K’RAEM.ER’-NEM( S. C. tRESIDEtTT Jim Kraemer, Arts I, defeated Doug Macintosh, Arts III, for the presidency of the 1963-64 Students’ Council in the closest race ever held here. Out of a possible 1,560 student votes, only 870, or X8%, were cast. Kraemer received 438 votes, or 53.9%; Macintosh received 374 votes, or 47.1%. Almost 7% of the ballots cast were spoiled and were not recorded. Kraemer is a first year Arts student majoring in Geography and is a graduate of Eastwood Collegiate in Kitchener where he received the two highest awards for student leadership. He offered the following statement to The Coryphaeus: “Naturally I am very pleased with the outcome of this election. I consider the students of this University as having bestowed upon me a great honor and I sincerely thank all of them for their support. “I would like to thank Doug Macintosh for the good sportsmanship he has shown during the election and, I know, if he is on campus next year, the co-operation between the two of us will continue as in the past. “I realize that the position of President is one of great responsibility, and I shall do my best to meet this responsibility and to represent the best interests of all students in the forthcoming year.” The first balloting for the presidency was held on campus on March 13, but in order for all the out-term Engineering ballots to be received and recorded, the counting was held last night. .

The surprising element of the election was the close race between the two candidates. At the final count they were separated by only 64 votes or 7.8 % of the votes counted. Another interesting factor was the high proportion of spoiled ballots cast in the St. Jerome’s poll. Of a total of 79 ballots cast there, 14, or 17.7% were spoiled. The total number of spoiled ballots was 58 or 6.770. The remaining executive positions on Council, treasurer and secretary, are to be filled at the last meeting of Council, April 22, from students who submitted applications. NFCUS chairman, Social Committee chairman and Board of Publications chairman will be filled in a similar manner.

Over-Whelming Vote - 87. For Campus Health Centre Students voted over-whelmingly for a Campus Health Centre to provide emergency and general first aid. Of 848 ballots cast 746 were in favor of a Centre; this was 87.9% of the total vote. On the question of a fee (Voters were asked whether they were prepared to pay for this service not in excess of $5.00) 559, or 67.3% were in favor. 272, or 32.7% of the voters were against any fee. Sid Black, Health Service Committee chairman said that he had expected a larger percentage to be against the fee, but he added, “I was very pleased with the students’ response to this important question.” Black, who has been pursuing this question of a Health Centre for over six months through the e&torialpages of The Coryphaeus, will now prepare a plan to be submitted to the S.C. on April 22. If the plan and the accompanying fee schedule is accepted by the S.C. and the administration, who have promised to provide the capital expenditure and part of the operating capital for the Centre, it will go into effect Sept., 1963. Black said, “Now that the students have definitely shown the Council and the Administration that they want a plan and will support it, it is reasonable to suggest that we will have an operating Centre with a full or part-time Registered Nurse early in Sept.” The following Question 1: No. % Question

