14 Years Ago at Capilano College September 25, 1972 END OF LONG STRUGGLE After 14 months of applications, submissions, letters, etc., the College has finally received notification of the official registration of our “CC" symbol through the federal Trades Marks Office. Our "CC" has now been formally gazetted in all its blue splendor. This means that the College is protected from anyone else using the symbol (especially for commercial purposes) without our expressed written permission. CAPILANO COLLEGE REGISTRATION POT I am sorry to announce that the Pot has been "fixed" again, and as a result, the winner is Mr. Harold Kirchner, Dean of Career Programs, I hope that you will be suitably thanked for your generous contribution to Mr. Kirchner! We are now open for suggestions from the floor as to exactly how the $22.00 should be utilized! The correct figure for the 1972 Fall Term is 1418. Mr. Kirchner won with the figure of 1432. Karl Kobylansky was the next closest with a guess of 1444. October 2, 1972 CAPILANO COLLEGE PROMENADE CONCERT AGAIN DELIGHTFUL Last Tuesday evening the Mathers Centre gymnasium was once again practically full for our second Prom Concert with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. In spite of a rather bold and noisy program (Beethoven's Egmont, Mendelssohn's 4th, Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet Suites) and a lapse into a medley of Leroy Anderson, an obviously turned-on orchestra and the informality of it all delighted the audience of children and adults of a-1 ages. It was also one of the first Vancouver appearances of the young Japanese conductor Kazuyoshi Akiyama who is beginning his first season as music director. He was at least partly responsible for sparking the orchestra. SEE WORK OF THE COLLEGE'S RESIDENT PLAYWRIGHT Three Canadian one-act plays to be presented at the Meet Market (67 Lonsdale, North Van) will include A Glass Darkly by Reid Gilbert. The dates are October 6-8 and 13-15. The series is presented by the Chamber Theatre group. COLLEGE COUNCIL MEETING OF SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 Physical Planning: In relation to the College's physical facilities development of the next five years, the Council agreed that North Vancouver Secondary School would not be purchased at this time, that Lynnmour would develop as the core centre, that a centre would be developed at Cypress in response to needs, and "learning resource islands" would also be created in other areas as needed. Faculty Presentation: About -0 faculty had an interesting dialogue with Council from four to five thirty p.m. The faculty organized their concerns into three main areas: 1. Faculty (and student) representation on College Council 2. A different internal College approach to F.T.E. to enable the faculty load to become four sections. 3. Use of the projected budget surplus for faculty salaries. Most people - 80-90% sit on incorrectly adjusted chairs today. Follow these simple ‘rules until a correctly adjusted chair ‘ becomes a good habit. 4 ~~ 1. You can adjust 2, most gas lift cairs & while sitting in it. The correct sitting height is when the highest point ___ “4 of the seat is just = below your kneecap. Stand in front of the chair and check the height. @ 2.8 2. The seat must not press against the underside of your thighs. Major blood vessels and nerves lie so close to the surface of your legs here that they can easily be subjected to harmful pressure. 3. Sit with the lower part of your legs perpendicular to the floor. The clearance between the front edge of the seat and the lower part of your legs should be roughly as large as a closed fist. 4. Now adjust the back. Loosen the vertical adjustment controls. Hoid the upright while you adjust the back of the chair against your own back. The back of the chair should be located so that it supports the intermediate lumbar region. When you sit ina relaxed position, the back of the chair must prevent your back from collapsing. 5. When the chair is correctly adjusted, adjust the height of the desk, if possible. Ail FFP desks are vertically adjustable. A sound rule of thumb is that the height of the desk should be on a level with your elbows. If you have a typewriter or terminal, your elbows should be ona level with the middle row of keys. 8 ~
