Forty-nine Fifty-seven Sixty-five / Scenes in or near the city of Brandon Brandon College Today BRANDON COLLEGE The first attempt of the Baptist denomination to enter the field of education in western Canada took the form of an academy at Rapid City, hut liLLIe progress was made and the lLlldertaking was forced 10 close. Lnter, when the position of Brandon marked it as the coming centre of wcstern l\laniloba, a new start was made and the private academy operated by Dr. S. J. ~tcJ(ee was taken over in 1899. In 1901 the present main building was buill, Ctark Hall being added a few years later, and the science buitding in 1922, by the efforts of the citizens of Brandon. Brandon College was originally devoted almost exclusively to matriculation work, but with the passing of time the arts courses assumed greatel' significance; academy work was dropped gradually until in 1932 it was discontinued altogether, and the college becomc a strictly ads institution. In the fall of 1932, the first year course in arts was reptaced by the regutar Grade Twelve course of the Manitoba Department of Education, which plan is still being followed very successfully. Originally affitiated with Manitoba University, affiliation for Brandon College with ~kMaster University was sought and obtained in 1910, so Ihat McMaster degrees were conferred to graduates of Brandon College. The first class to graduate with the ~fcMaster curriculum was the class of H113. The music department of Brandon College has always held an important place in its activities; another important arm, the department of theology, was reorganized in 193~1, and is now well all its way to becoming an integral part of the organization. McMaster University Campus, Hamilton, Ontario Bl'andon College has been affiliated with 1\1cl\1aster. the educational enterJ)rise or the Baptists or Ontario ancl Quebec. since 1910. The l\'1cl\1aster campus was movell from Torollto in 1930 to a new site at Hamilton, parl of which Is seen above. The Science Building GOVERNMENT OF BRANDON COLLEGE Brandon College began for the express purpose of training the young Baptists of the west, and the controlling voice in its management has always been that of the Baptist Union of western Canada. This contml is held indirectly, thmugh a board of directors appoiltled by the Baptist Union. The board consists of twenty-one members appointed for threeyear terms, seven retiring each year, along with the president of the College, the general secretary of the Baptist Union, and several honorary and advisory members. For obvious reaSons an executive of this board carries out much of its work, and is more closely connected with the acLual life of the college. A significant fact is that the chairman of the board, Captain J. C. Bowen of Edmonton; the chairman of the executive, Rev. H. C. Olsen of \Vinnipeg, and the vice-chairman of the executive, Dr. .T. R. C. Evans, our College p"esident, are all graduates of Brandon College. Next to the board of directors in authority comes the senate, composed of the president as chairman, eight representatives from the board of directors, six others from the faculty, and six from the alumni association. To this body all matters regarding the curriculum are referred, and it determines the educational policy of the College in line with the general policy as outlined by the board of directors.

At the firsL meeting, the seeretary and head proctor were appointed, along "witll the reading 1'00111 convenor (Aley \Vinler), and the Fii'C Chief (Gwen MUlll). The council and the Dean al'e in chHl'ge of a vesper program to which the students contribute ollce a week, and 10 which outside speakers are frequently invited. Several irnporlanL changes have been made during the year 1935-36. The senior advisor meLhod has been inLrodueed, by which each fl'csheltc has a senior 10 whulll she Illay go for aelvief'. Exlensions have been made in the rules regardiJlg the visiting hours and the evening privileges. Study rooms with night lights have been provided for eaeh floor, and it is expected Ihat there will be an exLension of Lhe reading faciliLies of the Clark Hall library. The social side of the council's work consisted in the appointment of " eonvenor for the Carol Tea (Doris Hemmons), at which time the Clark Hall girLs are hostesses to the n.on-residenL girls. The couneil also made thc general plans and appointed convenors for three "At Homes'" when the girts played hostesses to the rcsidence boys. In addition to arranging for various Clark Hall parties, the council pLanned an informal reeeption nl which the junior nurses of the General Hospital were guests; and further offered hospiLality to the Home Eeonomics and UniLed Colleges girls' baskeLball teams during their stay in Clark Hall. The counciL is deeply appreeiative of the fine spirit of co-operaLion that has been cxhibited on the part of the Clark Hall girls this year. BRANDON COLLEGE RESIDENCE COUNCIL ~IB..H. S.

