VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

An appeal is being made today by the spon-sors of the Employment Service Plan for alarge number of university students to volun-teer their time and services. The organizationplans to make between forty and fifty thousandpersonal contacts with householders of thiscity in an endeavour to obtain signature spledging the expenditure of a sum of moneyon labour within a given till,

The organization would like one hundredand fifty students each to make twenty calls .This is really a worth-while opportunity fo rstudents of this university to show their publicspirit, and at the same time help the causeof Vancouver's unemployed .

The objection will 'certainly be raised thatexaminations are fast approaching and stu-dents have little spare time to exert in anyphilanthropic efforts . Nevertheless, the urgentneed remains for these volunteers. Many stu-dents should be able to arrange their time s oas to devote some little effort to this campaign .

The movement has the active support ofmany influential Vancouver bodies . Studentsshould be willing and anxious to co-operate .

"IOLANTHE"

Members of the Musical Society are to b econgratulated on the splendid showing the ycreated in their first night production of Gil-bert and Sullivan's "Iolanthe . "

The piece has been under rehearsal sincebefore Christmas, and certainly shows the re-sult of hearty work.

A little shakiness evidences in the firstnight will disappear for the last nights of theshow, and those who go are advised that a trulyprofessional rendition will be heard .

It seems from a few rumors that are circu-lating around, that there should be a little mor eco-operation between the director and the dra-matic director. It is fortunate indeed that theresults of this friction are not evident in th eperformance .

We feel sure however, that harmony woul dcreate a better show.

IF THE CAP FITS

It seems that the cap is fitting rather too wel lon this campus and that as a result the PanHellenic Association has passed a resolutio nasking Council to request the Ubyssey to cen-sor the column.

Let us assure our well wishers, that th eUbyssey is harboring no intentions of ceasing toinclude the item. Every item is personally cen-sored and any item that might create persona lbad-feeling is strictly blue-pencilled .

The column was started with the idea of pro-viding a little good clean fun, for all concerned .It seems that the Pan Hellenic's objection is o nthe ground that it puts undue emphasis on fra-ternities and sororities . The Ubyssey realizesthis, and a serious effort is made to designatepersons concerned so that there is a possibilityof their being recognized, without absolute cer-tainty. Names as everybody will have notice dare taboo.

If the general student body knew of thenumber of items that are turned in anony-mously, and checked up on, and then censored ,they might think otherwise than does Pan Hel-lenic ,

From some of the discussions provoked b ythe recent art exhibits it would appears as ifwe needed a course in art appreciation .

Apes and IvoryBy Arthur Mays*

Pussywillows and robins are, in this coun-try, rather poor indications of spring, bothbeing with us almost all the year 'round. Butwhen postmen laden to the plimsole withsporting•goods catalogues stagger up my ver-andah steps, I know beyond the shadow of itdoubt that spring has arrived . I like thosecatalogues, a fact that the publishers mustrealize, for they send them in vast numbers .

Quite shamelessly, I would rather poreover them than read Shakespeare. The pic-tures are highly-coloured, breathing of theoutdoors, and the furry, finny and featherycreatures that dwell therein . There are menin the pictures, too, dressed for the part inknee-high boots and swagger breeches guar-anteed against anything less than an act of th eAlmighty, with hats tastefully chosen to match .

And since the first of the catalogues reachedme yesterday, I make a liar out of the ground •hog, and proclaim that spring is with us again.

Spring or winter—which is the better? Cer •tainly winter has an ecstasy peculiar to itsel falone, a savage ecstasy of moonlight and abs.dows and lonely places under "frozen stars . "

WINTER'S MOONLast night the moon shone, and the frozen starsFell from a purple sky .

We went swing-swinging down the stone-bright roadOur step free-flung and high ;The willows crackled sharp in the whistling wind

,But we passed the willows by ;Men cried, far off, in the foolish lighted town ,Stop hell—an empty cry ,For why should we stop, when we'd tasted the tang of

the And the wind's embrace.

The mountains lay in the moonlight, strange and wil dFrom peak to shadowy baseAnd we ran throug the clear, cold darkness to the hill s.—A moat-mad, wind-swept race ;And the frozen stars came tumbling down the skyAnd danced before my face .

