Siffing The Cinema By Stanley Fox

The Bird Cage

We'll MuddleWe always thought UBC faculty mem-

bers were too smart to try to take over stu-dent government on this campus .

illBut our Facutly Committee on. Studen t

Affairs has threatened to do just that, a sonly the most naive among us will no trealize .

The threat came in the form of a lette rto Student Council this week, "suggesting"that our student leaders keep all their deci-sions secret until the faculty committee ap-proved them .

We're not sure yet wether Student Coun-cil was supposed to bow or curtsey at thi s"request," but there's no doubt that theywere supposed to accept it as a decision ofthe faculty committee . .

We can all thank Council for having th eguts to stand up and shout back a big, lou dunmistakeable "NO."

UBC students have just as much rightto feel insulted by the faculty committee a sthe latter would if students set up a commit -tee on faculty affairs. Ah,, but what a timewe could have dictating to professors abou ttheir use of the faculty club, the expendi-ture of monies they have on hand, and—thi swe would really love—their disciplinary con -duct!

I

'

Silly? Impossible? A week ago we wouldhave said that the idea of faculty memberswanting to "censor" Council's minutes wassilly and impossible under the traditiona l

We have now reached the stage in theAMS presidential election where the tumul tand shouting would have died, if there ha dbeen any tumult and shouting, and the cap-tains and the kings should be packing thei rcarpet bags . That is, if there were any cep-tains and kings involved in this year ' s spit -spat, fiddle-faddle presidential race .

We offer Vaughan Lyon our congratula •tions on his victory, but none of us (exceptperhaps his two opponents) will envy him fo rthe job that lies ahead of him .

When he moves into the southwest cor -ner of Brock Hall later this spring, Lyon wil lfind he has to take over from one of the mostparadoxical 'student councils in AMS history .

Mr. Lyon will find he has inherited a nadministration that has combined infuriatingconservatism with admirable originality an d

An Open Letter to Felicity .Dear Miss Pope :

As one who spent his summer bushed ,b - - - d and bewildered deep in the stick,, ,my summer experiences will probably loo kpretty sick, but I thoiught they were wort hbringing up anyway.

Fm just a . narrow, ighoraht Canadia nboy who wouldn 't know an ISS seminar if Ihad one shoved down my throat and I won' tmind if you sneer ounce or twice if I tell youI 've never cruised around Europe leaving awake of Christian ideals, tolerance andbooze .

Don't blow smoke in my face yet, though ,because we did exchange a few ideas . Fo rexample the boss would give me his ideas onsharpening axes, and I would give my ide aon what. to do with the axes . This gave us achance to appreciate one another's viewpoin tand give a critical examination of our ow npreconceived ideas, What's more we hardl yever came to blows .

Let me tell you first of all how ou rtravels brought us into contact with variou scultural media, tvith minds alien to our own ,villagers who glared suspiciously rind mutter-ed to themselves about "them university edu-cated know-alls," the vibrant, pulsating son gof the woods echoed by hearty, care-free me nwho lived for the moment, revelling in thei rown strength as they toppled nightly firs ,the blatant, condescending tourists who mar-velled at our timber resources and talked an -nexation . Necdlcse Ica sad' 1 wee ('ontinu ;hlly

Throughconditions that have been built up at UBC .

Now we can see that such is not onlypossible . It's an immediate threat .

Our esteemed faculty committeeme nhave put up a set of weak arguments tha tmake a mockery of the fact that their chair-man is a member of the Law faculty .

Their biggest contention is that in Coun-cil's decisions are publicized before facultysees them, and a decision is reversed, the nth University would suffer from advers epublicity .

We insist that STUDENTS HAVE ARIGHT TO KNOW WHEN THEIR OWNGOVERING BODY IS NOT MAKING TH EFINAL DECISION IN ANY STUDEN TMATTER.

But we won't get tangled up here in thetheory of democracy .

The faculty committee's whole attitude o f"do this" and "don't do that" leaves us wit hbut one more point to make.

OUR FACULTY COMMITTEE COUL DHELP US MOST RIGHT NOW BY UNDER -STANDING THAT WE ARE QUITE HAP-PY AT MUDDLING THROUGH OUR OWNAFFAIRS .

Unless our sage advisors are willing toaccept this fact, they would do well to girdthemselves for a long, bitter jurisdictiona lbattle that will accomplish nothing but t oprove that UBC students know their rightsand intend to keep them

progressivism.He will discover, though, , that the fina l

test lies not in theoretical policy but i nachievement . On that count, our presentCouncil owes few, if any, apologies .

We would like to caution Mr . Lyon hereto remember when he picks up the Councilgavel that he is not about to open Parliament .

'He should bear in mind that one item o fclown-to-earth workability is worth a whol eHansard of constitutional gobbledygook .

It's true that an AMS president has acertain dignity to uphold and certain for-malities to observe .

