'STRESS MUST BE ON LITERATURE AS ART'By FRED CAWSEY

Ubyssey Academic Reporter

'English teaching would be far more successful i fstudents could become more involved with literatureas art.

And, says UBC English lecturer Murray Morton ,teaching would become more effective if it was mor esensuous .

Morton was interviewed Thursday in his office,a room overflowing with books of every description .

He is one of a new type of teacher at UBC; onethat tosses aside mouldy teaching conventions an dcreates an exciting. learning environment for hisstudents.

Morton says many students don ' t know what artis, and most are afraid to explore anything new ordifferent .

He sometimes brings music and art books to hi sown classes to help in the understanding of literatureas art .

"Ideally," he said, "English courses should betaught using films and records to help the studentsbecome involved with works of art . All the sensesshould be stimulated in teaching literature."

"Or perhaps classes could be taught in art gal-

leries with background music .More courses should be set up like English 300 ,

a seminar-discussion course, Mortonsaid. Works of art should be studiedfor what they are without bringin gin all the usual extraneous intellec-tual apparatus .

And, he said, courses like English200 should be abolished .

"Courses like English 200 repre-sent the core of tradition based onan unquestioned authoritarian sys-tem perpetrated by many teachers .

"English departments in genera lseem to have a bias against anything new . Theyshould be tomorrow thinkers instead of yesterda ythinkers . "

Reputations are set up in a rigid system thatleaves anything new in art ignored or unappreciated ,he said .

"I agree with Sartre when he says that art, likebananas should be eaten when fresh . "

Because of the constant shift of ideas we readanything from previous centuries in translation .

In his classes, Morton tries to make students focuson style.

"Style in living is like style in writing . We tendto dislike those whose style differs from our own .

"Education should be related to the world ofreality . Most English classes could be taking placein the last century, or even on some other planetfor all the relevance they have to world problems."

"My essay topics are an important part of myteaching. I think students can understand thingsbetter if they have something to compare them with,so I assign topics that require a certain amount o fcomparison."

He sometimes finds resistance to his essay topic sbecause many students would rather just go to thelibrary and do a research essay requiring none o ftheir personal opinions .

"I once asked a class to write how they couldchange their own attitudes to world problems . Mostof them completely ignored the topic and did a re -view of the world situation .

Morton would like to see a whole new systemdevelop in which the teacher would act only as aguide to the enrichment of the students .

"This would require secure people who knowwho they are, and might disqualify many academicswho at the moment are hi t formulaeand rigid sets of cat

MANURE MANOEUVRING MASTER MUNTON manages to make his mark in Aggies shit-shovel-ling contest Thursday. The AMS first vice-president has long been known for his outstandingactivity in the field . Education's team placed first, Munton second, Jocks third, Aggies fourth ,Ubyssey fifth . (See story page 3.)

Funds crisi schokes UBC ,dean warns

The next two years at UBC will be among the most criticalthe university has known, says deputy acting president Willia mArmstrong.

Armstrong, dean of applied science, was commenting Thurs-day night on critical difficulties facing the UBC library .

"The library crisis is just one of many serious problemsfacing the university," Armstrong said . "Almost every facultyhas serious space problems.

"It is very unlikely that we will get majorcapital funds for vitally needed projects unti l1969 ."

Regular requests for funds, outlining theshortages at UBC, have been sent to Victoriasince the term of former UBC president Dr .John Macdonald, he said .

He blamed much of the dilemma chokingUBC's finances on rising construction costs .

In 1963, the board of governors sent a listof priorities and projected financial needs t oVictoria as part of a regular university five-year plan .

ARMSTRONG"But for all practical purposes, all the money received

following the five-year report has now vanished," Armstron g

said."A new five year plan, covering the period from 1969 to

1974, is now in the process of compilation at UBC . "

The biggest single problem on campus, he said, is lack o fstudent study and sitting space .

"This is especially true in the library . One way we hope toovercome part of the lack is by erecting several temporar ystudy buildings around campus. "

Immediate study space needs total about 50,000 square feet,which would cost about $500,000 to build, he said . But there isno immediate hope that the money will be granted .

On the lack of money coming to UBC from Victoria, Arm -strong said :

"Not enough priority is being placed on education, althoug heducation minister Peterson has been sympathetic . But he, afterall, is not finance minister . "

ACADIA HOMES NAMEDThe board of governors Tuesday released the names

given to the new Acadia Park residences .

