The plan at the present time is to broadcast campus news, events, and feature items of interest to students. The programmes would he televised from the University studio, to be shown in monitors that will be set up in the Student Lounge. In discussing the proposed project with Pat \Vesley, psychology lecturer and at present one of the main actors on the closed network, mention was made of the only other campus in Canada using television facilities for non-educa• tional purposes, Scarborough College. Mr. Wesley said that the difference between their _programmes and the ones which will be run here is not so much in the material used but in the fact that the Administration runs their show.

But he says that he has learned more here through practical experience than he learned in the training he got in England.

He returned to Canada in August, and is 11resently with the National Ballet Company.) The Civil War in China is a myth. While I was in China, I saw no evidence of that kind of widespread conflict. The views that you in the west get of acµvities in China from western press is distorted beyond recognition. While in China, I had several clippings sent to me from friends in the west. We all had a good laugh. RED GUARDS PRO-MAO The papers talked about pro-Mao and anti· Mao factions in the ranks of the Red Guards. There are no anti-Mao factions. The con· flicts were simply over procedure to be followed in the cultural revolution. Another misconception was that works of art had been destroyed. I saw no case where this occurred. In the early days of the cultural revolution when the fervor was high, some Red Guards entered the summer palace apd painted over some gaudy, cheap decorations from-the Ching dynasty. They used white paint that was easily removed, and no permanent damage was done. Most of my students were Red Guards. Schools have been closed for the last year, allowing students to travel around their , country. This has been found to be very educa· tional. It allows students to get a first-hand look at their country, its needs, and its potential, and to take an active part in solving its problems. The students also work in fields for two weeks during the harvest. This is another thing about which there is a good deal of misconception in the west. The field work is strictly volunteer. Only those in good physical condition are allowed to go. In fact, I saw students Vl;ho were judged physically unfit, crying. There is a great deal of enthusiasm among these young people for the cultural revolution as a whole.

Ukrainian Club In a meeting last Thursday, the members of the Lakehead University Ukrainian Club decided to put to the test the newly granted authority for students personally to present their case to the Senate. The issue is one which has been smouldering since last September, and concerns the cancellation of the language course Ukrainian 0a6. The courses have been successful for the last three years and the Club was surprised that Ukrainian 0a6 was left off the registration booklets in the fall. The Club, feeling that this was simply another registration error, tried to remedy the situation. A letter of inquiry as well as a seven page brief were submitted to the University Committee in October. It was the answer to this brief that was rejected as unsatisfactory by L.U.U.C.'s membership Thursday. The Educational Committee is now preparing further material on this Senate presentation. • L.U.U.C.'s "150 GALLONS OF GAS" draw is going into full swing. Tickets are being sold for 50 cents, the profits going to assist in sending delegates to the national convention of University Ukrainian Clubs, being held in Montreal in December.

The film itself, called "Political Dynamite,'' was a satire on politics today and was well worth while. Secondly, the Liberals on campus have already begun their campaign for the Model Parliament, to be held this year in Januacy. A Shadow cabinet has been formed. The members are Brian Springgay (P.M.), Fred Porter (Foreign Affairs), Bob Gregor (Northern Affairs), Bert Baumann (Canadian Affairs), Ron Kowalchuk (Labor Relations), Jeanett.e Gall \.(Secretary of State), Keith Gamich (Health and Welfare). Finally, three members from the University were sent to London, Ontario, to attend the Ontario Student Liberal convention h~ld there on November 24 and 25. The three members were Fred Porter, Ron Kowalchuk, and Paul Vetorazzo. Fred Porter chaired one of the seminars held on Saturday, that being on land acquisition and control. Other policy areas which were included are Regional Government, Municipal Party Politics, Transportation, a n d Housing. In all, it has been a very busy month for us.

In this issue Playboy has ~cided to play funny games with the female body - in various positions girls' bodies are painted up to resemble pollticai leaders like De Gaulle, Castro, Hitler, and Mao. Accompanying each picture Is •a little limmerlck. 'lbe magazine has played this sort of cute- game before; a year ago female bodies were dressed and painted to look like animals: for example, one girl, bent over, had a horse's tail stuck to her arse. . This Is obiJCene and perve~ not in the sexual sense, but in the human sense, for the purpose ls to reduce a fellow human being to the status of a mere object to be used in any fashion :whatever to satisfy one's pleasure. Such objectification Is of course the very basis of the Pl11yboy philosophy - when Hugh Hefner talks about sexual freedom what he really means ls the unfettered freedom of the male to use and exploit the totally submissive female. The Playboy ethic reduces all women to the position of commodl ties, bought and sold on the market ~ any other commodity. Bti"t Playboy is not the problem, merely one manifestation of it. For the objectification of the · female is a prevalent aspect of our entire social life. Often a girl ls not an individual human being, but a mere package containing a desired product: that precious hole between her legs. And the packaging has to conform to the demands of the market: the right hairdo, the right clothes, and the right opinions. Not that the girl ls only a piece of arse, far from it. She, depending on the situation, n.ay functlon .In ·a variety of roles. Like a toy, she can be played with to provide entertainment. Like a car, she can be a status symbol - if she conforms to the current definlUon of what status ls. Like Mount Everest, she can be conquered in the supreme proof of one's manhood. Or, like a soothing drug she cal"I be an escape from the troubles of the real •w orld - the world only men are concerned with. What unifies these various functions . of the female ls that she must be prepared to play the role - whatever rQle ls demanded of her. And these roles do not follow from her own personality, her own humanity as an Jndlvidual, but from the socially defined needs of the male. Thus when many 1 girls come into a new relationship they quickly learn what hairdo the boy likes to see them wear, what clothes, and what kind of a smile. And they learn to wipe their minds as a fresh blackboard on which the boy's opinions will be inscribed MATE .for the duration of the relationship. A new relationship, a new set of opinions. Thus it happens that most serious discussions of politics and society are carried on by males, while the females are relegated to the role of th~ audience. The occasional girl who challenges this state of affairs is considered a masculine bitch whose opinions are not to be taken seriously. On many levels of their .eslstence girls have to prostitute themselves, to sell themselves and their human beingness for a price. The price Is the security of being accepted by the male on the male's terms. The unfortunate bags on East Hastings who must peddle their body nightly for a few meager dollars are only the most blatant example of the Pl'C)ltltution of the female in our society. For after an, they too are looking for security - and money is the only security they know. They are the ones who couldn't sell themselves to any one particular male. Although some rebel, many girls accept this role of the object, for through numerous doctrines, rewards, and punishments society prepares them fc,r this very role. They are told, for example, that man's sexual role 14 aggressive while woman's is submissive, and that from this fact - which is presented as being an inherent characteristic of human nature-follows woman's inferior position In all other fields. Or that woman's natural concern is the home and perhaps llie arts, but that the important issues of society are the exclusive preserve of men. Good looks .are rewarded with attention from the males; being ignored is the pun~shment of being judged ugly. An ugly girl friend, you see, is much more embarrassing than any other ugly object or.f? may possess. But it must not be thought that girls are the only victims of this object-mentality. The males pay the price in the many hang-ups, sexual and otherwise, which result from this reduction of women , to objects. In a society which measures success by one's ability to acquire objects, tnen begin to doubt their own manhood, their own worlh as human beings if they have somehow failed to acquire all the necessary objects of success - and woman is the prize object. Thus the ideal man is a James Bond whose capability to acquire women is infinite. Thus if Pliyboy plays gross games with the female body, it ls no more obscene and perverse than the society which reduces women to the status of objects and roles. What Playboy does with its women is only what many humanly perverted individuals in this society would like to do themselves. And a society which regards as its very basis the acquiring of more and more objects to the point where this amassment of object-wealth becomes more important than human life and human dignity, such a society cannot help but produce humanly perverted and hung-up indl'riduals.

