Student Veterans,
Squatters Combine
REPRESENTATIVES of 13 families of squatters now at
Little Mountain agreed Saturday to move into quarters as -
signed them by Dr. Shruin, head of the IJBC extension de-
partment .
A meeting Friday night In the
former sergeants mess of the Littl eMountain Barracks, executiv emembers of the UC Branch 72,Canadian Legion -who instrumentedthe hut transfer, told members ofthe Little Mountain Squatters' As-sociation that the university would"treat them in the same way as
student veterans", and would housethem in a building in the camp i f
Frosh MendMisdeedsAt Smoker
The prosecutor levelled a stern
finger at the quivering accused .
"You," he thundered, "were foun d
talking to a poor innocent Fresh-ette during your initiation period .
This heinous crime must be pun-ished to the fullest extent of the
law. Your honour, and gentlemen
of the juryg I demand a verdict o f
guilty ." As the required verdict
was delivered a wild yell of blood
lust rose from the audience and
another victim was led to his un-speakable doom.
The scene of this ghastly tribun-
al was laid in the Armories last
Friday night at the traditional
Fiosli Smoker .
Punishments fitting the crimes
were meted out with assembly line
precision . "Hanging Judge" Kirk-patrick was on the bench to see
that the trial was carried out ac -
cording to the laws of justice.
An egg shampoo was massaged
Into the hair of the first * of the
many convicted. A second was
forced to box a stalwart upper-
classinan. The unfortunate Fresh
was handicapped slightly by the
addition of a blindfold.The blue-tinged atmosphere caus-
ed by about 500 Fresh energeticall y
puffing away on freely supplied
pipes, cigarettes and cigars only
served to heighten the affect of
the jokes and raucous ditles which
were blared from the mikes.
ENTERTAINMENTFeature entertainer of the ev-
ening was Vancouver's celebrated
comedian, Fran owie, who with
is versatile father, kept the aud-ience in gales of laughter with hi s
interretation of a co-ed gettin g
dressed in the very early morn-
ing . His father's piano and yoice
provided a variety of musical en-
tertainment .The victuals for the evening con-
aisted of gallons of pickles, round s
of cheese and crackers and over a
thousand cokes .
VENGEANCEThe only unhappy event of the
evening occurred when a crow d
of Sciencemen ripped the ignition
'- wrc! from almopt, all the cars
parked outside the Armories, stall-
ing the cars and forcing the un-
fortunate drivers to attempt to re-
store the firing order by the ai d
of flickering matches .
IN AUSTRIA

