JOURNAL OF ·THE EVENING STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION

SIR GEORGE WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY volume / ONE - number / EIGHT Montreal - november eighteenth / 68

I HEYi GEORGIAN I COMMERCE WEEK AT SGWU Seldom is a small journal such as The Paper accorded the

honour of mention in two world renowned publications such as

Time Magazine and The Georgian. In the latter case we are most appreciative. The Georgian, with its seven private offices, one large general office, fifteen desks, seven typewriters, eight phones and much ancillary equipment located in well over 2,000 square feet of the 6th floor has picked on the poor little Paper.

Our inability to produce a journalistic effort to their standards out of one small 600 square foot room with one phone, one typewriter, four desks (one borrowed from the E.S.A.) and a budget less than one third of their own has been brought to the world's attention. Gee! Or should I say, "What the fuck" - yes, gentlemen - fuck. We know these "dirty" four letter words. The difference between The Paper and the sixth floor effort in abstract irrelevance is that we cater to the students. All of them! Any of our readers who manage to get through the puke that the

pea-brains of your rag's editorial board put out will know all

about the University of Montreal, Dow Chemical, Norman Strax of the University of New Brunswick, NASA of tli.e U.S.; Mexico, 50 years after the revolution, Berkeley, disillusioned Saigon students and a host of other non-Sir George Williams University items.

The Georgian has been around long enough to gain its position as the established press of this university. Note the word "established". The Georgian is part of the establishment. In this lofty position, it has removed itself from the muck and slime of humble existence to an overr~ted and out-dated publication of unadulterated crap. While The Georgian worries about the Negroes of Harlem, the Caribbean Society of SGWU languishes because the great white god of university journalism couldn't give a damn. Dow Chemical gets more front page coverage than Science Week got for its annual event. The Fi:ie Arts students in the evening division have been too long without lockers and easels they paid for, because day students ge~ priority. Where's the proletarian saviour demanding equal treatment for the oppres·sed Canadian peasants of Fine Arts?

The Paper could go on ad nauseum about what The Georgian hasn't done for the students. Why don't they do anything] Because The Georgian, like too many institutions that have outlived their usefullness to society, is dying o.f old age. While they tirade against Dow Chemical, manufacturers of napalm used in Vietnam to burn foliage and people, The Georgian accepts immature dropouts "shooting , speed" or otherwise filling themselves up with dangerous and destructive drugs, trying to escape reality. Hey! Georgian! did you check out Firestone and Dupont of Canada, to see what they supplied to the Vietnam atrocity before you accepted their advertising dollars? No! You want money and you'd even take Dow Chemical if they paid enough.

Get off cloud nine. Day by day and issue by issue you are being found out for what you are - nothing. Day by day and issue by issue The Paper will unfold its compendium of facts. We may disturb you with these facts and The Paper may even get a chance to throw in a few cracker barrel homilies that will, no doubt, enrage the dignified Georgian.

We have had to sink to your level of argument to communicate with you. We apologize to anyone offended by that but for nothing else.

THE EDITOR

THE COMMERCE STUDENTS ' ASSOCIATION of Sir George Williams University is staging a week-long series of events, November 18th to 22nd, to mark COMMERCE WEEK '68.

THE PAPER, in a recent interview with Irving Chemostky, Publicity Director of the Commerce Students' Association, obtained the details of what looks like the biggest and best of events ever held by -.:he Commerce Faculty at Sir George.

While it is unfortunate that Dean Brink's opening of COMMERCE WEEK will not be held at a time advanta-

geous to evening students, much of the programme has been organized so as to make it possible for the evening divi­sion to participate to the fullest extent.

For evening Commerce students: if your management is aware of COMMERCE WEEK or perhaps parti­cipating, point out to them your interest and desire to attend the functions, scheduled during the day.

