The Daily Ubysse y Vol . XXXI VANCOUVER, B . C ., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 1949 . No . T h REMOVE RISK S FROM GOV' T The four dollars which Paul Plant says must be adde d to student lees will not be used to patch up mistakes of th e past . I studeits approve the increase today, the extra mone y will go directly to campus activities, not to the dead scra p heap of UBC's war memorial gynilwsinin debt . This is the most important single factor to be considere d during the heat of today's referendum which will decid e whether student fees are to be fifteen, sixteen or twent y dollars . The extra four dollars to be added to the present six - teen dollar fee will not be used to mend the mistakes of th e past, but it will ensure that such mistakes do not happe n again . Were there no other benefits at all, the prospect o f future stability for the Alma Mater Society would be suf- ficient to commend the fee increase to all students . It mus t be obvious by now that student government should be a government and not a risk-taking business enterprise . An d as a government, the Alma Mater Society is deserting it s duty by venturing into the field of risk-taking privat e business . . Bleachers which were built for the UBC footbal l stadium some years ago were to be paid for out of increase d gate receipts at football games . The increased receipts didn't materialize, and the $8009 bleachers have added to the dea d weight debt of the society . A subsidized yearbook will save money even for stud- ents who buy only one Totem in four years at university . Subsidization means that the book can be sold for half it s present price and with an assured income from studen t funds the book can be payed from the financial losses whic h burdened the society this year . Rejection of the four dollar increase can mean onl y that all student activity will be crimped . Approval, on the other hand, will benefit all activities, symphony concerts , undergraduate parties and clubs .

HOPE FOR TO P Founded two years ago, the sym- phony orchestra has been restricte d to noon hour concerts ; the sprin g concert, fourth and final concert, wil l place the club in the ranks of th e Players Club, Musoc and Radio So- ciety, the fifty members say . The program the orchestra will pie - sent, under the direction of conducto r Cohn Slim is : Toccata, L'Arlessienne Suite 2, Fin- landia, The Kings Fanfare by th e sixteenth century musician Josaiti n Des Pres ; Aequale by Anton Bruck- ner, and Sinfonia by Banchieri . Thes e last three are quartettes for bras s and are being performed for the firs t time in Canada . HUGE SUCCESS The concert presented by the syrn- phony orchestra to the Open HOUS C audience was a resounding success , playing to a packed audience .

REMOVE RISKSFROM GOV'T

The four dollars which Paul Plant says must be added

to student lees will not be used to patch up mistakes of the

past .I studeits approve the increase today, the extra mone y

will go directly to campus activities, not to the dead scra p

heap of UBC's war memorial gynilwsinin debt .This is the most important single factor to be considere d

during the heat of today's referendum which will decide

whether student fees are to be fifteen, sixteen or twent y

dollars .The extra four dollars to be added to the present six -

teen dollar fee will not be used to mend the mistakes of the

past, but it will ensure that such mistakes do not happe n

again.Were there no other benefits at all, the prospect o f

future stability for the Alma Mater Society would be suf-ficient to commend the fee increase to all students . It mustbe obvious by now that student government should be agovernment and not a risk-taking business enterprise . Andas a government, the Alma Mater Society is deserting its

duty by venturing into the field of risk-taking privat e

business .

.Bleachers which were built for the UBC footbal l

stadium some years ago were to be paid for out of increase dgate receipts at football games . The increased receipts didn'tmaterialize, and the $8009 bleachers have added to the dea d

weight debt of the society .A subsidized yearbook will save money even for stud-

ents who buy only one Totem in four years at university .Subsidization means that the book can be sold for half it spresent price and with an assured income from studentfunds the book can be payed from the financial losses whic hburdened the society this year .

Rejection of the four dollar increase can mean onl ythat all student activity will be crimped . Approval, on theother hand, will benefit all activities, symphony concerts ,undergraduate parties and clubs .

