Board Sought for An Anti-Calendar

By DERYK THOMPSON

Uvic students not already up to their neck in academic and committee work will probably jump at the chance to work on what could be the most challenging and ambitious project undertaken this year . The project i s an Academic Guidebook or Anti-Calendar-an extensive, well-researched course and professor evaluation.

This publication, to be ready for September 1967, has been long awaited and is expected to be of immense value to the academic community a t Uvic.

“At this stage in our develop- ment, a good, fully sufficient course and professor evaluation is veqt very necessary,” said Stephen Bigsby, AMS President.

“However, the project will be invalid, if the result is not truly representative o f thoughtful student opinions. This student support is the most important part of the project.”

Questionaires will be given to students this term and on the basis of the information gained from them a committee will put together the guidebook. This statistical study. will permit students to commint’ on -their interpretation of their educa- tion and to candidly assess both teachers and courses. I t i s hoped that the questionaires will make students think carefully about education and reply in such a way that the guidebook will be a credit to the university.

A committee has been doing groundwork on this project during the first term. This in- volved studying similar publica- tions of other universities and canvassing both professor and students for opinions and ideas.

A meeting of all interested people will be held next Tues- day the 10th a t 12:30 in Cleari- hue 216. This meeting will choose an editorial staff and organize the setting up and dis- tribution‘ of questionaires. Stu- dents are strongly urged to attend.

This year’s Anti-Calendar

should concentrate on course evaluation and professors only where no separation can be made. However, information should be collected on all pro- fessors and a candid appraisal of each made available to them only.

Surveys have shown that most students are in favour of such a publication. Success, de- pends however, on total support, that is, it must be representa- tive to be valid, so please come forward in great numbers on Tuesday.

ERRATUM Dr. Roy Watson is the chair-

man of the three-man faculty association committee of inquiry and not Dr. Thomas R. Warbur- ton as we erroneously reported. We regret any inconvenience our error might have caused.

The scholarship is the most sought after in the world, with only one awarded bi-annually in British Columbia and only 11 awarded in ’ Canada.

The $2700 a year received from the scholarship finances a year’s study at England’s Ox- ford University.

The Rhodes’ selection com- mittee, consisting of p a s t Rhodes Scholars and the Lieut- enant Governor selected Ed- wards for his literary and scholastic achievements with emphasis on success in outdoor sports, moral qualities and leadership ability.

A suc- cessful athlete he held numerous high school records and set the Canadian age class record in the 440 sprint. He is still run- ning competitively in track.

Edwards applied for the scholarship last year at the sug- gestion of his parents and pro- fessors.

“The procedure is simple”, he said. “The applicant gets :I

2 THE MARTLET, JANUARY 6,1965

- ”A

Letter From Japan By RON HOLLAND

Dear Martlet Reader:

In this letter I have written a few notes on t!le subject of the English and Japanese languages in Japan.

yere in Tokyo one can get along fairly well by speaking nothing but English, even though situations of miscomprehension

frustration will likely arise. All the young people must study Endish nowadays, and it permeates most facets of everyday life in Japan. Trade is crucially important to the hundred million M a n s who live here, and English is today the major idiom of trade betwe-e-n mtion~. By far the largest number of neologisms in Japanese derive from it; such expressions as “announcer,

w earburettor, Christmas present, bye-bye, romance, grey, a date, t+XUiter, and original” have been assimilated, largely since the War and the Occupation. Many com’mercial outfits, especially the international ones, use English brand names; for example “Sony” and “National” electric companies, “Orient” watch company, and uOlympic” camera producers. Along with the Japanese words, many young children learn the equivalent English words of the following kind: “mama, “papa,” “by-bye,” “okay” and “thank you.” ‘It is also true now that almost all the brands of children’s alphabet cookies produ,ce English letters rather than the letters of the Japanese syllabaries. Every day one can listen to English lessonti on the radio, and mathematics lessons are almost intel- ligible to the English-speaking native, since they use the words uplw,” .“minus,” “equal(s),” and the Latin alphabet for algebra.

Of course German and f i n c h have some share in the neo- ‘logbms~aa well. I can give you two examples which are gems; a & l e n t % part-time job is called “arbeito,” from the Germ? word

6n;9 $ate h a y be called an “abeck,” a direct borrowing of the Frarsch word ‘meaning ‘%with,” “avec.” As in these two cases. it k.’&bn true that the meaning of the neologism will differ some- uht,.’from that of the original word.

