CENTENNIAL BALL One hundred years of Engineering. What better reason for a party could there be. None! Hence the Centennial Ball, a Ball to end all Balls, came to be. The word was spread far and wide to members of this faculty, both past and present, that Hart House was to be the scene of the celebration and what a celebration it was. The House resounded with the sound of five musical bands and the LGMB and the Skul spirit flowed throughout the House. Many Alumni, Professors, and members of the University at large were on hand to celebrate with the students. Among the special guests were Dr. J. Evans, the President of the University and of course Dean Ham. Throughout the House were decorations, some were pictures of our Skule and its traditions, others were the Clubs entries in the Intercourse Competi- tion. Easily the most outstanding decoration was the huge model of the old red “Skulehouse” which covered one whole end of the Great Hall. It provided the background for the highlight of the evening, which was of course the performance by the LGMB and the presentation of the Awards. It was here our “Skule” Cannon was presented to Dean Ham, who fired it for the last time, as thanks for his many contributions to this faculty. It was here also that our new “Skule” Cannon almost didn’t fire for the first time. All in all the Centennial Ball was a very fitting celebration commemorating one hundred years of Engineering. The dancing, singing and drinking continued on into the night. And when the “Skulemen” left they carried with them the pride of being an Engineer. Also a few of them carried the Mechanical Chariot with them. Oh well, Engineers will be Engineers.