Currie Was Hot

by gordie Shrum

I

It looks like Open House committee chair -man bob Currie is going to have to get him -self larger size hat—and no one is going t odenyiIhimthe right to wear it .

His work for Open House deserves a pa ton the back, a bouquet of orchids, a big han dand all the rest of the cliches that go with atough joe-job well done . The 50,000 peoplewho Caine out to see what was happenin gto their money and their daughters at UB Cmust have gone home well content on bot hscorei .

The months of committee conferences i ntheir (smoke-filled closet in Brock Hall, themiles, of pavement pounded arranging theexhibits and the reams of paper work tha twenttto make up the most successful "visit -ors day" in UBC's history were anything bu tfun for Currie and his harrassed staff, Coun -

cillor's snapped at them for disrupting sched-ules, tempers frayed over speech cancellationsand mocking charges of "czar" were hurle dat the chairman. But it was worth it .

The hundreds of "little people," guides, sub -committee heads and attendants must have re-ceived their share of the "thank you 's" fromvisitors like the elderly gentleman who re -marked "This is the sort of thing we want tosee, the work you actually do presented in aprofessional manner by efficient students .Thanks very much ."

Not only the visitors were impressed b ythe show. The hundreds of students wh otrooped around to the exhibits getting schock-ed, magnetized and photographed were jus tas bug-eyed as their parents .

It's too had we have to wait four years forthe next one .

(In 1. ew of the welter of controvers yover the subject of a fee increase ,The Daily Ubyssey presents the f ol -lowinti letter from Mr . Ron Kelle y

Th case for an increase in feescan e summed up as follows :

because of the heavy admin .istrative costs of our Society andbecause of the restricted income. . ." the budget and presumablyall

acjcing of student activitiesbeco

,a gamble. "The averagestude, g ( this Campus at the pres -,ent time pays a disproportionate feein relation to the value the receivesfor his money" .

On the assumption that no par tof the proposed four dollars woul dhe used in the retirement of theGym debt, it is not' clear how anincrease in fees would iron out th edisproportion in money paid to valu ereceived . It would seem obviou sthat an enlargement of student ac -tivities would not decrease admin -istrative costs 'in the least nor i sthere the least assurance that thewould not grow heavier . Specifi c .ally, in the costs, in a six month speriod ending December 31st, 1948AMS expenditures were $17,000, ou tof which $11,000 went to administra -tion . Part of the remedy woul dseem to lie in an overhaul of th eadministrative system—a good tas kfor the business manager . The argu -ments for an increase seems to h ebased on the doubtful promise tha tadministrative costs cannot be cu t

clown . Another matter that migh thear investigation is Student Coun -cil expenses (there is no suggestionof responsibility or lack of integ -rety intended by that statement—economies should begin at home . )Any argument t'aht we should in -crease fees merely to make admin -istrative costs lower in proportio nis ridiculous .

The net idea of the Plant proposa lis a subsidization scheme . To depart from nebulous financial theor -ies, the practical result can be see nin the following example . The En -gineers' Ball of Fire, one of the fe wfunctions where the support for i tcomes mainly from the students ,and, incidentally, one of the bes tpetrenlud events of the year dre wn attendance of approximately 120 0

from an eligible 2000—tickets wer elimited . In other worcls 40 percen tdel re I . or could not attend . Anire ( , e .,se rd suhadiee to individua l(_Nett : gr(,up :, would mean that 4 0t,cmrnl of that faculty would b eI '• I)g ; ; higher pro rata share t oI°rcvidc cheerer entertainment fu r60 percent .

