" The speaker drew the attention o f the students to the fact that .they alone make up the Alma Mater So- ciety and that any progress in studen t government must be made by stu- dents when they are going through th e university. Powerful Students Counci l "Few students here realize the power which their students' counci l has . I have visited the four western 1 ' universities in Canada and several In the Pacific northwest, but nowhere has a students' council anything lik e the power of the U,B .C. council . For example, this council can expel a student without stating any reason " Tangible Spiri t Whimster told his listeners of th e "good old days" when, during a cam- 1 paign, every available Inch of space ' in the auditorium was packed at Bill Whimater, president of A .M .S . , A .M.S . meetings, and when university 1992 . 33, made a brilliant speech fro m spirit was "a tangible thing, which the floor at the Alma Mater meetin g used to leap up tit us over the foot- Wednesda y lights. " "If the students will take an inter- est in their affairs, and will tell the students' council when and where the y are wrong," he said in concluding , "we will have a real student spirit , and a real student body ." - Scienceman Max Legg, almost unre- cognizable without his pipe, preceded Whimster on the platform, bewailin g the lack of spirit in the university , and the lack of campus custom an d tr adition . Dying Faculties "A university atmosphere should b e created by the students that com e year after year, " Legg said, "bu t seven years ago the faculty of Ap- plied Science was dying . Now it i s dead, and a few steps farther on lies the grave of Arts. " Legg finished with a plea to the students of to-day to lay now a cor- nerstone of tradition and custom .

"The fraternities and sororities on the campus could de agreat deal in welding the student body into one complete group"declared Bill Whimster, A.M.S. president in 1932-33, address-ing the semi-annual Alma Mater meeting Wednesday noon ,

"It has been suggested," said Mr,cbWhimster, "that fraternities and sor-orities tend to undermine studentspirit, and I am inclined to agree ,These organizations should put th euniversity first and themselves sec-ond . "The speaker drew the attention o fthe students to the fact that .theyalone make up the Alma Mater So-ciety and that any progress in studentgovernment must be made by stu-dents when they are going through th euniversity.

Powerful Students Council"Few students here realize the

power which their students' counci lhas . I have visited the four western 1 'universities in Canada and several Inthe Pacific northwest, but nowherehas a students' council anything likethe power of the U,B .C. council . Forexample, this council can expel astudent without stating any reason"

Tangible SpiritWhimster told his listeners of the

"good old days" when, during a cam- 1paign, every available Inch of space 'in the auditorium was packed at Bill Whimater, president of A.M .S . ,A .M.S . meetings, and when university 1992.33, made a brilliant speech fromspirit was "a tangible thing, which the floor at the Alma Mater meetin gused to leap up tit us over the foot- Wednesdaylights. "

"If the students will take an inter-est in their affairs, and will tell thestudents' council when and where the yare wrong," he said in concluding ,"we will have a real student spirit ,and a real student body ." -

Scienceman Max Legg, almost unre-cognizable without his pipe, precededWhimster on the platform, bewailin gthe lack of spirit in the university ,and the lack of campus custom andtr adition .

Dying Faculties"A university atmosphere should b e

created by the students that comeyear after year, " Legg said, "bu tseven years ago the faculty of Ap-plied Science was dying. Now it isdead, and a few steps farther on liesthe grave of Arts. "

Legg finished with a plea to thestudents of to-day to lay now a cor-nerstone of tradition and custom .

"The Nature of British ForeignPolicy" was the subject of a paperread by Mr . A . J . Johnson before th eHistorical Society on Thursday even-ing, at the home of Mrs . W. N. Sage .

Friday, October 19, 1934

Correspondence

Editor, Ubyssey,Dear Sir:

This year, for the second time, th e

Alumni Association is carrying for -

ward an activity of some benefit t o

the students of the University in th e

form of Vocational Guidance Lectures.

Last year these lectures, consisting of

talks on the prcfessions, by variou smen prominent in the professiona llife of the province, were both en-joyable and instructive.

These talks were promoted by mem-bers of the Alumni Association in th ebelief the undergraduates could findsomething valuable in them, especial-ly at the present time when position sfor both undergraduates and prospec-tive graduates arc rather fcw and fa rbetween .

