SLOC: No Free Weekend Up NorthBasic Concepts of
Leadership Formed As 80 Students Attend
This Sem inar panel w as one of the new innovations of SLOC ’64 held last week-end in Ste. Agathe.
SU S Presidency
Stieger Asks For One Week To Decide
By MARSHA FR IED EGloria Stieger is now the P res
ident of the Students’ U ndergraduate Society. The constitution does not provide for a by-election of the incoming president as the result of a resignation.
Miss Stieger has said that she will accept the presidency only with a vote of confidence fiom the Council. She has asked for a week in which to decide wheth e r she w ill accept the position.
As well, the form er Executive Vice-President asked for suggestions as to how she could get a la rger vote of confidence, perhaps from the student body.
Publicity Chairm an, Michael Kay, who does not have a vote on Council, said that if the Georgian comes out in favor of Gloria Stieger in next week’s editorial, then this could be considered a vote of confidence from the student body.
In ternal Vice-President, Arnie Fradkin, commented that the Georgian spoke to the students, not for. and discussion on this proposal ceased.
Fradkin, as Chairm an of the Constitutional Committee, explained that if students had read their constitution before they voted for it in a referendum , they would have noticed that the lat- te r’s Executive Vice-President becomes President upon the lat- te r 's resignation.
Council is now awaiting Miss Steiger’s decision.
If Miss Stieger accepts the presidency, she will occupy that office until new elections are called in March. The Council seem s willing to comply with Miss Steiger’s request for a vote of confidence. H er form er position as Executive Vice-President will
then be filled by an in te rn a l vote among the elected m em bers of Council.
Then, there will be one vacant position, i.e., the m em ber who steps up to the Executive VicePresidency, and a by-election will be called.
Miss Stieger said that the person who wants to assum e the E xecutive Vice-Presidency should have someone in mind who can replace him.
(In a point ruled out of order by Bob Vaison who chaired the meeting, Michael Kay declared Michel D esaulniers, the E xternal Vice-President, is the only person who could so relinquish his position, being the most qualified m em ber for the office of Executive Vice-President.)
If Miss Stieger refuses the presidency, she will probably retain her form er position as Executive Vice-President.
A by-election for the presidency will then be called to elect a new leader of the SUS.
Bursaries BounceThe offices of Magnus Flynn,
Assistant Dean of Students, and Michael Desaulniers, SUS E xternal Vice-President, have been flooded with surprised queries.
Students who were expecting their bursaries to be renewed have found that either they were cut substantially or were not forthcoming this year.
The first list, those applications which were sent in August, a re now in Dean Flynn’s office.. .The sam e decrease in the num ber and value of bursaries prevails a t McGill and Loyola. The University of M ontreal will be contacted by Mike Desaulniers and if the sam e situation is evident there, and if the U of M decides to send a delegation to Quebec as they usually do, Sir George will ask to be invited.W W V W W V W V W W W W V W W W l

SLOC FOLLOW UP
During the sem inar group discussions, the idea of a followup to SLOC was brought forth.
The general consensus was that the delegates should m eet again in M ontreal, perhaps at regular intervals, to resolve the problems of student leadership.
The SLOC comm ittee, it was felt, could become a standing year round organization bringing both day and evening students together.

“I would make divorce easier to get than it is now in this province,” Professor Harold H. Potter, widely- travelled and popular Chairman of the Department of Sociology at SGWU, told the Georgian during an interview this week.
“I think that the hest thing we can do is to emulate Swedish educators who have arranged for the provision discussion of the requirements of a good family life,” said of early instruction in sexual matters and for early F¥of. Potter.
Prof. P o tte r is kep t extrem ely busy a t SGWU giving 10 hours of lec tu res in sociology w eekly, in both day and evening divisions. In previous years, h e ’s had up to 14 hours of lec tu res weekly, giving him little tim e to devote to h is favo rite past- tim es.

Pearson, Lesage, ToBe Invited To SGWU
By BARRY ENTOUS
Plans for the Liberal Club of SGWU this year include invitations to both P rim e M inister Pearson and P rem ier Lesage to address the student body.
Another annual McGill — Sir George trip to Ottawa is slated in the near future.
M inister of Revenue E r i c K ierans will be guest speaker for the club on Thursday, at a giant open meeting in Birks Hall.
Recent appointments to the club a re : G ary Reinblatt, acting publicity chairm an ; and B r i a n Moorehouse, planner to the coming new Model Parliam ent.
The Liberal Club can boast of having the largest delegation to Quebec last weekend. Seven official voters of the eighteen m em bers attended the Quebec Liberal Federation Convention.
Among the m any resolutions
which w ere put forth w ere abolishment of the Council, establishment of a one-house system including pensions to the m em bers of the Upper House.
Discrimination is all too evident in the legislative body. To counteract this, a resolution was introduced towards an anti-discrim ination policy in elections to both houses.
Again this year, the Liberal Club stressed the im portance of com pulsary belts in automobiles. Night students might be pleased to learn that the club introduced a separate evening students bursary foundation.
Mike K a y , Vice - President, chaired last Tuesdays’ executive meeting. President Mike Miller was attending a m eet of the Quebec Students’ Liberal Federation, where he is Vice-President.

The Liberal Club can boast of having the largest delegation to Quebec last weekend. Seven offi• cial voters of the eighteen members attended the Quebec Liberal Federation Convention.
Among the many resolutions
which were put forth were abolishment of the Council, establish· ment of a one-house system including pensions to the members of the Upper House.
Discrimination is all too evident in the legislative body. To counteract this, a resolution was introduced towards an anti-discrimination policy in elections to both houses.
Again this year, the Liberal Club stressed the importance of compulsary belts in automobiles. Night students might be pleased to learn that the club introduced a separate evening students bursary foundation.
Mike K a y, Vice• President, chaired last Tuesdays' executive meeting. President Mike Miller was attending a meet of the Que• bee Students' Liberal Federation, where he is Vice-President.