The addresses of the clusters will be Melfa Road andthe names: Keremeos, Oyama, Revelstoke and Salmo . Thehigh rise tower will be addressed Fairview Avenue .

"The solution of the Negro problem requiresa basic restructuring of life in the UnitedStates," says Dr. Herbert Aptheker .

"Advances can be made without socialism ,but only socialism will extirpate racism," Apthe-ker, a major historian of Negro slave revolts ,told 400 students in Brock Thursday .

The civil rights movement is laying the wayfor socialism, he said.

Aptheker, author of 23 books,said the enslavement of blackpeople was basic to capitalismand the development worldimperialism .

"The black people do notwant to disappear, but to ap-pear as equal people, and with-out this, there is a cleargrowing danger of fascism . "

He was optimistic there i snow a greater awareness of the mutual necessityof equality, especially among young people andin churches .

U.S. President Johnson is partly responsibl efor the riots, Aptheker said.

the conditions in the ghettos, the governmentdismissed this as politically undesirable .

"Also, Johnson has legislated greater polic eaction in Negro riots . "

In the discussion period that followed, Apthe-ker said the Communist party was in the centerof the civil rights movement because it is ablack and white party.

When asked about the possibility of an allout war, he said: "We are a violent people, asseen in our foul, aggressive foreign policy, an dthere is a possibility. "

Student senator Gabor Mate said Thursda yie will meet with other student senators an dtudent leaders to discuss aspects of the sit-in .

The sit-in was approved by 600 student sruesday at a mass meeting called to discusshree of the four student senators planned resig-iation over continued senate secrecy .

Senators Mate, Ray Larsen and Kirsten Elmnett were asked by students at the meetin go remain on senate . Miss Emmett, however, ha stwit university and must resign anyway .

Shaun Sulliven, Alma Mater Society presi-lent, Thursday discounted the possibility o frouble occuring if students attempt to enter a;uarded senate meeting room .

Persky said Thursday he was amazed b yhe reaction of non-student senators to the sit-i n,nnouncement .

Science dean Vladimir Okulitch's statemen that senators are not supposed to be responsibl eo their electorate was unbelievable, Persk yaid .

There are alternatives to the sit-in, Perskyaid .

Alumni report gets

lukewarm reception

An alumni association report on university governmen thasn't exactly startled UBC deans and professors, a poll showe dThursday.

The report favored establishment of a government-appointedadvisory board on university government and finance, and op -posed student representation on the board of governors .

Dean of arts Dennis Healy and French department head L . L .Bongie had not read the report when asked for comment Thurs-day .

Acting president Walter Gage said he first saw the repor tlast summer but hadn't had time to study it in detail .

However, Gage said he agreed with the report's genera lrecommendations .

"Students have fairly good access to the board of governorsnow," he said .

"I also think the advisory board is a good idea because th eB.C. government has a right to have its people review the sub-missions of the university ."

Dean of science, V . J . Okulitch, said representation on senategave students an adequate voice in university government .

"The report recognized the reality that state-controlled insti-tutions must have the government as major policy-making body, "he said .

Vancouver lawyer Sholto Ilebenton, chairman of the com-mittee which prepared the report, said Thursday students ar erepresented on the government-appointed board of governor sbecause they vote in provincial elections .

"The recommendations of the committee fall within a demo-cratic framework of government," Ilebenton said .

JANUARY 12, 1968

Name gameThe university naming conunittee, composed of a

group of deans, has made its decision on names for th e

new residence clusters at Acadia Park . As was feared,

the deans chose to decorate the residences with names o f

interior B.C. towns .The new residences will be called Keremeos, Oyaina,

Revelstoke, and Salmo .We do not dispute that all these towns possess fine

scenery and good citizens . But we fail to see just whatsignificance their names have for a university. And we

can't help but su ,pect that the decision has somethingto do with a desire to please the Social Credit hickoc-racy which controls the provincial government in Vic-toria. The hickocracy is partial to Keremeos, Oyama ,Revelstoke, and Salmo .

The reason behind this Socred prejudice is that theparty's political power is rooted in just such places asKeremeos, Oyama, Revelstoke and Salmo. And becausethe government is now in process of making some im-portant financial decisions regarding UBC, the deansfigure UBC needs all the good will it can garner i n

hickocratic circles .But if the aim is to please the Socreds, why stop

at naming some residences after Keremeos, Oyama ,Revelstoke, and Salmo? Why not go Socred all theway?

