OTC CreditDenied ToHarvesters• STUDENT HARVES-

ters have been throwninto a state of confusion atToronto and Queen's uni-versities, where no officialstatement had been issuedfrom COTC headgtiartersconcerning the report thatthe harvesters would not begranted credit for time lostfrom COTC parades .

The order from National Defens eheadquarters stated that the har-vesters would not receive creditfor COTC time lost during theirabsence, all students must put Inthe required 110 hours of militarytraining during the year,

LEAVE ASSUREDAssurance had prerloualy been

given to the harvesters that theywould receive leave of absence forall drills missed. This assuranceis not believed to have been offi-elal, however.

Dr. R. C. Wallace, Principal ofQueen's University, wan quoted inthe Varsity, published by Toron-to University, as saying, "It scarce-ly seems reasonable to expect thesemen to perform their regular ser-vices as well as the added one ofhelping to gather western crops,which they did because they fel tit to be a national service, and thatthey were needed."

McGILL CREDITSMcGill University had no trou-

ble. Principal James, of McGill ,was told the Department of Na-tional Defense will give studentscredit for, any parades missedthrough their absence in the warwork by H. F. G. Letson, Adju-tant-General, Department of Na-tional Defence at Ottawa.

Clarification of the situation isexpected with the return of theharvesters.

Explanation• The UBYSSEY , regrets tha t

many students misinterprete dthe story carried in the issue ofFriday, October 31, on the financ-ing of the first football game. Thestory was intended to convey tothe Student Body that, althougha profit was actually made on th egame, that an estimated lass of$100 dollars was Incurred throughfaulty arrangements for ticketsales. Apparently most renders in -fered that an actual loss of $100was taken on the game.

ENCOURAGED"Results of the ticket sales have

been encouraging so far, but willhave to be outstanding if we areto raise the $1,750 needed .to pur -chase the ambulance as a UBCChristmas gift," stated Bill Mer •car, War Aid Council representa -tive, in charge of the raffle.

"Each student, by purchasing a tleast fifty cents worth of raffl etickets, will help to give UBC abig boat and will stand a goodchance of winning a valuabl eprize," Mercer said. "We also wishto imprea upon the students tha tthis raffle is not restricted to thecampus. Tickets may be sold any-where ."

Ambulance DriveAll next week the War Aid Council wil l

be staging a campaign to raise funds fo rUBC's "Ambulance Before Christmas" drive.

This will be the major function of thefall term, and it will be the beginning of awar aid campaign which, it is hoped, wil lsurpass last year's commendable effort.

Here is the best opportunity for thos emembers of the Student Body who hav eshown such energy in inter-faculty fight,in the past few days, to step out with areally useful display of faculty spirit .

Last year the mighty men of Science setout with a tremendous drive and did thei rbest to make the "Mile of Pennies" a Scienceproject,

The Artamen as usual did nothing muchabout it with the result that, in spite of theirlarger enrollment, the Arts line was far be -hind the redshirts. The competition from theArmy, headed by Sergeants Mullins andHeffernan, gave the "Mile of Pennies" areal flavor of competition.

This year there have been dull rum-bllngs from the Arta faculty about what the yare going to do to the Engineers, Now ,however, it seems to have descended into aflare of spirit which lead to a few sillyfights and it looks very much as if it willend there.

Our information is that the Scienceme nintend to assert their assumed superiorit yby taking the lead in all campus war drive sas well as in social activities .

What is even more to the point, the gen-eral opinion on the campus is that they willdo it. The lowly Artamen have, as yet, toprove that they have come to, and that theyare willing to take the Engineers on at any -thing from marbles to support for the wareffort, and that doesn't just mean supportfor a future "Mile of Pennies" either, butin every other that will be held next week toraise money for the ambulance fund .

Maybe the "Filthy Five" will have anobjection to raise to 'this,

A. W. S.

Transportation ProblemUBC's transportation problem is grow-

ing more serious daily. Every day the num-ber of people who used to come to the cam -pus by car is being reduced, and the bussesgrow more crowded. Those who still man -age to ride out by car are contemplatingever-thinner ration books and are beginningto lay plans to join the great unwashed inthe mad scramble for breathing space on theearly morning B.C. Electric shift .

Nevertheless, some people who have carsstill come out in the morning or head in atnight with their cars either half-filled orwith only, a driver in it.

