ven fA e+t Qold Class “D” ☆ ☆ ☆ Our Motto: Through these portals, pass, or fail, clever mortals. (C) 3£OLLOWING Class D around for one day is taking your life into your own hands. They are the busiest, happiest crowd in the school, what industry! what enthusiasm! what a racket! We learn everything here—in Phys. Ed. how to break our necks, in First Aid how to fix them. We completely ruined the music teacher ' s ear for music. We think a tuning fork is an instrument for eating tuna fish, and a do note is a five dollar bill. Miss S. has come to the conclusion that our expressive art lesson was pretty poor merely because we have nothing to express. If the Art Room is now referred to as The Blue Room it ' s because one of our art lessons got a little out of hand. The poor librarian despairs of our inability to see straight and hence our inability to get books back on the right set of shelves, let alone the right section. In Science, there we sit like birds in the wilderness while Mr. S. gives us the bird. To us, the Canada Goose is a duck with citizenship, and the Snowy Owl, a fighter squadron. There ' s never a dull moment though there ' s never anyone with home¬ work done, there ' s never anyone on time for a class—and for the early class there ' s never anyone. So we end our all too brief tour in Class D. As our ship leaves harbor and the strains of Aloha become more and more strained, we say farewell to a really special class. Years may tumble swiftly by, Distance, may us space. Still we will remember Each friendly, happy face. School days, are the happy ones That will long remembered be The happiest and the dearest Are those spent with Old Class D. JEAN PEACHEY Page Twenty-nine

Qold University of Alberta O meet the needs of the heavy post-war influx of students the University of Alberta has once more set out to continue its pro¬ gram of expansion. This year has seen the inauguration o f a four-year Physical Education course, the erection of a modern three-story home for the nurses, the addition of a side wing to the Medical Building and the construction of a dozen Quonset huts on the campus. Varsity life went off with a bang the first week as two thousand freshmen, mostly vet¬ erans brought the total enrollment up to over 4000. In September the Fresh baby bonnet made a hit, and the last accelerated medical course graduated. Football then stole the scene and ended with the Golden Bears win¬ ning the western inter-collegiate title during the gigantic home-coming week-end. The Saturday night house dances, the dramatic plays, the musical programs, the improved issues of the Gateway and the numerous clubs ' activities made 1946 an interesting year des¬ pite the examinations. January was the month of pledging for the Greeks. As February rolled along, the Alarm, the new daily mimeographed publica¬ tion, found it difficult to post the students on all the activities. The Golden Bear Basket¬ ball team won the western title after defeat¬ ing Manitoba and Saskatchewan on this cam¬ pus. The election of a queen by the engineers, the Arts and Science Mardi Gras with the crowning of its King, the Freshman Fiesta, the Senior Prom, the CURMA dance and many other activities left most of the students burn¬ ing the candle at both ends.
