WURF May SponsorDrama Contest,Air Mc6oun trial s
Two innovations in Canadia n
campus broadcasting may be intro-duced by the Western Universit y
Radio Federation this spring .There is a possibility that a dram-
atic radio festival among t'e fou rWestern' universities and a broad -
cast of the historic McGoun Cup de -
bates will be made, as a result ofdiscussions at the three-day WURF
conference here .Plans for the dramatic contest do
not include inter-campus broadcastsRecordings of the best plays pro-duced by each university will be sen tto each of the competitors, Thus eachcampus would hear all the four play :
made .New chairman of WURF is Michae l
Thompson of University of Manitoba ,who succeeded Ernie Perrault o f
UBC .
N )1 N TIIIEMEAccording to Student Council of-
ficials the events of the day wil lfeature an Indian theme built ar-ound the presentation ceremony. Th e22-foot totem will later be given apermanent place of honor on the law nin front of Brock Hall ,
Arts student Scow, who intends t o
;turfy law at UBC "in enter to hel p
my people, " recounted the legend o f
lit tribe which surrounds the totem .In the days before the white ma n
came the legend says, Tsi-ka a mi ,Chief Magician of the Red Ceda rBark dance was tied to a boulder b yhis enemy, Kha-ne-ki-laq, an dthrown into the sea, But Konigwis .lord of the deep, released Tsi-ka-mi
and sent him back to the surface ,after giving him a totem pole .
This totem, so the legend goes .showed the great creatures cif th e
depths . There was Ma-akinuk, thepowerful man monster, holdin g
Waakes, the frog . Next came Kuuma ,the bullhead whale and Naanis, themonster grizzly bear of the sea , Sur -
mounting all these was the might yThunde rbird ,
GREAT CHIEF'S TOTEM.To this day, said Scow, his peopl e
use the totem when they dance an dsing of Tsi-ku-mi's accomplishments .
The pole being given to UBC stud-ents is an exact replica of the grea tchief's totem, he added .
UBC 's totem is now nearing com-
pletion in the Stanley Park Worksho pof Mr. and Mrs, Ted Neel, who aredonating the emblem to the, AMS .Mrs. Neel is a member of ChiefScow 's family .
Working in their studio a stone' sthrow from the Pauline Johnsto nmonument near Third Beach, theNeel's seek to preserve Indian Art .Hours of painstaking labor were in-volved in carving the UBC totem ,Hand-made adzes and other tool ssimilar to those used when the whit eman came, are used to cut the gro-tesque figures from the huge re dcedar log .

As 'Traitors

LPP Club Hears

Russian eagle has becomethe dove of peace according toLeslie Morris editor of the Com-
munist "Canadian Tribune."
Berlin blockade was precipitatedby the "capitalist betrayers oil Yaltawho desire to annihilate the peaceloving nations," he told a Tuesdaymeeting of the student LPP Club .
Immediate cause of the blockadewas the introduction in Berlin ofWestern Marks, he asserted.
"The chaos caused by this deliber-ate attempt to sabotage Berlin's ec-onomy by splitting it in two neces-sitated a blockade," Morris told themeeting .
"The letter and the spirit ofYaltahave been consistently violated laythe Western powers in their attemptsto prevent the democratization andde-Natzification of Berlin," he con-dnced .
said, "provided for aconstitution on, the
Western pattern not the Soviet butthe Western powers, unwilling totake the risk of having Germany'wrn Socialist have done everythingin their power to prevent such a con•stitution from being established bysplitting Germany in two sebmenteand refusing all co-operation withthe Soviet zone . "
"If the Western powers continu etheir insidious plot through th e
plan and the Trueman Doc -trine to make war on peace-lovingnations of the world capitalism issure to-be annihilated" he predicted.

this bit of

of the whole community, evidence of whichhas been given many times recently, is oneof the most refreshing aspects of UBC's post -war coming 'of age . Its debut from cloistere dinfancy to a position of leadership in BritishColumbia is a tribute to the "new guard "captains of UPC.
But while citizens past Blanca Street arewilling to accept UBC as part of "our town, "there are many at the university who stillmust come to recognize the role of the uni-versity in completing the cultural life of theprovince before British Columbia-can truth -fully speak of "our university ." '

It was with mixed emotions of wonderend fear that I set down yesterday behind , atypewriter to present for ,the first time m yvery own column .
You see, I'm a second string columnist. Formonths I have sat in a dark corner of th eeditorial room, a blanket thrown over anyshoulders, eager, full of magnificent ,i4e4s,Lonly to return to the dressing room daspanaentat the end of each day .
In a small way I shared in the glory of th efirst string stalwarts who day after dayfought their ideas to a triumphant conclusion .Manatees used ,to swim bef9re my eyes inan endless .procession,