It would not mean more than a few se-cond's delay to these people to stop andpick up a few of the gang that are standingon the corners waiting their turn to get o nthe bus. It would coat them no more tobring a full carload out to the campus thanit would to run their auto out here withonly the driver in it. All over the conti-nent transportation systems are creakingunder the burden of huge increases in their

rangers and any measure which will ro-ve the

would be appreciated .

There is a possibility that the earlylectures will be staggered to help alleviatethe situation . This would mean that someof the lectures would start ten or fifteenminutes earlier than at present and otherswould continue tb take up at 8;90 .

The plan is now being investigated byFaculty and student representatives and i tis expected that they will reach a decision

• soon.Judging by the number of atu' d nth

that have copse into the Publication offic eto suggest plans to overcome the transporta-tion difficulties there will be no trouble ingetting student co-operation for any pro-gram which will enable the bus service t ofunction properly. It should not be diffi-cult to hit on an arrangement suitable t othe members of the Faculty who will be af-fected by changes in the early morningtime-tables.

A step of this nature would be in lin ewith the policies of other institutions face dwith a similar problem, and it should be agreat aid in finding a solution to the prob-lem,

Pass The Ammunition"Praia the Lord and Paw the Ammuni-

tion," the currently popular song hit, hasdrawn the fire of the Seattle clergy on th egrounds that it is sacreligious .

Personally, we think that the song isjust about the best to come out of the presentwar, at least from the point of view of afighting song.

One thing that has been notably absentthis war, are the real swingy fighting songsthat featured the First Great War. The citi-zens of Tin Pan Alley seem to have got thebug for sentimental droollngs which havesuch an effect on morale that the BritishBroadcasting Corporation has seen fit to ba nthem. Almost every night we can sit by theradio and listen to some syrupy voico groan-ing something about, "Dear-ma-I-sure-miss-you-and-aren't-these-Japs-awful-causing-us -to-have-to-fight-and-boy-will-we-lick-them . "

The net result of this kind of gong is thatevery one feels sorry for himself, and,even if they are entitled to, it is not theproper attitude for fighting actions which ar einspired with fighting talk and songs .

The Germans have fighting, marchingsongs which have been instilled into theyoung people which have the effect of add-ing to their fighting spirit. "Praise theLord and Pass the Ammunition" seems toembody the whole idea of the United nations .

We feel that to maintain what we believein we must be willing to keep our beliefs ,but also be prepared to fight like the devilfor them. We seems to remember our his-tory books tell us that Cromwell told hisboys to "Trust in God and keep your pow -der dry," that may not be exact, but it wasvery similar to that.

That is the sort of thing we need moreof in this war . It is only right to keep inmind that we are doing our best to kee pthe Christian principles alive, but we cannotafford to forget that we will have to fightlike the Axis devils to do it.

It is quibbling over matters like thisthat causes a great deal of disrespect for theclergy. Many of them opposed the VictoryDagger as the symbol of the Victory Loan ,as they felt it was not Christian to have sucha symbol in a Christian nation . They forgetthat it is weapons of destruction which willsave the United Nations from the complet eloss of their right to their beliefs, the rightto determine those beliefs. In fact it is quib-bling like this that sends more people to thegolf links and the gardens on Sunday morn-ings around 11 o 'clock .

So we say lets have "Praise the Lor dand Pass the Ammunition," and let's havemore songs like it .

For TheEngineers

• THE BOMBARDIER isthe key man of a whole

bomber crew, for he is res.ponsible for the airplaneduring the "bombing run, "Dr. Everett W. Thatcher, co-ordinator of civilian pilottraining at Union College,Schenectady, declared in aGeneral Electric ScienceForum address given in col-laboration with the U. S.Army Air Forces,

Speaking on the subject of"The Bombardier and HisJob," Dr. Thatcher said that,in effect, the bombardier ha!control over the direction offlight, the speed of flight, an dthe height of the airplanewhen ready to bomb an ob-jective .

"What he (the bombardier) says,goes," the speaker averted,

Dr . Thatcher pointed out that thewhole science of aviation ha nudelong strides since the first WorldWar, when pilots took "pot shots"at their enemies with a pistol orone machine gun .

