ENGINEERING ‘WEEKEND Engineering
Semi-Formal
Despite predictions of “another big flop”, the wind-up dance of the Witch’s Moon Weekend was a great success. The numbers were low but the spirits were high. Ted Cambridge, attending without his wife, attempted to nine to take the men’s trophy while find comfort elsewhere. He was Heather Rymer managed to stay seen at one time convincing a group of civil engineers that the centre post supporting the roof of LeisureLodge was at a definite angle and therefore needed support to prevent disaster. According to Ted, if the roof had collapsed the dance would probably have been stopped. The Class of ‘64, old hands at party going, trooped in with their own flag and immediately occupied a large section of the back room. Between sets by the orchestra we were entertained by the ‘64 Glee Club singing sweet renditions of “Happy Birthday” and “Drink, Chug-a-lug”. So many birthdays on one day! The ‘64 flag featured a white chevron on a black chevron with three red rampant champagne glasses on a gold background. Ted Cambridge

was 7:15 p.m. when I arrived at Seagram Stadium. Some had borrowed a banjo and was trying to play it, but the chords didn’t sound too good! The owner showed him the chords and the noise was even worse!
By ‘7:30 p.m. a good-sized group had gathered, and when the wagons arrived they were immediately filled. A lot of Arts,. and Science students were there; probably close to 753/s. The wagon I was on was exceptionally noisy at the beginning of the evening; the other two were much quieter. I suppose they had no singers amongst them. Some nut was taking pictures; it was a very crude thing to do; I hope they turn out. It was not long before several people gave up singing for better things. At one point in the course of the evening an engineer discovered that the hand he was playing with did .
not belong to his girl friend, but to the photographer. Fortunately, the photographer was amused by it all. A stag engineer (and there were a couple of them ) noticed that a sign, removed on the previous year’s hayride, had been replaced. After a number of fruitless attempts to borrow this sign the engineer and his accomplice removed a speed sign, post and all. Not to be outdone the second wagon-load of students removed the next speed sign in a similar manner. With one exception the remainder of the hayride was quiet, short and sweet. The exception -was a small hayfight started by a co-ed, which

everyone on brushing, etc.,
The dance started at 10:00 as scheduled, but because a number of couples r.eturned home to change into their costumes the dance floor was practically empty at first. To be honest, it wasn’t very crowded all evening. The cheerleaders put on a short Pep Rally about 11:OO p:m. It was very good-while it lasted. The girls have apparently put a lot of hours into practice or else they are naturals. Not many couples had costumes, but those who did put on a good show. As usual, though, the engineers displayed a complete lack of interest. Someday they may realize that an education involves more than bookwork and that nightly visit to the Kent or the Circus Room.
Half-way through the evening Ted Cambridge and Dave Wilson managed to stand up and present trophies to the go-kart race winners. The races, held earlier in the day at Erbsville Speedway, had twenty-six entrants in two idivisions-twenty-four men in the Witch’s Grand Prix and two women& the Powder Puff Derby. Jim Newman outclassed a final field of
ahead of her only competitor enough to win the powder-puff ors.
The big band sound of the Leisure Lodge orchestra kept the evening running smoothly. Renditions of Basie, Miller, Shaw and others provided a variety of music for every taste. The Woodchoppers Ball twist was a definite endurance test. It certainly made up for the lack of swizzle sticks. Anything (or anybody) that wasn’t, well mixed after that dance must have been drinking straight ginger-ale, Meanwhile, Ted is still holding up the centre post but it’s a losing battle. The reported highlight of the evening did not materialize. The lack of ‘competent, non - prejudiced judges forced cancellation of the crowning of the Engineering Queen. The task would have been too ‘great anyhow so it was unofficially decided that the title of Queen be given to all girls present. Engineers have the habit of picking the best looking girls. ’ The dance wrapped up Engineering Weekend 1963. See you at Seaside ‘64. Murray
No Liquor Ban af Rye,. TORONTO (CUP)-Ryerson Institute Students’ Council last week refused to crack down on fraternities that are selling liquor illegally. They defeated a motion that would force the council to warn fraternities that handling liquor could leave them open to charges under the Taylor Report-Ryerson’s internal criminal code. One council member said that a r&e& crackdown by Toronto police on frats could result in publicity and public outcry. The publicity would be

detrimental to the name of the Institute, he added. Two frats in Toronto have been “raided” and several members charged with keeping and selling liquor illegally. Other frats have closed their doors to unknown visitors for fear of plainclothes officers entering as outof-town “gnests.” The Taylor Report allows the council to choose judge and jury to conduct the trial of anyone suspected of conduct detrimental to the name of the Institute.