Student activities should not b eheavily subsidized merely to makeit easier for a treasurer to plan afinancial program . The question o fquality and merit of particular grou pactivities must be considered. Th eI . ensurer under-rates student intel -ligence by assuming that a studen twill attend a function because it i s

In Plant's breakdown of the $20fee there is no provision for retirin gthe Gym deficit . Presumably i twould have to come from the si xdollars allotted to administration,clubs and the Publications Board .At the same time the treasurer in -sists that no part' of the four dollar swill be used to retire the debt . Tha tis a purely sophistical argument .Somewhere out of 15, 16 or 20 dollar sthe Gym debt must be paid . It i sexpected that this year some $25,00 0will be retired . A good deal of this .

money is a result of the 1948-4 9austerity program—our just rewar dfor our happy, care-free, postwa ryears . The Gym debt is a mera lobligation which, we as students ,must meet by another year of atd sterity and economy . But, a $4 in -crease would ask a large numbe rof students who do not participat ein Campus functions to assume th ebrunt of that obligation .'• 1n effect, we cannot see that th e

rrOposed increase in the fees is jus -tifiable in the least, Before studentecast their ballots they should con -sider the matter carefully . At anyrate, Every student on this Campu sshould make sure that he signifie shis opinion by casting his ballot .

Despite the austerity the books jus tbalanced . Next year the other $12, -000 will have to be paid .

U

ULESS THE FEES ARE IN- -creased we will see austerit ywhere it hurts most,

We cannot, either, charge the pres -ent position of the AMS to ineffi -ciency in past councils . Those whosememories go back to September 194 7will remember Mr . Harwood's ple afur austerity then . A plea whic hwas largely ignored . Despite thi shrndicap Harwood left the societ yin no worse position than he foun dit, Only by judicious managemen te .nlld even this have been achieved .Students demanded that the mone y

be spent . It was spent . The deb t(n the gym accrued because stu-dents in past years resisted auster -ilc ,

From Hope To Reality

Pharmacy Comes Of AgeTitle year Pharmacy reached its

full enrolment of three years an dnow contains all of 193 students ,Tho' few in number, they still man -aged to select faculty colors an dpins, organize social functions an dgenerally participate in UBC life .

Soon now you'll be seeing anotherdifferent colored sweater on th ecampus, grey with maroon arm

bands . These are the colors finall y

chrism when the first choice—ma-roon and white—appeared on pre-med students' shoulders the first ofthe year . Pharmacy pins with agrey mort'or and pestle superimpose d

on them will appear this spring also .

Three successful dances were hel dthis year, a formal and two in -formals . The formal, an annual

affair, was held at the Commodor eCabaret in October together wit hVancouver druggists and under theauspices of the Sea Goings Hack s(Drug House Travellers) .

The fall informal at Alma Acad-emy was a real student effort, wit hstudents obtaining, preparing an dserving the food, taking tickets an dsupplying the music ,

Pharmacy has finally come of age in Cana-da 's youngest province . Today, with so man ynew drugs being discovered and so muc hknowledge being required to work with them ,the timing could not be better .

For many years progressively-minded'phar -macists of the British Columbia Pharmac-eutical Association worked for the establish-ment of a Department of Pharmacy at th eUniversity of British Columbia . George T .Cunningham of Cunningham Drug Stores wa sone of the most active members in this respect .The efforts of this group were rewarded i nSeptember 1946 when the new Departmentof Pharmacy was officially established andthe first class enrolled .

The future success of this new departmen twas assured when the university authoritie swere able to persuade Professor E . L . Woods ,Dean of the College of Pharmacy of the Uni-versity of Saskatchewan, to head the depart-ment. Dean Woods possesses an internationa lreputation in pharmaceutical fields and hasmore than demonstrated his fine abilities as ateacher and administrator . With an excellentstaff to assist him, the Dean has overcome themany difficulties that have arisen and insti-tuted a course designed to equip graduate swith 'the knowledge so necessary for a mod -ern pharmacist . Today, British Columbia ha sone of the highest standards of education forpharmacists in Canada .

In May of This year, the university wil lgraduate its first class of pharmacists . Thosewho choose to enter retail pharmacy will do

much to relieve the present critical shortag eof pharmacists in the Province. A few haveintentions of continuing their studies toward sa higher degree and eventually taking par tin research or teaching . Still others wil lchoose manufacturing or physician detailingof drug preparations. Whatever field thesegraduates choose, they hold one thing incommon—a desire to enhance and increasethe prestige now enjoyed by their profession .

