Executive members of the local Student Christian Movement have indicated that they. favour backing up the S.C.M. national executive in that body’s support of the Combined Universities Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

Last Weekend’s Winterland ‘63 has put U. of W. on the icecarnival map. Approximately 1,400 students took part in the weekend. Treasurer of the committee, Norm Hunt, told The CORYPHAEUS, that the Winterland broke even in its first year instead of losing the expected $200 - $300. A composite team from Arts, Science, Renison and St. Jerome’s managed to snow the Engineers in the Snowbowl game held Thursday, Jan. 25. Following the game, which was a combination of, soccer-football-rugger, a torch parade made its way through campus to a huge bon&e. Extremely cold weather limited the attendance to only the hardy, but the Torch Dance held at St. Jerome’s drew 200. Friday night 200 couples gather in the Crystal Ballroom of the Walper Hotel for the Winterland Ball. Miss Wendy Suttie, Arts II, representing the Science Society was crowned Winterland ‘63 Queen by Dr. F. G. Hagey. Miss Suttie, our first Queen, is a native of Waterloo and is majoring in English. Saturday, a surprisingly large audience witnessed our J.V. Pioneers steal a close game from the W.L.U. Golden Hawks (their s’r. team) 67-65. The winning points were scored in the final minute. Of a scheduled nine snow sculptures, only five were completed for judging Saturday. St. Jerome’s Lion took the Award of Merit and Science’s Pig captured the Most Original Award. Over 450 people attended the bale - Wintersong - An Evening of F,olksing ~with Cedric Smith and Judy Orban - Saturday evening. The Arts Theatre, where the folksinging was held, had been completed just two days prior to the, event.

Last week, at the University of Toronto, a member of the executive ok that university’s S.C.M. branch caused a furore when he claimed that his group’s endorsement of the natJonal executive’s stand was improper.

He complained that the endorsement had been carried at a meeting where “there was only a very small turnout, just enough in fact, to form a quorum.” He said that the matter had been pushed through while public reaction to Liberal Leader ‘Lester B. Pearson’s was greatest and questioned “the Christian sincerity and honesty of some members of S.C.M.” Photo:T. R.

Local S.C.M. chairman, Earlby Wakefield commented that his group had not ~officiall;v” discussed the matter but that it “won’t do us (Canada) any good” to accept nucIear weapons under the present circumsumces.

Uphold&g the atlirmative side of the proposition, aResoIved that a system of government supported, separate,. secondary schools should be established in Ontario,” are Waterloo engineers Gord Sterling and Bill McKibbon. The Osgoode orators will oppose the resolution.

The Waterloo debaters have ’ bso been invited to enter next weekend’s parliamentary style tournament at the University of Western Ontario where the Medicare problem is being discussed. However, because of a shortage of qualified speakers, it appears that this invitation will have to be declined. As with other campus groups, the Union’s biggest problem in its first year of operation has been a shortage of participants.

Delegates to the national convention here rallied to calls of ‘live up to our commitments,n and %tand up and be counted” and voted 52-11 in favour of the resolution. e

Peter Batson, president of the local Circle K, accepted the charter on behalf of his organixation from H. J. McCarrey, Lt. Governor of the Ontario - Quebec - Ma&hues Kiwanis Region.

Fifteen U. of W. students of the new group were inducted into the Circle K International and each received a pin to signify their membership in the organization of over 425 clubs and 9,000 members. Dr. J. G. Hagey welcomed the student organixation onto the campus and said that only unselfish service to those less fortunate than yourselves can bring that moment of of selfish pride in your work.

Frank Condlin, Circle K vice president, accepted the traditional Kiwanis gong and leather briefcase for the treasurer from D. Morrow, chairman of the -K-W Circle K committees. President Howard Fromkin, WLU Circle K, presented his opposite group at U. of W. with a gavel.

Proponents of the nuclear policy claimed Canada could expect to be consulted by the on the nuclear question if she not contributing to the forces of NATO and NORAD.

Opponents of the policy claimed “the world is on the shore of a disarmament agreement,” and that Canada’s acceptance of nuclear arms could seriously affect any role she could play in negotiations to such an agreement.

