Confers Over one hundred students from universities in Ontario, Quebec, and Western New York State met in Todd Union at the University of Rochester on November 6th and 7th. Three delegates from the University of Waterloo, Pat Hergott, Paul Gerster and Dave Young, attended this regional conference of the Association of College Unions. Doctor Vincent Nowlis, psychology professor at the University of Rochester set the theme of the conference in his opening address on the Friday evening “Student-Faculty Relations.” He askof the ed, “Is it the responsibility Union to promote better StudentFaculty relationships?”

The Ballroom will be on the fourth floor and has a capacity of 600 for meals and 800 for meetings. Also, there are six adjoining banquet rooms which can seat an additional 260 people. Thus, when completed, this hotel will have facilities large enough to hold student and faculty formal dances. Around the outside of the ballroom will be a large gallery, fashioned after ‘Hamlet’s’ Castle in Copenhagen, Denmark.

room will have a seating capacity of 120, but there will be other lounges in the hotel.
Centre Along with the three-and-one-half million dollar hotel, there will be a million dollar shopping centre. This centre will include many unique specialty shops as well as a supermarket, gas station, and other regular shopping plaza features. The architect for this multi-million, dollar project is Mr. Peter Webb. He is most famous for his designing of Inn on the Park and the Four Seasons in Toronto. His architecture in this area is seen every day as he is the designer of Kitchener-Waterloo’s only ‘skyscraper’ the Waterloo Trust Building on King Street.
Money? Students are’ needed to sollicit advertisements for this newspaper. A generous commission will be offered. This is a chance to earn some extra money and help the paper at the same time. Come to the Coryphaeus office in Annex 1 on Friday between 2 and 4 p.m.
FACULTY,
However, later portions of the conference were at least partially stalled by sharp disagreements between U.S. and Canadian delegates. Here it is felt that a college union should not be directed professionally as in the States but rather by students; and that the functions of the organization is to do more than merely provide facilities for conversations and meetings. In fact, it is entirely possible that next year’s meeting may be composed strictly of Canadian representatives, whose aims regarding the purpose and goals in Student Unions are, at least, consistent among themselves.

The main attractions coming to the Theatre of the Arts are the Canadian Players production of Passion and Destiny and H.M.S. Pinafore, presented by members of the student body. Passion and Destiny takes a comparative look at the passions (mainly love and jealousy) which Shakespeare depicted in his plays, and how these affect our destinies. The compilation of scenes-some of Shakespeares’ best - was made by Tony van Bridge, a noted Stratford actor, who also directs the production. The love angle comes mainly from the opposed approaches to wooing found in Richard III and Henry V; while scenes from Othello and The Merry Wives of Windsor depict the force of jealousy. The play will be seen on Friday, November 20 at 8:30 p.m. with Amelia Hall, Paul Harding, Mervyn Blake, Mary Benning and Robert Helpmann in the cast. Tickets are only $1.00. H.M.S. Pinafore this year’s GILBERT and SULLIVAN production is under the direction of Terry Jones, who last year gave us a very delightful Patience. Pinafore, the second of a well-known G & S operettas, is a satire on Englishmen in general, and the Royal Navy in particular. Probably the best known song of the score is Sir <Joseph Porter (KCB)‘s When I was a Lad, in which he explains how easy it was to become First Lord of the Admiralty. The music of the operetta is, on the whole, very enjoyable and contains some of Sullivan’s most rollicking songs.

In a meeting on Tuesday, November lOth, Students’ Council agreed to adopt the main points in the engineering petition, for the elections to be held in the spring. Representation on Council will be increased on the basis of “rep. by pop.” with the three faculties and St. Jerome’s College forming the constituencies. The recommendations in the petition will be forwarded to the Constitutional Committee for further implementation. The engineers had wanted these proposals implemented immediately, with by-elections, but the feeling was that it would be better to wait until the spring.

