PEAK INCORPORATES From January 17 to February 16 there will be an exhibition in the senior lounge of paintings by the German anist Kathe Kollwitz. The exhibition, from the Winnipeg Gallery, consists of 20 original etchings and lithographs, and illustrates the artist's concern with people and truth. She expresses tremendous sympathy with the poor and the suffering. and thus the drawings are sensitive and moving. No student serious in his interest in the arts should miss this exhibition. BURNABY (CUP)--The Peak, student newspaper at Simon Fraser University, became the first Canadian campus newspaper to receive legal recognition when it was incorporated recently as a society. The new society must publish annually, and submit complete financial records, and a comprehensive report al society affairs io tbe gistrar of societies. The Peak can also be sued under the Societies Act of British Columbia. Bob Campbell, the local Canadian Union of Students chairman has submitted his resignation to the A.M.S. He explained in a letter read at the last regular meeting that acadmeic pressure had forced him to make the decision and expressed his regrets to council. The A.M.S. executive, in consultation with Mr. Campbell will appoint a successor as Chairman of the local CUS committee. Campbell will be suggesting Gwen S and Barb Coghlan who have volunteered to take over the position jointly. Mr. Campbell has had no word as to how the honoraria which accompanies the position will be divided between himself and his successor. In an interview with the ARGUS Mr. Campbell outlined the responsibilities of the position for the information of other students who might be interestedinapplying for the job. He pointed out that CUS was a new thing at Lakehead as this university joined only in 1966 and that in his months as He further stated that· in its first year CUS has been fairly successful in terms of increased student awareness of just what the organization is and what it is doing for the Canadian student. He feels that the provincial and national offices have been very interested and satisfied with the pregress here. On the question of the union's troubles on the national level Mr. Campbell believes personally that the organization should have stayed out of politics and disagrees, at least in part, with many of the stands which his headquarters has taken. W1th reference to the upcoming Ontario regional conference to be held here Bob said only that he had offered to help. MODEL PARLIAMENT This year the political clubs on campus are cooperating in holding the first Model Parliament on the Lakehead campus. In order to achieve success these groups are now opening ~ publicity c~paign. t.o ac(luam~ ....,..._ _,,..,....- •..• r --1illia•1D111mn:a with me Parliament. concentrated on four pro- jects which must be further dealt with by succeeding committees.

NOW IN SECOND PLACEBY PETER YOUNG The Lakehead University Nor'Westers were dropped into second place in the International Collegiate Hockey Association last weekend as first place Bemidji State Beavers handed them 5-3 and 6-5 defeats. Nor'Wester coach Henry Ackervall still feels the L.U. team is superior to the Arthur will have an effect on the outcome of the return matches in the Lakehead. At Bemidji the ice surface is outside and visiting teams find it ,h ard to adjust to the wind, sun, snow and temperature conditions. In the first encounter the Nor'Westers were outshot 34-27 and took four of the five penalties. The score was tied 2-2 after one period and the Beavers held a 3-2 edge after two. Dennis Olinik, Dwight Surrett, and Murray Smith were the Lakehead marksmen. Olinik scored on a pass from John Stefiszyn, Surrett connected from portant of these has been that of coordinating the student discount campaign which has been partially successful to this time. The new chairman will have to actively publicize this campaign among both the students and local merchants. Mr.CamPbell had also been working on a program of high schbol visitations where students and faculty would visit secondary schools carrying the good word about university life. He had also been promoting plans for student exchanges whereby students enrolled here would take a year at another university which would in turn send one of its students to Lakehead. The CUS nationalprogramof student travel is also coordinated by the campus office. Smith and Dave Siciliano and Smith rounded out scoring from Lorne Gander. Nor'Westers held a 4-1 edge going into the final period in game number two but the Beavers 'p umped home five third period goals. Murray Smith notched the first two L.U. goals, the first unassisted and the second on a pass by Aggie Siciliano. Siciliano scored the third goal with Clare Battiston and Stirrett drawing assists. Stirrett completed scoring with the final two markers. Stirrett' s linemates Smith and Siciliano collected assists on the first, with Siciliano and Battiston aiding the second. The Nor'Westers travel to St. Cloud this weekend in hopes of breaking the second place tie with Wisconsin. Wisconsin moved into the tie with two victories last weekend over St. Cloud. Tbe Model ParHament will be held on February- 17, 18, and 19. The week following the Winter Carnival has been set aside for campaigning and all indications predict that the campaign will be one of intense activity with no political punches held. The elections will take place on February 3. The two major political clubs on campus, the University Liberals and the N.D. Y. have been assured of A.M.S. sponsorship and support for the Model Parliament. It is therefore hoped that the student body will actively support the Parliament by attending the political speeches and debates during the campaign week; and, of utmost importance--casting a ballot on the election data. Both the Liberals and N.D.Y. express the wish that the Conservative students on campus will accept the challenge and present a number of candidates to stand in the election. At the same time, those students interested in seating as a Liberal or N.D.P. member in the Parliament are encouraged to contact: Liberal-Bryan Springgay 622-2673 (or Argus office) N.D. Y.-Don Colborne Argus office The political parties request full student participation to make Lakehea.d' s first Model Parliament a success and provide a basis for future parliaments on campus. The political groups can set up and hold the Parliament; its first success is in the hands of the university students. SPRING SPORTS SCHEDULE The athletic department has released the schedule for both intercollegiate and intramural events for the spring term. This weekend the hockey team is in St. Cloud for two games against the Huskies. Meanwhile the University is hosting an invitational ski meet at Loch Lomond. Brandon College will be travelling to the Lakehead for hockey and basketball doubleheaders on January 28 to end the Winter Carnival. The first multiple event weekend comes February the third and fourth when St. Cloud State Huskies travel to the campus for two hockey games.

' :::: :::: . . ........................................ .::;; US d (full In the recent ARG rea er po11 results of which will be published next week), a number (about half a dozen) of tho§e polled complained tpat the ll!ternational affairs column is too biast (sic), or 'NDP orientated'. I feel that it is necessary to make perlectly clear my position. A university newspaper, published weeldy or bi-weekly, cannot print international news. In this regard, all it could do would be to publish that which can be found in the daily press; such repetition would be purposeless. Instead, in the matter of international affairs, a university paper can present 'backgrounders' and information having more than just immediate relevance. The articles, therefore, fall into two main categories--historical and commentative--both of which are open to interpretation according to the political beliefs of the writer. My articles, such as they be, express that which I personally believe to be th~ most correct interpretations of current situations and events leading up to them. They are personal opinions, and nothing else, and shall contin ue to be such. :~'.:'.:'.:'.:'.:'.:'.:'.:'.:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•.•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•.•·········•...•.•·············•.-.•.•·····························~············•·-.• If any student disagree with the interpretations I give, I should be only too pleased to print his Views if they be submitted in written form. ~:l :l: :l: l Your Weekly Rag If you have read last week's issue of the Argus, the first of the new year, you probably realize that your newspaper is now a full member of Canadian Universities Press. And now you are probably asking yourself . . . So what? Well luckily for you Mr. and Miss (or Mrs.) Superapathetic Argus reader, because we are a full member, we have decided that you are g(?ing to receive the Argus, not twice a month, but once a week. Yes, once a week. And of course, we will have double the amount of the usual biased, NOP-orientated, objective articlea you bave - - - ~ -stated in our scientifically operated Poll you enjoy most about our little rag. • Yes, now that we are a full member of CUP, we will try harder to please you. 'This tabloid will attempt to soar towards new horizons' (gag) Yes, we will even endeavour to cover more University news, like the Circle K's receiving of two $20 flags, while playing down unimportant trivia such as Vietnam and the Indian Problem. But now that we are a weekly newspaper, it is imperative that we receive more help from you, the student. We have had some trouble publishing the semi-monthly. Now our headaches are doubly compounded. We just need more staff. (preferably les jeunes femmes) You don't have to pay dues in order to join. In fact, for the remainder of this term, by means of a special agreement, you will be able to enter the newspaper ranks, free of charge. Yes Virginia, free of charge. If you are worried about (your) marks, don't. Every staffer of the pre-Christmas Argus, passed the majority of his exams. (basket-weaving, golf, broomball, psychology) And the social life of the Argus is tremendous. Where else can you spend a whole Friday night doing lay-out, and coming baclc Saturday morning for more. Letter to the Edttor Dear Sirs: Concerning your article on Fred Flange, I regret to inform you that the mascot as drawn in the Dec. 9 issue of ARGUS is definitely and irrevocably not Fred Flange. The statue from which this drawing was taken is called ZIG ZAKOWITZ and the pieture was so labelled. Because of last year's Carnival, Fred Flange is now regarded as the Forester's Mascot; so why should all faculties be forced to accept him as their mascot. ZIG ZAKOWITZ is a newl name that I think would be readily accepted by everyone. Those who created ZIG ZAKOWITZ know that he has a definite identity. But some narrow-minded, unfeeling and conservative regressives considered it better to distort his identity. If the cartoon won with the name ZIG ZAKOWITZ on it, let it remain so. Mike Zroback Investigating the charges made in this letter, the Argus learned that the character had been submitted as 'Zig Zakowitz' but the Winter Carnival Committee insisted that the character be named 'Fred Flange', as this had been the name of the mascot for the previous Winter Carnival. The Chairman of the Carnival Committee, Julie Wierzbicki, stated that when the committee advertised for entries in the mascot competition, it had already been decided that the winner should be named 'Fred Flange'. This was not stated on the advertisements for the competitions, however. The official winner, Wayne Aitken, did not object to the re-naming of the mascot. ALICE IN INDONESIA Fifteen months ago, in September/ October 1965, the world was invited to believe that a coup had beenplannedagainst the Indonesian Government headed by Presiden Soekarno. The cout> failed, and in consequence, a reign of terror was • introduced which can only be compared to Nazi genocide methods. Hundreds ofthousandsof patritotic Indonesians, labelled as Communists, and of Indonesian citizens of Chinese extraction were murdered in cold blood. The crowning climax of this vile campaign was a trial against Dr. Subandrio, former Foreign Minister, a trial which also has a Nazi parallel--the phoney Re- ichstag trial. Subandrio told the court he had received a letter alleging that the British and Americans, together with their Army friends, were planning something against Indonesia. Dr. Subandrio said the letter was written by Sir Andrew Gilchrist, a former British ambassador. It was against this conspiracy that the army colonels waged their unsuccessful coup on September 30. Another spate of reports now implicates President Soekarno in the attempt to protect his own government against the army coup. More and more pressue is bein§ put on President Soekarno to 'explain or rather denounce the actions of the colonels of September 30 which were very likely inspired by himself to protect his own government. The Alice-in-Wonderland situation then exists where a million people have been slaughtered under the pretext of having attempted the revolutionary overthrow of President Soekarno when in fact the murderers conspired successfully to overthrow him. Similarly typical of the upside-down situation is the detention of Malayan and Indonesian fighters of the official 'Crush Malaysia' campaign. First called in by the official Indonesian Soekarno Government to give their lives for this particular lost cause, they are now being detained for trial by the successor government which • condemns everything Soekarno did as criminal and nominally condemned former loyal Government supporters for attacking that self-same government. The trial of Dr. Subandrio--who was sentenced to death--was but one of many put on trial by the Fascist government now controlling Indonesia. Most of those on trial are ~wns in the game of 'Kill the Communist • It says little for those governments of the West which decry 'Viet Cong atrocities' that they protested little or not at all the massacre of a million Indonesians. Or perhaps it is an illustration of the widely-held belief that a man should cease to be regarded a human being when he becomes a Communist. BROWNED OFF By JOHN BROWN Few experiences can approximate that of standing at a wind-blown bus stop in -40 F weather. As time passes into January and February, when the north-west is a place where nothing moves unless it has to, fewer buses pass the cold stops, and fewer reach the University. Bus service to Lakehead U is, at this moment, very bad. The Port Arthur Transit people say that most students come to school in cars, and that it is uneconomical to run buses out after 5:00 pm. Ideally, the buses run on schedule at 6:15, 6:45, 7:45, 8:15, 8:45, 9:45, 10:45, 11:45, and 12:45 from St. Paul Street in Port Arthur. In the afternoon they leave St. Paul Street at 4:00 and 4:45. I have yet to catch a bus at its appointed arrival time. One week ago I caught the bus at St. Paul Street at 8:45 am, and was handed a pink transfer slip. We were all abandoned at McBean Street, where we stood with our pink transfer slips and blue fingers waiting for another bus to take us to the University. We arrived a little frost-bitten, but at least we got there. Unfortunately this was not the case some time ago, when I boarded a bus at 12:45 and protesting, I was dumped at McBean Street. I have been afraid to even attempt to take buses facing the prospect of having to walk the extra 3/4 to 1 mile with a 60 m.p.h. wind screaming over the cemetary, and freezing solid any area of my person that I had not covered with enough padding to keep the average wolverine warm. I am now investigating the possibility of renting trunk spaee with the car pool groups, as a preferable alternative to purchasing a dog sled (what with the high cost of dog food). The possibility of a large group of people attending classes at 6:30 and 7:00 a.m. and necessitating bus sertjce at these times is slight. The only people who do make these trips are personnel. Since the school is not open to students until 7:45 no student would make a bus trip out at this time unless he intended to study in a snow bank. The rest of the bus trips, on paper, are convenient to anyone who has a class in the morning or early afternoon, andfrom experience I can attest that they are not empty. This leaves the student with classes before 4:00 and after 1:00 on any day at a disadvantage unless he wishes to devote three hours here. This also means that any student must conclude his day's activities before 5:00 p.m., It occurs to me that I was mistaken in assuming that the wild look in the eyes of many of our students was a thwarted desire to take part in student activities, frustrated because they must catch the 5:00 p.m. bus. I have written this at the request of some of the people in residence, who, displaying blue frozen feetandfingers, have sent up a passionate plea in the hopes of rectifying this situation. At present they are forced to hitch-hike, breaking the laws of Port Arthur. Must these people break the law or freeze their appendages to enjoy a small evening out? Fon William is about as easy to get to as Toronto, though the latter is preferable. The average residence student would spend nearly two hours on the trip back and forth to Fort William. The Fort William Transit authorities assure . us that the buses are Port Arthur's problem, as the University is in Port Arthur. Fort William's loss is no-one's gain. A word of hope to all University students. A proposed dog-train taxi has been organized to downtown Port Arthur and Fort William by one of our future financiers with energy to spare. Return fare is one can of dog food. Bring your own bearskin blanket. I I I I �PAGE THREE Carnival opens tonight after months of preparation. There are many different events P,_lanned and everyone will find something to enjoy in Carnival Week. All Carnival events except the meals and the Ball require only a Carnival button and an I.D. card for admission. Buttons have been on sale in the cafeteria and will be available at the door tonight. I.D.'s must be presented when purchasing buttons. For a full-time student or first-year student nurse, the button price is 75 cents. For all faculty members, staff or part- time students the price is $1.00. After tonight, all buttons will be sold at $1.00, and only during the day.

THE I.AST WORDS·· HERE JAN. 20 WOODCHOPPER'S BAlf As usual, when Winter Carnival time rolls around, those Artsies and Science test-tube students ask what the Foresters are doing for Winter Carnival. Well, as the trend seems to indicate--highe,st aggregate total in the last two years--Forestry again is aiming for the. top. In the same vein as last year, Forestry has another prank. Would you believe chopping five cords of wood into fire-place. size. This feat will be accomplished by the combined efforts of the Forestry students in ~~~rea~ ::;ar~~o~~ i~rto~rJ3~: station in front of It has been proposed that half of this five cords be sold to the Residence at a nominal fee of a guided tour through those 'NO ADMITTANCE' signs and the other half be given to the person who estimates the finishing time. On the serious side again, Mr. Jordan of the famous Jordan Wines has donated two of his best brands to act as guards to prevent vandalism--they will be disguised as bottles. Starting the Winter Carnival off with a big BANG will be the Forestry Dance tonight (January 20). The fabulous 'Last Words' from hog city of Toronto will be knocking out the music. If you want to pick up an unusual 'souvenir' come to the dance tonight. • So, come one, come all and have a ball or two and : if you don't know how, take a girl who knows how. • I !'

U. Nor•westers and Bemidji State College for the first year championships. The Nor'westers proved a lot of things in their openil}g games against Wisconsin State University with two convincing wins. Murray , Smith. Dave Siciliano, Dwight Stirrett and Claire Battiston particularily showed well in that first series. Battiston for one played the best series I•ve witnessed since the days when he excelled in Junior hockey. And it was shades of midget days for Murray Smith as he continually walked by. through, around and over all Yellowjacket opposition. But Aggie was the real team work horse that weekend, and defenseman Lorne Gander was not far behind. Siciliano, time and time again led effective rushes into Yellow Jacket territory. Despite a broken nose, John Kennedy seemed to be always in the right place at the right time and his centre John Stefiszyn could find him every time he was. John Fallis, though, was the man who impressed the local spons writers a_nd sports casters. There were not many Yellow Jackets who stood in his way when he came barrellinp, down the centre. Of course, would you? Well Jimmy Mahammid' Pronger seems to be taking over the teams bad boy position. Keep it up Jim. Every team has to have a policeman. It's easy to see that the loss to the team of Lome Everett, Kule Bishop, -Rick Lampshire, Vic Hendricken and Lawrence Baxter could effect the superiority of the team. But John Kennedy and Kieth Prignitz should take up some of the slack. . We've also acquired a new addition to fit between the goal pipes. He's first year Artsman Allan Johnson who is certainly no stranger to the campus. I would say that if we can tighten up our goaltending, nothing is going to stop the Nor'westers this year. SCHOLARSHIPS AND A BOWL GAME by Larry Hebert It looks as if athletic scholarships may be a reality in Canadian universities by 'September, 1967. Mr. Ivor Wynne of McMaster University and president of the Canadian Inter-collegiate Athletic Union will head a committee which will study the adoption of athletic scholarships. Simon Fraser University is the only institution in Canada -.!hich gives athletic scholarsnips but it is not a member of the C.I.A.U. Western Canadian Universities seem to be taking the lead as far as scholarships go, since several schools in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia have players on hockey teams which are ATTENTION · SCIENCE ANO ENGINEERING STUDENTS Structural Materials For Model Building, such as structural Shapes-Angles-Tee BeamsChannels - Columns - Beams and Stripwood - From 1/16 to Y2 inches; all in 24 inch lengths.

ZJ; 1967 THE ARGUS SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS BY PRO-TEM As I see it. the ostensible physical requirements of a university are a site, buildings. an administration, a faculty. and lastly a student body. It is with the quality of the latter at Lakehead that I am presently concerned. Since I am an habitue of the Crest, I have rid myself of any possible labelling as an abstainer. I have also attended a larger and more established university, and felt no qualms about wholeheartedly supporting its teams with a rousing cheer. Imagine my horror therefore. while sitting in the cafeteria on Friday, Jan. 6, when my intelligence, and the intelligence-of every one of you was assailed with that heart-rending line, 'Gooba, gooba. gooba' from cheer no. 12 on the Lakehead University Hit Parade. In addition, the assumption inherent in each cheer was that students attended university with the sole purpose of drinking. I have a confession to make. As the seventeen year old forester quoted in the poll on alcohol consumption as drinking to 'keep the economy going', you will appreciate the fact that I can drink with the best of them . While I personally have nothing against our cheer-leaders. (how could any forester dislike a girl in a skirt ~t short?) I must confess the motives they attribute to my attendance at university are far from accurate. Ideally. a group of cheers is selected as a means of voicing the approval and aspirations a student body feels for its teams. I would appreciate ,haVing someone point out to me how this can be realized when our cheerleaders raise their voices in unison to shout 'more beer'. Surely there are one or two people in this university capable of producing a cheer which is more to the point than those now in use. I appeal to you, pick up your pen and write.

Claude Smith, when questioned by ARGUS reporters on the fact that outlets in parking lot B (faculty and students) were conducting electricity only 30 minutes on every hour, answered that such was the case. but that nothing could be done • as existing equipment would be overtaxed to supply more electricity. Mr. Smith said that since the parking lot was only a temporary one, one which would not be operational in 5 years, it would be a questionable expenditure to add the extra $7,000 - $10,000of equipment required to make the plug-ins operational on a full-time basis. The students were not the only ones involved, said Mr. Smith, as parking lot B was also allocated to faculty and persoMel.

When questioned on the case of payments, Mr. Smith advocated a system whereby all persons employing plug-ins would have to pay.