The RCMP on The Canadian Campus -
I-Iarvison Explains Their Presence By Roger McAfee Canadian University Press Copyright, 1963. OTTAWA (CUP) The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are interested in activities on Canadian campuses because the communists are also interested, says RCMP Commissioner C. W. Harvison. In an Canadian University Press interview the RCMP’s top man outlined the force’s policy toward university investigation and some of the problems and considerations in maintaining internal security against communism. “The communists themselves point to what they hope to achieve on the university campus,” Harvison said. “In one of their publications one is able to read that the university is ‘the training ground for bourgeois leadership,’ and ‘offers a unique opportunity for valuable Party work, here is the centre and source of the bourgeois apology for capitalism’.” From the same publication we have ‘secondly we must recognize that since students are only at universities for three or four years and since the period of campus work each year is not more than six months, the problem of developing leadership is always acute’. “While there are some who say this statement refers to open political activity, those of us who know the way communists work, are satisfied it means communist work in its entirety, and this includes their underground movement,” Harvison said. In December, 1963, the Young Communist League of Canada, the party’s youth arm, led by the son of a well-known communist, published a phamphlet containing the following: “We (the League) fit in right where the action is taking place: in the high schools, and universities; in debates taking place at youth clubs, the disarmament groups and the public actions that go on.” however, to The same phamphlet says, “It would be a mistake, refuse to understand the possibilities that exist among students. We should have a good look at how we do work among students. Not only in the nuclear disarmament groups they are in, but also social science groups, currents clubs, etc.” “Even the high schools are targets for communist activities, as is seen from their own literature,” Harvison said. “It doesn’t matter where they can influence action. It is important that they lay the ground work today for communist leadership of tomorrow.” President,
“University students are naturally curious. At this age one finds a great deal of idealism and a strong sense of social morality. There are certain abuses in our system which the student may think communism will cure, if he gets only one side of the picture,” the commissioner said. Is a university-trained man more useful to the communists than the non-university man? Emphatically yes, says Harvison. Information that communists want, can only come from those who have training’ and access to the information, he said. “It is obvious that those with access have attained the position to be able to get information, on the basis of their knowledge and training.” This type of person almost invariably has a university degree. A CUP check of the Royal Commission Report on Espionage, published in 1964, shows 10 of the 16 Canadians identified as Soviet agents in the Gouzenk case, were specifically listed as having university degrees. Among the spies were three army and two RCAF officers, one naval officer, the head of a section at the Bank of Canada, two scientists at the national research council, two university scientists, four civil servants and the assistant registrar at the U.K. High Commission office. With such a high proportion of university graduates involved in such instances, it is obvious the communist effort to recruit scientists and government leaders while they are students, has been at least partially successful, Harvison said. “Another aspect of university interest on the part of the RCMP is where it is known or suspected that foreign intelligence offlcers are attempting to recruit students to work for Russia. “This is a subject into which I cannot go into detail, but this sort of thing is not unknown in Canada and must receive serious attention by us,” Harvison said. :+The commissioner outlined some aspects of RCMP investigation. “The politics of an individual, per se, are of no interest to us and we certainly are not interested in a man’s religion,” he said. “We are interested in ALL types of personal behaviour, political or
not, which would indicate that he is, or is not, a person who can be properly employed by a government under sensitive circumstances.” “Once all possible inquiries have been made, the matter is reported to headquarters in Ottawa. The information obtained on an individual is analyzed by men with up to 30 years and more experience in this field,” the commissioner said. “This results in a factual and evaluated report being sent to the department of government. It is the responsibility of that department to decide whether, on the facts presented, a person is suited to the type of employment involved. “Indeed, the RCMP refused to accept any more responsibility in this area. It is felt that the decision as to whether an individual should be employed or not is one for the civilian head of agovernment branch, and in this way the rights of the individual can be protected and not always seen in the light of the police point of view, “In the university community, inquiries we make into a student’s background are often directed at prof essors. “We think there are no more responsible persons than university professors and it would be a sad day when the security program of this country could not rely on their supsaid. port,” the commissioner “It should be clearly understood that we are not dealing with an ordinary political party in the Communist Party of Canada (CPC), but with a part of an International Communist Movement, directed by the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). “Its objective has remained unchanged from that laid down by Lenin - namely the overthrow of the free enterprise system and the establishment of Communism throughout the world. “The Canadian party slavishly follows communist theory and practice laid down in Moscow. This has been a feature of the party since it was established in Canada in 1921, under the guidance, even at that time, of foreign communists. “The link between the Canadian party and the Soviet Union can easily
be shown. “Prominent Canadian communists have regular meetings with counterparts in Russia, and attend communist conferences which lay down international policy. “Indeed, Tim Buck and Leslie Morris have both been to Russia, within the past year and Tim Buck has been to Peking since then. “Other links are: l the Canadian party follows, in detail, on a national basis, the views held by the CPSU on an international basis - advocation of peace, nuclear disarmament, antimonopoly capitalism, anti-colonialism and anti-imperialism, among other things, but always from the Soviet point of view; l Norman Freid, a Canadian communist, serves on the editorial board of the communist theoritical publication, The World Marxist Review, and lives at the publication’s permanent headquarters in Prague, Czechoslovakia. l Another Canadian, John Weir, represents the Canadian Tribune in Moscow. Still another Canadian, Bert Whyte, represents the same : paper in Peking. Frank and Libby Park are the Canadian party’s new envoys in Havanna, Cuba. l Tom Jaka, a young Canadian, is an executive member of the Communist - dominated World Federation of Democratic Youth. Pearl Wedrow, another Canadian communist from Vancouver, is in the secretariat of the -World Federation of Trade Unions. “NO one need be disillusioned as to the purpose of the Canadian Communist Party,” Harvison said. “It takes its direction from Lenin who wrote: ‘the bourgeois parliaments which constitute one of the most important instruments of the bourgeois state machinery, cannot be won over by the proletariat any more than the bourgeois order in general. The task of the proletariat in destroying the entire machinery of the bourgeois state, including all parliamentary institutions.’ “Whatever use the communists make of the democratic system,” commissioner Harvison said, “it is for the purpose of destroying that same system and substituting one which is completely totalitarian and which we see today in Russia and other communist - dominated countries. What they want to set up is the Soviet Socialist Republic of Canada.” “Under these circumstances it _ is very clear to me that such an organl
ization is subversive in intent. Its aim is clearly the destruction of our present political system for the purpose of setting up a one-party government, by whatever means possible,” Harvison stated. “Because they know there is little hope of becoming the government of Canada through normal parliamentary means, Canadian communists have found it necessary to infiltrate organizations that can be used by them to influence opinion. “They are fully aware that there is a great mistrust of communists in this country, hence they have adopted the ‘united front’ tactic. This simply means they will go along with any organization which they think will serve their purpose. “They may do this with known support or they will do it by infiltrating unknown communists who will pursue communist interests within the organization. There are about 3,500 card-carrying communist party members in Canada today. But these are not our main source of concern,” Harvison said. “A very important segment of the party is not card-carrying as this would make it known to the public. This group forms what the communist themselves term their ‘underground movement .’ These people are able, because of this anonimity, to get into organizations and influence opinion. “A self -proclaimed communist in the. university does not worry us too much. One is on guard against any statements they make, as their politics are well known. However, these %nderground” agents who are not known as communists can do the damage. People are not on guard and may be taken in by such a man. * “These underground members are to be found in all phases of society, but more often than not, at the professional level. They are important to the party because it is only through such members they are able to penetrate the more important spheres of influence.” In a book, “Paradoxes of Freedom” a noted American expert on communism, Sydney Hook said “Their chief task is to infiltrate into key sensitive and influential posts in government, trade unions, co-operative and peace movements, in order to do the bidding of the Kremlin on appropriate occasions.” “In Canada we are not sure of the exact number of these underground members, therefore an accurate estimate of true communist strength is difficult,” Harvison said. Does a country of the relative tm-
importance of Canada really need a security force to guard against communist infiltration and espionage? Yes, says Harvison. “Canada is a partner in collective defence pacts, such as NATO. In such arrangements, defence secrets of all countries are pooled and each member has access to all of them. Hence, a security leak in Canada could disclose the secret defence plans of every other member of the alliance,” the commissioner said. “This is one of the main reasons for security checks on persons being considered for government jobs.” The RCMP are as concerned with the far right as well as the far left, the commissioner said, “There have- been signs of a form of Naziism raising its head in Canada and it is our job as a security force to keep abreast of this as well as communism. “There is an extreme right wing in this country which is so anti-communist that it becomes a danger in itself. Members see communists at every turn in the road. There is no room in their minds for the radical or for the honest, dissenting opinion. “Under these circumstances, people hre indiscriminately labelled communist. A dissenting view, which happens to be consistent with the official communist line at the time, does not make a man a communist. “Canadians must try to understand the purpose of communism. The communists have written libraries of their plans, yet there is apparently still some doubt in some places as to what they really intend for the world. “It has often been said that had we read “Mein Kampf,” with any seriousness, we would have known what Hitler intended for the world. The communists have written plenty and there’s no doubt of their intention. “It is necessary for the citizen to be alert to communist intentions. This, with a knowledge of how communists work, will indicate to him whether or not a person is consistently working for a communism. If this takes place over a long period of time, it might then, and only then, be safe for him to arrive at a conclusion. The security service would like the public to feel free to come forward with any information which they thing is, or can be, subversive in nature,” the commissioner said. Commissioner Harvison commented on recent criticism of the role of the RCMP on Canadian campuses. “It is the job of the RCMP to know where subversion is, and attack espionage wherever it is found. If we think it is found on the university campuses, we have to go there.” “Some of the criticism arises from the fact that the communist party itself is very interested in promoting anti-communist feelings. “Indeed, the International Communist Conference in Prague last summer was key-noted by a speech on how to fight anti-communism from William Kashtan, a very prominent Canadian Communist, in fact, a member of the national committee. “It was only a short ime after his return that we began to see increase criticism aimed at the RCMP. “The force has more than 40 years experience in combating communism. it is conscious of its responsibilities in a country which prides itself on the democratic process. “We are ever conscious of a person’s rights to express a dissenting opinion with being considered disloyal. We are conscious of the rights of the radical. “1 would suggest, however, that it is only those who have made a careful study of this problem, such as the various security services, that can differentiate between the radical or dissenter and the conspirator,” commissioner Harvison concluded.

