'.lemhers of the thrwv senior year' shave very vivid recollections of th ecampaign waged last year to rais emoney for the Point Grey playingfields . The drive was a great suc-cess, thanks to the loyal co-operationof the entire student body, and wel lover $8,000 was raised, To get thi ssum much self-sacrifice was practicedby the students, many of whom wil lnever benefit front its use .

At the present time two fine playin gfields have been constructed with th emoney, but. the fund Is now exhausted ,There are still many necessities thathave to be purchased ; the groundshave to he fenced, a grandstand erect-ed, and track equipment procured fo rthe W.

To meet all these extra ex-penses, a further campaign is bein ginaugur ated, and the student body I sagain asked to co-operate . it hasbeen suggested that the caution mon-ey of the students be devoted to thi sworthy cause, and should the flanges -lion be put to a vote, It is certa!n tha tthe self-sacrifice involved will not bin .der their generosity .

BIGGEST GAME OF TIE YEARVARSITY vs. VANCOUVER

5000 TO SEESPRING PLAYWill "You and 1" Be

Thom ?This year is the tenth anniversary

of the Players' Club's foundation . Themembers are working hard to mak eit the moat successful year on reoti'd .

The play this year is being present•ed on three nights instead of the cus-tomary two. It is rumoured that thefreshmen intend holding a theatreparty, taking the balcony for onenight . We hear also that other classesare thinking of following their ex-ample . Several of the high schoolshave promised to take blocks of seatson the different nights .

The Players' Club hope that the eta •dents will back them up in their effortto make this year a good one, by ad-vertlaing the play among their friends .If each student in the University sol dtwo tickets to non-University peop leit would fill the theatre for one night .

In the past the earnings of the clu bhave been devoted partly to charit yand hospitals, but to a greater extentto University undertakings. The pro-ceeds thus year are to be devoted tothe auditorium at Point Grey. By as.slating the play we are helping our-selves to swell our none too largebuilding fund .

In past years students with thei rearlier opportunities for purchasingtickets have acquired a largo propor-tion of the best seats in the house, sothat the general public has had tocontent itself with the cheaper seats .This was found to deter many fromcoming. The management of th ePlay e rs' Club hopes that students wil lappreciate this fact. The acoustic sare equally good in all parts of th ehouse and a good view may be ob-tained even from the back row of th e"gods ." By bearing this in mind andacting accordingly, students will b edoing an act of courtesy and helpingthe seat sales .

Student ticket sales will begin onTuesday, February 24th. Exchangetickets will be sold. These ticketsmust be exchanged for regular seattickets at the Orpheum box office onor after March 2nd. The seats wil lbe assigned in the order that theseexchange tickets are received at thetheatre. If a self-addressed envelop eis enclosed the seat tickets will bemailed on March 9th ; if not, they maybe procured at the box office on thatdate .

The prices are as follows : Boxesand loges, $1 .60; orchestra and bal-cony, $1 .00 ; second balcony, 75c. ; re-served gallery (first five rows), 50o . ;rush seats, 25c .

The losers' outside left score dtheir lone tally when he beat Suther-land just before the interval with awell-placed shot .

Central Park put up a stubborn re-sistance and if anything had the edg eon the play In the second canto . Onlythe stellar defence tactics of Gibbard ,Robertson anti Shields saved the dayfor the students .

The winners were at a disadvantagein that they had a makeshift forwar dline composed mostly of defence men ."Flea" Sutherland had a narrow es •cape about ten minutes from tim ewhen he appeared to carry the bal lover the line, but referee Webster waslenient . and gave the collegians thebenefit of the doubt .

STUDENT ELECTION S

The first of the student election sthis year will be Monday, March 9th ,two weeks from the coming Monday ,when the president of the Alma Mate rSociety will be chosen . All the elec-tions this year are to be one wee kearlier than in previous years, thusgiving the newly glected "divinities "a chance to acquaint themselves wit hthe duties of their positions . More-over, competition for offices promisesto be exceptionally keen as there are ,by the amendment to the constitution ,only nine offices to be competed for ,in place of the former twelve.

In past years the proportion of atu•dents voting in the elections has beenIn most cases from sixty to sevent yper cent. of those qualified . This pro -portion is too low, and shows a la-mentable indifference on the part o fstudents to their own best interests .There is no reason why every studen tshould not cast his vote in the si xelections In whcih he Is qualified t ovote, and in very Important election elike that of the president of the Aint . tMaier Society there should be a nine-ty per cent, ballot .

Let us give the elections this springall the careful consideration they de -serve . Everyone should make it apoint to attend campaign meetings ,and find the mreits of the variouscandidates before making his deci-sions. Let us choose the best pos-sible council for next year by takinga whole-hearted Interest in this im-portant phase of student life .