—May Moore .

Moon-magic in a different form:

AT MY WINDOWThe splendid moon o'erflows the night ,The earth is veiled in mystery.Tall, dusky trees loom vaguely dreadAgainst the pale and misty height.

My lifted face is bathed in light ;Before me on the window .111My still hands folded li eIn the moon-gleam shining white .

—Grace Aigkam.

"Getting back to the start, Peter," I askedmy little literary ape, "have you anything t osay for winter? "

"No!" snapped Peter. He was in a vile tem-per and, perched on my shoulder, tugged petu-lantly at my ears or reached over to snatchaway and tear sheets from my notebook. "Ihaven't anything to say for spring either," hesaid, with a particularly vicious tweak . "Springmeans mud and colds, and fur coming out inhandfuls . And my math professor doetin'tlove me, and it aren't fair to make me writeyour essays, and - - and Sin-Jin caught mestealing his lunch and said I was a bad ape,and my credit's shot at the caf. - - -."

This last thought was evidently too muc hfor him. He leaned back on my ears and be-gan to whimper pitifully . Not for long, though ;his friend the literary editor came in with abag of bananas and the orange-and-purpl esweater she had promised him . The last I sawof Peter, he was scampering out in his newjacket to throw snowballs at his math professor .

CONSOLATIONI watched a baby playing in the street ,A grimy guileless urchin, starry-eyed ,Quite lost in contemplation of the pebbles at his feet .I heard a strain of music in the darkA sad, sweet strain of quivering poignancy,Alive, and breathing beauty through the night.

The child knew not of sadness or of pain ,And yet a mist of tears was in his eyes ;The old musician knew the stings of lifeAnd yet his strain of music never dies .

—Esperance Blanchard .

THE MOUNTEBANKIn a lost place he raised his foolish cryUnto the emptiness that hemmed him round ;The wild things fled him ; under the savage skyThe mountains grinned, mocking that hollow soundAnd from their blank, bright walls, and from the cres tHis voice returned . He stood as one that fearsWhile, tossed out of the hush, the idle jestCame braying back, to clang about his ears.

The echo died . Frozen in slack surpriselie crouched where the deep heather drank the su nAnd through the heather, softly mating, On eDrew close, and stared on him with serene eyes —And at that smile the soul within him failedKnowing the Gorgon Wilderness unveiled.

'Life of RembrandtReviewed in Paper

At Literary Forum"The pane ofeamu Rembrandt's life

Makes a story of intensely humaninterest and pathos," declared Gwe nArmstrong in a paper on the famou spainter's fib to the Literary Foru mon February 1.

On leaving school at the age ofmteen, Rembrandt was placed undera local painter under whose tuitio nhe made rapid progress . After throeyeas, the usual period of apprentice -ship, the boy went to Amsterdamwhere he studied for six months un -der Pieter Lastman . Rembrandt,perceiving the worthlessness of Lest -man's teaching and the artificialityof his style, returned to Leyden de-termined to take nature as his mas-ter. It was during this period thatthe artist added that wonderful ser-ies of etchings in which he excels allothers in precision and delicacy ofline and shade, and in the expressio nof values .

"At this time Rembrandt was nat-urally proceeding along more or lessconventional lines both in the choiceof subject and in the method ofpainting, although his work from th ebeginning had an unmistakably in-dividual quality," quoted Miss Arm-strong from J . B. Manson. "But allthe time he was struggling for ex-pression, and gradually he began toforget the *tunas he had seen an dthe methods he had grown up amon gand to go direct to nature for sub-jects and to find in them the methodof expression .

But such was the young artists' sambition and accomplishment thathe soon found Leydon too small. In1831 he moved to Amsterdam and al -most instantly he became the leadingportrait painter of the day. In 1832Rembrandt met his future wife, Sas-kia van Cylenburch . The eight yearsof their married life produced someof his most beautiful work . Beforehe had been sombre and somewha thard . He now added to his palett ethat wonderful gold which make shis work so burningly memorable .