* Now’ I shall. commit one or two generalizations about the laaqasge I’ve been studying since September. The Japanese lrrdguage has always been strong on self-disparagement and in paying ddference to the listener, especially if he is a guest or a peraon of higher social rank.

This is still t N e today, although less so among the young ’ people, who are not so bound by the expressions of formality, .nd the relatively excessive politeness. Some among the older m e r a t i o n will worry that the young are impolite, but others will tondude they a m more frank. The people of Japan still tend to equate abruptness and direchess with rudeness, whereas people in North America and Europe of@ prefer to get to the point with- out undue padding or circumlocation. When you speak Japanese as a Japanese would, you often’ soften and cushion the hard facts, or &ow deference to the listener by saying ‘‘I think X is the case but . . . , or “It is probably true, that X.” It is also said that the people here have a greater sense of compromise than many W a r n e r a , have, so that in conversation they use many expressions like “perhaps,” ”don’t you agree.” ’ “It is said that” and “I am not

but . . . *’ Knowing a few facts of this sort is useful in h m h g difference between cultures. I have concluded in

par;t few months that the elusive bird called “International U&r&anding‘‘ can be seen only with both eyes: the eye of rpniw-1 politeness and the eye of mature tolerance. Of course

further aided by basic knowledge of a people’s way of life, outlook and language, but without them the others come to nothing.

In my next letter I shall probably discuss the topic of books

D e a r G u y S t a n l e y : v

In the ini t ia l adulat ion of a deed you consider well done, you won’t. have much time, I’m sure, to bother with my kind of talk. Besides, it’s not sensational, and it’s just the bourgeois voice of an average student.

THE MARTLET, JANUARY 5, 1967

You asked me what I thought about printing the faculty re- port by the English Depart- ment. I was at first, so stunned that you actually had it, that my initial r e a c t i o n may have seemed nebulous. But I don’t think I left you with that im- pression. The more we talked, the more convinced we both seemed to b e c o m e of how damaging the whole thing could be if it were published. But you went ahead anyhow, and printed it.

I respect your right to make this decision; I recognize your sincerity in searching for your responsibility in this area. But at no point, do I think you have made the wise or legitimate decision.

In the name of “academic freedom” and “student rights” and , all the “in” jargon, you have meddled into affairs that am none of your business. The h u l b y of our Uhiversity, after s e r i o u s deliberation, voted solidly against the publication of this report. They voted, al- most unanimously-and rightly or ,+ongly, to preserve its a- cmicy.“ You, Guy, have violated th& f d o m of choice. YOU have snuck into their private affairs, snaffled up the Report behind their backs, and when they weren’t looking-and sure that they knew nothing about i t - blew i t wide open for the world to behold.

You said that the “students have a right to know what’s going on in the Department.” I have no great background in the concepts of freedom, but I question: if those who prepared and approved this report voted to keep it secret, (and this, I’ve

’ gathered, they did, not out of feu, but out of respect and lave for those involved), if this is so, do students without full knowledge of the background, and the ’ nuances, and personal implications of such a report have the right to demand access to this information?

Let me make this example. Because I am the daughter of Dr. ,O’Donnell, I have auto- matically a number of privil- eges. and a certain number of rights. Nevertheless, t h e s e rights and privileges are NOT unmatricted; if I were to ask my Dad what medication Mrs. Brown received in surgery this morning, and why, and if he were to slap me in the face, I deserved every bit of it - be- muse I have no right to that information. Professional ethics are i n v w l v e d , and doctor‘s daughter, or none, I may not trespass into this affair. My h u e is not with academic free- dom - I think, with time, you would iind I was quite commit- ted to the idea. My issue is

you, Guy - and your irres- ponsible tactics.

You said also, that there is unrest within the Department and that “something like this has to happen before anything is accomplished.” I’d say you were playing the Olympian god role, boy.

When we talked, possibilities other than publishing this Re- port now, arose. Most ideally, you could have withheld pub- lication entirely, and established some sort of student dialogue with the association. You re- fused.