Beer will be within a bottle’s throw of the University of Waterloo by May 1, 1966, said Mr. Ken Christopher, Assistant to the President of Major Holdings Limited, in reference to the new development on the corner of Erb and Westmount by Major Holdings and Developments Limited. Work on the hotel-shopping project will begin on April 1, 1965 and the hotel and plaza will be finished by May 1966. Mr. A. Wiebe, President of Major Holdings, in announcing the formal plans for the project, said that there would be a 120 seat Buttery (beer) Room and also a 1000 capacity ballroom. These rooms, along with the Cabana Club and terrace overlooking the courtyard, will be only some of the many features of this 160 room hotel.

in the Coryphaeus. Also, any student can write articles for the newspaper. These articles could either be on events occurring on campus, or his opinion on a certain subject of interest. Those articles would be in addition to the letters to the editor. Both these ‘articles’ and the letters to the editor may be sent or delivered to The Editor, Coryphaeus, Annex 1, University of Waterloo. It is impossible to cover the meetings and functions of\ all campus clubs. Therefore, each club should submit a write-up of their meeting or function to the Coryphaeus.
This was the headline in last week’s paper of the Waterloo “Cord Lutheran University’s Weekly.” Obviously, who should know whether the Coryphaeus has folded, they or we? Well, last Friday’s edition, this edition, and every other edition this year, will be a lasting rebuttal to the Cord that “The Coryphaeus has not folded and never will.” It was a ‘nice try’ to out-scoop the Coryphaeus, but it failed.
to have a greater cohesiveness from year to year. But, back to the Cord’s frontpage ‘Mis-news’ story. It exemplifies two problems. First, a newspaper should always print reliable stories. ‘Mis-truths and misrepresentations of the facts are the worst evils of newspaper writing. However, the most important problem which the incident exemplifies is the Ia& of cornmunication and co-operation between the two universities in Waterloo. Since the founding of the University of Waterloo,’ there has been a dominating rivalry between the students and in fact, the administrations of both universities. This must end. Cooperation among all will only lead to a better education for the students and perhaps some of the administration of both universities. In the future this paper will begin co-operation through communication between the two newspapers. Events on the W.L.U. campus will be published in the Coryphaeus, if these events will be of interest to any of our students.

Ottawa,
We can continue. The response to our plea was tremendous. Thank you for ensuring that the University of Waterloo continues to have a newspaper. The Coryphaeus will appear once a week, every Thursday afternoon. Deadline for the paper will be every Monday at 500 p.m. To ensure that notices are printed they should be type written, 64 characters to a line and double spaced. Typewriters are available in the Board of Publication’s offices. Students and faculty are asked to contribute poems, short stories, and art work which could be used to publish a literary page
The paper printed exerpts from a letter criticizing our former editor-in-chief. To the writer of this letter, I say: GQ to hell.

Letters
Dear Sir: 1 would like to bring to your attention the situation which exists with respect to the student’s mailbox. In annex 1, opposite the Board of Pubs. office there is a collection of metal boxes, stuffed with envelopes addressed to students at LJ.W. This is usually called the “mailbox.” In one box, the one which I am extremely interested in, there are two letters which are dated 2 weeks ago. They and I am worried look important, about their receippy-ents. Might I request (by means of your now vastly-improved newspaper) that these people pick up said mail PDQ. Would everyone please check the mailbox every few days? At present the area looks like a mess! David Youngs, Matb 1
Dear Sir: Two years ago I was a first year man, I didn’t realize the importance of Henry Miller, Harold Robins and lager beer. But within a few months I was thoroughly indoctrinated with classical literature, compliant females and excellent liquor. And now, all I see is mediocrity. If my writing tends to exemplify this I am sorry to say that perhaps I have been influenced by my surroundings. Where are the engineers who made university a meaningful expression of our inmost feelings and desires? Have the heroes of yesteryear vanished into the oblivion of do-nothingess? Perhaps they where imprisoned receiving a life sentence, or maybe they have become disgusted with our selfish little ways and left our hallowed school. Once we could paint “BEER” on the Waterloo water tower and spend hours laughing at the engineering accomplishments of our university. Now we sit at home poring over meaningless formulas. There was a time in our short history when an engineer was proud enough of his school to cheer its legendary name on the battleground of Seagram’s Stadium. Now we discuss the relative merits of a pastoral poem with an artsman’s accent. Last year we had a scavenger hunt which resulted in an engineerbeseiged haywagon decorated with bikini clad damsels. This year the harsh initials “SS” where changed to the more euphonistic “OS.” This university is primarily an engineering university. One must acknowledge the existence of an Arts and

