EDITORIAL The Finance Committee acting through Treasurer Paul Heffer-

nan put forth seven money bills for action by Council on Tuesday. It is the usual procedure for this Committee to hash through

all the pros and cons before it even suggests any expenditure to the Council. This they did. When these matters .arose before Council there was no indication that any of the Finance Committee mem- bers listened during the sessions.

The, voting and the number of abstentions indicate to me a careless and ignorant approach to student government. (See P. 1).

Possibly some of the members are not fully to blame. Cer- tainly they all weren’t aware of the exact needs of the individual groups asking for money.

One group requesting and deserving financial aid was the Debating Union. This writer spoke against the bill. It is indeed unfortunate that I was not offere’d more qualified information on the exact status of the group.

Not one person, including the Treasurer or any member of the Committee, was able to speak fully and knowledgeably about the Debating Union needs . . . yet they offered the bill, but could not support it.

Council members were fearful of letting a new group repre- sent the university without any prior knowledge of whether this group was qualified. This was a apprehension I shared. Were they now ready for debate off campus? Could they well represent this University in competition?

If the president of the Debating Union had been there (he was told he wouldn’t be needed at the meeting) he might have as- sured Council that the answers to the preceeding questions are “yes.”

Unfortunately, he wasn’t, Now the question remains as to whether the Council executive can rescue the Debating Union from this dilemma or will we lose the Debating Union amongst the many other floundering organizations on campus.

Free Thought 0 0 0

Part 1 The National Federation of Canadian University Students

(NFCUS) was created to express and to strengthen the Canadian student’s consciousness of himself as a student and a Canadian, to give him an identity and a voice that could be found only in unity.

The objectives of NFCUS, stated in the founding constitution of 1926, include among others the advancing of legitimate student interests and the developing of relationships with other national and international student groups.

From this initial statement of purpose and objectives there naturally arose a statement of general policy which included The Idea of a Student. One abiding concept underlies the programs and policies of NFCUS from year to year: the idea of a student as a person whose immediate responsibility is to develop his mind and spirit and to acquire knowledge in a particular discipline through a period of concentrated formal study, but with wider responsibili- ties arising from his position as a member of a university community that knows no frontiers, and as a citizen in a democratic society.

The Student Role: From this concept can be deduced the com- plementary role of the student, his local government, and his national federation.

As an integral part of his education the student should, wherever possible, be active in the affairs of his campus; for ex- perience in student government and student activities is educational experience, from which the student will gain administrative ability or specialized or general knowledge that will better fit him to actively contribute to society at large.

Yet it is unfortunate but undeniable that many, perhaps most, Canadian students tend to be basically self-centred, with a pro- nounced lack of concern for’ matters not bound up with their own immediate environment. It is even more unfortunate that, all pro- tests to the contrary notwithstanding, they are in devious ways encouraged to be so, hindered in their occasional attempts to enter vigourously into the controversies of the day at whatever level.

The result is a student who is superficially and passively “aca- demic” and who can only add to the social apathy which it is hopel he will leven. Valuable student contributions to social and politica: life are not unknown even in Canada, they demonstrate that socia: and political action ought not to be discouraged as a part of the university experience, that learning ought not to be reduced tc intellectualism and indifference. _

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Honorariums, Placques

.’ Several signs and petitions

:arrying headings such as ‘Mone- .ary Rape’ and ‘Outrage’ have rppeared on the already over- illed tack boards of this univer- ;ity in opposition to the recent students’ Council action award- ng a total of $800 as ‘Honor- jriums to a few people involved n student affairs. This outcry is :aused by a vocal few, but there ire several students who quietly, md rather sadly, ask,- “Why?” &%y was the question treated so lastily by the Students’ Council? @hy was it not brought to the general student attention before 1 vote was taken? And why was .he recommendation brought in )y the Finance Committee, com- >letely ignoring the Awards S’ommittee on whose domain .hey were trampling?

Many of us think that the question of Honorariums is cer- :ainly one that should be debat- :d; but this is the whole point - [T WASN’T.

In his edict appearing in the qov. 23 edition of the Cory- lhaeus, Mr. Braun seems to be assuming that the plaques taken Yrom, the Chemistry and Engi- leering buildings were stolen by 1) Students 2) Students of U. of w. He has, therefore, rather naively accepted the University’s demand for payment and is now rying to frighten a trembling student body into returning these .tems.

I suggest that Mr. Braun re- consider his position. His re- ;ponsibility is to the student lady, and if necessary he must 3e prepared to defend our rights :ven against this University’s idministrative staff.

Placques, Placate Last week our Students’ Coun-

51 president inserted an article in which the students are squainted with the fact that two plaques from university build- ings had disappeared. Their val- ue was stated to be $800. He concluded by stating that the S.C. would be billed for their replacement.

The administration assumes ;hat students of this University are responsible for this act of vandalism. They probably are right in their suspicion. But probability is not a fact!

What right does the adminis- tration have \that they can repair an error on their part at our ex- pense? They are responsible for maintenance and guarding of their buildings.

