismark in this world, which weof course were very glad t ohear .

It seems one Clifton W .Healey, B. Comm . 1960, hasbeen promoted in P&G's ad-vertising department—to th egroup responsible for con-sumer marketing of Mr .Clean, the man who gets ridof dirt and grime and greas ein just a minute .

Mr. Healey, we are inform-ed, will assist in planningadvertising and sales promo-tion campaigns for the pro -duct, and in co-ordinatin gmarket research, product re-search, . budgeting and packag-ing activities .

* * *This being graduation time ,

when everything is rosy andglowing and hallowed, itcame as a bit of a shock to usto discover what subversivethings UBC grads actually doafter they get out of-here .

We have always been suspi-cious of commercemen, themand their thin ties and olivecorduroy jackets, and thos esuper-confident little grin swiped all over their faces .Well, now we know it's al ltrue .

When commercemen gradu-ate, they run gleefully ontoMadison Avenue and beginwriting those excruciatingsoap commercials . Terrorizingour youth. Driving us to tran-quilizers (Benz-E-Pep, withZX-3), teasing our ids, playin gon our neuroticisms, exploit-ing our secret desires, andgenerally interrupting ourPrime Time bliss .

Healey, where's your senseof loyalty to Alma Mater? Tothink we have to listen tosinging commercials compos-ed, planned, co-ordinated, re-searched, budgeted, and pack-aged by a UBC grad !

Why didn't you want to b ea nuclear physicist, or an

engineer, or an aggie, likeother red-blooded students ?

But wait a minute .

What's so good a b o u tTHEM ?

After all, it's those nuclearphysicists who made TheBomb, that curse which isnext only to singing soap com-mercials as a threat to ou rsearch for peace and content-ment .

* * *It's the aggies who put the

weed killer in our milk an dbutter; it's the engineers whobuild those eyesore apartmen tslums; the architects andthe planners who design thetraffic-jammed roads ; the law-yers 'who snarl everythingwith red tape .

All those grads of the otherfaculties — they're no betterthan that thin-tied terror 'be -hind the soap bubbles .

And to ' think you're goin gto join them . Migawd. You'reall out to get us .

You know, the more wethink about it, the more webegin to agree with a spiteful ,black-haired demon we onceworked for . What was it hesaid ?

"If there's one thing thisworld can't stand, it's a bunchof goddam university kids . "

* * *Well, there you are, all un-

avoidably capped and gown-ed. Emblazoned with the stig-ma of knowledge .

Go forth, and pursue yourdespicable purpose .

Ivy and UBCIt 's a little hard to be reminiscent about UBC . We' d

love to spill some purple prose about the ivy-covere d

walls, the past glories, and the days when we defeated

traditional Yurtsford at rounders .

But we don't have much ivy. What there is has been

carefully cultivated to hold up some of our shakie r

shacks. And we haven't been around long enough to have

any rivals of the "drink-up-and-remember-the-good-old -

days" variety.

So with UBC 's lack of real tradition you may be

wondering why all the medieval ceremony, as your fla that, tassel and bulky gowns combine to make graduation

thoroughly uncomfortable . You may also be a little

miffed to discover your part of the ceremony takes about

as long as it does to swat a fly . You may also be con-

.erned that you are only one out of some 1,900 students

graduating this year.

It would seem a good time to ask yourself just what

you ' ve gained. Four years have taught the majority of

graduates a slice of science, a pithy bit of information

about ancient philosophy and the full realization that life

after university is going to be very different . A few

others have been taught such highly specialized subjects

as to have become super-departmentalized . They become

so departmentalized as to be unable to talk to anyone bu tother super-departmentalized souls . And they probably

won't have to if they continue at universities for the

rest of their lives .

For the majority, though, -all the courses in

(philosophy) (electronics) (English) will be wasted. Infuture years at cocktail parties they will recall the name sof the odd author or concept, briefly pull it out, andthen shove it away after whoever they were talking t ohas failed to see its significance .

After university most . companies seem to think agraduate needs to be retrained. He has to be. Much ofthe material he's learned isn't much good. And as thebright-eyed graduate enters the accounting office for th efirst day they tell him to forget what he 's learned andstart learning about double accounting and income taxa-tion loopholes .

And suddenly he realizes he isn ' t in university anymore. And a little later some department head tells himto do something and when he's finished there isn't amark for the effort, just another job. And the studentsuddenly realizes people are treating him as if he wa scapable of handling the odd responsible job . He 's not justa feckless - wreckless student. He becomes a citizen —something the university hardly trains him to be .

