Guest Editoria lThere is an old-fashioned word that used to be the most hon-

* ured in education, but isn ' t heard much in university circle s

today—which could explain a lot .

We wonder if instructors, complaining of their students being

unthinkable herds, wouldn ' t see more reponse if this word and

1tS meaning were given some attention in this grist mill .

The word is wisdom.

Wisdom is a good word. You still hear it amongst old folks

and encounter it in literature . We still highly compliment a

Iran if we call him wise—and in Christian circles, where they

take their language and thought from the Bible, wisdom is a

very meaningful word .

'" Why then is it so seldom employed in our campus thinking

today? Are we so befuddled that we are afraid to draw evalua-tive judgements which might mount as wisdom ?

Wisdom is the same as knowledge. Perhaps that is why the

word lacks usage . In an institution which chases after the facts

and processes of science, how best to use that knowledge re-

ceives scant attention . It would seem to be a weakness of th e

philosophers who 've got themselves so befuddled with seman-tical trivia and metaphy .ical uncertainty that they pay scan t

attention to what their nane says they love. We need more true

philosophy—the love of wisdom.

-There are those without much learning, but have great wis-

dom and are sought for advice by friends and strangers alike .And there are others who deserve that contempt the world

often throws at university people: "educated fools", It isn ' tknowledge, then, that gives wisdom, but a quality of judgementin the use of knowledge, such that the end result is constructiv e

arid good.

Wisdom is supposed to come with years ; maybe it does .Freshmen at about this stage of the acedemic year are usuall y

first emerging from awe into conceit that they are the educated

elite . But seniors are wondering" how they could have learned

so little ih four or five years with which to face the hard world

next spring. That is a kind of wisdom that grows perennially,

hnd it has a broader- reflection in all of life .

It is said "a wise man learns from the mistakes of others ,Most learn from their own, but a fool never learns " and so age

is no sure cure for folly: Some kids we know are wise littl epeople, and the papers are constantly reporting old folks gulledout of their life savings.

Wisdom, . perhaps, is the difference between our knowledg eand surpluses feeding the hungry in Bengal, and sharing wit hthe great powers that fascination with the moon which gav elunacy its name .

We might just straighten out a lot of the messes facing us i f

we'd try Solomon's counsel . "Wisdom", wrote that wisest ofmen, "is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all

Thatgetting, get understanding . Exalt her, and she shall promot e

thee; she shall bring thee to honor, when thou dost embrace

her ."

1 "And the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, " he also'eclared .

LETTER SEditor ,

Dear Sir :I have read with interest a

letter written by Len Geddesdealing with my address to thestudents on the 15th of Octo-ber. I am grateful to Mr. Ged-des for having taken the troubleto write at some length aboutthis address and particularl ybecause he does point up on eof the continuing dilemmas o fa free society. I am whole-heartedly in favour of maxi-mum freedom for each indivi-dual, and I am temperamentallyopposed to censorship and re-strictions upon freedom . I doinsist, however, that as long ashuman beings live in associa-tion with each other they mus taccept responsibility for theuseful and efficient organiza-tion of society and they must ,in their own interests, and fo rthe enjoyment of maximu mfreedom, accept discipline .This is as true of speech an dbehaviour as it is true of traf-fic or sanitary regulations .

One of the objectives of aneducation is the developmentof human beings in a manne rwhich ensures that much ofthis discipline and censorshipbecomes self-discipline and i sexercised by the individua lhimself on the basis of his ownjudgment and his own stan-dards of value . But, even in aUtopia, where there may be n olaws and no government, thes ebasic facts or principles re re-sponsibility and discipline willremain true . The only escap efrom them., as far as I canjudge, is to live the life of ahermit in complete isolatio nfrom all other human beings.

However, I hope that the dis-cussion of this and similar mat-ters will Continue - and increase ,for' this,-too; is one of the func-

not and, indeed, cannot lie i ninstitutional modifications. Weare what we are . But withinthe limitations of our society ,we can take steps to" expan dand improve ov : existing pro-gram .