You may have noticed that. in recent weeks, this esteemed pillar of wisdom has been anything but. As a matter of fact it's been along the lines of that last sentence.
The point that I'm desperately trying to convey is the all-to-obvious fact that this column is in dire need of a face-lifting (Please ... no cracks about the picture.)
For the past four weeks. these lines have been characterized by vel1ement slashes at anything and everything. Today you will observe a new format.
There will be none of that sensationalized crusading. Guys like Joseph Alsop and Drew Pearson are considered high-class. Why? Because they observe, analyze evaluate. They don't go in foT the earthy. low-brow beefs.
Therefore .. in our quest for status. class and respectability, the remainder of this column will be transformed into a socially acceptable forum of analysis.
The following topic gleaned from the depths of obscurity. has been selected for its extreme analyzability
Student Politics A brief analysis of this
very interesting game brings some fascinating facts to light. Many different versions of the game are played throughout the country but our methotl is by far the most stimulating a.nd challenging.
The object of the contest is to get enough votes sometime around A p r i I so that you will be able to resign in September o•r October. You see, this way you
can say you won and you don't have to bother about silly thinks like election promises and representation.
So far, about half the council has won and the other half has to pa.y the penalty by attending every meeting so there will be a quorum present. This is important because if there is no quorum there will be no business and there will be nothing for the Georgian to complain about and the1·e will be nothing for the students to be apathetic a.bo~
And if the students have nothing to be apathetic about then they'll probably get excited about something and start burning effigies and inciting riots. Therefore. we are faced with the necessity of by-elections to insure a constant quorum. That way we'll keep the peace even if we don't get our caution money ba.ck.
A further analysis shows that the game is considerably enhanced by the presence of some very colorful personalities. Take the ex-president for example.
Bo·b Vaison resigned last week, explaining his reasons as "primarily personal." Under further interrogation he admitted that these personal. reasons werc "medical'" in nature. The facts are there. We hate to say it. but logical analysis and evaluation leave no alternative but to conclude that Vaison is pregnant.
He is succeeded by SGWU's answer to Ma.dame "Nhu -Glaria Steiger. It is our sincere hope that the same fate does not befall her as befell Vaison.

The SUS BudgetThe SUS Council has passed the
1963-64 budget of the Society and students might well pause for a moment and ask if they are getting full value for their fifteen dollar annual fee.
It is becoming increasingly evident that a dangerous situation has been evolving over the years whereby a greater proportion of Society revenues are being swallowed up by student leaders instead of being funnelled into the various organizations and clubs, most of which are in dire need of money in order to expand the scope of their program. A case in point is the Garnet and Gold Revue which was shelved because of a “lack of funds.” Yet administrative expenses have skyrocketed to $8,235 and sizeable allocations have been made towards Conference attendance ($1,075), the University Model United Nations ($550), a Presidential expense account of $350, a Council expense account, a room .for the President in the “Y”, etc. The point, then, is that the student body as
a whole, whose money it is, is not reaping a great enough proportion of the benefits. The Seminar, the Winter Carnival, and Freshman Week, just to name but a few of the organizations which serve the entire University community and in which all students can actively participate, are being shortchanged in the interests of Big Government.
Once again, priority is an important word. The Society must delineate what can be construed as necessity and what can be considered as luxury. If, ostensibly, the Society cannot maintain a Garnet and Gold Revue; if, ostensibly, there is not enough money to expand the operations of the clubs and organizations, then how can one justify the expenditures incurred in hiring an administrator and a secretary ?
What we would suggest is that more attention be paid to satisfying the demands of the entire student body during the period when the budget is being drafted.
SLOC Was SuccessfulThe Student Leader Orientation Con
ference that was held at the Manor House in the Laurentian this past weekend was possibly the most successful event conducted by the student governments. And much of the acclaim must fall on the deserving shoulders of Chairman Vernon Chang, whose efforts made what had generally been an uninspiring student activity into a lively, informative, and worthwhile Conference.
The SLOC Committee this year instituted a number of important innovations. Most noteworthy was the emphasis that was placed upon compact group seminars and study groups. The usual round of speeches, by student and faculty personages did not achieve the real aims and practical benefits of the Conference,
as did the stimulating group meetings.In addition to Chairman Chang, ac
colades must also go to Knute Jensen, Steve Fisher, Terry Forth, and the other members of the SLOC Committee, as well as to Internal Vice-President Arnie Fradkin, the Council member responsible for the execution of the program.
As a result, the Clubs Commission, under Vern Sparks, is presently contemplating a Club Leaders Conference, modelled along the lines of, though not as expensive as, its broader counterpart. This miniature SLOC, conducted in the University, cannot help but improve the programming operations of the approximate 35-40 clubs. It is a concrete proposal that should be translated from theory into practice.
"En Ville"It advocates higher morals instead of
lower. It suggests constructive avenues for mankind instead of merely criticizing. It encourages the many ethnic groups in Canada to work together
harmoniously for the common good. It stimulates all Canadians to think Big. It is concerned with people.
And “it” is good. People whose integrity, honesty, and devotion to the best interests of Montreal, Canada, and the world are made self-evident in the words they write. Name of the paper? En Ville.
We are proud to note that at least four graduates from this University are employed in responsible positions on that publication.
En Ville, while claiming to be a businessman’s paper, is actually of far greater influence than the circumference of Place Ville Marie. Its healthy criticisms (of such people as Pierre Berton, Lester
Why do only staff members have keys to the elevator?
Lettersto tn e
Editor
Pearson, down-town businessmen, and Montreal universities) are a refreshing change from the usual diatribes and ‘woe-is-us’ editorials we read in other papers.
Not only does En Ville support straight dealing, honesty, and truthfulness in the business community, but it also encourages youth to follow the berst that men know. Is it superfluous to say that this is in marked contrast to the depraved ideology usually provided in the form of various so-called sophi- stocated films, adult plays and magazines, and sex-oriented advertising ?
We admire the Editor and his associates for the example they are presenting to their many readers, and how can we despair of ourselves when we read in Mike Gutwillig’s own columns that he, too, was a ‘zoot-suit’ youth !

doubtful status as' a partial student, I might be allowed the courtesy of your columns to comm ent very briefly on a le tte r in your October 16 issue, by a Mr. H ardy Staub.
My ire was aroused not so much by the content of the letter although Mr. Staub’s intem perance hardly helps his case, but by th e atrocities he p erp e tra ted on the English language. I quote “ Now I would like to ask you why you do not show a bit more leadership abilities than you do. In my three years a t Sir George I have not seen a worse edition of the Georgians you seem to put out.” If this is what is to be expected after three years of university training it raises a number of uncom fortable questions not only for Mr. Staub, but for the university. If the above quotation was the sum total of the linguistic indiscretions of its author, one m ay be tem pted to put it down to a printing error, or some equally innocent cause. But no, the whole thing rem inds one of the efforts of a 10 year old child and a not too bright 10 year old a t that.
The budding young genius who conceived this lite rary gem, went to some length in castigating the editorial staff for their failure to uphold the prestige of the Georgian and the Student Body. May one be allowed to suggest that Mr. Staub if he is as concerned as he alleges about the prestige of the Student Body, resign all of his offices and devote his energies to some hard work and study ra ther than compromising not only him self but also his university by sending alm ost illiterate letters to the editor.

D ear Sir,I feel that the people on the
Administration who arranged for the installation of the coffee m achine should be congratulated. The particu lar location of the machine m ust be of great advantage to those students who come to classes via the Stanley Tavern. At last students have a chance to sober up before lectures. No m ore will professors have to face the hot and beery breath of students, for if any student fails to sober up on that dishwater he is a unique individual.