Therefore, you might call this the Christmas issue. And if it is, then there should be a Christmas message in it. This is supposed to be that message. Religiously speaking, Christmas is a day of significance. Perhaps it tends to ht; a dogmatic significance, but nevertheless significant. The Man was different. He was a humanist in a time of inhumanity. So this is significant too. There is only one catch. If what is. celebrated is so important to humanity, why is it possible to put together the montage on this page And why bother celebrating humanity's gain at all, when it means nothing humanistically to so many? Just a small catch perhaps, but again a significant one. And a fleeting one. We don't think of it on that day. You won't either, probably. So why bother? -cg.

Sir: Have North Americans gone mad? Why do 240 million people sit back and allow their government to commit genocide in Vietnam? Can a new refrigerator and a higher standard of living he allow€d to cause the deaths of two million Vietnamese, the immolation of women and chldren, and a potential murderous attack on China (whose greatest crime seems to be a general success of its system of government)? How can over 20 million people sit at home, and watch a television report of the .murder of peasant farmers, the destruction of their homes, the torture and death of their wives and children in the name of democracy and freedom? Cannot a people who revolted against their rulers in the past, allow a few Vietnamese to attempt to better their lot without sending in the hugest, most destructive military machine of history to "help" them to choose "our way"? What does it take for North Americans to become sane? Must millions of Americans be killed and mutilated in the streets of Detroit and Toronto? Must we ourselves see death a n d destruction riding towards our children? In my mind at least the cost of our new mauve refrigerators, our "labour saving" gadgets, and our four meals a day is too high when it demands the lives of innocents 4,000 miles away. I cannot, like many of my fellow N o T t h Am~ricans, commit the crime of passive silence in the face of madness. Sincerely, P. O'Neill.

The ARGUS com· plains that its budget has been cut, yet fills a quarter page with naive, anarchronistic, unabridged propaganda ... free. First off, the Circle K Club is clearly unconstitutional in this university. . It limits its membership to the male sex. I wouldn't want to suggest that they're a bunch of fags, but one wonders what other fantasies they have in addition to the ones revealed in the article. Secondly, their quaint juxtaposition of ideas: "the clubs objects are to emphasize the advantages of the American and Canadian way of life . . . it gives primacy to the human and spiritual rather than the material values of life.'' Hypocri~y is no stranger to the university, but it shouldn't be encouraged. Ideas of that sort haven't been taken seriously ( by anyone who does his homework) for at least forty years. Finally, the club smells suspiciously like a timid approximation of those absurd institutions called fraternities which are quickly, and thankfully, disappearing from the university scene. Let the boys build their tree houses, and play with their Captain Marvel Secret Code Rings, but don't promote their myths as news. I suppose the university must humour even the misdirected, but shouldn't advertising be bought and paid for by Daddy Kiwanis: 9r maybe even H. L. Hunt? Sincerely, S. G. F. �December 7, '1967 THE ARGUS Page 5 Summer School Society recognized Don Colbome Back to the question: What is a universitJ? It ·is clear that what we call a university (good old L.U.) was not divined by The A.lmighty. On the contrary, it was just sort of shuffled in; and there are many who regret. being involved in such an unfortunate accident. Most writers have said that if there is anything basic and distinctive of all universities, it is that they all (a) have a location where (b) one group can learn from another group. Since there is so much variance, no one has chosen to generalize any further. Even these prereq:.iisites, however, can be easily demolished in light of where we are at now. Firstly, universities no longer need a location. People are mobile, and the communication media are becoming very sophis-ticated. Just as the necessity for residential universities has declined, so could the necessity for centralizing the 'plant." It is important .to the bureaucracy, not the learning process, that the university is now a clump of buildings which are locked up every night. It could just as easily be a large television studio where facts are canned, and broadcast to students in their homes. The students could then hop into subsidized cars and gather at subsidized pubs to discuss the data they have learned, and its relevance to what is happening. That idea mav be unlikelv, and I certainly do not subscribe to it, but the fact that it and ·a hundred other models are technically feasible, and educationally valid, points up that the university we have today does not necessarily make sense; it just happens to exist. The constitution of the Summer School Society was accepted by Council at its last meeting. However, theia: request for voting powers on Council was not passed. They now hold only a speaking position, the same as CUS, the ARGUS, a n d the Chief Justice. "Finally, after a lengthy delay, Summer School Society has been recognized as a body of the AMS," said President Richard Bozynski. "It is only unfortunate that this group of students does not seem important enough to warrant a vote on Council." "From this date on the Summer School .Society will be able to voice opinions of the summer students," he added. Tentative plans have already been laid for an orientation for the summer students, and activities throughout the summer are in the planning stage. One of the main projects undertaken by the Summer School Society executive is the preparation of a newsletter, to be sent to all those who have registered here for summer term. There will be about three of these s~nt out before the s~mer, .the ·first coming at Christmas. Of the 600 students taking courses last summer, the major portion were school teachers furthering . t he i -r education, and full time students taking concentrated progu.-ammes.

