Halperin named as new editor=?

Joel McCormick

Steve Halperin, a twenty- year old Political Science student, has been appointed Interim Editor of the geor- gian, it was announced by the Student Council last night.

The move was necessitated by the resignation of Joel McCormick as Editor-in- Chief. McCormick cited “personal responsibilities” as the reason for his depart­ure.

Halperin, who describes his political position as being “a flaming liberal (sic)” , said he contemplated no se­rious policy changes “other than hopeful improvement.” He feels th a t the primary function of the campus press is to report objectively both sides of every issue.

“This does not m ean,” he said, “th a t the georgian will

not take stands. But we will judge issues as they arise. The georgian will not be a vehicle for a particular po­litical point of view. We learned our lesson last year - that i t’s not the role of a College paper to create issues.”

This apparently rather cau­tious editorial policy will not differ widely from that set earlier in the year by M c­Cormick. Halperin stated that he believes the georgian’s ap ­proach to issues so far has been “ reasonably objective.” H alperin’s interim editorship will last until a new perm a­nent editor can be found.

The problem of finding a suitable candidate for editor is one th a t has been on Coun­cil’s mind at different times for the past eight months,

since last year’s executive decided in February to fire David Bowman. Although there is a constitutional pro­vision for staff control in selecting georgian editors, the staff’s choice for the po­sition m ust be ratified first by the Communications Board and then by the S tudent’s Council.

S.L.C. President Bill Schwartz has said he doesn’t expect to receive many ap­plications, although after H al­perin’s ratification as inte­rim editor at last night’s council meeting, applications for the perm anent editorial post were declared open.

Halperin was Sports E d it­or last year, and up until last week had been Managing Editor for McCormick.

University rejects early registration

Pre-registration for the 1970-71 term was reject­ed uanimously by the Uni­versity Council. Now the committee will have to try to solve some of the prob­lems arising from the yearly registration mix-ups.

The new proposal suggests tha t students register through January and February. This means tha t curriculum, course times and faculty would have to be set up by the beginning of December.

Of course there are result­ing problems. Students would have to definitely decide on their courses by February, allowing no time for changes, if they so desire. In a survey conducted last year, it was illustrated tha t most students don’t really have an idea of their course selections even

Gray accused of libel

in September, let alone Feb­ruary.

Assistant Dean of Arts, Michel Despland objected tc the idea, noting tha t faculty meetings, and staff appoint­ments would have to be set up in a hurry to meet the December 1 deadline.

Principal O’Brien pointed out th a t pre-registration would be too much of a strain on this year’s budget. There­fore the money would have to come from current expen­ses. While agreeing tha t a definite change in the regis­tration system is needed, he felt th a t the real problem is the shortage of courses and qualified staff.

The brief has been turned over to a sub-committee to devise a new plan to solve the registration problems.

Wayne Gray, Editor and Publisher of The Paper has been charged, under article 13 of the Code of Student Behaviour, with publishing li­belous m aterial. A total of th irty eight students and fac­ulty members have formally filed charges against Gray, charges which could lead to expulsion if he is found guilty.

The controversy was sparked by a cartoon which appeared on the editorial page of The Paper. The issue of the paper came out on Monday and was not on the stands for very long before the Dean of Students office heard about it and with the approval of the ESA ordered all copies confiscated and burnt.

Later in the afternoon, the Executive Committee of the S tudents’ Association issued were promptly burned on a statem ent calling for the Monday afternoon in the in­

dismissal of editor Gray. The release termed the cartoon “ the most offensive example of racism ever published at Sir George Williams Univer­sity.” It called upon the Ev­ening S tudents’ Association to “publicly repudiate Mr. Gray for this senseless action.”

The cartoon depicts two barefoot, beaded African tr i­besmen sitting crosslegged in a tent, surrounded by shrunken heads, spears, and posters proclaiming “Visit Beautiful Biafra”, “Nigeria U.V, and “Mau Mau Tech.” One of them is holding a machine gun, while the other, reading a newspapèr, says, “Pack your kit bag, Alfred. They are about to start a Black Studies Program in Sir George.”

All copies of the Paper

cinerator on the fourteenth floor of the Hall building, but not before a flurry of complaints were received by The Paper and the Dean of Students.

A second edition of The Paper appeared on Tuesday morning, without the object­ionable cartoon. No reference to the cartoon was made, and no statem ent of apology is­sued.

The Paper’s news editor, Ron Blunn, told the georgian tha t the cartoon had appeared due to an oversight by staff members at the plant Sunday night.

E.S.A. President Ross Miles said Monday tha t no action was being planned by his association against Gray. Miles would not say definitely whether the E.S.A. would meet in the near future to consider a possible move.

Malone issues ultimatum at LoyolaA meeting yesterday be­

tween the Very Rev. Patrick J. Malone, Student Council President Marcel Nouvet, and four other students, has re­sulted in a setback for Loyola students in their dispute with the adm inistration over the firng of Physics professor Dr. S.A. Santhanam .

Earlier rports on Tues­day morning had stated that a settlem ent had been reach­ed between Malone and the students. The details of the agreement were released at a meeting in the Loyola A th­letic Center Tuesday after­noon where Nouvet told an audience of 900 students tha t no victory was possible by any means, and that they

would have to accept Rev. Malone’s final decision.

The conditions of Malone’s ultim atum are th a t a $10,000- redress will be given to San­thanam , along with letters of recommendation. This is a total of $4,000 more than the last offer. Loyola students had voted tha t they would not accept the last offer.

At Tuesday’s meeting Nou­vet told those assembled that as far as Father Malone was concerned the case is closed and there would be no further negotiations.