AMS COUNOL RECONSIDERS ORCUS IS OUT I After reconsideration by the Alma Mater Society it has been decided that Lakehead University will not host the Ontario Regional Canadian Union of Students conference on campus at the end of Feb. The original vote, passed at the Jan. 9 meeting of council, was reversed by councillors whose chief complaint was that the maximwn amount of financ1al aid required to host the conference, $3,000, was beyond the council's budget. Mr. Hider, AMS treasurer, proposed the motion to rescind the Jan. 9 motion; his motion was passed with ten councillors voting in favour and four opposed. Those voting in favour of Mr. Hider's motion maintained that $3,000 was an unreasonable amount of money for any student government to provide for a conference, particularly in view of the recent resignation of Lakehead's own CUS chairman. Mr. Jordan swnmarized his support of the motion proposed by Mr. Hi- der by citing Lakehead' slack of a CUS chairman, the fact that the conference would be held five weeks before final exams, and his opinion that the student body of Lakehead would not be interested in such a conference. Strongly worded support was also given to Mr. Hider's motion by such councillors as Mr. Thompson, who said, 'Why should our students pay for ,someone else's joy-ride?' and Mr. Penner, who expressed the opinion that, 'In actual fact we have been blackmailed; we have in effect been told that we couldn't host this conference unless we raised $3,000.' The point was also raised by councillors in favour of the motion that it was unlikely that the ORCUS con'ference would generate any enthusiasm on this campus, in Mr. Thompson's words, •will our participation be that good here? It never has been, what reason do we have to think that it will pick up?' Mr. Tocher! spoke at length in opposition to rescinding the motion of Jan. 9. He feft that for the benefit of the student body as a whole sending delegates to conferences at other universities was inadequate as an alternative to hosting such a conference ourselves. Mr. Tocher! granted that previously Lakehead University would have been ill-equipped to attempt such a conference, but he now believes thatattitudes such as that of Mr. Hider, 'doubt the students' capacity to accept the challenge.' He also expressed concern for the lack of leadership evinced on the University campus and &aid that he had expected the conference would spark some sort of interest in campus politics. Mr. Tocher! felt that there was no question now of the intellectual capacity of our students, and by voting in favour of M:1:. Hider's motion councillors would only be harming themselves and the students they represent. He went on to add, 'If you can, after this con- ference, if it is held here at Lakehead, stand up a year from now, or two years from now, I question that council then as to where their interest came. I'm sure, right now I'm sure, because of the members that are on this council, that there will be students on that council that will have ~artaken in this conference. Other members of the Alma Mater Society were also present at the council meeting, and expressed a variety of opinions. Mr. Hess, past president of the AMS council, felt that Lakehead would be getting 'a poor return on the money', and that he would far rather see students on our campus involved in conferences at other universities. Mr. Sigfried, another individual not a member of council, spoke in support of Mr. Tocher!. Mr. Sigfried said that if only 50 students at Lakehead benefitted from the conference it would be worthwhile. He felt that since the council was only lacking one member at the meeting, and since there were also 20-25 non-council members present, this indicated a definite interest in whether or not Lakehead hosted the ORCUS conference. After further debate a vote was taken and the motion was passed. ORCUS, when contacted, expressed· disappointment in the change of plan. The President, Mr. Hugh Armstrong, felt that it was an unfortunate situation and although he had looked forward to attendingtheconference at Lakehead, he realized that 'This wouldn't be possible without the subsidy.' On the other hand, Mr. Armstrong said that he could sympathize with the council in that a large sum of money was required to host the conference. He further stated his belief that 'Mr. Tocher! had made a valiant effort.' In concluding, Mr. Armstrong mentioned that he would proceed to contact the two other universities which had offered their facilities before Lakehead committed itself. �PAGE 2 ARGUS INTEBNADONilAffAIIIS THE ARGUS WHY NOT VON THADDEN?

AEd. MOST STUPID DECISION Of necessity (3:30 A.M.), this editorial is regrettably short. ORCUS will not come to Lakehead University. In an act of unbelievable irresponsibility, Council members have reversed a previous vote in favour of holding the ORCUS convention here on February 24-26. The main reasons for refusal seem to be that the conference would be a needless waste of money. ($3,000, although a surplus of $6,000 remained from last year's budget), and it would present an impossible workload for members (although some members suggested that they would be willing to host a national CUS conference). Other members stated that $3,000 was a sum too large to spend, in order that Lakehead University could be proud of organizing such an important event. Now, councillors, we have only one question. How much will it cost. to regain face, and to terminate the scorn of other ORCUS members? HORROR SHOWS OPEN CARNIVAL The first weekend of Winter Carnival 1967 may go down in L.U. history as the rankest on record. The Woodchopper's Ball on Friday evening, for those of us (including the writer) who cannot remember, is reported to have been an awesome scene. The ARGUS chained a reporter to a tree deep in the bush under the supervision of the local termperance Leaguefor 72 hours preceding the dance to assure an objective report.

I shall confine the rest (This article might well have been written under the heading of 'national affairs•. but as the subject has international ramification,. it was decided to place it under 'iatemational affairs•.) Recently the CBC invited Adolf von Thadden, the leader of the West German National Democratic Party (NPD), to Canada to appear on the programme 'Sunday'. As soon as news of the invitation was made public, there was a wave of protest from individuals and organizations which consider the NPD to be neo-Nazi, or at best neoFascist. Chief among the protesters were the National Jewish Congress and the diplomatic representatives in Canada of the (West) German Federal Republic. So great. indeed, was the protest, that the CBC withdrew the invitation to von Thadden. 'Sunday', however, determined to present him, senta crew to Germany to obtain the desired interview. Now there are reports that a student group at a university in British Columbia is arranging to bring von Thadden to address students. The Department oflmmigrationis reported to be investigating. The foregoing raises two vital questions: Is the NPD in actualfact a manifestation of the renascence of Nazi thought in Germany? And even if it be so, is this reason enough to attempt to preventhisappearanceontheCBC? The first question is very complex -- far too complex to be even attempted in th~ of my comments, therefore. to the second question: If, assuming the worst, the NPD is really a party dedicated to the promulgation of Nazi doctrine, does the CBC have the right to pay - presumably with public funds - for the leaderofsuchapartytocometo Canada? It is my opinion that any political (and any other kind of) view should be able to be aired over publicly-owned communications media. Surely it is a negation of democratic principles to deny anyone the right of free speech on the grounds that his statements might be offensive to a number ,.. no matter how great - of people. For, let•s face it, no one can be sure what von Thadden is going to say. What kind of standard is it which prevents someone from making a public statement because he might advocate a doctrine which opposes freedom of speech? I fail to see why von Thadden should be prevented from haVing his say. I do not believe that the CBC isseriouslyafraidthatCanadians will en masse espouse the Nazi cause if von Thadden were to make Nazi-ite statements, and indeed, were he to make such statements, he might awaken many people to the dangers of a resurgence of Nazism in Germany. The whole question is extremely complicated, compounded by intense emotional issues. However, I believe that theCBC'sdecision not to bring von Thadden to Canada was a wrong one. NATIONAL AFFAIRS Leftish Polttical Sunival BRYAN SPRINGGAY The left (progressive) wing of the Liberal Party can heave a sigh of relief - Walter Gordon is back in the cabinet. Gordon's return guarantees the survival of the left wing of the Liberal Party in the face of a growing conservatism in Liberal policy and leadership. In order for a political party to survive in the modern age, it must adopt an increasing liberal attitude. There is no place in a modern Canada for the eXisting antiquated laws and a deeply embedded conservatism. Therefore, the survival of the political parties in Canada, particularly the Liberaland Conservative Parties, depends on the eXistence and dominating effect of the progressive factions in these parties. With this leftist domination, the political policies of &"1!,,~s ~VA.r;./- the Canadian government can evolve as the need is presented and public opinion demands it. The Liberal Party needs men of Walter Gordon's calibre and political views. The very existence of the Liberals in their position as the majority party h Canada depends on such men. What Canadians want are policies which illustrate a more progressive attitude. This desire has been shown in the current upsurge of the leftist third parties such as the New Democrats. To meet this growing threat of political annihilation, the Liberal Party has to, by necessity. take a more definite step and swing towards the left. This end can be achieved by the rise of men like Walter Gordon in the leadership of the Liberals. --- �ARGUS J ANUA-RY 27, 1967 TO I..ITTER Dear Editor: While the tone of this letter might seem to you to be prudish and intolerant, I feel I must bring my feelings to your attention.

The very fact thatit is given to a number, if not all, of the local high schools for distribution is indicative of the coverage that you have.

COLLEGE HOCKEY GETS BOOST Canada's first annual international hockey tournament was born in Montreal last week. And if the infant can be nunured to good health it will provide Canadian college hockey with a new booster. Invitations have already been received by ambassadors to Canada from Russia, Czechoslovakia and Sweden for university teams from those countries to panicipate in next year's Centennial College hockey tournament. The invitations were sent by J. DaVid Molson, Montreal Canadians president. •This can be a great athletic attraction,• says Molson, who also· disclosed he intends to inVite • one or two• top United States teams to the eight-team event. As foreign teams are added, the number of Canadian panicipants would be dropped to a probable minimum of three, according to Molson. -Why shouldn't college hockey occupy a significant place in Canadian life?• asks Molson.

Fridays game was the best turned in by the Lakehead University team this season as they fired 52 shots at the Huskies goaltender. Kas Myata easily handled the 17 shots fired his way as he registered the first shutout in International Collegiate play. Siciliano scored the first three goals of the game, then set up Dwight Stirrett and Dennis Olinik to record a 5 point effon. John Fallis rounded out the scoring on a pretty passing play from Lorne Gander. Despite some solid body checking from both sides, only three penalties were called, two to St. Cloud. In Saturday's encounter an aroused St. Cloud team held the high scoring Nor' Westers to a 2-1 lead until the 8 minute mark of the third period, when the Lakehead University squad fired home three quick tallies to break the game wide open. Dwight Stirrett was the opponunist as he picked up three unassisted tallies. Mike Tracey, a newcomer to the Lakehead University ranks, notched a pair, with Murray Smith rounding out the scoring. Al Johnson replacing Myata in the Lakehead University nets turned aside 25 shots to 27 for Juran in the Huskies net.

Since the federal chairman of SUPA, Mr. J.D. Harding, is on the faculty at Lakehead, the Argus took the opportunity of discussing the origin and aims of SUPA with Mr.Harding. Strangely enough when the Argus went to press Mr. Harding knew nothing about the formation of the local chapter. SUPA originated in Regina during Christmas of 1964 aa an outgrowth of the CUCNDCombined Universities Campaign for Nuclear Disarm.. ament. The method of the CUCND, which was oriented towards Canadian foreign policy, was to lobby all the political parties in Ottawa. It became irrelevant after the 1963 election when it lost its issue and the Pearson government adopted nuclear arms. Mr. Harding expressed the opinion that •the symbolism of Hiroshima was an underlying thing for the generation that created CUCND.• During the years from 1959-1964 when the CUCND existed, many thousands of students were involved in demonstrations; at the Regina campus of the University of Saskatchewan CUCND was the largest student involvement activity. This was also true at McGill in Montreal. A year of depression followed the 1963 election, during which time the leaders of CUC ND questioned the re- levancy of their concerns. During this same period the American civil rights movement was active, andattracted people in CUCND as representing the same goals.

CUMBERLAND PHONE 345-2137 t �JANUARY 27, 1967 ARGUS PAGE SEVEN COUNCIL BRIEFS At the AMS meeting on January 16, council's attention was drawn to the fact that car draw tickets were not going as quickly as expected. To the sixteenth, only $1,687.50 bad been turned in to the committee. Mr. Hider stated that 1,400 tickets bad been distributed, but that a greater effort was required to make the project a successful one. The problem of distribution also plagues the Circle K club in their efforts to sell University calendars. Only 400 of the 4570 calendars printed bad been sold at the date of the meeting. Mr. Cordingly asked if Circle K was a 'little slac~ in their work. Mr. Hider retorted 'Do you want my opinion?' Mr. Tocheri suggested that if a 25% instead of a 5% profit on each calendar was offered they would be sold more quickly. Mr. Tocheri's plan for a Board of Trustees was finally given council's approval. The board's purpose woul~ be to deal with the building fund and the retained surpluses. Mr. Tocheri also drew attention to a Political Science conference to be held at Michigan State, to discuss Cana<11an-Amer:ccan re1at1ons. It will be held February 14-16. ,Mr. Hider told council that the ORCUS convention to be held on campus will cost an estimated $3,000. The question of awarding the prize for a name for the Varsity teams came up in a letter from SAS President Chuck Sameluk. The letter stated that although Mr. Shannon, who suggested the name, was on the committee selecting names to be placed on the ballots, Shannon expected the prize to be paid. The prize SCHWARZ REPORT God.Aid for Healtl,,Sem~ OTTAWA (CUP)--A report which reveals glaring inadequacies in Canadian student health service suggests universities should seek federal government aid in improving them. The study, prepared by Conrad Schwarz, consultant psychiatrist at the University of British Columbia•s student health service, notes that only one Canadian university--Dalhousie--approaches American College Health Association standards of one doctor and one nurse per 1,000 students. The Schwarz Report, published Friday (Jan. 13) by the Canadian Union of Students, notes that general university funds, student levies and service fees have financed the o~ration of campus health services in Canada, but adds: With the introduction of a national medicare scheme, it might prove feasible for the health service to bill the government directly on a fee-for-service basis and to use the funds derived from thisforpayment of salaries, increase in staffing and purchase of equipment.' But such government grants would probably not cover all the costs of an 'adequate' health service which should be staffed with specialized technical personnel, Dr. Schwarz says. In his 41-page report written from surveys conducted last spring and summer among 49 Canadian institutions, the B.C. psychiatrist says that while 77 .5 per cent of Canadian campuses have some kind of health service, only 44.9 per cent provide any psychiatric service. Also among Dr. Schwarz• findings are the following: . About 55 per cent of university students bad felt a need for 'council or advice regarding emotional or psychological problems'. • Infirmary facilities 'appear to be present on 33.8 per cent of Canadian campuses, but the physical settings and professional supervision provided showed wide variations•. . Students are using health services 'extensively', from the number of student visits recorded on 20 campuses. Dr. Schwarz points to surveys conducted by students after a 1963 conference on student mental health which show that more than half of Canadian students have felt 'a desire _to seek counsel or advice regarding emotional or psychological problems.' The same survey found that students rank their most there was too much workfor-serious problems as 'despondency and depression, lack four executive members to handle on a part time basis. of self-confidence and relations with the opposite sex.'

After considerable discussion, it was resolved that the prize money would be sent to the Athletic Board, 'to be used at their discretion'. Mr. Tocheri announced that since the Board of Governors • would be reviewing the summer budget shortly, it must be determined what is to be charged as Summer Student fees. Last year a one dollar token fee was collected. This year, a five dollar fee, estimated by Mr. Hider to be sufficient, will be charged. According to Mr. Tocheri, the fees next year will be raised also. The University is growing faster than the council, he stated, and as a result, the dollar- ratio return in benefits received by the student would approach more closely to the desired 100% if fees are increased. Mr. Hider commented that he bas been receiving criticism With respect to the quality of the dances. In future, dances will be restricted to students holding cards from the University, schools of Nursing, and Teacher's College. Mr. Penner commented that the advertising was also poor, since it was directed towards the gummers, not the students. Mr. Thompson questioned the inclusion of Teacher's College at our dances. It appears that they do 'the square root of.. ! for us in return. Mr. Hider replied that some Foresters of a past , class, in a somewhat irresponsible state, blemished the escutcheon of our institute at the neighbouring College. Fiesta Latina, an annual llniversity affair, was discussed. It was decided that the AMS would not subsidize part of the cost, as is customary at the Dinner Dances. Itappears that this affair is one of the few functions of that nature that actually makes money. A.M.S. TO HIRE FULL TIME PERSONEL r I The A.M.S. bas proposed to council that the society consider the employment of one or two full-time administrative assistants. The executive will draw up a brief outlining its requ1rements and recommendations to be submitted to council before the installation of the new executive, but to be acted upon by the incoming body. At the Jan. 9 regular meeting President Tocheri outlined why at least one full time position must be created to aid the A.M.S. He pointed out that with the increased size of the university and the corresponding increase in the responsibilities, projects, and expenses of the society that WE WON! J BY WILLIAM SHERIDAN Was the Canadian Confederation experiment a success? Simon Hoad and William Sheridan, under the guidance of Mr. Alan Alexander of the Political Science department, formed the Lakehead University debating team; they debated the above topic, both pro and con, at London. Totn Owen of the University of Western Ontario petitioned the federal government to hold a debating tournament to commemorate Canada's Centennial. The government agreed to sponsor the debates both academically and financially. The topics of the Continental Debating Committee were appropriate for the occasion. The setup was parliamentary in style, with questions and heckling permitted. Since the principle of Confederation is easier to disclaim than to uphold, we lost the pro and won the con. On the topic 'Do Canadians Have more Fun?' we agreed and tied. (After all, the sale of contraceptives is up.) On the resolution 'That a good title for a History of Canada was 'The Permanent Colony'' we agreed and won. Of the 24 participating universities, L.U. placed 11th, which is a very promising showing, since our team bad less than a week to prepare their arguments. Individually, Mr. Hoad ranked 10th and Mr. Sheridan 13th out of 48 contestants. This presents a good opportunity for both staff and students to form a winning debate team at Lakehead.

There were only two campus political clubs represented at the meeting, the University Liberals and the NDY club. The University Progressive Conservatives were expect to be formed after the Thurs. night lecture by Hugh Grafftey, P .C. M.P. from Quebec. _ The submitted budgets came to a total of $229, with the breakdown as fol- lows: ' --non-panisan budget $ 44 --NDY budget $111 --Liberal budget $ 74 I I I I, The question was raised by Mr. Cordingly as to why so much was required to run a model parliament which was intended to be simply an exercise. It was explained by the members of the parties present at the meeting that the costs of running a good campaign to aro~e sufficient interest in the parliament, plus the costs of running advertisements in the ARGUS were included. Mr. Hider asked jf the ARGUS would run ads for the parliament free of charge. Co-editor Colbome explained that a special supplement on the model parliament had been plaMed. One of the items on the NDY budget was the rental of public speaking equipment Mr. Jordan questioned the need to spend$ 30 on this item since there is equipment in the University. Mr. Robinson of the NDY stated that this expenditure was necessary to bis campaign. Miss Gall of the • Liberals suggested that this item should be on the non-paniSan budget so that the equipment could be PAGE EIGHT ARGUS JANUARY 27, 1967 used by all concerned. Mr. Hider then gained the approval of the Co1D1cil for changing this expense from the NDY to the non-partisan bud- 1 get. Mr. Marwood presented the question of the ability of the clubs to raise their ow-,"l funds. Mr. Robson explained that although the Liberals had done so to a limited extent, the NOY club could not pursue their desired position of independence wlth respect to ·:>ther NDP eXtablisbments in the area if they solicited support from their co:itacts. Mr. Marwood replied that it was bis im?ress:!.on that clubs had only to ask, and they would receive money from the council. Miss Ticknor interrupted this discussion with the point that each club should receive the sa.-ne nmow1t fro:n the AMS. Mr, Thompson s~t the optimu n amount at $50 per club. Mr. Marwood asked who would be elegible for this grant.

MONTREAL (CUP)-A revised version of the Uni-■ versity of Montreal's charter contains a proposal to include students and professors in the university's board of governors and senate. The new charter, which will go before the Legislative Assembly for approval, will permit two students to sit on the board of governors, said associate vicerector Paul Lacoste. The two students. who must hold the equivalent of a BA Honors degree 'will be appointed after consultation with student representatives', said Mr. Lacoste. Professors will be officially associated with the university for the first time through their five seats on the board. • Other board members will be appointed by the provincial government, the archbishop of Montreal and U of M graduates. In addition, a 70-member senate, including deans, professors and students, will be created to nominate the rector and approve major decisions. The new cbanerwill transform the university -into a democratic secular public institution with a decentralized administration, said rector Roger Gaudry. CONFERENCE REPORT U. of M. - UNIVERSITY CITY BY TED WALKER Four Lakehead University delegates attended the University of Manitoba conference on University, Jan~ 14-15. At the risk of giving A.M.S. treasurer Ronald Hider a coronary, it is suggested that perhaps the conference would better have been attended by Claude Smith, David Morgan, or other administrative personnel, as the conference was administrative and not student oriented. The delegates reported that the subject of the conference was primarily residence financing, university plaMing problems, organiZation of governingbodiesatanadm~trative level only, and the problems of university-community commW1ication. Discussion also turned to the ratiQ of resident to commuter students, a ratio that most instruetors present seemed to find extremely unsausfac_tory. The instructors expressed the opinion that commuter students came to school every day for their regular 'ration of knowledge and lecture notes.• In one of the panel discussions it was brought out that lectures and labs per se do not constitute a full education. The panelists felt that discussion among students and faculty was necessary, but that no facilities for this were provided. This, in tum, led back to a discussion of university planning and the problems of financing any new facilities. One question which was of considerable interest to students did arise, albeit briefly, buf was squelched with diplomacy that would do credit to Wayne Tocheri. The president of the student body of the University of Manitoba bad very gently asked about student representation on the board of governors. Several gentlemen in the audience, who could have been planted there, rather loudly brought the question to the fore. The chairman looked at his watch, and noting that it was almost time for coffee, developed a terrific thirst and quickly closed the discussion. The conference, although interesting from a student's point of view, did not impart a practical son of knowledge. However, the next time I want to build a residence I'll know where to start. STUDENT FILM TERMED OBSCENE HAMIL TON (CUP)--A movie film produced by Mc Master University students showing a woman in bed with two men bas been viewed by Metro Toronto's morality squad at a processing laboratory there. Sgt. John Wilson of the morality squad said charges might be laid against the film's makers on the ground that it is obscene. The eight-minute sequence in question is part of a scene in Black Zero. one of trilogy being directed by John Hofsess, a former McMaster student. The scene shows two men in bed with a woman. None of the three is undressed, but their actions might be construed as obscene, said Sgt. Wilson. But Peter Rowe; president of the university's film board, said Monday (Jan. 9) there was no possibility of laying charges. 'The film is only pan of a working print and may be edited before the final film is submitted to the Ontario Board of Censors.' Mr. Rowe said the film was probably taken by the morality squad because some film producers bad been reported as slipping small erotic scenes into larger sequences, then clipping them out and splicing them to similar scenesfrom other films to produce stag movies.

