BRITAIN’S BIG MOVE

In the rush of weekend an- nouncement—considered here the biggest since Britain devalued the pound in l949—one of the most striking was Britain's deci- sion to merge official and trans- ferable sterling, making them convertible with dollars at the of- ficial rate outside of the sterling area.

P.W.C. Term In

Another year has slipped by at Prince of Wales, and another' milestone has been added to that cherished road of College mcm- ories. With the passing of the 1958 term, many new and old in- stitutions have been revised or invented, all guaranteed to add to the “memories of old Prince of Wales." The object of this col- umn will be to relive and record what has been accomplished be- tween September and December.

It may seem a bit backwards to begin a history where the story should end, but the most impor. tant accomplishment of the yam—'5 work was when the student body sat down. pen in hand, butterflys in the stomach, and hopefully pre- pared to write end of the term exms. To try and predict the out- come of these exams, which are Wortl‘l 40 per cent of the total year’s n‘larks would be folly. Rather let's take a look at how these marks werc achieved. and under what conditions, for these memories will remain long after the mark is forgotten.

Who can forget their first col- lege term exams written in the auditorium, or the morning of the first and last exam? Remember getting up bright and early Sat- urday morning, hurriedly gulping a breakfast you didn't want. then rushing to the lockerroom to com— pare notes with the boys in the hope that you covered everything. LONG WAIT

Then that long wait for the bell to ring at 8:30. when you could file up to the auditorium. chomp- ing away on that ever present gum and trying to keep a cool. calm and collected look on your face as you filed in amongst the many rows of tables and chairs trying in vain to remember that vague seat number the College office passed you. Ah there it is. in the middle of the row. four seats in from the aisle. all you have to do now is climb over a few of your friends who are be- tween you and your throne or should we say. cross. of intellec- tual inspiration. Time to look around, wonder who that doll, sitting a few rows behind. is?

Now the moment of truth draws near. time to dig out the as- sorted pens in your pocket. let's see, fountpen, two ball points and three pencils, guess you have enough in case you run out of ink or break a lead. Here come the papers. wonder if the test Will be hard? Ah here it is. let‘s see wait a minute this one isn’t the exam you studied for up goes your hand, and one of the many tea- chers rush to your aid, youex- plain, he consoles, the argument ends with the eternal students cry, “But sir.....

Or do you remember the stu- dents. The guy who 'htaﬂ the brain, you see him coming to the exam, a smile on his face, eyes bright in contrast to your blood shot pccpers, a whistle and a bounce in his step. confident he knows all, deplicable little man that he is. Or the “crammcr”, up all night, vainly forcing 1n the facts, tired but unbowcd as squirms into the seat next to you muttering “Plato and Aristolle were son-g writers who “more “The Music of the Spheres", sung by the Muses."

Then there's always the late ar- rival, he comes scrambling to the door, hands his coffee and toast to one of the teachers. sprints down the aisle. climbs‘over some, one's back to get to his seat. sits down and wipes his presplrlng brow on his pajama .sleeve and wiggles his toes in Ills sllppers. Finally there is the reflector. the guy you meet after the marks are back and you are relaxmg \vlth‘a much needed cup of coffee. He 5 the fellow that should have known! the answer, just got a bit mixed . up. but wait til next year. I

saw in the British decision the elimination of any further argu- ment that Britain had to shut out Canadian and American goods because she was short of dollars. “We now can look forward to a more rapid elimination of trade discrimination against our ex- ports in the United Kingdom." he said in a statement. Merging of official and trans- ferable sterling doesn't mean much to Canada in itself but Mr. Fleming suggested "this forward stop means that there is no longer

'financial reason for any distinc-

tion in payment for imports be- tween dollar sources and other sources of supply." RESTRICTION VANISHES

"This is what is meant by the unification of official sterling and transferable sterling. As a result of this action, the financial basis for restricting imports from dol- lar countries more severely than from other outside sources has disappeared."

Britain has already removed I lot of her postwar import curbs against North American good-s, particularly raw materials. At the Montreal Commonwealth con- ference last September, she re- moved discriminatory curbs on salmon, machinery and news- print.

And she pledged at that time to start removing similar curbs against consumer goods and foodstuffs early in the new year. Her merging of two different kinds of sterling for convertibility purposes have increased Cana-

Inclucled Many Activities

By William Henry

quaintences and see who passed the Entrance exams you wrote in the Spring. Next day you are an old student, wandering through the corridors searching for the class that Is supposed to be in the room marked on the timetable, but isn’t.

The first social of the year was the Get Aqualnted Dance, and you wonder how they can pack so many in the auditorium, but you haven't seen anything yet, wait till College elections.

The election was late this year. but it seemed to gain power from its postponmont. Three parties were finialy formed, the Welsh- men, the Last Chalmers and the Second Last Chancers. The stately college corridors were draped In posters proclaiming the virtues of the candidates of the parties. the Monday before the election on Tuesday, a rally was'held, you listened vainly for various speak- ers words as two bands earnestly turned out sour notes, and the student body chuckled at a goat one of the parties used for a man- cot. Finally you gave up.

Tuesday you voted, that night you meet your choice at a Vic- tory Dance. The Second Last Chancers got the majority and Ken MacKenzIe, Fourth Year. was to be Student Council presi- dent. He announces that the pro ceeds of the Dance are to go to the Springhill Disaster Relief Fund. A good time was had by all Next day the corridors disdain- fully drop their draping: and re- gain their dllznity.