Monday, November 18th:

The week will kick off with an opening address by Dean Gunther Brink at 12:30 P.M. in Birk's Hall followed by a Marketing Talk-In at 6:00 P.M . in the Main Ballroom of the Windsor Hotel. A panel dis· cussion on "Social Ethics and Marketing behaviour -Is There a Gap?" will include special guests from the busi­ness world. The panel, which includes Mme Louise Gareau of the Voice of Canadian Women, Leonard Gelfand of Canadian Nat ion al Rail­ways, Peter Crossgrove of the House of Seagrams, Bob Day of Imperial Tobacco Co. and Professor MacFarland , Professor of Economics at McGill and President of the Quebec Branch of the Con­sumer Association of Cana­da, moderated by Dr. Bruce Mallen, Chairman of the Mar­keting Dept. of SGWU, will participate in an exchange of views and opinions after short speeches concerning their at­titudes on the topic.

Tuesday, November 19th: The main events will in­

clude a morning dance with Dean Hagopian of CFOX held for the beautiful young ladies of the SGWU Business School and our Commerce Students from 11:30 A.M. until mid af temoon.

-Events will be brought to a

head, with a special tour of Molson Breweries' facilities and a few hours of conviviali­ty in their guest lounges. The first 50 purchasers of Seminar tickets for Thursday will be eligible, for complimentary tickets to this event.

Wednesday, November 20th:

A tour to the opening of ac­tivity at the Montreal and Canapian Stock Exchanges in Piace Victoria hosted by Mr. Neopole, President of the exchanges, and Mr. Turcot­te, chairman of the Govem­in g Committee of the Montreal Stock Exchange, will commence at A.M., sharp. A question and ar swer period on stock market ope­rations will follow, with re­freshments.

Thursday, November 21st:

The Annual Business Semi­nar sponsored by the Sir

George Williams University Commerce Students Asso­ciation will be held at the Chateau Champlain Hotel. It will get underway at 12:30 P.M. in the Main Ballroom tickets are 3.50 available on the ·3rd floor of the Norris Bldg. or CSA Offices on the 3rd floor of the Hall Bldg.

The topic of the Seminar

will be "Diversification in In­dustry" and Mr. Ian D. Sin­clllir, President of Canadian Pacific Railways, has agreed to give the address. The Se­minar will take the form of a luncheon followed by the key­note address and a dis­cussion period.

The purpose of the Seminar is to provide an opportunity for the students to obtain a befter understanding of current business attitudes through further discussion of the topic.

Following the address, business executives from seve­ral large firms in the Mon­treal area will meet with students to form workshops to discuss the above topic.

Friday, November 22nd:

The concluding event will be the Commerce Ball in the Main Ballroom of the Chateau Champlain with two lively entertainment groups. Liquor will be served at four bars. The pric~ of tickets will be 3.50 per couple and parking space at 1.00 per car is available.

Further information may be obtained by contacting: Irving D. C hernofsky , Publicity Director, Commerce Students Association, Office: 879-4583 Home: 274-6279.

FACULTY COUNCIL REPRESENTATION The Paper has gained knowledge of a seriou discrepancy

in the form of representation on the four faculty councils. Evening Students Association president Bill O'Mahoney has pointed out that student representation on these councils is comprised only of day students. This situation is, once again, an example of the inability of evening students to gain a voice in the various committees at Sir George Williams University.

Bill O'Mahoney in a recent letter to all E.S.A. faculty reps. advised them to contact their faculty Deans in order to correct this situation.

We strongly urge evening students to take an interest in these events and contact their faculty representatives in the :E.S.A. office, Room H-331, or, failing this, contact the Editor of THE PAPER in Room H-338.

UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION REFORM

The committe.es that would not have representatives on the Senate but exist as standing -and reporting to the Senate compose half the committee structure of the proposed senat e.

The Committee on Under­graduate Teaching would be responsible for investigation and recommendation s concerning teaching standards on undergraduate programs. It will also study and report on new teaching methods with regard to their development and implementation.