Don Holmstrom scored twenty-two points in a winning effort followed by Myron Warywoda with twelve and George Kostyshyn with ten. Lindenberg was high man for Brandon with nineteen followed by Myers and Taylor with twelve and Harve with eleven. The second game, played Sunday• was a coaches nightmare with the lead changing hands no less than eleven times before going into overtime tied 57 to 57. At the nine minute mark of the second half the Nor'westers led 48 to 34 only to discover they trailed 50 to 48 five minutes later. The lead then changed hands four times before Bob Elvin tied the Caps by sinking a foul shot with six seconds remaining. In the five minute overtime the Caps jumped into a three point lead when Lindenberg was fouled sinking a shot. The Norwesters trailed by • two at the 4:15 mark but Bob Bemko cut the margin to one by sinking a foul shot. The . Caps then tried to freeze the ball but Maurice Siemeniuk stole the ball and passed off to Rob Cameron who then passed off to George Kostyshyn who passed back to Cameron. Rob Cameronmade no mistake as he let a thirty foot shot go Just as the final buzzer went. The shot was perfect and the Norwesters won 62 to 61. High scorers for the Nor• westers were Bob Elvin with 17. George Kostyshyn. with 13 and Myron Warywode with 10. For Brandon Lindenberg hooped 25 with Harvey scoring nine. The two wins over Brandon represent the first two wins ever in Intercollegiate Basketball Competition for out young University and what an exciting way to break into the win column. Sunday's game has to be rated the most exciting basketball game ever played in the Lakehead. If Rob Cameron• s shot had been a split second later it would not have counted. That last basked scored by Cameron were his only two points of the game. Next games for our local crew is against Cambrian College of the Sault February 10th and 11th. COS OFFICIAL BLASTS IRRELEVANCE REGINA (CUP) -- A Canadian Union of Students official has termed the recent withdrawal of eight universities from CUS a •healthy sign• that students are trying to reiate to their academic communities. Stu~ents .are beginning to think realistically about what the academic community is and how they can best relate to it, field secretary Rolli Cacchioni said in an interview here last week. Some universities feel they can't relate through CUS, Cacchioni added, and this is why they have withdrawn. The field secretary said CUS will only become relevant to Canadian students if local students' councils relate its pro§rams to their electorates. What the SRC is doing at Re.fina campus is quite irrelevant to the individual student, charged Cacchioni. •They are tied up with petty administrative matters. •until they realize the difference between being a legislative rather than an administrative body, they can't be active on this campus. The student council must realize it is an inteval part of the university community--not an adjunct to it. Cacchioni claimed Canadian universities are •middleclass ghettoes which function like corporations in which the raw material--students--is fed in one end, computerized and processed, then exuded at the other end as university students who have achieved the union ticket necessary for success in our society.• Lakehead University, playing a tremendous forechecking game, fired 118 shots in two games at the Brandon Caps goalie, Bill Warren, beating him eighteen times for 9 - O and 9 - 1 wins. Murray Smith showed the way for the local pucksters, firing five goals plus one assist, Dwight Stirrett added four markers and had three assists while Dave Siciliano shot two goals and added seven assists. In the. first game Smith opened the scoring at 1: 29 of the first period from Battiston and 5tefissyn followed by Stirrett from Siciliano and Olinik at the 19:27 mark. The second period saw goals by Stirrett, Morancy, and Siciliano with Stirrett scoring his hat trick in the third together with goals by Olinik, Stefissyn and Battiston. The second game Sunday was much rogher than the first game Saturday with eight penalties compared to two. Lakehead University took 7 of the 10 penalties in the two games.

URGES STRIKE DROPPED VANCOUVER (CUP) --The president of the University of British Columbia Tuesday January 24, urged student leaders to drop plans for a general student strike if the provincial government does not meet university needs next year. Monday night students' council voted overwhelmingly to lead students on the strike if the education grants for B.C: s three universities fall below the$ 66 million requested by UBC president John Macdonald. Council voted to back a strike referendum to be held Feb. 14, and suggested the strike would be held in early March after the department makes its submission to the legislature. The strike would mean that all buildings and roads on campus would be closed for at least one day. Student picket lines would be organized to prevent campus access for all but researchers engaged in unstoppable projects. The 17,300 students will have a chance to vote yes or no in the referendum which is worded: •If the B.C. government does not allocate $66million to higher education in B.C. as recommended by the Macdonald formula, would you suppon an AMS-sponsored week of concern including a strike within that week, and would you serve on a picket line?• Macdonald's anti-strike statement said the needs of each of the universities in B.C. as recommended bythe B.C. have alreadybeenmade clear to the government. •That is as far as the universities have any right to go. The decision in respect to the size of the grants to the universities is exclusively a decision of the government and the legislature placed in power by the people of this province. • Any talk or threat of strike by the students is completely irresponsible and L.

Siciliano, Smith and Stirrett continue to play inspired hockey but the end to end rushes of Clare Battiston, now playing defence, had the Arena buzzing. Dennis Olinik now playing left wing with Siciliano and Stirrett is playing fine hockey but Mike Tracey who just started with the Nor'westers should prove to be a champion before he's finished. Ron Hamilton, a first year student who played for Schreiber last season replaced, Miyata in the nets for the second game and put in a great effort.

S HED A THE NEW DEMOCRATIC WAY THE ARGUS Co-Editors FEB. 3, 1967 TEAR FOR THE EXEC• PAGE TWO TN■ PII­ OF LIIIEIIALIIII Canadian foreign policy should be designed to prepare for world peace, not to prepare for war. It is absurd to think in terms of trying to win a nuclear war. All Canadians should have the right to receive education and training up to the limit of their varying capacities, to be protected against abuse of power and the depredations of organized crime, and to enjoy honest and efficient government at all levels. Those whohavesufferedeconomicadversity or mental illness or have run afoul of the law have a right to intelligent and sympathetic help, so that theywillhave a greater chance of becoming productive members of society again. Equality of educational opportunity must be the guiding principle in formulating education policy. This calls not simply for an expansion and redistribution of educational expenditures, but also for a continual review of standards of teaching, curriculum and other elements thatareessential to real equality. A Lakehead University New Democratic Government will provide the educationalfoundationsuponwhichamature democracy can be solidly built. The important question concerning Confederation is not what does Quebec want, but rather what do we want Canada to be. A Lakehead University NDP Govt. will adopt policies which would enable French Canadians to fee 1 confident that they rank as first class citizens in Canada as a whole. As the NDP programme hits hard at poverty in general, an NDP Govt. will automatically make a determined effort to eliminate the so-called •Indian problem•. An NDP Govt. would have Indians design and implement programmes specifically affecting them. Students of Lakehead University arise. Stand for the Liberals and give us the sea (In the Model Parliament of course)! The opposition has advocated •nationalize to Canadiantze•, •tree education•, andothe equally socialistic measures, designed t reduce the individual Canadian citizen to th status of a puppet whose strings are pulle by the anarchy of the highest equals The basic tenet of Liberalism is the dignity and worth of every individual. Thus, each individual is an end-in-himself no merely a means to an end. The state an government, Liberals believe, exist to serve man and eXist by virtue of the consent ot the governed. From this follow some of the principles of Liberalism -- freedom, equality, security, toleration, reform. To the Liberal, equality means equal opportunity for all individuals. It means equal rights for all individuals before the law. Equality entails equity -- fairness d justice for all individuals. To the Liberal, security means the freedom from fear, the freedom from danger. Security includes not only military but also economic security for all individuals. To the Liberal, toleration means that indiduals are free to disagree with con• ventional opinion even if these be the prevailing views of the government of society, or our own beliefs. Toleration is the recirocal side of freedom. To the Liberal, reform means changefor e better. Any new proposal is a change or the better, a reform, if it increases reedom, reduceshardshipandrestrictions, nsures equality for all, and implies military or economic security. The Liberal Party is the party of reform. u - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - C 1 T 1 t s aim is, and always has been, to build a better nation, to strengthen and safeguard our democracy, and to protect the rights and freedoms of individuals in everr VOTE LAKEHEAD U.

DO11 LET YOURSELF BE BOUGHT OUT Elections for executive positions on the AMS will be held within the next two weeks. These positions, if handled responsibly, can be the most trying that any student would choose to undertake. To be handled adequately, they involve a tremendous amount of time and sacrifice. Academic standing and social activities often have to be foregone.

On top of this is the constant pressure to communicate with and reflect the genuine feelipgs of the student body. It is easy to make enemies when such burdens demand unilateral decisions and the necessity to refuse worthwhile requests and to periodically pull rank. It is a rare evening or Sunday that at least two of the executive are not in the offices. These people have to be present at virtually all University functions and the blame for any failure mustfallbackonthem. Smoothly-run successes are senfom credited. In addition to all this, the executive must contend with an obstinate and often poorly-informed council. It is clear that an executive member of the society must be a very special type of person. Whatever his motives, be they dedication, a genuine desire to see this University flourish, a dissatisfaction with past shortcomings, or selfish thirst for power and prestige, he must fill certain requirements: -- a positive and progressive programme of student rights. /;vo,,,11/.3 .•.

Diefenbaker In '68 THE LEAST YOU CAN DO Contrary to its usual infra-red editorial policies, the ARGUS will devote this editorial to as sincerely an unbiased account of the forthcoming Model Parliament as is possible in view of the place from which this emanates. Election day is right now -- Feb. 3. We don't care whom you vote for (much) but we do care that you vote. The Parliament itself will be held Feb. 16, 17, and 18, in the Great Hall. Dean Kerr is to be the GovernorGeneral, and Mr. A. Alexander of the Political Science department will be the Speaker of the House. We feel that since one of our staffers is dedicated to the Parliament to the extent that he has been willing to give up his regular column on this page, the least you can do is to express an interest by voting today. No outstanding self-sacrifice is expected, other than that of the previously mentioned Mr. Phillips. The fight for the leadership of the Progressive Conservative party is an interesting one. Let us take a look at some of ther personalities involved. John Diefenbaker is a man who will not quit. It took him five tries before he was elected and that was in the days when elections weren't held every year or so. Through his debates in the House he was revealed as a brilliant man and the Liberals promptly tried to get rid of him. Firstly, they bought the house next to his and opened it as a house for unwed Indian mothers. There were other attempts, but the last one came whe n they reduced his riding to 1/8 its size and took away his support to another tiding. But this backfired and the people were so angry they overwhelmingly elected him; he hasn't looked back since. He also had trouble in getting control of his own party. He was just too liberal to be a Conservative. It took him a long time to get what he wanted, and he isn't about to give up now. Since Diefenbaker won't give up, Starr and Hamilton, two very able men are eliminated. As strong Diefenbaker supporters they will not run against him. This situation leaves only two serious contenders, Hees and Fulton. Fulton has already had a chance at leading the B.C. proVincialConservativesandfailed miserably. His chances federallf, if he can't succeed in his own home aren t too good. Hees can be dismissed in a word because he is not well liked. What it all boils d9wn to is that Dief. will be here in '68 unless he dies before, but I'm beginning to think it won't be from natural causes. �FEB. 3, 1967 THE ARGUS When a Student Generation Protests by Don Sellar (CUP staff writer) OTTAWA--The Schwarz Repon on student health services across Canada pays more than lip service to student unrest on the Canadian university scene. Underlying its clinicallydelivered observations about the sorry state of student health services in Canada is a four-page warning to university administrators and governments. Dr. Schwarz- message to them is clear: there is a new generation of students on Canadian campuses which refuses to swallow irrelevant courses dished out by incompetent lecturers. While their predecessors were content about grumbling among themselves about food services, parking regulations, housing facilities and book store prices, the new breed iB challenging 'even formerly sacrosanct higher levels of university government with demands for student representation in open university decisionmaking, observes the UBC psychiatrist. The report calmly admits that if only negative signs are read into the new discontent, more destructive forms of student protest-the Berkeleys--will be generated in Canada. And not only that, 'but one can also fail to recognize the power which students have to contribute to the growth of universities'. .writes Dr. Schwarz. This student yearning for power is based on the theme that students w ant to do something positive to improve university conditions. That student concern for what happens to universities .;;;....;;..;.;;;;;...;;.;;.:~---;.;.;...;...__,..;..... is both legitimate and use- ful bas been borne out by student demonstrations in suppon of progressive university leaders and policies• he argues, pointing out that demonstrations are 'more likely to be made within the university to the university leaders but not necessarily against them'. Finding the cause of student unrest is not as difficult as some administrators and faculty members might think. According to Dr• Schwarz, manifestations of student concern can be attributed to the search by individual students for what he calls 'appropriate consideration' as individuals. The identity quest is only one aspect of current student complaint. The other area, related more to dissatisfaction with the educational process itself, can be seen as a demand for greater individual attention in an increasingly impersonalized university situation. The knowledge and enrolment explosions are producing this reaction in Canada the report suggests. lncreasing class sizes, greater specialization among faculty members and a withering dialogue between ·aculty and students are takir.gtheirtoll. 'While in smaller universities students may still find that they can form a learning and maturing relationship with a faculty member. in the larger universities, such contacts are extremely . rare. Faculty members in such institutions, although very much concerned about their lack of rapport with students, are fully a ware that 1f they begin to give individual attention to each student their already heavily over-loaded schedules will become unbearable. Dr. Schwarz then issues his grim warning. 'What seems to be needed. and what is being done in many centres. is a new look at the total university experience in order to find more meaningful ways of encouraging true learning even when large numbers of students have to be involved. But these approaches require even greater attention to the total individual and to the whole university envtronment! Thus, not only is it impertive that remedial treatment be given to students suffering from various forms of personality and bebaviour disorders, but a po-. sitive program of mental hygeine must be started in educational institutions. What Dr. Schwarz is advocating is a revolution in student health services in Canada, but the remainder of his report would seem to bear out the need for same. His descriptions of health facilities on individual campuses are rampant with criticism, even though the psychiatrist is reluctant to condemn or editorialize. The truth is that nearly one. quarter of Canadian post-secondary institutions don't have health services; infirmary facilities are present on only 38.8 per cent of Canadian campuses and psychiatric services are found at only 44.9 per cent of these schools. And figures show there is a whole generation of student anxiety waitingfor treatment from doctors who understand the university environment . PAGE THREf BROWNED OFF by Dark Brown In September. when certain of our students took up vegetating in residence. they were presented with a number of printed sheets, listing the Does and Don'ts of behaviour. Among these were no alcohol (not even the empty bottles), no women in the rooms. no guns and no disorderly conduct. The example on how to regard these rules was promptly set by some 2nd and 3rd year students who threw several wild and woolly parties or shall we call them orgies. Of course the first year students immediately followed this shining example. The situation soon deteriorated to the point that an •Animal of the Week Award' was being given for such incidents as passing out while ladies were present and barfing in the washrooms. They even started a club, known unofficially as 'Cherry Pickers Anonymous•. Certain others. full of P. and V.• burned off steam by water fighting with wine akins and staning Chug-alug' contests which usually wound up on the floor. Come the Christmas review. certain first year students were kicked out. while those 2nd and 3rd year men involved were not. The rea- son given was that they had rifles in their rooms. There were other students who al.. so bad guns in their rooms. Why this double standard? Were they asked to leave only because they were creating a disturbance? Certainly not. Only those first year students who . raised hell among themselves instead of with 2nd and 3rd r,ear men were given the boots•. It appears that no definite system of enforcing discipline was set up. True. proctors were appointed, but a few of these were among the worst hell-raisers. The students were not given the chance to appear before the Judiciary Committee. where they could defend themselves. Does the Residence Administration blackball any :>ffending students who are not personal friends of the proctors? , 1 PerGeetl M1111lr ~ Dial 1230 _____________ MODEL PARLIAMENT TODAY For the first time in the history of Lakehead University. there will be a student Model Parliament. The entire student body bas the chance to panicipate in this undertaking, for they are the electorate. Each student bas the opportunity to vote, not on party platforms as presented by the national parties, but on student platforms as presented by the political clubs on campus. By voting on the issues as presented, the students of L.U. may show their stands on current problems, relative to the rest of Canada. To validate such a consensus it is imperative that all the students exercise their franchise and vote on Feb. 3 The political clubs campaigning in the election have presented their policies. It is now up to each individual student to assess these platforms maturely and cast a vote for the party that best meets his or her political beliefs. The success of this first Model Parliament depends on the student support it receives. So •vote.

PROGRAM Juvenile delinquency bas become an increasingly frequent phenomena of our Western Civilization. As contrasted to this, Eastern and pre-literate societies had BY USING YOUR a surprising lack of these problems. A study of the contributory factors should -be therefore, highly perVOTE tinent. Perhaps as an opening gambit, it could be pointed out that juvenile delinquency rests upon sociological definition. Premarital sexuality, teenage drinking, and allocation of rights to the young is largely determined by the traditions of the individual cultures. The making of such moral laws is just a method of canonizing our prejudices, and using the threat of force to ensure their implimentation. A psychological interpretation is valid only when it is realized that the individual must internalize the values· of his society in forming his personality. Thus, the corporate values of a society determine modes of action, and so of delinquency. If a comprehensive view such as outlined here is used _as a format for this conference, some valuable conclusions and suggestions may come forth.

Council Monday (Jan. 30) concluded a two-hour debate by authorizing its 'official representatives' to give what assistance they can to persons fleeing from the U.s. draft. Peter Warrian, domestic affairs commissioner and member of the Student Union for Peace Action, will be responsible for implementing the program. During debate on the draft-resistance resolution, it appeared council members wouldn't accept the idea of helping draft-dodgers fleeing the U.s. out of cowardice. But inclusion of a clause indicating their desire to help only Americans acting on moral principles apparently satisfied all councillors. One councillor who opposed the resolution was engineering rep Andy Moore who said: 'If individuals are allowed to run awar from their responsibilities, society would break down. Another councillor disagreed, saying, 'If nobody in Hitler's Germany had the moral right to object to the killing of 4 million people. If you want to say that, we'll settle the issue outside! The draft-resistance program planned for Waterloo is intended to help immigrants adjust to Canadian life. Legal information, employment opportunities and other background will be made available. STUDENTS PICKET WINTERS At 6:00 p.m., January 30, ten university students formed a special 'reception line' for the Hon. Robert Winters, guest speaker at the Chamber of Commerce banquet in the University Centre's Great Hall. As the 400 plus dinner guests moved from their cocktails in the cafeteria to the Great Hall they were met by the students, lining each side of the stairway. who carried placards protesting the sale of military supplies to the United States. The objective of the pickets was to urge Mr. Winters, in his capacity as Minister of Trade and Commerce, to honour Canada's 'peac~ ef- forts' and supposedly 'neu• th I t tral position on Commise n ernational Control sion in Vietnam, byprohititing the sale of strategic war materials to the U.S. and other warring parties in • V1etnam.

In voting last Friday the Liberals picked up 17 of 33 seats and 239 of the 454 votes cast. The parliament will sit for three days on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of next week. The NOP club ran a surprisingly weak second with 32. 7% of the votes giving them 11 seats. The Disraeli Conservatives, a moderate right-wing group, took 14.4% or 5 seats. Bert Baumann of Arts II, leader of the Liberals and Prime Minister of the parliament was interviewed as soon as the result"! were in and expressed 'pure joy' at the outcome. He attributed the success of his party's campaign to the hardworkof his organization and the belief that its policies refleeted the political opinion of most of the students on campus. He also expressed the opinion that 'perhaps some protests and so on that were not officially sanetioned bytheNDP ... damaged its chances.' He said be bad not expected a majority and was surprised that the NDP did not get many more votes than it did. Commenting on the relatively high Disraeli Conservative vote which involved only a party of one and no campaign whatsoever Mr. Baumann said that the name of that party was proba bl Y confuse d Wl·th the Progressive Conservatives who did not enter candidates. He also thought that the core of students from conservative backgrounds would votefora conservative platform of any description. Ken Robinson, leader of the NOP on campus had a prepared statement following the election.

He must feed solely on his senses, consuming himself and his surroundings as he works, and digesting with his mind. He has no boundaries as such; the entire world is his own as he chooses. He is in the process of perpetual creation, whether it be seeing, hearing, tasting, learning, loving, etc. Not only must he do these things, but he must be above them in order to incorporate them into his , art. He is the bird in flight as much as the grub in the field. He is all things through the exercise of art. Thus, nothing is sacred to him, because he is familiar with everything or can be if he chooses. Beauty, truth, love, woman - all things are his subjects. If we have holy absolutes, then we must have profane ones as well. That is, ugliness, falsehood, hatred, whoredom. As things exist, so the artist must use them, no matter what they be if he sees fit to make them part of his art. There is no man to judge what he produces, because the artist is from the loins of Everyman. And if Everyman criticizes, he is then criticizing himself. In his position, the artist is not responsible for his art. So it is then that he is above censorship for vulgarity, obscenity, pornography and the dozen other words of the same genre. •-In using these elements which are deemed evil, the artist is merely recording what is, with the embellishments of his imagination. It is his solemn task to do these things truly, whether they be good, bad, or indifferent. Let no man, therefore, pass judgment on his work. If a count of - the citizenry wishes to stop the eVil in art, then let that same citizenry eradicate the evil that exists. Art is the document of what is; let he who is without sin burn the first book. If a work is censored, it is rendered impotent, and no one should take the responsibility of pacifying the truth. Our education, our learning, our experienne should give us the quality of rationality, the ability to determine worthiness or value. We should be able to be objective, to have an open mind, to allow another man's view, especially an artist's. And we should be indignant when the censor deprives us of this privilege, even when what we view is coloured by so-called 'obscenities•. H~_U!E~P~~:~S BRYAN SPRINGGAY mercldile 'falt accompli' Two weeks ago, a convey of important banking executives from the United States, led by Chairman James Stillmore Rockefeller, appeared before the Commons Finance Committee to defend their 1963 purchase of the Mercantile BanlcofCanada. As a result of suchamovemanyCanadians feared a growing domination of foreign capital in Canadian banking. But what most Canadians did not realize was the fact that the powerful influential First National City Bank of New York bad bought the Mercantile Banlc, by far the smallest of Canada's eight chartered banks and the only foreign owned, from its Dutch founders. Thus the Mercantile Banlc was simply changing foreign owners. The Mercantile fuss, however, was notthe result of a change in foreign ownership. But when the First National City Bank, with assets of $14.7 billion and subsidiaries in forty-four countries, outbids five European and American rivals for Mercantile, one can see a danger for Canada's economic independence. The crisis began in 1963, for on July 18 of that year, Rockefeller, chairman of the First National and Mercantile' s President Robert MacFadden called on the Finance Minister, Walter Gordon. According to a memo drafted immediately after the meeting, Rockefeller declined that his bank bad made an arrangement but no •final commitment to buy Mercantile' s shares and on that basis Gordon advised him to adopt the purchase o:,; face the risk of restrictive legislation. Last week Rockefeller offered evidence to the Commons Committee that the First National had in fact closed the deal twenty-two days earlier in an agreement signed on June 26, 1963. The agreement was binding and irrevocable - a •fait accompli'. It is evident that the American financier exhibited back-alley tactics whj.le working in the dark shadows to get the deal completed. With · the purchase legality sane- tioned, Rockefeller approached the Canadian Finance Minister, a man who should have been the final consultant before agreement was drafted. It was obviously too late for Gordon to even attempt to ward off the American plans. Canadians, however, are not going to surrender without .a fight, The sword that bangs over the Mercantile Banlc lies in Section 75(2)(g) of Bill C-222, the Government's decennial revision of the Bank Act. By this clause foreign ownership of any bank is restricted to 25%, or otherwise limiting its assets to emasculating 20 times authorized capital, and thus force Mercantile, which even now does less than 1% of Canada's banking business, to pare its assets from $224. 9 million to $200 million. Canadians, therefore, although they cannot prevent the American purchase legally, can restrict the American economic influence expansion through the Mercantil Banlc through legislation. Last week, Mitchell Sharp, the Minister of Finance, suggested that as a solution the First National City Bank of New York divest itself of 75% of its shares in Mercantile, which could either grow without restriction. Though Rockefeller had already rejected that motion because •there's no percentage in doing the work and giving somebody else a percentage of the profits. Sharp persisted hinting that Mercantile might begin up to ten years to show a profit before it is required to sell. In this way, either by giving up 75% of the shares now or by sale ten years from now, the Mercantile Banlc will be controlled by Canadian interests. Canada cannot afford to restrict foreign banking if she wants to be a banking centre and a world money market. To boost her economy and financial outlook, Canada should encourage foreign investiture in Canada, including Canadian banking. Butwe must be sure that we control foreign investment and that foreign investment does not control us. END OF AN ERA Lakehead University students finally appear to be throwing off the •icy chains of custom• as evidenced by their more than adequate participation in the Winter carnival and subsequent good turn-out in the Model Parliament elections. . Apathy, thatfavorite mental state of most L.U. hippies, seem especially to have lessened last week when nearly forty percent of the student body decided to vote in the Now a forty-percent turnout isn't tremendous, but when a twenty-percent showing is regarded, (for similar events) as a miracle at the University of Toronto, Lakehead students may applaud their own efforts. Now in order to draw a parallel in this editorial and preserve unity of thought we shall have a minor divergence to a sub-theme. On Feb. 15, elections of a more important nature - Society - are happening. The student government which will be spending your money next year will be chosen. So here is your chance to make sure your twenty dollars or more is going to again be spent competently next time around. It is a poor reflection on a council when it is burdened with a surplus of six-thousand do!lars at the end of a year due to either a lack of' qualified councillors or students SUP- Guide to Small-town Journalism Model Parlia"i:'~~°iiR~T~tbe,ii~Maini i ~ ' i ° l l a . Every small town should have at least one newspaper. It should be a nice newspaper. It should be owned by a foreign multi-millionaire. If there is more than one they should all be owned by the same foreign millionaire. It should cover its front page with pictures and details of the latest fatal accident. It should tell all about the new tractor that farmer Jones just bought. It should revise editorials from Monday's Globe and Mail to print as its own on Tuesday. It must fill its pages with trivial wirecopy when the ad department can• t. Its literary efforts should be restricted to reviews of the latestrhododendronmanual and an annual cookbook. Its reporters must be content to work for $35. a week plus bus tickets to assignments. They should have no writing ability and little education or training. It should be conservative in its politics, oblivious to social problems, unaware of sex, preoccupied with gore and generally pleasant and uncontroversial in everything it prints. • II. RADIO Every small town should have at least one radio station. It should be a nice radio station. It should be owned by a rich local personnage and prostituted to propagandize for the status quo which he heads. If there is more than one station they should all be owned and prostituted by rich local personnages. It must appeal to frustrated paranoic housewives during the day and to teenie-boppers of all j:\ges at night. It should have at least one resident bigot to editorialize, a mindless clod or two read handouts on the half-hour and call it a news report, and a rabble of adult children to play recqrds, read commercials, and report the latest temperature both at the airoort and downtown. Ill. TELEVISION Every small town should have at least one television station. It should be a nice television station. It should be owned by a rich local personnage. If there is more than one station it is not a small town so forget all this. TV stations are all network-obsessed and kind of blah so forget this anyway. tV.