In the good old days when students were little more than literate farm hands, they had much to learn, and little to offer their omnicient professors. To.. day, the kid who has watched a lot of good television, and reads his paper every day (because he has had time for such "diversions") often knows much more about what is going on in the world than his professor, one who might be a narrow academic, blinded by his discipline. The incident concerning the Sociology Prof. here at Lakehead, who did not know what a Bar Mitxvah was until his students told him, is a prime example. · (So mebby hiss nut vun uff are pipple, but that he should know, ·arreddy.) I suppose the poor gentleman simply had not taken a course in Jewish Sociology and, being a good student, he had been careful not to learn anything that was not in his courses. Clearly, as Neil, Rodgers, Goodman, and many other writers point out, the teacher and student cannot be members of distinct groups. idea patching is insufficient Again, the old ideas are out of date. The university does not need a location, and it does not need separate groups; one of sycophants, and the other exercising an outrageous "in loco parentis." But these, we have been told, are the very fom1dations for previous thinking on what a university. is. Implied in the recent irrelevance of these basic ideas is that the entire superstructure of exams, credits, degrees, lectures, etc., etc., is probably hopelessly anarchronistic. Perhaps the most telling criticism of the "liberals," who are willing to see moderate and controlled change of the university, is that they want merely to patch the walls and ceiling, while the floor is crumbling into the cellar. Their attitude is thaL of the "enlightened" slaveholder who gave his "nigrahs" more food and comfort, but used th<!t as a rationale for defending the institution of slavery. The entire idea of what the university should be can now be re-evaluated, and should be, if it is to serve the needs of people who are going to live in a very revolutionary world.

T h o s e conditions would be that the mother's physical health would be gros~ly impaired; and I would suggest that it is ~p to a health medical board together with a social worker to decide when an abortion is necessary. I think there are many conditions, where the child would suffer because it is unwanted ( young teenage girls and mental deficient, who become pregnant). However I do not believe for >ne moment that an abortion should be left up to the individual alone. Where a child is going to be deformed, either mentally or physically, then abortion should be possible. Where pregnancy is the result of •rape, abortion should also be possible. To lessen the need for abortion, a wider possible dissemination or birth control knowledge should be instituted. There is the constant cry throughout North America. for Justice! (Often referred to, by various uninformed souls as "Lady Justice.") Surely it is a miscarriage of justice for the state to force a woman to bear an unwanted child. The argument has been presented that a mother-to--be is in no position, emotionally or biologically, to judge whether a child should be brought into this world. Nonsense! The same argument was used in the l 900's to deny females the vote. Women of the world unite! The matter should be decided by a plebiscite for all women of child bearing age, not by celibate priests, wizzened old spinsters, frustrated mothers past the menopause or anxious boyfriends. Clenn Leckie no personal decision Five of the six people interviewed were in favour of the liberalization of the abortion laws, with some stipulations; the opposition to liberalization being based on moral principles, as opposed to a realistic stand taken by the other five. If this scant sampling is any indication of current thinking trends, perhaps we can speculate and say that the days of the present abortion regulations are numbered. -Khalid Ali. __. prevention more valuable I am in favour of removing socio-economic barriers to abortions and liberalizing present abortion laws. Present Canadian laws on abortion reflect the general standard of our society. By that I mean hypocrisy seems. to be a generally accepted practice. Women, who are well endowed financially can, of course, obtain an abortion. Also many progressive medical institutions have the medical staff to perform abortions. These practices are of course illegal. What we need is a policy which would allow a pregnant woman, regardless of her social or economic background, to have a legal abortion if her physical or mental health were endangered. Further to that, if it is definitely determined that the unborn child is malformed, or conceived through ra_pe, an abortion should also be performed. The decision whether or not a woman should have an abortion should be decided by at least two medical doctors. What must be stressed above all is prevention. The "pill" should be made available to those who require and desire birth control. This would eliminate the need for numerous abortions. • The legalization of abortion, then, must be accompanied by the legalization and universal accessibility of con-4 traceptives. We allow back-alley abortionists to kill and prosper, while progressive medical institutions have their hands tied and live in fear whenever they perform an illegal abortion to save a woman's life. Dr. Diggins, M. D. strict control Bert Baumann Yes, I think abortion should be legalized. At present in Canada, Therapeutic Abortion Committees function in hospitals as consultative bodies in the interest of women whose lives are endangered by pregnancy. If those physicians come to the conclusion that abortion may be performed to preserve the life of the mother, the law is violated. Because of changing socioeconomic conditions and values, and an increasing influence of a political nature rather than influence of the churches as in the past, the abortion issue has become more of a. social one. In an American survey called the 1965 National Fertility Study done on "a representative sample" of 5,600 women, 91 % of U.S. wives declared themselves in favour of abortion under "certain circumstances." Britain, by bringing in sweeping reforms in the abortion laws, has- again taken a leadership r o I. e, instigating changes which, I believe, we, as in the past, will eventually incorporate into our legal code. Some decisions must be made in national interests, and I think legalized abortion is one of them. However, the decision then must remain with the individual's own moral code of conduct. Within the restrictions of the present law in Canada, there is essentially no decision the individual can make, except to continue with the pregnancy, whatever the costs. I believe that existing legislation dealing with abortion should be liberalized, to include cases of pregnancy following rape, and some serious socio-economic indications presently being decided in government. Overly liberalizing the legislation would promote promiscuity. Thus, definite legislation is required in order to keep this matter under strict medical control. Jean risher, B. Sc. N., R. N. �December 7, ·1967 ·Page 8 TtiE ARGUS B7 BERT HILL Violence is the common How important is Violence as a force in understanding man and his society? Many people have considered violence as a positive element not just a tactic in struggling for a new society. A recent report suggests that violence expressed through wars and war spending ls integral to the maintenance- of stability in American society. George Sorel. a revolution·ary French syndicalist praised violence by the working class. He believed that the ethic of the revolutiopary spirit would •bring about social change. This spirit was much more important than beautiful utop. fan pt"ctures •of a future socialist society in bringing the workers to action. He believed that the bourgeoisie was a cowardly class that would only cave In before the superlQr ethics of the working class denominator of society as expressed through their violence. ENSLAVED Frantz Fanon has argued that violence is 1be onl apy that will free the blacks of their colo tality.