Th e C om mittee on Cultural Affair s is assigned a responsibility area that in the main, would include solely the mechanics of the implementation of cultural programs such as accounting procedure, booking of fac ilities, space advertising, selling of ticket , financial structure including a budget to cover "unavoidable deficits" in the event that the self supporting concept does not become a reality. It would also be re s pon s ible for developing a cultural program for t he' benefit of t he entire univer ity and the public.

As pointed out in last week's article, the overlapping of functions is quite possible a internal co-curricular affairs would neces arily include cultural activitie uch as the Georgian Players .

The Committee on Scholarships and Awards would exist to find ways of increasing funds available for students. It has been outlined, as separate from the " Duties and Responsi bilities" of t he committee that the authority to ty<ly, form sub­committees, con ult ana evaluate t he schola rs hip program will reside in the hand of the faculty. It is pointed out however that the final deci ion would be made by the Se na te and the committee . Various ot her dutie for the aca demi c delega te are outlined concerning hi communication with Dean , other faculty members etc. To this end, the committee would receive and approve ·application , for awards by students a well a establi h the condition under which new program would operate. It would erve as a recommendin g body. on all prized and awards under t he jurisdiction of the enate and Board of Governors. This entire function would be to handle undergraduate ituati o n s. Graduate

Scholarship. , etc. would be handled by the Dean of Students Qffice with the exception of.emergency Joans.

The Committee on the University Bookstore shall represent the university body' interests to the Bookstore and have authority and re s pon s ibility for policy concerning all ma tte r s concerning the operation of the Bookstore.

The Committee on Food Services No details have been made available.

The C omm itt e e on Computer Operat ions will set the general policy concerning the operations of the C o m p u t e r C en t e r· a n d computers in the university a well as assign and allocate priorities to major u ers and projects. The committee will also make recommendations as to the budget and expa~sion of the center. Long range plan will also be provided for by the committee.

The Committee on No-. minations for H on or a r y

Degrees will receive and initiate nominations for the granting of honorary degrees. The committee can elect the recipient from among the proposed candidates but may only recommend a candidate who has received seven favorable votes from the member of the committee.

The Co mm ittee o n Communicati on s s hall establish policies in t he area of com muni cat ion s, st ud y communications problem and recommend improve­ment , and reapprai e, the exi ting communications me­thods with t he in tention of with the intenti o n of recommendin g electronic mean of co mmunications . The committee will e tablish "gu idelines" for officer of any commu nication organ or channel . The committee will make recommendation for budget planning and allocation of funds, propose re­organization to increa se efficiency, and encourage joint projects where all members of the university body can work together.

The Committee on Student Discipline and its procedures is currently being tudied by an ad hoc committee of t he Univer · ity Council.

. ext week, the continuation of the st udy will outline the Senate, it st ructure, res­ponsibilities, and authority. Letters to THE PAPER are necessary o that a proper con. en u is established for

E.S.A. COUNCIL MEETING A FARCE Last Wedne day' meeting

of the E.S .A. Executive Council in Room H-331 once ~ again demon st rated the ineffectiveness of that body. The usual atmosphere of futility was felt at once by the several Arts student who sat in on th.e meeting and voiced their dissat isfaction with Art Faculty representative Sam Clay. Mr. Clay has made it quite clear by hi attitude and approach toward hi s con tituents that he i. not intere ted in their problems­past, present, or future. The waste of time required to cover argumeRt on the parameter. of jurisdiction of the neb ulou . E .S. A. co n­stitution , use of Robert' Rule of Order and points of order made t hi. writer almost wish fo r the demise of socalled " democrat ic proces ." Last March over 6000 evening A.rts students voted in to office a representative who has not made himself available to hear their problems and denies their ex istence unle the tu­dent s go to him. THE PAPER's week-by-week pu­blication of letter from irate Fine Art students e. caped his attention and action because " I don,t read THE PAPER.,, The only concrete action taken, in over three hours of sitting wa, a motion passed to have Pres iden t Bill O ,Ma hony reque t Sam Clay , s resignation as Art~ Faculty repre entative.