Dear Sir: LETTE_R NO. 1 Referring to the Editor• s childish outburst entitled •A MOST STUPID DECISION' in which he points out that the !!!!!!g of $3000 is a •sTUPID DECISION'; I would suggest Dear Editor, that, rather it is you who is the •sTUPID DECISION'. (Unless the value of money these days is nil.) I am sure too that the A.M.S. Council members accused with this 'act of unbelievable irresponsibility' by you will not take too kindly in the future to your intellectual and emotional capabilities of which you seem to lack to a high degree. ObViously you have never heard of newspaper etiquette; and I would heartily recommend a few lessons in journalism. (Preferably before your next editorial). Ironically page 3 titled 'LITTER TO THE EDITOR' shows much more writing talent than most of the other articles in the ARGUS (excluding the advertisements). I must admit though that this week's movie review is a vast improvement over the previous one. I suggest also to Joseph Fiorito that he stop wasting his obvious talent on smut and contribute some worthy reading material in future issues. Although the ARGUS is read by over 90% of the student body it seems to be a reflection of less than 5%. Yet it is through our newspaper that L.U.'s image is reflected to the public (not to mention one certain drunken parade). Yes, if these are examples of how we are seen I think I prefer to remain hidden. Richard Peacosh, Arts I Money is donated yearly to Lakehead University in the hope that the young will be taught to think for themselves. However, it seems that some of our benefactors feel they are supporting a junior Sunday School class who thinks only within established boundaries. They were as a result quite shocked upon finding out that not all of us here are brainless blobs and we were repaid for thinking with a petty and thoughtless retaliation. I have heard accusations that the Argus is a petty and trite paper but in these two fields the Argus can never even hope to compete with the News Chronicle, as can be seen by anyone who read the Jan. 31/67 article on the student demonstration. The facts were distorted to suit the reporter's views and some were untrue. For example, the protest was not by the N.D.P. Perhaps Mr. Winters would do well to recommend a book on the causes of World War II to some senior newspaper men. Keep thinking Lakehead Untversity.

Lovelady & Sons in one of my first columns this year I asked a question concerning the need of cheerleaders at this university. The column, 'Do We Need Cheerleaders', demand for eight or ten cute cheerleaders to spark our hockey and basketball teams and to spread enthusiasm in our home game bleachers. by the athletic coordinator that they were to cheer at the basketball game on the Saturday night not one showed up. The next day two arrived for the game--thats two out of eight--and they put on a very enthusiastic performance. It was so spirited that it wouldn't have aroused a cat to chase , a mouse.

Two weekends ago the Nor'Westers basketball team played their first home intercollegiate games in over a year. But the same night the hockey team was playing against a college team that couldn'thave.beaten a girls team. In fact the hockey squad drubbed Brandon 18-1 over the two games.

Chad Hannah RIBALD RUSSIAN CLASSICS ' As much as the Hans ChriStian Anderson stories or the Mother Goose Rymes are classics, so too these little bits of Slavic folk-lol'e should share the same exalted position in world literature, and be read by anyone interested in the customs and cultures of other countries. The stories in this book are true gems of earthy humour that fairly sparkle with vigorous wit and worldly wonderment. Like the tale of an impecunious peasant whose only possession was a copious manhood. Or that little ditty about a young maiden who was convinced by ,a wily shepherd that she had jaundice of the bean and needed rubbing with a certain 'magical instrument'. The enigma of it all iS that thiS type of story should be deleted from any and all anthologies of ethnic folk-lore. We have our war-heroes and our good fairies and our poor-but-honest wood-cutters. But where are our philanderers? Where are our Eternity on the Other Night World upon world Shaft wide, warmed by bl'azen suns; Province of astronomical diScussion Dimension upon dimension Bounded by topologicaJ hypotheses Province of mathematical diSsertation.

L.S.Davis by Ken Conrad coquettes? Where are our triflers? Not dead, X-11 tell you. Old triflers never die; they just get more trifling. , So here is modern society labouring under the misc9nception that Russian peasantry was sex-less, when the final insult is hurled. Every ribald story from the Arctic Ocean to Mongolia is represented in a single book to the sex-sensitive Western eye, giving the equally false impression that Russian peasants were all satyrs. Why could these stories not have been blended in with the rest of that country's folk-lore? Because people think that sex is diny. The old Russ~ peasants didn't think that sex was dirty. They thought it was fun, and they laughed and joked about it. Poor Western society! No time for sex other than a few guilty thoughts or off-colour jokes or extra-marital affairs! No time to smile and have a good night's sleep. Yea suckers! Befleedon The day iS full of hells; Bright flames that lick and burn The edges of each hour.

Fewer than 100 miles away, Glendon College students' council calls for an assembly on the subject 'whether or not the president of this university has the intellectual integrity to discuss his views publicly.' At the same time, a Montreal daily newspaper predicts the University of Western Ontario, tom with student-faculty-administration discord over university government structures, could become Canada's Berkeley. In Calgary, 3,500 miles to the west, students at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology attack paternalism in an administration which forces them to attend 90 per cent of their classes and refuses to listen to their complaints about lack of adequate health services or residences at SAIT. University of British Columbia's awardwinning student newspaper, The Ubyssey announces it is 'tired of being irrelevant1 and adopts a radically-different political journal format. Meanwhile, a timid report notes that only one Canadian ca~pus possesses student health and psychiatric setvices that are on a par with U.S. facilities. The report, published by the Canadian Union of Students, warns of new discontent raging in student minds across the country. An editorial page in The Daily Ryersonian, student paper at Ryerson Polytechnical Institute, recommends that courses at the institute be extended to four years; supports student 'freedom' to take part in decision-making within the academic community and calls for cessation of U.s. bombing r~ids on North Vietnam. An effervescent McGill history professor named Launer LaPierre travels thousands of miles across Canada, telling students that Canadian universities are • ghettoes' and the students who attend them do little more than contemplate their navels while the world around them seethes with social injustice. And across the country. student councils hold superficial discussions on the problems of education, the social and economic barriers to post-secondary education in Canada and the inadequacies of university factories. Their un-structured rivals in student activism, the Student Union for Peace Action, hold a meeting and decides that more strUcture is needed in their protests. Most of this in one week. And all amid the politeness and bromides which are Canada's Centennial year. • All a manifestation of the Significant Sixties--an age of mods and miniskirts, a faraway war and continued poverty at home and abroad. This week, the campus hotspots are the University of Waterloo and Glendon College of York University. At Waterloo, students, council president Mike Sheppard has vowed to back up his council's resolution calling for open de- cision-making in his university community. . He and other council members were planning to show up at Thursday's (Jan. 19) board of governors meeting--in spite of protests from university president J .G. Hagey. In a letter to Sheppard, President Hagey said the student president's plan to attend the board meeting, with the student newspaper present, could jeopardize work being done by the joint senate-student committee on university government. This committee, which has three student representatives, was formed last term to study the Duff-Berdahl report on university government and to 'bring forward proposals for any desirable reforms of the e~ting strUcture of the government at the University of Waterloo'. Sheppard has denied the student federation is trying to alter board procedure, saying it is impossible to change the board" s structure without revealing its operations to the student body. And when the committee submits its report to the board of governors, debate on the subject will be closed. Sheppard said that while there is little immediate likelihood of an organized student strike being called to support student demands for the 'open-door policy', he warns that council won'tacceptcomprom.ise solu~ons and could call a strike if all methods of sober debate and negotiation fail. Student council members at Glendon College, another centre of campus ferment, are seriously examining the new Advisory Committee on Student Affairs there. The committee fell apart in November when student representatives from Glendon and York campuses refused to support the university president's 'closed-meeting' policy. However. President Ross set up another committee--termed a 'bastard committee', by council vice-president Rick Schultz-similar in every respect to the old one. 'He's Just set it up in the same way, thus making student representation on it impossible'. says council president Jim Macdonald. ~ Macdonald is now trying to establish a university-wide, student-faculty committee which he hopes will overshadow the ACSA and eventually advise the president on matters of student concern. Several faculty members have already indicated strong interest in this proposal. Macdonald and Schultz are fighting for a committee which will give students full representation in areas concerning them. Although council itself realizes secrecy is sometimes justifiable, it 'must be the exception rather than the rule', says Schultz. Rumors are already flying that students will strike if President Ross refuses to meet their demands. Meanwhile, Allan Offstein, former editor of Glendon's student newspaper, The Pro Tem, is blasting students for their 'apathy, silence and ignorance of their group power. CHINESE INTERVENTION IN VIETNAM by Sze-Chung Yuan !1 d ~ 0 .e d :h ~d id ld ed a. ly 1nd as (lat ras Year after year the war in Vietnam drags on. People throughout the world are anxious to have peace. Ways and means have been exhausted by many yet none has achieved anything positive toward that end so far. In fact, it would be much easier for the Allied Forces to win the Vietnam War than to conclude the Vietnam Peace. The basic truth is that the objective of the Viet-cong is to take over the whole country and to achieve political unity under Communistic rule. They would not settle for less. Now, an interesting question arises: Would the Vietcong win? In my opinion, theywould If the Allied Forces wouldn't. It has been considered by some people \hat the Chinese Communists would interene in the Vietnam War should it be estalated. The evah:ation is based on fallacy. llthough the Peking Government has asser~d again and again her determination to elp her Viet-cong brothers and to drive le 'imperialists' out of Vietnam, and issued ~peatedly warnings to the U.S. Government tat China would intervene, it is nothing ~re than a i:>luff.

As a result, the very issue led to an open split between the two Communist countries. General Douglas McArthur was right in his evaluation on the possibility of a Chinese intervention in Korea though the actual event proved him wrong as, if not because of Russian ambition, under no circumstances, would China have intervened in the Korean War. The situation in Vietnam is different. Russia can no longer play the same trick again on her Chinese Comrades. The Chinese Communists would not intervene in Vietnam provided the war is limited within the Vietnamese T errltory for reasons summarized as follows: 1. The Viet-cong are notpreparedtoaccept direct military assistance other than arms, equipment, materials and advisory groups from Red China or any other foreign country. They know that Chinese Intervention would hinder rather than help them to achieve their political aim, and if they do, they would lose public appeal. 2. The Korean War is too painful anexperience for the Chinese Communist Government to recall. 3. Red China is unable to carry on any military activity at present outside China because of economic difficulties and political chaos within the country.

Gross WASHINGTON, D.C.--The gap between moderate and radical opponents of the Viet Nam war was dramatized last week as student leaders across the co~ntry adopted divergent tactics to mobilize student opinion against American policy in Viet Nam. . While 100 • student body presidents and campus editors were sending a restrained letter to President Johnson expressing their anxiety and doubts about U.S. policy, 273 campus radicals met in Chicago to plan demonstrations on four or five selected campuses in April to protest the draft, the war, and 'campus complicity" with the war effort. The letter, which received front-page coverage in the December 30 New Yerk Times, initiated a campaign by moderates to make their stand against the war 'the majority position in the country,• according to United States National Student Association (USNSA) Vice President Edward Schwartz, who helped to gather signatures for the letter. The student body presidents told the President that increasing numbers of students are deeply troubled about the war and warned that 'unless this conflict can be eased, the United States will find some of her most loyal and courageous young people choosing to so to jail rather than to bear their country's arms.' The letter urged the President to clarify American objectives in Viet Nam so as to ease the fo1iowing student doubts about U.S. policy. •--that America's vital interests are sufficiently threatened in Viet Nam to necessitate the growing commitment there; --that such vital interests as may be threatened are best protected by this growing commitment; and --that a war which may devestate much of the countryside can lead to the stable and prosperous Viet Nam we once hoped our presence would help create.' In keeping with the moderate tone of the letter, the signers described themselves and many of their contemporaries as 'people as devoted to the Constitution, to the democratic process, and to law and order as were their fathers and brothers who served willingly in two World Wars and Korea.' The idea to send the letter grew out of a debate at last August's NSA Congress between moderate Allard K. Lowenstein. a former NSA president and radical David Harris, the Stanford University study body president. At that time Lowenstein suggested the letter in response to Harris' call for students to send their draft cards back to their local boards in protest against the war. The letter, Lowenstein said, would be a far more effective political tactic than demonstrations, which, he said, antagonize a large segment of the public. Although a first draft of the letter garnered more than 100 signatures at the Congress from student body presidents and vice-presidents, the students decided to set up a steering committee to write the letter and to attract more signatures. Although the revised version was partially completed by early November, committee members said they considered a Dec. 30 release, building on peace hopes arising from the Christmas andNewYear's truces, better timed. 'We didn't want it to look like an election gimmick,' steering committee chairman Abby Erdmann, a Smith College sophomore said; •... all the while we were hoping that something would happen that would make the letter unnecessary. Something .like a cessation in the bombings or a major shift in the Administration's policy.' While the moderates try to add further signatures to their letter, student radicals will be planning demonstrations on several camfuses in coordination with an April 15 mobilization' against the war in New York City and San Francisco. These tactics were set at the Dec. 29-30 National Conference for a Student Strike for Peace, held in Chicago, but the group did not announce which campuses were its targets. The radicals- urged students to take such actions as class boycotts, picketing, teach-ins or other demonstrations. Besides a student strike, the conference urged the following measures to radicalize student opinion against the war. --civil disobedience; --war tribunals, modeled after British philosopher Bertrand Russell's projected international court to President Johnson, Secretary of State Dean Rusk, and Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara for alleged 'war crimes'. STUDENT REPORTER FffiED FROM EXPO MONTREAL (CUP)--A student newspaperman who exposed discriminatory practices in hiring executive staff of the Expo youth pavillion has been fired from Expo 67's youth advisory council. Harvey Oberfield, arts 3 and a reporter at The Georgian, student paper at Sir George Williams University, was approached last year by the committee and offered the post of public information officer. He had previously written an article rallying support for the youth pavillion. But when 13 of 14 executive staff members appointed turned out to be French-Canadians, the reporter got off the Expo bandwagon. He then wrote a letter to a Montreal newspaper condemning this action as discriminatory, urging that action be taken to rectify further paid appointments. The matter was raised in the House of Commons, when Robert Coates (PC-Cumberland) questioned trade minister Robert Winters as to the validity of statements Oberfield made in his letter. The minister replied he would look into the matter, and later in the week, reported to the Commons that indeed 13 of the appointees were French-Canadian. But he maintained no discrimination was involved. • Meanwhile, Oberfield received a letter from the youth advisory committee informing him he has been sacked by a unanimous vote of the adviso committee. ~EITHER PRO-SHARP NOR PRo-GOBDON' Hon. Robert Winters The Honourable Robert Winters, Minister of· Trade and Commerce, has denied that he is either leftist or rightist orientated. The former industrialist also added in an Argus interview: 'I think that I can be considered neither proSharp nor pro-Gordon'. 'I consider myself proWinters'. Speaking onRedChina'sadmittance into the United Nations, Winters hinted that personally he was in favour of such. But, he also added that Canadian acceptance was not feasible at this time because of our commitments to other Western nations. Folk-sinAer Helen O'Neill COFFEE HOUSE By Frank Shoemaker It's finally happened. It's been a fairly lon_g time since the Fourth Dimension closed its doors on Folkmusic and let the 'bubblegummers' take over the scene with high pitched guitars, and ~over-tone' rock, or as they prefer to call it 'Rhythm and Blues'. Now, after months and months of preparation a new coffee house has opened in Fort William, and in case r,ou don't know yet, it's called The Blue Flame'. a very appropriate name for a coffeehouse. The Blue Flame opened its doors officially as a coffeehouse last Monday night )Vith a sweet looking newcomer to Folk music; Helen O'Neill. Helen is a 23 year old brunette from Timmins. She taught before taking up the guitar. but discarded teaching as a lost cause. Although she was referred to as a relative newcomer to Folk music, that doesn't mean that some four years with various groups before she went on her own. She picked up the guitar about two years ago and has a distinctive fingerpicking style, comparable to that of Carolyn Hester or Tom Paxton. Helen has a beautiful voice which should make her a very successful folk-singer. With an easy ~ace she rambled through Many a Mile' by Pat Sky, 'Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound' by Tom Paxton, 'Changes' by Phil Ochs, 'Morning Town' by Malvina Reynolds, 'Reason to Believe• by Tim Hardin, and many more ballads that filled the night and created an atmosphere of easy relaxation. Helen has appeared at various hootenannies at the now famous Riverboat in To- A&W ·DRIVE-IN ronto as well as regular engagements at the Mousehole, The Village Corner and Steeles Tavern in Toronto. The Blue Flame •(in case you' re wondering) is located on Victoria Avenue, next to the St. Louis Hotel. Folkmusic starts at nine and finishes at one. The club has thrown out all the youngsters in an attempt to get the Senior High School and University students and those of 18 andovertocomeandmake this one coffeehouse their campus grounds. Helen is booked here until February 11, but there is a possibility that she will be held over an -additional week. r------""!"""'""""""""""--' ., ' HERTZ ,., -~.. '\, .....

A telex machine will provide instant communication with just about everybody, a polaroid r'il.mera for instant pictures of just about anything, a tape recorder for instant notes, and electric typewriters for instant genius. Our chronically bare office is now equipped to function as a business of its size should. Tools we got, but not bodies. Impending exams are taking their toll on our staff. There will be only four more editions of the ARGUS before exams. Surely there must be some ghosts who have been haunting the library all year and now feel that they can take some time to do something. Well, the ARGUS has lots for them to do.

Next month, Branco will hand over power to Marshal Costa e Silva. At the same time a new constitution will take' effect--a constitution which attempts to legalize the de facto administration which took office after the 1964 coup. Important points of the next constitution include the indirect election of the president by an electoral college; the judgement of civilians by military court; the authorization of the president to sign emergency decrees; the delegation of some legislative powers to the executive; and a referendum for constitutional amendment required by the president but rejected by congress; exclusive presidential powers over finance laws; and loss of political rights for those who attempt to subvert the •democratic regime•. In short, the constitution asserts the unchallengeable authority of the military. Criticism of the constitution is widespread, even among those who support the general aims of the government, partic1 larly at the way the constitution was bul dozed through congress--the president o: dered congress to approve the constitutic by January 24th so that it could becon law in time for the change in governmer There is also great uneasiness about tl increasing powers of the military--an w easiness hardly lessened by the fact th just before Christmas the president intrc duced a bill restricting certain press 1 berties.

A certain gentleman of the SAS who set up sixteen 9-man broomball teams handed them in to Mr. Shannon and since then the square root of sweet essence has been done to bring the schedule into action on the rink. According to Mr. Shannon no one is interested and yet, every Tuesday and Thursday aftemoon there are members of these teams willing to play but the rink bas been covered with snow. But Mr. Shannon is an honourable man. This year the Athletic Department set up a new intramural sports program with the new addition of hockey but there is only a broomball rink constructed, if you want to kill yourself on that ice surface.