“We will not achieve a clear cut victory by using peacful tactics, nor shall we

and jeers.“Violence will only isolate

the mass from us, as it did last year a t SGWU. No course of action remains open to us but to back down and accept the compromise.”

Nouvet then announced that he was resigning as Pres­ident. He later revealed that he had changed his mind. A referendum will be held on Monday to determine whether he will continue, as president to push for arbitration in the six month old dispute.

“The decision is your’s” , Nouvet told the students. “W hat are you going to do?” He said that Loyola students were “victims of an incom­

petent and dictorial adm i­nistration.

His comments were receiv­ed with mixed reactions of cheers and boos. HeN offered the students three possible courses of action: They could agree to the conditions, they could take further action by bringing the case to arb itra­tion or they could postpone a decision until a definate sta­tement is made by Dr. San­thanam and officials of the C.A.U.T.

One student in the audience called on Novet to provide some leadership' and de­manded tha t the President outline a course of action as an alternate to accepting

by A n n e McLean

Malone's statem ent. In a vote, the students decided to wait 24 hrs. before taking any ac­tion.

There is definately a large split at Loyola on this issue. It is possible that the Stu­dents Council Board of Di­rectors might impeach Nou­vet. This issue was made even more complex by the Senate ruling tha t the Board does not represent student opinion on campus. There is also the possibility that the Board of Directors will call off Mondays referendum, which could leave the Loyola student union without a lead­er. In such a case, the Board would probably assume comp­lete control of the Students Association.

Canadian student union is dead

M artin Loney

The Canadian Union of S tu­dents is dead. At their mee­ting last week, President M ar­tin Loney asked tha t the union phase itself out of existence. Less than a week before, the University of Toronto had vo­ted to pull ouï of CUS, climax­ing the steady decline of the student union. W ithout the fee: and membership of U of T. the union could not possibly sur­vive.

CUS was founded in 1926 anc

M O R A TO R IU M PLANSO rganization for the second stage

in the Viet N am M oratorium cam paign will take shape tomorrow afternoon, when organizers from M cGill’s M ora­torium Com m ittee will hold a public ■ meeting in H-620 from 2:30 to 4:30.

Those in attendance will hear an appraisal of the issues involved in the Viet N am war, will be asked for com m ent on the McGill program, and will decide w hether they them selves will organize Sir George M oratorium activities or sim ply encourage Sir George s tuden ts to partic ipate at McGill.

No group from Sir George partic i­pated in the dem onstration a t the C ham plain border crossing last m onth, where about two hundred Me Gill studen ts successfully blockaded traffic bound for C anada from the U.S.

The M cGill M oratorium Com m ittee is planning protest activities to coin­cide with protests in cities across

N orth America, on the 13th and 14th of this m onth. D em onstrations will continue on a m onthly basis, lengthe­ning by one day each m onth, until the Nixon adm inistration agrees to withdrawn American troops from Viet Nam .

M cGill’s M oratorium com m ittee plans the following:

--An all-day teach-in on Thursday, ' November 13.

—Im planation of crosses, m ilitary- cem etary style, a t the McGill cam ­pus and other places.

--The conducting of an opinion sur­vey throughout the M ontreal area on the question.

--The dispatch of telegram s to Richard Nixon and Pierre Elliot T ru ­deau, to which M ontrealers are being invited to affix their signatures.

--A telephone cam paign to tie up the switchboards of the U.S. consu­late and the offices of C anadian In ­dustries Lim ited (CIL)

is one of the oldest student unions in the world. Up until 1968 the union had been rela­tively moderate, concentrating primarily on various student services buf remaining apoli­tical. Last year the union found itself with a large group of wing radicals and the union policy for th a t year reflected the political views. At the CUS conference at Guelph, the union delegates were very proud of their support for the Viet Cong.

Many universities students objected to this unilateral po­licy making by the union and what Loney termed ‘right wing backlash’ began to take its toll. One by one the universi­ties voted to withdraw from CUS.

The CUS executive felt what it was necessary to try to present a new face to the pu­blic. At their meeting this year at Lakehead, the union adop­ted a moderate tone. They didn’t come out and blast US imperialism as they did in the past, but instead just hinted that they were against US po­licy and spoke in a wide terms of ‘protecting student rights’.

The new front didn’t fool anyone. Most of the moderate delegates went back to their universities and urged for a pullout from the union. Toron­to and Dalhousie pulled out on the same day and thus struck the death blow to CUS,,

Loney was very disturbed by the attacks from the left.

"In the actual context of what’s happened,” he said, “ they i- gnored what CUS could do to increase awareness and ins­tead of giving the organiza­tion cirtical support they sat back and watched the right qing backlash.”

Loney went on to say that his greatest responsibility now is to the union staff, most of whom have been with CUS for many years.

Toronto student President Gus Abols, who urged students to vote against the union said, “This proves to me tha t the radicals are no longer the representatives and that the students have rejected them .”

Loney felt tha t the issue had been slogans and stereo­types and not policies as it should have been. He said tha t CUS was willing to alter policy to fit student demands but tha t the moderates were set on destroying the ‘radical’ union.

The idea of a student union is not dead yet however. A group of moderate students are working to form a new u- nion wich will be apolitical and devote all its attention to student affairs.

“T h a t’s not possible” ,said Loney, “Any relevant union will have to deal with the same issue we faced. Its just a m atter of time and edu­cation.”

The Pap erThe Editorial Cartoon which appeared in the early morning edition

of Monday’s “ The Paper” was, in the opinion of “ the georgian” , a foul and uncalled for piece with definite overtones of racism. It appears that the evening students’ newspaper has flaunted one of our societys most cherished liberties-that of freedom of the press.

The University has been enjoying a relatively quiet year, but strongly tempered with fear and apprehension due to the events of last winter. We would have expected greater care on the part of those in influence to preserve what remains and restore what once was. “ The Paper” has shown questionable judgement by allowing the cartoon to appear.