Qe hope .that by the t ime you read this Sam Clay will have been democratically removed from office and defi­nite action taken toward having (he position filled by a responsible and progres ive individual.

l_c o_M_M_E_N_t___.l-The original prupose of " Percept ion ' was to provide the

Fine Arts student and any other interested individuals with a column devoted to reviews of art and sculpture exhibitions, the many aspects of new media, experimental work, poetry, live theatre, film , a directory of inexpensive supply houses, an open forum , and whatever else you wish this column to be.

There have been, however, a large number of vital issues brought to my attention by various Fine Arts students. Because of t he apparent urgency to clarify these difficulties, some of the original concepts for t his column have been temporarily put aside.

I think it is important to stress that by no means are all Fine Arts students dissat isfied, nor that they all have complaints. Praise for one of the finest , if not THE finest Cana­dian Fine Arts faculty is most certainly due to the untering efforts of individuals too numerous to mention. Since there·has been so much discussion with reference to facilities , this· column - 'Perception' - will try to assist in a comprehensive

dialogue between individuals concerned. I think it i~ important to stress that unless all facilities are presently being utilized to th~ir maximum capacity, our requests for space or other madifi­

cations are not easily justified.

At present the following details have come to my ~ttention: Passes are available from the Department of Fine Arts to permit Fine Arts students access to studios during evening hours until 1:30 A.M. This apparently applies throughout the week from Monday through Saturday. This privilege is not being fully used.

There have been a number of complaints regarding the lack of t!dyness in studios. Graphic Arts students have clean-up detaisl, or are given five minutes prior to the end of their class in which to generally tidy things up. This seems to work out to everyone's satisfaction, and perhaps this could be applied to other areas as well.

ASPECTS Each week I hope to be able to include the name of a manu­

facturer whose samples of new media or catalogues of wide interest can be obtained. If you have any information to pass on to other Fine Arts students, please feel free to utilize this column.

The Diffraction Company, Riderwood, Maryland, U.S .A. 21134 is selling what it calls " Diffraction Art Foil" . It is an aluminum foil plastic coated material which diffracts light into its variouskprismat ickcolours. They will send you samples of this very beautiful foil which can be cut, pasted, tinted, caped, etc. Send your requests to the address above, care of Mr. Remson Wood, and enclose twenty-five cents for poastage. It is certainly worth the quarter, and if you don't think so, I will return your quarter in exchange_ f9r the samples they sent you.

I QUESTIONNAIRE l The questionnaire below is presented to you in order

to assess Fine Arts Department conditions at present. It is our intetnion to utilize the information t hus obtained in a briefregarding space allotment in the year to come.

This brief will be respectfully submitted to Mr. J.B . Petolas, Director of Phusical Planning. Such a brief is not intended to suggest in any way that Mr. Petolas is unaware of the situation, but rather to indicate active student interest in our problem. .

I have taken the liberty of including a question perl taining to the possible formation of a Student Colop which would purchase Fine Arts materials in large quantities, and pass on the savins to its members. I appreciate that there are various interests as to supplies; however, small groups should be able to actualize savings. If you are interested · in such a group, indicate this on the form provided. Should you have any ideas or suggestions, please contact me at the offices of The Paper.

The Elected Representative

The basis of our democratic society, ince its foundation, has been repre entative government. Since the foundation of Canada was laid in 1867, the elected representative ha been a valid political idea. Whether it be on the Federal level or a municipal aldermanic election, we have cherished the concept of an election, a secret ballot, a variety of selections and responsible representation. All too often we have not had the

kind of representation we deserve, either because of our own

apathy or th'e chicanery of the man we elected to office.

In the context of Sir George Williams Univer ity, we may,

upon examination, find one or more cases of this at a level with which we can identify. It is your duty to inquire into your

Fac~lty Representative's efforts on your behalf, attend the

occasional E.S.A. council meeting (they're open meetings) , and

~ee to it that your grievances as well .as your prai es are brought

to the attention of your representative. If he or she does not respond to· your problems, make it known. There are

sympathetic ears at the student level and The Paper will always

hear and examine individual problems; we will see that action is

taken. That's only part of the service you deserve for your twelve

dollars.