COMPIIX Iturrat MENTh"The greeted single advance has

been in the science of aerial bom-bardment," he explained, "Nowa-days, the bombardier has to use avery fine complex instrument,with sighting devices nd dozensof 'levers, switches, and dials whic hhe must turn on, adjust, set andoperate. And this bombing ap-paratus is amazingly accurate . "

"There are certain fundamentalprinciples of aerial bombing thatare not secret," Dr . Thatcher con-tinued "Wind direction is one ofthe factors to be considered. Andthe strength of that wind may varyconsiderably at various altitudes ,another factor that complicates thesituation .

"Other factors are the density ofthe air at different levels; the bal-listic characteristics of the bomb ,the variable speed of fall from dif-ferent heights, and the density o fthe air which is not constant a tvarious levels all the time,"

COURAGEThe bombardier must have a

tremendous amount of rhea phy-sical courage, Dr. Thatcher pointedout, to take the ship through'enemyanti-aircraft fire and the fire ofenemy aircraft, but "he must hav egreat powers of concentration, tostick to his job, look through hissights, and manipulate the manycomplex controls of the bombingjust as if nothing else was happen-ing around him."

Dr. Thatcher said there Is a cer-tain instant when the bombs mustbe released if everything has beenarranged properly In advance, andthe ship is on the exact course. Ifthe bomb is released at that in-stant, he said, it should theoreti-cally hit the target.

BOMB RELEASEDThe speaker said the bombardier

knows when that instant is becausehe has a sighting device that tellshim. But, he pointed out, the bom-bardier has to have mighty goodvision and a very steady set ofnerves to do the right thing at tha tsplit second.

The bombs are released usuallyby electricity, he said, because it I sfaster and more accurate that way .They are dropped from the bom brack—this is ordinarily amidships.

High altitude precision bombin gcan be done with great success, "Dr. Thatcher said. "That is whythe U. S . Air Force has specialize din this type of attack. That is whyIt has developed such marvelou sequipment. That is why it is train-ing its bombardiers so thoroughly"

• DOWN at the University o fWashington at Seattle they

have completed a great big lob ofapple-polishing . And everyoneconcerned could feel proud of him-s eelf.

At the beginning of October th estudents were called upon by Uni-versity President L .P . Slag to helpout with Washington's hard-press-ed labour situation . He suggeste dcampus registration for part-tim ejobs. Shortly after, the appl epowers of the Yakima and Wen-atchee Valleys asked help of thestudents in picking their recor dcrop .

Immediately faculty and stu-dents, led by the organized fret -entity and sorority houses, swun ginto action and with*; the weekhad arranged for about 1000 under -graduates to spend a week-endpicking apples.

• ON THURSDAY, October 15 ,over 1400 well-chaperoned men

and women left Seattle's King St .station to board special drains forYakima and Wenatchee, singing"Bow Down to Washington" asthey went. Over 50 squads wereselected, about forty per cent ofthem co-eds . The male groupswere led by advanced navy andarmy men from campus trainingunits .

Arriving at the apple towns a tmidnight, they were greeted byanxious farmers, already worriedby frost which threatened to de-stroy their crop before the col .leglans could be of any help.

Campus organizers, led by Stu-dent President Kirby Torrance,had prepared the pound before-hand and had arranged adequatehousing at the YWCA, YMCA, thefruit ranches, and homes of othe rlocal inhabitants,

• THE WASHINGTON DAILYdescribed the trip this way :

'Tor many of those aboard it isthe first train ride, one filled withall the colour of a football special .Most of the students are quiet,many are listening to portableradios. Some are reading 'Howto Pick Apples' leaflets, and prac-tising with imaginary apples .

"There are no wild parties. Stu-dents seem to have caught thespirit of their work and are serious .Dressed in dungarees and oldsweaters, the co-eds asap differ .ant, offering what may be a pre -view of war society ."

After a hectic week-end, wearypickers returned to. Washingtoncampus on Tuesday, October K.The lob had been dons, and don ewell . Half a million dollars worthof apples had been rescued .

• OVER 200,000 apple boxes werefilled, the crop saved. Students

exceeded their quota by one thirdwhen they averaged 60 to 70 boxeseach a day, at eight to ten centsper box. The reduced train farehad cost them $5.50 and accommo-dation $1 .50 per day .

They hadn't made much money ,but profits had not been their in-tention. As the Daily reported ,"All they wanted was to help th efarmers and to make expensemoney ." Neither were they lookingfor glory, despite the presence ofreporters and newsreel cameramenon the trip.

