VOTE VERDICT : G Act hanged,

franchise loss

protested Approximately 2,000 students

grouped at Seagram Gymnasium for the start of a mammoth march to Waterloo Square in downtown Water- loo. The march was to protest the Canada Elections Act which disen- franchises many students in their university riding.

In an orderly fashion, groups of . students picked up torches and placards at the exit to the Seagram area. Hundreds of students filed down Albert Street and regrouped at Water- loo Square where a scaffold had been erected.

There a “judge” read the accusa- tions and the crowd was asked whether the Canada Elections Act was guilty of discriminatory practices against students.

The thunderous roar was GUILTY.

At this point, a masked hangman appeared and hanged by the neck an effigy labeled Canada Elections Act.

Nationalism was given a great boost when the marchers sang 0 Canada in unison. The marchers then returned towards Seagram Stadium.

Not once during the entire march was there a hint of loss of control of the crowd. As well as police con- trolling the traffic situation, the press, radio and television were on hand to give the protest first class coverage.

SOME PRANKS A statue by Ron Baird, erected

only this summer in the courtyard between the chemistry and biology buildings, was wrecked by some un- thinking prankster late Sunday night.

The modernistic statue was sawn from its concrete base and allowed to drop to the courtyard.

In another childish and senseless prank, a university security police car was painted with such slogans as “Cooky’s Car 54” in a bright orange color. It would have been appreciated if water colors had been used.

It is hoped that these senseless pranks be stopped and acts of a less serious nature take their place, such as making lowly scum frosh make fools of themselves.

These fines may seem unduly severe, but, according to Mrs. C. Mixer of the library staff, students simply have too much money. THE GRIPES OF WRATH ’

The old rates were not accomplishing their purpose; students just paid their fines and continued to break the rules.

If you have something on your mind about the way the university is run, if you disagree with the way a particular student activity was organized, if you don’t like the parking spot you’ve got . . .

Drastic measures seem to be necessary for those students who cannot ac- cept responsibility as well as enjoy privileges. These people abuse the library facilties instead of using them to maxrmum advantage.

HERE’S YOUR CHANCE TO BLOW OFF

An excellent handbook has been put out by the library giving complete information on library facilities and services. This book will be especially use- ful to freshmen who are unfamiliar with library routine.

This space is reserved for you each week. Here’s an opportunity to voice your opinions, grievances or comments, -providing you observe the laws of libel.

If you did not receive one at registration, obtain one from the arts library information desk and use it.

You have a free hand (almost) to make good use of the column. ’ Send your work to The Coryphaeus, Board of Publications, Federa- tion Building.

OUTSIDE GREENWICH YILLAGE &

WAY OFF BROADWAY

by A. E. J. Brychta

There is a very definite art

exhibit in the foyer of the Arts

Theatre this week, as those of

you who have lectures in the . theatre know. The originator of

these creations is a Ukrainian- . Canadian called Lev and there is

a short biography of him in the

pamphlet available there.

On your way to lectures or

while awaiting the occasional

late professor, most have offered

expressions of opinion regarding

the paintings. Whatever these

might have been, there is no

doubt that this is certainly one of

the most interesting exhibits that

has been shown since I’ve been

at the U. of W.

Undoubtedly, most (freshmen

too) will find “The Kiss” and

“Nude” the most interesting. But

look at the others. His portraits

are well done and one can almost

tell what characters these people

have.

As has been the tradition for

this column, I don’t always write

about the fine arts, and, in keep-

ing with tradition, let this be the

r-P- . . . ,---t

time and place to welcome all

the Frosh (You’ll be actual stu-

dent people after the decapping

(deflowering?-ed.) ceremony).

If anyone has any interesting

mathematical or logic problems

they want to share, would you

submit them to me in care of this

column in ANNEX I (that’s the

place with the “congress X” ban-

ner in red and white on it). It’ll

be reprinted here if it’s good and

hard.

Back to the fine arts again; this

year the Arts theatre and the

surrounding K-W area have an

impressive array of music, plays,

and exhibits lined up. As this is

usually considered to be an inte-

gral part of one’s education, one

should plan on attending these

activities. What is the key distin-

guishing feature of intelligent

people? It is that they can usual-

ly talk about and discuss any-

thing and know something about

everything and everything about

something.

