THES E are the requests The Ubyssey will mak e to students at the special Alma Mater meet- ing Thursday of next week, unless Studen t Council rescinds itd motion of censure ; 1, that the AMS repudiate the motion o f censure against The Ubyssey passed b y Student Council . 2 . that the AMS affirm full confidence i n the editorial board of The Ubyssey . Should they be denied, the entire Ubyssey editorial board will of course resign . We wil l not continue without student confidence . It would be regrettable If Student Coun- cil refused to rescind Its motion ; it is unfai r to students to be faced with such an issue . But The Ubyssey cannot accept such a repudiation of its right to say what it feels , in any way It chooses. Nor can we regard the motion of censur e as anything but a motion of non-confidence , obviously such when its instigator, member- at-large Ron Longstaffe, contended that Edi- tor-in-chief Peter Sypnowich unmet automatic- . ally resign "if he has any honor. " The fact of the matter is that Studen t Council members flagrantly abused their of . flees. They used their position to record per- sonal opinions. They simply did not like Th e Ubyssey's exposure of the three discriminat- ory fraternities . Talk of "good taste" in the expose's pre- sentation is ludicrous . Councillors shoul d know The Ubyssey has a managing edito r who is much more qualified to judge news - paper makeup and design than they . It is significant that the only counci l member who voted against the motion is no t a member of a fraternity, while those wh o voted for it are almost exclusively fraternit y and sorority members . As members of Greek Letter Societies , they were entitled to disagree with the Ubys- sey . As members of Student Council, the y were not . Even fraternity and sorority member s who may indeed feel that The Ubyssey wa s unjustified in revealing the names of the discriminatory fraternities in such a way , may surely agree The Ubyssey must be guar- anteed the right to say what it thinks withou t an insidious form of censorship on the par t of Student Council. We hope that Student Council will with - draw its motion . Certainly it was hesitant t o pass a stronger motion at its Monday meet- ing, finally settling for a weak reference t o "good taste. " We feel certain Student Councillors coul d not have been aware of exactly what the y were doing. We urge them to reconsider their motion . A second look has never disgraced an y public body. A second look by Student Counci l would certainly be more to its credit tha n the original motion of censure .

It would be regrettable If Student Coun-cil refused to rescind Its motion; it is unfair

in any way It chooses.

Nor can we regard the motion of censureas anything but a motion of non-confidence,obviously such when its instigator, member-at-large Ron Longstaffe, contended that Edi-tor-in-chief Peter Sypnowich unmet automatic- .

We hope that Student Council will with -draw its motion . Certainly it was hesitant t opass a stronger motion at its Monday meet-ing, finally settling for a weak reference to"good taste."

We feel certain Student Councillors couldnot have been aware of exactly what theywere doing.

Censure ActionFleas

Here is a review of Studen tCouncil's decision to "censure "the Ubyssey Monday .

Moved by Longstaffe, second-edy by Bray "that The Ubysseybe censured for the taste em-ployed in naming fraternitie swith discriminatory clauses . "

Moved by Angel, secondedby Bray "that Council go intocommittee of the whole ."

Ubyssey editor Pat Carneyobjected to the motion, o ngrounds -that council membe rand Editor-in-Chief Peter Syp-nowich was unable to atten dthe meeting, and students oncampus had right to know wha thappened at Council Meetings .

Council agreed to keep th ediscussion free of "personal-ities," and Angel's motion wasdefeated .

Public Relations Officer Dan-ny Goldsmith objected to themotion as worded, pointing outthat students might miscontru eCouncil's intention in censurin gthe Ubyssey .

ByRod Smith and Sandy Ross

Editor's Note; In the interestsof fostering a distinctive Cana-dian culture, and to instill i dUBC students a sense of aware-ness of their glorious nationa lheritage, The Ubyssey has com-missioned a series of "flash-backs" on famous incidents i nCanadian history.STATU E

In the sleepy little French-Canadian hamlet of Duplessis-ville, in the shadow of th equaint old habitant cathedral ,there stands a statue, a relicof Canada's glorious past .Standing here, the travellerfeels at one with the past, hefeels an instinctive kinshipwith those hardy pioneer swho, today forgotten and un-sung, wrested this great landfrom the heathen Indians !

A feat truly magnificentwhen you consider that theheathen Indian didn't want tolet it go .

• This statue was raised man yyears ago to commemorate thedeeds of one of these hardypioneers .

In this hectic modern age,her story is forgotten . But thecurious traveller may seek be-neath the pigeon droppingscovering a plaque, and find th einspiring story of Madam Le-moulin, one of Canada's hard-iest pioneers .

