Two members of the Board o fGovernors have confirmed thatthe board is negotiating directl ywith Premier Bennett .
But they have refused to ex-plain why.
Kenneth Caple, one of theSenate appointees, said Mon-day. "The policy of the boardis to talk only through a spokes-man, either the president or theChancellor ."THE ANSWER
But when asked why theboard- was going direct]y .to thePremier, he said, "Who do youthink is the Minister of Fin-ance?"
W. A. C. Bennett is the Min-ister of Finance .
"There's your answer," he
said .Chancellor Mrs . Phyllis Ross ,
who told The Ubyssey Sundaythat the board had approache dBennett directly, refused to com-ment -further.
"I talked to somebody o nThe Ubyssey Sunday," she said ,"and I have nothing more t osay."

A chemist testified that thecapped glass ` had 10 per cent
alcoholic content and the bot-tle about four per cent .
The defence pointed to th e14 points Brown had scoredduring the game. He said itwas impossible for Brown t oscore that many points if hewas drinking .
The prosecutor said the scoresheet showed evidence thatBrown only scored eight points .But, he added, it is possiblethere was a mistake because

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 .

Why trek?Editor ,The Ubyssey ,Dear Sir :
I am 39 and therefore ol denough to have fathered anythree average students hereand it is hard enough for m eto finance my way myself s owhat must it be like for allthe parents of the student shere who a r e only makin garound $4,000-$7,500 .
Now, rather than concen-trate on a trek to the govern-ment, and you know that i ssimply advertising to all th eparents in the province tha tyou are leading a bunch o f"gimme a handout" and goldenyouths and maidens fair . .(corny, I know), but anywaygolden youths and maidens fai rare the last people on earth tobe asking for support from therest of the population . . . notwith everything before the mand a good education to crackoff with and good, clean-cuthandsome youths and freshmaidens . . . tain't fitting .

could be handled by the indi-vidual student for about $1,00 0a year and going out, in Can-ada or the U .S., to earn a goodsalary of not less than $5,000or $6,000 after six months ora year at least . . . it wouldn' ttake. , any time to pay off t h eloan on easy payments and th esatisfaction of having carrie doneself would mean great satis-faction .

important that the kids should

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 .

Federalfinancesrequired
By RON BITER
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 . "
Message of thanksMr. and Mrs . Allan Find-
lay and son Allan G . wish tothank the members . of thefaculty . and students of theUniversity of British Colum-bia who sent kind expres-sions of sympathy followingthe accident which took thelife of their daughter andsister, , the late LorraineCarol Findlay. Thank youmost sincerely .

Friday noon, Dietrich Luthstood on his box in front of th elibrary and called on studentsto shqw their support for Pres -ident Macdonald's campaign formore money .
"We have to show the presi -dent we're with him," he tol dabout 1,000 students .
"We have to show peopleeverywhere that we're willingto fight for our University . "
Luth was interrupted oncewhen a large dog wandered ou tin front of him, sat down andstarted scratching.
"This is the kind of apathywe have to g e t away from,"Luth said.
"We could tie up the wholecity of Victoria in a few hours, "he said, "as long as there areenough of us .
"We can do anything as lon gas we do something ."