A state of quiet animosity has been existing between our respective newspaper, and the role of friendly enemy is not one which we chose to abandon for one of a more volatile nature. But we believe that we would be derelict in our duty as a responsible student voice if we refrained from expressing a position on this issue.

University Journalism, notwithstanding some excellent Campus pa­pers has a reputation which is precarious at best. All that we have worked for is that much weaker as a result of this alleged “ slip” in the Paper’s editorial machinery. All of us who strive for, and pray for a student press of fairness, honesty and objectivity are greatly dissappointed in the actions of our counterparts.

Bill 63For over a week now, demonstrators in Quebec have been chanting

their slogans and urging the government to kill B ill 63. Most of these people haven’t the faintest idea of what Bill 63 is all about or what political and social influence this legislation w ill have. They don’t really care! Their leaders have said that B ill 63 w ill mean the death of French in Quebec and like the blind fools that they are, they rally to the cause and “ fight for freedom” . Students rallied eagerly at the thought of no school and a week long celebration.

Freedom is a big word. In St. Leonard, the people have been denied the freedom to choose the language in which their children should be educated. The Union Nationale government has finally brought in le­gislation to protect that right. B ill 63 is simply the unwritten tradition of the past 100 years put down on paper.

The reality in Quebec is that there are two official languages. French is the language of the majority, and its priority is also stressed in Bill 63. However, English is still the principal economic language of not only Quebec but all North America of which Quebec is still a part.

The battle in the streets is minor compared to the real battle which will be fought in the National Assembly. The opposition Liberals are challenging the Union Nationale government on the bill, not so much because the liberals are nationalists, but rather because they see that there are some shaky points, such as the amount of choice given to the M inister of Education, on which the opposition can embarass the government and perhaps even cause Bertrand’s fall. After that a Liberal government would almost certainly advance the cause of B ill 63.

Either way, the future of Quebec rests on the outcome of the struggle to enact B ill 63. David Saskin

LettersSir,

When you published the Code of Student Behavior, it met with some opposition. However, seeing th a t it remains a perm anent feature this year, I strongly suggest tha t it be used against the editor of “The P a­per” .

A man in a suppossedly respon­sible position such as this cannot allow an item such as the Cartoon which appeared in the November 3rd issue of “The Paper” , to let pass' his forever judicious eye. He is responsible for whatever appears in “The Paper” . This cartoon, if it can be called that, is offensive to a large group of students a t Sir George.

I cannot emphasize too strongly th a t the Dean of Students Office:

1. Charge the editor of “The P a­per” under the Code of Student Be­havior - Article 13;

2. Dissolve the existing body known as “The Paper” which pre­sently exists with the authorization of the Dean of Students.

I urge swift and efficient action to right this malicious attack on the students at Sir George.

Sir,Contrary to all rumours, James

Thurber is not writing anonymous articles for the Georgian. One may have recently seen articles without authors’ bylines. This is like Aunt Jem im a’s pancakes without her syrup. One might think th a t there are many logical explanations for the lack of bylines. Perhaps the writer is shy. Perhaps the writer is illiterate and merely dictates the articles to scri­bes, who forget her name. Perhaps Jam es Thurber is alive and writing! None of those reasons are correct. The thruth be known: Gail Renard’s name has been “accidentally” om it­ted frequently.

I have written many articles that I would be grateful for th a t omis­sion. But, it was I who wrote such memorable articles as “Radio Sir George”, “ the Escalator System”, and the recent “ Comment on Paul M cCartney” .

It is not for myself tha t I demand justice. It is for my family, who want to show off their daughter’s university education. It is for the butcher who wants to wrap his fish in my name. It is for the democra­tic way of life. I t ’s for Canada!

Hence, I have proven th a t only a facist publication would give me due credit for my works. Besides, is it th a t difficult to spell Gail Re­nard?

THE STUDENT PRESSWHA T'S WRONG ?

John M cH u g h is an M A s tudent in history a t O t ta w a 's Carleton University . Last y e a r w h i le still a t te n d in g University of W estern O n ta r io , he served as M a ­n ag in g Editor of The G a z e t te .

BY JOHN McHUGH

The constitution of the Canadian University Press states in part: “The major role of the student press is to act as an agent of so­cial change. . . rights and respon­sibilities of the student citizen.”

Last year while the student press strove to accomplish this, they fai­led as newspapers.

The reason for the paradoxus sim­ple: this part of the GUP consti­tution demands political orientation of the press rather than journalis­tic expertise. Consequently, most Ca­nadian campuses were flooded with journals of the new left. Wordy, strident and steeped in rhetoric, col­lege newspapers sought to politicize and radicalize their student bodies.

They failed because they didn’t reach the mass of students, who are necessary to effect any change. This is a problem when politicians run the press; and with few exceptions it was politicans who ran the student press in Canada lasy year.

Politicians are essayists, not wri­ters. Print to them doesn’t mean recounting facts, but presenting an argument.

A good example of this kind of re­porting occurred in a CUP feature en­titled “ I Was At AUCC,” which was dated Friday, Novem bers, 1968. This story, by CUP writer Elly Alboim, was a rambling, poorly written pie­ce of journalism, which in attem p­ting to the novel through use of stream of consciousness techniques, fell flat on its face. Alboim never bothered to mention where he was or what group he was writing about until the fifth last paragraph of his sto­ry. Surely readers of the story would have been interested to know AUCC is the Association of Univer­sities and Colleges in Canada, and its members the adm inistrators of Canada’s universities. Throughout the story, Alboim im puted through use of words like “baldspots,” “geriatric convention,” and “ British accents all over” tha t Canada’s university ad ­m inistrators were a group of el­derly refugees from the colonial wars. This type of story would have been more effective, had the writer, through good reporting and use of interviews, proved these men to be what he believed.

