WE'RE SORRY

Student Progressive Conser-vative Club was adjudged "stil lcapable of bringing its ownspeakers to the campus" by th eCCF Club at its weekendmeeting .
After a heated debate in whichsome members charged "that we aregetting so saturated with our ownpropoganda that we fail to see theother side of the question" it was de-cided to leave Progressive Conserva-tive speakers to the Progressive Con-servative Club ,
WEAK AND TOTTERINGEx-president Murray Bryce sai d
that "while the Progressive Club i sweak and tottering it is still able tobring out the occasional speaker andwill undoubtedly welcome CCF mem-bers at ita public meetings if only tofill its auditoriums, "
At the same meeting membershipvoted to invite the "Red Dean" ofCanturbury, Hewlitt Johnson, tospeak at UBC during his tour of Can-ada and to ask Senator Glen TaylorProgressive Party Candidate for Vic ePresident of the United States to ad -dress the club .
In answer to council's refusal t opermit the club to sell literature a tits meetings, members voted to con-tinue the fight but take up a collec-tion at its meetings to enable the clu bto carry on meanwhile Twenty dollar s
and twenty one cents was collecte d
Wednesday.
Totem Extend sPhoto DeadlinesFor late Rus h
Due to an overwhelmingflood of late appointments ,Totem deadlines for graduat-ing students have been extend -ed.
The photography studios behin dBrock Hall have literally beenswamped with prospective gradu-ates who have left everything to thelast minute, and as a consequence,the cameramen have been unable t ocope with the demand for pictures .
APPOINTMENT DEADLINEIn an effort to spread this influ x
over a larger area, the photographer swill be accepting appointments todayof any faculty or department, It i semphasized that this does not mea nthat all pictures will be taken on
that day, but rather that' all
appointments must be made withinthis time .
Photography studios are located i nthe huts behind Brock Hall, and thecost to each student is $1 .50 . In re-
r turn for this sum, the graduate wil l
receive two proofs, and one mounte dportrait of his own choosing.
The deadline for appointments isnext Tuesday, October 19.

President's Speec hTo U .S . ConferenceIs Pessimistic
Our present civilization is indanger, Dr. Norman MacKen-zie told a University of Wis-consin audience recently .
UBC's president was speaking dothe moral and spiritual values o fhigher education before theNationa lEducational Conference of the U .S .A .The conference marked the openin gof the year-long centennial celebra-tion of the University of Wisconsin .
Dr . MacKenzie said civilization wil llive only if an international societyin which all people can live and wor ktogether in peace and security is or-ganized .
"Internationally, we are in theprimitive stages of organization, " h eadded ,"Western society is not givin g'enough attention 'i creating andkeeping a united people . "
"I do not believe it is enough t odamn the communists nor to suppres sten," said Dr , MacKenzie . "Our ap-peal must be to the idealistic as wel las to the practical. One of ourcommon objectives should be the es-tablishment of conditions and op-portunities for a good life here amon gmen and for all men." He added tha tthere is much education can clo i nthis field .
Admin Is NotConcerned AtAMS Spendin g
University administration is "onl yconcerned to know that universit yaffairs such as the War Memoria lGymnasium have not been delayedor impeded" acting president Dea nF.M. Clement said Monday in a state-ment on student over-spending .
Since the gymnasiumshas neitherbeen delayed nor impeded, the ad -ministration is not concerned in th ecase, he asserted .
"The question of whether one Stu ,dent Council does or does not over -spend in a given year and thus imposeeconomies on succeeding councils i sa matter which concerns only thestudent body," he said .
Statement was made to "clear u pmisinformation which students hel d
with regard to administration view s
on the current financial difficultie s
of the AMS" Dean Clement told the

McGill Grad sSeek Fund sFor College
Montreal, Oct . 19—(CUP)— TheGraduates' Society of McGill Uni-versity last Saturday issued an ap-peal to all graduates to support the
Alma Mater fund of the Society
through a plan of "annual giving . "
In a circular letter, E,P, Taylor ,fund chairman, appealed for the "av-alanche that will Smother McGill ' sgrowing forest of financial troubles . "
"We know that McGill has earnedand held an important place in th edevelopment of education in Nort hAmerica, " the booklet says .
"Why is McGill's position of lead-
ership now threatened? "
"The reason is entirely financial . "
"As a privately endowed university
McGill is supported ,by student fees
and by the income from its investe d
capital . "
The shift in our economy to high
operating costs and low return on
investments has made it increasingly
difficult for McGill to balance its
operating budget . Additional fund s
are needed now primarily to main-
tain and equip libraries, laborator-
ies and lecture halls and to pay sal-
aries which will attract and retai n
the teaching staff to keep McGill i n
the forefront of American universi-
ties .