Next is the election of the Campus King and Queen. Ilt‘irst a primary elect-is held to nominate candidates from the various years. For three days these can- didntes are posted in the halls. Finally the final election rolls around. you vote and wonder. That night you turn up for the torch light parade. and there they are. the royalty of the campus. King Hugh Multan. Queen Norma Duvor. Prince Ken Mac- Kenzle and Princess Lorraine Cameron. After the parade the Coronation Dame is held. and you are present when College Arch- bishop Bob Lund ofﬁcially pro- claims Hugh and Norma King and Queen of the Campus.

Add another Record Hop to the danche already mentioned and the social review is completed. But socials were not all that took place last term.

DR. PENFIELD

There was the Robertson Mam- orial Lecture by Dr. Penllold and that interesting and amusing opera by the Toronto Opera Fes- tival group, Rossini's {mucus comic opera. “The Barber of Seville". You think proudly that this is the first opens to be Pre‘ seated in (nuclottatown for nearly half a century and you become proud that it is Old PWC that's leading the way again. .

Then turn to sports. a bit hesi- tantly. but proud never the less. First on the list is the illsfated football team. The team was coached by Mac MacDonald, and al‘l'ioug‘n the boys didn't win any of their three games against the SDU Varsity squad, they never gave up trying and isn‘t that the foundation that apos'tsmenshlp

dlan government hopes that the crumbling of the inner core of Britain’s curbs on trade will soon be a reality.

Britain is Canada's top over- seas market, taking about 8737,- 000,000 worth of Canadian goods last year. She plays banker for sterling which finances more than half the world's trade.

CHAIN REACTION

Iler moves towards convertibil lty Immediater set up a chain reaction with virtually all of Western Europe immediately sn- nouncing various slides of con- vertibility of their own curren- cies. To the extent that most of these countries have Import curbs on some goods. their currencies may not be fully convertible Jith dollars but they nevertheless are strong moves In that direction.

Most spectacular of the shift: was in France. In addition to some measure of convertibility. the franc was cut by I7 per cent to 493 francs lo the U.S. dollar from the previous £0. Premier de Gaulle announcal lifting of (1qu restrictions on 90 per cent of France's foreign trade.

For some years France has maintained some tight curbs against goods from Canada and the U.S. Recently the Canadian government made a fresh bid to get a few more of these curbs re- moved without luck. Officials now view the de Gaullc announcement with surprise but they are sure it will lead to more Canadian trade in spite of higher French costs for Canadian goods.

rest upon. Then there was the squad trip to Halifax to play St. Mary's and another loss but you never gave up, maybe next year they will do. and the boys are to be congratulated on their hard work.

CO-ED SOCCER

Soccer was the game for the College this year, co-cd soccer. The team was coached by Prof. Peter hurts. and the girls clean

ed up all their opponents. Four

games were played. three In a league against Queen Charlotm. two games won. and the third tied. Ah arise again ego, good work girls.

The College was not limited to football and soccer. A team has been entered in the Island Basket- ball League. and another In the City Volley Ball comp'etition. But the darling of the college is the hockey team entered In the City League. Jack Ready is the hard driving coach. and the boys sceem to be the League's dark horse, because, although the boys haven't played a game as yet, they have been condcmmed by spar-(writers. who would like to see a Summorside team in their place. But knowing Spy and his hard-drile tactics of coaching you have complete confidence in the boys and are willing to over- look the bearcrs of sad tidings for the future.

HOCKEY

Intermural hockey got under way before the term ended. and the league is very competitive and promises much entertainment for the second term. Inter-mural basketball has also begun to shake off its year's Inactivity and I league should begin after the New Year. Let's hope the fourth you Bombers arise once more. with their pecular brand of the hoop game. Finally. theiHula Hoop hit the College, enough said.

Besides the aforementioned activities there were many out- side clubs and Young People's Unions organized. To begin to mention their various activities and multitude accomplishments would require to much space, suf- fice to say they are popular. WUSC

One club in particular. the World University Service Com- mittee at the College has had a prosperous year. This Committee became a part of the Student's Council last year and since then has had parties, socials. visits from the WUSC Treasure Van, and sent one member. Gail Johns- ton. the present President. to the WUSC International Summer Seminar in Yugoslavia. PUBLICATIONS

Finally we turn to publications. The editors of the various college

papers were chosen shortly after1

Student's Council was formed. So far two of them. the College Times and the Campus Capers. have had one edition. Both papers were top rate. especially the Times. which reached publica- tion before the end of the term. even though its original editor was forced to resign due to stul-ies. The two editors are to be congratulated. and it is hoped that the third publication. the College yearbook. the Welshman. will con- tinue wi‘b'l the high standards sets by its junior partners.

International Control Of lAtom May Come In I959

There Is Increasing optimism In Washington, which long has been dubious about the Soviet Union's real intention on the much - touted test ban, that the Russians finally are ready to , strike a workable rgreemcnt with the Western powers.

I This Is based partly on the Russian performance In the Gen. eva East—West conference on a nuclear test ban. now in recess for the Christmas holidays. The Russians (here, officials note. have Indulged In serious. hard bargaining with evidence of So-

' meat.

It Is based also on a belle! that the Soviets, through their widely- advcrtised desir‘ for a world- ' wide test ban, have pushed them. selves so far out on a limb that they now cannot turn back. VETO QUESTION

One of the most optimistic re ports has come from U.S. State Secretary Dulles. never noted for his faith in Soviet agreements. Yet, he told the recent NATO Council meeting in Paris the Rus- sian: have moved a long way to- ward tho Western «low on a test suspension and said he was fairly confident about the outcome of the Geneva talks.

Before messlnl their talks for two weeks. the Geneva negotia- tors reached agreement on the first four articles 0! a test ban treaty. These provide for prohi- bition of tests, an obligation by each natlon to co . operate wIih the control organlzation and a fromowork' for the organization Itself.

When they resume their work early In the new year, the dole- gates face a sales of long, tough nolotlations that probably will carry them Into the early wring.
