38 ACTA NOSTRA As in former years. O.V.C. has students from many different countries. This year. students come from Germany, Holland. Jamaica, Br. West Indies, United States. Latvia and Malaya. Of course, we have a few boys from out west. We have a great deal of rivalry between the East and the West. They were one up on us with the winning of the Grey Cup. We immediately retaliated by pointing out it was an Ontario boy who led the Grey Cup winners. Plans are now underway for the CDD- struction of a new gym. This gym will be one of the most modern in the province and so it's a chance for basketball players to make use of Colleges . We are also lo have a new Union Council Build- ing. which will be similar to Hart House at U. of T. In closing, I should like to say the O.V.C. offers a very good course in Vet- erinary Medicine, and perhaps we'll see a few of you here. Best of luck in those finals! Yours truly, Art Hackett. RICHARD MASON is studying at Ryerson Institute of Technology. Representing Guelph this year at Royal Roads. B.C., are PETER BRIGHT and PETER SCHOLZ. Representing Guelph at R.M.C. are BILL JARVIS and JIM MORWICK. The Editor, Acta Nostra, G.C.V.I., Guelph, Ont. Dear Mr. Editor: In response to your request for a few details of the life at the Royal Military College of Canada, I wish to submit the following comments for publication. At R.M.C., the life is very different from the ordinary life of a college student. As cadets, we rise at 6:15 every morning and start classes at B100 A.M. We have seven hours of classes each day, as op- posed to the usual five in high school. At 4:00 P.M. every afternoon we have a sports program, the sports including foot- ball, hockey, and the other usuals, as well as boating. The sports facilities here are excellent, the policy being to develop a healthy mind in a healthy body. The college itself is deep in tradition and gives many opportunities for close contact with the beginnings of Canada, The city of Kingston has many and varied places for recreation and relaxation. Com- bined. they present an atmosphere enjoy- able to all and yet conducive to hard work and diligent study. In closing, then, R.M.C. is designed to build men well-trained in scientific, social, and personal high standards, ready to make a success of the military or civilian life. We highly recommend the Regular Officers' Training Plan and a life at R.M.C. to any of G.C.V.I.'s future gradu- ates. Hoping we will see more Guelphites in our ranks in the future, we remain, Yours sincerely, W. F. Jarvis, J. F. Morwick. Two girls are enrolled in Hospital Schools of Nursing: VIRGINIA CORNELIUS at the Guelph General Hospital, and PAT LOWRY at the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto. 95 St. George St.. Toronto, Ontario. Dear Editor: Varsity has become my home, my pride, and my joy during the past few months, and it gives me special pleasure to tell you about it. I could not possibly tell you all about the University of Toronto, for it is far too large and complex. But I will attempt to tell you some of the things that I have encountered on my sojourn in Blue. Varsity is large! Everyone says so and I can only echo it. I am afraid it scares many would-be students away, I felt the same way when I came but now I find that I had nothing to fear. Although one does not meet all the students, one does meet just as many students as one would at a smaller university. Here, at Varsity, it would be impossible to count the clubs and activities that you are able to partici- pate in: Hart House is the home of dozens of these clubs and it can become your home too. These organizations are well developed and numerous,-for ex- ample, there are three French clubs on the campus. Scholastic-wise, Toronto has just about everything from Engineering to Anthro- pology. Classes are not too big and per- sonal anention is available for the asking. The work in a worth-while course is very heavy, but the interest takes away some of the pressure. I like Varsity. and I am glad I came here. We are surrounded by an infinite throbbing city with its varied moods and feelings, Difficult it is to become narrow- minded here. A lot of students from Guelph are here. Bruce Thomas and I are studying towards a Medical life and I think I can say we are both pleased with our course. You'll encounter many familiar people at Varsity and I am sure you'll be treated congeni- ally by all of them. I love University with its long high steps of gold and tall ambitious towers of ivory, and you will too. It is a tremendous change from high school days with a good deal of work involved. but it is the be- ginning of an experience with immeasur- able consequzcnces. On behalf of all Guelphites at U. of T., I want to wish you the very best of luck in your exams. Set your goal highg you will never regret it. We will be looking forv.'ard to seeing you in the fall of '5'l! Yours sincerely, Jack Inglis. NINA NODWELL and TERRY ILES studying at the Ontario College of Art.
