JOHN'S, NEWFOUNDLAND JANUARY 16, 1957 MEMORIELLES RETURN! Undefeated Girls Greeted By Motorcade The Memorial Girls' Basketball Team stepped out of a TCA North Star at Torbay Airport last Saturday into the biggest and loudest reception ever given a Memorial team. About 200 students shouted the Memorial yells as the team, follow- ed by Coach Eaton, left the plane. The crowd, shivering in the near- lero weather, filled' the approach and swarmed around the girls to offer congratulations and/ welcome them home. Dr. Gushue. Dr. Hunter. Bill Campbell of the A.U. and Bill Rompkey of the SRC were on hand to officially welcome the team and its coach. Miss Muriel McKay of CJON Radio and TV presented each girl with a bouquet of flow- 1 ers and a gift. After some confusion caused by the icy condition of the airport parking area, a gaily decorated pctorcade started for St. John's. ! Horns honked happily and streamers fluttered in the breeze as Memorial showed off its heroines to the city. Saturday afternoon shoppers stop, ped and waved as the cars crawled west on Water Street. All St. John's had followed the girls' tour with interest as the news media • gave wide publicity to their mainland victories. The official cars carrying the I girls went to City Hall while the '<■ others proceeded to the University [Annex. In welcoming the team, [Mayor Mews said the bright Mem- orielles were just the thing to brighten up the drab walls of the Council Chamber/ "It seems to me," he said, "that Memorial and I are getting closer all the time." The girls with Coach Eaton, the President, and Dr. Hunter signed the guest book and posed for photographers. Mr. Eaton said jokingly that he always thought he was having a had time handling his three small children at home. "But after this," he said, "it will be a relief to get home to them." Dr. Gushue, who had just returned from Ottawa, said he was very proud of the girls and expressed his gratitude to the coach for his part in the tour. Carolyn Pike, team captain, thanked everyone for such a warm reception. At the Annex the team made a grand entrance amid applause and pells. A lunch, provided by Miss Baird and her household scientists brought the afternoon's activities 0 a close. The girls were guests of honor it a dance held in the auditorium tt night.

THE MUSE Awarded Jacques Bureau Trophy ^T^ SRJC Conducts Accommodation The first major inter-varsity award ever to come to Memorial is the Jacques Bureau Trophy, won in 1956 by THE MUSE. Memorial University's newspaper was announced the winner of the trophy at a banquet held in the Tudor Room of Toronto's Royal York Hotel on December 29th at the conclusion of a three day CUP conference. The Jacques Bureau Trophy is awarded annually to the best Canadian university newspaper publishing once a week or less often. Editor Sid Noel and associate editor Garfield Fizzard attended the CUP conference and were present at the banquet to accept the trophy on behalf of The Muse. Other winners of CUP awards were The Gateway of the University of Alberta, which won the Southam Trophy for the best paper publishing more than once a week and Le Quartier Latin of the University of Montreal, which won both the LeDroit Trophy for the best French language newspaper and the Bracken Trophy for the best editorial writing. This is the way the CUP award winners are chosen. In the case of the Jacques Bureau Trophy, each of the approximately 15 campus papers eligible for the award submitted their three best issues published after the October 25th cut-off date to the judges. (These are the headlines of the three issues submitted by The Buse— "Wild Welcome For Will!", "Student Delegation Interviews Premier," and "354 Say Out"). The judges then listed the papers in order of merit and sent their decisions to the CUP executive. The Muse won easily, being ranked first by two of the three judges and second by the other. The judges for the Jacques Bureau Trophy were" Mr. Stuart Keate of the Victoria Daily Times, Mr. Arnold Edinborough of the Kingston Whig^Standard, and Mr. Martin Lynch of the Toronto Globe and Mail, who was present at the banquet to hand down the decision of the judges and present the trophy. Mr. Lynch also gave a report on some of the top college newspapers. In hi sevaluation of The Muse he said the points he found particularly good were the overall (Continued on page 3) The Students' Representative Council, in co-operation with the University authorities, is now conducting a survey of student accommodation jn St. John's. Any student living at a boarding house, or any place other than his home, is urged to fill out the questionnaire now available at the Registrar's Office and pass it in as soon as possible. It is hoped to have the survey completed within the near future and the results analized along with other relevant information already available to the University. The survey will help bring any deficiencies in student accommodation to the attention of the University and may lead to recommendations being made for its improvement. All information given this survey will toe kept in strictest confidence. Studio For MUN Radio During the Christmas holidays MUN Radio moved its equipment into what was formerly the projection room of the East Annex Auditorium. This room will now be a permanent recording studio for the Radio Society. The acquisition of a studio is the first major step in MUN Radio's planned expansion. The amplifier and master control board of the PA system has already been installed and put in working condition and a new, professional- type tape recorder, to cost $700, has bee ordered. MUN Radio will now be independent of the CBC, whose facilities it formerly used. According to program coordinator Dave Warren, the next big step will be the installation of loudspeakers in the common rooms and the lobby of the East Annex. MUN snows, record programs, and newscasts can then be piped "live" to these places. More radio shows are planned in addition to the weekly CBC Show, University Review. It is hoped that air time on the other local stations will become available as well. Long range plans of the Radio Society also include a transmitter right on the campus. To finance these projects the Radio Society has found it necessary to borrow $500 in addition to its $250 SRC grant. To help repay this debt the Society will be presenting folk singer Omar Blon- dahl, better known as VOCM's "Sagebrush Sam," in the Auditorium on Saturday night, Also, Saturday night record daiices are planned for the remainder of the term with proceeds going to the Radio Society. Those mainly responsible for the recent progress of MUN Radio are program co-ordinator Dave Warren, assistant co-ordinator Winston Baker, chief engineer Peter Seary, and faculty advisor - Doctor Storey. "The work done this year," said Dave Warren, "will provide a sound basis for future development. This is just the beginning." Hungarian Relief Memorial has given $330 to the Hungarian Relief campaign. $80 was collected by local WUSC through student contributions. Secretary Russell reports that she is "quite satisfied." The SRC budgeted the remaining $250. SCM Christmas Conference The University of N.B. played host to the annual maritime regional conference of the SCM. Thirty-five delegates from the six maritime Universities gathered to discuss the age-old query "What is man." Sandra Drodge, attending the Conference as Memorial's representative reported a highly suc- four days.