But anyone who takes the job over with amind to getting action while keeping peac ein the Alma Mater family will find that thenecessary dignity and protocol will take careof themselves .

fomenting an intellectual revolution, and th efellow next to me even came out in ' a rash.The latter might have been from too manystrawberries, though .

For a while we stayed at Revelstoke, aCPR town at the beginning of the Big BendHighway. It's a well known fact that Revel -stoke appears as Revelstroke on Americantnaps, spelt with a long, sensuous sigh on thelast syllable, not as it does on Canadian map swith t short, accented syllable suggestiv eof heart failure. This explains why this other-wise insignificant burg becomes a Mecca forpleasure-loving Americans who are invari-ably doomed to disappointed .

Their little minds feverishly buzzin gwith thoughts of the orgiastic fun connotate dby the word 'Revelstroke ' they descendedthe Big Bend in droves driving madly so a sget to miss one sensual moment .

Every so often they would fall upon ableak, disheartened little band of mosquito-ridden men, envelop them in a cloud of GoodEarth and shout "How far to Revel-s-t-r-o-k-e?" They would hang out the win-dows, salivating in anticipation .

"Revelstoke, " we told them, "stoke as instoker, rhymes with coke . "

And they would turn back, beaten andlifeless, moaning like whipped curs .

So you see, Miss Felicity, we came incontact with different ideas and ideals, butwe weren't the least bit tolerant . Our attitudetoward religion wasn't shallow and insincere .In fact we used to use the Lord's name all th etime .

John Ford is one of the few film

directors to merit the praise which

llollyw,00d tends to lavish on it sfavorite sons . in the past, he ha sbeen responsible for such admit-tedly excellent pictures as ,"Th eInformer," "The Chapel! of Wrath, "and "The' Long Voyage Ilome . "

He is one of those rare figures i nthe American cinema who have 'succeeded in combining artisticquality with commercial succosa ,

In doing this he has had to com-

bat the ever present pressure fromstudio executives for more andmore films in less and less time .It is only natural that he shouldooeaslonally find himself caugh tup in the hlgh .speed Hollywood"entertainment" factory, When thishappens, we got a film like "RioGrande . "

"Rio Grande" is Ford's lates tpicture but, it Is by no means hisbest. Certain sequences are exce l.lent, the opening for example, bu tthe overall impression is of ascrappy, hurried job of filmmak-ing that is jest downright dull i ntoo many spots, It reminds on eof one of For'd's other eggs, "For tApache," in its sloppy pacing andindifferent iinagery,

Maureen O'Hara is the most Ob-viously bad thing In the film . He rportrayal of the wife of a for tcommander in the far west Is tire -somely bad, particularly when sheis playfng opposite such a fineactor as John Wayne .

The plot is all about a wife' smisunderstanding of her hushed()and her eon . It forms a weak cloth -es line on which to hang numer-ous Indian raids and displays o ffine horsemanship. The plausiblhity of it all is not helped by th emusical score which tends to i n .dulge in little fancies of its own ,from time to time, such as sobbingout "i'll Take You Home Agai nKathleen' In the middle of an Ap -ache raid for the sole reason tha tO'Hara has decided to faint . (SheIs Kathleen .) This sort of thing

Editor, The Uhyssey ,Dear Sir :

Any soccer fans who were at.I ' BC a couple of years ago wil lremember Jackie Cowan, a brilli-ant young player who was the cap -tale and star of some very fin eVarsity teams in the years prio rto 1949. At that time he accepte da lucrative offer end departed t oplay Old Country football .

A recent letter from a Scottis huncle reports that Jack Is no wplaying regularly at left back fo rDundee, which is curently one o fthe best teams in the country, H eis also being frequently mentione das a likely choice to play for Scot -land in International matches, th eequivalent of All•Atneilean ratingin the U.S .

I covered soccer for the Ubysse yfrom '47 to '49, an era when Cowan ,along with Ivan Carr, Bobb y:Moulds, Gus MaCSween and other smade up some powerful team swhich were sadly neglected an dignored both by students and b ySports Editors doling out space .I hope the boys are getting abetter deal now, and that the ysoon achieve the Coast Leagu estatus ('or which they are lour ;overdue .

would not be surprising in an av-erage "outdoor picture," but com-ing from Ford, it is a bitter disap-petntment . His talent is too preci -ous to be thrown away like this ,

"Odette" Is a British entry whic hgoek a long' way toward re'estab-lfsbin'g'that reputation for integrit ywhich MI Igna from the Old Countr yha d . slowly built up during, andfmhi'edlately after the war . It tell sthe true story off a British agen tworking. in' occupied France, he rettiecezhful espionage against th eNazis, eventual capture by the Gee .taste, alyd final escape .