Yes, Madam Lemoulin wa shardy all right . All the voya-geurs said she was the hardiest .

As proprietress of a rest andrelaxation center that was fam-ed from Cataraqui to Baffi nBay, she knew every voyageurin the woods . , . by his firstname.WHISKEY BLANC

She was a hearty companionto these rough men . They usedto josh good-naturedly amongthemselves that a night at Ma-dam Lemoulin's and a quartof whiskey blanc was enoughto keep any man satisfied withstrangling beaver for anothe rsix months, by gar !

It was a common sight tosee the hardy voyageurs, plod -cling through the steamingmuskeg in search of the wil ybeaver, stop suddenly, nudg eeach other slyly and chuckle ,"Only five months 'tit Mada mLemoulin's, har, har! "McKENZIE TOO

In fact, when Alexander Mc-Kenzie reached the Pacific an dpainted his famous inscriptionon a rock at Bella Bella, headded in smaller letters (andyou won't hear- this from thosemouldy old professors) "Whe nIn Duplessisville, visit MadamLemoulin's . "POLISHING

One night, shortly before thevoyageurs were due to retur nfrom the weds, Madam Lemou-lin was kneeling quietly in th eparlour, licking the whiskey-stains from the rough-hew nfloor, a picture of domesticpeace .

Suddenly, gruff voices wereheard without, and a harshknock sounded on the door .

Picking the splinters from he rsoft, pink tongue, the good ma-clam flung open the door, anti-cipating a sloppy kiss and bear -like hug from some out-of-sea-son Voyageur . Instead, shewas greeted with a blast ofIrish whiskey fumes . and asharp jab in the ribs with a claypipe, as a crowd of men burs tinto the room .THE FENIAN S

"Mon Dieu! Sacre Camillion !Who are these 1-Ioudes'? I d onot know their , . . names," sh ecried ." Faith and begorrah, we'r eFenians," said the leader, "an dwe've come to deliver you fro mthe yoke of British internation-al imperialistic colonial exploi-tation . "

With that he broke into afast chorus of "Come back t oErin" and began to juggle thre eIrish potatoes while his corn -pan ions reverently fingered"Parnell for President" buttons .

"'Silly b . . . s," said Mada mLemoulin .

SAVE THIS PAPER!!! Du eti the big Ubyssey fraternityargument, Madam Lemoulinmust be cut off in Mid-Fen-ian . Goddam Ubyssey . God-dam Frets .

The Ubyssey's present fightto maintain its editorial inde-pendence is the latest in a longseries of similar battles .

The skirmishes have been o fall sizes, but two in particula rwill always remain deeply etch-ed in UBC mempry .

These are the suspension ofeditor-In-chief Ronald Gran-tham in 1931, and the firing ofEditor-in-chief Les Armour i n1951 .

Les Armour was prd'aablythe most hated controversia lstudent UBC has ever seen .Many still hate him, and manymore still admire him.

He attacked Student Counci lmembers as they had neverbeen attacked before, frequent-ly in signed editorials .

In one editorial he referre dto four council members ' a s"gutless wonders" and blaste deach one of them in turn .

Student Council demande dArmour's resignation . The en -tire Uayssey staff walked outwith him.

A fiery Alma Mater Society ,general meeting passed a vote 'of confidence in Armour an dreinstated him as editor-in-ch :cf .

Many of the speakers admit-ted that they did not agree wit hthe 'contents of the editorialsbut supported Armour's right t oexpress his opinions freely .

In 1931, university presiden tL. S. Klinck suspended' editor-in-chief Ronald Grantham fo rprinting editorials criticizingthe provincial government .

have any at all .

Every undergraduate student at this university is a

member of FCUS, yet how many know it? They should know ,

at least, that 20 cents is taken from their fees for membership

In the federation.

The NFCUS wants to raise the charge to 50 cents . Forwhat? Twenty cents is too much to pay for joining an organi-zation you do not know exists .

However, this time blame does not 'rest on the some-times irresponsible shoulders of Canada's student body .

The point is that NFCUS has 'done exactly nothing to

warrant esteem in the students' eyes.

NFCUS was organized, as its successful predecessor

also was, primarily to effectively campaign for students rights

in Canada . Even if this was not so NFCUS, it has been proven ,

cannot operate if it does not carry out this type of activity .

Unless the Federation adopts a more militant policy it i s

doomed to settle in the grave it is digging for itself.

NFCUS leaders of the past few years all have suffered

from a serious lack of perspective .

The issues around which unifying student action coul ddevelop are not lacking .