And then yesterday it happened, The edi-tor had been pacing up and down before me ,chewing on the stub of his unlit cigar, stron g(the editor, not the cigar), silent, grimly de-termined . Things were going 'badly . :Severa lof the best men had been injured . Hangnail sand hangovers .THE BOTTOM ,U P
Suddenly, murmuring something about "th ebqttom of the barrel" the editor Wheeledabout and faced me squarely . Through halfclosed lips he spoke the awful words . . ."Tuum est! "
At last . My big chance had come . With ,charaCteristic eagerness I throw off my yan-ket, jammed my' snap-brimmed'fedora on m yhead, lit my bulldqg pipe And trotted int othe managing editor's office .
"Baines in for Tennant," I shouted withpride. I threw myself into the,huddle aroundthe city editor's chair, smiling cheerfully an dbreathing words of encouragement to m yteammates .
He glanced up with a look of loathing onhis tired face and murmured thoughtfully :

Senior Rugby Team sSquare Off Today
By DOUG MURRAY-ALLA N
Action will be the keynote today when the Varsity an d
UBC teams meet in their yearly rugger classic at the stadium .
Game is scheduled for 4 o'clock and fans are guaranteed
'a slam bang performance come rain or shine .Though UBC have been winless in *
their first two starts they are ex-
pected to provide adequate opposition
to the highly rated Varsity squad.
BIG IMPROVEMENT
Their improvement was demon-strated by their score last Saturday .
Although they took a 12-3 beating, i t
was a far cry from the 34-8 massacre
of the preceeding week .
The team has been reshaped an d
several of last years stalwarts hav e
returned, Hank Sweatman amon g
them ,The three line of the junior tea m
will feature McKenzie and Powell a s
wings, Hind-Smith and Kennedy, in -
sides, D'Easum, scrum half and Whel-
ler fullback. Scrum : McDonald, Sha wand Boulter, front row, Sweatma n
and Wallace, second row, and Dixon ,Goodwin and Shaw in the third row
slots,STRONG CLUB
Varsity will field their usual pow-erful team, with Jock Ferry returnin gto his customary place in the scrum ,
after a leg injury from last week .
Coach Al Laithwaite was pessimis-tic in his outlook for the junior squad
this year. He stated that there were
far too many students eligible for
rugby but not turning out. "There i s
no reason why Varsity and UBC
should not be rated as teams of eq-
ual strength, " he stated . ,ALL OF THE TALENT
The Vanity crew which has bee n
successful in both starts this year ,
has been given all of the talent, leav-
ing UBC to scavange what it mayamong the mass of green talent.
This system has not entirely bee n
successful, and although a fair sec-
ond team has been thrown together ,
most of the players hardly know on e
another and are at a great disad-
A MULTITUDE of track enthusiasts like the one pictured above will line up again this year
for the annual Intramural cross-country race . The cindermen will cover a grueling 2 .6 miles
during the course of the run w'rtich will he staged at noon hour two weeks from today .
Frank Frec1 ricksojn, UBC's hockey mentor, is happy toda y
and the reason for his elation is found in the multitude o f
promising player material that he has on hand for the comin g
season.The truth of the matter is that thej
tcr than last' year and Terry Nelfordnewcomers to the campus are stealing Lloyd Torfasson, and Bob Saunders
.vantage .Laithwaite is of the opinion tha t
Varsity will undoubtedly win. How-
ever he says he is dreaming of th e
day when he can get together a UB C
squad that will rival that of the
Varsity.
Another team will wear blue
and gold colors in downtownsoccer circles if present plansfor a campus intermediate en -try succeed .
Alf Blanshill is managing the new
club, and the coaching duties will b ehandled by Ivan Carr, former coas t
Leaguer and Varsity star, who is a t
present aiding Dr . Davies in coach-
ing the senior eleven .A meeting of all present and pros-
pective players has been called fo r
'Thursday in the south end of the
stadium . No one who is interested in
soccer should Tail to attend .
will get together once again o nOctober 28 for the annual Big Bloc k
Homecoming banquet .Included among the events will b e
introductions of old and new 'Bir dFootball stars, along with highlight sfrom various campus sports . Footbal lfilms also go with the show with th epresentation of the Honor Awat'tlto Chancellor Eric W. Hamber ,

planned for the ladies--50 and 100freestyle, 50 yard backstroke an d
breaststroke laces.There will also be a demonstratio n
by the UBC Ornamental Swimmin g

teams from other swimming clubs.Among the outstanding performer s
in the male events will be Jacic Clue -
don, Nick Stobbart, Fred Oxonbury ,Andy Anderson, Bob Stangroom, Bo bThistle and George Knight .