Why not do away with the comfortable faculty clubdrinking quarters and replace them with a Socred-stylepub, complete with "Mens" and "Ladies" lavatory sign soutside?

Why not put a Pentecostal in charge of the religiou sstudies department ?

And why not a IJBC School of Hardware Merch-antry?

The possibilities for anxious-to-please UBC author-ities are endless . Keep grovelling, scholars .

HideoutRepeatedly emphasized in the debate over senate

secrecy is how unimportant the senate really is bycomparison with the board of governors .

The board controls the money . Consequently it isthe board, despite the blushing denials of some of it smembers, which controls T.JBC academic policy. It isthe board, for example, which decides UBC shouldhave a shabbily undersupported library while the Mac -Millan building for forestry apprentices should be themost lavish on campus .

Perhaps it is the ultimate unimportance of the sen-ate that accounts for the frustration apparent in thepetty senate bickering over such weighty matters aswhether dental assistants should have the right to cal lthemselves professionals. And it is this unimportancewhich is the basis of the puerile insistence of two-third sof the senators that their deliberations must take place insecret .

The senate, unquestionably, is not as important as i tshould be and of this the senators are keenly aware .They badly need something to bolster their tortured egos .The air of importance surrounding an insistence onsecrecy fills the bill neatly .

The non-student senators in the secrecy affair re -mind us of nothing so much as a bunch of kids zealousl yguarding their secret hideout . They have no real reasonfor wanting to keep senate proceedings secret exceptthat it makes them feel more important . Hence, secrec ybecomes an jid in itself.

Mardi Gras takes usto land of lynch mob

By GABOR MATE

Events sometimes o c c u rwhich so strike you with theirsurrealistic absurdity that youcan merely shake your hea dincredulously and mutter : "No ,this can't be happening ." Suchan event is this year's Mard iGras at IJBC.

Mardi Gras, as we all know ,is the annual dancefloor-shin-dig-f or-charity sponsored bythe fraternities and sororities .

In the words of the two -page notice submitted to Th eUbyssey by the Greek LetterSociety, Mardi Gras "provide sa chance for the whole campu sto participate in the excite-ment and anticipation of th erivalry between king andqueen candidates, the carniva latmosphere of the bazaar, th ehilarity of the skits, and thefun of of the two big dances . "

THRILL SSo far so good . We all have

our own individual path to de-cadence just as we all have ourown individual way of gather-ing thrills. Going to a fratern-ity dance and worrying aboutwhich bland-faced, blue-eye dnobody will be crowned MardiGras king is in itself on moreand no less a legitimate meth-od of having fun than is groov-ing on James Brown, smokingpot, dancing to Country Joeand the Fish, or wearing redjackets and throwing snowball sat sciencemen .

In contrast to these otheractivities, however, Mard iGras insists on having atheme around which to weaveits web of "excitement andanticipation ." This fact in itselfis also not objectionable, ifonly the Greeks could restrictthemselves to themes such asAlice In Wonderland or SnowWhite and The Seven Dwarfs .

But no. Such things will no tbe the theme of Mardi Gras

this year . To quote furthe rfrom the above - mentione dnotice: "This year Mardi Grasgoes down the Mississippi b ythe Chatanooga Railroad, stop-ping in at various spots alongthe way to sample nostalgiaand excitement of the dee psouth. The trip will affordplenty of opportunities for en-joying the music and atmos-phere of the Southern States,with snatches of Stephe nFoster and Dixieland bandsand lots of southern hospi-tality."

The mind boggles. The braincurdles. The blood chills . Oneseethes with rage. One bris-tles with hostility . One reactswith shock and disbelief. Or ,at least, one is mildly surpris-ed. One is surprised becauseone did not expect even th efraternities and sororities to b eso out of touch with what ishappening in the world .GAY SONG S

For what is happening i sthat an oppressed portion o fmankind has said "Enough! "to the nostalgia and excite-ment of the deep south . Theyhave revolted against the nos-talgia of the plantation aristo-crats and the excitement of thelynch mobs . For THAT, dearfellow human beings of theGreek Letter Society, is wha tthe old south was primaril yabout. The gay songs of

It is this image of himselfthat the Afro-American is nowstruggling to cast away, justas he is struggling to uproo tand destroy the cultural atti-tudes which have kept him inbondage. Is this really thetime, then, to pay homage tothat oppressive and exploita-tive culture?SLAVER Y

This is not to suggest, how-ever, that the Greek societiesare consciously in favour ofslavery or exploitation. Theysimply have not thought about ,or they do not understand, th eimplications of choosing sucha theme - and that, unfortun-ately, is precisely the point .