Scholarships, text book prices, transit fares, housing ,

and fees are but a few of student problems that need actio n

—if not action they at least bear looking into .

The average student, also is more concerned with, an daffected by, economic issues . It is around issues like low

transit fares that NFCUS can win the support and interest

of students.National campaigns to alleviate unnecessary or unjus t

elements in a person's brief encounter with higher education ,

presupposes a strong union .The University of Toronto plans to initiate a nation-wid e

campaign for scholarships under NFCUS' banner . Demandsare to be based on the recommendations of the MasseyReport.

This is godd—it is excellent . It is to be hoped that afew minority colleges do not scuttle this idea as they havedone others of merit in the past .

Student meetings, forums and other expressions of unit ycan all be built around this issue alone . This could well bethe answer to NFCUS ' apathy, dilemma .

The scholarship fight is just one of the main issue saround which Canadian students could unite .

We are not advocating issues for the sake of such as i twere . Nor are we advocating NFCUS direct its energy to -ward rabble rousing.

What we are suggesting is that Canadian universit ystudents have problems and would welcome any move to -wards a solution of them. Further, NFCUS sponsored cam-paigns around such issues would firstly, perform a valuabl enational service and secondly, transform NFCUS from afinancial drag into an active and strong student union .

By acting on this available stimulus, NFCUS can be-come a national student organization worthy of the name .

True, NFCUS performs worthwhile, however limitedfunctions as it- is . We are too ready to recognize the valu-able work it does in the field of tours, seminars and ex -changes .

But the facts point out clearly that Canadian student sneed and want more than a travel bureau .

Unity breeds unity .

Suffering Suffrage

We can understand Miss Sutton's evasive explanatio nof the election "mixup", but we do not condone it .

We think that Mitts Sultan sltoulcl have come right ou tand admitted she failed to have the proper preferentia lballots printed, instead of t ; .i1kind vaguely oaf a "clea rmajority . "

Discussion followed on whe-ther Council had control ove reditorial content of the Ubys -sey .

C LASSIFIE DPresident Dick Underhill re -minded council of its duty to prevent campus organization sfrom "embarrassing" council .

Council decided it would no tbe 'wise' to criticizes the editor-ial content, and to confine criti-cisms to the manner of reveal-ing the discriminatory frater-nities .

Members agreed presentatio nwas in "poor taste ." Underhil lstated council did not object t orevealing the discriminatoryfraternities, but to the wa ywhich they were revealed .

Longstaffe complained Syp-nowich was using the Ubysse yto vent his' "personal feelingsagainst fraternities . "

I .fbyssey representatives told 'council the action received un-animous backing of the editor-ial board .

They also pointed out a storyand editorial in the same issuecongratulating two fraternitiesfor removing discriminatoryclauses.

Goldsmith urged council toconsider the effects of the mo-tion of censure . He said the re-sulting publicity might harmthe three fraternities on othe rcampuses .

When asked about possiblereaction of the Ubyssey to th emotion, Pat Carney declaredshe did not care to prophes ythe Ubyssey's stand .

She urged council to con-sider the possible outcome"carefully . "

Undergraduate Societie sChairman Monte McKay sai dthe motion of censure was ineffeot a vote of "non-confi-"dente" in Sypnowich .

Underhill denied this .Longstaffe added that Syp-

nowich should resign if he wa sa "man of honor ."

Council amended the motio nto read "that the PublicationsBoard be censured for thetaste employed in the way i nwhich fraternities with discrim-inatory clauses were named i n

Ate ,end of this week to attend the annual NFCUS confer-

ence there. He no doubt will take with him ample speech-

making material—it is unfortunate that he will not be taking

-little student interest also .

The Ubyssey has run polls in the past gauging studentinterest and knowledge concerning campus "politics" . These

polls have yielded disheartening results in the main .

Further evidence of a serious lack of interest on the part

of students is the conception many have of the NationalFederation of Canadian University Students—if they indeed

A record number of 490 stu-dents from 87 different coun-tries are registered at Universityof B.C . this year .

Special classes in English arebeing held for 34 of the students ,mostly immigrants, who speaklittle or no English and are un-able to uderstand lectures inEnglish .

Alez Weinman, professor ofSlavonic Studies and coordinato rof foreign student services, sai dthe number of non-Canadian stu-dents probably showed a mark-ed increase over last year and a300 percent increase yin the pastfour years .

Slightly more than 300 non-Canadians were known to havestudied at UBC last year, bu tthere were probably several oth-era not known to university of-ficials, he said .

This year for the first tim estudents were asked at registra-tion to fill out a form statingtheir citizenship .