Message
Yet the exterior of the University belies this interior horror. The landscaping is blending with the buildings so aptly that it eliminates much of the transient appearance. The buildings are acquiring a look of permanence. The University is rapidly fitting into its landscape, complimenting rather than clashing or jarring with its setting. The
interiors, not so often under the public eye, take a second place in decor and style. One of the last places that I expected to see scrimping and-saving, though, was the gallery of the Theatre of the Arts. The Theatre is magnificent, it is a gem on this campus; yet it is placed in a setting of cast concrete. The Theatre foyer is designed as a gallery, for the display of paintings. As it is now it can only detract from whatever is offered. The regular pattern of the block walls do nothing but detract from any painting or from any sculpture that may be shown there. As a foyer to the new Theatre, this rough concrete cube only detracts from the elegant opulence of the interior. Together they offer an interesting comparison between the best and worst of contemporary design on this campus.’ One of the problems is money. Given time, and money, this Theatre.and gallery will develop to be one of the focal spots of this campus. Proper wall covering costs money, though, so do carpets -and benches and other accessories for the Theatre. Where will the University find the money? When will it find enough money to do the job properly? Unless there is some specific donation for this purpose, it may remain as is for years. The University may decide, as a showplace of the campus, that the Theatre of the Arts should be completed in its entirety as soon as possible. It could quite easily become one of the outstanding showplaces of this district. Perhaps, given time, that huge brick wall at the rear of the Theatre might be broken up with a flash of color and pattern. One such example is the Student Union Building at the University of British Columbia, which features a modernistic mural set against a brick background. The patterns represent the different faculties of the University in a contemporary design.
At a special meeting of Students’ Council on March 13, student fees were set at $16.00 per registration for Arts, Science and Pre-Engineering students and $8.00 per registration for Engineers. S.C. will recommend to the Board of Governors the collection of the above fees commencing Sept. 1963. These are non-athletic fees. The Council had to make changes in the original proposed fee structure of $15.00 and $8.50 respectively, when it was brought to their attention that commencing in September all faculties would operate on the same 15 week-term period S.C. President, John Braun, expressed his surprise that he and other council members did not discover this until three days after the original schedule was passed and then rem fused by Administration. When Braun presented the fee schedule to Admini&ration he was informed that they were out of line because of the new 15 week term. Council went through the entire budget and made corrections and finally accepted the corrected proposed budget which will be recommended to the 1963-64 Students’ Council for their guidance. The revenue received by S.C. will be reduced by $87.70 in in 1963-64 based on the following projected registrations: 492 319 48 1893

