MR. BENNETT, MR. BENNETT! — I've solved the universit yproblem: We sinsply shorten the term so they can work longer in the summers .

LETTERS 'TO THE EDITOR

Chernov: Pec*Ie 'sPoetThe Women's Athletic Directorate is t bastion of some

sort . In these trying times of crises Berlin and otherwise ,W.A.D., as it is called, is just about the only group tha tretains an unwavering sense of the proportion of things .

' Right now it's going about. the business of choosing a

W.A.D. - G.O.D., or (Gentleman of Distinction) . Thereason for this strange activity was not made clear to us ,but it 's doubtless for some charitable purpose . Thus wereceived a call from W .A.D . 's Marg Young the other dayasking for some publicity and asking would The Ubysseyrun a candidate .- ,Of course The Ubyssey would run a candidate . Never

for a moment was there the slightest hesitation on our part ;the one ideal candidate stands out like a beacon : AllanChernov .

Chernov, 18, was born in Vancouver on February 27,1940.. He attended Edith Cavell Public School for sevenyears and then went on to King Edward High School forfour years before coming to U .B.C ., where. he is in secondyear Arts .

He is a -member of the fraternity Zeta Beta Tau ; hethinks U.B.C . . is "just great" ; he used to spend his summersat a, "summer place" or "camp", but now he works summer -

• times ; he .likes progressive jazz and classical music, bu tnot rock 'n roll, . hillbilly or other "bad" music ; he thinksprofessors are "just great" ; he was third string end on thesenior high school football team • for one year ; he joinedThe Ubyssey hi October, 1958, and has been reported• miss-ing by his parents.

Not an. unusual record, the reader may remark . Butwait we -laoniiiiate this marr not only because of ,the cross-Siectionakty of his record • (indeethhe is , the People's Candi-date) ; but-, because of his hitherto unpublished poetrywhich has moved one admirer to state that he expresses thehopes-axed hungers of the whole North American people .

We . 'reprint a . few= of his works: ,The ball is . broken,

'The tubber ball Is broken ;Poof, the air goes out,

- The .1)4 is-dead.It lies there in the dusty stree tI cry, I cry . the bitter . . .

"The rest of this manuscript isslost.• `From a later periodprobably is the following:

Today. is Game. Day ;Today we playnidagee .Wd shall win or lose ,That much is sure .0 that I might dash but in the dying momentsTo. make the winning TDBut no, mya4ate ie the benchMy destiny the sidelines of life .

'Fitrally, a recent Chernov .werk:-Here.. in the heart of thingsI sit at my grey typewriter

'Editor, The Ubyssey ,Dear Sir :

Considerable time-haselapsed since Professor Davisdelivered his "The University -System in Canada" on the -CBCin which he revealed his-opin-ioh 'of' higher 'education a tUBC. I feel that I may nowcompliment my fellow studentsfor the manner in which the yreacted to the hysterical attackof this gatherer of impressionsfrom .the Dark Continent . Likesensible people, they have re-frained from flooding thiscolumn with angry protestsand have exiled him to thelimbo conversation over coffeedips. Like the' Royal Family, .they have responded to eriti-cism with journalistic silence .

This does not mean that hisunkind remarks are ,fprgotten .Indeed, n0 Wherever studentsgather, his sour grapes arepeeled and chewed. They havetwo flavours. -One is sweet *idis enjoyed by students whocame to university- with theromantic notion that they weregoing, to. be, subjected to theinfluence of learned men i nthe manner implied by th eclassic • definition of a univer-sity. Being disenchanted wit hthe blossoms of scholarship ,their instructors, and ' beingdiscouraged that - these blos-soms will ever yyield,fruit tha twill feed their hungry minds ,these students savour ProfessorDavis' remarks. about theshort comings of, instructorswith. they relish of selfe igiateousagreement, and they - reverehim as a ve.Mable ',John theBalatist who:has cried out th etruth ha a wilderness ofPhilis-tines.

Td. .more, praetieal students ,among whose .nunbers I coun tmyself, Professor Davis' innu-endoes produce a• • bitter taste .Who does he think he is, any-way? It's always the same . Youinvite these foreigners to shar eyour prosperity, and wha tthanks do you get? They eithersteal your silverware like Axe lWenner-Gren or they go an dtell . everybody that your cut-lery is only-esterling - platedlead . . . .

It is a •truism to say that weoften take our way of life forgranted and fail to recogniz ethat foreigners haven't reache dour level of enlightenment, bu tit is difficult to understandry y nebodye made the effor tto explain to Professor- Davisthe -facts . of lifeepertaining toNor th : American-- education .Any ,plumber, or high schoolkid'eould easily have told him .

that people on this continentonly go to university in orderto secure a ticket which wil lopen the doors of jobs whichpay more money and are mor eeffortless than - plumbing, . dig-ging ditches, and other similaremployments . This deficiencyof adequate orientation of staffis but another example of th eup-to-date administration pro-cedures which, ' at' least oncea year, are capable of turningthe campus into an orientalbazaar the like of which MarcoPolo might have seen and con--demned .