The Alumni are going to some con-siderable trouble to obtain speaker sof prominence, asking of the stu-dents only that they turn out to themeeting in support of the speakers .The only responsibility of the under -graduate society in connection wit hthis activity sa to see that the meet-ngs are advertised as fully as pos-sible on the campus .

I have been given the responsibilityof seeing that the students are full yaware of the time of these meetings .To this end, 1 am appealing for vol-unteers to undertake the job of put-ting out placards advertising thesemeetings. There are, surely, on thi scampus, two et' three men who wouldbe interested sufficiently in an activ-ity of this kind to undertake two o rthree hours work a week in orderthat these lectures may obtain thesuccess they deserve.

Yours,John Sumner.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER, 19, 193 4

THE LETTER RACKSSome of the students are apparently un-

aware of the existence of the letter racks i nthe Arts Building, or else they are too modestto believe that anyone would ever stoop so lo was to write them a letter, or even scribble anote to them on a scrap of paper .

In any case, the fact is that there are num-erous letters and notes lying in the racks whic hhave not been called for since they wereplaced there . These may include letters tha thave come through the mail as well as note saddressed from one individual or organizatio nto another on the campus, and it is thereforeimportant to everybody to visit the rack atregular intervals .

The letter racks are a convenient means ofcommunicating with any student on the cam-pus who cannot be reached otherwise . If youare one of the freshmen or freshettes who havenot yet visited this "campus post office, " youwill locate it in the corridor at the men's en dor the women's end respectively of the Art sBuilding. And who knows what delightfu lsurprise may be awaiting you there ?

"THE CULTURAL CENTRE "On Friday last we published a brief his-

tory of the Vancouver Symphony and an ac -count of its present situation. Last year i tfailed to meet expenses and the deficit wa smade up by contributions, but as this is con-sidered an unsound financial basis the con-certs will be discontinued this season unlessthe society obtains twelve thousand dollars i nits October drive .

The first symphony association in Vancou-ver was founded in 1919 and and discontinue din 1922 due to lack of funds . Will the secondorganization meet a similar fate after five suc-zessful years?

This appeal should meet with some respons ein the University, which after all is the cultura lcentre of the province . Many students arealready symphony enthusiasts by virtue of anatural love of music, but most of us, leadin ga rather hectic existence between curricularand extra-curricular activities, prefer our re -creation in a less intellectual form, and th eharanguing of older people who deplore ou rlack of musical appreciation becomes a littl emonotonous .

In time, however, our diversions of toda ywill cease to interest us, and we must turn t oother fields for our enjoyment. By cultivatingnow an appreciation of good music we acquire ,after a little preliminary boredom, an unlim-ited capacity for entertainment, and in pullin gourselves out of our cultural inertia we mayhelp to pull one of the best symphony orches-tras in Canada out of a financial hole .

SELF DEFENS EIt is the acknowledged right of every stu-

dent on the campus to criticize the Ubyssey .Few, however, think of the difficulties that thestaff has to contend with before the paper ca nbe published . Many of these difficulties ar ecaused by the clubs who wish to publish notice sin the Ubyssey . Perhaps the worst part of thedrudgery in the Publications Office is the typ- ,ing. Yet how many clubs think to type thei rreports or notices before handing them intothe office' Often a four-page scrawl on somemeeting that none of the staff attended has t obe given to an overworked assistant to put int oreadable form . Can you wonder that the re -port is condensed or that important details areleft out, and that none of the editors are cap -able of judging what items each club consider ssignificent . If the reports aren 't typed theUbyssey cannot be responsible for the contents .

Also all secretaries of clubs should realiz ethat the deadline is ten o'clock the morning be-fore the paper comes out . Yet "Class andClub" notices seldom begin to arrive till twelve

Even Students Council rarely remember t osend in notices till late in the afternoon, inaddition they generally require space on th efront page of a harrassed senior editor who hasalready decided on the page make up .

So if a notice fails to get in or is in som eway maltreated, before you begin slammingthe Ubyssey staff to all and sundry try to re -member whether the notice was typed clearl yand sent in on time . The aim of this paper i s

Ito serve the students but it cannot do its bes tunless the students serve it .

EXPENSE

APATHY. . .

RUGBY ?

Crab

How About Publicity?The Student's Council , is displaying much

justifiable agitation over the lack of interes ton the part of the students in the conduct o ftheft' own government. It might be as wel lto ask why the students are apathetic .