These pro,rams have bee nfar from generous. It has beenestimated, for example, tha tthe Communists in one singlepropaganda offensive — t h egerm-warfare campaign duringthe Korean conflict — spen tnearly as much as the entire .annual allocation to the Unite dStates Information Agency . Weshould increase the austere bud-get of the U .S .I .A. We shouldgive our information specialistsa greater voice in policy-mak-ing councils . We should attemp tto co-ordinate more fully andeffectively the propaganda pro-grams of the Western alliance .

But we shall only move t othe brink of disaster if wedelude ourselves that thesemeasures by themselves can bea substitute for sound foreignand defense policies . Our suc-cess in countering Soviet psy-chological strategy hinges notso much on what we say as onwhat we do in the way o fclosing the gaps in our over-alldefense posture. We must rec-ognize that Communist pys-chological warfare proceed sfrom firm policy positions ,whereas the loosely coordinatedand all too often divided Westis uncertain of . its' purposesand the means of achievin gthem.

We must recognize, converse .ly the vulnerabilities of ourenemy. Soviet leadership facesmany serious problems with-in, the , Communist orbit —problems which offer openingsfor a purposeful Western coun-ter-strategy. Foremost is thefact that the cohesiveness of theCommunist bloc is an imageof Soviet propoganda ratherthan a political and ideologicalreality . While we must checkthe further advance of commun-ism through effective foreignand military policies, our trans-cendent objective must be toreach the minds of the Comemunist peoples and to increas epublic pressures upon theSoviet dictatorship .

The Editor,Dear Sir:

Having just read the articl eon the front page concerningthe case of the negro girl be-ing refused admission to a 'sorority in Toronto, I mustcommend the Ubyssey for itscourage and forthright inten-tions in reprinting the item.For years, the Ubyssey has pro-tected the best interests ofU.B.C. students by reportingthe truth about these odious ,undemocratoic societies . .

Allow me therefore, to addsome views which I believewill properly solve the prob-lem of removing these clubsfrom our campus once an dfor all . Force all fraternitiesand sororities to give up thei rchapter charters. This willnecessitate the sale of the exist-ing fiat houses . The Universitycould require the the house son campus be sold for $1 .0 0per $10.00 of appraised valueto the Alma Mater Society.These houses could then b eturned over to the few saneand useful clubs left on thecampus: International House,'Critics Circle, Dance Club, -Etc .Let us all join in voice to ridthe campus of these discrimin-atory bands of snobbish stu-dents .

Soviet Studen tWarns The West

• .

By DOUG PARKINSONPresident, Canadian University Press

Since the advent of sputnik there has been a growing fearthat Khrushchev may try to "bury" us under an avalancheof textbooks .

The recent visit of the vice-presiden tCouncil of the USSR. did nothing to alleviate

Short, friendly, and sharp-witted, Igor Biriukov calml ywarned a special assembly ofSaskatchewan university stu-dents that his countrymen ar etrying to make the Soviet Unio n"the most educated, and riches tcountry in the world . "

Biriukov was the first studen trepresentative to visit Canada ,and while he managed to visi tuniversities in Montreal, Toron-to, London and Ottawa, his mainpurpose was to attend the recentNFCUS congress iri Saskatoon .

The 33-year-old vice-presiden tspoke with obvious zeal, "Weare going to overtake the Unite dStates, and when we say thiswe are quite right, for we d othis for the bettermen of ourcountry, and of the world . "

His calm assertion that theSoviet system will eventuallybe the superior one,' does no tstem entirely from the fact tha the is in the higher echelon o fstudent life . The Soviet educa-tion system has made grea tstrides, and is at this momentundergoing further revisions .

This is an age• in which :Scien-tists are deemed to be of para-mount importance, and theSoviet Union . appears to be out-stripping us in the number, an dperhaps even quality, of scien-tists graduating from its 800 uni-versities and institutes each year;some 90,000 engineers a yearcompared to 30,000 in the UnitedStates, and 2,100 in Canada lastyear .

