Gymnasium .With cash and definite pledges to a total of approximately $202,000 on hand, and wit h

an indication that the total may reach more than $270,000 in the near future, the Wa r

Memorial Gymnasium Committee has decided that the time has come when it may definitely

be) said that the Gym will be built .Although the advertised object-

ive of half a million dollars is fa rfrom being reached, the Commit -tee believes that the money avail-able, plus a bond issue to b efloated by the Alma Mater Soci-ety, will make it possible to buildat least the first unit of theGymnasium.

The possibility of floating abond issue has already been as-sured by the pledge which mem-bers of the Alma Mater Societ ytook at a general meeting las tfall to pay $5.00 per year into theGym Fund. The amount of theissue, however, will have to b eapproved by another generalmeeting.

At present, there is no indicat-ion of whether the matter will bebrought before the meeting thisspring or the one next fall . Mem-bers of the committee are talkingunofficially of suggesting tha tbonds be floated up to an amoun tof one hundred thousand dollars .

Election of President and Trea-surer of Student Council will tak eplace on February 5 . Nomination sfor President are to be given t oJoy Donegani, Chairman of theElections Committee, on Januar y22, two weeks before the date o f

SASKATOON, Jan . 13, (CUP) —Charges made recently by Wesle yHeald of United College, Univers -ity of Saskatchewan, speaking atc Youth Forum meeting, that stu-dent members of the Labor Pro-gressive Party are paid to attendcollege have been flatly deniedby Abe Roytenberg, chairman o fthe student LPP club here .

Roytenberg termed the accus-ation "red bating," and challengedHeald to produce specific evi-dence .

"The statement that LPP stu-dents receive loans or scholarshipsis an absolute prevarication," hedeclared.

suitable for non-athletic as wellas athletic functions . It is realizedthat the large seating capacity o fthe gym could be used for gath-erings of many kinds, such as con-ventions, public rallies, importantspeeches, convocations, etc .

The decision to begin c wetruc-tion, however, will be dependen tupon the material and housingsituation at the time .

Penn McLeod, who acted a spaid manager of the Gym Drive,has now completed his duties andis in the process of turning ove rthe records to the entire WarMemorial Gymnasium Committe eand the Alma Mater Society.

STUDENT PROMOTIONThe AMS office in Brock Hall

will now assume responsibility forclerical work connected with thecontinuing campaign, and theStudent Council will be asked t oset up a student committee tocarry on additional promotionalduties.

The entire War Memorial Gym-nasium Committee, which is corn-posed of numerous alumni andstudent officials and which isheaded by AMS President TedKirkpatrick, will carry on withthe over-all direction of the con-tinuing campaign.

Ultimate decision on financialmatters rest with the Board o fTrustees, composed of PresidentN. A. M. MacKenzie, Kirkpatrick,and Alumni representatives FredBolton, Gary Miller, and OleBakken.

Though the general campaignhas been halted for the presen tand a beginning on building planshas been made, it has been madequite clear by the Committee thatthere will be no let-up in thedrive to secure additional funds.

Business firma and persons onthe special names list will be re -canvassed if their donations hav enot been up to the quota set forthem; a special canvass of facultyand alumni will be carried on ;and branches of the Alumni As-

sedation will continue to seekmoney from Victoria and otherB.C . centres.

VALUE FOR MONEYEvents in aid of the Gym will

still be sponsored by the Commit -tee, but it has been put on me -

Ord that such events must "givemoney as well as bring in rev-enue . "

It is expected that, because ofthe record amount of publicitythat the campaign and the uni-versity in general have receive dthroughout Canada, unsolicte dcontributions will continue to ar-rive for many months .

MCLEOD'S REASONSIn making his final report to

the Committee, Manager McLeodattributed the failure to reach theadvertised objective mainly totwo things: apathy and antagon-ism among the student body ; andthe fact that the Gym Drive hadto be conducted in competitionwith numerous other similar cam-paigns throughout the province .

McLeod said : "We feel that ev-ery effort has been made through -out the campaign to tap everypossible source of revenue and tocreate as favorable an impressionas possible downtown and acrossCanada. We have never at anytime resorted to high pressure tac-tics nor have we conducted anyphases of the campaign whichwere not in keeping with the dig-nity of the University. "APATH Y

"That the campaign was notmore successful was due, I feel, totwo fundamental reasons : (1) ap-athy among the students and inmany cases antagonism which ca nhe directly traced to the mannerin which the students were origin.ally told that they were to helpcampaign for a War Memorialwhich was to take the form of agymnasium; (2) the second reasonwas that the Drive ran 'last man 'after many other charity drivesdowntown and that many branchorganizations of the campaign al-ready had their own local mem-orial and charity drives.

"Many of the groups called uponto give assistance did not fulfil ltheir vowed obligations and theorganising of the GymnasiumDrive was greatly weakened bythe number of groups which didnot live up to their promises ofco-operation. However, we dofeel that in terms of pest cam-paigns the Gym Delve has been asuccess and the university's effort shave shown all other Canadianuniversities what UBC can do."

Fern Ski ArtistsMay Meet Sout h

Plans for a girls ski team arewell under way . The ski consciousgirls on the campus are going toform (competition for the variousteams around town and possiblyventure into the States to meetwith girls from the U. of Washing-ton. If this trip can be arranged ,coach Peter Vajda agrees that i twould be excellent practice forthe girls, even if they did face de -feat once or twice before carryingoff honours.