I'EE (OR) PAGE 3 By Colleen Cupples and Owen Marks HOW THE ADMINISTRATION TRIES TO PREVENT STUDENT RIOTS Students across Canada are starting to break out of their self-imp'.>sed characterizations as faceless nonentities in a sterile university environment, and are demanding a voice in university government decision making. Groups at Queen's, Montreal, Saskatoon, Manitoba, Western Ontario and Victoria have requested, and are receiving representation on the administration's policymaking bodies, whether they be faculty bodies or actual senates. Of course, the representations at this writing are discouragingly small (for example, 2 students on a senate composed of 70 members in Montreal), but students are still frustrated enough to demand more than the token condescencions of their elders. John Patrick, students' council president at U. W.0., commenting on his senate's decision to allow one student observer to its meetings, stated, 'It is a very, very disheartening • situation.' Patrick says he feels the board hasn't realized the council's main contention that all university members should participate in its government. This is the basic problem of most progressive student leaders. These protestations from across Canada are the result of student unrest, linked with frustration in their attempts to gain a genuine control in their universities' affairs. Naturally enough, a representation of 2 students on a board of 70 other members will not gain this. It is, however, a stan. At Lakehead there is a small council known as the University Committee. Seated on this council are seven administrators and seven students. It is at these irregularly held meetings t:1!,at students and administrators discuss anything ranging from bus commuter service to tuitions, from Slavic studies to medical services. In this way it is hoped the students may have a genuine representation in the policymaking areas of the university. Ideally the students and administrators are able to work out any problems and then take their recommendations to the Senate or the Board of Governors, where they are voted upon. This system works only if students are seated who know what they are talking about, and don't sit under the table, willing to accept every suggestion from the other seven members from the administration. The ARGUS endeavoured to interview a representative sample of the members of the University Committee, and to determine how satisfied/ dissatisfied the Committee members were with the system. Dean of Students, John Kerr, felt that student representation on the Senate was not the best strategy if our students wanted to have some part in policy-making. In view of the fact that a situation such as that of the 2/70 ratio at the University of Montreal would likely occur, if our students were seated on the Senate, he said that they would probably serve more effectively on committees of the policymaking bodies, rather than on such bodies per se. As for our own University Committee, Dean Kerr said that, 'It hasn't yet reached its potential; but we should all work industriously to ensure that it does.' He said that student observers at Senate meetings wouldn't serve the purpose desired, but he strongly felt that the press shouldbepre- Representation • Ill Sight WINNIPEG (CUP)--The University of Manitoba may soon join a growing group of Canadian universities which have succeeded in gaining student representation on university governing bodies. _ - Friday (Feb. 3) -the University Colle_ge Faculty Council, which governs U of M's third largest faculty, passed a motion to give students six seats on the council. The decision, which received almost unanimous approval from the council, Will go before the board of governors Feb. 16. If the board approves the motion, it Will be the first time U of M students have participated in administrative decision making. , College provost Murray Donnelly said ~e would ••• like to hear what the students will have to say. Donnelly declined to comment on the boarct s possible decision, saying, •~ don't predict things like this. I wait for them to happen. OVER 21comeCLUB individually and meet On January 14 the first meeting of the Over 21 Club was held in the senior lounge. Judging by the attendance then and on F ebrua:cy 4 the senior students don,t seem to be aware of the purpose of this event which is being sponsored by a group of senior students. The club was initiated to provide the more than 500 L.U. students who are over 21 with an evening to them.selves; where they can relax in an atmosphere which is primarily intellectual. It is meant to provide a forum for the discussion and exchange of ideas and the opportunity to develop attitudes and responsibilities of a univer-sity flavour. The students and faculty are encouraged to others. After they become acquainted, the members will be expected to plan the activities of the club, which will be the only organization with licensed premises on campus, and as such will be preserved as a senior function. It is hoped that the programme will be varied by using folk singers, speakers, films, and dancing. The evenings are operated on a cost basis to ease the expense pressure on members. The faculty is expected to provide a good deal of the food for thought. The organi.Zation is also looking for a new name - one that will reflect the sophisticated atmosphere that is intended. sent at the Committee meetings, and that this was likely to occur as the Committee evolved. In regards to student representation on the Senate of any Canadian universities, Kerr doubted whether any university was ready for such a measure. Mr. Joseph St. Amand, President for University Schools on the A.M.S. council, commenting on the Committee, said, 'I think it's great. It's something a lot of other schools don't have. You have to rememberthatwe're dealing With the top J>eople in the administration. Mr. St. Amand did not feel that students at Lakehead were experienced enough as yet to have an actual seat in the Senate. 'When they know what they're really talking about, I think it will be time for student representation in the Senate. Right now, I think it's better if we can try at our own level in order that we can alleviate the problems. An Associate Professor of Botany, and member of the Senate, Mr. D. Lindsay, thought that student representation on the Senate must be carefully considered. He didn't think that at this time the students at Lakehead were capable of maturely handling the problems discussed by the Senate. Mr. Lindsay also said that 'even most academics take at least one year to get accustomed to the workings of the Senate.' Because of this difficulty, he believed that in certain fields, the University Committee may be more useful than representation on the Senate. Mr. Doug Robson, first year Business Administration, and another student on the Committee, felt that this body was a good idea, but was perhaps not enough. 'What we need besides this Committee is actual seating on the Senate, so that they can get the real student viewpoint on this campus, firstha nd -' Speaking on student participation in the Senate, Mr. D. Margan, Director of Finance, stated that he felt it would be a good thin~, but since he himself didn t sit on the Senate, his opinions weren't informed. One ofthe shortcomings of the Committee, he thought, was that it lacked representation from the Board of Governors; in fact 'they are the poorer for not being represented on the Committee.' Dr. W.Tamblyn, Lakehead's President and chairman of both the Senate and the University Committee, said, 'I think that matters of student concern may be dealt with far more effectively in bodies such as the Committee. They help to develop a good university atmosphere and even better student-administration communications.' He added that personally he favoured appointment of a student observer at some Senate meetings, but he didn't think that at this time it was feasible from the students' viewpoint to have an actual voting membership. The President of the Alma Mater Society, Wayne Tocher!, was somewhat less than completely satisfied with the Committee, though. 'It's a good first step since many beneficial constructive things have come out. But the Committee does not have the formal power to state opinion where it really counts. Remember it's only the third highest body in the University.'

TAKES DOUBLE· High scorer Holmstrom after a field goal Cambrian College of Sault Ste Marie, Ontario travelled to the Lakehead for two basketball games over the weekend and came out on the short end of both scores. In the first game played Saturday night in the Hammarskjold gymnasium the Nor'W esters defeated Cambrian 63-43 while Sunday's game had Lakehead University winningbya 73-60count. The first game started off very badly with neither team able to hit the basket with any consistency. The score at the end of this dismal first half was 20-20 with Lakehead University scoring only seven out of· forty ...four attempted field goals and hitting only two of eight free throws. Thesecond half saw two changed teams take the floor as Lakehead University hit seven out of eight field goals and Cambrian hit seven out of ten in the first five minutes of play. At this point the roof fell in for Cambrian as both Fletcher and Barber fouled out. Nor'Westers then took complete charge as they raced the score up to a 6343 final. For Cambrian the high scorers were Fletcher and Plaskett with 12 each and Kommsaar with 8. For the Nor'Westers Holmstrom scored 19 followedbyElvinand Kostyahyn with 10 each. The second game played Sunday was a much better game of basketball with both teams trading baskets throughout. The Nor'Westers led ·34 to 26 at the end of the first half and never looked back as they went on to defeat Cambrian by a score of 73 to 60. Fletcher, Cambrian' s high scoring centre, had the best single effort of any indivi.. dual opponent the Nor' Westers have faced this year as he led both teams with a fine 30 point effort. Paul Barber was the only other Cambrian player to score in the double figures as he hooped 16 points. Don Holmstrom again led the Nor'Westers with 23 points followed by George Kostyahyn with 16 and Jim Johnson with 9.

Coach Henry Akervall' s strategy of reuniting the •s• line paid off as Smith, Siciliano and Stirrett picked up sixteen scoring points in the two game series. All three Lakehead University forward units followed the plan to near perfection as they continually harassed the Bemidji attack with a strong forechecking game.

It opened last night and continues this Friday and Saturday, Feb. 17 and 18. Thurber's play contains a number of fast-paced review sketches based on his short stories and essays. His very American type of humour exposes the foibles of man's day-dreams, cocktail parties, and most of all, that menace to civilization; --the AMERICAN WOMAN. As usual in recent years, the Players have involved a number of University personnel in the production. Professors Wesley and Allan are in the cast along with first--year Arts student, Simon Hoad.

The teams traded a pair of goals in the first period as Dwight Stirrett and Clare Battison found the mark for L.U. only to have Anderson and Rand tie it up.

Pudge Hamilton, playing in his first league game re-placed Kaz Miyata in the L.U. net after the first period and blanked the Beavers over the final two frames. Fourteen penalties were handed out by referee Bill McKenzie. In Sunday's game L.U. jumped to a 4--1 Iead by the 10 minute mark of the second period only to have Bemidji fire four consecutive goals and take a 5-4 lead early in the third period.

This is a finding of a Report on Health and Psychiatric Services on Canadian Campuses by UBC's Dr. Conrad Schwarz which examines the whole range of medical services available to the Canadian student. The facilities at Lakehead University stand far down the list. There is no professional Student Health Service this year but plans call for the establishment of such a service next year. The availability of two first aid men was recently announced by the custodial department. A psychiatric service was started in 1965. It consists of one consulting psychia- trist who gives two halfdays per month to the assessment of students but no treatment facilities are available. The 'Schwarz' Report, which was published early in 1967 by the Canadian Union of Students, shows that while 77 .5% of Canadian campuses have some kind of health service, only 44. 9% provide any sort of psychiatric service. Schwarz points out that the signs of student unrest so often noted by university administrators and government officials, are very often a result of the student's search for identity. He states that in late adolescence 'the average university student is still engaged in... the complex process by which (he) defines those values, standdards and attitudes which will give him a reasonably consistent approach to the responsibliities of adult life ciety which has replaced the in the particular society in old order, and the student which he chooses to live.' dissatisfaction with the inThe report suggests that du- creasing bureaucracy of the ring his university career educational process have a studentneedstohave'mea- 'led to a widening gap beningful relationships which tween faculty and students'. will help him define himself This has meant that students as a total person' in order have for the most part to successfully complete this stopped talking to their professors about personal promaturation process.

'I am disturbed at the approach the RCMP uses--seeking interviews on a personal basis with people who are obvious:.. ly selected for the position they hold,• Ward said in a prepared statement, Tuesday. 'It is entirely possible that youth leaders provide information in a manner quite contrarr to the knowledge or wishes of the people who elect them . CUS raised the issue Monday by asking Prime Minister Pearson 'to protest strong1i.': the covered intrusion of the CIA' into CUS affairs and to provide assurance that the RCMP is not engaged in any similar operation•. Asked why CUS made the statement, Ward replied, 'My prime concern is that students do not become involved in a network of information over which they have no future control'. In 1965 and 1966, CUS receivedtwin$1500payments from the Foundation of Youth and Student Affairs, an alleged CIA front organization. The money went towards financing two student conferences, Ward explained, and at notimedidFYSA or the CIA attempt to influence the course the meetings took. Ward described as 'friendly an interview last summer with an RCMP officer held at CUS headquarters. A request from Ward that the talk be'consideredpublicand non-confidential' was met by the RCMP. 'In addition to expressing interest in receiving information on the tradition topic, Eastern European Student Politics, the officer mentioned that he was particuarly interested in knowing about subversion in Canada. 'I refused to involve myself or the Union in such activities• Ward said. 'Since then there has been no further contact from the RCMP'. Reporters zeroed in on other possible CIA payments to CUS, but Ward maintained that except for the two FYSA grants, there was only an indirect grant from FYSA to World Assembly of Youth to CUS. Ward travelled to a number of international student conferences. '! A_>;! """ lcnnw tn whAt extent our ex~rience has been duplicated around the country', he said, But I should hope that it will come clear in the next few days•. Ward expressed dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister• s refusal Monday to protest formally the CIA' s 'covered intrusion• into CUS affairs. 'I don,t believe it (Mr. • Pearson's statement) is very satisfactory: FEBRUARY 24, 1967 US GEN.-SEC. -CUS SUSPECTED PORT ARTHUR (CUP) - The general secretary of World University Service of Canada has expressed surprise that executive members of CUS were not aware that they were receiving CIA funds in 1965 and 1966. 'To my personal lc.tlowledge, it was common gossip among the officers of CUS two or th ree years ago• . He added, 'I am' not referring to junior officers. I am referring to senior officers that would be involved in this sort of negotiation. CUS is perfectly aware who its officers were. If CUS prefers to remain quiet then I am not going to speak'. 'But I know one person for sure, I can be absolutely certain, knew or suspected that it (money) was coming from the CIA. It was common knowledge at the time that a lot of organizations were being helped by the Council of Students and Youth Affairs.' L.U. NOR'WESTERS •• LEAGUE CHAMPS -- SEE PAGE 4. Concerning the whole affair (one in which the Internatio1¥1l WUS was implicated), Mr. Mayer stated, A lot of fuss is being raised retrospectively over something which didn't seem to create much trouble at the time. I also think the criterian is not where the money came from but where it was spent.' But on the rumour of high CUS officers a few years ago facetiously joking about their CIA involvement Mayer said, 'At sort of outside meetings in social gatherings, people were making cracks about the CIA money being used. Now whether they had reason for making these cracks or whether they were just being faceteous I don• t know'. Mr Mayer went on to mention also that CIA funds partly financed the 1962 International Students Conference at Laval University, in Quebec City. Mr Mayer stated these opinions at an ARGUS interview on Tuesday, Februa,,., 21. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• OTTAWA (CUP) - 'Any speculation by student leaders as to the possible sources of NSA funds has always been just that-s~culation', Doug Ward said Wednesday. The stories about a rumour a lot of us have suspected the NSA received money from the US government for international activities and that the NSA had undue influence over the way US money was used to support international student activities. 'But to the best of my knowledge it has always been in the realm of rumours--a whole spectrum of rumour about where the money mi~t have come from•. Ward said, Mr Mayer is old enought to know the difference between rumour and reality and that rumour is not enough to go on. If Mayer knew definitely that the money came from the CIA, I am sorry he did not divulge it three years ago.' Paul Becker, a former WUS Vice-President and CUS Vice-President, backed up Ward, stating, 'There has never been any documentary evidence or statements by people who should know, linking the FYSA to the NSA and CIA'.

CUS past-president Pat Kenniff, contacted in Quebec City, said C US had applied for and received a grant from FYSA to sponsor two seminars on international affairs, one in 1964-65 and the other in 1965-60. CUS received about $1,500 from FYSA. • CUS President Doug Ward in Ottawa Sunday said, 'We figured they had a great interest in giving money to student organizations and since there is little money available in Canada, we applied for the grant.' Last week Ward denied CUS had received CIA money. Commenting on Winkler's allegations, Ward added, 'To the best of my knowledge, none of this money has ever been offered to CUS.' Kenniff denied too that any CIA funds other than the FYSA grant had been given to CUS during his tenure. TELEX INSTAI,I,ED EIGHT PAGES Both Ward and Kenniff said they hadn't known FYSA was connected with the CIA until last week, and Ward added, 'I don't think the CIA got very good value for their money•. David Jenkins, 1963-64 CUS President, contacted Sunday flight in Calgary, said during his year in office CUS had regular communications with the U.S. National Student Association, but that 'at no time was I aware that they were involved with the CIA: Ramparts Magazine revealed last week the NASA had been receiving large amounts of money from the CIA for the past 15 years. . The Times article also listed Crossroads Africa, World University Service, and the United States Student Press Association among 25 organizations receiving FYSA aid. USSPA Secretary Robert Gross _said his organization had received $2,900 from a CIA-affiliated foundation in the summer of 1965 to finance an Indian student working on a U.S. campus paper and a study of USSPA international programming. In the House of Commons last Friday, Mr. Winkler asked for an investigation to en-' sure the CIA and RCMP don't use students at Canadian universities to gather police intelligence. In reply, Defence Minister Paul Hellyer said he had no knowledge that students were engaged in undercover assignments for the C::IA, but promised to investigate. 'We didn't know the CIA was backing the NSA or the ISC (International Student Conference),' commented Richard Good, former CUS Vice-President, in Winnipeg. 'We had assumed the State Department was involved with the NSA and the NSA channeled funds to the ISC .' Good said the Canadian position has been that the ISC was being used as a tool for cold war politics, and one of the reasons for CIA support was to thwart the Communist-backed International Union of Students. The recent disclosures might lead to the ISC's demise, Good predicted.

We appreciate the effort and inconvenience to the library staff that is involved, but wonder what happens to the students who find it necessary to use the library Saturday afternoons when Sunday follows, as it has a habit of doing. Even if present library attendance on Saturday afternoon is not overwhelming, with pre-exam panic impending, Sunday openings will be justified shortly. The ARGUS recommends that the library staff look into the possibilities of making the reading-room facilities available to students on Sunday afternoon from 12 to 5 p.m. cl is hope for an ev~ntual stable educat1011 system. Nevertheless, what stimulated the Strilc From where did the force come to instigl: this rising action? A Parent Commissi assigned in 1961 to investigate the arcru educational system in the province, I prepared numerous briefs. Its findings ha concluded, that the majority of teache need upgrading.

The answer lies mature mediation and compromise, viJ ingrediants if a permanent •solution isl be reached. _ No, this article has nothing to do with Confederation difficulties nor the FrenchEnglish conflict. It is simply a presentation of internal educational problems: the French-English Catholic Teacher's Strike. The Quebec government has passed a form of legislation with wHich the adjective, remedial is undoubtedly associated. Remedial legislation has always been repugnant; a policy of •sunny ways', reechoing Wilfird Laurier•s phrase seems to be more agreeable. But there is no doubt that without this perhaps appropriate action taken by Daniel Johnson• s Union Nationale Party, the strike would have been interminable. No hope of agreement was apparent. Parent groups and high school and university students tried to act as substitutes while the teachers were on strike. Nonetheless, this temporary set up was insufficient. Unequivocally, the school children were falling behind; they, in the long run, would be the ones to suffer. True, the teachers have valid points of contention--particularly in their demands for better pay and working conditions--but had the teachers' unions not called a strike the provincial government might have been more receptive. • Incidently, the government's legislation or Bill 25 which prohibits further strikes until 1968 also proposed the establishment of a system of collective bargaining on a provincial scale. The government will probably use the latter clause to support its action explicitly. In it, perhaps there 24, 1967, Volume 1, no. XIII, Port Arthur.

The fact that the ARGUS staff and the AMS executive have frequently been on the outs is common knowledge, but on our part at least, there has been a sometime admiration for a difficult job competently done. We realize that positions on the AMS executive are second in order of difficulty at this university, (the most difficult being the positions of ARGUS staffers), and although these offices are overrated, the persons who s0erved in these capacities this year have risked their academic year, not to mention life and limb, to serve the student body. What was in it for them? Certainly not monetary gain-the honoraria would scarcely pay for the spirits necessary to aid in a temporary escape from office duties. Surely it can't have been the appeal of a mad social whirl. Working late at night and on weekends isn't the sort of mad social whirl one usually thinks of. We are at a lo~s to determine just why they did run, but once elected, our executive have, to the best of their abilities, devoted themselves to that nebulous thing called the students' interest. One final suggestion. Now that the executive are turning over their offices, to the new executive, with all that free time on their hands, the ARGUS is willing to accept any literary efforts they might like to busy themselves with. Next week we will offer equal space to the outgoing executive to allow them to pat the ARGUS on the back .

The programs exchanged were o f excellent quality and, speaking for UMD. the show was thoroughly enjoyed by all. We hope that this exchange, or others of this type, will become an annual event. No~ only were the Lakehead students who participated in the program excellent entertainers, but fine representatives of your university as well. Our students and yours have had a chance to make contact through a mutual interest in the arts: the exchange finishes on a note of mutual friendships and a hope that the friendships begun will have a chance to continue. Special recognition goes to Morley Mitchell and Ian Thompson, who were responsible for Lakehead' s part in the exchange. The members of Insurgency Theatre Troupe wish to extend special thanks to the students who supplied housing, and to Alida and Gus, who supplied technical assistance for the performance.

FEBRUARY 24, 19 U.S. STUDENT GROUPS LINKED WITH aA Washington, DC (CUP)--Three more college student groups were linked Wednesday to undercover financial backing by the United States Central Intelligence Agency. As the controversy mushroomed, a Congressman said military draft deferments have been granted leaders of one group. But the CIA remained silent about a report in a Washington newspaper that it was giving financial aid to three other student organizations in addition to the National Student Association, the largest student organization in the US. The Evening Star identified the three other groups as the US Youth Council with head.quarters in New York, the World Assembly of Youth in Brussels, and the International Student Conference in Leyden, Netherlands. Tuesday the government acknowledged the NSA · had been receiving funds from the American espionage agency for more than a decade. Thus the ISC, which is American-backed, is by implication receiving financial support from the CIA. But confirmation or denial of CIA involvement with the two other student groups has not been forthcoming. The draft deferment disclosure occurred when Democrat Robert W. Kastenmeier said he had information that top NSA officers automatically received a 2-A occupational deferment from the selective service board. 'It goes with the job,' said Mr. Kastenmeier, -one of eight House of Representatives members who called on President Johnson to order an inquiry 'at the highest level' of the NSA-CIA link. But a Selective Service spokesman denied Mr. Kastenmeier's charge, saying he knew of no special treatment for National Student Association officers.