The "new look" has even in-vaded the field of music on th ecampus this year .
Jazz and dancing enthusiasts wil lfind it listening to the music ofAl Macmillan and his orchestr awho are utilizing symphonic in-struments for the first time thisyear to produce startling and un-orthodox effects .
The long-hair instruments bein gused are the flute, oboe and bassclarinet which give the reed sec-tion, a now voicing rind a Glen nMiller effect . Most ver :aatile of th ereeds is Chuck Rowley, who a swell as slaving bsril^inc sax m eplay alto sex onrl clarinet . Hiscontribution to the "new look" isplaying the flute .
letting stated that morale was highand no fear was shown by any o fthe donors . "Many donors from prev-ious years are back for repeats, "one blond nurse told the Daily Ubys-sey . She added that there was stil ltime to sign up for those who hav enot done so. The clinic will be onthe campus for two weeks.
Any new donors are advised b yRed Cross officials to eat a goodbreakfast on the day of their appoint-ments . They also insist, for the bene-fit of those who are still hesitan tabout registering, that the process isentirely painless owing to the us eof a new, smaller, type of needle .
Donors are provided with a com-fortable bed during the operation an dare given food afterwards .
The clinic is suporvisediby two doc-tors and attended by a staff of traine dnurses whose presence help to mak ethe process smooth and comfortable ,
vincial Government to curb power sof the Law Society to delve into aman's political affiliations passed b ya narrow majority after a meetingin which all attempt to establishorder had to be abandoned .
Dr. G.C. Sedgewick, former headof the department of English told th emeeting that neither he nor anystudent present could be sure the yhad enough information to protest de-cision of the benchers in the Marti ncase and therefore advised that theresolution calling for a protest be re -worded to call for an investigationinto the case by the Attorney General .
After a hectic debate on the issu eDon Lanskail, Cannadian Legion of-ficial, moved that clause calling fo ra protest be deleted from the resolu-tion and be amended to read "we de-mand that the benchers of the B .C .Law Society make public their reas-ons for refusing to admit Gordo nMartin and if the benchers refuse t oreply or if' their reply is unsatisfac-tory we demand a full investigatio ninto the case by the Attorney Genera lof British Columbia. "
Lanskail said he did not wish t oprotest the case until he had all th efacts because since Norm Littlewoo da fellow Communist was admitte dat the same time Martin was refusedit would seem that there might besomething more than political affili-ations involved .
NIGHTINGALE BAC KLast year's leader, Frank Night-

Snake Parade :
EUS Banqueters
Stage Annua l
Traffic Holdup
A mammoth snake parade
which disrupted downtown
traffic once again terminated
the annual EUS banquet Thurs-
day night .Previously, 1000 engineers jamming
the Commodore Cabaret heard an ad -dress by Dr. Anderson, speaking forDr . N. A. M. MacKenzie . Guest speak-er was Mr . D. McK. Brown, wellknown city lawyer .
First rate entertainment was givenby stars billed at downtown supperclubs . Among them were Carl andJudy, accordionists from the Cave,and singer Mary Knight ,
Of Al's original 15-piece or-chestra, only one member re-mains, Doug Smithers ,
ONE TRUMPETA slashed budget has necessitated
cutting the brass section to onetrumpet this year . It is played byVic Keating, also from Victoria,who dons a pair of dark glasses,brushes out his goutee and puts ona beret, when the time comesaround to play some "bebop . "
Marylin Frederickson, who ad -mires Sarah Vaughn and shows it ,does the vocal chores for the orechestra .
It all adds up to a smartly pre-cisioued, original orchestra thatcan't fail to please for an eveningof dancing or listening, be they "lejazz hot" or sweet and low .

