     This is a reprint from the 
     
     Cadre,0ctober 30,1973. The 
     
     situation is still much the 
     
     same. . 
     
    

    
     ’Carnival has always tradi— 
     
     tionally come at a time when 
     
     people need a break from 
     
     studying. It came so early 
     
     this year that nobody’really 
     
     had time to even start study- 
     
     ing. Maybe we should have 
     
     another Carnival this year. 
     
     ED. ' 
     
    
   
   
    
     I remember asking about 
     
     Winter Carnival'last‘year 
     
     and always getting theYPeHH 
     
     sponse, "It's great."‘pn 
     
     probing deeper into the sub— 
     
     ject of what went on during 
     
     Winter Carnival,I would always 
     
     hear, "Everybody gets drunk." 
     
    

    
     This year instead of re— 
     
     stricting such a weekend of 
     
     festivities to once during 
     
     the winter,we are also 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     _J 
     
    
   
   
    
     carnival?" 
     
    
   
   
    
     game of '46 or other sports 
     
     events of equal mention. We 
     
     wouldn't have any problem 
     
    

    
     though getting a different 
     
    
   
   
    
     Fall Festival turns out 
     
     anything like Winter Car— 
     
     nival,you should have more 
     
     students participating in 
     
    

    
     the excapade then you would 
     
    

    
     for any other event that 
     
     goes on at the University. 
     
     This has been proved this 
     
     year with plays,lectures etc., 
     
     having almost no attendence 
     
     what so ever. ' 
     
    

    
     If this is the case,the ‘ V ‘ 
     
     University should attempt 
     
     to get a liquor licence 
     
     for every weekend of the 
     
     year. We could have a fest- 
     
     ival or carnival for the first 
     
     day of fall and one for the 
     
     first day of spring. We could 
     
     have one for Halloween and 
     
     another for Trudeau's birth- 
     
     day. If the student body 
     
     'really put their minds to it, 
     
     theyrcould think of a reason 
     
     for every weekend there is. 
     
    

    
     These festivities have 
     
     always fallen on a weekend 
     
     with a football or hockey 
     
     game. I can see no reason 
     
     for restricting it only to 
     
     these"two sports. They 
     
     could also be held in conju~ 
     
     nction with basketball games, 
     
     or tiddlywinks tournaments. 
     
    

    
     A little bit of creativness 
     
     would have to hefiused to" 
     
     changevthe-procedings around 
     
     so that it wouldn't get boring 
     
     from one week to the next. 
     
     Some other beer drinking 
     
     cultures would have to be 
     
     used instead of the Irish 
     
     and the Germans all the time. 
     
     Instead of highlights of the 
     
     Canada—Russia hockey series, 
     
     we could show films of the

     It has come to my attention 
     
     that duplicate coffee machines 
     
     may be found in the faculty 
     
     lounge and the New Library. 
     
     One small difference exists 
     
     in that the machine in the 
     
     library exacts a 20¢ per cup

     Dear Sir: 
     
    

    
     I see from a notice in 
     
     Topics that Freshmen were 
     
     dragooned into sitting for 
     
     the stupid Canadian Test of 
     
     English Language,by order 
     
     of the Senate. This,as spo— 
     
     sors of the test acknowledge 
     
     is the first step toward a

     Individual differences in

     ’ In twenty years of teaching 
     
     hundreds of students in the 
     
     U.S. and Canada,I have 
     
     encountered few with any 
     
    

    
     real "incompetency(sic) in 
     
    

    
     the English language." Many 
     
     have been inarticulate,because 
     
     of psychological or cultural 
     
     alienation. A great many 
     
     others simply haVe lacked 
     
    

    
     good models. If such students

     The object of the test and 
     
     of the course,as I see it,. 
     
     is to coerce students into 
     
     Speaking and writing a sta-

     their "incompetency" will 
     
     soon disappear. Employment
