B.C.: Jack Archibald is working at the Peterborough Automotive Supply Co.: Gordon Duncan at the Quaker Oats: Alma Rutherford at the S. S. Kresge Co.: Kay Lacy is at the Western Clock Co.: VVilliam BIcFadden at the De Laval: Pearl Hout at the Au- burn Mills and Harry lllarsh at the Johnson lN'Iotor Co. The editors are pleased to present a letter each from two very popular alumni. now at Varsity. They are from Gladys Carvolth, former Princeps Alumna and Harold Botniek, president of last year's Students' Council. TIE.-KR EDITOR: Writing letters used to be a bore but now I find it a very Hne excuse to keep from studying. Not that the work isn't interesting-it is! That seems to be tne only thing that makes it possible to do even a fraction of what is assigned to us. Of course, no one ever attempts to do it all. In spite of all the time the professors expect us to put on our work there are lots of chances to try out for different teams. You can imagine that., after all the fun we had in the P.C.V.S. athletics, I haven't let any opportunities pass. Right now a stiff neck's making me feel very sorry for myself, but that's only be- cause I used it to stop someone in a hockey game tonight. Occasionally a hockey stick is useful in a game. too. Basketball is over now, but while it last- ed my picture of last year's team was quite an inspiration-unfortunately an inspiration wasn't enough but it was fun, Being in residence adds a great deal to university life. Needless to say one's ego suffers a bit, running to answer every time anyone in the upper years shouts, 'lFreshie,'g that is, running to answer if no one else can be persuaded to. and I manage to hold my own quite well. Itis all in very good spirit so that the Year System works very satisfactorily. Actu- ally I haven't as many duties to perform as some of the others in my year because I live with four other girls on the thi1'd floor of one of the houses. There are only three rooms, rather like a penthouse, Hire-escape serves as a roof gardenl. and this floor is called Freshies' Heaven. because no one else wants to climb up the stairs: just the same we aren't angels. I said that one's ego suffers a bit. Thcre was a picture in a school magazine of the way a girl felt before she went to college. at least six feet. and afterwards. just barely visible. In reality it's not quite as bad as all that. After all. I find that in studies and recreation we are pre- pared extremely well at High School. It seems to be quite easy to get adjusted and even doing that is enjoyable. I'm quite sure that anyone who had any of the school spirit which is so characteristic at P.C.V,S. would find themselves well-fitted to join in all col- lege activities. Best wishes for a most successful year- book. GL.ADX'S CARvor.'ru. DEAR EDITOR: This is most embarrassing. You see. when I was asked to contribute to your noble publication. I immediately deter- mined to jot down a few choice extracts from my dia1'y of college life. But now, my dear editor. after an extensive search through 1ny belongings. and after a rigid cross-examination of my room-mate. I find to my sorrow that I have neglected to keep such a diary. How I should have forgotten such an important item is en- tirely beyond my OXVII somewhat meagre powers of comprehension. Possibly a few do's and don'ts for embryo freshmen would be of interest to the student body. To begin with. bring with you your upper-school notes. It's surprising how easily even a college stu- dent can forget rules and formulae. And then, dispel that illusion that professors are absent-minded. They have painfully remarkable memories. Their only claim to peculiarity lies in even toying with the