“ Good journa­lists are apolitical.. . (and) let thereader form his own opinion by p re ­senting facts.Good journalists are apolitical.

This leaves them free to report si­tuations as they happen with both sides fairly represented. A good jour­nalist lets the reader, form his own opinion by presenting facts in a lo­gical sequence.

Two stories about the same topic, CUS president Peter Warrian, show how good journalism communicates something to a reader, while politi­cal-oriented writing leaves the rea­

der unaffected. One storv by CUP writer, Alan Garr, was an analy­sis of Warrian as a person and po­litician. Garr failed to mention in the story W arrian’s age. much of his back­ground or much of his political theo­ry. He used apologist language like “ if confronted with a burning buil­ding, he (Warrian) would no doubt, give birth or drop dead," to counter press statem ents earlier in the year that Warrian favored burning buil­dings. The story resulted in the rea­der craving to know more about the CUS president than the hollow outline they had been given. The other sto­ry on Warrian, by Tom Rossiter of The Gazette at the University of Western Ontario, was also a sym­pathetic portrayal. But Rossiter’s, unlike Garr’s was well-written. Through proven journalistic techni­ques, Rossiter told his readers a- bout W arrian and why he thinks like he does. The story told of W arrian’s stay at a theological seminary in Baltimore, and the pnterest he developed there in the ghetto poor. The article also told of W arrian’s working-class back­ground and his concern for his fel­low man. In short, it explained why Peter Warrian acts like he does.

Despite the obvious faults there was some refreshing honesty from the student press last year. Ob­jectivity, the ideal most newspaper­men strive for but scarcely ever a t­tain, was dismissed as a myth by student journalists. Certainly objecti­vity is difficult if not impossible to achieve. By disposing of it, student journalists were less restricted in re­porting events and their stories were sometimes better because of it. How­ever, the danger in dismissing ob­jectivity is that a reporter, unchec­ked, often doesn’t report things as they are, but how he feels they are.

If the reporter can’t be or isn’t objective, then he should at least be accurate. A factual, two-sided account of any story is a must, or bias sets in and the reader is cheated. If the opponent is always wrong, as some student newspapers would have their readers believe, then selection or suppression of facts isn’t necessary. Goof fair reporting, which includes clear, concise writing and a thorough in­vestigation of the facts through in­terviews and research, will lead the reader to the same conclusion.

Dave Scott, 23 editor of The Ga­zette at the University of Western Ontario, is a believer in a politi­cal-oriented student press.

“The commercial press has failed miserably,” Scott said, “ in informing their readers about the political pro­cess, their political power, or how

politics affects their lives. The col­lege press tries to interpret these things for its readers.”

Scott adm its the student press had its faults last year, but added they were faced with many problems, which made their jobs more diffi­cult. The two biggest hassles facing the student press last year, as in the past, were staff and money. Staffs for college newspapers are hard to recruit and harder to keep. Their transiency often makes it difficult for a paper to m aintain any continuity of policy from month to month, let alone year to year. “ I t’s diffi­cult to train reporters, except by osmosis,” he said. “A good staff is just an accident.”

Money to operate is also a peren­nial problem. With one or two excep­tions college newspapers are free to students. The money to publish comes from two sources: student fees distri­buted by student councils, and ad­vertising.

The first source of money poses two problems for student journalists. Their university might be small and una­ble to donate much money. In this case no amount of diligent effort is going to make the paper a success.

The second problem arising out of money received from student coun­cils, is much more serious. S tu ­dent politicians have a sense of mis­sion when it comes to spending, and control of their investment becomes more strict. Since the student press is an investment, political control is only a step away.

Advertising is an excellent source of revenue, and enables the press to m aintain greater freedom from po­litical control. However, advertising from the advertisers’ view is only ef­fective where a m arket exists. Small papers with little readership are of­ten cut off because their market is limited.

Yet the student press showed ex­cellence in many areas.

The McGill Daily, edited by Mark Starowicz, displayed as great if not greater insight into Quebec than any daily in the province. Starowicz’s pie­ces on the press in Canada were crisp,well written and informative.

The Faceless Men, a feature written on the death of Daniel Johnson, by Richard Bergeron of the McGill Dai­ly was one of the finest stories writ­ten by a student journalist last year.It combined clear writing, evoked readers’ emotion, and provided an interesting insight into the govern­ment of Quebec’s Union Nationale Party.

The special issue published by The Carillon, after their conflict with the Regina Board of Governors, and directed to the people of Saskatche­wan, was a model of clear, conci­se reporting.

Despite these occasional sparks of excellence, 1968 was not an exceptio­nal year for the student press in Ca­nada. Consistently the papers ga­ve politics priority over news, as essay-writing won out over journa­lism.

This year student bodies across the country are not likely to put up with a steady diet of politics. The reaction to CUS last year, accom­panied by the many pullouts, and the backlash after the Sir George oc­cupation, make this year crucial for student journalists.

The student press must s ta r t by lear­ning to communi­cate w ith its rea­ders. Writing is the basic tool of any journalist. ”The student press must start by

learning to communicate with its readers. Writing is the basic tool of any journalist .

A good newspaper has something for everyone. Papers last year ten­ded to play down sports, entertain­ment, features and humour for the sa­ke of politics. If the student press is to become more responsible to its readers increased coverage of these areas are the place to begin.

No m atter how well written an ar­ticle is, no one will read it if it isn’t attractively displayed. Photogra­phy, artwork and imaginative design draw a reader into a paper, and help hold his interest.