This, in itself, is one of the problems of selecting anything to display on a patterned wall of brick or concrete block. The pattern of the wall must complement, or at least not clash with, the nature of the exhibit. The flowing design of most art does clash with the rectangular pattern of our gallery, it destroys the whole effect of the display. As a gallery, as well as a foyer to the Theatre, the background should be neutral and bland, ao the displays stand out to attract one’s attention. Anything less does not make use of the full potential of the gallery, nor of the displays therein. For the sake of the money already invested in the Theatre and gallery, it should be completed to its full potential. The setting for art should not be coarse concrete walls.

The most barren aspect of this University is the long unbroken stretches of nothingness. Sterile corridors almost disappear into the distance, concrete blocks are repeated with a diabolical uniformity and persistence that rivals the Chinese water torture. The classrooms are concrete shells filled with ducts and pipes, functional as an air-raid shelter and as pleasant as a prison cell.

As yau must well realize, the rapid expansion of the University of Waterloo has made it necessary for the students to make numerous organizational changes and re-adjustments. In addition, our program of activities has been greatly increased. To continue and carry out the many projects began this year is one of the challenges for the new Council. The task will require the sacrifice of much leisure time. During this past year there have been many objections to Council’s actions. At times some protest has been justifiable; however, there is little doubt that despite our mistakes i or, rather, because have learned a great deal.

