O 1953 3 VISIT OF HIS EXCELLENCY, THE GOVERNGR-GENERAL HE cadets of the Royal Military College were honoured this year to receive a visit, on November 27, from the Right Honourable Vincent Massey, P.C., Governor-General of Canada. Although he is by no means a stranger to R.M.C., it was the Governor-General's first visit to the College since his appoint- ment to the high office which he now holds, and his visit was eagerly anticipated by staff and cadets alike. After a tour of the College with the Commandant, Briga- dier Agnew, His Excellency attended a mess dinner given in his honour. That evening, in Currie Hall, he presented Lieut. F. R. Freeborn, R.C.E., with the Military Cross for bravery and coolness in the face of heavy enemy interference in Korea . Following the presentation, His Excelency spoke to the cadets on Education and the Officer . His Excellency's career has been a most distinguished one. Born in Toronto in 1887, he attended St. Andrew's College and the University of Toronto. After obtaining his Master's degree at Balliol College, Gxford, he became a lecturer in Modern History at the University of Toronto from 1913 to 1915. During the First World War, His Excellency was on the staff of Military District No. 2, and the end of the war found him working as Secretary, later Director of the Govern- ment Repatriation Committee. For four years C1926-301 he held the post of His Majestyfs Canadian Minister to the United States, and for eleven years C 1935-461 he was High Commissioner of Canada in the United Kingdom. Prior to his recent appointment, His Excellency was most celebrated for his work in the field of Canadian education. He has held several important positions in connection with Canada's cultural life and is himself the recipient of no less than twenty honorary degrees. In 1939, the Federal Government appointed him Chairman of the Royal Commission on National Development in the Arts, Letters and Sciences. The Report of this Commission, popularly known as the Massey Report, is a unique survey of the cultural resources of Canada and, as such, its potential inffuence upon the life and thought of the Canadian people will be felt for a long time to come. In 1952, as a climax to his brilliant career, His Excellency became the first Canadian citizen to be appointed Governor-General of Canada. Certainly, no one could be more deserving of this great honour. Due to his active interest in the field of education, His Excellency was very well qualified to speak on his chosen topic, Education and the OHICQF. The ulti- mate purpose of education for the officer is to make him the kind of person fit to show others what his nation is and why it must be defended. Such was the theme of his speech. The Canadian officer must hold complete confidence in all the institutions for which his country stands, he must be able to comprehend what is truly inimical to these institutions, he must be able to pass on this confidence and knowledge to his men. Education is the only agent through which this can be accomplished. 6'Excellence is the hallmark of the educated man . In a bilingual country such as ours, the necessity for excellence in the spoken and written word is obvious. Therefore, a comprehensive study of the humanities, in conjunction with the sciences, will give the officer his most potent instrument for leading and controlling his men. The cadets of the Royal Military College take this opportunity to express their heartfelt gratitude to His Excellency. We sincerely hope that we shall not have to wait too long to benelit again from his rare personality and long experience in the field of Canadian affairs. -No. 3368 P. A.

ANTHONY HAMPSON ST. CATHARINES CoI,L1-:c:1A'1'E INs'r1'1'U'i'1s Tony was born on Sept. 28 1930 in Manchester, England. I-Ie stayed long enough to pick up a thorough knowledge and love of soccer, cricket, boiled lamb and yorkshire pudding before coming to Canadal in 1941. During his collegiate car- eer he was president of the Stu- dent's Senate. He entered R.M.C. on a dominion scholarship, and his T four years have but increased his popularity and capacity for leader- ship. Tony has astonished professors and cadets alike since his recruit days with his ability to talk inces- santly during lectures yet compile a perfect set of notes and stand among the top three of his course: chemical engineering. Tony has a keen interest in athletics, and has been a mainstay of the senior soc- cer and basketball teams for the past two years. He is also noted for finishing almost dead last in the re- cruits obstacle race. Tony has a keen mind and an engaging person- ality. He loves all forms of non- sense and has participated in prac- . tically every skit which has been carried out in his four years. He l has great powers of concentration T and a great variety of natural tal- f ents. Thus he can, and does, direct all his energies toward achieving any goal which he sets himself. He T also has an insatiable love of movies of all types, some of the more swashbuckling productions being known by the rest of his class as '6Hampson epics . Tony has brought to his position of Wing Commander a sincere love of the College, a remarkable degree of common sense and a compelling, positive person- ality.

Ned has done notable service in swimming' and hockey too, especially in the latter where he not only played two years with the Seniors, but managed the Juniors as well. As a result of his athletic ability, Ned received an R.M.t'. Crest this year. During his summer training with the RCE, he dumbfounded his friends, after a. typical Mun- dell first summer, but going on the wagon in his second-creating panic in the Molson Breweries. His ability to sleep on or under beds after a party known from Vancouver to Toronto. Ned's possession of the Bermingham-Maclntosh Trophy, his participation in the recruits' Cake NValk and his position as Rczriefzv sports editor well illustrate the balance Ned has struck between studies and entertainment. This ability to have fun and yet carry out responsibility with a. clear-headed. com- mon-sense policy has resulted in his promotion to Cadet VVing 2 lfc and is his outstanding charac- teristic. Ned's future centres around matrimony. a Chemical lCng'ineering degree at McGill and a civy street career. There is no doubt that Ned will be a solid. and popular. success. GV. L. CJ No. 3134 C.S.L.

He brought with him to R.M.C. in 1949, an individual- istic personality and outstanding athletic talents. which he demonstrated in college football and basketball as well as inter-flight sports. By far his favourite recreation was sailing- or more accurately, sailing to VVolfe Island. Even the winter weather, which made sailing impossible. did not dampen this unnamed urge to go to Bear Island-so one night he and another adventure- some lad borrowed the R.M.C. fire jeep and drove across the frozen river. Unfortunately, Dave broke his leg playing football in his fourth year, and his winter activi- ties and academics suffered accordingly.

U NEWS GRADUATION 1952 UNE 2nd, 1952 was the date of the long-awaited first post-war graduation at the Royal Military College. The graduating cadets had come, in September, 1948 from nearly every province in the Dominion, some to Royal Roads for two years before finishing at R.M.C., and some to Kingston. There were many cadets for whom graduation was a big step in their service careers, and some of these are now with one of the three services. There were also cadets for whom graduation was mainly a step in their academic careers, and who are now attending universities across Canada. The Right Honourable Brooke Claxton, the Minister of National Defence. and the President of R.M.C., awarded prizes and diplomas to the cadets in Currie Hall, while a large crowd of parents, fiancees and friends looked on. Our class would like to thank Mr. Claxton for the sincere interest he has shown in us during our four years at the College. The arts students in the class were temporarily posted to their chosen service for the period between the official closing, in April, and the graduation. The engineering students remained at the College to pursue extra studies. Among other things, preparations for the graduation weekend went on through May, and it sometimes seemed as if the festivities had started with the closing. The weekend included an informal Cveryj class party, a picnic, the all-important ceremony itself, the June Ball, and a class dinner, to which were invited the honorary members of the class, and members of the staff. Lest it appear that the class had few serious thoughts, it should be pointed out that for twenty-four of the class of seventy-two, graduation meant a month's leave before embarking for Korea. These were the army cadets who elected to join the permanent force. The ex-cadets who are now in the navy and air forces are continuing their training on ships, stations, and at universities in Canada. To end this article without remembering the people who worked so hard to accomplish what may often have seemed a hopeless task would be extremely ungrateful. Therefore, to the staff we extend our thanks for the many times we had to be helped over the academic hurdles, our best wishes for a happy and successful future, and a parting admonition - remember - 4'You've seen wuhse, you've seen bettah, but not muchf, -No. 2835 C.

Review OPENING CEREMONIES 1952 As the Cadet Wing marched on the parade square on Saturday, Oct. 8 for the official opening ceremony for the academic year 1952-1953 everyone felt a difference from previous years. A serious note took the place of the usual care- free attitude. The familiar faces of those who had graduated only a few months before-those cadets who had ushered R.M.C. into a new era in its long and colourful history--were now gone. Some of them had chosen civilian life, most were in the services. As that famous figure, Brigadier J. M. Rockingham, C.B., C.B.E., D.S.O., ED., the Director-General of Military Training, took the General Salute and passed down the ranks carrying his well-known walking cane everyone could not help but think of those recent graduates who are now performing their duty half-way across the world in Korea. That they have carried on the glorious tradition of the College is readily apparent from the casaulties and the news accounts of their exploits. Upon the completion of the March Past the Cadet Wing formed a hollow square for the presentation, by Brigadier Rockingham, of prizes for the academic year 1951-1952. fThe Medals and Subject Prizes for the class that graduated in 1952 were presented at the Graduation Exercises on Jun. 2, 1952.5 Outstanding prizewinners were: C.F.L. D. N. Morris, C.S.C. W. F. Furter, Cadet E. K. Gill, Cadet W. C. Moffat, Cadet H. G. MaColl and Cadet P. Letellier. These cadets received Medals in recognition of their general proficiency in scholastic subjects in their respective classes. To C.F.L. T. S. Kolber was presented the Hydro- Electric Power Commission of Ontario Scholarship. The Engineering Institute of Canada Prize for 1951-52 was won by C.S.C. W. F. Furter. This prize was presented C.S.C. Furter by Dr. J. B. Stirling, President of the Engineering Institute of Canada, on Oct. 7, 1952. The Oueen's Challenge Shield, awarded annually to the best all-round cadet of the first year went to Cadet J. F. Webster. At the conclusion of the presentation of prizes, Brigadier Rockingham addressed the Cadet Wing reminding the Cadets of the importance of their role in Canadian life and endeared himself to all by warmly commending the parade he had wit- nessed. On Sunday, amid the cheers of the Cadet Wing, the Ex-Cadets marched to the Memorial Arch for their annual Memorial and wreath-laying ceremony. Out- standing among the large number of Ex-Cadets this year were the classes of '05, '27 and '31 which held their reunions. The day and weekend were brought to a successful close in the afternoon with a football game in which the R.M.C. team easily won out over McGill University. -NO, 3195 E, L, BOBINSKI WINTER LECTURE SERIES This year the staff and cadets were indeed fortunate in obtaining five very outstanding figures to take part in the winter lecture series. Their personal views served to keep everyone at R.M.C. abreast of the topics of current interest. Mr. T. R. Henn of Cambridge University opened the series on Sept. 26 and gave an amusing and informative talk on Shakespeare's Army . He pointed out that many lessons learned from the Elizabethan Army are applicable even today. On Oct. 27, General The Honourable A. G. L. McNaughton spoke on The International Joint Commission - a subject of timely interest considering the connection the Commission has with the St. Lawrence Seaway project. During his first visit to R.M.C. as Governor-General on Nov. 27, the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey, addressed the Cadet Wing on Education and the Officer . This polished talk proved of great interest to the audience. 1953 49 On the evening of Jan. 26 Dean C. N. Mackenzie, President, Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd., spoke on the topic ffWhere Are We in the Atomic Age?U Dean Mackenzie dealt with the future of the peaceful application of nuclear energy and left his audience with a keener conception of the future of this atomic age. The last lecture of the series was a talk entitled MA Glance at Our Modern Worldw, delivered on Feb. 13 by the Most Rev. A. Vachon, Archbishop of Ottawa. In this lecture, Archbishop Vachon warned us of the dangers of so-called progress in Gut time' -No. 3347 R. R. WALLACE THE MARKER Another year in the life of The Marker has passed with Volume IV now completed and tucked away in the hles. What has been accomplished during the past four years in the development of such a College publication? Has the aim of The Marker changed and how have the means changed in obtaining the end? Reference might well be made to Volume I, No. l of The Marker, dated November, 1949. Like all thriving newspapers, The Marker depends on contri- butions from the entire Cadet Wing. This statement is as true to-day as it was four years ago and will undoubtedly be true many years from now when The Marker has become a weekly or bi-weekly publication. Although obtaining such contributions from the Cadet Wing is practically like pulling teeth, herein lies the challenge which any publication offers to its staff. The satisfaction felt by the staff and contributors would not exist to such an extent if material was to be had with- out an effort and, to all probability, the quality of The Marker would suffer if copy appeared spontaneously. f'All articles for the cadet section of The Review will be obtained by sifting those submitted for The Marker. This statement expresses the original aim, or one of the original aims, of The Marker which has since changed. The Marker was apparently established, in part, to serve as a funnel for The Review in obtain- ing material for the cadet section. However, in the succeeding years, The Review and The Marker have gone their separate ways and now experience very little overlapping in the literary section, although the photographic and literary depart- ments still co-operate to a very great extent. The Marker will be run off the press every month and will continue to be run off as long as your contributions and our patience last. Naturally enough as The Marker developed, its frequency of issue increased so that the present paper prints twelve issues during the academic year, approximately bi-monthly, and gives greater Hfreshnessi' to sports news and College activities. The reference to your contributions and our patience remains applicable and, at present, both quantities seem to be of fairly durable construction. The overall aim of The Marker has changed very little since its conception - to present a balanced picture of cadet life to the outside world and a view of the world over the wallw to the cadet wing. In integrating these two main aims it must the families and friends of serving cadets and the ex-cadets. These three groups have very different attitudes toward The College and care must be taken to make a picture of College life as clear as possible for complete understanding by outside readers. So stands The Marker after its first four years. Development has been great but much more lies in the future. The Staff of 1952-53, before retiring from the journalistic field, passes on its blessing to future editors, future contributors and future readers, and hope that they obtain as much benefit and enjoyment from The Marker as we have over the past year. -NO. 3235 R.

Review VE3RMC CALLING The other day l tuned in to a local broadcasting station for my favorite radio programme, The Commercial Hour , brought by the kind, kind efforts of the local merchants. Suddenly l was blanked out by QRM. It was no other than Dave McFall calling CQ on the transmitter in the Ham Shack. CQ, CQ, hello, CQ, this is VE3RMC in Kingston, Qntario calling CQ on 75 meter phone, so what say someone! He temporarily signed off. That meant a few minutes peace with my radio programme anyway. Come to think of it, I hadn't heard the Weiner'l, our chief operator, doing as much DX-ing this year as last. I guess the 20 meter skip must be pretty bad. Bill Furter and Dave McFall have been doing most of the operating, and as we are going to lose Bill this year, I am glad to see that the Friday night ham ticket class is shaping up so well. With Mr. Cox's efforts on radio theory and Flight Lieutenant Murray's efforts on Morse code, there should be plentv of hams around next year, and not the kind for Wednesday night dinner either.'Say that sounds like McFall again .... OK W3JERK this is VESRMC right back. Fine business old man. You are putting in a fabulous signal here - at least a million Dbs over tally poop and maybe more - my S meter went clear off scale. Say old man, if you are wondering about all the background noise here in the shack, that last comment il3!92 WQ S was by Bill Zatychec our chief builder and repairman. He just blew another QB2 VR tube at 53.82. Qh yes, and there are Max Forman and Dave Chalmers over there working on their superhets. No kidding, old man, there has been more building here this year than ever before. Ten superhets are built or are in the process of building, along with 6 super regenerative receivers, 6 receiver trans- mitter power supplies, a miniature broadcast receiver, 2 VTVMS, a 40 watt band- switching transmitter with VFQ, a CRO, and Electronic Switch, and a few other efforts. The variety hasn't been quite so great this year as last, but more of the boys are making use of the tools and equipment. The new policy of the club - that of loaning of radio receiver kits to cadets with the understanding that the cadet may keep the product and pay cost price for it or return it to the club in reasonable condition - has developed a keen interest. So we will shoot it back to you, old man in Lower Slobovia and see how we are coming in. So this is VE3RMC standing by for W3JERK. It is really too bad that one can't hear both sides of these ham conversations with an ordinary radio. Some of them are really interesting. I wish I had been on hand for the one of the West Point game. The boys reported that the signals were good and it sure was a lot of fun relaying the results to those cadets who weren't lucky enought to have the opportunity to go to West Point this year. Hmmm, here's McFall again. OK W3JERK, this is VEBRMC right back and fine business on your last transmission. Unfortunately we have lost a club member in the last few minutes. Bill Zatychec just found out that a simple RC network would replace his VR tube and we had to send him off to Silent Sam's Sweet Sanitarium for a rest. Oh well those are the breaks. Well I will say 73's now old man. I hope I C U -again some- time, and this is VEBRMC off and clear with W3IERK in Lower Slobovia, GE QM. --No. 3049 F. N . D. GILBERT 1953 51 THE REC RUIT CALENDAR It was the square that first drew our fearful eyes from the red sashes and the -gold bars. Silvered by a bright sun that added to the staggering effect of the College, the expanse of pavement which still echoed with last year's HUP-two-three was to resound another term with voices, voices first timid and hesitant, then loud and belligerent. September saw our transformation from human beings to cadets C although sometimes W. O. I. Coggins doesnit agreel, with the square remaining the centre of attraction. Recruits could now be seen in pairs or in dozens, pounding the square, the parking lots, Fort Frederick, or whatever else afforded pounding space. We, as recruits, had learned what was on top of the Arch and what was under it, now we were determined to see what was on the other side of it. Then came the seniors' turn. The Obstacle Course proved to be the real ordeal of the year. Devised by a fiendish third year, the course returned us to our original state of despair. Yet it left in us the desire for revenge that will be displayed when it is our turn to build the course.

As a body, the class mustered together its -pet aversions to form a rather crude satire of the College in general and of its seniors in, particular. Starring Don McColl, our version of the Cake Walk, entitled Pit Panoraman, depicted a recruit's dream in which the audience followed Recruit McColl through the highlights of his love life in Kingston, his struggles in lectures and P.T., and finally his 'futopiai' with himself as C.S.L. and certain seniors as his victims. This was the second presentation since the re-opening of the College. and it was up to our class to set an example for future recruits. To what extent we met this responsibility is a matter of opinion. Nevertheless, many of the seniors left Currie Hall with, perhaps, a new conception of how they appeared to the 'slowest of the low . The picture of the 1952-53 recruit year was completed by a blood-spilling boxing tournament. Yet it is unfair to the class as a whole to suggest that the picture is complete, for we have only remarked on the more outstanding events of the year. Mike Reeves' hot trumpet and the gang in the Rec. Room are but two of the many things that go to make our class the spirited one that it is. -No. 3536 J. E. VANCE 52 R. M. C. Review GLEE CLUB This year the Glee Club enjoyed its most successful season since the re- opening of the College, for the first time, the eliorts of its members culminated in an excellent recital, which was delightfully received by an appreciative audience in Sir Arthur Currie Hall on Feb. 27. Under the experienced direction of Lt. Col. T. F. Gelley, whose tireless efforts and catching enthusiasm were largely responsible for the success of the recital. the hitherto untested group of singers reached the perfection and polish exhibited in this performance. The Glee Club was founded in 1950 by Maj. Leo Lamontagne, now on the staff of College Militaire Royale de St. Jean. The original accompanist, Madame C. A. Chabot, who composed the College March Precision, was at the piano and at the organ was Mrs. D. R. Agnew. Both ladies deserve much credit for their part in making the recital a success. The programme included a great variety of numbers, suitable for male voices. from Prosperest Day to Drink, a rousing sixteenth century drinking song, to Wagner's Pilgrirnis Chorus from T annhauser. Included also were Adorarnus Te and The Dutch Prayer of Thanksgiving in the sacred group, Bull-a'og on the Bank and The Admirals Broom in the glees, and the Negro Spiritual Go Down Moses in the miscellaneous group, to mention but a few. The Glee Club was honoured to have, as guest artists at the recital, the Agnew Instrumental Ensemble, with Mrs. Agnew, violin, the Commandant, cello, and Mrs. R. T. Rich. piano. Their excellent rendition of the traditional London- derry Air and In an Eighteenth Century Drawing Room by Scott, made an encore of Schubert's Musical Moments a necessity. Three stalwart staff members of the club, Maj. G. W. Fawcett, Dr. A. E. Lauziere, Dr. D. G. M. Diaper, and the distinguished director, Lt.-Col. T. F. Gelley. presented the Quartette from Rigoletto Cwith apologies to Verdii, as an added attraction. This was indeed a high point of the evening, the audience, Who had never seen the Faculty Four during their lighter moments, were convulsed with laughter at the humourous antics. However, what the audience did not see was the spirit of good fellowship which marked the hours of practice and preparation - a fellowship found only where lusty voices are joined in harmony. In the words of the director, g'We hope for a fruitful and enjoyable development of the Glee Club and the establishment of a tradition of excellence of performance . -No. 3326 F. A. M. TREMAYNE 1953 53 R.M.C. RADIO STATION The Royal Military College's newest form -C of cultural activity is radio broadcasting. A 4 few weeks before Christmas, cadets were in- formed of plans to develop a College radio station, but that such plans could only become actualities if cadets were willing to give their undivided support in the station's development and operation. The results of this appeal were extremely encouraging. It was imperative that a large staff be formed because it is hoped that eventually the College will operate an inde- pendent station, CRMC, every Monday, Tues- day and Wednesday evening. Meanwhile, the facilities of th: Queen's University radio station KCFRCJ have been made available and permission has been granted to broadcast over CFRC for a five hour period every Wednesday night. The station's staff was headed by the general manager, R. A. Ironside, and his assistant, A. McLellan. J. G. Pearsall acted as secretary. Programme super- visors were W. J. Law and D. McPherson, assisted by D. Mundell, F. E. Ross, J. D. Grant, M. Rich and D. Pearson. T. S. Kolber was technical supervisor, his operating staff included Cadets Casson, Lennox, McFall, Simonds and McCaslin. Those who acted as announcers or in other capacities included cadets: Bobinski, Maranda, Gall, J. Tremain, Cambon, F. Treymayne, Smallwood, J. Howard, P. Price. Altwasser, Pocock, D. Wightman, Perry, and G. C. Reade. This is not a complete list, however, because the stationis staff is constantly expanding- no two broadcasts were handled by the same group of cadets. A It is apparent that these Wednesday night broadcasts have uncovered a vast potential of abilities and possibilities. The cadets produce a wide variety of music from 'bop' to Bach, sports programmes, murder mystery farces, piano stylings, special events, Csuch as a transcription of the highlights of the 1953 Canadian Services Colleges Tournamentl and a French programme. The programme pat- tern is fiexibleg this enables a large num- ber of cadets to participate in the tech- nique of operating a radio station and permits a wide variety of entertainment. In the 1952-53 term, only six broadcasts were made, covering the period from Feb. 4, until Mar. ll, but these were sufficient to establish the radio station as an integral part of the College's activities, it is a very important part, for above all, the stationis aim is to provide the public with listening enertainment. The Royal Military College has found a new voice, a voice that carries to its audience :an added example of our achievements. C.W.C. thanks Queen's .... Cadet Casson operating .... -No. 3159 D. F.

Review OLDTIMERS AROU JACK GRIFFITHS, a veritable walking encyclo- pedia on College antics saw action in the Great War with the King's Stropshire Light Infantry as a Staff Sergeant and was wounded at Ypres and Loos. Jack has been with the cleaning staff at R.M.C. since Nov- ember 8, 1928. His favorite story is the one about Billie Johnson, a watchman. Une evening as Bill neared the tower of Mackenzie Building to lower the flag, he heard an eerie rattling of bones. The noise, caused by the wind, came from the skeleton of a horse placed up there by certain cadets who loved to torment him. Billie fied in terror at the unearthly sound and refused to go up and lower the flag. Two years later he was kidnapped by a group of disguised cadets who finally released him near Gananoque. The 'fkidnappersv were never found. Jack often tells, too, of the unfortunate watchman on his rounds who bent down to pet what he thought was a cat and found out C the hard wayj that the Cat actually was one of the numerous skunks which at one time infested the peninsula. Another hum- orous incident occurred on the morning of the Great Fire of 1932 which partially destroyed the Library and Mess Hall. The Orderly Officer who had received no news of what had happened the night before was making his way across the square when he met another sv- , , ff, 'ii-1:-um-1 -bl? person and asked whether breakfast was being served. E He must have been burnt up by the answer! JIM PEACOCK, on oct. 10, 1935, left 3 first class hotel to come to R.M.C. as the Mess Steward.

When it was established in l92l, the tailor shop was situated below the Commandant's office in the Mackenzie building. At that time all of the uniforms were made at the College. The method used in those days was much superior to the method used now. During the summer, before the recruits came to the College, they would obtain their measurements and send them in to the College. Conse- quently on their arrival, the uniforms were almost hnished. This system however did have its difficulties. One day, Alph was having trouble fitting a certain cadet. The various parts of the tunic were just pinned to- gether, and after making the usual chalk marks on them, each piece would be removed and laid on a table. This particular uniform was very unco-operative and Alph was becoming quite exasperated. The cadet, however, noting the growing pile of parts on the table, put the finishing touch to the already irritating situa- tion by commenting, very sarcastically, f'Why don't you number the pieces so that you can get them back in the right placesf, WILLIAM 'LJIM MCCORMICK is a real old timer here at R.M.C., having been here since 1922. In those days, there were two barbers, one in the bogs of Fort LaSalle and one in the Frigate to look after the f'Siberian Brigade? The cadets were required to queue up behind the barber's chair to await their turn for a haircut. Any senior could step in front of a recruit in the lineup. Thus, a recruit would often have to wait for hours. One French-speaking recruit, however, found a method of beating the system. While standing about twentieth in line, he happened to mention that as soon as the cadet in the chair was finished, he was to call a certain much-feared senior who took a great delight in tor- menting recruits. The rest of the lineup, deciding that discretion was the better part of valour, left and our hero walked up, took his place in the chair where he begged Jim to say nothing of the incident. The business has changed a great deal from the early days. Then, Jim would do sixty haircuts in an afternoon and evening with the average time for a haircut being 2 minutes. Thirty years ago a haircut cost .35, during the depression .25, in the 'fortiesi .SG and today .60. Thus, the good old days were much easier on the pocketbook, if not on the hair.