Balancec

develops Wdl

rounded persdnality The dictionary’s definition

program

of a

student runs something to the effect

that a student is a human being gain-

ing knowledge of the professional

realm and who is passing through a

decisive stage of his integral educa-

tion. This definition applies to uni-

versity students everywhere, for

fundamentally there are no differen-

ces. All students are influenced by one

factor, however, which radically

changes their behaviour: environment.

Thus, despite the uniformity of the

definition, there is a difference of

opinion and expression among stu-

dents - even in the same place -

due to environmental circumstances

in each instance.

Many people feel that a student

should devote himself to his studies

exclusively. Being a member of a

society, however, he must know that

it is his duty not only to study, but

also to be aware of what is going on

around him. When faced with such

realistic problems as illiteracy and

underdevelopment, the student is

forced to realize his goal as an edu-

cated person: to prepare himself for

his chosen profession and to assist in

eliminating such problems as under-

development.

And yet, when students become

aware of society’s problems; they

adopt different attitudes towards them.

Some ignore them and disregard them

to drift further along the path of

egoism; others who are capable of

student leadership often drift toward

extremism.

There are those, however, who pur-

sue their own course, conscious of the

problems around them, and pause to

make a contribution to their own to

better the situation, knowing that if

the circumstances so required, they

will fulfil1 their roles as leaders in

developing a society in which all have

access to full development. .

At university, there are two clear

paths which may be followed: the one

of pure study, the other of study

tempered with a little participation in

activities. Of the two, only the latter

offers a more thorough training and

leads to the full development of

personality.

Music, drama, art response promises big year

If the response during the first days of registration is any indication, acti- vities in music, art and drama will reach new heights during the coming year.

Mr. Kunz, director of music, Mrs. Patterson, director of art, and Mr. Dennis Sweeting, director of drama, are most enthusiastic with the number of students who indicated a real inter- est in participating in the programs.

Auditions and rehearsals of the various groups in music are now under way and plans for a number of major programs will be completed and announced shortly. Casting ses- sions, play readings and initial re- hearsals have begun under the direc- tion of Mr. Sweeting. A major pro- duction is scheduled for November 25, 26, 27 - one of Our Town, Caucasian Chalk Circle or “An Even- ing of Shaw” featuring three one-act plays.

Informal noon-hour concerts will be held this fall and at least one Sunday afternoon recital will be presented.

A series of lecture-seminars cover- ing the various phases of theatre pro- duction will be open to all who wish to attend. In addition an evening of faculty play readings and a studio production will be held in late Octo- ber and early November.

‘Students are being organized to act as docents (guides) during the public hours of gallery exhibitions. A stu- dent committee to help organize and exhibit shows is being formed. Noon- time sessions, evening lectures and film sessions on art are to be held. Students interested in studio classes are signed up and a class will be organized on this basis.

Anyone wishing further informa- tion regarding the programs and acti- vities should inquire at the creative arts office, Arts I. Mr. Paul Berg, director of creative arts activities, will be pleased to discuss the plans for this coming year and would welcome any suggestions for the further de- velopment of the program.

for annex one. Both annex one and annex two

(the main cafeteria) were c/iginally located on Waterloo Lutheran Uni- versity’s campus in the parking lot behind Willison Hall.

They were built in 1957 by Geratt Construction Co. as temporary class- rooms and drafting rooms for the’ new co-operative engineering program which was being started by Waterloo College Associate Faculties.

Some offices were also located in these prefabricated buildings while science labs were conducted in the Lutheran College’s arts building.

In 1958 the chemistry building (chen$cal engineering now) was com- pleted on what is now University of Waterloo land, and the two annexes were moved to supplement the facili- ties of the permanent building.

The move took six days, was made by Cooper Building Movers, and cost approximately $6,000.

The two buildings wer\e built ori- ginally at a cost of about $50,000.

Annex three and four are used for building and maintenance.

