If ,,., I X' 5, 'tl xfxi, X3 Physics Club With grants from the A.M.S., University of Toronto and the Physics Faculty at UVic, the Physics Club was able to send a representative to the 1966 Under- graduate Conference on Physics in Toronto in Cctober. The Club held regular weekly meetings where up-to-date films on Astro- nautics, Astronomy, Computers and other Physics subjects were alternated with talks and demonstrations by UVic's own research scientists on their activities. Visits were made to the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory, the Pacific Naval Laboratory. A series of outside lecturers addressed the club. The UVic Physics Faculty is charged with the design of the beam transport for the TRIUMF accelerator Qabovej. The Physics Club built a scale model of the Facility with the help of the Physics workshop. This model was on display at the Open House, at the Western Physics Conference and also at UBC.

First term, they saw the workings of an archaeological dig through slides, then left for the Gulf Islands to see the sites for themselves, one at Montague Harbour, and the other on Cabriola Island. Second term, the group travelled to UBC's Anthropology Museum and Archaeology Laboratory. This year, Mr. Don Abbott spoke to the club about the new museum and Mr. Reg Keely about the Maori of New Zealand.

Political Clubs This year was an active one for campus political clubs, all of which participated in the model parliament and clubs day. Probably the most notable was the Political Science Forum, headed by Gordon Pollard Qtop, middlej and later by Mike DeRosenroll Qtop, second from rightj . Shown above is former Russian leader, Alexander Kerensky Qsecond from leftj , one of this yearls guest speakers. The Liberal Club, under direction of Peter Gibson flower picture, middlej , invited speakers such as MP John Turner Qlower, rightj, and sent a delegate to a November convention in Ottawa. The Progressive-Conservative Club, under Ian Baird, flower, leftj sent a delegate to the Conservative party leadership convention. The N.D.P. Club, with President Stein Gudmundseth also sponsored guest speakers and distributed literature. Similar, but more unusual activities were carried on by the iconoclastic Christian Atheist party under President Jane Henley-Lewis. The Social Credit Club presented a brief on education to the Hon. Leslie Peterson and met Cabinet ministers at a young Socred luncheon. According to President Fred Pye, the SC club also served as a handy outlet for the leftist material of the Hpanicking pink?

Biology Club The Biology Club projects and activities this year varied from slides and films to winning the Chariot race and taking third prize on Club's Day. The club spent several weekends at Eve's Park near Duncan where living accommoda- tions were set up and trails were built through the park to prepare it for use as a field research station for the Biology Department. Because of widespread interest in the Buttle Lake situation, the Biology Club held an evening talk by the Hon. Ken Kiernan Qrightj to discuss conservation in the parks. In the field of public relations, club members guided visitors through the Biology Department on Open House, as well as sponsored a seminar for Qoo high school students interested in courses and careers in Biology. Cther field trips included travels to Simon Fraser University, Vancouver Public Acquarium, Ladner waterfowl refuge, and Botanical Beach near Port Renfrew. Num v - sm i ix .T AL! 4
