• CLOSER co - operationbetween the universitie s

of Canada has been in thepeat echieved 1t) it small, and

very small degree by twonick lettered or~ganization5celled the N .F .C .U.S . (Na-tional Federation of Canad-ian Universily 'Students) andtlu once prominent C .S.A .(the Canadian 'Student As-sembly.) During the pastfew years these organizationshave been abandoned by th emajority of thinking Canad-ian University Students . Theonly pardonable remnant o f

the N.F.C .U .S. is the Canad-ian University press, (th eC.U .P, )DEFUNCT C .U .P .

When the C.U.P, was founded

and organized by abit lees and far -

sighted university journal!stie, the y

intended it to be a significant mile -stone in the welding of Canadian

C'nivcrsitles and student opinion

ncruo :; Canada ,But like m o s t organizations

which are formed by ambitious

idealists, the C .U.P. was doomedto failure Students across Can-ada found that their interests an dgoals conflicted with those of othe r

universities and campi, The uni-versities in the west could nottalk the same language as the uni-versities in the east . Hence, the

C.U.P. degenerated into what it i snow—a ghostly skeleton of an am-bitious project—an exchange sys-tem through which the newspaper sof the different universities of

Crynada are exchanged.We at the University of British

Columbia, nominally belong to the

C.U.P. and to the N.F .C .U .S. The

administration of thees organiza-tions, such as it is, remains and

will continue to remain in the eas t

at such sectional universities as

Toronto, McGill and Queens.

BALANCEI OF POWERTrue elections are held annuall y

to elect the President of these

bodies ; but the balance of the vot-

ing power is tenaciously held bythe Ontario and Quebec univers-

ities . And it is such a short jaun t

by car, phone, or telegraph be-tween these universities that th ewestern universities of Manitoba ,

Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Britis h

Columbia are stymied unless the y

law, Blotz flicked the wingjingand the two waivers into his flab -by torso. With a snap of his fin-gers and a burbling belch Blot z

transformed the wriggling corpse

of Sloppy Joe into a small Air-

dale which quickly ran off in

search of a fire hydrant or relas -

ready eaten it"" The Aggie im-mediately turned purple andquickly depiu'teri . For fully a min-ute the Artsmant continued to guz-zle noisily ; then the awful signi-ficance of Slide's words rank in .Turning green they hastily de -parted for elsewhere ,Nonchalantly pretending to drin k

a cup of Caf cot, Blotz searched

get thgether .But theythave 110 wily of getting

t 1ecther to guarantee a solidivcntern tote .

Cunsequcnlly, the dcm :uuk tur dthe sane ideas of the rest ar ewiled prcntutumiy by rile ,rcti"u-

ali,tic oliii ;uilc of the cool . I e

short, our national unions of uni-versity students are not national .

Far-sighted U.B .C . students re-alizing the weakness of these tw oorganizations looked to the Amer-ican universities along the Pacifi cCoast in California, Oregon andWashington to form an inter-col-legiate union .

PACIFIC UNION NO WSuch an organization would a t

least start on a workable basis, forthe students of U.B .C. have morein common and more in sympath y

with the American students tha nthey have with the students o f

eastern Canada . Before the war ,

U .B .C. sent debating teams toWashington, Stanford and Ree d

College; U .B .C . competed weed yin ski tournaments, truck meets ,and barnstorming basketball tour-neys colleges in the Pacific

North-West . The name of U.B .C . ,her highly efficient student adanin-istration, her internationally her-alded TOTEM, her debating prow-ess, her athletic name and fame ,and the high scholastic record i swell known and respected .

Our closest and most intimate

connection with the American col-leges, their campi, and their ideas ,is with the University of Wash-ington in Seattle . Now it is rum-oured, but effectively denied, tha tWashington student administrators

and U .B .C . councillors will confe r

in Seattle, and they will exchangeideas and policies; and perhap slay the foundation of a permanen t

association of Pacific Coast uni-versities.

If this is fact and not rumor, then

U .B .C . can vision itself, not as anisolated member of narrow sec-tionelistic and obsolescent federa-tion of Canadian Universitie stu-dents but as an integrated memb-er of an international union of

university students along the Pac-ific Coast—a union consisting of

peoples with whom they have

everything in common save nation-ality, a union that will solidl yweld the tacit co-operation amon gthe Universities of California, Ore-gon, Washington, and Britis hColumbia .

He stated that, under the conditions of

modern warfare both in the military force s

and in essential civil industries, there would

be a very large and increasing need for a

steady supply of fully trained men in al l

branches of science, and he expressed the

hope that until particular requirements

could be indicated changes in the ordinary

curricula would be restricted to a minimum .

. In October, 1939 the Minister of Nation -

Snappy Students Smear Stacy's ScientificallyTommy Syme Most

Last Minute Rally

Famed Scienceman

By Ryan, Kermode• THE SCIENCE FACULTY has produced many o f

U.B.C.'s most outstanding athletes and none has brough tmore fame to this campus than Tommy Syme, the stock yred menace of the squared stage . Syme's most recent achieve-ment was his feat of winning the Pacific Notrh West Golde nGloves boxing tournament in Seattle last month .

Born in Scotland nineteen yearsago, Tommy came to Vancouve rat a tender age and has beenfighting for the last seven yearsin Vancouver . Syme first donnedthe gloves for the Meraloma clubunder Tommy Gann at the age ofthirteen. In 1936 and 1937 he wonthe Vancouver city title, defeat-ing Kenny Lindsay in the 1936finals.

Entering U .B.C. in 1939, Sym efought under the colors of Vars-ity's boxing club for the first tim ein the Army Boxing tournamen tlast year . He lost in the finals o fthe soldier scraps to Sailor Mad-den, the victim of a weird decis-ion .

Tommy has an impressive recordto show for his seven years in thering, 'In 68 fights he has lost onlyseven decisions and has neve rbeen knocked out . Of these bouts,Sym has won 57 and drawn four.

Questioned as to whether he willfight professionally, Syme stateddefinitely that he will make En-gineering his profession upo ngraduation . Although Syme is rat-ed better than a number of proscrappers, he regards boxing sec-ondary to his education and wil lnot travel to the Golden Glovesfinals if they interfere with his

academic pursuits .

• EDDIE BENSON: A hockey goalie who excels at stop -

ping shots. Makes excellent passes himself, especially

when he's on ice . Would say more, but Marj is now in town ,

and it would be a dirty trick .

• CAMPBELL WILLIAMS : The "10 second papoose" from

Nanoose. Fast on the track, it's slow compared to meas-

ured time of 9.66 with Sheila .

• KINKS DRUMMOND : Another one of these conscient- '

ibus engineers who has given up his football career fo r

mining, bridge and the+ Gamma Phi's . This one is Audrey .

• MACK BUCK: A fine stalwart, upright young man wh o

leads a clean conscientious life . Is deeply beloved by

his family and his mother .

(Ed. Note:—That's what he says, but we hear he plays

with the scrum at rugby and the scum at the Embassy . He

knows how to work with figures — but she knows all th e

mathematical combinations, too . )

• JACK MacARTHUR : Called "Subtle John by those who

should know—better, is being accused by frat brothers

of owning the brassiere that landed in the middle of the

floor at the Formal last Friday nite . A perfect fit, so they say .