Review THE DEBATING SGCIETY Debating at R.M.C. this year virtually started from scratch. ln an effort to gain more interest and give experience to those who wished to debate, the first term was devoted to inter-squadron debating. Although many of the participants had never debated before, the caliber of the contest was surprisingly high and a great improvement was noted as the newcomers gained in conhdence and ability. The final debate in this competition was between Cadets Wareham and Sherman of No. 4 Squadron and Cadets Tuerk and Day of No. l Squadron on a topic which., to say the least, required thought and imagination, 'fResolved that the essence of greatness is to align oneself with the inevitable. The No. 4 Squadron team gained the judges decision by a vote of two to one, in an extremely entertain-A ing contest, to win the College competition. Also in the first term Cadet L. Gilchrist represented R.M.C. in an inter-school debate with Regiopolis, K.C.V.l., and Notre Dame on the subject, uResolved that Communism should be outlawed in Canada. The motion was defeated. The second part of the academic year was highlighted by debates with other universities at McGill, Carleton, and West Point. The McGill Winter Carnival was the first chance this year for the College debaters to compete with other schools. In a round-robin series two teams from R.M.C., one upholding the affir- mative CWareham and Shermanl and one the negative CCroll and Dayl, competed against six other universities from the United States and Canada. The topic, Resolved that in the western nations the struggle for liberty is being lost at homef, proved to be rather one-sided and only one affirmative team managed a win. However, congratulations must be extended to Wareham and Sherman on their novel approach to the subject which received praise from many of the students and teachers at McGill and enhanced R.M.C.'s prestige. The negative team of C.S.C. Croll and Cadet Day fared somewhat better, managing to win two and tie one in three attempts, thus placing fourth in the twelve team conference. On the weekend of March 7 the College sent teams to two schools, Carleton and West Point. In these two contests they broke even, winning at the Point and losing in Ottawa. Cadets Lawrence and Collins debated at Carleton on the subject Resolved that education in Canada is a farce . Although they successfully proved that the resolution was false they were unfortunate in meeting two excellent speakers with a crowd-pleasing manner which infiuenced the audience enough to swing the decision away from the cadets. The next time they will demand a judge. The highlight of the year was the West Point trip. With dates, parades, dances and hockey games the agenda was very full and very pleasant. On the side, Cadets Wareham and Day found the fortitude to debate affirmatively that 'fSpain should be admitted to the U.N.',. To crown a very successful year, the cadets won a close decision over the West Point debaters on a subject which was both timely and interesting. This marks the first in what we hope will be a series of wins over the Pointers. The success of the Debating Club this year was due to the spirit and the interest of its members. Special thanks go to Professors MacLean and Beck for their untiring work in organizing the Club and carrying it along. A vote of appre- ciation must also be extended to those Staff Members who so kindly and ably judged the inter-squadron tournament and to Cadet Morrison, the Club President, who worked hard to make the year a success and was unfortunately ill during the trips to McGill and West Point. Success is invigorating! Hats off to the Debating Society and letis hope next year is as successful. --No. 3029 R. G. DAY 1953 57 DRAMA CLUB By each directing a one-act play, to form the annual presentation of the R.M.C. Dramatic Club, J. Arthur Roe and Cecil B. Kaduck, two of the leading figures in R.M.C. drama circles, this year displayed the talent which had been developing within them since the first production of our humble group, two years ago. On the evenings of the eleventh and twelfth of February, the Club presented Where the Cross is Made by Eugene O'Neill and Brothers in Arms by Merrill Denison directed by Cto use their more formal titlesl CFL R.V.A. Roe and Cadet R. M . Kaduck. Although the idea of presenting two one-act plays represented a departure from the traditional staging of a single three-act drama, the audience seemed very pleased with the result. Where the Cross is Made turned out to be a ghost story, revolving around an old whaling captain and his delirious quest for a fabulous treasure. At the end of the play, the ghosts of three of his crew members appeared carrying the treasure chest, and the action was timed so that, as the curtain fell, the audience was never really sure whether the ghosts and treasure chest really existed or not. Captain Bartlett was played by Cadet P. A. Gifford, and the splendid gutteral voice and expressive gestures of the Captain were particularly impressive. Captain Bartlett's son and daughter were played by J. B. Gilbert and Miss Bonnie Ward, Doctor Higgins, by Cadet I.P.C. Sherlock, and the three ghosts, by Cadets D. E. Sharp, B. C. Dimock, and P. R. Hylton. The artistic lighting and make-up did a great deal to reinforce the eerie atmosphere of the play. Members of the cast will not soon forget the afternoon on which experiments were being conducted in Room 200 by the make-up department, about a week before the actual production. One of the cadets had been made up as a ghost, complete with ashen face and icy eyebrows, and as he was on his way to the washroom to have a look at his face in the mirror he met his fiight leader in the hall. The CFL started, mumbled something about recruits getting more sleep at night, and made a dash for the door. During the interlude between the two plays, the audience was treated to a very amusing skit entitled If Men Played Cards as Women Do in which Cadets R. W. S. Collins, C. H. A. Casson, W. R. Boal, and C. R. Younger took part. One of the high points occurred when Cadet Casson, sitting at the poker table, proceeded to take out his electric razor, plug it into the fioor lamp, and shave. Brothers in Arms, a gentle satire on the stereotyped military mind of a pom- pous soldier-businessman, turned out to be the hit of the evening. J. Altrus Brown, the businessman, was played by Cadet J. H. G. Howard who did an excellent job, and the youthfulness of his voice seemed rather to add than detract from the humour. Miss Margaret Martyn did an equally good job with the part of his excessively naive and romantic wife. Syd White, a backwoodsman, recently a pri- vate in the Van Doos, was played with a great deal of humour and realism by Cadet J. W. Doyle who was rather amused, but not too flattered, when the critic of The Kingston Whig-Standard described him as a natural for the part. Cadet J. W. McCaslin performed well as Syd's companion in the backwoods. The cadets are grateful to Dr. P. F. Fisher, SXL R. D. Sloat, Mr. W. S. Avis, and Dr. and Mrs. D. F. Gibbons for their help and co-operation in direction and production. The set was ably designed and constructed by CSC D. J. Martin and his assistants. Immediately following the final night's performance the members of the club and their friends held an informal get-together in the Centre Recreation Room. Dr. Fisher was presented with a bottle of champagne, which was emptied in short order with toasts for a still more successful year in 1954. -No. 3257 R. S. WAREHAM 58 R. M. C. Review R.M.C. NEWMAN CLUB The first Newman Club was founded at the University of Pennsylvania in 1893. The aims of the club were to serve the spiritual, intellectual, and social interests of Catholic students attending non-sectarian universities. john Henry, Cardinal Newman was chosen as the patron of Newman Clubs because during his life, both before and after his conversion to Catholicism in 1845, he was very closely associated with universities and was constantly aware of the need for students to be trained spiritually as well as in other fields. It was to promote this spiritual balance that the Newman Club was given its start. To-day that same incentive has seen the club spread to practically every institute of higher learning in the world where Catholic students do not persue their religious studies as part of the regular ciriculum. As cadets are no different from other students, a strong need was felt at R.M.C. for the benefits of Newmanism. When a cadet comes to the College, the steadying infiuence of the home is removed and his faith may suffer if some replacement is not found. Many cadets cease their religious school training when they enter high school. Even the ones who are fortunate enough to attend Catholic high schools find themselves without further training in spiritual matters at the College. Just as you wouldn't attempt to solve a calculus problem with grade VIII mathematics, neither should you try to answer the questions regarding the truths of faith and moral principles that arise in your advanced studies, without a corresponding advance of spiritual knowledge. Finally, the advantages of a social sodality based on unity of faith were seen as a direct result of adopting the Newman Club at R.M.C. In the spring of 1951 a few cadets were invited to attend a function of the Queens Newman Club. Soon, an arrangement was made to extend to the cadets of R.M.C. affiliate membership in the Queen's organization. This was a gracious act and as a result, both clubs have benefited. We hope this association will continue for many years to come. Our first executive consisted of one man, Cadet M. Faraday, now in Korea. This year the executive was expanded to three members and a more active part was taken in organizing club activities, including a social night here at the College, and debating and dramatic shenanigans in town. Plans for the future call for the drafting of a constitution which will set down the aims of our club so that the good work thus started may continue, and advance with R.M.C. -No. 3183 W. H. MCKEE CAMERA CLUB Last Gctober saw thirty-five members of the club elect Cadets E. L. Bobinski, R. Davies and H. Bepple to the executive, which, under the chairmanship of Dr. J. R. Dacey, has smoothly run the administrative side of the club in this, its second year of existence. Already the club has proved to be one of the most popular and active organisations at the College. With its growing membership and amount of expensive equipment. a serious problem of darkroom space has arisen. It is hoped that next fall, by the Grace of God Cand the goodwill of Admin.J there will be built-in shelves, a fan, and, most important of all, that there will be added dark- room space. The photo contest in progress at this writing is meant to be only the prelude to a regular salon-type exhibition planned for next year. Other plans for the future include a number of talks by representatives of the various suppliers of photo- graphic techniques and processes. -NO. 3195 E. L- BOBINSKI 1953 59 FORMAL DANCES The social life of R.M.C. started off with a shriek on Nov. 8 with the Hallo- ween formal, for the gym offered a very eerie sight to the eyes of the couples as they entered. The music of Brian Brick and his orchestra issued forth from a huge pumpkin which served as a bandshell. Witches, bats, owls and other such creatures, so characteristic of Halloween were present in great numbers, but they did not seem to bother the whirling dancers. The gay crowd did, however, have an irritating effect on one very gruesome corpse, by disturbing him from his rest and causing him to sit up in his coffin at intervals, in an attempt to fathom the strange actions of the very much alive dancers. Still, in spite of the inconveniences to such uncon- ventional guests, this first formal of the year was a big success. Usually the Christmas Ball is a much looked forward to event, because it signals the finish of Christmas exams and the commencement of leave. The Christmas dance, the second formal of the year, was no exception and on the night of Dec. 19 the big event took place. The theme of the decorations was The Night Before Christmas? This very familiar poem was given a novel and unique inter- pretation by the members of the decorating committee. On entering the gymnasium, the couples saw a large book flanked by two enormous candles, and opened at the title page of this classic. As they strolled around the gym, they followed the story by means of cut-outs on the windows, each entitled by a few pertinent lines from the poem. In the alcove, Santa Claus was being carried through the air over pulling his gift-laden sleigh and prancing through the sky in a very lifelike manner. The delightful dance music was supplied by the R.C.M.P. orchestra, which played in a huge fireplace appropriately hung with a stocking for each squadron. In their scarlet tunics the uMounties lent an illusion of melodic flames playing in an enchanted world. There is no doubt that everyone was brought into the proper mood to start the festivities of the Christmas season by this very successful dance. After the cheering in the events of the annual R.M.C.-Royal Roads tourna- ment fFeb. 20-215 had died down, a formal dance was held in the New Gym. Due to the fact that the gym was being used during the tournament, there was not time for much decorating. At one end of the gym, however, there were two sil- houettes of the Castle and the Cadet Block at Royal Roads, thus preventing our visitors from feeling neglected. At the other end was a large and very elaborate crest to symbolize the unity between the two colleges. The fine musical interpretations played by the R.C. Signal Corps Grchestra from Vimy did much to make the evening the great success that it was. The Cadet Wing is looking forward with great anticipation to the April Ball Con May lj which will bring to a close another academic year. Then, for the Graduating Class, there is, of course, the June Ball Cwith all its preparative festi- vitiesj which will mark the end of an important phase in their lives and the beginning of a new one. -No. 3227 D. G. LAWRENCE 60 R. M. C. Review AN EX-CADET TELLS OF THIRTY YEARS AGO - l923 - Looking back l know that the best year I ever had at R.M.C. Cand I think I am only one of hundredsl was my Hrst year, despite the hard work, numerous duties, seniors and, of course, defaulters. During that ghastly year I made many friends-we are still friends and shall be to the end of our lives. The recruit year of those past days was hard but fortunately had many amusing interludes-I remember many, too numerous to mention here. I do recall one very harrowing experience. One day I was ordered by my senior to hide his cigarettes so that other scrounging seniors would not find them. As I used to keep my senior's-let us call him Harry--rifle spotless I considered it an excellent idea to hide the cigarettes down the barrel. One day there was a fire drill. Everyone grabbed a rifle and ran to form up on the square. This day the Platoon Commander was ill so Harry had to take over. 'fCuttyH, the inspecting officer Cex-Guardsb, decided to examine the rifles, and the order to examine arms was given. Harry's rifle was inspected first. Cutty picked one cigarette out of the breech, examined it and threw it over his shoulder-one more cigarette had taken its predecessors place in the breech. This procedure was continued for live cigarettes. Cutty then carried on to the front rank. It requires little imagination to realize my feelings and what was to happen to me after the parade. g'Cutty,, was a good scout and so was Harry. Nothing was said. Oh yes those were the good old daysl. . . the days when the runway ran from the Old Gym to the Stone Frigate and when the mess hall was what is now Room 250. At that time the square was little more than half its present size, and what is now the new section was a large lawn surrounded by a fence. Gravel covered the existing square and about this time the six grass tennis courts were being torn up and replaced with Currie Building. The hockey rink was covered with an aeroplane hangar presented by Sir Herbert Holt. There were 128 recruits and only 36 seniors. We shined numerous buttons, cleaned rooms and rifles. The only thing we didn't do was polish boots. In the common 'boot-room, recruits used Fort Frederick as a recreation room. In fact, it was out of bounds to seniors! We used one tunnel Cknown as Helly for a meeting place. It was a common practice during that winter for the recruits to go to Hell, light a fire Cin Hellj and have a meeting on the slightest excuse. After the Cake Walk was over that year the seniors were prevented from getting the cake when it was sent up by a rope outside the wall to a cadet on the tower of the Mackenzie Building. He pulled the inside ladder up behind him, and somehow, no one remembers him bringing it down. He must have eaten it up there. Along with the Cake Walk, the riding school holds many fond memories. So did swimming in Navy Bay. In my time we swam despite uthe pollution of the water? even if the ice had to be broken-and it did! I still remember ex-cadet C..l.B. and myself floating on Lake Ontario on an ice cake Cproof available upon requestl. But one thing which we learned so well that wonderful year from the Comm , Staff, and our Seniors was Truth-Duty-Valour. 409 -No. 1 1. 1953 61 THE COLLEGE TGDAY -- 1953 - As a second year cadet, l am now able to look back on my recruit year and recall, with somewhat fond memories, the many activities and events peculiar to a recruit at R.M.C. ln many respects, the recruits of today occupy themselves in exactly the same ways as did those poor unfortunates of thirty years ago. In fact, it is almost impossible to imagine a recruit being at the College without having to be squadron runner, without being on fire picquet, without running the square, and without having the occasional C73 bout with defaulter's parade. These acti- vities have become so much part of the tradition of the College that the place just could not be the same without them. The recruits of today, with all their studies and numerous duties, find it as hard to get through that first year as did the recruits of 1923. But the reader shouldn't deceive himself with the idea that the recruit's life is all work and duty because he finds many opportunities for diversion. Last winter, one pastime in which we indulged was watching television on Wolfe Island. Gne dark night as we were slowly making our way back to the College across the slippery ice, we saw a vehicle approaching us at a terrific speed. At first, we thought that it might be a civilian going across to the island, but, much to our surprise, we saw that the vehicle was none other than the College fire jeep and that three second year types Cwe shall leave them namelessj were merrily taking off across the ice. We envied them at that moment. However, we were somewhat consoled when we saw our three friends on C.B. several days later. If the fire jeep had existed in '23, I think it is very easy to imagine it tearing across the ice on some dark night, because even if the times have changed the cadets of thiry years ago were probably very much the same as those of today. Although the College remains essentially the same there are some very significant differences. R.M.C. is only one of the three Canadian Services Colleges which exist today. Royal Roads near Victoria, B.C., and College Militaire Royal at St-Jean, Quebec, share with R.M.C. the distinction of being the first tri-service colleges in the world. There is today a much greater emphasis on taking permanent commissions with the regular Canadian services. Many of the cadets have taken advantage of the Regular Officers Training Plan with the intention of accepting a commission in one of the three armed forces of Canada upon graduation. A cadet of thirty years ago would hardly think of flying to Victoria and back for a week-end or vice-versa. But this is exactly what happens every February when R.M.C. and Royal Roads have their annual tournament. The average cadet of 1923 would also be very envious of any cadet today living in Fort Haldimand, the new dormitory built in 1950. Although some ex-cadets say that swimming in Navy Bay was great sport, most of them, I think, would admit that the new pool in Fort Haldimand is really tops. However, there are some things which never will change here at the College. It will always remain a place where great friendships are fostered. And often, in the years to come, when a familiar face or crest prompts an unequalled hospitality, the ex-cadet will have good reason to be proud and to appreciate his College. -No. 3347 R. R. WALLACE SOUADRON NOTES NO. l CFRONTENACJ SQUADRON IV ING in the Stone Frigate, independent of the main body of the cadet wing has produced a high-spirited squadron possessing a tremendous sense of comradeship. While the rest of the wing sluggishly stays indoors, we ight our way across the square in a blinding blizzard or a howling Kingston gale. ltls not hard to realize why Fort LaSalle is called the Pansy Palace, by the Frigate boys. This past year has bcen No. l Squadron's most successful one to date, at least as far as sports are concerned. The appointment of Big John MacLachlan as Squadron Sports Officer has made a great deal of this success possible. Mention should also be made of this year's recruit class, which took a very active part in inter-squadron sports. We feel that this year's recruits have proven themselves to be worthy occupants of the Frigate. . During the fall term, the entire squadron turned out to play on our soccer team, as a result of this enthusiasm and support, we romped to a well-earned championship. However, only a small number trained for our rugby team which fought gamely but finished in last place. Regatta, you say? This is a very sore point with the Frigate lads, who, living next to the boathouse were very enthusiastic in training for the regatta. Our sailors had a pretty rough time in the gale that blew that day. Both our ackroyd and admiralty class dinghies were swamped in the high sea, the sloop finished second, only to be disqualified for hitting a buoy. As a result of all this ill luck we placed third. The track and field meet ended with No. 1 Squadron in third place. In the harriers we again monopolized last place. This showing in the harriers is quite incomprehendable because walking to and from the Frigate gives a Frontenac cadet more exercise than his opposite number in the other squadrons. We should have walked away with the cross-country! Anyway, our recruits showed that their extra doubling did pay off in at least one event - the recruits' obstacle race. This year, as in the last three, the recruits captured first place - a fine tribute to good teamsmanship. Extreme modesty prevents us from expanding on the fact that No. l. placed first in volleyball, swimming, water polo, rifle, pistol, and second in boxing. The booby prize in drill again was carried off regularly by hexed No. 1. In March, the Frigate received a new Squadron Commander in the person of Lt. Bethume, R.C.N., Cknown as 'fTiny J, who stands unchallenged as the tallest man in the College. He took over from Lt. Slocombe, R.C.N. C The Great Red Leader J, who left H.M.S. Stone Frigate for a more navigable ship. Lt. Slocombe was very well liked during his stay at the College, his fiery shock of red hair and his little white dog made him very fitted to command our rather Minde- pendentv squadron. This year, with the organization of the College Pipe Band, the old Frigate was often filled with sweet bagpipe music at reveille. Frontenac Squadron contri- buted Jim fthe Indianj Graham, Ken McCrimmon, Fred Aldworth, W. R. Boal, and 'fBrucew Cooke to the new band. Another mentionable occurrance was the squadron Christmas tree which adorned the second deck. Ross Hamlin received the most appreciated present - a pit ! Another truly remarkable gift to the squadron was made by our illustrious C.S.L. Pogo,' Chisholm who scrounged a washing machine to do the squadron's socks. All in all it has been a good year for Frontenac Squadron even if our fond dream of getting a recreation room in the basement of the Frigate didn't material- ize. Well, welll try again next year. ...Na 3069 W. A. MCCOLL 19153 63 NO. 2 CLASALLED SQUADRON This year, LaSalle Squadron was led into battle once again by Capt. Spike Malone of the Lord Strathcona Horse CR.C.D. His cadet officers were C.S.L. Law, in command, C.F.L. Roe, Zifc, C.F.L. Thomson, Training officer, C.F.L. Bolger, Sports officer, C.F.L. Willsher, C.F.L. Scott, and C.F.L. Green, Flight Leaders. Behind them stood eighty-eight of the most ornery roughnecks found this side of the causeway. Gamboling about the ranks chewing a tennis ball pranced Cor- poral Dooley, who is supposed to belong to Captain Malone but who everyone knows damn well belongs to the Squadron. This was our first year in Fort Haldimand. The Big Five boys of No. 3 Squadron must have done a lot of work on it last year for the rooms were so clean that we began to win the odd room inspection. As usual we have done much better than average in drill, in fact our performance has been almost 'fColdstream although I doubt if the R.S.M. would buy that. We really distinguished ourselves, however, by not winning a single athletic competition at the College this year. Don't let that fool you, though, for, to quote our esteemed Squadron Commander, 'fThis, is a Squadron of characters. In the early fall a score of husky LaSalle men opened up a garage in the lower hall of Fort Haldimand. It was considered to be an excellent site as it was situated just outside Duke Martin's Coffee Shoppe. For some reason, however, no one seemed to demand their services so they commandeered a small car C75 from one of the 'ffaculty clubbersl' and parked it in their garage. Duke was a little peeved because it blocked off his clients from the Coflee Shoppe and the clubber was annoyed for obvious reasons. The most annoyed of all were the garage owners who did not even receive storage rates for their efforts. Perhaps one of our most enthusiastic teams was the schooner team that used to ply the trade winds from Navy Bay to Wolfe Island. The object, of course was to make a study of the Kingston fortihcations from a seaward point of view. Another object of research was an extensive study, carried on by most of the squadron throughout the year, of the various pubs in the city of Kingston. To date the results have not been compiled but the general consensus of opinion has narrowed it down to two. Anyone interested in the results should drop down for a chat with CName Supplied On Requestj and see the facts for themselves. After the holidays the squadron began to settle down. tChristmas reports have a rather settling influenced We put in a strong bid for the hockey and volleyball championships but did not quite make the grade. Many of the members of the squadron have shown a keen interest in curling with Ken Perry turning out to be an expert. The spring term would not be complete without a word of congratulation to Recruit Sherlock who took the recruit heavyweight boxing championship this year with a very fine performance of scientific boxing. Also a tip of the hat to Ron Mann, editor of The Marker, and Ron Roe, director of one of the two Drama Club productions this year. Congratulations are in order for the many LaSalle men who earned positions on one College team or another this year but, above all, the honours go to those members of the squadron who. although they may never have played the game before, turned out to do their best to put the squadron Uup top . It is felt that there is enough material here to initiate next year's squadron officers into those special traditions about R.M.C. that are peculiar to LaSalle squadron. To you we throw the torch. Be yours Io guard it well. --No. 2857 M. O. G. THoMsoN 64 R.M. C. Review NO. 3 CHUDSONJ SOUADRON All for one and one for all - this could very well be the guiding theme behind Hudson. Why does No. 3 continually best the other squadrons? The answer is a simple one. The most intense squadron spirit in the Wing is to bound among the wearers o' the light blue. The record of the last five years is proof enough of this Last September saw Hudson blessed with a fresh crew of recruits, cadet officers and a new O.C. in the person of Flight Lieutenant G. K. Murray. Thanks to the eagerness of the newcomers and the fullest cooperation of the remainder of the squadron, the same high standard of morale and discipline set by the Class of '52 has been maintained. After the excitement of the first week back at the College and the Opening Ceremonies had passed, Hudsonites settled down to their usual fall routine: football. soccer. women, tennis, girls, sailing, women, shows, and the occasional hour of study. The first big challenge to Hudson's supremacy came in the form of the Annual Regatta. Holding only a slight margin throughout the events, the Light Blue scullers had to give their all in the deciding race, the War Canoe, and they did so with a tremendous burst of energy to come from behind to win the race and Regatta. Hudson copped the laurels in the Harriers in a more decisive fashion. ,Ad- mittedly short on Gunder Haegs, No. 3 once more proved that where team effort is required they are tops! Few came within the first ten but most placed above average, giving Hudson the honors by a wide margin. This margin can only be attributed to intestinal fortitude and desire to win at all costs for good old No. 3. Mid-term saw Hudson well ahead of the Hpack on points but a strange fore- boding was prevalent. A rumor began circulating that the staff felt that No. 3 Squadron had been on the right of the line too long and that the other squadrons were developing a defeatist complex. The impossible happened! In the last week of competitions, with Hudson leading by a scant few points, drill and room inspection results placed the Light Blue in last position. Revolution seemed imminent, but cooler heads prevailed and Hudsonites Cmagnanimous types that they areb, realizing that this was for the good of the College, went about with tongue-in-cheek and stoically accepted the situation. As was mentioned before, the emphasis in the squadron is not placed on the individual but on the team. Because of this it is readily understandable why a poor showing was made in the track and field events. In football, team effort again paid dividends. Under mentor Hugh McGee, the smooth-working Light Blue gridders steam-rollered their way through an undefeated season. Christmas finally arrived and No. 3 was back in its rightful position - on the right of the line. Exams, Christmas leave, and resolutions were taken in stride and in sport the Hudson hockeyists started off the new year with a bang. The pucksters were finally edged out of the championship in the deciding game of the play-offs. To make up for losing the hockey laurels, No. 3 Squadron's pugilists literally carried away the honors in the Open and Recruit boxing divisions. Well trained and conditioned, they copped five of the six Open titles in addition to a number of novice crowns. One last word in conclusion - and this is directed to those unfortunates who do not sport the light blue - the secret of our continued success has been team spirit. Imitate us in this respect and perhaps you may be able to replace that light blue pennant which has been Hying so proudly for so long. -No. 2986 J. M. Scorr 19.53 65 NG. 4 QBROCKJ SQUADRON As this year's Review goes to press there is being waged one of the most spirited struggles for inter-squadron supremacy in sports, inspections, and drill since the reopening of the College. Brock has been making quite a name for itself since its inauguration last year and since that time has piled up a very enviable record, appearing on daily orders many times as the squadron either first or second in a recent event. Last year Four squadron took the right of line for the November December period and again this year carried on this noble tradition despite the separation of the squadron into two buildings. Just as in the past, fighting Four has proven itself to be junior in years only and has been regarded in many instances as the squadron to beat . In sports Brock started the year by winning the softball title largely due to the fine showing of M flight. The Green Wave quickly followed this up with an overwhelming victory in the track and held meet accumulating a higher point total than could be shown by the other three squadrons combined. Of course a goodly share of tough breaks were suffered as well. The football team, strong favourites to win top gridiron honours after holding the College Junior Team by two touchdowns to one dropped the clincher to Hudson squadron. Faced with the absence of some key aquatic representatives who were competing for travelling College teams, Four squadron was forced to accept second place in the annual regatta, but not until the last event when No. 3 squadron eked out a win against a spirited and hard driving No. 4 squadron war canoe team. The members of Brock squadron also ran a good race in the Harrier's but who, save mad dogs and Englishmen, would consider it sporting to run three and one half miles in the dead of winter wearing but the briefest of cotton gear? To the consternation of admittedly stronger but overcontident opponents number Four fought with determination to gain a second in swimming, water polo and volleyball. In inter-squadron hockey the Haldimand-LaSalle Combines were a great credit to the fighting spirit of Brock. As strictly underdogs in the final game the hockey team defeated highly rated No. 3 squadron to win the hockey championship. Much credit must go to Barney MacColl who was a standout between the pipes during the entire hockey schedule. Here is a word about the recruit class. They deserve a good deal of recogni- tion for their loyalty and competitive spirit. Everyone agrees that the obstacle course and boxing are a severe test of the best and worst in anybody's personality and While not everyone can win, the proper spirit was applied by all. While on' the subject of boxing, congratulations go to May, Hindmarch and Walford who wore the squadron laurels in the ring very ably this year. Brock's social life this past year has been a great success. The cadet officers coke and chocolate bar party in the Centre Rec. Room was quite a surprise but a very welcome one. Highlight of the year was the Four squadron couples party held in the old gymnasium. Nails Kerr and his Committee of Public Safety had the evening well planned and scored another triumph by arranging to have the swim- ming pool made available for use. After this, games, records and wonderful eats were enjoyed in the old gym. As the year enters its hnal stage, whatever the outcome of the present squadron race Four squadron can look back on a year of achievement. To the other squadrons an expression of thanks for some fine competition and to the members of this year's Graduating class best of luck from all the members of the Green Wave. -No. 3070 H. F. MCDOLTGALL SUMMER TRAINING ASHORE AND AFLOAT LTHOUGH the bulk of cadet training was done on shore, Naval Cadets from R.M.C. steamed many miles last summer on the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and the Mediterranean Sea, visiting those 'ffar away places? Al- though the memories that remain are mostly of the ports visited, much of the time at sea was occupied with intensive practical training in watchkeeping, navi- gation. and most important, learning how to live in a ship. Following the Closing Exercises last April, almost thirty first, second, and third year cadets travelled from R.M.C. to Canada's West coast to join over four hundred students from universities all across the Dominion in the R.C.N.'s annual summer training plans for future naval officers. Upon arrival at Victoria, the first year landlubbers', were transported to Royal Roads, located seven miles from the B.C. capital. Here they spent five weeks studying the fundamentals of pilotage, and passed what free time was left to them after the daily routine, in recreation on the baseball diamonds and basketball courts, or in the sailing crafts on the salt-water lagoon. At the conclusion of the course they mustered themselves and their gear on board the two frigates, H.M.C.S. Antigonislfz and H.M.C.S. Beacon Hill and the destroyer, H.M.C.S. Sioux. A one week familiarization period was spent at Bedwell Harbour on Van- couver Island's eastern coast before the Task Group weighed anchor and sailed up the Inner Passage. Stops were made at Sydney, Prince Rupert, and Juneau Alaska, where the cadets met the local inhabitants, saw what sights there were and loaded the three ships to the bulkheads with souvenirs. After cruising down the Pacific coast of the Island, the cadets, seatime was completed at Bedwell with a regatta and banyan party. The three remaining weeks found these old salts in the classrooms and on the t a - - ,..., .. . . .. i . parade square of H.M.C.S. . Dockyard for a Divisional Course. Meanwhile, the second year aspiring Admirals were under- going instruction in Commun- ications and Astral Navigation and enjoying Victoria's gay social life. We suppose the Chamber of Commerce is still discussing the 'fmustersn at Telegraph Bay, McMorran's and the HP Club. Upon the return of the first cruise the newly and painted Battleship Richelieu at Toulon ships were taken over by these second year men and sailed to Long Beach for a five day leave. Their khaki uni- forms were sighted in every conceivable location that held entertainment or sight- seeing value within a fifty mile radius of L.B. The inevitable banyan party and regatta concluded a very profitable and exciting cruise. The two engineers, Cadets Beament and Bolt, logged their sea time on the cruiser H .M .C .S. Ontario which made the round trip from Victoria to San Diego and then visited Vancouver, Juneau Alaska and Prince Rupert. On the trip they observed the mechanical theory previously studied at H .M .C .S. Naden. 19:53 67 The third year cadets, Law, Chalmers, Bigelow and Price failed to book passage on a cruise because of extended courses in Gunnery, T.A.S. and Communi- cations at Naden. However, they brightened the night life of the capital and even entered the used car business. Compliments should be offered here to Bill Law, who as Chief Cadet Captain for the West coast, efficiently co-ordinated the ties between the cadets and the Reserve Training Staff. , The summer was climaxed by the Command Ball, a gala affair at the Crystal Gardens with its associated parties lasting until early morning. Most of the cadets left soon after and wended their respective ways home for a few weeks holiday. There is no doubt that they will remember Summer '52 as one of the highlights of a well-planned training program and for this they wish to extend their appre- ciation to the Reserve Training Commander and his capable staff. Not all of the R.M.C. Naval -- . . .. . .. Cadets went to the West in Coast. Fifteen cadets, mostly second and third year, travell- ed East to undertake their sum- merfs instruction. Although the normal training period for cadets of the Reserve usually consists of fourteen weeks, it is the six weeks aboard a naval ship that always remain fore- most in the cadets, memories. Lucky enough to be aboard the first cruise were Cadets Till, Allan, Gravelle, Mac- Gregor, and Ex-cadet Peter MacGregor. R,M.C. Types on 'Antigonish' The Task Group left Halifax on May 18 and consisted of the two frigates La Hulloise and Swansea and the destroyer Crescent. The first port of call was Ponta Delagada on the Island of San Miguel, which is one of the largest islands in the Azores. This was only a refueling stop and the one day spent there was more than enough to satisfy the boundless curiosity of the cadets. With souvenirs in the form of pineapples, straw hats and baskets tucked away in the corners of the cadets' mess, the Group proceeded to Gibraltar. Here all had that feeling of being able, at long last, to see a place we dreamed of when younger. A bus tour of La Ligna, Algeciras, and Terifa in Spain was arranged, and the cadets discovered the pleasant fact that drinking water in Spain is scarce and its place is taken by el vino. Needless to say, this difficulty was over- come by the cadets with their usual stoical approach to fate. After failing to buy out the jewellery shops of their supply of chronographic wrist-watches in Gibraltar, the shops on the fabulous French Riviera took the strain. With four days ualongsidew at Toulon, the cadets took advantage of the proximity of the resort towns and ffooded the French market with the world's highest currency-the good old Canadian buck! Resorts visited included Marseilles, Gulf Juan, St. Rafael, Cannes Cnoted for shocking lingeriel, Nice Cditto for perfumesj, and Ville franche-sur-Mer. Attempts were made by the more adven- turous types to reach Monte Carlo and lose a couple of thousand Cfrancs, that isj. However, Cadet Till and an accomplice got within fifteen miles and three flat tires before the Heffortf had to be abandoned. 68 R. M. C. Review So it was that the three ships headed Westward with one hundred and twenty poorer but happier cadets aboard with visions of saving their money 'cback in Stadaconan. lt was a rather expensive cruise but what a wonderful way to go broke' Subsequent cruises visited Dieppe Cthence to Parish, Dartmouth, Portsmouth Cincluding Londonl. Antwerp and Brussels. This, it is hoped, will offset the idea currently found in Air Force Cadet circles that the Navy is being replaced in the old adage: Join the Navy and see the worldw! Although small in size, the Electrical Branch of the Navy claimed a few of R.M.Cfs naval cadets-Lawrence, McKey, Archambault, Cumming, and Mc- Donald. Shore training for the 'LLP cadets consisted of a short three weeks at the Electrical School in H .M.C .S. Stadacona and two weeks practical training at the R.C.N. Air Station at Shearwater. A few tours were also worked in and one of these took them to the shipyards where construction is in progress on the new R.C.N. destroyer escorts. Shearwater proved equally exciting as a number of cadets were fortunate enough to get a flip to Greenwood in a Grumman Avenger, the main anti-submarine aircraft of the R.C.N. But the best part of the summer was yet to come. After disappointing rumours that no cruise was in store, a very fortunate turn of events resulted in a never to be forgotten four weeks training cruise aboard the newly commissioned cruiser H .M.C .S. Quebec. On July 4th, the big Q steamed out of Halifax harbour to begin 'fCruise George bound for Portsmouth, Chatham, Tor Bay, the Azores, and home again. The greatest thrill of all came during the watches on the bridge with the almost legendary Captain P. D. Budge. Questions and tasks never ceased while the Captain was on the bridge and cadets did everything from recruiting poetry to conning the ship during manoeuvers. After six days at sea we dropped anchor for a day off Portsmouth at Spithead. From here the Q sailed to Chatham, where all spent a glorious ten days. Everyone had ample time to take in all the sights of London-St. Pauls, Trafalgar Square, the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle. etc., and of course Piccadilly Circus. The stay was made more interesting and instructive by tours to H.M. Dockyard at Chatham, the Power Plant at Greenwich, the Underground System of London, the Parliament Buildings, Westminister Abbey as well as a visit to the Royal Naval College at Greenwich. Here R.M.C. cadets were shown around by former R.M.C. and Royal Roads Cadets Allen, Crickard, Dawson, Ogle, McKee and classmates. All too soon we set sail for home via the Azores, joining the three other Canadian ships La Hulloise, Swansea, and Crescent at Tor Bay. Since the cruise completed fourteen weeks training, on return to Halifax many of the cadets from R.M.C. left for home. To give an account of the summer without mentioning the cocktail party held by the Ex-Cadets Club of Halifax would certainly be amiss. The party, which was for all Canservcol Naval Cadets, was held on board the destroyer Haida. Unfor- tunately, most of the cadets had left for home the previous week, however, those who did attend had an excellent time, and felt very much indebted to the Club for their hospitality. Summer training f'52 , both east and west, was the most interesting and adventurous period of naval cadet training since the inauguration of the cadet training system, and it also might be said the most instructive, because when interest and morale are high, learning comes easy.

Allan 19153 69 TRAINING WITH 27 BRIGADE GROUP Early in May the first draft of 27 C.O.T.C. cadets posted to the 27 Brigade Group in Germany reported to Longue Pointe, Montreal. We were confronted by a ghastly looking mess of oily gear from the O.M. stores, gear which had to be ready for inspection by the C.G.S. in three days! CQB. and complete lack of sleep produced a ship-shape crew on the square sporting the grey Brigade patch. Finally we boarded our ship, the Empress of Canada, and set out in eager pursuit of the gorgeous gals reputed to be on board. Unfortunately, they numbered six, all most carefully chaperoned. flt later turned out that the average age of the passengers was 65-70 years.J While sailing down the St. Lawrence the em- balming room fthe barb and the layout room fthe loungeb were quite active but once on the sea all lurching was blamed on the ocean. The usual farewell-to- Canada party was given and to the despair of our HA deck co-passengers it ended in a 0300 hr. jitterbug contest on the promenade. The Atlantic gave us quite a workout in typical late-spring form. Usually, the afflicted would make a harried exodus from the dining room wearing a thoughtful expression to disappear for the trip, emerging at the end anemic and shaken. In spite of the earnest efforts of Late Again Donaldson, our amiable ship's captain, we finally passed the bright green Irish coast. With the pilot making liberal use of radar and fog-horn we approached the Mersey. The Empress of Canada docked at Liverpool and we found here the war damages that we learned to accept as a matter of course during the remainder of our stay in Europe. The city was gapped here and there and signs of new construc- tion were visible everywhere. After a short tour of the city we made mistake No. 1 by asking for a Ubeerw. Beer turned out to be a mysterious and potent dark brown liquid, that was to have its effect later fit was stoutj. We journeyed by train to Har- wick and were surprised at the tremendous pick-up of the tiny British engine. After an overnight trip from Harwick by military trans- port we docked at the Hook of Holland. The scene was just like a Van Dyke painting. The low country-side, the canals and the characteristic malt-coloured sails all seemed familiar friends. The efficient Dutch electric trains Cemurifms of Ho Sqn., R.C.D. whipped us through The I-lague. Utrecht, Arnhem. We crossed into Germany where gutted buildings and rubble were common sights. In Hanover piles of rubble and single-storied buildings dotted the area. At the London-Edinburgh Barracks we were split into our various corps - the Engineers to Hamelin, the Infantry and Signals remained in Hanover, and the Artillery and Armoured laddies to Hohne CH6-nuhj near Belsen. CAlthough this narrative purports to be that of the entire C.O.T.C. group, our division makes this difficult. Hence it will be largely that of the cadets in Hohne and Hanover.J During our early phase we filled all positions from Troop Officers to Asst. Adjutants and Adm. Officers. The first phases were largely training within Corps, with artillery shoots on the huge Royal Armoured Corps ranges C40 x 60 milesl. T0 R. M. C. Review Later came combined schemes in preparation for the N.A.T.O. fall exercises. What with working with the new Centurion tanks, meeting our troopers, taking courses in tactics and constant travelling, this part of the summer passed swiftly. The Canadians had plenty of recreation in the form of swimming pools, athletic fields, the ubiquitous British Army Globe theatre across the cricket patch, the Y.M.C.A. canteen and the weekly dances in Bergen with its potent brews and well-iilled stores. But due to a seven day work week as compared to the Brit's five and a half. these facilities were not always fully utilized. A trip to the former concentration camp at Belsen was in order. The building had been razed and the site was marked with a tall cement monolith backed by a cement wall with epitaphs in the various languages of the United Nations - the English one read simply, To the memory of those who died in this place? Con- spicuous bunker-like mounds contained the remains of an estimated 250,000 bodies. With the end of the first phases we took conducted tours of the various Bri- tish Leave Centres. These beautiful centres were excellently staffed former German luxury hotels at Bad Hartzburg and Sharbeutz. At the latter, besides excellent boating and swimming facilities, we could watch the Russians across Lubeck Bay. tlt was quite apparent that this curiosity was mutuallj Tm, -.,..: MQ... , ,, , 1 ' 2i5ii??ii'1, 2.

The scenery was a marked change from the northern fresian plains. Here we were situated in the foothills of the southern mountains, with small villages of scrubbed, white-washed, scarlet-tiled buildings like scenes from a travelogue. The range there could only be the product of the German mind, it was a huge pock-marked area with entire villages within the firing ranges. Here the troops were re-qualified in their rifle and automatic weapons and schemes and demonstrations were run off again preparatory for the N.A.T.O. exercises in September. Here, too, all the C.O.T.C. were able to get together and compare experiences and see more of the country. The Mohne Dam fremember The Dam Busters'?J was nearby and it was interesting to see the results and objectives of so many raids. Bielefeld, Detmold, Paderborn and Soest fthe new location of the 27 Bde.J form a rough isosceles triangle, and all four towns showed the damage done by our bombers who 'stonked' them when the dam could not be breached or attacked. Huge American Army convoys were constantly being met, and the cosmopolitan atmosphere was increased when Danish, Norwegian, and Canadian troops mingled in the streets. Weekend tours were again available and on one of them we were able to visit Dusseldorf and Cologne, returning via the Ruhr Valley. Cologne seemed to be a typical city of this area. The main street, consisting of a beautiful canal ilanked 1953 71 by huge promenades and wide streets, was jammed with well-dressed civilians window-shopping in huge, well-filled stores. I Comparing these stores with England one sometimes wondered who won the war.J Sidewalk cafes were well filled and war seemed a million miles away. Yet, when the Cathedral was visited, a few blocks away on the Rhine, all one could see for miles along the river banks was whole vistas of bombed-out, rubble-filled streets with little or no apparent attempt at repair. The return trip through Essen, the centre of the Ruhr, was taken at night but the entire area was spotted with the flames of active steel mills, busy turning out more and more steel, this time for N.A.T.O. and the West. After Sennelager, the units were returned to their base camps to prepare for Gperation Spearhead, the huge pre-N.A.T.O. scheme which was to take place in a few weeks. Unfortunately, we of the first draft were then preparing to return home and the most we were able to do was to help prepare our units for this, the culmination of the summer's training. The experience gained here was invaluable for many of us had been on the receiving end of these schemes, but never on the planning level. The extent of this scheme only increased the value of this training. When the units pulled out we were left behind to prepare for our own trip back to Canada. This was to be even more harried than our preparations to come over because all of us had taken advantage of sharply reduced prices to load up on clothing, books, and equipment of all sorts. Finally, everything was packed and we gathered in Hanover and boarded the train. With our minds crammed with heter- generous memories of huge stores, cobble stone highways, the ever-present and varied German types of uniforms, the amazing auto- bahns, garbled and half-remembered German words and phrases, and with a pleasant all- prevailing feeling of a well-spent, valuable summer's training we left Germany behind us and again arrived at The Hook. Here we were loaded on board a Dutch channel ferry and quickly and comfortably whisked across to Harwick. Then we headed for London and arrived there late in the evening. After some argument and confusion over our baggage fthe Movement Control here was not noted for its efficiencyl we got a few hours rest. As we were to leave at noon the next day, most of us were up early and as a result had two whole hours to see London. After a rapid tour of the Tower of London, St. Paul's, Westminster Abbey, and Buckingham Palace we were loaded onto the usual cattle-cars, onto the train, and whisked again to Liverpool. Here we boarded the Empress of Scotland with loads of sororities and a swimming pool. The week at sea passed all too soon in an atmosphere of moonlit and splendid days. Then came the long haul up the St. Lawrence and we docked at Montreal. After a short tussle with the Customs and a never-ending three days at Longue Pointe, we left on leave for home. Without a doubt, this was the best summer welve ever spent with the C.O.T.C., whether along the lines of train- ing or of travel experience and it is our sincere hope that this phase is main- tained, if only for the C.O.T.C. cadets who are in the Regular Officers Training Plan' -No. 3026 w.

Review KOREAN AIRLIFT As one of Canada's committments to the United Nation's police action in Korea., a North Star from 426 CTD Squadron operating from Dorval, near Mon- treal. flies across the Pacific Ocean to Japan every four days. The cargo which the aircraft carry to and from Japan is restricted information. lt does, however, include comforts for Canadian troops in Korea - the most appreciated of which is mail -and casualties returning to Canada. All third phase navigators and radio officers last summer were fortunate enough to be sent on one airlift trip as part of their summer training. I was one of the fortunates and I bless my lucky stars that I was because of the invaluable experience gained on the trip. The trip across took four days - the total flying time for the entire trip to Japan and the return amounting to eighty hours. The hrst touch-down after the take-ofl from Dorval was at Winnipeg where the aircraft was refueled and some of the forty-six service passengers disembarked. At Edmonton there was a stop- over for one day, and then the flight was resumed to Vancouver. At Vancouver. the passengers left the plane and when Canadian Customs officials had checked our papers we pointed our aircraft towards Tacoma, Washington, the terminal headquarters for the United Nations' northern-route airlift. In Tacoma, the cargo was loaded and the crew briefed by American oflicers. The North Star then became a part of the United Nations' fleet. From Tacoma, the aircraft continued its flight and touched down at Anchorage, Alaska after eight hours of flying time. Seven hours later saw us land at Shemya, the second to the last island in the Aleutian chain. which is the jumping-oflf airfield for the Pacific crossing. We spent the night at the American base there. The hop from Shemya to Tokyo usually takes anywhere from nine to twelve and a half hours, depending upon the winds. Our particular crossing took twelve hours and forty-five minutes, which is uncomfortably close to the maximum endurance of a North Star. This is not as serious as might ap- pear at first glance since we made our land-fall near Matsu- Stooto Never. HOP PE N oo shima and flew over- W land to Tokyo.

An interesting and rather confusing oc- currence took place when we crossed the international date line, which enabled us to leave Shemya at about 1200 hours on Thursday and arrive in Tokyo at 1000 hours on Saturday, after a lapse of only thirteen hours. Friday was non-existant. However, on the return trip, we left Tokyo on Tuesday morning and landed at Shemya on Tuesday afternoon thus regaining our 'flost day. 1953 73 The first and most lasting impression of Tokyo is the nauseating smell that hangs like a veil over the entire city even in the relatively modern business section. It is difficult to become accustomed to the stench, because it varies with the diff- erent quarters of this city of over five millions. Passing a side-walk fish market is a hazardous procedure consisting of waiting until there is an opening in the crowd, taking a deep breath, then plunging ahead with a fervent prayer that one will not have to breathe again until well out of range. It makes a person think twice before sampling Japanese food, because fish is found in nearly all their dishes. 40 e.a ,, The Old Tokyo. . . . . , And the New I was very fortunate to have FXO Cliff Quinn, a former classmate of mine at R.M.C., as my check navigator. Having been on the flight to Tokyo before, he was able to show me many of the attractions that a tourist or greenhorn usually misses. We both had a luxurious room in the British Commonwealth headquarters at Ebisu. The headquarters, consisting of a great number of large buildings, had formerly been the quarters of Imperial japanese Naval Staff Gfficers during World War II. Our room with its high ceiling, fan, beautiful maple furniture, private telephone and its artistic floor lamps made us feel as if we were in a first class hotel and not in military quarters. By simply crying out girl-san a Japanese maid would appear and only moments later Cliterallyb she would return with our shoes shined, uniforms pressed or whatever else we had asked of her. Their efficiency amazed every one. Very little war damage is visible in Tokyo. This is not the case in Yokohama -which is only thirty minutes away by electric train-where the destruction had af? h lflfh il -'V l! at ' -A -Z i I, ' 1 ,kr if ' i 3 74 R. M. C. Review been extensive. What damage I did see in Tokyo was directly across the street from our quarters. There, only a mass of twisted girders, rubble, and rusted cranes remain to remind one of an overhauling shed used for midget submarines which were brought up via a canal from Tokyo Bay. When travelling from Ebisu to various parts of Tokyo, f'Cliff and I used the electric railway which is an excellent transportation system resembling a sub- way above ground. We were always the only Occidentals in the car, and felt all the more conspicuous because we were head and shoulders above the tallest Japanese. The streets of Tokyo, as we saw, are lined with frame houses covered with a queer patch-work of straw matting, corrugated iron, bamboo poles, and the occasional window. Just as typically Japanese as these houses are the numerous sampan-packed canals which are spanned by a large number of quaint high-arched bridges. Such scenes are frequently found in the outlying districts of Tokyo. .We found the people themselves very kind and helpful. It seems that they had not considered Canada as a combatant enemy during the late war and were careful to distinguish us from American servicemen. One experience that no visitor in Tokyo misses is a tour through the famous Ginza market, a haphazard collection of open-air stalls. The merchandise varies from suitcases to pure silk lingerie, at unbelievably low prices, that is, if you are patient. All purchases are made by bargaining with the proprietors, whose quota- tions are usually double the normal price. After a series of concessions on both sides. the usual procedure is to say that you did not want the damn thing any way, or to threaten to buy the article from another stall, then turn around and start to walk away. You would rarely get more than two or three paces away before you would be gently pulled back to the stall under a torrent of good natured but badly fractured English. The stall operator then begins an act lamenting his self-sacrifice usually saying ,Ca standard expression , 'Ng among themb should zJ' never hoppen and NK I 9 ' sells you the article 1 at a very low price. The degree of res- 1 pect for you seems to yn- Y Pl! Us be based on your abi- A oo' lity to beat the stall- . keeper down to his G rock-bottom price. ov The visitor invariably leaves the Ginza with a load of trinkets that he just 'fcould not live without, at that price . After four days of whirlwind activity, trying to see as much as possible, we left Haneda airport and its 95 degree temperature for our return trip. It is under- standable that the impressions I received in such a short stay are somewhat confused. I still find it difficult to realize that I travelled half way around the world, spent four days in the largest city in the Orient, and returned to Montreal, all in the space of twelve days!

