JOHN GRAHAM MILLAR, B.Sc., M.Sc. (New Zealand), B.A., M. A. (Cantab.), 1922-1950 John Graham Millar joined the Calgary Branch of the University as Assistant Professor of Mathematics and of Physics in the fall of 1948. A New Zealander by birth, he left a brilliant scholastic record at the Mount Albert Grammar School (Auckland), at the University of New Zealand, and at Cambridge University in England. Those who knew him here will remember his delightful sense of the absurd, his catholic taste in reading, and the speed and ease with which he fitted himself into the Canadian scene. In the two years he was here he acquired a remarkable fund of knowledge about Canada and Canadians. His death has deprived this institution and this community of a highly valued member. —W. F. Allen, University of Alberta He showed outstanding ability, particularly in mathematics and science, but with unusual all-round capabilities in other subjects. He entered with enthusiasm into the general life of the school—he played a useful game of Rugby football, and could run a very fair 440 yards. —W. Caradus, Mount Albert Grammar School I like to remember people in their lighter moments. One day, feeling, I suppose, a little whimsical, I related that some years before a friend of Einstein ' s had written a book concerning him, and had stated that one day he asked his hero to help him with a bet he had made. Can you , he said, take off your waistcoat without first removing your coat? -—a feat which Einstein at once performed. I expressed to Millar a hope that one day I might meet Einstein to ask him how it was done. A few days offer that Millar came to my room, wearing a waistcoat of unusual size, and showed me how to do it. It will not now be necessary for you to meet Einstein . — H. G. Forder, University of New Zealand He was a first-class mathematician and a very likeable man, and his tragic death at the threshold of his career comes as a shock to his friends in England. A. R. Curtis, St. John ' s College, Cambridge 5