September 1963
Yesterday, the students of this University indicated by the over-whelming vote of 87.9% that they wished a Campus Health Centre to provide general and emergency first-aid. After a somewhat bitter struggle at times to provide a Centre by using this page, we are pleased to see the proof before us as the Students make known their desire to see an needed improvement in this University Community. This majority referendum now allows the Health Service Committee to investigate and suggest a practical plan to the Council when it meets for its last session this year on April 22. Some of the problems facing the Committee will be: l Who will pay the initial cost to establishing the Centre? (The Administration has indicated that they are prepared to do this). l What equipment will be needed and to what extent will service be provided? (Aspirins to B andaids?) @ Should a Registered Nurse be available full she also supervise the ’ or part-time ? Could present paper work handled by the Business office with regards to the Student Insurance Plan? Q Can this Centre be open the year ‘round? (There is no reason why it can’t be, since
there are both students and faculty here throughout the year). l To what extent shall the student and Administration share the costs of operating the Centre? (The Administration have indicated they are prepared to pay an equitable amount towards the operating capital so that the service is available to all University personnel). We could go on with the possibilities and the factors that need investigation before a practical and equitable plan and administration is reached by the Committee and presented to Council. We believe that we can safely predict that once the Centre Plan is accepted and is in operation, it would not be too long (a year or two . . ) before the servic.e of a visiting Doctor will be available on campus and in the Centre. We thank the students for supporting the question of Health Services. And we realize that the Council, when it meets during April, will deliberate and bring forth a plan that can be readily adopted and put into operation so that the students will have this vital service available in September, 1963. And we are sure it will grow with the University. Sid Black, Editor.
“The Miser” On March 14 and 15 the Drama Council of this university presented “The Miser.” This production was sponsored by the Students’ Council and drew a total of 350, losing approx. $500. While much of the fault of the failure lies with the student body for not supporting this excellent production - for it was close to professional quality - it is also the fault of both the S.C. and the Drama Council. On January 28, the S.C. voted to support the production to a maximum of $1000. The plans in terms of advertising presented at that time by the D.C. president, Brian Drown, were nebulous to say the least. There were no signs posted in the University buildings until the first week of March and these
LETTERS Irregularities How fair are the elections held at this school? Reasonably so, however, anyone interested in voting twice could easily have done so. In fact, the writers easily did so, even voting twice at the same polling station, with the same officer present. One of the writers voted in the morning and had his student identification card punched by the returning officer at the engineering foyer poll. He then obtained another student identity card from the secretary in the Registrar’s office, giving her a wrong student identity number and only using his real name because she knows his name. The card was obtained very easily, without any check being made on the identity or the writer. In fact, several other people obtained cards at the same time, because they had forgotten theirs and wanted to vote. With this second card one of the writers voted at the Physics building polling station and
signs were hand done, not printed. This paper received no news material or promotions frgm the DC. until March 4. The advertising directed to the student body was extremely inadequate. Although, Dr. Dust, the play’s director, claims some type of advertising or. promotion in the local paper, on local stations and in a Toronto newspaper, it is rather difficult to understand how this was to reach the some 1,800 people in this university community. We would hope in future that when the S.C. undertakes to sponsor such a venture they would undertake to more fully supervise its direction, especially in terms of advertising.

In order that the second ballot would not be counted and in this way defeat the democratic purposes of the election each ballot was marked ‘2nd ballot’, and signed by both writers. It can be seen though, that a good percentage of the student body could have voted twice by simply obtaining identity cards from the Registrar’s office. Even this does not limit the number of votes that anyone interested enough could cast. It seems to be only limited by the number of cards a student could borrow from others and how many of the past years’ stun dent cards, which are very similar in style to this years, he has saved. While this is not an indictment of anyone connected with the management of this election, it seems obvious

that our system must be changed to rule out the possibility of an unscrupulous group gaining an advan/ tage by unfair means. While the system of national and provincial elections is by. no means perfect, we might consider copying some of its features. Each student should be assigned to a poll, Engineers in the Engineering building, Arts students in the Arts building and so forth. Then about two weeks before the elections, votors lists, obtained from the Registrar’s office on a faculty basis, should be posted and anyone who’s name is ommitted can have their name placed on the list. On election day each student votes at his or her poll and as they vote their name is crossed off the voters list. Also the polls should be staffed by people who know a majority of the students voting at their poll. Students should be required to identify
WITH THIS, THE FINAL EDITION THIS TERM OF YOUR BELOVED CORYPHAEUS, I TAKE TIME OUT TO THANK SINCERELY THE FEW STUDENTS WHO FOUND TIME NOT ONLY TO CRITICISE THE PAPER, BUT ALSO TO CONTRIBUTE TO IT. I WOULD BE UNTRUTHFUL TO SUGGEST THAT THE PAPER HAS BEEN OR CONTAINED EVERYTHING IT SHOULD HAVE, FOR THIS HAS BEEN DEPENDENT ON THE CONTRIBUTION FROM STUDENTS AND FACULTY ON CAMPUS, AND THESE ARE STILL FORTHCOMING. THE PAPER HAS GROWN PHYSICALLY THIS PAST TERM AND WITH THIS EDITION REACHES THE HEIGHTS WITH EIGHT PAGES. I SINCERELY HOPE IT WILL CONTINUE TO GROW AND ADD TO ITS MERITS, NOT ONLY IN SIZE, BUT IN CAMPUS COVERAGE. THIS OF COURSE, CAN ONLY BE DONE THROUGH USE OF AN ADEQUATE STAFF. AND YOU AS STUDENTS MUST PROVIDE THIS STAFF. IF YOU DO NOT, ONLY YOU ARE TO BLAME FOR ANY ERRORS, OMMTSSIONS, OR MISCALCULATED’ JUDGEMENTS IN THE CORYPHAEUS. FOR YOU CAN ONLY POINT WITH PRIDE TO YOUR CAMPUS PAPER, IF YOU SUPPORT IT. AND IF YOU DO NOT, IT IS YOU, THE STUDENTS OF THIS UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY, THAT SUFFER.