There are times when I am a mugwump. Precariously, I perch on a fence with my mug on one side and my wump on the other. I am afraid to commit myself, one way or the other, on some issues. I am a wishy-washy? middle-of-the-road, eclectic liberal. And I am proud of it. In fact, I will do battle with the first person who dares insist that I state whether I am fer or agin something. I often enjoy watching the bastions of the extremes argue themselves blue in the eyeballs while I noncommitally chew a piece of ordinary gum. I refuse to see every issue as black or white. But I am not “average.” (Some have said that I am not normal, but I prefer the word average.) I have my likes and my dislikes, in a pattern unlike those of anyone else. However, in some matters, I refuse to accept one or the other of two diametrically opposed positions. Nor am I apathetic; I am interested in a variety of subjects. It is just that I often do not take sides. The foregoing is all by way of preface to my complaint that a certain friend of mine will not allow me to watch this Saturday’s football game without first declaring my preference’ of Ottawa or Hamilton.
Ho, ho, ho! Merrrrry Christmas! I am a trifle premature, you say? The K-W Jaycees do not seem to think so. Their annual parade, featuring the Fat Man, takes place this coming Saturday. And many of the local merchants have already begun their a n n u a 1 Pre-Christmas-Going-Out-of-Business-for-theTwelfth-and-Final-Time Sales Every year, it seems, the pressure to extract the Christmas buck begins earlier than the last. By the time Christmas actually arrives, one’s head is about ready to burst as a result of having heard Bing Crosby spew out WI&e Christmas for the forty-seven millionth time. The only reason I am even bothering to mention Christmas this early is that I may beat the annual rash of comments for and against “Let’s put the X back in Xmas” which will appear in print next month. I have scooped all the other papers with my comment; I have avoided the Christmas rash.
The front page story of last week’s Cord Weekly carried the announcement that the Coryphaeus had folded. The story was correct insofar as the Coryphaeus was folded between pages two and five. The Cord’s problem stemrned from the fact that when the editor put it to bed two weeks ago, it woke up on the wrong side, on Friday the thirteenth.

MUSIC
The Church An extraordinary use of symbolism is combined with beautiful handling of the wood medium here. The church, seen as a woman (of whom the Shulamite bride of Solomon in Song of Songs or Canticle of canticles, has long been seen as a type), holds up her open hands to receive the Grace of God. In her heart is the cross, and in her womb, made cavelike, so that it recalls both the stable of Bethlehem and the tomb of Christ’s death, lies the infant Christ. This double image reminds us of the altar, to which Christ comes in the Eucharist, and of the waters of baptism in which the Christian is buried with Christ, so that the major sacraments of the church are suggested. In still another depth of subtlety, the figure becomes the Christian (the soul is always made feminine in religious symbolism) as an individual, who bears the indelible mark of the Cross and who becomes himself an alter Christus as Christ is born in him.
At last, a folksinger that doesn’t spend half the evening shouting at you in some obscure language from Central South Africa. This currently popular pseudo-intellectual type of folksinging always sent me home around intermission. And whenever Miss Dova did get away from good old English she usually threw in a nice simple translation that even I understood. But this language barrier was just one of her marvelous qualities, for Nina Dove is a really professional entertainer and knows all the tricks of the trade. In fact, as she sang and played her way through two hours of delightful fun on Friday, she reminded us all that only at a University can you see this kind of show for a buck. I should say that her voice would never get her to the Metropolitan Opera, and that the guy who played the guitar for St. Jerome’s morality plays knew more about this instrument than Miss Dova. Nevertheless, she was good enough at both to use them as a vehicle for her natural sense of humour. In short, she was a fair artist and a gifted entertainer and that makes for a damn good evening. I suppose that Paul Berg, theatre manager, is responsible for the new back-a-student price. In case nobody
by H. B. November 22 - 29 has been declared CANADA MUSIC WEEK. The scheme is the product of the national organization of music teachers, the Canadian Federation of Music Teachers’ Association Inc. The general idea is that during Canada Music Week, the registered music teachers’ associations throughout the country promote an awareness of, and the use of, music by Canadian composers, through the medium of publicity as well as through the use of Canadian music in local recitals, church services, etc. This is your opportunity to give your fellow Canadians a chance to be heard and appreciated. Once a year contemporary Canadian music!

Nina Dova Concert Last Friday night an audience of about 300 listened to what must have been one of the best evening’s entertainments ever heard in our theatre. Nina Dova, born in England and now living in the United States, was advertised as a singer of International Songs, but proved to be much more than that. All her experience as an actress, comedian, trained singer, and guitarist was put to good use to form a programme of very high quality and great variety. Miss Dova established an excellent rapport with the audience from the very beginning. Even in the foreignlanguage songs the audience was able to follow her and become involved mentions it anywhere else, BRAVO for this policy change. From the number of students at Nina Dova it looks like it’s going to bring the. theatre back to the University.
Anyone for Art? The McMaster University extension department is offering a non-certificate course in “Life Drawing,” one of the features of which is a nude model. The model, a housewife, is quite unself-conscious. During the fiveminute “break” during the period, she wandered among students quite unconcerned with her total nudity. “I enjoy modelling for art classes very much because I love the people. They’re so exciting.” Anything like drawing fruit or chairs? Not bloody likely! Fruit and chairs don’t get paid. L@p@. .@jb?-9.. The Coryphaeus is not the only university newspaper to worry over possible extinction due to lack of interest on the part of students. St. Francis Xavier’s, The Xaverian, recently published a front-page editorial presenting an ultimatum to students: “If this editorial fails in its purpose and we do not hear from sufficient numbers by Wednesday (Nov. 4) midnight, next week we publish blank with only the flag showing. And that will be the end for us at least.” “We have as much right to pass as you.” ..@. .m..

in each song. Her explanations of the songs where necessary, and her obvious emotional involvement in each song made this possible, aided by her actions and sound effects, both with guitar and voice. Starting with a group of early English ballads and madrigals, she showed her complete mastery of the guitar, at the same time using her voice to the best advantage and playing difficult and authentic lute-style accompaniments. Then she gave a wide sampling of the world’s folk songs, at all times showing competence, authenticity and variety. At the end an enthusiastic audience called Miss Dova back for several well-deserved encores. We can only hope that the rest of the Celebrity Series will approach the quality of this concert.

‘* * * On Friday, October 30, the 22year old Israeli pianist, DANIEL BARENBOIM played a piano recital at WLU. I first heard Daniel in 1952 in Vienna where he played several recitals, at that time, a tenyear old boy. Since 1952 he has developed into a mature musician, a superb artist. After his concert here, we killed time in Toronto as he had an early morning tlight to New York City. He told me that he has been living out of his suitcases for the last two and a half years, being on tour all the time. Last Sunday he played with Montreal-Los Angeles conductor, Zubin Mehta, I Mozart’s C-Minor Piano Concerto in Paris. If you missed him at W.L.U. or if you couldn’t make it to Paris I suggest a trip to Toronto. Daniel will play a Beethoven Piano Concerto with the T.S.O. in Massey Hall on November 25. * * * The use of sound as a non-chemical means of contr,olling insects that attack stored grain and other farm products is being tested by U.S. Department of Agriculture scientists.

It appears that Canadian university entrance exams may be on the way in. Last week, Canadian university administrations gave overwhelming support to the founding of a body to set up and administer uniform university entrance examinations. Dr. Eric Graham, of Royal Roads, reporting to the National Conference of Canadian Universities and Colleges, spoke on the findings of a one-year study of the feasibility of establishing such a council. He said its purpose would be not to set uniform requirements for all Canadian universities but to provide a common guide (whatever that means). Present matriculation exams create problems when students move from one province to another, and, because of the lateness in obtaining results of matriculation exams, registrars are unable to examine thoroughly student applications before classes be-

From Acadia University comes an interesting mention of various rules and regulations governing the class of 1897. We may complain but things could be worse (?): “Parents are requested to furnish to the principal a list of those with whom they wish their daughters to correspond. It is hoped that these lists will be brief, as home letters take all the time that can be spared from study and recreation. All postal matter issued from the schools bears the Seminary stamp and must be deposited in the letter box provided for the purpose. All telegrams designed for students in the Seminary should be addressed to the principal.” “The rooms are conveniently and neatly furnished, but students are required to bring all articles of bedding, except a mattress. Each student is also required to bring towels, four table napkins, napkin ring, and a silver spoon, for use in sickness, all distinctly marked.” “On the ground of health, it is necessary to request parents not to send their daughters confectionery, preserves, or any other eatables, except, perhaps fresh fruit. Our table is supplied with wholesome, nutritious food and a largepati of illness among students is ‘directly traceable to the mistaken kindness of ‘boxes from home.’