POLICE BRUTALITY LETTERS

TO THE

EDITOR TOMORROW'S LEADERS

Sir:

I must protest. Shortly before writing thi note to you I took the e calator to the fourth floor intending to sit down in the lounge area. However, thi was impos ible. The area was in a disgraceful condition and certainly little credit to this University. Papers were strewn over seats, tables, and floor . Copious amounts of what eemed to be coffee had been spilled in ab tract design on various

I

surface ateas.

It seemed to be a deliberate effort rather than just the unusual sloppiness. Whether this distracting mess was' premeditated or only an accident reveals the attitude of tudents towards their own conduct. Does this mean that SGWU will have to start policing the building to catc.h these habitual slobs? And can we really say that we are adult enough to want a voice in our educational system?

To uphold the dignity of our university, I appeal to these laggards, whose only labour apparently is tQ kill time, to simply shape up or shut up.

G. Wrin

Dear Sir: It gives me great pleasure to

see someone doing something constructive: Perhaps now the evening students will realize some return on the student fees t hey have paid.

Your t ruly, Sandra Schattner

Dear Sir:

GARDINER REVISITED

A a potential Psychology tudent, I read with great

interest the report on Professor Gardiner's choice of word m his cla ses. Although I "did not doubt the validity of this report, I felt compelled to hear for myself the "scandalous" verbal ex pre ion of Profe or Gardiner. Alas, I have nothing exciting to report. Apparently, thi "outburst of obscene language" i only occasional and not a regular feature of his classes. I found the entire lecture to be quite tame and above board.

Commitee On The University's

Philosophy And Goals Professor Graham Martin,

secretary of the Committee on the University' Philosophy and Goals, has advised THE PAPER of the Committee's interest in evening students and their views.

The purpose of the Committee is to concern itself with the functions and purposes of the University -what they are and what they should be. The Committee is looking forward to receiving both written and oral representations on any or all aspects of this que tion from groups or individuals in the University.

THE PAPER strongly urges members of the evening student body to contact either the Chairman of the Committee, Professor A. Tarasofsky, in the Dept. of Economics ( phone 879-5824), or Professor Graham Martin, at 879-5925, before December 15th so that appropriate arrangements may be made to receive and discuss these representations.

PRESIDENT'S DESK

Many evening tudent ask a highly justifiable question. Why do we need an evening student government or even an evening students' society!

The question is asked because of the simple fact that there is no apparent reason for an evening student government. How­ever, (1) student can be taught or (2) they can come to learn. The learning process i not simply the soaking up of dull dates, figures and facts on philo phies bone dried by years of astute erudition. Nor is it a process of spending number of years in an effort to carve one' name on the perishable parchment of a sheepskin.

Dynamic education is the process of interaction between the student and his peers. It is not a rehashing of old facts nor rote memorization of new facts. Rather in its dynamism it. creates new facts, develops a new mind and challenges concepts of preformed ideas.

Creative interaction then is one of the most important components in dynamic educational process. The Evening Students' Association attempts, through the formation of clubs and the encouraging of activities, to increase the level of inter­action among students. However, this is only one of our functions - there are many more.

(Ed Note: This is the first in a series of articles by the President of the Evening Students' Association. The President's Desk is to be·a reguiar feature of "The Paper"). . ••

COMPANY PROFILE

In journals directed to t he Canadian medical profe sion a full-page advertisement shows a cowling Dr. Len Mitchell, head of research at Frank W. Horner Limited, slamming down hi first beneath the caption "Our Doctor Mitchell Wants More Money!" A subcaption reads, "We only gave him $829,000 thi year."

The ad i part of a campaign to acquaint Canadian physician with the extent of Horner research. It's not surprising that doctors know o little about thi . It's generally assumed that when a Canadian drug company talks about research, it refers to some remote operation performed by it U.S. parent.

