GARDEN, Principal I have been asked to write a Foreword to this interesting record of Mount Royal College in the year 1946-47. This year marks a milestone in the life of the College and in the lives of many of us. World War II is slipping into history. The College halls are crowded with those who have served with the armed forces and are now preparing themselves for the greater task of creating a world of Peace. They are a fine group we are all proud of the work they are doing. The establishment‘of a Faculty of Engine¬ ering has added greatly to our enrollment and widened the service that Mount Royal College is offering to the youth of southern Alberta. When all the factors are taken into consideration I think it is safe to say that this has been one of the best years in the history of Mount Royal College. Many of you will graduate from the College, some to take their places here. Remember that this is a good world and we can make it better. It can be filled with ' happiness and you can find your place ready to meet the opportunity. As another year becomes apart of the history of Mount Royal Colle ge it is my hope that it is not unworthy of those who have gone before and in some small measure, at least, it may be equally worthy of the future for which we dream and hope and plan. Ye that have faith to look with fearless eyes Beyond the tragedy of a world at strife, And know that out of death and night shall rise The dawn of ampler life: Rejoice, whatever anguish rend the heart, That God has given you the priceless dower To live in these great times and have your part In Freedom’s crowning hour, That ye may tell your sons who see the light High in the heavens—their heritage to take— “I saw the powers of darkness take their flight; I saw the morning break.” —-Owen Beaman 5 Mount Royal College Administration Staff and Faculty -fitti r ■ Is if PJ HUGHES ATTWOOD M.; I IJPjfv Varshicom Staff Fred White Howard MacDonald.

Behind this august portal slumbers (or lumbers) legendary figures of that golden long ago. Can that door be opened? Even by “you-know whom?” Yes! Let’s peek in. The lock “goes damnable hard”. We must have it fixed. But now we are in! In a row on each side of the room are little stands and a chair to each. Here are concocted the mental toils of the thirsty slaves without, the myriads thirsting for knowledge. Here one sees calendar (overrun with lush beauty), ash trays (over¬ running) and teachers (run over). Lying on a desk a baton wearily exposes its cork tip and gives a musical air to the place; standing by the window a sonometer adds dignity and grace to the room; lolling on a window sill an old pipe, redolent of the “dreamy weed”, adds something too. The view from the window also intrigues. To be specific is to be prosaic, but what one can see from that orifice could only be seen on a March day in Calgary—it is all the re—every huge “blob” of it. Verily it is a very romantic place reminiscent of that fabulous cave of Ali Baba and his 40 thieves. The thieves are there too, many of them, now, uncomfortably near 40 but they rarely speak of that. The short and tall, thin and not so thin, all, congregate there. They speak of many things— of Caesar and hormones, of life and death, of; plays and players, of lines, angles and curves (especially curves). Here one can find all one seeks. If Romance—the flash of tender smile, the gaji glance from roguish eyes, the strut and creak of ponderous muscle—all, all are here. If Knowledge—The roll of the ponderous bear¬ ings, as mighty cerebrum unfolds, thunders in one’s ears. If Comradeship—Here can be heard the scottisli bur-r-r, the English “a”, the welsh “catch” and “the angels song”—all, all can be heard here. And as we gradually, silently, reverently, withdraw, we feel perversely unmathematical and say to ourselves that something has been added in “Zero minus one”. S ' � =5 The year that Richard opened the Door, but found that Kilroy had already left, is almost over for Mount Royal College. The impact of tue veteran-student was felt as strongly nere, as in the larger provincial universities. Enlarged to include three of the ex-army huts, Mount Royal absorbed tnem, and yet kept personalized teaching at a maximum. This policy was a great benefit to the Vets, who found that getting back to studying was a real job, after their experiences of tne last six years. It is greatly to their credit, that these men have the foresight and ambit¬ ion to carry on their studies to fit themselves for the post-war world. A new vocabulary of service terms nas now taken a prominent place in... most students’ speech. Professor and teachers are now “Jokers” and “Wallahs”. “Gen” is picked up by everyone, and there are few students who have not “had their time” on some detail. It is doubtful it this meets the approval of the English jokers: -sorry, teachers but it is now a definite part of the education offered at the College. Yes, it has been an eventful year, with new friendships made and old ones renewed. Our Athletics have been very successful, and all clubs and organizations have flourished in the light of such a large student body. This yearbook is printed in the hope that it will remind you of many pleasant memories and friendships made at Mount Royal College. 12 University 13 Claresholr WAYNE AMUNDSEN (Munsen) Theme Song of a Pre-Dent—-“You dent ' em ... I’ll fill ’em. Wayne’s interests are in sports—baseball, softball and track. RALPH ‘ ARCHY” ATKINSON Carbo A real morale booster around M.R.C. Archy 5 foot— of solid sunshim manages to keep all the world a song. Of course we won’t mention a his methods—but pestering “Stew” is one of them. F. M. BARKE Calgai A physicist who needs a psychiatrist. He can’t pronounce it, but I ■ ' sounds big enough for Fred to handle. A warning from the Sylphs- “Beware of all, but most beware of man”. His barke is worse than h bite. JACK BARLASS Believe No. 1 Dream-Boy “Barley” hails from Bellevue, and is another promisir, medical student. He only wishes that French proved as interesting i hockey—and a certain cute little nurse. MAXINE BARTSCH (Cuddles) Calgai Proposing to follow a commendable Social Service career, howevi. Max has such a lovable nature that we fear it will prove social 98% an career 2%. Here’s wishing you success in passing—or in finding a man who has. AMBER BEBBINGTON Calga Amber spent most of the school year commuting between here an Edmonton. Was just auditing the course this year but hopes to go 1 University next year. R. F. BELL Calga This blonde “engineer-to-be-he-hopes” goes by the names of “Dill or “Single”. His pet hobby? Why, pestering Bobyk, natch. . J. DAVID BLAZOUSKE (Jonsey) Calga “ Jonsey. Jonsey. give me your answer do, I’m half crazy over this Latin 2.” A very sharp lad this, practically can speak the Latin language. Takii an Arts degree—but this is no doubt just a start. BRUCE BOBYK Canine This is Bruce’s second year at Mount Royal College which probatl accounts for his good marks in his Engineering course. CAURINO BOMBARDIERI Calgf Chick is taking a B.Sc. [course, hoping to make alchohol cheap than Johnny Walker does. Blows a mean horn as a hobby. P. A. G. BOURREE This dark, good looking boy ran into illness during the last term, has decided to withdraw and to try again next year. Good luck, Al. J. B. BOWRON Calgi This likable chap has made up his mind to be an Electrical Engine i Was a star in the Bowling league. 