BILLIONAIRE’S BALL TREMENDOUS SUCCESS 4 /a

The first full-scale on-campus social function sponsored by the Engineering Society is now a part of history and a colourful part. Th.e “Billionaire’s Ball” last Saturday night attracted 107 couples to Seagram Gym where they witnessed the crowning of Marolyn Brohman as Miss Engineer of 1959’ Winter Quarter and spent a very enjoyable evening dancing amid the splendid decor supplied by Bill Lennox and crew for the occasion.

WATERLOO WATERLOO, Feb. 27. - An

attempted raid by f 01ur Queen’s students was foiled when the WC&AF Constable spotted .their car and inter- cepted the four before they had a chance to do anything.

Leo Reitzel, the campus security officer and several student.s gave chase to the midnight intruders and apprehended two of them. Thomas McQueen, 191, and John McIntosh, 18, both of Galt, said that, the intention was to put up a flag on the pole in front of Willison Hall. Although the flag was carried off by the other two when they escaped into the night it was described as being a bed- sheet with the words Queen’s University printed on it.

The names and addresses of both students were taken but they were not held and no charges were laid.

Constable Reitzel said that he was starting his rounds when he noticed a car pull up at the south side of the Arts building. Four people got out and headed for the dormitories at Willison Hall. The constable noted the license of’ the car and then I drove around to Willison Hall and solicited the help of some of the students who were still up. when he went out- side again the four broke up. Waterloo students chased ,two back to the car and Constable Reitzel used his truck to block their escape.

The setting complemented the title, the emphasis being on money. Bills of large and small denominations, phoney unfortun- ately, were strewn throughout the hall and it was not uncommon to see cigarettes being lit from candles stuck in bottles labelled with $25,000 bills. An elaborate dais bearing a regally decorated Grey and Gold throne and a large illuminated champagne glass, complete with bubbles, were out- standing gems in a truly beautiful setting.

Guests were welcomed to the “Ball” by President and Mrs. J. G. Hagey, Dean of Engineering, Dr. and Mrs. G. 0. Wright, Engineer- ing Society President Jack Kruuv and his guest, Miss Norma Mun- roe, and Mr. -and Mrs. Bill Mc- Grattan.

Master of ceremonies Bill Len- nox introduced the candidates for Miss Engineer early in the eve- ning. The five candidates were Miss Dianne Busby, Kitchener, Miss Pat Baldwin, Burlington, Miss Marolyn Brohman, Kitch- ener, Miss Betty Gallagher, Or- angeville, and Miss Gerry Le- mieux, Noranda, P.Q.

After a very close vote, the title was awarded to Miss Marolyn Brohman, an 18-year-old native of Kitchener presently attending St. Mary’s High School. Miss Broh- man was’ crowned by Sharon Gueguen, Miss En&eel* of 195i Summer Qu.arter, and presented with a bouquet of roses by Dr. Wright. Jack Kruuv presented Marolyn with a sterling silver engraved bracelet from the En- gineering Society and Bill Mc- Grattan presented her with a jewel box, gift of S.L.E. The high- light of the presentations, how- ever, came when Mr. Kruuv very solemnly bestowed on Miss Broh- man the symbol of her reign over the Engineers - a “solid gold” plunger! - following which the Engineers gave forth with a stirring rendition of the chorus from the “Engineer’s Hymn”.

The entire evening was a huge success and much credit must be given to Messrs. Lennox and Pa- jur along with their band of hard- working assistants for producing such a good show first time around. It may get bigger in years to come but it will have a hard time getting any better.

1 1 c c :overed for this paper. n n To follow along the same style 1 1 t t ;hat Dr. Stanton used in ‘his ‘fam- 2 2 c c )us editorial, I thin@& too, may r f r f Xrly claim to have a neutral J r J r oackground.

1 1 torial, and refer to the letter to the editor received last week from

e e Dr. Stan+, I question certain s / s / statements that indicate that -this I / I /

!I paper is biased. The quotation

, used in section (2) of this letter came ffom an article of mine, four editions ago. The quotation may be’emotional, as suggested by Dr.