“The cause of peace has been advanced because of the strong stand the West took in Cuba,” Edward Kowal, U. ‘of T. Law School, said. He claimed that it was the massive nuclear threat of the West that caused the Soviets to pull their missiles out of Cuba. Another resohnion calling for financial aid to students participating’ in a Canadian Teace Corps’ was defeated.

The resolution asked the government to pay tuition of university students who would later spend three to five years working in an underdeveloped country.’ It also called on the government to pay half the salary of a grad. while serving his three to five year term. Those opposing the motion said that Canada should be keeping her university graduates ratherthan shipping them overseas.

Supporters said that students re-’ turning from an overseas post would have a better understanding of the people of foreign countries and thus would have much to contribute to Canada’s understanding of foreign problems.

Council

for The Student

As each day passes we come into contact with far too many students who in the midst of essays, test and preparation for exams, are saying: “I don’t know why the hell I’m taking this course!” They are quite sincere. They really haven’t any idea why they’re taking some particular course. In the scramble for registration and in the confusion of choosing a timetable so that subjects don’t conflict and that allows them out an hour ealier, the student is constantly pressed for an immediate decision without necessary counselling. Especially in Arts subjects, when on registration day students queue up ten deep and have five minutes with each professor or faculty member, it is difficult for first year students to choose subjects responsibly with little background information except a cursory outline of courses in a university calendar. This university, one of the newest and probably the fastest growing in Canada, has before it a golden opportunity to see that students gain the most from their university education. There are far too many failures of students capable of doing better academic work if they had been professionally directed into the proper courses. This Uni-

versity could be among the first in this country to institute a guidance and counselling service on campus, directed and operated by professional persons trained in counselling university students. Of course, the immediate problem that will be pointed out is the lack of money available to establish such a service for the student, especially in our university where we are still seeking vital faculty and other buildings. But consider a more important aspect - how much money is wasted by administration attempting to educate a student who. will ultimately fail because he has choosen poorly himself. Not only has he wasted time, sometime precious years, but a good deal of his money has been invested in a course, or courses, that he is unsuited for or is unable to handle. The high schools of this country are too poorly understaffed and deal with too many large groups to properly do the job of counselling and guidance. It is now up to the University and this one in particular, to take up this task - put students on the right track, cut down failures and graduate educated young eople who are firmly convinced that they- hav__it chosen _ the correct course and are on the right path.

- First-Aid On Friday, Oct. 12, 1962, this paper carried an article which examined the state of emergency health services on campus. It was reported then that there was no first aid centre anywhere on campus. Confusion and disinterest were most in evidence. On Friday, Nov.‘ 12, 1962, we ran a front page editorial charging the supposed responsible authorities with irresponsibility. There was no direct response to our plea or charge. On Nov. 16 we carried a report of the availability of a free chest x-ray unit which would be on campus. We are proud to take the credit for securing this service for the student. Over 800 students, faculty, administration and staff made themselves available of this service when it visited the campus Nov. 27 and 28. Students’ Council set up a Health Services Committee to investigate the situation. The committee met with members of administration in the last week of November. Numerous suggestions were made, and the committee was well pleased that the Administration had appeared to accept the responsibility for looking after the service.

DEAR SIR

l

.

An investigation of the campus was to be made by a doctor, lists of equipment were to be prepared, agreements were to be signed . . , all these were partially done. But pressures are great on management and the matter of a Frst-aid Centre disappeared to the bottom of the priority list. We are bringing it back to the top of the list. Our university and its expansion is being continually watched by intelligent and interested people who believe, as this paper does, that the physical well being of a student is slightly more important than a new filing cabinet or electric typewriter. We understand the difliculties of any administration that has to deal with so many new problems in an expanding campus, but we do not understand that when they lay claim to the responsibility, they then proceed to shirk the duty. If the Administration is unable to provide a Frst-aid Centre, let them say it directly instead of letting the idea sit on a shelf for one, or two, or three years, as is the usual pattern. Then, possibly, the Students’ Council will understand its responsibility to the student and provide the Centre.

