CHAPLAINS ! Very Reverend Msgr. M. T. NICHOL, V.G. Pastor, Sts. Peter and Paul REV. FATHER J. REITER Assistant Vancouver College has no chaplains it can really call its own, but two priests of Sts. Peter and Paul Parish, Monsignor Nichol, the pastor, and Father Reiter, his assistant, have ably filled this position. Monsignor, a native of Saint John, New Brunswick, attended St. Joseph’s University there and was ordained at Saint John in 1925. In 1937, five years before coming here, he was named Papal Chamberlain, and in 1948, Domestic Prelate. Later in the same year he was selected as Vicar General of the Arch- diocese of Vancouver. Father Reiter, who hails from Tramping Lake, Sask., attended Laval University, Quebec, and was ordained here in Vancouver. Father came to Sts. Peter and Paul in 1952 to succeed Father Keilty. Both take a great interest in the school. Every Thursday preceding a first Friday finds them hearing con- fessions of the entire student body. They are always active for our spirit- ual welfare and in this we are ex- tremely grateful. 8