, Stantpn, but hardly biased. I said L that the Arts represeqtative to L the S.L.E. had apparently failed , , in a worthy cause. Dr. St’a.nton

agrees that union is a worthy CRUST, and that both sides are in favour of it. But did my article indicate that it was -entirely the fault of the Engineers that the efforts of the Artsmen had failed? In my opinion, and as the facts show it, both Sides. were at. fault,

The one thing most people seem to believe is that th&rt ,’ . . is a great deal of money at’ a university. By this they imply

that university is a place for the rich only. Whfie it is true ’ . I that rnpsp students’ fathers have a higher than average income

it. is,‘also tr& fhat many students would hock their ivoq p - i ‘tower for a few hundred dollaps so that the year would no1

\ .There is the thought that “those who really want to car always go to college”. How we wish that it was true. FOI many the thought of the first’ yea+ is too Imuch and .fron high school graduation they turn to the first job that can bc

. found. Others go to work with the firm’conviction that after c -a couple of years they will have enough money to return tr

/ roughly 30 percent of th,e high school graduates who are aca detiically qualified to go to college. Out df @is group onI1 8 percent are financially qualified to go. More shocking is the

If the avoidance of the third class students was delib&atl < / then if was erroneous. We do not believe that these report

Third class‘ students make up roughly 40 percent of the total university undergraduate population in Canada. As such the? cannot be ignored. We reiterate the last clause of the

The cost of this building was $15.6 per square foot ? while the cost of Carleton’s new building was approximately $21 to $22, ,per square foot. Although Carleton has a very beautiful building we can still boast that our building is air conditioned and that their’s, is not.

Recently the newspapers have been full of reactions following the games that Canada’s representative in the World Hockey Tournament have played in Europe. Criticisms of the Belleville McFarlands ranges from one of “dirty play” to poor representatives of our national game.

This is so much nonsense to me. The criticisms are un- called for a.nd are probably the result of inferior teams trying to make alibis

Here, in Canada we learn to play one kind of hockey; over in the Qld Countries they learn an entirely different set of rules. It is impossible for any Canadian team to compete under European rules and forget what they have been taught since they were six years old. And so when the Belleville team uses some good hard bodychecks, as much a part of Canadian hockey as the puck is, he can hardly be criticized. As for dirty play, if some of the European players saw Gordie Howe and Lou Fontanato slugging it out, they would probably faint from horror.

To add to these articles, one George Dudley, a C.A.H.A, official, sent word over for the Belleville players to take it easy. This was definitely a poor move. If Mr. Dudley wants them to play that kind of hockey, then he should bring these rules into Canadian hockey.

I am sure that the Canadian entries in the world tourna- ment do not care if they ever play the pse-tournament games It isn’t any practice to defeat a team 17-3 or 20-O. Besides, the games are played outdoors in cold weather. The only way to keep warm is by ducking snowballs thrown by fans whc are yelling that Canada’s players are poor sports.

The only solution I can see is contained in the old adage “you might just as well have the game as the name”. We should send over a team consisting of Maurice Richard on right wing, Ted Lindsay on left wing and Jean Beliveau at centre. On defense we could have Lou Fontinato and Goegan. Then when someone pelted a snowball at “Leaping Lou”, he would have no qualms about swinging his club and levelling half a dozen hecklers. The other members of the team could follow suit.

This would lead to a riot and international controversies would arise. Charges would fly back and forth, newspapers would have headlines. Then the Italians or Germans or Swedes could say justly that we were a dirty team.

I hope that the Canadian representatives win the tourna- ment. And I also hope that they clobber the respective tearm into the ice; I remember that Penticton, a few years ago, did just that. I hope Belleville will profit by their example.

Last Saturday, a Waterloo Col- lege table tennis team journeyed to the University of Toronto cam- pus in response to an invitation to participate in a tournament which they were sponsoring.

The final tabulation of results showed the winners to be Mc- Master followed by University of Toronto, Waterloo, Ryerson and Osgoode. The competition was so evenly matched that one more series win by any of our players would have put us in a first place tie.

The tournament was arranged so that the number one man from each squad played a best of five series with the number one man on each of the other squads. Simi- larly, the number two men played each other and so on down the list. Number one man on our team was Fred Rhese who won three out of his four matches against the toughest opposition present. Tom Ramautarsingh was no less spectacular, winning all four of his matches in the number two category. Alf Spricenieks, although the least experienced player on the team, played in the number three division as a result of an error in calculation. In spite of playing four evenly matched series, Alf was unable to win three out of five games in any one of them. Ron Berenbaum played in the number four spot winning two series matches and losing two. Larry Rotman, who originally in- tended to be the mascot, consented to play in the number five spot and won three out of four matches.

