'The Russian Five Year Plan is notan end in itself, but rather a jumpin goff point for further planning and de-velopment" was the gist of an addressgiven by Professor J. Friend Day on"The Economic effects of the successof the Russian Five Year Plan onCanada and the United States" befor ethe Association of Professional En-gineer..
In tackling a subject of this bindProfessor Day streamed the importanc aof the history of .Russia prior to theformulation of this gigantic scheme .He said that Russia was a vast area ,similar in many respects, In dlimte ,geographical relation to liii marketsof the world, and produce, to the con-tinent of North America taken as awhole . The westernization of this al -most immeasurable area had bee ndeliberately held back by the policyof the Czars, because they believed inthe possllility of the development o fa distinctive Slavic civilization. Healso stressed the fact that after thewar, Russia had to build up her eco-nomic structure from virtual ruin,while she could not obtain creditabroad; she was trying to build up,under a condition of economic block-ade, a trade machine suitable for torn -Petition in international trade .
In 1021, Lenin, one of the greatestmen of modern times, established anew economic order : that is, he abo-lished private property rights, ai dmade trading a governmental mono -poly, acid Prof, Day. Lenin, however,saw the folly of a rigid enforcemen tof this policy, and allowed trading forprofit within the boundaries of th ecountry, and recognized the rights ofprivate property In fact, if not I ntheory . The effects of allowing inter-nal trade to be carried on with theobject of obtaining profit, were verygratifying, but it was soon realizedtht "these traders were getting toomuch pow, and so a pOlicy oi liqul.dalton Was inaugurated . "It Is rather%tflg*o not,.,, that in Ru$a the

Their program included mlnlng,for-estry, electrical engineering, industrygeneral, and agriculture. Their dif-ficulties were the Slavic attitude tolabor, the innate dreaminess of theSlavic outlook, and tue tremendou swill power necessary for a practica l

Letters Club
Hears Paper
On Fairy Tales
"Some night when the sun in dark -ness dips
We'll seek that dreamland oldenAnd you shall touch with your fin-

promised Jean Cameron in the paperon Fairy Tales which she read at ameeting of the Letters Club at thehome of Dean Bollert Tuesday even-ing, October 13.
"Modern civilization and our Purl .tonic tendencies," she said, "have pre-vailed to banish most of our actua lbeliefs in Fairies and their butnothing can take from those whoreally joy in the "wee folk" thecharm of makebelleve .
Although we no longer regard fair slea with superstitious awl we volun-tarily suspend our disbelief UId "clapwith sheer delight when called uponto save Tinkerbell's life . "
Story tellin g is 'a very ancient ar tand the stories told by the savagesdiffer very little from the more pol.Ished products of a sophisticated a ge .Fairy tales are an important divisionof all folk tales and have been nunii ddown by oral as well as 'by Writte nirditon from age to age.
"The simplest and most work.bleclassification of fairy tales," said Mis sCameron, "seems to be divide theminto aegis and the German Marcliitnor nursery tales,"
" Before the time of Petrault ther e
Iwere fe printed tales . The earliestcollections the Mont Piacevoll, waspublished by Straparola, a native o fCeravagglo, in 1550.

Scenes at K.11.S.
Prove Popular
Presenting a series of scenes fromShakespeare, a group of English actorsentertained under the auspice.' of theL .S .E . at Kitsllano High School Audi .torlum Tuesday night .
The company, composed of LeslieManners, Jessica Dale-Lee, Marjori eHansen (pianist) and Maureen Otut e(dancer), showed remarkable vereati-lit,, all the Shakespearean roles beingtaken by the first two,
The Morocco Casket scene from 'Th eMerchant of Vepkte,' a scene fromHamlet combining three of the greatsoliloquies with 'Hamlet's reviling ofhis mother, Antony's oration over thebody of Caesar, Shylock and Porti ain the Trial Scene, the encounter ofJacques and Rosalind in 'As You Lik eIt,' and excerpts ., from 'The Tamingof the Shrew' were the parts selected,
Leslie Manners was at his best a sPetruchio in 'As You Like It,' HisShylock was also an excellent por-trayal, and his Mark Antony was verywell done . As Hamlet he gave a goodinterpretation, though in appearancehe fell short of the ideal .
Jessica Dale-Lee proved somewhat'stagey' as Portia in the Casket Scene,but very capable in the Trial Scene .She carried her other roles well, es-pecially in 'The Taming of the Shrew . 'Between scenes she sang 'Sigh NoMore, Ladies,' 'Mistress Mine, WhereAre You Roaming,' and 'When ThatI Was a Little Tiny Boy, '
Maureen Grute gave two dances ,'Roman Dance' and 'Humming Bird. 'The latter was executed with themore grace and poise .
Costumes were colourful, but set-tings were dispensed with, the com-pany depending on the excellence o fits elocution for effect .