One of these, a cement block build- ing, was originally a sausage factory.

The recent move was made by Lackie Bros. It took approximately two weeks and again cost around $6,000.

For the time being annex one will serve the same purposes as before, but has received a fancier name.

The Federation Building (formally annex one) houses the <Board of Pub- lications offices, Student Book Store, Health Services, and the Federation of Students offices.

The exhibition, part of the. col- lection of Mr. and Mrs. William Landmann and Mr. and Mrs. Martin Landmann, affords a rare opportunity to understand pre-Hitler Germany as seen through the eyes of its finest artists.

LENNOXVILLE (CUP) - The Canadian Union of Students has adopted as its first priority “the aboli- tion of all social and financial barriers to post-secondary education.”

Delegates from 45 member institu- tions adopted the new standing re- solution with only one dissenting vote, and decided to seek the abolition of tuition fees as a first step toward these principles.

To exert public pressure in favor of these goals, the delegates agreed to sponsor a national student day to serve as a “manifestation of student opinion,” if possible before the federl al election.

The long-term policy statement, moved by McGill and seconded by, the University of British Columbia, declares “the sole determinant of the

undertaking of post-secondary educa- tion should be academic qualifica- tion.”

Sharon Sholzberg, president of McGill Students’ Society, said that one must consider the question of accessibility for the student who is independent of his family. The par- ent should not be forced to play any role in university education other than the creation of a home environ- ment conducive to higher learning.

Another CUS resolution, moved by Victoria University, stated “after the abolition of tuition fees there is still a discrepancy between annual student revenue and annual student expendi- ture on education.”

It called for modification of exist- ing student loan schemes “as an initial step toward the elimination of loans” by making loans refundable upon successful completion of each acade- mic year.

presentative of the Canadian Union of Students will go to Vietnam to study the situation there, provided funds for his expenses can be raised from sources other than the CUS budget. He will send reports back to cus.

The representative will attempt to establish relations with southeast Asian students during his stay which will not last longer than one year.

The tour will also include other southeast Asian countries and the People’s Republic of China.

National scholars named

Four students who achieved an average of more than 90 percent in the recent Ontario grade 13 examina- tions were awarded the University of Waterloo’s highest scholarship prize for freshman students.

Each year Waterloo offers national scholarships to the four Canadian high school graduates entering the university who have attained the highest averages over 90 percent.

The four winners this year are all graduates of Ontario high schools: John J. Koval of Sarnia, Joseph M. Meaden of Fort William, and Ian T. Turner of Port Arthur enrolled in science. Richard B. Powell of Niagara Falls registered in engineering.

U of W national scholarships in- clude tuition, incidental fees and a cash award of $1,000 each year for the duration of the undergraduate course provided that the scholar main- tains a sufficiently high academic standing.

SPORTS BULLETIN We understand that Dr. Bob Hud-

gins (chemical engineering) is claim- ing the title of champion golfer of U of W following his hole-in-one on the 18th hole at Galt’s Thunder- bird course. Congratulations, Bob, and all the best in the Canadian Open!

NO CAMPING ALLOWED

Canadian Grand Pax brings racing champs

Students of the University of Waterloo who have been planning to camp out overnight at Mosport Park on Friday evening, September 24, prior to the running of the Canadian Grand Prix the following day, are doomed to disappointment.

Roy McLaughlin, President of the British Empire Motor Club, organiz- ers of the Grand Prix, has just an- nounced that there will be no public overnight camping at Mosport this year, prior to the sports car classic.

Indications, however, are that this will be one of the most exciting, as well as the longest sports car race in Canada. Some of the greatest names in sports car racing from around the world will be competing in the fastest cars it is possible for human ingenuity to produce.

The race, with its $40,000 in prize and starting money and the coveted Pepsi-Cola Trophy, is attracting a star-studded lineup of drivers. World champions and near world champions like John Surtees of England, Bruce McLaren, New Zealand, Jim Hall, Texas and Jackie Stewart, Scotland, will demonstrate their skill and dar- ing on the winding, 2.5 miles Mos- port circuit. Canadians expected on the starting grid will include Ludwig Heimrath of Toronto and Peter Lerch, Montreal.