TWO iYPESOF NEWS:
There are two important types of news‘Immediate reward’ news and fklayed reward’ news. The first type is read by teenagers and adults with grade school education. They tend to concentrate their reading on this crime and disaster type of news which provides them with an immediate thrill or ’ reward. Reading of the ‘delayed reward’ type of news increases with the educational level of the reader. As this level continues beyond .high school, readers become increasingly interested in public affairs, ,background news, world affairs, sciences and philosophies. Thus the term ‘delayed .reward’,storing of b information for future use.
DAILY NEWSPAPERS: In the very large metropolitan areas, newspapers can direct their readership to one of the two levels. The New York Times, The New York Herald Tribune, and The Manchester Guardian are examples of newspapers catering to the ‘delayed reward’ news readers, to the intelligent educated mind. On the other hand, The London Daily Mirror and the Daily News (New York) are both examples of newspapers which cater to the masses. These newspapers do not carry politics between elections, ,they avoid articles that presuppose a well informed mind; rather they publish ‘human interest’ articles and violent news.
CANADIAN DAILIES: Jn Canada, no metropolitan centre is large enough to support a newspaper catering to either group. Canadian ewspapers; therefore, tend to blend these two philosophies, carrying some articles of interest to both types of readers - a ‘something for everyone’ attitude. There is one important exception to this Canadian type of newswriting - the college newspapers. College newswriting can aflord to be as sophisticated or commonplace as it likes. In fact the \ college newspaper can afford to be anything it likes. It has a guaranteed circulation equal at least to the University enrollment, and most articles will be read by half this number. The college newspaper, therefore, should direct its readership to a post high-school level, and in most cases it does. But .here’s the point: if conege newspapers are the only totally ‘delayed reward’ newspapers iu Canada, they shbuld appeal to every intelligent, educated person, on or off campus. Well some do. The Varsity (University of Toronto) enjoys a wide off-campus audience; so does The Ubyssey (University of British Columbia). In other words, all the large college newspapers satisfy a need in their community, and so they should - where else is student opinion so nicely nutshelled? Where else can the intelligensia of tomorrow exercise their minds? There is no reason why The Coryphaeus cannot serve a ~imihr purpose in this community. Already ‘Take it or Leave it’ by G. Whiz has a cross-Canada audience. This editor has personally communicated with other Canadian editors (The Ryersonian and The Carleton to name two) who follow his column. Bruce Koepke’s new political column is also gaining some notoriety, to say nothing of the humorists MacDonald and Grafstein.. And when you consider that our newspaper is read by colleges in Europe, the whole field increases again. Why not take part in this paper’s campaign to continue its increases in readership? We have some brains on our paper now, but we need more. Why not use The Coryphaeus to exercise your faculties? I
Dear Sir, You’ve set a new high standard of Coryphaeus excellence with last week’s efforts. However, E. Slop’s article, “jigsaw punzel” has no place in it.

