x’Xlubs Misusi-ng Student Funds? - Bigsby .’ - “There’s too damn must wastage of club funds,”

said an irate Jim Bigsby, and warned Club Director Cur- rie to “keep your eyes peeled f o r other illicit use of funds.”

He pointed out that this was not a case of just one club ‘misusing A.M@ funds.

“This is something that’s been practised by’ some clubs for a long time, abut it’s hard to catch them right in the act”

“Students have a right to know what’s hep&ning,to their money,” claimed Mr. Bigsby. “Thb money could be better spent on bringing in speakers for the benefit of the whole student body.’’

MT. Currie explained later that there was no inten- tion on the part of either club to “pull the wdol over Council’s eyes”. He explained Monday night that. the Geography Club had intendecf to study glacier formattons on Mount Baker.

“If anyone ,&anted to go skiing afterwards, he could do so, and in my own opinion it’s perfectly all right,” Mr. Currie said in an interview.

“The AMS would be paying 8.00 per student, each student paying $8.50 out of his own pocket. I don’t feel this is unreasonable.” .

In the end Council re-allocated the Geography Club’s $50 to the Population Explosion Seminar since they have nothing better to do with their money”.

“One dollar per? Were they really sending 80 people or is someone trying to back out of an embarrassing situation?” commented Bigsby.

At a recent meeting of the National Conference of Can- adian Universities and Colreges. in Ottawa, the question of Yciar- Round Operation of universities was discussed.

Editorial . , . ” . .I . .- .. . PUBS MENACED ‘ Coktitutional Amendments come up for referendum Feb- ruary 6, the day of the AMS presidential elections.

Whether or not constitution may be legally amended by referendum under B.C.’s Society Act is still not certain, however. At present Students’ Council is consulting their lawyer, Mr, Shne to find out if it’s possible.

Thus it is still a bit early to give a proper critique of the amendments proposed. Nevertheless, there is one

~ amendment which if passed spells THREAT to the freedom of University publications.

The amendment referred to is the revised definition of th’e duties of the Student Council president. (By-law 2/3 b/v) .

Under the present constitution the president’s public relations duties are delineated so that there is no possibility of misinterpretation. The president is only, enti t led to act as public relations officer of the Council, and to supervise Clubs’ and Athletics’ press releases.

.Anyone who remembers the Centurion Affair or Rolli Cacchioni’s temporary resignation over constitutional inter- preFt ion- last year will realize the significance of those limiting clauses. - Yet the propoaed amendments would scrap those limit- ing clauses - would widen the president’s public relations powers so that confiscation of campus pubs, or censorship of pubs could be carried out, all in the name of “preserving the AMS image.” It almost happened with the limiting clauses in. It would be almost impossible to prevent with the limiting clauses out. Therefore, if the constitution is found to be amendable by referendum, we recommend this proposed amendment be defeated.

PLEASE BLEED Thursday and Friday, February 4 and 6 we Uvic stu-

dents..are called upon to bleed to keep the blood banks UP to standard. Mr. A. T. Lashmar, supervisor of Victoria’s Blood Donor Panel told The Martlet that February .is an especially critical month, and that a large turnout i s es- sential.

The Blood Donor Clinic will be in non-stop operation in . t he SUB lounge from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m; Refreshments will be served to donors, absolutely free.

Anyone can give if they are in average health between the ages of 18 and 66. A simple test given by a Red Cross technician determines whether or not you can spare the blood.

The whole process is painless and takes only 30 minutes. The.blood we give is used to control bleeding, combat shock, save babies born with heart or blood defects, to assist acci- dent or emergency victims, and many other life saving tasks. A more worthwhile 30 minutes is hard to imagine.

So c’mon out and bleed along with The Martlet. Oh yes, we’ll be there too. Especially al1,us editors . . . Eeep !

In reply to Mr. Jackson’s points of argument:

A ”Lord” Left Out Dear Sir:

I think it is a disgrace that more tickets for a movie should be sold than the maximum cap- acity of the theatre in which it is held. I am referring to the showing of “Lord of the Flies” a t which there were many who had tickets but were not able to enter the premises because of a full house. It is commendable to organize a fund for the ex-

chan e of studenta but it should not %e done in a haphazard manner.

He compared, perhaps unjustly I thought, the listless behaviour of a t least a sizeable Tninority -:. of students of this university to the attitude of students at Cam- bridge, of which he is a gradu- ate, and a t the universities throughout Europe and Africa, which he has toured and studied. I do not intend to moralize, nor do I intend to i m p r e s s my morals on o t h e r s , but it is rather embarassing when some of the students of one’s own institution do not r a t e any

AMS Treasurer Ken Blackwell feels that today’s children are being deluded about the “enormous impact” that the modern atomic weapons have. “They are ignorant about the real dangers of these colossal weapons” he states, and feels that young people should, pehaps, be made more aware of the potential horrors in germ war- fare, the demolition of whole cities and global holocaust.

Dennis Oliver and the SCM on campus sponsored a leaflet hand-out during the Christmas holiduys con- taining a poem written by Mr. Oliver condemning war toys. A (brief excerpt follows:
