pushes-

In a Gazette statement published Wednesday, - pro-tern administration president Howard Petch outlined the ’ administration’s disciplinary powers. ’ Petch’s \ statement is a description of the existing powers rather than a new policy. The rep0r.t rejects the old concept of In loco parentis “except insofar as such (moral and social behaviour of students) may affect the rights and welfare I of other individuals in the university community”. It reaffirms that the civil and criminal laws apply to the university population, and that all violations of them will be refered to the public courts. The only part of the statement which can be considered

Controversy by Bruce Meharg Chevron staff

At the last meeting of the university act committee, board of governors representative Jack Davidson provided operations vicepresident Al Adlington with an example of the necessity of closed sessions for the proposed council,. but federation president Tom Patterson didn’t agr>e. “What if council found it necessary to investigate the character of Mr. Adlington?” Davidson. asked Patterson, who had expressed his objection to closed meetings. “Shouldn’t we make this in camera?” “I don’t know, how Al Adlington would feel,” replied Patterson, “but I know if I was in his position . I would want it to be open.” kdlington indicated his views on the matter. “Maybe we should make this meeting in camera and ask the reporters to leave,” he interjected. This prompted Davidson to capologize. “I’m ‘sorry to pick on you, Al,” he said. The meeting was held on december 11, one day after the deadline for the last Chevron .

for double ,

a departure from previous practice is the revival _ of double jurisdiction, which allows the administration to punish a person for an act for which he is also punished ..by the- public courts. Double jurisdiction has been one of the features of university discipline most often criticized. A report by the Provost’s advisory committee on student discipline in 1968 recommended that offences be prosecuted only in the public cqurts, with no further action by the university. The largest section of the statement concerns disruptive activities on campus. In it, Petch defines three types of dissent “peaceful, nondisruptive action”

caused of last term. The committee was discussing a set of bylaws presented by senate rep Lynn Watt of the bylaws subcommittee. The provision giving council the right to hold closed sessions for discussing matters of a confidential nature caused a great deal of contro.versy. Patterson argued that the reason for holding a meeting in camera must be stated publicly. Chancellor Ira Needles countered by saying that when a financial or personal matter is discussed the specific reason for a closed session cannot be given because “we can’t besmirch a person’s reputation”. Patterson said that he disagreed with the bylaw in principle. “We must tell the people the nature of an in camera session. People have the right to know the general nature,” he stated. “What about the firing of the administration president?“, asked Davidson. “How would its general nature be announced? ” “Such a meeting shouldn’t even be in camera,” answered Patterson. Davidson then resorted to

’ John Saywell, arts and science dean at York, said any ambitions he might have had to become president of the institution were “more than offset” by rumors and slanders circulation on campus and by the haggle over the procedure” of choosing a president. Saywell did not explain the nature of the rumors, the fabrications or the slander, but university. sources say his stand favoring faculty r power made him unpopular with the board of governors, composed largely

jurisdiction

“simply obstructive”, and “violent and destructive”. The first will be tolerated, the second will be acted upon according to the particular circumstances of the case, and the third will be stopped “as quickly and effectively as possible.” Presumably, the decision as to what sort of demonstration it is will be up to the president, and the wording of the statement gives him considerable latitude in making his decision. In an introduction to the statement, Petch states that he will establish an interim advisory committee to advise him on matters relating to university jurisdiction in all non-academic matters, and called for the creation of a Task Force which

would have one year. to make a report on the whole area of conduct. , When contacted on Wednesday night about the request for student members on the interim advisory committee, federation president Tom Patterson said that he intends to recommend that Council participate in the committee. “The federation should not take part in the enforcement of rules over students which they did not make and have no democratic means to change. ” said Patterson. Petch’s request will be referred to student council for a decision at its meeting monday night. .

of businessmen. Charges have apparently been raised that as soon as the names of the presidential candiates were revealed, some members of the board began phoning senators advising them whom to support.

’

The procedural haggles apparently result from a split within the York senate, with one faction favoring election of the new president by the board of _ governors alone, while another, including Saywell and student Isenators wants an open decision with the senate having the major say. A compromise accepted by most senators has the senate vote for the new president by secret ballot, with only the board chairman and the presi. dential search committee seeing the results. Saywell was the second of the three candidates to drop out of the presidential race : Michael Oliver, a viceprincipal at McGill university, withdrew _ december 9 after the names of the three were released to the press. Oliver was also considered to be jockeying for the principalship of McGill, which becomes vacant following the resignation of H. Rocke Robertson at the end of the term.

The - only candidate left at York is Albert Allen, a dean at the university of Toronto, but a member of the York presidential search committee will soon decide whether to add more names to the presidential ballot. Murray ident of nounced from the selection

SGW charges

MONTREAL (CUP)-Guyana opposition leader Cheddi Jagan monday urged the withdrawal of charges against 87 defendants charged in connection with the damaging of the Sir George Williams university computer center_last february. Jagan, leader of the people’s progressive party in Guyana, was in Montreal for the opening of I the january assizes of the court of queen’s bench, which will assign trial dates for 70 of the accused including Jagan’s son, Cheddi Jr. “The students have already suffered enough,” Jagan said. “They have already paid a high penalty by being out of school. I think the charges against them should be dropped. ”

The 87 have been charged with conspiracy and property damage in connection with the incident, - which resulted in 2 million dolSir George Willars damage. liams students involved in the incident have been suspended indefinitely from the university. The students originally occupied ‘the computer center _in protest against alleged racism at Sir George: damage to the center was incurred after Montreal’s riot squad was called in to evict them from the premises. Members of the black corn-munity in Montreal have said that the hysteria aroused by the incident has completely smothered the actual cause of the trouble at Sir George-racism

More of these combined studies of modern problems should take place, he said. Students also have a big part in developing a university. “The effectiveness of new methods in the classroom depends on the willingness of the teacher.” Matthews said ,some of his students last year asked him to cancel all lectures, pass out lists of the useful books to read and his lecture notes and then spend the class time in discussion groups with students. The procedure was tried and many students enjoyed it. HOWever, many accustomed to listening to a teacher talk for all their school life were lost when left on their own, he said. “Some were disturbed to have paid their fees to hear the lecturer and not have any,” he said. With any new classroom methods, the professor has a big what showing students job there is to be learned, he said.

Last of the hopefuls The university is no longer an ivory tower, it is part of the larger community and has obligations to it,” said Henry Duckworth, academic vicepresident of -the university of Manitoba and third candidate for the uniwat admin presidency. In his speech, Duckworth said that the university is no longer isolated from the community but there is still a need for - detachment’ to fulfil1 their role as critics of society and that inevitably leads “to a degree of tension”. He also said that truth is the university’s first concern but “vested interests in the outside community might not wish to hear the truth and may prefer students not to be exposed to it either”. He listed the four other major responsibilities for a university: 0 Assisting young people to become enlightened and responsible citizens. l Training the professionals. Architects, doctors and other professionals must have a spiritual injection into their education to make sure they are reI sponsible persons, not “simply technocrats.” l Continuing education. This could be a matter of job necessity or personal satisfaction to community members. Manitoba has some 13,000 regular stud-

Teacher shortage will be the biggest problem for universities in the next decade, said Bert Matthews, second guest of the presidential search committee and academic vicepresident of the university of Guelph. He criticized professors or universities L interested in making their own name in research. “As faculty our primary role is to help students learn. If a professor wants to do only research he should be in a research institution.” . Matthews earlier told a meeting of about a dozen students that the first measure of a university is how much learning goes on. One way of coping with a continuing professor shortage may be in making the courses more relevant to world problems like pollution, food and city growth. These problems do not fit very well with the usual division of study into traditional courses, he said. Students see the problems but of ten feel therr courses don’t help in the search for answers: Instead, they often feel they are required to remember answers ‘to questions not worth bothering with. Matthews praised Waterloo’s

At the 18 december meeting, uniwat senate called for a committee to investigate the feaqibility of setting up a teacher education program. The terms of reference for the committee are: l Such a program should not disrupt or substantially interfere with existing programs or prevent the adoption of other programs envisaged for the near future. l Such a program sho,uld not mount professional training at the expense of an arts degree. l The special committee should consult extensively with all affected departments.

Duckworth ents, but more than 17,500 in non-degree courses. l Showing concern for community problems. The university has personnel, techniques and insights to tackle huge social problems like pollution. “It can provide the skills to make a total attack on it.” He cited a water resources project in Manitoba that draws on all areas of the university. “Concern of community problems,” he continued, “have reestablished lines of communication between long-separated parts of the university. Indeed in a small way we are re-establishing the very idea of the university. ”

piopsed l The program should be on a non-segregated/basis. l Apprenticeship periods, a form of co-op education, would be appropriate. _ l The proposed special committee should work, through the office of the president, with all external agencies, relevant department of university affairs, department of education and Stratford teachers college.

OTTAWA (CUP)-Baffled by their dual role as service organizers and student politicians, student councillors at Carleton university tuesday agreed to ask their constituents to vote them out of existence. By a 12-3 vote, the council agreed to hold a referendum january 19 and 20, at which students would approve the creation of two separate and distinct students organizations : one concerned with university social activities, the other concerned with university government. At the same meeting, seven members of the eight-man council executive resigned. “It was impossible to run both a highly professional service organization and deal with complex political questions at the same time, in an ad hoc situation,” Lorenz council ex-president Schmidt said. “The power balance between representative the university structure-known as NUG (New university government)-and the student council was eroding the credibility of both and made it hard for students to realize there is a concentrated drive of any sort going on. ” The council executive hopes

divides

roles

students will approve a plan creating two student organizations: a five-man “board of directors” elected to control social activities of the students’ union, plus a “grand council” composed of students elected under the recently-instituted NUG to the departmental levels of university government. The NUG reps would elect the “grand council” from among their own members to deal with “politics, education and self-awareness issues. ” The five-man “board of directors” would be directly responsible to Carleton students as a whole: their impeachment could be initiated by 300 students. The executive hopes student participation in NUG will eventually be extended to parity within the university. Currently, students hold nearly 180 positions at the departmental level. If Carleton students reject the proposal, the remainder of the student council will appoint an interim executive to sit until regular elections are held february 16. If the proposal is accepted, members of the “board of directors” will be elected at that time. Elections for NUG representatives were held november 19. Only 20 percent of eligible students turned out to vote.

Taxes, political aid focus of Vietnam moratorium WASHINGTON, .D.C. (CUPI)-The Vietnam moratorium committee announced tuesday it would concentrate its efforts on the organizing of nationwide “tax-payer rallies” for april 15, and would start a campaign service to help political candidates opposed to the Vietnam war. The organizers said the 15th of january, february and march would be designated as “peace action days,” but said they did not expect major activities on those days. The rest of the time between now and april would be devoted to convincing americans that U.S. president Richard Nixon’s Vietnam policy will not bring an end to the war. Co-ordinator Sam Brown said Nixon has “a policy for continuing the war, not for ending it,” and added that “it will take a strong educational effort to convince people of this.” The april 15th rallies are scheduled to coincide with the last day for filing U.S. federal income tax returns: demonstrations and meetings would take place at local internal revenue service offices. The rallies would center on the issue of high taxes due to inflated military spending. The moratorium committee also promised to generate volunteers, consultants, entertainers and speakers to help “doves running for reelection and doves running against hawk incumbents.” The committee expects to have resources to aid 50 to 60 candidates for the U.S. senate and house of representatives.

The $8000 sculpture in the campus center great hall is on a special six-week loan to the student activities board from the Henry Tory gallery in Vancouver. Called “the sun never sets”, the welded steel piece of art is by the internationally known artist, Jer/ sey Niedoj adlo. The loan was arranged by groundhog weekend chairman

Brian Rose, who persuaded Niedojadlo to allow the sculpture to be used as part of the groundhog weekend celebrations. The 33-year old artist is the creator of “tree” which stands on the city hall plaza in Oslo, and ‘ ‘tremello” which is in the place des arts in Bais, Belgium. In the lobby of the national arts center in Ottawa is “cargon No. 7”, one of a series of works. Niedojadlo has also received a commission to do a sculpture for the finnish pavilion at expo 70. \

education and more employment opportunities. Only one student, a doctoral candidate, aided in preparation of the commission report, after the Montreal student council ( AG-I EUM) refused to participate on any administration body. The student council later dissolved itself. The report also recommended the institution of a teaching course for future university professors at the university, and called for more emphasis on the whole year’s ,work in assigning final marks. But while asking for more emphasis ‘on the social commitment of professors, the report concentrates on methods for luring more federal and provincial research grants to the university, and advocates more control by the university over its research function. A second minority report was issued with the Deschenes document-two members of the commission protested that neither students nor non-academic staff should be granted parity even in an advisory capacity. Student representatives to committees would change too quickly, they said, and non-academic staff have only a “service function” to faculty and students.

system

expanded

The senate has discussed the report of its task force on coherent practices, approving one of the report recommendations: establishment of an all-faculty credit system for individual courses except those leading to professional degrees. It will be implemented next fall. Since certain coursesin science and engineering have labs, the weighting of them shall be accomplished so as to give these courses greater value. The senate also discussed another recommendation, a uniform grading system for the university. Some members wanted the numerical system (O-100), while others objected and preferred the letter system because it is “more widely understood ; it offers integrals. ” After further discussion, it was decided to hold decision for the february meeting. In other business, a proposal that the last week in february be a study week was tabled. The engineering faculty objected, and Ewart Brundrett of mechanical engineering felt that because of the co-op system, engineering should become involved in study week three times a year. “Yet this would be very difficult because of the short fall term”. Spokesmen for arts and math argued for the february date because students favor the seventh week in the winter term as a study week, and they noted the last week of the term is used for studying in any event. Academic’vicepresident Jay Minas urged the senate, because of absenteeism, to “decide upon the last week, instead of a week in february”. friday

Who knows. One day the tribulations of starting a regional student union may rival tales of Joey Smallwood as bed-time stories for grandchildren in the maritimes. Such a union really has been a long time coming. And after a number of false starts, university and college students in the atlantic provinces tried again in October, this time through an organization rather unaffectionately known as the federation of atlantic student councils. (FASC ) . The federation is only supposed to last a year-hopefully, referenda on the region’s 12 campuses in the spring and fall of 1970 will okay the founding of the atlantic union of students. The union would be a first for Canada in two aspects. It would be a voluntary union, controlled by its membership, rather than a federation of student council types from each campus. It’ would also be the first regional union of students in the country. That’s the goal of the federation, then-not to act as a policymaking body, but to pave the way for such a regional union. Its job will be research, education and propaganda. Two fieldworkers have been hired by the federation to take the concept and rationale of a maritimes union to the region’s twelve campuses. The two-Kathy Walker and Skip Hamblin-both have previous organizing experience : Walker, with the women’s liberation movement; Hamblin with the company of young Canadians in community labor projects. They will be talking on the campuses, not only to student council types but to meetings of campus interest groups. The message they take with them will be supplemented by the results of research initiated by the federation. The research-it will probably go on should the federation and the union both fail to gel-has broadly-defined parameters :

Such a union is burdened with difficulties in coming into existence. Not the least of these is that student councils, the major stumbling block to most student -unionism, are the organizations that founded the federation. The founding conference in Charlottetown in October had all the earmarks of a (god bless them) congress of the late canadian union of students: with the traditional appeal to “mandates”, or lack of them, and calls for membership referenda. In the end, only half the campuses ,joined the federation. Two more did so provisionally: while the region’s largest universitiesNew Brunswick and Dalhousie-stayed out, claiming they had no mandate. But despite this-and despite the contradiction of student councils organizing towards a voluntary regional union-there are good reasons to auger success for those who see the need for such an organization. In the maritimes, perhaps more than anywhere else in the country, the need for regional organizing, research and action by university students is rooted in the history and economics of the region. Students all over the north american continent are beginning to grapple with the inseparability of problems in the university and in the societv. In the Atlantic region, they are slapped in the face with this reality.

The maritimes universities are a completely integrated aspect of the clumsy response by existing federal and provincial governments to problems of regional underdevelopment. When the students gathered in Charlottetown this October to found- FASC’ they> met in the birthplaceof+confederation-103 years earlier delegates to another conference had gathered. to dis: cuss the broadening of the tax base-capitalism then needed money to build railroads to ex- , tend itself westward: the maritimes had temporarily been exploited to the limit. Economically, the region remains structurally underdeveloped. Indeed, in capitalist terms, development of the Maritimes can be considered dysfunctional. Primary industry, as in most of Canada, remains characteristic; highly mechanized extraction of the region’s mineral resources, exported elsewhere for manufacture. Lack of social capital (i.e., a highly-trained work force ; and abundant natural resources makes the introduction of light and heavy manufacturing industry prohibitive, in a capitalist context. The response to this underdevelopment by the federal government and various economic agencies has been one of ‘pork barrel’, social welfare capitalism-the expenditure of vast sums of money trying to buoy up the regional economy, and simultaneously attract employmentproviding industry. Capital-intensive industries are to be set up to lure laborintensive investment. Ancillary services, like roads, and tax incentives are the bait offered potential industries that will set up in the region. The idea isis, if. you guarantee profits through such subsidies, capital flows in to reap the profits. The negative effects of this kind of artificial development can be read today in the lives of the people of the maritimes. *continued

on nekt page

for vQ/untary The region is heavily dependent on federal handouts-60 percent of the current PEI provincial budget is subsidized from the federal coffers. With the existence of this ‘pork barrel’, traditional political parties compete for it, and resistance to any real economic change is severe-the region has the lowest rates of organized labor, strict anti-labor laws, incredible unemployment, and extremely reactionary courts overseeing the whole. It’s a policy which uproots the people from their culture. Industries such as fishing are starved out as “uneconomic, “. while huge sums are spent sub sidizing the development of larger-and without federal and provincial aid, equally uneconomic-industries. The little people as always take it in the ear. The universities are crucial to this kind of development. Through them is channeled not only the development of the necessary “social capital” for the new capitalism, but also the re-culturation of the society : the training of the managerial and technical elite for the new culture of the maritimes. So important is such social capital to the artificial-insemination brand of capital development programmed for the maritimes, that Newfoundland, one of the poorest provinces in the country despite its natural wealth, was able to-indeed had to--set up the first fully subsidized university education (if only for a couple of years) on the continent. In this light, the constant regeneration of fumbling attempts towards a regional student union begins to make sense. It’s no abstract idea fallen, from the sky. It comes out of the growing recognition by maritime students of the political relevance of what happens in their universities, of the social and economic context in which they find themselves, even on the campus. The development towards such a union can be traced through the history of the region’s student organiza tions. Prior to 1967, students operated through local councils affiliated simultaneously with CUS and a regional mini-CUS, the atlantic association of students. But these organizations were largely irrelevant to the needs of the region’s students. Dealing primarily with student concerns in a vacuum, they created an anomy in students resulting in their eventual rejection. Student councillors met in 1967 at Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Convinced, most of them, that what was wrong was national they and regional structures, dissolved the AAS into four provincial student unions, which were to meet annually as the atlantic student conference. But there was dissent even then, in Antigonish. “We came to build AAS, not kill it,” said King’s college stu-

dent president Steve Hart. “ASC will only be an exchange of ideas, not a political entity. ” But the newly-formed Ontario union of students was the model, and Dalhousie student president Dennis Ashworth held sway. j “Provincial unions can do a lot of effective political - work,” he said. In the already-crumbling CUS, a note of warning was raised. The new president-elect Peter Warrian looked for a return to regional organizations in a few years, when the trend set by the OUS proved unfeasible for the rest of the country. It looks now as though Warrian and Hart were right. CUS is dead and the AAS has been resurrected in a new federation with new goals-the building of a voluntary regional student union. Council members have recognized the conservativeness of student councils, weighed down with the representivity game and the braking effect of what they have termed the “silent majority.” There is a lot of rhetoric surrounding the FASC: one student councillor at St. Mary’s University has claimed the arrival of “participatory democracy.. . this revolution. . ..not to be ignored. ” SMU councillor Danny Mullally has put out the call to students, “crying in the wilderness.. . to you, Joe Student-to you.. . .behind the test tubes-too busy for anything but studying and memorizing those formulae. ” And maybe, in the end, it will be only another false start, degenerating into nothing more than another student bureaucracy. There is the contradiction of student councils trying to set up a voluntary region-wide parThere ticipatory organization. are the constant problems of hov to get such an organization functioning in reality. So maybe this time they won’1 pull it off. But there is still almost a df terminism to it all-student! throughout the country will bt watching to see what happensit’s been a long time coming.

With play at being attractivequrturing mothers and housewives; with Barbie, girl: learn to expect to be valued by an ever-increasing wardrobe and by their ability to manipulate their fathers and later, husbandsinto buying clothes and more Clothes. Boys are being seen in, the clinic ‘who use Barbie for sexual stimulation, a fact which might trouble the same parents who are scandalized by comic books and pinup magazines, were it not for the fact that Barbie masquerades as a child’s toy. Both boys and girls are introduced to a precocious, joyless WCuality, to fantasies of seduction and to conspicuous This reflects and perpetuates a disconsumption. turbing trend in our culture, which has serious mental health complications.” ARBIE, THE HIGH-FASHION DOLL,” is &hanging our way of life by reconditioning girls between the ages of five and fourteen. Barbie, Ken and three doll associates have been designed for little girls who hate to be little. Ever since the decline. of Little Women, as a moral force, little girlhood has gotten more and more awful, altogether too much like the girls in Ronald Searle’s cartoons. If America’s little girls had access to narcotics, they would no doubt give one another injections to escape from the horror of their daily lives. They have to make do with what is at hand-and the Barbie doll group seems to give them some relief. Their fantasies; as they play, are directed by a corporation located at Hawthorne, in Southern California. The fantasies remove the children from little girlhood and transport them into what they regard as a teenage Utopia. All little girls used to play Mamma, using lovable child-dolls. This year, about six million of them are playing Barbie, who isn’t the kind of young woman you would want to hug (unless you are a GI just coming back from a year in the Aleutians). Barbie is a frigid-looking teenager who somehow, through the magic eyes of childhood, is able to be simultaneously a sorority girl, a bride, a career girl, a debutante and a general all-around Superwoman. By earnestly playing with Barbie and her associates, America’s little girls learn how to live in the future. If they really concentrate, they can avoid that whole difficult period of early childhood which begins at age six. In the process of playing, the girls are educated by the promotion department of the Mattel Corporation, the parent Barbie company. The children adopt a value system rather different from that shaped by the McGuffey Reader: they grow up with Mattel-made expectations. It is important, therefore, to study the educational philosophy of this corporation. Much light comes from an analysis of the costumes manufactured for Barbie and her vinyl-plastic companions, and from studying the articles and short stories in the Mattel Barbie Magazine, which the company distributes to the 600,000 members of the Official National Barbie Fan Club. (The magazine costs the fathers of the nation 25 cents a copy. The club secretary receives more than 15,000 Barbie fan letters a week. ) The Mattel Corporation first hit the big toy-time with guns. In 1959, Ruth Handler, wife of the firm’s president, conceived the idea of Barbie. She felt that her small daughter needed something more mature to play with. Her husband, Elliot, was very pleased with this thought, and within months, Mattel had shipped out more than506,OOO Barbies manufactured under contract by -a Tokyo company.

Mattel licensed other firms to make accessories, such as Barbie cosmetics gear. In 1961, Mattel gave . Barbie a boyfriend, Ken and the nation, smelling sex in the wind, launched itself on the biggest dollbuying spree in history. Before long, Mattel had given the world Midge, the girl-next-door. She is a rather insecure creature blighted with freckles; her function is to provide the shabby obbligato to the Great Barbie Theme. * * * T

HE SUCCESS OF THIS THREESOME is . reflected in Mattel’s 1962-63 gross-sales volume : $78030,661, an increase of 58 per cent over the previous year, <The corporation spent more than $9,000,000 last year on advertising and promotion. It sponsors 12 coast-to-coast television programssix days a week. The Barbie by-products are legion: you can get such items as a Barbie G&Tar, a 32 pound Little Theater and a Queen-of-theprom game. Five-and-dime stores carry Barbie primers that orientate tiny girls. McCall’s magazine holds-the rights on Barbie’s fashion patterns. Barbie now has a little sister, Skipper, and Ken has a buddy, Allan. There are Barbie Block Clubs in every family quarter of our cities. Many littlegirl birthday parties are calibrated to the movement: the mothers conspire to see that everybody brings a new costume or accessory for one of the dolls. Barbie is 11% inches tall and has the long, unnatural legs of a Soviet female Olympic 800-meter runner. Her breast development, of course, is that of a healthy American woman of twenty. She can wear wigs in blonde, ash-blonde, platinum, brunette and titian. Her eylids, to borrow Walter Pater’s phrase about the Mona Lisa, are “a trifle weary.” Last year she appeared in stores looking like a toed in a red jersey swimsuit. But in the 1965 deluxe model, she has been promoted; she looks very much like a bored but well-subsidized suburban matron: she sits in a stylish garden swing beside a planter, wearing a pink swimsuit and a matching fluffy bathing hat, matching earrings and matching high-heeled pumps. She looks as though she were waiting for a lover (the kind who would bring her a dozen American Beauty roses, sit at her feet all evening long,and never go near the bedroom). Mattel’s assumption seems to be that Barbie is now ready to settle down in the grand manner and that, during the year, millions of fathers will rally to buy her the Mattel trousseau. It retails at about $20. It’s very nice. Barbie is even provided with a plastic bouquet; Ken’s tuxedo comes with a cummerbund; Midge and Skipper have matching bridesmaid dresses. 1 * * *

CURLERS for the sorority meeting, a special job for the Friday-night date, another for the movie date, and a really dreamy satin formal with long gloves and a fur stole (costing $4). The company estimates that if your child buys all the available costumes for Barbie, Ken and Skipper, it would cost about $225. Considering how much time Barbie must give to changing clothes, it is clear that if she should decide to try Ken in bed she would be too worn out to make love. She is not likely to make such a decision: for her, Ken is just another accessory. If you go to a party, you need a masculine touch. That is about all that Ken Provides. This raises a serious question about Mattel’s WeltansichtCould this kind of conditioning of America’s girls cause some unworkable marriages? Is it desirable that your little girl, playing with Ken, be reared to believe that college boys are sexless? When she grows up and gets married, will she get an awful shock on her wedding night? The Mattel Corporation’s promotion staff should rethink this whole concept. They might build a man-about-town doll. They could call it Errol and design it as a man. Mattel need not be reminded that if Barbie works up a bit of passion, she would have to lay in a big store of silk lingerie, huge pillows, stylish fireplaces, bear rugs, ceiling mirrors pessaries, bidets and dozens of expensive afterdark items such as a “Motel Breakfast Smock.” or pillows, stylish fireplaces, bear rugs, ceiling mirrors, pessaries, bidets and dozens of expensive afterdark items such as a “Motel Breakfast Smock” or “Ski Cabin Hostess Gown.” Some narrow-minded fathers would write indignant letters to the company. But this, in itself, would let Errol become a rabbi. Barbie will become a nun and Ken will become an Episcopalian priest. Mattel can then offer the nation’s little girls three munificent lines of religious habits, plus singing-nun dolls, archbishop dolls and Salvation Army dolls of all ranks. The cost to the nation’s fathers would be enormous, but Mattel can assume they will be so grateful they will not complain. Possibly Mattel is too square to create either the Errol doll or the religious dolls, profitable as they might be. The Mattel creative staff is devoted to the kind of ideals that have made The Reader’s Digest what it is today. Mattel is less interested in making money than in shaping the coming generation. The company wants little girls to real&e the American feminine ideal (growing up to be a big-spending, busy, powerfuI, frigid woman): Without the Barbie training, many girls would be influenced by passive European notions about femininity.

* * * HE FICTION AND FEATURE ARTICLES in the fan magazines depict these dolls as having upper-upper-class incomes and lower-middle-class tastes. Barbie is 100 percent Caucasian, and she never associates with a racially impure person. She and her friends live in white houses with blue shutters (symbolizing the white, blue-eyed Anglo-Saxon ideal? ) whenever possible, and they strive to have big gardens filled with costly gracious-living gear. There is little or no evidence that they ever read books or listen to music. Clothes and money seem to dominate their conversations and strategies.

In volume IV, Number 1 of the Mattel Barbie I’ve got a great Magazine, Barbie says : “Midge! idea! Remember the blue dress you wore New Year’s Eve?” Midge replies, “Yes, but he’s seen that already. ” (Italics mine. ) In Volume III, Number 6, Barbie tells Midge: “I just treated myself to a marvelous dress for the Society Debs Ball. I hope Ken likes it. He’s spending so much money on the tickets.” The assumption here seems to be that, while making money is the summum bonum, spending it is even more summum-especially if you spend it on clothes. The Mattel intelligentsia apparently believes that America’s teenage boys are wild about girls’ dresses. This thesis is further developed in Volume IV, Number5: “Barbie: ‘Do you like this new dress- that I bought today? Do you like my hair fixed up this way? ” “Ken: ‘Uh.. .why yes, ,of course! I always like the way you’look. You’re as pretty as any girl inside a fashidn ‘bo~jr’.” .;~ ’ ~-’’ .>

;..

Th,e ideal American boy apparently thinks clothes make the woman. -If Ken found himself in a nudist camp, would he mentally dress each woman he encountered? ‘.’ ’

The Mattel people have never pretended that the value of Barbie and Ken is as great as the value of what they wear. Just after Christmas, economymodel Barbies were on sale in department stores for only $1.88 apiece, Kens at $1.99. Compare these prices with the $3 you have to pay for a Barbie nurse’s outfit. Even the ballet clothes for Skipper cost $2.50-51 cents more than a whole Ken on sale. The trousseau for Barbie and Ken was on sale for $17.88 in some stores this January. You can get nine on-sale Barbies for that. This situation recently caused a Macy’s salesgirl to ask: “Why do they sell the dolls cheap but not put the clothes on sale? Think it over.” It is worth thinking over. But the salesgirl is missing the broader picture. What she does not know is that Mattel’s research and design group, according to the report to the stockholders, includes graphic artists, sculptors, writers and fashion designers. These are people with a lust to influence the young. A good example of their sort of earnestness lies in the slogan coupled with a four-poster Barbie bed manufactured for Mattel: “Toys That Mold Character. ” What kind of character is it that the Mattel creative folk are molding? Let’s look at the Barbie Magazine fiction. In a short story published last March, Midge is in love with Allan (the redheaded doll put on the market last year). It seems that Midge acts too naturally to get her man. She gets all flustered in the oldfashioned way that girls used to, in novels like The Human Comedy and in plays like Ah, Wilderness ! and Romeo and Juliet. In this story, Barbie is depicted as having a “forced brightness,” and she musters it to carry out her assignment-to beef up Midge’s personality. Barbie is so surgical in her efficiency that, at one point, Midge “stared at the ceiling to get away from Barbie’s hard glance. ” “Barbie understood her friend,” the Mattel literary team says. “And felt sorry for her. Midge was not a silly girl. It was just that she plunged into every situation with all her heart.. . .Poor Midge. She felt everything keenly.” The point seems to be that Midge is hopelessly childish, that sincerity will get a boy-hunter nowhere. Fortunately Midge is exactly Barbie’s height, and she has the same busty shape ( 51&--3-43/4). Your little daughter need spend only $20 or so to rehabilitate Midge by buying her the Barbie garments needed to fascinate Allan. Once this affair gets off the ground. Allan’s sartorial passion will be aroused and he will try to keep up. Fortunately, he is exactly Ken’s size. The Mattel Corporation’s dislike of overt emotion came out again -in last year’s September-October issue, in a story entitled, “She’s a Jolly Good Fellow. ” Again, Midge was threatening to behave spontaneously. “ ‘Psst!’ she (Barbie) hissed. ‘Don’t let her see how you feel, Midge. When she comes back here, pretend it was great.’ ” In the 1963 Christmas issue, Barbie advocates even greater dissimulation. In this short story, Barbie tries to shore up the Christmas of an old lady who is a friend of her mother. Barbie feels that in this case deception is the road to happiness. She fakes a telephone conversation with her mother and later fabricates a complicated story about the old lady’s daughter. The old lady finds out. But Barbie is not downhearted. Before her tears have dried, she has invented a new lie-this time for her mother. * *

SO MUCH FOR THE LITTLE GIRLS who, in the decade from 1974 to 1984, are being equipped to take over the country with a Barbie doll personality syndrome. One feels sorry for the small boys who will grow up to be the men in their lives. A solution may be found in the work of Remco Industries, Incorporated, in Harrison, New Jersey. This company has developed a doll called “GI Joe”--“ America’s Movable Fighting Man.” After some hours of sincere play with GI Joe, your boy might well become more impolite’ hateful, ‘sadistic and subhumanly mean than he now is. The doll costs only $3.88, and you can get him a helmet and bush to hide behind for only $1. Joe is the kind of guy who would love to crash one of Barbie’s garden parties. The ensuing altercation surely would bring about a major showdown between the education departments of the Mattel Corporation and Remco Industries. For $4.88, that’s a bargain. -, - /:,tl:

Basketball officially hit the campus last night as the Waterloo warriors opened their 1969-70 OQAA season with a 75-65 victory over the University of Guelph gryphons. Although the game had been poorly publicized, there was about two-thirds capacity crowd at the game to watch a seesaw scoring battle that wasn’t decided until the last six.minutes. The score then was 69-63 for the warriors, but both teams had had 3,4, and 5 point leads converted into defecits throughout the game. Besides the warriors have had a bit of trouble toward the end of other games this year. However, Guelph did not score for close to four minutes while the warriors got six to take a twelve point lead. If groans from the stands were points, uniwat would have won in the first half of play.

A distant third in totals were Dennis Wing and Walt Lozynsky with five points each. A couple of defensive highlights, however were provided by Dave Crichton and Dale Hajdu. Hajdu was responsible for covering Dave Horton of Guelph in the last eight minutes of the game and held him scoreless for the entire period.

The Waterloo warriors have established themselves as one of the best college hockey teams in Canada. Despite a long christmas layoff they managed to spot the powerful Alberta golden bears a 3-l first period lead before rebounding for a 4-3 victory. The bears, who are undefeated in the Western Canada InterCollegiate Athletic Association, have a very strong team and must be considered, a top contender for this year’s national championship. The game, played before a sparse crowd at the Waterloo barn, started badly for the home team. Alberta dominated play most of the first period and emerged with a 3-l lead. Scoring for the bears were Tom Devaney, Mike Lemeux, and Don Falkenberg, the latter two on power plays. The warriors, who were victims of terrible timing and slow skating, hit the scoresheet at the 11:05 mark when Phil Branston fired a patented blast from the left point. The second and third periods saw the warriors regain their as they scored winning form three unanswered goals. Bob Thorpe narrowed the score to 3-2 in the second period as the warriors began to take control of the game. In the third Waterloo tied it up with a fluke goal. Roger Kropf saw his routine shot deflect off an Alberta defence-

Crichton was instrumental in giving the warriors some control of the boards during the last quarter of the game, during the last offensive effort by the gryphons. The 52 points, produced by Laaniste and Kieswetter emphasized the painful ineptness of the forwards to score. One wonders if the warriors will be able to win if either or both of the big two is off. And off, in Laaniste’s case is anything under 25 points. If Hamilton, Bilewicz, Wing or Lozynsky can develop into a consistent 10 to 12 point man,

Tomorrow 1 the aqua-warriors will be hosting the defending Canadian college champs, the U. of T. varsity blues, and a much improved lancer team from Windsor. The meet begins at 2pm in the natarium (and even in the pool). The blues are led by Olympic finalist Jim Shaw, who was fourth in both backstrokes in ‘Mexico last fall and is presently rated number one in the british Canadian excommonwealth. perts have picked Shaw to win two gold medals at Edinburgh this summer. With the addition of Canadian Theo Van Ryn; sprint champ, CIAU silver medalist in three events, Mike Guiness; OQAA individual medley champ, Terry Bryan; and CIAU butterfly champ, Bob Heatley, their-team has been picked to win their eleventh OQAA championship in a row and championship in a row and

their fifth straight Canadian title. The university of Windsor has had a competitive team for four years and has improved their team each year. They have some excellent swimmers in Dave Laing, a distance freestyler and backstroker ; Wayne Fox, a breaststroke and individual medley competitor and Robert Matlock who is outstanding in almost all events. The warriors defeated Windsor twice last year and finished ahead of them at the OQAA championships. In a dual meet this fall, Toronto beat the Waterloo splashers 80-26. With their increasing strength, the warriors hope to defeat Windsor and close the gap on Toronto. Uniwat’s George Roy, who has scored, 54 points in competition this year, at present has the fastest 200-yard butterfly time in Canadian college competition. Doug Lorriman is also listed in the top seven in his specialty,

on weekend the difficult 1000-y&d freestyle. With the emergence of sprinter Brian Cartiledge to complement Warren Page, the warriors should show much stronger in these events.The co-op system has returned Haig Moreton, the middle distance swimmer, and Brian Marshall, a welcome addition in the butterfly events. With the double dual meet, diving fans will see competition on both the one and three-metre boards. Brian Gateman and Jim Delaire of Windsor will compete with John Lee and Bud Hummel of Toronto and Brian Hilko and Lester Newby of uniwat. Up till Christmas the Waterloo divers were undefeated ~ in one-metre competition. The pool gallery will open about 12: 30 and there is no charge for admission.

The university of Waterloo basketball athenas bounce back into action sporting a 7-O record I for last term. The b-ballers averaged 57 points a game with a scoring total of 396 points in seven games. The defence has given up only 200 points. The Waterloo girls have defeated McMaster, Western, Guelph, and Toronto in exhibition play, with at least a 15-point margin in each game. As defending champions of the Ontario-Quebec women’s conference of intercollegiate athletics, the athenas remain at the top by virtue of wins over Laurentian, York and Windsor. With only seven weeks remaining until the final championship in Toronto, the athenas have a heavy _ schedule with ten games and an exhibition tourney before the finals. In the exhibition tournament, to be held in Hamilton on january 15 and 16, the athenas will meet city teams including the London igrads and the Tonawanda shamrocks. The style of play for this tourn\

ament will be more experienced and perhaps a bit rougher than the style that the athenas are accustomed to. The athenas have five home games remaining for the term with their . first appearance as host on january 27 when they entertain York. Back with the Athenas is Pam Snively who was sidelined in the first game of the season with a knee injury. Snively had the medial cartilage of her left knee removed early in december and is returning to work out with the team this week. Her accurate outside shooting will add strength and depth to the 1 athenas’ offence. The athenas are now without the services of Toos Simons, ,a center, who was in fourth position on the team scoring list behind Gaskin, Bland and Shaule. The key to the athenas style is their speed. The Waterloo team generally outscores their opponents by the largest margin in the final quarter when the other team tires. 1 \ Action on the road starts on tuesday when the athenas travel three blocks to meet Lutheran for the first time this season. i

to it. How?” And then they sat down together think it out. Pooh’s first idea was that they should dig a Very Deep Pit, and then the Heffalump would come along and fall into the Pit, and“Why?” said Piglet. ! “Why what?” said Pooh. “Why would he fall in?’ _ Pooh rubbed his nose with his paw; and said that the Heffalump might be walking along, humming a little song, and looking up at the sky, vvondering if it .would rain, and SO he wouldn’t see the Very Deep Pit until he was half-way down, when it would be too late. Piglet said that this was a very good Trap. but supposing it were raining already? Pooh rubbed his nose again, and said that \

NE DAY, when Christopher Robin and Winnie- the-Pooh and Piglet were at!l talk - ing together, Christopher Robin finished the mouthful he was .eating and said carelessly. :“I saw a Heffalump to-day, Piglet. I’ 1 “What was it doing?” asked Piglet. ’ “Just lumping along,” said Christopher.

ened up, and said that, if it were ,raining already, the Heffalump would be looking at the sky wondering if it would clear up, and so he wouldn’t see the Very Deep Pit until he was half-way down.... When it would be too late. Piglet ‘said that, now that this point had been explained, he thought it was a Cunning Trap. Pooh was very proud when he heard this, and he felt that the Heffalump was as good as caught already, but there was just one ot.her thing which had to be thought about, and it was this. Where should they dig the / Very Deep Pit? Piglet said that the best place would be somewhere where a Heffalump was, just before he fell into it, only about a foot farther on. ,

.,-

had HUNNY written on it, but, just to make sure, he took off the paper cover and looked at it, and it looked just like- honey. “But you never can tell,” said Pooh. ‘7 remember my uncle saying once that he had seen cheese just this in, and took a colour. ” So he put his tongue large lick. “Yes,” he said, “it is. No doubt about that. And honey, I should say, right down to the bottom of the jar. Unless, of course,” he said, “‘somebody put cheese in at the bottom ijust for a joke. Perhaps I had better go a little further...just in case...in case Heffalumps don’t like cheese....same as me...Ah!” And he gave the a deep sigh. ‘)I was right. It is honey,-right way down.” Having made certain of this, he took the jar back to Piglet, and Piglet looked up from the bottom of his Very Deep Pit, and said, “Got

’

sleep, the more he couldn’t. He tried Counting Sheep, which is som%times a good way of getting to sleep, and, as that was no good, he tried counting Heffalumps. And that Iwas Because every Heffalump that he worse. counted was making straight for a ,/pot of .Pooh’s honey, and eating it all. For some minutes he lay there miserably, but when the five hundred and eighty-seventh Heffalump was and saying to itself, “Very licking its jaws: good honey this, I don’t know when I’ve tasted better,” Pooh could bear it no longer. He jum.ped out of bed, he ran out of the house, and he ran straight to the Six Pine Trees. The Sun was still in bed, but there was a lightness in the sky over the Hundred Acre ’ Wood which seemed to show that it was waking up and would soon be kicking off the

clothes. In the half-light the Pine Trees looked cold and lonely, and the Very Deep Pit seemed deeper than it was, and Pooh’s jar of honey at the bottom was something mysterious. a shape and no more. But as he got nearer to it his nose told him tha,t it was indeed honey, and his tongue came out and began to polish \ 1 up his mouth, ready for it. “Bother!” said Pooh, as he got his nose inhas been eating it!” side the jar. “A Heffalump And then he thought a little and said, *‘Oh, no, ,I did. I forgot. ” Indeed, he had eaten most of it. But there was a little left at the very bottom of the jar, and he pushed his head right in, and began to lick,.. By and by Piglet woke up. As soon as he woke he said to himself, “Oh!” Then he said

“Not if ,he was looking at the sky. “ “He would Suspect,” said Pooh, “if he happened to look down.” He thought for a long time and then added sadly, “It isn’t as easy as I thought. I suppose that’s why Heffalumps hardly ever get caught.” “That must be it,” said Piglet. They sighed and got up; and when they had taken a few gorse prickles out of themselves they sat down again; and all the time Pooh was saying to himself, ‘If only I could think of some thing. 1” For he felt sure that a Very Clever Brain could catch a Heffalump if only he knew the right way to go about it. “Suppose.” he said to Piglet, “you wanted to catch me, how would you do it?” /

He had murmured this to himself three times in a singing sort of way, when suddenly he remembered. He had put it into the Cunning Trap to catch the Heffalump. “‘Bother!” said Pooh. ‘It all comes of trying to be kind to Heffalumps.” And he got back into bed. But he couldn’t sleep. The more he tried to I he got nearer he was sure that there- would, because he could hear it heffalumping about it like anything. #‘Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear!” said Piglet to himselic.

And all the time Winnie-the-Pooh had been trying to get the hone y-jar off his head. The more ‘he ’ shook it, the more tightly it stuck. “Bother!” he said, inside the jar, and “0 h, help!” and, mostly “Ow!” And he tried bumping it against things, but as he couldn’t see what he was bumping it against, it didn’t help him; and he tried to climb out of the Trap, but as he could see nothing but jar, and not much of that, he couldn’t find his way.

“Certaihly you make good honey.but is that enough,?” . “Most students are looking for more than money after they says Ron Wing, a 1968graduate B.A. in economics graduate,” from the University of Saskatchewan at Regina. ‘Sure, a lot of them want to make a bundle fast, but there’s a lot more to getting started on the right career. You’ve got to have the training and confidence to do your job well. Yet nobody wants to sit around some office for four or five years getting so-called ‘experience’ before he’s allowed into sales. ’ That’s why I was attracted to London Life. This company made sure my training was effective, and within three months I was ready to‘start out on my own.

LIMITED

BACKGROUND In 1967 two solid and long-established companies and their subsidiaries joined forces in a dovetailed operation that represents wider geographical dispersion and greater product diversification. The integration brought with it a new name: Consolidated-Bathurst Limited. Consolidated Paper Corporation Ltd. had been linked traditionally with newsprint, Bathurst Paper Ltd. largely with packaging paperboards and containers made from paperboards. Consolidated-Bathurst is 93% Canadian owned, with its Head Office in Montreal. Sales in 1968 were $295 million. The Company harvests 22,000 sq. miles of woodlands and operates eight mills and some thirty converting plants in Canada. The Company has manufacturing subsidiaries in the United States and in West Germany. One of Canada’s largest producers of newsprint, Consolidated-Bathurst has about half of its total dollar sales in packaging materials in paper, wood and plastic. It also sells bleached kraft pulp and has a wood products group of five sawmills.

Who would have dreamed that 25 years after the defeat of Hit: ler, x Germany would move to expe/ a fascist Greece from the council of Europe while the U.S. lobbied unsuccessfully to block its expulsion?-I.F. Stone.

GUELPH(CINS)-A coroner’s jury was told in december that a university of Guelph student probably had a better chance of getting prompt medical attention than a local citizen. The jury found that 18-year-old Susan Brown, a first semester arts student from ‘f’oronto, died act. 31 of virus pneumonia. Coroner Walter Scott noted that the inquiry was requested by several Guelph students. Evidence showed that Brown had felt slightly ill after -returning to the university from a weekend visit home sunday, act. 26. She complained of feeling worse monreceived a prescription day, for drugs from the student health service tuesday, said she was feeling better Wednesday and was found dead in her room thursday . While it was clearly established there had been no medical negligence in the girl’s death, the jury recommended that the student health center staff include two full-time nurses on duty mondayfriday around the clock and one nurse on duty 24-hours-a-day during the weekend. The jurors also suggested more attention be given by both the nursing and visiting medical staff of the center to seeing ill students in their rooms and that all students should be briefed on enrolment about the extent of the health centre facilities. The jury adopted a suggestion of Brown’s father, A.M. Brown, an armed forces psychologist, and recommended that doctors in residence be notified by health center authorities if a student were ill in order to better keep track of the student’s progress. William Howitt, a Guelph physician who is also the center’s medical director, said the service, which would~ be augmented early in 1970 with a 14-bed infirmary, was adequate but not perfect. Three years ago, the university had one nurse on staff, he recalled. Provost Paul Gilmor, said the university hopes to hire a fulltime doctor to head the health center in 1970. P

feedback Ukruinians the uncubied

be merciful russiuns

to 5-

Tell me &iy there exists this bitter rivalry between the rus&an and Ukrainian factions of the arts milieu of this great and wonderful university. Upon a few occasions I have epcountered (in the Chevron) articles wherein an irate Ukrainian seems to be expounding cultural virtues and superiority, and accusing others of theft and disrespect. The russian club appears to be mainly composed of nonrussians who can barely distinguish between the beauty and awesomeness of the Ukrainian folk lore, and the cultural dungheap encompassing that of the russians. I concede that you (Ukrainian club) may have the’ superior culture, and that your arrogance may be justified; but please why must you be so insistent and so persistent. To my knowledge there has not been, as yet, any persecution or program launched against the Ukrainian cultural traditions in Canada. Oh yes! You have dedicated your lives to the liberation of the Ukraine ( I read your poster) Your brave struggle sets my proud Quebec heart aflutter. And in the future when you attach a misdemeanor to the russian club, be foferant (omni-potence requires charity andi mercy) for they are young and1 foolish, and usually do not know/ what they do. But please do not use their errors as a sickle and hammer to attach your stigma upon the word “russian”, since under the dungheap there may be some beauty; besides russian tradition has produced one great virtue - vodka - even though it was brewed from Ukrainian. grain. Tsk! tsk! After all what is the rape of mother Russia going to giver her son-quite a strange satisfaction it seems. EUGENE SACEVICH physics 4

Math facdty creates automarta for mgirchiaaes

’

I am about to put the finishing touches on what I consider to be four of the most bitterly disappointing years of my life. And the worst part is I hadn’t noticed because I didn’t have the chance to stop and look around. The case in point is the mathematics faculty. In the heady

Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice

grip of their “international repare forgetting u&@n ’ they theif obligations to people. What is happening? In first year now you write an Ml32 test (cqmputer worship) every two weeks and-you sacrifice an evening to do it. You write a calculus test once every three weeks depending on the professor ‘s discretion (or lack of it). And just to keep your hand in, you write 5 “minor” tests throughout the term in algebra, which along with assignments provide the grade for the term. And assignments too! What almighty purpose does it serve to keep people tense for weeks at a time writing tests? These are just the math courses. What about people majoring in science who are obliged to take these courses on the side? I really don’t understand the exam - assignment - test - midterm runaroundunless its a facade behind which to conceal inconsistent and even incompetent instructors. Who really cares whether there are nebulous characters of international renown sitting behind desks somewhere in the castle? Since th&y rarely con-s descend to teach undergraduate courses, and since they are ten lousy instrtictors anyhow, then they are free to sit and ruminate while their physical presence blesses all who passthrough these doors! Meanwhile the. everlasting

parade of mediocre graduate students, who aren’t even interested in people and their courses continues. It doesn’t get any better in upper years. Your mind just’ grows numb, which is the whple point of the exercise anyhow. A lot. of people have and will graduate from this university without ever having had time to read a good book on some topic other than their major study. That, if you please, is a disgrace to the academic community and a personal tragedy! This great complex is turning out mindless automata who don’t even get a chance to notice what’s happening. We have sold our souls to the machines!

The atrocities that Nixon condonesand continues by I.F. Stone Washington,

D.C,

The - Pinkville massacre falls into perspective if we remember that from the first days of the struggle against the french general Giap’s strategy has been to fight a “people’s war.” Without our ever fully realizing it, ours has become an “anti-people’s” war. Some years ago an american colonel I who was never identified, put it very plainly. Mao Tse-Tung, the foremost theoretician of the people’s war, said that the guerrilla swims among the people as a fish does in the sea. The U.S. Colonel said we would “dry up the sea.” Our strategy has been to destroy the villages and the crops, to drive out or kill the people, wherever we suspect viet tong. We set out to create a desert where no “fish” could live. The soldiers at Pinkville may not have been ordered to kill women and children but they were certainly ordered to burn down the village and kill the livestock, to destroy their homes and their food supply. If the main target of a people’s war is to win the confidence and support of the peasantry, the main target of an antipeople’s war is to uproot or destroy the peasantry the guerrillas may have won over. From such a strategy Pinkvilles come naturally. In the rules of war, soldiers and civilians used to be separate categories. The strategy of the anti-people’s war has given us that legal monstrosity we now read about-the “innocent civilian.” This implies that some civilians are innocent and some are guilty. The latter are not only’ fair game but the safe rule .when in doubt is to shoot first and investigate later, or just add them to the body count. Horrible as this may sound, it has its logic and the logic grows stronger as the spiral of hate mounts on both sides. The guerrillas use civilians in their area-like the home population in any war-for many auxiliary tasks. The civilians-including women and children-take up those tasks ever more willingly as they see their homes and livetheir menfolk and ancestral stock, graves, destroyed by indiscriminate (bombing and artillery fire and by “search missions like the one in and destroy” Pinkville. Relations are not improved by calling them “gooks” or- more politely, as in Lt. Calley’s indictment-“oriental human beings. ” They retaliate with homemade mines and booby traps, including the pbnji, ‘the sharpened stick coated with exrement. The biggest and dirtiest booby trap of all is the filthy pit of this war itself, from which we emerge stinking in the nostrils of mankind.

There is a flurry of stories from Saigon about “reindoctrinating” troops on the humane treatment of civilians. But we are dealing here not with an occasional atrocity but with a deliberate policy. What a fear-crazed and hate-filled GI may do in occupying a hostile village can be put down to the brutalization of war. The real crime is higher up. When the president announced that he was revising our chemical and bacteriological warfare program and sending the Geneva protocol to the senate for ratification, it looked like a gesture of contrition. It turned out to be the most hypocritical kind of public relations, for it excepted from these restrictions the two weapons of gas and chemical warfare from which the civilian population of Vietnam suffer most. These are the tear and lung gases which drive them out of their homemade bombing shelters into the open where our B-52s and fragmentation “anti-personnel” bombs can destroy them, and the herbicides which

But how much reliance can be placed on this restriction remains to be seen and the crop-killing itself goes on. So will the civilian-killing via the tear gas route. The government’s position is that the Geneva protocol does not cover tear gas. The protocol itself speaks of “asphyxiating, poisonous or other gases. ” The British government ever since 1930, like many other signatories of the protocol, has held that tear gases, too, protocol, ‘has held that tear gases, too, are outlawed. Congressman McCarthy (D.-N.Y.) told a Montreal audience december 1 that when in .London he heard the U.S. government was pressuring the british government to change its position on tear gas. This is not academic in Britain. Imagine the massacre during the blitz if the nazis had been able to flush people out of the subways and other shelters with tear gases before the bombing, as we do in Vietnam. The enormous quantities of tear and lung gas we use in Vietnam-almost 14 million pounds since 1964, or more than half the total weight of the mustard gases used by both sides in world war I-testify how far we have gone from exceptional use in “riot-like’ ’ circumstances to routine application before bombardment. These- are the atrocities Nixon con-D.C. Gazette (LNSI dones and continues. J

U.S.3 surplus PhD’s pile up-Canada’swheat DENVER (GINS)-John Leo left Chicago and its stockyards two weeks ago to come here and offer himself for sale in one of academia’s stock pens: the modern language association convention. In search of a job teaching english, Leo rode to Denver on a train. The planes were all full. When he finally got here and found all the hotels full, it was almost a parable. Some of his Northwestern university classmates let him sleep on the floor of their room in the Hilton. When Leo started interviewing, he found that the job market was as crowded as Denver itself. He is still unemployed. Leo and 1,700 other would-be English and foreign language professors have found that there is no room for them. They find themselves unemployed, not because they dropped out but because they stayed in too long, went the whole ivory tower route, 20 years or more, and got their PhDs. Now they are told that there are a lot more degrees than jobs. The modern language association, a professional organization made up of english and foreign language professors, says that this is by far the worst job market since the second world war. But the languages are not alone. University jobs are tight across the board, from political science and history to physics and chemistry. University hiring in all fields fell off over 50 percent in 1968, according to MLA president Henry Nash Smith, and this year is worse. Americans have always been good at assembly lines and the professors concede that this is part of the prob22

lem. Ever since the war, the PhD mills have been enlarged and revved up to produce more and more degrees faster and faster. In english, the total jumped from 400 in 1960 to almost 900 this year. As James Goldberg, a PhD who has been looking for his first job for over a year now, told an overflow audience at an MLA jobs forum: “We’re a glut on the market.” The number of university department chairmen who came to Denver this year helps to tell the story. In 1965 there were 739 chairmen; in 1968 there were 558 ; in 1969 there are 268. The number of job-seekers in Denver is down, too, dropping off from 2800 in New York last year to 1700 this year. But MLA officials say that the actual number of students who need jobs is up sharply, this year over last. To reduce the number of PhDs, MLA is attempting to persuade universities to apply some control measures to their. doctoral programs, according to MLA staffer Michael Shugrue. Columbia university, for example, has decided to cut its english PhD program in half next year. The university of California at Berkeley is cutting back from 490 to 300. As the major graduate schools change their shape, other universities are expected to follow. But young, ambitious schools like Washington’s American university are setting up new PhD programs to win prestige. The situation is aggravated by the tight economy and the forced budget cuts at many state institutions. The students blame the cuts on the Vietnam war-the reason