D ear Sir,I would like to take th is op
portun ity tc draw a slight m atte r to your a tten tion . Every day during lunch, one can see droves of aim less souls roam ing around the halls. They e ith e r w ander around St. C atherine S tree t bothering the shopkeepers or eat in th e Common Room and sit and sit (they m ust do tha t all day) and talk.
I would like to propose an activity which, if approved by the SUS, ju s t m ight alleviate th is situation . Can we not hold a Social D ancing session? Can we not convert the Common Common Room to a Rec Hall for two days a week? Is th is not a possibility?
R eferring to Roma M ine’s le tte r to the EditoT last week, th is m ight alleviate the situation in th e L ibrary . T his would also keep the hails c lea r and th e stu dents out of mischief. As well, s tudents w ould have the chance to m eet th e ir friends and those of the opposite sex and they would be able tq ta lk and laugh as loud as they please. Do consider it.

Th~~ SUS The SUS Council has passed the
1963-64 budget of the Society and students might well pause for a moment and ask if they are getting full value for their fifteen dollar annual fee.
It is becoming increasingly evident that a dangerous situation has been evolving over the years whereby a greater proportion of Society revenues are being swallowed up by student leaders instead of being funnelled into the various organizations and clubs, most of which are in dire need of money in order to expand the scope of their program. A case in point is the Garnet and Gold Revue which was shelved because of a "lack of funds." Yet administrative expenses have skyrocketed to $8,235 and sizeable allocations have been made towards Conference attendance ($1,075), the University Model United Nations ($550), a Presidential expense account of $350, a Council expense account, a room .for the President in the "Y", etc. The point, then, is that the student body as
SLOC Was The Student Leader Orientation Con
ference that was held at the Manor House in the Laurentian this past weekend was possibly the most successful event conducted by the student governments. And much of the acclaim must fall on the deserving shoulders of Chairman Vernon Chang, whose efforts made what had generally been an uninspiring student activity into a lively, informative, and worthwhile Conference.
The SLOC Committee this year instituted a number of important innovations. Most noteworthy was the emphasis that was placed upon compact group seminars and study groups. The usual round of speeches, by student and faculty personages did not achieve the real aims and practical benefits of the Conference,
Budget a whole, whose money it is, is not reaping a great enough proportion of the benefits. The Seminar, the Winter Carnival, and Freshman Week, just to name but a few of the organizations which serve the entire University community and in which all students can actively participate, are being shortchanged in the interests of Big Government.
Once again, priority is an important word. The Society must delineate what can be construed as necessity and what can be considered as luxury. If, ostensibly, the Society cannot maintain a Garnet and Gold Revue; if, ostensibly, there is not enough money to expand the operations of the clubs and organizations, then how can one justify the expenditures incurred in hiring an administrator and a secretary ?
What we would suggest is that more attention be paid to satisfying the demands of the entire student body during the period when the budget is being drafted.
Successful as did the stimulating group meetings.
In addition to Chairman Chang, accolades must also go to Knute Jensen, Steve Fisher, Terry Forth, and the other members of the SLOC Committee, as well as to Internal Vice-President Arnie Fradkin, the Council member responsible for the execution of the program.
As a result, the Clubs Commission, under Vern Sparks, is presently contemplating a Club Leaders Conference, modelled along the lines of, though not as expensive as, its broader counterpart. This miniature SLOC, conducted in the University, cannot help but improve the programming operations of the approximate 35-40 clubs. It is a concrete proposal that should be translated from theory into practice.
"En Ville" It advocates higher morals instead of
lower. It suggests constructive avenues for mankind instead of merely criticizing. It encourages the many ethnic groups in Canada to work together
harmoniously for the common good. It stimulates all Canadians to think Big. It is concerned with people.
And "it" is good. People whose integrity, honesty, and devotion to the best interests of Montreal, Canada, and the world are made self-evident in the words they write. Name of the paper? En Ville.
We are proud to note that at least four graduates from this University are employed in responsible positions on that publication.
En Ville, while claiming to be a businessman's paper, is actually of far greater influence than the circumference of Place Ville Marie. Its healthy criticisms (of such people as Pierre Berton, Lestt11
Pearson, down-town businessmen, and Montreal universities) are a refreshing change from the usual diatribes and 'woe-is-us' editorials we read in other papers.
Not only does En Ville support straight dealing, honesty, and truthfulness in the business community, but it also encourages youth to follow the be"st that men know. Is it superfluous to say that this is in marked contrast to the depraved ideology usually provided in the form of various so-called sophistocated films, adult plays and magazines, and sex-oriented advertising ?
We admire the Editor and his associates for the example they are presenting to their many readers, and how can we despair of ourselves when we read in Mike Gutwillig's own columns that he, too, was a 'zoot-suit' youth !