Since only girls who are mem-bers of the Varsity Outdoor Clu bmay join the team, everyone with

skiing ability should join the club .Upon the payment of $1 .00 at theAMS office anyone may becomea non-cabin member of the V.O .C. ,provided they have cabin accomo-dation on some mountain .POTENTIAL TEAM

Possible members for the girl sski team are: Charlotte Coebit ; JoCastillo ; Molly Burt ; and MaizieEwart. It is certain that there areother girls perhaps as equallyqualified as those mentioned butif they are not members of th eV.O .C . it is not likely that theyare known to the majority of sk ienthusiasts, Therefore all girls in-terested in skiing are urged to jointhe V.O .C . If enough interest isshown in the sport there may bea chance in the future of formin ga separate club outside of theV .O .C. to be exclusive to skierswith an eye to the future of corn-petitive skiing.

The two victories are number sfive and six for the Thunderbirdswho have not as yet suffered aConference set-balk. The Lin -field squad floored a strong squa d'again this year as they did lastwhen they finished in second slotin the Conference standings.

In the Friday night fracas, theThunderbirds seemed to be hav-ing trouble throughout the open-ing minutes getting organized onthe defence . A series of time-outsfinally got things fairly well undercontrol but the 'Birds still left thefloor at the half way mark on thewrong end of a 31-25 count.

CHANGES MADE

Once again the secret power ofa half time peptalk by the Wizardof Oz did the trick and after an-other six-point setback, the Blueand Gold quintet started on thelong trek towards victory . Withtwo minutes to go, the local darl-ings had managed a 54-50 lead an d1400 students were exercising theirvocal chords In true college styleas the roof started its proverbialascent.

A foul shot by Varsity, two quickbaskets by Linfield and the scoreboard read 55-54 for the 'Birds butby now, the clock was in its lastcrimson seconds . It was about thenthat Pat MeGeer picked a hole onthe right side, cut under the hoopand laved up the shot that reallycounted,

Pat finished off the scoring witha foul shot that brought his totalfor the night's work to 10 . Through -out the game, Harry Kermode wasa tower of strength both on de-fence and on the attack, scoring15 points .SEE-SAW TILT

The Saturday night affair wasslightly different in that it wasthe Linfield squad that had to domost of the catching-up . A see-saw first half saw the 'Birdme non top of a 21-17 count when the yleft the floor . Shooting up to tha tpoint was anything but hot andthe checking was tight .

Once again it was Ron Weberwho was leading the scoring at -tack as he accounted for 10 ofthe first 16 points that the Blue andGold squad netted .

The second half made up forthe deficiency in scoring of thefirst half when both teams opened'up and started hitting the hoopwith some regularity . At one point ,the 'Bird squad built up a 41-30lead only to see the scoreboardread 43-all a few minutes latter .

However, this was only the sig-nal for the local darlings to startanother assault on the Wildcatcage. Five straight baskets servedthe purpose and although the visi-tors tried to come back, the Blueand Gold squad came through withtwo more baskets to put the gameon ice.

HAAS WORKS WELLThe work of pivot man Bobby

Haas was watched with interest asthe lofty 'Birdman played tw ogreat games . He notched sevenpoints in the fi rst half of the firstgame and added ten in the secon dtilt . Pat McGeer was playing h iusual good game netting 14 of th ebest in the Saturday night do .

Senior B's Take

Dowling Quintet

Showing no ill effects fro mChristmas exams and merry -making, the Senior B hoop squadtrounced the Dowling team t othe tune of 33-24, in a fast an dfurious game on Friday night . TheBees were at the short 'end of a13-12 count at half time, but the youtscored the opposition 20-8 i nthe final two sessions, displayinga great deal of fire and, spiritthroughout the contest .

High man in the point depart-ment for Varsity was Frank My -Irea, who rang the bell four times ,plus half a ring for a free shot ,for a total of a large 9for th eevening. Mylrea has made a habi tleading the B boys in netting thethe melon thus far in the season .

The Bees got off to a slow startthis sason, and their pre-Christ-mas showings left much to be de -

sired. But if they continue to dis-play the same calibre of hooplawhich they displayed on Frida ynight, the boys hope to wind upnear the top of the loop . Any-thing can happen in the play-offs .

The Blue and Gold ferns con-tinued their winning pace through-out the second half to notch 12more counters to their opponents'7, and leave the floor with a com-fortable seven point win .

Blademen Edge Out Nanaim oIn Thrilling 8-7 Overtime Fracas

Aquabolo To Be Featured

At `Y' Swimming Tourney

A mixture of hockey, shot-putting, old Aunt Sally, bas -

ketball, waterpolo, gymnastics, judo, and bronc-busting i e

what constitutes the new swim game of aquabolo .

Members of the Varsity Swim Club will get their firs t

baptism of fire in this new wild-west water sport in the first

League aquabolo game against the Vancouver YMCA Aquati c

Club This Vancouver-born game will be the feature attraction

of the Varsity-YMCA swim meet slated for Saturday night

at 8 p.m. at the "Y" .The innovation was invented b y

Norman Cox of the Vancouver Ywhose idea has been maturingfor the last nine years .

Aquabolo works like this : Ateach end of the pool there is abasket (like basketball) about onemetre (39 .37 inches to you) above

the water level . Just above th ebasket on the backboard is a gong .If you hit the gong with the ballyou get two points . If you makea basket you get one point . Butif you hit the gong and make abasket as well, your maximumpointage on the play is still two.

There are three forwards andtwo defensemen on each team. Andof course there is the ever-presen treferee who will hand out extra -ordinary stiff penalties in compari-son to other games.