But if the Greeks are reallyserious about capturing the"atmosphere of t h e d e e psouth", we have suggestions t omake. They could all dress a sGeorge Wallace . They couldhang a black-faced prisone rduring intermission. Or per-haps they could castrate somesome black men as part of thefloor-show.

THE UBYSSEY

(The following article was written by

David Ristich of the Students' Internationa lMeditation Society.)

When someone says "meditation", does

incense and stone statuary spring to mind ?

Forget it. Is it an alien idea lit dimly for youby candles cooked in yak's milk by blindTibetan priests? Forget it . One can meditatesitting quietly in a lighted room with nothingbut oneself.

"To meditate" is surrounded by popularmisconceptions and false associations . Onetends to lump it in with self-hypnosis, religion ,mysticism, auto-suggestion, faith, different bit sof self-delusion . Worse, in some minds it hasassociations with magic beliefs, concentration ,training, the mind; thinking hard, in short ,courses of discipline and hard labor for thenervous system. Meditation is not any of these.It is no struggle. It is not frying to do any-thing .

For 4,000 years or more, people have turn-ed inward to find greater strength, grea tpeace, bliss, energy . They have turned insideto find the source of their own creative ener-gies and have thereby experienced an increas ein its effects . Nothing outside the individua lcan improve the quality of his thought orfeeling. Only by knowing the source o fthought, can one improve the thinking hedoes .

Call it what you like, the source, being . In

Zen they call it Satori, in Buddhism it's Nir-

vana, in Hinduism it 's known as Sat-chit-

ananda (that which is bliss) . It seems to be a

new message, that it's easy to meditate ; Christ

was saying 2,000 years ago, "the kingdom o fheaven is within you ." If teachers of the pasthad something to give the world, it was sim-ple and direct to each person . And it wasabout an experience .

Maharishi has been treated by the new smedia in general as a new face on the "show-biz circuit" ; however, he is the leader of theoldest monastic order on earth, the Shank-aracharya Tradition of Northern India. Whatmakes this ancient order unique in the worl dis that it teaches that fulfillment is naturaland open to anyone . It amounts to nothingmore than turning inside . Learning to makethis turn a perfect, full, 180 degrees, is medita-tion . It takes only a few minutes . Just how toturn around, this is what we teach .

Much attention has been given show peoplelike Donovan but since 1958 this techniquehas been practised by people in all professions.The president of IMS in Germany is a count;in England an orthopedic surgeon ; in Rome ,a senator; in Sweden, the head of a giantprinting and publishing combine . These peoplehave been practising meditation and enjoyin gthe results for years.

By ANDREW HORVAT

If years hence, I were torecall the performance thatMr. James Oliver BuswellIV gave with the Vancouve rSymphony last Sunday, Iwould probably remembe rMr. Buswell's name, espec-ially the "fourth" bit at theend.

'My memory is only humanand I might entirely forgetthe perfection of the Van-couver Symphony u n d e rPeter Eros, playing Strauss 'Don Juan, and Copland'sBilly the Kid .

Buswell the Fourth, no tto be confused with a Buswel lby any other number, mightsink into the recesses of mymind along with the musicianheroes of many late nightmovies, whose emotional out-bursts amid strains of dubbe dTschaikowsky, have helpedme pass many sleepless mid-night hours .

Buswell' s Tschaikowskywas straight out of movieslike The Gershwin Story,embellished with grunts, vio-lent body contortions, andgyrations of the violin . Onlythe commercials were miss-ing .

The acrobatics o f t h eTschaikowsky Violin Concer-to were incidental to Bus-well's own footstomping, asophisticated hoedown.

Buswell might not survivein my memory, but his adol-escent charm (he is only 20)certainly touched the heart sof the predominantly elderlyaudience (I am only 21),some of whom, I'm sure musthave recalled many previousrenderings of Tschaikowsky' sConcerto by child prodigie slike Yascha Heifitz, or Mis-cha Elman, violinists whos emusical tantrums broughtsmiles to mothers who wererearing their own Mischas .

Buswell 's show was defin-itely not for children. Notbecause it was adult enter-tainment, but because Bus-well represents the image o fthe "temperamental artist"which fits the stereotype of ageneration of Americans, whoare thankfully leaving thelimelight . The eccentric long-haired musician who wor-

ships foreign gods like Bach ,Beethoven, and Brahms, isreplaced by the Beatles, wh othrough their new albums ,have probably brought great-er respect for symphonicmusic than Buswell couldever do, that is unless he be-gins to play Tschaikowsky onan electric guitar .