Their leaders and councillors met often to discuss these difficulties, but progress was slow; and the people were troubled in their hearts. Then one day a gallant knight rode into the town, and set himself on high in the market-place, and began broadcasting in a terrible voice: "Lo, I am come to tell you of the cause of all your difficulties, and, though seeking no honour for myself, modestly offer mv services." A crowd gathered, and some of the councillors, too, listened, albeit surreptitiously. A fair and simple maiden, who appeared to be in her late forties, asked shyly: "And who might vou be, Sir Knight?" "I am called, though I know not why, the Nut Brown Knight. And I have travelled in many lands, and many things have been revealed to me, which are known unto few. I know of your difficulties; and I am come to tell you that they are caused by a certayne Fierce and Invisible Dragon, which worketh unseen amongst you." A Councillor stepped forward. "Sir Knight, we know of no Dragon. Our problems are more in the wav of unemployment, inflation, race tensions, fear of war . . . " With only a trace of irritation, the Knight rejoined: "This seerneth. And in spite of this vicious personal attack and criticism, I will go on." He went on. "In truth, as I said before, all your troubles are caused by the aforesaid Real and Present Dragon. Who if not he hath Suborn'd your Youth, sown Dissention amongst your \Vorkers, sicklied o'er with the Pink Cast of Thought your Intellectuals, and riled up your Coloured, who are as little Children?" The assembled began to look uneasily at each other, and to cough and shuffle their feet. At length one of them said: "Sir Knight, how may we protect ourselves from this, ah, Invisible Menance?" "Funny you should ask me that; for as it happens, I know. You must seek out one amongst you who is Wholly Pure, and pay him, say, 18,000 silver dinars a year, and send him to do Battle with this Dragon." The citizens and councillors looked glum. Not only because of the 18,000 silver dinars, but because each of them suspected that he himself was not Wholly Pure, and each knew full well none of the others was either. Finally one of the Citizens had a brilliant idea: "Sir Knight, well wot we (unconsciously falling into the idiom) to he ourselves all unworthy of the task. But it seemeth that perhaps thou . . . ? who did in fact first become aware of this Menace, and who seemeth seemlv and Pure?" "You say it so beautifully", said the Knight. "what can I say? I am deeply moved by your confidence in me. I shall labour a twelvemonth and a day, or more if need be . . . " "Hold on now just a dam minute," rudely interjected a Second Councillor. ''I'm not at all sure there even IS a dragon. Maybe we'd all just better get back to work, and try to solve bur problems as we did in the past . . ." Then Sir Knight waxed dread grievous pigued, and his ~yes Hashed, and his stomach rumbled, and he pro<;laimed: Be~old: the _very proof of what I say. Here is this Mangy Traitor, even m your very midst. Who but a Stooge and a Subversive would attempt to Discredit Me and my Cause? I ask you, did I promote myself? Was it not you yourselves who suggested, nay obliged, me to take up this Holy Cause? I ask you, in all Humility I ask it, could anyone who opposes Me be hut a Spy, ready to report our every plan to the Invisible Enemy?" "Nay!" roared the Councillors in a body, and rolling agendas • into clubs, drove the dissident Councillor from their midst. Which just goes to show that a Council Agenda is not entirely useless. Then the citizens lifted the Knight onto their shoulders, and bare him towards the Council Chambers where the Silver Dinars were kept, and one young man, who happened to have his gittern with him, composed on the spot a charming ballad in honour of the occasion : THE BALLAD OF THE NUT BROWN KNIGHT The Nut Brown Knight rode up one day, the Counsellors were woode wrothe; "Here's another vagrant come to sup From the meare Municipal broth." "O say not so.' said the Nut Brown Knight, As he quaffed a temperate flagon, "Wit you well, I've come, in my Harness Bright For to slay the Invisible Dragon.'' Then he buckled his buckler, to keep the blood Off his ·dacron--and-samite shirt, And it's off he goes to the jousting field, And the Dragon kisses the dirt. And who will gainsay that the joust was just? Or who will gainsay the Knight's fee? For sooth to say, the Invisible Dragon Never agayne we'll see. And the young children skipped along beside, and the old virgins gaily flaunted their petticoats, and the strong men proudly bore their champion along. the factory torn earth, red brick anthill of automatons that scurry and worry and run for fun he sure that it's done for monday we now have all the answers "Praises raise to Punch Card Gods" we are indeed in their image what fools were men to think there coulc I know and yet I cannot stop the pounding doubts inside my brain. the essential human being is not captured in an mound of punch card trifles. perhaps his relevancy still is a voice, a kiss, a scent of rose. �Page 10 December THE ARGUS 7, ·1967 spiders and things Within the concrete confines of a seminar room at Simon Fraser University, there dwelt a beautiful spider. He was an exceedingly handsome specimen-such a pretty shade of dull black. One day, as I was contemplating the intricacies of Philosophical Thought, my professor who occupied the chair immediately beside mine, said unto me: "Behold! There on the floor- a spider. I shall crush him into the linoleum!" Much taken aback, I said unto him: "Hold fast; harm him not. Do you not understand that this small spider is one of Nature's very Masterpieces Can you not realize that to destroy this creature would be to upset want .>nly Nature's delicate balance " I was great. It was my finest hour. Greatly humbled, my professor pondered my words of infinite wisdom. In a profound tone, he then said unto me some words which I never forgot. He said: "Horse manure!"