senior air officer in the Allied

DOG COLLAR

STAFF THIS ISSUE: Senior Editor, Don Ferguson ; Associate Editor, Ken Weaver ,
RESPONSIBILITYA quick glance at the Ubyssey masthea d
will show that the paper has added a ver yimportant sentence to it this year, namely :"Editorial opinions expressed are those o fthe Editorial Board of the Ubyssey and no tnecessarily those of the Alma Mater Societ yor of the University. "
Most readers always correctly understoo dthat to be the case.
This year, the Ubyssey is serving a recordnumber of students and it is also contactinga larger number of readers outside the Uni-versity. Because that is so, the EditorialBoard thought it best to add that sentenc eto the masthead so that no one would be i ndoubt .
Responsibility for editorial opinions ex-pressed in university newspapers is alway sa matter for argument . Practically all col-lege journals now follow a policy simila rto that expressed in the Ubyssey masthead.
There is usually much argument, but littlereal concern, about editorial comment o ncampus affairs . Most student readers see mto feel that the editors, by their work, shoul dhave knowledge on those affairs which quali-fies them to comment .
Furthermore, in case of disagreement an ystudent may submit articles or letters at-tacking editorial opinions .
More concern is felt about the matter o fcomment on non-university affairs, such asnational or international politics . Many stu-dent groups on the campus would have theUbyssey become the mouthpiece of their
SOMETHING that constantly amazes me is the public 'ssense of humor. Now, don't be annoyed; by the public Imean that vast number of human beings in the lower intelli-gence brackets; therefore, we niay proceed to examine thi stopic further and quite impersonally .
The public prides itself on pos-sessing a sense of humor; admit-
tedly, it has one . (In fact, thismight be regarded as its one col-
lective sense) . To the sensitiveintelligence, sublety of humor Isthe epitome of wit ; to the prim-itive public, however, humor is athing harsh and obvious. Practic-ally any movie is an illustrationof that thing, in that if the publi cknows beforehand that the pres-entation is funny, they will laugh ,or perhaps even "laff" if it hitstheir eye hard enough ,
LITTLE LAUGHSMany little laughs are muc h
more to be desired, apparently,
than one big laugh, as anyon ewho has gritted his teeth at theincessant guffaws of a theatre orradio audience will have observed ,
But what makes the pub1: :laugh? Anything It seems that hasmade it laugh before ; that is ,variations on a certain few, ever-recurring themes, well-seasone dand well-tested. There is nothin ghumorous in the unfamiliar, sinceno one likes to be taken unawares .A few stock subjects are auto-matically funny: for example,mothers-in-law, Irishmen, ine-briates and hen-pecked husbands.
REASONS
Why does the public laugh a tthese? It probably laughs at themother-in-law and the hen-peck-ed husband because it delights In
THE PLANS of CBC'a Torontorepertory group—Stage 47 thisyear—farce me into a fleetingmoment of benignity. Carrying onfrom its season of original Can-adian plays, last winter, the grou pis this year lengthening its broad-cast time to a full hour everySunday afternoon, and broadeningits scope to include with the orig-inal plays a wide selection o f
classics.First in the series, which began
last Sunday, was Christophe rMorley's successful Trojan Horse 'to be followed next Sunday byJane Austen's delightful 'Prideand Prejudice. '
My list of choice items to coniccontains several plays well worth
; tentlon . Top of the list might', ell be Sophocles 'Oedipus Rex, '
'narking as it does the summitet ancient Greek theatrical ach-
lcvement . This magnificent andterrible play, outstanding as anexample of the retrospective styl eof drama, rises and falls again in
an unbroken curve of tension, as
Oedipus probes out the truth
which destroys him .Another on my list, Isben's
'Enemy of the People,' was one ofthe three Isben plays called forthby the widespread attack on'Ghosts.' It depicts the fate of a
man who tries to bre .f the web
The Editor
Dear Sir :
As women's page editor of th e
Oregon Daily Emerald, I have bee n
scanning college and University
newspapers over the country look-
ing for suggestions and ideas . I
remembered having seen your fea-
ture "Beauty on the Spot," and re-
called that it was popular last year
when it was running . We woul d
like to try a similar column here
at Oregon, and wondered if you
would grant permission. We could
change the name of the article bu t
if you permit, would rather leave
the Beauty on the Spot unchanged ,

of petty invested interest and bur•eaucracy in the pursuit of hisduty, and it culminates with aclear and vigorous statement ofIsben's revolutionary social an dmoral views.
And, of course, no represent-ative dramatic series would becomplete without something fro mShakespeare . The play selected i nthis case is the not so well knownhistory, 'Richard IL '
This play with its fluid poetryand wise humanity, constitutes ,with the stark and furious 'Rich-ard III,' a pair comparable withthe constrasting pairs of Beet-hoven symphonies . Again the twoplays are comparable historically ,in that 'Richard II' is the prologu eto the Civil War plays of which'Richard III' is the close and epi-logue . But more than this it isa play of great political signifi-cance, with its pitting of the real-istic ambition of Bolingbrok eagainst the flawed genius o fRichard .
In addition to these three, theseries will include plays anddramatizations of novels by Field-ing and Dickens ; Chekov, Gogoland Dostoievsky; Metiers and deMaupassant . Among the Canadia nworks to be presented are playsby Kemp, Tweed, Sinclair, Peter -son and Noxon, and an adaptation