The NFCUS national student magazine, Campus Canada will be on sale at universities from coast to coast by February 25, but the price may have to be raised from 2%. to 3%. to cover an estimated $1000 loss. It seems that advertising sales haven’t been as high as had been hoped. The 64 page magazine, will include articles, in English and French, from almost every Canadian university. It is being edited by Fred Fletcher of the University of British Columbia. Our winter weekend is over, but at many Canadian universities the fun is still ahead. Our neighbours at Waterloo Lutheran University hold their extravaganza this weekend and are featuring what is being billed as the “Canadian University Snow Queen Contest.” The invitations to participate in the contest, were, however, selective and our Wendy wasn’t one of those asked . . . Canada’s biggest and oldest university carnival is scheduled for Feb. 14, 15 and 16 at McGill in Montreal. Their Carnival Ball features Bobby Hackett’s band with The Journeymen as the headline act in their Friday night show. One of the doorprizes at the ball is $500 tuition money. The Combined Universities Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament opened a new Toronto headquarters this week and invited the RCMP to attend the festivities. U. of T.‘s Art Pape, CUCND president, wrote Mountie chief C. 0. Harvison, telling them that “we would like members of your force to feel welcome to visit the house.” He invited them to “attend annonymously, if you feel that would be more in keeping with our democratic way of life.” Commissioner Harvison told the CUP last week that there are 22 mounties enrolled as fulltime students in Canadian universities. He pointed out that they 1 were on leave of absence and that they had enrolled openly. At the University of New Brunswick, a campus political party, calling themselves the “Christian Atheists,” wants the Redcoats to receive “special government scholarships.” They’re making it a plank in their model parliament election platform. While on the subject of model parliaments, here are the results of the University of Saskatchewan election: Liberals, 24 seats; NDP, 16 and Conservatives, 15. The Ryerson parliament met last week, and in a “free vote,” that is orie disregarding party lines, they rejected nuclear arms for Canada 23 to 12. Most of the Liberals voted with the majority despite Mr. Pearson’s stand on the matter. Campus Liberals at Toronto and British Columbia also opposed the party stand on the question. The Tories weren’t free from grass-roots rebellion, either. At last weekend’s Progressive Conservative Student Federation Convention in Ottawa, Ted Culp, a student at McMaster University voted against a motion atiming confidence in the leadership of Prime Minister John Diefenbaker. The New Democratic Party is holding a seminar for the youth section this weekend at the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph. Some of U. of W. students are attending despite the fact that there is no N.D.P. club on campus. Perhaps, this will provide them with the incentive to organize a group. They might draw on the assistance and advice of Prof. T. H. Qualter of the Dept. of Political Science, who was last week elected president of the Waterloo North New Democratic Party Riding Association. Carleton students smelled a rat when a tunnel system linking all academic buildings on the campus was constructed. But only recently, did they realize where the smell came from. It seems that an Arts freshman found some of the little creatures in his locker which is located in the tunnel. The university administration suggested the student change lockers. The student replied “Rats!” The student newspaper, The Carleton, suggested the administration get rid of the animals., a The Sheaf, a very racy sheet from the University of Saskatchewan, which has been criticized of late by other university journals for alleged tastlessness and vulgarity placed third in the CUP competition for the Jacques Bureau Trophy, given to the best paper in the organization, publishing once per week or less frequently, at the recent CUP conference in Ottawa. Shortly thereafter, they printed on their front page “Canada’s most modest student newspaper, and far and away, its third best.” It’s good to see them finally show their true colours . . . The Ubyssey printed a message to Sons of Freedom leader, Big Fanny Storgoff recently. It read “Put your Douks up, Fanny.”

Just a short note (so you’ll print it!) but one very earnestly meant, to say that the librarians in the Circulation department - Mrs. Fran Breit-

haupt in particular - have proven that there is humanity as well as the humanities within the walls of the Arts Library. We are most grateful to Mrs. Breithaupt and her co-workers for reorganizing when rules should serve as well as be observed - when to follow the spirit of the law rather than the letter. Co-operation such as they show, deserves fullest in return from us. Sandra