Their leaders and councillors met often to discuss these difficulties, but progress was slow; and the people were troubled in their hearts. Then one day a gallant knight rode into the town, and set himself on high in the market-place, and began broadcasting in a terrible voice: "Lo. I am come to tell you of the cause of all your difficulties, and, though seeking no honour for myself, modestly offer mv services." A crowd gathered, and some of the councillors, too, listened, albeit surreptitiously. A fair and simple maiden, who appeared to be in her Jate forties, asked shyly: "And who might vou be, Sir Knight?" "I am called, though I know not why, the Nut Brown Knight. And I have travelled in many lands, and many things have been revealed to me, which are known unto few. I know of your difficulties; and I am come to tell you that they are caused by a certayne Fierce and Invisible Dragon, which worketh unseen amongst you." A Councillor stepped forward. "Sir Knight, we know of no Dragon. Our problems are more in the wav of unemployment, inffation, race tensions, fear of war . . ." With only a trace _of irritation, the Knight rejoined: "This seemetb. And in spite of this vicious personal attack and criticism, I will go on." He went on. "In truth, as I said before, all your troubles are caused by the aforesaid Real and Present Dragon.

Throughout the ages, ever since man became fascin• ated with the power of thP printed word, there have beer those who took joy in the possession of books. To obtain a rare volume, they have travelled thousands of .miles, to bid a king's ransom when the book of their choice came under the auctioneer's hammer. To understand their zeal and dedication, we must take a closer look at the history and mystique of books: With the invention of the printing press, our civilization entered an era of enlightenment: now that knowledge could be shared, the superstitions and myths of the Middle Ages were soon dispelled, and in their place there gre:w an awareness of the glories of the past. The writings of Greek and Roman scholars were translated into the vernacular; the words of the ancient philosophers could now be understood by an eager throng of young thinkers who applied them to their own time and circumstance. They read voraciously anything they could lay their hands on. Books were expensive, and any student who actually owned one counted himself most fortunate. The fiirst university libraries came into being, and those universities who boasted the most extensive libraries became the most prestigious ones, -for here one could gather the knowledge not only of the learned men who taught there, but also of the great minds of the past. Gradually the ownership of books came within the reach of the individual scholar. Publishing became a business, and some of the earliest of all publishing firms still exist until this day. Heavy, leather-bound volumes rolled off these early prnting presses: theiy were made to last, for the price of in hardcover every yearr, only to be superseded by a paperback edition immediately after. Thousands of copies of the hardcover editions remain unsold in the publishers' warehouses, and are disposed of for a fraction of their original selling price to laJTge discounthouses, which in turn offer them for sale at one-quarter to one-half of their original price, and often even less. Devoted bibliophiles, such as the writer, make it their business to know and patronize these discount-houses, taking advantage of their sales and special offers. There is a very great satisfaction in obtaining a book one has always wanted to own, brand new, at less than halfprice. I a.m betting that in a university community such as our own, there are many others who love books, and who would like to own the works published in their field of interest, rather than just borrow them for a week or so; who are interested in building up a personal library, not only of paperbacks, but with a core of quality hardcover books to provide lifetime reading pleasure. To these bibliophiles, these fellow-bookworms, I extend a most cordial invitation to visit the 13ookstore, to browse among the disdiscount-books on sale, to pore over the catalogues, and suggest other sale-books to be purchased for this very special department, for bibliophiles only. To those whose interests lie in other fields, this is not a sales-pitch. If you are not interested in books, the most tempting array of discounted volumes will not make a bookworm out of you. This is a promotion of the love for, and interest in good books, not an attempt to increase sales-volume. Booklovers are our raison detre, whether they spend much or little, and we invite their patronage and suggestions. • winter The sky is purple, • lake er1e manners • " .~., - ~ My arse is too Inside this bloody bus. ~ The broken men squat on docks of rotten pilings Spitting into the harbours murky depths Recalling the days of whitefish and bountiful herring Of drunken paydays Of sturdy fishtugs flogged by autumn gales Of rope-burned hands and storm-claimed nets.

The concert series will present four concerts by the widely - acclaimed Canadian Festival Quartet and a special concert by Canada's internationally - recognized soprano, Lois Marshall, accompanied by a chamber orchestra under the direction of Boris Brott. The Festival Quartet will open the series this Sunday. Lakehead University Music Director Boris Brott, in making the announcement today, said the title "Intimacy'' was an appropriate description of the concert series. "Intimacy is the natural name for an all-embracing evening of inti.mate participation "in music," he said. "Low lights, a soft arm chair and your very own quartet almost at arms length . . . what could be more inspiring!"