In' fletldtialitetl form, seen a tal eWould hold' little' interest today ,hit Odette'b story has the tremen •dews ad'vaiitage' of authenticity . Asplayed by Ahtfa Negle, her herois mfe bi'ought' out in a manner whic hlefts this film' out of the ordinaryand reflects considerable crediton its maker, Herbert Wilcox .While the picture suffers fromvery rough characterization, its

adtntrahle balance between "stiff -uppe~•11p" reticence and sensation -al melodrama helps to create a be -lievable picture of part of th eFrench underground ,

Miss Neagle's performance Is stir .prisingly good when one consid-ers that her previous experienc ehas been mainly in lighter film sof the musical comedy type. How-ever, It seems Impossible for th ewriters of these fllm•hiographic sof living peoptc to create fill yrounded characters . The fhinwould have been much better i fall the members of the resistanc emovement hadn't been quite suchjolly fine chaps .

.rote Soccer!! e sProtest Column

(Austin Delany's colmun, printed in The Ubyssey o f

Tuesday, has brought a storm of protest from supporters o f

the UBC soccer team. Feeling that it is only fair to presen t

both aides of the question, we print here two letters written

to the . byssey Sports Editor. )

Sports Editor, The Ubyssey ,

Dear Sir ,

I feel that Austin Delany's column in the Uhyssey o f

Tuesday, February 6, should not go unchallenged .

There are a few truths, many half-truths and even more

obvious inaccuracies contained in his statements about Varsity

soccer.

Along with Dave Todd, vice-president of Pacific Coas tSoccer League, I have been convinced of Varsity's presen tstrength end' I have faith in its future achievements . .

In the first place, Varsity has played 14 games this year ;of these, the team has lost two . It is now in the finals of theImperial Cup—awarded in competition with all teams in th eVancouver and District League, and will go into the Final gamewith at least a fifty-fifty chance . It seems . Improbable that ,as Mr. Delany claims, "there are many Vancouver end Dis-trict 'League teams better than the present Varsity team,"when the team in question has proved itself perhaps best andin any cos* second-best .

At present, two UBC students are playing Pacific CoastLeague soccer for outside teams. There are at least two high-school students—potential university students—playing in th esame league . It is highly probable that if the Varsity socce rteam was admitted to the Pacific Coast League, (that is, ifit desires admittance) these men would turn out for Varsity .

Mr. Delany 's accusation that the Varsity team is a"puny thing at best" seems to me a statement of ignorance .A'MP who_examined the records could not possibly reac hsuch a conclusion .

Tough Competition Expecte dIn Vancouver, Bellingha m

UBC splashers are faced with two tough meets this week -end when they clash with Jack Torney's powerful University ofWashington Huskies, and Western Washington on Frida yafternoon in Bellingham, and then meet the Husky Frosh a tVancouver's Crystal Pool Saturday night .

Ironically enough, both Washing- tton teams are sparked by loca lswimmers, most of whom wer elured from UBC by scholarships .In Bellingham, the Thunderbirdwatermgn will meet Peter Salmon .British Empire Games champio nwho halls from Victoria, and con-sidered Canada's top swimmer .Jack Creedon and Ted Willson,both ex-Varsity men, will also b efound in the Husky line-up.

Saturday night, local aquati cfans will see Ocean Falls' middle -distance ace Jim Portelance in ac-tion for the Washington Fresh .Portelance, who brought home asliver medal for Canada in th eEmpire Games last year, has al -ready set a new American fresh -man and Intercollegiate record i nthe 1500 meters this season .

Although It is very probable tha tthe 'Birds will bow to the Huskie sFriday night, Saturday's contes tin Vancouver will be touch-and-goall the way. With three wins inthree starts on record this season ,Coach Whittle's mermen will beout to remain unbeaten in dua lmeets . The show gets underwayat 7 :30 p .m. at the Crystal Pool,and a limited seating accommoda-tion will be provided .

Sports Editor, The Ubyssey ,Dear Sir ,

The UBC Thunderbird Soccer Team has been getting agreat amount of publicity lately, and very little of it is com-plimentary .

Let me•state a few facts .

Of the 13 games they have played the team has lost two ,one of these to Firemen who are undoubtedly one of the bestsquads in Canada. They have reached the final of the Imperia lCup, emblematic of V & D supremacy .

At present, they are in second place in league standing ,three games off the pace setters but with four games in hand .

When all this was being done there was very little publi-city. In fact, the 'Birds did not ask for any until the Distric tLeague . rolled out the welcome mat . The team has made n oapplication, the "puny outfit " was not even consulted . No onebothered to ask the players what they think of it al l

Tuesday's Ubyssey carried a column by ex-halfback Aus-tin Delany, who previously reported for the Sun . The teamhas never reclaimed to be of Coast League calibre, Mr. De-laney, but you obviously don't know that at least three o fthe players have standing offers from Coast League teams .

I am surprised that The Ubyssey should print Delany' sarticle about the best team UBC has had in many a year .Surely the sports staff could have at least attempted to fin dout the truth before editing such rot .
