Problems at Ecoleby Jill Ross
The students of Ecole de Beaux Arts are beginning to show signs of succumbing to overt government pressure.
They had, until recently, shown every determination to remain firm in their resolve to maintain occupation of their school until they had received some genuine assurance that their grievances would be met by some sort of positive action.
Until as late as Monday the occupiers had remained confident of their power and bargaining position. They o- riginally had planned to call a student General Assembly today to reassess the possibility of opening negotiations with the opposing parties. They would have based their decision on a conglomerate report containing all proposals collected by the various committees established at the time of the strike. The strikers also had planned to present a report on the internal school projects maintained by the students themselves since the strike.

students Beaux Arts
Sheila Castel, a spokesman for the occupying students at Ecole des Beaux Arts explains their position at a recent press conference. A meeting will be held today to determine w h a t further action the students should take.
Total participation
Fast- flying rumours..
That was Monday. Since then fast-flying rumours of staff and student capitulation have been reported daily by press and radio. Yesterday one of the student leaders had to admit that a government stoppage of art m aterials to the school has now made their position almost untenable. What looked like the most valiant attem pt yet to defy an authoritarian government, which has consistently turned a deaf ear to student pleas for action on their behalf, has like other such movements ended in dejection. But defeat has not yet been declared.
The students, by virtue of this action on the part of the government (an action not unlike the final arbitrary move taken against the CEGEPs) are faced with two self-defeating alternatives: either to end occupation or pursue a meaningless strike. For by witholding materials from the students, the government has cleverly removed any constructive purpose that the strike might have had.
Prior to the government decision to withold supplies, and presumably up to the time that all materials have been depleted, the students have been, and will be, involved in collective work projects. These projects take in all aspects of school operation (cleanup, kitchen detail, etc.) and classroom coordination. This classroom coordination is what gave m eaning to the strike, by giving the student a chance to prove definitively that he can be a thinking, original and creative being.
Briefly, what the class coordination involved was the development of an aspect of the given art project that would allow the students to experiment with a com bining of all media within the spectrum of the visual arts. Their program also called for an em phasis on self and inter-group appraisal, thus allowing the student an outlet for his o- pinions and an opportunity to develop critical awareness. From this procedure was e- volved a sense of total student participation among those taking part in the occupation.
Quebec's action
The feeling of involvement and com m itm ent to their work which probably came unexpectedly as a result of this m o
vement, is what makes the action taken by Quebec seem all the more blood-thirsty and blind. In cutting the jugular vein of the students by stopping shipment of supplies, the administration of this provide have deepened the slit already inflicted in its own increasingly vulnerable throat.
One may be tempted to say of this situation that it is not meaningful or valid because it is not representative of the majority of students attending the school. But one must, more importantly, remember that it is most often a m inority that sees clearly the advantages as a non-threat to itself so that it will feel it can act safely.
Two years of discontent
Student unrest is not a new developm ent. at the Beaux Arts. Tw o years ago the students, fed up with poor facilities, teachers and materials, and seeing no attem pt on the part of the administration to implement changes, called a walk-out. They returned only after the provincial government had established a Royal Commission to look into the administration of the school and the demands of the students. The preliminary report was handed down suggesting certain changes within the structure of the school and then was forgotten. None of the proposed changes were ever effected.
Bourbeau resigns as U GEQ PresidentMontreal (CUP) — Paul
Bourbeau has resigned as president of L ’ Union Generate des Etudiants de Quebec after a disagreement with the Union’s Executive over the power of the presidency.
The Executive accused him of failing to carry out his jurisdictional duties. Bourbeau agreed, but in doing so explained he felt to carry out his duties as defined would be tantamount to accepting authoritarian control not in conformity with “ present student aspirations.”
Bourbeau attacked the structure of UGEQ in his resignation statement and called for a radical change in its make-up. “ The time has come for us to reject the individualistic concept of authority and to stop playing the consumer corporation’ s game which requires supermen like Kennedy and Trudeau.” Continuing, he said radical transformation has always been a viable process even though “ bourgeois history attempts to prove the opposite.”
He signed his statement: “ Paul Bourbeau, a member of the Executive who hap-
PaulBourbeaurejects ind ividualistic concept of authority.
pens to be president.” His major argument was that radical student action must be collective in nature not led by authoritarian figures.
The Executive issued its own statement, formally disassociating itself from Bourbeau’s position. Recognizing the UGEQ constitution has created an “ authoritarian leadership” in the presidency, the executive nevertheless felt that the direction of UGEQ has always been a collective effort. The statement attacked Bourbeau for not providing even a minimum of leadership necessary to run the organization.
An interim president has not as yet been selected.
High-rise a possibility for student residence
By next year over 500 Sir George students could be living in a high-rise apartment building as part of the university’ s housing project.
Ben W ygodny, chairman of the Student Union Building Committee, explained that a private com pany that has downtown land, has designed a building and approached the university with a housing proposal.
“ By this proposal, the university rents the land for forty-nine years and after that, the building becom es the university’s” , said Wygodny.
The planned high-rise a- partment would house 462 single students and 72 married couples.
The administration is in favour of the project, W ygodny explained. “ However, the university has no funds to rent
the building and has appealed to the Department of Education in Quebec which assists university housing.
“ Now it’s up to Quebec to decide if the Building qualifies under it’s specifications” said W ygodny, “ but we may have housing within One year.”
ICUA hearingsThe Joint Committee on University Affairs will hold its first open hearing for proposals on the restructurization of university government in Room H-635 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. today.