The Fdcult~ of Arts SCEl'E: A class room in the year 2000 CHARACTERS: Teacher Bright History Student Teacher: Now, Willie, I want to sec how well you are acquainted with the illustrious figures of the past century. Whose work has been of such n permanclll quality that it still endUl'es'~ Willie: Why, Dr. John R. C. Evans', to be sure. Born in Nanaimo, B.C.. he went eastward to Alberta. for most of his !)ubliC schooling, then on to Manitoba for his high school work. I-Ie graduated from Brandon College with his B.A. in 1913, and remained tbere until 1920. being fol' foul' yeal's Academy Instructor In Mathematics and Scienc~ and fOl' thl'ee more yeanl Academy Principal. From 1915-1920 he was also Residence Mastcl'. During the next few years he took speclai work in geology at Chicago University, at which InstituLioil he was a f.. .' ellowship Instructor in 1922-2.3. and from which in 1924 he received his Ph.D. in geology. Returning to Brandon College in 192:3 he became Professor of Geology as well as reassuming the position of Hesident Master. In 1925' he also became Dean of Arts, which office he Quitted in 1928 to become President of Brandon College. The !)!ace of Brandon College in fhe west remains a filling memorial to his industry and enterprise. JOH:\' H. c. I~\".\XS. I'h.l). President Professor of Geology Teacher: Excellent. \\"ho gave the greatest contribution to I)OSterity in the realm of philosophy? Willie: Cyril F'. Hic!aards, of COurse. He was barn in Dunedin, 'ew Zealand, and went to public school there and in California. He took his B.Sc. degree from Linfield College, Ore.e:on. in 191 , where during the n~xt three years he was all the facull). In 1924 he received ~lis B.D. degree from Colgate Theological Seminary in Hochester. New York; but finally Canadianized himself by earning his !\I.A. from the Unl\'crslty of Manitoba in 1925. Meanwhile. he had come to Brandon College, in 1924, where. when the last authentic documents were issued in 1936. he was still acting in his OWI1 wise and kindly way as Proft:ssor of Philosophy; he had also in that year been promoted from his position a:.i Reglstral'. which he filled so ably for a long time, to that of Dean. It is thought that at thls time he began experiments that led to Ilis great invention of a moral theory to compel ladies and gentlemen t~ mingle socially at College fUllctions. CYHII. Ii'. H.ICIl.\HDS. H. n.. H.Se.. :\1..\. Dean of AIlS PI'oreSsel' or Philosophy Teacher: Let me see now~\\~hat country has made the greatest contribution in the realm o[ economics? Why, Scotland, with hel' reputation for t'hl'il't Hnd frugality. This national spirit bloomed forth in James H. Aitchison, who came from Peebleshire, Scotland. He acquired all his early education, from public school to B.A. and B.Ed., in Saskatoon, and put it to l)J'actical lise in teaching at A Iberta College, Edmonton. and Prince Albert Collegiate. A B.Sc. degree gained In 1935 in LO::J.don, England. qualifies him for his position as Professor of Political Economy at Brandon College, \\~ere he inculcated Into tilt! students his solid belief in his native economy. and where his wife, Orpheus-like. with bel' music drew the Collegetemporarily at least~from th~ grips 0: the famous Deep Depression.