For a long time Jamie Graham, Robbie Fraser, Ken McCrimmon, Ray Kaduck and many other lads of Heilan' blood had hoped to see a pipeband formed at R.M.C., but the lack of equipment and instructional personnel had pre- vented this. The addition of Sgt. Paquin fan excellent piper and drummer him- selfl to the drill staff overcame these difficulties. His enthusiasm was catching and it was not long before the necessary equipment arrived at the College and a large number of aspiring bandsmen began instruction on the chanters and drums. R.M.C. Pipe Band Makes Debut at Sports Night It was fortunate that there was a nucleus of four pipers and a larger number of drummers at the College around whom the band could be built. Thus it was only a matter of weeks after the arrival of the equipment before the band was ready for its first public appearance. This took place at the Sports Night in Jan- uary and the band was Well received by the large audiences in both gymnasiums. Since that time the band has been concentrating on the instruction of new pipers to replace the four pipers Who will be graduating this year as well as to increase the size of the band. Several of the beginners have shown remarkable progress and it is hoped that by the time next year rolls around, the band will be considerably larger. It is fitting that a pipeband should be formed at R.M.C., for the pipes, more than any other instrument, are associated with the armed services, and have been through the ages, from the time of ancient Egypt to the present. Nor are the pipes Ccontrary to popular opinionl only associated with Highland units. The R.C.A.F. has several good pipebands, as have many of the services in the Common- wealth. Even a U.S. division in Korea marches to the skirl of the bagpipes. The R.M.C. pipeband still lacks polish. This will take time and patience and it is hoped that in time the band will become an integral part of College life, if this does not come about, it will not be the fault of Sgt. Paquin and the pipers and drummers who have worked hard this year to give the band a start. -No. 3146 K. G.

Carry on and shortly the squadron was forming up with the Wing. Not till the command to march to attention was given, as we approached the highway, did the solemnity of the occasion come upon us. All traffic coming off the bridge had stopped, and a smart left wheel brought us into position before the majestic arch with all its symbolism. The cold wind swept off the bay and the murky clouds gave it a heavy atmosphere, but as f'Last Post was played we thought of the names on the plaques and those among us who are bound to fall.

W. TREMAIN LITERARY FOUND . . . TOO LATE! HE steady rythmic sounds of deep breathing punctuated the silence. He could not see from where the noises were coming . . . but he knew. He knew they originated from the still forms in the long row of beds beside him. For the past few hours he had lain there listening, thinking how they resembled the low muffled roar of a grand pipe organ that had run out of wind. He had never heard the moan of a dying pipe organ, but somehow he knew it would sound like that. As he lay there, he thought how closely, too, this noise resembled his thoughtsi all mixed together, seemingly comming from nowhere, confused, and all wasted. But he tried not to think of that. He could see himself sliding onto the bench of an organ, lifting his feet clear of the pedals. His fingers trembled as they adjusted the music and he could control them only by pushing hard on the music rack with his palms. He knew no one would notice. He didn't need the music, he knew the piece, he knew he knew it. Yet there was something inside him that forced him to have that music there. As long as it was there all would go well. He raised his hands to play . . . He felt the bench fall away from under him, and he started to drift down. ever so slowly. One after another the manuals came into view, but he fell away from each with increasing rapidity. On every manual there were hands poised ready to play. His falling seemed to slow and then stop leaving him crouched in the bottom of a deep pit with walls miles high. Above him he could hear an angry roar, a sound that sounded familiar and yet he could not understand it. Then he saw them coming . . . falling on him! There were hands, hundreds of them. They were dancing, running, and even singing: he could hear them sing! There were manuals, organ pipes, and even whole organs, all falling down, and down. towards the bottom of the pit where he was crouched. In another second all would be over. He could feel the weight crushing him tearing him apart. And yet he was sure he could stand this if it were not for the deafning roar that was thundering through his head trying to fill every crevice. Suddenly there was silence, broken only by the steady rythmic sounds of deep breathing. He knew that the room was hot and stuffy and although he could not see the snow gently drifting past the street lamp outside the window he had been told that it was falling. How he longed to be able to go outside and break a trail through the fresh snow, before it would be turned to slush by the morning rush of people and traffic. It seemed like ages since he had been admitted to the hospital, and yet he remembered it had only been a week. He knew there would be many more weeks before he would be allowed to leave, perhaps even months. But he was not looking forward to that day. Life was finished for him! No more gay parties . . . who would want to be seen with him now that he had lost both hands and feet, and most of his face! Oh God! Why did it have to happen to him! He tried not to think back but he couldn't help it, something seemed to force him. His father had not wanted him to leave his music, but he knew what a poor life he would lead with only that, so he had left home for exciting life in the new '78 R. M. C. Review world of science and ideas. He had soon been caught in the wheels and found himself iiying through life at an amazing speed, having fun and really living , every second bringing new thrills. That is why he had joined the army, here was a way to travel and at last get rid of the remaining threads of responsibility. This would really be his chance to get the most out of life. He had been in trouble most of the time since he joined, but that didn't worry him: who cared anyway? The money was there, just as always. His arms would tremble as he received his pay on parade. Quickly he would jamb them into his pockets to stop them from shaking. He knew people would think he was putting his money in his pocket, just as they have thought that a hundred times before. He didn't need the money, he knew he didn't need it, he could win all he wanted that night in cards. Yet there was something that forced him to keep the money in his pocket. As long as it was there all would go well. He knew that wasn't true, just as he knew he had not left home and his music, for more money, just as he knew he had not joined the army for an easy life. There was something he was trying to find, something that would make life have some meaning and not be a waste. He had hunted for it but it would slip away like the wind Hitting through the trees. The first time he thought he was in reach of it had been when he was at home just before a public performance on the organg the last time had been just before the accident. They were all sitting on the ground resting. Most of them had been on this excerise before and were somewhat bored by it all. However there was a new recruit there who seemed to be awed with the preceedings. Every shell burst would cause him to turn and look wide-eyed and amazed. He had been watching the lad for some time and was sure that the answer was there. He need only ask and he would know! Then he saw it! A live grenade fell to the ground. Some of the men had been fooling with it to try and frighten the new man. Now the gren- ade was armed and on the ground. No one moved, no one was able to move. In the seconds that seemed hours he heard someone call to him, Are you going to need music in front of you for every performance? Are you going to need money in your pocket before you risk winning? Here is your chance to find the answer to life! ' With that he jumped forward, pushing the terrified recruit to one side. He scooped up the grenade, leaped out of the bushes and started to throw it. He could feel the blow crushing him, tearing him apart. And yet was sure he could stand this if it were not for the deafening roar that was thundering through his head, trying to fill every crevice. But he had been cheated. He still did not know the answer. The sounds of breathing stopped. Everything was deathly quiet. His whole body seemed to be held in a clamp, he could no longer move. Not even the beat of his heart was detectable. After what seemed an eternity this vice like grip seemed to relax. There in front of him, standing out as though spotlighted was a fresh grave. On the stone were these words: ROBERT FORDEN Died as a result of wounds suffered in saving a friend. Greater Love hath no Man than .... At last here was the answer: Love! -No. 3229 J. W. MCCASLIN 19,53 79 A GLANCE BACK Not all of the New One Hundred graduated last Spring. There are represen- tatives from that illustrious group who chose to take the five year plan. The stories we have heard them tell over coffee in the Canteen certainly deserve mention, not for their humour value alone, but as a tribute to those comrades of these who did not graduate. There are few who have not heard of the acrobatics of Bob Jarvis, the episode of Desjardins and the Watch , Herbie, Moose, Biggie, Moon and Bob and their one-night stand in Oakville, the first post-war West Point weekend, the '48 Christmas Dance, and Moon and the Commandant double-dating at the Odeon. From all reports, there wasnit too much midnight oil burnt that year, but with Major Brooks and Mumford as fathers to the boys it was eight months full of good times. And then we arrived, or at least those of us who did not come later from Royal Roads. That first year for many of us seems like last semester. Moose, l'C.C., Dennie Denouden and Doug Preston certainly weren't the most popular with us for the months before Christmas, but we laughed at their antics and grad- ually were drawn into their ranks, to be accepted as equals more than any other two consecutive classes will ever be, or should be for that matter. For there were now two classes of experirnenzs at the College and we bore alike the circumstances of experience necessary at an institution getting to its feet after nine years of in- activity. Major Brooks was still with us and served as a fine example to us aspiring soldiers, sailors and airmen. The Cake Walk, the weeks in the dormitories in Yeo Hall, the meals of O'Keefeburgers, the West Point weekend here and its resulting Brasso party, and the first meeting of the Midget Auto Racing Club with Lt. Shawls car all linger as mental milestones of a wonderful first year. In September, l95O, a class of Recruit Daniels was thrown to us Second Year lions f'Now we can get our own backv, we thought. But we weren't relieved of our own obligations, as many of us who pounded the Square with First Year Defaulters will remember. There were a few changes in the Staff that year, SXL Vinnicombe replacing Major Brooks as Staff Adjutant. What we failed to see as the makings of a choice practical joke, others saw for us. The Opening of the Stone Frigate and Fort Haldimand gave rise to endless Big 5 puns. Mindy's became a popular attraction and the episode of the Clocks and the Photographs on April Fool's Day calls many other similar occurances to mind. The Recruits had a hand in the fun too, or have you forgotten the Case of the Blackened Toilet Seat? As another class swelled the ranks in 1951, the College had a full four years for the first time since before the war. Windy Williamson was C.W.C. and Moe Lalonde was 2 Squadron Adjutant Cremember Moe's Dirty Rooster'?l For some reason, treks to Wolfe Island became a regular part of Recreational Training that year, and the unplanned fire alarms sent us scurrying for towels and burberries to protect our innocence. Bill Picton was still here and conducted guided tours in the fire jeep- The party at the Gananoque Flying Club calls to mind Jim Palmer playing Gypsy Rose Who? up on the stage. The boys from Royal Roads who had joined our class had been accepted and had accepted us as classmates and we familiarized each other with the merits of each others' chosen school. We saw our Seniors graduate in April and wished Bon Voyage to the members of their Class who were leaving for Korea. The final year has come and gone with quite a rush! For most of us it has meant lots of work but many good times as well. There have been Class 'fdo's Ca Weiner roast, and a fun-fare at Gananoque at this writingj, innumerable formal and informal dances, Squadron parties and there will be a June Ball. The football 80 R. M. C. Review team, l4 players of which were members of our Class, had a never-to-be-forgotten trip to Halifax and the beginnings of an R.M.C. Radio Station were nursed by Robbie lronside and Bill Law, both members of our Class. Fergie', lost a sink, and Tony Hampson deserved and won the tive bars which mark him as Wing Commander. The unpopular instances, which we who are leaving and those who remain must accept in a Military Institution, are certainly over-shadowed by the countless good times and the valuable friendships made here. No matter what lies ahead of us after Graduation, whether it be marriage, University, the Services or a steady job on civie Street, we have enjoyed a unique experience during our four or five years here. Our best wishes go with the members of our Class who will be in Korea this summer and we remind those who will not march off the Square with us on May l that they are, none-the-less, Classmates of '53. g Finally, our sincere thanks to the members of the Senior and Sub staffs for their efforts on our behalf. We extend the wish that through their toil and that of the Cadets who follow us, the College will continue to be the Alma Mater of out- standing Officers and citizens. -NO. 308i P. M. PRICE President, Class of '53 LOOKING AHEAD Cruising at 850 knots, immersed in the eerie purple gloom of the upper stratosphere, Blank felt uneasy. It was this feeling which made him the pilot he was -for it was a sixth sense warning him that all was not as it should be. He checked the search radar. Nothing, yet! He waited, tense. Yes! There it was! A rapidly moving, enlarging blip on the radar screen. Blank's trained reflexes reacted at once. Up went the Dart's nose, and out came the throttle. Only the crushing acceleration told him he was moving-but he was, and how! 900. . 950. . 1000 . . . 1100 . . .1200 knots. He banked on a 50-mile radius, fighting nausea and dimming vision as his G-suit pressed in on him. Slowly the weight lifted from his body, and he breathed again. His teeth clamped together in a sardonic grin, Blank kept his eyes rivetted on the ever enlarging dot of light on the screen. A mirth- less laugh began in his belly, and rumbled into his barrel chest. He knew. Hadn't he designed that tracking device himself? The controls locked for the kill .... a moment of suspense. . . then flaming death burst from the Dart's needle nose. and rocketed away into the murk ahead. . . a blinding flash lit up the darkness for a split second, and then all was darker than ever. Elation burst upon Blank, the greatest of them all, and he was carried away upon a surge of joy which led him up . . up . . . up towards the light. He felt odd . . . his senses were numbed . . . !'You! Yes, I mean you! . . . Are you asleep? A finger pointed accusingly at him. Slowly, menacingly, the professor came up, step by step. Cadet A. B. Blank sat slowly to attention, sheer terror gnawing at his heart. No! Not that! Not the Staff Adjutant! He raised pleading eyes to his tormentor. Sleeping? Why, n- n. . He hesitated. Truth! Duty! Valour! 'fYes sir . . fl f'Defaulter, le-ft turn! By the right . . . right wheel . . . left, right, left, right, left . . . left . . fi Recruit Blank felt his mind slipping away. He made a desperate effort to recall it, but it was no use. He had returned to his destiny. There was no doubt about it. No other unit had ever taken such a pounding. The ridge was bereft of trees, ploughed by shells, dotted with corpses. Was it only a week? It seemed like years since the attack had begun. Blank thought nostalgi- cally of home for a second, then drove it from his mind. The army should be safe by now . . . but what a pity that so many courageous young lives should be 19153 81 spent to gain time. lt had begun as a rear-guard action, but his men had been magnificent. Blank's innate genius had welded them into an immovable obstacle to the enemy advance. But numbers were beginning to tell. The odds had been ZOO to 1 in favour of the enemy, now they were increasing hour by hour as fresh troops moved up. Above all else, Blank was hampered by a lack of artillery. Most of his 105's were ruined, their fused barrels sagging sadly. Overheated! . . . But he could not blame his gun-crews. They had just been too keen, that was all. Their rapid fire had proved to be too much for the barrels-too bad he couldn't have had some of the new zirconium jobs. Ah well, it was over now. A new wave of shock troops was moving up, relentlessly. Blank barked out a command, and his men began to withdraw. Even in defeat, they mirrored his training as they moved off in orderly fashion. He watched their receding backs sadly, then turned to face the enemy onslaught. A cruel, twisted face leered into his, mouthing curses. Blank! When I say 'About turn', I mean 'About turn'! Understand? Charge yourself for inattention on parade! Everyone agreed that Blank was the greatest Wing Commander in the history of the College. His love for recruits was legendary, and his acts of mercy during Wing Orders had endeared him eternally to them - so much so that he had been made an honourary member of the Recruit Underground. At this time he was engaged in an all-out war against the Third Year Entente, which threatened to gain complete control of the Cadet Wing. The position of the aggressors seemed impregnable, for they had managed to subjugate the Second Year, through room inspections, to such an extent that the majority of the Section Commanders had been lulled into a false sense of security -blind to the evil designs of the Entente. At last Blank resolved to act. On the night of January 12, at the height of the Entente's post-Christmas Reign of Terror, he called a meeting of the Underground in the old magazine beneath the rampart of Fort Frederick. But someone had been forced to talk. When the meeting was at its height the Entente surrounded the magazine, and closed in. They had, however, underestimated the spirit and quality of the Underground's men, and were slowly beaten back in desperate battle until they reached the Square. Then the Recruits put on a show of drill which astounded all observers with its quality and efficiency, as they out- manoeuvered and out-volleyed the Entente throughout that night of butchery. As day dawned upon the shattered wreck of the Third Year forces, a white Flag slowly rose from their decimated ranks, and fluttered in the fresh morning breeze, while a hoarse cheer rang from a hundred Recruit throats. The Entente was broken! No more room inspections! Freedom was restoredl. . . Recruit Blank awoke in a cold sweat as Reveille was blown. Staring into his eyes with an evil smirk contorting his countenance, was his Leading Cadet. Forgot your room inspection, eh? Heh, heh, heh . . . ! The day had dawned cold and brisk. The light spray which rose from the knifing bows of the Vengeance had glittered merrily in the bright sunlight as it fell back to the quiescent Atlantic. But as the day wore on, the blue of the sea turned to sullen black, and the cheery skies became a leaden grey. The ocean was becoming less docile minute by minute, and the Vengeance was beginning to lurch alarmingly. The bows were throwing solid sheets of water aboard, and the whining wind whipped salt spray from the towering waves and volleyed it at the men on the bridge. Blank braced himself against a vicious lurch, then turned to his executive officer. His eyes flicked scornfully over the pale face which, framed in oilskin, was the picture of terror. Barometer's still falling, sir. 82 R. M. C. Review Good! lf my predictions are correct, we'll get a real workout this time. Then, aware that others did not share his own iron nerve, he added, But buck up, man! We've weathered worse blows than this, you and I. . . . Abruptly, First Year Cadet Blank came to himself. The sun was low in the sky. and its dying rays glinted redly on the quiet waters of the lake. He was alone on the point, remote from the gay bustle which he knew was going on in all the dorms behind him. Yes , he thought, we have weathered worse times than these. He listened to the waves washing on the rocks below, felt the soft breeze on his cheeks, and wondered. The new feeling which he had experienced several times recently had taken hold again, and somehow he knew it would not go away any more. Cadet Blank had grown up. -NO 3,517 N K SHFRMAN UNIFORM INSIGNIA Ecfs Note: This is a somewhat more extensive consideration of the subject than that which appeared in The Marker. In addition to arousing discussion and stimulating action on this pressing matter, the writer answers some questions put before him since The Marker article was published. When the Canadian Services Colleges were initially organized in 1948, con- sisting of R.M.C. and R.R., with C.M.R. joining the fold in 1952, the present blue uniform was adopted as a number one dress. Unfortunately, the Canadian Services Colleges is not the only organization to wear the blue uniform. We cadets have been recognized by the general public as being bell-hops, bandsmen, policemen, postmen, private school cadet corps, British Marines, American Marines, Salva- tion Army and R.C.M.P. As one can readily imagine cadets have been embar- rassed more often than they have been complimented by correct recognition. This lack of recognition has applied to R.M.C. and R.R. and now will also apply to C.M.R. If the cadets of the Canadian Services Colleges are to obtain the status and recognition due them, some practical form of identification is desperately needed. The question immediately arises concerning the form of insignia identification. Several conflicting conceptions will have to be met and compromise will become mandatory if the insignia is to be accepted by the three services and the three colleges. To meet the desire of the individual colleges and their respective traditions their identity cannot be lost. Since the Department of National Defence is organized on the basis of tri-service unity, the theme of the Canadian Services Colleges will need to be emphasized while still retaining the individual colleges' identities. ,wavy B4 U5 AID FOQCZ' ,egg VICE Aww DN SER S CQLL E868 ck f XX ZA-7-7-EDS ' 'QED I propose the above uniform insignia. The words 4'Canadian Services Collegesv will be of army red on a navy blue background, the whole bordered by air force blue. Gold braid will complete the shoulder flash as an external border. 1953 83 This Hash would be worn on both the tunic and the greatcoat, where recognition is most needed. In addition to the Canadian Services Colleges' Hash, individual college iden- tification would be provided by two means. Firstly, on the tunic the letters of the colleges R.M.C., R.R., and C.M.R., would be worn in brass on the epaulets. On the tunic there would be the Canadian Services Colleges' flash and the individual Colleges' letters in brass. Secondly, on the greatcoat the letters and colors of the Colleges would be represented thus: for R.M.C., white letters on a red patch, for R.R., white letters on a blue patch, and for C.M.R., white letters on a red patch. The combination of the Canadian Services Colleges' Hash and the individual College letters and colors would be worn only on the greatcoat. The letters and colors could be worn on the greatcoat in three ways, all of them in cloth. The patch could be either circular and free of contact with the Canadian Services Colleges' Hash, or square and attached to the underside of the Hash, or square and separate from the Hash. So as to be somewhat similar to the shoulder Hash, the patches for the 'Colleges' initials and colors could be circumscribed with gold braid. The addition of the individual College colors to this form of insignia would help reinforce the pride and esprit de corps now felt for their mother College. 4 , ' . ls It has been suggested that words Canadian Services Colleges be done in gold braid on a dark blue background. There is one main disadvantage to this proposal. The tri-service concept would be largely discredited as the three tradi- tional service colors would be absent. As the Canadian Services Colleges are organized on the tri-service concept this suggestion would be contrary to the present Department of National Defence policy for the Colleges. Any shoulder Hash that will be adopted will need the support and acceptance of all three services, and this design is a compromise intended to win their ap- proval. The theme of tri-service unity would be retained. A Canadian tradition would be emphasized for the three Colleges, in the tri-service concept, without losing any of the individual College traditions. A shoulder Hash would constitute no break with tradition as R.M.C. wore a -distinguishing shoulder Hash during the recent war. Also, during the early 1920's the brass R.M.C. was worn on the uniform. The tradition of wearing a shoulder Hash upon a blue uniform would be continued, as the Royal Canadian Navy has for years worn the Canada Hash. Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, England, wears a shoulder Hash. Therefore, a shoulder Hash would not be a break with, but .a continuance of our military traditions. The whole system of insignia would add some color to what is now a rather drab and plain uniform. Even with the introduction of the scarlet tunic for all three Colleges, the proposed insignia, shoulder Hash and brass epaulet, would still be applicable and no alteration would be necessary. This proposed insignia would be excellent advertising and would be in the spirit of the quiet publicity which is one of the College's traditions. -No. 3062 A. R. KEAR R. M. C. Review A POME?

THE PASSING Associations, are they not the very theme of man, Without which man could not exist, nor has, nor ever can? But sacred is the memory of the College boys we met, Though all have gone their diverse ways Through life's strange paths and tortuous maze, For some, Life's star has set. As years roll on all things must change, and most of all do men, But customs long established needs must outlive three score ten: Thus thirty years have wrought but little change at R.M.C. The work begun has been well done By each Class gone and each Class come, And will by those to be. How strange, how welcome is the thrill in some forsaken land, To hear a once familiar voice, to grasp a friendly hand, Or strolling with the well known stride to feel once more that thrill, A sounding slap upon the back, Hello, old man, from R.M.C.'? Yes. l've been through the mill. And so the bond of fellowship extends from sea to sea, Is strong through each succeeding year, throughout the years to be And each looks back on R.M.C., each and without regrets, In life or death, in peace or war, There always is 'Tesprit de corpsj' For all were once Cadets. We all have danced till break of day on a summer's night in June, Have seen the happy couples stroll beneath the warm, full moon, Have watched the violet shadows grow pale in the morning's chill, And the rosy tint of another day, In scarlet and gold and pink array Crown old Fort Henry Hill. Then in the light of that other day we clasp hands in a ring, M. C. Review With dew dimmed eyes and swelling hearts and last 'gAuld Lang Sync sing, The guests depart and in our hearts in a sad and deep regret, As we try to smile, when we say good-bye, To the boys we love, with a choking sigh For the boys we canit forget. We've seen the sun in a golden blaze, sink as it were to rest, Flooding the lake with sparkling rays that lose themselves in the west 3 We've seen the lake by moonlight with molten gold o'erspread, The waves in skimmering beauty break, But can it be this very lake, That gives not back our dead . 1953 Romantic yarns and tales about a hundred years to-day Are told of the old Stone Frigate at the mouth of Navy Bay, For there it stands, gaunt sentinel, with its many rooms and halls, Strange things it knows yet never tells Of Feu-de-joies and College yells, Within its four stone walls. The little station still is there, the one so well we know, Through which we came together and through which we all must go, The first time just as strangers into strange and unknown lands, The second time as brothers part With brimming eyes and heavy heart, And one last clasp of hand, A thousand Cadets have gone their ways, gone to the ends of the earth, Each in his chosen walk of life to prove the truth of his worth, Some have left indelible marks, in studies or sports or gym And his name stands out in letters of gold as an honour befitting him. But the picture of each and every one whether lowly or of great fame Is hung with a thousand brother Cadets and beneath is inscribed his name. Some may be leaders of men for aye, and some may be easily led But each with the other is comrade when all is done and said, Some are dreamers by nature, but dreamers though they may be Yet everyone is an integral part of his class at the R.M.C. Three years has worked its wonders and we see 'neath a healthy tan That the beardless youth has vanished, giving place to the set of a man. And each one hopes some day to come and see it once again, To cross once more that bridge we crossed in sunshine, snow and rain. Perchance a class reunion brings us each and all once more To call up reminiscences of old times by the score, Surroundings long familiar recall those scenes long past Within the old enclosure with its guns and shells amassed. Oh memory bring us back once more to those far distant days When all of us were soldiers with a soldieris rough-shod ways, Many of us are soldiers still who list for the bugle's call Waking us from our lonely beds to glory or to fall, Truth and duty and valouri' is an emblem of the brave, For a soldier's bed is narrow as is a soldieris grave. Good-bye my Alma Mater, fare you well old comrades all, We may meet again hereafter, for the world is very small, The future lies before us and its ways we cannot tell, But we part, and if forever-then forever fare thee well. We have dreamed our dreams in the springtime, in summer, winter or fall And we waken to grim realities and make answer to Life's call. . . . . ,Tis done but it stands in memory and will for all time to be, And the symbols inscribed in my heart are in gold, and the letters are R.M.C. tTaken from reprinting in the 1944 Revieuzl --ANoNYMoUs FRANQAIS LA FGRMATION DUN CHEF 'EST dans le monde etudiant que reside l'avenir d'une nation. Les eleves actuels de nos colleges et de nos universites occuperont demain les postes de commande du pays. Que ces jeunes gens se dirigent plus-tard vers les professions liberales, les carrieres scientifiques, l'industrie, la finance, ou des carrieres plus directement au service de l'etat comme la politique, la diplomatic ou la carriere des armes, ils auront un influence egalement importante sur le peuple canadien. De la decoule la necessite pour nos etudiants de se bien preparer a leur role de chef. Et cette preparation ne se borne pas at la seule poursuite de leurs etudes academiques. La maitrise des sciences et des mathematiques est, en general necessaire pour bien fonder une profession importante. Mais ce n'est la qu'un minimum du bagage intellectuel necessaire a l'exercice de sa profession. La reussite d'une vie implique aussi l'aptitude a comprendre les problemes et les reactions des autres, la comprehension est sans doute llune des conditions du succes. La culture liberale, ayant pour objet la litterature, l'histoire et la philosophie, c'est-a-dire ce que l'on appelle lietude des arts, est la premiere source de cette education additionnelle. Quoi quien disent les protagonistes des sciences et des mathematiques, le mecanisme aride de ces deux sujets ne peut arriver at donner la splendide culture generale qui est le fruit de l'education liberale. Si les sciences et les mathematiques sont indispensables pour une reussite materielle, les arts le sont autant pour la comprehension de la vie et du monde. Les sciences modernes peuvent nous apporter aise et plaisir, mais ce sont les arts qui nous feront reelle- ment gouter les vraies joies et les vrais bonheurs. Quoique les arts doivent faire partie des etudes academiques, tout n'en reste pas la. Il depend de chaque etudiant de completer sa culture par des lectures et des etudes faites privement dans le domaine des lettres et des arts. Cette methode personnelle est beaucoup plus fertile et efficace que l'espoir d'acquerir une culture gratuite par l'entremise de tuteurs, si competents soient-ils. Evidemment, un certain degre d'instruction est requis avant de pouvoir se livrer avec fruits a lfetude personnelle. Il faut savoir ou puiser le materiel que lion cherche et comment en retirer les plus grands beneiices. Cette me-rhode d'enrichissement intellectuel est donc recommandable, mais seulement at titre de complement aux etudes ante- rieures. Enfin, l'homme qui se destine at exercer une influence importante sur l'avenir de son pays doit posseder la connaissance et la comprehension des problemes at la fois d'ordre materiel, spirituel et moral auxquels le pays est appele a faire face. Le seul moyen de se familiariser avec ces problemes est d'observer la situation actuelle et d'interpreter tous les faits et les incidents qui se presentent, en relation avec ces problemes, s'interesser aux questions aussi bien nationales qu'inter- nationales et se former une opinion sur ces questions: cela est un devoir pour l'etudiant. Appele at prendre une decision dans ce domaine, il devra etre pret at remplir son devoir consciencieusement. Ifeducation est un apprentissage qui commence sur les bancs de l'ecole mais qui se continue pendant toute la vie. Lieducation doit donner at lfhomme la connaissance et la comprehension du but de la vie. Plus nous y attacherons d'im- portance, plus nous serons aptes at faire de notre vie un succes. -No 3522 J.

X. V we Le 13 novembre 1952 avait lieu Pinauguration officielle du C0116-:ge Militaire Royal de Saint-Jean, par le gouverneur general, le Tres Honorable Vincent Massey. Cet evenement marquait la realisation d'un reve tres ancien et la recon- naissance du caractere bilingue des services armes du Canada. Le nouveau College est situe ft Saint-Jean, at vingt-six milles au sud-est de Montreal. Il est erige sur Femplacement du vieux Fort Saint-Jean, au bord de la riviere Richelieu, endroit celebre meme du temps des Francais et clef de la Vallee du Richelieu, route traditionnelle des invasions venues du Sud. C.M.R. vise a un but tout-a-fait semblable a celui des deux autres colleges militaires du Canada: donner a un groupe choisi de jeunes Canadiens, une forma- tion academique et militaire qui fera d'eux des olficiers competents et leur per- mettra de servir efficacement leur pays. C.M.R. fut inaugure cette annee avec 126 cadets dont quarante-cinq sont de langue anglaise. Dans cette premiere annee, on y enseigne le programme d'immatri- culation senior comprenant francais, anglais, histoire, mathematiques, physique et chimie. Le programme de langue offre une occasion exceptionnelle aux cadets des deux langues de se perfectionner dans la langue qui leur est la moins familiere Chaque cours de langue est divise en trois groupes alin de permettre at chacun de progresser rapidement. Parrallelement at l'enseignement academique, C.M.R. offre un programme d'enseignement militaire et de sports tres variezexercices, entrainement physique, rugby, soccer, hockey, ballon-volant, ballon-au-panier, gymnastique, etc., etc. Les activites des cadets en dehors du College sont des plus variees. Cela s'explique facilement car at Saint-jean et dans les environs, on trouve a peu pres tout. Les jouvencelles de lcendroit raffollent des cadets - c'est ce que m'a confie l'une d'entre elles pendant les dernieres Vacances de Noel. Nous souhaitons la meilleure chance possible au nouveau College et esperons que plusieurs de ses anciens viendront completer leur formation at R.M.C. En attendant chaque gentilhomme cadet de Saint-Jean peut se dire fierement avec Rodriguez C.M.R. est jeune, il est vrai, mais aux Colleges bien nes, la valeur ngattend pas le nombre des annees . -N0 3503 M J CHAGGN 1953 91 coMMENT ON TRANSMET UN oRDRE DANS L'ARM1i:E Le Capitaine au I er Sergent Major: Comme vous devez le savoir, demain il y aura eclipse de soleil, ce qui n'ar- rive pas tous les jours.

In mentioning just one or two of the more outstanding activities, the College rifle team certainly deserves Commendation. This team has done exceptionally well, not only by their undefeated season, but also by the fact that they gout-shot such teams as the R.C.M.P. and Hart House, as well as winning the inter-university championship. Besides earning themselves credit, a record like this certainly enhances the reputation of the College. Spirited intramural competition served to stimulate a good deal of interest in volleyball this year, with the result that two very enthusiastic and quite good varsity teams were produced. It would be gratifying to see this emerge as another major varsity sport in the next year or so. At the risk of being criticized for prejudice, I should like to praise the accom- plishments of the track and harriers teams of the past season. Both have developed from literally nothing, three years ago, to intercollegiate championship teams today. The track and field team won their first intercollegiate championship since the war last year but proved that they could again produce a winning squad this year despite the loss of several athletes and the handicap of numerous injuries. The teamls need for a certain 'fdepth should be emphasized, however. Coach McDonell claims that he can make a sprinter out of anyone with just a little natural ability and a good distance runner out of anyone with sufficient fortitude. Moreover, a great need for Held men has traditionally been the team's weak side. Hence, we would urge anyone slightly inclined towards these sports to turn out, try the training, and find himself a place on next year's championship team. In 1924 and 1928, R.M.C. won the Intercollegiate Harriers Championship but ever since it has been monopolized by Toronto and McGill Universities. This year, however, a highly trained team with a genuine will to win recaptured the title for the College where they intend to keep it for some years to come. The calibre of this sport of cross-country running has steadily increased since the College's reopening and will continue to do so until R.M.C. is able to provide dangerous competition for any team in Canada or the United States. --No. 3212 E.

'Twas only a mildly successful season, consider- ing such a won-lost record. But this year's grid season was studded with variety - correction: we lost to Queen's again! However, a highly successful goodwill visit to Halifax compensated somewhat for our failure in the intercolle- giate campaign. Though our team literally flourished with ability, there was some- thing lacking. We trust that brighter skies will dawn on next year's club. OTTAWA - ST. LAWRENCE CONFERENCE In the Ottawa - St. Lawrence Conference action we were scheduled to meet Queen's and McGill in home-and-home encounters with an additional single game against one of the second division clubs, Carleton College being the team drawn by R.M.C. Though Queen's Commets were slated to appear for our initial test on the ex-cadet week-end, a misunderstanding brought the McGill Indians to the local gridiron while the cadets voiced cries of default! against the Tricolour. However, the classy Queen's men Went through another undefeated season to cop the title while We were to suffer a pair of set-backs. We opened the season well with a convincing 2l-2 win over the Indians. The kicking duel, exhibited before our largest crowd since pre-war days, earned our team the rating of 'fchampionship contender . However, a rejuvenated McGill twelve dampened our spirits in an abbreviated return game under the lights at Cornwall by handing our injury-riddled and possibly over-confident team a 16-ll set-back. The absence of a time-clock sent the game into short straight-time quarters and the Montrealers capitalized on our errors in our haste to score. The Carleton College Ravens appeared at R.M.C., accompanied by their attractive cheerleaders-an innovation for our gridiron. The visitors were met only with an attack which, at the start, threatened to stretch the scoreboard reading into triple Hgures. Our boys gave no quarter but were finally halted by the game Ravens at a 50-O count. The Red and White now needed a pair of triumphs over Oueen's to take the title. Following four exhibition experiences in addition to the three league fix- tures, the team was ffreadyi' to make its bid in what was billed as the clash between two of the best intermediate teams in Ontario. The Tricolour emerged the better club with a 20-5 win, but only after a stirring battle. Don Green's superb field goal and a safety touch shunted us ahead temporarily after a 4-O deficit. However, the breaks and speedy Greg McKelvey were against us. Our boys fought their hearts out but the alert Queen's gridders were fast to capitalize on our fumbles and poor passing. Fullback John Hudson was outstanding in the tilt with his yard-gaining plunges while John Kormylo earned plaudits from our rivals for his stellar line play. With the victory Queen's clinched the title. A second game played against Queen's on Nov. 15 pending a C.l.A.U. deci- sion on our claim for the previous default fwhich, much to our disappointment, the C.I.A.U. seemingly deemed unimportantj proved to be our greatest victory though a 13-12 loss on the scoreboard. With juniors Skip McCarthy at half and Jim Palmer at quarter, the club rolled smoothly toward what promised to be a cadet triumph, but which terminated, as so often before, as a victory in the Tri- colour records. McCarthy emerged as the star of the game and promises to be a major factor in our future plans. Palmer, with his clear-minded calling, steadied a previously unpredictable combination. 98 R. M. C. Review EXHIBITIONS Overshadowing all other aspects of the season was our Thanksgiving week- end visit to Halifax, and R.M.C. may well be proud of the team's accomplishments. Unleashing an offensive attack apparently unprecedented in the annals of Mari- time football fans with victories over the top teams in the Province, our fellows really put everything they had into these games, trouncing H.M.C.S. Stadacona, leaders of the Nova Scotia Canadian Football League, 41-9, before the largest crowd ever to see Canadian football in the Maritimes. An even larger crowd turned out to witness a 47-24 win over the defending league champions, Dalhousie University Tigers. Whereas these teams were somewhat weaker, and less exper- ienced than Ontario clubs, our boys happened to be really clicking Cwe never were to regain such formi. Our passing, with the Texas-Christian spread and the sleeper play being particularly in evidence, seemed to amaze the friendly fans. The younger set sought out our embarrassed players for autographs, Syd Lundell being particularly popular. Don Green went on a scoring rampage for 44 points while Hudson, Brodie, Osler and Walt Scott showed up well as did the rest of the line. Had more of us been able to witness the reception accorded our team and the impression we left with the Maritimes, there would certainly be an awakening as to the importance of our football team to the College. Our thanks go out again to the ex-cadets, Naval personnel and citizens of Halifax who treated us royally on our very enjoyable visit. A contrast to the Halifax exhibitions was our showing against the Loyola 'College Warriors. This game, contracted to be played under American blocking rules allowing for unlimited interference, was of little benefit to the team and the College. Our showing, before several thousand disappointed Montreal fans, was miserable. Our offensive was almost nil under the rules, while the field, littered with cadet bodies on each play, resembled a bowling alley on a Saturday night. The most we got out of the 31-O loss was a number of costly injuries which did not help our cause against Queenis. An early season exhibition in Guelph saw us fall before the O.A.C. Aggies by a 14-5 score. Unfortunately, few of our players had at that time returned to the College though the game gave the recruits and a few of the early arrivals from Royal Roads a good opportunity to exhibit their abilities. This spring we will lose fifteen men due to graduation and the loss will be deeply felt. However, there is good material coming up from the Seconds and from Royal Roads. The foundations are strong and with effort we'll again field a good squad. Bouquets go out to those who will no longer don R.M.C. uniforms. Some may bring the College credit on other gridirons but their contributions here will not be forgotten. We'll miss Don Green's spectacular running, Walt Scottis stamina and outstanding ability, Glyn Osleris class and Syd Lundell's speed, John Hudson's remarkable plunging power and all the linemencs efforts in their seldom-praised tasks, Iohn Kormylo, Mog Thomson, Ken MacMillan, Ned Mundell and the others who have given of their best. Capt. T. C. Wagstaff will not be with us next season. In the five years he has been associated with R.M.C. football, uThe Wheel's contributions have been tre- mendous. To these we bid farewell and thanks. Thanks, too, to Dr. Fryer and all the others. components large or small in the '6Big Red Machine?