The 67 foreign countries re -presented- this year shows amarked increase over the 43 re -presented last year.

Largest number of non-Can adiana came from the UnitedKingdom which has 84 student sregistered. Sixty students areUnited States citizens .

Largest European group is th e46 German citizens with 23 stu-dents from the Netherlands pro-viding a second large group.

A large Influx of student sfrom Trinidad which broughttheir total to 33 this year hav eadded a calypso flavor to th ecosmopolitan atmosphere .

IT'S ALL IN HOWYOU LOOK AT IT

In the dark ages of UBC American football—the imme-

diate post-war era—the 'Birds 'seldom won games .

In fact they seldom scored touchdowns. A Thunderbird

TD folllowed by a convert provoked an hysteria that woul d

have to be seen to be believed. Newspapers the following Mon-

day would blare something like :

BIRDS DROP THRILLER 52 to 7

"Great Last Quarter Rally Just Falls Short— Coach Happy "Patriotic students would enthusiastically pity Varsity's

next Saturday's victims . The hero who scored the touchdown—(a 50-yard desperation pass by the biggest and strongest ,who could cross all six toes of both feet for luck—this parago nwould have to suffer a week of freshy adulation and sororit yworship.

- THE UBYSSEY

GOOD OLD ARMCHAIR TYPE

Prior to the Saturday game the sports pages and arm -chair quarter-backs would figuratively chew their lips, scowl ,and plot strategy . The resulting "copy" would read:

SPIRIT WILL WIN"Coach" . . (and a succession of names which

changed every year) . . . predicts his boys will fightto the end.

"We're really 'up' for this," coach said. "Neverseen the like of it; we'll fight to the last half-back.Skeptics are in for a shock."

And so on.With a 50-point shellacking—or "edging" depending on

one's view—the coach proclaims pride in 'his "boys", and howencouraging he finds the loss . Proves they are "human, or forthe birds, or something .

This state of affairs went on for years—not like the pres-ent. A success of "Stars" graduated from varsity and dis-appeared, leaving a football record of touchdowns, much lesswins, as rare as Rhodes Scholars at Borstal .

DIFFERENT ONES, TOO

With wholesome regularity coaches came to UBC, opti-mistic and theorizing, and departed the following season, broke nand dejected—yet all bitterly "proud" of their wards . Not$ilis now; now on the campus we have a team what is ateam ?

Consider their record for three games . An 8 to .5 loss toFrance's McGill University, which is actually a moral victory ;a 20 to 0 fluke loss to semi-pro Seattle, which is actually a mora lvictory; a 6 to 0 upset by Pacific Lutherans, which is actuallyp moral victory . Three moral victories ; no losses! And theseason has just begun, Not like the old days for sure—thoughthere WAS the occasional moral victory even then, when the"boys" scored a point.

AT LEASP THERE WAS SOMETHING

And where are the "Stars" of the 1946-50 era? Dougie Reid ,an all-time U,BC "great"—and he was just that—now battle sfor B.C . Lions. (Another team good at winning "morally" )Dmittri Goulobef, a perennial end who averaged five injuriesper quarter with the Thunderbirds, did fairly well with Ed-monton Eskimos .

Don Lofd held his own with Eskimos, and now is withthe Stukus' Lions helping lieid and Jack Hutchinson. All-StarHerb Capozzi is with the,, league leading Montreal Alouette ssomewhere east of Canada !

Dave McFarlene played a year with Calgary (last in ',ki3)and then returned to UBC to help coach football . Bill Kush-ner at present is a lineman with the same Calgarians (secon dlast) .

TO THE FIELD SHOULD BE SHORTE R

These, and many others are plying the trade they learne dat UBC Stadium, for the Pay-for-Play (or vice-versa) athlete sacross Canada. It is heartening to see such success developfrom such inauspicious football beginnings—of the "old" days .

Today, for the first time since 1946, U13C looks as if i tmight have a football contender of authentic dark-horse pro-portions. At times they may resemble the Birds of the pas t—especially from the enemy 15-yard line to the goal ; atother times their style of play is more indicative of the cel lcalculating calmness conducive to canny craftsmanship .

Enough is too much . Let's go support the chilly cheer -leaders rouse the Birds to further glory, and, all else failing, tofuture moral victories .

BADMINTON CITY LEAGUEHOPEFULS MEET TONIGHT

All badminton players interested in playing in thecity league, either for the "B" or "C" team, are to meet i nthe Memorial Gymnasium at 7 :30 tonight . Those unable toattend should contact either Geoff Conway, Ken Noble ,or Charlotte Warren .