I think this was badly misunderstood in the west. There is very little bitterness towards other nationalities among the Chinese. They believe that 95 percent of the American people are basically good, but have been misguided and exploited by a corrui>!._ leadership. They are much more conscious of bourgeous versus proletariate divisions in humanity than of national ones. The standard of living in China is also much better than the western press po~ays it to be, at least with regard to basics. Mroicine is very modem, at least as far advanced as the west in many fields. And there is a hospital attached to every factory. The infant mortality rate is very low. No one has died of malnutrition for more than three years. SUPPORT HANOI GOVERNMENT The Chinese position on Vietnam is that they will send volunteers whenever they are asked for. Chou en Lai has said that if the Americans invade the northern part of Viet- cont'd from p. 1 nam, the Chinese will recognize no borders. In connection with the Vietnam issue, it is interesting to note that the Hanoi government .officially denied charges made by Moscow that China tampered with war materials being shipped to Vietnam. Tbe Sino-Soviet dispute is definitely serious. The Chinese regard revisionism as a more dangerous enemy than imperialism, because imperialists are open, out and out enemies, while the revisionists pose as revolutionaries. The Chinese feel that the Russians have betrayed the revolution. The Chinese are quite receptive toward Canadians. The first thing they asked me when they found out that I was Canadian was "Do you know Dr. Bethune?" He was a man loved throuJ?}iout China. The Chinese view of the Canooian economic position in the world is that we are an economic colony of the U.S.A., and as such are incapable of taking a meaningful position on international issues.

It seems that no matter what sort of article one reads these days there is always some measurement dealing with acceleration as some aspect of the article. The acceleration does not have to be stated. It is almost impossible to speak about changes in acceleration if the change which is taking place cannot be measured against the experience of the past. Hardly anyone today in any position in the hierarchy will take time to discuss the future with you unless he feels .it will improve his foresight. Just consider experience-its value and its limitations. EXPERIENCE A PREMIUM The value of experience is at a premium nowadays for a simple reason: there is less of it, all over North America. In Canada over one-half of the population is under 30 years of age while in the United States one-half of the population is under 27 years of age. In consideration of this fact, there are very few people who I know and I would bet that you know who have been through the 1st. World Wax. But I would say that many of us have heard our parents talk about the lean 30's. What a person learns over the years through experience gets impregnated into him; at best it enters the innermost parts of his being. It becomes part of his personality and he begins to know instinctively how to act and what to decide in circumstances with which he becomes familiar. Once someone developes inner convictions it takes a mighty force to change his ways. SOME ,CONFUSED BY OTHERS By contrast, those who depend on other people's experience f o r their convictions, on some political or economic problem in which they are not directly involved, may well find that their views are confused by the conflicting testimony of experts, or influenced hopefully for the better - by tomorrow's editorial. I would like to take this a bit further and say that most· young people here are influenced by what is said by teachers. This is due to the fact that we are so subjected to theoretical hypo,thesis that we tend to have ' unrealistic conceptions of what fs happening. At best we become sheep to individuals. It takes very little persuasion by polished orators to change people's minds. ST ABILITY FROM EXPERilENCE The inner convictions of an experienced man acting in_ his sphere of competence endows him with stability, and stability makes him reilable. People know where he stands. There are times when I feel few people know where they stand. And if they do, they do not commit themselves. Because a person knows where he stands he is able to think quickly and react to situations in an optimal way. He in fact can think back and feel back to i::imilar situations which endow him with the abilty to project forward. Consider yourself: there is at least some ti.me in your life when some things you have done in the past have influenced a future decision. VARIETY IMPORTENT The value of experience is not so valuable in its length as in its variety. In management, thirty years of experience does not count for much if it merely means ten times three of the same kind of experience. What makei,:; experience such an asset is the exposure to a variety of greatly differing situations. This is one reason why large enterprises move prom• ising people around; to various plants, offices or divisions, and often to different parts of far flung countries. So when you are employed by a firm do not consider your transfers a hinderance. Rather consider them an asset to your mobility and increasing spheire of experience. MUST BE CONCRETE YJ'hen one uses his experience he should be sure that the world around him is the same as the world from which he drew his experiences. Man on the moon, once the subject of Jules Verne, is now no longer a .matter of "whether," but a matter of "when." Products, techniques, methods of doing b u s i n e s s, communication, transportation all change at a rapid rate. Looking f r o m modem dormitories on our campuses to imposing lecture halls and laboratories, never forget that we young adults today are expected to assimilate in the span of a few years to a vastly expanded body of scientific knowledge. 1930's ADULTS DISAPPOINTING My reason for voicing this fact is my disappointment and frustration towards the "lean thirties" adults' attitudes, saying that all we do is leach and have a good ti.me. We must crowd and crowd our lives each year with more and more of the experience they give us, yet by their standards we are entitled to loosen up. Anything we do which does not conform to their conservatism is regarded as some: thing for criticism. One is re~inded that the School For Scandal had nothing on some exaggerations of our activities 1 e g e n d a r y by adults. It is our responsibility in the very near future to infuse organizations with new ideas and to adjust, improve and evolve approaches to a changing environment without losing the gain from beneficial things learned in the past. A scholar is not one who just has a brilliant future. Education is no longer a terminal process, it is a life long necessity. It is an neverending thing as business is well aware when it sends personnel to seminars or university management schools to maintain their capabilities not only up to contemporary needs but also hopefully to get into the van of events. you will gain more satisfaction in any particular preoccupation. Besides, you will develop within yourself a pattern which will more greatly enhance your experience and foresight, both necessary ingredients for a better future. IlNSIGHT THE LINK When talking about foresight, a connecting link is necessrury. That connecting link is insight. From experience insight may be gained and insight makes it possible to foresee, with varying degrees of certainty, the way the future will develop. Not everyone is able to look ahead and make accurate predictions of what will take place in the future. However one can develop foresight through experience and through training. Foresight depends upon understanding and people can be taught by experience or by education to understand things. For onP. to understand things it is sometimes useful after reading specific articles, not to act on these items but instead to let the material sift around within you. Usually elements of the article which you read will sort themselves into an orderly fashion and become .more meaningful. By bringing some thoughtout order into what you do, Simon says ....

