0 Sometime during every colleg esession, The Ubyssey prints a

story about the student passes an dhow much they are worth to th eaverage undergraduate .

For example, the Ubyssey an dthe student council will tell upper-classmen that their pass will ad-mit them to their class party whichwould otherwise cost three dollars.The pass costs three dollars . There -fore the pass is worth the clas sparty alone. That's how the driftof the 'thing runs.

Starched TraditionBut there's something behind

this item of news which The Ubys-soy omits to mention, which thestudent council omits to mentionand which the class executive It -self omits to mention :

It la this: THE GREATER MA-JORITY OF UPPERCLASSMENARE BANNED FROM THEIROWN CLASS PARTIES BECAUSEOF A CUSTOM WHICH DE-MANDS THAT THEY ATTEND INFORMAL ATTIRE ,

Where now is the value of yourpass? If the party were to beworth three dollars or fifteen dol-lars, you still couldn't attend un-less you could afford to buy orrent a tux. If you haven't got atux you just don't go .

Class executives sometimes try tosoothe their corporate conscienceby telling students they can go in-formal if they want to. Try itsometime . Try dancing in a ball -room wearing a blue suit whil ethe throngs around you are en-cased In starched shirts . You won' ttry it a second time .

Privileged FewIt is a strange paradox that class

parties which are theoreticallyfree to all members of the class,are free only to the privilegedminority who can afford theluxury of a tuxedo. They are theones who could pay their way Inany event. The students whomthe pass really benefits are banne dfrom attendance by a vicious tra-dition .

The money for the Junior Promand the Senior Class party comesIn part from the pass system fund .Thus, THE STUDENTS WHO CA NLEAST AFFORD TO DO SO, AREPAYING THE ADMISSION FEEOF THE STUDENTS WHO CA NAFFORD TO ATTEND THE BAL LIN STYLE .

"Theboys are doing an entirely dif-ferent sort of work. They aregetting exercise and also Improv-ing their efficiency as soldiers,l cut were the girls forced to spendhours sewing, they would be doin gwork which would be of no par-ticular benefit to them .

Last ChanceThis week is the last opportunity stu-

dents will have to reserve a 1940-41 Totem .Only the number reserved will be printedso that no extra expense will be entaile dfrom unsold copies . Every student tha twants a permanent record of this colleg eyear should take advantage of this oppor-tunity at once .

This year's Totem staff is endeavourin gto bring out a book that will contain a com-plete and interesting picture of the collegeyear, a book that is not a mere copy of the

two preceding annuals. A different styleand a different theme will create new inter-est in its pages. The photography will bebetter if anything, and the class picturessimilar in make-up to the easy-reading formof two years ago.

The Totem is something every studentwill treasure years after he has left his Alm aMater. It will grow more valuable everyyear with its record of work and pleasur eduring College days. Get your Totem now .

Camping In MayWith regard to the two weeks camp fo r

military training next May, Applied Scienc estudents at the University are wonderin ghow this camp will affect Survey School andShopwork.

Such a camp is absolutely necessary, ofcourse, if the military training is to be at alleffective. Only in a period of the kind thata camp affords can details of the trainingbe attended to. The camp is also necessar yto fulfil the requirements of the NationalBobilization bill for students over 21 ,

Most Applied Science students, how-ever, have a period of three weeks immedi-ately following the spring examinations forSurvey School and Shopwork which are ab-solttely necessary for their courses .

The question bothering a great manystudents Is whether the training camp wil lprecede or follow this Survey School an d8hopwork. If the camp is held about themiddle of May as has been hinted from offi-cial quarters, there would not be sufficienttime to work in Survey School beforehand,without cutting the school from three weeks

to less than two . If the school is held afterthe training period, it will extend far intoJune and thug greatly reduce the time avail -able for summer work. Doubtless this wouldprevent many students from coming backto University at all, especially those whohave to earn all their board and lodging fees

Thing's loaded armful, "it has beena NOT UNPROFITABLE clay, Iobserve."

• Peefiags in the Salad — If Iowned a Canadian radio sta-

tion I think I could do better outof this ASCAP-BMI row thanAmerican operators. I would pla yall the 'banned' tunes and take allthe Big American advertising Icould lay my hands on . Wonderwhy no one does it . . . Seen onthe COTC notice board : "Will theFOLLOWING MAN please reportto the orderly room" . . . This de-partment still toys with the ideaof a "Self-Indulgence Day" pro -posed by a certain senior editor .He thought of the name , butdoesn't know what to do withit . . . Let's Face the Facts: didyou know that John Goss, whoperformed in the Auditorium onThursday, has a whole verse ofthe sea shanty "Billy Boy" whichis sung with the eyes only be-cause the words are censored ?Mr. Goss incidentally is so struckwith Vancouver that he's decidedto settle here. He's looking for aplace on the North Shore .