'Bye shambulanceIt is with deep regret we note the graduation of the

university's famed shambulance . Like all good grads thecombination traffic car and ambulance has been set ou tto pasture—in the harsh surroundings of a junk yard .

And this is where most students thought themachine should have been in the first place when i tappeared on the campus two years ago . Mostly it got i nthe way, ticketing cars and generally adding confusion .

The ambulance function it was supposed to servewas always a bit of a laugh . It had an ill-equipped firstaid box and was too short for a stretcher to fit in .

Still it was a part of the university. It did many goodthings . Sometimes even it helped students when theywere stuck in the depths of C-lot late at night and it di d

kart the odd injured student to Wesbrook hospital, evenif he did have to stand .

And without the shambulance UBC lost anotherlittle bit of its character. We hope the new one thatreplaces it isn 't too efficient and well-painted . We hopeit doesn't look like an ambulance or a traffic patrol carany more than our old shambulance did .

ROGER McAFE EAMS Presiden t

A university graduate ha sa very difficult role to play atany time, but graduates ofthis university will probablybe called upon to play an evenmore difficult role in an evenmore difficult period .

This province is currentlyundergoing an educationalrevolution .

Two new institutions ofhigher learning have recentl ycome into being . The competi-tion for loyalties and dollar swill be keener than ever, anda full-scale war among thethree could very easily de-velop .

The people of the provinc eare being bombarded withfacts and figures about th etwo youngest institutions andit seems at times like UBChas been completely writtenoff .

You are going to be badger-ed by critics who insist UB Chas reached the "stale" stageand needs a little competitionto brighten it up . You aregoing to be put upon by theignorant, demanding to knowwhy a university as big asUBC should receive fundswhen a poor, struggling insti-tution like Simon Fraser real-ly needs the money to getgoing? Inanity will follow in-anity .

You'll likely get pretty fedup. You'll likely be temptedto tell such types to drop offthe Lion's Gate Bridge . Orelse you'll spring to the de-fence of UBC, at the expenseof the other two institutions.

This must not happen, be-cause if it does, if you pu tUBC before the educationa lneeds of the province, you wil lbe doing yourself and thisuniversity a great disservice .

As a university graduate ,one of your greatest respon-sibilities in the next few year sshould be to convince the un-initiated of the value of high-er education, regardless o fwhether it is in Vancouver,Burnaby or Victoria .

So when you are tempted todefend UBC at the expense o fthe others, remember that oneof the things this universityhas tried to teach you i stolerance .

As the graduating class of

1964 prepares to leave thecampus I want to add my

word of congratulation tothose parents and close friend swho are elated, though no tsurprised I am sure, at you rsuccess .

Some of you will be set-ting out on well-charted seas .Others will be entering upo nuncharted, stormy and pre-carious voyages in distantparts of the world or of theeconomy, or beyond the fron-tiers of scientific knowledge .

Still others will set sail o nthe sea of matrimony.

To all of you I say goodluck. We hope that we havegiven you the preparatio nwhich you need in the yearsahead .

But do come back occasion -ally to re-charge your bat-teries . Become active mem-bers of your alumni associa-tion, the better to build soun dcolleges and universities wher-ever you go .

The friendships and associa-tions of your days here willsustain you for the rest ofyour lives, incredible thoughthis may seem to you now.UBC looks to you as a groupto change the world for thebetter. I wish you health andstrength in your endeavours .

Miss Smith went to theUnited States to complete hergraduate work but returnedto become part of the librar ystaff in 1930 .

Miss Smith said she ha sbeen giving students lectures

on the use of the library fo ras long as she can remember .

The Ubyssey asked Mis sSmith what an honorary vic epresident does .

"Frankly, I don't know,"she said, "and I don't thinkanyone else does . I've beentrying to find out .

"I have to make a fewspeeches, and serve at th etree planting ceremony. Butthat's about all .

"It's a great honor, though, "she said .

Miss Smith is also head o fthe library research division .

"I don't quite know whythey selected me for the posi-tion," Miss Smith said . " Idon't know too many studentsof this generation .

So he's coming back to takecourses in languages and econ-omics — and also math an dphysics, "to keep in touch".