This combined with broader cove­rage should increase overall reader interest, which can often spill over onto the editorial and news pages, and acquaint these people with e- vents and ideas they’ve never be­fore considered.College papers should examine ways of cutting ties with student councils and administrations, and setting themselves up autonomously This would give the student press a free hand when reporting news and editorially critizing all university bodies.

There’s no substitute for professio­nal experience. Radical journalists who denounce “ the bourgeois capi­talistic press,” would soon discover journalism is much better learned in the newsroom than the classroom.

Lastly, CUP must set an example for its member papers. The 55-mem­ber news co-operative must increase the journalistic quality and content of its news packets. Larger CUP mem­bers should work to raise the level of their smaller associates through exchange programs.

The CUP executive shall ultimately determine the direction Canada’s stu­dent press will take this year. Ho­pefully they will seek to raise both the level of political awareness and journalistic excellence of members, and in doing so point out the fine line between news reporting and e- ditorial opinion.

WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE CRYIHG ?

Joel McCormick, Editor in Chief, was the first of the lot to to tally lose his m arbles. Joel was wandering around the Hall Building one day last sum m er when he innocently raised his arm to check his deoderant in front of Bill Schwartz, who at the tim e was ask­ing a group of people “ Who wants to be E ditor?” T h a t’s how h got in. Since th a t day he’s been trying to get out and has succeeded honored the staff with his weekly visits each W ednesday from 2:00 to 2:05. When not frequent­ing one of downtown M ontreal’s m any fine pubs, Joel can be found trying to “find the m eaning of life” . We only wish he would try to find the meaning of journalism .

Steve Halperin, is part tim e M anag­ing Editor, and full tim e sports writer th a t is, when he isn 't leading the Geor­gian Tem perance League, or yelling at Goyens. When Steve was informed tha t he had been nicknam ed “The Georgian S tra igh t” , he exclaimed, “gee I like tha t name. I th ink I’ll nam e a body of water off BC after i t .” Steve is especially thankful to Gerri, Astrid, W endy S ha­ron and Ju ne for inspiring the piece of journalism which brought him cam ­pus fam e. If you’re ever in the office, you'll know Steve from the loud, ob­noxious voice which shrieks a t fifteen m inute intervals “Don’t touch me, you hippy .”

David Saskin, the boy wonder of the staff, is the only sane one left but his Doctors tell us he’s going quickly.This is his first year here and he’s m ade quite an impression on the geor­gian as news editor. Though only a little boy, our own Jim m v Olson is a big m an around the office. When not pu tting out a newspaper, David is occupied fighting off the H ippy fringe which is trying to corrupt his im pres­sionable freshm an m ind. His articles can be seen twice weekly on pages one through eight, colum ns one through five.

Ken W axman, Nook Editor is also the Georgian’s Clean-Cut-Kid-in-Resi- dence. Ken is proud as punch of hav­ing risen from his hum ble beginnings in Cote Ste. Luc to gain a position in the high society of M ilton and Hutchison Streets. Before he dies, K en’s fondest dream is to earn enough bread to af­ford a round trip ticket to Pointe Claire and Beaconsfield, because, as he puts it, “ I w anna see if those places really exist” . Ken first gained fame- when he becam e the first S.A. Pres­idential C andidate ever to have less votes cast for him than spoiled bal­lots. When not practising his insanity on innocent bystanders, and trying to con Jewish Suburban Freshm an Coeds, Ken fights a never ending battle against H alperins incessant dem ands th a t once, ju st once, he eat at Pum perniks.

Howard K ay and Ian Doull, the co­photo Editors are our Odd Couple. Howard, an apprentice kippv who is working hard to earn his le tter (H. of cours) m ade his most notworthy contribution to this newspaper was catching four passes in the ink bowl game. His most dubious distinction is th a t he greatly resem bles S tuart Bernstein. Lucky guy! Ian Doull has

succeeded in m aintaining his autonom y from the five thousand raving lunatics who inhabit th is office daily. He is, in the words of Steve H alperin, the one person who still m ight finish the year with his head still on his shoulders. Though he is the son of a safety spe­cialist, there are those who insist tha t Ian is a big Accident.

THESE PEOPLE NEED HELP!

Stuart Bernstein,' when not keeping tight control over the Georgian’s purse strings, is busy m aking sure his nam e is spelled right in the m asthead, and cultivating the growth of the world’s sparcest four year old beard. S tuart is the first Georgian staffer in ninety seven years to keep his m arks up above a “D ” average, and he points with bu tton busting pride to his nam e on the honor role on the seventh floor. Tw enty years from now, when the rest of us are working for $49.50 (before taxes) a week as reporters, maybe millionaire businessm an Stu will rem em ber his old pals, and sink into his heart for a taxi ch it.

Chrvs Goyens, the world's first re­sident of LaFleche, is also our Sports Editor. Chrys is th is year’s token G en­tile on the Georgian staff, winning the position by virtue of the first three letters of his last nam e. (M cCormick don’t count, cause when he a in ’t slosh­ing a t The Boiler Room, he withdraws himself from the common rabble by holing up in the executive suite.)

Sir George Little TheatreSir George Williams Uni­

versity can well be proud of her Little Theatre because it happens to be one of the best in Canada. It is not only the home of the weird Thea­tre Arts students, but is also the seting for many CBC and Georgian Players produc­tions.

Located in the sub base­ment of the Hall building, the theatre occupies two floors. It consists of a spac­ious stage with ample wing areas, a superb lighting sys­tem, work areas provided with modern power machine­ry, and a 160 highl’oot grid.

The class usually begins

with a warm-up. This con­sists of exercises to loosen the bodies and make them flexible. Then they skip with imaginary ropes or play tag. One day the people experi­mented with sound and made “music” , banging on pots and pans or playing with eggbeat- ers. The whole class was caught up in the excitement.