14 DAPHNE BOYD Calgary Heading for a Library School after getting her Arts degree. Is an equestrian and likes to skate, but, natch, her main interest is reading. M. F. BRADFORD (Mel) Oyen With no time for nothin’ but droolin’ and schoolin’ and I ' ll never give up as long as they’re teachin’. Mel will undoubtedly be a resolute electrical engineer—sooner or later. (This boy is developing character to squelch his personality.) BOB BRANDER Lethbridge Tall handsome Bob should go a long way in University—whether in class or out of class will leave to your guess. He comes from the “Southern City” and plays a mean kind of Badminton. WESTON BROOKS Calgary Figures the only way to stay on the right side of the law is to practise • it. Cartoonist par excellence. What he doesn’t know about Poly Ec fills Mclsaac and Smith. F. M. BROCK Calgary Frank practices on Bandy Burton’s horn to get in shape for Gabriel’s. Such talent. This boy should go a long way—if the neighbors don’t have an ear for music. In his spare time he studies engineering. NORMAN BUNN Norm is heading for an Engineers degree. It was quite a blow to the girls here when they found out that he was married. A quiet sense of humor and a lot of friends, that’s Norm. EDWARD BURKELL Hanna Ed is another of our hockey and baseball enthusiasts. His applied science course keeps him busy most of the time. Guess he erlly wants to be an engineer. H. CHANNELL (No. 6) Innisfail Some feel that here is the true L’il Abner, others think not; he is taking Petroleum Engineering—what do you think? FRANK CLUTTERBUCK Calgary An applied science lad who is heading for Petroleum Engineering. His cartooning is the nearest thing to Disney’s work to be seen in Calgary. LAWRENCE COTTRELL Calgary Laurie wants to be a teacher. A sports minded chap who plays an outstanding game of tiddley winks and dominos. Spends most of his time with another ex Navy type, Stan Norris. R. H. CRONKHITE New Dayton Bob is one of those hard working engineering students. When he isn’t at his homework he takes a serious interest n Dick Tracy. Bob also likes a good game of softbad. EILEEN CROOKES Grey, Saskatchewan This clever little miss with that wonderful smile is headed for the lab. She and her twin cause us to wonder sometimes what is the matter with our eyes. Music is her hobby. 15 Calgary H. R. DAVIES “From Borden to boredom”. When not at school, is at the “office”. Hank has plans along engineering lines—natch: Berkeley California will gain what M.R.C. loses—who; gets the change? ROBERT LOUIS DEANS (Phoebe) Vulcan] Bob’s favorite pet peeve is allotting eight hours a day away from bed to be an aeronautical engineer. His pastime seems to be “Carmie”, his] phobia classrooms. RUSS DOTEN Edmontor Russ gets his exercise at Penley’s. Usually Friday nights with s brunette. Right Russ? Petroleum engineering is his aim. J. E. DONOVAN Calgary “And still they looked and still the wonder grew How one small head could carry all he knew . Jim is planning to continue in Honors Physics in Edmonton next year. Will undoubtedly ask enough questions to get there. JACK EDGAR Calgarj “T’would be a shame to neglect one’s education by too much study. In Arts and Science. Coffee and crokinole keep this boy on the bit ] Heard saying: “The shades of night were falling fast, but I got a good! look just the same.” ALLAN EDWARDS Calgarj Allan is the brain of the Chem. class much to the despair of some ol our friends. On his way to Law. Perhaps he and Langridge will sleed on a different “Bench” in a few years. E. G. EVANS Calgar An eager beaver who is working through his Pre-Med course in fin] style. Is a “bottle sorter” par excellence. H. A. (Fearless) FOGARTY Turner Valle, “I’m no’ the man I should be, Nor yet the man I could be,”—but don’ l put the blame on the Irish. Hal is going to be an engineer and may gi; over to the American Side next year. CALVIN FRANKE (Cal) Calgar] “Here about the labs I wander, nourishing a youth sublime. With th fairy tales of science and the long result of time”. Cal has his heart se on Petroleum Engineering (and also on something more interesting:) If all goes well he will continue studies in the States next year. We wisl him success all around. BOB FREEBORN Calgarj Bob has his heart set on being a chemical engineer. Well, good lucl Bob, Golf and baseball are reportedly his interests but we suspect til girls are closer to the truth. H. J, GRAHAM Regia This young fellow tells us that his main ambition is to be an engine] although he doesn’t specify which branch. His spare time is taken uj with boxing and swimming. STAN GRAHAM Calgai We didn’t see much of Stan this year as he threw in the sponge !■ Christmas. 16 BERNARD GRIFFIN -BEALE Calgary “Barney” the “Master Mind” of Poli Ec is full of ambition in his flaming (Not Imperial Oil either) career in B.A., B.Sc. (Eng). A likeable chap with an easy manner add a de-luscious blue sedan. Barney still finds time for swimming, archery, hiking and his hobbies. LEN GROVER Hanna We understand Len plays forward on the hockey team. He hopes to be one of those lucky fellows with a B.Sc. after his name one of these days. N. HANNAH Calgary Tried all year to keep ahead of his brother in the Applied Science course. We wish you the best of luck. LLOYD HANNAH Calgary “Mechanical Mind” Hannah is another prospective engineer. Quiet, unassuming Lloyd should go a long way in his career, if it’s hard work that counts (and smiles). JACK HARVEY Calgary Jack’s goal is chemical engineering. He is another one of the vets trying to combine one year of marriage with one year of University. LLOYD HARVEY Calgary Lloyd is one of our local products who will go a long way in engineering. He tells us that his hobbies are hockey and wood-work. Other than that we don’t know much about him. DOROTHY HAYHURST Calgary This blond lass has a future career as a lab technician. Dorothy won the R. B. Bennett scholarship last year. Take a hint fellows, she can really knit, and I’m not kidding. CLIFFORD WILLIAM HERGOTT (Maestro) Calgary “By and by there’s the travelling doctor. Gives pills, lets blood, and pulls teeth . Aside from working at this proposed Medical career of his, Cliff can really tinkle the ivories. Perhaps