The R.M.C. second football team is a comparatively new development, but throughout its short existence it has more than proved its value to the College. It was instituted two years ago, primarily for those ufive year planv students who were not eligible for intercollegiate competition, but now it has also become a source of reserves for the R.M.C. football team. The team provides experience for those who have not before played rugby, college or otherwise. lt stands ready with replacements for the senior team as necessity arises, and also gives, to those whose ability warrants it, a chance to advance themselves with the first team. The 1952 season was a successful one, judging by the number of victories and the enjoyment the members derived from playing for the team. They got off to a poor start, the blame being laid mainly on lack of organization. The first game played against Ridley College St. Catharines, over the Thanksgiving weekend, resulted in defeat for R.M.C. It is to be noted, however, that Ridley scored all its points in the first half. Ridley is to be commended for its precise ogranization which led to this victory. The outcome of this game seemed to jar the team to its feet and they were undefeated for the remainder of the season. In a practice scrimmage with the Queen's III football team, however. the R.M.C. squadls tactics proved inferior to those of its opponent. At Bishop's Uni- versity, Lennoxville, R.M.C. won out by a close margin over the Purple and SENIOR SOCCER CGII. .

The Ashbury team, however, did not lose the game through lack of fight or spirit. On Saturday, Nov. 8, in place of a scheduled game with Oueenls, whose third team had been discontinued, R.M.C. ll won out over No. 4 Squadron with a considerable edge. This closed the scheduled season for the R.M.C. ll team, but on the 15th of November, when R.M.C. I. played Oueen's Comets, three members of the seconds , who had joined the senior team for this game, definitely gave a good account of themselves. These were Jim Palmer, Skip McCarthy, and Pete Warren. Two others, who contributed to the good showing of R.M.C. I, were Cadets Harris and Goodfellow. They joined the seniors on several occasions and did their part in strengthening the line. The good spirit of the junior team may be said to have been due chieliy to the capable coaching of SfSgt. F. A. McConnell. The genial leadership of Staff and Dr. Dulmage, and the hard work of the managers, Bob Reynolds and Bob Hambly, certainly made playing for R.M.C. Football II an enjoyable and instruc- tive experience and helped the team to continue the spirited, hard-fighting tradition of the College.

This was the comment of a Varsity player given during one of the regular league games, and it well expresses the attitude of the R.M.C. senior soccer team of 1952. .Although the team did not win any of the scheduled league games, they played a line caliber of soccer. Any team that played R.M.C. knew that they had played a hard game, for what our team lacked in finesse, they made up for in drive and conditioning. The outstanding strength of the R.M.C. team was found in its defensive play. The full backs and the goaler, Homonko, were the envy of the league. The R.M.C. senior squad was always a going concern but simply suffered misfortune. The play all season was affected by injuries to two of the best forwards on the team. ln front of Mike stood a rock-like defense whose robust methods made every play a spirited contest. Tony Hampson who received his grounding in England, the land of soccer, was outstanding. His long kicks and heads up play were very effective in keeping the opponents' scores low. His staunch ally, .sweet innocent William Wray, always presented a thrilling spectacle as he beat some opponent to the hall. His defense work was excellent and marked him as one of the leaguels outstanding players. Jackson, after being changed from left half to centre half at the beginning of the season, used his height and weight to 102 R. M. C. Review advantage. playing a strong, robust game on all occasions, and using his head, literally. to repel many attacks on the R.M.C. goal. Small Al Pickering, who is a very capable center forward, injured his leg several times throughout the season. He was generally counted on to score a goal per game and it was this one goal which would have changed defeat to victory in many of the contests. Pearce, the outstanding forward of the team, played with an injured ankle throughout the season. Even though he missed several games he was the team's high scorer. The College is fortunate that Pearce still has several years left to play as he will help form the backbone of future squads. The team generally lost the advantage during the first half of each of their games. They would allow Varsity or McGill to gain a scoring edge but with the coming of the second half the cadets became the aggressors. They kept the ball in enemy territory through grit and determination, but lacked the scoring punch to make it pay off. It was generally felt that if the games were 15 minutes longer the scores might have been reversed. Hugh Franklin, the team's popular captain could always be counted on to set up plays ably. Dave McPherson, as the rover , played hard vigorous ball all season. These two players will leave a big void with graduation as their years of senior soccer experience coupled with their skill and aggressiveness will be hard to replace. The highlight of the senior soccer season was the winning of the Kingston Whig-Standard Trophy in a game against the Kingston United team. These men were strong, enthusiastic players whose love for soccer would allow them to play anywhere at any time. Thus, it was a very outstanding feat to capture this trophy from them. The boys wanted to win this one and for once their deter- mination was rewarded with victory. Mr. Bratt, the spirited team coach, whose races up and down the side lines were something to see, is very enthusiastic in his plans for next yearis team. He will be building it upon such stalwarts as Bogstad, Setten, Jackson, Pearce, Kirby, Shick. Martin, and Hylton. Mr. Bratt is also counting on the services of several juniors who showed well this year. These men coupled with next year's new cadets should form a powerful aggregation which might well bring a trophy to the College. The College is undecided at this moment whether to carry on in the senior league or to drop to intermediate competition where our team should show well. An exhibition game with OAC, the senior Gntario champions indicated that regardless of league, our team should do well. Results of the Season's Play were as follows: 6 Repair Depot CTrentonJ R.M.C.

Absent -Hulseman, Marshall, Hylton. The second soccer team had a longer season than usual this year, with the first game on Sept. 26, and the last one on Nov. 15. The team as a whole played a good brand of soccer throughout the season, several of the players being pro- moted to the senior team midway through the league. The first of the two games played against T.C.S., at R.M.C. on Nov. 8 was a typical example of the type played by the team. The R.M.C. II was a well- co-ordinated unit and played a hard driving game which resulted in a 4 - 2 victory for R.M.C. The only black spot on our record for the season was the game against U.C.C. in Toronto on Nov. 1, when we lost 6 - 0, against the classier and more experienced U.C.C. team. The record for the season, therefore, stands at one draw, with no score, against Ashbury College in Ottawa, a defeat against U.C..C., and a win and a defeat against T.C.S. It is expected that next year a number of the second team players will be playing on the college varsity squad and therefore it is suggested that a more con-Q centrated effort be made next year to get more people out for soccer. It is a fine game, and deserves more attention in intramural sports. -No. 3236 A. J.

The strength of this year's team was proven by the fact that the loss of such strong contenders as Hercus, Gill and McDougall by iniuries did not prevent R.M.C. from winning the events in which these boys would have been entered. However there is no room for complacency as to the prospects for next year. With the loss of Lundell, Scott, Hercus, Ross, Willsher, Soule and Mc- Dougall from this year's team a rebuilding job will have to be undertaken and this can only be carried out successfully by a far larger turnout of candidates for the 1953 team, especially in the field events in which we have been noticeably weak for the past two years. It is not necessary for the candidates to have been exper- ienced athletes prior to turning out for practice, and all cadets who are willing to make an attempt will be given every opportunity for a place on the track and field team for 1953. On looking back on the past two seasons it has been a great pleasure to work with the R.M.C. squad and my best wishes are extended to the members of the squad and especially to those cadets who will be graduating prior to the 1953 season. -DoN MCDONELL CADET FLEMMING WINS 220 YD. HEAT IN C.I.A.U. 106 R. M. C. Review INTERCOLLEGIATE 1-IARRIERS NDER the capable guidance of Mr. T. D. McDonell a group of runners who placed well in the College Harriers were trained and moulded into the R.M.C. Harriers team. The team this year consisted of 'Fritz' MacDougall. Marc Soule, Ted Tromanhauser. Charlie Kingston, Malcolm MacLead and Norm Sherman. SML Sloat and Mr. McDonell saw to the training aspect, while Pierre Pinsonnault. our able manager, was always ready with the tape and a helping hand. Our first safari took us to Hamilton to compete for the Canadian Senior Harrier Championship. The race was run on a cool but bright Saturday in Dundern Park. The course, consisting of three times around a 2-mile course, was, except for one hilly corner, reasonably fiat. There were several Canadian teams and one American team competing. As it was the first race of the season, the boys did not show up too well in tying for third place with Gladstone Athletic Club of Toronto. The Hamilton Olympic Club was in first place followed closely by the Buffalo team. It was a good race for a season starter, showing us how strong we were and where improve- ment was needed. During the following week the coach administered training in large doses and of the kind required to strengthen these weaknesses. A week later CNov. 159 the Senior Intercollegiate Harriers race was run in Kingston. The course, laid out around the Aluminum Plant, was comprised of ditches, spur lines, cow pastures and one or two country roads. The weather, though dull, was quite suitable for the race, being cool and dry. Six universities were represented: Varsity, Queen's McGill, O.A.C., McMaster and R.M.C., each fielding a team of Hve men. The race was keenly contested throughout but R.M.C. was always somewhere up in the top quarter. The end of the race saw the white team victors of the five mile grind, ahead of Varsity who had held the championship for several years previously. Fritz MacDongall led the R.M.C. quintet in placing second in the field. Following him were MacLeod in fifth place, Soule in seventh and Tromanhauser in ninth to finish off the scoring for the College. This victory marked the first Senior Intercollegiate Championship since the war for the College. On Nov. 22 the R.M.C. distance men successfully defended their Quebec Harrier Championship won last year. The race as usual was run up and down the famous mountain in Montreal. It was a close contest between Montreal Track and Field Club and the R.M.C. team throughout the race for the finish saw the two teams tied when the first four men of each team were counted. Fortunately, an R.M.C. man. Norm Sherman, saved the day by coming in ahead of the next M.T.F.C. clinching the championship for the College. It was a happy team indeed which left for Kingston after that week-end. At this point, thanks should again be extended to Mr. T. D. McDonell, the coach. who has given freely of his time and patience to train the team. This year's victories are indicative of his efforts. Nor should SXL Sloat go unmentionedg it was through his efforts the team received new equipment and was provided for in many other ways and consequently he deserves a hearty Thank you, sir . With this season brought to a close we are looking forward to the next when more and better meets are anticipated. --No. 3252 E. A. TROMANHAUSER. 1953 107 VARSITY TRACK AND FIELD TEAM No sooner had College routine become comfortably organized for a new year than the track and field coach, Mr. McDonell, was over with his big stop watch. critically eyeing the season's prospective athletes. For him, and for the College. this was to be a successful year. Kiar had graduated to McGill, it was true, but in compensation some fine sprinters had come into the recruit year and east from Royal Roads. A great asset to the distance events was the return of Fritz Mac- Dougall after a year's absence from the sport. To his competitors, this lad seemed to be composed chiefly of two commodities-legs and strength-and as the coach observed one night, he was 'fhotter than a two dollar pistol . Track training is taken seriously at R.M.C. One fortunate aspect of this team was that nearly every event found two or three close equals, continually striving to better one another throughout training and competition: Fleming and Morrison were both promising sprinters, Tromanhauser had McLeod to worry him in the mile distance, MacDougall and Gill provided mutual competition in the three miles, and of course Willsher was continually at Ross's heels in the hurdle events. This served to raise the calibre of training so that it didn't take long to develop a promising team. On Oct. 19, a dual track meet was arranged with Oueen's at the College. Generally speaking, the team did quite well. MacDougall set records of 2 min. 6 sec. and 16 min. 6 sec. in the half, and three-mile runs respectively, while Ross gave a good account of himself as well by beating Dyson of Oueen's in the 220 low hurdles, setting a College record of 27.8 sec. On the other hand, both Gill and Hercus strained leg muscles which hindered them for the remainder of the season. The CIAU intermediate track and field meet was held at R.M.C. this year and all concerned were determined to repeat their previous year's victory. A rather weak sun didn't serve to warm up the bitterly cold afternoon as teams from Queen's, McGill, MacDonald, Sir George Williams, and R.M.C. took the field. The College won the meet with a comfortable margin of 22 points between them and Oueen's, their nearest competitors, but it was nearly all on the strength of the track events as we seem to be traditionally weak in field men. Lundell and Flemming ran a very good 220-yard dash, trying, each with a time of 23.6 sec.. while Tromanhauser and McLeod ran an exciting half-mile in 2 min. 7.4 sec. with Tromanhauser edging ahead at the finish. Meet records were set by Troman- hauser in the half-mile, Soule's 16 min. 37.7 sec. for the three-mile run, and Ross's 26.9 sec. for the low hurdles which replaced his own College record for the second time this season. McLeod cleared the bar at 5 ft. 5 in. the high jump, falling a mere 14, in. short of the meet record. The track season as a whole was certainly a successful one and it is en- couraging to know that there are a number of very promising lads in the lower years who will replace the athletes who graduate, as time goes on. Credit for any success is entirely due to the expert coaching of Mr. McDonell, in the first place, and secondly, to the wise and careful management of SXL Sloat. -No. 3212 E. K. GILL INTERCOLLEGIATE TENNIS TOURNAMENT HE St. Lawrence -Ottawa Valley Conference Intermediate Inter-collegiate Tennis Meet was held this year at MacDonald College just outside Montreal. over the weekend of Oct. 16 -17 -18. It was very encouraging to see an entry of six teams this year as opposed to the four teams which participated in the tournament last year at R.M.C. The competing teams were Oueen's, Sir George Williams, Loyola, Carleton, MacDonald and R.M.C. Each team was allowed a maximum of five players, two of which were to be placed in an A 108 R. M. C. Review section. two in a B section, and one to be kept as a spare to play three matches against each of the other colleges - an A singles, a B singles, and a doubles match which could include the spare player if desired. As a result, each team played I5 matches, and one point was given for each win recorded. Although the meet started on the Friday morning, Queen's and R.M.C. did not arrive until Saturday morning, and hence had to play practically all their matches in one day, which proved to be quite a strain on the players. Play started about IO a.m. and continued until approximately 7 p.m. at which time it was necessary to play under the lights. It was eventually found necessary for Queens and R.M.C. to play two matches on Sunday morning. Unfortunately, the weather was very dull and cold, and this rather detracted from the enjoyment of the tournament, but it was excellently run by the students at MacDonald. Queensi, as they did last year, walked over their opponents, and won quite handily, with R.M.C. and Carleton battling it out for second place, finally won by Carleton. R.M.C. was represented in this tournament by Cadets Macdonnell and McPherson in the group, Gross and Pinsonnault in the HB group, and Powis, the spare, who took part in some of the doubles matches. All live players did well, and the third place standing in the final results was a very creditable showing. In the A group, three of the tive matches played were won, two by MacPherson and one by Macdonnell, while in the MB group, two singles matches were won, one by each of Gross and Pinsonnault. Of the tive doubles matches, R.M.C. won three, and each time that a doubles team took to the court, it seemed that a different combination was in evidence, this was because there were invariably at least two or three of the team members participating in other matches at the same time. FINAL STANDINGS Queen's 14 Carleton 10 R.M.C. 8 Loyola 6 Sir George Williams 4 MacDonald 3 -No. 2935 D. B. MCPHERSON 1953 1.09 SENIOR BASKETBALL HE 1952-53 basketball season came to a halt on Feb. 28 with R.M.C. in a position of five wins and four losses in the Senior St. Lawrence Conference. At the time of writing, the standings of the various teams composing the Conference have not been tabulated as a number of games must still be run off. On the whole, despite the relatively large number of losses, it is felt that with the superb coaching of Staff Sergeant McConell and the excellent logistics control by the Managerial Staff of three cadets, the basketball team floored by R.M.C. this season was one of the smoothest running affairs that this College has seen since the opening in 448. The premier scheduled performance took place against Queen's University in the latter's gym, Nov. 29. The play during the first half was kept fairly even, but with the end of the intermission period and the beginning of the second half, the polished and well drilled play-making of the Queen's men began to pay divi- dends for them to the tune of 26 points. While the Red and White's shooting average dropped to 1275 Sid Lundell, shooting his set shot from the corner, was high scorer with 14 points. Wright and Hampson were in there pitching also, with 7 points apiece. The second game against Loyola in the Queen's Gym was more up to the standard of basketball playing expected of this school. The nervousness and tense- ness of the Queen's tilt a week before, was again in the ranks of the Red and White team, but by the end of the half everybody had a good feel of the ball, and conhdence then took over the team. The half-time scoreboard read 30-17 for the Redmen. After the usual repast of oranges and choice words by ffStaff , the boys entered the second half and took the game over completely, racking up a score of more than 40 points. Chief point-catcher was again ffSmellyM Lundell with a total of 22 to his credit, followed closely by Burry and Brodie. Bob Murray, a former big 'fsneezel' in the Ottawa intercollegiate basketball circles, blossomed forth with a fine display of ball handling and checking which was to persist for the remainder of the season in varying degrees. The new year's schedule started off in the gym of McGill University with a loss being sustained by the cage-crew from Kingston. The first half certainly belonged to McGill and by the time R.M.C. recovered from the initial shock, the half-time score was tabulated at 27-19 for the hosts. Coming back for the second half, quaking in their shoes, a condition brought about by a few searing comments from the usually mild mannered HStaff , the guests finally got down to business. With but 40 seconds to go the score read 49-48 for McGill. However, as fortune would have it, a shot fired by a McGillite slammed home and the game finished with a score of 51-48 for McGill. A very trying game to lose, that it was. Further entertainment was to be had for those who remained behind at this game. It seems that the referee wouldn't believe the official scorer's final tally, so that after a few words were exchanged between the two. a pull-and-push affair commenced over the score book. Thanks must be extended to the McGill coach for ceasing the warlike activities and bringing peace by giving the book to the referee, who, it was admitted by both teams, did not know too much about the game of basketball. The next day three station wagons rolled to a stop outside the gym of Bishop's University in Lennoxville, P.Q., after a long four and a half hour drive through ice, snow, and rain. Throughout the whole first half shooting averages were of the lowest calibre, ending with a 16-16 tally. After the half, the game became decid- edly rough-rough to the point where Murray and Burry were withdrawn with five penalties apiece. However, conditions being what they were, the R.M.C. crew pulled ahead of the hosts to bang home 26 more points, the game ending with a SENIOR BASKETBALL E E 3 E fi L1-I si c: .c E GS U U. c: we 'O-4 1: .EE T6 CQ cr o VJ : OD 3-1 GJ U-4 O , Murray, C. 2 'U O 3-4 m E Q J: CU L.

The Bishop's team seemed to be much younger and smaller than the R.M.C. team, but even with that their zone defense kept the Redmen's scoring potential at a low ebb. It was felt that this game was the most rugged and the roughest of the season. On Feb. 6, R.M.C. played host to the Universite de Montreal. The Redmen started off in their customary slow manner and by the mid-way mark they were trailing with a 29-22 score. Something must have occurred in the R.M.C. dressing room during the half-time period, for when they came back on the floor the whole team began to click 100fk in anything they attempted. An amazing 62 points was netted in this last half, while U. de M. eked out a paltry 29 points. Tom Zeigler starred here with his close checking, while Wright, Ballantyne, and Lundell attri- buted the highest individual scores of 18, 12, and 15 respectively to help push the total up to 84 with which the game came to a close. Feb.20 saw the cadet cage-crew at Ottawa University playing a fair game amid the smell of fried fish and the screaming and yelling of innumerable youngsters around the sidelines of the very small gym. After slipping and sliding around for a short spell, the cadets came to halt at half-time, having rammed 27 points home to Ottawa U's 28. However, the second half proves their undoing and Ottawa U, led by a very well experienced dribbler, Lefaive, chalked up 39 points to R.M.C.'s 20. It was a sorry loss to take for R.M.C. had the confidence and ability to take it hands down, but it was just one of those things. The following evening Carleton College played hosts to R.M.C. in the Fisher High School Gym in Ottawa. This proved to be the best game of the year for the R.M.C. team. After the mid-way period had commenced the Red and White ran through their plays like clock-work, and by the end of the game 50 points had been racked up. Brodie was high scorer here. Even though the eager R.M.C. crew showed forth with their dazzling exhibition, the game was not decided until the last twenty seconds when Carleton failed to score two foul shots and R.M.C. just threw the ball around till the whistle ended the game. The Red and White team arrived in Ottawa on Feb. 13 to play Sir George Williams. They led the game for the first half with a score of 30-21 with Bob Murray, playing in his home town, being the chief point-getter. What occurred in the second half, nobody knows. but it seems that S.G.W. team took over the ball and held the rest of the game while R.M.C. took on a defensive attitude. The game ended with R.M.C. at the short end of a 48-58 score. The last game of the season for the Red and White took place in their gym with the MacDonald team being their guests. It was quite obvious from the very first that the R.M.C. team had the game sewn up. At the mid-way point the score- board showed R.M.C. with over twice the score of the MacDonald team. The second half was spent in acquiring the greatest number of points as possible. Hampson, even though he was sent off with live fouls, Lundell, Wright, and Gall were the chief goal-getters in the game, which ended with the final score board of the season reading 65-35. -No. 3185 F.

Griesbach, Corej, Anderson. Absent -Harris, French. R.M.C. Juniors, coached by Staff McConnell, are well on their way to another championship. The team finished the regular season at the top of the league, having won all of their scheduled games but two, one of which ended in a tie. The team this year was composed of all new players, none of last year's team members being eligible. Staff McConnell based all his hopes on the recruits, and despite the fact that none of these boys had ever played together as a team, they did very well. Sparked by Schofield, Russell, Boggs, and McCarthy, the Juniors proved that they were championship material. With Queen's, the traditional rivals of R.M.C., dropping out, as well as Vimy, the league was reduced to three teams - Y.M.C.A., K.C.V.I. and R.M.C. K.C.V.I. proved to be the Red and White's strongest opponent. After easily win- ning 3 games from a much weaker Y.M.C.A. quintet, R.M.C. could only salvage a win and a tie in 3 encounters with the K.C.V.I. squad. The Juniors went down to their first defeat of the season ending at the short end of a 55-39 score. A 47-47 tie with the same team forced a home-and-home total point series which will be played at a later date to decide the championship. The Junior Redmen played a few exhibition games, two against Regiopolis, one with Cataraqui and another with Albert College in Belleville. The Red and White team emerged victorious in two of these encounters and lost in their game with Albert College. Minus the services of three of their first string players and playing against a much faster and more experienced team, the cadets suffered one of their worst defeats of the season. 1953 113 A new event took place this year when a team from the newly opened College Militaire Royale came down to play an exhibition game with the Juniors. The R.M.C. squad easily won the first encounter by a score of 55-36 and are to travel to St. Jean for the second game. It is hoped that this basketball tournament between the Colleges will become an annual event. With the exception of their trip to St. Jean, the Juniors did not travel, but nevertheless their league schedule plus the exhibition games kept the cadets busy. Many of this year's players will still be eligible for the Junior team next season, and we should be able to look forward to another successful year. --No. 3416 P.

'I V1 1953 115 SENIOR HOCKEY OLLEGE hockey started early in November when the first practices were held in preparation for the Kingston Senior City League schedule. With Bud White, Dave Hargraft, Bill Hough, Johnny Waterston, Bugs Farrell and Larry Grace gone, Coach Yip Radley was faced with an intensive rebuilding program. From the Recruit Class came Terry Yates, a classy centre, Clint Justice and John Rutherford, two good defencemen, and Bill McMurtry and Bob Sexsmith. Royal Roads helped out with Alex Marshall and John Neroutsos, and Walter Scott was back after a year's absence due to a knee injury. With these players and the nucleus from last year's team the College commenced one of its longest and toughest hockey seasons. Entering the Senior City League before Christmas the squad went undefeated until the start of exams forced the team to withdraw and pass up the playoffs. Once again the results of the Christmas exams produced that unfortunate phenomena - the Home Team and the Away Team - with the result that, among other things, a proposed trip to the Maritimes had to be cancelled. One might almost suppose that if an Inter-collegiate Hockey squad were ever to emerge unscathed from Christmas exams R.M.C. will cut quite a swath through the Ottawa-St. Lawrence Conference. The Conference schedule started in January, and exhibition games were -arranged in home-and-home series against University of Toronto Intermediates. In both games against U. of T., the College suffered decisive defeats, but they served to show what sufficient practice could do. The Varsity team were strong, well conditioned skaters which made all the difference. Within the Conference itself, Loyola again was the class of the league. The annual tussel with Queen's produced the best game of the season as it always does, ending as it did in a 4-4 tie. The double loss on the Montreal weekend to Loyola and McGill was some- what cushioned by the Ex-Cadets' beer and oyster party and Paul Boivin who hasnit changed a bit. The annual game with U.S.M.A., held this year at the 'Point, unfortunately saw the Cup back in our hands. The teams were very evenly matched and it proved to be a superlative game of open hard-fought hockey. The goals were scored in pairs, one by each side, and it was only for a few minutes at a time that the game was not a stalemate. When the Kaydets scored their fifth, the three remaining minutes were not enough for R.M.C. to tally again. The team had a wonderful time in spite of the loss. The West Point game served to end four years of College hockey for Rod Hull. Tad Dowsley, Glyn Osler, Jack Sargent and Walter Scott, all of whom graduate come June. However, there are several excellent prospects down at C.M.R. and Royal Roads. SCORE SUMMARY Dec. 4 - R.M.C. - Sir George Williams 3 - l Jan. 14 R.M.C. Tamworth Jan. 24 R.M.C.

Juniors retained the Kingston Junior City Hockey League Championship. ln the rather abbreviated regular season play, the cadets finished in a first place tie, with a record of two wins and a loss. The semi-finals had R.M.C. matched with Westport Flyers who had been rated during league play as the team to beat. However, the Flyers were completely outclassed, and when the final bell ended the one-sided contest, the high-flying cadets were on the long end of an ll-1 count. lt was in this game that left winger Doug Sexsmith distinguished himself with a spectacular five goal effort. The R.M.C. Giants then advanced into the final round against Queen's, at whose hands they had suffered their only previous defeat. However, the Red and White displaying their best hockey of the season, and a will to win that could not be denied, triumphed over the Tricolor in two straight games 3-2, and 2-1. The scores are certainly indicative of the closeness of the play, and it was that driving spirit of the R.M.C. team that proved to be the greatest factor in the defeat of the well balanced Queen's squad. This series saw the cadets playing without several key players. John Naudie, the upantless wonder of the defense, and Griffin-Beale, who was absent from the lineup in order to devote more time to his white belt, were both serious losses, however, the return of Beauparlant to the team greatly bolstered the attack. 1953 117 The first game was scarcely three minutes old when Queen's had jumped into a commanding two goal lead. Although the cadets forced the play for the remainder of the game, it was only in the dying moments that they were able to overcome the lads from Windbreaker U'. The second game saw R.M.C. tally first, only to have the Gaels tie it up early in the second. The cadets came right back and scored what proved to be the deciding goal in this same period. The third period was marked by hard hitting, wide open play with both goalies being forced to come up with spectacular saves, especially Phelan in the R.M.C. nets, in the dying moments, when the cadets were playing with two men in the penalty box. The defeat of Queen's, and the success of the Juniors, was the result of well co-ordinated team play. Therefore, it is difficult to single out any individuals. In goal Tony Phelan was always dependable, and often brilliant, on defense John Rutherford, Norm Kelly, and Clint Justice played solid, two-way hockey. The forward lines of Beauparlant, Bird, Soutar, Sexsmith, Yatess, McMurtry, and Marshall, Neroutsos, MacGregor, provided a strong well balanced attack. R.M.C. - C.M.R. EXHIBITION SERIES This season was also marked by the initiation of a home-and-home series between R.M.C. II and College Militaire Royale de Saint-Jean. It is hoped that these games will become an annual event, as they help promote much under- standing and fellowship, as well as provide a friendly but spirited rivalry between the two colleges. This year the honours were evenly divided as R.M.C. won the 'lirst encounter at Kingston 4-l, only to have the decision reversed a week later at Saint-Jean by a 5-3 count. -No. 3532 W. R.

I lflwfwlgg , Q 4 1 ' 1953 119 THE TIME HAS COME For thirty years the annual hockey match between R.M.C. and the U.S.M.A. has been internationally famous as an exempliflcation of sportsmanship. lt has gained the recognition and praise of the professional as well as of the amateur sporting world. Why? In part, because it is to the vanquished team that the trophy is awarded. In part, too, because of the colour and enthusiasm which is packed into the outstanding event. But it cannot be denied that the series owes its fame to the fact that, in the twenty-two games played thus far, no player has ever been awarded a penalty. It is the only game in hockey in which the penalty box is reserved for spectators. And so the annual game receives the attention of nation-wide press represen- tatives. Clt is, in fact, one of all-too-few ways in which R.M.C. is publicizedj At a period during which hockey is being increasingly condemned, untold thousands of innocent readers are led to believe that this famed game reigns as the sole re- maining exhibition of sportsmanlike hockey, played according to the rules. How gullible can people be! We do not herein intend to claim that either of the military institutions has adopted a uwin at all costs policy toward the hockey series. The sportsmanship, the colour, and the thrills have, fortunately, somehow survived the apparently new approach: we are sacrificing hockey for tradition! Few of the West Point suporters have any conception of what good hockey actually looks like and we suspect that most Kaydets are entirely unfamiliar with the nner points of the game. What they saw this year must have made them wonder why Canadians are still ballyhooed to such an extent as masters of the art when their own U.S.M.A. team has proved itself master of the Canadians by winning five of the last seven games. The Smith Arena at West Point reputedly boasts the largest ice hockey surface on the North American Continent C2357 X 95'J. A more important consideration is the conspicuous absence of the center red line, the line which in Canada greatly restricts the area over which forward passes may be received. Its absence on the U.S.M.A. ice allows for a phenomenally large passing area - in fact, forward pass- ing is seemingly almost unrestricted. The Kaydets have mastered this lengthy for- ward pass. It is significant to note that, before the introduction of the centre line to the hockey rules, R.M.C. had gone undefeated in the first fifteen games. Since the College reopened, and with the new red line in vogue, R.M.C. has not lost at home, but has failed to win at West Point! The Kaydets rate highly as hockeyists. We emphasize that they defeated R.M.C. this year strictly on their consistent use of fundamental hockey. Funda- mental hockey triumphed over better skating. The Canadian team's skating ability was matched by Army's superb conditioning. The R.M.C. cadets, accustomed to a smaler ice surface, were visibly tired in short order by the Smith rink. Here. in Kingston, the R.M.C. team should continue to win on the strength of its superior skating ability. However, we have yet to derive a strategy for winning at the Point. There were no penalties awarded. Tradition! From the above considerations it may be concluded that the results of the games played depend on certain factors other than the absence of penalties. There is no basis for suggesting that the intro- duction of penalties to the game would sway the outcome, in either team's favour. 120 R. M. C. Review 3. L 7 K X in 1 w Nia? r. '- Un-V Tm-' PE NAUTY sox T ll' will The possibility of a man actually serving a penalty would produce nothing but better hockey. The last two years have proved conclusively that this introduction is. now an absolute essential if the series is to be maintained within the bounds of sportsmanship. It is said that officials are not specifically instructed to avoid awarding pen- alties. We have had the pleasure of witnessing only two of these internationally famous encounters, loosely termed hockey. We trust that such exhibitions will be finally outlawed by the introduction of the penalty. Last year's game at Kingston could have been rated among the roughest on record. No penalties. This year's meeting was much the same, with perhaps more violations of a milder type. Holding, hooking, elbowing, and tripping seemed to- be integral parts of the sport. Since we were personally carried away with the enthusiasm at the game, we saw the action with perhaps perjudiced eyes. But we're sure we saw Sexsmith elbowed to the ice by a gigantic defenceman twice in the space of one minute. On one occasion, two opposing men all but entered the stages of exchanging blows. West Point scored one goal after a cadet had been tripped. The zenith was reached when, with four minutes remaining, R.M.C.'s Griffin-Beale, breaking away with possibly the winning goal on his stick, was openly tripped by two Kaydets. Such instances as these were appreciated by no one. And it need not be assumed that the R.M.C. men acted as angels. They were perhaps not as fortunate. Gne R.M.C. attempt at committing a violation resulted directly in West Point goal. What is most surprising to us is the fact that there has been, thus far, little in the way of serious injuries. It is surely obvious that this so-called hockey cannot continue in its present state without mishaps. It is a very rare feat indeed, in hockey, for teams to carry on, such as these two clubs have in the past two years, without incurring serious physical injury. Curiously enough, there was very little body contact near the boards at U.S.M.A. Most of the body punishment was ab- sorbed in the more dangerous area of the centre ice lane. Here, last year, the boards were heavily pounded. Lady Luck must surely bless these games. An injury is long overdue. Will it be worth it? 1953 121 The local press reported this year that 'fthe hand of mercy was extended to the limit by the referees who neglected to issue a single penalty although they could have assessed the keen rivals the high total of seventeen if they had not been swayed by tradition. We consider the estimate to be a conservative one. Fortun- ately, the referees had the courage to at least indicate that they recognized viola- tions. Time and time again they stopped the play for face-offs for infractions which normally would have warranted penalties. Why were these offenders not given penalties? Perhaps because, thirty years ago, two teams went through a game without committing a violation serious enough to warrant, what they knew then, might be a costly penalty. Today the rivals take to the ice inwardly assured that no penalty will be awarded. No player goes out with the intention of committing a deliberate violation. However, since he knows that no penalty prejudicial to his team will be forth- coming, he is less likely to think twice before acting. Under ordinary game condi- tions a player might conceivably foresee the possible consequences. ln a series such as this, tension reigns supreme and impulse gives way to thought. This is the reason for rules in hockey, rules which are meant to protect the game as we!! as the players. It is time that this hockey game be played as hockey should be played. If the players could only be convinced that a penalty would definitely result from any vio- lation, we would see the return of hockey. It will not be easy to break with tradition but in our estimation, the referee who awards the first penalty will have rendured a service to this game of hockey. It does not follow that there must be penalties. We hope that there will never be a penalty - providing that none is deserved. We actually believe that the cadets would play the game without committing infrac- tions. But first the players must be convinced - assure the Press beforehand, if necessary - that penalties will be '4called . The respective cadets hold no grudge against each other for any violations. They take it in good heart and there is never a word of alibi to suggest that a parti- cular violation caused a loss. Fortunately, it is still the game and the sportsmanship which is important to the players. However, perhaps they fail to realize that the game has reached the point where it is approaching ruin. They undoubtedly do not realize that they are committing violations in a manner which makes these infractions appear to be flagrant to the critical spectator. If the players are actually satisfied by the prevailing situation, it should undoubtedly remain as is. But. we believe that it is in the interest of both the players and the sport that the penalty- providing rules be enforced. The sport as it is, is unfair to the coach, criminal to the players, and unstimu- lating to the spectators. For excitement, for spectacle, and for sportsmanship, the annual West Point-R.M.C. game ranks as paramount in international athletic competition and in amateur sports circles. For hockey it must be rated as a detri- ment to the sport. We have a choice, then. We sincerely hope that in the future the referees will not hesitate to award penalties for violations. A better method can not be found to ensure that there will not be such recurring flagrant infractions as have appeared in vast numbers in the last two years. If we choose to remain bound to tradition, then let's change the name of this game to something more appropriate. Such exhibitions should not be erroneously associated, especially internationally, with Canada's national sport. -No. 3201 A. E. CAMBON 122 R. M. C. Review VOLLEYBALL we i ' .