R O Y A L B A N K
We bend an ear to undergraduate money problems of all kinds, from setting up a savings account, to budgeting, to discussing your financial future. Any time we can be of help . . .
D ear Mr. K rassuer:I like your magazine. Some
times I even pay for it instead of borrowing it from my friends. I find The Realist, for the most part, very stimulating.
You’re right — it's the least part I ’m writing to you about. Take your last issue, no. 43 which has just come out. On pg. 13 you have a news item ticketed “ Rome. June 30". The article notes instructions to Catholic teachers to protect the fledgling Catfiolic students from s u c h dangers as presented by the works of F ather P ierre Teitlard. the paleontologist and Theologian. (The whole nam e, should you want to order any of his books Mr. K rassuer. is P ierre Teillard de Chardin.)
I presume you reprinted this news article because you regret as much as I do the attitude Rome has shown toward Teillard de Chardin. I consider him one of the most interesting and inspirational of Catholic w riters in the last few centuries.
The thing that confuses me is the cartoon of a rotund, beetle- browed and hairy human figure nailed to a cross which you have printed above the article. Perhaps you wanted to tell us that the Church is crucifying Peking m an? Perhaps the beetlebrowed individual on the cross is you, M r K rassener? If this last is the case I'm a little surprised that you take the work of even so exem plary a Christian as Teillard de Chardin so personally. What are you trying to tell us. Mr. K rassner? Can it be that you are just trying to score a cheap point off the church?
1 don’t let your fear of respect- I ability rob me of your magazine.
The interview by Terry Southern you printed in no. 43, I found both dull and pointless. • Why waste a fine w riter like Southern and space in your magazine on such poor stuff? You have given us a bad article Mr. K rassner and in doing so you have missed the opportunity of giving us a good one. T hat’s my idea of a genuine sin.
Your impolite interviews ram ble a little but I am enjoying them thoroughly. Thanks for the useful insights. Thanks also for drawing my attention to the Black Cat paperback edition of Cuba: Tragedy in our Hemisphere.
Thanks in retrospect for P ortra it of a Stereotype in number 42. I think it’s the best you’ve given us yet. Is It Kosher To Hate G erm ans was also “much appreciated.
Best wishes to George Von Hilsheimer. W hatever his diction. I’m for him.
Respectfully,T. W. Goodenough
If one w ere to seek an in dividual who' best rep resen ted the sp irit of the N egro revolt p resen tly taking place in the U.S. one need look no fu r th e r than Dick G regory. A lthough he has been classified by som e to be a m em ber of the new school “sick ctymics.” Dick G regory’s b rand of hum our has fa r g rea te r dim ensions than th a t of any of his fellow comics. Beneath liis sharp and often caustic w itticism s. one easily senses the m otivating force which derives him to quips like:
“ If G overnor W allace runs for President of th e U.S. in the next election his slogan will be ‘a w hite sheet in every closet’.”
Dick G regory is basicalh a freedom figh ter in show m an’s clothes His keen know ledge of th e political and sociological c lim ate in the U.S.. has enabled him to com m ent both on and of the stage both sarcastically and seriously, w ith a frankness and d irectness which most showm an w'ould shy aw'ay from . His sense of purpose in w hat he is doing has led him to partic ipate in num erous re s tau ran t sit-ins. the M arch on W ashington, and m eetings w ith various Negro and W hite leaders of th e U nited S tates, in an a ttem pt to effect the cries and pro testa tions of the coloured people.
G regory is p resen tly appearing at New’ Y ork’s fashionable night club. Basin S tree t East. In an interview' w ith him afte r his perform ance I sensed t h e 1 dichotom y in his on and off stage personality . A lthough his ends in both cases a re basically the sam e, he seem s to take on a m ore serious approach to W orld problem s when he is out of the focus of the audiences attention . W hen asked if he thought th e re w ere such a th ing as a Negro
tfw n g (m jtk y w z ,
vote and if so who he thought would receive th is vote in the next P residen tia l e lection Mr. G regory stated . “T here is u n doubtedly a Negro vote in the U.S.. to believe otherw ise would be unrealistic ." This N egro vote will in all likelihood re tu rn K ennedy to office, not because he has done so much for the coloured cause, but ra th e r because he is the lesser of two evils.” He continued. “Why vote for som eone you know will persecute you. i.e.. B arry G oldw ater? In K ennedy there is at least some hope W'e will obtain fu r th e r rights and freedom s.
He was fu r th e r questioned as to w hether he believed Bobby K ennedy was doing his utm ost as Attorne> G eneral. He answ ered “Yes." I believe Bobby has done all he could under the existing fram ew ork of our legal system. W hat is needed now is for his b ro th e r Jack to take a m ore positive stand on his civil righ ts bill and to put his vague prom ises into action. He should stop playing politics.”
R egarding th e recen t U.S. and C anadian w heat sales to Russia Mr. G regory com m ented: .
“It seem s th a t we a re losing all of our dem ocratic and m oral principles. We are being governed by our greedy wants and are not taking into consideration the potential ill effects of th is sale. By selling w heat to Russia we are in effect pu tting o u t boys fighting in South Vietnam, in th e ir graves. Do you th ink K hruschev is going to keep his prom ise and trans-sh ip this w'heat to o ther areas of Comm unist dom ination? We are in effect feeding the m ouths of our adverseries so th a t they can have the streng th to kill us.” He w ent on. “K hruschev would be b e tte r off if he stopped crying. ‘We w'ill bury you.’ and s ta rted burying some w heat seeds in his own country." .
Dick G regory, as you can see, is no ordinary com edian, what he has to say is far from sick humor. U nfortunately m any of his objects of a tten tion are.

vote and if so who he thought would receive this vote in the next Presidential election Mr. Gregory stated. "There is undoubtedly a Negro vote in the U.S., to believe otherwise would be unrealistic." This Negro vote will in all likelihood return Kenn-edy to office. not because he has done so much for the coloured cause. but rather because he is the lesser of two evils." He continued. "Why vote for someone you know will persecute you. i.e .. Barry Goldwater? In Kennedy there is at least some hope we will obtain further rights and freedoms.
He was further questioned as to whether he believed Bobby Kennedy was doing his utmost as Attorne) General. He answered '·Yes." I believe Bobby has done all he could under the existing framework of our legal system. What is needed now is for his brother Jack to take a more positive stand on his civil rights bill and to put his vague
1 promises into action. He should stop playing politics."
Regarding the recent U.S. and Canadian wheat sales to Russia Mr. Gregory commented ,
"It seems that we are losing all of our democratic and moral principles. We are being governed by our greedy wants anci are not t-aking into consideratiott the potential ill effects of thi11 sale. By selling wheat to Rw,sia we are· in effect putting oui; boys fighting in South Vietnam, in their graves. Do you think Khruschev is going to keel) his promise and trans-ship this wheat to other areas o/f Communist domination? We are iit effect feeding the mouths of our. adversel'ies so that they can have the strength to kill us." He went on. ''Khruschev would be better off if he stopped crying. 'W·e will bury you.' am! started burying same \\ heat seeds in his 9Wll
country.'' Dick Gregory. as you can see,
is no ordinary comedian. what he has to say is far from sick humor. Unfortunately many of his objects of attention are.

Dans le domaine de l’industrie lourde, la F rance a fait des pas de geants depuis quelques annees; vous pourrez vous en rendre compte en visitant la partie reservee a la mecanique ou vous admire- rez les realisations frangaises. Le kiosque des vins est l ’un des plus achalande, et pour cause. Les vignobles frangaises reconnues dans le monde entier nous offrent une variete de vins de p rem iere qualite. Une autre industrie frangaise qui connait un essor prodigieux autant en F rance qui autre frontieres: l'industrie de l’automobile. M algre sa petite carrosserie, l’auto frangaise, aux lignes pures, allie l’elegance au confort. Toujours dans le domaine industriel, la Societe Sud Aviation nous devoile quelques projets d’avions. Ce qui pique le plus la curiosite du visiteur dans le quadrilatere reserve a l ’aviation, c’est la m aquette du Concorde; le Concorde sera le prem ier avec visonique de transport civil a sillonner le ciel et cela a partir de 1965.

goodbye columbusPhilip Roth, a brilliant new talent has appeared on the literary
scene with an im pact and has been widely acclaimed.Roth, a psychological realist in whose writings and character
development can be seen a reflection of Henry Jam es, has given ws a volume that reflects his perception and sensitivity. His Jewish origin and heritage is manifested in what seem s to be a subtle reaction to its principles and what can be classified as gentile cynicism.
“ Goodbye, Columbus” the main story in this selection is a startling tale about two young people of Jewish origin who a re separated by a rigid class system. They think they a re in love.Brenda Patim kin, a pam pered daughter of a wealthy m anufacturer represents the false middle class Jewish fem ale darting from country club to tennis court to beauty salon. -
Neil Klugman on the other hand has been spawned in a lower social stra ta and in m any ways reflects what Roth is reacting to— Hadassah m eetings and F riday night dinners. Neil is a young college boy with no future and a lot to forget and with Brenda he alm ost succeeds in doing so. Their affair culm inates in typically Rothian fashion—startling and inspiring.
The other five selections in the volume are all w ritten in much the sam e vein as' the first. They a re a peculiar combination of Roth’s personal philosophy coupled with a style that expresses this belief in no uncertain term s.