own social or political philosiphies, and th eeditors must carry on a constant battle to 'keep the student newspaper unbiased insuch matters .
The members of the Editorial Board, whothemselves do not share any common phil-osophy on non-university affairs, realize ful lwell that they could not hope to expres seditorially the social or political policies ofall the student body . For that reason, theyshall strive to forego such comment, exceptin cases where the great majority of th estudent body indicate the desirable stan dfor the student newspaper to take .
Of course, the writers of regular article sof opinion who are graced with the titl eof "columnists" are free to deal with anytopic within the limits of libel and decency .Those columnists must follow three guides :the material must be well written; thematerial should interest student readers; andthe writers must bear responsibility for thei ropiibhaving their names printed wit hthles,
DRAMA BY EARLE BI RN EYWriters of letters to the editor also hav e
complete freedom of expression . Because ofthat, the Ubyssey feels that the authorsshould bear the same responsibility for thei ropinions as do the columnists .
To that end, the editorial board has ruledthat all published letters to the editor mustbear the real name of the writer. It is ex-pected that this will prevent vicious senti-ments from being displayed behind the cow-ardly cover of pseudonyms,
TO OPEN CBC FEATUREBy ISABEL MACKINNON
THIS WEEK, the new winter drama series of the CBC ,Vancouver Theatre is being opened with the presentation o fthe play "Court Martial", a script founded on the experience sof the Canadian Army in northwest Europe . All programmesare being planned and supervised by Mavor Moore, CBC pro-ducer, who has come to British Columbia to recommence hi sradio career after service with the Canadian Army .
Dr. Earle Birney, celebrated Can-adian poet, collaborated with Mr .Moore on the script of "CthtrtMartial" during the time the two
men were together on the staff ofCBC'a International Shirt Wav eService . Although noted for hisublished books of poetry, Mr . Bir-ney has written this time, in prose .
ARMY SETTINGFor its plot the play draws on
his experience as chief personne lofficer with the Canadian Army inHolland where he held the rank ofMajor, The story, the court mar-tial of a young private chargedwith attempted suicide, aims tomaintain as closely as possible thetension of the original scene onwhich the play is based .
The close relationship betweenEarle Birney and Mavor Moore hasgrown over a period of years . Thefirst reading of Mr . Birney's poemsover CBC from Toronto was under

SCM SEEKSWIDER APPEAL
THIS YEAR a new faction of
the SCM promotes a more direc t
approach to Christianity as a per-sonal religion .
Their proposals would em-phasise a study of religious prob-lems as they concern the individ-

those who feel that the central
religious problems are the econ-omic and political problems of
today .
It is hoped that a composite pro -
gram may make the appeal of the
SCM more universal .

calibre, the students should find
some very worthwhile competition
on the grassy fields this year . Next
Saturday is the big day, and under
the watchful eyes of coaches Haines
and Seger, the boys should be in
first class condition.
Despite the fact that two of the
stars of the 15, Don Nesbitt and
Doug Reid, are playing American
Football, and won't be available
until after Christmas, there aremany newcomers who should fill
the bill well, and give Varsity a
couple of strong fifteens to field .
Among these who should win a
place on the teams are Lott, Mac -Keachie and Latham, ex Vic Col-
lege men, who all played for Vic -torla Rep last year.
Besides the two senior teams i tis planned to enter two or threeteams In the second division. Any-
one interested in playing is guar-anteed plenty of action If they turnout to any of the practice sessions,tentatively set for 4 :30 to 6 :00 onTuesdays and Thursdays .