The volleyball organization at the College was much better this year, but still left much to be desired. In the hope of gaining more recognition as a major College sport, two separate teams were formed. To give an indication of the inter- est shown for the game, twenty-four cadets turned out regularly for practice. A Junior team was formed to provide the necessary continuity of flow of experienced players for the Senior team. Most of the Juniors had to be taught team volleyball and our Usystemi' from first principles. They learned very quickly, and gave their opposition very good games. The Juniors played against local teams, defeating Vimy and Kingston Y.M.C.A. CChineseJ, and losing to the Staff College 2 - 3. During the Royal Roads Tournament, the Junior team upheld the honour of the College by defeating their opponents 2-1. If nowhere else, the Junior team proved its worth during this competition. The Senior team was very strong this year. As a warm-up to the trip to- Toronto, a team from Queenis Science 354 was defeated during the Sports Night. In Toronto, an exhibition tournament was held with teams from Hamilton Y.M.C.A., Toronto Kodak, and R.M.C. The former two are the strongest teams in the Ontario Intermediate loop. The College team played well, and were defin- itely on a par with their opposition. Their record in the tournament of three losses and one win C9-15, 9-15, 15-3, 13-155, indicates that, given the opportunity to- play against good opposition, the Senior team can be a credit to the College. An invitation to enter the Ontario Intermediate Finals had to be passed up because- of the interference with final examinations. Next year, both the Senior and Junior teams should be much stronger, and it is hoped that a definite schedule may be drawn up before the season gets under Way' -No. 2908 A.

HIS year our swim team has done extremely well in intercollegiate swimm- ing circles, and the final event of the season carried off first honours in the Ottawa-St. Lawrence Conference. Along with some additions to the team from Royal Roads, such as Rinfret. Clendinnen, and MacDonnell, and strengthened bv two recruits, Morrison and Freill, the members of last year's team, Luke, Cockfield, Rutherford, Jenneliens. Scott, MacDougall, Reid, and Day, the captain of this year's squad, started train- ing a few weeks previous to the Christmas vacation. Immediately after returning to college, on Jan. 10, we were taking part in our first meets of the season against U. of T. in Toronto. Although we lost, 37 points to 32, we did win four events, which promised possibly better results after more training. The next meet was on Jan. 24, a dual meet against Queens This was a very closely contested meet, with the final race of the evening, th 200 yds. free style relay, deciding the met in favour of R.M.C., 37 points to 35. When, on the weekend of Feb. 7 the swim team went down to Montreal to meet the very strong Y.M.C.A. team, we were defeated by the score of 39 points to 27. Despite this score it was a very good meet and it is hoped to make it an annual meet from now on. On the evening of Feb. 16 the R.M.C. team were guests at the Western Ontario Intercollegiate Intermediate Swimming Meet at Hamilton. Here, out of ten events, the R.M.C. team did very well indeed and carried off four firsts, three seconds, and three third places. Since we were only allowed on man per event, one 1953 125 can see just how well we must have done, swimming against U. of T., McMaster University, and O.A.C. The weekend of Feb. 21 was the Royal Roads weekend, and the members of the swim team in first and second year, along with other members of the first two years defeated the Royal Roads swimmers by 7 points to 3 - another thrilling and keenly contested meet. The following weekend, on Feb. 28, the R.M.C. team played host to a very fine team from T.C.S. We carried away first place honours with a total score of 46 points to 29. On March 7, R.M.C. were hosts to McGill, Laval, and Queen's when the Ottawa-St. Lawrence Conference Swimming Championships were held in our pool. This meet was a very closely and keenly contested competition, and it was not until the end of the last event that the R.M.C. team came out to win with R.M.C. two points ahead of Queen's, with McGill and Laval taking third and fourth places respectively. As an indication of how close the meet was, the spread of points between first and last was only six. From the foregoing it can be seen that the R.M.C. swim team did an excellent job of building up the prestige of the College in the intercollegiate sports world. As an indication of how much the team has improved this year, every single R.M.C. record, except for the 50 yds. breastroke, has either been equaled or broken. Bob Morrison's time of 24.3 secs. for the 50 yds. free style is better than the senior intercollegiate record of 1951, and is 0.5 secs. behind the new record of 23.8 secs. Although I must stress the fact that the successes of the team this year have primarily been real team efforts, I feel that we must offer hearty congratulations to Morrison, who has lost only one race all season, and that only because he managed to get himself tangled up in the lane marker. Finally, I know it is the wish of every member of the swim team to offer his sincere thanks and appreciation to the two people most responsible for the achieve- ments of the team this year - Wing Commander Snider, the staff representative, and Flight-Sergeant Stockdale. the coach. It is hoped that they will both continue in the above mentioned capacities next season. -No. 3350 T. W. PEARCE PISTOL TEAM This year's pistol team, composed of fifteen cadets under the guidance of R.S.M. Coggins, had quite a busy and profitable season. Busy, because of the number of competitions it entered, and profitable because of the experience gained by those who will form the nucleus of next year's squad. The first regular match for the team was in Toronto when we came up against the Hart House group. This team is composed of graduates of the University of Toronto and is captained by Dr. Lucas, who for the past three years has been acting as our host during shoots in Toronto. This year's competition consisted only of one slow-fire target and that being a specialty with our squad we were able to take the match 411 to 398. This is a slightly wider margin of victory than we were able to obtain last year when the score was 852 to 846 in favour of R.M.C. The second match for the pistol team was in Ottawa with the R.C.M.P. from Nw division. Our team was counting on avenging the 855 to 786 beating that was handed to us last year, but once again the Mounties'1 were a little too strong. The margin was a good deal narrower, however, 1298 to 1265, and perhaps next year the College team, strengthened by the up-and-coming products of the inter- squadron shoots, can turn the tables. 126 R. M. C. Review The biggest contest of the year was, of course, the three-way shoot with U.S.M.A. and Annapolis at West Point. lt was the first of its kind with the three best known Military Colleges on the North American Continent striving for the honours. The final results gave Army top place with Navy a very close second. R.M.C. came third but what the team lost in points it gained in experience. After the competition it was suggested that the same contest be repeated here at R.M.C. next year and the plan met with a great deal of enthusiasm from all three teams. Although just an idea as yet, everyone feels that it has great possi- bilities. All in all, it has been a fairly successful season as far as progress in improving the standard of team shooting goes. We do, however, feel that we are seriously handicapped by a lack of proper equipment. That is to say, all the competitions are fired slow, timed and rapid and with only a few owning automatics, it makes it rather difficult to compete successfully with a team in which all the members are firing automatics. It is quite an expensive proposition for an individual to purchase an automatic for himself and so we can only hope that someday it will be arranged that the College supplies such firearms. -No, 3194 B. D. BLAIR RIFLE TEAM Everyone at R.M.C. will agree that the 1952-53 season of rifle shooting at the College was one of the best since the College reopened. Un the return of the cadets in September, the previous year's rifle and pistol executive met and planned the course of attack for the coming term. They also discussed a system for awarding Crossed Rifles to the cadets with high scores over the course of the year's shooting. The term from September till the beginning of the Christmas exams saw no competitions with outside teams. However, the range was constantly crowded with cadets practicing for the anticipated matches, the first of which was with the R.C.M.P. Division A team from Gttawa. The R.C.M.P. visited the College in reciprocation of the visit paid to Ottawa by the College rifie team the previous year. The cadets defeated the Mounties in a very good and very close match? chalking up their first win of the year. The following week, the College played host to seventeen teams from several different universities, including Queens, Ottawa. Montreal, Toronto and Western, to fire an inter-university match, spon- sored and conducted by Queen's University. R.M.C. had two teams entered which placed first and second with McMaster C.O.T.C. placing third. R.M.C. thus won the trophy which had been dominated by McGill in the past few years. This turned out to be one of the best matches of the year and is to become an annual event. On Feb. 14 the rifle team travelled to Montreal for a competition with the McGill C.O.T.C. rifie team in the Currie Memorial Gymnasium. Here again the team made a fine showing, defeating the McGill team in a good match. The final competition for the rifie team saw the visiting Royal Roads rifle team from Victoria come out with a considerable lead to defeat the cadets from R.M.C. for the first time since the tournament between the two Colleges began, on the reopening of R.M.C. The calibre of the shooting of the Royal Roads team promises a good match when R.M.C. travels to Victoria next year. It is rumoured that the College has set its sights on the Sherwood Cup for Dominion Rifle Shooting for 1953. The number one team placed seventh in the dominion on the January D.C.R.A. shoot and could realize this ambition. In any case, good luck is wished them in their quest. -No. 3032 A. S.

SKIING KIING at the College this year was slightly marred by a general lack of snow, but both the ski club and team managed to get a few weekend trips. The addition of Professor Vigneau to the College staff provided the ski team with a very able instructor and under his guidance the team showed improve- ment over last year. Before the Hrst meet at Ottawa the team had two practice trips to Snow Ridge but the snow conditions there were poor and there wasn't an oppor- tunity to try any jumping. In the Ottawa meet Cadet MacDonnell came third in the jumping and the College team were third out of five colleges including Oueen's, Carleton, and Paul Smith. The chances of the College were definitely affected by injuries to Morewood, Howe and McLeod at Snow Ridge. In the next meet at Snow Ridge the College team came third against Oueen's and the Ottawa Ski Club. However, Cadets MacDonnell and Ross brought in a second and two fifths for the College. In the final meet of the year, at St. Sauvaur, the College placed sixth out of eight, in C.I.A.U. competition, against McGill, Oueen's, MacDonald, Laval, Uni- versity of Montreal, Toronto, and Sir George Williams. This meet was very good experience for the team as they were skiing with Olympic Skiers. Most of the members of our team are in 'nrst and second year and in the years to come should be an even greater credit to the College. The ski club went down to Snow Ridge three times this year, and even when the snow was poor everyone enjoyed the trip. Professor Vigneau gave instruction to the cadets and they found it a great help. Many thanks should be given to Pro- fessor Boyle who managed the ski club this season and also helped with the arrang- ing of the trips to Snow Ridge. It is hoped that there will be more trips for the club next year as their success was verified by the seventy cadets that went to Snow Ridge this winter. The ski team under Professor Vigneau is expected to do much better and everyone wishes them the best of luck. -NO. 3306 T. POCOCK 128 R. M. C. Review SQUASH To most cadets that barnlike building on the other side of the football field could be just another lab, but to the select few who have been enlightened this is not far from the truth. In this cold white building, unknown to the poor unfor- tunates who daily undergo the agonies of the rifle range, water-softball, or floor hockey, the exponents of the science known as f'squash carry on their research under the careful guidance of Dr. Boyle and Dr. Gibbons. Their investigations have led to the discovery of the First Law of Squash: A hard rubber ball, having bounced off six walls, will always land in the most distant corner? This year the enthusiasts of three-dimensional ping-pong formed a College Squash Team and arranged home-and-home matches with Trinity College School, Port Hope. Unfortunately, T.C.S. were not so interested- in the mathematical problems involved as they were in winning the games, and the result was that R.M.C. won only three out of twenty matches. Anthony Laileur, Ontario Junior Champion, had little trouble with any of the R.M.C. team. Dave MacPherson, R.M.C. captain, defeated the T.C.S. No. 2 Massey in both tries. The other R.M.C. win was scored by Bill Wray, R.M.C. No. 3, who defeated Tony Brewer in the match at R.M.C. Trinity College School, which developed Ernie Howard, the Canadian and American Open Squash Champion, plays very high calibre squash, but it is hoped that with the new interest in squash at the College we will be able to offer better competition next year.

TOURNAMENT BASKETBALL HIS first event of the annual tournament was played on Friday afternoon and proved to be one of the most exciting. The game was fast, wide-open and hard-fought to the very last second. Royal Roads opened up the scoring after a very few seconds. As an indication of what the eager crowd could expect, the score stood at 4-3 for R.M.C. after only the first minute. R.M.C. then proveeded to build up a comfortable 32-19 margin, but stood by helpless as Royal Roads whittled down the lead to 34-28 for R.M.C. at half time. The second half saw the two teams battling furiously for every point. R.M.C. gained a slight lead but the blue and white squad from Roads continued to iight back and pulled ahead to a 61-60. At this time, the tension amongst players and spectators was nearly unbearable. Ziegler tied the score and Broide sent R.M.C. into the lead for good. R.M.C. won the game by a close 64-62. It is an extremely difficult task to pick out individual stars as everyone played exceptional basketball. However, for R.M.C., Murray, Brodie and Ziegler were outstanding. Murray was top scorer for R.M.C. as was Freeman for Royal Roads. Along with Freeman, Manson and Douglas deserve special mention for the losers. -No. 3672 C. C. M. Powis VOLLEYBALL The Volleyball proved to be as hair-raising as the basketball. Although Royal Roads seemed to have it all sewn upw at the outset, R.M.C. eventually came back to take the event, The first few minutes were certainly no indication of the outcome, as a fast, superior Roads team, with the deadly spiking of Douglas, outplayed a shaky R M.C. squad and swamped them to the tune of 15-2. After a few words of advice and caution between games, however, R.M.C. shed some of its nervousness and slipped into an early lead. After being passed several times, R.M.C. spurted to a 15-10 win, putting the games now at one each. The third and deciding game saw many hard fought vollies but with R.M.C. as the aggressor. Royal Roads fought back gamely but fell before the accurate setups of Leeson, deadly spikes by Bates and Latimer, and Aldworth's strong serves. R.M.C. swept the deciding game 15-7. -NG. 3672 C' C- M. POWIS SHOOTING In the third event of the annual tournament, Royal Roads defeated R.M.C. in the small bore rifle competition. The winners obtained a well-deserved victory with a score of 494, as oposed to R.M.C.'s aggregate of 481, out of a possible 500 points, in a tense contest in the R.M.C. 25-yard miniature range on Saturday. Feb. 21. The highest score was made by Cadet Rea of Royal Roads, who shot a possible 100 target. R.M.C.'s high score was shot by Cadet P. H. Wright 1985. The R.M.C. team included Cadets Gillespie, Hurley, Ramsay, Redden. L. C. Smith, Sterling, Wallace and Wright, while the Royal Roads group consisted of Cadets Kingham, Pearce, Pullen, Rea, Shook, Smith, Wigmore, and West. Each cadet fired two targets, of which the better of the two was counted. Then, the best five targets of these were picked for either team. The keenness and hard fighting shown by both teams could well be attributed to the leadership of their coaches SfSgt. McConel1 and Sgt. Brien, in whom was reflected the sportsmanlike rivalry of the match. Although this victory was well- defined, it proved to be the only one obtained by Royal Roads in the entire tourna- ment. It gave a sense of satisfaction and reason for some rejoicing to the visiting EYOUP- -No. 3513 J. W. STORR 1953 131 SWIMMING A major event of the Royal Roads - R.M.C. Sports Weekend was the swim- ming meet held on Saturday morning. It was a delightfully hard-fought tilt, and 4 records fell before the driving swimmers. Morrison of R.M.C. accounted for two of these. When the splashing had subsided, R.M.C. was victorious, having won five of the seven events. In the 75-yard medley relay, the R.R. team of Brown, Smart, and Smith came in ahead of Cockfield, Luke, and McCarthy of R.M.C. The winners' time was 41.2 seconds, with R.M.C. 0.3 seconds behind. The 100-yard free style saw Morrison set a new meet record of 58.9, in edging Slee of Roads who arrived home at 64.1. The third event was diving. Here the R.M.C. team of Freill and McCaslin with 411 points outdid the Roads duo, Hardwick and Johnson, who chalked up 361. McCaslin performed upon the 3-metre board, while the rest dived from the l-metre. In the 50-yard free style, Morrison picked up his second record, a low 24.3. He was followed by Smith of Roads at 26.6, who placed ahead of Upton, R.R., and McCarthy, R.M.C. Smart of Roads then set a record of 32.6 in the 50-yard breast stroke, defeat- ing Luke of R.M.C. who made it in 33-6 seconds. Then Cockfield of R.M.C., in the 50-yard back stroke, set a record of 31.3. Brown of Roads covered the distance in 33.7 seconds. In the final event, the 100-yards sprint relay, the R.M.C. team of Luke, Freill, McCarthy, and Morrison, achieving a time of 48.2 seconds, topped the 49.5 second effort turned in by R.Rfs Upton, Rayment, Slee, and Smith, and thus gave Kingston the meet. -Non 35l7 N, K- SHERMAN BGXING Although the tournament had already been decided in favour of R.M.C. there was no lack of spirit in the final event, the boxing. As in the other events, the turnout of spectators was exceptionally good, and the support given to the Royal Roads competitors almost exceeded that given to the R.M.C. boxers. It was impossible to tell the outcome of this event until it had taken place, and everyone was looking forward to another very closely fought match. The first bout of the afternoon was between Munroe and Freeman in the lightweight class. Both boxers fought very cautiously, but did not fail to take advantage of any situations. After a very close fight, the decision was given to Munroe of R.M.C. The second bout, the welterweight fight, set R.M.C. well in the lead with two victories. Warren, who had the reach over his opponent, won a decisive victory over Wilber of Royal Roads. Wilber, although receiving a severe beating, put up a very game fight. The results of the event were decided in the next match when Setten of R.M.C. met Mason of Royal Roads, in the Middle- weight division. This, too, was a decisive win for R.M.C. and the result had been a foregone conclusion for the Kingston cadets. Mason was unable to cope with Settenis strong attack, and spent most of the time on the defensive. Royal Roads won their first light when McNamee defeated Hindmarch. Although the battle was a very close one there was little doubt that the decision would go to the west-coast cadet. The final bout of the afternoon was the heavyweight tight between Sherlock of R.M.C. and Reyment of Royal Roads. The first round started out rather slowly, Rayment being the aggressor, but Sherlock's quick counter-punching brought the fight to a split decision, in favour of Rayment. This made the final results of the boxing 3-2 for R.M.C. and the results of the tournament 4-1 for the Kingston Cadets' -No. 3521 C. R. SIMoNDs INTRAMURAL SPORTS URING the College year, cadets engage in about twenty intramural games, meets and tournaments. Here is variety and scope for every athlete! The Cadet Wing, with its competing squadrons and flights, is particularly suited to sports competitions. The sports place the intersquadron rivalry on a tan- gible basis and provide an outlet for squadron spirit. The squadrons are awarded points towards the intramural championship according to their final standing in any one sport. Intramural sports produce an intensely keen competition, for cadets attack the games in a manner bordering the ferocious. To play hard and Ndrive the body is a characteristic of R.M.C. teams be they interflight or inter-collegiate. Together with compulsory recreational training, the objects of intramural sports at R.M.C. are to obtain physical exercise, to learn to play games, and to obtain enjoyment in playing the games. Besides these there is also the object of instilling the characteristics of fair play, sportsmanship, and self-confidence. The recreational training programme requires every cadet to obtain one hour's exercise daily either in intramural competition or in a manner he chooses. To carry out this program, sufficient facilities and planned games must be at the convenience of the majority of the Cadet Wing every day. With College basketball, swimming volleyball, and gymnastic teams practising, the facilities available to the remaining majority of cadets are the rifle range and six hours per week in the Old Gym and swimming pool. The problem of exercising the Cadet Wing becomes difficult, and intramural schedules must be made very short due to the space and time available. The great outdoors provides a ready solution in the autumn but the winter weather with its spells of warm and cold renders inter-sports impossible. The solution lies of course with increased facilities and, to be effective, the requirements dictate a large expansion. One of the main objects of intramural athletics is to enable everyone to participate in every sport and to learn by playing. The allocation of points to the winning squadron tends to eliminate this phase of the programme. Because the points are in the offing, a team will play its better members only with the objec- tive of winning the game to win the points. The weaker members of a flight or squadron thus never see the playing field. But the intersquadron points are desirable because they motivate the keen competition and build the spirit. Certainly to eli- minate the points would enable total participation but this is the easiest and not the best solution. The competition must be arranged so that provision is made for all to play. One method arranges two series of games in a sport, one to be played for the sake of the game, and the other to be played for points. Another method devises two sections of competition whereby a squadron produces a strong and a weak team, and each section plays a separate schedule. Both methods were tried this year and met with fair success. The following pages present a box score of most intramural sports played this year. Some new sports were introduced and some received a new twist mainly to increase the participation. Third year cadets performed most of the organiza- tional duties and as usual College team members did excellent officiating. Many types of schedules were used to increase the variety. In general, long-range plan- ning and organization were executed in order to achieve smooth operation and best use of facilities. -No. 3080 P. A. PREVILLE 1953 133 SOFTBALL Inter-squadron competition took on a new baby this year in the form of inter-fiight softball. Despite the fact that there are three diamonds on the grounds, this sport has in the past been sadly neglected at R.M.C., and its initiation was met with great enthusiasm by many of the cadets. An elaborate schedule was arranged, each team playing at least two games, and a system of a winner's and a losers' series was very satisfactory. Under this system, any one team played in the winners, series until it dropped a game, it then continued in the losers' series until it lost again. The final playoff was a game between the champions of the winners' series and those of the losers' series. In this manner a maximum of games was played by each team, with almost no possibility of the same two teams meeting twice. Considering that from nine to fifteen men are required for a team, and that a team had to be entered from each flight, the representation was good, and the competition soon became very keen. Number Three Squadron threatened to take the series, with all three flights showing strength on the diamond, but they were finally sent to the losers' series to fight it out. NM Flight, led by a superb battery of Kerr-Soule, sent their strongest competitors, H Flight, to the losers series only after a hard struggle involving one tied game. Fate decreed that these two teams were to meet again in the hnals, with M Flight emerging victorious after an extremely fast, well- played game. With M Flight leading the way, Number Four Squadron brought home the bacon for the series, and added these well-earned points to their rapidly growing aggregate. The series as a whole proved to be a great success, enjoyed by players and spectators alike, it is hoped that next fall will see an even more elaborate arrange- ment for this new adventure in competitive sports at the R.M.C.

Tennis Tournament started in late September this year with forty-eight players taking part. C.S.L. McPherson was favoured to win, with C.S.C. Pinsonnault, C.S.C. Gross and Cadet Bird seeded in that order. The first major upset in the tournament was Pinsonnault's defeat at the hands of Ramsay, a recruit from Rothesay, N.B., by a 6 - 2, 6 - 4 score. MacDonnell, a newcomer from Royal Roads, defeated Bird after a stiff battle, while McPherson and Gross were setting back their opponents with ease. ln the semi-finals son and Gross were setting back their opponents with ease. In the semi-finals McPherson defeated MacDonnell 6 - 3. 6 - 3, and Gross beat Ramsay 6 - 3, 6 - 4, 6-2. McPherson and Gross met in the finals in early November with C.S.L. McPherson emerging as the winner by a 6 - 3, 6 - 3, 6 - 2 score, thereby winning the championship for the fifth consecutive year and confirming his No. l spot on the College team. Besides Ramsay, recruits May and Powis played very well and showed considerable promise for the future. -No. 3522 J. TISON 134 R. M. C. Review ANNUAL REGATTA Saturday, the 18th day of October, 1952 was a chilly, windy and almost miserable day to most, but not to all, for on that day R.M.C. held one of its hottest, and most closely contested regattas in its history. It was not until the final race that the outcome of the aquatic competition was decided. To the delight of the spectators, all classes of events, excluding the seaworthy sloops, found crews partaking in underwater activities, who only reached warmth and safety because of the timely retrieving by the alert rescue crews. Bucking a strong south-west wind, the sloops crossed the starting line at the crack of Col. King's gun. Although some controversy arose over the winner of this race, Skipper Speed', Reid, with Fred Ross and Don Grant were awarded top honours. Closely following the sloops, the Ackroyds and Admiraltys, fighting more for survival than speed, pitched into the open waters of the river. For the second year. Tim Boyd and Bill Smallwood captured first place in the Ackroyd class, with Fulton and Wallace winning top place in the Admiraltys. Neptune lashed most furiously at the canoe events, strong winds and choppy waters proved disasterous to almost half the crews. The whaler races netted a victory for No. 4 Squadron's Gill Ross and his crew: Kormylo, Ferguson, Lowry, White and Fulton. In the canoe doubles, Kingston and Hamlin raised No. l Squadron's meagre total with a first place. Again Ross coxed a win in the skiff pullings only to be followed by another No. 4 Squadron thrilling win in the canoe foursome, manned by Bates, Haxton, Radley and Wareham. Not only did Bill McMurtry paddle a skillful race in winning the canoe singles, but also he was the only singles competitor who finished without an unpremeditated bath. With only 3 points separating the No. 3 and No. 4 Squadron totals, the war canoes slashed down the bay, urged by hearty cheers, Hudson Squadron's smoothly coordinated crew won both the race and the regatta. An unusual addition to this year's regatta was the appearance of the Easy Aces, the crack R.C.A.F. Harvard aerobatic team. Envious Army and Navy eyes watched the four pilots perform aerobatics similar to those taught to cadets taking Air Force pilotfs training. As the last boats were being pulled out of the water and the crowd began drifting away from the pier, comments heard testified that this regatta had been one of the best. -No. 3272 J. E.

INTER - SQUADRON SWIMMING MEET The 1952-53 inter-squadron swimming meet proved to be the most closely contended since the re-opening of the College in 1948. The meet was won by No. 1 Squadron, with No. 4 Squadron close behind. All together six new college records were established: 13 150 yd. Medley Relay- l:35.8 -set by Cocklield, Luke and Day of No. 2 Squadron. , 23 75 yd. Individual Medley - 51.0 - set by Dumalo. 33 440 yd. Freestyle - 6:02.4 - set by Dumalo. Dumalo is now entitled to keep the Patton Cup, having won this event for three consecutive years and to replace it with the Dumalo Cup. 43 50 yd. Back Stroke - 32.7 - set by Cocklield. 53 50 yd. Breast Stroke - 34.5 - set by Luke. 63 200 yd. 8 Man Relay - 1149.7 - set by No. 1 Squadron. Ross and Hudson of No. 4 Squadron took top honours in the 3 metre and 1 metre diving events respectively, while No. 4 Squadron's team of Hudson, Haxton, Jory and Goodfellow won the 200 yd. Freestyle Relay. The 50 yd. Freestyle, probably the closest race of the meet, was won by Scott of No. 2 Squadron and in the 100 yd. Freestyle, Cullwick of No. 1 Squadron managed to edge out No. 3 Squadron's Morrison. The highlight of the evening was a comic diving display by Gill Ross, Walt Scott and Fred Ross. Disqualilication of No. 4 Squadron in the 200 yd. 8 Man Relay and No. 2 Squadron in the 200 yd. Freestyle Relay provided the margin of victory for No. 1 Squadron. The fact that six college records were broken is proof that the swim- ming was atop-notch and the competition very close. Following the meet an informal dance was held with music supplied by a very competent band from the Royal Canadian School of Signals. -No. 3221 J. H. JENNEKENS 136 R.M. C. Rezgiew INTER - SQUADRON TRACK MEET .S g s SSS SOULE EDGES REEVES IN INTER-SQUADRON 3 MILE The inter-squadron track meet, possibly more than any other College event. sees squadron esprit de corps and competitive spirit at its keenest. Favoured with fine weather as usual, this year's meet, held on Oct. 26, was as colourful and as well organized as its predecessors. Events got under way in the morning with the three-mile run providing the lirst highlight of the day. After the first mile, Reeves took the lead with Soule and Kingston, both strong, steady runners, sticking together in second place within reach of their pace-setter. With two laps remaining, Soule and Kingston moved up together and all three men linished as one. It was 'ganybodyis race', till the very end when Soule edged out his competitors by inches. The 220-yard hurdles saw G. Ross fly to a 27.7 sec. victory, but pressed closely by J. Willsher all the way. Ross broke his own record established the previous Sunday in a dual track meet with Queen's, and improved the old College record by 0.5 sec. In a good half-mile event, a strong and very promising recruit, McLeod, managed to pass the veteran Tromanhauser in the stretch to win in 2 min. 10.5 sec. Unfortunately, both the 100-yard dash and 130-yard hurdles were run under handicap of a rather imposing head-wind which prevented some of the College's best runners from registering good times in these events. The second College record to fall during the meet was that of the hop, step and jump. L. Shick surprised all by jumping 40 ft. 0 in. to surpass Lundell's 1951 mark by 5 in. In an earlier jump, Shick attained 41 ft. but this effort was discounted because of a foul. 1953 137 CFL S. A. Lundell carried off the greatest share of the day's trophies by winning the Ryerson Cup for his first and two seconds in the 100, 220, and 440-yard dashes, in addition to the D.V. Rainnie Bugle for obtaining the highest number of individual points in the meet. From the inter-squadron standpoint, No. 4 Sqn. won by a fairly comfortable margin so that on final count the standing was No. 4, No. 2, No. 1 and No. 3 Sqns. in that order. This very successful and well-run meet served to provide the materiai from which the varsity team would be organized to compete in the Ottawa-St. Lawrence Inter-collegiate meet. --No. 3212 E. K.

M. C. Revzew INTER - SOUADRON VOLLEYBALL To many, volleyball may appear as a dull sport. However, in this year's inter- squadfon competition this was anything but the case. The inter-fiight games played before the squadron tournament, proved to both improve the standard of ball played and also to heighten the enthusiasm in the squadron games following. Due to ineligibility tests and other sports played at conflicting times each squadron team possibly hadn't a true representation of its best players. However, the teams floored by the squadrons played excellent ball. With a double round-robin schedule, not only did the squadrons have an opportunity to play each team twice, but also team managers had a chance to revamp their teams to their best advantage before meeting the squadrons again. The completion of the final set found No. I Squadron ahead with five wins and only one loss. The lads from the Frigate repeatedly won games against appar- ently superior squads by displaying good team work and a fighting spirit at the crucial moments. The final tally showed No. 4 Squadron in the second spot, with Nos. 2 and 3 Squadrons sharing third place honours. The HGreen Wave unfor- tunately lost some very close games, not through lack of ability, but mainly through moments of confusion which found their opponents savagely pressing their temporary advantage. Probably the main reason for the third place standing of No. 2 and 3 Squadrons was the loss of key players to the College basketball team. However, their winning only two sets certainly is no indication of the spirit displayed by these two teams. Many of their defeats were closely contested, heart-breaking games to lose with the winner never in sight until the final whistle. All squadrons should be praised for the very fine effort and whole-hearted support given their representative teams. -No. 3272 J. E. CZAJA INTER - SOUADRON WATER POLO This year, the second in succession, saw the failure of an effort to make water polo a major sport at R.M.C. Last season, with the aid of a few experienced players and a good coach, we had what was beginning to resemble a varsity team. This year, with a loss of players due to injury and participation in other sports, coupled with lack of coaching staff, the team effort merely consisted of a few scattered practices in an attempt to teach new players. When only a dozen turned out. it was decided to drop the idea of a team for this year and start in to rebuild early next fall. A good turnout then might put this sport on the map again. The lack of a varsity team did not stop the inter-squadron competition from being a rugged and hard-fought affair. No. 1 Squadron brought Eddie little speedboat' Dumalo out of wraps, who towed them through to three straight victories. He, of course, was aided by No. l's advantage of having more experienced players and, thus, more depth in substitutes. The games were all hotly contended, as a water polo game must be, but the closest of all was the battle between No. 2 and No. 4 Squadrons for second place. Paced by Fritz McDougall and coached by John Kormylo, No. 4 took advantage of time and opportunity to squeeze out a 5-4 victory over No. 2 Squadron's varsity swim team of Luke, Jennekins, and Day. No. 3 finished in the rear, suffering from lack of players, and playing some games with only one substitute. FINAL STANDINGS Team Won Lost Pts. 1 3 0 6 4 2 1 4 2 1 2 2 3 0 3 0 -No. 3218 G. B.

Amidst bursts of hearty cheering-the majority of which was threats aimed at the unfortunate referees-numerous players clad in a variety of coloured sweaters relentlessly pummeled a soccer ball and anyone else on the opposite team brave enough to enter the battle. For sheer team spirit it is difficult to match that displayed during the annual soccer games, and this year was no exception. The players were seldom skillful but their relentless drive was to be admired at all times and it was this fighting spirit which gave No. 1 Squadron the championship after a number of close games. The final results were as follows: No. 1 Squadron - 9 points No. 4 Squadron - 8 points No. 3 Squadron - 7 points No. 2 Squadron - O points -No. 3301 G. J. MARTIN INTER - SQUADRON FOOTBALL It is unfortunate that, due to the lateness of the season, so few inter-squadron football games were played. However, the four that were played stimulated a great deal of interest throughout the College and their games were well attended by many enthusiastic cadets. No. 3 and No. 1 Squadrons started the season off with a rugged and hard- hitting game which ended in a 21 - 6 victory for No. 3 Squadron. Dillon was the lone scorer for the boys from the Frigate and it was unfortunate that he suffered a severe leg injury during the final quarter. In the next contest, the boys from No. 4 Squadron trounced No. 2 Squadron by a score of 18 - 5. In the playoff for the championship, the green wave was beaten by the heavier and better drilled No. 3 Squadron by a score of 9 - O. Sexsmith and Bird displayed some fine football for the winners while Kilger worked hard for the losers. In the final game of the season No. 2 Squadron held No. 1 Squadron score- less while scoring 14 points of their own. The season ended with No. 3 Squadron on top, No. 4 second, No. 2 third and No. 1 in fourth place. -No. 3368 P. A. GIFFORD INTER - SQUADRON HOCKEY The inter-squadron hockey league, played through January and February. produced keen competition. When the broken sticks and broken bodies were finally cleared from the ice of the Jock Harty Area, No. 4 Squadron, led by such terrors as uSexy Soule and f'Punchy Grainger, had emerged victorious. The league was well supported and it was regretted that the schedule had to be cut from 12 to 6 games due to lack of available time. Hockey is considered as a National sport and it's a shame we donlt have any more opportunity to play. If R.M.C. had its own arena this would be possible, not only in intra-mural activity but the calibre of varsity teams would improve also.