• Toronto, Ontario (C . U. P.) —Fourth eel fifth year students

in Chemical Ltd Electrical Engin-eering will be released from theuniversity for urgent work in mu-nitlow and other special war in-dustrlea

AU formal exams will be can -celled and the fifth year studentswill receive their degrees in JuneIf their work is satisfactory .

The Senate of the University ofToronto has advanced a plan to theCanadian government concerning ,the utilization of university stu-dents partially trained in essentialfields, and it is expected that theidea will be well accepted at Ot-tawa .

as well as their heavy faculty fees .Having both Survey School and mili-

tary camp will cause 'a bad enough reduc-tion in most science students' earnings.

Another consideration enters into thepicture. It is desirable, no dos t, to haveall the U.B.C. students going o camp incamp at the same time . If camp is heldafter the Survey School, students of otherfaculties will have to wait around with noth -ing to do for three weeks before camp .

It is hardly possible that any companie swill employ such students for such a shorttime even though they must hold the jobsof their employees who go to camp .

If students from other parts of th eprovince remain in Vancouver waiting fo rcamp to open, they will have board andlodging to pay . If they go home, they willprobably have extra transportation ex-penses .

If all U.B.C. students are going to campat the same time, it would probably be bes tto have the camp immediately following th eexaminations and before Survey School.Some arrangement will have to be made s othat the least possible time Is wasted fo reveryone. The authorities here, fortunatel yare well acquainted with University condi-tions and student problems. They should beable to work out a solution satisfactory to al lparties concerned .

q The Mummery . . . by labels

The goons have struck again !Did you hear that low, roaring noise las t

week, like the death moans of a temporarybuilding?

Did you feel a tremendous rush of wind ,even before the McGoun Debate?

Well, both were caused by the goons ,charging again and again to get their nameson the date bureau list. I saw one goonfight her way into the struggling mob fivetimes, each time to put her name alongsidethat of a different man. Finally she stag-gered out of the pack, beat her chest, andyelled :

"Law of averages—do your duty! "Regretfully, I have been obliged to have

my name removed from the list, as the re-cent wet weather has greatly encouragedthe barnacles on my wooden leg. Besides ,I have vivid memories of a similar venture :the freshman brawl of 1931 .

I drew someone named GwendolynClover, a well-appointed society deb wholived In one of those mighty Shaughnessymansions that coyly hide their 50 or 60rooms behind a barrage of hedges and forest .

Warm ReceptionWhen I drove old Brunhilda up the

drive-way, with her one good cylinder pant-ing noisily, the whole building seemed torear back on its haunches incredulously .When I stepped onto the porch, the door-mat flopped over from the side that sai d"Welcome" , to the side that said "No ped-dlars or agents". When I put my finger onthe buzzer, I had the feeling that I was bein gwatched suspiciously by a lot of electriceyes .

A small grill opened in the door, and anevil-looking face peered out at me .

"What do you want?" it asked ."Nothing you can get through that

hole, bud," I grinned amiably .The door opened, and I stepped inside ."I'm glad to meet you, Mr. Clover!" I

smiled, holding out my hand to the indi-vidual behind the door.

"Mr. Clover is not at home," he drawl -ed. "My name is Berkeley . "

"Don't tell me you 're the man whocomes around!" I whispered .

"I, sir, am the butler," sniffed the but-ler. "Miss Clover will be down in a mo-ment . "

Miss Clover was down in exactly 47minutes, 35 seconds . I stepped forwardbeaming, nevertheless, and thrust out my

fist.

• Peach-of-the-Week concerns aprofessor's wife, several urn-

brellas, and the Other Woman .We'll call her Mrs . Thing be-

cause of the way it worked out .Way our scouts reported it, it

happened at the and of a heavyshopping day. Mrs. Thing wa sloaded down with parcels andready for home when she remem-bered that she had left about hal fa dozen unmbrellas to bo repair -red, and she had just nice time toget them. They were ones thathad been kicking around for yearsand Prof . Thing had said, "Wh ydon't you get them fixed, dear? "so she had .