answer from limboIf Brian Moore can be called a Can
adian novelist — he still has his Canadian citizenship, though he left Montrea l for the U.S. four years ago — he seem s to m e to be the best Canada has.
A m ore interesting question for critical beagles of the future will be the effect M ontreal has had on his novels. Moore cam e here from his native Ireland in 1952 and produced a mountainous volume of prose in seven years here. He worked as a city re porter for The G azette and showed a touch for w arm hum an-interest yarns, as they’re known in the trade. He tu rned out several pulpy pot-boilers of novels, telling of lurid m urders on the mountain and dark intrigue in hospital corridors. He also wrote his first two serious novels, THE LONELY PASSION of MISS JUDITH HEARNE and THE FEAST OF LUPERCAL, classics of despair and self-affacement, set in Ireland.
The year after, in New York, Moore bronght out THE LUCK OF GINGER COFFEY, a generous dollop of comedy and satire, aim ed obliquely a t M ontreal and a none-too-fictional version of The la test book, AN ANSWER FROM LIMBO.
Now, however, Moore’s past has caught up with his present and his la test book, An Answer from Limbo, describes-the author’s own position, that e i an Irish w riter in New York. T9te
book cam e out last winter but is re viewed here partly because I couldn’t get hold of a copy until recently and partly because I feel reviews I read at the tim e were too critical.
The book is one you don’t want to put down until you’re finished. Moore’s other three books were the sam e and books like this a re rare .
But criticism will be critical, so out with the pick. The book tells of a p arttim e w riter who decies to m ake a thrust for success by sending his wife out to work, bringing his old widowed mother over from Ireland to mind his two children and working round-the- clock on a novel in a Greenwich "Village garret. The results a re predictable: the w riter arrives at the verge of success; his wife, a pseudo-sophisticated neurotic bitch if ever Edw ard Albee saw one, has a sordid affair with an anthropoid Italian in her office and the m other is literally shocked to death (a heart attack) by the valueless life in the “ limbo” of the title — the im personal, sophisticated city.
At worst, the book is highly competent. At best, it is a frightening
' description of people’s inability to comm unicate except a t a perfunctory level. Like the m ajor characters of his other three books, an individual reaching for self-understanding and fulfillment is also moving away from other people.

The first two presentations of the Georgian Film Society were of an extremely varied nature. The first showing was Orson Welle’s Citizen Kane, the second, Frederich Murnau’s Nosferatu.
Millions of words have been w ritten about Kane, considered by most among the best films ever made. Charles F oster Kane, the protagonist of the movie, is alm ost an exact replica of William Randolph H earst, the fabulously rich em peror of American Yellow Journalism . H earst, the most powerfull U.S. press lord of the twentieth century has left a ra th e r dubious legacy of new spapers like New York's Daily News, that belong to the H earst Chain.
Kane rocked the iorties sociologically and artistically , because of its political daring and cinem atic experimentation. In what was amazingly enough, his lirst film, Welles had the courage to publicly analyze one of the men of the era. Using H earst as a model, he analyze one of the strongest men of the era. Using H earst as a model, he created an incisive disection of the nature of power itself, including its psychological, sociological and political m anifestations.
To present his portrait of power, Welles let go completely and utilizing every im aginable technique — satire , complex im agery and symbolism and highly detailed characterization, he produced one of the most lucid, freely flowing films in the history of the cinem a. His bold experim ents with light, wide angles, rhythm and movement a re today to the aspiring director what Joyce's Ulysses has been to novelists.
Much has been said about Welle's artistic disintegration since Kane and his next effort, The Magnificent Ambersons but Kane alone, an alternately lunny. horrifying and tender film is enough to establish Welles as an all-time great.
Nosferatu, m ade by Fredrich Murnau in 1922, is part of the m ainstream of the German cinema that thrived in the late 1900’s and early twenties. The Cabinet Of Caligari, possibly the most
One of the least known forms of the folksong is the “B arbershop,” wh'cb originated at the turn of the century. While a man was getting a shave and a haircut, he would be regaled with songs and jokes.
Barbershop quartette singing gradually died out but not completely. It has been revived by the S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A. or the Society for the Preservation and Encouragem ent of Barbershop Q uartette Singing in America. On Friday the Montreal chapter, of this society presented an eighteen part program for the public at the St, Jam es United Church. Mr. Harold F razer acted as m oderator and conductor for the forty male voices. The whole program had an aura of homely hum or as jokes were told and we enjoyed a little stroll back to the good old days of the horses and buggy.
The chorus was arranged according to four part harmony. The melody was carried by the leads or the second tenors. This is where the barbershop quartette differs from other types. The first tenors usually carry the standard quartette melody, but here they carry
important film of this era has exerted a tremendous influence on the movie-making of the past forty years. Murnau’s The Last Laugh is also considered an epoch-making film.
Nosferatu is not a m ajor film. It is interesting mainly from an historical point of view, being the first horror movie ever made. Nosferatu is another word for vam pire and the movie, based on B rahm Stoker's novel, gives the first cinem atic glimpse of Count D racula and his habitat-Transylvania. Because we have been exposed a t this la te date, to everything from Brides of Dracula to Dracula and the Migraine Sufferers, much of Nosferatu seems naive, often ludicrous. D racula gazes hysterically at a picture of a young dam sel, and gasps: “My what a lovely th roat.” The titles, of course, m ake things like this m ore laughable.
The film is not particularly startling from a technical point of view. The cutting is typical of the silent era — iris in, iris out and most shots a re quite conventional. However, Murnau often builds up iwhat he was trying for — a moodily frightening gothic flavor, a contrasting picture of good and evil. He does use a few innovations — one effective reverse negative shot and cutting between sequences that a re parallels.
The Film Society’s first two program s were without any doubt well chosen, both having a g reat deal of artistic and historical interest. It is indeed shocking that these two films, costing nothing at the sam e tim e the McGill F ilm Society has been charging $2.50 for a series of ten films (and tickets a re impossible to get), were for each of their ten-film series (and tickets a re impossible to get), were attended by some sixty people. It could be argued the society has not publicized itself sufficiently and this is why one of the great artistic efforts of this century — Citizen Kane — went ignored.
We’ll see.—Maurie Alioff.
the harm ony above the melody. The bass carried the foundation while the baritone filled in the fourth note of the four p art harmony. Mr. F razer exquisitely dem onstrated this using parts of different nursery songs with each group of voices to pointedly show the respective group’s vocal function. Suddenly they all joined the fragmented exerpts together in one very amusing song. For variety in the program he also had what he called a “pickup quarte tte ,” where any four singers get together and harmonize on m any old time favorites. The next delightful novelty the audience was treated to was a “Bang up Q uartette,” where four peoople harmonize and any other persons wishing to join in must replace one in the quartette. The effect of these antics brought the house down with applause. Only an excellent chorus could have carried off something such as this. The standing ovation of the audience given to their magnificent ability to deviate from an accustomed form of presenting a program attests to their singing prowess. I think that the next tim e they perform in M ontreal, all folkmusic lovers should make it a must to see them. '