Lawrence, Parisien, Ford, C. C. Jefferies. Front Row -Gagnon, Bepple, Gilbert. In late November the gym team was organized for the academic year 1952-5 3. Under the excellent tutelage of WO 2 Grindlay and Sgt. Griesbach, the mysteries of mat work, parallel bar exercises, and chair tricks were explained to the would- be gymnasts. There were three periods of instruction per week and by Christmas the team was beginning to take shape. After Christmas, spurred on by members of last year's team and the cadets from Royal Roads, the team began to pick up polish and precision. Plans were formulated to put on a display for the Royal Roads weekend. By the time this event arrived a display consisting of three sections had been worked out. In the first section a series of chair tricks were to be presented. The second section con- sisted of mat work and tumbling by the entire team. And finally, the last section featured parallel bar tableaus and individual exercises. The night of the display, the first section got off to a good start with chair exercises done by WG 2 Grindlay, Sgt. Griesbach and Cadets Gagnon, Gilbert, Reade, and Bepple. They employed the chair as a base for doing exercises such as handsprings, fly-springs, back lifts, balances, and tableaus. Featured in the second section were mat work exercises done in unison, and several individual tricks. These latter consisted of handsprings, cartwheels, front somersaults, triple rolls, and hand walking. The third section consisted of parallel bar tableaus and individual exercises, such as shoots, long arm balances combined with back lift and hand walking along the bars with a back lift off. It is hoped that more cadets will turn out next year and that the facilities will be enlarged. In this case, a bigger program of events could be planned for the team- -No. 3443 C. C. JEFFERIES 1953 141 INTER - FLIGHT RIFLE SHOOT This year, as in others, an inter-flight rifie shoot has been run off as part of the inter-squadron competition. This competition gives every cadet a chance to learn and practice the fundamentals of rifle shooting, which is very valuable to him both in his service life and as an enjoyable means of recreation. At the first of the year, the participants were given instruction in the proper shooting position, how to correct sighting and how to score a target. The targets used are regular D.C.R.A. targets and thus each cadet can go into regular D.C.R.A. competition and try to earn some of the marksmanship awards which are offered. Each flight may use as many shooters as they wish, with the best fifteen shots to count for the flight score. Each cadet is given five sighting shots and then he fires two shots on each of five circles on the regulation target. He is given sufficient time to make his shots as accurate as possible and thus the cadet's true ability is measured. From the results of the individual scores, a total liight score is computed and the total of the flight scores gives the squadron score which is counted as part of the monthly squadron competition. The scores that the individual fires are compiled to determine the College top shot who is awarded the crossed rifles and crown. Those with a large average not yet determined will be awarded the crossed rifle badge. Last year these were awarded on a squadron basis, but in some squadrons the competition for that squadron's crossed rifles was keener than in others. This year the top scorer, regardless of how many may be in any one squadron will be awarded the badge. At the time of writing the individual scores cannot be predicted, but the squadron totals are as follows:-- No. l Squadron - 19550 No. 3 Squadron - 19334 No. 4 Squadron - 18780 No. 2 Squadron - 18450 -No. 3227 D. G. LAWRENCE INTER - SOUADRON PISTOL SHOOTING The inter-squadron pistol competition this year showed a marked improve- ment in marksmanship, as well as the steady improvement of the standbys and the addition of some fairly accomplished recruit pistol shots. This is due to an increase in the number of privately owned automatics and some new Colt revolvers obtained through Ordnance. It is from the results of these competitions that the College team is picked and though the restricted pass has inflicted some casualties, the team has improved and has entered more competitions. No. 1 Squadron was again the pistol powerhouse this year, and, at the time of this writing, is well on the way to victory. However, none of the other squadrons will admit that they have a monopoly on the skill. Though the number of pistol experts is small, the spirit of competition is keen. Each month, from December to March, a match was fired. About twenty fired from each squadron of which the ten best counted to score. This gave everyone who had a desire to shoot an oppor- tunity to support his squadron and gain some experience at competitions. Even No. 1 Squadron champions had trouble getting more than twenty who felt they had a chance. At the same time, by counting only the top ten every shot was important and the marksmen had to be at their best. 142 R. M. C. Review lt is likely that next year the same system will be used as we feel it has been quite successful this year. These competitions serve another purpose besides encouraging interest in pistol shooting and selecting a College team. The results are added to select the best pistol shot of the College who wears a crossed pistols and crown badge, and a certain number of crossed pistol badges are awarded to the runners-up. At this time, however, the scores are so close it is impossible to predict the pistols and crown next year. -No. 3199 P. C. Bovo CURLING ln turn, center ice, hit the broom, T weight, Sweep, you lazy characters. For you who are still in doubt as to the meaning of all this, we will enlighten you. This year at R.M.C., through the valiant efforts of such keen curlers as Ken Mac- Millan, the College started a curling club. It is the first time in the College's history that such a club has been among the many extra curricularactivities carried out by the cadets of R.M.C. Nevertheless, now that it has started, it is felt certain that it will continue to grow in years to come. It all started soon after our return to R.M.C. in January when a group of die- hard curlers met to discuss the possibilities of starting a curling club. Attendance was good and interest seemed high, so it was decided to go ahead and see what could be arranged with the Kingston Curling Club. Ken MacMillan was elected to do the administrative work and must be commended for his fine results, for it wasn't long before he informed us that the Kingston Curling Club was willing to let us have three sheets of ice once a week. Soon rinks were being formed and everything was well under way. When all the rinks were formed it was found that they totalled twelve. It was decided that there should be two uround robins of 6 rinks each drawn up, curling alternate weeks. This was done and the first Tuesday found twenty-four eager cadets donning rather weird costumes to carry on the truly fascinating game of curling. Now we don't profess to be Grant Watson's or such, however, curling is a game that can be enjoyed by everyone. Although some of the club members have curled for 5 or 6 years there are many new comers to the game included in the membership, and from the talk that goes on during and after a game everyone seems extremely enthused over the whole affair. Particularly noticeable is the spirit in such a game. This is keen competition in which no one can be a slacker, for when you are not throwing a rock you are busy sweeping - especially if you are on a rink with Eddie Czaja or Derrick Young. For relaxation Cthough some may disagree with my choice of word therel for two hours or so after studying, there is no sport better than curling. Naturally, there are many suggestions towards improving our club and I feel the main one is that the College should be willing to donate a certain amount to the club for rink fees which, at present, are the only expense. In future years, per- haps the College will be able to enter one or two rinks in local bonspeils or have competition with Queen's, McGill, or Toronto, for I feel certain they have curlers there who would be only too eager to enter into competition with us. Who knows, someday curling may become a sport which will add to the glory of R.M.C. Our thanks are extended to the Kingston Curling Club who made our efforts a great success in 1953. -No. 3305 K. J. PERRY 1953 143 RECRUITS' OBSTAC LE RACE With the coming of the brisk autumn days we of the recruit class began to breathe more easily. The first tortuous weeks of recruiting were over and we were becoming adjusted to the life at R.M.C. Our Thanksgiving leave had given us new hope and we were thinking that things were looking up!l' f'Maybe we will even get to enjoy ourselves herej, was the sage comment of some of our more philosophical comrades. And then it came. Our dreams were exploded by the squadron runner's announcement. '4Second year cadets: turn out in working dress to Fort Frederick to construct the obstacle course? For days they worked, their hammers beating out a death knell for the recruits. The day of Oct. 26th. dawned cold and bleak and we didn't have our hearts in the cheering at the track meet. As soon as the meet was over we gathered at the corner of Mackenzie Building and with the dropping of the handkerchief by Col. Sawyer the race was on. The first three obstacles at the side of the football field presented no problem but the high wooden wall near the fort all but finished some. With team- work, however, everyone managed to scale it and we dashed for the ropes hung from Fort Frederick's stone walls. This obstacle, a virtual menace to life and limb, required Herculean effort on the part of some of us to surmount, but finally we were all over the wall and heading for the eastern earthwork embank- ment. We then started a tour of the earthworks, slipping, sliding, and rolling down, crawling and clawing our way back up again, four times in all. At the top of our second ascent we were required to wriggle up underneath a tarpaulin, stretched tightly to the ground on the inner side of the embankment. A wire maze, laid about a foot off the ground greeted us at the top of our fourth trip down and we slid underneath it on our journey down the hill. We had been looking rather haggard but a trip through the swamp on the point refreshed us immensely. After the earthworks came the slide, an ingeniously constructed device with greased planks and a trench filled with muddy water at the bottom. A large number of spectators was grouped around this novel addition to the course and as each of us splashed into the trench we drenched anyone within range, much to our enjoyment. From the slide we staggered, mud-splattered, to another tarpaulin in the western corner of the fort, slid down under it, and focussed our fatigue-dimmed eyes on the moat. It, we discovered, was choked with a tangled mass of debris. Over logs, through tree branches, we dragged ourselves and then crawled up the wall, built on the side of the steps. After sliding down the other side on ropes we stumbled out of the moat. The white marker pointed towards the timer's bench situated in the middle of the football field and as we collapsed at the finish line we croaked out our names. Eureka, we had made it! No. l Squadron was again the winner with No. 3, No. 2, and No. 4 Squadrons following in that order. The individual winners were: First: MCCARTHY, J. L. - No. 3 Sqn. Second: MACCAUL, D. J. - No. 1 Sqn. Third: RUTHERFORD, J. R. - No. 3 Sqn. Fourth: Powls, C. C. M. - No. 4 Sqn. Fifth: MACLEOD, M. H. - No. 4 Sqn. The obstacle race provided keen competition and showed what teamwork can do when the going gets tough. We of the recruit class say, Wait till next year, and although we are now merely haggard shells of our former stalwart selves, we all enjoyed ourselves and hope we gave the many spectators a good Show' -No. 3591 D. H. GREGORY RECRUIT BOXING The latter part of January found the majority of the recruits either running vigourously around the gym, or else sweating it out in a hot shower, hoping they could work off those last few pounds. Whether they were successful or not, all who could stand and walk eventually found themselves climbing through the ropes into the ring, some with the fond hope that they might leave in the same way. The elimination bouts for the Novice Boxers started early in February, and during the next two weeks, the better for more fortunateb fighters earned a posi- tion in the finals, held on Feb. 12. In the Featherweight Class, May defeated Hurley on points, and Munroe won the Lightweight title fthough losing a toothb after a very close fight with Lajoie. Despite a very promising display in the elimina- tions, Sexsmith lost by decision to Rutherford. One of the biggest attractions was the fight between McMurtry and Jeff Graham both of whom had shown outstand- ing ability in the primary bouts. The completion of a very evenly matched scrap found Gaham the winner of the Middleweight Class. Hindmarch, a left-handed boxer, won over Adams with a T.K.O. in the third round of his contest, while O,Shaughnessy, who had gone through the eliminations with a series of Hrst-round T.K.O.'s, met his match in Sherlock.

The excellent display presented by Rich,, Setten won him, for the second year in a row, the Gold Cup, given annually to the best boxer in any weight. The finals were held on the same evening as those of the recruit tournament, completing an exceptionally good display of hard and fast boxing. Munroe, who had already won the Novice Lightweight, gave a good account of himself by winning a decision over Richardson to take the Open title. The closest contest of the evening was the bout between O'Shaughnessy and Bird for the Heavyweight title, O'Shaughnessy winning by decision, while Setten dehnitely earned mention by winning both the Open Middleweight ad the Open Light-heavyweight divisions, defeating first Walford by a T.K.O., and then Davies in a very hard-punching ii ht. g OPEN BOXING FINALS AND AWARDS Best Boxer - Setten, R.

This year blessed the cadets with much better weather for their three-mile jaunt than has been seen in previous years. l'm sure we all missed the mud and rain as we plodded up and down the hills of Barriefield. Brigadier Agnew started the race, and as the gun fired approximately 350 eager OJ cadets were off across the square, heading for the gate. A colourful crew we were indeed in red, green, air force, and navy blue squadron sweaters. As the myriad bodies reached this point, one could see a few more fortunate and possibly more energetic individuals starting to take the lead. By the time the mass reached the first turning point at the highway all could see the Brock Squadron stalwart, Fritz MacDougall, up in front followed closely by a dozen or so runners who, in turn, were followed by the rest of the cadet wing. As the race progressed the better trained runners soon moved out in front with the rest of the field well dispersed behind. The tape was breasted by Fritz as he nnished in good form in slightly over sixteen minutes. Ted Tromanhauser was second, some distance back, followed by Kingston, Soule, McLeod, Stewart and Sherman in that order. Those who finished in the first few, providing they had any strength left, stood on the edges of the square and cheered on their team mates. As the body of the race finished, cheers and encouragement would be shouted as a red sweater would be seen to break forth and strive to run down a green who was in turn battling it out with a navy blue, each individual striving to bring his squadron to victory. As custom would have it, every race has a winner and this being no excep- tion No. 3 Squadron in air force blue seemed to have all the wind as they won rather handily. No. 4 Squadron, the Greenbacks, came in a relatively close second followed by the original Red Men of No. 2 Lasalle, and those dark blue boys from across the square, No. l Squadron. It was not without the odd sigh of relief that the last man came trotting across the finish line, ending another harriers for another year. --No. 3252 E. A. TRoMANHAUsER.

DISTINGUISHED LECTURERS EDUCATION AND THE UFFICER An atlrlress given by His Excellency the Right Honourable Vincent Massey C.H., Governor - General of Canada, on the occasion of his oisit to the Royal Military College, Kingston, on 27th November, 1952. I am delighted to be able to visit the Royal Military College on this occasion. This is not my first visit to R.M.C. I came here years ago and had the privilege of addressing the cadets. The form of the College has changed since those days but the spirit, I know, has remained constant and unaltered. It teaches, as it always has done, the traditional virtues of discipline, a sense of duty and good manners, virtues which are not universally respected in these days. I am very happy to be here. I am sorry, however, that, through no fault of mine, my visit is marked by the imposition on you of that forbidding ordeal called a lecture! I do not know just what place the visiting lecturer occupies today in the scheme of things at R.M.C. Is he produced as an exhibit from which the cadets may learn salutary lessons of prudence and caution! Is the lecture he gives a part of the training you receive to enable you to meet the hardships of life, to take the rough with the smooth, to accept those grim experiences which life imposes? I do not know. But I am sure that when the lecture is over, you will say to yourselves, not without a touch of pride, R.M.C. can take it!'7 I have greatly enjoyed, in the last few months, the privilege of visiting Service establishments. The civilian can learn much from such visits of great educational value to himself. He can learn what he should know about the char- acter and problems of the three Services on which the defence of his country depends, If I may speak of one of them, and I know you here are concerned with all three, the longer I contemplate the modern Army the greater is my wonder at the vast amount of knowledge and skill required in those who must operate it. Assuming that the simple view of the civilian may be accepted: that the opera- tion of an army consists in the smooth execution of mass manoeuvres of men and machines, what an infinity of things must the officer know, and what a complexity of skills must he have at his command. He must, I suppose, have a working knowledge of engines and weapons of war from the largest tank to the smallest hand grenade. He must have acquainted himself not only with transport vehicles but with what they must transport - men, machines, food, clothing, supplies of all sorts. And he must know about uniforms and quarters and discipline and duties and recreations, and the thousand other matters connected with the very maintenance of movement, quite apart from the manoeuvres of his men and his machines. And he must see these things in the order of their importance and in the broad context of Service life. And there is that other essential component of modern army life, paper. The officer must know all about paper in every conceivable form, alphabetical and numerical, in duplicate, triplicate, quadruplicate, in folders and in files and in boxes. You will recall that Napoleon said that Armies march on their stomachs, now, I am told, they march on paper. 1953 147 It is no wonder that the officer must spend years in training, and many weeks and months in later life going on a course . It is now nearly four hundred years since Sir Humphrey Gilbert urged Queen Elizabeth I to found an institute of military science: 'fWhereas in the universities men study only schole learninge, in this Academy they shall study matters of accion meet for present practize both of peace and warre . 'Since that time matters of accion meet for present practizew have increased in number and complexity. Moreover the present is always vanishing rapidly into the outmoded past. It is no wonder that the officer is never trained, but is always in training. This must be so. As the price of military preparedness the machine must be continually renewed and its operators constantly re-trained. And yet such methods do not begin to touch the real task of the officer -or the nature of his problem. For after all, although it may be tempting and even occasionally necessary, to regard the Army as a machine, it is not a machine. It is a band of men, who, by intensive training and discipline, may be so blended that they can when necessary, behave almost like a machine. But their virtue consists in this, that they are not a machine, this fact must never be forgotten. No amount of mechanization can obscure the fact that armies, air forces and navies are primarily a body of human beings. We may pay a heavy price for our modern techniques of research, statistics, classihcation, tabulation and accounting. It is too easy to multiply one man by a thousand and find that the answer is just a thousand men, as one multiplies one uniform by a thousand and finds, correctly, that the answer is just a thousand uniforms. May I explain my meaning by an illustration from another calling with which you, at this moment, are closely associated? Two experts in education are discussing a new streamlined method which is being tried, and not found entirely satisfactory. One points out a weakness, f'Yes , says the other, in tones of annoyance, one can never get away from the problem of the human flier - a remark all the more terrible because thoughtlessly uttered by a genuine enthus- iast for better. methods. But a human being is not a filter for a method. Nor is he ever merely a part of a machine. And therefore, with the complexity and magni- licence of the military machine, with the precision and perfection of methods and techniques, with all your hard and intensive training there is the danger that the humanity of the men may come to be regarded not as the glory of the army but as a weakness of the machine. None of the Services is just a machine, and the officer is not just the operator, or the organizer, or the controller, or the mani- pulator of his men. The old word leader is still the right word, and the precise word. It stands through all the centuries of military history untouched by changes of weapons, tactics or strategy. The word implies special qualities in the leader and in the follower. And it requires, too, a reciprocal relationship having in its nature certain mystical qualities which still defy classification and analysis -but which every soldier and every officer knows and recognizes. This institution is designed to enable you to develop such qualities by offer- ing you not only an arduous and intensive training, but a generous and liberating education. Let us never forget the distinction between the two. Training will fit you for a groove in life. It will instruct you, as Humphrey Gilbert expressed it, 'fin matters of accion meet for present practize . It will show you how to run a .machine as a machine. But training alone and without education will leave you in the groove. It will not show you how you got in, or how you may get out. It will not reveal to you that there may be other grooves. Education, on the other hand, along with training will turn the groove into a channel. It will present 148 R. M. C. Review to you your training as a channel through which your gifts and your energies may pass consciously and intelligently in the service of society. You will then view the Army, and the other Services, not merely as machines made of men and machines, 'fmeet for present practize , which you must operate competently and according to orders. Education should enable you to view the Army, and yourself. and vour orders. and vour men. in a wider and more human pattern. Training will teach you how, education will teach you why. I hesitate to speak to you in detail on this subject of education. The theory of education is something which people can brood over by the hour. To you, how- ever. who experience its practical application the theory is, I know very well, simply and incredibly boring. On this matter I shall, therefore, be brief. If I must bore you I shall not bore you for long. A well-known Englishman recently visited a score or so of American uni- versities and examined with some care their courses of study. His reflections are interesting and not, I think, inapplicable to Canada. He remarks that what struck him in everything from philosophy to dress-making was the demand for the first- rate. The American professor and the American student pursue above all excellence, and this, the pursuit of excellence in every field, is, he agrees, the hall-mark of the educated man. In vocational studies, training for a particular calling or job, he has no doubt of our ability on this continent to achieve excellence. What concerns him is our indifference to 'fthose activities which spring from the creative and intellectual faculties of human nature such as literature, art, architecture and music . These four activities meet all of us every day. We are literally surrounded by architecture, and smothered by literature, the atmosphere is full of examples of music and art from every juke box and on every signboard. Our ability to discern the excellent in these things is doubtful, to say the least. Cur standards of excellence are vague and indeterminate. HThe tares grow with the wheat and the difference between wheat and tares escapes notice. For a civilized society this is a reproach, for a democracy it is a danger. Is there a remedy in education? And, if so, where is it to be found? There is a remedy, I think, in any study which exercises and broadens the mind by bringing it in touch with any objective truth. But the obvious way to establish standards of human character and human conduct is to learn by example. This is, I suppose, the place and the purpose of the humanities in education - those humane studies like history and literature which show men not in partial glimpses but in the fullest and most complete revelation. In such studies you see the best and the worst of human life. You may see and distinguish between greatness which is not uncommon, and goodness which is very rare. The examples are there, and the standards are revealed to all who have eyes to see. Nurture your minds, said Disraeli, 'fwith great thoughts, to believe in the heroic makes heroesf' Training can only add Hrmness and strength to a mind already made broad and generous by the study of literature and history. For it will have gained some acquaintance with the whole of Western civilization, the sum total of the way of life cherished and defended by the western world. Follow such a path and you will, no doubt, have acquainted yourself with your own country, its history, its traditions, its achievements, and its shortcomings. May I interject here one word which may seem like an anticlimax? It is, I think, a word which must be spoken. It is 2000 years since the Roman Quinti- lian is supposed to have said to his students, Mend your speech lest it mar your fortune . I do not intend at this point to enter into a discussion of the reputedly irremediable nature of undergraduate English. 1953 149 I cannot help remembering a remark made to me during the war by a Canadian general about the memoranda and appreciations which were submitted to him by young Staff Officers - that they used three words where one would do, which kept them often from maintaining the lucidity which should be the essence of such a document. But my friend was not alone in his experience. There is a risking chorus today of complaint about the use of English by those who are entering business and professional life but this is not the occasion to ask what the remedy is. If I once got started on the subject, I should keep you for too long. One thing that helps is the old-fashioned essay examined by a merciless tutor. I have in my Commonplace Book two examples of what two Oxford tutors said to their students. One characterized a paper of one ambitious student as Hempty, magniloquent, abstract, fiatulent, pretentious, confused and subhumanv. It would appear that he did not like it! The other said to an undergraduate who had produced a not very good essay to call that nonsense would be paying it a compliment - good morninglf' This, I fear, sounds like a fiippant digression. I would, however, remind you that a striving for excellence in the spoken and written word is for a civilized man the foundation for excellence in any other field. Language, that infinitely flexible instrument, is, to use a modern term, most functional when it is most beautiful and most beautiful when it is most functional. There is some danger today that it may lose both form and function. May I suggest that the defence of our civilization, should include the defence of its most treasured possessions? And may I remind you also that, when you join the Army you enter a very closely knit association which has in its possession two languages, English and French. These two languages are, indeed, the property and the responsibility of all Cana- dians. But if there is, and I believe there is, a special bond between brothers in arms, then there is a special obligation on you to possess and to master both languages. So much for my conception of the core of an officer's education. It may be remarked that I have left many gaps. I have, for example, neglected those admir- able modern studies which concern themselves with the phenomena of human nature separately, and in the mass: anthropology, psychology, sociology, econo- mics. I have not forgotten them, and I do not believe that they should be neglected. I am aware of the role of the psychologists and psychiatrists in the modern Services, and I would not for one moment minimize their value. I know of modern studies in group organization, group thinking, group dynamics. These matters may well serve as part of the special training of some officers. But I am thinking now of the general education of all officers. The findings of the psychologist and the social scientist can supplement, but can never replace the accumulated revela- tions of human nature which come to us from literature, history and the arts. Indeed, if relied on exclusively, they are dangerous, for their methods require the generalization and the classification of the scientist. To the artist and to the humanist every manifestation of nature is in one sense unique. Neither the artist nor the humanist will ever multiply one man by a thousand and find as an answer just a thousand men. That is one important reason why an officer should receive his Hbasic education from the humanists. It may also be remarked that I have said nothing of science or philosophy. I do not mean to neglect these tremendous and important areas of thought and investigation. But again I am considering the bare essentials of an officeris edu- cation as distinguished from his training. I would give him, if I could, a knowledge of scientific investigation. I would think him unfortunate if he had no such know- ledge. And I would think that his instruction in history and literature had been 150 R. M. C. Review totally inadequate if he were not carried on into the realms of abstract and speculative thought. But I would build surely and steadily on the foundations of human experience most readily comprehended and appreciated by a young man. And if we build on these there will be no need in a crisis hurriedly to organize classes about the foundations for civilization for officers and men because someone has discovered that they are fighting for democracy and that they donlt know what it is. The articles of our faith cannot be learned in a hurry. Propaganda is no substitute for education. The spiritual weapons we need in time of danger must be slowly forged and tempered in time of peace. And this brings me to the fact that your education as men and citizens inevitably and imperceptibly blends with your training as an officer. Your first and last duty, the one which covers and includes all the others, is to lead men. You must be able to deal intelligently with your own problems and with those under you Your training will enable you to deal with specifically military problems. There are, however. others more subtle, moral and intellectual difficulties which should be your especial concern. It is of these that I wish to speak for a few minutes. It is now nearly a century since Canada witnessed the first strong outburst of national feeling -the Canada First movement. One of its leaders said: HWe are sending our young men to defend our frontiers, we want a principle to defend our young men . He did not desire, he feared the effects of an unthinking sacri- fice. He was, at the moment, more concerned with the spirit than with the weapons of the young men. Modern military men would say that he was not wrong, only they would use the word morale. If men's minds can be kept fruitfully and creatively on what they are defend- ing. they can view the method at once more critically and more tolerantly, more sanely and more intelligently. The whole problem of national defence should indeed lead us to the question, What is a nation? By what rights does it exist? Such questions were not much discussed in the nineteenth century when the nation was accepted as a personality with an inherent right not only to existence -- but in many quarters - to everything else it could lay hands on. It had been asked and answered very often in previous ages and it is being asked at the present time. What is a nation? What is the Canadian nation? How does our collective existence justify the enormous sacrihces that may be needed to main- tain our integrity? Or is our existence justihed? These are truly searching questionsg but they are questions which every Canadian and every Canadian officer should ask and try to answer. After all, it is a serious thing to ask other people to serve a cause devotedly that you cannot clearly define, and heartily defend. I should like to offer for your consideration a quotation from St. Augustine The C ity of God which has, I think, much in it to merit the attention of every Canadian. as indeed of every patriotic citizen in any country: HA nation is an association of reasonable beings united in the peaceful sharing of the things they cherishg therefore to determine the quality of a nation you must consider what those things are . Those concerned with national defence are defending the essence of the nation. St. Augustine finds this essence in the common life. And further. he implies that the kind of nation you are depends on the kind of things you cherish and how you cherish them. One is reminded of the words of Cromwell, the founder of the modern British Army. HGive me, he said, 'fa man who knows what he fights for, and loves what he knows . You can best defend what you know and what you love. There are, of course, many things which we share, and we do not all of us cherish 1953 1 51 them all equally. Canada is great and rich country. To some national defence will undoubtedly mean defence of the right to use and enjoy vast natural resources. To many others it will mean some part of the Canadian countryside or a town or village which has somehow taken into itself the whole meaning of our great and sprawling country. Others stillwill share in some degree the feeling of Jules Romain's French soldier in the trenches before Verdun who says, HAH that matters to me in this world is the language of France, the cathedrals of our French countryside, the quays of the Seine, landscapes that can be found nowhere else in this world, a way of life that is unique. lf all that is to be taken away life has no longer any point . . . All these things will be included in the answer to the question f'What are we defending? It will be for you as men not only trained but educated to see all these things and to see them in a larger context. It is for you to master, to some degree at least, the meaning and purpose of our civilization. You will see it as more than the resources of the soil, more than the beauty of the countryside. more even than the power of the mind. You will find in it powers of renunciation as well as powers of enjoyment. Even these we share with the dictatorships whose way of life we detest and deplore. In these life is cheap because the nation is everything, the man is nothing. We do not believe this, but we do believe that there are circumstances in which a man preserves all that is rich in his life by spending it. And some of us believe that in our Western Christian civilization there are values that an individual can embrace so completely that he finds freedom in serving them. But the glory of our society is that the individual makes his spiritual dis- coveries for himself. It is not for me to tell you in set words what you may say to the man who asks, most reasonably, whether his nation is worth defending. What I must do is remind you that your men, in the last analysis, do not fight on their stomachs or on paper or on psychology or on recreation. They light as good men have always fought, on a reasoned faith. For this they may well look to you. You are here not to learn it, it is not a matter for study and fmemorization. But you are here to become in knowledge, in conviction and in conduct the kind of person fit to show to others what his nation is, and why it must be defended. . .1 ,,,,W4. , , an ' N4 .'..

M.C., who is the President of Atomic Research of Canada, Ltd., has had a distinguished career in education and public life in Canada. Born in New Brunswick and educated initially at Dalhousie University, he became, after World War I, Professor and later Dean of Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan. In 1939, he became President of the National Research Council of Canadag in recent years, he has directed the development of atomic energy in Canada. For his services to science, Dr. Mackenzie has been decorated by France and the United States. He holds many honorary degrees from universities throughout the world. It is difficult to think of atomic energy these days without thinking of the bomb and its appalling potential for mass destruction, but it is equally difficult, if not impossible, to bring the true significance of atomic energy into proper pers- pective if we do think of fissile material as being primarily the explosive element of bombs. That attitude has tended to confuse our general thinking about the peace- ful applications of atomic energy. Canada is the only country in the world with sizable atomic energy establish- ments where no bombs are being made, and where all the thinking and planning is focused on peacetime aspects. For this reason I believe we can say that our atomic scientists and engineers, unlike those in other countries, have been able to work in a scientific atmosphere more nearly resembling that existing under normal conditions. This has been our good fortune, and it has also, I think, made it easier for us to keep our long-term thinking and planning on a more realistic foundation. Because the problems of bombs, reactors, power, isotopes and radiation hazards are so numerous, complicated and interconnected, and surrounded by so many uncertainties, fears and apprehensions, we often lose sight momentarily of the fundamental and all-important fact that fission made available to mankind a completely new and enormous source of uenergyf' As we all know so well, f'energy is the basis of our material welfare, and, therefore, the promise of a new and large source of power is of the greatest significance in a power-hungry world where demands are increasing in a phenomenal way, and at the same time con- ventional power resources are diminishing at an alarming rate. Nuclear investigations of distinction have been carried out in Canadian uni- versities since the early days of this century, when Rutherford and Soddy did their classical work at McGill, and in this field the contributions of physicists at Queen's have been outstanding. However, the large-scale organized atomic energy activities as we know them today really started in Canada in 1942, when an official delegation of British scientists came to Canada with the request that we set up in this country, under the administration of the National Research Council, a joint British-Canadian laboratory to which would be transferred the British teams then working in England. This was agreed to by the two governments concerned, and late in 1942 the National Research Council opened up a laboratory in Montreal. The effort was a joint one until the end of the war. Since that time we have collaborated closely but have both carried on our own programs in completely separate establishments. To recreate the proper setting let us look at what the well-informed layman knew about the atom in 1939, when the discovery of fission was announced. First, he was aware that work on radioactive substances had led physicists to conclude that tied up in the atom in some quite incomprehensible way there was an unbelievably large store of energy. But I do not think the ordinary man believed it would ever be available in any large-scale practical way, even if it did exist theoretically. Again, most people knew that step by step over the years scientists had become convinced that matter was made up of smaller and again smaller particles, and the atom of 1939 was no longer the simple tiny bit of solid matter it once 1953 153 was supposed to be, but had become, in the minds of scientists, a small, complex solar system, consisting mostly of empty space, with a central heavy nucleus around which revolved very small and light particles called electrons, each one of which carried a negative electric charge. The nucleus was supposed to be made up of two kinds of particles: protons and neutrons-the former carrying a positive electrical charge and being much heavier than the electrons, and the neutrons being the same weight as the protons but with no charge whatsoever. Also, those with some knowledge of chemistry knew that when elements combined to form compounds the interaction between the atoms concerned was confined to the electron envelope of those atoms, and that nothing happened to the nuclei. For instance, when coal burns and gives off heat, the energy does not come from any reaction in the nuclei of the carbon and oxygen, but from the rearrangement of the electrons encircling these nuclei. It is important to keep in mind that the heat given off by ordinary chemical reactions-like combustion- is a very different thing from the atomic energy released from the nucleus when an atom is smashed, that is, when carbon and oxygen combine and form carbon dioxide the atoms are exactly the same at the finish. This is not so in nuclear reaction, for in such instances we have transmutation of elements. Another thing that had been known for a number of years by those of some scientific background was the fact that there were various kinds of atoms of the same element which behaved chemically in the same way, but differed in weight, that is, the nuclei had the same number of protons but a different number of neu- trons. And these different kinds of atoms of the same element were called isotopes. Many isotopes are unstable and continually disintegrate: these are called radio- active isotopes. It was known, for instance, that in uranium Cone of the heavier elementsl the nucleus of every atom was a very complicated thing. Each nuclei had ninety- two protons with an encircling cloud of an equal number of negatively charged electrons. But while most of the atoms of uranium, about 99.3 per cent, had one hundred and forty-six neutrons nestled in with the ninety-two protons. .7 percent, or one in every one hundred and forty atoms, had only one hundred and forty- three neutrons in its nucleus. These two different isotopes are identified by their total weightg namely, the sum of the neutrons and protons, and called isotopes U-235 and U-238. Now for the fundamental discovery of 1939. It had been known for some time that nuclear scientists in their laboratories had been able to dislodge particles from the nucleus of various elements by shooting very high velocity particles or bullets into the nucleus. They had told us that in this way they had been able to release in small quantities some of the energy tied up in the nucleus and achieve transmutation of elements. But the fact remained that it took more work and energy to speed up the atomic bullets than was obtained from the subsequent release. There was no chain reaction established and no energy proht resulted. This was, of course, interesting, but from the standpoint of obtaining much wanted energy in quantity, it did not mean anything. Then came the discovery of fission, which, as I have said, was the funda- mental discovery that triggered off the spectacular developments of the last decade. It was found that the isotope U-235 had a most unique property: if it were hit by a neutron, instead of liberating a tiny bit of energy, the whole atom exploded into two more or less equal parts made up of entirely different elements, and as a result of this explosion, or fission as it was called, a large quantity of energy was released, and there also were emitted between two and three high velocity neutrons. These neutrons, it was predicted, could under proper conditions be made to attack other U-235 atoms, and thus maintain a chain reaction with the ultimate possibility of releasing energy of hitherto unbelievable magnitude. 154 R. M. C. Review 1 think it is interesting to recall the public reaction when this discovery was made. There was no secrecy or thought of secrecy about atomic energy matters in those days, and scores of scientfic papers were published giving all the funda- mental information obtained about nuclear fission, and up until as late as 1941 practically all information was freely exchanged between scientists of the world. Some of you may remember reading popular articles in the magazines that gave imaginative prophecies of what atomic energy would mean. I have a copy of such an article dated July 7, 1940. It speaks of the world 'centering a period of unparalleled riches and opportunity for man . It says that the availability of such special and abundant power will remove the economic stresses that immemorially have caused war and make war itself obsolete? There are pictures of motor cars and boats going thousands of miles without refueling, and airplanes propelled by atomic jets cruising at altitudes of over 250,000 feet, with the suggestion that all of this will cost very little. The author of that article was, of course, a bit out on his cost estimates and other predictions, as he did not properly appraise the difficulties of developmentg but in 1940 the fundamental theory was all there for anyone to read, and it is significant that no one thought of bombs at that time. Today our enthusiasm for 'funparalleled riches has become sobered a bit by the difiiculties we have to overcome, but personally, 1 am of the opinion that the real prospects have not dimmed. It is very important to remember that those who discovered Hssion were merely carrying on in a field of fundamental research that had been actively pursued since 1900. They had no thought of any military applications in connection with the release of atomic energy, and even in 1940 there were few scientists in the world who had thought of the possibility of atomic bombs. 1 would like to point out that if the war of 1914-1918 had, in fact, ended all wars, as we hoped it would, I doubt if anyone would have yet thought of an atomic bomb, and the development of atomic energy power would have taken the normal course of all technological developments. There would not have been billions of dollars spent on research and development, and the progress in many ways would have been slower and less costly per year. But it will be for the historians of 2000 AD. to determine whether or not the bomb accelerated the realization of a great peacetime boon, or set back the march of civilization by half a century. This then was the picture as I saw it when the British delegation referred to visited Canada. They informed me that their scientists had become convinced that there was a real possibility of making an atomic bomb of great power. They said they had two groups making feasibility studies: one group was working on the so-called Military Project, with the object of separating the fissile U-235 isotope from the more numerous and relatively useless U-238 isotope by a diffusion process. The separated U-235 was to be used for a bomb, and in fact the first bomb ever exploded was so made. The other group was investigating the possibilities of what they termed the Power Scheme, using what we now call reactors. The second was a controlled process which would produce a new fissile element Plutonium from the originally useless U-238, while at the same time producing heat and other by-products. The British proposal was that the Power Scheme group should come to Canada, where this work could be carried out as a joint project. Our first commitment was to set up a nuclear research laboratory, which was opened in Montreal late in 1942. At the Quebec Conference, 1943, a tripartite agreement was made between Churchill, Roosevelt and Mackenzie King in which we in Canada undertook to finance and build the now well-known Chalk River establishment. At that time we could not see clearly far into the future, we did not know whether or not we would succeed in building a reactor, or what would happen after the war was over, but it did appear to be an exceptional opportunity for Canada to get in on the ground fioor of a novel and potentially important 19153 1 55 field of science and technology. When the war did end we found ourselves with a research reactor that had proven to be more successful that we had any right to expect. It soon attracted widespread attention as probably the best research facility of its kind in the world, and with its high flux, our scientists were able to do many things which could not be done elsewhere, and they soon built up an excellent international reputation by their contributions in this field. The generalized theory of reactors is simple. As l have said, it was found that when Hssion of one U-235 atom occurs, in addition to heat energy and radia- tion, there is also released from two to three spare neutrons. It was soon realized that if sufficient spare neutrons could not be kept available to set off further 235 atoms, the process would fizzle out. But if surplus neutrons could be made avail- able, then what is called a 'Lchain reactionv would be set up, and the process of energy release would be continuous. A reactor is a device for doing just that. But it does more. In the type of reactor we have it is necessary to slow down the spare neutrons, as it was found that if the speed of the escaping neutrons could be reduced to thermal velocities, they could be readily absorbed by U-238 atoms, and as a con- sequence, in addition to keeping the chain reaction going, there would be enough neutrons to form a brand new element called plutonium, which is also fissionable. In other words, if enough spare neutrons of suitable velocities can be made avail- able, a reactor could be made that would not only produce heat, but for every lissile U-235 atom destroyed, an altogether new type or fissile atom called pluton- ium would be created from the otherwise useless U-238 atoms. This looks some- thing like eating your cake and still having it, but something approaching that is being done. A third point and we have the main factors of reactor theory. The escaping neutrons, unfortunately, are capable of being absorbed by other materials besides U-235 and U-238. Accordingly, a difficult design requirement is that construction materials must not only be sufficiently strong, resistant to corrosion and radiation, but they must not absorb an excessive number of neutrons, as otherwise the process outlined will not be maintained. Now the next step. Assume we turn all the U-235 into plutonium twhich we can'tJ, we then take the rod out of the pile and extract the plutoniumw-a process which is, if not easy, at least reasonably straightforward, as plutonium is a different element and can be separated from the uranium and fission products by chemical means. A reactor then is a device into which we put normal uranium rods and get out a final product called plutonium. We end up with nearly the same amount of fissile material that we started with, and in the process we have created a lot of energy as heat, which some day we will turn to practical use. As a by-product we also get radioactive isotopes, which are proving to be of the greatest importance, fission products, and irradiation facilities of great potential value. Our Chalk River reactor is called a heavy water reactor because heavy water is used to slow down or moderate the neutrons. A suitable moderating material must have certain qualities. It must be able to slow down the neutrons in an appropriate manner, but not absorb them, and the material must be avail- able commercially. Up to date only two such materials can be obtained in com- mercial quantities, one is graphite, the other heavy water. The large reactors in the United States and United Kingdom use graphite. The Canadian reactor uses heavy-water. But the fundamental processes are the same. Two other points about reactors. Provision must be made to remove the heat produced, and protection must be provided against the enormous radiation given off. tThe radiation from the Chalk River reactor is equal to that which would be given off by tons of radium. Few hospitals have more than one gram of radium, and you know the great precautions they have to take to protect per- sonnel from lethal radiationj. 156 R. M. C. Review Gur reactors consist of a cylindrical tank filled with heavy water, in which are suspended uranium rods. The rods are encased in a thin aluminium tube, and a second and larger concentric tube provides an annular space through which ordinary cooling water can be circulated. The tank is surrounded on all sides with several feet of concrete to protect workers against radiation. It all sounds very simple. The tank is not very large, and yet the whole structure costs many millions of dollars. Why? There are two factors which make the construction and operation of an atomic oven or reactor more difficult and intricate than, say, a high-pressure boiler. The first and most important is the intense radiation given off by the reactions. ln normal operations personnel must be shielded behind feet of con- crete, remote-control devices are numerous and intricate, and innumerable shut- off and safety control devices are necessary, all of which means miles of special wiring. piping, etc. Repairs of breaks or leaks which would take only a few hours in a steam plant may take weeks, because of the tedious and time-consuming work of decontamination required before workers can even approach a damaged pipe or fitting. Again, the disposal of radioactive wastes, none of which can be discharged into a river, creates abnormal problems which are difficult and at present very expensive. The second factor making for high costs is one of design. The presence of radiation and the need for conservation of neutrons often demands structural material of most unusual properties which is not in commercial production. Such material has to withstand the combination of normal stress, plus the uncertain effect of high temperatures and intense radiation. The problem of removing a large quantity of heat from small areas represents a novel problem in the design of heat exchangers, the need for special remote-control devices is extensive and expensive, and the corrosion problem is everywhere and of utmost importance. But all these difficulties are being met successfully, and in a matter of years it will be possible to build reactors and operate them more safely and for less money than at present. We have two reactors at Chalk River which have been operating for several years as experimental units. The larger one NRX, as I have mentioned, has been a most successful research tool, and its unusual performance and the quality and quantity of the research results obtained by our scientists have been the subject of much favorable comment throughout the world. At the present time we have research teams doing fundamental work in physics, chemistry and biological sciences, all of which gives basic information to the chemical and nuclear engineers who are concerned with many practical projects such as producing radioactive isotopes, improving chemical extraction processes, developing uses for Hssion products, and other such matters. At the moment we are busy on the design and construction of a still larger unit which will be both a development and producing reactor, thus expanding our operating experience with heavy water reactors. Our next task, and the most important immediate challenge, is to study the feasibility of, and prepare preliminary designs and cost estimates for, industrial atomic power plantsw. While no one can say when industrial atomic power plants will become a major contributor, it is my opinion that someone, somewhere will be operating a prototype atomic power plant within a period of five to six years. I would not have said that two years ago. My opinion today is based not only on the results of our own research and experience, but also on the growing interest of industrial power interests in the United States and United Kingdom, where many corporations are making serious studies and considering investing some of their own money and facilities in such enterprises. What form will the first sizable plants take? 1953 1 57 If there were no existing stockpiles of fissile material made for war, that would be an easy question to answer. But fissile material is relatively durable, and when the threats of war are over, the United States will have large stores which can be turned over to peaceful uses. We in Canada have no such stockpiles and our position is more nearly what the normal world position would be if there had been no bomb. I think our planning is more realistic for that reason and is the best guide for all other bomb- less nations. At the risk of oversimplification, therefore, I suggest there are two broad fields of application. The first one we can see reasonably clearly now, the second We recognize but at present cannot outline in any detail. It is essential to remember we are operating in a field where opinion changes from day to day as experience is gained and new information becomes available. Different specialists hold widely divergent views about the future, and no one can be sure of how developments will occur. Today in 1953 it seems to many of us in Canada that our next step should be to study the design and construction of a dual-purpose natural uranium reactor. This would be a reactor similar to our present ones, but run at temperatures high enough to produce steam instead of just hot water. The steam would, in turn, run a conventional turbine generator, and we would have a plant producing two major products - fissile plutonium and commercial power- and, in addition, the various by-products-isotopes, fission products, and so forth. When we are considering commercial power, economics become a vital factor. Such power must be competitive in price. It is obvious that if a sufficiently high price can be obtained for the fissile material produced, the accompanying power can be sold at prices competitive with modern large steam plants. Cn the other hand, if the fissile material cannot be sold, then power cannot be delivered at ordinary central station prices. It is clear, therefore, that the long-term attractiveness of atomic energy depends on finding uses for fissile material where the user can afford to pay more than central power systems now charge. In America at present such an outlet for fissile material exists for making bombs, where costs do not matter, and for submarine engines, where normal power costs are already very high. The bomb market is, of course, artificial, and we hope it will be limited by time. The submarine engine may, however, serve as a prototype for small Hpackage-type industrial power plants. Such plants might be economical in remote places and in power-poor countries of the world where fuel freight costs are now prohibitive. The advantages would be due fr: the fact that in one trip of a small airplane enough fuel could be brought in to last several years. One can think of certain other obvious uses, but I firmly believe that the most important future uses are still unthought of. However, when one recalls that a pound of fissile material, which can be held in the palm of one's hand, is equal in energy value to a thousand tons of coal, one must conclude that the ingenuity of man will rapidly find profitable uses for such a material once it becomes available for industrial purposes. In 1947 President Truman said the release of atomic energy, which has brought man within sight of world devastation, has just as truly brought him the promises of a brighter future. The potentialities of atomic power are as great for human betterment as for human annihilation? Those were brave words in 1947, supported by little but faith and hope. Today, as the result of five more years of research and experience, I am convinced that prophecy is more firmly based. I feel we are in a real sense prospecting in a field where the possible rewards for mankind are great. I believe we have opened up most promising leads, and I think it imperative that we continue our present efforts with undiminished courage, faith and energy. No. 1828 BRIG. G. E.