if scapulas bother him later—Hogie Carmichael can use him. DOUG HORNBY Calgary Doug is taking Civil Engineering with a new twist, soil mechanics. We don’t know what it is like but here’s luck—Doug. JACK IRVING High River Another Pre-Matric graduate who is doing well in his Applied Science course. LYMAN GRANT IVIE (Carman) Lethbridge Carman’s “pin-ups” make Petty’s look like something out of the Neanderthal Age. A surgeon he will undoubtedly be if he keeps on the way he is doing now. P. E. JEAL Calgary Another of our applied science students who will be demanding his degree in a few years. Electrical is his forte. Wed, best of luck Phil. 17 J. E. JENKINS Twin Butte Working to be a “Sawbones” the hard way through a B.Sc. With a good record at Pre-Matric behind him, he should do well. DON JOHNSTON Vulcan Coming from Vulcan and freshly out of the airforce blue, we feel Don is still an airman at heart, only now he’s learning the technical angle of the business in his engineering course. Skating and ball claim Don’s 1 extra hours—or at least some of them ? ? ? ? ? BOB KEIR Calgary Our friend Bob hasn’t given out with much information. However from here and there we understand he aspires to be an engineer and is a real student. DON KENNEDY Calgary An up and coming lawyer. Enjoys Pol. Ec. as a refreshing forty winks. An ardent basketball player for the juniors. Don enjoys life, and we enjoy him. G. D. KERMACK Calgary Draws pictures in Zoo—but they aren’t dog fish. All set to be a chemist j Plays basketball for the House League. He and Barke expect to develop j a process for making sugar in their own little lab someday. CHARLIE KNIGHT Calgary ( You never learn anything if you don’t ask questions) Is a prominent figure around M.R.C. and a very capable social convenor as well. With that Casanova smile and winning personality, particularly to “You know who”, he’ll make a very dashing doctor some day we hope (and so does he). NORMAN KNOWLES Calgary This red haired feilow is one of our Science studes. He likes hockey i and bowling and we also understand he can really pound out a mean j tune on the piano. CALVIN LANG Cardston Cal finds that Zoo course quite fascinating—does not seem to notice , the other attractions around the College. A very conservative student— the one most likely to succeed. B. E. (7 am wishing I am home in my bed) LANGRIDGE Calgary Langridge and Edwards seem to be fighting their way through this year with great success—one sleeps while the other listens. Langridge is one of our few future legal minds. WALTER A. LAWRENCE Calgary Walt has definite ideas on the past, present and future too. Hopes to be an Electrical Engineer in Edmonton (what’s wrong with Calgary ) With ambition and curly hair he should be well away. GIL LAYCOCK Calgary Gil is registered in applied science faculty, and says if everything goes well he will be in Edmonton next fall. Wherever there is a hockey or baseball game you can find this young man. J. D. LIND Granum A sharp lad who is going to dabble in dentistry. He should amalganate with Amundsen on writing “The Lives of the Gumbo Lancers”. 18 FRANK (Math Lab) LOEWEN Calgary Enrolled in the Faculty of Education but doesn’t know why. Never seen to take notes, yet comes through ' with the goods in exams. KEN LOUDEN Calgary A little fellow with lots of everything else. Ken plays no mean game on the badminton court and just plain courting (so we hear). He plans to go to Bible School someday. Better start getting in shape, Ken. , , W. L. LOVE Calgary Plays the sax in the symphony orchestra. Can be seen smoking that pipe of his when he comes now and then. BOB (The Body) LOW Calgary Still waiting for ships, that not only don’t come in, but never leave England. Concentrates on growing a high forehead to look intelligent and impress clients when he says “I think you’ve got a case”. C. D. LYTH Calgary This red haired boy will be in Edmonton next year for certain. Mean¬ while he is registered in Applied Science here. He is too busy to have sports or hobbies he says. A. MACCALDER (Al) Black Diamond To be a Petroleum Engineer, and make big time in the old home town of Black Diamond. We feel confident he will succeed in his ambition. S. P. MACKAY (Stan) Warner A man’s a man for a’ that”. Stan is noted for growing a new black moustache and those Science books galore. K. MADSEN Calgary Here we have one of our future young engineers. Next year should see him in Edmonton Says he has no sports or hobbies but we know better. PATRICK (The Brain) MAHONEY A very sharp lad and our valedictorian. Aspiring to the greatest of all professions—Law: But remember—-’No matter how thin you slice it, it’s still Mahoney:: AVARD SEFTON MANN (Seftie) EckviUe Seftie, for something new anck sparkling different, is taking Engineering Also one of “the sleepers” of the dorm, and in this respect vies with R. L. Deans in pounding the mattress. May tne best man win. Nice lad. N. MARKERT Ensign This boy is one of those fortunate people who doesn’t mind his setting up exercise every morning. Reports say he really enjoys it. Is enrolled in MARC MATHERS Calgary Marc, “the man with that flashy plaid shirt, that hits you like a red light” is better known as “Doc” around the College. He hopes, among other things, such as passing, to head south—and he skiis too. DON McALLISTER Calgary Already carries his brief case in preparation for his ambulance chasing career. A hard working citizen who should go a long way. Maybe even up to Edmonton. A. F. McCRIMMON Sylvan Lake Sandy figures on majority in Chemistry. Quiet and likeable, he is one of M.R.C.’s hardest workers. DOUG McDOUGALL Calgary A real sportsman, Doug capably manages the M.R.C. hockey team. He finds it quite a job keeping himself in one piece, but then he has his Arts and Science course for a sideline which he finds relaxful, don’t you Doug? ? ? ? ? DAVID McKILLOP Calgary This popular fellow always has an appropriate remark ready. Dave has entered the Science faculty and is headed for B. Sc. in Forestry Engineering. He is a fine bowler and also handy with a rifle. ERNIE MEINDERSMA Lacombe Ernie is taking a B. Sc. and hopes to be up at U. of A. next year. Ernie also plays a mean game of soft ball. CLAYTON MILROY Edmonton “Hairless Joe”, is another fellow who is working towards an engineering degree. When he graduates he plans to retire and take up model building. JACK F. MOORE Calgary Mine-chaser Moore is also in the get rich quick faculty—Law. Interested in skiing and lawyers’ secretaries. JIM MURDOCK Calgary Hamish Murdoch, one of our more ardent female psychologists (and who is better suited to the job than he ? ? ? ?) Is pursuing an applied science course on the side. We wonder whom he’s going to apply it to ? ? ? A dreamy dancer, Hamish is also well-known in gymnastic circles around STANLEY NORRIS Cornwall, Ontario Junior is enrolled in the Education Faculty. Says he will join the navy if he doesn’t get through but his marks and his Frau will probably avert this. S. O’CONNOR Calgary “In idleness alone is there perpetual dispair”. A foine broth o’ a girl—Sals a gal with a well developed mind, pers¬ onality and anatomy with her flaming hair and bright conversation causes that big, dark swashbuckling hunk of male charm to drool. Oh I wonder what’s going to become of sally. R. A. ORR Calgary Bob will be satisfied to just be any kind of an engineer. We think that is good enough too. The frozen north nas aroused his interest in skiing and M.R.C. his enthusiasm for basketball. T. B. {Consumption be done about him) PARKER Calgary If you know Ben—no explanation is necessary. 