10NGFAGH)DISCOTHEQUES ?
‘Standard of living’ is an expression that encompasses not only econom ic realties but political, CULTURAL, and humanitarian realities as well.
To be technically correct, this expression can only be applied to the individual and not to a society. As in any society, there will be quite a substantial spread of values or realities. However, here we will speak in fairly general terms and use this expression in relation to society, the society of North Am erica.
The ‘Great Society’ and the ‘Affluent Society' are two very popular contemporary expressions. They are, at the same time, also very vague,
general and limited. The first expression would probably be opposed by as many as supported it while the second im plies affluence in every respect - an outlandish assumption.
Although econom ic affluence has largely been achieved (and if not in fact achieved, at least the opportunity of affluence has been achieved) for the white man in North Am erica, we are still living in a very primitive society.
For affluence implies not only material wealth, but al
so political, cultural and humanitarian wealth. And North America, ladies and gentlemen, is sadly lacking these three latter values.
Are Lyndon Johnson, Hubert Humphrey, Richard Nixon political wealth? Why are John Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, anc Martin Luther King dead? And does Jean Jacques Bertrand represent Quebec?
I think that a Cam bell’s Soup can is more representative of the North A- merican culture than the m ajority of com mon men per- cieve or would like to believe.
The Viet Nam War, subversive activities enveloping Latin American and Asian countries, the racial hatred between blackman and whiteman, Jew and gentile, Frenchman
and Englishman, Indian and Whiteman, and the multitude of unjust laws arbitrated upon us by law enforcement representatives of “ questionable intelligence and good judgem ent" are just some- of the many facets of our humanitarian society.
Our highly industrial-technological environment has brought us much material wealth, our econom ical “ standard of living" is the highest in the world. The only trouble is, there soon won’t be a world if we keep going this way.
We have seen what a society of well trained technologists, scientists, engineers and administrators have done. Now let us hope that some humanists will come to the fore and guide us to world peace and co-operation.

Dear Mr. Hershorn,I am writing in reply to your letter of Nov. 12th con
cerning our coverage of the October 30th demonstration by students and taxi drivers against your monopoly of the taxi franchise at Dorval Airport and a number of Montreal hotels.
Firstly, w e did not "see fit to give space to various statements provided to you by (the georgian) 'Le Movement de Liberation du Taxi", as you have charged. The facts, in this particular case, speak for themselves, and those are w hat w e published, not "accusations in slogan form".
Your apparent concern for a "sense of fairness" in dealing with the dispute is difficult to reconcile with the m anner in which you stated your position to the people of Montreal (see the Montreal Star, Friday, November 8th). You opened your 'appeal' with the fol- fowing statem ent; "On W ednesday, October 30th, a small group of taxi drivers calling themselves "Le Mouvement de Liberation du Taxi", with the help of gangs of trouble-makers, toughs and agitators whom they cose to call "the students" carried out a deliberate, premeditated crime against our com pany".
For someone who has such an obvious concern for the law , you have not hesitated in violating a very basic principle of that sam e law when you speak of a "deliberate, premeditated crime" (assum ing that a something legally questionable has taken place,which w e do not). As I understand it, in this " just" society, a man (or group of men) is innocent until proven quilty.
No, Mr. Hershorn, w e will not present your factually questionable assessment of the situation, which you choose to call a statement of Murray Hill's position.
One of our primary functions, as a student new spaper, is to offer students "the other side", of issues, the point of v iew that is generally not presenten in the pages of the commercial press.
Under the circumstances, w e feel that the taxi drivers had little alternative but to forcefully bring their dilemma to the attention of the public, and w e support their position and the m anner in which they close to demonstrate it.