The "corner drugstore" is in itself a Cana-dian institution and one of the foundationstones of community life . Pharmacists recog-nize this and are proud of the confidence th epublic has in their profession . Occupying a sthey do, a position where they have daily con -tact with the public, pharmacists do much t omaintain and improve public health .

Dr. Norman Mackenzie in his congratula-tory message to the British Columbia Pharm-aceutical Association upon the opening of th enew Pharmacy Department in 1946 expressedthe hope "that before many months pass abeginning can be made upon a permanentbuilding to house this department and to giv eit the facilities which it will need in years t ocome . "

We shared that hope with Dr. Mackenzie .Now in 1949 plans are going ahead for es-

tablishment of a permanent home for theDepartment . Work has already begun on theBiological Sciences-Pharmacy Building on thecampus in which Pharmacy will occupy onewing . Our hopes are now being transmitte dinto reality .

New Technique EffectiveFor Palpitation OE Ethy lPeriod of Observation : 1912 t o

INTRODUCTIO NMany methods may be found i n

chemical books for making compound ssuch as tetraethyl, ethyl, ethyl sul-phate, ethyl acetate. There is on echemical that is quite common, butnevertheless, methods of preparatio nhave not been widely written, an dinexperienced operators have diffi-culty in making it . We are referrin gto ways of making ethyl palpitate .One process in particular is effective ,and a description thereof will b egiven ; but the operation should firs tobserve the prelminaries set forth be -low .PRECAUTION S

To begin with, the time and plac efor making ethyl palpitate should b ewisely chosen . Evenings are the bes ttime, because sunlight inhibits the re -action . Weekend evenings are ad-visable for two reasons, one is tha tthe operator may have to stand by hi stask until the early morning hours t owork on a slow reaction. The othe rreason is that the palpitated ethy lsometimes needs as long as the week -end to settle . Since there must he n oforeign influences such as light sour-ces, other operators, and agitation, asecluded place should be chosen . Car oshould be taken that ethyl has no tbeen tampered with on the clay pre -ceding the experiment .MATERIALS

The working material is usually th emost important consideration, al -

though experienced operators anhandle almost anything . It has bee nsaid of chemical reactions iii gcncrai' laird of outstanding Vancouve rthat no reactions occur between chem- tIYlMk . , le be presented in special iicals that are not abaolutelr pure . In

1949After tnese precautions are taken ,

the most common procedure is dis-solving ethyl in alcohol, ninety proof ,and follow with gentle application o fheat . To hasten the temperature rise ,many operators revert to jungl evoodooism by whispering magic word sand weird nothings . So mysterious i sthe character of ethyl that it oftenresponds to such incantations.

One of the usual faults is to tryto make ethyl palpitate too quickly .Too much heat may result in disas-trous internal forces which lead thereactions in unpredictable directions .From this fault, some operators hav ebeen known to make ethyl ambulate .

This year, the locals will be tryin gto recapture once again the honorof supremacy in West Coast ruggercircles . After having taken the laurel sin the last two years of competitionagainst the California crew, they wil lbe out to repeat the performance thi sseason .

But the Bruins will be no easy preyter the locals . The entire team of las tyear except Ed Welch, will be bac kwith the California team .

In his stead, Carl Van Heuit, sta rof the Ramblers American Footbal lsquad, will be in the lineup .

190 pound Wilbur Lenz played centr efor the same outfit while Bob Losey ,fast and shifty with his 182 poun dframe, filled the left halfback positio nfor the Rose Bowl losers .

Only an outbreak of good old-fash-ioned school spirit may save the local sfrom severe trouncings in California .

But when the two teams play u phere on the campus for the remainin gtilts of the scheduled series, the sup -port of the entire school will be help-ing them along to victory .