"The ten years from 1032 to 1642were Rembrandt's golden years . Hepainted like other Dutchmen, onlybetter, with a richer fusing of col -ours, a mellower touch, greater skillIn the presentation of form, a moredelightful illumination, and aboveall, a deeper insight into character . "

The "Night Watch," painted in 1642,was an infinitely greater picture thanthe "Anatomy Lesson" which in 1632had led to Rembrandt's fame an dsuccess. But the former picturemarked the beginning of his declinein worldly fortune and reputation ."The tide of fashion receded fromhim and his rough vigour and un-compromising sincerity in favour ofmore polished painters and the min-ute schools" and in 189, Rembrand tdied in great poverty.

rendering individual features so fine-ly tesponsIve to those deeper mood sof feeling he sought to mirror.

Holland has been styled the landof Rembrandt for it was not untilhis time that Holland could be sai dto possess a school of her own. Withhim and his followers began the re-alization of the ideal of Dutch Art—the representation of the peopleand their doings.

Of Jesus Christ

Rev. J. E. Harris, minljts' of theSouth Hill Baptist Church, addresse dthe regular open meeting of the V.C.U. in Ara 204 on the subject, "Th eCredentials of Christ," on Wednes-day, Mr. Harris opened by sayin gthat Christ came not so much topreach the gospel as to make a gos-pel to be preached . He divided th ecredentials of Christ, or the worksChrist has wrought in the world ,into 5 divisions :

(1) Christ's Teachings : non-Chris-tian teachings as e .g. that of Con-fucius contain gems of truth with agreat deal of rubbish, but not sowith the teachings of Jesus. Thereis a note of finality and authorit yabout them . In the 1900 years sincethe time of Christ there has not beenone new accredited ethical idea add-ed to those found In the Bible hedeclared . He also pointed out thatit was the Christian influence foundin these teachings that brought aboutthe abolition of slavery and man yother evil things.

(2) The remarkable way He hassurvived the opposition of His enem-ies and the inconsistencies of Hisfriends such es priestcrafts and fan-atacism ,

(3) The faith which is centered inHim .

(4) The men He has made and themen he has mastered. The noblestof men are to be found in the rank s

The Varsity Senior A basketeers handed the league lead-ing Sparlings their second beating of the season before 400cash customers at the VAC gym on Wednesday night . Thisgame was the fifth straight win for the Blue and Gold in theBurrard League,

,As the league standings now are, Sparlings have won four-

teen and lost five while Varsity have won thirteen and lost five.There is the possibility if V.B.C. wits the next game it will bein tie for the first plots,

The Boat Club program, an ambi-tious one this season, also includes atrip to Brentwood sometime after theaping examinations, Brentwood is -feted the Varsity four sent overlast year; consequently, the hom eoutfit is eager for revenge .

Of more immediate interest is aregatta to be staged on March 4 ,when Varsity oarsmen will compotein a variety of events against th eVancouver Rowing Club . In addi-tion, interfaculty races, and raceswith a view to filling one or twocontested seats in the shell slatedfor Washington will be held .

At an earlier hour how-ever, tackweight eights and seniorfours will kick foam from the Inlet .One of the highlights of the regattais a singles contest between Prattand deMille, the flash team whorowed doubles for V .R.C. in the lastOlympics . What kind of showin gthese experts will make when op -posed to each other remains an in-teresting question . Singles are alsoto take the water in other races, andcanoe races may add a touch of nov-elty to the proceedings. It is an-nounced that all club members, in-cluding those in the novice class,will compete.

Members of winning crews are tobe presented with complimentarytickets for a tea-dance held in theV.R .C . clubhouse at the close of theregatta, harmony to be furnished b yHarold King and his orchestra .

for some thus past in anticipation ofthe playoffs . Bill White is showingwell in his new position at Alva• 'eights, and Jack Steele, of Big Fou rfain*, Ir expected to do big things in ,the forthcoming meta, which iseshedtded for next desk. Dave Paughand his troop of thrrie-gUitrters isin groat shpge to the match. Johnsny Gubbe will be full beak for thestruggle, and has shown great prom*la In brdken•field running.

Pyle sots the pea, counters Varsity has taken the store-with the rtilt of his gang right afterImen for the proverbW ride, and thehim. Gordon Steed is also golhgwell, and is supposed to be the baneof opposing full-backs existences.