B u s w e 11 ' s ostentatiou shandshaking of conductorand concertmaster, beforeand after the concert, his pro-longed bowing to the audi-ence, were at par with thetear-drenching of the Tschai-kowsky . They both served todecorate the otherwise drabQueen Elizabeth Hall .

But both Buswell andTschaikowsky lose signific-ance daily, despite News -week's comment on Buswellas "the prototype of the newAmerican violinist."

Could this gross piece ofanachronism mean that News-week, too, is losing signific-ance daily? Perhaps, yearshence I might not be able t oremember the existence ofthat magazine .

I hope that despite Bus-well's ostentatious bang, thequality whimper of the Van-couver Symphony shall re -main in my memory.

Donovan is the most varied and the mos tconsistently good singer-poet since Bob Dylan .

In his career of about five years, he hasranged through folk and protest songs, an dfolk-rock ballads and drug-scene rock, toarrive at his own splendiferous blend of al lof them.

Wear your love like Heaven, his lates talbum, is one more advance in the continuin gdevelopment of Donovan's philosophy and art .His previous one, Mellow Yellow, said inessence, "There's something beautiful here" .This one says, "I found it" .

People originally accused him of imitatingBob Dylan, but now the wonder is that no-oneis imitating him. Perhaps that would be im-possible .

He has dropped protest and promise, a shaving accomplished their purpose, and ha sset about exploring the resultant fruition .Others, too, can say

The Confessions of Nat Turner .

By Willian Styron. New York:

Random House.

By BERT HILL

Easily the biggest literary hit of thi syear has been William Styron ' s Confes-sion of Nat Turner . Lodged solidly inthe best selling lists since it was releasedin October the book has won praise fromnearly every reviewer .

The book describes the thoughts ofa black slave Nat Turner who led aslave revolt in 1831 that ended in th edeath of sixty whites and arrest, trialand execution of Turner and indiscrim-inate slaughter of about a hundredNegroes . As Turner awaited his execu-tion he dictated his thoughts to a white

lawyer Thomas Graywho published 50,00 0copies of the pamphlet .Most of the pamphletshave since disappearedbut Harriet B e e c he rStowe includes one asan appendix to herbook Dred.

If you read the ap-pendix to Dred and you

STYRON read Styron's book youwill be convinced that there were twoNat Turners who led two revolts in thesame place and the same time .

Styron's Nat Turner is a poor sadsoul with a variety of sexual and religi-ous hangups that would have provideda field day for Sigmund Freud.

Poor Nat was a slave brought up ina kindly white Virginian family whichdid him the great favour of teaching himto read after his father disappeared(Oedipal complex established) and set-ting him on the road to freedom whichwas blocked by a combination of eco-nomic stagnation and bad luck . Alongthe road he picked up a lust for whit ewomen and a taste for the hell-fire an ddamnation parts of the Bible .

Thrown into the world he had to re-act to the harsh masters that followedand their ideas of the proper place fo ra slave and the proper positions andmates for sex .

Being a sensitive but generally ma dfellow, he lived in a curious messianicworld where he eventually led a slaverevolt that was put down with the aidof Negro slaves .

Lying in his cell awaiting death, poo rold Nat confessed his sins and thus solv-ed the dilemma of two sides of life ex-pressed through the Old Testament(death, destruction) and the New Testa-ment (love, salvation) . And he went t ohis death thinking about white women.

The Nat Turner of the pamphlet i sanother person .

Lacking the foresight of later am-ateur psychologists, Turner records onlythat he had both parents. There is norecord that his first master treated himat all unusually . There is clear recor dthat Turner was intelligent and imbue dwith the lessons of revolution of theBible.

The reviewer in the New York Re-view of Books thinks that it is just greatthe way Styron pointed out that blind-ing, nihilistic hatred motivated Turnerand says quite plainly that he thinksthis is what novels should be talkingabout: the social issues of the day.

The same Review, which has lately

earned a reputation as the New Left' sliterary voice, should know better thanto peddle an ideological turkey like

Styron's book.Turner says in his pamphlet that he

believed he "was ordained for some greatpurpose in the lands of the almighty. "

Specifically this is how he saw his

mission :"I heard a loud voice in the heavens ,

and saw the Spirit instantly appeared t ome and said the Serpent was loosened,and Christ had laid down the yoke hehad borne for the sins of men, and thatI should take it on and fight against theSerpent, for the time was fast approach-ing when the first should be last and th elast should be first . "

After the uprising has been brutallycrushed, Turner shows none of the guil tStyron lays on him .