"The verse is harder than the chor-us, but then, the chorus is easier tha nthe verse," Harold King explained t oa throng of students when he intro-duced his new song at the Canad-ian Rugby pep meeting last Friday .The song writer and his orchestraprovided most of the entertainmen tat the noon-hour gathering. Oneskit was staged.
To get things going, the sweat-shirt musicians took a deep breat hand waded through "Nobody's Sweet-heart Now." Their efforts receivedan encouraging amount of applaus eand the usual bombardment of lunc hpaper.
The students, however, were wait-ing for "Hail, U . B. C." and not unti lit was played did they unleash thei renthusiasm, The words of the son ghad been printed and distributedthrough the audience and the stud -ants were given their first oppor-tunity of singing it .

CLASSICS CLUBThe opening meeting of the Classics

The singingof a popular song in Latin was a ninnovation of the evening which, i tis hoped, will be continued at futuremeetings, After the' serving of re -freshments a vote of h wasmoved to Dr. and ,Mrs . Todd, and themeeting adjourned.

At any rate, it is always provo-cative to wonder what inter-
esting word variations will be introduced intoone's copy. Recently I read in an Americanuniversity paper that Zane Grey had gone intothe wilds of somewhere-or-other to get thebackground for a new novel—only anothe rvowel was substituted for the 'o' in 'novel 'There's many a slip 'twixt the pen and theprinted product.
As for 'weeks,' if I could believe that even 'a few students delved into Chaucer to discoverits meaning, I would deliberately encouragesuch philological zeal by using other strangebut stimulating words, such as 'ploughing'which I noted in the last issue . Probably, how-ever, the editors would carefully substitutecommon firms for, any such words that wereused intentionally.

The Literary Supplement
"Whenever the Muse visits the University "—then and then only can the sorely harassedliterary editor produce a Literary' Supplemen tto the Ubyssey. But the Muse will not comeuninvited ; she must be invoked and that bymore than a single person . . We have been in-formed on good authority that it requires butthe invitation to bring this honored guestamong us in the near future. In other words,.* Literary Supplement will appear within theno*. few weeks provided that enough suitablemgittirial is forthcoming.
One of the functions of the Ubyssey, as out-lined in the Publications Board Constitution,is to provide students with a medium of ex-preplon. The regular departments of the paperare .always open to contributions from the stu•dent body . The correspondence exists in orderthat students may have an 'opportunity to ex-

Comparatively few people realise the par twhich the Summer session students play in th e
Asgorpiur'ate life of the University . Banded to-gether as the Summer Session Students ' &se-datitns these men and women can in no waybe classed as a liability to the University. . Anacademic record of far better average than tha tshown on the records of the winter sessiontestifies to the type of men and women whowill spend their vacation at this institution .
As concrete evidence of their desire to helpin solving the many problems which confrontthe University, the students of the 12th Sum-mer Session, recently concluded, provided th efunds for one of the new tennis courts whic hmade its appearance during the long vacation .This is the first time that the S.S.S.A. hasfound it possible to make a gift to the Univer-sity, but we are told that the association is evennow considering a present to be made at its'13th session and expects to make the donatio nan annual event .
A closer contact between students of thetwo sessiond is sought by the S .S.S.A. and atits annual banquet representatives of theA.M.S. and the Alumni have been honoure dguests for the past two years . We believe thatsuch , contact would be of material benefit t othe University as a whole and we hope that re-gular students will not be backward in doin ganything which may bring into closer unionthe students of the two sessions .

And we've got it !At the first Pep Meeting of the session, on
Friday last, a real Varsity song was put acrosswith a bang by its author and his whoopee-making band .
The Varsity's last effort in the way of Pe pMeeting rallying-cries was a rather puerile pla-giarism of a movie theme-song—and was dul yreceived with a coldness which really di dcredit to the much-questioned culture of th estudent body .
A moment's perusal of the back pages o fthe Student Handbook will show that there isa dearth of good songs from any source—ou rsupply, as compared with the copious compila-tion of the Toronto Varsity Song-Book, beingpitifully small . Of locally written lays ther eare almost no popular examples,—"Alm aMater" being classed in a somewhat differen tcategory .
"Hail, U. B. C ." shows signs of gaining in-stantaneous and ample popularity . Varsityneeds a good song badly, and Harold King ha sadequately supplied the want .