1 If you don’t—no explanation is possible. An aspirant Petroleum Engineer and if all goes well is Oklahoma bound next year. 20 A. POLSKY Calgary Flattered us by leaving Edmonton after a month for “The Prison of Chillon” (M.R.C.), He is quite satisfied here being in Pre-Med, and we hope he won’t have to overstay his visit. ROSS PIERCE Calgary This bright eyed boy knows all there is to know when it comes to basket¬ ball. Could be responsible for many of our victories in hockey too. Is enrolled in Science. J. PEAKE Calgary Johnny’s a familiar face at M.R.C. A budding engineer Johnny is apllying his science of friend-making to ail he meets. LYNN {I’ll sell the farm) PRICE Crossfield A future Chemical Engineer, planning to continue studies at U. of A. Until this year was a“track and field” artist—but this studying weaks GERRY REILLY Calgary This young fellow can be found among our numerous applied science students. His activities are numerous although he doesn’t specify exactly F. C. A. ROBINSON Vermillion And 0, a might man is he”. Robbie is taking that course over in the huts, where, if he comes through—the University of Texas if a big place, and is not, they pay a man in Yellow Knife just to live there. BERNARD ROE Calgary Taking a B.Sc., t lead to his chosen career of a “Pill Merchant”. Bernard’s blond, curly hair is a well known sight about the school. RICHARD ROE Dick hasn’t made up his mind but he thinks Law is looking to Mount Royal for most of his clients. good bet. Calgary He’s W. H. ROLSTON Calgary Bill is one of our fellows who will be building bridges in the future. His hobbies of hunting and wood-making should keep him busy in his I. W. SANDEN One of that rare species—the “school spirited” student. One of Mount Royal’s best bets for a successful engineer. CATHERINE SCOTT (Cathy) Calgary So sweet a face, Such angel grace”. A luscious blonde with many talents, noth the least of which is sailing through a “B.A.” all the way. A girl who should go far. JOE SHEININ Calgary Joe is looking for a way to get rich quickly. Maybe the boss’s daughter, eh Joe? His spare time is taken up with trying to coax a curl into his mop. 21 SAUL SHEININ Calgary If he graduates from Arts and Science he’ll be satisfied to just frame his diploma. Dabbles in Photography and gives Charles Atlas a little competition in building muscle. BILL SHERLOCK Calgary Doc is the boy you see coming to school on his “Iron horse”. Bill has never been known to take a nore in classes, but somehow he manages to get by. WILLIAM (BiU) SLIPPER Calgary Bill is hard on the road to the medical profession but he’s really hoping that it won’t interfere too much with his extra busy social life. Yes, and she’s a brunette too. Of course versatile Bill also finds time for music and playing ball. DAVID (Red) SMITH Coleman At Christmas left the ranks of the ‘confirmed, confined, conformed bachelors’. Is in Applied Science and is planning on attending U.B.C. next year. R. F. SMITH Nobleford This boy is headed for Edmonton to get his engineering degree, probably in electrical. He tells us that anything interesting does for his relaxation. JIM SPALDING Calgary Taking the Petroleum Engineering course. Plays g olf and rugby, but who wouldn’t with a name like that. Parties and merry-making are nis only hobbies. Why have any others MAURICE SPRING Calgary An ex-army chap giving his all to an applied science course. Any spare time goes into his house building hobby. P. E. START Coalhurst Start was taking an Applied Science course leading to his Engineering degree. Wears his hair like a scientist. G. C. STEFANICK Lethbridge “From trenches to benches Taking an Applied Science course. A wizard in Math., George is not making any plans for next year until he knows the outcome of this one. A. A. STODALKA Calgary This boy has come from Saskatchewan to be an engineer. Hope you like it here Ah Spends his oft afternoons down by the river seeing if he can get a free meal. MARY STOLTZ Silver Heights Tall, dreamy eyed Mary who comes from Silver Heights, Alberta is another real student. We wonder if she and the profs work in cahutes by those envied marks. Yum. Yum ; D. G. STROPLE New Brunswick Strople is headed for Oklahoma next year to continue his Petroleum Engineering. He doesn’t believe he’s working now as that’s his next abmition. How do you do it Strople? A versitile lad with a big smile. (P.S.—I’ve never seen him). 22 JIM (Dakota) STUBBS Calgary Heading for an Engineering degree. Says that he works hard all week but has a “Wales” of a good time on the weekend. EVELYN TAYLOR Pincher Creek A master mind in languages. Lives at the school and is liked by all, even the teachers. That’s what brains do for you folks, i ISRAEL SWITZER (Srooky) Calgary 0 where shall Israel lave his weary feel, And when shall Zion’s songs again seem sweetl” An ambitious boy who intends to continue in Honors Chemistry. If he fails to pass this year he expects his money back. KARL OVE SYLVEST Ponoka Taking pre-med, and with those trusting brown eyes he shouldn’t have too hard a time in developing that necessary bed-side manner. SARA LUCINDA SWARTZ (Sadie) Calgary “ ’Tis education forms the mind.” Sadie is taking an Arts course and plans to continue in Edmonton next year. She has the intelligence ' and the will to get there—and we are sure she will. J. A. TEELING DeWinton Enrolled in the faculty of Law. Spends much of his time trying to find a mistake in the Calculus book. Speaks his German lessons like a native— of Canada. M. S. TEMPEST Calgary Along with the rest of the Applied Science boys he spends his time over in the huts. When this is being written he is undecided as to what kind of an engineer is most likely to succeed—hope you pick the right one Murray. JEAN TROWSDALE Calgar Tall, slim, brunette Jean, we feel, prefers staying “Out late to stayin in late” and sitting in the “penalty box” to sitting in “Poli Ec”. Sh loves blonde men and “R.R.” are her favorite initials. Haven’t you guessed yet? JACK WAGNER Innisfail This likable