Gray: "Do you not find yourself mis-taken now?

Turner : "Was not Christ crucified?"Styron was completely incorrect in

writing that slaves crushed the revolt .Herbert Aptheker, who wrote his Mas-ter's thesis on the Turner revolt, com-ments :

"It is difficult for me to convey themonstrous quality of this lie . Of coursenothing like this happened, and Styroncould only get away with it in this coun-try with its deep racism . "

To show that not vengence butsomething else motivated Turner, welearn in the pamphlet that he baptized awhite man. Aptheker comments that"Turner possessed characteristics of grea tleaders in that he sensed the mood andthe feelings of the masses of his fello wbeings, not only in his immediate envir-onment but generally . "

Turner started off with just sevenmen and few days later he had no fewe rthan seventy fellow participants in whatwas a popular uprising .

Aptheker wrote a book AmericanNegro Slave Revolts which documentsthe more than 250 revolts that came insurges throughout the years of slavery .This destroys Styron's thesis that Turne rled the only sustained revolt . To showhow anxious most people are to believ ethe ineffectuality of rebellion, it is signi-ficant to note that not one reviewerquestioned this thesis .

It would be nice to let Styron off thehook here . After all he does say that heintended "less an historical novel in con-ventional terms than a meditation onhistory" and his credentials as a long

time opponeishould be s iments in theimportant anybetween SoulStyron is a cwin, a longti :fight against

Harper's Magazine pu-

blished a portion of the book and paid$7,500. The new editor of Harper's Wil-lie Morris, another Southern liberal, ha sappointed Styron as alternate book edi-tor of Harper's . Every other month Irv-ing Howe, a prominent social democratwho divides his time between writingand teaching and attacking those to hisleft (a number that increases all thetime), will edit the book section .

The tragedy of this book is that it i scertain to become a classic, with no onegiven an avenue to expose not only thecountless ways in which Styron has play-ed fast and loose with the facts but mostimportantly to expose the philosophicall yabsurd position from which Styron oper-ates .

If the ideological content is some-times obscured in what most critics con-sider a well written book. Time maga-zine just loved the heft of the ax thatStyron had to grind :

"But readers cannot fail to recogniz ethat the shadow of (mad, messianic) NatTurner darkened the streets of Newarkand Detroit in the summer of 1967 —and hovers still . "

When Newsweek did its story on th ebook, a girl reporter approached Apthe-ker and he gave her truth that Turne rwas a mass leader of an oppressed peoplein the tradition of a people who ha dsystematically fought for their freedom .She promised to get the truth across andeven took a copy of his book . Apthekersaid she wouldn't succeed and he wa sright.

Allen Zak speaking from the view-point of a negro faced with the realitie sof North American society summed itup this way in the Los Angeles FreePress :

Once upon a time, it was something lik e"Niggers are born plain brutal ." Today,and Styron is in this tradition, "Ne-e-e-egroes are brutal because of their en-vironmental conditions .

Anything at all, it would seem, i sbetter than to have to face awful fac tthat men like Nat Turner (and StokelyCarmichael, and Rap Brown) are advo-cates of COUNTERviolence. Turner's actwas a blow against the violence of slav-ery, just as the ghetto uprisings of todayare actions taken against systematizedracism, police violence, and countless de-grading and dehumanizing acts againstthe Black people today .

To place the Turner revolt, and byextension Black militancy of today, a sthe acts emotionally disturbed peopleevades the question of what causes re-bellions . It is easy — and the establish-ment media is well aware of this — toview rebels as having their beginningswhen Mom yanked away that tit whenthey were too young too bite .

Nobody, least of all militants in th efreedom movement, would deny thatthey suffer from emotional problems(doesn't everybody?) . The question is ,what has that to do with revolution? D opeople fight against their oppressors be -cause they had unhappy childhoods, qrbecause that oppressor has denied the mlife, liberty and human dignity? Thefact that Styron was forced to re-writehistory in his novel suggests that heknows the answer to that question, andhas opted in favor of the oppressor .

Breasts .

Who needs 'em ?

Montreal is adverse to them . Calgary detec-tives are suspicious of them . Enlightened Van-couver eyes them askance, but still eyes them .

Some of them could yet end up in jail,with owners attached .