In 1925, stated Mr, Day, Stalin at -tacked Lenin's new economic policy .and attempted to get rid of the trader sby two methods: the first was exceed -ingly heavy taxation, and the second ,more effective still, banishment .
The actual commencement of th egargantuan plan for the rehabilitationof this vast country was in October ,1927 . Its objects are the industrial -ization of Russia, and the complet eliquidation of profiteers . This wasLenin's idea . The task the Russiansset for themselves was the re-creatlo rof capital resources out of the force sof labor and raw material—it amount -ed virtually to art imposition of war -time conditions on the masses. Con-sumption goods were, practicallyspeaking, rationed, and the energy o fthe country was turned with all pos -sible force upon the output of pro -duction goods. that is, factories, ma -chinery, etc. The original figures,which have been revised from time t otime, for obtaining their objectiv ewere as follows : first year, an increaseof 16,7' :, second year,' 13 .4' , thirdyear 13,s%, fourth year 10 .5% and i nthe final year the percentage increasewas to be the same.

* * *On Tuesday night an audience of unimpres-
sive size, including some students, witnesse dthe presentation of scenes from Shakespeare
at Kitsilano High School Auditorium ,The
under the auspices of the L . S. E .L . S. E .
I did not expect great art, nor uldI witness it; but it was a most enjoy-
able evening. Of the small English company ,two actors took all the Shakespearean roles . 'Leslie Manners as Hamlet, Shylock, Mark An-tony and Petruchio was particularly interest-ing, and played the parts well . In some of theexclamations and remarks he dropped Into or-dinary. conversational tones; otherwise theusual declamatory style prevailed.
These intentional lapses seemed to me ef-fective, and I wondered if declamation could bedispensed with almost entirely in Shakespeare .Some of the plays have been 'modernized,' ' Iknow, as regards fashions and probably in de -livery as well . I do not think that I would likethe plays in modern costume, but less declama-tion might be an improvement . Possibly thePlayers' Club will try a Shakespearean experi-ment sometime .
L. S. E. affairs often suffer from lack o fpatronage . A mere handful, for instance, hear dthe fiery Porto Rican debaters last year . Ad-mission to such events is low, and many thinknothing of spending twice as much, and more ,on talkies, dances and games . Is it possiblethat most students are too stupid to have vol . .untary intellectual, cultural and educationa linterests ?
When the L. S. E. sponsors an entertain-ment, it deserves support . Lack of that sup -port indicates a sad state of affairs and showsthat students are not taking proper advantag eof the privileges and opportunities provided byuniversity life. Lack of that support, indeed ,has implications so serious that the Counci land other executives should feel bound t ograpple with the situation in a vigorous andconstructive way. However, it is as yet tooearly in the year to be unduly pessimistic i nthis regard .

And look what a nice po-sition he did get. .In a church yard!And not even a fashionable church-yard either . Some obscure littlevillage called Steak-Puddingtoa o rsomething. Just a minute, I'll fin dout—the Literary Editor said it wasStoke Poges, and it may be, for allI know.
. ,Let's see, where was I before I in-
terrupted myself? Oh yes, I was tell-ing you about the enormous amountof mail I've been receiving lately,wasn't I? No? Well, I've told younow, haven't I? So there.
It is some time ago'. now that Istarted my correspondence columnin the Muck page. Although it hasseldom, in fact never, been publishedowing to the lack of pesrp--psrsp- -praplc—er—intelligence on the part ofthe Editor, please do not imagine thatthe good work has been dropped! Where is Mr, Butterfield ?Oh, nuarno. Far otherwise, My mail Mn &metlelebag has been so heavy lately that Where is he?with its aid, and a few shovelfuls of surely the plasmcoal pinched from next door, the of this great debun)cerfurnace has been getting along quits And his dignified Mendsnicely . I must tell you about ourfurnace sometime.
However, I have just time to ans-wer a few letter s . The Editor hashied himself away on a voyage tpfar countries. I think he's down inthe Cat„ but I' m not sure.here's a letter from a Fr
"I am in groat trouble about mypet rabbit. It is, in many ways, anexcellent rabbit, but I find that ithas five 1eNc, instead of four. Is thisusual? The extra leg. gets in the waywhen I want to push it into the hutchand the old leg, being in the centre ,causes it to move in a continue cir-cle . What do you advise ?
(Disappointed) ,Arts '35.
You have my sympathy and I canquite understand both your difficultyand your disappointment . I am afraidyou are right and the rabbit iswrong. It is most unusual for aquadruped to have five legs. It isalso very selfish. Many rabbits haveonly two. Are you sure about thefifth? You haven't counted in it' stail, I suppose? I hardly know whatto suggest. Have you tried pushingthe extra leg in? I wouldn't try pull-ing it out . This might have disas-trous consequences . If it had beenan extra tail, you could have decora-ted it up with a bow, but you coul dhardly do that with an extra leg,could you? It is certainly odd—infact, almost indecent . There seemsso little one can suggest. You mighttry boring a hole in the extra legwith a brace and bit . Than you couldhang it up on a hook . This wouldsave the labor of building anotherhutch, I'm not sure that it wouldsleep in that position, but you couldtry.
Then here's another effusion froma member of the Faculty whose nameI shall not reveal.
"I have a set of false teeth—twocomplete dentures—the appearance ofwhich is excellent and all that couldbe desired . However, of late thelower denture is apt to suddenl ystand on end and bite my upper lip .This is inconvenient, not to say em-barrasing . What do you suggest? "
My dear Professor, what do youthink I am? A garage? Really, thi sone gets past my guard completely .Any ordinary request I can generallysometimes deal with, but this one—I hardly know what to say. It is verydifficult .• I think if I was in your plate-er ,
place—I ' d go to a dentist and hav ethem changed . You might try sum-monsing your dentist for assault, bu twhether you could prove he bit yo uwith your own teeth, is somethingI am not prepared to give , my opinio non. Have you tried changing th eplates? It might make the childre nafraid of you, of course . And thenagain, switching the plates mightmake you bite your lower lip, andthen how could you eat your soup?If it was my, personal problem, Ithink I would turn them out into atwo acre field, surrounded withbarbed wire, and drop a brick on
them whe . i they weren' t looking .seems rather cruel ,