The adoption of these resolutions on the part of Council makes them part of the policy of the AMS in general. Lakehead is perhaps the only post-secondary institution in this country capable of putting this particular resolution into effect immediately. This university is still young enough, small enough, and flexible enough to be able to act with a minimum of disruption within its own community. Even Lakehead does not have much time, for there are obvious signs that it too is slipping into the ever-deepening pit that Canadian universities have dug for themselves. President Tamblyn has left the door ajar with his comments on the "community of scholars". And with the adoption of this resolution the students have placed their foot in that door. Together perhaps we coul4 see Lakehead leading the way in university education if we only show that we are interested and concerned. "Learning must therefore be a process of self-enhancements . . ." Hurray for that! They should have added that in that process a student learns not only because he wants to learn, but learns what he wants to learn. General education should stop with High School Graduation, if it should last that long. There is no valid reason for a Math major being forced into a language course or an English major being forced to take a science course. Based on the present three year fifteen credit system, this could mean that a student entering university would have all courses open to him. A History major for example might be expected to take a certain number of history courses with freedom of choice in the remaining courses. The resolution speaks of " 'motavation' by coercion". Items such as examinations and term tests have become the reason for learning rather than a means of judging what learning has taken place. It should be obvious to everyone by now that examinations are irrelevent to a student's knowledge. A mark of 60% does not mean that 60 % of the course was mastered, but rather 60 % of that particular exam. An examiner bases his test on what he feels is most important. Whether or not his students place the same value on these points is given little consideration. Yet the right to remain at m1iversity depends on this value. In practise, this resolution would mean the end of the formal lecture system. Impromtu lectures, such as Mr. Anderson's on the Detroit problem, would and should continue. In that particular case, no credits, but a great deal of learning was the result. The professor would become a "resource person". With his students he would define the direction and content of the course. Students would be free to read, research, experiment and discover on their own, meeting with the professor to discuss problems or points of contention whenever necessary. Under this system, the true value of a professor would become obvious within a short time. However, under this system a professor could be certain that he was in fact contributin~ t.o the education of an individual, and that presumably is why they are here. By accepting the resolution, Council has placed us on the road which can lead us to becoming a true community of scholars. Our President wants this, the Council wants this, and many of the faculty want it. If we are ever to achieve it then we must show our support now. The road is there; all we have to do is follow it. -photo - drew Bookstore Committee Notes Christmas is made University students buying crested clothing from Perciante & Laprade or Stitt's, can redeem ten percent of their purchase price in the form of Bookstore merchandise. An itemized receipt must be presented to the Bookstore for students to take advantage of this offer. Text book markup was discussed at the Bookstore Committee's meeting. Markup is 20% on all merchandise except soft cover books selling for less than $3. These books are sold at the suggested retail price. This mark-up system results in a saving to students of from 5% to 30% on their Bookstore purchases, depending on the discount granted the store by the publisher or manufacturer. for Candles THE ORIGINAL DANSK DESIGNS CANDLE SPRAY $5.95 the treasure house 7 S.

The previously unheralded Rumanians turned m a n y heads last year when they won the "B'·' division in the world championships. They have been elevated to the "A" division, ·to play against such competition as Canada and Russia this year and, as a preliminary to the world championships in F r a n c e, they will tour Canada during the month of December. Th e Canadian Amateur Hockey association awarded the game to Lakehead University on the basis of their fine record last year a n d their growing reputation as one of the up-and-coming names in Canadian university hockey circles. The Nor' Westers won the International Collegiate Hockey association title last year against United States competition and have just been accepted into the Nationa· Intercollegiate Athletic association, the first Canadian university to be so recognized. Their experience in college rules, similar to international rules, will hold them in good stead against the touring Rumanians. A fast, positional team in the mold of the Russian or Czech style, the Rumanians have .made great strides in the past few years. They are rated above both the Eastern German and Japanese teams which have drawn excellent crowds at Fort William •Gardens in recent years. Coach H e n r y Akervall feels his Nor'Westers will provide stiff competition against the touring Rumanians. "I expect they will be a young, fast team and that's just the type of competition we are accustomed to playing," he said. "Conditioning and positional play is the secret for the European teams and we'll have to use the proven formula of forechecking them before they get their pattern plays working. That means skating, skating and more skating. The problem, according to Akervall, is getting the ice practice time at the Port Arthur Arena. The Arena is booked solidly 18 hours a day. The Nor'Westers practice times are limited to two outings a week at noon hour, 12 -1:30 p.m. Akervall said the poor condition of the N or'Westers was the major reason for their double loss in the opening games of the season against Lake Superior State College at Sault Ste. Marie. T h e touring Rumanian National Hockey team will face what will probably be the toughest four days of their Canadian tour, when they hit the heart of hockey country, the Manitoba-Thtlllder Bay area. Previous to their Wednesday, Dec. 13th game against Lakehead University Nor'Westers, the Rumanians will meet the Canadian Nationals, Sunday, in Winnipeg and the Brandon Juniors, Tuesday, in Brandon. The full itinerary of the Rumanian tour was released recently by Canadian Amateur Hockey association officials. It shows an 11-game schedule in 19 days highlighted by the game .in Winnipeg against the Nationals. The tour begins in St. John's Newfoundland on Dec. 1 ending on Dec. 19 in a yet undecided eastern Ontario site. CAHA officials are just completing plans for that final game. From St. John's they move on to Moncton, N.B.; Drummondville, Quebec; Shawville, Ontario; Winnipeg, Brandon; the Lakehead; Hull-Ottawa and Sault Ste. Marie. The University student's cheering section will be led by the pert cheerleaders who have been a highlight of all university sporting events. Tickets are now on sale for the international event.