Having read the application form (with accompanying brochure) to a certain newly built residence on campus, I was gratified to learn that at long last a church college, and mind you, a church college on our campus, has discovered the Purpose, spelled with a capital P.

Visualize how happy mothers will be when they know that they can send their son or daughter to a university where they will have the opportunity to be subjected to daily chapel and weekly religious seminars. All these bonuses are received at no extra cost and are obtained merely by signing a contract. However, there is a minor disadvantage. Suppose a student did not want these bonuses, and in fact refused to have anything to do with them, and on top of it all, even had the audacity to object to the Purpose, spelled with a. cap P. Concerning this supposition the application form strongly implies that the student does not obtain room and board. I feel that this displays a religious intolerance, inconsistent with the policy of the United church and a narrowness incongruent with the spirit of the University. M. D. Johnson, Science L

The Sons of Freedom Doukhobors Under the leadership of VERIGIN, 8,000 Doukhobors came to Canada. From Peter’s GER, the Freedomites accepted they must depart from Canada the prophet, breaking the law
the prophet PETER THE LORDLY fled from Czarist Russia in 1899, and son and successor PETER THE PURthe policy that God had willed that through the jails. To the followers of i became a sacred duty.
In obedience to their current prophet, a bearded Ukranian wanderer and Russian Displaced Person named STEFAN SAVELIEVICH SOROKIN, they gave Sorokin $97,000 of their communal savmgs a decade ago and sent him to South America to buy land for a new communal home. They continued to send money to him, even though they knew he was living in relative luxury, 8,000 miles away, has paid only a few brief visits to Canada since his departure, and has done nothing to prepare for their second mass journey into exile.

OF FREEDOM
On March 6, 1962, the Sons of Freedom, a sect of the Doukhobors dynamited a power pylon off a cliff and into Kootenay Lake. As a result, a widespread power failure laid off 900 Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company workers, forced the closing of 25 H. W. Herridge, N.D.P., M.P. for schools, and prompted Kootenay West, to declare in Ottawa that affairs were nearing “the stage of civil war.”