You refused also to wait until after Christmas, when there might be some feedback on this issue. You choose, rather, to expose the whole ugly mess, then to climb into your Christ- mas fireplace, and give nobody a chance to say anything. This issue very propitiously, is the last before January.

(Your editor, Mr. Glover-by the way, allowed this Report to go to press on the seemingly

sole grounds that he had “an obligation to the Times and the Colonist”) Hmmm.

A couple of final questions, Guy: What do we mean by editorial freedom ? How ethical is it to print material that you KNOW is to be kept confident? Are we just trying to create another Berkeley and a good hot story? Finally, am I a bet- ter student - a more fulfilled personality, a more creative in- dividual, because I have tasted the dissentions disturbing our English Department ?

Well, Guy . . . these are the thoughts of one student, an average student . . . and a stu- dent whose opinion you won’t ask again, (fortunately I’m not too bothered because I don’t generally structure my opinions so I’ll be asked) who would like to claim no association with what you have done in these pages as a student reporter. You, in the name of freedom, have violated freedom.

College Contract Awarded To :Oliver

from 1,800 in 1962 to 3,400 at present, has created a need for expanded services.

Plans are Wig drafted for the development of at least six colleges over the next ten years.

VICTORIA, B.C. - C. J. Oliver Limited of Vancouver has been awarded a c o n t r a c t in the amount of $677,000 for the con- struction of two new residences at the University of Victoria.

The bid was the lowest of seven that were submitted.

Construction will begin im- mediately, in the north-east sec- tion of the Gordon Head campus where two residences for women now stand. The new units will add accommodation for about 168 men.

The contract calls for com- pletion early in August, 1967, to provide residence space by the start of the fall term.

The residence grouping will form the nucleus of the Uni- versity’s first college, with room for as many as 1,000 residential and non-residential students.

Tenders will be called early in the new year for the college’s third component - a “commons block” to contain dining facili- ties, offices, and study areas. A surge in student enrolment,

Ugly Anti Overcoming a four-year tradition of Students’ Council

indifference to the question of a student-produced anti- calendar, the long dormant publication may rise its ugly head on campus this spring. A group of determined stu- dents, dismissing threats of int imidation by the faculty and nervousness on the part of many students, will meet Tuesday hopefully to further plans for the publication of the critique of courses and professors.

The partially successful anti-calendar of four years ago was too little, too hastily attempted too late. I ts legacy of apprehension has not heartened students discouraged by the scope and complexity of the project.

But the advantages of a well written and responsibly edited course evaluation are undeniable. Obviously students

tent before they commit themselves to any given section. But the students alone would not be the only beneficiaries The Report of the Faculty Association’s Committee of lnqu,i* clearly states that “individual instructors- as well as the departments might benefit from student opinion properly secured”.

.The key words, o f course are ”properly secured.“ This will mean meticulous care on the part of the editorial boajd,, and it will probably necessitate extensive faculty ,co-operation. Neither the students nor the faculty should shrink .from either the task or the partnership. Divisive Senate rulings set aside, co-operative action on challenging projects such as this will encourage the mutual respect necessary to the learning environment.

Sleeping Beauty In a closed meeting December 10, the University SJnate

declined to reverse their unfortunate decision quashing the Faculty Council’s unanimous recommendation for inte- grated undergraduate and graduate student societies. Des- pite the fact that the decision has torpedoed long mnge university planning, there is a possibility that something can be salvaged from the wreckage. The Senate has kgis- lated two policies in such obvious conflict that perhaps ai last the university administration will join with many stu. dents in the realization that this university has no Ions range policy and that the main reason for this is a Senate that is l i tt le more than a bottleneck.

The Senate, a clandestine vestige of a pettier era, gathers monthly and in secret apparently t o squabble ovel its heavy agenda. Their unhappy record in student alffain

.* and athletics, their ignoration of persistent demands fol removal of the seven-eighths rule and their inept hamdling of the graduate students question point to l i t t le else Ever their famous decision-it made Time magazine-to seal students on Senate committees, was not really a dectision It was left to the committees to decide for themselves.

One can only assume tha t a t present the Senate i r incapable of enunciating a long range plan for the uuniver. sity - not buildings or curricula, but the spirit, atitude, and aspirations of the institution. One can only assume that the impetus is going to have t o come from elsewhere And as the students are barred from Senate meetings, ii must come from the administration.

When the never do today what you can put off ’til next mmth Senate had left it too long, the President o f the University authorized last fall’s changes in the athletic -- program by presidential fiat. It would appear that this i! the only way to achieve the reforms necessary to get thi: institution moving. Stumbling along at the present rate, w e wil l survive and create an adequqate school. But fhe Presi. dent has stated publicly many times that he has visions oi a great university in Victoria, and that our institution ha! the necessary potential. Unfortunately, there cqn be little doubt that there area number of people involved, particu. larly senior faculty members, who are more conqerned witk narrow gains in their own departments than with the build. ing of an outstanding multi-disciplined university. The students share these hopes, and they are now laoking t o Dr Taylor and his administrative colleagues tg, shake the Senate from its slumber.

There can be no doubt that this institutiom has reachec a crucial stage of development and that long range poliq must be clearly and unequivocably enunctated. No one knows what goes on in Senate because no one is allowed in, but everyone knows that it is not providing this policy. T h e administration can only gain respect if it accepts the challenge to lead.

“Con Prince Charming woke Sleeeina Beoutv?”

Bureaucracy of Protest By DON SELLAR (CUP Staff Writer)

OTTAWA-The job of con- verting campus apathy into social concern and social change has always been a formidable barrier to English Canada’s student lead- ers.

But in the last days of 1960, there was evidence of a fresh approach being taken by the Canadian Union of Students, a new weapon being developed. in the fight to shake complacency and channel the anxieties of con- cern into social action.

Bolstered by a surprising new bureaucracy, CUS is now en- gaged in a new communications experiment with the 150,000 stu- dents it claims to represent.

Bureaucracy is the tool and commhnication the goal of those who toil here on a full-time basis for the legions of social con- science.

The problem they face is ob- vious: How can they communi- cate with a vast mass of students steeDed in indifference and ignor-

old-fashioned job of work which implementation of social legisla- tion always involves. ,

CUS President Doug Ward and his staff of eight associate secretaries, four< secretaries and a press and mailing,room staff of three rolled up their collective sleeves and went to work.

They began with a massive office reorganization, in which piles of dusty files were uncere- moniously tossed into garbage bins at 45 Rideau Street.

They followed this up by enter- ing a new age of specialization, in which field secretaries equip- ped, with expertise in education matters, co-operative housing and university affairs travel to cam7 puses where their specialized knowledge needed.

Gone forever are the annual coast-to-coast Cook’s Tour made by former CUS presidents. To- day Doug Ward and CUS reach students by sending field workers on abbreviated trips, many of -

ante about their role in society? And how can they create action while still working on vital struc- tures reports which will deter- mine their future course in soci- etal involvment?

Their past is against them. In other years, other “new student movements” born at CUS con- gresses have met the brick wall which separates them from stu- dents. The old movements or orders failed when they turned out to be the same old weary dreams sparked by the same old feckless action exerted by the CUS headquarters in Ottawa.

They failed because there was no machinery to implement them.

This year, the message is roughly the same as it has been in other years. Fervent ideals of universal accessibility to post- secondary education and demo- cracy in the university commun- ity were the main planks in a new student movement.

But when its leaders left the delivery room in Halifax and re- turned to their campuses, they had a new weapon with whieh to implement the ideals they shared. They had a bureaucracy in Otta- wa, slowly putting itself in a position where it could tackle the

May I remind Mr. Guy Stanley that the University of Victoria

which are financed by students’ councils.

They are trying to establish a contact with students. They are trying to cast aside the isolation which has dogged the CUS secre- tariat for years.

There have been other signifi- cant changes in CUS. For ex- ample, the new communications secretariat presided over by former Dalhousie Gazette editor Terry Morley is now reaching 1,500 students with its monthly newsletter, CUS Across Canada.

This publication has replaced the old system of mailing CUS material to the CUS to the CUS chairman and council president on each campus. I t reaches any- one .who is interested in or con- nected with student government, including student newspaper edi- tors.

Another CUS publication, a pamphlet entitled ‘What’s CUS?’, is being mailed directly to every Canadian student belonging to #he national organization.

This is the first time that every CUS member will receive such a mailing, communications chief Morley points out.