chap is enrolled in the B.Sc. course. We hope his second year at Mount Royal will prove successful. D. C. WEBB Conrich “Red” is another Applied Science chap who shines in Drawing 4. JACK WEGH Calgary Smiling Jack is M.R.C.’s future Dr. Kildare, we hope. With a little pressure on all that “Personality Plus” he should soon have all his nurses sighing over him. Jack’s pet attractions are hockey, Penley’s and a cute redhead. FRANK WEST Halifax Frank has come a long way to get a taste of M.R.C. life. He is headed for an engineering degree. In his spare time he uses those bones to earn a little extra cash. 23 WALTER JOHNSON (Johnny) Vernon Hails from ‘Canada’s Banana Belt’—the Okanogan Valley. Plans ' on continuing either in Chemistry or Phvsics at U.B.C. next vear. Johnny ‘ has certainly been an asset to M.R.C.’s athletics, (maybe ' scholastically A. C. GIBBARD Okotoks Hopes to graduate into Alcoholics Anonymous and out of the Engineering Faculty. Also one of our few hard working, industrious types. F. T. WHITE Tut—not to be confused with King Tut) Calgary “Double double, toil and rubble, Gad this Year Book’s a lot of trouble’ • Fred figures he will obtain an Arts degree, then (because being exposed] to some good literature helps) a librarian course, and lastly try his hand] at the ‘old dabble writing’. If there is any degree of certainty left for the] future, ' ’all should go well with Fred’s plans. L. I. WICKENS Turner Valley When you see Murray Tempest look for this boy. He is a swell bowler| and also we hear an outstanding basket ball player. F. L. WILKIN Calgary This future engineer traded army life for school. He spends most of his spare time snow balling innocent people and trying to satisfy that huge appetite of his. ERSKINE WILLIAMS Calgary Ersk is another budding lawyer. Going to continue his studies at the ' U. of A. next year. Competes with Westie Brooks in sleeping away History periods. GEORGE ZIMMERMAN (Zeke) Ponoka Zeke is another of our hopeful M.D.’s. We hope that surgical touch ) improves some from his dog fish tactics. Is forever trying to wangle a way to the home fireside each weekend. ELEANOR JEAN RONN Calgary A little girl with big ideas. Taking commercial, high school and j university all at the same time is quite a job but she still has time for 1 swimming, riding and skiing. TED (Charpoy) BARROLL Calgary Heading for a degree in Petroleum Engineering. Practices drilling for oil with a brace and bit in his back yard between cold spells. G. J. BURNS Calgary One of Mount Royal’s few who have figured out what to do—is going to leave this school work to fly for T.C.A. T. V. COMPTON Cjastoj In Arts and Science.

He is going south next year (Latest news is that he has already gone south) JAMES M. DALEY He, Daley, pushes his baby carriage filled with books and baby is somewhere chewing on the English notes. An Arts and Science lady Jim is a devoted student, husband and father. H. C. FOGARTY (Herb) Calgary Taking Applied Science. Unfortunately Herb’s rarely seen around the school—must be applying his science elsewhere. The shy, silent, but not harmless type 24 CHARLES (Chuck) HAMILTON Calgary Chuck is really seriously considering being a doctor.

We wondered wnether we might not just as well be taking Reeling, Writhing, Mystery—ancient and modern, and those other subjects taught by the Old Crab at Lewis Caroll’s submarine school. The cliche of the year, that well known wail of each English student—“I haven’t got a clue!”—was the symptom of our affliction; the cure, we soon learned, is work, more work, harder work. We, who have been fortunate enough to take our first year varsity at Mount Royal College, found ourselves in an institution where the faculty can and does take a real interest in the work and progress of each student. As we leave M.R.C., we are grateful; but it will be the next few years, in the large universities, that will make us appreciate the value of the college in our transition from the service or from high school to university. A person of a poetic turn would have found plenty of inspiration for a lyric during the past weeks but, being of a somewhat prosaic mind, we’ll just mention a few themes. Thanks Gus. Your emporium is an integral part of Mount Royal life. Many is the time, having failed to become enthused over the Law of Diminishing Utility, we drowned our sorrows in your good brew, and many is the noon hour we spent in one of your booths in session with the local yokels. Thanks faculty, for a great sense of humor; for the jokes at which we had to laugh, in lectures, and the ones at which we could not help laughing, too. Thanks for your participation in our social functions, for the great melodrama, the music hall ditties of a certain Latinist and the very success¬ ful work of our Math instructor with the orchestra. Thanks Daisy, for letting us use the phone. Above all, thanks Mount Royal, for the new friends, now old friends. This year has shown us what we must look forward to before we gain the goal labelled “Success”. As we draw near that goal, we shall see the plainly printed subtitle “Duty”. If we properly use the privilege of uni¬ versity education, we shall perform our duty to the people of the world and, in doing so, shall attain true success. 26 1 I ■ A� J _ Jb 1 . - FT K §1 II jg2SIB B3HB3S3l 99 vigil? 1 k - | The Conservatory of Music (Including Department of Speech and Drama) In affiliation with 9 The Toronto Conservatory of Music Director MTRIL S. MOSSOP, A.T.C.M., L.T.C.L. During the year 1946-47 Mount Royal ollege Conservatory of Music has widened Jjwphere of influence and attracted students om all parts of Alberta, with some students pining even from points in British Columbia ad Saskatchewan. The Conservatory has ijoyed a most successful season, due in large leasure to the outstanding faculty of dis- pguished musicians and to the director, Mr. Hi Mossop. The enrollment of new students H been exceptionally large, which in itself | eaks well for the high standard of training ven at the Conservatory. In fact, Mount ti|jal College offers facilities for music students iual to those of the leading institutions of last urn Canada and the United States. I Students are prepared for the examinations j the Toronto Conservatory of Music; the BBOciated Board of the Royal Academy and pyal College of London, England: and also if the Western Board music examinations, filiated with the University of Alberta. Many judents enter for both the local and Provincial jical Festivals. During the past several i students of the Conservatory have gained high marks and commendation from out- ,s|ffliing adjudicators such as Dr. Staten, rJPeaker, Arthur Benjamin, Professor Col- igwood and others. The Mount Royal College Symphony Or- estra, under the able and expert direction of ayton Hare, has achieved