At Horner, however, it 's happening right here in Montreal, and ha been for ome year . Horner wa one of the fir t three ethical drug companie in Canada to et up its own · research facilities and is now one of only nine with uch facilities in Canada. In the pa t decade more than $5,000,000 has been invested in re earch, - 14 cent out of every sales dollar, which is twice a much as the pharmaceutical indu try average.

So far it might appear that Horner doesn 't have too much to how for its investment. The odds that a ·new compound will be

u able are 3000 to one. But Horner ha a batting average better than most. Horner re earchers come up with cores of promising new compounds each year and·to date have published nearly 100 papers about their di coveries which have in turn benefited the scientific community.

T he company was founded in 1912 by Frank Wyeth Horner who began with a staff of two on downtown St. Urbain Street. Mr. Horner did almo t all the work himself - manufacturing, packaging, shipping and selling - and in just four years promoted his mall company into a new building up the street. T he company kept growing and growing, including develop­ment of a successful export busines in Central and South America, South Africa and Egypt, until today it now ranks in the top 10 in total sales in Canada and employs over 300 people.

Frank Horner died in 1939' to be succeeded by his son, Howden Horner, company president today. Basic research, product development, production, quality control, sales, and other marketing functions are integrated in modern laboratories, plant, and offices which cover about four acres on Ferrier Street in the Town of Mount Royal.

In 1962 Carter-Wallace Inc., a U.S. company with sales and production facilities around the world, acquired most of the shares in Horner, thus broadening opportunities for research with free exchange of technical and scientific ideas. Garter growth enabled everal of Homer's top executives to move to the U.S. to expand their scope there.

Homer's line now embrace some 80 pecialties, most of them prescription drugs. The physician is kept informed about them by Homer's 65 medical service representatives, material published in medical magazines, and through more than a million mailing pieces each year. Among Homer's better-known specialties are the leading agent for nausea and motion sickness in Canada, a widely-used antacid-antiflatulent, oral agents to fight diabetes, several popular vitamin products, and an effec­tive drug that acts against acne.

And recently Horner shook up the drug industry and brought welcome news to many Canadians who feel drug prices are too hi"h by introducing its own brand of two of Canada's best- elling tranquilizers - at 25 '"i lower uggested list prices than the competitors.'

November 18 , 1968 - THE PAPER / 7

PATRICK BURNSME ADVISOR IN RESIDENCE EXCLUSIVE .TO THE PAPER

HEIL TRUDEAU? Among sniffing roses, kissing pretty g iris, and attending swinging parties, Mr.

Trudeau w as over heard to say the other da y that he throught the civil draft to be a good idea but in need of more " research".

What is this civil draft? I am sure a lot of Canadians were bewildered to hear about it and in such sketchy terms. From the references that have been made in the papers we gleaned t hat instead of a military draft the Government would wish to draft youngsters of military age into a ort of peace corp for a period of one year, and have the draftees do Samaritan work among Canada's poor.

Exactly what is going on? And what other disgui ed, and at the moment hidden , purpose is this civil draft to serve? We have heard of the "Pioneers" of Russia who were used as an effective informer system during the- repressive Stalin area. We are familiar with the antics of the Maoist "Red Guards" and their cultural revolution terror tactics, and have heard about the Nazi R .A.D. (Reichs Arbeits Dienstor or National Work Service Force) which supplied Hitler with an abundance of para-mili t ary recruits after hostilities started.

If the honourable gentleman is really concerned about Canada's poor and before he goes to the expense of launching this civil draft of "Trudeau Troopers", may we remind him that at the moment Canada already ha a national force of over 100,000 civil servants who aren't doing this country one bit of good, but who nevertheless manage to gobbl~ up about 20', of the Federal budget. I am talking about the Canadian Armed Force .