There are several good reasons . The stu-dents have no direct voice in the conduct oftheir own government; they merely elect th epeople who attend to their affairs for them .These people are nearly all seniors, and as th estudents have no opportunity to approve o rdisapprove of their conduct at future elections,they have no incentive to keep closely informedof their actions .

Little publicity is given to debates and con-troversial questions arising in the Council .Nothing is made public as to the stand takenby various members of the Council on suchquestions, No opportunity is given the stu-rents to form opinion on these questions, or t oexpress them when formed .

As long as the Council is content to giveus moderately good government in a quiet an dunobtrusive manner, they cannot expect agreat deal of student interest in their doings.Let Us Stick To Our Own Game

Our athletic solons are in a most uncom-fortable position. They are trying to go in fo rthe American system of college gladiators andpaid coaches, and yet retain the British idea ofplaying games for amusement .

In the anamolous position of this Univer-sity, in Vancouver and not of it, anxious todevelop intercollegiate sport and not equal t oit, interested in athletics but not enthusiastic ,these unfortunate solons are in a tough spot .

It does not appear to have occurred to the mthat we are not, and never will be, able to com-pete with the States in American football . Ourfreshmen- have not the preliminary training ,and we just don't go in for games with thedeadly seriousness of our southern neighbors(thank the Lord) .

It might also pay them to consider Englis hrugby. It is becoming more and more popu-lar in U.S. colleges. We know the game . It isadmirably suited to our particular type o fathletic gifts. If we lay our plans now we canequal and possibly exceed any advances the ymake in the training of rugby teams .

Why not let the Yankees come to us forour competition in our own game? The re-sults of encouraging American football hav enot always been fortunate even on its nativ eheath .Ten Bucks Is Ten Bucks These Day s

Speaking of student interest in Alma Mate raffairs, how many have ever realized the im-plications of the treasurer's report? It really isinteresting .

The first thing is the absence of some $500 0of our fees from the report, or approximatelythree bucks each of our individual contribu-tions . Do you like paying that much for a gym-nasium? How much use do you get out of it ?

Second comes the Women's Union Building .There is nearly $10,000 in the bank . waiting forus to put it into a social center . How long i sit going to moulder there before we raise th enecessary additional funds and get some valu eout of it? Each year we spend almost enoug hin hall rent to pay interest on the extra mone ywe need .

In the athletic department we pay nearl y$650 for the benefit of the Canadian rugbyites .Its nearest rivals, English rugby and basketball ,cost only two-thirds and half of this, respec-tively. How does this stack up when comparedwith the returns we get in moral and physica lbenefits? These figures, of course, are th edeficits only .

In the other undergrad activities, the mostexpensive items were Parliamentary Forum ,$485, Player 's Club, $218, and PublicationsBoard $3250 . Whether you bought the Totemand read the Ubyssey, or not, you paid $ 2apiece toward their production . How does thatstrike you?

r EXCHANGE

The fraternity battle on the King-ston campus is still raging . The Mc -Gill Daily states that five membersof the senior football team are threat-ened with suspension through mem-bership in international fraternities .So far the antifraternity party ha sbeen in the lead ; but it is rumoredthat there are already some frat-ernities who have established them -selves firmly .

The Daily Californian and the Mc -

Gill Daily survey the week's radi oprogrammes .

The Californian : "Raymond Paigewill direct the 35-piece odrchestra a tGrauman's Chinese . , . College songsof Southern California and Pittsburg hwill be hired at 9 p .m . . . . Glen Graypl,~ying en the tobacco 'Cal avan' . "

The McGill Daily, "The followin gprograms we consider to be the mostworthwhile during the week : N. Y .Philharmonic Society . . . Radio Cit yMusic Hall , . . Hall of Fame . , . Ros aPonselle. "

One of the main functions in con-nection with the inauguration cere-monies was a dinner to practicall yall the public organizations in Win-nepeg . Another was a discussion onJunior Colleges, and the third a meet-ing at the Civic Auditorium, a mag-nificent new building built to holdover 4,000 people, where Dr . Smit hdelivered his inaugural address .

