S I '21 sf' C' -03 001' 0F AGRlC'0x' fwfwf ' .A-r BLYTHE EAGLES' B Agriculture. Dean of With the second highest enrolment of Agriculture in any Canadian Uni- versity, the Faculty of Agriculture continued to play a prominent part in campus affairs. Headed by the only Dean to get his varsity education at UBC, Dean Blythe Eagles is in his first year as head of the faculty. 178 After the retirement of Dean Clements last spring, the Board of Governors ap- pointed him Dean. He served as chairman of the President's Food Com- mittee, which was respon- sible for rearranging prices in the campus food outlets. Another notable professor on the Agriculture staff last year was H. M. King, former head of the Pacific National Exhibition. For many years Pro- fessor King has been head of the Depart- ment of Animal Hus- banclry. Many members of the faculty carried on research work in the many Aggie labs scat- t e r e d around the campus. Notable among these was Professor I. C. Berry, who served as assistant to Professor King. Most of the Agriculture students Worked harder than the rest of the campus. Many of the future farmers took as many as 24 units, 9 above the usual amount for Arts and Engineer- ing classes. Although these extra units were not needed for graduation, they equip students for future research jobs. Highlight of the Aggie year was the Farmers' Prolic. The big barn dance was held in the armouries again this year, and all profits were turned over to the War Memorial Gym Campaign. The Faculty of Agriculture was started in 1923. VERNON C. BRINK, B.S.A., M.S., Ph.D. Professor, Department of Agonomy

g s 4 CUNY or PHAR' may .W WQODS, esu LONGWORTH Dean of Pharmacy' Iuly lst. 1949, marked the opening of Ulriffs Faculty of Pharmacy. Pre- vious to that, commencing in 1946, Pharmacy had been a Department in the Faculty of Arts and Science. Through the considerable efforts and assistance of the BC. Pharma- ceutical Association, who took an active interest in the pharmacy training 180 B.S.P., NLS F? , plan from the outset, r 21 groundwork began on a ts, 322 pharmacy program as early as 1958. It soon became evident that the real need for quali- fied pharmacists and the details of adequate training could best be worked out at the University. Professor E. L. Woods arrived from the University of Sas- katchewan, relin- quishing his position as Dean of the Col- le ge of Pharmacy there, to take up the cause of pharmacy at F UBC. g f- .f.....w 'WU f. H. Z' Now he has attain- ed the status of Dean once more. From the first the story has been one of rapid progress. The B.C. Pharma- ceutical Association has rendered valu- able service both financially and through personal efforts. Mr. G. T. Cunningham's gift of 525,000 was typical of the generosity bestowed, as is the modern, completely- equipped dispensary installed in the Pharmacy's new and permanent home in the Biological Sciences Building. Enrollment in the first year of the Department was 58, with a staff mem- bership of 3. Now, as a Faculty, en- rollment has reached 168, served by 6 staf-f members. Many young men and women have gone into the provincial towns to set up retail businesses or to relieve the sorely-taxed established firms. ROBERT H. COX, B.S.P., M.Sc. Professor, Faculty of Pharmacy