Second and third year m a­jors are required to direct a play. It can be original or unoriginal. But the res­ponsibility of its production is completely in the hands of the director. Recently our class saw the children’s play, “The H at” , under the direct­

ion of Holly Nish. It was delightful because it involves audience participation-an au­dience ranging in age from five to ten years old. The cast, consisting of four act­ors, will be touring Montreal elementary schools in the near future. The term “col­lée’ refers to the group of plays which are produced by the majors. Some arecoming up next month.

Who knows? Maybe out of this group of “novices” fam ­ous actors, directors and technicians will arise to play an im portant part in tomor­row’s theatre world.

If you’re a male Sir George student, looking for a place to eat meals, make friends, stu­dy, or just hang around, Psi Upsilon might be the place for you.

Psi Upsilon is an internatio­nal men’s social fraternity with a local chapter at McGill. The brothers in the Psi Up­silon house are eager to meet Georgians and accept them in­to fraternal ranks.

The house is situated at 3429 Peel, within walking dis-

Sir George has no fraterni­ties, and many students are expected to utilize this oppor­tunity to become lrat men.

Psi Upsilon has an annual fee of $200: which covers dai­ly meals, bar privileges, fre­quent parties, and numerous other benefits.

The fraternity is holding lunches all this week and all Sir George men are cordially invited to have a good meal, meet the Psi U. bovs, and learn about the advantages of going fraternity.

TO UNCLE TOM & OTHER SUCH JEWSby M. Jay Rosenberg

It is becoming increasingly fash­ionable in certain left-wing Jewish circles to put down everything Jew­ish. These Jewish leftists, still hung-up because they were not born Protestant, find tha t they can glibly resort to anti-Jewish stereotypes today without being referred to a good psychiatrist. It is now quite acceptable for the Jew to attem pt to ingratiate himself with the goyim by condemning what he has always been ashamed of. I t’s a sad sight.

We are living in a time of ex­ploding nationalisms. The blacks in America are the first to abjure the idea of assimilation, to realize the inherent lie in the concept of melting pot. Through black nationalism has developed a new black pride and hence the ticket to liberation.

Today’s young American Jew is a good bit slower. He desperately wants assimilation: Jewishness em ­barrasses him. He finds the idea of Jewish nationalism, Israel not­withstanding, laughable. The leftist Jewish student is today’s Uncle Tom. He scrapes along, demons­trating for a John H atchett, asham ­ed of his identity, and obsessed with it. He cannot accept the fact tha t he is seen as a Jew, tha t his destiny is tha t of the Jews, and tha t his only effectiveness is as a Jew. But he wants to be an “American,” a left­ist American, talking liberation and aspiring WASP. He is a ludicrous figure.

He joins black nationalist groups, not as a Jew but as a white man. His whiteness, his precious white­ness, is too valuable to him for it to be relegated to a secondary position. He does not understand that his re­levance to the black struggle is as a Jew and a fellow victim of endless white exploitation. He can compre­hend the black struggle but only in the context of his own. His involve­ment in these black nationalist orga­nizations make him a living lie. Blacks don’t need his white leader­ship and they don’t want it. The sad fact is th a t the Jewish Tom is an inevitable product of American civi­lization. But it is time that he rea­lize tha t he, not today’s black, is the invisible man; he, like yesterday’s Negro, wanders in a no m an’s land.

The Jew can be an ally of the black liberation movement and he should be. But first he m ust find himself. He m ust realize th a t his own struggle for liberation is a continuing one, th a t he too has much to fear and also much of which to be proud. The miracle of Israel, a na­tional liberation deferred for 2000 years, should be his inspiration. The Jew did it alone, as the black knows he must, and he did it with guns.

Therefore it is as a Jew that I must accept black nationalism . The

black m ilitants may or may not be the equivalent of the Irgun and Stern gang, but surely the parallel is there. The Jewish war of national libera­tion is different from that of the blacks or the Viet Cong only in that the Jews are closer to success, but what was won by Jewish fighters on the battlefields of Palestine will not be lost by Jewish moral cowards here in America. The black revolution also will succeed, but when it does the blacks will lose all their white “ friends.” They will be called “an ti­progressive.” They will labelled the aggressors. If they win again and again, they will be called “oppres­sors” . As he does now, the black will surely stand alone.

He can learn this much from the Jewish experience. When they slaughtered six million of us, the good people offered us sympathy, and nothing else. They uttered bro­therly noises. It was when the fight­ing Jew arose from the blood and ashes of Europe th a t we began to lose our friends. The world began to accept our national existence but was prepared to mourn our imminent de­mise. Who can forget those “glo­rious” days before the Six Day War. All over the world good people de­monstrated for Israel. One can al­most picture the left’s reaction to the death of Israel: never-ending sympathy rallies, leftists wearing the S tar of David on black arm ­bands. Israel could have come to represent the fight for freedom, the struggle to exist. Her people, driven to the sea, could have been m ar­tyrs. It would have been beautiful. But Israel won the war and in so doing she lost her “friends.” Be­cause she survived, she shall be punished.

But tha t is not the issue; the ab­surdity of the left’s anti-Israel posi­tion can be taken up on another day. The issue is one of Jewish pride. All those Jewish students who whis­per the word “Jew” and lower their heads when a Philip Roth story is discussed in a literature course, the Mark Rudds who âre prepared to die for the Vietnamese, the Biafrans, the Greeks, and the Czechs yet who reject Israel - these are our Uncle Toms (let’s call them “Uncle J a ­kes” ) and our shame. The Jew must accept his identity, he’s not just another white man. It’s time he rea­lizes he’s a Jew, and he’d better accept it. Many Jews are quick to criticize blacks for being impolitic enough to call us Jews in public. But th a t is what we are. From Hillel Club to the New Left is a short jum p. And the inevitable jum p back, by the Jewish Tom, is even shorter. A man who cannot accept his own identity is a hypocrite and a liar when he pretends to accept someone else’s.