OUlk FIRST WINTER “Everything went wrong. I didn’t have a chance.” These were Wendy Suttie’s thoughts just before the identity of the Winterland ‘63 Queen was announced. “Then they opened the envelope and told me I won,” said a very excited Wendy when she talked to a CORYPHAEUS reporter later. “Only when I got the crown and the roses, I started to believe it.” The U of W’s first Winterland Queen is a 20 year old second year Arts student majoring in English. She came to the university following her graduation from Waterloo Collegiate Institute two years ago. Wendy hopes to be a high school teacher of English, history and physical education after she receives her degree. She says that her favourite author is Elizabeth Taylor (no kin to the actress) because “Her novels explain people as they really are.” Wendy has spent three summers as a Y. W. C .A. eouneillor for small children and has also been a volunteer eouneillor at a crippled children’s camp. She also teaches Sunday School where she says, the little boys are her favourites. In high school, she was active in eheerleading, student government and sports, and has maintained her interest in those subjects since coming to the U of W. She enjoys basketball, badminton, swimming and golf. I When asked if the Winterland Queen contest should be held every year, she replied that “every girl should have such an opportunity. I was scared at first, but I learned something from it.” Wendy was nominated by the Science students. Photos:

Standing Ovation for First Arts Theatre Attraction by Dave

Clark

Mr. Clark, Eng. III has always expressed an interest in music and the theatre. He has contributed this article of his impressions of the first presentation in University Arts Theatre - Wintersong of Winterland ‘63.

The champagne broke on the new Arts Theatre last Saturday evening with Wintersong ‘63, and it was a disturbing anti-climax. The theatre is magnificient-plush carpets, upholstered seats, walnut panellingand it was nearly packed. Who opened this luxuriously tasteful addition to the campus’ archiof folksong. tecture . . . two very smart exponents Fortunately, every other pair of ears present seemed to disagree, for after their scheduled numbers, Judy Orban and Cedric Smith received a standing ovation. Our “name dropping” editor Sid Black “faux pas’ed” his way through the preliminary introductions with his usual obtuse witticisms. I might add, with tactful brevity. The program then got under way with a set of songs by Cedric Smith. Of the two performers that evening. Mr. Smith certainly seemed to have the most promise. Although his guitar playing ranged from poor to sloppy, and his facial expressions reminded one of a grade nine student hamming through his first Shakespeare play, he demonstrated quite varied song repertoire, delving even into the light classical with Gilbert and Sullivan selection, (which, incidentally, he introduced with excellent reading of the preceeding dialogue). Judy Orban followed Mr. Smith at the end of the first set. Miss Orban’s set included only a few well known songs, nevertheless, she induced the audfor her, which in the ience into humming a “tutti” instance of a French Canadian song, proved to be delightfully effective. Miss Orban’s voice has a good range, and is of a quality that is suitable to folksinging, however, she seemed to lack that magic in-

gredient called polish. This deficiency showed itself particularly in her unaccompanied numbers. After Miss Or-ban completed her first group, she was joined by Cedric Smith, and the pair continued to intermission. As their reviewers have said, they do make an excellent duo. It is just as well, for it helps to make up for their lack of preparation. They began only a small majority of their phrases together, and on one or two occasions, Mr. Smith had to overpower his companion with volume to bring her back onto the correct beat. A second disconcerting habit which they exhibited and which is fairly common among the lesser artists involves taking a bow. I do wish that young artists would learn their repertoires well enough that they don’t have to stand around between numbers discussing what they are going to do next, apparently oblivious of the wildly applauding audience. If Judy Orban and Cedric Smith could only learn to receive the applause which they are miraculously getting, their whole performance would be better off. The second half took the same form as it had before intermission, but by this time the audience and performers had warmed to each other. Cedric Smith sang a set of protest songs during which his ability as a wit began to show itself. His was followed again by Judy Orban, who seemed to flounder a little, particularly after Mr. Smith’s improved performance. Save for the insertion of a bawdy song, she sang much the same type of material as before intermission. Mr. Smith again rejoined her for a final set as a duo, the most musical song of this final group being a Purcell madrigal which they sang unaccompanied. The thunderous ovation which this pair received indicates that the students of this University are definitely not “hand sitters.” This characteristic will prove to be a real boon for the reputation of this University in the theatrical field.