m ore hootenannies everywhere and in every form. This old- country folk form of entertainment has recently taken over the concert stages in the U.S. and in Canada and is rapidly adopting to movies, T.V. shows, radio program s and of course the big package touring hoots which are appearing in big cities all across North America. Sadly enough, any resem blance between some of these hoots and the original concept -of folks getting together to exchange songs, sing along, and in general enjoy themselves
musicin a participating way has been lost with the comm ercial atm osphere which has developed.
However much can be achieved and enjoyed by this new entertainm ent form if the perform ers will m aintain as much of theauthenticity of their songs and perhaps more im portant the style in w'hich they present this m aterial. The popularity of folk music has been steadily increasing in Canada; Universities all across the country are engaging folk singers and groups as never before, mostly in the form of hootennanies.
The live "hoots” which CFCF has sponsored plus their daily hootenanny radio program have done a g reat deal in popularizing this form of music. The movie, Hootenanny Hoot, is reaching the broad m ass of theatregoers, though I don’t consider some of this m aterial to be honest folk music. The C.B.C.’s T.V. show Youth Special has presented some really fine folk artists and music. There are m any artists and prom oters who a re capitalizing on the comm ercial aspect and have deleted much of the true expresion originally written
into the old songs which have survived for so many years.
There a re still m any who are consistently interpreting the songs in their original intents like Toronto’s Bonnie Dobson, America 's Judy Collins, M ontreal’s Shirly Singer, the Rev. Gary Davis, and groups like the Mountain City Three, the Clancy Bros.,

university dram aLast week Radio McGill pro
duced The Dialogue by Norman B. Levine a third-year student of philosophy.
The production itself was very poor with bad timing and acting which was not much better. The play was almost completely m isinterpreted by the director. John Francis. Regardless of this, a good deal of the philosophical content came through. The play can be described as the p a rticles of a m an’s mind in d ram atic conflict, resolving the problem of whether a m an can exist alone. The Dialogue was tightly written and the dram a well constructed.
The play was another encouraging note in the growth of d iam a in our universities. Last year, Jack Cunningham of S.G.W.U w rote W him idea a one- ac t avant-garde play which was done by the Georgian Players. Whimidea was perfo rm ed in To
ronto at the Canadian Inter-Var- S'ty D ram a League F estival and Sir George placed in a runner-up position with one aw ard and five honorable mentions.
This year Robert S. Sherwood, a form er S.G.W.U. student, presented several works to the playw right’s corner in Montreal. Both plays were well received.
D ram a groups in all M ontreal universities a re planning an active year. The McGill group, under the direction of Craig Bar- rish. a re planning to change em phasis to more comm ercial m aterial. Here in Sir George, the Georgian P layers a re planning an evening of student-directed
one-act plays to be produced in November. The highlight of the season will be the Inter-varsity D ram a League Festival to be held in February . This year, m ore universities are planning to a ttend and competition is expected to be very keen. The I.V.D.L. has been gaining in strength since 1958 and great emphasis has been placed on the production of student-written plays.
On the whole, it is encouraging to see that young and talented playwrights are turning up in the universities. The university has become one of the last bastions of original Canadian theatre.

Sadly enough, any resemblance between some of these hoots and the original concept -of folks getting togerher to exchange songs. sing along, and in general enjoy themselves
• music in a participating way has been lost with the commercial atmosphere which has developed.
However much can be achieved and enjoyed by this new entertainment form if the performers \\ ill maintain as much of the authenticity of their songs and perhaps more important the style in which they present this material. The popularity of folk music has been steadily increasing in Canada; Universities all across the country are engaging folk singers and groups as never before, mostly in the form of hootennanies.
the respective group's vocal function. Suddenly they all joined the fragmented exerpts together in one very amusing song. For variety in the program he also had what he called a "pickup quartette," where any four singers get together and harmonize on many old time favorites. The next delightful novelty the audience was treated to was a "Bang up Quartette," where four peoople harmonize and any other persons wishing to join in must replace one in the quartette. The effect of these antics brought the house down with applause. Only an excellent chorus could have carried off something such as this. The standing ovation of the audience given to their magnificent ability to deviate from an accustomed form of presenting a program attests to their singing prowess. I think that the next time they perform in Montreal, all folkmusic lovers should make it a must to see them.

1luced The Dialogue by Norman B. Levine a third-year student of philosophy.
The production itself was very poor \\ilh bad timing and acting which was not much better. The play \\as almost completely misinterpreted by the director. John Francis. Regardless of this, a i;ood deal of the philosophical content came through. The play can be described as the particles of a man's mind in dramalie conflict. resolving the problem of whether a man can exist .:ilone. The Dialogue was tightly written and the drama well constructed.
The play was another encouraging note in the growth of ch ama in our universities. Last year, Jack Cunningham of S.G.W.U wrote \fbimidea a oneact avant-garde play which was rlone by the Georgian Players. Whimidea was perlormed in To-
f
ronto at the Canadian Inter-Vars ity Drama League Festival and Sir George placed in a runner-up position with one award and five hcnorable mentions.
This year Robert S. Shenrnocl, a former S.G.W.U. student, presented several works to the playwright's corner in Montreal. Both plays were well received.
Dram.:i groups in all Montreal universities are planning an acth·e year. The McGill group. under the direction of Craig Barrish. are planning to change emphasis to more commercial material. Here in Sir George. the Georgian Players are planning an evening of student-directed
we-act plays to be produced in November. The highlight of the season will be the Inter-varsity Drama League Festival to be held in February. This year, more universities are planning to attend and competition is expected to be very keen. The I.V.D.L. has been gaining in strength since 1958 and great emphasis has been placed on the production of student-written plays.
On the whole, it is encouraging to see that young and talented playwrights are turning up in I the universities. The university has become one of the last bastions of original Canadian theatre.
-John Harrison
On Thursday evening, October 24, 1963, the McGill Scope Society is presenting an evening with Ralph Ellison, one of the most dynamic negroe writers in North America. For this evening, a limited number of tickets will be offered to Sir George and McGill students for $1.00. They will be more expensive at the door if any remain. Tickets may be purchased at the students' receptionary in the basement.

