When a family grows up and goes its several ways, when a job that has to be done separates you by thousands of miles from near and dear ones, there's a gap left that photographs only partly fill. And yet, it takes only a minute—and costs so little—to pick up your phone and make that beloved photo talk.

r I ^HIS spring the members of Convocation will elect a Chancellor to succeed Phyllis Gregory Ross (B.A., 1925) who has served with such distinction since 1961. There are two candidates for the office, John Murdoch Buchanan (B.A., 1917) and Randall K. Enomoto (B.A., 1965). Simultaneously, the same voters will choose fifteen members of Senate from twenty-six candidates.

The situation facing the electorate is unique, not because there are two candidates (this has happened before) but because now for the first time an aspirant to the University's highest office is conducting a vigorous campaign.

Traditionally, the Chancellor of the University, along with the Chancellors of other Canadian universities, has been a prominent citizen with a record of eminent service to the University, the community, the province, and the nation. The Chancellor is the University's titular head. He presides on ceremonial occasions, such as Congregation, he bestows degrees, he sits on the Board of Governors and some of its committees, he represents in his person the full authority and dignity of the institution. Often, thanks to his known reputation, he is able to ease problems and to effect immeasurable benefits for the Uni­ versity. The tradition is an honourable one and worthy of preservation.

The members of the Executive of the Alumni Association have weighed the issues care­ fully and have concluded that they must, in the vital interests of the University, urge all Alumni to support John Buchanan.

The Association, of course, can understand the desire of the students to participate in the making of policy at their University. After all, the active members of the Association were once themselves active students. We do not, however, believe that the office of Chan­ cellor is an appropriate goal for the students' ambitions.

John Buchanan embodies all the qualities to which we have, happily, become accustomed in a Chancellor. He belongs in the company of those citizens who have preceded him in the University's senior Chair and who form the subject of an article elsewhere in this journal.

We once more ask our members to carry out their responsibilities: to consider the well- being of the University and to vote.

The purpose of such a body would not be to inhibit the university programs, but rather to assure the public and the governments that these monies are being carefully husbanded and the expenditures wisely made. What new responsibilities does UBC's Alumni Association have for the future?

Are teaching assistants incompetent?

19 The Henry Angus

View north from the Henry Angus penthouse.

RAT MINDS, human emotions and statistics are all being studied and analyzed these days under one roof. That roof covers the Henry Angus Building, most recently com­ pleted addition to UBC's campus, a building capable of providing working space for over 2000 students and some 130 faculty. The students are registered in courses in the Faculty of Commerce and the social science departments of the Faculty of Arts, that is in psychology, sociology, anthro­ pology, political science, economics and the Institute of Industrial Relations. The working space includes, besides such things as regular classrooms and two large lecture theatres, facilities like seminar rooms and study carrels for graduate students, laboratories for the study, through one-way viewing glass, of the behaviour of people, and laboratories for the study of the behaviour of rats; two U-shaped classrooms with a special seating arrangement to facilitate discussion in cer­ tain course work; a large workshop which makes equipment to order for experimental work; a remote computer station, a statistical centre for the social sciences, and so on, and on. Designers of the Henry Angus Building are Thompson, Berwick, Pratt & Partners. It is the first fully air-condi­ tioned building on the campus, has a four-storey teaching wing, an eight-storey office wing, and from the top of this latter an incomparable view of the campus. While it may be true, as one professor claims, that the most photogenic items in the building are the secretaries, Among other things Dr. Roderick Wong the Chronicle photographer concentrated on some other studies the effect in rats of infantile subjects that he thought might also be of interest to our stimulation on learning. readers.

There's a research project going on to study the personality factors in learning to avoid punishment. Here a graduate student works with an undergraduate volunteer. Dr. Robert Hare explains the use of the Grass Polygraph (cost about $7000), some­ times thought of as a lie detector. It is used in the study of psychopaths and in other ways important to psychology research.

All photocopying and mimeograph work for the building occupants, except the Com­ merce Faculty, is done by Miss Sharon Suth­ erland in this centrally-located room.

23 AN AWFUL LOT OF LIVING has to be compressed into one hour on the UBC campus these days. For thousands of students there's the little matter of find­ ing a spot at a lunch counter to buy a sandwich. Others settle that problem by taking a bag lunch to a noon-hour lecture or other cultural event. Others again find it the magic hour to stage a stunt. And sometimes there is a crowd- drawing attraction like Dr. Macdonald's meeting with the students for an open question period.

Mr. Fredrickson is confident of an­ other good year in Alumni Annual Giving and he offers sound reasons for his optimism.