Willie: WEll, there was A. Hayward Foster, Pl'ofessor or Classics and Religion In Brandon College. He was born in Pictou, Kova Scotia. won honors at Pictou Academy on graduation. and received his t.A. and :\'I.A. from Dalhousl(' Unive:sity in Halifax, In the same year he won his :\I.A .. he also had conferred UIJOn him the degree of B.D. frolll Pine Hill Theological Seminary, his course through bGth institutions being marked by honors. From his graduation until his coming to Brandop- College In 1930, the rears werp spent in ministerial woo k in nle :\1aritlmes '\nd in Manitoba. in pr:nclpalship 0: s(veral Manitoba schools. af!d In editorial work for religious publications. He finally retired to work out an automatic method of C"dlling the 1'011 fOI' Arts IV Bible dasses. .\. H.\YW.\BIJ I7'OSTKR, M.A., B.D. 1'l'(HE'f!;OI' of Clal;slC8 and Rell).don Teacher: But, Willie, on what are you basing yOlll' statements:' Are there any reliable records of this particular period? Willie: Oh, ayel Hoot man, did ye no ken 'twas a Scotsman wha kept them? He'd n:> be I1krly to add anything free. wud he? R. MacGregor F"raEer's the lad. He was born 111 Ontario. took his B.A. and B.D. from Mcl\'laster, and then went to Germany for two rears of post-graduate work In Basel and l\Iarburg. From then until 1932, he was at various times minister of churches in Peterborough, in Ansonia, Counecticut, and of Fail'Ylew Church in Vancouver. as well as being special lectur€l' at the United Church College there. In 1932 he took his M.A. In history [rom Yale Unl· vusity. and the following year Dr, Evans persuaded this experienced and able man to take the Professol'shlp of l-ristOI'Y in BI'alHlol\ College, where lle worked tow81'd his Ph.D. degree as well as meeting his many classes. H. :'>lacGRBGOR I"H.\SI~B. :\1.\., ProfEssor of I-IlstOI'y B.D. Teacher: But were none of those who have gained such eminence native Manitobans? Willie: Yes, indeed. Emma Gruenke was born at Plum Coulee, Manitoba. F'oJlowing her early education obtained in Morrh; and Gretna, she came to Brandon College, [rom which she graII(I~, J nSU'uet;"I' in B,A. Gel man Tc.achel': That is well nnswel"ed, Can you give any information about some or those men who made such a profound impression UPOll the spiritual life of eu: C:lllllt~·y in the early twenti th century? Willie: Yes. There Wa!; Dr. C. B. Lumsden. He was born in Canso, N.B.. received Ilis B.A. rrom Acadia in 1921, his B.D. from Newton Theological Institute in 1923, and his Ph.D. from Yale in 1932. During his student days and arter, he was in turn pas to I' or churches at Hampton, Dal'tmouth, and New Haven, He became PI'ofesEor of Theology in Brandon College in 1935, where, drawing fl'OIll a varied backgroulld of €.xtellsive reading anj experience in the above pastorates and in the army, he sent forth fronl Brandon College a long line of those ministe:'S of whom Western Canada is justly proud. C. B. LU:\ISDE:'>I, RD., Ph.D. l'rc;fessor or Theology '1'eachel': '''ere there no feminine members in the roll 01' hO:101' [01' this period? 'Villie: Yes, thCl"e certainly were, and a verr charming member indeed Marjorie McKenzie seelllS to have been, accol'ding t:> Mac F','aser's glowing account. She was a Brll.ndonite, a graduate of Brandon Collegiate and Brandon College, She gained her B.E. degree fl'om the Columbia College of Expression in Chicago, and her M.Sc. in speech from North· western University at Evanston, Illinois. F'rom 1927 to 1930 she was Instructor in Dramatic Art in her Alma l\'Iater, rEsigned to do I:ost-gl'aduate work; and l'etul'l1ed in 193!'i as Instruct(ll' of Public Speaking in the Theological Department and Dean or Clark Hall, where she upheld the Cla:-k Hall motto, "Recte et Suaviter." with natural grace and ease. :\1.\HJORIE B. ~lcKE~ZIE, B.A., B.l~" :\I.Sc, Dean c.f Women Teacher: And do you know of another prominent official at Brandon abom this lime? Willie: Yes-!(eith i\'1cKinnon, who was apj;ointed registrar in 1935. Coming from \Veyburn, Saskatchewan, where he had already gained pl'aclical business experience, he attended Bt'andon College, specializing in Political Economy. In student affairs. he served on athletic executives, on an Arts Banquet committee. and as manager of a major dramatic production, climaxing all in his final year by a markedly efficient and successful administration of the office of Senior Stick. Following his graduation he was appointed. as mentioned before. to the position of regi8trar, in which he distinguished himself by his rising daily in chapel to Dr. E,'uns' oft-repeated statement, "The reglstrar has an announcement to make." ="OR:'.I.-\N KEITH n'lcl(INNON. B..\. Hcg'l$trilt· Teacher: What other great figure is there in the realm of ]'eligious developmEnt during this era? Willie: I won't forget ~"'. W. Pattison in a hurry. you bet, Did you ever look at the pictures of the girls' basketball team in the Brandon College Sickle for 1936? Reason enough there [01' remembering Rev. 1.