Feature
The Doukhobor religion is a simple one. They believe in the capacity of every man to know the Spirit of God within him and it is the duty of every man to follow the guidance of that Spirit through all his life. They follow the Bible, especially the New Testament closely, and pass their psalms and hymns down from generation to generation.
TAKING
In the words of a Doukhobor to whom English is a second language, this is a statement of their basic testament. “A Doukhobor is one who feels God is inside, the God of love. When he gets that understanding that God is in him, he progresses spiritually. His first fight is the fight within himself. . . .”
Story bY
Hennie
Smid
When he gets over that problem he has to work on himself. But it’s very very deep. When he finds out that the God is inside of him, when he finds this Spirit is in him, he cannot use physical violence in his wrestle with the outside. The life of a Doukhobor should witness brotherly love to all people, all over the world. That life should be led in peace. In this way is built the Kingdom of God on earth which leads to eternal life and eternal joy.”
Last April, 67 leaders, all members or former members of the 52 man Fraternal Council controlling the 2,800 member Son of Freedom sect were convicted on charges of “conspiring to commit acts of violence in order to intimidate the Parliament of Canada . . . The Specifically they were accused of Legislature of British Columbia.” masterminding a Freedomite campaign of terror against the nation, by ordering the bombing and burning of government buildings, railways, highways and power lines. All face prison terms of up to fourteen years in Federal Mountain Prison at Agassiz, British Columbia.
Yet in answer to these inner and outer voices - to the urgings of the God within and the hints and orders of the leaders without the Sons of Freedom have made the destruction of property a part of their way of life. The question of what to do about the Doukhobors has occupied the attention of every government of British Columbia since 1909, when the first wave of them came from Saskatchewan to settle in the west coast province. The present government has no solution to the problem. No doubt, most of all, they would like to see a mass exodus of the Sons of Freedom to another country. But it is unlikely that any foreign country will co-operate in the matter. It seems obvio& that the Sons of Freedom will not return to Russia for as early as 1906, Stolypin, the Czar’s foreign minister, refused them permission to return.
Most of the members of the Doukhobor Sons of Freedom Sect left the Freedomite stronghold Krestova (The Place of Christ), three mile from Nelson, B.C. on September 2, 1962, on a 365 miles march to Mountain Prison at Agassiz, with the hope of joining their menfolk there. Mrs. FANNY STORGOFF, “BIG FANNY”, led the march. Many had burned their homes before leaving the village. ...... The recent attention focussed on the Sons of Freedom has obscured the fact that the sect is only a small minority group of the Doukhobors. The 10,000 Orthodox and Independent Doukhobors have long since renounced the nude parades and the burnings of houses, barns, schools, and meeting halls. * About 5,000 belong to the Society of Independents and have come fully to terms with the Canadian Society. They own their land and businesses and often send their childrent to university. There are about 5,000 Orthodox Doukhobors in the province. These are members of the Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ (U.S.C.C.) and most of them live at Grand Forkes, Passmore, Pass Creek, and Brilliant. Their leader, JOHN J. VERIGIN, is a descendant of PETER VERIGIN who led the Doukhobors out of Russia. In theory, they subscribe to all the traditional beliefs, including communal living, pacificism, a divine Doukhobor leader and direct communication with God (which in their faith removes the need for a government). In practice, though, the great majority of U.S.C.C. members have made compromises. They pay taxes, send their children to school, deal with government reasonably and do not engage in histrionics like stripping, burning, or marching to Agassiz. The other Doukhobors’ 2,800 members of the radical sect called the Sons of Freedom have come to no accommodation with their country or their times. They still consider themselves a special breed of Christian Anarchists. The sect’s official name is the Christian Brotherhood of Reformed Doukhobors. Normally, the Sons operaz under a 52 member Fraternal Council of Elders but in the past year, many of these members have been arrested and the council has been dissolved. At the present the sect is without authoritative leadership.

The Sons of Freedom might be put on reservations under the Provincial government or they might be uprooted and set down in the northern part of the province. Both of these suggestions for humanitarian and legal reasons are objectionable.

A suggestion most likely to succeed is that over the years the Sons will integrate with the rest of the society. The other Doukhobors have done this even though all of them were just as radical as the Sons are when they first arrived in Canada.

The students of this University have at times been accused of lacking school spirit. If the attendance at Thursday and Friday nights’ production of the ‘Miser’ was any indication of the spirit existing at this school, school spirit is not lacking, it is non-existent. The production was excellent, the actors were of almost professional quality, the play was interesting and funny, and the audience was conspicuous by its absence. A total of 350 people saw both nights’ show. One cannot say the play was not advertised. It was announced over -the local radio and TV stations, written up in the K-W Record, and mentioned in the Globe and Mail, as well as being announced in classes by several instructors connected with the English Department. The next excuse that comes to mind is examinations. However, how many students on this campus can honestly say they studied last Friday night? Surely it is not too much

Dr. A. I. Dust, director of the play says he was very disappointed in the lack of enthusiasm on the part of the student body. He says that according to several people who attended, the play was of almost professional quality and the actors were excellent. The actors worked very hard and gave up much of their time and were disappointed their efforts were not better rewarded. Dr. Dust blames the poor attendance on a general lack of appreciation for drama among the students. “All the students are interested in is sports, and while they are willing to spend a dollar to see a football game, they are not willing to

Alumni Assoc. Formed. . . The K-W Chapter of the U. of W. Alumni Association was formed at a meeting held on March 15. The following provisional executive was elected: President, Karl Reickert; Vice-President, Doug Evans; Treasurer, Julia Morton, Secretary, Walter Hill; Assistant Secretary, Jim Kohli; Chairman, Constitution Committee, Jim Ronback; Chairman, Social Committee, Beth Koch; Chairman, Membership Committee, Mel Huth. It was the feeling of those present at the meeting that a National Alumni Association of the U. of W. should be formed in the near future. As the University grows, this body would then be broken down into Chapters located in areas which have a high concentration of graduates. A few of many ideas and plans put forward at this meeting are: The Alumni will invite the 1963 graduates, their friends, and families to a luncheon after Convocation. The Coryphaeus should available to all Alumni. Lists of fellow’ graduates supplied to each Alumni.