The role of this armed force is to be that of an inter­national policeman in faraway trouble sports. It has ufficient transport equip­

ment at its disposal to deploy a strategic force anywhere in the world within 48 hours to put down rebellion, civil war, etc. in bloody fighting. Yet it has never once mobilized itself for a massive was against

Canadian poverty by using its large fleet of trucks, bu es, air­planes, etc. to take Canada's slum children out into the country during the summer months for some " fresh air ."

In tead, in Montreal , Toronto, etc ., newspaper appeal to the public for dona­tions to a fresh air fund o that some welfare children (not all) may escape the horror of ghetto filth for a few weeks during summer vacation.

Yet the Canadian Armed Force , with o much Crown land at their di po al , could

very well construct massive " fresh air" camps, truck the children in, and have them s upervised by militar y person nel and trained in sports, handicrafts, etc.

The Army is well equipped for mas feedings, its in­st ructor s are exports in physical fitne s and it has a large taff of Army doctors and nurses on hand who could provide fir t cla s mE!dical attention. Al o, the Army ha a ma sive corp of engineers at its disposal with crew expe­rienced in road building, bridge erection and camp con -

truction. What prevents the Army from using its cons­truction resources, the govern­ment from supplying Crown land and the corps of engineers from erecting habitable "shelter cities" which would give refuge to the many thousands of Canadians now living in hacks , decrepit houses and other o-called building labelled unfit for human habitation? (We refer the honourable gentleman to Mr. Hellyer's fact finding ta k force on Canada's housing problem.) These "shelter cities" could s erve a temporary refuge until such time as this country decides what to do about this national di grace.

And what about the va t fleet of aircraft and ships available to thi Govern­ment? Could the Government not u e ome of the Hercules transport and some of t he Navy' ship to take thousands of underpriviliged old age pen ioners, war veterans, children, etc., to some sunny, government spon ored retreat in the Caribbean to let t he e unfor­tunate people enjoy at least once in their live a bit of the carefree life now available only to the privileged swingers of the "jet set"?

The Canadian Armed Forces are maintained by the Tax payers of th( nation . It i, high t ime that Canadians rcas cs :.he value they t·eceive from thi force in relation to the huge amounts of monie pent on it. If this force srves

no other purpose than to be a huge " model rail road" for play boy staff officers who delight in playing game with " A" force versu "B" force, then it should be di banded and the monie saved be spent on ameliorating the lot of Canada' poor.

That way may have a "just" society. However, we think t hat Mr. Trudeau's "just ociety" will turn out to be ju t

a "ho-hum society".

INSTRUCTIONAL

MEDIA

OFFICE T h e Paper 's October

28th edition published the res ul t of a urvey on administration office hours during the evening. At that time, the In tructional

Media Office wa singled out as an exception by being open " but that of course (they) make ome money. "

Assistant Professor G.A. Moore, Director of Instruc­

tional media has made fu rther details abailable to The Paper on office hours and why they charge for

services. We quote an excerpt from hi letter

which explain their position.

"Thi office exist to provide teaching taff with a media upport ervice in the interest of improved in tructional oppor­

tunities. This ervice is support!!d by the Univer ity budget and for which no charge is made. With the refinements in Govern­ment control of university budget it ha become neces ary to recover the co ts of those services which are not recognized by the Departhent of Education.

Reluctantly this Fall we

terminated the long tradition of providing equiphe t at no-charge for non-teaching purpose m the university. A service charge to cover handling, maintenance and repla­cement of lamps etc. ha been introduced for the e non-teaching uses. A urvey of commercial rental rates and ervice charges in ome other C anadian n1-

-ver ities indicate that our service charge are well below those of other in ti­tutions. The alternative to our mall service charge for non-teaching purpo es i "no service for non-teaching purposes." Their office hour are 8:30 A.M . until 9:30 P.M. every working day for the benefit of the entire Univer ity body.

8/ T';'E PAPER - November 18, 1968

GEORGIAN SNOOPIES The Red Baron paled with envy when 46 noopie parked

their Sopwith Camels outside room 427 last Friday, November 8th, and packed the fir t class of their Department ofTransport­approved ground school course to overflowing.