Ball By Arne Anzen The 1967 Lakehead University Women's Basketball team is off to a start - if a rather slow one. The team lost two games against the Teacher's (a team composed of the local women physical education instructors). In the first game, they lost by a score of 29 to 16 with Glennis Holmes and Judy Perlin scoring 8 and 4 points respectively. The second game, a much closer contest, resulted in a 30 to 26 loss with Linda Thomas scoring 7 points, Judy Perlin and Maritta Riekstins scoring 16 points apiece. Coach Bill Shannon describei; this year's team as better than those in the previous years. The only thing the team lacks is ex• perience. The team has eleven members. Five members, Maritta Reikstins, Linda Thomas, Susan Savage, Linda Martin and Judy Perlin are veterans returning to the team. The other members are Gail Crowhurst, G 1 e n y s Holmes, Penny Horn, Nina Quinn, Marcia Graham, and C}lris Jaremko.

In both games the N or'Westers found Bemidji's overwhelming height too much of a disadvantage. Bemidji only out rebounded L. U. by four in the first game, but increased the margin Sunday. Saturday, Don Holmstrom scored 24 points for the Nor'Westers while Jim Johnston added nine. For the sharp-shooting Bemidji Lumberjacks, centre man Isle scored 17, while Sutton netted 16. In the first game, Amie Anzew took two shots for L.U.. Sunaay, the N or'Westers ran out to a half time lead of 35-25, but could not hold the strong rebounding and good shooting Lumberjacks in the second half. Don Holmstrom again led the way with 23 points ,while rookie guard Roy Holman hooped 17. Mjelde led the way for Bemidji scoring 30, 19 in the second half. Isle added 16 two and Sinzheimer got 15. The Noo-'Westers did a fine job against such a tall team. Jim Johnston and Lou Pero rebounded excellently against those Paul Bunyans. They were so big it was said that Cooch looked like a little boy lost in a forest, standing there amidst the green-uniformed Lumberjacks. A good crowd was on hand for both games.

The final score was 10 - 9 for the Bears. With less than three minutes to play and a first and ten situation on the Bear 15 yard line dilrectly in front of the goal posts, quarterback Dick Waring opted to pass - right into the hands Don Holmstrom, I think, is worthy of the athlete of the week award again.

To me, the Olympics, the summit of amateur sport, have been soured in the past few years. This is because there are no real amateur sports left in the world. World officials have always tried to screw the top nation in a sport. For example, Canada has been taking it in the ear in international hockey, after dominating the scene for several years. Canada has been sending some of its best reborn amateurs (semi or minor pro players) to play in a modified game so we can't even use our aggressive play. In the meantime Russia -sends its best amateur team (really a top pro team) to play by rules that favour them. We're wasting money supporting a national team. So too has the U.S. basketball team been harassed by prejudiced international basketball rules. But they still continue to win. To my way of thinking it shouldn't matter if one country dominates one Olympic sport because ( with the exceptions of maybe Russia and the U.S.) that will probably be the only sport which that country will dominate. And it will have to compete against other countries in the other sports. We don't need the Olympics or guys like Bunny Aheame. The U.S. has enough international sports image so that it could hold its own world basketball championship under its own rules. Canada could even hold a world hockey tournament under Canadian rules and send invitations to the hockey countries of the world. Some of the good ones would come; some might not. But those that didn't come would make an appearance eventually to keep up their image in the sport. The Olympics are dead. They are only held for the fantasy of world politicians who claim it is one place where peace among nations can be shown. "There's no prejudice or jealousy at all." Oh yes there is. Canada complains because Czech referees favour the Russians in a top hockey game. The Olympic committee knows it is wrong, and there is prejudice, so they create a trophy, give it to Father Bauer and the Canadians become great sportsmen. Nice guys finish last! Father Bauer gets a trophy, Canada gets 10 brownie points for being good sports. Russia wins the game and the whole world is at peace. John Wilson. The McMaster march started on the Bear Seems Cliff Stewart humoured his teammates and Coach Akervall last weekend. Akervall had just blasted his team for only getting one shot on net. Cliff started for the ice in the second period and tried to encourage the rest of his teammates with his own pep talk, "C'mon you guys, let's go out there and get another shot on goal." ,,. . Fact or fantasy? YOU COULD WIN A NEW ANGLIA IN DECEMBER! GIBSON MOTt)RS (1962) Ll~IITED Intercity Dial 344·7235 �Page 20 December 7, 1967 THE ARGUS Blood donor In spite of heated protests from the Foresters, the results of last week's Blood Donor Clinic indicate that the healthiest, most spirted, unapathetic, and willing to helt> group on campus is not the Foresters, but the Nursing Degree students. This group of prospective pill-pushers turned up 62 percent strong to give blood, and 100 percent strong to help the Red Cross workers from Winnipeg in making the Clinic a success. But the Foresters can feel somewhat compensated by the fact that the girls bettered their 58 percent by a slight margin of 4 percent. Engineering c a m e next with 33 percent, thanks to the insisting assistance of one red-haired female engineer, who "helped" many of them into the Great Hall. The Student Nurses took advantage of their one day on campus to call out 26 percent of their numbers. Science and Arts made rather disappointing efforts, with 23.1 percent ·and 22.9 percent support respectvely. Business Administration was lower with 21 percent, and Library Tech, a group that clinic successful should have been near the top, owing to their small number, made use of only 19 percent of their potential. Faculty and Administration (plus staff) both deserve a good •swift kick for their disinterest. Seven percent and five percent turnouts respectively put them both at the bottom of the list. Although t h e response from the University itself, f r o m Lakehead Teachers' College, and Confederation College was not as high as expected, the cause was helped considerably by 356 high school donors. The 860 pint total is substantial enough to deem this year's Clinic a success, and to merit another in the future. A thank-you to all those who helped out, either by working in the Clinic or by giving blood, is very much in order. Not only have you helped bolster a common project of the University, but you have also done something directly in aid of another person's well-being.