This act could equally as well have been committed by some- 3ne not even remotely related to this university.

If someone steals my coat, I cannot merely’ grab the closest person and make him respon- sible for that act.

Unless we are given proof that students of this University are responsible for such acts, 1 demand that claims for pay ments, now and in the future be ignored by the S.C.

.ckets, Nov. 23, Doug MacIn- Ish states: “Generally . . . iden- fication (of a student of a par- zular university as such) is :complished by a combination t school colours and lettering ;1 the back and one sleeve of le jacket. But why cannot the lme aim be accomplished by :hool colours, a distinctively Lilored design, and an artistic- ily appealing crest?”

T

b:

Why not? Because outside the win-Cities area, the university jlours and crest are almost un- nown. Because lettering on the ack and sleeve places you at rice as a university student, and kat, after all, is the point of the cket. Because even the letters 1. of W. are not well known. I ave them in red reflective tape n the back of my car and you lould be surprised at the num- er of people IN SOUTHERN ONTARIO that asked me what aey stood for.

COMMENT RUSETON

The need to provide the best educational challenge and opportunity to to-morrow’s leaders is generally admitted. We must also recognize that our present university system, geared to mediocrity, does not present this challenge.

A campus is needed that captures the essence of the’ spirit of education at its vital best. In his “Science and the Modem World,” A. N. Whitehead eloquently elaborates this meaning: “When man ceases to wander, I he will cease to as- cend in the scale of being. Physical wandering is still import- ant, but greater still is the power of man’s spiritual adventures -adventures of thought, adventures of passionate feeling, adventures of esthetic experience.”

This can be obtained by the establishment of a campus within a campus. This inner campus would be dedicated to the intellectual elite, where the professors are guides and counsellors rather than disciplinarians and administrators. It would be the refuge of the active, inquiring minds: a preserve of the wisdom that we have lost to knowledge to-day.

This campus would place a priority on intellectual gen- ius. It would not wait for the dull. The student could move forward as fast as he likes, following the inclination of his talent. He would be completely free to develop his own ability and individualism. A brilliant mind must not be held back to the slow methodical plodding of the masses.

Some public schools have recognized this and classes are provided for specially gifted individuals. It is pointless to establish exactly the same style of classes in a university, unless universities are to be accepted as no more than exten- sions of grade schools. Universities must recognize that their primary justification is the preservation of the connection be- tween knowledge and the zest for life. An elite campus within a campus is needed for the individuals capable of this intel- lectual development.

This development must be on an individual basis-by tutors and not by classes. The tutor would come to know the individual, and if there was creative ability beyond that of the common herd he could kindle and develop it. By separat- ing the exceptionally creative individuals from the average students we shall gain the best of both worlds in education.

Many attend universities to attain a secure world status, to find a husband, to gain job security. As long as degrees are the key to success in certain occupations, universities will be swamped with students motivated by ambition or by ambitious parents. Professors must herd these masses like a flock of sheep, all humping along a prescribed course, the professor chasing them with sets of ‘tests’ and ‘exams,’ ‘marks’ and ‘at- tendances.’ The whole apparatus is but a miniature of the time-clock business world these people will someday inhabit.

Our present system puts a priority on dulhess and med- iocrity. It could conceivably drive true learing away from the’ universities to take rest wherever some individual and inquir- ing mind can make its own way. This fate is what must be avoided if higher education is to be preserved. Mass higher learning is only achieved today at the expense of our most creative minds. There is only a small proportion of the popu- lation that is really capable of understanding the basis of a true, intellectual career: the majority of the students need only a training.

This inner campus would become the centre of intellect- ual endeavour, catering to the self-disciplined student and encouraging him to realize the full potential of his capabili- ties, Higher education, as well as higher training would at last have some real meaning.

lacate, Letteis on the Back In the article on university university, but if it is, such a

)roblem, why not use white? t2) cost of lettering boosts the price of the jacket - personally 1 (I know others who agree with me) am willing to pay extra for rue identification, not a crest znd U. of W. :3) University name would prob- ably leave confusion with the College whereas “different” jack- zts probably would not - “Wat- zrloo” alone would probably leave confusion, but not “Uni- versity of Waterloo.” Certainly “University of Waterloo’ will be less confusing than just ,a ‘W’ 3r ‘U/W.*’ (4) connection of unique uni- versity with unique jackets - The reason that the U. of W. is unique is its Co-op. Engineering program. If the university is to be known as unique, it will get to be known as an engineering university. I have nothing against engineers, but remember, this universitty does give courses in Arts and Science, too; I don’t think that these should be played down.

“There is a certain red headed individual on campus who is proudly waving a signed affidavit from a married woman testifying that he has the most exciting legs (between the tops of his socks and the bottom of the bermudas) that she has ever seen. If ‘masses of cur$y orange hair and great bony protrusions are the ckiteria for exciting legs then the tiger, as he chooses to call himself, has an exciting pair of legs. Perhaps those of you who know him could induce the good fellow to publish said document in this paper.