A maximum of 30 cars and drivers will compete in this 250~mile, non- stop event which gets underway at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 25. This year, for the first time, the race will get off with a “rolling start.” This means all cars will be in motion when the starter’s flag is dropped.

The cars are even more varied and international than the countries re- presented by the drivers. These will

include 9 McLarens, 8 Lolas, some Ferraris, Elva-Porsche, a Ford G.T. and a Chaparral. The latter, to be driven by Jim Hall of Texas, is built almost entirely of resin-bonded glass fibre.

Drivers and their crews began to arrive in Toronto on Monday, Septem- ber 20. The Board of Control of the City of Toronto authorized the is- suance of a public notice declaring September 19 to 25 as “Grand Prix Week in Canada.”

On Saturday the racing programme will get underway at lo:30 a.m. with a supporting list of events. During the past two years the Grand Prix has been won by Pedro Rodriguez, ace speedster from Mexico.

Memorial Fund for Mrs. Hagey

Mrs. Hagey died in the Kit- chener-Waterloo Hospital the morning of September 13th.

The funeral was held Wed- nesday, September 15th, Knox Presbyterian Church, Waterloo.

Dr. Hagey indicated that con- tributions to charitable organ- izations would be as acceptable as flowers as expressions of sympathy.

A Memorial Fund is being established in the Universtiy and donations to this fund may be indicated.

A Steering Committee has been established to determine the objective and purpose of the Fund.

There will be further an- nouncements in this regard in the near future.

clubs

The chairman of the Board of Stu- dent Actvities announced that his of- fice has not yet received from many clubs on campus a list of their execu- tive officers.

Of more importance, these same clubs have not as yet filed a budget for 1965-66.

,Unless some action is taken by the clubs on these two issues within ten days, they will be considered by the board as no longer active and not eli- gible for the council grants.

German show

for gallery MAX BECKMANN AND THE

GERMAN EXPRESSIONISTS will be shown in the Gallery of the Theatre of the A@, October 13 to November 12. German Expressionist art, the finest of twentieth-century Germany, has enjoyed a renewal of appreciation during the past decade, but those works preserved by fore- sighted collectors prior to Hitler’s suppression of the artists are still not widely available to the public.

The exhibition, chosen from a major private Canadian collection, of- fers an understanding of pre-Hitler Germany as seen through the eyes of its artists.

Made possible through the gener- osity of Mr. and Mrs. William Land- mann, together with Mr. and Mrs. Martin Landmann, the selection in- cludes paintings and graphics by nax Bechmann and nearly all of the major artists associated with the German Expressionist movement. They are characterized by vivid colour and bold line, and show their origins in post-Impressionism and a new inter- est in folk and primitive art. The works are part of the German heri- tage, and ultimately part of the free- hold of all men: the masterworks of art history.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a series of lectures for students and the public: outstanding will be “Max Beckmann and the German Expressionists,” by Professor George Wallace, department of fine art, Mc- Master University, October 15, 8:00 p.m. The Gallery of the Theatre of the Arts is open Monday-Friday 9-5 and Sunday 2-5 p.m. Student docents will escort the public on Sundays,, and group tours may contact 744-6111, ext. 493.

Bill Haley and the Comets will be appearing on Saturday, Sep- tember 25th. The appearance is sponsored by St. Jerome’s in co-operation with the Orienta- tion Committee.

All Baptist students are cordial- ly invited to a dinner and ser- vice at Highland Baptist Church on Sunday, September 26th. Dinner will be at 5:00 p.m. and the service at 7:00 p.m. All students wishing to attend the Dinner should call 745-0281.

The Progressive Conservative Club will hold its first meeting, Monday, September 27th, in room 246, Arts Building, at 4:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.

The House of Debates will hold a general meeting for all those interested in debating on Sep- tember 30th, at 7:30 p.m. in the Theatre of the Arts.

Chess Club orientational meet- ing in C-208 at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 23rd. All chess players and potential players welcome.

