LAWYERS '

Editor, The Daily Ubyssey : Sil- -

I feel it is my duly to come to th e

defence of Dr . Barnet Savery whos e

momentous remarks on the Gordo n

Martin case were ridiculed by a

columnist who apparently had n o

cn(Icrstanding of its import and who

undoubtedly was entirely unfamil-

ioI with the "Rules of the La w

Society of British Columbia . "

A person (lors not need a Ph .D .

de,.;rce no t. does he have to engage

in demagoguery to realize in th e

goad Dr. Savo y ' s solemn statement

--"they (the B'cnchers) could hav e

barred him Marlin) for the colo r

of his eyes, or the color of his hai rimplications which someho w

escaped your undiscerning autho r

of "The Children ' s Hour " .

I do not know the complete de-tails of the Gordon Martin case .However, I do know that up til lnow there has been no Chinese ,nn Japanese, no East Indian (Hindu ,Moslem, Sikh,) or North America nIndian who hat been admitted t o

the bar in B.C .

Was it because these people lacke dintelligence? Judging from ' th earticle which I was told was writte nby a law student (and which I pra ywas an invalid criterion of his abil -ities), it wculd seem that intelli-gence should not be too much of a ncbstacle .

Was it because these people wereCommunists? The lack of suppor tfor such a revolutionary principl ewould indicate that this was not th eissue at stake . •

Was it because of the color o ftheir eyes (which is generall ybrown)? or the color of their hai r(which is generally black)? or th ecolor of their skin (which is gen-erally somewhat darker) ?

Surely, you say, men as intelli-gent' as most Benchers are assume dto be, as well-educated as they un-doubtedly must be, as solicitous ove rthe rights of his fellow man as the yappear to be, surely, you say again .such men would never allow, muchI( ss endorse such vicious, suchridiculous, such odious and discrim -inating regulations ,

But Loco• Othcr w' IHC can the deart hof criental lawyers he explained ?

(Note : The term Oriental include sall British subjects mind Collodio ncitircns of Aslutd' extrauticn as \vei lis those horn 'uI the Orient) .

Congers have sopularly been plc -ailed as artful told conniving in-dlviduaht . justly or not . In on ecase at !cast, their cunning manipu -h tion o f words has enabled themto coact hccnstitutional safeguards "neuinst undesirables (such as thos e

ith certain color of eyes, hair an d!l :in) which even an experiencedI, .w student—namely. your column -ist—w:ls unable to sec through . Hesays, quite wrongly :

"But, because men of good sens e(meaning the Benchers) rarely eve nconsider that (discrimination be -cause of color differences) as a pos -sibility, this constitutional safeguard(against persons with different pig -mentation) was somehow omitte dI'' um the "Legal Professions Act ."

(Pnrenlhcsis were my anal .

Just how fur a person may stra yf rom the truth, I cannot imagin eYcur columnist certainly came clos eto the limit . Even he, however ,may be excused because no unsus-pecting person would sec any wron git the regulation which limits en-rolment in the profession of lawto those who, upon reaching the 'age cf 21 would be placed on th eprovincial voters' list .

The significance of this•innocent -Iic ;(ing regulation becomes eviden twhen you rcmclnhcr that' before th e"Provincial Elections Act" wa samended in 1947, no Oriental wa sallowed to t'ntc . He therefore coul dnot become a lawyer ,

Was this regulation intended t odiscriminate against the Orientals ?Certainly so! It was no coincidenc ethat it was repealed shortly afte rthey (excluding the Japanese) wer eg!'t nted the franchise .

In order to make it impossible inthe future for the Benchers or anyother body to bar applications fo rwhat appears to your columnist, tocur readers and to myself, as "silly "reasons, it may be a good idea fo rDr . Savory to accept your column -ist's suggestion and forward a reso -luticn to the Provincial Legislatur ewith the provision that "no one shal lhe refused admission to the La wSociety of B . C . by reasop of th ecolt . of his hair, or of his eyes, o rby any ether equally foolish rea-sons . "

I, for one, would be only to o

pleased to sign it.

CASUAL OBSERVER

Editor, The Daily Ubyssey, Sir

After reading the Letters to th eEditor for the last three years i nsilence, I have finally stirred my -self from my blissful lethargy i norder to make a couple of observa -tions, which you may take for wha tthey are worth .

I''irst in regard to the Totem's driv efor subscriptions, one wonders whe -ther students are withholding thei rsubscriptions fcr fear Chat they ma ybe too old to read it by the tim edelivery Is made .

Not only did it provide goo dmusic and something to watch whe nore .got tired of daucin„ but fo rIhr first time at n Varsity D,mtec Icoos able to spcalt to my friend sw shout having to shout (mill m yfriends are not draf), and I ecul dd . ace without being in fear of hav -ing my eardrums shattered .