Very interestingEditor, the georgian;
I am a student at Sir George and an avid reader o f the georgian. I have followed with great interest the various views expressed on the war in Vietnam and would like to contribute my own “ interpretation” of this gigantic fraud, being perpetrated on the people of the world.
The recent invasion and occupation of Czechoslovakia, underlined the similarity and cynical attitude both “ Super Powers” display when dealing with dissenting smaller States in their self-proclaimed spheres of political and military influence. The collusion between an “ Imperialist” Soviet Union and the equally “ Imperialist” USA must now be accepted as a fact.
M ao Tse Tung insists that a “ Secret Agreement” to rule the world between W ashington and Moscow exists; In the light of recent events, he has been proven right.
Therefore, you may accept my interpretation of the war, as being that of a Western, Non-Communists, M AOIST. Highly confusing it seems at first, but then truth is often stranger than fiction.
The bom bing halt, the Paris
peace negociations, and all future maneuvers are just that, tactics employed to confuse the public.
The events of the last few weeks reveal the following:
1) The Soviets, by brutally crushing Dubcek’s humanizing of communism, have put their “ Western Front” in military order.
2) Now Soviet military attention will be turned towards China, and a com bined m ilitary-political-diplom atic offensive is about to get under way. The ultimate goal being to replace M ao Tse Tung with a Moscow oriented “ Puppet” .
3) Americas job in Vietnam is now largely com pleted. The US has kept M ao away
from Siberia, during the most dangerous time for Moscow.
4) Anything America now !does is nothing but a “ De-escalation” of its own “ Escalation” . America in effect, e- ven if every last US soldier were to leave Vietnam would still leave China ringed by huge, modern air - bases, m odern deap sea ports, and .sattelites armed to the teeth with the latest military equipment.
I hope that this rather short exposee will be sufficent and do “ M A O ’S TH O U G H T’S” justice.

Land and funds neededfor students’ union
by Karen Sm ith
Sir George students will not get their Student Union Building tor quite awhile unless more land and funds become available.
Ben W ygodny, chairman of the SUB Committee, said an advisory board of students, faculty and administrators has been set up to manage the funds of the SUB.
In the spring of 1966, students voted in a referendum to give five dollars annually towards a SUB. This money is deducted at registration and over $70,000,00 has been accumulated to date.
The advisory board is going to invest the money in bonds, securities, or even land. Only a small amount is used for operating expenses - such as paying dues to the Student Union Association International.
Land is neededWygodny disagrees with
past com mittees’ method of bringing in consultants - “ It’s no use until we have land” , he said.
Currently the SCB is third in the university’s building priorities. First comes the Library and then a new Arts Building. “ They’re getting land for these two projects but as far as I know there’ s no land for the SUB yet.”
Aside from land, Wogod- ny’ s next problem is money. The five dollar fee isn’ t enough, he said, and Quebec is giving no financial aid.
Wogodny hopes students will give more time and effort to the problem and participate in a fund-raising campaign. He feels that if students don’t stress the need for the SUB, administrators won’t push the project..
“ I want to make the building the heart of the cultural and social life of the university,” said Wygodny.
He explained that the SUB will probably be a university center, a place for faculty, administrators, and anyone associated with university life, not just students. W ygodny therefore feels evening students and faculty should also donate funds.
Last year’s committee under Peter M axym ych drew up a list of facilities including ballroom, games room, T V lounges, bar and cafeteria.
Survey to be circulatedHowever, W ogodny feels
the SUB should feasibly fit Sir George’s needs and is planning to send out a survey questioning students on what facilities they want.
The SUB might also be amalgamated with other projects such as the Library or Arts Building, but most probably with the Physical Education Building, said W ygodny. He explained it would be cheaper financially and avoid duplication but “ the larger the building, the more land we need” .
As chariman, W ygodny hopes to do four things: establish continuity between com mittees year to year,continue the research of past years, increase financialsupport, and get more students interested in the Com mittee.
Once, the com pletion of SUB was predicted in six more years. W ygodny feels it will be “ a great many more years from now before we can buy downtown land and get government financialassistance” .