Well there was another woman a tthe counter, so while Mrs. Thingwas waiting she looked at um-brellas that were on display. Shepicked out a nice one with a loo pon the handle and slipped it onto her wrist . Than she worke dIt up her arm, so she had it nearlyup to her elbow when the othe rwoman turned around .

That's mine! croaked the othe rwoman and came at Mrs . Thingviciously . Mrs. T. had time tonotice her face, which looked likea textbook illustration of salmon -egg before she got her arm fre eand handed back the umbrella .The Salmon-Eggs woman made anoise like the Cadboi oeaurasmating call and vanished .

Well, Mrs. Thing got her si xumbrellas that had been repaired ,and the nice man gave her thebill and said, "Shall I wrap them? "and Mrs . T. said, "Well, no, yo unedn't bother because it's closin gtime and I can see them holdingthe door for me . "

So she walked over 'to Richardsto get a Number 18 car, an dwhile she walked she starte dworking the umbrella loops upher arm, and by the time shegot to the corner she had themall jammed up as high fs theywould go .

And while she was standing i nthe street car, she begun to feelthat the head of the woman infront of her was vaguely familiar ,and all of a sudden it turnedaround and it was the Salmon -Eggs Woman again . Mrs. Thinghad thought Salmon Eggs hadgone home In a huff, but here shewas on the street car all the time .

"Well," says Salmon Eggs in aCadborosaurus bellow, glancingunpleasantly down at Mrs .

"Here!" I exclaimed .She recoiled, staring at my clenched

fingers."What is it?" she cried ."A corsage, of course," I replied, some-

what hurt. "Nasturtiums. Beautiful, aren'tthey? "

"Good God!" she muttered hoarsely ."Grew them in the garden," I added

hopefully."You mean—those things grow?" sh e

asked dubiously ."Like weeds!" I laughed . "Let's go!"

CriticismWhen we got outside, I offered what I

thought was a little constructive criticism ."Don't look now," I said, "but the lin-

ing is hanging out of the back of your hat . "She drew herself up, and grated icily :: :That happens to be a snood!"Confused by my faux pas, I blurted out :"Well, if you don't mind going out with

a bag, I don ' t. Ha, Ha. ",At that she froze over like an ice rink.

Fearing that I had definitely lost la goon,I gave her a chance to get even .

"How do you like this tuxedo?" I asked ."I haven 't seen anything like it," she

sniffed aacarstically, "since vaudeville died .I am particularly fascinated with the wa ythe shirt lights up and says 'Eat at Joe's' ."

"Oh, you'll get used to that," I laughed."I get the suit and Joe gets the advertising;it combines business and pleasure . "

We finally got down to the dance, afterone or two embarrassing delays caused b yBrunhilda stopping to chat over old timeswith passing two-car friends of hers . Thedance-floor was smothered with fried fresh-men, sometimes known as the "emeraldvile". The creatures were wriggling andsquirming over one another, shaking thei rrattles angrily. I kicked one or two out o fthe way, and was just beginning to demon-strate the Chilliwack Stomp ("take thre ehops, then brew it, brother"), when a huge ,handsome junior stepped up, tapped me o nthe shoulder, and said :

"Pardon me ."

"Why', what have you done?" I snappedsuspiciously .

But he had already grabbed the babe ,and they were dancing away at a great rate .I never saw either of them again.

She didn't even have the decency tosend back my nasturtiums.

I've taken my name off the list .

• Boy, oh boy, am I going to cu tloose for the Red Cross Bal l

I wasn't goingto go at first, because it's sponsor-ed by the Greek letter societies ,but since I've found out thateveryone is going, fret or no fret ,I'm going too; Besides ,Josle paysfor her own ticket . That's oneswell Idea, believe me . I have toget her a corsage, though, but I iguess I can manage one from thePoint Grey Flower Shop, 442 9West 10th Avenue. It's so niceand handy to my boarding house .They are Insisting that the cor- tsages be ordered early, because o fa last minute shortage, but if youorder them early enough, therewon't be any difficulty . It's al lfor the Red Cross, too . Of course ,I will admit that I'm going forthe good time we're goit+g to havetoo, sort of a minor motive, isn'tit? I'm wondering about thoseSigma Phi Delta, rumoured tohave lost their pins, at least MaryAnn says so, how does she knowthose things anyway? It reallytakes a man to find out . Anyway,one of them has been taking outa cute, curly-haired blonde fresh-ette. Let's hope, for his sake, tha the doartt't send The Ubysaey tothe girl back home .