Students, it’s up to you. Arise! Throw off the oppressive yoke of your own fears of being persecuted for the heresy of criticizing your betters and remember the maxim: To each according to his need.’ We need parking that is located close enough to the University buildings so that frostbite will be eliminated from the roster of common ailments that afflict undergraduate student car drivers. If you cannot act, take the consequences of ‘organizing commuting dog sleds to take you from your cars on the stadium lot to your classes. (Remember the high cost of dog food). Mush. M. Kravitz.
As mentioned in last week’s article, Students’ Council, following the seven-hour meeting some time ago, set proceedings in motion to appoint a speaker for future meetings. This action was, to be precise, to set up (1) A nomination committee (2) A selection committee. After three weeks the two committees according to the President, “have made no progress as yet towards obtaining a speaker. “Well, we’ll just keep waiting and see what happens. Wednesday’s meeting was, however, considerably better than the last, due mainly to the appointment of Dave Smith, Science Society President, as chairman of that meeting. Dave conducted the meeting in a fairly orderly fashion and as a result it only lasted four hours. ’ During this time many items were discussed. The first of interest was John Braun’s progress report on The College Union and Campus Centres in Canadian Universities. The planning committee has already received $hirty-one replies from different universities and anticipates an attendance or around one hundred. Following this, Paul Swartz, the Vice President, proceeded to comment on his report about the Student Store. “After considerable thought and experience,” he recommended to Students Council that, “the student store be discontinued and the Students Council work in co-operation with the University Bookstore.” It was his opinion that “the student store is presently in a deplorable state after years of haphazard arrangement and operation.” Incidentally, Mr. Swartz has been running the bookstore for the last few months. His suggestion that students have a hand in the operation of the University Bookstore seems to imply that students would do a haphazard job of this too. Don’t you think that it’s being run haphazardly enough when they claim that one of the main reasons for high prices is the loss due to theft (approximately, they lost well over $4000 last year). Eventually the Council had to table the motions arising from his report, thereby ending his discussion, in order that other business be attended to. Students’ Council, a few weeks ago, set up a Sub-Committee on University Parking at the University of Waterloo. They were to report to the council at the October 16 meeting. Well, report they did-at least Mr. Kraemer did. He reported that they had made no progress to speak of.
The report from the Executive Board did bring to light a good idea on someone’s part. The idea, which is being carried out now, is that the Executive Board read all correspondence to Students’ Council, de. tide on the matter, reply and then report to the council what happened. This method avoids burdening the meetings with a lot of trivial (in most cases) mail. This has in the past taken up a good deal of the time. George Newton gave a well outlined budget and report regarding the Graduatoin Ball. The Graduation Ball committee was forwarded $200 to pay for immediate and near-future expenses. , As most people are now aware, the annual Homecoming is planned for November 8-9. Friday night will see the finish of the building of floats. Probably the only ones that won’t be finishing theirs will be the Engineers. They seem to have a habit of ,stai-ting things that don’t get f&shed. Remember the snow sculptures? Also Friday night will be a dance at Seagram’s Gym. Let’s hope it goes off better than the football dance this week. Apparently the first forty minutes was spent waiting for music. It seems, according to rumours, that the Wives’ Club broke ’ the record player the previous Thursday and it wasn’t reported in time for the dance. How about it Wives’ Club, any truth in this rumour? The next question to raise was that of athletics. The discussion lasted for some time with its theme being: We are thoroughly fed up with the Athletic Department o’f the University of Waterloo. It is the general feeling of the members of council that people are getting their fourteen dollars’ worth from the Department. Are you? In fact, do you realize that you are paying $14.00 a year? Yes, women students too. The furor started when the cheerleaders (can’t get more athletic than that) approached their financial conditions. (To be precise, they The fact that Students’ Council has to pay for yet does not receive the slightest portion of the stimulated the council to draw up a resolution Department expressing their dissatisfaction.

We want to stop smoking, but don’t know how to go about it? A personal account of an ex-smoker, appearing in a national magazine may give you the push you need. The article tells of a unique experiment in Great Britain where anti-smoking clinics have helped smokers by using methods akin to those of Alcoholics Anonymous. Some basic rules outlined in the article: Don’t buy your favourite brand of cigarettes; choose the .brand you like least. Note the times when you desire to smoke the strongest, and delay smoking as long, as possible. Never smoke before breakfast. Postpone smoking after meals as long as you can. Break the habit of always having cigarettes within reach. Never permit hunger. And Good Luck!

1. JACOB AND THE ANGEL
by Nancy Lou Patterson . A wrestling match, you’ say? As a matter of fact it is. Artist Patterson drew her inspiration for this finely executed drawing from a Biblical passage in which Jacob wrestled with an angel. Although wounded by the angel, Jacob won. With this information one can better appreciate this decorative work, which in my opinion is the best of the artist’s contributions. Six of the twenty or so, drawings and paintings, in the group available for rental,iwere done (by Nancy Lou Patterson. “Jacob and the Angel” is appealing for its simplicity and harmonious design. .The two figures are skillfully intertwined and the size and position of Jacob on the right, indicates his superiority in the struggle. The angel on the left, is touching Jacob on the thigh, thereby wounding him. ‘Substance and contrast are provided for, in this ink drawing on rice paper, by the black of the angel’s wings. . * “The story of Jacob and the angel”, said Nancy Lou Patterson, “fascinates \ me-the idea of man dealing directly with God and prevailing.” Mrs. Patterson received her B.A. degree in Art from the University of ,Washington. She is the wife of Professor Palmer Patterson of the History department, St. Jerome’s College. . In connection with the Doon School of Fine Arts, (which is affiliated with U. of W.) Mrs. Patterson taught in the children’s drama classes during the summer. As a guest lecturer in History 100 at Renison College she will give a series of ten lectures on Art History. One of her tempera paintings in the exhibition, “Enclosed Garden”, depicts i a garden at night. The artist explains that a garden is a feminine symbol and when enclosed becomes symbolic of virginity. This type of symbolism, often religious, appears in several of her works. In this painting purple is the lpredominant colour, (“it was the only colour I had left!“) and subtle contrast appears in the form of gold-tinged garden plants. The arrangement and number of plants gives a somewhat ‘diddly’ effect; which, I think, detracts. The artist has reflected the size of the paper in the portrayal of the subject matter. One is first impressed with the squarishness of things. Mrs. Patterson states that she has purposely fashioned her contributions for on a smaller scale, that they might be suitable for hanging . thisa exhibition ‘I 1. These paintings and drawings were on display in our excellent gallery in the Arts’ Theatre Foyer. They are now much less advantageously exhibited in the Engineering and Science Library. At U. of W. last year, Mrs. Patterson volunteered her time and ability for the designing of most of the exhibition brochure covers and the writing of all of the artidles contained therein.

FOLK SINGING ‘‘Sing along’ rings out the battle cry on campuses across Canada and sing along we do. Hoot. Hoot. Hoot. Everybody sings songs of labour unions, civil rights struggles, work songs, love songs (unrequited or consummated), but what do they know or care about the songs or- their subjects? Not that there is anything wrong +with participating in a mass group activity-but the fact that most are moved to do so with so little knowledge of what they are doing has frightening ramifications. The mass hypnosis applied by Hitler in his Third Reich has a pattern which is disturbingly similar. , So, get up off your overworked posteriors and learn, learn, learn, something about the activity in which you are participating. For instance, did you know that there are folk singers around other than the Kingston Trio (who tire go.od rock ‘n’ rollers), or Ian and Sylvia (who aren’t part of the ‘folk’ any more) or the Tarriers (who are just ,plain .t& rible), folksingers like Seeger, Malka and Joso, Bonnie Dobson, etc.;%& ‘1;I i / % .
FAD’ OR ,FALACY? Also, attempt to use your intelligence to obtain information regarding the songs you so gleefully render, i.e., empirical approach to love songs (that’s the only way), history of social strife and union struggles for mo& of the American folk songs’ (the U.S. is still strifetorn in this way), or any way available tlu~. You could join the Folk Song I Most folk singers and fellow travellers as well as casual acquaintances are just too blamed lazy, ignorant or, as in the case of Mariposa this year, drunk, to becomesomewhat knowledgeable about an activity to which they allot so much of their energy and time. For the aforementioned reasons some students have been diligently. working on a”:Winter Folk Song Festival in conjunctioti’ with Winter Wonderland, including several workshops on Folk Mi&ic’: ‘So.come on you ignoramussesyou @l soon have your oppotitunity to get knowledge. ,~ ,/I’.I8%!$+$tt$e 7 _/ .f L,’ M.1 Kravitz I 3-/.
CAMPUs ‘DEVELOPMENT At first sight, our campus is a scattering of buildings, mounds of earth, a, few trees and many spaces. Who would think that nearly every square inch of it is accounted for by the planning department! Realizing that most universities are crowded for space today, a block of land bounded by the railway on the east, Hallman Road on the west and Bearinger Road on the north was purchased. This does not include a parcel of land on the other side of Bearinger Road which will be given to the Grand Valley Conservation Authority for a resorvoir and which will be landscaped as parkland to fit in with the overall effect of the University’s future landscaping. These recent acquisitions will make the University of Waterloo, a wedge-shaped campus nearly four-and-a-half miles long. Not all of the new land has specific uses yet, but it is there for future expansion. At present two new buildings are planned. There will be an Arts Library between the Physics and present Arts Building. When the second Arts Building is completed behind the hill, it will become the centre of the campus for the three main groupings of buildings: Arts, Science, and Engineering. The library as the focal point is the only building in white brick. The library will have three floors to start, but as more room is needed six more floors will be added. The library is designed to serve the Arts Faculty. The .present library staff comprises twenty-
nine persons and it is anticipated that this will increase to sixtylfive to seventy by 1970. Once the drainage pipes have been permanently installed, trees will be planted These will be young trees (they’re cheaper), and will be placed in such a way that when they are full-grown will interrupt and soften the straight flat, lines of the roofs. Another place of future construction will be the Mediterranian village atmosphere of the residences to be built on the west side of Laurel Creek. Near the residence there will be a grass bowl that can be used for hootenanies and gatherings. Because university buildings are among the few that remain to reflect the period in which they were built, the university buildings are simple contemporary, with utility always in mind. To build the collegiate Gothic so popular with many universities would be expensive in construction and maintenance. To cut ofI’ the view of the industrial buildings on the east side of the railway tracks, Australian Pines, a quick-growing variety, will be planted along the embankment by the C.N.R. Because university life is mostly ‘pedestrian’ on campus, very few accommodations have been provided for cars. Most parking lots are hidden behind small hills. Margaret Shaw.

JIM
Jules et Jim, a film by Francois Truffaut, was made in France, and is truly French, as only French might be. Jules, a German, and Jim, a Frenchman, develop a strong friendship, and, shortly, a woman, Catherine, serves to make the party a threesome. With this basis, the story progresses into a study of friendship and love, the differentiation between them not made entirely clear. In short, the plot becomes complicated enough when it seems that Catherine just cannot make up her mind; then, there’s such a ridiculous amount of
bed hopping by the leading lady, that the situation is quite amusing; however, such practice becomes so monotonous by the end of the movie that the atmosphere turns to boredom and disgust. Finally, the wild Catherine drives Jim and herself over the end of a pier, to leave Jules with two urns full of cremated bones. Luckily, Truffaut has added a light touch to his production and very effective camera shots. Even so, the movie does not merit the buildup it had been given on cam s, and, the Film Society wasted a heck of a Pot of energy in getting it. &l. EIarwood

Sports Representatives are needed from each intramural unit. The de’adline-for entering teams in hockey and basketball is October 3 1. This year, ea&h unit may enter as many teams in hockey and basketball as it so desires, but they must be submitted before October 3 1 to Pat Galasso, Intramural Director.
A’ fighting Warrior team came onto the field in the first quarter. On the Gee-Gees’ first play, a heavy tackle landed by a Warrior enabled Doug. Peacock to pick up the fumble and Warriors found themselves on Ottawa’s 2 yard line. pick Aldridge easily rammed through for a. T.D. and with Terry Joyce’s convert, the Warriors led 7-O.
The tennis tournament is still going on. The largest slate of competitors ever (a total of 56) showed up on the day of the tournament. Naturally, it ,&uldn’t be completed in one day; so, deadlines have been posted for each round with the finals taking place at the end of October. The great number of entries (one, cannot say they were all players) was caused by a certain rivalry between St. Paul’s and Renison as well as the other units. The Swimming Meet will take place on November 12th at 7:00 p.m. in the Kitchener YMCA. Let’s see each unit with a. full slate of swimmers and divers to make it a real success. Top comment
at the track meet: “He may be small, but he sure is slow...”
I On Tuesday evening a group of cross-country runners went down to McMaster to compete in the Harriers. Next week the results will be reported. It was announced at the Intercollegiate track meet in Toronto that there will be an indoor intercollegiate meet on Friday afternoon, January 25, in Maple Leaf Gardens. Special note to all those who are out of shape: It is not too late to get outand train for this meet . . .
Ottawa, getting the ball after the kickoff marched downfield, but a, fumble on the Warrior grid line was recovered by Tex Houston to stop that drive. Terry Cooke moved the team down into Ottawa territory with passes to Jim Massie and hand-offs to Jock Tindaie, Bob Benedetti and Aldridge. Here Joyce kicked for a single point making the score Warriors 8, Gee Gees 0.
St. Paul’s just squeaked by Arts in receiving ,the greatest number of points in the Track and Field. Congrats go out to you, St. Paul’s, since this is your first year ‘. . . The Rowing team has been practising dihgently these last few weeks and I am politive that they are going to bring a great deal of fame to the U. of W. It is rather sad to see the Rugger ,Team goin’g down. I’m sure there are lots of fellows who want to play, but where are they? With the Warrior’s third loss, automatically everyone has become an exrt on football and how to direct the team to wins. I hope Dick Aldridge’s !Iii ee is all right; he got some rough treatment on Saturday as did many other *Warriors. It would be interesting to see Dick in as quarterback for one entire game . . . I What has happened to the cheerleaders? This year, they all yell together, they. all do the actions together, and those cartwheels! What timing!!