Don McDonald, playing at haltsback is now acting captain of theteam mince Roy Stobbi* resigned . Royis missed badly this season by theteem-mates as his spirit and sports-manship were a welcome factor inmatches . However the boys are rightbehind Don for the gam* on Satur-day, and will welcome every bit ofstudent support at the encounter,

effect on the morals of their teamcan not be ovir*stitnated . The re-alisation that Varsity is the betterteam will go a long way towardstheir defeat in the playoffs, an endtowards which the Blue and Golder sare travelling bat, to become SeniorCity champions!

Mar Delia.While we are still on the subjec t

of the melon game, mention is duethe Tervo Tribe for the excellentperformance they turned in by com-pleting their schedule with nine suc-cessive wins to their credit . This isan accomplishment worthy of thehighest praise, and now playoffsloom on the horizon, with eitherY.M.C .A. or Normal Grads the teamto beat . Great credit is due to oldRandy the Maestro, under whos esterling coaching the team advance dto their present position . May hecontinue to lead them on, and em-erge from the coming struggles un-scathed, with the championship o fthe Senior B division of the Vancou-ver and District League under hi sarm!

Wood, Arts '34 has come to the, foreto show the rest the way in matter sof basketball, track and soccer. LastTuesday their most serious rivals inthe hoop game went down 37-22, Arts'33. Bobby McDonald, Doug . Mc-Intyre, George Pringle, and Art Har-per are the boys to make the play sit seems . As all ardent Lunch Leagu efans have probably noticed, theyhave worked out a system that is apleasure to watch . Art Harper goesin the hole ; Pringle gets the tip-off ,mending it back to Bobby, whoknocks it back over his head toArthur . The whistle blows. If YourResporter has let out a dark secrethere, 'souse um.

Likewise in the track section o ftheir bag of tricks. If the voyagingconditions have improved sufficient-ly by next Wednesday, our forecastis that Sid Swift and his band ofJuniors will carry off first, in theArts '20 Relay, all mention of dar khorses to the contrary!

Vanity has not won MoKeohnie CupMoore since 1927, although sits ha scarne very close to it on serasal, os-caalmns. And this year the teens lookslike, the strongest since 19W ; a fens.idable pack and a speedy backfiel dcombine to amen the greatest ex-pectations.

Lucky win For Victori aAlthough Varsity want down to de-

feat in its first encounter, it was onl yby a three point margin that Victoriawere able to triumph . Expert opin-ion gave Varsity the edge of play inthat bame, And a further encourage-Ing point is the fact that the sameteam which licked Varsity e-4 de-feated Vancouver 21 .8 . By the law ofaverages then, (coupled with plent yof student support), the U. B. C.should win .

Trandng GrindBuck Yee, genial maestro of rugby

coaching In the University, has beenputting the men through stiff work-outs in the Gym., morning and after-noons. One or two excursions weremade to the Horse Show Building 'as.well ; In fact nothing was left undon eto combat the inclemency of theweather . In the matter of condition-ing, at any rate, the men will be al -most 100 per cent .

As in previous years, a rugby Matc hbetween Varsity and Vancouver, tra-ditional rivals, will produce lots ofaction, good rugby, and a close battle .This year will be no exception. Thepresence of many Varsity grads onthe Vancouver line-up 'should makethe match all the keener—Locke, ate .brook, Murray, McEdie, will *A beseen in the dark blue strip.

It is anticipated that most of th eplay will be on the part of the fore-warda, and in this department Varsit ycan match weight and speed withher alder and more experienced rivals .Not for years has such a powerfulpack represented the University; whichplaces the team in a favorable poei-tion.

Backfield FastA fast-breaking, play-making three -

quarter line, which features spee don the attack, and safety on the de-fense, is the boast of the McKechnieCup team this year . With lots of feed-ing from the scrum, and close com-bination within themselves, they con-stitute just about one of the best backdivisions in the province .

Tickets are on sale at all times now .and may be procured from any mem-ber of the team or Rugby Executive,and the reasonable charge should bea substantial inducement for a largestudent attendance. It is the old storyof support: without it, Varsity may ormay not win ; with it, she is unbeat-able .
