(Ur )--aAbout 250 Grade 13 students began registering today for the Uni- versity of Guelph's first spring term under the university's new trimester system, the first offered by an Ontario univers- ity. The system enables students entering the university to com- plete graduate studies through one of three programs.

A Canadian delegation will) try to sell the idea to American| members at the Steelworkers' international convention in At- lantic City next September. The proposa! was passed overwhelmingly at the opening of the union's two-day. Cana- dian policy conference after a resolutions committee vetoed suggestions from Toronto, Hamilton and Oshawa locals for an all-Canadian strike fund. Most of the 300 delegates favored a joint strike levy on the 120,000 Canadian and 880,- 000 American members of the union, References to Canadian au- tonomy met with an angry re- tort from Larry Sefton of Tor- onto, director of District 6. "This convention shouldn't) fall into the trap of thinking that autonomy will solve ail our problems," he said. 'INCREASES PRESSURE' Some of the best Steelworker contracts in Canada had been won from companies which op- érated on both sides of the bor- der, allowing Canadian and U.S. locals to bring collective pressure to bear on employers. Mr. Sefton said Canadian- owned' steel companies are great advocates of Canadian tutonomy for the union. They wanted to dilute the strength of the Steelworkers Union. "I'm getting a little tired of this petty procedura! guff about Canadian autonomy," he snapped. John Morgan, from the Steel Co. of Canada plant at Hamil- ton, said there is an urgent need for a big strike fund suf- ficient to support a major Ca- nadian steel walkout. Britain To Get "Breathing Spell"| LONDON (cr } -- The Com- monwealth sanctions commit- tee, meeting behind closed doors Thursday, decided to give Britain a "breathing spell' to complete representations to South Africa before pressing her on further efforts to topple the Ian Smith regime in Rho- desia, an informant said. | The committee, under the) chairmanship of Canadian: High Commissioner Lionel Chevrier, is to return for another session within two weeks when Britain may be able to disclose the re- sults of her attempts to per- suade South Africa and Portu- gal to abide by economic em- bargoes against the Smith re- gime. | Chevrier said later he could| not disclose details of the two-| hour meeting. 777 Phone 723-0241 or 728-0192 PI's Two British Guiana Papers Take Partisan Stand By CY FOX GEORGETOWN (CP)--The death of one newspaper and the birth of another have made this garrulous capital of British Guiana an all-tab- loid town. Georgetown, a city of 100,- 000 population, seems to thrive on talk and rumors, all rendered with a Welsh-like lilt and vibrant with a pas- sion for politics Race and politics mixed to spark big disorders earlier in the 1960s in this country, lo- cated in northeast South Am- erica. Now British Guiana seems comparatively calm, but an underlying tension is still dis- cernible. The four daily newspapers here strike' the visitor as echoing the characteristics of a community braced for independence, which comes May 26. Recently a victim of rising costs and a variety of staff problems was the full - size Daily Chronicle, known for its opposition to the former government of Dr. Cheddi Jagan. When it died, The Chroni- cle's circulation was about 7,000, having dropped from a peak of 10,000. The paper was 85 years old, and leaves a survivor in the form of its Sunday edi- tion, which will continue to appear. AVOIDS STRONG STANDS All of British Guiana's daily Papers are based in George- town. The biggest of them is the Guyana Graphic,- owned by the same British company that controls the mass-circu- lation London Daily Mirror. The Graphic is by far the best produced of ali local dail- ies. It is not known for taking strong partisan stands in a country where journalism of- ten follows the pattern of bit- terly divisive politics. The Graphic's circulation is listed as 22,163. The paper's non - partisan- shin hae heen in evidence since the Mirror group, known as the International Corp., took it over in 1961. Its only rival in the morn- ing field, once the Chronicle, now is a tabloid known as the Guyana Star, started in early March by former em- ployees of the Chronicle as a co-operative venture. In the evening field, The Mirror champions the views of Dr. Jagan's People's Pro- gressive Party, a leftist group described as primarily at- tuned to the interests of the EARN UP TO $100.