There was a time when an engineer was an engineer not an artsman with a grey jacket. At present the difference is barely discernible. Although the student handbook l states “Escapades that show ingenuity, careful planning,. which result Zn little or no property damage and which result in public apbrobation, may be dealt with in a sympathetic manner . . . this is a littl& heard of phrase today.

Dear Sir: ’ We are the greatest! We are the best, the most, Fhe neatest, and the most beautiful! We are the engineers. Did anyone notice the elections for students Founcil? What a wonderful and gloriousX acclamation - most of >. the council turned out to be handsome engineers! The elections tonight 7 ! are going to be a different type of event; we, the wise and wonderful engineers have p& up for election - over, ten, count ‘em, over tei candidates for our fantastic organization. Why are we so good? How could we nominate over ten people from a measly pdpulation of five hundred when the whole school ,could only dig up a paltry five from three thousand. Because we are the most cheerful, illustrious, and ingenious, that’s why. Who else could get a campaign poster put up in the police station 4 but a sly engineer? No Chief Otto, GSISF does not stand for the FLQ’ group, but you had better watch where you leave your parking tickets from now on; we engineers are fierce, if we growl, ytiu will cower.

Where
,
is the Coryphaeuk?
Dear Sir, I should like to know who is responsible for the distribution of the Coryphaeus on campus. , On Tuesdays, (when the Coryphaeus was published on Tuesdays) I would be ht the Stereo Club (Pl45) at noon.
Qoi&oadsl
Each week, halfway through the hour, soaeone~ would come in wiih a copy of ih& paper. I would go out to the lobby\ and find none. Several times I had to go to the Engineering Common Room or all the way to Annex 1 to get a few copies. ,They often still weren’t in the Physics and Math Building at 1 o’clock. On Fridays it is just as bad. Today, (Nov. 13) I was in the &ts Building until 13 o’clock and had seen no papers except single copies cairied across the campus by individuals (showing that the paper ha,d been published at any rate). I finally gave up and went over to Annex 1. One Fridav I picked up a Coryphaeuk in the, evening at Notre Dame College. There were none in the Arts Building until Monday. Are the papers just put ‘outside the Board of Publications office and anyplace close by such F the Engineering Commtin Room or the cafete?ia for whoever likes to carry on to other buildings? Or is someone responsible for their distributi&? If this is the case there is a breakdown in the organization somewhere. P. L. Hurlbut, Spec. Arts.
Kellingworth
Rebuffed
Dear Sir: I, for one, did not forget to remember last Wednesday. How can one forget that millions of men valued our way of life so highly that they fought, and sacrificed their lives for it? Mr. Kellingworth suggests that “while we are here, let us enjoy what little of the world there is to enjoy without taking time to remember such, morbid items as dead soldiers.” I agree that there are many “rotten things” in this ‘world, but I remind l&. Kellingwvrth that the world in which those million lived was no easier than ours but they acted to protect what joys they had, the joys which their freedom allowed them to have. Rebel against the “many rotten things in this world,” Mr. Kelling-. worth, but don’! forget that the gotid things in this life which we owe to our .freedom, are owed to “such morbid
items as dead soldiers.” Harvey