It was shortly after dawn and th egheerless sun glared from behind amass of clouds when a fatal bell clang .ed loudly at the hour of twelve anda solemn procession of Freshmen ,mumbling incantations and tales o fwoe, emerged from a cluster of fame dwooden buildings and wended Its wayalong Eleventh Avenue to a cold, greybuilding of Immense proportions . Withchoking sobs the wretched student sbade farewell to friends, wiped gath-ering tears from their pathetic eyes ,glanced lovingly at the beautifu lworld and plunged through the grea tgates of doom into a dungeo n(labelled King Edward Auditorium) .There they came upon a few more o ftheir number, and la the gloomy ligh ttheir faces seemed deathly pale.

EDITOR SHOULD NOT SIT ONCOUNCIL IS CLAIM

Editor of the Ubyssey :Dear Sir :

There seems to be a great amoun tof Intolerance shown by most of u sat U . B . C. toward those who have dif-ferent ideas from our own, i am go.iug to criticise the way the Ubyase yis controlled, and I am hoping thatthe training that I have done for therelay will stand me in good stead I ncase the concensus of opinion Is tha tI should be lynched !

My criticism is not of the staff o rwhat they write, (I used to criticisethem, particularly the sports editor--hut not now), but the fact that thepaper is government owned as It' sfunds are granted by the Council an dpolicy indirectly dictated by the mthrough the Editor in Chief wiho is amember of that august body . Whenthe present editor went down sout hto a council of editors of U . S. col •leges, he found that he was the onl yone who sat on a student council .

If my information Is correct It cost seach student $2.50 a year, or abou tten cents a week for the Ubysaey, Th eSaskatchewan "Sheaf" anti the Alberta"Geteway" are sold at a slight profi tfor ten cents a week and their enroll .ment Is no larger than own, Wh ycan't we sell the Ubyssey for ten cent sa week, too? My , arguments In favorof this policy are, briefly :

(1) The paper would be left to It sown resources and would be stlm e-lated toward greater efficiency an deconomy than now, If that were pee .elble,

(2) The paper would have a fre ehand in giving constructive ('l'itlelst nof the policy of the student 's counci lehieh, it rnmplu'ah)e to other guvern-rnenle, le not tthot'e, and benefits by ,such criticis m

(^) The students' coitnetI t(oul,l h, 'further reduced and hence more sill •rivet ,

(1) There would h,' no member o nthe council who IM lint voted In b ythe student body as Is now the eas ewhen the Editor-In-Chief Is appointe dby the Council on the recommendatio nof the then eneumbent of that posi-tion .

IN DEFENSE OF THE WOME NDent' Sir :

A rennin than who ;dories In hI Mhole power has hove Wetted to hefacetious (oncernlng the electioneer .Ina spirit of our women . This letterWitH vet's unfair to the women of th etlhl ► e l' yearM, whtl do fottlllle the twirl .oneness of the matter . 'there may h esome tr11111 In them , neensallnns antimplied to the freshe11eM, but it is n odoubt flue It) lack of knowledge. Fortheir benefit then the following Infer .motion may he useful :

The chll'f position on the council

Is that of prnsldent, who must be a nundergraduate of the senior year ofanY faculty, and who Is chosen forhis outstanding personality ,

The treasurer must be an undergraduate of the junior or senior yea rof any faculty, who has previouslyshown ability In similar work ,

The president of the Literary andScientific Departmerit. Is elected fromthe junior or senior year of any fac •ulty ,

The secretary is a member of th ejunior or senior year and Is frequent-ly a woman,

The president of the Womens Un-dergraduate Society la a member ofthe senior year, and Is elected by th ewomen only .

The president of Wohnen's Athletics"1e also chosen by the women only ,and in a member of the third or fourt hyear,

In the el .M,lon of two other coun-allots the women take no part, name •ly, the president of the Men's Under-graduate Society and the president o fthe Men's Athletics . The editor•ln-chief Is elected by the Student's Coun -

May we urge the women to con -alder carefully the ability and per..sonality of candidates for the aboveoilltles before rushing off to vote ,

Yours sincerel yAI,FREIIA BERKELEY ,LENORA iRWIN .

CONTEMPTIBLE IDear Sir :

Lunt, Friday at "High J1nkfe l a rath-er contemptible Incident occurred .Two Arta men(?), not content wit htheir own party, arrayed themselve sIn fancy dress and Invaded the wo-men's domain, There can only b eone opinion regarding this conduct .It shows an utter lack of sportsman -ship and college spirit .

Yours sincerely,W.U.S.