Hard on the heels of tangibleSoviet success in science camethe North American movementfor education reform . But nosooner had a frustrated publi ccried for regeneration—with aneye to the Soviet system—thanKhrushchev began to change hi sown system, claiming it to beinadequate .EDUCATION REVISE D

Following the twentieth partycongress in 1956 education wa srevised in the Soviet Union . Acertain number of hours a weekwere set aside for students in th elast three years of the ten-yearschools so that they might re-ceive practical training in agri-culture, and industry . Compul-sory ten-year schools located inthe larger cities—providing com-bined lower and secondary edu-cation—taught the students the ywere ready for university at 17or 18. Compulsory eight-yea rschools — formerly seven-yea rschools—were restricted to smal-ler towns, and villages .

In 1957 this plan was broad-ened on an experimental basi sso . students could spend threedays a week in school, and thre edays in agriculture or industry ;

The new wing to the bio-logical building will be name dfor Professor C . McLean Fraser ,the first head of the zoology de-partment .

This has been approved by th eboard of governors .

Professor Fraser was an ex-pert on the marine life of th ePacific. He was educated a tToronto and the University o fIowa .

specializing in their particularinterests . The ten-year schooleducation was then extended byone year furnishing the studen twith . a three-year labor-poly-technical or labor-vocationa leducation . Apparently the re-sults of this experiment prove dsatisfactory . Soon all schools willbe run on this eleven-year basis :

Polytechnical schools provid ea very general branch of studiesafter the eighth year, whereasvocation schools are more spe-cific and delve deeper into tech-nical aspects of such subjects asindustrial sculpturing. Graduatesof either school may enter uni-versity or institutes which areon the same level .

LABOUR REQUIRE DAt one stage of this revision

all students—without exception—were required to indulge insome form of manual labor fora set period, after completing theeight-year school . Protests madeby the students, and parents —some of whom were influential— caused modification of thisstep, so that the system of elevenyear schools was maintainedwith the final three years spli tbetween class, and practical ap-plication in industrial and agri-cultural subjects .

One. of. the reasons for thiswork-as-you-learn scheme mightbe the lack of space in universi-ties 'and institutes . New workersrequire training which takestime, and there is no excess ofskilled men to help with thistask. Now experienced recruit swill enter full-time jobs . Becauseso many people—who could notread a few years ago—are nowbeing educated, Khrushchevmust pacify those who cannotenter universities because of thelimited facilities. He has toldthem that they are not inferiorto those who go on, but are aid-ing in constructing a Communis tsociety .

To aid in qualifying studentsfor such work, course changesare being made. There will bemore training in foreign lang-uages, geography, - history, andnatural science, as well as in-creased attention given to mathe-matics and physics . In schoolsoutside of the Russian Republicboth the native and Russian lan-guages are compulsory, as wellas a choice of English, Germa nand French. Graduates of theeight-year system may take eve-ning or correspondence courseswhich' are the equivalent of thethree-year labor-•polytechnical o rvocational day school education ,

By IAN CAMPBELL

The formation of the Squash Club on campus is the first. -step towards making squash a major sport at UBC .

It is one of the best ways of solving the athletic problem a tUBC, since it will give everyone the chance of a complete workoutin half an hour . The tremendous interest already expressed in th eEastern colleges is sure proof that the popularity of the game isgrowing in the West . At McGill, more students play squash thanany other sport : fifteen courts are' kept in constant use .NEED COURT S

We need courts on the campus . The authorities tell us thatSquash courts are going to be built on campus sometime—as usua lno dates are mentioned . ,

If facilities are available, will students use them? Take a lookat McGill . And women enjoy it as much as men . Members of theFaculty have expressed interest in playing .

The forty students playing this year have plenty to interest.Competitionwise, there are eight tournaments in which UBC willbe represented, four of which are held in Vancouver .CITY LEAGUE FOR UB C

A Vancouver Squash League is starting out with UBC, theYMCA, and the Vancouver Racquets Club competing . In additionwe are sending a five man team to play the University of Washing.ton late in November . Intramurally, competition will be keen forthe top spot in the Squash ladder .