On Thursday, October 10, an intramural girl’s tennis tournament was held at the, tennis courts in Waterloo Park. There were four competitors. Congratulationi are in order to Miss .Libby Uttley who emerged victorious. An intramural program h,as been outlined for the year 1963.-64. It is to be found in the Intramural Varsity Athletic Handbook, which was handed out on registration day. Swimming, bowling, badminton, volleyball, basketball, archery, and table tennis tournaments have all been planned. Arts I, II, III, IV, Renison, St. Paul’s ,,and St. Jerome’s are in competition against one another. Points will be allotted throughout the year to the above on the basis of- the number of girls participating, and the winners of the various events. , Since girls are increasing in number on our campus, next year’s athletic plans call for the appointment of a Woman Physical Education Instructor. Active participation in the program outlined for this year would be a good start. Women have full use of Seagram Gymnasium facilities (including showers) on Thursday evenings after 8:30.I p.m. Beginning in November we will be .,able to use the gym any time after 7 p.m. on Thursday evenings. Participation ‘in these sports and employment of gym facilities affords a wonderful ‘opportunity for healthful exercise and a chance to become acquainted with girls you may not know. Watch your Athletic Handbook and the bulletin board for upcoming events. Notices will soon be posted as to the time and place for the swimming Jan Ross. I and bowling meets.

The defense seemed to be wqrking weil, when suddenly, Jim Chiarelii passed to Davidson of Ottawa who went 55 yeards for the second Gee Gee T.D. Again, the convert was no good and the score stood 12-8. An Ottawa fumble in the second quarter was recovered by Houston, but on the next play there was a pass interception to nullify any Warrior hopes in the first half.
the score to 3 l-8 which end of the gam’e.
The Ottawa Gee Gees are a heavy fighting team, with a line averaging 220 pounds. And, although our mer hit their men hard, they hit our mer harder and with some rough play in, volved which was not usually detect, ed by the referees. Nearly every member of the Warriors got hit hard and has some sores, but the one big loss could be Dick Aldridge who played most of the game with a badly stiffened knee. Doug Peacock played a good game for the Warriors making some hard and accurate tackles to bury the hefty Gee Gees. But actually one can only say that it was a team effort and, consequently, a team loss.
In the second half the Warriors appeared to lose their strong offense of the first half and the defense slacked up a bit too. A 70 yard run by Scanion of Ottawa gave the Gee Gee’s another T.D. But once again the convert was no good as Pete Messner was in to block the kick. The score now remained 18-S. I1 “In the fourth quarter Ottawa moved the ball right down for a touchdown on a series of rushes and passes. This time, the quarterback, Chiarelli, got the T.D., but with the convert again missed the score was 24-8.