The University of Toronto symphony orchestra will be performing at the new Arts Theatre tomorrow evening at 8:00 p.m. The group, made up of 45 student musicians under the direction of Milton Barnes, is being sponsored here by the Music Department in co-operation with the Extension Department. The first work will be “An Outdoor Overture” by Arron Copland. Mr. Copland was born in Brooklyn in 1900 where he received his first piano and harmony’ lessons. From 1921 to 1924 he studied under Nadia Boulanger in Paris, returning to the United States in the latter year to earn his living as a hotel pianist. His compositions soon established him as a prominent American com-

poser. Shortly after 1935 Mr. Copland changed his originally austere mode of composition to a simpler and more popular style, in which the opening work was written. The second work on the program is the Chorale Prelude to the cantata Wachet Auf (Sleepers, wake!) by 8. S. Bach. Bach was born at Eisenach, Germany, in 16185 and died at the age of 65 at Leipzig, having sired 20

children (2 consecutive many more compositions.

wives)

Almost all of his last 30 years were spent in Leipzig at the St. Thomas Church and School where he composed an enormous number of cantatas, sometimes at the rate of one per week. Most of these marvelous works are based mainly upon Lutheran hymn tunes, Bach’s first musical loves. For the third work on the program, Milton Barnes has chosen the Suite for Orchestra by Ann Southam. Three movements of Miss Southam’s Suite were presented by the orchestra in December and an additional movement has been prepared since.

After intermission comes the major work of the evening, the symphony number 6 in C major by Schubert. Franz Peter Schubert was born in Vienna in 1797, and died there in 1828. His father had planned a teaching career for him, but Schubert preferred a bohemian type of existence, supported meagerly by, his devoted iittle circle of admirers.

The second meeting of ‘the U. of W. Engineering Society was held last Tuesday. George Newton, first vice-president, reported that the upcoming TECHNICAL SESSION to be held in the Bridgeport Casino should be a resounding success.

The Engineering Society decided that they will again present composite graduation photos to each engineering graduate. The cost of the photos (about $2.75 each) will be shared equally by both Engineering terms.

Award

The Provincial Chapter of the I.O.D.E. is offering a post-graduate scholarship of $1,000 in the Humanities. This ‘is being offered in 1963, tenable in the autumn of this year, in any Ontario university. Applicants must hold or will receive an Honors Degree from an Ontario university this year. Further information and application forms may be obtained from the Registrar’s Office.

It was not the money that this group objects to, but the manner in which the motion was worded and passed. It was also suggested that money matters automatically be given two readings by Students’ Council before any vote is taken. It was moved by the Engineering Society that “this Society essentially agrees with the report as given by the speaker .” The motion passed, nine votes in favour, no abstentions, and one opposed. The Engineering Society President, Eric Taylor, directed the Engineering representatives on Students’ Council to vote “yes” if ever a motion to rescind honorariums was presented at a Students’ Council meeting.

ing these honorariums. This group felt that “salary” might better describe the money received by these people.

News of the Theatre

Schubert’s characteristic compositional form was the German Lied (he wrote over six hundred of them), and his development of this type of song established for him his present musical position. The symphony number 6 (written in 18 17 or 18) is not a well known work, nor are most of Schubert’s 10 symphonies. Like the popular 5th, 7th, and 8th (the “unfinished”) symphonies, it demonstrates Schubert’s remarkable talent for producing beautiful, long lasting melodies .

Studio reservations may be made with Mr. P. Berg, in room 215 of the Arts Building.

Joe Plumber Administration officials of the K-W Hospital report that the manikin, which “Joe Plumber” removed from the hospital on Dec. 17th. and was holding for ransom (for two goodlooking nurses), is still missing. Hospital officials report that the manikin, used for teaching purposes9 will cost about $250 to replace. As a result of the disappearance of this manikin, they have announced that all university students have been barred from dances held at the nurses’ residence, until the manikin is returned. Unless the manikin is returned shortly, the hospital officials have decided to call in the local police on this matter. This could lead to a great deal of unpleasantness, since local magistrates are on record as saying that no distinction will be made for university students in handing out penalties for infringements of the law.

In Chekov’s ‘The Proposal,’ Terry Jones took the part of Ivan Vassilievich, Louise-Annette Magio as Natalyia, and Margaret Holmann as Stephanova. The actors in Stringberg’s ‘Miss Julie’ were Douglas McIntosh as Jean, Cynthia Chaple as Julie, and Georgina Mathews as Kristin.