the standard of any professional orchestras. During the rrent season the enthusiastic members of 3 fine orchestra have attempted and success- Uy played exacting compositions such as Hdelssohn’s “Italian Symphony’’ and Ungal’s Cave overture, Mozart’s “Jupiter fmphony” and Cesar Frank’s “Symphonic Imtions”. This season has witnessed the tuguration of a Theatre Symphonic series four concerts for the season, held in the and Theatre, to which the public has well lajnded. Talented advanced students of the ijRervatory are given the opportunity of maring as soloists with the orchestra at Hus concerts. Me Mount Royal College Junior Orchestra, (■directed by Clayton Hare, has made great ides during the past season, both in regard size and accomplishments. Besides giving afternoon concerts at no less than five of Calgary’s public schools, they also gave two very successful public performances, and gained high praise at the 1946 Musical Festival. This orchestra, which rehearses once a week, affords a very valuable means of training younger students in orchestral technique and ensemble playing. The immense value of ensemble playing cannot be overstressed; it contributes substantially to any student’s practical music¬ ianship, developing a keener eye, ear and general co-ordination. Among the many attractive features of great benefit to the music student at the Conservatory, are the frequent concerts and recitals that are given during the year in the college Audi¬ torium. Important works of the great masters, instrumental, vocal and ensemble are performed by students and professional musicians. These concerts and recitals are a real advantage to the student as he has the opportunity of hearing and becoming acquainted with many musical works, as well as the important experience of performing himself. Students from all grades are permitted to perform at special Students’ Recitals, and these are of inestimable benefit, giving an incentive to greater effort on the part of the student and also affording an opportunity of developing self-confidence, essential for a good performance. All possible provision is made for students, especially those studying piano, to gain exper¬ ience in ensemble playing. The periodic Students’ Ensemble Recitals feature two piano ensembles, violin duets and quartettes, and dialogues including scenes from Shakespeare’s Plays by the Speech Department. The Faculty also give a number of Chamber Music Recitals which have become increas¬ ingly popular with the general public. During the past season four excellent and varied pro¬ grammes were given, featuring piano quintettes by Brahms and Dvorak, and readings by members of the Speech Department. Two of these programmes were presented for the Cal¬ gary Women’s Musical Club at Wesley United Church. These Chamber Music Recitals make an important contribution to the musical life of Calgary and the public have attended in large numbers to hear the works of the lesser known composers as well as the masterpiece of the great. Special Theory classes are conducted by Mr. Leonard Leacock, for which there is a small charge. Aural training classes are conducted by Cyril S. Mossop, for which there is no charge to the student. 29 The following comprise the personnel of the Conservatory’s teaching staff. Cyril S.

Speech and Drama The Speech and Drama Department of Mount Royal College, under the direction of Leona F. Paterson has had a most active and successful season. The greatly increased enrollment has made it necessary to enlarge the teaching staff, and Mrs. Paterson has been assisted by Miss Wanda Dunkley and Mr. Harold M. Paterson. In addition to the excellent speech training offered in this department, students are prepared for both theory and practical examinations of the Toronto Conservatory of Music, and the measure of success has been most gratifying. Special emphasis has been placed on tj development of Creative Dramatics and Choi Speech among the younger students, and as result of the efforts in this direction two deligl| ful public performances were presented. Tlx were, “The Princess Who Dreamed Too Muc, by Elsie P. Gowan, and “Old Pipes and t Dryad,” by F. C. Bowen. The report of dramatic activities would i be complete without mention of the melodrai presented by members of the Mount Roi faculty, at the faculty dance. The skit v written by Mr. Owen Kelly, and the c included, Miss Alma Shaw, Miss Frances M; Mr. and Mrs. Ray Salt, Mr. A. Snowdon, } R. W. McCready. Mr. Kelly is also direct the one-act play, “Buddy” to be presen | later in the season. A recital by the speech students of Le Flegal Paterson and Wanda Dunkley was h in December, in the College auditorium. Re ings were given by a number of students at various student recitals which were h throughout the winter term. Thirty-eight students of the department hi registered for mid-term examinations in i Toronto Conservatory of Music speech dep; ment, and eleven students wrote the thd examinations in February 1947.

WORDS My Mother has the prettiest trick With words and words and words, Her talk comes out as smooth and sleek As breasts of singing-birds. She shapes her speech all silver fine Because she loves it so And her own eyes begin to shine To hear her stories grow. God wove a web of loveliness Of flowers and trees and birds But made not anything at all Sb beautiful as words They are as fair as bloom or air They shine like any star And I am rich who learned from her How beautiful they are. 30 Sports By DAVE TOMLINSON “Out of the dark and into the Light”—a very appropriate slogan for Mount Royal College, who, until this year, has usually held down the ’cellar position in shows of her athletic prowess. With the help of an exceptional school spirit, an enterprising staff, and a very efficient director, this year Mount Royal has emerged out of the valley of unknowns, and put herself on the list of heavy contenders for champion¬ ships. The highlights of interest for most of the student body and staff, have been Basket¬ ball, Hockey and Bowling in that order. HOCKEY Mount Royal set their sights on the Champion¬ ship and began a struggle with eight other well managed, well organized teams. Some of these boasted minor league players. Not at all daunted our boys struck out and very nearly won. As a matter of fact they clinched a berth in the playoffs, but due to a postponed game, were unable to continue. Mount Royal joined the intermediate city league, winning four games, losing three, and tieing one. Had fuller support been given to Doug McDougall, in his efforts to ice a championship squad, no doubt the team would have done a lot better. Twice a week the team .held practices at Mewata Rink, and, had the weather held could have enjoyed many more games. Calgary Intermediate Hockey League Stand- ng to time of Playoffs.