Following the tournament our very generous hosts provided a most enjoyable banquet which topped off an exciting and enter- taining afternoon.

ROUND’ and ROUND with Bob Enns

Not so very long ago, a moder- ately successful Broadway show was introduced to the public; it was “West Side Story”. One of the highlights of the show is the fresh, inspired and different music of Leonard Berstein. You won’t hear anything like it in any other musical playing on Broadway nor will you hear anything like it in the works of other composers, for Mr. Berstein never seems to run out of ideas of his own.

This, his latest Broadway effort, is by no means his only produc- tion; he has done the music for “On the Town” and “Fancy Free”, two great box-office successes and he composed the background mu- sic for “On the Waterfront”.

Just before “West Side Story” he did the music for “Candide”, a comic-operetta based on Vol- taire’s novel of the same name. A smash success with critics, it turned out to be a smash flop with the public but this is due mostly to the rather deep philosophical nature of the story. One thing very noticeable in the music from “Candide” is the unusual rhythms which he employs. At first the music may seem rather bizarre but gradually you find yourself picking out favourite passages until the whole’ production be- comes as familiar as an old friend.

Well, if you think this is a lot of work, you don’t know the half of it. He composed the music for

This is the last issue of The Cord Weekly until March 25. At that time the final issue of Volume One will be published. The Cord Weekly would appreciate any material that students wish to submit. Remember that Easter is March 29 and timely material is always acceptable. The deadline for all copy will be Thursday, March 18, but the editors would appre- ciate any work before then as they anticipate a heavy load of material.

!wo ballets, another movie and nas done several instrumental works as well. His face is familiar to all those who have watched “Omnibus” and recently he has appeared on television on Satur- day afternoons giving children a glimpse into the world of classical music. To my mind, he has done more than anyone else to make music more understandable for the thousands of viewers who have enjoyed his musical lectures so much. Without mentioning his other work, this is an accomplish- ment which is capable of standing on its own merit.

By now you may have guessed that Mr. Berstein is a conductor also; in fact he is the conductor

Y of Psychology at McMaster Uni- versity: Professor Kamin received his Ph.‘D: at Harvard iri 1954. He wasa Research Associate’ at MC: Gill University in Montreal and, has also taught at Que7en’s. t

His topic, “How Experimental, Work Helps ,To Understand ‘the Nature of Mental Illness”, should be ,of great interest to many stu: dents on campus. ExperimentA work is something which we” at W&erloo have not had the oppor- tunity “to indulge in, and Prof. Kamin,‘s ,speebh shpuld shed some interesting light -on the. subject. In connection with the speech, there will be a, display of experi- mental equ$ment in rooms 304 and. 306.

Some of this equipment will pertain ’ to I human development, mirror drawing,’ depth perception, and visual perimeter. The oppor- tunities to see this sort of equip- ment are very limited on this campus, and, students might be well advised to attend this, lecture by an eminent professor and at the same time learn something about equipment which they ha+e read about in their Psychology texts. ,

This money has been held by the Administration pending some so- lution to the Arts - Engineering feud,. The total amount was granted to them, minus the N.F.- C.U.S. fees :which had not been 1 deductedi . . I,

It was pointed out that, in view of the, fact that the S.LE’. had given presents to the Queens of the other two major balls; it would be in keeping with this tradition to pu>rchase a gift for Miss Engineer in spite of the fact that .she is’ not ‘necesqarily enroll- ed at th,e ‘college. There was some difference of opinion over this issue, but it’ was finally “con- ceded I that Miss Engineer de- served some .recognitio.n from the S&E> .’ ‘.’ .