The mammaries in question belong to th efemale members of Les Ballets Africaines ,who will be performing in Vancouver, at theQueen E, Saturday and Sunday evenings .

The questions raised are not as . simple asmight appear . Of course it is prudery at itsstupidest to ban these dancers: but, is notallowing them to perform on the grounds tha tthis is "native culture" a subtle form of raceprejudice?

Would white women be allowed to per-form bare-breasted in the name of art?

Meanwhile, nobody seems to spare muchthought for the feelings of the dancers them-selves, who suddenly find themselves being

assailed by foreigners simply for being na-tural. They are by nature shy and sensitivepeople; the arrests come as a shock to them ,and as an insult to their whole culture .

It is surely ludicrous that they shouldrun into such trouble in America, land of th efree, which has given to the world the th-spiration of the topless waitress .

Maybe the entire police department ofMontreal were bottle-fed.

Some of the girls who were arrested inMontreal have been released, on the absurdgrounds that their husbands were also mem-bers of the troupe . But two of the single girlsstill face vice charges . Somebody ought tomarry them, quick .

It would be best if everyone forgot aboutthis ludicrous quibble, and concentrated in-stead on enjoying the dancing.

And if the guy next to you is fuzz, engagehim in conversation on the finer points ofAfrican art .

COLOR by DeLUXE

By STEPHEN SCOBI E

Being vain, I always read my own columnwhen it appears in print . Last week, I noticedthat I had described Far From The Maddin gCrowd as a "faithful, literate, and intelligentadaptation ." This casual phrase, plus the factthat cinema borrows its material from othe rart forms to a greater extent than any otherart, set me thinking in twenty different direc-tions, some of which rather randomly follow.

What do we mean by "faithful" anyway ?Is it at all necessary? Have any of the JamesBond films born the vaguest resemblance t othe homonymous novels? Was Zefferelli' sTaming of the Shrew "faithful"? Does itmatter?

Is it even remotely worthwhile attemptin gto make such subtle distinctions as being faith-ful to the "spirit" of a book (whatever thatmay be) while gaily altering the details ?

How far was Dr. Zhivago vitiated as a filmby Lean's distortions of Pasternak's politics ?

4 Did Orson Welles completely screw up Kafk aby changing the ending of The Trial?

It would be nice to establish a principlethat the book and the film are entirelyseparate artistic entities, and must be judgedin isolation from each other. But, being fal-lible, we always succumb to comparison s(usually an absurd whine that our favoritepassage in the book has been omitted); andoften, when a film is going wrong, you ca nsee why more clearly by referring back tothe book .

Plenty of good films have been based onbooks . How many good books have been basedon films?

There are different problems in adaptingnovels and dramas . One interesting sidelineof the latter is the problem of a play, such asWho's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, which takesplace entirely on one set . The theatre audi-ence is accustomed to this ; but in the cinema ,with its traditionally far greater mobility ofscene, confinement to one set becomes dis-proportionately claustrophobic. (How manyone-room films can you remember, beyondTwelve Angry Men and Rope?) Thus, I would -

n't quarrel with Mike Nicholls for taking partsof Virginia Woolf outdoors .

Adaptation can be seen as an interpretativ erather than a creative art . Is that distinctionworth making, though? (Especially faced withsuch "creative" adaptations as those of Zeffe-relli or Orson Welles .) Come to that, is actin gan interpretative or creative art ?

Coming full circle, back to Far From Th eMadding Crowd, towards the end of that filmSergeant Troy starts disappearing and re-appearing all over the place, and nobody isquite sure why. This is because he is given n oopportunity to reveal or express his motive seither in action or in dialogue — and theseare, apart from the clumsy device of sound -track monologue, the only means cinema hasto reveal its characters .

Whereas a novel can be as subjective as i tlikes, a film remains strictly objective . Filmis very rarely a subjective medium .

This is precisely what Milos Forman wassaying (Page Friday, October 27, 1967) :

"We know many films which just illustrat ebooks, and always you are a little disappoint-ed, you find the book was much better thanthe movie . That's because, in my opinion, th efilm-maker has tried to destroy the surface, tolook inside the easy way. The film whichexcites me is the film which leaves the sur-face like it is and you can see inside verydeeply without destroying the surface ."

This effect, of depth revealed through un-broken surface, of profound insight achievedby absolute objectivity, seems to me to be atleast one possible definition of the essence ofthe cinematic art .