-BEGINNERS GET HEL P

The beginner will find the game_ quick to pick up . In thetournament there are four classes ranging from beginner to extiert ,and he will be playing people of his own ability . The coriipetitionshould quickly raise the standard of squash at UBC .

Anyone who is interested in playing the game is asked tocontact Squash Club captain Chris Scott at AM 6-8471 about 6':30any evening .

played as the score might indicate .What they were up against

-was - the hottest team in theEvergreen Conference . Whatbeat them was the long aeria lpasses of a respected quarter-back named Denny Spurlock t ohis pet receiver, Bil Cole .

"Pass interceptions hurt us" .stated Gnup . The Spokane clu bpicked-off seven of JonMorris 'spirals .

Only once in the 60of football did theChampions fly withindistance .

Fine catches by Dave Bar-ker and Wayne Osborne pu tthem ' there . The alert Whitworthdefence snuffed out the drive.

"They really played us tough "added Frank. "Our defensiveline played a hard, sockinggame,it was those long passe sthat hurt us."

SOVIET STUDEN T(Continued from page 4 )

as well as evening courses o nthe university level .

EVERYONE ELIGIBL EEveryone is eligible for uni-

versity entrance once they havecompleted the lower school, al-though there are two main re-quirements : entrance exams ,conducted by professors and re-presentatives of the students,and work experience in industry .This latter point is not a neces-sity, but is a definite aid to en=trance, as a certain percentag eof entrants must come fromyouth with factory experience .

Biriukov gave a reason forthis, "It is important that th estudent should know what he isgoing to do, and not enter bio-logy, only to discover that heshould have been a musician . "He agreed that preference woul dbe given to those with full-timework experience of at least ayear . "If I, and another fellowwere taking the exams, and weboth had the same marks, buthe had worked, he would getin . "

At the university level thereis another split in the study cur-riculum . Those in heavy scienc ecourses receive a special studydispensation to allow two orthree years of initial work-freetime at university, but must gai npractical experience followingthe introductory study of theory .Exceptions are also made fo rtalented students who receivetheir formal education as soonas possible, and then concentrateon their specific interests .

General courses at universityare five years in length. In thefirst year students spend muc h

` !oaf their time on humanities, bu tby the fourth year they takemore technical subjects pertain-ing to their specialization . Histo-rical and dialectical materialismare,iompulsery in all years . Inthe last year they. write a thesi s

s;,while holding- ajob.itt their spe -cific area, be it teaching or engi-neering . At present not all stu-dents hold robs while attendingsZhbgl, but plans are being madeto increase this working time, s omost students will work part-time during first two years .

The school term. begins Sep-tember 1, and there are no hell-

days until a study period whic hstarts January 1 prior to themid-year exams. Following theend of these exams on January28, there is a ten-day vacatio nperiod, and then back to th ebooks until the June 20 examswhich last until July 3 .

STUDENTS AIDE DRussian students . pay no tui-

tion, and almost 90 per cent—only those with high marks—receive aid in the form of astipend, which takes care of thebasic needs such as accommoda-tion, laundry, and meals, as wellas organization dues and perso-nal luxuries . A student may pay15 roubles monthly for a room,and 175 roubles for meals . Thereis no need to buy books forthese can be borrowed on ayearly basis from school libra-ries. At the end of the year stu-dents must present a card show-ing that all books have been re-turned, else they will not passinto the next year .

In the first year students re-ceive 300- roubles a' month witha possibility of a 25 per centincrease in the second term, forthose with extremely goo dmarks . During the followingyears there is an increase of 50-58 roubles a month until th efourth or fifth year when th estudent may be receiving 400 -500 roubles, depending on hisacademic success .

Students at Moscow Univer-sity pointed out that if the sti-pend was not enough to keepbody and soul together, theymust rely on relatives. Since thestipends are " given for highmarks, not every student getsone .

Biriukov's only comment was,"They should study harder . "