"Ideally, I would have like dto take a five-year program ,the extra time being used fo r

I could do it was to graduatein science and come back . "

The class of 1964 is the firs tclass to graduate without hav-ing been hazed .

The practice of harrassingfrosh was stopped by the AMSin 1960 .

The Ubyssey asked an oldpubster if he remembered thegood old days .

"Actually this is where th edunking all began," he croak-ed .

"Frosh used to be told theyhad to wear a frosh beanie ,sawed off blue jeans, a shirton backwards, and a sign call-ed a frosh report card, a bigpiece of cardboard loope daround their neck," the old-timer recalled .

`Any upper classman couldcheck a frosh to make sure h ewas wearing the correct dress .If not, we'd chuck him in th epond, or make him wash Broc klounge floor with a toothbrush.

"Not more than five min-utes will be allowed between

1 classes," says SFA president

Patrick McTaggart - Cowan ."That's all that's necessary . "

"Simon Fraser will be ayear-round operation," say schancellor Gordon Shrum ."That way a student doesn' thave to waste time . He canget out of here sooner . "

Forget about that lovelyhilltop, traditional-type stu-dent. SFA won't be a mustybookstore to browse in . It'l lbe Woodward's on $1 .49 Day .

SFA is speeding toward it starget opening date of Sep-tember 1965 .

* * *Architects completed plan s

in nine months instead of th eexepcted 27 .

Already $14 million worthof buildings are under con-

struction—an academic quad-rangle, a library, a gymnas-ium, and a science complex .

Chancellor Shrum is prou dof this ultra-modern univer-sity-in-a-hurry . The chancellorseldom discusses SFA withoutgleefully announcing :

* * *"Once a student' takes off

his rubbers in the morning ,he won't need to put them onagain until he leaves fo rhome at night . "

Imagine that, traditional-type student! Day after glor-ious day without rubbers .

Maybe you'd better recon-sider . No other university canpromise both Burnaby Moun-tain and dry feet, too .

Not even Oxford .6

VALEDICTORY

Into cruel world : purposefully?

With the passing ofMalcolm Scott from thecampus, an era has com eto an end at UBC .

In the six years he ha sbeen a man about thi scampus, the cheery, chub-by Scott has held fiveelected positions .

He's a member of th emen's honorary society .Sigma Tau Chi . He hasalso received the honesary activity's award, theAlma Mater Society' shighest service award .

And he has received aneven greater distinction .

"Malcolm can truly becalled a friend to every -one on campus," saidDean Feltham, who ha sworked with Scott in th epast two years as toge-ther they conceived, plan-ned, and almost single -handedly convinced thestudent body of the nee dfor a student union build-ing .

Scott appeared on UB Cin 1959, an emigree fro mVictoria. The same yea rhe was operations ma nager of the film society .By 1960 he was treasure rof that organization, hisfirst step up the ladder t osuccess .

He never looked back .By 1963, alread y

twice treasurer of theAMS, he reached the pin-nacle of student govern -ment. He was electe dpresident of the society ,a $700,000 drganization ,that year.

By PETER SHEPARDDu -ing the years we haveen at UBC our lives hav e

I:en channelled towards this'ny. Many have gone befor e

us, working in the factory onthe same job and leaving withthe same box of tools which. ve, ourselves, have now manu-factured .

It is unfortunate but neces-sary that in today's age ofmass education, manufactur eof the required box of toolsnecessitates an organization

who have criedattendance spenttime looking atand not enough

time observing the quality ofthe attractions .TALENT MEDIOCRE

The real reason varsity sportshave few fans is the low cali-bre of the athletic talent.

Students will not accept amediocre standard of sportsfrom a major university. Anduntil the quality of athletic sparallels the size of the univer-sity, student support will notbe forthcoming.

Happily, the long overdue,ransition from a minor to ma-jor centre of college sports ,ppears to be underway at UBC .Several top-quality coaches ,

'ncluding Lionel Pugh, one ofEngland's best in track an dfield, will join UBC's depart-ment of Physical Educatio nnext fall .

Committees are investigat-ing ways to stretch the athleticbudget and provide athleticscholarships .LEAVE LEAGU E

Thunderbird teams havewithdrawn from the weak andsprawling WCIAA in favor o fa two-year schedule againstmuch stronger American com-petition. Besides gaining bette rcompetition, varsity sports wil lsave greatly in travel expenses .

In football, hockey an dbasketball alone the savin gwill be $10,000 .