St ld itnt ]awyels 'oh the etiitrlpus` have been,
nitompletely clean of any connection with the
scurrying around for the past couple of week s
ratifying' their ranks behind a 'resolution which
il reported into today 's ` Letters to the Editor
cotuir ►n ,
It 's an apologetic, Milquetoast little thing
assed on October 1the , Law Undergradu-
ate Society who apparently wish to r 'dis -
psspciate" themselves from one of our editor -,~thi Foncerning Gordon Martin and his bou t
with the benchers of the Law Society .
.The lawyers neither supported nor con-demned the action of the Law Society in ban-ning Martin, they simply said our words
weren ' t polite ,nie .Their sense of decency in protecting th e
gp%d, name of students against the outrageou s
editorials of The Daily Ubyssey touches usdeeply . '
. .We would be the last to suggest, of course ,
that the final year law students who sponsored, t tbe i resolution condemning the "offensive 'language of this paper were in any waymotivated by self-interest .
Ina democracy it i; just too fantastic toassume that the law students realized they ,too, would soon be run through the same in-quisition as Martin and would probably bemore Welcome at the bar if their hands were
Marlin case .
The manner in the which the lawyers
pa';scd their resolution is an interesting les-
eon in democrat', 'Me motion first ,came up
al a genet :almeeting of the Law Undergradu-
ate Society October 1 . When the hair-split-
ting discussion was over, the lawyers finally
gassed the resolution, but lent the actual wprd-
inf; to one student . He worked out the exac t
text after the meeting was over, somewha t
in the same way a chap named Hitler onc e
operated. '
'
But the climax was yet to come . Then the
senior law students went to "the people" to
get approval for their motion . Ii was presented
to classes in first and second year law and
passed by them ,
One student in the lower years, so he tell s
no, asked that his drum-beating seniors, read
the editorial to the class so they might judge
on it:', own merits . But the editorial was
never read and a mob of confused student s
tab() mumbled a chorus of ayes and nays were
ta)ld they had just passed the resolution .
The plain fact of the matter is, the resolu-
tion does not represent the .opinions of law
students on this campus, We'd still like to
know, what they really think . ; , ,

The self-propelled vehicle dates bac kto the 18th century . As developed byengineers and designers of the pres-
ent century, motor cars have widened horizons throug hproviding fast, economical transportation .
Through intensive industrial research on design andmaterials the rugged durability of trucks and buses wa simproved through the use of Nickel Alloy Steels for part ssubjected to heavy stress, strain and wear .
Cars became more cndut4ngly beautifu lthrough the use of heavy Nickel platingunder that gleaming chromium finish . Inthe development of better Nickel alloy s
and improved Nickel plating methods, Nickel researc hlaboratories gave their full co-operation .
So as a result of scientific research, more and mor eNickel was used for rugged dependability, and to giv e

gleaming beauty to passenger cars .„, -- ::
Today the automotive industry i sthe largest single user of Canadian

Thus does research develop better products, create moreemployment .

astly Improved 'BirdsEdged By Willamette
There was joy in the Thun-derbird camp Saturday eve nthough they took another Am-erican football beating .
Although they went down be -fore a heavier and more experi-enced Willamette squad, 21-7 ,the 'Birds showed beyond ashadow of a doubt that theycould play great ball