President Klink indicated how th efour Western provinces would ultilizethe $200,000 Carnegie Grant, it bein gunderstood that each province woul dget a grant of $50,000,

Llbrules Bereft

Manitoba's share will be directedto the libraries of the Junior colleges ,their present libraries being inade-quate„ Saskatchewan intends to tak eover Regina Colege and make it auniversity at Saskatoon. Alberta's$50,000 will go into research wor ksupplies and equipment necessary t ocarry out such work ,

As for B: C., the plan Is to dis-tribute the grant into three channels.A program will be worked out withinthe University for extension work t ofurther adult education, To date suchwork has been conducted by volun-tary hands under the direction of aspecial extension committee heade dby the President, the Deans and Dr .Todd, the secretary, with an attend-ance of over 30,000 during the year .It is felt however, that much morecan be acomplished with financia laid .

Educational Travels

Another part of the grant will beused to cover n portion of the travel -ling expenses incurred by facultymembers who journey to attend edu-cational meetings and convention soutside the city and province .

The last part will be utilized forscholarships for graduates who inten dto carry on work either at U .B .C. orelsewhere. Under this item would alsocome books, apparatus and genera lequipment required for post graduat ework .

Prior to leaving for the coast Dr .Klinck also attended a convention onmusical education . The discussio nwas practically confined to the East -ern universities where departments ofmusic are already established bu tneither Alberta nor B . C. can hopefor departments of music for som etime .

Conflicting Concepts of CovenantIn the contemporary world, Britis h

foreign policy is affected by "th echanging conditions of empire an dimperial defense ." The British vie wis diametrically opposed to that ofFrance; whereas the former rests onthe basis "of tree and universal as-sociation of nations which would dis-cuss their difficulties and grievance sopenly and freely"—this French ide ais derived from the conviction "tha tEurope and rs(,ecially the defeatedpowers, can not he expected to keeppeace unless th 'y are compelled to d oso . ,

Radical PoetDiscussed By

Letters Club"From the point of view of th e

literati, few of the many poets whos ework belongs to the thirty-odd yearsof this century have survived in mor ethan name. The majority are "stuckfast in yesterday." Confounded ineach successive aesthetic revolution ,in skirmishes of theory and pitche dbattles of intellect, their most cher-ished ideals deviated by criticism ,they are now, in every literary sens ecomfortably dead and decently bur -led . Among the few survivors, wefind one who, but for the intrinsicmerit of genius and a certain dyna-mic quality of golf-assertion, mightvery well have vegetated and grow nrank in erudition years ago—alon gwith other medievalists . "

Ezra PoundThis was Beatrice Cook's introduc-

tion in a paper on the poetry of EzraPound before the Letters Club, at thehome of Mrs . John Riddington, Tues-day evening.

After describing Mr . Pound as aman with "a strong individual, dyna-mic, fighting personality, more afraidof convention, of mediocrity and o fcataleptic art than of all the big gun sof criticism," Miss Cook proceededto give a short biographical and bib-liographical sketch of Mr . Pound u pto the present .

Mr. Pound is first of all and abov eall a radical among poets . A defian tpersonality, hating the mediocre, hat-ing respectability, crusading againststagnation, a swashbuckler amongtheorists, he made a name for him-self in London, among the Imagis tgroup. His avowed purpose is tooverthrow authority in matters ofaesthetics, to stir the minds of me nand incite them to progress.

Mr . Pound appears obscure for thesimple reason that we have not suf-ficient intelligence and scholarshi pto understand him . Moreover, hi spoems may be read as such, withoutthe reader troubling himself overmuch about actual allusions . It ismy belief, declared Miss Cooke, thatthere is nothing in his work that can -not be hderpreted rationally .

CraftsmanAbove all else Mr; Pound is a mas-

ter craftsman. He has served a longapprenticeship in the study of theworld's greatest writers with the re-sult that he both teaches and prac-tises the forgotten art of poetry .

Miss Cooke then discussed the be-liefs of Mr . Pound concerning poetry ,illustrating her remarks with quota-tions from "A few Don'ts for an Im-agist" and the "Credo ."

The earlier poems are almost en-tirely lyrical, very pretty and ver yyouthful . They display very mark-edy the influences of Greek orthology ,of the Provincial troubadours, of Vil-lon, of Dante, and of Robert Brown-ing — Pound's idol among Englis hpoets . The poet shows an interest i nall forms. We must remember hisavowed purpose to attain mastery ofthem, declared Miss Cooke ,

The content, the manner and thestyle of all these early poems are re-flected in Pound's magnum opuswhich we can cnly designate as "Th eCantos," A vvent as yet unfinished ,it nevertheless embodies the artisti cconsumnation of the poet's career a sa literary craftsman .