The team was captained by Mus Murdoch and the outstanding performers were sharp¬ shooting Ross Pierce, playmaking “Buck” Buchanan and nimble Murray Tempest, the backbone of the defensive. The team did much better than expected against the better practiced Bears and Dari- Rich. Mount Royal relying at all times on a great team spirit to see them through In the semi-finals Mount Royal outfougb Harold Brook’s Dari-Rich team in a fiecti three game series featuring a free-for-all in thej last meeting. The Bears managed to beat out Mount Roy in the finals in two straight games. Howeve these games were very closely conceded, and tb outcome was never decided until the dyir seconds. After this series the club went on into tn Provincial, intermediate playdowns. JUNIOR BASKETBALL The 1947 basketball season painted a brigl| picture for the Mount Royal Junior cage crei The team had an outstanding record of i wins mid 4 defeats. They won the Junior menj championship of Calgary and numerous exhiu tion games against the local high school team Mr. Mortimer, the team’s popular coach, shouj be given a great deal of credit for their succeg L. H. Siddons proved to be a very capabj manager. The team vras led by two stellj guards, Walt Johnson (captain) and Ja j Edgar a defensive stalwart. Don Kenned Bill Kienholz and George Cahoon were tj outstanding sharpshooters on the forward wa while Ernie Gare and “Olie” Jensen providJ staunch ref lacements. The juniors were extended to ' three games the city finals by the East Calgary Rees aJ showed great courage in winning the final ti games after dropping the opener by a slim ma gin. After winning the city championship the tea progressed into the provincial playdowns ini quest for the provincial title. BOXING This sport has proved very popular and tluj boys, at least, will compete for provincial howl in the Amateur ring. Mount Royal’s hopefj for the above mentioned match are Geo.n Hansen (lighweight), Keith Lake welterweigl and Paul Brosseau (light heavy). One exhibit! has been held which proved that good resd have been obtained by Mr. Siddons. The Boxing Club is fortunate in havi Mr. Siddons as a trainer-instructor. Prior the war he promoted amateur Boxing a during the war refereed all the inter-fori matches in the Shilo-Brandon-Winnipeg divisi His three sons were all boxers in the arr One, winning the Canadian title in 1940 a was runner-up for the Canadian Oversi title. Two of them represented the Combic Canadian Services team against the U.S1 team during the latter part of the war. 32 33 Sports - continued HOUSE LEAGUE BASKETBALL BOWLING CLUB Six teams have participated, 45 games com¬ pleted and the Playoffs are in full swing for the Cup and Crests.

The Grads and the Royals had 4 girls on each team with a Junior league player and one other boy to give a strong challenge to the 4 boys’ teams. It has highlighted all sports to date for 75 per cent of those participating had never played the game. After an amateurish start all settled down to play good ball. Incidentally the high point getter of the league was Maxine Bradshaw, captain of the College girls’ team. With the advent of an up to date gymnasium Mount Royal College should prove to be a home of basketball and all sports. Injuries have been few and far between, then only of a slight nature. Games for the most part have been played in the armouries on a cement floor which as a rule tends to deter the game on account of injuries. TENNIS It is hoped to have two courts in operation this year. A tournament will be held to keep interest among the student body. The Mount Royal Bowling Club was formec shortly after the start of the school year. Ill consists of twelve teams and approximatelj sixty members. Every Monday afternoon thes; hardy souls form a pilgrimage to the Olympii; Bowling Alleys, and there, while the pin boy quake in their boots, attempt to knock over thi elusive five pins. The whole club is run under the capabl guiding hand of Fred (‘two bits please’) Wilkins This is the lad who is responsible for leasing thi alleys, figuring averages, assigning alleys t( the teams, rounding up scores and money and the many other tedious jobs that go witlj a bowling club. The Bowling Club includes a general cross ; section of the College. Included are high schoo i students, university students, commercia; students and the staff. The staff (with Mil Salt giving a lecture on “The Advantages o Using Applied Trigonometry in Bowling” anl Mr. Snowdon uttering a few choice French colloquialisms at the pins) manage to hold thefl own with the students. Each team consists of a captain and fou i members. With the captain lies the responsibilit;! of seeing that his team all shows up. Also, a half-time it is up to him to give his team : “pep-talk” and encourage them to get mori “strikes” (after which he promptly goes up anl “blows a frame”) However, this is not hell against him as everyone is out for the enjoymen j of the sport and not merely for wins. When all is said and done, the Bowling Club provides j pleasant relaxation and inter-mingling witll fellow students. By REX HEITERS SOFTBALL AND FASTBALL This game should prove to be on par with Basketball. P.T. classes have already been playing indoors. It will be pushed to the limit. FLOOR HOCKEY Will be played in the Armouries on the Basketball court. A House League will operate immediately following the House League Basketball finals. Requirements for the game— felt puck, broom sticks 4 feet long, nets 3 feet by 6 feet, played as hockey with the same num¬ ber of players. Properly officiated this game will rate above all others. Rules will be strictly enforced, in which case injuries will be nil. Seven teams are expected to operate. FINAL NOTES ON SPORTS Mr. Siddons, Director of sports, expects great uprising in all sports with the advent o an up-to-date gymnasium. A carefully draw up schedule will be prepared to include all game in season—Boxing, Basketball, Bordenball, Badminton. Group games—Handball, Floo Hockey, Physcisal Training, Indoor Softbalj Tabloid Sports, Tug-of-War, Volleyball, Gianj Volleyball, Rope Climbing and Wrestling. Preparation for Soccer, Rugby, Track anl Field, Softball, etc., will also be carried outj Strict supervision to be carried out to kee;j injuries from occurring. So far only the odl sprain has been evident. A well prepare; program ensures all students of filling in thei j spare moments with healthful, clean, characte building sports.