•. XV. Pattison, aside from his own splendid work as ProFessor of Homiletics and Pastoral Theology in the College. as weli as minister of the F'irst Baptist Church, Brandon. His birthplace was Albany. New York. He attended the Universities of Rochester and Acadia, receiving from the latter his degrees of B.A, and 'M.A. Hp held ministerial charges in \Vestminster Chapel, LotHian, England: at Summerland. B.C.; at North field, Massachusetts, and at Calgary, before coming to Brandon in 1934. Men such as he are responsible for the outstanding !)osition Brandon College holds today. REV. 1". \\'. I'rofe~sor 1~.-\1"1'ISON. :\1.,.1.. or Homiletic:,; l'Ind Theology l'!l!;tonll Teacher: It seems to me that I recall teading about a gallant. young man who lost his life in a very tragic way about 1940-a very bl'illiant geologist, was he not? Can you telJ me auy particulars about this case? Willie: all, yes-Stewart Perdue, you mean. It was tragic, indeed. This man ha.d an ill-staned life; he was born at Souris, a town famed for its dan~el'ous blondes. and '.,'ellt to Collegiate lhel'e. He atlPucled Brandon College, "here he \Va" an GUlstan(ling hoc-lic)' and football playel', grauuatIng with his B.A. degree in 1928, and taking his M.A. in HI~O. From 19~5 on, when he was not tJ uctor' ill Politlc:l1 IO:conom~' Teacher: Very good, \"illie. But do you remember if there were any outstanding artists 01' literary lights during this era? 'ViIlie: The outstanding artist of the era was also a literary figure of no little fame. Ella A. 'Vhitmore, who was Professor of English at Brandon College from 1925 on, won distinction in painting of all kinds, and taught almost every branch of this study outside of bel' regular lecture hours and her extensive club work in the city. She was bam in Cannan, Manitoba; received 11er B.A. and M.A. in 1922 and 1923 respectively from the Universities of Manitoba and 'Chicago. She held \'arious principalships around the province before Brandon College was fortunate enough to obtain her services. In 1936 she was well on her way to obtaining her Ph.D. degree. ELLA .\. \\'l-IIT:\IORE, :\1.-\. Professor of j!jng-lish Teacher: And were there any other noted persons in the field of literary achievement? Willie: Certainly. Last, but not least. we l.1ave Annie E. Wright. She is one person who cannot be left oul of the picture of these times. Mrs. Wright came originally [rom Derbyshire. England; she received her early education at Calgary; attended Normal School at Regina; taught for a while; took a business course at Brandon College, remained as Ac:ademy Instructor, and finally graduated wilh her B.A. in 1926. Following that she took M.A. work in English at Chicago. Clark Hall was fortunate to have her as Dean [rom 1928 to 1934, when she had to l'esign the position, due to ill-health: however, she was able lo keep on with her wark as Instructor in English. The last mention of bel' in the annals of history shows her dividing hel' time between English classes, club work, reading, and baking exquisite apple pies for a very lucky namesake of mine, i\N:'ol"l£ I~.

In the annual dramatic production of the ColJege, "Twelfth :>:ight," Class '37 figured prominenUy. Doris Fraser and Bill Clcment gave outstanding performances in two of the Icading !"oles, while t1l1'ce other mcmbers assumed minOt' parts, So much fol' '~n's participation in general College affairs, As a class, '37 carried on many ~ll(.:cessful functions, The YC::H' COIllmeneed welJ with a fowl supper at Forrest. Then came the lit. Weeks of practicc under the encrgctic supervision of Earl l\lills were climaxed by the production of the operetta-a gtillering and mysterious story of the 1l100n-"The Moon Maiden." The class p3rty for the first te!'lll, taking the form of a pioneer spree, was an unprecedented success, as was the longto-be-remembered leap year function aftcr Christmas, All-without exception-enjoyed themse\\'es to the full.

Another honor accorded LIS is the clection by acclamalion of one of Ollr members to the position of Tnanager of pUblications, In alhlelics we are well lip with the leaders in having outstanding represcntatives in basketball, tennis, and track activities, Then, too, the various clubs-historical, literary, and language-are dotted with our alJle members. Our Freshie lit. al Ihe heginning of Ihe year was a great success and one has only to glance at the list of ::lctors and technicians of "Twelfth Night" to realize that it tuo owed a I.1rge measure of its success to the efforts of Class '38. Our class lit. was strikingly original bolh in plot and execution, and wc arc told by some that it was entertaining as well. Arts II is socially inclincd as well. For proof of this wc need only remind ourselves of the class functions which have been held this year, III which the whole class took great pleasure. In truth, we call look back with pride upon our ::lchievemenls Ihis year, and forward with hope to the further activities of next year. The pust augurs well for the fulure.