The G eorgians did some excel- ten l runn ing in the relays. In the 4 x 110 yard event they gained second place w ith a team com prised of Tony Bush, G ordon Jones, Dave G reenstein and Rick Patten . This was the closest race of the da.y w ith the G eorgians losing by inches.
Howie N athan, a four-year-m an made his final appearance w orthw hile by placing in all his events and runn ing well in the 4 x 440 relay. This is the last m eet in which he will be taking an active part.
Doug S inger ran an exciting race in the 880 yard event and showed excellent prom ise for th e forthcom ing cross-country.
G ene Jam ieson had the crowd agog when he tried the 220 yards hurd le for the firs t time. He ran second in a record breaking race. Five m inutes la te r he ran a very good leg in the 4 x 440 relay.

The Athletic Council has
Intercollegiate Invitational
agreed to football "in principle". Surveys have been made, and the major problem appears to be one that has plagued every unit of our institution - suitable facilities.
I find it necessary after an interview with the Director of Physical Education to elaborate on the term "suitable facilities." This involves good field conditions, a d e q u a t e dressing rooms, and an area for medical and training rooms. It should be pointed out that an estimated $10,000 to $12,000 worth of equipment is involved, therefore pro p e r storage place is necessary to avoid this equipment being misplaced or left on taxis or buses.
Long term occupancy of a field is quite important. It is not feasible that a proper football program can be followed without the certainty of the availability of a field for practices and games.
A few encouraging facts should be made clear. In the repoTt submitted to the Athletics Council last November, it was pointed out that the appointment of a full time assistant to the Director of Physical Education was necessary be-
Georgian Dave Baxter is seen rece1m11g cup for highest indi,vidal scorer in field events
fore a football program could be started. This problem has been solved, by the appointment of Paul Arsenault, a capable young man who could be instrumental in initiating football into Sir George.
Secondly, I have been informed by Doug Insleay, the Director of Physical Education, that he has been approached by, and is in touch with various coaching prospects. According to Mr. Insleay "as soon as proper and suitable facilities are made available to us, we should have a football team".
:f. :f. :f. It is not surprising that our
Water Polo team was swamped by McGill in their last game. With due respect to coach Bela Egyed and his
courageous team, it seems unfair to expect very much from a team that is unable to practice properly. My prime concern is the fact that the YMCA has a pool which is not made available to this team. The University is "proudly" subtitled as a part of the YMCA, and as such I don't think it is asking too much to deprive a few lone bathers of the pool in order to accommodate a University team which is trying to bring credit to the institution.
* There is a new cook book to be put on the market entitled "Mystery suppers for bachelor athletes". It is unfortunate that the author of this would-be ingenious masterpiece prefers to remain ananymous at present. It is believed that he is somewhere in our midst, so make yourself known thou brilliant one.

The Georgian track team placed third in a field of six in the OSLIAA meet held at RMC, Kingston, on Saturday. Their 30-point total was a marked improvement over last year's 14 points.

Singular honor is due to Dave Baxter who displayed excellent form in winning the shot-put, the javelin, and placing second in the discus throw. Baxter won the cup presented to the highest individual scorer in field events. It marked the first year the trophy was given.

Georgians TrounceOutstanding Players
Zarand and Todd
By EVANS JONESIn their fourth OSLIAA enocun-
te r this year the Sir George William s University Soccer Squad defeated Loyola College 5-2 in a keenly contested gam e on Wednesday Oct. 16 a t Newman Park .
F rom the kick-off the large group of spectators were tre a ted to excellent soccer as the ball moved from one zone to the other. However, in the 5th minute Sir George forced a throw-in deep in the Loyola half of the field. This was intercepted by Ron Licorish who succeeded in hooking the ball over his as well as two defenders heads, to Arnie Todd who slam m ed home a first tim er to reg ister the Georgian’s first goal.
Three m inutes la te r the Georgians fouled the ball just outside their area. Loyola w ere aw arded a penalty on which they scored. After this it was m ainly a battle between an anxious Loyola offence and a solid Sir George defence, led by Gus Zarraud who trapped, pushed, hooked, flicked and distributed until in the 16th minute, he was able to get a true pass off to Ron Licorish, who raced down the right flank then crossed to Todd who, by this tim e, had interchanged to the inside-right position. He ran around two defenders and placed the ball fa r and wide from the Loyola goalie to register the Georgians second goal.
Fifteen minutes before the end ol the first half Ces Lynch col
lected a pass, raced up the left wing and shot to goal but succeeded in having the ball rebound off the crossbar onto Mike Brem- m er’s right foot and Sir George w ere now in the lead by 3-1. At this stage there was definite discord among the Loyola players, so much so tha t the referee had tc w arn two of their players against swearing a t each other. Despite this, however, their standard of playing rem ained unchanged a t half tim e as was the score.
On the resumption, spectators witnessed a referee who had endless difficulties in making decisions which resulted in intense conflict between Loyola and Sir George. The referee, in perhaps his wisest decision of the match, stopped the m atch, and called coach Wilcox and said- “you speak to your team and I ’ll speak to mine! !’’ Both team s resum ed the m atch and in the 15th minute Loyola forced a corner. A Georgian was heard speaking on the field and a penalty was awarded to Loyola instead, to m ake the score 3-2 in favour of Sir George.
The inimitable Arnie Todd collected his birthday gift in the 25th minute of this half when he collected a pass in the center, ran past the Loyola defence then beat an advancing goalie with a well placed shot in the fa r left corner of the net to send the Georgians further into the lead by a score' of 4-2.
Both team s resorted to hefty

kicking and rugged playing which resulted in two players, one from each team being put off the field.
Ron Licorish, 5 m inutes before the end, collected a pass midway in the Loyola half of the field which he lobbed to goal to make the score 5-2.
Special mention m ust be made of Arnie Todd and Gus Zarand who w ere particularly outstanding in the gam e. The Georgians will have a lot to show if these two players in particu lar and the team in general continue to play as they have played this year.

One boy being w atched very carefully is Paul Tingley, who has moved up from last year’s J /V team . TJie coach has a lot of confidence in th is p layer and feels th a t Pau l will have a good season.
Hockey W orkouts Continue• By SHELDON DERRICK
“He's going to m ake this the best team .” “He's a slavedriver but the best coach I ever had !” These were just a couple of the rem arks heard during a recent Georgian practice. T h e man everyone was talking about was Coach Paul Arsenault.
A rsenault is a go-getter with a lot of spirit-winning spirit! It is this kind of spirit that he is | trying to instill into his players.
The coach doesn't believe in scrim m aging too much in practice. He is a firm believer in conditioning, something to which everyone of his players will testify.
Arsenault m aintains that the best system is to create game conditions, that is, three on two rushes, clearing the puck out of

Another thing which Arsenault takes pride in is his formation of lines. Each line in his estim ation should have a digger, a scorer, and a puck carrier.
To date Arsenault has three lines working out together, subject to change a t any date. He's got Davey Dies centering Billy Ardell and Thornton McLaren. Another line has Don Wood pivoting G raham Wells and Stan Hodge. The third line consists of rookies Hugh Burrows. Neil Bacon and Trevor Kerr. Leading scorers so far a re Wood, Dies and Kerr.