Black nationalism and Jewish na­tionalism will exist concurrently. To accept one you must accept the other. The black is America’s Jew; a common fight m ust be waged. And yet when some black spokesman tells us we are poisoning his children’s minds, when he calls us kikes, we must see him for what he is. Then he is just another goy using the Jew, the available and accepted vic­tim, as scapegoat. We must then fight him as well. T h a t’s the way it must be. We shall scrape for no one.

And thus from this point on, I shall join no movement that does not accept and support my peoples’ struggle. If I must choose between the Jewish cause and a “progres­sive” anti-Israel SDS, I shall choose the Jewish cause. If the barricades are erected, I will fight as a Jew. Not arbitrarily, not in support of the UFT, but in support of myself. In the final analysis, M ark Rudd and Albert Shanker will be on the same

Last week the Union Nationale go- gernment of Québec passed a new language bill which is a blatant sell out of French in Québec. Reaction since has been harsh from the majo­rity of the people, 'and joyous from the small segment of the economic rulers of Québec represented by the English elite.

W’hat the Bill says, in effect, is th a t parents have the choice of what language they wish their children educated in, but specifies that E n­glish children must have a working knowledge of French. W hat “working knowledge” means is not defined.Thus, this allows the economic (thus cultural) subjugation of French, by English. This in brief was an im ­portant part of the protest held last week a t the University of Montréal, where some 8,000 people assembled to show their opposition of Québec’s ruling class and their laws.

Speakers pointed out that the go­vernment had not been given power by the people to enact Bill 63, and tha t the bill was another example of the government’s sell - out of the Québécois. It is obvious that this go-

side - th a t’s the lesson of the last 30 years. It will be learned.

' It has been written that after “the death camps, we retain but one su­preme value; to exist.” M asada will not fall again.

There is still time, but the burden of proof is not on the Jewish nation­alist, it is on you. You who reject your identity and do not realize that it follows you wherever you go. You who are so trapped in your Long Island split level childhood that you can’t see straight. You who fight everything you are - and against the one element tha t gave you your goddam social consciousness; your Jewish social idealism. In the after- m ath of the crematoriums, you are flippant. After Auschwitz, you are embarrassed. Thirty years after the holocaust, you have learned nothing and forgotten everything Ghetto Jew, you’d better do some fast thinking.

by M a r v Rot rand

vernment is not the government of the people. It is a class government, based on class exploitation, financed by foreign monopoly capital and more concerned with profit for themselves than with the will of the workers. Bill 63 is in line with this class government’s policy. We are ready to oppose it and all other governments based on class exploitation in the worker’s struggle for liberation.

Apparently the struggle against Bill 63 has just begun. Numerous CEGEP’s are on the verge of occupa­tion and turmoil is spreading to high school and factories. This was evident as a sizeable num ber of high school students and workers arrived at this Teach In.One speaker said “the people cannot and will not take any more exploi­tation.- The fight is beginning. We are now seeing “ la lutte ouvrière.”This was greeted by shouts of revo­lution and waving of red flags. The next month could see the beginning of an unstoppable chain of events in Québec, class hatred between workers and their bosses and the bosses’ government.

THE PEOPLE'S BANNER

Me GILL CONFERENCE ON DRUGSThe McGill Conference on

Psycho-Active Drugs is scheduled to take place on the afternoon of Friday, Nov. 7 in the Union Ballroom. The immediate question which arises is whether or not such a conference is ne­cessary. The immediate ans­wer does not arise so easily

No doubt by this time students in university have formulated their own opinions about drugs. Some have deci­ded to risk the injuries of legal punishment, medical harm and societal pressures to not use drugs. Others ha­ve decided such risks are senseless.

Whatever view a student may hold, there is a better than even chance that his views are not well founded. McGill has never had an e- ducational program on the drug problem as it exists now and as it has existed for a number of years. Any in­formation students do obtain is usually th a t which is transm itted to them by fellow students or perhaps from hishlv infrequent articles

which appear in Playboy or Time M agazine. So the m a­jor purpose of the McGill conference is to educate the McGill community on all as­pects of drugs and drug use. These include medical, legal and sociological. The confe­rence will give people who have been wanting to know particular facts about drugs the first hand opportunity to ask these questions to quali­fied and concerned people.

The conference is also to serve a second, more imme­diately useful purpose. Some time ago Ottawa appointed a commission of qualified peo­ple to do extensive research into all areas of the non­medical use of drugs. Ob­viously by so doing Ottawa had come to some sort of realization tha t perhaps the laws regarding certain drugs were unjust. The commis­sion, after their research has been- completed, will re­commend to the federal go­vernment if and how the laws should be changed. The com­mission is now in the pro­cess of holding public hear­

ings in the major cities across Canada. The Montreal hearings are scheduled for the 6th, 7th and 8th of No­vember. Resolutions at the McGill conference will be drawn up by the participents which will then be read at the public hearings. This gives McGill the opportunity to present the opinions of the university as a whole to the federal commission. Hope­fully these resolutions will have a substantial impact on the substance of their report.

The conference will be set up as follows. The first and major portion will consist of brief talks, panel discussions and questions from the au­dience. The panelists to be present will include Dr. J. Robertson Unwin, director of Allen Memorial Institute, Assistant Professor of Psy­chiatry at McGill and Cana­dian renowned for his know­ledge and active interest in problems regarding drugs; L.D. Landry, the Crown Pro­secutor of Montreal, whose position it is to try those accused of breaking criminal

Those a t­tending will then break up into smaller conference groups where opinions will again be aired and some sort of conclusions reached. Each group will then draw up their own set of resolutions con­cerning what changes, if any, should be made in drug laws. A final set of resolutions will be drawn up in the form of a brief which will be pre­

sented by the students to the royal commission. Needless to say, good attendence and active participation are ne­cessary to make the confe­rence a success.