There will, of course, always be a placefor film adaptations ; but the mere academic" illustration", such as Far From The Maddin gCrowd, will always remain parasitic, it willnever be great cinema in its own right .

Meanwhile, hurry downtown to enjoy WaltDisney's version of Rudyard Kipling, VictorFleming's version of Margaret Mitchell, andJoshua Logan's version of Lerner and Lowe' sversion of T. H. White's version of Malory' sversion of Layamon's version of Geoffrey ofMonmouth's version of somebody else's ver-sion of . .

Basketball Bird sgo Bison huntin g

By BOB BANNO

Is the Manitoba bison extinct ?

You'll never get UBC Thunderbird basketball coach PeterMullins to believe it .

The herd he's worried about is thriving at the University ofManitoba and have stampeded their way to a first-place tie wit hUBC in Western Intercollegiate Conference standings .

Mullins and his heroes journey to Winnipeg today for acollision course series with the Bisons that could decide theultimate champ .

Missing the crucial clash will be Thunderbird captain IanDixon, still out with torn ligaments .

Replacement Dave Rice, however, has been trying hard t omake people forget the starry Dixon .

The UBC Thunderbird swimmers and I travel to Washingtonthis weekend, not to look at its snow-covered scenery but t oattend two meets .

Our itinerary covers two state colleges—Western Washing-ton State College at Bellingham and Central Washington atEllensberg.

Coach Jack Pomfret, while expecting a good showing fromall his men, is really setting his sights on the Canadian Inter-collegiate Championships to be held in March .

As it appears to this reporter, most of the Birds' strength lie saround its middle distance freestyler, its breaststrokers an dwhatever events freshman Ken Campbell choses to win .

UBC records might even be garnered by veteran Phil Winchand fresh Phil Dockerill in these, the first two meets of the newseason .

a time to be happy.Joe Johnson, UBC soccer coach, was happy and optimistic

"We lost last week's game because we were weak on defenceand the forward line," he said . "This week we'll move JimBerry and Gene Ross up to defence and John Haar and Rus sHillman to the forward line . This should make quite a difference . "

BJORN SIMONSEN

Recently, British Columbia Safety Council director Stev eKershaw made a statement to the effect that the number of skierswho are being injured on the hills is reaching an alarmingnumber .

Kershaw puts much of the blame on the ski resort operatorswho, he charges, do nothing to combat the ever increasing tollof injuries .

He also blames the lack of education concerning safety onthe hills and suggests that this could be initiate dfrom the time a person buys his equipment tothe moment when he begins to ski .

Kershaw's suggestions are well taken buthis claim that the accident rate is mountingseems ill-founded according to reports fromlocal ski patrols .

It is probably quite safe to speculate thatinjury rates in the last ten years have beendropping when one considers the tremendousexplosion in skier population during that time.

SIMONSEN This can probably be credited largely tothe development of safety bindings by the ski industry . Only asmall role has been played by means of educating skiers abou tthe hazards of the sport itself .

Basically what education means here is making the skie r(especially the beginners) aware of the consequences of skiin g"over one's head" (ultimately out of control), how to take a fallwhen you see it coming and how to use facilities such as ropetows, poma lifts, "T" bars, etc .

The role of educating the skier about the basic dos anddon'ts rests with the ski schools and for that reason alone, skilessons are a good investment . The ski patrol can only play aminor role in preventing accidents, their job is to come to the ai dof an injured skier .

In passing I should mention that the UBC ski team didpoorly (sorry guys) at Revelstoke last weekend . It was their firstmeet of the racing season and they blame their showing on acombination of poor seating, and icy course and a very success-ful "training" session at Rossland over the holidays .

"Despite the fact that wehave had a relatively easytime with the Bisons in pre-vious years," Hindmarch ex-plained, "any team that cantake a pair of games from th ealways powerful University ofAlberta, squad has to be con-sidered a threat to the leaguetitle . "

Hindmarch hopes to counterManitoba's powerful offens ewith a new line he put to-gether in the Calgary series .This line consists of Jac kLittler, Miles Desharnais an dTom Koretchuck .

At Calgary, they proved t obe the Birds' most potent of-fensive line .

Hindmarch says that thisline has a little of everything .Littler provides plenty ofstickhandling and skating abil-ity, Desharnais has the hardand quick shot, while Koret-chuck keeps the oppositionworried with his ruggedness .

The Birds have the addedadvantage of playing at homeagainst the Bisons . They playin Thunderbird Arena Fridayat 8 p.m. and Saturday at 2 :3 0p.m.