The important thing is that ‘these men tried, their hardest and have proved themselves capable . in intercollegiate sports. Now that we have a nucleus of’. track and field runners, we can go on to victories. The majority of the track team are first year students. r

Pour many ans, nous Canadian speaking Canadiens (et Canadiennesap&s all, dames, c&t vos fault as much as nos) have thought que nous were superior. Mais les people de Quebec have lately been demanding un recognition de leur culture aussi. Je think que their demands Cannes be mett. ionale word there know
To begin avec, nous could (dans deference de le French order and add the odd ‘e’, would have to be revisions que nous had deux cultures.
adopt ‘Oh Canada’ as norte antheme natone should de temps en temps change the but only when you feel like it). Naturally so que someone du Outer Slotputs would It would aller something comme this:
Oh, Canada Notre maison et native land, True patriot amour , Comme on trouve B Paris. Avec glowing noses we see thee rise Le true nord strong et free; Nous sit on guard Oh, ‘Canada, Nous sit on guard pour she. Oh, Canada, Glorious de civil guerre Oh, Canada, Still dans her underwear: Oh, Canada, Vous make us sit and stare. Si that doesn’t donne one pride
de nationale,
je don’t know
what will.
Mais there’s un autre problem. Avec les glowing noses nous must voir something rise. Since nous don’t have un flag, je have un autre suggestion. A Ottawa, erecte un grande flagpole et then, not necessarily in the following order, start stringing up some of Canada’s heroes nationale: M. Gordon, avec le national debt tied around son neck; a few membres de ’ F.L.Q. with home made bombs attache a leur pieds, Mlle. LaMarsh avec un carton de Russian cigarettes, M. Diefenbaker with un speech he can liser, M. Caouette avec his grumbles, M. Pearson to tell everyone que l’information est classified so il cannes’t show it to le Maison de Common, a member de ’ R.C.M.P. so that les visiteurs would know quel country they were dans; et un judge de federal court so that un royal commission could be carried out sur cette new flag avec no delay. Of course, vous could add some de vos favorites just to make it plus gratifying. As vous Cannes tell by maintenant, le language est no problem. Simply use votre tongue de native, follow mon former suggestions, and liberally sprinkle with the language de vos autres Canadians. Avec respect de some of l’autre grievances, je think that they Cannes be solved aussi. Les Canadian French sont harping toujours about getting jobs aver le C.N.R. - je say let them take over le hole thing. Under M. Donald Gordon it loses beaucoup de millions of dollars per year so let les French pay for it.

Student Christian Movement The university climate is one of multiple ideas and beliefs. The Student Christian Movement (S.C.M.) is set within this given situation. It sees its role as providing a meeting ground for honest encounter between Christians and enquirers, sponsoring discussion groups, conferences, lectures, Bible study, and campus events such as the Winter Carnival. The two main objectives of the S.C.M. are: -to help Christian students to an understanding of Christian faith. -to present Christian faith in a language and setting which will draw the doubter and non-Christian to a critical consideration of the claims for Christ. The Student Christian Movement believes that one’s work is related to one’s faith and worship. Various aspects of S.C.M. programme emphasize this, but especially the Summer Works Camps. Here students spend their summer holidays living in a Christian community while working in industry, mental hospitals, white collar jobs and leadership programmes. It is felt that students with the experience offered by these camps leave them with a deeper understanding of how the other person feels. Thus a firm sense of responsibility in the modern world is achieved. The S.C.M. at both local and national levels has been and is a medium for denominations to make inter-church co-operation a reality by the presence of students from the various denominations in S.C.M. group, and other means such as the Book Room’s service to the Ecumenical Movement providing books required by all denominations. The S.C.M. of Canada provides the means which Canadian students have contacts around the globe by such things as Jobs Worth Doing, a comprehensive listing of, openings with church boards, national and international agencies. It is the only publicatioh * of its kind in Canada. This outline of the purpose and functions of the Student Christian Movement has been brief. The S.C.M. group on this campus while only a year old, is, we feel, very strong. You are invited to attend their Firesides held every other Sunday.