Other people, not so Ogl minded or jovial describe it as an age of jbby soxers’ and ‘juvenile delinquents’; of izgTfiends’ and irresponsible young urchins’, e, ' the above described, bear the brunt of es®attacks and are expected to profit by the pMence of these people who have passed rdfeh this stage and therefore know all there to know about it. Some of us can see their awning, others cannot. We are living in a fast moving age, an age turbo-jet engines and atomic power, an age atjdemands a chance to forge ahead. Of utt this advance should be controlled but it ould not be curtailed. People try to retard is dvance by saying that it is not good and at we would be better off back in the Stone Bronze age. Science is making life more mfortable but some people still choose to ink that the world is nearing a state of sruption. T re are some who believe life is improving ismuch as our standard of living is higher an ft was twenty five years ago. Others look it in the financial light and see the glitter of actt fine gold—much more. Still others see that we are swiftly closing the international gap to a point where they will be on an international basis. We hope and think that we have the foundation of this in the U.N.O. However, because of the petty grievances of various nations, we are not forming a firm international understanding. What is youth’s place in this new world? The youth of today is the nope of the world of tomorrow. Within this youthful group we have the international organizers and leaders of tomorrow, the scientists, the medical experts, the spiritual leaders, the technicians, the laborers, and the rest of the people who look forward with confidence and optimism to a better world. Shall we the youth accept the challenge to work for the benefit of mankind? Many have said that the future rests with the control of the atom and better world understanding. The future rests with the youtn of today; the youth of this modern age; and they will determine the outcome of tomorrow. Perhaps it will be an Utopia, perhaps chaos—who knows? We, the youth of today, are not as ‘feather brained’ or ‘bone-headed’ as we may often imply by our actions. Our elders went through tne same stage as that through which we are now passing and they snapped out of it! So will we! The future rests with those who prepare for it. Youth of this modern age—Prepare! 47 The Kerby Memorial Building The Board of Governors of the College decided to proceed with the erection of the Kerby Memorial building at once as the accommodation is needed for our expanding work. It will be located at the corner of 7th Avenue and 11th Street West. The front will be directly opposite the Main building. The houses on this site are being moved off and construction will be under way in April. A contract has been given theHornstrom Brothers Contractors and they have promised the completed building by the summer of 1948. The Architects are Stevenson Cawston and Stevenson and they have designed a very beautiful building that will provide Administrative offices, Teachers’ rooms, Students’ common room and snack bar, Kerby Memorial chapel and fourteen laboratories and classrooms. Associated with this building (but a separate project) there is a modern Gymnasium with equipment room and director’s office. The building will be constructed of steel, reinforced concrete and faced with tapestry brick. It will be fireproof and one of the most attractive buildings in Calgary. It is being erected as a memorial to Dr. G. W. and Mrs. Kerby who were the founders of Mount Royal College. Dr. Kerby was Principal for over thirty years and the influence of his life of friendliness and goodwill is still felt around the College halls. 49 1 You Can’t Beat this Shopping Protection! The protection EATON’S provides for your shopping dollar is solid and real and sincere. It simply amounts to this: no matter what you buy at EATON’S, be it fashions or furniture, pins or pianos, you can have your money back if your purchase does not thoroughly satisfy you. That’s the straight-talk terms of the famous EATON guarantee of “GOODS SATISFACTORY OR MONEY REFUNDED” It applies to price, to quality, to value and performance, and is a sturdy safeguard for you against unwarranted price advances in these days of relaxing Government controls. It has been our principle of doing business since this company was founded in 1869 and in seventy-eight years of operation literally millions of Canadian shoppers have agreed that “nothing could be fairer.” ♦T CALGARY EATON C° w e S T C B M LIMlTEO ALBERTA I Open House November 15th, 1946 52 Social Highlights OPEN HOUSE Many parents and friends attended o,pen house at Mount Royal College Friday evening, November 15th, to view the college and see classes in operation.

With the Rhythm Makers music everyone enjoyed jitterbugging and waltzing. Refreshments of icecream, cake and coffee were served halfway through the evening and dancing continued until 12:00 o’clock. Thanks should be given to the high school for sponsoring this dance. SPORTS DANCE With a banquet held earlier in the evening the Sports Dance was a great success. Music again was by our school orchestra. The decorations in white and green were very sym¬ bolic of St. Patrick’s. Coffee, sandwiches and cake were served, at intermission and dancing continued until 12:00 o’clock and everyone enjoyed themselves. 53 Valentine Dance With the School Orchestra conducted by- Mr. Cumming, playing for the first time, many attended this dance.

After refreshments were served a skit was put on by Mr. Kelly, Mr. Snowdon, Miss Shaw, Miss May, Mr. McCready and Mr. Salt. This was hilarii and the roof was nearly brought down fi laughter and applauding. During the even! Betty Giddy and Bill Carr were awarded pri as Queen of Hearts respectively. Dana continued till one o’clock. 54 : The commercial class, sponsors of the Sadie Hawkins Dance set the pace of “Dog Patch” with the Sadie Hawkins race Friday morning and the dance at night.

And so I am going to suggest “Social Service” work and discuss it with you. First, one needs to have the proper training which is available at McGill University, University of British Columbia, and The Deaconess House in Toronto. Excellent courses are also offered at Bishop Creighton’s House, London England, and Hull House, Chicago in the United States. In this work there are many openings. There is “f amil y welfare” work,_ where one visits the poorer families of the district and assists them in every way possible; and ' there is “district visiting” where one visits from house to house in the district. There is “Dorcas work” which is the supplying of clothes to the poor and attending the physically weak. There is work which one must do in the prisons. There is also “police court” work with women and children. Homes are supplied for unmarried mothers and sub-normal children. An opportunity is given for those who are qualified teachers. Sometimes looking after discharged prioso ners combined with Red Cross work is assigned. Then there is “settlement work.” To do this one must live in the slums. Here you organize games for children after school-hours. Many are the difficulties one encounters. Bad housing is one of the worst things that tlJ| is. There will be many different types of peo; j those who are unintelligent on sub-norl whom no-one will employ. There is inadeqtvl hospitalization. This is very serious for raj I deaths can be prevented if care can be provii I In the slums parents will not always co-ope: I making it very difficult to prevent juvral delinquency. And there is the very sen problem of unmarried mothers. The res sibllity can rarely be placed and homes i I been provided fdr these unfortunate gj I The pensions for widows are not sufficient I no provisions have been made for those too yol to work or those who are unable to work, j To be able to do this work you shoulc j a person of svene disposition and not e discouraged. One should have a normal hea outlook on life and a cheerful dispositio absolutely neoessary. Records are kept of all patients and t a troubles in those organizations outside of church. The social service organizations J nected with the church does not keep ref ; because they feel that the people are coil to them in strict confidence. They find I more people come to church settlement hoi then other organizations. This social service work has been a gj help to the world, but we need many f workers, so that it may be carried on. _ —Agnes Gia 62 Editorial The appearance of a year book is generally regarded as the unofficial sign of the end of the school year. Memories are short, as the exams usually prove, and it is the Year Book staff’s duty to present a lasting record of the year’s work, play and student body. It was decided this year to incorporate a larger number of candid shots in the Varishicom than ususal, to achieve this purpose. We hope that this meets with your approval. It has been “Vets Year” at Mount Royal, resulting in an expanded campus, teaching staff, and student enrollment. The University section was predomin¬ antly veterans, who were wise in the light of their long absence from studies, to chose Mount Royal, with its smaller classes and more individual teaching methods, to resume their interupted studies. A sympathetic teaching staff has been a great help to these men (and Avis, our ex W.D.) in their pursuit of knowledge, degrees, and Sixty dollars per month. Varshicom’s staff join in wish¬ ing them good luck and good marks. So once again M. R. C. is relaxing its bulging walls to turn another group of graduates into a troubled world. Here is a point we should keep in front of us for the years to coiup. Regimented, mass, concerted action won the war, but, it is the individual, with trust in God, a genuine love for his fellow men, whatever their color or creed, and an educated free thinking mind, will win the peace.