’ One thing about being in the Commonwealth, India can feel comfortable in that she has the might of Canada behind her - way behind her. I wonder if there are enough airfields in India to handle all those DC-~‘S we sent. Those planes are so big, modern and fast, it surprises me that a poor country like ours can. afford to let such a vast number go. I hope the government doesn’t get carried away by the spirit of charity and send, the Indians other modem tactical weapons like flintlocks, cavalry saddles and things.

I went skating at the auditorium on Saturday night where, at a conservative estimate, 7,845 people flash around to the top 50 tunes played ‘by a weird personality called the Nighthawk. After a “chicks only” record he came out with something that sounded like this: All right chicks, slow. up the tempo and give the Big Dad- dies a chance to swing back on.” Personally, this “Big Daddy” had had enough so I grabbed some wheels and ,headed for brewsville.

Opens r . Basketball Season by Dave Nimmo Before a small but vocal. crowd, the U. of - W. Warriors de-

feated Osgoode Hall of Toronto 6-3 on No. 22 at Waterloo Arena. Play was even in the first period as both teams scored one

” goal and had 7 shots each. The Warriors controlled the puck in the first ten minutes as they peppered Osgoode goalie Iron with 6 shots before the lawyers even tested Warrior goalie Judd. New-comer Gore, a right winger, outskated an Osgoode defenceman to pick up the puck in the Osgoode end and poke it in to open the scoring for U. of W. at the 12 minute mark.

Then Osgoode took over and kept Judd busy at the other end of the ice. O’Donnell tied the game when he took Whyte’s rebound and deposited the puck behind Judd with two minutes left in the period. Warriors had trouble finding the range as many of their shots were wide. No penalties were called in the opening period.

Osgoode Hall wasted ‘no time in taking the lead. Before the second period was 12 seconds old, McKinnon scored for a 2-l lead. Less than two minutes later, Dave Brennan took a pass from the corner and took two shots at Iron, (one hitting the post) before he scored the equalizer. At the 7 minute mark Whyte passed behind the Warrior net to Walsh who steered it into the open side of the net. Jerry Lawless scored four minutes later on a breakaway to tie the game again. Just before the period ended Frank Pmder deked his way in from centre and scored on a 15-foot shot to give the U. of W. a 4-3 lead at the end of the second period. Warriors outshot Osgoode 9-8.

The Warriors went on the rampage in the final period, forcing \ Iron to make 23 saves. Two went past-him. Osgoode had 9 shots,

all turned aside by Judd. Brennan bagged his second goal of the night on a play from Passmore and Love with Osgoode two men short. Love suffered a broken nose on the play and had to leave the game for good. Later Peacock lifted a soft shot from his left

1 defense position Iron juggled .the puck and it squeezed in under his arm to give U. of W. the 6-3 lead.

Both teams seemed to be more interested in fighting than in hockey in the third period. Lawless of the Warriors and Talmage of Osgoode squared off and in this case Lawless got the better of the law. Passmore and O’Donnell later held their own combat.

Warriors outshot Osgoode 39-24. Tops for Osgodde was centre Whyte who also played the

point on the power play. Whyte was the best skater and shooter on the ice. For U. of W. Brennan and Lawless played well and the whole team went all out. Newcomers Kanerva, Houle and Gore certainly didn’t look out of place.

The Warriors travel to McMaster next Wednesday, to meet the powerful Marlins.

Scoring 70 points in the fist half, the U. of W. Warriors coasted ot a 126-55 decision over the U. of W. Junior Var- sity Pioneers at Seagram Gym last Friday.

Rookie Jerry Raphael, with 32 points, and Jim Hann with 30 points, were tops for ithe War- riors. High scorer for the J.V.‘s was Jerry Hooper with 14 points. The play was loose with ’ 40 fouls I called, 24 to the Pioneers. At the foul line, the Warriors scored 22 out of 38 and ’ the J.V.‘s 11 out of 23. Warriors’ Bob Pando was the top rebound- er of the game.

The Warriors have five return- ees and three newcomers while the J.V. team is almost entirely composed of rookies. Bob Bala- hura seems to be the best be? to make the Warrior line-up ‘if the senior team calls up help from the J.V.‘s. Bob is fast, clever and has a pair of sure hands.

The magic number’ was 38 on Monday Gight. That was the number of points required for lower engineering ’ to defeat Up- per Engineering 38-21, and St. Jerome’s to defeat Arts 38-23. . The Engineers from prelim. and year one had little trouble with their senior counterparts. They played three different lines and it was hard to detect any weaknesses in any of the three. In spite of playing only half the game, Ron Toms dropped in 18 points for the winners.

In the scond game Arts was visibly wakened by the loss of Ray Miske. Unable to keep pace with the Saints they elected tc concede the game early in the third quarter by adding Dick Aldrich and Bill Steinberg tc their line-up.

Hitig for 15 points, thiz combination closed the gaI somewhat but they could nor enable the Artsmen to overcome the Saints first-half lead. Chuck Harrison played well for St. ,Jer ome’s for the third game in i row and tallied 11 points.