By CHUCK MARSHALL
Last Saturday the Thunderbird slost another football game but i fthe score board didn'e credit themwith a win most certainly theychalked up a moral conquest whichshould help carry them over to amore concrete victory in to nearfuture .
The plainfacts are tha tfor the firsttime thi syear the Bird slooked like areal honest togoodness foo tball
tea m;;.,,, and in th e
process came mighty close to beat-ing the toughest opposition thattheir league has to offer .
Even the most optomistic of thepre-game predictions slated theWilson men to go down by fou ror five touchdowns while thei rchances of scoring were said to berather questionahle .
0 The unpredictable 'Birds, how -ever, fooled more than a few spec-tdtors and perhaps even them-selves during the first half of thetil t, particularly, by matching th ehighly ' touted Willamette squadplay for play and point for point .
That the man-hungry Blue an dGold crew should wilt somewhatduring the later part of the gam ewas only to be expected but thei rspectacular march down the fiel d,during the dying minutes provedthat they still had plenty of figh tleft, .
All For NowEnough of post mortems how -
ever, except to hand out a fewwords of praise to the much im-froved Thunderbirds.
Ever since the team has been'organized, 'their blocking has bee nabsolutely pitiful in most casesbut this year Don Wilson deservesa lot of credit for finally havinghitched up the boot straps of thatdepartment .
His charges finally seem to hav egrasped the fundamentals of tak -Ing out enemy tacklers and mad egood use of their new found talentduring the game .
On the offensive side the 'Birdsmatched the Bearcats in every de-partment but two.
The Wilson men completed 7 outof their 18 passes for a total of 15 0yards, On the other hand, th evisitors made 8 out of 17 tosses fo r¶ 'mere 59 yards.
The Thunderbirds made a tota l
of 11 first downs to the 'Cats 1 2and chalked up 247 by puntingcompared to the 265 of the opposi-tldn;' The ' only departments in whichthe 'Birds were outclassed was onground rushes, in which they mad eonly 120 yards to the Bearcats 190,and punts which averaged 7 or 8yards less than those of the visit -ors.
First Down sAnd now for a prediction. Th e
Thunderbirds are undoubtedly go-ing to win one and probably moregames this season , One of the vic-tories may be next Saturday ag-ainst Whitman College or perhapsit may not come for a little whil elonger .
The point is that a win is justaround the corner so we adviseporters but also the "win or wenot only the teams staunch sup -won't come " spectators not to mis sany of the next few games .
If they do they will have tolearn of the 'Birds first victory ofthe season from the newspapers .
It was apparent right from theopening kick-off which the confer-ence champion Bearcats receivedthat the visitors were not going tohave any push over . A hard chargin gUBC line forced them to kick onfourth down and from there on unti lthe end of the quarter the home tea mhad the edge in play .
DOWNFIELD MARONIi. wasn't until midway through th e
second period that the 'Cats were albto penetrate the Blue and Gold de-fense, They climaxed a 55-yarddownfield march with a 16-yard heav eby John Burleigh into the waitin garms of Roy Harrington who lope dover for the first score of the game .
Not to be outdone the 'Birds cam eright back. Sparked by the running o fDougie Reid, playing one of the fin-est games of his career, Dave Storey ,arid the bombsight passing of Bo bMurphy, UBC moved the ball fro mmid-field to the Bearcat twenty ,
iA pass from Murphy to Storey i n
the end zone put UBC on the scorin grecords for the first time this season .Hillary Wotherspoon made the con-vert good to tie tthe score .
FAULTY PASSA faulty 'Bird pass defense gave th e
Willamette team its two touchdowns .one in the third quarter and one inthe final canto . Both were thrown byBurleigh, the first one to Bill Ewal'ik oand the other to Harrington again ,
But on the ground a hard chargingUBC line went on tossing visitinghacks to the ground for negligiblegains . Only twice in the game di dthey get away for anything like thelong runs that local fans have cometo expect from 'Bird opponents .
gain a 2-2 tie in a game that Varsit ymight well have won, had they not;lowed down in the second half . Thestudents had a clear edge in the firs thalf, and led 2-1 at the breather, bu tn the late stages the Ra p iers put on a
teal display of power to outplay th ecampus eleven, and finally tied th escore midway through the last hall .
Ken Campbell got his first guta o fthe season to give Varsity the lea d
minutes of play, lofting adrifter that veered with th eand glanced in off the goal -
post .After Raniers had nullified thi s
with the neatest setup of the game,
Jim Foster and Bobby Moulds .The hotelmen came to life in the
second half, while the students ap-peared to tire , Jack Cowan, whoseemed a bit off his usual form, neve rthelcss came to the rescue hereo nseveral occasions, acting almost a sa second goaltender ,
In the last few minutes Varsitymissed two or throe golden chancesto pick up a win. Gleig got a clea rbreakaway and charged in on theRanier goal, but the ball got awa yfrom him. Howie Oborne and BobbyMoulds, who was probably the pickof the campus team, both missed op-
uggermen Dividen Miller Cup Series
Varsity and UBC ruggermen split games in the MillerCup series for the second straight week .
The scores were reversed ; Varsity coming out on topwith a 15-3 win over Meralomas at Douglas Park, and UBOthe under-dog with a 15-3 loss to North Shore at `Brockton Oval.
Varsity playing their usual steadygame, scored first shortly after th estarting whistle, Lomas came hac kto tie it up with a penalty kick afew minutes later. After this it wasthe students game completely, three sand scrum worked in perfect unisonand at half time the score stood 9-3.
In the second half Varsity rackedup six more points while Lomas wereheld scoreless. Varsity, however ,seemed to miss that educated toe ofHilary Wotherspoon . Despite the ef-forts of Russ Latham, and Marshal lSmith kicking on the whole was ver ypoor . They missed several penalt ykicks and converts which might hsveproved to be very important .
The less experienced UBC squa dwent down before North Shore All -Blacks for the second loss of theseason. The students, however, haveimproved immensly in the past week .Although they took a 15-3 beating ,the team was working far betterthan it has since the begining of theseason . Mike Hein-Smith booted thelone tally for the students.
. . And that's where Eddie came in. He
was put on the payroll—given his first chance
to learn a trade . Right now he's on his
way home to tell Mom and Dad
how much he likes his new job:

Eddie started
THE MANAGER of the
furniture factory in Eddie's town
landed a big order. It meant he
had to buy a lot of extra
lumber, increase his payroll ;
He lost no time in putting
the whole thing up to
the manager of his local
bank. Together they
worked out how much
money he would need tip
take care of wages and other
costs until he delivered the goods.
Then, with the backing of his bank, he go t
to work on the order.
