Clear The Air On Issues The Canadian voting public could be treated during this election campaign to television debate between Prime liiin ister Trudeau and Opposition Leader Robert Stanfield Both men are relatively new leaders of the countrys two major parties Both need as wide an exposure as possi ble in the short time there is before election day Jun 25 The strategists of both parties are said to be considering carefully the lm plications of debate similar to that en gaged in by the late President Kennedy and Richard Nixon during the 1980 residential election in the United tates Both sides will have to decide there is some political advantage to be gained however before any decision is made There is support in some quarters for the debate on the grounds that it is important that the electorate knows pre cisely where the two leaders stand on major issues of the day This will be important to those voters who know what the issues are and understand them The number of votersin this Lack Of Leadership Oriilia Packet at Times There is rich vein of irony in the recent protests of Dr Bissell the ab sentee president of the University of Toronto regarding student hooligan ism and the problems it poses for our universities For Dr Blssell is himself shining example of the inadequate leadership from which our universities are currently suffering and of the sort of vacuous irresponsibility which has en couraged the growth of Just such student activity as he now depletes cindeed Dr Bissells complaints are typical of the inanities which the public has re cently come increasingly to expect from the heads of too many of our univers ities for Dr Blsseil deplores not student violence or mob action of itself but rather the effect they may have to cut ting off the flow of funds The fact is that todays university president to put it bluntly is long on intellect but short on guts The new crop of abodemtos lacks the courage to face up to the responsibilities of admin isterihg great and growing community institution and to take unpopular deci sions and enforce them as the admin istrators of other undertakings of com parable size must do in private business or public service The failure of our universitiest failure of discipline and the failure comes from the top It is simply failure of leadership there is nothing fundamentally wrong with students but rather with the men who are supposed to be responsible for their education On varietyofrpretexts DOWN MEMORYLANE 30 YEARS AGO IN TOWN Barrie Examiner May 1938 George SheriIfg and Mr and Mrs Raymes

ought to make use of modern communication facilities as much as possible And what better time to do it than during general election Thomas Douglas and Real Caouctie might be included too most of todays professors and admin istrators are evading their very real responsibility to lead and govern what is in effect sizable community It is fashionable today to parade this lack of leadership as deliberate policy cal culated to encourage student selfdeter mination and maturity but in effect it creates power vacuum whlch breeds anarchy and fosters insecurity From the ministry itself down to the teaching level the administration our higher education today suffers from lack of character and decisiveness with administrators and academics alike courting the favor ufthose over whom they have been set in authority Dif ficult decisions unpalatable policies are evaded eventhe protest mavenisms which university professors take up are safely stereotyped popular favorites crusades against war