Other promising signs ar epossible admission of t h eThunderbird team to the Paci-fic Coast Soccer League, andprobable representation in

resembling a factory produc-tion line . It is certainly noone's fault, particularly notthat of the administration o rour professors .

With the number of student sincreasing so rapidly, quali-fied professors and good facili-ties are now at a premium .The result is an impersonaleducation in which standardsmust be met, exams passed ,

essays written and laboratoriescompleted .

The tools manufactured

this year's Olympics by th eUBC rowing crews and grasshockey team.TWO PROBLEMS

However there are currentlytwo major problems .

The building of the new Stu -dent Union Building means anew sports stadium will hav eto be built and the funds forit raised promptly since workon the SUB will start thiscoming year .

Also Thunderbird sport snow have much stronger com-petition than in past years, andare desperately short of ath-letes because of severe restric-tions on athletic scholarships .

But, thanks to Dr . Gordon,Shrum's plans to offer ath-letic scholarships at SFA, resis-tance at UBC's upper levelsmay soften.STRETCH SUPL Y

Meanwhile, Thund e r b i r dcoaches will have to stretch athin supply of talent eventhinner to attempt to completesuccessfully with the toughe rcompetition .

S h r u m's much - publicize dplans to point up the need tooverhaul UBC's athletics tomake SFA a major sports cen-tre.

UBC athletic officials are an-ticipating an intense rivalrywith the Burnaby campus andlook forward to a possibleleague made up of UBC, SFAand Victoria College .

Nuffield awardDr. Philip V a s s a r, of th e

faculty of medicine, has beenawarded a Nuffield Foundatio ngrant for cancer research a tLondon University College ,England .

from such an education arethe ones that will enable usto get a job. The fact that w ehave manufactured these toolsto the required specificationsis symbolized by the degree swhich we will receive thi safternoon .

There are, however, otherutensils which we must hav eat our disposal . They havenot been manufactured on th eproduction line but have bee ndeveloped during our lunc hhours and many coffee breaks .

By entering into political ,religious, a n d sociologicaldiscussions, by joining clubs,by attending social functionsand, in general, by participat-ing in the kaleidoscope ofactivities varying from ath-letics to academic symposia ,we have acquired essentia ltools .whch will enable us towork with people and to helpsolve the problems f a c i n gsociety today.

* * *While at university our tim e

and effort have been devotedto obtaining these tools. Ourlectures and laboratories tookup most of the day and westudied at night . We workedhard during the summer t ofinance our education .

Our social life and extra-curricular activities have beena necessary psychological bal-ance. Our prime objective ha stoo often been just a desire t oget a degree as a key to the"affluent society" .

At this time we realize thatwe have only been "standinglike dwarfs on the 'shouldersa giant" (Robert Burton) . Werealize the factory has beensupplied by society and th eknowledge contributed by ourforefathers while we h a v egiven relatively nothing ex-cept when the manufacture o four own personal tools was a tstake .

* * *Now we have the basic

equipment . Now we mus tmake our contribution tosociety . Because we have alarger box of tools than non -university graduates, our con-tribution must be that muchgreater .

The tools which we manu-factured on the productionline we shall use to earn a liv-

ing. In our particular fields wemust apply ourselves unspar-ingly. We must strive for thebest technique, the most com-prehensive theory, the b e s twork of art or the most ef-ficient operation.

In order to contribute tosociety we must build on theideas and principles we havebeen taught . If we do not weare merely using the tools ina mediocre way, resulting ina complacent a n d selfishsociety .

* * *A more effective way to re -

pay our debt is to expand an duse the "coffee break andlunch hour" tools which w edevised by entering into extra-curricular activities and par-ticipating in discussion . Wenow have more time to de-velop and use these specialtools and we must take advant-age of this opportunity .

We must turn our thoughtsto the social problems of ourtime. We must evaluate thedecisions and policies of ourgovernments and ensure tha tthey are taking a responsibl eapproach. We must help dispellhatred, untruths and narrow-mindedness.

We must challenge the oldinstitutions and be cautious ofthe new. We must , take anactive interest in welfaresocieties, youth organizations,church groups and politicalclubs. It is up to us to con-tribute to society by comingforth with our ideas and par-ticipating in the issues of ou rtime .

* * *rA university equips us onl y

with the essential tools . Wemust continue to develop newtools and to throw out thos ewhich we find corroded. Ifwe do not, our effectivenessin society will soon fade .