WHAT NEXT!Down in San Quentin, California State Prison, the inmates
can enroll as extra-mural students of the University of Cali-fornia. And of the 5000 convicts, over half of them are takin gadvantage of this privilege .
,And they pay no fees. Next fall, if I fail to return toU. B. C., don't think that I have fallen by the wayside and leftcollege for good. Oh no! I'll be down in my private cell in Sa nQuentin with a slide-rule in one hand and a philosophy bookin the other, trying to get something (if a college education i ssomething) for nothing .
It ought to be easy to get board and lodging down there .The best plan, I believe, would be to allow myself to be arrestedfor stealing. If the judge acquitted me, I could shoot him . IfI was acquitted for doing that, I could appeal the case . Even-tually I would find myself in a cell, perhaps a padded cell . Andthen I could get my free college education .
I can only guess what courses are popular this year at Sa nQuentin . I should imagine, since hundreds of the prisoners ar elaboring daily among the rocks, that the class in Geology wouldbe large. Ex-bootleggers, of course, are studying OrganicChemistry; bank bandits are learning Economics and the busi-ness of Banking. Gangsters are probably swotting at GroupPsychology.
Men doomed to die in the electric chair are probably givena chance to enroll in a short course in Mathematics or Physics .After studying Maths, until the date of their execution, the ywould, no doubt, be ready to sit through it all . If they crammedthe essentials of Physics into their heads they would learn al labout electricity and its properties and they could go to thei rdeath with Ohm's Law on their lips . Ed. Note:—How come"Extra-m'tral students? "
ETAOIN AND COLLEGE HUMORThere is a newcomer to the pages of the "Ubyssey" who i s
a stranger to many . I refer to Mr. Zilch, The appearance ofMr Zilch's name on the Muck-a-Muck page will not be toler-ated. However, in this case it is a necessity . We, the disciplesof Shrdlu Etgoin, wish to state our case .
First for the benefit of the Freshmen, I will relate the oft-told legend of Etaoin and his deadly rival, College Humor . Atthe top of this page in the right-hand corner is the smiling fac eof Shrdlu Etaoin, Muse of Muck . On my left, the boy with th epickle fork, is College Humor . Below the title of "Muck-a-Muck" is depicted an unholy battle between 18 (count 'e myourself) of Shrdlu's warriors and 31 devils . The 18 red-skinswith their tomahawks are getting the best of it ; and the forces ofCollege Humor are (as a former Muck writer puts it) "havinga devil of a time fighting Shrdlu, who has been giving themhell ."
Now this Mr. Zilch happens to be an offspring of CollegeHumor. Born and reared between the pages of that periodical ,he comes to us uninvited and expects us to welcome him wit hopen arms .
It can't be done, Mr. Zilch ,