The union is banking on one other major change in printing

will become a great university not by virtue of an improved administration, but by virtue of a heightened calibre of faculty.

The publication of the “Report of The Committee of Inquiry” was unnecessary. The Report was not addressed to the general public, but to tohose w h m it concerned: the faculty. Its pub- lication in the Martlet confirms the adolescence of Martlet edi-

policy to improve communica- tions with students: a shelf full of program outlines.

These outlines represent ori- ginal work by CUS associate secretaries - not the reprints which used to spout of CUS headquarters.

They emphasize ways and means of implementing CUS policy. “We’re trying t o make the publications more relevant to the needs of campuses.” explains Morley.

“People on the local campuses can read newspapers, we assume. Therefore, we’re not sending out newspaper reprints anymore.”

CUS employees also point with pride t o a new centralized office filing system and student gov- ernment rLmarch documentation centre which will be in operation by the end of March. 1967.

Ward has had to draw his staff together into an efficient ofice unit in order to function more effectively. Each week he presides over staff meetings, and promotes an ‘open-door’ policy for CUS secretarial and printing employ- ees with complaints to register.

These employees are now armed with new fringe benefits and a conditions of work con- tract. a far cry from the day when CUS hired Jehovah’s Wit- nesses for secretarial duties be- cause that deligious sect sets a maximum annual wage limit on its members.

Ward makes no bones about the fact he has had difficulty establishing formal office pro- cedures, but his efforts meet with frequent praise from those who work under him.

He sees his job as “the most frustrating time of my life SO

far”. The eight withdrawals this fall, coupled with the massive housecleaning job, have left Ward looking a lot paler than he did when he began work in July.

But this year there are indica- tions that iris new student move- ment won’t collapse from within.

“Doug has successfully main- tained the Congress orientation.” one associate secretary observed last week. But whether the mem- ber unions will be able. to do this remains to be seen.

THE MARTLET, JANUARY 6,1967 5

Letters (continued from page 4)

tors. Mr. Guy Stanley and Co. have in the past year cultivated a peculiar interest in ‘academic freedom’ and ‘democratic pro- cess’. I doubt the sincerity of this interest. And now that the matter will no longer produce sensational headlines, I doubt if this ‘interest’ will continue.

The paranoea which is appar- ently rampant in the lower ranks of the English Department, is regrettable. I believe the prob- lem has in fact been aggravated hy the adolescent editorship of the Martlet. If the English De- partment problem is to find a solution, it will be without the theatrics of Mr. Guy Stanley and co.

Yours truly,

David Summers. 2 A&S

Sir:

May I .congratulate you on your ability, to fill twenty-four pages with your own peculiar brand of journalism. It is indeed

a pleasure to be able to read. I have often thought of those less fortunate than myself, but when faced with such triumphs as were achieved in your last issue, I am at a loss for words.

Sir:

Guy Stanley’s article was head- ed “Implementation-Main Prob- lem”. I would suggest that the Martlet’s main problem is Guy Stanley.

Respectfully yours,

* Rich Culture

Sir:

In the article “Canada - A Nation Doomed to Disaster”, Mr. Glover seems to believe that one of the main drawbacks to Cana- dian unity i s the so-called egois- tic tendencies of the racial minor- ities to preserve their “petty national origins”. I too believe that Canada is divided by her

various ethnic groups, but a t the same time I feel very strongly that the writer’s insensitive ap- proach (condemnation) to these people’s interests, so typical, of ignorant Canadians, is the prime deterrent to the assimilation of these nationalities (if that, in- deed, is what Canada should de- sire). Is Mr. Glover not saying that these immigrants are second- class citizens, that their traditions and cultures are of no worth in this great “Promised Land” and thus should be forgotten?

Instead of trying to conglo- merate all the nationalities into one faceless mass (as the United States is doing with her “melting pot” policy), we should try to create a new and immensely rich culture formed by the contribu- tions of each national group. Can- ada has a tremendous opportunity to distinguish herself t o the world by projecting a distinctive iden- tity, which she so far failed to do. What better way for Canada to be a great “force for peace in L e world”, as Mr. Glover wants, than to set the example as a country composed of many na- tionalities striving together as Canadians towards a truly Cana- dian culture? ,

Four New Senate Members Four new members will join

the Senate of the University of Victdria as a result of recent elections.

