Na BarkingWith the constant crop of problems that grow up at a uni-

versity with an ever increasing enrollment both the studentgovernment and the administration are hard pressed to fin dthe-right solutions at the right times . Problems which at th emoment seem safe to put aside have a way of suddenly loomin gvery large.

Such, we 'belive, is the case with the parking situation ontheecampus. Last year there was little, if any, problem. Thisfalr!parking has become a very serious problem and its solu-tion seems far from imminent .

The vast new building program is due to start this spring .Tentative plans call for the College of Education to be buil twhere the main parking lot is now situated . In short, withintwo years, with increased encroachment on present parkin gspaoe and increasing enrollment, the problem will have becom eenormous .

What steps are being taken now to alleviate the presen tshortage of space and what plans are being laid for the future ?Parking we hear is being planned for the "perimeter" of thecampus .

The perimeter of the UBC campus can be a half hourwalk from lecture rooms. Because of this university's situa-tion, because the great majority of its students live off campu sand because the campus itself is so immense, parking herecreates a bigger problem than it does at most other universities .

We suggest that the problem be considered immediatel yand thoroughly and that something concrete be done to alleviatethe already bad situation,

2By CARLOS KRUYTBOSC H

(Carlos. Krutytbosch, a graduate in sociology at UBC, attempts here to characterize thepresent generation of university students . This is the first of a series on the same topic bydifferent people. )

How can one characterize a whole generation, in this case, our generation, the "depres-sion babies"

Does the Drive-In movie characterize the American way of life at present? or concentra-tian camps, the Russian? or the Calypso, the West Indian? It is very difficult to characterizethat of which oneself is a part . It is much easierto pick on the other fellow. The cartoonist isa master of this art. He compresses all reality, which is too large to be comprehended,into a manageable and understandable symbol which tends to become a stereotype. Ac-curacy (I know of no Olde English* Tea Shoppes in Victoria) and truth must be sacrificedin the process of compression .

How, then, to reduce thevast and differing multitud eof ideas, beliefs, hopes, fears ,actions, inhibitions and emo-tions of this generation to asymbol, a cipher, a catchwordto be bandied about by futuregenerations .

Strange Generation .

LiquorEditor, The Ubyssey ,Dear Sir :

The article entitled "Dr yHomecoming Advocated "which appeared on the fron tpage of The Ubyssey's October25 issue, besides revealing ajuvenile attitude towards drink-ing on the part of the adminis-tration and its supporters, con-tains the Howler "any drinkin gis uncivilized", attributed t oDonna Runnalls of the StudentChristian Movement ,

As a personal judgment, thepronouncement is too dogmati cfor intelligent discussion, butas an intended statement offacrt it is nonsense . Surely any-one with a smattering of his-torical knowledge knows ho wdrinking was accepted by thecultures of ancient Egypt ,China and Greece, not only asa permissible indulgence, bu tas an indispensable ritual .Christ drank wine, and demon-strated its importance to thesuccess of a festivity by pro-ducing it miraculously at Cana .

The great nations of Europedeveloped drinking as an art ,together with other arts whic hwe dare not reject, and toda yin these countries the aperitif ,wine, beer and liquor are as

much a part of daily life as ar eCoca-Cola and the hamburge rin North America . In fact, thedry civilization implied i nMiss Runnall's remark showsno evidence of its existencepast or present .

It would have been better ,perhaps nearer -the truth i fMiss Runnall had said "we arenot yet mature enough to drin kin a civilized manner"--a lackof culture which can hardly beremedied by an offensive re-

gime of compulsory temper-ance .

Yours truly ,John Hewitt .

RailroadEditor, The Ubyssey ,Dear Sir:

The fall AMS General Meet-ing was a lesson par excellenc ein the efficiency of arbitrar ydemocracy . If the lesson wil lstir us to learn a bit more aboutrules and orders in the con-duct of democratic meetings ,then we should be thankful t oMr. Bray for his commendableperformance. Contrarily, if hi sactions instill a negative feel-ing resulting in increasedapathy, then Mr. Bray deservesto be and should ,be censured .

Students are not likely to

IMPOSSIBLE !But as large adjectival head -

lines are the order of the da yin this world of competitiv eadvertising, I shall venture afew ad,tectives which seem tome to describe the frame ofmind of this generation .

Curious, inquisitive, inquir-ing, "broadminded", yet cau-tious .

Never have people andpeoples been so interested i neach other. What makes theother guy tick? How he lives ,thinks, deals with problems an dso on . And never have facili-ties for travel and contact wit hothers been so widely availableand taken advantage of. Or-ganizations for promoting in-ternationals understanding aremushrooming, especially I nstudent circles .

The sciences of sociology ,social-psychology, psychologyand anthropology have becomean integral part of the educa-tion system (in North Americ aanyway) . People are willingto concede that the other gu ymight also have a point of vie wor a different perception of aproblem which it might be im-portant for them to take heedof.

People are either "broad -minded" or they like to think

rulings of the chair .I am sure students will ap-

predate more the work of th eStudents' Council and will !more likely accept the legisla-tion if it is presented sincerel yfor consideration upon its ow nmerits .

To avoid the repetition o frailroading legislation, I rug -nest we make our censur eknown at the spring meetin gin the manner of our participa-tion .

Yours truly ,R . B . Landis ,

they are. It is this tolerancepending inquiry which I taketo be the most hopeful andsimultaneously the most dan-gerous attitude of this genera-tion .

Hopeful, because approach-ing a problem with a fairlyopen mind is the most construc-tive way of reaching a solu-tion, provided all the partici-pants are of the same frame ofmind. -- Dangerous, because toleranceis only to a small degree re-moved from apathy and in-ertia .

ATOMSThis generation faces a prob-

lem without precedent : Atomi cpower. Where two super-na-tions possess the means to ob-literate each other at the dropof a hat, tolerance is thus es-sential to mere survival . In th epresent situation tension wil lkeep up tolerance. But whe ntension is reduced toleranceoften turns to Inertia . To beapathetic in the face of poss-ible selfadestruction is to be afool, and fools are taken ad-vantage of !

A young fellow said to m ethe other day, "You know, thething I would hate most woul dbe to be isolated on a deser tisland with an ignorant mar. .Because he might come up t ome and say 'I don't like thelook of your face' and procee dto split my head open withoutmore ado . "

IGNORANC EI think that this story char-

acterizes a certain attitude o fthis generation. A feeling ofdefenselessness against theforces of ignorance and pre-judice .

What to do in the above sit-uation? Split his head openfirst . But that we are reluctant(if able) to do, until it is to olate .

We have attempted a solu-tion of this dilemma in variousways: Organization of "theforces of reason and broadmindedness" in order to pre -sent a united powerful front .

Withdrawal into Bohemiancircles :

But most important is that ,inherent in the desire to under-stand the other guy, is the wishfor him to understand us . Real-izing this, we attempt to pro -vide him with the means to d othis, namely education .