(CUP) --The American State Department revealed Tuesday (Feb. 14) that the Central Intelligence Agency has been a secret financial backer of the United States' largest student organization for more than 10 years. The disclosure has threat-ened the future of the National Student Association, especially in the U.S.-backed International' Student Conference, and has promised a new storm in academic circles and in Congress over the spy agency's operations. The NSA plays a prominent role in the ISC, the American counterpart of the Russian-dominated International Union of Students. By accepting CIA funds, the American student associa•tion is by implication under CIA control, and thus a mouthpiece for the CIA instead of the voice for the one million American college students it represents. But Capitol Hill sources familiar with CIA activities said privately they were aware of the CI.A-NSA financial ties and the State Department indicated the relationship was approved "at the high levels of government•. NSA president Eugene Groves revealed the financial connection after Ramparts magazine said in news- it would expose •how the CIA has infiltrated andsubverted the world of American stu- ' dent leaders". •The relationship apparently originated because the Central Intelligence Agency believed that a strong American national union of students acting internationally (in the ISC) was in the national interest,• the 23-year-old Groves said. CUS has associate membership status and no vote in both the International Student Conference and the International Union of Students. Student organizations of this type have been made • conscious instruments of a rather pathetic cold war,• the CUS chief said. A year ago, Jim Laxer, then the president of Canadian University Press, was the first to say the NSA received funds from sources other than its 287 member schools. The NSA raises •the bulk of its annual budget of several hundred thousanddollars from American foundations and even from the American government,• Laxer wrote in a feature at that time. He did not identify the CIA as the government agency giving the NSA a financial boost. lete attitude, what is needed is recognition that the student is also the leading critic of university and society. . Because the student is not yet absorbed into the institutions of society and not yet fully awareofhowfactscompromise ideals, he is in the best position to cast a skeptical eye on the pretensions of educators and other decisionmakers. To share power is to share responsibility. If students · were to receive a vote as well as a voice in the affairs o f university and society, they could no longer serve as independent critics. But if they are denied both a vote and a voice, then they can only return to the role of .passive consumers--or become social revolutionaries.

The initial projects consist of three additional floors for the library, a Science-Technology building to be called the Centennial Building, and a fieldhouse. The first evidence of work beginning will be the deactivating of the parking lot to the west of the University Centre. A count of cars parking on campus indi'cates that there will be sufficient parking area in the new lot to accommodate the displaced parkers. At the same tilne the road servicing that lot will be closed and all traffic will be forced to use the road which runs on the east side of the library. The three major projects will be serviced from a central Boiler House which will necessitate considerable underground development and will lead to a partial land- Schwartz Report Blasted scape programme. In view of the fact that the Centennial Building, with its power house, is such a large project it was decided to call tenders for a Management Contractor to act as an agent of the University for this project only. The successful bidder was Barnett-McQueen Co., Ltd. of the Lakehead. Their main duties will be scheduling, expediting, cost control, and gen~ral coordination of all the contractors who work on that building. It will be a five story structure with connection to the University Centre and will be located in the area west of the Centre. Tenders were calledand the contract let to BirdConstruction for the addition of three stories to the library building. Work on this project is to start immediately. Construction traffic will of necessity use the same road as all university traffic. The general contract fol the Athletic Building will be tendered on the 20th and con, struction should start abou the middle of March. It wil be located across the rivei to the west of the ptesen campus so the constructioJ traffic should cause littlt disruption. Mr. Claude Smith, Direc, tor of planning has calledfol the cooperation of all thE people on campus, includini the contractors, to bear witl the disorder which migh be caused.

M O to r • Mitchell pposition s reinstatement was spearheaded by AMS Chief Justice, Peter Rusak, and President Wayne Tocheri, who both brought to the attention of Council members the fact that Mitchell had missed eight of the fourteen AMS meetings. 'This is not a very enviable record,' said Tocheri. But Mitchell said he had good reason for his record of absenteeism. His 'reasonable reason' stemmed from the fact that he was forced to miss two meetings because of preparation for the Arts Folk Festival, three meetings to act as provisional head of the Housing Bureau, two meetings because of illness, and one meeting because of an accident. He MORLEY MITCH ELL added· that he had told Mr. Tocheri of the reasons for his missing the meetings.

ELECTION WRAP-UP SIJLPHBB GETS HIS reeommemlatw,u JI088M After a short three month delay, Council has finally passed Mr. Dave Sulpher's honoraria recommendations. At the meeting of the 27th, Council members passed the following recommendations: AMS President $ 300 AMS Treasurer $300 AMS Vice-President $225 AMS Secretary $175 Society Presidents $ 50 Yearbook Editor '67 $150 '68 $150 Argus Editor-in-chief $250 Argus Co-editors '67 $100 Chief Justice $ 75 C US Chairman - to be set by AMS Council at the end of his term in office AMS Councillors - AMS Cards Mr. Sulpher' s only comment on the AMS action towards his recommendations was, 'Table, table, table, that's all I ever heard!' Council members threw out a plea from the ARGUS for a payment of $200 for ARGUS staffers other than the editor - in - chief for next year. FLASH---AMS Council voted itself three hundred dollars for a THANK YOU AMS party at the end of this year. With 448 votes Peter Young was swept to a virtual landslide victory in voting for the AMS executive last week. Julie Wierzbicki picked up 236 votes, mostly from her home faculty of Arts. Doug Robson grabbed the Vice-Presidency by a respectable margin and Don Lees squeaked past Bill Weiler by 14 votes to take the Treasurership. Wendy Ticknor defeated Joan Stuart by more than 100 votes to clinch the position of Secretary. The percentage of students voting was well over 60%, a tremendous turnout in comparison to other campuses. About 70% of artsmen, over 50% of Science Students, 60% from University Schools, and 55% of the Diploma Nurses voted. . In the race for President, the candidates were fairly close after the ArtsScience-Commerce votes were in, with Young holding a lead of less than 100 votes. The University Schools and nurses, however, gave Mr. Young over threequarters of their votes to build his majority to over 200. Doug Robson held a consistent lead over his rival, Ted Walker, but surprisingly had a smaller margin in his own faculty than in Mr. Walker's. Voting for this position was significantly less than for the others. Only 659 of 7 41 voters made a choice for the position of Vice-President. By far the most exciting race was the contest ·between Lees and Weiler. When the Arts-Science-Commerce votes were in Mr. Weiler held a slim 21 vote lead. The University Schools vote swung the advantage to a 10 point lead for Lees and the Nurses extended this to 14. Miss Ticknor achieved strong majorities in every faculty but nursing where Joan Stuart, her opponent almost doubled Miss Ticknor' s score. All the winning candidates expressed satisfaction with the executive they will be working with and admitted that all the campaigns were hard-fought with no victories assured until the official announcement. ~~ If~\~~~ 1//1('. 0 ~ .a .~'"/~ ,e' _.A I Pres.

I think that a lot of them really try. It's not just the professor's fault - it is also the students' fault. Most students want teachers as a separate entity because that's the way they were brought up in high school. This is true especially with the first year students. But I think by the time you get into third year most of the students start relating to the profs. better. WAYNE AITKEN, Bus.Ad. II 1 No, I don't. I think there is a lot of room for improvement, both in the classrooms and in the cafeteria. Discussions should involve not only academic but social problems. MARY McVICAR, Arts II Communications between students and professors de.. pend partly on both. Some profs. are very interestedin the student and with them one can discuss certain problems. Others aren'tveryap.. proachable. Of course there· are students who don't care either. MARY REKSZYNSKI,Arts II No, not enough. Most of my professors get their ideas across qUite well in class, but discussions are rather formal. I don't know how you could encourage more informal communication but I think it would depend on both teacher and student . , meeting each other halfway. ICHARD BOZYNSKI, Sci- ence (Nur) I Yes, I 'would say that the professors as a general rule are communicating with the students; to my experience they are quite willing to help if requested. TOM GROULX, Ans II In the classrooms yes, the cafeteria one doesn• t see too much of them. But I would say that Lakehead University is still above the par because of its smaller size. �WPAGENINE POET ln tle dusk preceding darkness, black laces and brown suede shoes with open books and Russian music filling the air, aided by pipe smoke And empty walls covered by newspaper clippings of death to be laughed at Clocks with empty faces tell the time, and there is a cup with coffee dregs in the bottom There is only one light and even it is dim like the thoughts screwed up and thrown into the waste-basket And there is German here: So komme, was da kommen mag: So Lang du lebest, ist es Tag ... lch seh dein lie bes An gesicht, lch sehe die Schatten der Zukunft nicht. by Fiorito He looks a kindly grandfather, white sidewhiskers, wispy white hair, gentle manner.

L.U. lost their first game Friday night 61-40 to the host Regina team. They then beat the Cougars from Mount Royal Junior College in Calgary, 58-49 Saturday afternoon. This was the first intercollegiate victory for a L.U. basketball team away from home in its short history. Saturday evening the L.U. hoopsters were upset by the University of Saskatchewan Huskies 48-42 for the consolation championship. Jim Johnson played his best games of the season during the tourney. Don Holmstrom, Lakehead' s high scoring forward, was chosen as a first team all-star on the an.. tournament squad.

ROMANUSSTARANZAK PENNY CONNOR ~ CLIJB Eight years ago the Lakehead Chess Club was founded on the premises of the Northwestern Ontario Regional Library. It led an adventuresome life moving to downtown Fort William in recent years. Last year the Club was reorganized in order that students on campus might enjoy chess also. The Club is run entirely by the students. The ·elected executive consists of: President-Romanus Staranzak, Vice President -- Rene Larson, Secretary- treasurer--Penny Connor and Counselor-Andy Sitarik. Dr. Tamblyn serves as honorary president while Prof. D.D. Sudar is trustee. If you feel you have that aggressive, fighting instinct drop by the chess tunnel and defeat a few friends. Even if you feel you lack that spirit drop by anyways, study the chess players there, and try to imitate their devil-maycare attitude. If you do not know how to play, be assured that learning is quick and easy. A ten ye?,r old can learn in ten minutes. It will of course take slightly longer for university students, say up to fifteen minutes. The Chess Club plans to have D.A. Yanafsky, the Canadian Chess Champion here, live and in person at the university on March 18, to play forty players simultaneously. Remember, happiness is winning a game of chess.

The seminar is part of the Second Century Week programme being held on the University of Alberta's Edmonton campus. 'Literature in the Second Century' is the theme of this unique five day seminar. It will mark the first time that Canada's foremost authors, poets, and critics will meet together with students to discuss themselves, their writings, and their country. A. W. Purdy, Earl Birney, and James Reaney are among the speakers participating. The girls will leave on March 6, accompanied by their faculty advisor, Mr. J. Brigham. A back door opened Saturday for the second time in two weeks for hockey's Alberta Golden Bears. The best scoring record in the west allowed the secondranked Bears to join basketball's Windsor Lancers and British Columbia Thunderbirds as teams named at the weekend to compete in the National Collegiate Championships March 5-11 at Olympiad •67 in Edmonton and Calgary. A 6-5 victory at home Saturday over Manitoba gave Alberta a first place tie with Saskatchewan in Westem Conference final standings. An 11 point advantage in points for-and-against gave Alberta its second straight league championship. Alberta failed Friday to win the title on points when they were dumped 6-3 bythe Bisons.

The top-rated team in hockey, Toronto Varsity Blues, were forced to close their regular season in Toronto Friday with a 4-4 tie against Montreal. Toronto won 14 and lost one of their other league games. The Blues, who seek a second straight national championship, will join Waterloo, Western Ontario and Queen's next weekend in Toronto to decide the OAA' s representative to Olympiad '67.

The lecture will be held in the University Theatre at 7:45 p.m. The public is invited. Lecture Series Chairman Dr. John Rideout expressed pleasure at being able to present Mr. Taylor at such a crucial time in the political development of China and India. Mr. Taylor is an expert on both countries and will discuss the recent elections in India and the major con- frontations in China during his lecture, drawing contrasts and comparisons between the two countries. Now a member of the Globe and Mail's editorial Board, Mr. Taylor travelled thruout India last November and December on special assignment. His comments appeared in atwo-partpre-election analysis in the Globe weekend section in February. Mr. Taylor was the Far Eastern Correspondent for the Globe from 1962 until 1965. Based in Hong Kong for the first 18 months, he covered China and also visited Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and South Vietnam. He was then based in Peking for the last 18 months, as one of four resident' correspondents from the West and the only North American. He travelled widely in China, visiting Canton, Shanghai, Nanking, Hanchow, Tainan, Kunming, Taiyuan, Sian, Yenan, Anshan, Loyang, Shenyang, Changchun and Harbin. He revisted South Viet Nam in November and December of 1965. His first book, Reporter in Red China was published by Random House of New York in 1966.

The Cultural Revolution in North America is the major theme of the discussion group, which has been set up until the end of the year. Under the sponsorship of Mr. J.D. Harding of the Psychology department, the discussjons have been concerned with such concepts as freedom and change. The 'Revolution', Mr. Harding feels, is manifested by young people who are striving for a more meaningful existence in terms of human, rather than material values. If you decide to leave your cardplaying, or coffee cups, you will be welcomed with open arms. Arr,w, Poll JIM PURCELL PRESENTS CHEQUE to MR. ROY McKEE.

The clubs involved were the Fort Wil11am - Port Arthur Kiwanis Club, Westfort Kiwanis Club, • Circle K from United College in Winnipeg, and the Lakehead University Circle K. Head table guests included President Tamblyn and Jack Evans, Kiwanis Lleute. nant Governor of Division I, Western Canada. Following • the business meeting which featured the presentation of a cheque from Lakehead U. Circle K to the Kiwanis Crippled Children Fund, Dean Kerr delivered an informative message pertaining to education. The evening was completed with a tour of the University. ----------- 8-Ballers Lead Clarkes Clippers defeated the Lakehead University Nor'Westers 65-62 Monday for theirfirstwinofthebestof-five final to determine the champion of the Thunder Bay Men's Senior Basketball League.

For the Clarkes, Dave Moshenko and Wayne Chuchmuch played strong games. SUMMER EMPLOYMENT Results of our employment poll indicate that students are more interested in their summer jobs than in their sex lives as returns were generally complete and sincere. Male degree students seem to earn more, and expect more than diploma students. They are, however, more susceptable to unemployment. Degree students averaged almost two jobs per summer but made considerably more than those in the diploma courses. The females, surprisingly, had less UJ:!employment problems but this was small consolation in that they earned very little in the way of coin. Unless they want to pick up a pick and shovel their situation is unlikely to change. The last question, concerning the establishment of a private student placement office which would be concerned only with summer jobs, prompted many comments. The majority of responses expressed satisfaction with the Manpower services on campus. It was pointed out however, that only about 15% of summer jobs last year ~ere -found through this office and that it must be more concerned with placing graduates than with temporary work. Here are the results: Male Female deg dip 1. How many weeks were you unemployed last summer? 2.3 2.4 2.0 How manyweeksdidyouwork? 114.2 14.2 14.0 2. What was your net income last summer?

Tom Kelly The Screamers Dear Sirs, It appears to me that at the beginning of the year, 'the AMS held elections for AMS councillors whom they felt would represent the students to the best of their ability. Apparently, as the year· proceeds, a lot of s~udents feel they are being taken for a ride. Well, that is their tough luck. The voting at the polls was less~ than 40% - a tremenrJous turnout on behalf of the 'SCREAMERS'. The ORCUS conference was the first issue, and now it is the $3,000 -folk singing tour that was passed at the last AMS meeting which is raising hell. Either we put in councillors who will represent you (the majority), and shut up, or scrap the whole AMS. If there were more students thinking, instead of bitching, we would have a better student union. YOU people pay the AMS fee, so how about smartening up next year and voting, instead of sitting back and grumbling to the newspaper and filling out petitions. Quality or Quantity? Dear Editors: In your last edition of the ever popular ARGUS, you did a splendid write-upon the Nursing Degree students. Much to our dismay we began to see the light, in that WE seem to be the neglected ones. You seem to place more stress on the degree students than you do on us. We too are nurses and darn good ones at that, but why have we been left out? You've placed THEM on a glittering pedestal for all to look up to and where are we? Right at the bottom-- the lowest of the low. Aren't we just as important as THEY are? Don't OUR uniforms rate? Or for that matter, aren't we just as professional, if not . more, than the degree students? Why, then, all the favouritism? Why haven'twe been recognized for our position and status in this university? We do realize that we are only part time students but does that make us all the more insignificant? Man was created equal and we feel as important as they are. Our pride has been dama~ed because we feel that you ve given the majority ·a raw deal. How about giving the plain old nursing students, outside of the degree course, some acclamation? We think it's about time you showed some interest in usll 11 THE OTHER NURSING STUDENTS Foreign Ownership INTHECAFEl'EIIIA by Bryan Springgay This week's ,question: Do you think that the AMS should The problem of foreign inspend up to $3000 to subsidize the planned tour of vestment is one of the most American campuses by the Lakehead University Folk complex issues ever to face Spectacular? the Canadian people.

Thus, the nation cannot rely upon them to pursue an aggressive and expansionist foreign trade policy which will create jobs and a rising standard of living for future Canadians. Even more important than the economic dangers Canada presently faces are the political ones. American subsidiaries are prevented from trading with Cuba and other nations which the U.S. government deems undesirable. There always exists the danger that direct economic pressure would be brought to bear to force Canada into pursuing a policy deemed vital by the U.S. in foreign affairs. The- Canadian government should therefore take legislative action to cut down present American influence, and to hinder future American control of Canadian industry. The government can do this by encouragingbonded investment (loans) rather than the present system of equity investment. Secondly, the Canadian government should undertake the training of Canadians for the eventual replacement of foreign management by Canadian management. • To discourage foreign industries presently in Canada the government shouldabandon her present policy of giving subsidies to some foreign companies. Canada should also impose the strictest possible guidelines on subsidiaries of foreign owned companies operating in Canada to make sure that they are not politically controlled by their owner's governments. ••••••••••••••••• Judy Glover, Arts I Why do they want to do that?

M.W. BARTLEY Lakehead University has launched the most ambitious fund campaign ever ventured in Northwestern Ontario •.. a $3,100,500appealforpublic support of their vital expansion program. Although the announcement was officially made Wednesday, Dr. M.W. Bartley, Chairman of the Board of Governors, said that the Development Fund Committee had been quietly working behind the scenes since last 1 fall on the organiZation of the campaign. General Chairman of the Development Fund is Robert J. Prettie, Honorary Chairman is the University s Chancellor, Senator the Honorable Norman M. Paterson. Dr. Bartley stressed that, although the campaign goal was a challengingfigure it represented less than 15% of the University• s overall $22,695,000 expansion program announced in November. Generous Provincial Govern~ent grants will provide six dollars for every one dollar raised by the campaign. The Government's share of the program will amount to $17,705,500, the largest single grant ever made to Northwestern Ontario. The remaining $1,890,000 will be through CMHC mortgages on the new residences which are only partly covered under the grant system. Dr. Bartley expressed pleasure in the appointment of Mr. Prettie, President of Northern Wood Preservers as General Chairman CUS REP. VISITS L.U. Mr. John Cleveland, Executive Member at Large of the Canadian Union of Students, visited Lakehead University last weekend as part of a fact-finding tour of Canadian campuses. In Conference with the new A.M.S. executive on Sunday he defined the Societies• role in C US and outlined the planned and proposed changes in the Union. The structure of CUS, said Mr. Cleveland, has been too much compartmentalized on the indiVidual campuses as the C US chairman and his committee are often removed from council, the official C US body. For this reason the national CUS executive is encouraging some councils to carry CUS responsibilities directly, with an internal committee, rather than an external appointive group representing the Union. He pointed out the difficulties and proVided the rationale for the political and sociological approach to student concerns as adopted by C US in recent years. The major problem has been the basic apolitical nature of many students who do not realize the tremendous lobbying force implicit in a body representing more than one hundred thousand students. Commenting on the trend toward pro- PETITION CIRCULATING A petition is presently being circulated asking that the AMS Board of Trustees reject the proposal of the Council to allot up to $3,000.00 to cover the expenses of the Lakehead University Folk Spectacular. In a recent Argus interview, the formulator of the petition, Mr. BryannSpringgay, of Arts 11, stated that •1n principle the idea is very good; but the $3,000 that the folk singers are requesting is a bit ridiculous considering the fact that only fifteen singers are involved and only four of them are attending Lakehead at the present time.• When asked how the recent letter to the editors written by Tom Kelly, the organizer of the folk singing group, would affect the number of signatures on the petition, Mr. Springgay asserted that Mr. Kelly was accusing him without cause, for misrepresentation of the facts. Springgay added •The facts presented in the preamble of the petition are all true and although they may be slightly slanted in one direction, the people who sign the petition are perfectly aware of what they are doing--there is no question of the facts being misrepresented.• At press time signatures totalled 322. vincialiZation in h.is organization Cleveland bemoaned the duplication which would be involved but could see the advantages. The recently-formed Ontario Union of Students (see page 4), for example, will have considerably more drag at Queen• s Park than the National Headquarters in Ottawa. Concerning the universities which have pulled out of CUS, Mr. Cieveland pointed out that of the four, only Alberta and Memorial are •big'" campuses and that very special situations exist at those universities. The upcoming referendums at UBC and U of T, said Mr. Cleveland, are not a pressing problem at this time considering the several months which CUS has to conVince those universities that they shouldn't pull out. Mr. Cleveland is returning to Ottawa in preparation for the International Student Conference in Scotland next month. CUS will be present only as an observer at the conference where 20 countries will be represented by about 100 delegates. Discussion will revolve around a reassessment of the student role in setting selection and accessability standards for universities. Mr. Cleveland's - expenses will be paid , by UNESCO. FOUR PAGES SOCIETY EXEC CHOSEN A 50% turn-out at the polls last Friday elected Pentti Paularinne as Arts President in a yes-no vote. Bill Weiler defeated J eanetty Gall for the position of Arts Vice-President, and Kathy Buie was the successful treasurer candidate, winning out over Chad Hannah and John Lee. The election for secretary of Mary Rekszynski was also a result of a yes-no vote. Less than 25% of University Schools turned out to elect their officers. Robert Yatkowsky was the successful presidential candidate, defeating Carole Storey. The Vice-Presidential election went to George Paddington, over Dave Sulpher. Nonominations were submitted for the position of treasurer, and in a yes-no vote Barbara Lone won the position of secretary. The ARGUS noted last week the lack of competition for positions in the Science Society executive. This situation did not change, and by acclamation its officers are: President, Roland Paradis; Vice-President, Don Bergman; Treasurer, Fred Poulter; Secretary, Donna Inouye. A THI.ETIC .A WARDS SYSTEM SCRAPPED The entire SAS athletic awards system was radically revamped at Monday's Athletic Council meeting. The schelT!e for naming award winners as outlined in the athletic handbook "'Olympus• handed out at the start of the year has been scrapped. Onlr four days before tonight s Trophy Dance it was decided that the old plan had not worked out and that the most deserving athletes had been put at an unfair disadvantage. Mr. W. Shannon, Athletic Coordinater, pointed out that only one of three inter-collegiate athletes who had won top honours over athletes from other universities, and who had led their teams to conference championships, were even represented in the top twenty point-getters according to the system then in effect.