OTHERWISEDear Mr. Editor :

II Is a regrettable truth that even i nan Institution that is supposed to de-velop broad-mindedness, sophisticationanti a Iru ► ' sense of sportsmanshi pthat there should be some few of th ereeds who are ready to put an evi lIntention to any prank or indeed any -thing onl of the ordinary that occur sIn the 1'nlversity . I refer parlieulau' -ly to the altitude adopted by these11(41114'II LL

1 e rou :Ii,' of Mee had th eI''tu,'t•IlV io invade their domain, . Ithink that the men showed a marvel-lous anulunt of nerve, and a good dea lof skill and resource in their some -what successful atten ► pt to elude th ekeen eyes of the fair ladies . Many o fus wish we had their opportunity andperhaps these same woolen were jeal-ous of the unnatural beauty of themen. So far from having any evi lmotives they art' far too reticen tabout telling the rest of us what hap-pened and I fear High Jlnks must b eeven worse than it. is reputed to be .The joke was conceived in a spirit ofgood-natured bantering on a night .when everyone was supposed to enjoyihemse'lvt's heartily, and I can thin kof no reason why any of the wome nshould see any harm In It . But. ofcourse, I wasn't there .

Reginald and / Ramble ThroughLiba'a ,

Reginald and I walked out to ournew buildings at the Point last Sun.day. It was one of those days wit ha sky like a robin's egg—"cerulean, "Reginald called it—and, as he was sothoughtful all the time and walke dslow for my sake, and said such won .derfully clever things about every -thing, the way didn't seem long at all ,

It gave me such a thrill when wefirst came In sight cf the building .Just to think that next year we'll bestudying in that gorgeous, grey-ston eplace, with its dignified, ass' tc line s—at least I will, though poor Reginal dIs going to write his exams this yea rand it is possible that he will gradu-ate . Perhaps the was thinking of tha tat the time, for he got Into one ofhis cynical moods — "iconoclastic, "Reginald calls it—and he meanl ydrew my attention to the library' sbare sides where additions will bebuilt later, and he said the back o fthe Science building looked like achild's drawing or a modern factory ,with the smoke stack left out . Butafter we had walked around to th efront, Reginald returned to his ow nlovable self and paid worthy tribut eto the wonderful stonework and rave dabout the artlsticaliy-leaded window slending a substantial simplicity, trul yVictorian, or Elizabethan, or some -thing, in effect and yet blending wit h

the unobtrusive grandeur of the en-semble .

And the library! Why the architec-ture has the very spirit—so Reginaldsaid—that Longfellow bo'liod forth i n"The Gleams," at least I think he sak iLongfellow--one of those great Fng-Anyway .

We got another 111 1. 111 when we foun dthet the temporary buildings aren' ta h i t ''tempol'atryish " at all .

Next year's freshmen will hat eto use sharper pocket knives . Regin-ald was showing me a doorknob withthe U. B.

Miss itolli'ri tt''leotiuvl the girls t ohigh .lades and Miss McInnes pre-sented the prizes. Miss Dorothy Mc -Kay as a mid Victorian lady receive dthe fi r st prize for the best woman ' scostume, and Miss Ulan* , noway, asan eighteenth-century gentleman, thefirst prize for the best gentleman' scostume. The prizes for the mos toriginal costumes went to Miss AliceWeaver ae an "overgrown parsnip, "and to Miss Jean Tolnile as a "maturecarrot . "

The skits were cleverly done andatftordect much amusement . There wasa "kitchen orchestra," with its quee rassortment of Instruments and noises ,under the able conductorship or Mis sDorothy Peck, Then Miss Hele nCreelman and company gave a breez ylittle song and chorus called "Palmteach ."

The next attraction was a skilfu lburlesque on a Grecian dance, Thi swas followed by a pretty and ot'iginat lInterpretation of the Spanish tango ,by Miss Joan Meredith and Mis sGladys Harvey .

FRESHMEN WIN

CHAMPIONSHIP

Victoria College are Beaten inReturn Gam e

Victoria College succumbed to th eFrosh to the tune of one unconverte dtry to nothing, in a return match pla yed last Saturday morning .

The players were greatly handicap -ped in being forced to play on th ehard King Edward field which wa scoated with a thin layer of greasymud, and good rugby was practicall yimpossible under the conditions . How -ever, a fairly close game resulted ,though the Freshman line was neve rcite in danger, while the Victoria lin ewas only saved on several occasion sby the inability of the Fresh back :.to handle the slippery ball .

The Freshmen forward line was no tup to its usual standard, partly du eto I1untdal's absence through injuries ,while Ken Eckert was missed on th ethree-quarter line . Harold Hall wh oplayed his first game at forward thi syear gave a good account of himself ,and Red Davidson, who scored theonly touch was prominent in hi ssmothering of the Victoria three -quarter runs .

The Freshman line-up was as fol-lows ;

McInnes, Eaton, Curry, Ballentyne ,Shields, Teed ; Bull, Taylor ; Forres -ter, Chamberlain, Adams, Bridgman ,McMillan, Hall, Davidson .