The. P. &-G. Deficit Report .was given by Bob Scott. It w’as pointed out by Mr. Scott that although P. & G. I went in the hole to the tune of $319, we have some’very dennite assets which should not be overlooked: This year’s P. & G. bore the entire cost of the stage, thus it belongs to us and will be available for many year* to come. There is also how for the first time+ a complete set of grease paints which should last for some .time. The requisite money_ was ’ voted to P. & G.~ to Cover the deficit. This money is to be taken from the Resetie Jj’b&j. - ; ~

What is the campus of Waterloo University j really : going’ to look like? Is the present Chemistry building a goo.d .example ~ of’ the style of i the future buildings? These were the questions in the minds of two of<The Cord Weekly reporters as the/y interviewed ‘Mr. E. M. Brookes. last., Friday, Mr. Brookes asked, I the Editor .,of the newspaper to $ome and see ,Him shortly after the editorial, ‘,which described’ the: Chemistry building as ‘a cheese box, was printed. <As ti result of this interview the. re- porters were sent to interview Mr: Brooke:. It was ‘made very plain that this was not,7. an attempt on the‘ part of a member ‘of the Ad- ministration to infringe on the freedom of the ‘press on the cam- pus but was rather the’ desire to enlighten the student body with thei future campus plans. 1 The most impres,sive ’ point brought out in the interview was the method used to plan the cam-’ pus. The use .of what is known as the cell system of planning will give the campus ‘a beauty and utility not otherwise attainable., This, cell system involves the, con- struction of the buildings in small groups. Each group of buildings will be, built ’ around , a centre which will likely be’s large land- scaped ared circumscribed by, the buildings in such a way as to .pro- duce , a unit in itself. Each, cell will\be mhde up of buildings per- tinent to one group of courses, faculty, a college or buildings of a. similar use. This wo,uld mean that the engineering and ’ science buildings might make up one eel1 while the arts and faculty build- ings might .make up another cell thus eliminating as, far. as possible the, necessity to run from one end of the campus to the other to get to’ the next class. The cell’system also allows the useI of various architectural styles on the same campus.’ It is possible ,with this. method of planning to use one style on one group of buildings and use an entirely different style I on another group., In this way’ the campus will have variety in its design as well as a certain amount of qontinuity.

.The cell system .also lends itself suctessfully , to the creation of highlights-throughout the campus. In each cell there will be one building or feature w.hich will predominate that area., Then -aga’in there will be one cell which will be--the highlight’of the entire campus. ‘This’ is likely to be the cell containing the Administra’tion

II I 205. KING ST. E: KITCHENER I

juilding, Library, Convocation’ Hall and the Student Union build- ing-the ,campus centre. This cell may be situhted in subh a ‘way 2s’ to catch -your eye ‘no ma.tter where you are on the campus or 2 t a low point by the creek in g?ph a manner a; to capture a serene rather than a spectacular atmosphere. The architectural style of these buildings will be sue+ “3; -to demand your attention.

Throughout the whole‘ of the planning qf our new campus pri- ority is to be *given to the ,use of the natural. landscape whi’ch al- ready exists. Every tree on the campus at the present-will be left there if at ‘all possible and the stream which runs. ’ across the property will be utilized to the fullest of its potentials, There is a possibility that it may be dammed and flooded to form a lake as a landscape feature of the campus centre. On the new campus landscaping will be used to form--the main be&ties and every precaution is rgoing to be taken to ensure that it does,

Another surprising point is the> extreme attention that is being given to the problem of vehicular traffic on the campus. At all times the pedestrian is being given con

DAILY SPECIAL5

sideration over the vehicle.’ The’ roads are being planned to segre-0 , gate traffic on the campus as much, : as possible. Dearborn street is to . be re-routed to skirt the capmpus :4 r rather than runriing through the centre of it. With the use of the cell system it i.s possible to u:::c j’,xGt 0l-l~ ~w.d for the servicing> of the entire grc;tii;i .$ birli.Z.: -cGL instead of one for e;lch building. This attention will create a cam- pus which is quiet and also safe for the pedestriribn, especially for the; lovesick and daydreamihg.

You’ may now .ask the question, ’ why the presetit style ‘of archi- tecture was’ chosen. We asked ’ ; Mr. Brookes and after thinking ,.( about it for a few minutes we ’ received the answer. The main - ‘.

of reason I, course j is cost. _ The ’ money available has limited., the ’ construction to the essehtials and / ‘.

has made it nece&ry to elimi- . nate the fancy frills ‘which some 4 desire. The Chemistry building was planned with a. careful eye on ‘the functional necessities at some cost to the aesthetics, though, a restrained dignity has been, re- ’ tained. Modular constructionwas employed to assure fast erection and simplicity of design was, re-* I d