By NO. 2435, Lt.-C01. R. T. BENNETT, o.B.E. N 2nd April 1951, lexicography scored yet another victory! SACEUR, or Supreme Allied Commander Europe, proclaimed SHAPE - Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe -- to be an actuality by assuming operational control of the forces dedicated to the defence of Western Europe. SHAPE! What is it? Why is it? Where is it? If you can answer these, this article is not for you. But before dismissing in cavalier fashion all that lies behind five such simple characters, roughly one fifth of our alphabet, think again! You would not be the first to expand NSHAPEW into Supreme Headquarters All Parti- cipants Europe , or other equally erroneous forms! Two years less two days were to elapse between the signing of the original North Atlantic Treaty in Washington and the formal appearance of SHAPE in the vicinity of Paris. Late in 1950 an international group of 44 officers gathered in the Hotel Astoria, Paris, as the SHAPE Planning Group. All were from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization countries and the respective services of those countries, that is, the navy, the army, and the air force. Of this particular aspect, General Eisenhower, the first SACEUR, said: However, here we hold ourselves as a single entity in carrying out the objectives of the North Atlantic Treaty Organ- ization and in building a strong defense for the purpose of preserving the peace. Actually, for the purposes of operation, we shall set aside our individual nation- alitiesf' From this small, dedicated band was created the first military head- quarters within the NATO structure. Four months later, on 23rd july, 1951, the move of the headquarters from the Hotel Astoria to its permanent peacetime site was completed. SHAPE is located adjacent to the miniscule village of Rocquencourt, about 8 kilo- meters northwest of Versailles and 15 kilometers west of Paris, on the West Auto- route. The 60-acre tract was formerly part of the hunting ground of the President of the French Republic in the Commune of Louveciennes. The land had been occupied recently by Monsieur Hertault who for the past twenty years had been a tenant farmer on the property. Monsieur Hertault is living in a farm-house adjacent to SHAPE Headquarters, built originally in the 13th Century and later restored by Louis XIV. Construction of the Headquarters building was under the direct supervision of the French Army Engineers and French commercial contractors were employed in the construction of the project. Construction was begun on 12 March 1951, and the first units of SHAPE began moving into the new Headquarters exactly four months later. All the buildings in SHAPE are prefabricated one-story types constructed with a center corridor from which 18 wings run at right angles. The center corridor extends some 650 feet from the main entrance to the rear of the building. In addition to the main office building, which includes an Officers' Mess and a Cafe- teria, there are four buildings utilized as Bachelor Officers' Quarters, barracks for enlisted male personnel and three for women personnel. Three messes, French, British, and American, are provided for all enlisted personnel. Heat for all the buildings is through a radiant system built into the fioors. 1 It is, perhaps, an interesting aside to note that General Eisenhower lent practical emphasis to this theme by issuing an order on 29 January 1951 to the effect that means had been provided for all members of the Headquarters to be given an hour of instruction daily in either French or English - the only official languages of NATO. The practice continues. SITE OF S. H. A. P.

C. Review the Military Representatives Committee, in addition, there is the Military Stand- ardization Agency. The sphere of Command embraces the Canada-U.S. Regional Planning Group. SACEUR, SACLANT CSupreme Allied Commander Atlanticj, the Channel Comittee, and a series of subordinate commands. To describe, even in general terms, the scope and functions of each of these inter-related bodies and geographical areas would require a much more extensive article than this purports to be. However, the mere listing of some of their names will provide the reader with a small measure of familiarity. Within all this, SHAPE is responsible, under the general direction of the Standing Group, for the defence of the allied countries of continental Europe against invasion. Thus SACEUR would in time of War control all land, sea, and air operations in Europe to this end. Internal security and defence of coastal Waters remain a national responsibility, but the Supreme Commander Would have full authroity to carry out such operations in these areas as he considered necessary for the defence of Western Europe. SACEUR's functions are defined as: Cal The organization and training of the various units of the armed forces of the North Atlantic countries allotted to his command to ensure that they are knit together into one unified force. fbi The preparation of defence plans. Ccj Making recommendations to the Standing Group about such matters as the adequacy and training of his forces, and indeed on any military questions which effect his ability to carry out his res- ponsibilities in peace and war. The Supreme Commander ordinarily receives his directions from the Standing Group, but he has the right of direct access to the Chiefs of Staff of any of the NATO Powers, and in exceptional circumstances, to Defence Ministers and Heads of Governments. In addition, all the North Atlantic countries maintain military liason officers at SHAPE who are responsible for the day-to-day liaison with their Chiefs of Staff. The Supreme Commander obtains political guidance through the Standing Group from the NATO Council.

How- ever, if supporting organizations such as the Signals Battalion, a Car Company, a Provost Company, etc, are excluded the total staff required for SHAPE alone Cas of 1 September 19523 amounts to 800, of which nearly half are officers. Canada's contribution is presently 7 officers and 16 other ranks from both the Army and RCAF, though these numbers are increasing slowly month by month. On 5th October 1951, General Eisenhower authorized military and civilian personnel assigned to SHAPE to wear a new insignia, bearing SHAPE's official motto VIGILIA PRETIUM LlBERTATIS QVigilance is the Price of Libertyj. At the same time an official SHAPE flag bearing the new insignia and motto was raised on the Headquarters building to join the ffags of the NATO countries flying in the main forecourt. The source of the motto can be found in a speech by John Philpot Curran delivered in 1790 upon the right of election. Two gold swords, unsheathed, are superimposed on a gold scroll bearing the official maxim: HVigilia Pretium Libertatis . Two sprays of olive leaves in gold at the bottom of the scroll indicate dedication of the NATO nations to peace, the swords show the armed strength necessary to preserve the peace. The position of the swords produces the letter HA representing Allies. Within the scroll, and behind the swords, are twelve silver fronds stemming from the olive sprays and denoting the original signatories of the North Atlantic Treaty. They produce by their position rays of hope. The whole design is superimposed on a shield of dark green. The shield represents the crusading nature of SHAPE's mission and its colour signifies the peaceful woods and fields of Europe. That, in briefest outline, is SHAPE - an organization perhaps unique in the annals of military history. Speaking of NATO as a whole, General Eisenhower has said, 'fln the past great coalitions have often been joined in greed or hatred, our union seeks nothing that we do not now own. It does not seek to thrust on others our own system of beliefs. It is solely an effort to forge a protective weapon to ensure a safe peacew. In those few words can be found the raison d'6tre for SHAPE - the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe. But perhaps the 'Oxford Dictionary is more prophetic, for there SHAPE'7 is defined as . . . to create, form, construct, . . bring into desired or definite form . . or more simply, the responsibility originally assumed by General Eisenhower 19th Dec- ember 1950 and now borne by his successor, General Ridgway. 170 R. M. C. Review ESPRIT DE CORPS By No. 2290 Colonel D. MENARD, D.S.O., C.D. Th: following article is reprinted from The Canadian Gimnvr, Shilo, Man., 25th July, 1952. Every Regiment, every Corps of the Canadian Army, is proud of its traditions and its record of service in peace and in war. With bated breath, almost, the newly inducted soldier listens to tales of prowess and of daring that have enabled the past history of his service. Gradually, scarcely perceived, the raw recruit is iilled with. entirely imbued with, the spirit of his unit or arm of the service. Gradually he comes to know and be proud of what his comrades have done - for they are now his. He feels that though he may never have known them in the flesh, they are nonetheless truly his companions for they have served in his unit. And with the growth of this feeling of pride and loyalty and comradeship, the new recruit becomes a soldier, smart on parade because he wants to equal or better the records of the past, becomes a gentleman and a man, so that by his conduct no one need be ashamed - either the comrades of the past or the comrades of the present. If he is an Artilleryman, there is no title he wears more proudly than that of Gunner . If he is an Infantryman, he is proud to belong to that arm, without which no war could be won. If he is an Engineer, he revels in the name of 'fSapper . Whatever the arm of his service, he becomes proud of it and will work and train and play, always in the best traditions of his group But what is the spark, the motive, the spirit that makes men proud of their regiment, of their service? Does it rest in the exploits of the past? Is it the unity of man to man, that spirit that seems to grow up among a group of men pursuing the same interests, doing the same things, working for the same ideals? Is it the loyalty of soldier to his soldier? ls it found in every good regiment? ls it the loyalty of soldier to his soldier? Is it found in every good regiment? ls it that spirit that turns a mediocre or poor outfit into a good one? Or can it be the same aim in an efficient and cheerful manner? It is all this and possibly more. It is called ESPRIT DE CORPS. But Esprit de Corps is not easily defined, nor are the qualities that go with it easily delineated. It is perhaps easy to say that it is the spirit of teamwork. It is harder to realize that to produce the spirit of teamwork, many virtues and qualities are required. And the lirst of these is friendship, a comradeship of man to man. But to maintain a constant comradeship think of what is required - almost the charity of the saint, and certainly the tolerance of the gentleman. Think, too, of the lesser virtues - tact and diplomacy to smooth over the possible rough edges of natures jarring upon other natures - work and discipline, too, are needed, for in a slack and lazy unit, nothing ever goes easily and the men are always grumbling and unhappy. The morale of the men must be high and the morals strong, or gradually the unit will fall to pieces. And yet, this requires a degree of physical and spiritual fitness that is, unfortunately, not too common. And too, let us not forget in all this, the obedience we owe to God and our country. When, in any unit or service, one finds all this, the unit is smart on parade, skilled in its specialty, cheerful in the performance of its duties, loyal to its officers, gentlemanly and sportsmanlike at play or in recreation, - then we say and know for sure that that unit has ESPRIT DE CORPS. 1953 171 HE BEAT THE ARMY SYSTEM by No. 1472 S. Tupper Bigelow There was a certain time in World War 11 when a goodly number of Canada's young men rushed to heed the call to the colours in the Royal Canadian Air Force while. at the same time, the Army and Navy were having more than a little diffi- culty with their recruiting. This was no great mystery to anyone but the press and the public. The top brass at Ottawa well knew that if a citizen enlisted as ground-crew in the R.C.A.F., there was not the remotest possibility that he would ever be put in such an ignominious and uncomfortable position that he would be obliged to listen to a shot Hred in anger. Because in the air force, once ground-crew, always ground-crew. Whereas, in the other two unimaginative services, there was always the possibility that an enlisted army cook might suddenly find himself in the front lines equipped with distasteful and unfamiliar weapons and ordered to take a nearby machine-gun emplacement single-handed, or a naval writer might find himself assigned to some Atlantic convoy where the odds of surviving even one trip had already been worked out by naval statisticians to be 8 to 5 against. And word was getting around that conscription, or a reasonable facsimile, might suddenly come into being. The parliamentarians, indeed, were using such obscure language when they spoke on the subject in the House of Commons, that what they said was open to whatever interpretation anyone cared to put upon it. And so it was, in these unhappy circumstances, that Mr. E. G. Jackson, a young man of military age residing in Vancouver, threw down the gage of battle and became an AC2 at the local Works and Buildings Detachment. As Jackson had been a draughtsman in civil life, it was entirely illogical that he should be enrolled Cor, as the quaint air force expression had it, musteredj in the trade of a draughtsman in the air force, but such accidents happened from time to time. It was no one's fault. CI must frankly admit at this point that the name uJackson,' is a weird pseudonym or nom de course I thought up by myself, and was really not our hero's name at all. I am obliged to use it, however, because Jackson,' is still around and about, and as you read on, if you can manage it, you will understand that he must have by now an encyclopaedic knowledge of the law of libel. And as I know a little about this harsh law myself, I should not like Jackson to plaster me with a libel writ, as such things have a way of becoming very expensive matters, and take the very food out of the very mouths of one's loved ones.J In short order, Jackson became unhappy in the service. For one thing, the pay of an aircraftman, second class, 351.30 a day, was not really enough to pro- vide Jackson with the amenities of life to which he had some time before become accustomed. It was late in the war, and Jackson saw no hope of immediate or any promotion. Jackson had, then, only two simple problems: CID How to get out of the air force, and C23 How to avoid conscription, once out. He consulted a lawyer-officer on the detachment, and stated that as he was anxious to get on in the service, he would like to learn a little air force law. The 172 R. M. C. Review simple-minded officer, duly ffattered, provided Jackson with the Manual of Air Force Law. the Kings Regulations CAirJ, and a number of other publications and official documents that would help the earnest young law student on his way. Jackson discovered some astonishing matters in these works. Not the least astonishing was the procedure set out for Redress of Curievances. This was fascinating reading. lt appeared that if an airman had a grievance Cand Jackson was an airman. make no mistake about that, it said so in the books, just as penguins, ostriches and kiwis are birdsj, all he had to do was write it out and send it to his commanding officer. ignoring the usual chain of command. Then, Jackson read on with ever- increasing fervour, if that grievance were not immediately redressed by the commanding officer, it could be made to the Air Officer Commanding, and if no action were forthcoming, to the Chief of the Air Staff, and so on until it reached the foot of the throne. Now there's really a law, Jackson thought. He perfected his knowledge of this occult procedure, and when he was quite ready, he despatched his first request for a redress of grievance to his commanding officer. Something about the food in the airmen's mess being unfit for pigs. j The commanding officer, quite unfamiliar with the procedure, filed it in his basket marked, ffThings To Do Tomorrow . When Jackson really got going, however, the commanding officer's basket, marked in such a lazy and disorderly manner, became full to overflowing. jackson was always original, except for his first complaint, which was old hat to the commanding officer, but in fairness to Jackson, it must be remarked that he was just getting started on his career as an applicant for redress of grievances. They got better, of course, as they went along. Another complaint was that his Flight Commander had been rude to him on parade. Still another was that the padre at Command Headquarters, whom Jackson had consulted in some spirit- ual conflict, had usold him a bill of goods and given him a lot of phonusbolonusf instead of contributing to the welfare of his soul. Another still, that there were too many dogs running loose on the premises, among others, the commanding officer's, which as well as being against the provisions of K.R. CAirD, offended the city by- laws. There were a lot of others, I fancy there were thirty or forty of them, all told. It was at this stage in the Jackson saga when the commanding officer came to me with his troubles. At the time, I was fulfilling the honourable but very lowly position of junior assistant to the Judge Advocate at Command Headquarters. and it was to my desk that all legal, quasi-legal and more-or-less legal matters eventually came, unless they involved Courts-Martial. I advised the commanding officer to have his Adjutant parade Jackson, and tell him that all his applications for redress of grievances were rejected, and that we would take care of any further applications to Headquarters. That, I suppose, he did, but things had not been moving fast enough for Master Jackson. In the meantime, he had written to his member of parliament, verbosely quoting the relevant provisions of air force law he had by then at his finger-tips, and the member of parliament fwho, I heard later, had a scunner against the air force for some totally incomprehensible reasonj moved in at once and took the matter to the Minister of Air. The Minister got the necessary machinery going, and in due time, my Air Officer Commanding was instructed to convene a Court of Inquiry to look into the whole sorry affair. 1953 173 Setting up this Court of Inquiry was my business, and I set to it with a will. No very clever young man, I now laughingly recall I observed, would make a fool of the air force or his commanding officer. I selected the Court myself. In the Command at that time, we had a very tough hombre, a Wing Commander Gaius Julius Manchester Wemyss, whose name alone bespoke his aristocratic background. Steeped in military lore and descended from many generations of professional soldiers, he was a disciplinarian of the highest order. Wemyss had done valiant service on many Courts-Martial in the west coast area, and was referred to affectionately as The Hanging Judge . Wemyss was never able to understand why it was illegal not to hang C or shoot, if there were mitigating circumstancesl air force personnel who did not meticulously observe all the requirements of air force law. It needed only a momentis reflection to select Wemyss as the President of the Court Then after careful thought, I selected two Squadron Leaders as members. One of them, at a Court-Martial, had wanted to sentence an airman to 99 years penal servitude for being absent without leave for 21 days Cwhich, he told me. was desertionj, so I thought he would be a good member. The other had recom- mended one of the airmen in his Squadron for a Field General Court-Martial for appearing on parade with his buttons not shined properly. So I thought I had a good Court. Jackson has the right to have witnesses brought to the Court of Inquiry, as he well knew. He filed a long list of witnesses who, according to air force law, he was entitled to have brought to the Court to give evidence. Some of them were in England, others were scattered all over this vast Dominion, and one, the Flight Lieutenant Jackson said had been rude to him on parade, had to be flown back to Vancouver from Cairo. Justice must be done. After the first morning of the Court's sitting, I met the President for lunch. 'This whole thing is simply impossible, he said. f'How far do I have to let Jackson go? He's simply unbearable. Three times this morning, I told him if he persisted in his attitude, I'd have him placed in close arrest for insubordinat1on! 4'Why, I said, f'you'll have to let him go just about as far as he likes. This is a Court of Inquiry, you know. It's not a Court-Martial. He has the right to ask witnesses questions, and you can't stop him? Yes, but his manner is most insulting. He even insulted me! Three times! Can't I put him in arrest for that? 4'No,,' I said placatingly, you'll just have to let him go on, you see. If you, the Great Disciplinarian, can't handle an AC2, maybe we could get a President who canf' Indeed?', the Wing Commander snarled. f'Perhaps you'd like to take over as President? Maybe you could handle him?H 6'Why not? I replied. But unluckily, I'm only a Flight Lieutenant, and the President of the Court has to be a Squadron Leader or better. We picked you at Command because we all thought you were the man for the job. But if you can't handle it, say so, and we'll appoint someone else. It will all probably go on your file, of course. I added a Sir', just in time. The next day, Wemyss adjourned the Court in the middle of the afternoon and came to see me at Command Headquarters. He was livid. 'Tm telling you, he said, this wonit do! I can put up with just so much! 174 R. M. C. Review This Court of Inquiry, for one thing, will last six months. And I don't propose to put up with jackson's impertinence any longer. There must be something in the books to take care of it, and if I do put him under arrest for insubordination, there isn't a Court-Martial you could dream up that wouldn't tile Jackson away for life for what he's pulled off so far. Do you know what he did this morning? Why- Never mind, Sir, I interrupted. 4'It doesn't matter. This is Jackson's show, and you're bound to let him go through with it. He has the right to examine and cross-examine witnesses, whether officers or not, and if he's a little rude to you, you've got to put up with it. Your job is simply to listen to the evidence, and determine at the end of it whether Jackson had any valid right to make his applications for redress of his grievances. That's all there is to it. Just forget you're on a parade ground until the thing is over. The Wing Commander departed, muttering things under his breath that if I had outranked him, there might have been another Court of Inquiry, or perhaps a Court-Martial. But I worried about it that night, and I decided to go to the Court the next morning and see things for myself. When I got there, the Flight Lieutenant Jackson had complained of as being rude to him on parade was in the witness-box. Do you consider, Sirj'-Jackson accented the Sir', in a very offensive manner, but not in such a way that you could put a finger on it, how can you say intonation is insulting? Or if you can, how do you prove it? -MDo you con- sider that it is proper for a Flight Commander to say of anyone in the Flight under his command, that he is a cloth-headed son-of-a-bitch? No, the Flight Lieutenant replied. I thought you'd say that, Jackson observed. He looked smugly around the court as if he had scored a tremendous forensic triumph. Do I understand you to sayf' Jackson continued, Nor even imply, that you never called a member of your Flight, when you were here at this detachment, a cloth-headed son-of-a-bitch? g'Not to my knowledgef' uDo you mean to say that you have the colossal effrontery to deny-re- member, you are on oath, witness! -that that is precisely what you called me on one occasion? 4'Yes. I mean no, said the Flight Lieutenant. Let me put the whole thing to you in the simplest language, witness, AC2 Jackson said in the most patronizing tones. 'CDO you actually mean to insult the intelligence of the members of this court by having the monstrous impudence, and if I may say so, Sir, with great respect, of course, the consummate gall, to assert, without fear of successful, or indeed, any contradiction, that you did not, at this detachment and elsewhere for that matter, on at least one occasion, and I can think of a lot more than that myself, call me, and a number of other members of your Flight, too, for that matter, all of whom unfortunately are not here today, but they may be before this farce is over, a cloth-headed, or for that matter, any other kind of a son-of-a-bitch? Answer yes or no, witness! Would you please repeat the question? the Flight Lieutenant asked politely. HI will have the court reporter read it back to you, Jackson said in a con- descending manner, and looked at the members of the court as if he were apologiz- ing for the hopeless half-wittedness of the witnesses he had called from various outposts of Empire. 1953 175 After the court reporter fumbled through his notes and came up with some- thing like what Jackson had asked the witness, the Flight Lieutenant said, I cannot answer the question yes or no. It was a simple question, witness, Jackson said silkily. It is susceptible of only four answers: 'Yes', 'Nolg 'I don't know'g or 'I donit rememberi. Which of these thoroughly stupid answers is yours? Jackson grinned at the Court. Even the grin, the President would have called dumb insolencew, and sentenced jackson then and there to thirty years in the salt mines for it, if he had the power to do it. Finally the Flight Lieutenant drew an answer from the innermost recesses of his mind. No matter what kind of a son-of-a-bitch you are, I cannot recall ever calling you a cloth-headed one, although if this is a privileged occasion, as I was informed it is, I should like to do so now, if I have the Court's permission. This just about brought down the house, but as levity or Laughter in Court in such dignified proceedings as Courts of Inquiry cannot be tolerated, I moved quickly to the President's side, and suggested that he adjourn the Court sine die. Nobody knew what this meant, including the President, but when he did it, everyone seemed satisfied, including Jackson. It means, of course, that the Court is adjourned until someone reconvenes it. Wemyss and I repaired to Command Headquarters to discuss the matter. The only thing to do, Sir, as I see it, I suggested, is to recommend to the A.O.C. that we kick Jackson out of the air force forthwith. A dishonourable discharge, with ignominy, you mean? Wemyss asked hopefully. Pm afraid not, I replied. 1t will have to be an administrative act on the usual grounds, 'as His Majesty has no further use for his services? But, hell, man, Wemyss protested, that's giving in to the swine! That's precisely what he's been after all the time! I dare sayj, I said, but do you want your Court of Inquiry to go on for six months? If it does, you'll be boarded out with a heart condition. And nobody can cope with Jackson under the weird provisions of air force law with respect to Redress of Grievances and the handling of Courts of Inquiry. We just have to admit that in this case, the 'army' system is wrong, and Jackson found its vulner- able point? Wemyss finally agreed and within 48 hours Aircraftman Second Class jackson, E.G. became Mr. Jackson again. Within three weeks, we heard by the service grapevine that Mr. Jackson had been taken on strength by Air Command Headquarters at Calgary in a civilian capacity as a draughtsman at a salary of S325 a month. And, of course, it need hardly be added that having been discharged from the air force, Jackson could not be conscripted, even as a zombie, in any branch of His Majestyas forces, no matter whether or what kind of ersatz conscription came into effect after that, even if the real thing did, Jackson was home free. None of the services would take such people. Jackson had carefully studied this aspect of the problem in the books, journals and documents he had graciously been given by the innocent Flight Lieutenant who had so unsuspectingly started Jackson on his career as a barrack-room lawyer. The second part of his problem had been solved before the first. And he's doing all right now. If I could afford it, I'd like to have him working for me. Myself, I don't think I would ever call Jackson cloth-headed, whatever else he might be called. 176 R. M. C. Review AN INTERESTING DOCUMENT By No. 1472 S. Tupper Bigelow During the last year, the Toronto Branch of the Royal Military College of Canada came into possession of an interesting document, and one of historical interest to all ex-cadets: a copy of the original By-Laws and Constitution of the parent club, dated 1886, in which are incorporated the minutes of the lirst and second annual meetings of the club, held respectively on March 14, 1855, and February 13, 1886. Attached to the By-Laws is a newspaper report of the first annual dinner of the club, held at the Russell House, Ottawa, on the same day as the second annual meeting. The Toronto Branch decided to present these memorabilia to the parent club and the c1ub's acceptance of these documents for their archives has already been very graciously acknowledged by the President, Brigadier Beament, in his last Bulletin, which will be found in other pages of the Review. Personally, I thought that was the end of the matter, but the President was insistent that I write for the Review an account of how these documents came into our hands, and as I regard his barest suggestions as an order, this sorry effort is the result, and if you find it boring, I ask only that you blame the President, not me, as I told him that there was really nothing interesting or romantic about the acquisition of the documents at all. My good friend, Percy Band, is the Chairman of the Museum Committee of the Royal Canadian Military Institute and I am Chairman of the Library Com- mittee. We have a tacit agreement that when one of us uncovers anything the other might be interested in in his field, we let the other know. So one day Percy came to me with these historical documents, and simply asked me if they were any use to me. I said they were, thanked him politely, and that's the story. It was all as simple as that. One of Percy's friends is Captain H. E. Denison tRoyal Navy, retiredj, and he is a rich source of museum material for Percy and the Institute. Captain Denison lives alone in the same rambling house in Toronto his father and grandfather lived in before him. He prides himself, and rightly, on his progenitors' heritage, as his house is a museum in itself, filled with ancient military books and documents, strange weapons and firearms and other articles of military lore invaluable to him and anyone, like Percy Band, who has an eye for museum pieces. It was when Percy was thumbing through some dust-covered volumes in Captain Denison's library that he came across the first By-Laws and Constitution of the R.M.C. Club. Knowing that I was an ex-cadet, it occurred to him that I might find a use for them. Now, Captain Denison is a son of - who else? - the celebrated No. 6 Major General Septimus Julius Augustus Denison who every year, until his death, was the outstanding ornament of the annual dinners of the Toronto Branch. On crutches for the last dinners he attended, he was, of course, the lirst to answer the traditional Roll-Call, laboriously and with obvious effort getting to his feet alone - he spurned assistance - finally standing to smart attention and bellowing out in as stentorian a voice as any recent graduate: NUMBER SIX! SEPTIMUS JULIUS AUGUSTUS DENISON!!! 1953 177 The historic documents were General Denisonis, of course, and they have lain unnoticed all these years at 14 Rusholme Drive, Toronto. To add anti-climax to anti-climax, the newspaper report of the first annual meeting is interesting, being liberally punctuated with such parenthetical obser- vations as CLaughterJ , HCLoud Applausejw and HCCheersJ',. It would appear that annual dinners then were not much different from annual dinners now, and that spirirus frumenti was abundantly provided at annual dinners, then as now. Sir Frederick Middleton, the head of the Canadian Militia, who had hurried away from His Excellency, the Governor-General, in order to be present a short timej, stated that the education provided at the Royal Military College fitted any ex-cadet for any position he could get. CLoud Laughterj. Our hero, Capt. S. J. A. Denison, Cas he then wash made a 'fvigorous and eloquent speech,', in which he said 'fit afforded him much pleasure to defend the College and its graduates when attacked by anonymous correspondents in the press. fApplauseJ. He declared the readiness of the graduates of the College to perform any military service required of them, either at home or abroad, in the interests of the Empire, and pointed out that of the 30 available graduates of the College, 23 had served in the North-West Rebellion. CCheersJ. Plus ga change, plus ga reste la meme chose. Editofs Note. The Royal Military College Club has now deposited these original docu- ments in the College Library for safekeeping and has presented the College Library with photostatic copies of them. The action of the Club in this respect is much appreciated and it is hoped that ex-cadets visiting the College will take the opportunity of inspecting these historic documents, the earliest relating to the Club, and so far is known, the only originals extant.

PRESIDENTS REPGRT The President, Lt.-Col. Nicol Kingsmill, E.D., reported on the activities of the Club for the past year, as follows: I have the honour of submitting the following report on behalf of the General Council and its Executive Committee for your consideration and I trust approval. The report will be brief as I sent out a somewhat lengthy Bulletin last January giving you all information about the College and Club activities as of that date. I would hrst and foremost thank the officers of the Club, the first Vice-President, Brigadier G. E. Beament, O.B.E., E.D., Q.C., the second Vice-President, Lt.-Col. R. R. Labatt, D.S.O., E.D., the members of the General Council and the Executive Committee for their co-operation and assistance during my tenure of office and also to thank the past Presidents, Captain E. W. Crowe, Brigadier Ian S. Johnston, C.B.E.. D.S.O., E.D., Q.C., Colonel S. H. Dobell, D.S.O., Brigadier D. G. Cunningham, C.B.E.. D.S.O., E.D., Q.C., and our honourary President, Major Douglas Fisken, M.C., for their advice and guidance. I would also take this opportunity of conveying my thanks, and I know yours, to the Commandant, Brigadier D. R. Agnew, C.B.E., Colonel W. R. Sawyer, O.B.E., E.D., the Staff Adjutant - Major P. T. Nation, C.D., and members of the Staff at the College who have helped us so much during the past year and permitted us to hold our Committee Meetings and Annual Meeting at the College. I would be remiss if I did not express on your behalf our appreciation to Lt.-Col. T. D. K. Rooney, Lt.-Col. J. F. McParland, D.S.O., Colonel deL. H. M. Panet, Major R. C. Oaks, E.D., and the other members of the Kingston branch for all the work. time and trouble that they have gone to in arranging for the Annual Dinner, our accommodation and entertainment It is encouraging to see so many present this year. 180 R. M. C. Review The General Council has met twice and its Executive Committee once since the last Annual Meeting held here on the 6th October, 1951. You will note that on the Agenda there are two amendments to the Club's Con- stitution. The first to give the General Council the power to increase in its discretion the amount of dues payable by Ex-Cadets. The second to change the date of the Annual Meeting of Branch Clubs. These amendments will be submitted to you for approval or otherwise later at this meeting, but it is my suggestion to the incoming Officers that as the Constitution as it now stands was prepared in 1934 it should be referred to the Honourary Solicitor with the view to having it revised, and if necessary a new Consti- tution as it now stands was prepared in 1934 it should be referred to the Honourary Solicitor with the view to having it revised, and if necessary a new Constitution pre- pared and submitted to the next Annual Meeting in 1953. This recommendation is made realizing that the R.M.C. is now a Tri-Service College and that many of the Articles contained in the original Constitution are not now applicable since the College was re-opened in 1948. Advisory Board The Club submitted their nominations for representatives on the Advisory Board of the Canadian Services Colleges in accordance with an Order-in-Council of May, 1951. Our recommendations submitted to the Minister of National Defence have not yet been formally approved. but I have been advised by the Minister, the Hon. Brooke Claxton, O.C., B.C.L., D.C.M., that we may rest assured that as soon as the Board in constituted, the nominees of the Club will be appointed as Members of the Board. R.M.C. Review The You have all received a copy of the last Edition of the Review fprovided you paid your duesl and 1 am quite sure that you realize that it is an excellent publication. Professor P. F. Fisher is the Editor of the Review as a whole, and our old friend Professor W. R. P. Bridger is still editing the Ex-Cadet Section. The cost of printing the Review has increased from year to year, and as a result you will note on your Agenda that there is an amendment to the Constitution to give your General Council the power to increase, if deemed necessary, the amount to be contributed for a copy of the Review. In this connection, I would urge all of you who have any influence to use your best efforts to obtain advertisements for the Review as this goes a long way towards covering the cost of publishing the magazine. In addition to the Review the Cadets on their own publish a semi-monthly paper. The Marker. If any of you have not seen this publication, you should contact Professor Fisher, and copies will be available as you leave Currie Hall, after this meeting. College Since reporting to you in the Bulletin last January, the first Graduating Class of the College since it was re-opened in 1948 graduated last Spring. A number of the graduates of the Class of 1952 are already serving in the Navy, Army or Air Force, a number in Korea. For your information, all the Cadets who joined the College since 1948, and who left the College prior to graduation and also those who graduated last Spring have been contacted by your Secretary and the majority have signfied that they would become members of the Club. Colle ge Course There have been a number of rumours and plans made during the past year with regard to the Course at the College due to the need of obtaining Officer personnel as quickly as possible. Your Officers and Executive Committee have been in close contact with the Department of National Defence in Ottawa, and as you know a new Canadian Services College has been recently opened at St-Jean, Quebec, outside Montreal, known as College Militaire Royal de St-Jean. I will not attempt to explain the various changes proposed during the past year and the opening of the new Canadian Services College, but Colonel Sawyer is here today and will give you all a full explanation of what has transpired. Inter-School Rifle Competition The Royal Military College Club Inter-School Riffe Competition was this year con- tested by 170 school teams and the winner was Westdale Secondary School of Hamilton, Ontario, with a total score of 989 out of a possible 1,000. The Club presented silver medals to the ten members of the Westdale Secondary School Team together with the Challenge Shield. ollege No. 65 1953 181 We have received a letter from the Deputy Minister of National Defence, expressing the appreciation and thanks of the Department for the C1ub's interest in promoting this type of training amongst schools and for its generosity in providing these awards. Financial Statement The Financial Statement of the Club's receipts and disbursements appears on the back of the Agenda and will be formally submitted to you by the Secretary-Treasurer for approval. Branch Clubs You will note that we show a deficit for the year of 35372.93 made up of primarily of the contribution which the Club made to the Review of S1400.00. The other items such as salary, postage and stationery, miscellaneous expenses and bank exchange were the same or lower than in 1950. I will not comment on this statement further, but will leave it to discussion when the financial report is formally presented. You will also note on the reverse side of the Agenda the paid up memberships of the various Branch Clubs, which you will note have gradually been increasing since 1949. Inasmuch as there are members at this meeting today from practically every Branch Club, prior to the adjournment I am going to suggest to the incoming President that he asks the representatives or members from Branch Clubs to stand so that we may have a general idea of how many of the Branch Clubs are represented today. You will note from looking over the membership of the Branch Clubs that we have one or two lame ducks who probably need a little assistance and support in organizing the Clubs and getting them back on to the pre-war basis, and I am sure that your incoming Executive would appreciate an opportunity of conferring with any representatives from Winnipeg and Calgary. I am very pleased to note that we have a representative, Brigadier B. M. Archibald, C.B.E., D.S.O., with us today representing the United Kingdom Branch. On the 8th day of February last, your President despatched a Cable reading as follows: The members of the Royal Military College Club of Canada and of its Branch Clubs throughout Canada and abroad express a deep sense of the loss sustained by The British Commonwealth through the death of our late Sovereign King George the Sixth, and desire to convey their deepest sympathy to all members of the Royal Family, and at the same time affirm their loyal and true allegiance to and affection for, Her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Elizabeth. Reply dated 25th of February, 1952 from Buckingham Palace: I am commanded by The Queen to express to you and to all those on whose behalf you wrote her sincere thanks for your kind message of sympathy in her great loss. Her Majesty greatly appreciates their thought of her and her family at this time.

