tw or iE!.i- 4 55' A Q. 5 5 Q EE ' 5:ll' O M095 THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE The Province of Alberta, lying between the prairies and the mountains, is a land of far horizons and challenging prospects in the physical sense. Its young men and women, perhaps as much as any similar group in the world, face great challenges in the spheres of education and of service to mankind. As we add to our knowledge in the fields of physics and chemistry, biology and history, agriculture and medicine, the horizons grow ever wider and the problems still unsolved grow larger in number and in scope. Knowledge, which once seemed about to fall into rigid compartments, is now spreading over the dykes like a river in flood and the student must seek to explore it in breadth as well as in depth. The biologist looks to the chemist and the physicist for an understanding of the living cell. The engineer calls for the utmost intellectual effort from the mathematician to help explore the reaches of outer space. The psychologist turns to experimental physiology to probe the secrets of human behaviour. In the social and economic fields the call to service on an ever broadening scale continues to be heard. Newly created nation states in the far corners of the world look to us in Alberta to accept their young people in our schools and universities for training and education. Perhaps more important still, they seek the energy and talents of our graduates to help them create the conditions in which their people can be fed and clothed and housed, and ultimately be joined together in an organized and viable society. The students who appear in this yearbook will share in the work to be done on a world wide scale throughout the coming years. We wish them well. Loa,tru7JQ Aw.. Walter H. Johns, President