Siudent association and class comOlU' radeship bolh flourish largely because everyone is expected to jo'n in the fun and make our Lit. progr'ams the outstanding successes which we are happy to say have been maintained this ycar. The open Lit. again performed its valuable function of acquainting lIew students with the opportunities we offer for encouragement of talent. As class succeeds class, it becomes increasingly difficult to improve high slandards set befol'ehHnd and present something original, but this has been achieved this year by the development of Ihe tendency 10 use musical ~cltings. Thc graduating class received an ovalion for its clever burlesquc opera, "Samson and Delilah," while Arts III well merited the applause it received for the picllll'csque costuming and .Iilting melodies uf ils operetta, "The i\loun i\laiden," Clnss '38, the only exception in n series of musical productions, produced a bloodcurdli ng (!) melodrama, "The End of Frankenstein"; this production WBS adjudged worthy of receiving the inter-class Lit. shield. The considerable array of lalent in Gradc 1\velve was displayed in a "Hit Parade." Together with the drama festival, these achievements comprised an. outstanding yem" of dramatk activity. Much of this success was undoubtcdly due to the businesslike work hehind the scenes of the literary executive. Judging forms for the interclass Lit. competition were re\'ised and 1'1Heed in the hands or Mrs. \Vhitmore, ~Iiss McKenzie, and Mr. Ailehison, all of whom consented to act as judges. Member's of the executive, with the addition of Miss McKenzie and .lack Trowell, formed the committee responsible for the production of the annuHI play, of which an aecoun.t is given elsewhere, and did their best to contribute towards its success. '/'hirtY-lleven Executive of Debating Society THE DEBATING SOCIETY T HE debating suciety, which is responsible for all interclass and intercollegiate debates, achieved a marked degree of success this year, despite a notable lack of interest on tbe part of the majority of the students. Two major functions were held in the first term. The first was a debate between Grade XII and Arts II on the subject of the maintenance of our present imllligratjon laws, in which Grude XIJ, with Bill Potoro],u Cllle! Margaret Mann upholding the negative, carried the decision against Tan Hind and Helen DeMarsb. The evening's entertainment was completed h~' a mock trial arising out of the initiation parade. Tbe second function took tbe form of a College-Collegiate debate, with tbe College taking the alfinnative of "Resolved that municipal gov('rnment under a council and managcr is bettcr than under a council alone." The debate was held in the ColJcgiatc auditorium in November, and Agnes ~Iills and Don Knipfel successfully upheld the ,·eputation of the Blue and Gold. The most important dehating functiull of the yeaI' took place in February when the subject "Resolved that education in the various PI'Oyinces should be placed under the control of the Dominion government" ,nts thrashed oul in the two-way debate wilh Unjled Colleges. Our College was reprcsented in \Vinntjpeg by George Cowan and Bill Potoroka, and at home by Bob Beamish and Bernice Albright, substituting al the lasl moment for Frank Salllis and Del \Vhite who camc down with flu a few days before \!le deba te. An open forum beld early in April, on the subject of Canada's allegiance to Great llritain, was the last of the year's functions. Thus we condude our year; aliI' 'only regret .is that such an important activity is not supported by" greater percentage of students. "'e sincerely hope that this (lne defect will be remedied in future years. 'j'!lirl y-ciy/l t S.C,M. Executive Back How: .:\1. G.·\HL)I~:'\'. DR. C. J3. LU.:\1S01~N. D. F'I'Qnt How: 1. IiI~O. G.

Following this !'col'gani?iltiOIl, the Quill appeared in its new large size up 10 Ihe publication of Ihe eighl-page Christmas number, with its literar)' supplement. Hetul'ning to its smallcr size for thc second term, the Quill was fealunxl by the secon.d baskctball issue, the co-ed issue, and the mcn's issue edited bv GOI'don Forbes. Ten- issues have appeared in eaeh term of Ihe College year; the mechanin.1 work of getting out the paper has been shared by se,·e..," of the stafr, and those mcmbers have becomc cxpcricnced in proof-rcading and (especially the feminine ones) in making-up. Staff meetings have bee II held weckly, at which ideas were discussed and assignmcnts givcn out. In addition to enjoying working together, members of the staff '''1\"e enjoyed each other's company socially at the Quill party held heforc Christmas, and at thc co-cd luncheon; as wc go to press, anothcr function is being ptanned.