He made the suggestion that the term of office for the Honourary President should be limited, and that consideration be given to the election of an Ex- Cadet from one of the branches in Western Canada as Honourary President. The chairman referred to the invaluable services rendered to the Club by the retiring President, Lt.-Col. Nicol Kingsmill, for so many years. Col. Kingsmill had served as Honourary Secretary-Treasurer, member of the Executive Committee, and had held the office of Second Vice-President, First Vice-President and President. He also acted as a member of the Special Committee appointed by the Club to negotiate with the Government in connection with the re-opening of the Royal Military College after the Second World War. 7 AMENDMENT TO CONSTITUTION The Chairman read to the meeting the Amendments approved by the General Council: tal WHEREAS it is deemed expedient to extend the time for the holding of Annual Meetings of Branch Clubs to the lst May in each year, NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Sec. 3 of Article X be amended to read as follows: Sec. 3-Each Branch Club shall hold a meeting for the election of officers and committee men on or before the lst May in each year.

CANADIAN SERVICES COLLEGES COURSE The Chairman asked Colonel Sawyer to say a few words on the new Military College at St-Jean and the effect of the new plan on the Royal Military College. Colonel Sawyer told the meeting that the Commandant regretted that he could not be present to speak to the R.M.C. Club on behalf of the College, as he had to meet Brigadier Rockingham. Colonel Sawyer stated that the new College did not come as a surprise to R.M.C. R.M.C. was kept informed right from the start and our advice and help was sought and freely given. The whole staff at the new college visited R.M.C. and went into every detail of the training. College Militaire Royal de St-Jean is most anxious to produce R. M. C. Review graduates that R.M.C. will be proud to accept. Many of the old R.M.C. traditions such as running the square are to be carried out at College Militaire Royal de St-Jean. The original plan was for a one year course starting with junior matriculation. Colonel Sawyer stated that, as Air Commodore Wray, a member of the Personnel Members Committee was present, he was better qualified to give the latest information. Air Commodore Wray had agreed to answer questions. Air Commodore Wray said that, while the decision has not been officially taken to have a three year course, the response has been so good that it is likely that the course will be three years and plans are now being worked out. The original plan was for a one year course at College Militaire Royal de St-Jean to bring cadets from junior to senior matriculation. This plan was brought in mainly to help Quebec and the Mari- times where it is difficult to obtain a senior matriculation in many areas. The new college would, however, accept candidates from the whole of Canada. Colonel Sawyer stated that graduates from C.M.R. would enter the third year at R.M.C. in the same manner as the graduates of Royal Roads do now. ln answer to a question in regard to allotment of numbers, he said that numbers were allotted now on the basis of standing on entrance to R.M.C. and Royal Roads and he presumed that after the cadets at C.M.R. had served a year they would be allotted numbers in the R.M.C.!Royal Roads block. An alternative would be to allot numbers for C.M.R. each year at the end of the R.M.C.fRoyal Roads block. Colonel Sawyer mentioned that there were eighty French-speaking and forty-five English-speaking cadets at C.M.R. He pointed out that the French-speaking cadets would receive their lectures mainly in French and the English-speaking cadets in English. lt was intended to make the French-speaking cadets bilingual by the time they graduated from C.M.R. after three years. Colonel Sawyer said that under the new plan the Navy and the Army would accept two years at R.M.C., Royal Roads and the universities and three years at C.M.R. as the minimum educational standard for those entering the executive branch of the R.C.N., the Armoured Corps, the Artillery and the Infantry. Those entering the engineering branch of the R.C.N., the sappers, signals or R.C.E.M.E. would take the four years at R.M.C. as before and be sent on to the uni- versity to receive a degree in one year. Cadets, who wish to enter the supply branches of the Navy and Army will complete the four year course and be sent to a university for one year to obtain the B. Com. degree. Colonel Sawyer stated that the C.G.S. was anxious to have some R.M.C. graduates in engineering enter the Armoured Corps. the Artillery and the Infantry. They would be sent to the university on a similar basis for the technical corps. Air Commodore Wray stated that the minimum educational standard for all officers entering the R.C.A.F. through the Services Colleges was four years irrespective of branch. Those taking technical or specialist courses would be sent to the university to obtain a degree where necessary. Colonel Sawyer stated that about twenty-five per cent of the cadets at R.M.C. had signified their intention of enrolling under the Regular Officers Training Plan in which they had all expenses paid and on graduation must accept a regular commission. Colonel Sawyer also stated that nearly seventy per cent of last year's graduating class took regular commissions. All the Army graduates are now in Korea. The question was asked: Why does R.M.C. not have a degree? Colonel Sawyer said that as far as the general course was concerned the work covered and the standard attained was more than that required for a pass arts B.A. and while R.M.C. could obtain authority to give a B.A. from the Province of Ontario such a step would not be advisable unless we had the support of the National Conference of Canadian Universities. This in turn depended on the Conference having a knowledge of and confidence in the work being carried out at R.M.C. In other words, our graduates must prove themselves academically before we could ask for degree granting powers. The engineering course was a different problem. If R.M.C. attemped to produce an engineer in the same time as that taken by the universiy, we would not be able to turn out a man trained as well professionally as the university because being a military college all our cadets must take an active part in sportsaand the general military life of the College. This takes up so much time that important phases of engineer training would have to be left out. With the extra year at a university we can then ensure that our engineering graduates not only attain a sound professional and military qualifica- tion but also obtain good training in English, French, and History subjects of importance to a well rounded military career. There is, furthermore, considerable advantage in being a graduate of engineering from both R.M.C. and a university in that our men are trained by two different groups of engineering graduates. The contacts formed at both R.M.C. and the universities are 185 most valuable later in both the civilian and military professional careers of our graduates. Colonel Sawyer stated that the new scheme did not detract in any way from the old plan but supplemented it. Any promises or commitments made by D.N.D. under the old plan would be lived up to in every way. 16 ANNOUNCEMENT RE FOOTBALL TEAM The Chairman advised the meeting that the Football Game between R.M.C. and Queen's scheduled for this afternoon had been cancelled but that arrangements had been made to bring the McGill Second Team from Montreal to substitute for the Queen's Team. He stated further that the Commandant had advised the General Council meeting last night that it had been necessary to pay the cost of transportation of the McGill Team from Montreal to Kingston, and had asked the Club to contribute towards paying these expenses. The General Council decided that the matter should be explained to the Annual Meeting and that Ex-Cadets attending the Annual Dinner make a volun- tary contribution of 81.00 when buying their dinner tickets. 17 ADJOURNMENT There being no further business the meeting then adjourned.

INF. BDE. In the Field, 1 Sep 52. Professor W. R. P. Bridger cfo The Royal Military College of Canada Kingston, Ontario Dear Professor Bridger, I have just finished reading Brigadier Bogert's copy of the latest Review and indeed found it most interesting. Twenty-one members of the last graduating class are now with us in Korea. I am enclosing a complete return of all Ex-Cadets who are serving in Korea at this date - none has been missed. It is with regret that I inform you that No. 2996, Lt. A. G. Herman, Pl Comd with 1 R22eR, was killed in action 19 Aug 52. He is the first EX-Cadet to lay down his life with the Brigade in Korea. Lts. Pitts, Black, Bell, Patterson and Bull, although members of the RCAC, have been posted to infantry battalions as indicated. This was necessary as we only have one armoured squadron in Korea and its complement of officers is complete. We are arranging to attach these young officers for six-week periods to the squadron, however, to give them experience in their corps. Meanwhile they all appear quite happy with the infantry. No. 1508 Brig. R. E. A. Morton, DSO, who is the Commander Canadian Military Mission, Far East, Tokyo. visited our HQ for two days earlier this month. No. 2116 Col. J. S. Ross. DSO, has been here recently presiding over courts martial here in Korea. I trust, Sir, that you are enjoying good health.

Club were, if possible, a greater success than ever, judging by the number of Ex-Cadets who attended. The weekend started, as usual now, on the Friday night COct. 3rdJ with various anniversary dinners, headed by The Old Brigade, which has now, to everyone's delight become an annual event. Some classes celebrate their year of entry to the College, some their year of graduation and some both so as to have one every three or four years as the case may be. These 'get-togethers' are a splendid thing not only for the Ex-cadets themselves but also for the serving cadets in that they demonstrate so clearly to the latter the intense loyalty to their College of those who have gone before them. At this time in the College history this is of course more important than ever. Nothing could add more to the pleasure and enthusiasm of this weekend than the presence of the senior and most revered Ex-Cadet, No. 13 Major-General A. B. Perry. C.M.G. The dinner was an unqualified success only marred by the loss of voice of the retiring and untiring President of the Club, No. 1860 Lt.-Col. Nicol Kingsmill. E.D., which we trust he has found long before this is published. The new President, No. 1828 Brig. G. E. Beament. O.B.E., E.D., very capably substituted for him, when required. The speech of Brig. J. M. Rockingham, C.B., C.B.E., D.S.O., E.D., was outstanding and was listened to with the closest attention by everyone. The eloquent little speech of No. 13 General Perry touched the hearts of every EX-Cadet and was received with tumultuous applause. There were assembled in the Cadet Dining Hall that night. the largest number l262l ever recorded at an Ex-Cadet Annual Dinner, which is a great credit to all concerned. The arrangements, in every way, were excellent. At the first ceremonial parade of the new academic year, the Cadets were reviewed and prizes were presented by Brig. Rockingham, who seemed to be very much pleased with all that he saw. One fact was quite obvious and that was that before very long there will have to be another enlargement of the Parade Ground. The football match on the Saturday afternoon was well attended and well won by the R.M.C. Team. 188 R. M. C. Review On the Sunday morning the usual Memorial Service was held at the Memorial Arch, conducted by No. I394 Major the Rev. S. W. Williams. The two companies of Ex-Cadets and the Old Brigade marched off the Square, preceded by the band of the Royal Canadian Regiment. playing the customary and stirring tunes. The salute was taken by General Perry. The weather which had held up well until this time, unfortunately broke just as the Service commenced. However, it would have taken much more than this to dampen the spirits of the Ex-Cadets after the cheering and applause they had received at the beginning of the march to the Memorial Arch from the serving Cadets. -W. R. P. B. x 1. . Q QS - N CLASS OF '27 HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL'S ADDRESS AT THE COLLEGE MILITAIRE ROYAL DE SAINT-JEAN, ON THURSDAY, 13TH NOVEMBER, 1952. Je n'ai pas a insister sur le r6le que le College Militaire Royal de Saint-Jean est appele et jouer dans notre defense nationale. Absorbes comme nous le sommes aujourd'hui par un besoin diarmes innombrables, aussi deroutantes dans leur com- plexite qu'accablante dans leur cout, nous n'osons oublier que meme au sein d'une armee moderne lielement humain demeure toujours le point central et dominant. L'art de la guerre ne sera jamais vraiment mecanise tant qu'il restera aux mains des hommes. Le facteur humain des services armes requiert toutefois plus quiune nour- riture saine, un bon logement ou des soins medicaux sulTisants, quelque essen- tielles que puissent etre toutes ces conditions. On doit aussi trouver dans Varmee cet accord du raisonnement et du sentiment, ce melange d'intelligence et de volonte, d'elevation d'esprit et de ferveur spirituelle qui siimposent dans toute entreprise malaisee et ardue. Nous en somes venus a ranger tout cela sous le titre de moral militaire. Chacun des hommes contribue une part personnelle plus ou moins forte it cet etat d'esprit, suivant ses dispositions et sa competence. Ciest aux officiers cependant qu'incombe la responsabilite premiere de maintenir le moral des troupes. La reside done votre tache non moins que votre privilege. Le role, le but du College Militaire Royal de Saint-jean sera de vous preparer a ce devoir noble mais peu facile. L'ouverture diun etablissement comme celui-ci au Canada francais arrive fort a propos. Dans notre pays la tradition militaire aura ete avant tout franeaise. La Nouvelle-France etait une colonie missionnaire. Les relations commerciales 1953 189 avec les Indiens, quelle que fut leur importance, ne devaient pas faire oublier l'oeuvre christianisante et civilisante de la France. Les premieres troupes au Cana- da ne se composaient point de conquerants sans merci venus pour exlpoiter et opprimer les indigenes. L'amitie des peuplades indiennes, en effet, avait deja ete acquise par des moyens pacifiques. A une epoque ou la mere patrie, la France, s'averait la plus grande puissance militaire d'Europe, de belles figures francaises telles que Frontenac, dflberville et Montcalm reussirent a obtenir le respect et l'admiration de tous, y compris du vieil ennemi, l'Anglais. Cette liere tradition ne s'est jamais eteinte. Plusieurs daentre nous se souvien- nent du regain qulelle a connu pendant la premiere guerre mondiale, alors que naissait cette unite celebre, le Royal Vingt-Deuxieme, regiment canadien dont nous avons tous raison d'etre Hers et qui fut caserne autrefois a l'endroit meme ou nous nous trouvons aujourdfhui. Vous le savez tous, ce regiment comprend maintenant trois bataillons dont l'un a vu le feu en Coree. Un autre est presente- ment engage sur ce front eloigne. .Vadmire fort la valeur, les succes recents du Vingt-Deuxieme, mais ce qui m'impressionne surtout c'est la qualite particuliere, la tenue de ce celebre regiment. Ses membres s'enorgueillissent avec raison de la tradition militaire inherente a l'histoire de la region qui lui a donne naissance. Ceux qui, a mon exemple, ont eu le privilege des relations plus ou moins etroites avec ce regiment affirmeront sans contredit qu'il symbolise non pas une innovation mais un renouveau, purement canadien, des traditions leguees par les grands colonisateurs militaires du passe. I must also remind you of one more matter doubtless familiar to most of you. You all no doubt admire the historic buildings of the College, placed as they are in this beautiful site on one of the great rivers of Canada. The site of this college is doubly appropriate. St-jean gained its significance as an outpost of Canada. Montreal, we are told, was founded by the gallant soldier, Maisonneuve. not as a result of calculated military strategy but in obedience to the visions of those who saw it as a defence of Christian civilization in a wild and pagan country. Maisonneuvefs first responsibility was to defend the hospitals and schools of a Christian civilization. This noble tradition was never quite effaced by the crowding commercial interests of later years. St-Jean itself comes into the picture a century later as a fur trading post not as a fort. It achieved particular prominence on the occasion of another great crisis in the history of our country. Destroyed at the close of the Seven Years' War fby order of Vaudreuilj, it was rebuilt during the American Revolutionary War when Carleton erected two redoubts a hundred feet square and two hundred yards apart connected by a strong palisade . This was the time when the Quebec Act had clearly expressed that the British colonial policy, far from being narrowly English, was broad enough to find room for the culture and for the religion of that sweet enemy France . It was then that Canadians, French in speech and tradition as they were, decided that the British Empire could offer them the kind of freedom which they sought. It was through St-Jean that American invaders made their entry into the country in the critical year of 1775. They crossed the scarcely defended frontier but found little welcome from the inhabitants. lt was by way of St-Jean that many of them retreated during the following year, leaving behind them a territory and a people content to remain British because they were free not to be English. And now today in this historic area, on this ancient site, men of our three services and of our two cultures come together for a common task. For this task you receive here not just training, but education. This education is intended to lit you once more to defend our Western Christian civilization whose roots, French and English, go far deeper than the bitter but passing struggles of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. They go back to the time when Western Europe was 190 R. M. C. Review building up its common life on the foundation of liberty and of law. It is the quality of that life which requires that you come here for education as much as for train- ing. The defence of our way of life is more than a technique. It is a calling. One cannot defend unfamiliar ground. You come here to know what you have to defend as well as how to defend it. Undoubtedly you learn here military science along with the new techniques, the new methods and devices that scientific advances have made possible, but you are also directed to the understanding of values which are permanent. They are not old because they are always renewing themselves, And in learning how to understand and to defend these values you receive here certain virtues which may be somewhat neglected elsewhere, the classic virtues of duty. discipline, and of good manners. May I say one thing more, I have to offer you a very special and personal piece of advice. You are here together - French and English-speaking Cana- dians, with every obligation and every opportunity to learn to know and understand each other's language, culture and character. Do not neglect this precious oppor- tunity, which comes to you just at the age when you are in a position to profit from it to the full. Your minds are open and your judgment is generous. Learn to speak and think and feel together. Do not forget what is your own, but develop the understanding and sympathy that come from speaking another's language, not only with the tongue, but with the mind and with the heart. You have a great and noble tradition behind you and a great worthy task before you. May you be inspired by both to go forward to your work with energy and enthusiasm. Remember always that you are to defend not only the soil of your country but the life of your civilization, and remember that your civilization has this great quality, it can be defended only be those who understand it with their minds and who adorn it by their conduct. - A FAMILY OF EX-CADETS - Left to right: No. 2265, Brig.

Mather 1955 C. H. Drury 1956 J. Martin 'S 1956 President's Report for 1952 I have the honour of presenting my report of the activities of the Branch during the past year. There were 201 paid up members during the year 1952 out of a total of 302 ex-cadets listed in the Montreal area. This total of 302 is made up of 269 ex-cadets living in Montreal proper, 26 out of town and 7 life members. As a point of interest, there are now 24 ex-cadets in the Montreal area with post-war numbers. The paid-up membership I regret to report shows a decrease of nine from the previous year but this I think may partly be due to the fact that we were unable to hold our annual beer and oyster party which, as you probably appreciate, is an occasion which serves to flush out a number of delinquent members. The annual dinner of the Branch was held on March 21st at the St. James's Club. Our guests were the Commandant, Staff Adjutant and Cadet W! C Williamson from the College and the Regional Vice-President of the Royal Roads Ex-Cadet Club. The presidents of the parent club and of the Toronto Branch were invited to attend but unfortunately were unable to be present. Official delegates of the Branch attended the annual meeting of the General Council of the parent club in Kingston in October last. The parent club annual dinner held at that time had the largest attendance in the history of the club. This was principally due to the marked increase in class reunions celebrating a variety of anniversaries and at which Mon- treal was well represented. Prior to the Kingston week-end your President and Secretary paid a visit to Saint-Jean where we were privileged to meet and talk to many members of the staff of the new College Militaire Royal. We were very much impressed by what we saw and heard on this informal occasion and as a result of our visit we were able to give a brief but favourable report to the meeting of the General Council in Kingston. Later in October through the courtesy of our fellow member Gibb Stewart, President of the Sir Arthur Currie Branch of the Canadian Legion, the members of the Branch were invited to hear Colonel M. L. Lahaie, D.S.O., the Commandant of C.M.R., speak on the organization of the new College. About 30 ex-cadets turned out for this meeting. On Novemebr 13th the new college was formally opened by His Excellency, the Gover- nor-General with some twenty-five to thirty ex-cadets in attendance as official guests of the Minister of National Defence. The occasion was a memorable one and I am confident that those of you who were present will agree that the youngest of the three tri-service Collegss has made an exceptionally good beginning. I should like to suggest that those of you who have not yet visited the College Militaire Royal do so as soon as possible. You will find such a visit well worthwhile and you are assured of a cordial and warm welcome from the Commandant and member of the staff who are justifiably proud of -the progress already made. I mentioned earlier in this report that your Executive had been unable to arrange for a beer and oyster party during 1952. Changes in the football schedule between the College and McGill and short notice received of the game played here with Loyola defeated our plans in this respect. 192 R. M. C. Review It now appears probable that some form of entertainment for the cadets may be arranged for next month. The college hockey and basketball teams are to be in Montreal on Friday and Saturday, the 13th and 14th of February, and it is expected that this will provide your incoming executive with an opportunity to lay on a party. There are one or two observations I should like to make on the financial statement which will be placed before you. You will note that the disbursement item of 8111.61 for postage. printing and stationery is somewhat higher than in recent years. This is explained by the cost of revising our address plates which now include members' college numbers and telephone numbers. a replenished stock of stationery and the increased cost of printing our notices. The loss on our annual dinner was 524.18 as opposed to 536.36 in 1951. This reduced loss on the dinner is in part due to the fact that two of our invited guests were unable to attend. Our cash in hand and in Bank has increased from 8292.62 to 8370.68 and I pass on to the incoming executive the suggestion made by your former President that consideration be given to investing some of this money. I regret to report the death in July last of No. 1274 Lt.-Co.l Frank Rolland. A wreath from the Branch was sent to his funeral which was attended by a number of ex-cadets. In closing I should like to pay a sincere tribute to the efficiency of our retiring Sec- retary Dan Wilkin. He has given a great deal of his time to the Branch and the many improvements in our records bear witness to his zeal and devotion to its interests. On your behalf and my own, I tender him grateful thanks for a job well done. Finally, may I express my appreciation of the help and support I have enjoyed from the Executive Committee and from all the members of the Branch during my term of office. R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA TORONTO BRANCH Officers of the Toronto Branch in 1952-53 were: President-S. Tupper Bigelow Vice-President-G. D. deS. Wotherspoon Secretary-Treasurer-F.

Edwards, Lyman H. Fraser, William M. Macintosh. The Presidentls Report 1952 - 1953 Your representatives on the General Council attended meetings of the Executive Committee of the parent club held in Kingston in April and October, 1952, at which matters of considerable interest were discussed, notably the position of the College Royal Militaire de Saint-Jean in the Canadian Services Colleges, which is unique. A full report of the delibera- tions of the Executive Committee has already been made to members by the secretary of the parent club. It was decided by your Executive Committee to revive the custom of holding a beer-and- oyster party in the fall, and this was done at 'the Royal Canadian Military Institute on November 1, 1952. The members of the first and second College hockey teams played Varsity teams in the morning and thirty-two cadets were entertained as guests at this party, which was a pleasant and wholly informal occasion. The annual New Year's buffet luncheon was held at the 48th Highlanders' Mess, University Avenue Armories, on January 3, 1953, when fifty-eight cadets on their way back to the College from all over Canada were entertained by the Toronto Branch. No. 779, Major A. D. Fisken, M.C., the Honorary President of the parent club was good enough to welcome the cadets on behalf of the Toronto Branch, and the only other item of business was the traditional roll-call. Both the above-mentioned events were suitably acknowledged by the cadets in the form of felicitous articles in The Marker, the College newspaper. The Toronto Branch was fortunate to come into possession of a copy of the first Constitution and By-Laws of the parent club, dated 1866, together with the minutes of the first and second annual meetings of the club. These were presented to the President of the parent club, Brigadier G. E. Beament, O.B.E., E.D., Q.C., to be disposed of as the Executive Committee may see fit. Brigadier Beament was gracious enough to acknowledge these historic documents in his last Bulletin to all ex-cadets. 1953 193 It is a source of some gratification to your Executive Committee that for the first time in many years, if not in history, the paid-up membership of the Toronto Branch exceeded that of the Montreal Branch, a target the Executive Committee set for itself at its first meeting in April, 1952. In 1952, the Toronto Branch had 211 paid-up members, exclusive of life members, compared to the Montreal Branch figure of 200. The 1951 figure for the Toronto Branch was 197, and 1950- 176, so the increase is actually far from impressive, when it is considered that many cadets in the Toronto area are graduating every year and that there are over 300 ex-cadets eligible for membership in the Toronto Branch. 1 The annual dinner, which followed the annual meeting, was held at the Albany Club, Toronto on Friday, March 20, 1953, and was attended by over one hundred members. The guest speaker was Colonel L. S. f Leary J Grant, E.D., and other honoured guests were Brigadier D. R. Agnew, C.B.E., Commandantg Colonel W. R. Sawyer, O.B.E., E.D., Director of Studiesg Major P. T. Nation, Staff Adjutant, and Cadet Wing Commander Tony Hampson, all of whom addressed the gathering. Major A. D. Fisken, the Honorary President of the parent club, spoke with his usual eloquence, and greetings were brought to us from their Branches by representatives of the Montreal, Ottawa, Kingston, Hamilton and London Branches. I should like to take this opportunity of thanking most heartily the members of your Executive Committee for the dependable and efficient manner in which all performed their sometimes oppressive duties. In particular, I should like to pay tribute to Mr. F. Campbell Macdonald, whose work has been tireless and continually oppressive. He has laboured long and earnestly in the vineyard. S. TUPPER BIGELOW President R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA KINGSTON BRANCH The Officers and Executive Committee for the year 1952 were as follows:- Honourary Presidents - Major-General C. F. Constantine - Major-General W. H. P. Elkins President - Lt.-Col. T. D. K. Rooney lst Vice-President - Major R. C. Oaks 2nd Vice-President - Major A. B. Smith Secretary - Major R. M.

McParland Major H. Davis Major R. C. Oaks Lt.-Col. T. D. K. Rooney The Annual Meeting and Dinner was held at the Officers' Mess H.Q., Eastern Ontario Command, Kingston, March 12th, 1952. Thirty-eight members of the Branch attended. Guests for the dinner were Brigadier A. Knight, A.O.C., Lt.-Col. Slack and Cadet Wing 2 ifc Wallace gave a very interesting talk on College activities. The paid-up membership of the Branch is fifty-two. It is hoped in the new year that still further Ex-Cadets will join the Kingston Club. West Point played R.M.C. in hockey at Kingston this year. It was a particularly good game. Prior to the game. a Cocktail Party was arranged at the P.W.O.R. Mess. This proved to be very popular and was well attended, not only by the Kingston Branch Members, but also by visiting Ex-Cadets. A Beer and Oyster Party was held at R.M.C. In the late summer a Dinner was held at the Cataraqui Golf and Country Club. 194 R. M. C. Review This Branch successfully carried out the arrangements for the Annual Meeting and Dinner. and arranged for accommodation for out-of-town Ex-Cadets. In this regard our dealings with Lt.-Col. Jones, O.C., R.C.E.M.E., were most happy - every effort was made by Lt.-Col. Jones and his Staff to make the visiting Ex-Cadets' week-end a happy one. Lt.- Col. Nicol Kingsmill. President of the Parent Club accompanied by Lt.-Col. McParland and myself. visited Lt.-Col. Jones at R.C.E.M.E., and personally thanked him for his efforts on behalf of the R.M.C. Club. The wives of the Kingston Branch Club arranged a Dinner for the visiting wives of Ex- Cadets at the Kingston Yacht Club. the same evening as the Annual Dinner. I understand that this proved to be a very successful affair. The Kingston Branch Club are donating a cup for Annual Competition in the St. Lawrence Conference.

CLUB OF CANADA OTTAWA BRANCH Honorary President - General H. D. G. Crerar President - Lt.-Col. D. C. MacDonald Vice-President -- Supt. J. F. Thrasher Secretary-Treasurer - C. E. Winter The following will be the Branch representatives on the General Council: Wm. F. Hadley, Lt.-Col. D. C. MacDonald, Supt. J. F. Thrasher, Major S. A. Gillies. President's Report There are, at present, about two hundred ex-cadets in the Ottawa area, which is an increase of about thirty-five over the number at this time last year. The annual dues of 116 members only were received for 1952, so that approximately 4092 of our membership did not pay dues for last year. We hope a distinct improvement in this regard will be shown for the year 1953. It is particularly gratifying to our Branch that a member of it in the person of Brigadier G. E. Beament. O.B.E., E.D., Q.C. is presently serving as President of the Royal Military College Club of Canada. That is a very important office and I am sure we all feel perfectly contident that he will occupy it with distinction. During 1952, the Branch held two cocktail parties, one in March and the other in November. Well over one hundred attended each of these functions and, judging by the favorable comments received, all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Owing to prior engagements, I was unable to attend any of the Executive Committee or General Council meetings held in 1952. I wish to thank the Executive and members of the Branch for their assistance and support during the past year. D .C. MACDONALD, President R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA HALIFAX BRANCH The Club held two quarterly business meetings through the year and two social func- tions. One of the social functions took the form of a cocktail party in August aboard H.M.C.S. Haida', when the Cadets attending the Naval Course were our guests. The second social function was on the occasion of the visit of the R.M.C. football team to Halifax, and consisted of a buffet dinner in the H.Q. Mess at R. A. Park which was also well attended. Our present paid-up membership stands at seventeen. There are fifty-one ex-cadets living in the N.S. P.E.I. area. It is anticipated that the final membership will rise to about twenty-five in 1953. At our Annual Meeting held on 24 February, 1953, the following officers were elected: President - No. 2112, Lt.-Col. T. M. Powers Vice-President - No. 1843, Col. H. E. T. Doucet Secretary-Treasurer - No. 2701, Capt W. J. Powers Member at Large: To be appointed as occasion for representation arises. Please address any requests for information or any points of general interest to: W. J. Powers, Seciy-Treas., Marlborough Woods, Halifax, N.S. R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA VANCOUVER BRANCH The Presidentis Report 1952-53 Our last Annual Meeting was held on 7 March, later than usual, due to the fact that we were in mourning for the late King. On 25 April a small contingent from this branch, with their wives, attended the Graduating Exercises at Royal Roads and 1 believe enjoyed 'them- selves thoroughly. Colonel C. B. Ware. D.S.O., the new Commandant, told me recently that he is looking forward to a large number of visitors from our branch at their graduation 196 R.M.C. Review ceremonies this year. Colonel Ware is an old and close personal friend of many members of this Branch and l suggest it is now an excellent time for us to work toward the establish- ment of a much closer relationship between this Branch and Royal Roads than has existed heretofore. On 22 May. we held a luncheon in honour of No. 779 Major A. D. Fisken, M.C., Hon. President of the parent club. He gave us an excellent report on the activities of the clubs across Canada. On 14 June the club held a cocktail party for the R.M.C. cadets attending the R.C.S.M.E.. Chilliwack. B.C. We had a good attendance of both cadets and ex-cadets at this party and l suggest we should plan upon some such function as an annual function of the Branch. It is the only opportunity most of us have of meeting those cadets who will spend their whole four years at either of the other two service colleges in Eastern Canada. On 31 October, we held a luncheon for Colonel A. J. Kerry, O.B.E. Colonel Kerry has been residing in England the last five or six years. This year, however, he did a tour of Canada to gather data for the preparation of the official history of the Corps of Royal Canadian Engineers which he will prepare. He was able to tell the Branch something of the problems involved in this task and to request the assistance of its members in sending data to him. On 15 November, an informal gathering was held in the Officers' Mess of the Seaforths Regiment to welcome Brigadier H. A. Sparling, Vice-Chief of the Canadian General Staff on the occasion of his first official visit out here. We attempted to arrange a Luncheon Meeting in honour of Lieut.-General Sir Charles Loewen in January but his time here was short and coincided with the Christmas - New Year Season and it was therefore impossible to arrange a meeting with him. He asked me to convey to our members his sincere regrets at being unable to accept our invitation. I have to report with regret the passing of two of our members this year. No. 200 Major Hazen-Ritchie No. 613 Major D. N. CBoneyD Matheson The number of ex-cadets on our nominal roll this year is seventy-two. Unfortunately. only half this number are paid-up members. I trust that our new executive will accept the challenge of eliminating this unsatisfactory situation. I wish to thank all the members of your 1952 executive for their assistance and support and particularly Lieut.-Commander R. M. Dundas for doing so well in his job as Secretary and Treasurer. NO. 2263 LT.-COL. R. E. WILKINS, O.B.E. R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA VANCOUVER ISLAND BRANCH By kind permission of Lt.-Col. A. Perron, R.C.A., the Annual Dinner and Meeting was held at the R.C.A.

Brown, P.P.C.L.I., from this Branch and welcome Col. C. B. Ware and Capt. P. R. Tremblay to the Branch 1953 197 R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA UNITED KINGDOM BRANCH The Annual General Meeting of the Royal Military College Club of Canada tUnited Kingdom Branchl was held at the House of Commons, Westminster, through the kindness of No. 2585, Mr. E.

Strubbe Following are the points raised by the Hon. Secretary-Treasurer in his report:- Caj There is now a total of sixty-seven members of the Branch Club. tbj The meeting was informed with regret of the death of No. 152 Lt.-Col. R. J. Mac- donald, D.S.O., who died on the 28th September, 1951. fcj The meeting was informed of the luncheon held at the Criterion Restaurant, Picca- dilly, on 19th November, 1952 at which twenty-six ex-cadets were present. The meet- ing expressed its satisfaction at this luncheon and suggested that in future the luncheons should be held there. fdb An extract from a letter from No. 632, Lt.-Col. E. F. Budden, D.S.O. was read. This concerned the condition of Saxe Browne, late R.C.A., College No. 668, who is in the London Clinic, Devonshire Place, W.I. with heart trouble. No. 673, Lt.-Col. T. C. Greenwood, who was at the meeting, was able to state that Saxe Browne was not sufficiently well to have any visitors at the moment, but when his condition improyes he will let ex-cadets of his class or about his time know. The Financial Statement was reviewed and approved. A letter from Colonel Kingsmill, President of the Parent Club, dated 29th May, 1952, was read by the President. This concerned the question of granting commissions to cadets in the United Kingdom and Colonial Forces, which was raised at our last Annual General Meeting. The new President or Secretary will no doubt be getting in touch with Colonel Kingsmill on this subject. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year:- Honourary President - No. 1246 Lt.-Gen. Sir Charles C. F. Loewen, C.B., C.B.E., D.S.O. Honourary Vice-President 4- No. 1858 Lt.-Col. A. K. Jordan, D.S.O., E.D. Honourary Secretary-Treasurer - No. 2183 Mr. J. E. Pepall The question of obtaining seats to view the Coronation procession was raised. The incoming Honourary Secretary, Mr. Pepall, volunteered to obtain some information on this from Canada House and to notify the ex-cadets. It was suggested by No. 974, Mr. G. A. Strubbe, that meetings should be held during the spring and summer, rather than during the autumn and winter, when older members of the Ex-Cadet Club found it rather difficult travelling to London. It was suggested that the Honourary Secretary-Treasurer should get in touch with the Secretary-Treasurer of the Parent Club and ask whether the Annual General Meeting should not take place during the summer. After the meeting adjourned, ex-cadets remained for a cocktail party. I shall be handing over the books in the next few days to Ted Pepall, whose address is 11 Bruton Street, London, W. 1. In many ways I am sorry I shall not be continuing as Honourary Secretary-Treasurer, but as I do not know when I shall be returning to Canada I asked that I should be relieved at this time. I have just been informed that No. 163, Lt.-Col. E. V. O. Hewett, C.M.G., D.S.O.. O.B.E., passed away on 22nd February, 1953 in Bournemouth. Lt.-Col. H. E. C. Price Ex-Hon.

He won it in a shooting bet from Lt.-Gen. Michael tlron Mikel O'Daniel, commander of a U.S. corps with which the 25th Canadian Infantry Brigade group has fought ever since it landed in Korea. Rocky had quite a gallery to witness the pay-off, won for him by the 2nd Regiment. Royal Canadian Horse Artillery. The occasion was a visit to the Canadian sector by Gen. Matthew B. Ridg- way, supreme commander of the Allied forces. With Ridgway were Gen. James A. Van Fleet, commander of the Eighth United States Army in Korea, O'Daniel and Maj.-Gen. Jim Cassels, commander of the lst Commonwealth Division. At Rocky's observation post, overlooking the Chinese positions, the brigadier casually mentioned that the brigade artillery could engage any target on its front with all its guns within 45 seconds. O'Daniel said it was impossible and that he had money to back up the opinion. Rocky, saying 'You're on - one dollar', invited Ridgway to select a target. Lt.-Col. Geoffrey Brooks of Shilo, Man., alerted the regiment that a target was coming up. 1953 No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. 205 Ridgway selected a ridge-top 9,000 yards distant, Chinese positions which had been under discussion minutes before. Brooks relayed the target. lt was plotted at regimental headquarters by Capt. John Crowe of Guelph, Ont., the adjutant, and the fire orders given. First shells were away within 42 seconds. They fell right on the target - bang slam on. Said Ridgway, as an amazed O'Daniel paid up: 'That's a might line shooting artillery regiment you've got there, colonel., Secret of the R.C.H.A.'s speed - coupled withs traditional accuracy -- its communications. Rockingham and Brooks have so teamed up to improve them that their personal signallers caught the bug. Like their officers, the signallers, too, always travel the front together? 2541, Major I. S.