On behalf of the executive an dnumbers of the Inter Fraternit yCouncil, I wish to thank the Publi -cations Board for the co-operatio nand goodwill that has existed be-tween us during the past year an dsincerely hope that this spirit o fco-operation will continue throug hthe following .

WANTS UMBRELLA . . . . 7BC . .Editor, The Daily Ubyssey : Sir—.

Someone gave me a very lovely um -brella for Christmas, an umbrell aof a sedate green and brown plaid ,that exactly matches both my gree nand hrcwn coats. I mistakenl ythought it was going t'o rain onFriday, so brought it to UBC wit hme, How unfortunate that it di dnot, and that I was not walking i ncircles around the campus with m yhrolley firmly held over my hea dthe whole day . How unfortunatethat I decided to sit for a while a tnoon in the Mildred Brock room ,trus't'ing that my umbrella, safelyhidden beneath my coat, hung u pin the cloakroom (according to reg -ulations one should not break), wa sfilched from its unoriginal hidin gplace . It reminds me all too strongl yof two years ago when the ver ysame thing happened to a pair o fgloves .

Even if our local thieving epidemi cleas partially halted recently, m yfeelings are just as hurt as if theumbrella was ancient and dis-appeared five months ago . I sugges tthat my umbrella should be return -ed f'orthwit'h : furthermore, I darethe horrid person in whose posses -sion it now is . to carry it aroundthe campus. From now on I shal linspect any umbrella I see and ac tiaccordingly . I'm mad, see . Irtci -(entally, it was the first time I(vet. used the umbrella, or rather ,the first time I had ever taken i tout of the house with the intentio nof using it,

Saturday Flight criminal sA. couple of thousand UBC students wil l

pack themselves into the Commodore, Cab-aret this week, grimly determined to have u

good time . Many of them will display what.

has become the badge of British Columbi a

night life, the hip pocket bulge .It will be perfectly legal to have on e

cocktail or ten at the Commodore Cabare t

on Thursday or Friday night because th e

Commodore will have magically become n

"private place" for UBC's Mardi Gras, Bu t

under British Columbia 's hoop-skirted liquor

laws the Commodore will once more becom e

"public" on Saturday and the hip pocke t

bulge will be a criminal offence .

In addition to its , obvious inconsistenc y

with public thought and habit, B .C,'s liquor

legislation is particularly objectionable t o

young persons of university ago who are

hieing their initiation to social drinkin g

13y its jn'nt,ranl of alcohol education i n

high wheals ; British Columbia recognizes th e

importance of an intelligent public approach

le liquor and drinking . Then, in a magnificen t

hit . of muddle-headedness, British Columbia

(urea its youth into back seat, pig sty drink-

ing trod its attendant vices .

Most UBC students don't take the mil k

bottle to their dinner table, but they are

forced to take the liquor bottle to a nigh t

.club, They can't buy a drink, they have t o

buy a drunk ,Education in alcohol cannot stop in hig h

school if young people are to develop a n

honest, wholesome attitude towards liquor ,

That wholesome attitude can be developed

only by stopping the sneaky, behind the bar n

drinking which today 's laws foster ,

A man for whom most people had los t

hope has just been elected president of the

United States largely because he mingled

with those who marked the ballots instead

of with those who marked the cheques .

George Drew lacks the "common touch "

so valuable on the political hustlings, but th e

unique combination of his solid, fatherly air

and the charm of his wife give them both a

special niche in Canadian politics ,

Ubyssey Editors Get The

Works In RCAF Harvard

Novia Hebert, news editor and Art Welsh, senior editor of The Dail y

Ubyssey were interviewing F/0 O'Brien, only jet Vampire pilot attendin g

UBC when it was jokingly suggested that he take the two for a ride . O'Brie n

called their bluff, Miss Hebert had never been in a plane before and Mr ,

telsh had only been "flying " in the Aero Club's link trainer . Here is the i

This story started (At as a publicity story for the RCA F

Auxiliary Flight at UBC .

Through a futile jest it was turned into a nerve-wracking

yet exhilirating flight in an unsuspecting Harvard trainer .

This all started last Satur day when0

IIorful ,

Donn ; hxps is a :arc way of wak-ing up, we found. It is one of th eIM sI cxhilirc,ling experiences yo ucould go through just {wrote a lec -ture,

P .O . O'Brien told its a little abou tthe ,jct .; and their use . As one of th e20 pilots on the coast who is qualifie dto fly jets he is well qualified to tril lanyone of the advantages of the RCA FAuxiliary at UBC. As a chemical en-gineering student he is a member o fthis flight . During the war he wa sflying in the Burma theatre for threeand a half years ,

If there is any better recommenda-tion for the RCAF Auxiliary it i swhat Obie said when we were on ourway home : "This flying isn't a verylucrative job but it sure is a hell o fof a lot of fun . "

OFFER OPPORTUNITYThe RCAF (UBC) Auxiliary fligh t

is offering freshmen the opportunityto fly jets if they are physically fit .