Jo<kD&k>...The Athletics Department is pleased to announce that
once again this year, Sir George students Will have free access to the facilities of the Y .M .C .A . ... students showing I.D. cards from 2:00 P.M . to 4:00 P.M . on M ondays Wednesdays and Fridays will be able to work out at the Y gym or pool ... Several ardent skiers have approached this office expressing great interest in starting a ski club. Though I don’ t know the difference between a ski pole and a slalom, I will be handling the initial arrangements for these students ... If you’re interested come into the Georgian office and write your name and phone number on the ski sheet and you will be contacted ... Speaking of skiing, Nancy Greene will be in town this weekend to help support the National Ski Team Fund-Raising Campaign... Those interested in meeting Nancy can catch her at the Arlington Ski and Sport Shop, 1235 St. Catherine St. W ., where she will be signing autographs and giving tips onskiing. ARE YOU A TOUGH?...
...If you are, then the Georgian wrestling team wants you ... Coaches Harry W olfson and Barry Nye have put in a call for potential champions to supplement the team which finished second to R .M .C. in the conference last year ... the squad practices on M ondays, W ednesdays and Fridays from 5:00 to 7:00 P.M. and Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:30 in the A .M . The Georgian hockey boys went down to defeat at the hands of the M cG ill Redmen M onday evening in a Coupe de Quebec series game ... the score was 6-4 but the play was extremely close (isn 't that what they always say?)... tonight’s scheduled O.S.L. encounter with Loyola has been postponed until January 11 since the Forum will be occupied by the amazing Harlem Globetrotters... the Globies are undoubtedly the most fantastic show in all of sports, and if you ’ve never seen ’em, it’s well worth your while... tix can still be had at the new forum... once we’re on the topic of the cage sport, a word of good luck to coach Fred Whitacre and his Georgian roundballers who open their season this weekend with games against Bishop’s and Sherbrooke in the two Eastern Townships com munities...ELK FINALLY A W INNER , , , , . .
... A hearty mazel tov is definitely in order for Sir George football Mentor Frank Elk. “ The Reindeer,” as he is known to his many fans was a frustrated loser with the Garnet and Gold all season, but now he has something to smile about as St. Thom as High School, where he is director of athletics, defeated West Hill High, my Alma Mater to win the city title of the High School senior football league... Atta boy, Franky...AND GUESS WHO LOST?
... The “ invincible” Loyola Football Warriors were finally “ vinced” ... the unbeaten champs in the Eastern sector of the Central Canada Intercollegiate Football Conference met their Waterloo in the Person of W aterloo Luthran University for the league title... the score was 40-0... could you imagine what Lutheran would do
^to the Georgians? (ou ch !)...

Georgianby Gord Pickle
The 1968-69 Varsity Basketball season starts on Friday as the Georgians travel to Lennoxville to do battle with the Bishop’s University Cagers. The squad has been practicing since September
cagers visit Bishops, Sherbrookeand has gradually been trimmed from twenty-five hopefuls to its present strength of seventeen.
The team is once again being coached by Fred Whita- cre, who is now in his fourth year in that position. Among the players having Varsity or Junior Varsity experience are Mike Dawson, Wayne Hawkins, Preston Jennings, W ilf Jackson, Ron W ard, and Ken Davies. The veterans are backed by a determined and hustling group of rookies, as evidenced by the Fact that Coach Whitacre’ s foreward line is made up of first year men.
Starting centre Joe Mar-
kuras broke his arm this week and he will be replaced by Dawe Wilding. The rest of the starting line consists of Chris Vidicek and Terry O ’Brien as the forewards, and Ron Ward and team captain W ilf Jackson at guard.
The team is not noted for its size: Markunas "was the tallest man on the squad, and only three other players top 6’2” . Coach W hitacre, while pleased with the overall effort of the team, is particularly happy with two aspects of the Georgians’ game, namely^ their rebounding strength and steady defence.
The most serious problem facing the Georgians is the
lack of an outside shooter with unlimited range - the guy who can score from just about any spot on the court. Last year this capacity was ably filled by Richie Campoli, who has decided to sit out this year in favor of studies.
This season’s prospects look quite promising for the team. The potential is there; whether it can be put to use or not remains to be seen. However, if team spirit and individual desire mean anything in this game, Sir George fans will not have much cause for disappointment with this year’ s team.