ORTHODOXY
:::::: :a::2 2.?. .:.:.: :.:.> :::::: .:.:.:
SYND
An orthodoxy may be loosely defined as a set of answers for which one is expected to provide questions. Thus considered, orthodoxies aren’t necessarily bad. Much of mathematics as taught until recently in the public schools of Canada and most other nations fits this definition, though no one would maintain that it was an abomniation to teach a child to do sums. Other orthodoxies are less attractive: Aristotle used to be the fashion in philosophy; as late as 1624 the parlement of Paris banished two chemists for having the effrontery to doubt some of the opinions of that learned Greek. Universities have their own orthodoxies. The academic profession, like other labour groups, has developed a taste for organization, with the result that regional and national standards set by professional teachers promise to eliminate much diversity among colleges. This scholarly orthodoxy is the source of the rumor that a college degree is a prerequisite for admission to The Great Society (on whichever side of the border it may be found). It isn’t necessary, however, to beat the faculty bushes to find answer-sets. Consider the prevalent bromide that ‘Arts are Arts and Sciences are Sciences and never the twain shall meet.’ The fact that this is damnably vague doesn’t seem to prevent vast numbers of students from regarding it as a gilt-edged truth. What, I should like to ask, is it supposed to mean? One gathers that The Ideal Scientist leaves his university world
of solid, rocklike ‘facts’ to retire to an evening of virile empiricism, relaxing with “The Scientific American” and “Calcium Chloride News.” The Ideal Artsman in his turn presumably refreshes himself after a hot day’s pursuit of the Absolute by a rustic dinner scooted over an open hearth, a languid perusal of “Literary Cavalcade,” and a session of self-expression through the modern dance before bedtime. Drivel, you say ? They’re likely to have made a mass exodus either to the partially demolished Kent or to a rather lamentable dinner at one of the residences, or both? Perhaps, but how explain the separation, which, by the way, seems to have some rather p,owerful encouragement from the administration? What does it mean to say (or merely to live as if) arts and sciences are two parallel lines meeting nowhere? A campaign on the part of the engineers to build the more clever computer results, if it meets with success, in more work done in less time, i.e. in LEISURE. Leisure has to be filled in with pleasurable pastimes, if man is to remain sane, and one would look in vain among the science courses of this university for a clever course in recreation. This adolescent orthodoxy has a rather firm grip on our booming campus right now, despite the fact that no one would want to maintain what it seems to assert. I wonder how many intrepid undergraduates there are, in both camps, who would follow the example of those Parisian chemists and raise a small but potent outcry?

On Wednesday, November 25 at 8 p.m. in the Theatre of the Arts, an International Debate will be held on the motion “that women be abolished.” It will be sponsored by the Debating Society of the University of Waterloo. A British Universities team will oppose the University of , Waterloo team. The British team members are John Thane of Oxford University, and David Penrey-Davey of Kings College, London. Keith Ovenden of Keele University is a reserve member. The Waterloo team is composed of Mike Sheppard and Craig Parkes. Additional speakers will be Charles Chapman and Everett Marwood. The- British will take the affirmative side. (Who but an Englishman could argue for something like this?) The gallant lads from Waterloo will defend our women against the foreign attackers. If you are interested in debating and wish to see good British debating, this is the debate to see. These gentlemen must rank with the finest college debators in the world. However, it is not necessary to have an interest in debating to enjoy the debate. Judging by the topic of debate, humour plays a large part in British debating. This could be the comedy highlight of the season. Furthermore, the debate will be conducted under Parliamentary rules and the audience will be considered Members of the House. This means that if any ladies would like to present their side of the case when the presentations are finished and debate is thrown open to the floor, any member of the audience will be given five minutes to express his or her views. The British team will be on our campus by 3 p.m. on the day of the f debate. They would enjoy meeting
any of our students who wish to discuss politics, literature, or Britain in general, or just to say hello. If anyone is especially interested in meeting these gentlemen, a note in the letterbox of Annex 1 will contact Mike Sheppard. The Debating Society will be engaging in another *debate the weekend before this one. On November 20-21 Mike Sheppard, Steve Flott, Craig Parkes and Jim Fisher travel to the University of Rochester where they will debate ten different American universities. There will be fifty universities engaging in this series of debates.

The third annual chess tournament between WUC and the U. of W. was held at their student union building. After two hours and forty-five minutes, (when the last checkmate was given), the U. of W. club was the winner by a score of 6 to 2. On November 21, there will be a chess tournament involving five universities at WUC, and from these results, it seems that the University of Waterloo team will have a good chance to win.