Wow! It morns that the presi-dent of a certain group, withheadquarters on the top floor ofthe Auditorium building, northeastcorner, arrived at the morningworship service, the morning afte rthe Nurses' Ball, in a tux, of al lthings. And we always thoughtthat the nurses had to be in atsome unearthly hour, about 10 p .m. or something. I know, I hada girl in the training in the hos-pital once . Talk about the beautysleep I got that year, I didn' teven have to buy many of Purdy'sdelicious chocolates for her, as Ididn't see her often enough. Buttheir chocolates aura make a hitwith Josie, I get it all over herother boy friends. But maybe I' dbetter not tell her other friendsmy ideas . There's tricks to everytrade, though.

VICTORIA 26—VARSITY 3

• The Crimson Tide ofVictoria crushed the

Varsity senior rugby teamlast Saturday and left themall washed up as far as theMcKechnie Cup is concern -ed.

For the Victoria ruggerslicked Varsity by a score of26 to 3 to gain their thirdstraight win, sufficient t ohold the famous cup for an-other year.

The Thunderbirds, who have los tboth their games to date, have tw omore games in the series schedule.Victories in both of these contestswould not be enough to catch th eIsland team .

Varsity 's only score came earlyIn the first half when the scrumpushed the ball over the line,Fraser Shepperd getting credit fo rthe try .

From the opening whistle- theVictoria team outplayed the col-lege team in every way. It wasapparent that the Thunderbird swere no match for the VictoriaReps, rated the best Tide team in15 years. Victoria led 10—3 at th ehalt and added another 16 pointsIn the second hall.

Poor ShapeThe Varsity team had plenty of

fight, but that wasn't enough. Thebiggest reason for the lop-aidedscore was the Thunderbirds' poorcondition after a long layoff.

Todd Tremblay and Wally Trick-er clocked in an offensive com-bination on the three line untilTricker was forced out by an In-jury . Don Ralston, on the wing,tackled well all game.

Bud Falrgrieve, who had beensick all week, took the place ofRay Gorman, who turned up atthe last minute without boots or anapparently great desire to play .

100 Men Vie For"Chink" Title• Thirty-four teams are entered in the Ubyssey 's Chink

Contest, signifying that during the next few weeks ,

one hundred men will be engaged in the largest tourna-ment to be staged on the campus this year .

This Wednesday noon the first elimination rounds wil lbe played in the Gym, commencing a schedule which wil lultimately decide U .B,C.'s Chink Champs for 1941 . Con-testants are asked to make sure when they are scheduled t oplay and be on time for games so they will not run the riskof defaulting .

Besides the glory of being crowned champions, the win-ners of the tournament will receive a prize of $3.00, while therunners-up will get $1 .00 cash. An entry foe of fifteen centsper team is being made to cover expenses — this sum duewhen the teams meet for the first round .

A detailed schedule for the knock-out tournament ha sbeen drawn up and posted in the Sports Department in th ePublictions Office, and all are advised to acquaint themselveswith it . After each round the captain of the winning team i sheld responsible for coming to the Pub and marking his nam eand scores in the proper space on the schedule .

Rounds will be best two-out-of-three games, a gamebeing won by the first team making 15 points . All gameswill start at 12:30 or 1:00 p.m. as per schedule. Teams mustbe on hand promptly or default and be automatically droppe dfrom the tournament .

Below is the draw for this week ' s first-round games. Itis hoped that the Gym will be available more aften after thi sweek so that rounds may b run off as quickly as possible .

• Neither Varsity or Ex-Kits wereable to force in a winning goal

in their game on Saturday. Thescore stood tied 1-1 at half-time,and remained so until the fina lwhistle blow .

The muddy field at ConnaughtPark failed to slow up the fastpace of the game during the lasthalf — for 30 minutes the playsea-sawed back and forth wit hmany attempts on both goals —but they were unsuccessful .

Ex-Varsity star, Merne Nevison ,scored for Kits ; and Jean Hand-ling flicked in Varsity's point .

We like dogs, but when onesaunters across the field as Var-sity's forward line is firing on thegoal — well dog-gone-it, we don't .The shot hit the hound and re -bounded, . Jean hit the reboundinto the goal ; but. as one mightexpect, the goal was dissallowed .

Individual playing was good ,but team work was rather weak—Indeed, we wonder If the girlseven looked at times where theywere passing the ball .

The Varsity eleven is partlyconsoled even by a tie since intheir last encounter they lost t oEx-Kits. The team is on the up-grade, and will make the play-offs yet .

There are prospects of a gameagainst North Van High School onWednesday at 3 :30, watch thenotice board .