many students went to graduate school in the first place. Prof Darwin Turner told a crowd of unemployed doctoral candidates here that they should consider teaching in the junior colleges. While major universities have levelled off, he said, the junior colleges are continuing to multiply. In the past eight years, their number has increased from 400 to over 1000. But the junior colleges do not recruit at MLA because many do not want PhDs. Moreover, most young PhDs are not anxious to go to junior colleges where they fear that they would teach not Melville and Goethe, but elementary english. MLA officials say that the foreign languages are in better shape than english, but not much. Elizabeth Miller, who attended Woodrow Wilson high school, Georgetown university and is now finishing her PhD in french at Catholic university, wrote 200 letters to department chairmen before coming to Denver. She still has no job. She goes almost every hour of the day to a basement room in her hotel here to look at the chart&&ich fill one wall of the faculty exchange. If a student finds a check after his number, he goes to a clerk who tells him when and where ‘a-chairman has scheduled an interview. Miller has had . 10 interviews but many.others have had none. A study of a sample of 200 universities conducted this year showed that in 1969 they hired 6000 new faculty members in all fields. Last year that figure dropped to 1450 and this year it is expected to decrease further. John Leo wears a button that says Blake Power after the 18th century mystic poet, William Blake. But this year he will need stronger clout if he is going to find work in the real world.

Scary understatement of a non-moral science by about 100 for each of the next four Science dean William Pearson’s december 9 report to the years. science facultv council makes Achievement of a steady state must for the university; a series of interesting statements I Provide problems which can be readily neutralabout universities in general, ’ mistakes ized in a period of rapid growth may be and uniwat in particular. costly in a steady state existence. There

The entire follows.

text of that. report

* * * The first half of the report is one of the few public hints of an admission that uniwat’s deliberate policy of growing as fast as possible might have been just a little greedy and shortsighted. Anyone who has looked beneath the veneer of uniwat’s wowlook - at - us - aren’t - we - dynamic exterior knows not ‘only the truth but also the understatement of Pearson’s comments. The second half of Pearson’s report is a little more scary. The university as the seat of knowledge, the seeker of truth and the home of pure research “must accept the external assessment of the referees of the granting agencies.” In most cases this is the national research council, a body for whom Pearson was employed before his sudden and mysterious appointment as uniwat science dean. But in other cases, this means the direction of research is to be granted entirely to the defence research board,\ private enterprise and occasionally the american government. I One must not forget, however, that the primary salaries of the faculty members doing the research and the administration, buildings and grounds they use are all paid for by the taxpayers. Success, status and the opportunity to supervise (or teach) students comes not graduate through excellence in teaching but through having one’s name on academic papers and by convincing some external body that one is capable of doing research to their specifications and presumably, to their advantage.’ _-And finally, Pearson does note that the market is now glutted with PhD’s in science. This, of course, has been done at great expense to the taxpayers and the students ‘themselves. I It’s really unfortunate there’s nothing pressing in the world like ecology to keep ihem relevantly employed. The statement:

You will have read accounts of the university’s brief to the committee on university affairs last month in which it was stated- that the university will, achieve its maximum size in a very few years. Several faculties have already essentially achieved their maximum enrolments. Science is fortunate in being the smallest faculty and still having the ability- to increase its number of students

is a growing consciousness in the university that standards must be raised as the steady state is approached, if we are to end up with a first-class university. . \ What happened in the past cannot be allowed relevance to what must happen from now on, if we are to end up with the best university that is possible. We must look more closely in our assessment of standards for appointments, for promotion and for merit, and compare ourselves, not only, with ourselves, but with professors at the best universities in the province. Furthermore, full professors must be assessed on performance at a higher standard than assistant or associate professors are assessed; where more is given, more is also expected. A high level of creativity both in teaching and research can be the only acceptable criterion for accelerated advancement. Those displaying limited creativity may indeed end up as career associate professors, such possibilities must be considered seriously. In seeking to end up with the highest standards when the steady state is achieved, science, as I said, is fortunate in still being able to expand slowly, but we must be careful to ensure that any new faculty appointments that can be made are now filled by people of the highest standards and ability, so that the good beginnings that the faculty has made can be properly consolidated while it is still possible. Thus we intend finally to achieve a faculty that will be looked up to by its students and of which Canada will be conscious. There are several faculty members who do not receive any grants. in aid of research, and their number is likely to increase in 1970. It seems to me to be quite wrong that they should, except possibly in very special circumstances, continue to supervise graduate students, inadequately supported on departmen ta1 funds. We must accept the external assessment of the referees of the granting agencies. Nevertheless, such people having got PhD’s have been recognised as capable in doing guided research, even though they have not proved too ‘successful in initiating and guiding research. Since it is considered good for teaching experience that people do not entirely give up research, it will be suggested that people in ‘this category collaborate with an active faculty member who receives research grants, accepting guided research. In this way the supervisor will obtain assistance with his research and the professor without grants, in joining an active research team, will have an opportunity of getting his name on publications so that eventually and hopefully he will again succeed in getting research grants of his own. The graduate committee will have to review the status as graduate supervisors, of people who are in the grant-less category. As a general principle, those without, or with a very weak research position wili be expected to carry a greater teaching load than those receiving large grants and bearing the main brunt of training the best graduate students in the faculty. Finally, we must come to regard the MS degree as a means of rounding out a student’s undergraduate training and making him a complete scientist. The matter of producing PhD’s must ultimately relate to the ability of PhD supervisors to obtain good jobs in Canada for their students, if they so wish. W.B. PEARSON Dean of Science.

Like the Committee of presidents’ report “Order on the campus”, the university jurisdiction statement published in this week’s Gazette says nothing new about discipline. It’s just another attempt to show ,a jittery bourgeoisie that the situation is well in hand. It sometimes appears, however, that a lot of people such as Howie Petch and Spiro Agnew really believe ’ that tough laws will put an end to all this trouble. Petch’s refusal to give up the quest for a code of conduct certainly suggests that this is the I case. But there are a lot of other people who do realize that all this law and order is utter idiocy, who will also miss the point. They’re the ones who will expend all their energies (as our student council doubtlessly will) denouncing double jeopardy and debating whether the interim advisory committee should report to Howie Petch or have the final say in matters of discipline. It will be understandable in a way if this does happen, because the authoritarian nature of the administration’s disciplinary powers just begs for all kinds of critical comment. In fact, the admin boys would probably be downright pleased to have a hassle about the discipline procedures, and they wouldn’t even lose ‘any sleep if they had to make. a few concessions. The ‘more “democratic” the administration of discipline is, the better for them. What could be more convenient than having a bunch of uncle tom students and profs’enforcing the rules? In the long run, even if their own little judicial system and code of conduct are totally frustrated by the opposition, about the only thing that will suffer is the public image. All the power of the state is as close as Howie Petch’s telephone. What has to be understood is that the administrators are not just making the rules to con-

trol violence,, they’re making the violence too. ’ The reason is that the structureof the university does not provide any means of making changes, except by force. Changes that are made occur only if the administrators are in favour of them. They, a minority, have the legal power to impose them on everybody’ else. If you disagree, you may choose between submitting and getting out. If anyone else has an idea for changing something, he has the privilege of petitioning the authorities in charge, and there are lots of advisory committees to make this convenient. The essence of the system is force, because it is legalized force that makes the -administration able to make decisions. Those who are so foolhardy as to disagree and yet try to ,stay around and change things find that they run out of proper channels. They have to invent new channels, which are then met with anything from dismissal to the police. Moreover, there is a strange concept of freedom which places individual interests far above any-kind of responsibility to one’s fellow man. Thus the administration will defend to the death a man who does research on germ warfare, because there is an inviolable freedom of inquiry, while crushing, physically if necessary, those who ibelieve that filling the atmosphere with disease is a crime against humanity and are compelled by the absence of any ability to stop it to resort to “disruption! of the normal functions of the university’? The real j struggle that the statement on discipline points to is not against the rules themselves. It is against a structure of the university, and ultimately society, which gives minority the power to dominate all the rest. It is’against a system which renders any attempt at creativity, and democratic change as an act of disruption.