Have you ever walked down Bricker St. with the intention of catching a trolley? If you have a fair idea of the P.U.C. timetable on King St., then the experience is neither novel nor exciting. But if you are guessing at trolley times, the short walk can be quite agonizing. “Should I burst into a run? Maybe if I had left the house fifteen seconds ealier . . . maybe if I walked a little faster . . . maybe I have lots of time or maybe I will .just miss it.” A hundred thoughts flash through the mind about the probability of your catching a trolley. At 120 ‘yards the Russian Roulette begins: each twenty yards with no trolley in sight is another empty chamber going CLICK! At 35 yards, if the trolley is close, the wires will sing so I break into a coronary inducing run only to see a ‘big green bullet from the sixth chamber go whizzing off down King St.

I was walking along King St. last Sunday morning at 3:30 a.m. following a set of tracks in the virgin snow. (I apologise for that word W.U.A.) when it dawned on me that I could either be following the prints of a dutiful member of the local constabulary or those of a frustrated break and entry man. The tracks would bend in at every store front then continue on up the street. Assuming now that it was a policeman, I began to reflect on the sad lot of those who pound a beat in sub-zero weather doing their thankless duty for a pittance. I was in tears when, from a darkened doorway, someone said “Hey you” right in my ear. I nearly . . . well, let me say that I had a fright. It was like opening a door and having a dog jump out at you, or consciously going through a red light at the last minute or forgetting a date. And to cap the whole business off, after he scared me out of my wits, he had the audacity to make an uncalled for remark about the meandering nature of MY tracks in the snow.

While much has been heard of the American Peace Corps, there has been little mention of the Canadian counterpart, Canadian Overseas Volunteers. The first volunteers for C.O.V. were recruited in the fall of 1960, and after orientation sessions at U. of T. they went overseas in the summer of 1961. The idea for the volunteers came from Dr. D. F. Faris, a Canadian working with UNICEF in India. It sparked Keith Spicer, then a U. of T. student (now on the staif at Ottawa University), to plan an organization whereby Canadian students could spend a year or two helping less fortunate people on the other side of the world. Mr. Spicer enlisted the help of Mr. F. C. Stinson, at that time P.C. member for York Centre riding in suburban Toronto, to found the Canadian Overseas Volunteers. The group was incorporated under Federal Charter, and early in 1961 volunteers already

recruited set about raising the money they would need for travel, insurance contingencies, and a re-establishment grant. Because of the nature of the organization (i.e. no government money-therefore no government strings) the volunteers are able to operate overseas without the stigma of political indoctrination which has hampered the American Peace Corps. After the first group had gone overseas, the same small circle that had organized the first group began recruiting volunteers and campaigning for money to send another group overseas the next year. Advancing exams and a broken hip suffered by Mr. Stinson required the re-call of one of the volunteers to take over the reigns of the fund raising campaign. Mr. Bill McWhinney was chosen to return home for this, he arrived in March, and stayed on the job until August, searching for money and

Mr. McWhinney was then asked to take over the position of executive secretary of C.U.S.O. (Canadian University Service Overseas) in Ottawa, a position he now holds, contributing greatly to the closer liason between the two organizations. The preliminary orientation of the 1963-64 group has been completed; selections from the U. of T. and the national selections made in Ottawa. Fund raising starts in earnest today, and it is expected that the volunteers will begin leaving Canada early in May or Iune. Because of the national effort this year a much greater diversification is possible, and people will be going to Jamaica and other Caribbean islands in addition to Africa, India, Ceylon, Malaya, Sarawak, and other areas of south-east Asia. The organization has not yet set up a training centre such as the Peace Corps in Puerto Rico, primarily because its numbers have not yet justified it, and because there has been no money available. As the organixation grows, a training centre will become a deiiuite necessity, because the larger organixation precludes personal contact between executive and volunteer. Such a training centre will probably consist of using facilities already available at some university, so that the group can gather for three or four weeks of intensive training before going overseas.

For the past three weeks I have been in a constant state of vacillation about my “newspaper career.” To the Chagrin of my thousands of readers I have decided to retire, to cut this column out as one would cut out a malignant tumor. The problem of saying goodbye to you has caused me untold grief. Should I press my hand tightly on the trigger of my inventive gun and spray everyone indiscriminately or should I be a hypocrite and bow out like a well-loved old patriarch? No matter which method I choose, I suppose I owe you an explanation as to why I am leaving. I could say that I’m pregnant but no one would belive me, so I had better tell the truth. The truth can be summed up in those odious little words, “academic pressure.” There are also other peripheral reasons such as disgust, self-integrity, indecision and a chronic lack of ability. writing this column has afforded me a great deal of pleasure in the past, but of late it has become something of a task. When reader I response was good I reveled in it and when it was poor I naturally blamed your lack of intelligence and understanding. Poor old George Crabbe took it in the neck far more than he deserved but there had to be a fall guy, since he has been dead for a good long time, he filled the bill admirably.