After their three-year training withspecial two-week summer camp an dextensive ground training, men whoapply to the RCAF Auxiliary will beflying jets with F,O. O'Brien. Youwill be flying to Seattle and back inthe short time you are missed as didO'Brien ,

As there are only one-seater jet sas yet we had to do our flying in aHarvard trainer ,

PARACHUTES NEEDED

Parachutes were deemed necessar y

The trouble was admirably solv-ed when a ground crew sergeant pro-duced a pair of oversized coverall swhich were draped over news editor' sperson . Operation cover-up was com-pleted when along came operatio nparachute . The idea, it seems, is t oget into a pa'chute and still be ableto hail out if it was found necessary .

We were both somewhat nervous .Possibility of "flipping the biscuit"made it imperative that we both besupplied with paper bags for theoverflow from one's upset stomach .

Ruggermen Down Crimson Tid e6y Tremendous 11-0 Count

By CHUCK MARSHAL L

Revenge, the motive for the more than a few murders ,was achieved in full by Coach Albert Laithwaite and his rugb yplaying Thunderbirds on Saturday as the students made thei rdebut into 1949 McKechnie Cup play by trouncing the Victori aCrimson Tide by a lopsided 22-0 count .

Just about this time last year then--

--

'Birds suffered their first defeat i n

many a season when the Tide decis-

toned them by a close 7-6 count an d

nobody, especially Laithwaite, eve r

forgot the incident .

As a matter of fact, Albert passe d

around clippings of last year' s game

on the way over to Victoria just to

make good and sure that everyone

remembered the affair .

FIRST TALLY

Whether it was the clippings or no t

the 'Birds ' lost little time in settin gup their first tally once the game go t

underway, The UBC scrum moved the.

play up to the Tide's 10-yard lin e

shortly after the opening whistl e

sounded and then on the next play

fleety Stan Clarke grabbed up the

loose ball and scampered the remain-

ing distance .

H i l a r y Wotherpsoon, individua lhero of the day, got the first of hi s

11 points by making the convert goo d

at .d the count stood at 5-0 for the

students .START ROLLING

That was just the signal for the

, Blue and Gold crew , to start rollin g

and from then on there was no stop-

ping them.

,

Halfway through the first stanz a

" Spoon " drew gasps from the crowd

and players alike as he booted hom e

a beautiful free kick from 35-yard sout and then just before the breathermade it one for the books by scorin g

a try after a long run along the sid elines to make the count 11-0 for th estudents at half time.

The second period was just more o f

the same with Victoria coming close

on several occasions but always bein gstopped by the determined UBC scru mbefore they could do any damage.

THREE MORE

On the other hand the collegianswent over three times more on trys

by Jack Armour, Junior Tennant en d

Bill Dunbar with Wotherspoon makin gone of the converts to give the 'Birds

a tremendous 22-0 edge before thefinal whistle was sounded .

In a *preliminary game the Chiefs ,

a second UBC team, helped the local sto a clean sweep by downing Victori aCollege 11 . 3 ,

A marvellous field goal by Ron

Williams halfway through the firs tsession started the scoring parad eand was followed minutes later whe nDon Nesbit went over for a try, t ogive the locals a 6-Q lead .FINAL TALLY

Starry newcomer to the UBC fold ,flack Nelson, notched final Blue an dGold tally of the period on three -line play and when Bob Cron ha dmade the convert good the Chiefswere out in front 11-0 .t Just before the halftime breathe rthe islanders made their lone scor eof the day when their scrum pushed

Pete Powell over for a try . However ,the convert was missed and at th ewhistle UBC was out in front 11-3 .

The second period was just as dul las the first was interesting as neithe r

side was able to set up a scoring pla ydespite repeated attempts particularl yby the locals .

The only cloud on the UBC horizo nwas the injury to linesman Ron Gran twho was car ried from the field on astretcher after suffering a bad kne einjury.

; the visitors' stay a pleasant one .

'Birds in Important

First Tally

Vetera nBill Dunba rScores try

There were a lot of people happ y

about the Thunderbbirds shel l ackin g

(if the Victoria Crimson Tide Settle -

day in the island city, but perhap s

the gayest of the mall was the 'Birds '

veteran fullback Bill Dunbar wh o

scored the students' final try o f

the day .

The reason for his elation, as Bil l

himself put it, was "that this wets

the first time ' in my life I've ove r

scored points . I have been playing

rugby for almost 10 years now bu t

up till now had never made a tally . "Dunbar made the try on a play that

the 'Birds have been practicing fo r

a long time but never had a chanc e

to use before.The lack of scoring on Bill's par t

has not been due to any lack o f

skill, since he has won his Big Bloc k

a number of times, but to the fac tthat in the rugby set up the fullback

always plays well in the rear as a

last line of defence rather than as a noffensive player,