I could see into the dim interior ofthe cavern . Across the room stolethe intrepid pair, each step bringingthem nearer to a shapeless tarpaulin -covered thing that stood in the cor-ner . Emile stooped and lifted up thecorner of the covering.
At this moment the great detectiv ebroke the silence with the words ,"Do you know I've changed myname? "
"No," remarked the unbelievingEmile.
"Sure thing," came the reply,"somebody or other doesn't like it ,so I've decided to change It to SiloRants."
"Good idea" grunted Emile, "I nev-er did like your other name any.how . "
"O. K," said Rants. Let's get onwith our investigation"
At these words Emile oompletidlifting up the corner of the tarpaulin.
There lay row upon row of neatlyslacked Handbooks . Each row beingseparated from the other by somemore Handbooks,
"Ahat" snarled Rants,' "Counterfei-ters, eh? "
No sooner had the words left hislips than a purring voice broke in onthe conversation, !T'm sorry gentle-men, but I must ask you to *lent*your hands."
On the other side of the stick etbooks stood a hooded figure, an Mto •matte pistol grasped in each gloved 'hand. On either side of the antralfigure shadowy forms were

A shivering sigh burst from the lip sof the astounded Chang Suey, for sothe leader proved to be. Raising hishand for silence, and also for exer-cise, he moved forward to speak . Butat that moment I showed the ste mof my (not really mine) pipe ur dcried, "Up with your hands, all ofyou! "
Instantly the hooded leader dis-appeared from our sight. A trap doorin the floor had opened and swol.lowed him up . At that moment thesound of the weird machine we wereseeking came to our ears; From be-neath the floor came the awfulscreaming laughter of a madman.
Emile turned to me and said, "It' sthat infernal crime wave machine ofhis, Oscar. We'll all be murderingeach other in a few seconds, as soonas he can focus the ray on us."

~ . .The True Story of the Origin of the
Frogs in the Lily Pond .by Maybelle McGillicuddy
Once upon a time there was alonely Freshman, so lonely and de-serted by all . Even his fellow class-men shunned him, for after all hisbest friends would not tell him. Itwas the custom of this little boy towander throughout the campus,thinking About We and what hewould do when he grew up. OtherFreshmen could go about havingtheir noses pulled by prominent pro-fessors, or being compulsorily bathe dby philanthropic sophmores, but nothe. He was a thing apart just likethe Science faculty .
He gradually grew bitter, and moreand more homesick. He determinedhe would make iomeone speak tohim. He wended his way to Riding -tea castle thinking in his ignorancethat this was the best place to findstudents and on the way he spied amen approaching. The man wastalking to himself, ' He was talkingabout a woman called Jane.
It was now or never.Our hero stood In the path of the
mat. Re stopped him. He shouted,"Speak to met"
The man threw him in the LilyPond.
The Freshman was not old enoughto swim and so he perished . Hewould have remained in the pondwith the lilies and the lunch papersjust like all freshmen who arethrown in annually. But his casewas different. He was innocent ofcrime and so the bearded god of theCastle took pity on him and changedhint into a frog. But in the trans?formation the Freshman lost every-thing except his color and now hesits spouting his wrath at the world .
But the god of the Caetla .realleedthat the Freshman would be lonelyin the lily pond, so, still being in agenial ' mood, he went to the Cat„picked up the first Freshman he trodon, and, taking him under his arm.carted him over the campus and de-posited him gently but firmly in thesacred pool . He too became a frog.He too remained green. He too spoutshis wrath at all and sundry and hi sfellow-frog in particular. And therethey are and will remain until th enext Arts-Science battle demolishesthe ornaments in the Lily Pond .

They managedto get over in time to Join the squadon Saturday before they left for Al-berni . Apparently the team misse dthese two men in the Friday nightgame .
The first game with Nanaimo wasa thriller. Varsity opened the scoringand were leading 8 .0 halfway throughthe pitied, but could not hold themine boys to this score. The locallads wiped out this lead and thescore was even at half-time. In thesecond half the locals, who were inbetter condition than the collegeteam, ran in enough baskets to hol doff a U. B. C. rally near the end ofthe game . The miners used a zone de-fense system throughout, as opposedto a mat-to-man defense used by thestudents. Lorne Falconer, hustlingmanager of the students, had,. to playin this game owing to the absence o fChapman and Campbell . The Island -dens sent word back to sign him o nthe squad . Bob Osborne, lankyyoung guard and the most promisin gdefense man in B . C. topped the Var-sity scoring and was ' the individualstar of the game along with Cyclon eLee and L. Nicholson. Little BobbyMcDonald played a great game forhis initial senior start. Eddie Arm-strong sprained his ankle during th egame. This was a sad blow to theVarsity 'hopes, as Eddie Is a star per-former . and knows where the basketit located .
The team for this game was : Os•borne (8) . Lee (4), Armstrong (2) ,Nicholson (2), McDonald and Fal-coner .