The whole venture was a thor-oughly co-operative occasion. Everydepartment did its job, and every-one took the bumps with a smile .Bakeries, dairieo, the student trees-ury; and the railroad donatedthousands of doughnuts, milk, icecream, and fruit to ease the tri pboth ways .

• THE STAFF of the WashingtonDaily also earned praise for theirpart in the operation. The col-umns of their paper served as anotice-board a n d organizatio ncentre for the trip; they even pub-lished diagrams and stories of howand how not to pick apples .

As though the apple-harves thadn't been enough, the ASUW(Washington's equivalent to AMS)went out and got 500 more stu-dents to work on the same week -end in a Seattle scrap drive .

When the week-end was over ,University of Washington official shad this to say :

"I can only say that I am grate-ful and proud of you all" . —Pres-ident L. P. Slag .

"I've never been so proud o fUniversity students before . .Reports from ranchers are uni-versally complimentary and grate-ful",—Dean of Men Newhouse .

The "Big Apple" ended on ahappy note with arrival at Slog' soffice of 25 boxes of apples fromgrateful growers as a mark of thei rappreciation . Faculty memberswere invited to indulge in on egreat round of apple-i,olishing.Which they did .

Two ScarletFever CasesIn Students• DR. J. S. KITCHING of

the Health Service Of-fice issued the followingstatement to students yester-day in regard to scarle tfever.

"During the past few days, tw oUniversity students have devel-oped scarlet fever. It must berecognized that scarlet fever isan acute communicable disease,and its development necessitatesthe exclusion of a student attacke dfrom the University for a period o fnot less than four weeks.

"The disease begins with a sorethroat, accompanied by fever an dgeneral malaise. After two orthree days a rash is noted on th ebody and the diagnosis is thenapparent . However it Is imperativeto be careful of sore throats. Ifyou have a sore throat, especiallyif your temperature is raised ,please stay home until the temp-erature Is normal . With any signof rash, call your doctor. A sorethroat by no means indicates thatscarlet fever will follow. In factit does only exceptionally . "

Students on the campus withsore throats are advised to reportto the University Health Office.

Dr. Kitching added there wasabsolutely no cause for alarm, a sthe chances of scarlet fever de-veloping in an adult are veryslight.

S'1'WENTS FAVORITESAccording to these ratings, Var-

sity was the unanimous choice fo rfirst place with four first-placevotes. Shores and Air Force tiedfor second with nine points, andStacys and Laurie. each receivedfourteen points. In spite of this,Shores snagged first place hi thetotal player ratings, with 42 points,noting out Varsity by three pointswith Air Force third with 49 points,while Stacya and Lauries fight i tout for the cellar with 54 and 58points respectively. The obviou sdeduction from these two con-flicting factors, would seem to bethat Shores rate man for manahead of Varsity and Air Force,but that the coaching of M. L. VanValet and Wally Mayers will beenough to put the Thunderbirdson top and shoot the Airmen intoa second place tie with Shores,who at this hut stage have stillto find a permanent coach.

THIS IS BIRDS YEARBesides rating high as a team,

After Saturday night'sgame, the Lurie.' kind of ball-playing will be no secret to Varsity,and they should have no troublewith the pie-men the rest of theseam.LAUR N CAPABLE TRAM

However, the students will findin their first game that they willbe up against a veteran, capableteam who might beat them if theThunderbirds, through nervous-ness or inexperience, become alittle wild in their ball-handing orshooting . If the Thunderbirds dowin on Saturday night, they willbe living up to the claim made forthem by their supporters. Theyshould, also, have little troubl ewith Shores or Stacy., as thesetwo teams pay the same kind ofball as Lurie., and will be no pro-blem to Coach M. L. Van Valet asfar as their style is concerned .start Is probable that Varsity wil lstart against Laurlep, gam.Harry Franklin and Art Johnson,centre Harry Komodo, and for -wards "Sandy" Robertson and ArtBarton. There is a possibility thatlanky Gordy Sykes may start inthe left forward slot in place ofRobertson. Sykes has shown a lotof talent in practice sad his heigh t(8 ft., 5 inches) would certainlyhelp the team. His only fault is alack of smoothness, and it is likely

that Mr. Van Vliet will keep him onthe bench until more practice rubs