It is unfortunate that people who are here to get an education should ignore one of the most important aspects of an education, the fine arts. Of what use is a degree, be it in Arts, Science, or Engineering, if one has no appreciation of the finer things in life? One must learn to appreciate the theatre, or music, or painting ealy ln life rather than waiting until after graduation. It is unfortunate that the average student, when given the opportunity to see a well produced play for only one dollar will casually shrug his shoulders and ignore the opportunity. Until the students of this University learn to appreciate and support the efforts of a few of their fellow students, school spirit will be sadly lacking, and we cannot hope to build a wellfunctioning student community.

Eng. Pres. Looks Ahead( To Busy Summer The A-stream Engineering students will spend their first summer in the classrooms, which will be quite a challenge. To study in the warm summer day is nothing to be desired; however, the Engineering Society has planned quite a program to break the monotony. For the first time, the Society is holding a banquet to which every Engineering student and faculty member is invited. “ENGINEERING NITE ‘63” will be held in honour of Dr. D. T. Wright who, through his efforts, has made the University of Waterloo one of the top Canadian Engineering schools. A presentation will be made to the past presidents of the Engineering Society for the services they have performed during their term of office. The banquet is scheduled for May 16 at Bingeman Park Lodge. Another major event coming soon is the Annual Semi-Formal Dance, which has proven su&essful during the years. William Fines has informed me that Bingeman Park Lodge has been made available and Harvey Smith will entertain us into the early hours on _June 2 1st. Also tentative plans have been made for a record hop on April 26, and dances with an orchestra on May 3rd, May 26th, and July 12th. Once agin, elections for the Engineering Society in view.

The 1963 Canadian Intercollegiate Debating Champion ship has been won by Charles Dalfen and Howard Golden of McGill University. The debates; sponsored by NFCUS, were held in Ottawa. In winning the title, the McGill men beat the University of Alberta and St. Dunstan’s University of Charlottetown, P.E.I. Each of the three teams had won their regional titles. The topic for the final debates was “Resolved that the space race was beneficial to humanity.” McGill opposed the resolution. With the first edition of Campus Canada sold .out in. most university book stores (the U of W is an exception), the editors are already preparing for the fall edition which is expected. to hit the stands on October 1. Contributions are being solicited now and must, be submitted to the editor at Brock Hall, University of British Columbia, Vancouver 3, B.C. Articles of ,opinion, features, short stories, poems, photos, cartoons and , sketches are wanted. . University of Montreal students are agitating to have the name of the street on which the university fronts changed. It’s called Maplewood Avenue and the students think that a French name would be more appropriate. One wag has suggested Avenue des MisErables. A winner has been declared in the University of Toronto’s much heralded “Sullivan Games.” This was the contest open to all co-eds in which the (prize was a date with the President Of 1All The Students, Jordan Sullivan. The winning “50 words or less’ entry was from a pretty fourth year student. Patty Hamilton. A sample of the entries follows: “Rumour hath it that capsule relationships aren’t particularly satisfying and that Toronto girls aren’t ‘warm for your form”’ “I would like to run my fingers through your curly locks and tickle your dimples.” “My measurement are 40-(and with a girdle) 28-36.” At the University of British Columbia a “Society for Covering Naked Stues” has been formed. Headed by a man known only as Ralph the Mystery Picket, they zpicketed and clothed a group of nude granite maidens on the UBC campus recently. Ralph claimed “We are not prudes, . . . but -we’re thinking of statues too, exposed to rain and snow and sleet andfog and wind and clouds . . . and everything.” Twelve University of Western Ontario students recently won “I beat Bobby Kennedy” ribbons in a fifty mile walkathon by covering the distance in less than the seventeen hours and fifty minutes that it took the U.S. attorney general to cover the distance. The fastest time was chalked up by Dave Prokop, sports editor of the Western Gazette and a -marathon runner who was timed in just seven hours. Sixty-five students entered the walkathon including six co-eds, none of whom finished. Another campus fad has reached Canada - laundronauting. In this feat of endurance, the prospective laundronaut climbs inside a coin operated dryer at his favourite coin laundry and gives things a whirl. UBC student Clayton Moore, who claims the current Canadian record called it quits after 25 spins, but down in California some dizzy nut went 2,000 revolutions. Well, this is yours truly’s last column for The CORYPHAEUS and in signing off, it is perhaps appropriate to review the outstanding campus people and events. across Canada during 1962-63.