Montreal visit yields understanding by Maurice Martin

Fourteen from the Kitchener-Water- loo area went to Montreal this last Easter weekend for a series of semin- ar discussions with French college students on the topic, “The implica- tions of Bilingualism and Bicultural- ism in Canada.” The trip was initiat- ed, in Kitchener, by the Mennonite Central Committee, and in Montreal, by the Quaker House of Friends and Les Petites F&es des Pauvres (Ro- man Catholic order).

Our purpose, as English and French students, was to study first hand the things that we read so much about in the newspapers concerning the so- called “French problem.” We were to study biculturalism and bilingualism by meeting the French people person- ally and talking with them on four different levels: work, worship, fel- lowship and of course, discussion.

To get to know the French people better, we helped Les Fetites F&es des Pauvres with their work of visita- tion in the poorer and slum sections of Montreal, mainly with the old in- valids. We cleaned up their apart- ments if it was needed and brought them a package of Easter cheer. In visiting these old people, we had a good chance to practice our “Diefen- baker French”. Their dialect is some- times difficult to understand, especial- ly since the old people tend to slur over words. However, the college stu- dents spoke clearly for our sake, and on the most part, were bilingual. Their English put our French to shame! We must remember however, that they are in many cases forced to speak English, whereas we can go through high-school without ever getting a

smack of influency in Canada’s se- cond official language!

Since we English Canadians were all Protestant, we felt that it would be a good idea to have a discussion on our respective beliefs. Following this enlightening ecumenical discus- sion, we went to midnight mass at St. Timothy’s Church (English). I be- lieve that most of us came away from the discussion with the question “Why all this disunity in the Christian Church, when we believe alike in so many respects?”

On Friday evening we had a dis- cussion of the political, economical, and social implications of bilingual- ism and biculturalism in Canada.

in Quebec, they should be treated as such, and the minority English should conform and learn the language, or at least respect it and the culture that it represents. (Don’t tell a French person to “speak White.“) 4. It would be highly impractical for the rest of Canada to become bi- lingual, The French don’t ask for this. 5. We have no real need for com- plete national unity as a group that thinks alike. However, we do need peaceful co-existence. 6. The place of Canada in this era is not in war in Viet Nam, but rather in the U.N. of Cyprus and other

The topic was introduced by a fluently bilingual student who has travelled widely in Europe and has made a study of cultural and lingual relations between the countries in Western Europe.

Following are some of the main points brought out and agreed upon by both French and English. 1. French in Quebec are not all bomb-slinging radicals, and do not wish to be known as such.

Only one person in the group was in favour of secession, and that because he felt that it was the only sure way to safeguard the French culture and language.

It will be a technical journal ad- dressed to both graduate and under- graduate engineering students, and be of equal value to both freshmen and senior students.

It will contain:

-Technical essays written by both graduate and undergraduate stu- dents.

-Non-technical articles of interest to engineers.

-Articles written on research activi- ties at our university.

The staff of the FOCUS want a large number of essays written. Es- say contests for both graduate and undergraduate engineers will soon be arranged and anonunced on the bulle- tin boards.

“Why couldn’t people who want to vote get absentee ballots and vote for the candidates in their home ridings?” - Judith Wintermeyer.

“Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!” -Tom Skvoic.

“I completely abhor any movements with leftist leanings.” - Peter Grant.

“It was a good idea because every- one who is 21 should have the right to vote, and the fact that one is at university shouldn’t prevent one from voting.” - Mary Smith.

“I feel the protest march is a wrong way to start to change anything that has been done with which one dis- agrees, especially in politics, because there are many channels which may be used to rectify the situation and I don’t feel we used any of them.” - Doug Gravitz.

$2,000 has already been received for the home.

The wash was held at 24 sites throughout the Kitchener-Waterloo area on Saturday.

Well over 1000 students, mainly freshmen, participated in this great project to wash over 1,300 cars, 9 trucks, 1 motorbike, 1 bicycle, and even a sailboat.

Although a charity drive has been a traditional freshman project, this is the first time a car wash of this size has ever been undertaken. It was suc- cessful in many ways, other than just earning money for the children. It represented the largest percentage turnout of any group to any event on campus.