Re-elected for a second term were Mr. Justice John G. Ruttan of the Supreme Court of British Columbia, and L. J. Wallace, deputy provincial secretary.

Victoria businessman Richard B. Wilson, a former mayor of the city, was previously elected as the University’s second Chan- cellor by acclamation. He suc- ceeds Dr. Joseph B. Clearihue, who retires this year after a 63- year association with the devel- opment of higher education in his native city.

Like the six Senate members, Mr. Wilson begins a three-year term of office on January 1, 1967. .By virtue of his new position, he

.‘also becomes a member of the ‘Senate, which is concerned with academic affairs and related mat- ters in University planning. He remains on the Board of Gov- ernors, to which he was appointed in 1963. The Board has responsi- bility for financial administration and the sqtting of policy.

Elected for the first time were Canon C. Hilary Butler, Dr. J. F. K. English, Dr. Charles Gregory, and Dr. Frederick H. Sanders, all of Victoria.

Canon C. Hilary Butler has served at Ohrist Church Cathe- dral in Victoria since 1961. Or-

dained in England in 1940 follow- ing his graduation from Cam- bridge University, he emigrated to Canada in 1958. Over the past five years he has given a number of lectures on religious subjects

7 in the University’s evening divi- sion.

Dr. J. F. K. English, a former deputy minister and superintend- ent of education for British Columbia, is now chairman of the Public Utilities Commission. A graduate of the University of British Columbia, he served from 1946 to 1953 on Victoria College Council.

Dr. Charles Gregory, until re- cently director of Victoria’s Mental Health Centre, graduated from the University of Liverpool, England, where he taught in the department of physiology. He was research associate in psy- chiatry at the University of Toronto from 1957 to 1962, when he came to Victoria. He is now in private practice.

Dr. Frederick H. Saundm, physicist and former scientific adviser to the Chief of the Naval Staff in Ottawa, is now chief superintendent of the Pacific Naval Laboratory a t Esquimalt. He is a graduate of the Uni- versity of British Columbia and obtained his doctorate from the University of California.

6 THE YABTLET, JANUABY 6.1967

By CAM ELLISON The worst part of writing the first column after a

holiday is that nothing has happened which has any remote connection with the subject of the column, and newspaper editors take a dim view of sudden changes in such minor areas as format, topic, or title. Hence the. following dis- Ser ta t iOXL

There were many gods in the land of Victrola, not unlike the gods of other lands, save that the great god Kimm had few devotees, and languished. Indeed, many gods were of little influence who were mighty in other places, all save the god Fles, mightier even than the god Skitletha. R e s was a mighty god, and had many followers whom he rewarded with much money and other possessions, which they stored in large barns in preparation for an uncertain and imminent future.

TO the land of Victrola came a new prophet to the god Kimm, called Renev the Rellum. Renev was a faithful prophet to the god, save that he oftentimes misinterpreted the wiRhes of the god, which the evil Samot was quick to reprove him for. However, the Good Witch Yerda was Renev's faithful devdtee and aid, and praised him to all and sundry, even to the devotees of Fles, to whom she gave some appreciation of Reneds work. For her, Renev could do no ,wrong, though he ofttimes did.

In time, however, even Renev's influence diminished, and he found it necessary to leave the land of Victrola, and to proceed to other lands where the worship of Kimm was m h e hgular and more fervent. Naturally, the followers of Kizum a t Victrola were much saddened by this, but they consented, ' and presented him with many gifts in token of their appreciation. His leaving was a great loas, but arrangements were made to find a new prophet, and the WOPMP of Kim remained at the same level of sincerity. * * * * *

The new prophet was sure to gain the devotion of Yadra, 8nd 80 .all were pleased. Surely the new prophet would lead the worship of Kim to new. heights. * * + * +

So much for the fairy tales. Now for the ads. I mentioned in a previons column that a new coffeeh0wJe-m establishment was opening in Victoria. The date fast ap- proacheth and it is time to make the h a 1 and big plug.

The Cats' Cradle will be a jazz coffeehouse without the dinginess of many coffeehonsee, a sort of jazz workshop' with the intimacy required of a good jazz place. As well, Cab' Cradle will offer a fairly elaborate menu, including four different kin& af coffee. And the seats are padded.