RENISON. Respectfully dedicated to St. Paul%. (To the tune of ‘this Land’) We smelled the odor of burning chicken Refrain. Oh it was awful, we had to’eat it St. Paul’s is your college and you can have it Refrain. Cause we don’t w&tit and we don’t needit As we went walking down by the lake We hate the residence, we hate the students We smelled the odor of burning steak Oh it was awful, we’ had to eat it St. Paul’s was made for only you. As we went walking down by the kitchen St. Paul’s was made for only you. If you happen to walk through the Renison breezeway, otherwise known as the WIND TUNNEL, you may be startled by the appearance of a rather odd wooden structure that ‘at first glance appears somewhat like a cage, or a sphere, or something. As your presence becomes noticed by the crew of diligen&workers, they fix you with suspicious g&w and emit what can only be described ‘as most unfriendly noises. However, if your &&rage is strong and you work up the nerve to timidly enquire what the marvellous structure is, you will be told “Waddya think, a revolving backhouse, of course”, A very serious omission was made in last week’s column. Mr. Richard W&lake, the President of RenisonStudent Council, is in the faculty of Engineering and is in his Fourth year. Apologies. to engineers in general, and ‘Boogie’ in particular. The Renison Social Committee announces that there will be a ‘Meet Renison’ dance on Nov. 2 in the dining hall. Dancing is from 8:30 to 12 with the admission price of 50 cents single and 75 cents per couple. Why do all the Sophs. in Renison have flat feet? From STOMPING out the Frosh flames! (So far, they have been totally unsuccessful in their efforts---even with the aid of fire extinguishers and buckets of water.) This’coming weekend silence will stalk the halls of Renison, not because anyone is STUDYING, but Tbecausethe majority of students will have made a mass exodus shouting “TO OTTAWA, CHARGE!” - Fran. ST. JEROME’S. ’ ,i,c A Weekend at St. Jerome’s This was a weekend to be remembered at St. Jerome’s. It started out on Friday night with a Jam Session which revealed all our talent. Our own orchestra entertained us for over an hour with great jazz: there was George Johnstone on trumpet, Nelson Cot6 on sax, Norm Hendricks on drums, and Jim Percy and John Miller on guitar. Each one of these fine musicians not ,only managed, on their first time playing together, to sound terrific in the group numbers, but also showed some magnificent solo style. This broke up when someone called for some folksongs, and Dave Becker (St. Jerome’s answer to Tommy Smothers) tried to lead a sing a long-nobody would sing. Since the Notre Dame girls had invited us over there for a dance and card party, which was nice since they had borrowed all our tables (and you know who carried them over), we adjourned to there. It was a very inspiring evening, except for one thing-just as I was beginning to enjoy playing cards with the girls, they made us dance. Not that I don’t like dancing, I would just rather play cards.‘The evening ended on an exciting note-Gary Marsh let us watch him wind his watch. Saturday saw the St. Jerome’s boys all rushing to the football’game. We all sat behind the Ottawa bench and entertained them with some original anti-any-other-team-but-ours cheers, the main contribution being from the one and only Vello-SOWEEEEEEEEE . . . .: We also had some constructive cheers such as: “Repel them;“; “Seagrams, Seagrams, Vat 69-” Not to mention Emil and his bugle leading the “CHARGE ! ! ! “. Although the ’ team lost, the fellows thoroughly enjoyed the game. Sunday: well, we did homework. -VB ST. PAUL’S : The big news this week from our Saintly Halls (quiet, too-Mon. through Thurs. 7-11 p.m. the noise you hear at ll*Ol is the Frosh Science boys announcing Noisy Hours.) is the recent meeting of the temporary Principal’s Advisory Committee, in power until the formal Student’s Council elections at, the beginning of Nov. Plans were made for the Fri. night dance, which turned out to be very successful, and for our big entry in the Homecoming Parade (History was never like this). Intramural sports will be in the hands ,of Dave Sutton this term. Plans include the organization of curling for St. Paul’s and the line-up of the most fearsome.array of basketball, hockey, etc. entries in the history of the Hill (you think Renison had a,lot of guys out for volleyball last year- we’*ve ordered 3 busses to take our entry to this year’s tournament. (Can anyone at Renison lend Dr. Hall a pair of running shoes?) At this point I should like to digress to the point of momentarily reassuming my last year’s allegiance to “The College on the Hill” by taking issue with Mr. Fleming% statement in last week’s issue that St. Jerome’s “will-CLOBBER that would-be-college-on-the-hill (Please use capitals next time) in hockey-ONCE MORE”..Now if I remember correctly, ’ we handily took St. J.‘s in tow by the score of something like 6-2. So what’s with the”clobber-once more” stuff. Done! I am now a loyal St. Pauler again. J&f Evans And meanwhile the Chess Tournament swings into its third round. *