Let me say this in parting: humor and whimsy are an important part of life but they should always be in their proper perspective. Much as I have enjoyed punching out light froth every week it has been extremely detrimental to my ability to write seriously. Humor (attempted at least) has been my endeavour in writing this column and now the balance is unbalanced for me one way, and for the newspaper as a whole - the other way. One thing I do regret and which I never will forgive you for is this: in two years of writing this column I received exactly one letter per year and both were letters of disapprobation. I asked the printer if he could reproduce tear stains at the end of the column but he thought it impossible. Thank you for your attention readers; goodnight George Crabbe and good luck.

Twenty -six faculty members and, students gathered for the organizational meeting of the International Students Association. Pro Temp Chairman Toks Oshinowo told the meeting that the purpose of the group was to learn the Canadian way of life and to teach Canadian student more about the members’ native countries.

ONE IN THREE LIVE IN SIN our

Overseas

Correspondent

The University of -London student newspaper, Sennet, carried a story which stated that one of every three student couples living together were doing so in sin. ......Two hundred couples answered a questionnaire drawn up by a former psychology student. The results showed that 40 of the couples were married, 95 wer eengaged and waiting for degrees before marrying and the remaining 65 couples were living together,

The main reason reported for this was money. They found’ that the’ government grants for single students were more than was allowed to a mar&ed couple. When students on campus were interviewed by Sennet, they agreed that the report was right and that many students do live together.

With no league games last week, the U. of W. Warriors played two exhibition games, winning one and losing the other. On Jan. 25 the Warriors defeated the Brantford Friars by a score of 69-68. The game was played in the Telephone City.

The Friars were ahead at half time 34-30 but in the second half Bob Pando went on the rampage for 20 points. Pando ended up with 26 pts. Jerry Raphael scored 16 and Don Demko 11. For the Friars, ex-McMaster player Mike Schertzer, had 15 points while Kipp had 12 and Phillips 11. On Jan. 24 the K-W Mayfairs defeated the Warriors 61-58 at St. Louis Gym in Waterloo. It was the iirst time the Mayfairs have defeated the U. of W. squad. The teams have played eight games in the last four years. The Warriors won over the Mayfairs 70-60 earlier this year. The loss was the iirst exhibition loss for U. of W. this year.

by Dave Niio Gerry Hooper scored 4 points in the last half minute to give the U. of W. J.V. Pioneers a come-frombehind 67-65 victory over the Waterloo Luthern University Hawks in the Battle of Waterloo ’ game at Seagram Gym on Jan. 26. T&e Pioneers trailed for most of the game. Half time score was 38-37 for the Hawks, with 15 of the W.L.U. points being scored by Bob Eaton. Mike Whitney led the Pioneers in the first half with ‘11 points. In the second haif the lead changed hands frequently as both teams played a wide open brand of basketball. With a minute left in the game Turner intercepted a Pioneer pass and went in alone for the lay-up. His two points gave the Hawks a 65-63 edge. Seconds later Jerry Hooper broke up a W.U.C. play and tied the game on a break-away. He was fouled on the play and sank the two free throws for the 67-65 win. The Hawks were hovering around the, Pioneer’s basket but the final whistle ended their hopes of tieing the game. I From The Floor: Bob Eaton led both teams in points with 21. Turner followed with 11 while John Lewis dropped in 8. Gary Cuff and Ed Ochiena, a Toronto Argonaut footballer, split 14 points evenly. For U. of W., Gerry Hooper was high man with 19 points, Bob Balahura had 18, Mike Whitney-13, Paul Lawrence-9. Defensively, Balahura and Whitney were Pioneer standouts. 1 The Pioneers’ next game is tonight against the Western Colts in London. Tomorrow they play the Hawks at Waterloo Collegiate.
