ENGINEERING SOCIETY GENTLEMEN, THE SCHOOL And so another year draws to a close. . . . With it, for many of us, the four best years of our lives. How quickly those four years have flown. But how plentiful are the memories that will never let them be forgotten. From the freshman tour, and what a tour it was, to the final exams, yet to be tried and passed, the days have been full. How could we forget that first blast of the Cannon that sent us scrambling for shelter, back in the fall of 1954! the L.G.M.B. and the melo- dious refrains we have so often heard drifting out across the campus from the superbly disci- plined instruments in the hands of the famed artists. The Cannon Ball, the At-Home, and finally the long awaited Grad Ball have been social events likely never to be equalled in our futures. Skule Nite with all its madness and glitter has has repeatedly proven itself to be the best show on campus. Complete sellouts for every perfor- mance, a just reward for the many long hours of work spent on each polished detail. Then too there were the Chariot Races, the Goal Post Ceremonies, the Missile Launchings and the Auctions that might better be named Marts in keeping with the present trends. In all the activities whether it be collecting money for the United Appeal; carrying the name of Skule on to the field of sport, or debating with the Nurses, the one ever-present factor has been the spirit and determination by which the men of Skule have come to be known. This spirit is not easily defined, nor is it even easily pointed out. It is simply evident on some occa- sions. It seems, some mysterious way, to be best generated within those dusky green doors of the i; RALPH JONES Mechanical WALLY KOSTIW Eng. Business ART DOULOFF Eng.

A WORD FROM THE DEAN TO THE GRADUATING CLASS, 1958. “Sc ite et strenue”. The motto of the “School” is, of course, a good one, and one that you have had to practise in order to bring yourselves to the eve of graduation. It is one that you could well keep before you throughout your professional lives, for you will have to continue “with knowledge and vigour”, remembering always that though graduation was a very im- portant milestone in your lives, still, it was just a milestone, and that the pursuit of knowledge is the pursuit of a lifetime. You have learned much in the class-room and the laboratory — not just facts, but the meaning underlying the facts; and an ability to tackle new and strange prob- lems. You have learned much, too, from your fellow students in this and other faculties, on the playing fields, and in social activities. You have learned, I am sure, that “School spirit” is very real and that, rightly directed, it can be a benevolent and very powerful force; and you will learn as you join the army of graduates that it continues into your post-university years. It is trite yet timely to remark that the reputation of your university and your faculty rests to a notable extent in your hands. We are content to have it so, and wish you well as you leave us. r. r. McLaughlin, Dean, Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering 1 1

Pres. 5T8 Pres. 5T9 Pres. 6T0 Pres. 6T1 EXECUTIVE 1957-58 Little Red Skule House. Is it a product of the seemingly endless committee meetings, the fe- verish activity to meet deadlines in the back office, or even the commission meetings of the Brute Force Committee? 5 It is hard to say. But it is real. Perhaps none know it better than those who have become members of the Joe Club. They are the backbone of the life at Skule. Without them The Faculty of Applied Science and Engin- eering would merely be another part of the great homogeneous mass on this campus. With them Engineers have become known as leaders in every endeavour. Only after a year on the Executive can one fully appreciate the almost complete dependence placed on the help freely offered by these hard working individuals for the success of Society functions. Neither can one fully appreciate the satisfaction of seeing an activity successfully run in every respect, until he has had an active part in its organization. The past year on the Executive has been a most rewarding one for every member. There have been many long hours of seemingly thank- less labour go into each activity, but these have been over-shadowed by the sense of accomplish- ment and the satisfaction as the engineers have proven themselves for yet another year to be the campus leaders. Yes, for some the time to bid adieu to this University has come. We will be gone, but with us in the coming years we will carry the cher- ished memories of the days spent down on the south end of the campus.