Perhaps the authorities hav ebeen taught a lesson by Pro-fessor Davis . Perhaps in the

future they will be more carefu lin the choice of-people theyplace in positions which ar esanctioned to corrupt youn gminds .

JOHN MADDE N

Next year the fight forbetter financial support fro mthe government must be con -

- tinued, the new athletic setupmust be carefully watched ,and the plans for the newstudent building must be thor-oughly studied .

l'he•college shop, the Exec-utive Member 's special inter-est, should I think, be con-tinued along the same line sas at present .

` :Having represented the stu-dents off campus at the Brit-ish Empire Games, I woul dappreciate the opportunity torepresent the students oncampus as Executive Member .

'RICH SCARDINA3 fitnp agpads Slue au,the Executive Member has i sthe administration of the col-lege shop, As manager of thi sshop this year I feel that Ihave the experience and abil-ity to, thatthe college shop: should foielow. The position of executiv emember should be expandedto include sitting on certaincommittees such as FreshOrientation, Food Servicesand-Housing . I feel that'thesecommittees are very import-ant to' the students and I canserve them best in this cap-acity.

-V10E-PRESIDENTSTAN MADER

I feel that the position ofVice-President is such that itrequires continued assistancetoe Council and specifically, t othe President, but is not con-dueive to an extensive pre-election platform .

hi this-respect I shall avoidthe aforementioned , and simp-ly pledge to be at all timesaware- of the needs of you,the student, and attempt ,through Council, to promoteplans to assist in the allevia-tion of these needs. On thi sbasis I would ask for yoursupport next Wednesday.

PETE . SINS'!he•dattes of• Viet-President

consists- of more than as out,lined in the constitution andthe Vice-President must bewilling, and . have experienceto be able to do unspecifiedwork at a moments notice .

-Specified d u ti a s- includeChairman of the Disciplineand the Student GovernmentCommittees amongst others .

Having served on Council'this year and on these tw ocommittees, I know somethingof the problems involved .

To `these ends I will applymyself with sincerity an dvigor.

DAVID ANDERSONIf elected to Council, my '

course of action will be towork: for a better financia ldeal for students .

Specifically, this meanscontinuing the opposition to aLarge ••fee increase and sup-iorting4 the°= campaign to haveextbooks .eosts-dedueted fromncomue'for tax purposes .

With respect to dubs, I willnvestigate the allotingof club

rooms and finances with th epurpose of enlarging thescope of their activities . Inview of the proposed Studen tUnion building, I feel suc han investigation is doublyimportant .

HARVEY SMIT HThere are two questions t o

ask every candidate . Has heany practical experience fo rthe job? Has he any specificplans to fulfill if elected?

Since I have served as Vice -President of UCC, and- asVice-President of Parliament-ary Council, I have som eknowledge of campus prob-lems .

The following points of m yplatforms deal with some ofthem :

1. Obtain more club spaceby buying old huts .

2. Investigation of boo kstore prices .

3. Improve t h e parkin gareas .

C vBS..COMM1TTtECHAIRMANDAVE BRI8TO W

Friday night the Birds, led byBarry Drummond put on theirbest Conference performance o fthe year . Engineer Drummondtook down a UBC record in re-bounds as he grabbed off 19 'while scoring 19 points.

Ed Peterson, appearing in thestarting lineup, also turned in agood - performance with 1 4points all from the field .

League leading scorer RayWashburn kept up his torridpace as he scored 24 of the visi-tors 55 points Saturday .

On Saturday night, however ,the Birds played only one halfof good ball . They appearedsurprised to be ahead 26-20 athalf time . Consequently, whenthe Eastern team came out ofdressing room fired up theBirds appeared discouraged.

After the Birds opened thescoring with a foul shot in thesecond half the visitors poure din 9 quick points and neverlooked back .

In the first half the Birds out-rebounded the opposition 24-1 3and then were outrebounded29-19 in the second half. How-ever it was their shooting aver-age that was affected mostly bytheir lack of confidence. In thefirst 20 minutes the Birds sho t35%, while in the second halfthey could only connect on14 percent .

Barry Drummond again ledthe Birds scoring with 11, whileDave Dumaresq scored 10, fou rof these in the last minute ofplay after the Birds had beendown 47-40 .

Next games for the UBC teamwill be this weekend when theyplay Conference leading PLC onFriday and Central on Saturday.If a large crowd greets the Birdson Friday, the Birds could veryeasily regain their poise an dbeat the PLC team.