It is easy for me to standbefore this graduating class ,and on your behalf thank thepeople who have made oureducation possible : to thankour professors, our parents,

the taxpayers, and the admini-stration. I believe, however,that our true. thanks and ap-preciation can best be shownby all of us in the years t ocome, by making the world abetter place in which to live .

The wrong number wa sthe corrections one

If you're looking for SFA president Patrick MlcTaggart -Cowan, try the department of corrections .

A Ubyssey reporter dialed the wrong number whentrying to reach the academy Tuesday, and asked for Mc -Taggart-Cowan .

"He's not here," said a voice, sweetly.'This is the department of corrections . Should he be

here?""Why don't you call back later," the voice cooed .

Electrons beam on

future metallurgistsBy CAROL ANN BAKE R

The metallurgists at UB Cwill be seeing things moreclearly this fall .

The department of metal-lurgy has a new electron micro -scope .

The microscope, made i nJapan, is the Hitachi model11A .

It is worth $38,000 and fin-anced by grants from the UBCBoard of Governors and theNational Research Council .

The new microscope usesbeams of electrons instead ofthe beams of visible light usedin ordinary light microscopes .

Dr . Edward Teghtsoonian, as-sociate professor of Metallurgy,

said that the wave lengths ofthe electrons are many time sshorter than the wave lengthsof visible light making possibl ea much higher degree of magni-fication .

UBC's new microscope willhave a magnifying power of100,000 times . Ordinary lightmicroscopes have a magnifyin gpower of only 2,000 times .

More literature,more character

TORONTO (CUP) -- Mon treal has more "character " thanother Canadian cities, accord-ing to a McGill professor .

Dr. Brian Robinson told stu-dents this is the reason somuch great literature has com eout of Montreal .

Victoria College's first con -vocation saw 168 graduate sreceive their degrees thisweek .

Chancellor J . B . Clerihuepresided at the ceremony Mon -day, first since Victoria Col-lege attained university statusin 1963 .

Previously, degrees w e r egranted through UBC .

First honorary degree, a doc-torate of laws, was conferre don Jeffree Cunningham, for-mer zoology professor at th ecollege .

Judge Clerihue was installedas chancellor by Lieutenant -Governor George Pearkesprior to the convocation cer emony.

"It is a wonderful experienceto see coming true the drea mof this institution becoming auniversity," said Pearkes .

The chancellor told the con -vocation that facilities at th euniversity would be inade-quate by September, 1965 ,even if a public fund drive forexpansion of the Gordon Headcampus reached its $5 millionobjective .

"To handle the expected2,400 registration by 1965, tw o$1.7 million buildings, one for'arts and education, one for

laboratories, social sciences ,and administration are need-ed, " said Clerihue .

"But I doubt if we will getthe latter by 1966," he added .

of traffic, said the new sham-bulance will be equipped witha red light and siren .

"But we hope they don'thave to use them," he said .

"But it is an emergency ve-hicle as well as a patrol car ,and the siren is required bylaw. "

Sir Ouvry said the newwagon probably wouldn't be ,

around as long as the last one .

The old wagon could b eseen carrying its burden ofsunny-faced patrolmen aroundcampus at almost any hour o fthe day or night .

It served as the subject ofpranks, engineers' and other-wise. In its years at UBC ithad the air let out of its tirescountless times, and was evenpainted a bright red once .

Its passing will be mourne dby none and hailed by all .

PROPHECY

Black looks into a brighter future for gradsBy ANDREW BLACK

Every year, at this time, forthis special occasion a gradu-ating student is asked to takeupon himself a task for whichhe is ill-prepared . The prophetof old was keen-eyed and al-ways on the right spot at th eright time. He would havefound it much more difficult i fwearing spectacles and attend-ing lectures. Its like asking acampus mole to predict thefuture . But after all, a mol edoes emerge occasionally and ,no doubt, the meaning of som eof the big reverberations com-ing from above must registe rin his tiny brain .

So, unprepared and ill-quali -fied as I am, I would like t ooffer some of my mole-likeruminations and forecasts i fyou will give me your atten-tion .

* * *Last year gave time enough

for students, educators and thepublic alike to digest the Mac-Donald Report . It came as ashock to most of us — a shake-up from complacency . Thisyear, as expected, has seen theinflux of more and more stu-dents to UBC. We can seethat there is a very real limit

to the number of students thi suniversity can educate . We areapproaching this limit rapidly .But now, the Simon FraserUniversity is a very real thing— no longer an architect' sdream, no longer "FearlessTom's" Herculean task to findit . We now have, besides TheUniversity of Victoria, munici-pal groups in the Okanaganand the Fraser Valley especi-ally planning for two-year col-leges that will eventually be-come the universities of thefuture .

