MEETING S(Continued from page 1 )

Asked to comment on thestory, Percy R. Bengough, agovernment - appointed gover-nor, said, "You'll have to askMrs . Ross . "

But when questioned further ,he said, "Lay off asking aboutthe negotiations, will you? "

Bengough and Caple both de-nied rumors that the Board i sa government tool .

"That's foolish," said Ben-aough. "The Board is as muchconcerned as anybody about thesituation . "

"We are trying to get moneyfor you, the students," sai dCaple .

"I think the board is workin gfor the good of UBC and n oone else," he said angrily .

The two governors backed u pstudent action now being take nto get more money from th egovernment . But they didn' tfeel it would be much use .

"The action won't hurt any-thing, and the students have theright to do it," said Bengough .

"We ask that a supplementaryI estimate be introduced to bringthe operating grant of the uni-versity of B .C. to the amoun trequested by the president, Dr .John B. Macdonald and theBoard of Governors .

"We are sincerely concerne dover the gravity of the situa-tion . "

No secrets,

just privacyThe Board of Governor s

-isn't holding secret ' meeting s—just private ones .

So says R. R. Jeffels ,former aide to Dr . John Mac-donald and now the new reg- _istrar for Victoria College .

He said the Board's affair swere private as in all privat eenterprise companies .

"Their negotiations withthe provincial government fo rmore money have certainl ynot been secret as the down -town newspapers and TheUbyssey have charged .

He said students shouldneither trek nor strike unti lnegotiations with the provin-cial government are com-pleted .

BUSES(Continued from page 1 )

for other students the committe ehopes will return home durin gthe three-day boycott of the Uni-versity .

Transportation both ways wil lbe paid by the Alma Mater So-ciety .

He said anyone who wants tocanvass in their home areas i srequested to phone CA 4-324 2local 46-7, or call at the com-mittee rooms in South Brock

I suggest that if you want t odo any trekking- . . . and it i sa good idea, O.K., may I sug-gest that you trek down to th ehead office of the CanadianBank of Commerce at Hasting sand Granville and back themanager up into a corner andask him what his requirementsa r e for extending a line ofcredit to students . . . all theusual safeguards . . . goodacademic records . . . goodcharacter, etc . . . . but not im-possible academic records lik ejust a steady pass studentwould be O.K . . . . then if youget a snow job you could lineup 50 or 100 students at eac hteller's-wicket and just changea buck each, slowly, and thenchange the change back intoa buck and . tie up the banklong enough to have the TVcameras grinding and the newsmedia hysterical and N .

Dr, John Macdonald says thefederal and provincial govern-ments should share the respon-sibility for higher education inCanada.

He said Sunday in a radi oaddress that the provincial gov-ernments should assume prim-ary responsibility for the costof undergraduate education .

The federal governmen tshould then bear the financin gof education at the graduate andprofessional levels, he added .

The cost of higher education ,he said, is a national problemend requires a national solu-tion .

COLLEGES ENDANGERED

"The federal gover? ment willneed to participate more ef-fectively than it has been re-quired to in the past .

'Thus I suggest the federalgovernment assume the re-sponsibility for graduate andp r o fessional education, " Dr .Macdonald said.

Earlier in the weekend, Dr .Macdonald warned a Kelownaconference on B .C.'s crisis inhigher education that bickeringcould kill the junior college pro -posed for the Okanagan Valley .

He urged valley residents t oovercome their differences andplan. a two-year college on aregional basis .

The Macdonald Report call sfar- a junior college serving th eOkanagan to be established i nthe Kelowna area .

There are reports of frictionamong the major valley com-munities over the site of thecollege .

HIDDEN FRICTIO NThis friction lay just beneath

the surface of the conferenc ewhich :Dr . Macdonald addressedSaturday.

The conference approved aresolution empowering a steer-ing committee of the Okanagan-Mainline university associatio nto :

"Plan with the provincialgovernment in . the establish-ment of higher education facili-ties for this region."

A high official of the associa-tion was later asked why theresolution did not specificallymention backing the MacdonaldReport .

"The report calls for the col-lege in Kelowna," he said, "Wewould have had a dog-fight a tthe conference over it . "