The mas ive turnout, which included 20 days student , was overwhelming. What had originally ·been planned to be a club with, hopefully, six members, has turned into a positive student demon$tration demanding attention for the great interest in civil aviation.

He welcomed the many flying enthu ia ts (you should have een the beautiful, beautiful girls) and outlined the aims of the

club.

Since, at the present time, it i neither supported by the Evening tudents' A sociation nor the Students' Association, it has no money with which to lease or buy a trainer aircraft . It operates through a commercial operator who has agreed to offer the Snoopies a " rock bottom" price of $14.00 per hour, for the rental of a Cessna 150.

The Georgian Snoopies presently have two qualified instruc­tors who have donated their instruction time to the club, thereby-keeping the cost of either solo or dual flying down to $14.00 per hour. Thi results in a $100 per course savings at least.

Furthermore, those who succes fully complete the private pilots course, while under 33 and medically fit, receive a $100 government rebate. Also, the course is income tax deductable, reducing the cost further still. Keeping these saving in mind, a student wishing to participate should budget about $300 for the course. However in view of the mas ive turn-out, strong repre­sentation will now be made both to the Evening Student' A ociation and the tudents' Association requesting financial assi tance. This will enable the Snoopies to lea e or buy an air­crafr in order to reduce the co t of the course by about another $150 per person.

Eventually, it i hoped, the university will take-over and teach civil aviation a a credit course, making Sir George Williams Univer ity the fir t Canadian University to do o. (And·why not?)

Repre entatives were present from the Champlain Glider Club who have arranged for free tow-plane flying for qualified

noopie in return for free participation in the ground school.

Participation in the ground school is free and open to all intere ted student . Without obligation to join the flying club.

BULLETIN BOARD LET'S TALK

Do you remember the time your whole class got involved in answering someone' question? Idea were con idered, turned around, rejected, and looked at from all angles. Maybe that night one .of your prejudices got a bit shaken up. I like to try out my thoughts and ideas in friendly conversation and it helps me to overcome my apprehension at public peaking.

I have no previous experience but would suggest groups of 20 people and sessions of two hours.

The E.S.A. has offered to assist and help obtain uit­able space for a debating club.

If you'd like to find out more about a debating club and participate in an interesting new venture, fill in the follow­ing form, clip it out, and drop it off at the E.S.A. office, Room H-331.

GEORGIAN HELLENIC ASSOCIATION

Chris Gotsopoulos, vice­president of the Georgian Hellenic ociety, was inter­viewed to find out some information about t hi s intere ting and exciting society. It i an a ociation of Greek students at Sir George William University and High chool. It has in its membership both day and evening students . The criterion of membership i simple. The membership i open to Sir George William tudent of all ocial back­

grounds and all ethnic origins. The purpose and aims of the

as ociation are:

1- To pre erve and foster intere t in Greek culture, and 2-to organize the activitie of both a social and academic nature, in order to provide Greek student and those who are interested in Greek culture with an area of involve­ment. The program of the as ociation are de igned on the basis · of the memoership vote. There i no membership fee and the as ociation finances its activite through an annual dance. In other words; whatever program is of interest to the group at large becomes part of the ociety's program for the year.

The next program will be held on November 30th and will be "The Role of Uncer­tainty and Risk in the

Economic Theory" presented by Profes or A. Anast a-

sopoulos of the Economics Department of SGWU. All tudents are welcome. Follow­

ing thi lecture, to ·be held during the Christmas eason, the annual get - together of the society will take place. The time and location of this parti­cular party will be announced as soon as possible. At SG WU at this time there are about 250 students o( Greek· origin. These students are perhaps one indication of the cosmopo­litan nature of this univer ity. In almost any corridor you can hear spoken the langua­ges of .any number of different ethnic groups. This is one excit­ing part of Sir George, and the Georgian Hellenic Society is one of its exciting associa­tions. Mr. Gotsopoulo may be contacted through the Evening Students Association in Room H-331.