* * *

Debate is bound to continueas to whether the full yearoperation of our universitie sas against the present seven -month system, is best, that is ,best scholastically or economi-cally .

Students meet new teacherswith stimulating ideas; theyfind themselves in a differen tenvironment, both demandingand rewarding. This reducesthe danger that the studentmight fall into a "rut" and thedanger of "inbreeding", bothundesirable tendencies, mademanifest when there is a lackof choice in universities . In

fact, the wider the field i nwhich we receive our educa-tion, the greater is the under-standing between the people ofthe world. And this leads meto my next prediction—withthis kind of improved com-munication will come thelikelihood of Internationa lpeace. But it makes fresh de-mands on us . It is not enoughto be able to boast that ou rphysics and chemistry depart-ments are as well equipped a sany in North America . Forthose we lose to other univer-sities, we must attract other sand this means not only ne wbuildings and equipment, butfunds to provide for fellow-ships and assistantships forstudents from the U.S. and ,indeed, from any other partof the world . This is an abso-lute necessity.

* * *

During the past severalyears that this graduating clas shas been part of the univer-sity, there have been certai nchange s. One that we al lnoticed, not only the Agricul-tural students, (and obviou seven to the underground mole)is the diminishing of the uni -

versity farm area . Althoughwe have been clearing the af-forested area of our endow-ment land, building sites an dparking lots have encroache dmore rapidly on the farm acre-age than anywhere else .

* * *While dealing with small

but important faculties, I feel

confident in predicting a re -

volution in the attitude towar d

agriculture and agricultura l

training, which will also cer-

tainly apply to the school ofHome Economics. The fullsignificance of the world' shungry imbalance and the rol eof research through food pro-duction and technology has ye tto be realised .

Man has reached a uniqu erevolutionary stage at whichtime he has within his grasp,weapons capable of destroyinghis very breed . But I predictthat man will never deliber-ately use atomic power as aninstrument of war . These wea-pons have come from scientificeducation. Also through edu-cation, and even more remark-ably so, comes a total rejectionof the atom bomb . From these

two facts I predict that, whil escience and the humanities are

taught side by side, the one

will control and balance the

other .

The importance of the re-

presentation of the Universitycommunity in the governmentwill be more fully realized infuture years as shown by thesupport of such public figuresas MLAs, McGeer and Loff-mark .

* * *In years to come, there will

be more co-operation betwee nvarious levels of education . In-tegration is the word . Stu-dents in schools will be madeaware of university objectivesand programmes, no longersomething remote as Camelot,set up on cloud nine. Presi-dents, men like Dr . J . B . Mac -Donald, may yet assume re-sponsibilities greater than anyman should be called upon tobear. I predict that part ofthis heavy burden must andwill be borne by this year' sgraduating class, over 200 0strong, as it leaves these pre-cincts to become responsibl ecitizens of the world .

CLASS HISTOR Y

A quick, nostalgic glimseat year that went too fast

THOSE OTHER YEARS : The retreats at Elphinstone . . .

. . . remember the sneaky radar traps . .

By TOM SKUPA

THIS IS THE YEAR THAT WAS . In theyear 1963-64 the University of Britis hColumbia made news of political an d

financial sorts and also in winter and bedroo msports .

The year started early for the UBC-basedOlympic hockey team . The team lived inshacks donated by the administration an dpractised in the latest monument to studentautonomy, the Thunderbird winter sports cen-tre. Their exhibition games provided some ofthe best hockey the campus will ever see .

The National Federation of Canadian Uni-versity Students changed its name to try an dstop the French-English rift but the CanadianUnion of Students by any other name woul dsmell as well .

As the term got underway, the new loo kin styles was blue bowlers and birthday suit sand the new look in Food Service fare wa sausterity program hamburgers and demi-tassecoffee cups .

*

The New Freddy Wood Theatre, a welcom ecultural addition to any campus, was almostoutshone by an unwelcome cultural event onmost Canadian campuses, The Bitter Ash . Thepremiere production in the theatre, Sala dDays, was a smash hit and did the beautifu lshowplace proud .