Itesporme seems to be really enthusiastic and several -pa have asked to play there. Eastern musicians seem to be prepared to admit that the West exists, and have com- mitted themselves to play here. Even the John Handy Quintet is enthused.

The opening night is this Sunday, January 8, and the thing gets underway at 8:30. The charge is $1.25 for students and $1.50 for the rest. The place is 1037 View. First night will feature the Twentieth Century Jazz Quintet, and the Foster-Vasey Trio, followed by an inmpromptu jam session. See you there.

Silent Film Classics To Be Shown

Throughout the second term. startingly rapid innovation of every Tuesday evening starting visual devices as a film vocabu- January 24. 1967, a series of and a t the same time striv- seven silent film classics will be presented on the University of Victoria campus open to students, faculty and the public. The objective of the program is to present a distinctive cross- section of the best American features of the silent era, in order to acquaint interested filmgoers with the terms and importance of the formative years of the motion pi- in- dustry. Ticketa can be pur- chased at the door by indi- vidual program at Mk or for the complete series at $260.

F'rom 1896 to 1930 a huge body of film work was produced throughout the world as the ' public demand for entertainment increased. However, for want of a practical, inexpensive sound system the producing corpora- tions were limited to expmdug their plots and messages only in v i s u a l terms, stimulating a

ing for a g r e a t e r reality through technical advances, re- fining the quality of cameras, lenses, and the film stocks used. Thus. perhaps, it is during these silent years that the film found ita identity as an art foim in purely visual expression, and in a way prepared itself for the eventual introduction of sound in conjunction with sight. In addition, it was during these same years that the industry gathered such public acceptance and support' that the develop- ment of the sound film was made financially realizable.

Contrary to popular opinion the silent film cannot be simply written off as an unsophisti- cated, dated form of film enter- tainment. One finds that not all embody mauglin plots and exaggerated acting. Rather the perceptive viewer mdy find that a lack of concern for dialonw

will be given and an official pre- sentation will be made to the Minister of Education.

Each type of educational in- stitution wil make submissions to the provincial government. The university brief is expected to deal mainly with the demands of the BCAS for Equalization Grants to help defray additional living costs for outsf-town students. In addition, the joint university submimion is expec- ted to request the establishment of an independent Grants Com- mission to calculate the finan- cial needs of public universities and to advocate public financial assistance to privately-financed Notre Dame University of Nel- son The draft of the brief is being prepared at UBC and will be circulated to &e four uni- versities for approval by indivi- dual student councils. Included .in the brief will be UVIC pro- posal~ stressing the progressive abolition of fees, particularly in the first year, and more em- pba& on provincial bursaries, rawr the exietig “money for marlia” peheme.

T6e nursing schools will be stressing the demands made by the student .nurses. during the pq ,@~cM eledtion campaign. N-ng students are beginning to o p p m the existing h i n i n g paid for by ,“indentured serf- dom” and are advocating the

removal of nureen training from the hospitals to the Department of Education. Nurses are pre- sepltely dissatisfied that they must spend up to 75% of their time in their third and final year doing routine ward duties that are made necessary by the lack of auxiliary personnel in the hospitals.

“Can you .imagine a post- secondary institution without facilities for student meetings, clubs, dances, council offices, where the nearest playing field is five miles away. and every male student is required to wear a shirt and tie or face suspen- sion ? That is the situation at BCIT.”

This was the way that Eric Schultz, student president a t The British Columbia Institute of Technology described the conditions afnicting students taking the two-year course of study at the provincial technical institute in Burnaby. Although students at BCIT are required to have at least a seeond-elass University Entrance standard to gain admission, the concept of student autonomy m o r e closely resembles a high g(Fhoo1 than a university for its 1200 students. , c

There are signs that *dents at the Institute are bginning to resent their treatment as de- humanized units of oeonomic m d technological outpdt.

A PLEA To a "wink: If humanity has

not entirely fled from your Brest, return, Oh! Return ere it is too late. to your heartbroken, distracted wife you have for- saken - ere the expression of those soft eyes that won you be. lost in the bewildered stare of insanity - ere they may gaze on you and not know you; write, tell her, oh, oh! Tell her where you are, that she may follow you - her own, her all - and die. See her once more.