BIGELOw, THE FRENCH CLUB T HE French club motto seems 10 be individuality. This year they planned a tOllr of invasion into as many realms of French life as Ihe College year and monthly meetings would allow. Science was Ihe first call. \Vilh Polly Pattison as guide, a fascinating aflernoon was spe"t in the laboratory of Madame Curie, Ihat amazing woman who rcvolutionized science and medicine with her discovery of radium, . Fresh from the laurels of ~Iadame Curie, we slepped into the web of intrigue and daring thal only such a great politician as Poincare could produce. \Vith Gwen ~lunt, wc watched his dazzling career, and for the momenl held all France in sway as he had. But we returned home. for Christmas and the French club dinner held at the home of Alixe Ferguson. Here rustling gowns matched lhe gaily deco.... ted table and lhe carols that followed. In February. Doris Fraser took LIS again. to France, and to the fine art of painting, where we learned about the life and work of the French impressionistic painter Claude Monet. The last meeting found us backstage with Alixe Ferguson, who turned the spOllight on Sarah Bernhardt, One of the grealest aclresses who ('vcr played in France. The success of the club was due to a great extent to the able pl!llming of the executive, composed of Dr. TUrljbull, honorary president; Agnes Bigelow, president; Anne ~leKillop, vice-president; Edith Reid, social convenor; Polly Pattison, program convenor; and ~Iuriel Bell, secretary.

The program of monthly meetings, to be held on the secon.d Thursday of every month, was arranged, with a view toward the furlher development of youthful debaters. In the debate of November 12, "Resolved that co-education in colleges is desirahle," Len \Venham and Bob l\lloffat merit mention for their capahility in supporting the afl'irmative, as do Em'l Mills and Tom Morison for their impassioned effort to prove the waste of time and money involved in sen'ding girls 10 college. Xo less enthusiasm was shown in the February debate, in which \Vall Dinsdale and Polly Pattison pul forth a noble struggle to show the undesirability of the present jury system, in opposition to Doug. Rupp and Evelyn Bowen.. One of the most interesting meetir/gs was the parliamentary debate held in March, at which, after a terrific exchange of opiniOl's in a torrid atmosphere, the decision was reached that Canada should not supporl Britain in the event of a Europealll WfIT. As the end of the year approaches, we sincerely believe that we have been able in our meetings to impl'Ove the level of public speaking in the College. F01·ty-three F'REDEH.ICK J. WBSTCOTT, :\1..-\.

PROr.EDl'RE: First an illustrated lecture was taken on "The Dragon Fly," dcli\"Crcd by D,". Bird of the Dominion Entomological LaboralOl'y. To this was added a discussion of "Chemistry in Industry." with special reference to textiles and dyeing, the experiment being conducted in this case by Mary 1\lurray and Bernicc Carrothers. A touch of electricity was added when Tony BUl"lleski gave a practical demonstralion of the oscilloscope in visllalizing electrical impulses; in this part of the experiment we had the privilege of hcaring n special broadcast f!"Om ~Ir. Frank ~Ieadows of VE'IAC. Next we ventured in the realm of geology with "Canada's ~Iinel"l" Resources" and HVulcanism." given by .John Chalmcrs and Nick Koropatnick respectively. \Ve also had papers by Mac Gillies on "Racial Intermarriage," Lloyd Bell on "Chemical Engineering," and Bob ;\loffat on "Electric Power in Manitoba." Mention should also be made of a hilarious toboggan party held during the first tenn. CO~CLllS10,,: A profitable and enjllyable time was had by all.