For some reasons the Liberals aren't telling us. Perhaps they don•tknow. Are Canadian forces to perform only a peace-keeping role and have combat capacity limited to non-nuclear operations, or are the forces intended to have full combat capability not only for the direct defense of Canada, but in particular within the present strategy of the NATO and NORAD alliances? Now we have to decide if integration will work with both of these roles or just one. or even none of them. The idea of unification is to have the airforce working with the army delivering paratroopers to any part of the world, and the navy following up with the main supplies. This would suit the peace-keeping role for Canada very well, but what about the defence ol 20 million Canadians, and do we want Canada to have a peacekeeping role? Hellyer has stated four advantages of a single service. these being identity,careers., adaptability of change., and demands of modem warfare. He feels that with a common identity we will be recognized around the world, and the soldier, sailor, and airman will be moz:e loyal. This will mean the forces will have to give up loyalties to old regiments. Hellyer says that with unification careers will be wider, more challenging, and more rewarding. To prove or disprove this is difficult. He also feels that a unified force will provide flexibility to meet challenging requirements in defense organization, made necessary by advances in military technology. Finally, an integrated force will make faster decisions needed in modern warfare. But are swifter decisions right decisions? Actually one cannot be too critical of the advantages which Hellyer has attributed to his plan, except to ask if they are important enough to make radical changes in Canada's armed forces necessary. The unification of Canada•s armed forces is a serious matter., and should not be taken lightly. This bill is causing much bitterness in Ottawa, and it should not be pushed through the House of Commons. The best thing the Liberals could do is to call an end to this session, to cool off angry heads, and to slow down the process of unification until it can be very thoroughly examined.

Radio personalities, along with certain members of our elite local high schools have condemned the ARGUS as this University's answer to HUSH and MIDNIGHT (not to mention The READER'S DIGEST); and so_ it ~as come about that one high school has asked this editor not to bring the newspaper to his school and it has passed that certain members of this community have confused the ARGUS as being an administration publi.cation. And therefore the ARGUS has experienced some trying moments. But before we continue, we must add that this editorial is not an apology to the administration for the infinitesmal harm we have done. And we are sure that the administration would not want an apology or even expect one. We as editors must be ready to print something in which we believe and then expect deluge. It is our duty to the students of this community. The actual reason for this editorial is one of clearing up a few misconceptions. First of all, we are not the administration newspaper. We are the supposed voice of the student. And as such we have to expect to rub the administration and the two cities the wrong way sometimes. But once again we are not the administration newspaper. The opinions we express are those of the editorial board. And since they are our opinions we think it ridiculous that the administration should suffer because of our stating them. Secondly, another fact must be cleared up in this editorial. Citizens of this university and of the two cities have been disturbed to see that the ARGUS actually carries some sex and socialism in it, and as such should be publicly and universally condemned. Great Scott, when will you learn that a student newspaper role is that resembling a Hyde Park soapbox? If someone has something to say that we think is legitimate, we will print it. Yes, Virginia, some people have something to say about sex, Cohen and Ginsberg, and Marx. And we' re not goin~ to stop them .... and pretend that these things just don t • exist...... Believe it or not they do. Perhaps it is our fault in a way too. We might just have gone too far, too fast. We still have to remember that this university is only a few years old. And perhaps the Lakehead is not ready for something that has been happening all across Canada for the last twenty years in other student papers. And perhaps we haven't realized this fact as we should have. For this we will apologize .. Thirdly., there has been some comment on our sending the ARGUS to local high schools. Cries of protest from parent and teacher have made their way to this paper. And it appears that their kids Just aren't ready for the rigours of student newspaper. This we find difficult to believe. Let's face it. Supposedly this paper is given only to the Grade 13's who probably will be going to college ·next year. If they aren't ready for this now., they never will be. Why should they have to be protected? If they have any kind of upbringing at all they should be able to make up their own mind concerning whether LSD is what they want or not or whether they join the NOP or not. And if you still don't trust us, one word of warning. Don't send your kid to the University of Western Ontario. Those unmentionables run nude shots every week in the paper. II Something- they haven't done anything yet. There's nottoo much to say. What can they do? Unless they're dishing out money they' re no help to me. Judy Francis, Arts I I'm satisfied with what CUS is doing right now. I Ron Simons, Forestry Who? CUS? Is that what you want? I think they should give us discounts since we' re really poor and we need all the money we can get cause Foresters don't make very much money in the summer. II What's CUS? When I was on Council last year they made a big fuss about bringing CUS in here, but &o far this year I haven't heard anything about what they've done. It looks like nothing came from all that trouble. There should be more action in the administration on the students' behalf, instead of travel posters. Dave Parsons, Arts Karen Nielson, Nursing I They should introduce travel plans for Nursing students. If they worked their discounts on the same lines that the Nurses did they might get a better deal. They should also make people realize this is a University town., now. Dan Murphy, Forestry II I think they should make themselves better known so that we can see what they' re supposed to be doini. The average studentdoesn tknow what to expect from a11 organiZation like this. They should advertise themselves better.

Dr. Tamblyn has made this statement in justifying the tuition hikes announced earlier this month. The fee increases of $50 for Degree courses and $70 for Diploma courses are now definite following ratification by the Board of Governors earlier in the month. Dr. Tamblyn was quick to point out that this new fee structure is still among the most reasonable in the province. "Generally, he .stated, the smaller universities all have tuition fees considerably higher than those here at Lakehead. • The following is a detailed breakdown of the student fee increases, and includes all compulsory payments for a total comparison.

ATTACKS ADMINISTRATION The University Committee Meeting of last Friday saw a blow-up of un-precedented proportions between the Administration and AMS representatives. Fuelled by real or imagined grievances against administration high-handedness; prompted by counsel from last year's student representatives to that committee; and determined to make a strong impact at their first official meeting, Peter Young, AMS President, and Don Lees, Treasurer, teed off against President Tamblyn, Dean Kerr, Director of Finance David Morgan, and Director of Planning Claude Smith. They took the administration entirely off-guard by presenting a series ofharangues against University policy to the surprise, and at times amusement, of the officials present. The President became .annoyed and disturbed at several points and Mr. Morgan appeared barely able to suppress laughter at what was later termed ill-prepared and ill-considered criticism directed toward the University. The University Committee is a grouprepresenting the student government, the faculty, and the administration. Its area of responsibility is undefined, but its existence is a unique experiment in student involvement in major policy-making decisions. Mr. Young and Mr. Lees of the AMS had prepared for the attack after being incensed by what they considered a paternal approach when they received, without consultation, an announcement of meeting, and an agenda, not from the official secretary of the committee, David Morgan, but from Dean Kerr. The agenda included what they considered to be topics towards which they would have to take a defensive stance, particularly the.ir requests for subsidies for several student programmes. They promptly had a new and official agenda prepared, including a number of topics which they thought would place them in a less protective position. These topics included rumours that 80% of second year Science students had failed, that the registrar's office had juggled lists of graduates and had unnecessarily interfered in· plans for the graduation weekend, and that the administration had ignored its own directives by hiring students because of their elective positions, despite the fact that they had failed and, therefore, would have to forfeit those positionlh The business began with Mr. Young pointing out an error in the agenda. He said that 'science fee' as listed should read 'Science fiasco' as requested by himse If when the agenda was being prepared. Thus the tone of the meeting was set. Items submitted by the administration were superceded for two hours by attacks from Messrs. Young and Lees.

About fifty percent of the damages claimed against the caution fees _last year were to cover lab breakage. Dr. Tamblyn stressed the fact that increased tuition was the only option open to the University in light of the new formula of University subsidies as adopted by the Provincial Government. Total grants to universities are up this year but those to Lakehead are insufficient •to allow for a tuition freeze. The formula provides no 1967-68 $550 (Arts) $560 (Science) $400 consideration for the relative isolation of this University and the attendant higher operational costs. Dr. Tamblyn said that he has 'been trying to impress this fact on the government for some time, but has not yet been successful'. Another factor here is that University Schools are subsidized on a per capita basis to the same amount as the University students, this amount being less than subsidies at strictly technological institutions. Dr. Tamblyn further stated that facilities offered here per student are easily on a par with those at similar institutions and that the only short- increase $60 $70 $90 coming, that being the lack of adequate athletic facilities, will be removed with completion of the Athletic Field House. Academic standards, he said, are similar to those of other universities. We also boast a University Centre Students' building, a luxury not offered at many newer universities. The Ql&in reason for higher tuition here and at other smaller universities is the relatively low enrolment. The fee increase will not have any adverse affect on enrolment, according to Dr. Tamblyn. He pointed out that a great deal more money would be available to students next year from the Students Awards Plan. GRADUATION BALL: See page fou, fr,r details and more pictures �l I'.

Why did you come to L.U .? A. I flunked out at Queen's); some frustration (Q. Did you pass? A. Of course not. I'm in Science.); and a big chunk of disappointment at what goes on at this supposedly intellectual institute of higher learning_ by Rod Phillips Throw it all together and you get - MAD. If there is ever to be an issue causing vocal discontent it will be this tuition hike. It's not only up; but way up. Now we will be paying as much to enrol here as at any other university in the province. Sure the budget must balance Sure the new grant structure forces this university to charge as much tuition as any other. Sure there is more loan money available. BUT, This is in the sixties. Tuition has been wiped out at Memorial. The Canadian Union of Students has named ''free tuition'' as a pri~rity item. Students threatened to strike at U.B.C. if tuition was raised. ALSO, There'.s no w~y anyone can say that this university offers as much in the way of facilities as the big ones down east. Last year investment per student here was about 60% of the provincial average. The ratio will be worse until a large part of the expansion programme is completed. .,_ Fine, now everybody has something to bitch ~bout; but before we go on strike, or burn crosses on the President's lawn; lets try to pin the blame. . As President Tamblyn stated (page one), he had no choice. This is true. As long as the Provincial Government thinks that all Universities are precisely the same and that their grants can be nicely figured out in terms of a simple formula, Lakehead University will remain out in the bush. The Department of University Affairs has, apparently for convenience rather than any other reason, lumped Lake;head in with the big, old, and well-endowed universities like Toronto and Western. They have dictated that if tuitions are not at or near a certain level, they will cut do~ their amouat of grant. This is only another example of the bureaucratic muddle issued from Bill Davis' Education Ministry. The best we can do is hope that University administrators, particularly here at Lakehead University, can raise as much of a stink over this ludicroas policy as students raised last year in a successful attempt to get the Student Awards Plan revamped. 0 lflUIIIIIHIIUUUIIIHHUtfflftllUIIJIIUIIIU&IIIUDHIIIIUUIIUltUUUNIIIIIIIHHIIIHIHIIIIIUIIIIUIIUIIUHUIIIIIUUUIIJUllhUUllhlllotuU::I May is, 1967, Volume 1, No. xvn, Port Arthur , The ARGUS is published regularly during the vacation period: ~ ; and weekly during the summer School period by the Alma Mater ~ Society of Lakehead University.

The avowed purpose of the Tribunal, initiated by the famous British philosoLord Bertrand Russell, is to determine: If the governments of the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea, have committed acts of aggression according to international law. If the U.S. military forces have used, or experimented with, weapons forbidden by the laws of war (such as gas, special chemical products, napalm, etc.) If there has been bombardment of civilian targets--hospitals, schools, sanatoria, dams, etc., and if so, on what scale this has occurred. If Vietnamese prisoners of war have been subjected to treatment forbidden by the laws of war, and if there have been unjustified resprisals against the civilian population. If forced labour camps have been created, or if there has been deportation of the population, or other acts tending to the extermination of the population and which can be construed as acts of genocide. If the Tribunal decides that one, or all, of these crimes have been committed, it will be up to the Tribunal to decide who bears responsibility for them. The National Liberation Front of south Vietnam and government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam have indicated their willingness to co-operate, as has the Cambodian Head of State, Prince Sihanouk. The government of the United States has been invited to present evidence and to state its case. The purpose of the Tribunal , is to establish, without fear or favour, the truth about this war. Now, many questions may be, and, indeed, have been, asked about the validity of .the Tribun'al. I intend to answer the three main questions below: Question: Is not the Tribunal a mere parody of justice? It is composed of personalities who are partisan, hostile to U.S. policy, and whose verdict is known in advance. Answer: The; question before the Tribunal is not to juage U.S. policy in Vietnam -- a policy opposed by the membe,s of the Tribunal -- but to see whether it falls within the provisions of international legislation on "iwar crimes." There is a profound difference in criticising a policy to which one might be totally opposed, and calling the policy "criminal" in a juridicjal sense. Question: Since it is law the Tribunal is invoking, by what law does the Tribunal set itself up as judge? Answer: The question before the Tribunal is not to condemn anyone to an ordinary, commonplace punishment. It cannot, for example, condemn President Johnson to death. The goal is to study all available existing documents on the war in Vietnam, to call in witnesses -- Vietnamese and American -- and t~ determine in soul and conscience whether certain acts fall within the provisions of the international laws mentioned above. The Tribunal will invent no new legislation, but may name, for example, certain acts as violations of certain international laws, and name certain persons. as responsible for the acts. It .will pomt out that if a real international Tribunal existed, wha·t the punishment of the crimes would be, in virtue of the laws . passed at Nuremberg, for example. The Tribunal therefore, is giving a juridical di~ension to acts of international policy, rather than pass only practical and moral judgements on :the conduct of the war. Question: War crimes are co~mitted by both sides in the war. Why does the Tribunal not judge the Vietnamese at the same time as the Americans? Answer: The Tribunal refuses to place on the same plane the actions of a group of poor peasants, obl,iged to enforce iron discipline rule in their ranks, and those of an immense army sustained by a super-industrialized nation. It is not the Vietnamese who have invaded America. There is no parallel between the terrorism of the bomb -- the sole arm at the disposal of the Vietnamese -- and the actions of a rich army of five hundred thousand men occupying and bombing the whole country. Those are probably the questions causing most scepticism in the minds of m~y people concerning the War Crimes Tribunal. The scepticism and doubt as to the Tribunal's validity are unfounded, however, as an examination of the nature of the Tribunal shows. The Tribunal has carried out meticulous on-the-spot investigatioQ and examination of evidence, and it will be well worth while to watch the results of the Tribunal's hearings. They should do uuch to expose the true nature of U.S. aggression in Vietnam. 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111•111111111111111 FIRST EVALUATION PLAN STARTED The Alma Mater Society, in cooperation with the A,RGUS bas instituted the first course evaluation program to be attempted at Lakehead.

ATTACKS (con'd from page one) The first major blow-up came when Peter Young demanded comment on the very high failure rate in Science courses. He· queried the administration on whether it was • stupid' students or ~ome other factor which caused such a high rate of ~ailure. Dr. Tamblyn replied that he and his colleagues were also deeply concerned and, as one example, pointed out that many Science faculty members were disappointed that their students refused to ~pply themselves seriously. In rebuttal, Young and Lees charged that the high proportion of Science lecturers who had instructed previously at English universities seemed to expect far too much from their students here. The next complaint brought for~ard by the AMS involved rumours that lists of graduates had been posted, removed and juggled, then re-posted last week, Young and Lees contended that such irregularities were inexcusable, consideriqg their importance to potential graduates. Dr. Tamblyn jl.llswered that 'there was some misunderstanding of the ne.ces sary' number of credits', and that the senate approved names of graduates without being fully aware of credit requirements. As a result, he said, he had a list of graduates removed from the registrar's office bulletin board on Thursday, May 4;' for review. The final list, as posted the next Tuesday,had, according to his recollection at the time of the meeting, only one change. The next complaint put forward f?y the AMS involved what Peter Young considered arbittrary and unnecessary action by the.registrar in informing, in a casual and high-handed manner, an elected member of a student organization, not only that he had failed; but, as stated by Mr. Young, that he would have to resign his student position. The AMS President's complaint was that the Registrar had rather presumptiously taken on a responsibility that he himself should have! been given -- that of informing a member of one of his AMS sub-organizations that· he must, resign his position. Dr. Tamblyn and Dean Kerr stated that the complaint was well taken but that it was reasonable to consider this action as 'standard registrar'~ duty' in light of the fact that academic standard requirements for elected student officials were set by the Senate as well as by the AMS. The question of Science failure rate was brought up again in response to further questioning and President Tamblyn indicated that special admissions to those without required High School credits would have to be studied more carefully. He said that a high proportion of these students had done poorly. Young and Lees proceeded to attack the administration on inadequate counselling procedures but suggested no realistic alternatives. Dr. Tamblyn asserted that provisions made for counselling at Lakehead were certainly not as inadequate as to warrant the criticism to which they were being subjected. He further stated that the discrepency between failure . rates in Arts and Science was •tiypical.' ~- ·_-~--- --.-._. ----~:;;·::-:.~:-' - :~~-:. ~ ;:::s~~:~~~t-:;:-~:;-~;;.:::~~-:- ~:~:~:-~;.;~. ,~-? -~~:-:-:: -. - DRAWING OF THE CENTENNIALBUILDING PRESENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION house which the University could perhaps do without.

DEVELOPMENT FUND HITS $2,250,000 MARK released Wednesday the artists conception of the new Centennial Building presently under. construction. The five storey structure represents $14,000,000 in building costs and scientific equipment. Architects Fairfield and Dubois of Toronto who also designed the Ontar.to Pavilion at Expo 67, have created a 'lJ' shaped building on the shores of the man-made lake. It will be larger than all the present campus buildings combined. containing some 250,000 square feet. It will be highlighted by a courtyard or agora entrance which is planned to become the meeting place of the university. The building will house science technology and arts program classrooms, administration offices and three lecture auditoriums each with a seating capacity of 350. A large 750 seat lecture auditorium is also included for the building complex. It will be situated right behind the present University Theatre: CO-OP HOUSING- AN -ANALYSIS The • word •',co-operative'' may suggest different things to different people--co-operati ve stores, co-operative bookshops, co-operative theatres, and so on. But the type of co-operative of greatest interest to students these days is co-operative housing. Campus co-ops grew in strength and importance during 1966, and are expected to do so to even greater degfe-es during 1967. Physically, a co-operative is the same as a university residence -- it provides board and lodging for •students. But at this . point the similarity ends. For whereas in a university residence the students pay a specified sum and receive specified services food, maid service, and so on -- and are required to comply with certain rules as set down by the 'administration oo campus, a co-operative: is much different. The essential difference is. that while a university resi. dence is owned and operated by university authorities, a co-operative is owned and operated by the students who live in the co-operative. There may be a parallel in the difference between living in someone else's house and living in your own. In this fact -- that the students operate their own housing -- lies one of the main purposes of a co-operative. In this situation, in which students take responsibility for a part of their environment, students learn to be involved and active in the surroundings in which they live -- not only the co-operative, their immediate environment, but also involved and active in their wider surroundings -- the university community in general. The involvement of co-operative in local decision-making prepares them to accept responsibility for decision making in society. The other important purpose of the cb-operative of course, is to provide an urgently-needed housing service -- an alternative to residence and boarding houses. by Rod Phillips There is a great deal of discussion as to whether co-operatives are a means to an end, or an end in themselves. The answer lies with the individual's decision as to which of the main purposes is of prime importance: is the main purpose of a co-operative to provide housing, .or is it to provide an opportunity to exercise responsibility on one's environment? It seems to me that the answer is a combination of both possibilities; that co-operatives are an end to an end. The student co-operative housing movement is part of a larger co-operative movement across the country. Many people are not aware of the size and scope of coopecatives in Canada, but some statistics may indicate their growing importance. In 1966 the membership of credit cooperatives reached 3.8 milliaa, an increase of eight percent over the previous year; in 1964, the latest year for which statistics are available, the cooperatives covered by the re- port issued by the co-operatives section, economics branch, Canada Department of Agriculture, had a total business volume of $1.85 billion. And campus co-operatives grew tremend~usly. Highlights are: Rochdale College at the University of Toronto. This is by far the largest project ever undertaken by university students. To be completed in 1968 it is costing $5 million and is to house 470 students. Co-operative College Residence was founded at Saskatchewan. Sponsored by existing co-operative, it has big plans to provide co-operative housing for Regina students. Saskatchewan saw its first major co-operative housing project get under way with the No. 1 phase of the Lanigan Housing Association in June. The Canadian Union of Students, with support from several central co-operatives has been able to put a full-time fie ldman at work organizing student's co-operatives. : Ht: has travelled to many parts of Cana~ to discuss with students the possibilities of establishing co-operative housing projects in their areas. There have been suggestions that co-operative housing be established at the Lakehead to provide for the needs of students. Thu~ it would not only alleviate the housing problem, but would, as pointed out above, provide students with the unique opportunity to get involved actively in the decision-making processes of thei~ environments. The possibility of establishing such a co-operative here is a very real one, and will be studied further. We must have, however, the 'desire on the part of sufficient numbers of students to establish a cooperative and the will on their part to make it real. It would be much appreciated if students who are interested in this project would contact - personally, by phone, ma'il, however they like - the C.U.S. office on campus. .. �THE ARGUS;; PAGE FOUR • MAY 19, l.967 • I: - Folk Song Enthusiasts by Chad Hannah Over Friday and Saturday, the 12th and 13th of May, of the week-end past the Graduatio_n Ceremonies of Lakehead Un1versity were formally held. On the Friday evening the Bacca~aureats Service was held ID the University Centre Theater following a Faculty reception for guests and graduates in• the Yenior Lounge. The main address was given by Harry D. Elmslie, Assistant Professor of Business Administration. The following day at 2:00 p.m. at the Coliseum in Fort William the Convocation Cerell)onies took place with the conferring of Degrees and Diplomas and the presentation of Medals and Awards. By the scheduled time there was 'standing-room' only in the hall. The graduates, members of faculty, and other dignitaries entered and the Convocation was declared open by the Chancellor, Senator Norman Patetson. After remarks by the President, Dr. Tamblyn, • the Convocation address w.as delivered by Dr. John E. Leddy, Vice-Chancellor and President of the University of Windsor. Diplomas and Degrees were then conferred upon the 190 graduates, and this was followed by the presentation of medals. Winners of these awards were: The Governor General's Medal, Tuire Nordin; Chancellor's MedaJ, John J. Mclelland (highest ranking full-time student); Chancellor's Medal, P. Gregg Yurick (highest ranking part-time student); Dr. Braun's Medal (Bus. Admin.) Terence E. Ey.ton; Dr. Braun's Medal (Engineering Tech.), Douglas I. Mercer; Dr. Braun's Medal (Forest Tech.), Brian J. Moore, Dr. Braun's Medal (Min-, ing Tech.), Micheal J. Tapics; Prizes of the Ambassador of Switzerland to Canada, Lily C. Blin (French) and Ade A.