The Engineers looked as if they were turn-ing over a new leaf until they smashed theirnew image along with the phoney statues thatthey had placed around campus . Some ar tlovers said that some of the "works of art "were even worth keeping .

Professors in politics became a status sym-bol early in the fall . Everyone wanted to joinPat McGreer in Victoria but only Ralph Loff-mark made it .

Gordon Shrum's contribution to higher (ontop of Burnaby Mountain) education mayprove valuable in the future but to date it i sSFA .

:

Homecoming centered around the goal-postincident where the bad guys (fratmen) took o nthe good guys (Engineers?) . The Great Trekkeraward was presented to Ab Richards at theannual noise fest known as the pep meet andthe Homecoming Queen title went to FroshQueen Musa Linke . Miss Linke made a hattrick of beauty triumphs in January when shewas named queen of the Waterloo Universit yWinter Carnival .

Then came the fateful day, November 22 ,1963 . On that day students were voting onwhether they should build a '$4 mllion Studen tUnion to go with the newly opened wintersports centre . Then came the tragic news of

John F. Kennedy's assassination . The univer-sity closed in respect for the passing of a greatstatesman and students spent a long weekendin front of televesion sets as the tragic stor yunfolded . Voting on SUB continued the follow-ing Monday and the students approved a long-needed campus addition .

Firebugs tried to burn down several campu s'buildings but their attempt to forestall the in-evitable Christmas exams was in vain .

a

s

s

The administration's Christmas presentcame just after the second term started. "FeeHike $50" read the headline . But the studentbody accepted this increased burden with stoi crestraint. Little more than one or two curse swere heard that Friday night at The Arms .

Father Bauer's boys put Canada back onthe map of international hockey in February .Despite the heavy odds against them, both onand off the ice, our boys never forgot theirmanners and came home unscarred. That is ,if being maneuvered out of a second plac efinish into fourth can be termed as comin ghome unscarred .

The Canadian Union of Students cameback into the limelight when the president ofthe organization came to campus to gain sup-port for his policy of appeasement . Then thefun started . The Ubyssey, Canada's fineststudent newspaper for the third successiveyear, was called every name in the book, fro mtreasonous to obscene, for a zoological refer-ence to some of our Eastern "Canadien" com-patriots .

However, the furor soon died down and thecampus began setting up the triennial circus

known as Open House . This year's spectacularwas bigger and better than ever . However, thegeneral public still is not too interested i nhigher education, and attendance reflected thisstate of affairs . Nevertheless, the show was abig hit and one of the more successful .

Then came the biggest surprise package of

the decade. Our Sugar Daddy, commonlyknown as the provincial government, camethrough with UBC's requested monies for adrastically-cut operating budget . But all wasnot sweetness . Just to make us realize who isand always will be boss, the capital grant wa scut appropriately .

For the class of '64, the last set of under-graduate exams we would ever have to writewere the next event on the social calendar .And so, our last year at Alma Mater came toan exhausting end.

What kind of a year was it? A year likeany other year, filled with those events anddances we have come to expect as well as somewe did not expect ; and you were there . Thatwas the year that was .

. . and the bedpush for books .

. . . and, dammitall, those Buster's trucks.

AND THEN there were Grank Gnup's gridders, up against their own goal line, usually . GRADUATION EDITION

Gift last month of $3.5 million from the P . A. Woodwardfoundation has clinched the start of construction for UBC ' snew health science centre .

Salaries

Facultyplumpsfor moreUniversity faculty members

have barely pocketed raisestotalling $710,000, and alreadythey're putting pressure on th eadministration for more raisesand a better system of salaryincrements .

Faculty Association presi-dent Dr . John Norris said Mon -day pressure to increase sal-aries will be maintained con-stantly.

The Board of Governors i nApril granted increases rangin gfrom $400 to $2,000 a year tomost faculty members, accord-ing to merit.

The faculty association ha dpreviously demanded a $1,000across-the-board increase . TheBoard's increase was equival-ent to an average of $813 afaculty member .

Dr. Norris said the Board' splan of merit increases woulc'make for difficulty in attract-ing new staff .

"We can't attract people i fwe don't know what to offerthem," he said .

With the increased salar yfloors and annual increments .also proposed by the facult yassociation in April, the uni-versity could guarantee a be tter deal to prospective profshe said.

Dr. Norris said much of theassociation's lobbying woul dbe directed to getting the in-crement system .