The organizing group, sponsored by the McGill Stu­dent Society, consists of M urray McPherson, David Sachs, Hugh Joseph, Mike Olendzinski, and Charles Kik. Mike Olendzinski will chair the conference.

The resolutions will be presented in the form of a brief to the Royal Commis­sion on Saturday morning, at the Queen Elizabeth.

Cagers ReadyBy Gord Pickle

The 1969-70 version of the Georgian hardcourt wars begins this Sunday as the Garnet and Gold tap off with the visiting University of M anitoba. The match is to be played at Loyola and commences at 1 P.M.

This year’s squad fea­tures an impressive list of experienced veterans and strong, eager rookies a n d . has looked in pre-season training. Four weeks of demanding exercises and scrimmages devised by first year mentor Howie N athan has rounded the fif­teen man squad into great physical and mental shape. Judging by the desire, hustle and pride evidenced to date, the Concrete Campus crew could go far in the OSL.

The Georgian’s starting five is not yet definate, with coach N athan having the pleasantly difficult task of choosing among Dave Wild­ing, Rod Ward, Richie Cam- poli, Jim Aiken, Peter Tulk, Ken Davies, Art McQuade, and Jim Robison. One sus­pects tha t coaches hope for problems such as this.

Cager fans of two years ago will remember Campoli as the Georgian’s lone All- Star and one of the leading scorers in the OSL. Once he gets into shape, the tall Ame­rican's point-getting prowess will prove a valuable addi­tion to the Georgian cause.

McQuade and Robison, the only rookies included as possible starters, have shown plenty of ability and desire on the court so far. Both round bailers should make

quite a name for themselves during their intercollegiate careers.

The abundance of solid backup support for the sta rt­ers no doubt brings a smile to coach N athan’s face. Among those providing this support are Mike Dawson, Chris Countess, Kim Kurtz, Pete Hargroves, Norm Ein- heiber, Rick Ballard, and Karl Eliason (who also dou­bles as team manager). Dawson and Countess have Varsity experience and both can be counted on in a clutch situation. The rest of the squad combines extensive court play at the high school level with a great deal of hustle, and should prove an asset to Georgian fortunes for several seasons.

The Garnet and Gold face a total of twenty-four con­tests this year. In addition to the regular OSL slate, the cagers have exhibition dates with M anitoba, McGill, La­val, Albany, and Brandon College.

Georgian home games will once again be played within the hallowed halls of Loyo­la’s Sports Playpen. No ad­mission is charged for any such fixtures.

One of the most disappoint­ing aspects of basketball at Sir George last year was the distinct lack of fan support, with attendance a t home games rarely topping thirty people. This year’s squad is much improved over the one and both needs and deserves your support. Turn out at Loyola on Sunday and cheer your team on to victory.

EditorialBy Chrys Goyens

We in the sports dept, feel that a game report on last Friday’s football game is unneccessary. The Garnet and Gold lost to the U of M by a score of 16-13; that is all there is to it. Besides, we have run out of excuses to offer up in defence of our gallant heroes of the grid wars. (JOKE)

georgian sportsThe Drought Ends

Happiness is the Hockey GeorgiansHockey season is finally

here. Sports fans at Sir George can finally hold their heads high, secure in the knowledge that the lean days are gone; gone with the Char­lie Brown m entality that ac­companied humiliating de­feats at the hands of lesser schools. Gone, no more, fi­nis.

The ’68-69 OSL hockey champs hit the ice this Fri­day night at the U of M and if exhibition tilts mean any­thing Sir George should be in for a rewarding season. A preview was given last week as the Garnet and Gold play­ed the Carabins and the Red- men on successive evenings. When the smoke had cleared the Georgians had • humbled their Big Brothers to the embarrassing tunes of 9-4, and 10-1. Coach Arsenault warned the faithful not to get too optimistic however as the other team s will be in much better physical shape as the season progresses. This is inevitable but whether they (the opposition) are physi-

By Chrys Goyenscallv ready or not won’t m atter much as the Geor­gians are going to win more than their share of games this year. This reporter is sticking his neck out a little by predicting another OSL championship for the Con­crete Campus. It’s going to be a good year.

The main reason for this optimism is the fact that the ice squad whipped their first two opponents without the services of the Silver Fox, Jim Webster, who was ser­ving time with the “Unmen­tionables” . The grid wars and an early September stint at the Pittsburgh Penguin training camp have reaped benefits however, as he has kept his weight down and could step in at a moments notice.

The team has looked great, to say the least. Teamwork, skating, checking, and posi­tional play have been stres­sed in practice and the divi­dends are beginning to show.

B ill Ellyett

People like Warren Gill, Ian Hale, Neil Fernandes, and Bob Philip have been im ­pressive. I could put every­one’s name down, which shows how well the squad has gelled into one unit, but lack of space dictates tha t I men­tion only a few.

The reason this reporter is so willing to stick his neck out is that he holds the coaching talents of Paul Ar­senault in high esteem.

Sometime in the near fu­ture some Pro team is going to make him an offer and he’ll be off to the big lea­gues. His talent as a superior hockey coach cannot go unno­ticed forever.

In the meantime he will bring a few championships our way.

The first game of the sea­son will be played this Fri­day night at the U of M arena at 8:00 p.m. as the Georgians meet the Carabins. If you like to see a Sir George team winning for a change I sug­gest you be there. It is going to be a novel and rewarding experience.