HAUNTED by the sombre spectre, Time, the fifty-oddcharges, currently pounding the gridiron under the barbe dtongue-lashing of Coach Greg Kabat, can be seen everyevening desperately rounding out their training schedule .Slated to take the field against the 'Willamette Bearcats onSaturday, the prospective Thunderbirds have been very ,very busy smoothing out the rough spots that threaten t ohamper seriously Kabat's dream of the well-oiled machin eneeded to compete with the American aggregation .
Fate threw a dangerous snar e
into the backfield combination ,
when starry Robert Murphy was
laid temporarily law with a recur-rence of the knee injury which
plagued him last season when h eperformed on the roster of theFighting Irish of Vancouver Col-
lege. Last year a torn cartilage
kept the powerful fullback on the
bench for a good part of the sea-son, and it Is feared that the ail-
ment might have cropped, up again .However, the medicos hope to have
Murphy back in the lineup for
the initial contest.
Aside from Murphy's absence ,
panrtikas have, been proceeding
with complimentary results to Ka -
bat's coaching prowess.
WILSON FILLS IN
Turning in a stellar performance
filling Murphy"s size ten cleats is
Rex Wilson, diminutive speedste r
and letterman on the 1945 HardyCup team . Aided by a fair dis-
play of blocking, Wilson has sha-ken himself loose from potential
tacklers on frequent occasions to
rack up considerable yardage .
Phil Guman, a 190 pound pro-duct of the 1941 Kitsilano steam-
roller and three years in the Ai r
Force, has regained the form tha tmade him an essential cog in Ka -bat's championship powerhouselast season . Freddie Joplin con-
tinues to set up the backfieldpower with his accurate blocking,
and has developed into a fair line-
backer in the process.
DOUG REID HOT
Passer and ground-gainer deluxeis Dougie Reid, another Kit's pro-digy, who seems at this point tobe fairly certain of a first-stringberth .
Herbie Capozzi, Phil Nixon, an dGordie Genge, look like the pick o fthe linemen, while the Seines bro-
thers, Gus and Bill remain strongcontenders as ends .
But no matter who finally nailsthe positions on the line, one factstands out conspicuously : the 'Bird sare sadly lacking in defensiv estrength . The front wall has notbeen charging, and until UBCtacklers can power in and per-meate the opposition's backfiel dbefore it gets moving, Varsity wil lbe consistently heading for theshowers on the shallow end of areverse score.
Soccer Team sSplit Openers
THE OPENING of the 194647
soccer season saw the Varsity and
UBC squads break even in Sat-
urday's games. On the campus the
powerful Varsity squad defeated
Coquitlam 6-2. The team was
paced by the return of several
of last year's veterans and many
new additions from the UBC
eleven and campus newcomers .
UBC lost to Norquay 4-2 .
Gordy Shepherd and Bill Thom -
as from last year's UBC club le uthe onslaught with two goals
apiece . Hank Sager, a newcomer ,
and Stu Todd from last year's
team completed the scoring. Theteam, playing heads-up ball offen-
sively and defensively, gaveMoreton in the Varsity net an
easy time of it. Especially bril-liant on defense were the Blueand Gold backs Jack Cowan, Ke nMeyers, and Stan Nicol .
At Norquay Park the UBC ag-gregation was unluky in losing a
close decision to Norquay by a
score of 4-2. Playing together for
the first time the team held Nor-quay on even terms during the
first half, both crews running in
two goals . UBC counters were
scored by Bill McKay and Le x
Henderson, both markers coming
from passing attacks by the UBC
forwards. In the second half Nor-quay's experience and condition-ing proved invaluable enablingBill Hartwig, who notched all 4
Norquay goals to push in the win-ning counters . With more practic e
and league competition the tea m
should improve over its initia l
performance. Saturday's line-ups
were : VARSITY: G. Moreton, J .
Cowan, K. Meyers, S. Nicol, G .
MacSween, A Temoht, P. Har-
rison, G . Shephera, E. Thomas ,
H. Sager, and S. Todd. Subs: G.
Biddle, S. Wilson .

M. McLeod, G . Midwinter, E .Genovesse, H. Ross, J . Blackball ,