Dean Flynn —No Problems For Steiger'u
On Saturday morning Dean of Student Affairs Magnus Flynn gave a very informative speech on the position of his office in the university organization and its various concerns in Sir George.
He first stated that the university regrets Bob Vaison’s resignation since Bob had done much work on planning during the sum m er months, however he did not think that Gloria Stieger would have any problems because of her long experience in student affairs at Sir George.
Dean Flynn continued that his office was presently working on several problems, including the serious one of residence, in cooperation with the student leaders.
There is, he stated, close cooperation with the student leaders. and this had already resulted in the student accident insurance plan now in effect.
In the field of discipline, which comes under the student affairs office. Dean Flynn said that disciplinary problems a t Sir George were negligible and that there is no intention of instituting a cam pus police force (‘hiring students to spy on their fellow students” ) as has been the case at other Canadian universities.
He pointed out that the student governm ent had booked more than 1200 items through his office. constituting a m ajor co- curricu lar program m e and said
By ALEX SHENFISLDthat he was im pressed by the m ature way in which the student governm ent com m unicated with both the adm inistration and outsiders. Also that the role of the individual student is to supply this leadership positively in the m anner that Dr. Hall refers to as the “Georgian Spirit.”
This type of effort, he went on, was needed to help overcome the problems presented by the ra pidly increasing student population, which now totals close to
15,000 in all schools.These problems include in tra
faculty and interdisciplinary communication, a difficulty which SLOC, with its opportunity for interchange eases. SLOC Dean Flynn pointed out, originated with the Student Affairs Office although it is now run by the student leaders.
In conclusion the Dean of Student Affairs described the student leader as one who works, serves, learns and leads.

Addressing SLOC’s opening session on the role and structure of the SUS last Saturday, recently resigned SUS president Bob Vaison described the Students’ U ndergraduate Society both as “ that which includes all co-curricu lar activities a t the University” and, in its specific sense, as the council m em bers only.

Dr. Dymock —"Cultural Island NecessaryOn Sunday morning Dr. Hedley
Dymock of the Sir George William s departm ent of applied social science addressed the delegates on the topic of leadership.
He stated that up until a few years ago the “ G reat M an” theory of leadership held. This was a belief that there was a certain type of person who was a born leader by virtue of certain personality traits. However, Dr. Dymock continued, when social scientists tried to find these tra its they were completely unsuccessful.'
They did, he continued, find that leadership is not a personal tra it but ra ther a function of the situation. That is, in different situations various people wtihin
the group will em erge as leaders.Dr. Dymock went on to say
that people learn and develop leadership skills. These skills are not necessarily inborn.
Like any other skill, leadership is best acquired through p ractice, so social scientists in this field are interested in creating a laboratory environment where people can practice these leadership skills, he said.
This m ay prove difficult because it requires a “cultural island” in which everyone is encouraged to work and learn together. It is for this reason, Dr. Dymock explained, that intensive leadership courses and sem inars such as SLOC are being held away from cities.
Dr. Dymock further stated that the le tter from the NDP club in last week’s Georgian only presented a p art of the picture, that is, the expense side of SLOC. Adm ittedly the cost of SLOC is high and the cost of this y ea r’s conference is approxim ately double that of last year's , but this was largely due to the added length, and all these considerations had to be taken into account when evaluating SLOC, he added.
He further stated tha t he knew of no Canadian university that possesses as advanced a leadership conference as Sir George, but of those U.S. universities that do, all chose resort town locations sim ilar to that of SLOC ’63. This was probably due to the
helping th e capital funds cam paign for th e new building, he added.
In rep ly to G loria S tieger’s question, Mr. Thom pson said th a t th e re was a p lan to reach po ten tia l a lum ni while they w ere still a ttend ing U niversity in stead of by le tte r , a fte r g raduation, th ere being a standing com m ittee of fo u r m em bers to deal w ith the com m unications p rob lem s arising out of this.
H e w ent on to explain th a t th e m ajo rity of S ir G eorge’s alumni were in the M ontreal area and th a t the ou t of town chap te rs w ere sem i-autonom ous in constitution.
Mr. Thom pson concluded by expressing his personal p ride in th e s tu d en t leaders and said th a t h e looked forw ard to seeing them as alum ni.

attendance problem that would arise if such conferences were held in cities.
Dr. Dymock went on to state that two years ago the emphasis of the conference shifted from straight orentiation to considera tion of leadership roles and that he felt SLOC ’63 continued this trend.
The speaker defined leadership as “helping a group to accom plish its task or helping to develop the group.” He emphasized this two-sided aspect of leadership and said that both had to be taken into account.
F or this reason, helping the group to be m ore effective as such was just as im portant as concentration on the task, since overem phasis on the la tte r would decrease production, he added.
Dr. Dymock continued that both actively obstructive and apathetic m em bers w ere sym ptom atic of a malfunctioning group. The group that perform s well does so through cohesiveness and cooperation, which are achieved by having a common goal towards which the potentials and abilities of all, ra th e r than just one or two m em bers a re directed.
Apathy can also be counteracted by increasing interactions within the group, which will involve all m em bers and thus fulfill the emotional need for the feeling of achievement, he said.
Dr. Dymock continued that change is also a group process and as such it cannot be forced upon the m em bers from above. If they dislike a change the m em bers will e ither not implement it or simply withdraw from the group.
Thus, he continued, the real challenge is not to think up ideas but to im plem ent them by involving all m em bers of the group in a constructive m anner. This, he concluded, was the m ajor task of SLOC.
reason for the existence of the SUS is to give students a chance to broaden them selves beyond book-learning by meeting a cross- setion of their fellow Georgians. It is also, he said, a m eans by which the student can develop the ability to work with other people and learn such skills as program ming and planning.
He added that to interest people in these activities was a m ajor problem, and that all students should work towards helping the SUS in its unique linking role at SGWU.
Also, the SUS, in its narrow sense, gives some students the opportunity and responsibility to represent the student body, and to make im portant decisions and thus to accept responsibility, which he stated, was both useful and important.
It is also, he said, im portant that the SUS presents a positive image of Sir George to the outside world as well as providing democratic and m ature leadership within the university.
The ex-president reiterated that his reasons for resigning were of a personal and medical nature “more or less on doctor’s orders” and said that he thought SUS council m em bers were capable of fulfilling their roles well. He asked the assembled delegates to place their confidence in the council and he stated his intention of helping them wherever possible.
In closing, he averred that Gloria Steiger would m ake an excellent president and expressed confidence in the success of SLOC '63, since suggested im provem ents of last y ear’s conference had been implemented.