Formosan Club

To Meet Leafs

By P. J. Worthingto nOn Tuesday, October 1, sports fans will have a once-in-a -

lifetime chance to see the Republic pf China's National,basket -__ --. .,. ball team in action. •

At eight p.m. Tuesday in theMemorial gym, the highly tout-ed team from Taipeh, Formosa ,(en route to Brazil for the 2ndWorld Championships), willsquare off against the player-bolstered - Vancouver Clover-Leafs ,

The Chinese Nationalist tea mis rather an unknown quantity ;however, it is a fact that they los ta 2.point overtime match to th eUniversity of . Oregon recently .This in itself is indication enoughthat they are a high calibre bal lclub, which need fear no one on .the court .UNTRIED

The Leafs themselves are an.untried aggregation of "Stars "this year, but ex-UBC-ers likeNev Monroe, Reid Mitchell andNormie Watt, are almost sureguarantees for fast-breaking ,glue-fingered action .

The Formosans play an exhibi-tion game in Houston, Texas, o nOctober 14, and then move on toBrazil, where they,may well meetCanada's representative., theWinnipeg Pauline, How thaLeafsfare against the powerful Chin-ese, may be a preview of theirchances for Dominion supremacynext spring.HIGHLIGHT

At any rate Tuesdays tilt looksto be a highlight of the basket-ball season—which has yet tocomence. Sort of like Cocktailsfor breakfast; Meat-balls a lamode; or a champagne milkshake .

So don't miss Tuesday's one-ight basketball show at theyin; remember that Opportun-

ity, Lightning, and Formosa nbasketball exhibitions, rarelystrike twice .

The poor man's marathon--o rthe annual varsity cross-countryclassic---will be run in Novem-ber .

The ccurse is tentatively laidout to pass through the slum s(Aggie area), down through West -brook Camp, and across thedriveway to Chancellor Boule-vard, From there it goes up pas tthe Holy Order's Colleges, andback to the stadium, where thewhole thing began. There, underthe blazing sun of a fall noon ,the eventual winner will stagge rgloriously around the !/a miletrack and have his name in-scribed Up-Yonder in the . UBCrecord book---ift they can find it .HOW LONG?

The race is between two an dthree miles long, the exact dis-tnace IS known, but apparentlyremains a closely guarded Phy s

'Ed secret . None but fourth yearfootball players and their girl-friends are willingly told th etrue measurements, and eve nthen it is discreetly done in th e

ALSO BY PETE It is primarily an intra-mura levent, with points going to th ecompeting organizations . That is ,each organization is permitte dto enter an unlimited numbe rof "runners," with the first fiv efinishers earning points for theirteams. The competitor is awardedpoints depending on the positionof his finish .UNDERSTAND

For example the race winnerreceives one point ; second is al-ioted two; third, three, and so

4on down the line. The intra-mural group with the lowest ag-gregate point total is declaredthe victor .ELIGIBL E

So all aspirants to cross- coun-try fame would do well to com-mence training forthwith fo rthe big test . Otherwise instance sof fashionable Jim Peters-is mmay once .again be enacted—though neither Dr. MacKenzi enor Bob Osborne is expected t orecommend chrome medals fo rgallant failures .IN FORMATIO N

We Must Beat Eastern

RUNNER'S ANNUAL CAMPUSCOOK'S TOUR ON AGAIN

tinsen, the fastest 190 lbs. Inthe district, running at fullback .

These two, with a small nuc-leus of holdovers, will lead th etraditionally razzle-dazzle East-.rn offence. It's one to keep thefans yelling too, using plays fro mWashington State and Michigan .

SWITCHERO OAn unbalanced line will be

used with a shift from a T-forma-tion into a Notre Dame bo xwith flankers . The plays will bestrictly wide-open with powerplays going wide, and passes andlaterals filling the air ,

Coryell will send the boysinto the game using his stan-dard split-T which showed itspower against Seattle Ramblers .It will run at full strength with

both Jim Boulding and Joh nNewton looking for lots of yards .THROW IN

But Coach Don Coryell wil lthrow in a rough defense es-pecially engineered for Eastern' stype of ball handling .

The feeling in the blue andgold camp is the Thunderbird swill take this one, and give UDCits first conference win in threeyears, As mentioned before, th eSavages trounced 18-0 by thesame team that beat PLC 7 . 6and should have lost .

And as you know, the Birdscould have won that game o nSaturday against the Clads . Soif you want to compare scores ,a popular but unreliable method ,we should beat Eastern by some -thing like two touchdowns ,