Hider; President's Medals, Colleen Cupples, Gerry Hashiguichi, Ronald Hider, Tom McLeod, Mat Wilson, Chuck Sameluk, Wayne Tocheri, Dawn Brounlee, Peter Rusak and Joe St. Amand. The Convocation was then closed by the Chancellor, and a· reception was then held in the Auditorium at Exhibition Park. The formal Graduates Banquet and Ball was held in the Great Hall at 7:00 p.m. and was preceded by a . social hour for the 300 graduates and guests in the Senior Lounge. The principal speaker for the banquet was Dr. J .G. Rideout, who gave a most interesting and enjoyable speech dealing with his own experiences while lecturing in the United Sta!es and now in Canada. Following the dinner, the ball proper was declared open and continued amidst general revelry as could be expected for such a happy occasion. The ball ended at 2:00 a.m. after what had been a most enjoyable evenin8. In summarizing th1s ytars graduating class, the Faculty of Arts graduated 119 students, 34 more grads than the class of 1966. The honours class includes six first class standings from a total of 15 graduates, and the Faculty of Science presented 15 graduates this year as well. In addition, from a total graduating class of 190, there were 33 first class standings. Macdonald College of McGill Unive·rsity, in Ste. Anne de ..:Jellevue, Quebec, will be holding its fourth annual Folk Festival, October 13 and 14, 1967. One entry per College or Univetsity is permitted. The entry may be male or female, from one to four students including accompanists, and attending the College or University the fall of 1967, Each entry is asked to prepare two numbers or a fifteen minute programme including an introduction of his own songs. An entry fee of five dollars must be sent with the applica-. tion which will be returned on arrival at Macdonald College. FACULTY RECEPTION CAUTION FEES SCRAPPED DR, LEDDY ADDRESSING THE CONVOCATION CO-OP HOUSING RON HIDER POULIN AWARD WINNER Mr. Rod Phillips, CUS CoChairman, has been hired by the AMS for a six week period for the purposes of exploring the possibilities, and perhaps establishing, a cooperative housing organization at Lakehead University. He feels that with the inadequate residence facilities availaple here, and with the great success of the co-op idea at other centres, that the establishment of such a project would be a definite benefit to the University. GRADUATE BALL * ** It will be interesting to note whether the Registrar's Office carries through its threat to withhold marks until library fines are paid. The legal implications alone should be fascinating if a student decides to demand his results. FUR TRADERS RENDEZVOUS Ever tasted beaver meat? Beaver meat will be the featured dish at the 'Fur-Traders Rendezvous', the Friends of the Lakehead University Library's Centennial Dinner, June 131and 14. The Buffet ~tyle dinner will cost $3.00, with proceeds going towards the purchase of rare books for the University Library. • The Dinner will be held in the Great Hall, which will be decked out to resemble the original Fon William in its days as a Fur Trader's Rendezvous. Stuffed birds and animals will lend atmosphere to the ~ecoraations, as will the aroma of the cooking Beaver. Jack McKurdy, co-chairman of the Dinner, will supervize the culinary activity on the Beaver. For those who wish something less exotic in the way of food, barbequed beef and fowl will also be available. Desert will be boxes of candied fruit and ginger. .

So, in keeping with the setting, the Ramblers will provide music of a folk variety, while a dancer will do a jig (go-go) during the meal. In the past, the Friends of the Library have acquired some very rare books for the Library. including the MacKenzie Voyages, published in 1801. This gem cost the Friends S500. Tickets for the Dinner may be obtained from Mr. Gude, Cafeteria Manager, or from the Library desk. Caution fees have been eliminated for next year. How, ever, a 'Lab fee' of $10 is to be collected from students who take more than one Science lab per year. President Tamblyn has stated that caution fees have been eliminated for several reasons. Firstly, 'it is always difficult to assess accidents against students.' And secondly, 'the idea of a caution fee is never popular with the student.' Above all, it involved a good deal of work for the Accounts Office to collect, compute and' return. Thus the University Committee has ratified the President's decision to scrap it. The residence caution fee will remain the same, Dr. Tamblyn added. As to the question of the collection of a 'L.ab fee', the President stated that 'it is not a caution fee but an added levy collected from students who use the labs.' Play It Fashion Cool .

Through the open window he could faintly hear the willowy, coldly efficient nurses of the nearby hospital humming their theme, 'Some Day My Prince Will Come.' His masochistic desire compelled him to continue reading the editorial page of the local paper while his mother persisted to annoy him by clicking her false teeth and breathinir wheezily.

Evenings were a linle different. Although no one really knew what was going on, the orientation week activities effectively introduced new LU'ers to the major preoccupations of the institution.

The MacDonald caper of the year ·before was recalled when Mr. J. MacDonald resigned his post as head of the department. ARGUS delegates to the Montreal convention arrived back with the news that the paper had been granted full member· ship. The resignation of Bob Campbell as CUS chairman woke a few people on campus up to the fact that such as organization existed and perhaps prompted a few effectual people to get involved next year. Plans are underway for the first Model Parliament when the AMS consented to give a little mon· ey to those dirty politicians. The ARGUS got into all kinds of trouble for printing what some called "Jattine lyrics" . Everybody was in an uproar for a day or two when a cold spell left about half the cars in the student parking lot frozen and it was admitted by the admin. that the plug-ins only worked half the time.

The CUS·sponsored Schwartz report on Health and Psychiatric services on Canadian campuses revealed another grave shortcoming of the Canadian University but received more attention from adm101strations than from student groups.

This suppos· edly august body which never got over its high school student �MAY 19, 1967 council approach to the petty affairs with which it dealt, allowed personality conflicts to ruin its effectiveness for the rest of the year by asking its president to resign. But Tocheri stayed. This was about the time our leader:i were given the humble sum of $25 .00 to be passed on to some needy student. Could it have been a reflection upon how representative that council was that they coulm't find a single person who was short of money? Meanwhile some people here were doing something real. Simon Hoad and Bill Sheridan made an excellent showing at the Centennial debating tournament despite the only practice they had was in the cafeteria. Some people got together and formed a local chapter of SUPA but it too was never heard from. The big January scene was, of course, Carnival Week. The foresters' Woodchopper's Ball was the original horror show with more booze and battered bodies than has been seen at Lakehead both before and after. Rob Gerry, late entry and nursing nominee was crowned King Carnival and spent Saturday escorting Miss Canada around the campus and protecting her that night at the dance and at the parties afterward. The rolling drunk they called a parade was by far the best combined effort of the entire week according to everyone who saw it (and not the trail of bottles along its route). Arts took the sculpture contest with its centennial train theme and also first prize for best float featuring the Arts que~n candidate Sharon Woods. The torchlight parade -and tubing party on Tuesday night were other fine examples of qon-couth at its best. Slave day was probably the best allaround day of the year as more imagination was exercised in ' sadistic abuse than all year in any lecture or seminar. The pie-eating contest was right out of the zoo and its remnants kept the janitors at work (and out of our hair) for five hours. Thursday was sports day, organized and administered by the SAS. Artsmen, quickly recovering from their hangovers, took the early-:,morning princess pull but after that the Foresters pretty well dominated competition in most fields. :As usual another wild and wooly dance that night. Friday, the big windup ball was sav~d from failure when Moe Ktytor rounded up a few music-·making friends to do an excellent job of replacing the big band of Jimmy Begg which was grounded in Toronto by bad weather.

Despite the fact that it almost invariably runs ridiculous surpluses, the AMS voted to raise its fees $5.00 for next year and to levie a compulsory fee on summer school students. Council made almost its only farsighted decision of the year when, by default more than anything else, it voted narrowly to consider political club budgets in the future. The ARGUS added to its noteriety by being mentioned in Time Magazine as part of a quaint little write-up on LU. A Board of Trustees was set up by the AMS to look after all those surplus funds which treasurer Hider and his forerunners had so successfully hoarded.

APRIL "' FEBRUARY MARCH Elections for Model Parliament were held at the start of February with the Liberals walking off with an unexpected majority.

But while students remain basically the same, in that they are students and somewhat different from the rest of society, the issues they choose to become involved in, or to ignore as the case may be, have changed. This year was no exception. This was the year of The Pill, LSD, potheads, protest marches and draft dodgers. This was a year of student awareness and involvement, for never before have students appeared to know so much, or care so much, about where they are going and why. This was, and still is, the year of Canada's Centennial celebrations, of Second Century Week, of travelling lecturers, musicians and poets. It was als'o the year of ,Canadian Union of Students dropouts, infiltration of student organizations by one of the world's largest espionage agencies, demands for student representation on boards of governors and senates, and requests for open decision-making in universities. • A year to remember--at least for those directly involved in events which often threatened to blow the cool of stodgy, traditional institutions and pedagogues across the country. The first indication of the things to come occurred at the CUS Congress in Halifax fast September. And before the year was over, student activists had carried the ideas and resolutions born at the Congress clear across Canada--from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from Dalhousie University to the University of British Columbia. The struggle for universal accessibility to higher education, launched at the Lennoxville congress in September, 1965, was on again. Delegates decided to ask for more financial assistance than ever before, to try to wipe out social and financial barriers to post-secondary education, to ask for student stipends and the abolition. of tuition fees. They • took the resolutions back to their campuses for acceptance or rejection by the student masses. CUS education policy met its first big test at the University of Waterloo when the students' council there rejected free tuition and student stipends. The students themselves tended to support council's stand in a campus-wide referendum in which they voted to reject abolition of tuition fees. But they did come out in favor of student salaries. While Waterloo students were waffling on the student stipend fee abolition question, their counterparts at the University of Toronto and Ry.erson Poly- technical lnstinite were marching on the Ontario legislature to protest the controversial provincial student awards program. The students succeeded in pleading th•eir case, and the changes they called for have been submitted by a special committee for consideration by Ontario's education minister. But whether students voted, marched or remained in their stagnant pools of apathy, some were at least dimly aware of what CUS is and what it is trying to do. Some campuses .carried things a step further and reviewed their position in the national student union. The re-· i;ult of this critical examination was, in some cases, withdrawal. Four campuses had withdrawn from union at the September congress. By February, four more had followed. The first to opt out was the University of Alberta, led by council president BrannySchepaoovich. Schepanovicli claimed CUS was over-extending itself-becoming too concerned with international issues instead of concentrating on effectively representing Joe Student. Io the months that followed, Bishop's University withdrew over the same basic ideological difference as U of A. Bishop's students did not feel, as did CUS President Doug Ward, that students had a responsibility to become involved in sodety's problems through political stands taken by CUS. St. Dunstan's University was next. And when McGill withdrew to join !'Union Generalc des Etudiants du Quebec, CUS lost its lastfoothold in Quebec. As Ward said after U of A's withdrawal, CUS had truly become "a smaller and a tighter union." CUS' s problems are no.t yet over. Although It survived the recent Central Intelligence Agency scandal virtually unscathed, it still faces a major communit;ations problem. But while CUS is gradually losing its place in the limelight, this winter other issues have gained front-page coverage in campus newspapers. Student representation o·n policy-making university bodies has become one of the year's major causes. Students across the country are agitating for participation in university affairs and open decision making. At the University of Calgary they succeeded in gaining three seats on the general faculty council. But at the University of Western Ontario and institutions like it across the country, students are still lobbying for a voice in university affairs. All the Western campuses are working for coveted seats on various administrative boards, as are their Ontario counterparts. Not too much has been heard from Quebec or the Maritimes, but the representation-participation fever should" infect students there before long. *ti ,n , HOMEO' K•n!!!~k11 ffi!d C~!e!•• HOME DELIVERY or PICKUP John St DI 4-3506 N.

Students dropped out, an unprecedented number of campus newspaper editors resigned, and two university presidents resigned w-ithin a week of each other. Sex made a bigger splash than ever before. Even the most naive, innocent and inexperienced freshman in Canada has no excuse for being ignorant of a wonderful, fool-proof invention called simply "11:he pill"--unless he pleads illiteracy. Stories about sex and birth control were bigger and better researched than ever before. Editors went right to the source for their stories. And features appeared about a University of Western Ontario co-ed's abortion, about a U of T student's reasons for taking the pill and sleeping with her boyfriend. Health services officials were criticized for their refusal to dispense birth control pills to unmarried co-eds. Yes, sex wa~ bigger and bolder than ever before as the New Morality got into fullswing. Computers even got in on the act, and almost every large campus boasts a _computer dating centre, Student housing has always been an issue among university students. ,If they aren't cpmplaining about Victorian restrictions imposed on women residents, they're protesting about imminent fee increases. This year they took a new approach. Instead of assailing the deaf ears of housing directors with loud, ineffective wails, students decided to take matters into their own hands in an attempt to alleviate housing shortages. They began to turn towards co-operative housing--that old boon to financially embarrassed students--as one of the most feasible solutions to the problem. Co-ops became even more attractive in light of Central Housing and Mortgage Corporation's decision to lend money to finance student residences. Co-ops' have been in largescale operation at the Universities of Toronto and Waterloo for some time now.UBC and· Dalhousie are forging full speed ahead on plans for their co-ops, and a small group of University of Saskatchewan students are operating a pilot co-op. The University of Alberta, which has shown considerable interest in this area, has yet to commit itself to a co-op project. Other trends in student behavior manifested themselves, also. Bad cheques, missing library books, book store profits at break-even university book stores--all cropped up at virtually every campus. And all over, students devoted considerable time to just being students. Winter weekends, queen contests, boat races--all contributed to making 1966-67 a year to remember with some nostalgia, if not with a feeling of genuine pride and accomplishment. JUDICIAL COMMITTEE HUlfS SIi The ground rules for the operation of the AMS Judicial Committee have been laid. At a meeting on May 5 Dean Kerr, Mr. Ted Broughton, the AMS President and Treasurer, and the three members of the Judicial Comittee talked over the areas of administration of the proposed Security force as opposed to those of the students' committee. The important task of writing the formal constitution of the Judicial Committee will be completed by Chief Justice Bert Baumann and presented to Council next year for ratification. Important differentiations stressed at the meeting were primarily concerned with the limits of jurisdiction of the various agencies. It was decided that the AMS Judicial Committee would be responsible for infractions involving the University proper, and the well being of the students. Residence infractions will be handled by the house committee in the residence, while Mr. Broughton will be primarily concerned with property damage and nonstudent infractions.

Early bids were a little high but it looks like there will soon be an alternative to hitchhiking. Mr. Wayne Tocheri, last year's AMS President, bas been chosen as one of thirty Canadian students to take part in a tour of Russia this spring. The tour has been organized by the Canadian Union of Students in cooperation with a student union in the USSR. The tour within' Russia has been subsidized by the Russian student organization b~t Mr. Tocheri has had to raise· much of the travel expenses himself. The AMS has provided $100 in recogn1t1on of the privilege granted an LU student and on the understanding that he will write a series of eight feature articles on Russia for the summer ARGUS. Mr. Tocheri left Monday for a mid week briefing _in Montreal and will arrive in Russia over the weekend for the start of the 21 day tour. Mr. Tocheri has _agreed to the organization of a reciprocal tour by Russian students in Canada during August.

The question itself is not of great importance but the solution could be. Gary-Conrad Boychuk, an Arts 1 student and past President of the University Art Club would like to see those seven pieces of wall transformed into seven unique murals. His proposal will be brought before the University Committee at their next meeting and will be accepted or rejected there. Mr. Boychuk is preparing 10 to 15 coloured sketches of his plans to illustrate the proposal. Plans call for the murals to have a classical theme ranging from Egyptian wall paintings to Gothic sculpture and may include some representation of the Byzantine period. Also included in the proposal would be a mural depicting the transition between the Linear or Geometric Period to the Archaic Period of Greek art, a mural depicting the trJ__nsition between Greek and Roman paintings, reliefs, and architectural TWO REMINDERS Music Competition At Minneapolis The Twelfth Annual Young Artists Competition sponsored by the Women's Association of the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra has been scheduled for Friday and Saturday, September 22 and 23, 1967, e>o the University of Minnesota campus in Minneapolis.

Students Suspended Two Lakehead University students have been suspended for a year as a result of judicial action taken after an incident which occurred in Residence. The incident evolved when the two students were found in a drunken state late at night in an out-of-bounds area of the Residence. They were asked to leave, first by a proctor and then by a faculty member. The two then became aggressive, used obscene • landuage and ended by throwing a punch at the professor. For their actions the guilty parties were interview· ed by Dean Kerr, Dean of Students, in consultation with the Chief Justice, Bert Baumann. It was decided that judicial action was necessary because of the seriousness of the incident; the two could have been tried in a criminal court on several counts. The crimes committed necessitated a penalty and it was decided that a year of suspension, from September 1967 to April 1968, was both a lenient and a just sentence. It was pointed out by Dean Kerr that in most universities the two guilty parties would have been expelled immediately without a judicial hearing of any sort. The students, however, were allowed a hearing which encompassed the due process of law and were given the opportunity to complete this academic year. They were allowed to write the April exams and will be able to take any supplementary exams required to fulfill their year. Although they will be suspended for a year, the decision allows them to complete the current year without penalty.

The sport soon caught on, but unfortunately the tubes had to be returned to their owner. But where there's a will there's a way, and several tubing enthusiasts bought their own tubes from a city dealer at $2.50 a shot. AND UNDER THE BRIDGE ...

BALANCE ROYAL TRUST 4½% 202 ARTHUR STREET Port Arthur STUDENT LOANS PLAN REVAMPED, IMPROVED The Province of Ontario Student A wards Plan (POSAP) which caused so much controversy across the province last year has been radically changed. The Student Awards Offices on the various campuses have been given considerable autonomy in administering and grandng loans and bursaries to their own students. Formerly a large part of the job was done by a central office of the University Affairs Department in Toronto. There will be approximately three times as much government money available this year- ' PAGE ELEVEN 12½ million compared to last years 4¾ million-and a more generous loan to grant ratio. One of the reasons for this increase is that provincial grants formerly used by the Universities to pay -for entrance scholarships, for example the $1500.00 scholarships granted by Lakehead last year, have been applyed to the awards plan for next year. The detailed application form which was much criticized lastvear has also been revised.

I picked up the name after I had attended Athletic Leadership Camp at Camp Couchiching. •••••••••• Just to rub it in to some of my friends who are Montreal fans. Yes, as I predicted, Toronto Maple Leafs did win the Stanley Cup. •••••••••• Congratulations to the Port Arthur Marr' s who won the Abbot Cup, symbol of Junior Hockey Supremacy in Western Canada. •••••••••• I don't want to embarass Canada (and glorify Sweden) but fet's face it Canada's National(?) ~ockey team bombed out at the 1967 Winter Games. I hope we're not wasting our money sending our team over to Europe each year so Rev. David Bauer can get his trophy for sportsmanship while the team is robbed by the refs and then bitterly complains to no avail. Hockey is our game so we will play it our way. (the only reason international rules were introduced was to take away our advantage in hockey) We should have our own world to1;1rnament every year in Canada and invite outside teams to compete. Most teams in Group A and some of Group B in the International Ice Hockey Federation would come and soon all the teams would be won over to our game. Then we wouldn't or couldn't cry if we lost. •••••••••• I'm glad to see the Lakehead University fastball team has been entered into the Intermediate Fastball Leagu.e. Under the directing of playing coach Henry Akerval the team is practicing and indications are .t hat it will be a strong contender. The only real weak point is the lack of good pitchers ...... Good Luck Boys. •••••••••• Rumor has it that Lakehead University is going to have a fieldhouse. If rumor can find it or build it then we're set. I heard that 1984 was set as the completion date with "iBig Brother" opening the doors. •••••••••• Also seems that we have an athletic board at this school, made up of several people, who in my humble opinion, have never played a sport in their lives. They are afraid to institute .t good athletic program with a large fie1dhouse for fear sports may come into prominence. That would be terrible because we have such a high academic standard.· I even recall Lakehead University being called the Parson's College of Ontario or Drop-out University. Even this year with our small emphasis on sports, what brought prominence to Lakehead University was not academic achievement but victory in sports. One source has it that a certain member of our faculty wants to make skiing the major sport at Lakehead. I'm not degrading our skiers but the dead bears in Banff National Park, rolled over. in their graves laughing when they heard this. We just do not have large enough hills around the Lakehead to compare with those in the "Rockies, Southern Ontario or Quebec. Remember what the fat oracle said, ''ii you can't play a sport • bow1, ski or curl." •••••••••• ATHLETIC BASH HUGE SUCCESS by LalTY Hebert St. Patrick's Day was the date of this year's athletic windup banquet anddance. Highlight of the night was the naming of skier Tom Morton as Lakehead University's male athlete of the year and of Marg Hamalainen as female athlete of the year. Tom was chosen be· cause of bis outstanding success in local ski competition and his top showing in the Ontario Intercollegiate Ski Meet. Marg was given the nod as the female athlete because of her participation on the S.A.S. coun· cil, her great play on the women's basketball team and her participation in intra-mural sports . .