I should like very much to impressupon my audience the fact that th eCantos are not unduly difficult—tha tthey posses both rhyme and reason .

In the matter cf design which ap-pears to both most people, I believ ethere that there is a relatively simpl esolution—In the first place they ma ybe said to reveal the mind and sou lof Mr. Ezra Pound—that inordinately ,learned noan, through this man the yilluminate the t,orld of today . ForPound, this teo,•ld has lost all sens eof time and !,pace Only the eterna land infinite rem,iin .

Out of the carat void of living —men's voices sl,ezik—voices from th edead nand, Becau:ae there is no time ,all events historical or imaginary ar eequally true anal arc contcmporaucou sThe countless voices may communi-cate with one another in polite an dcasual conversation . The Cantors ar elike the Iliad, the Odyssy and the Di -vine Comedy ar,e scrambled togethe rin terms of the complications of mod -ern life . The voice of Pound may b :identified with many of the countles svoices . To really appreciate the Can -toes, we shot! : read all that Mr .Pound has reed, said Miss Cooke .

Canto XIV sites Dante's visit t ohell . It is a vem, excellent and com-prehensive hell, declared Miss Cooke .And as regards sheer ugliness far sur-passes both Dante and Milton, Every -one is there except one's immediat efriends . Pound sees politicians, prof-iteers, "the press gang," vice-crusa-ders, usurers, philologists, the imper-ialists, 1 .,dy , ;uliers, fabians, conserv-atives, British neckties, etc .

In concluding her paper Miss Cookesaid, "To the poet and critic his greetmastery of the art of writing is mos tsignificant . Pound's chief contrihu-tion to poetry of today and the futur eis to be found in this important fiel din which he many be called a pionee ramong moderns . He is pus-eminentl ya stylist ."

Shoddy Gowns

Banned

The official Gown for the Seniorclass is to cost $4 .00, not $2 .30 as waspreviously announced, it was decidedtoday by Stewart Crysdale, after con-sultation with varlou, authorities .The cheaper gown was discarded aspositively unsuitable, when a samplerevealed its weaknesses, to wit, poorworkmanship, shiny and heavy cloth ,poor fit, the wrong braid, and gener-al shoddiness. A sample of the ap-proved gown is un display at the Cur-ator's Office, and orders will be re-ceived by him starting today . Eachorder must be r.ccompanied by $4.00cash. When two dozen cash ordershave been received, the gowns wil lbe deliverd on the campus . A limitednumber of 100 garments are availableunder the special arrangement bywhich the cut price has been ob-tained . All additional orders will b eassessed Vie regular charge . Novem-ber 17th has been set as the last da ywhen orders will be taken. A gen-ral response is anticipated for thesereally good gowns at such a low pric eand Seniors are reminded that th eprice will be more than made up b ysaving In clothing and prospectiv esale to next year's Seniors ,

Hoopers Swing Into Action Tomorrow At V.A.C.

After trailing Varsity for most of the time, the track ath-letes of Britannia and Magee put on a whirlwind finish to beatthe Thunderbirds quite comfortably in the Varsity-High Schoo lmeet Wednesday afternoon . In two events, the high jump and220-yards hurdles, thes choolboys made a sweep of all thre eplaces while in the 120-yards hurdles and pole vault the bes tVarsity could do was to annex third place . It is true that inretaliation the U.B.C. tracksters garnered seven firsts to th ehigh schools' five but the flood of second and third places prove dtoo much, and when Announcer Stu Keate projected his bari-tone syllables for the last time to the assembled listeners th escore boomed forth as•High Schools 68, Varsity 45 .

And Lose Third Game

Playing their first game under thelights, Doc Burke's grid team droppedtheir third game, this time to Nort hShore, The boys from across the in -let, led by Downey and Cliff, out-played the student team until the fin -al quarter, when the Thunderbird sstarted a spirited aerial attack . Fumb-les developed in the early part of thegame and continnued making throughgame and continued throughout, mak-ing it a ragged if exciting contest .