Forty-nin.e = = THE ATHLETIC BOARD DL:RI:'\G the past ycar, Brandon College athlctic activitics '"wc comC for the first timc undcr control of thc newly-constitutcd Athlctic Board. TI,e Board, which is composcd of represcntati\'es of studcnts, faculty, Collcgc administmtion, and alumni, has final authority in all mailer' pcrtaining to athlctics, and reccivcs its funds directly, instcad of as formcrly, by allolment from the ~lain Executivc. This lypc of control introduces definite advanlages into the adminisratioll of alhletics. Bcsidcs the broadening influcnce and thc yaluahle experience resulting from the combining of the fonner groups, it provides for H continuity of policy tram year to year and a program of systematic additions to our athletic facilities- Although handicappcd hy thc lack of a li\'c intercst on Ihc pari of Ihc majority of thc studcnts, thc Buard has alrcady surpasscd thc achicvcmcnts of former ycars. L'ndcr the capablo chairmanship of Mr. \\'cstcoll, it has overcomc many of thc difl"icultics associated with the cstablishmenl of prcccdcnts and thc selling up of machincry necessary fo,' the smooth functioning of a pl'ogram invol\'ing the addition of another tcnnis COUl'l and the improvcment of the rink ns imlllcdiate ob~ieclives. ATHLETIC ACTIVITY 1935-36 acti,·ity during the year ATHLETIC that no great diversity of 1935-:~(; was somewll.lt unusual ill undertakings was attempted; yet, those which were carried oul were eminently successful. ~o s\yilllll1ing meet was held this year, and the hockey talent of the College was 1I0t organized into a leam, due to a combination of scarcity of competitioll, extremely eold weather for Illllch of the win,ler, and the press of other activities. However, it is doubtful if any of the programs of former years were as sliccessful as the field day, tennis tournament, and Icngue basketball of lhe year which has just drawn to u close. The field day held in the middle of Odober was carried oul perfeclly under the capable diredion of ~Iessrs. Weslcoll alld Robertson, Einar Egilsson. and Miss Polly Pattison. Senior arts overcame the juniors in lhe total score hy a close margin. The tennis tournament, also held during October, drew a record nlllllbel' of entries in all events, and though some of the final matches could not be played off due to the early arrival of snow, the tournament all til(' whole was certainly a success. ~Iiss Alice GI"ant of Vancouver won tlu' !<:l(lics' singles championship, with Harold Schachter, of the city, winning the men's crown. [n the only other evenl completed, Keith ~IcKinnon and 7\liss Agnes Bigelow WOIl the mixed doubles event. Brandon College produced its best basketball team of the last tell YCfII's during the past' year, \~ith the climax of the tcant's success coming when it caillured all of its intercollegiate contests with the United Colleges and Agricultural College teams, of "'innipeg. Dr. J. R. C. Evans and ~lr. F ..J. \"eslcoll handled the team, and deserve g,'eat credit for their fine work. SPORTS DAY FOLLO\VI:\G last year's l)l"ecedent in placing the stress upon class unity rather than individual competition between a mere handful of stu- dents, the athletic board's 6rst activity in 1935-3G was the staging of a College field day on the campus. Senior Arts won the annual College field day inter-class competition when ils members oul-scored Junior Arts by 87 to ILl, in a meet that was thoroughly interesting throughout. During the forenoon the inter-class <.:ompetitions took place, while in the afternoon individ~laI events were hdd. Junior Arts won the football game by a 1 to a score, with Bill Reed scoring the goal which defeated the seniors. In the softball, Arts I and Arts III won their way to the final by eliminating the sophomores tiod seniors. The final game was witnessed by a large Ilumber of students, with Arts III winning IO-!). Individual honors were won by Einar Egilsson in the men's division, "nd by ~tiss Polly Pattison in the ladies' section. The former piled up u total of 11 points, which was five bettcr than the number obtained by Hert Fraser, the funner-up. Miss Pattison won the title by scoring one point more than Edith Adolph. The athletic events of the day were terminated by a weiner roast on the campus, with coffee and the ramous Brandon College doughnuts. After all had eaten their fill, a sing-song ended the activities of another highly successful field day. Fifty-two TENNIS r-rHE anllual fa11 tennis tOLlrnament proved a distinct sue-cess in every sense of the word. The construction of an additional court mad~ H possible 10 nlll off the events with more speed. Excellent en'tl'ies werc received in all events, and fine galleries witnessed the majority of the matches. The featlll·e evcnt of an.y tennis tournament-the men's singles-was wun by smooth-stroking Harold Schachter, second year student Harold ~col'cd notable victories over Bert Fraser and Joe Robertson to captun' his litle. ,"ancollver's Alice Granl defeated ~liss Pal Heywood in the finals of the ladies' singles 10 win the other individllal event in. a c1osely-colltesled three-set match. The most exciting match of the tournament camc in the semi-final round of the ladies' sjnglcs when ~liss Heywood met Miss Agnes Bigelow. The formcr won, after a hectic struggle, by winning the third set six games to five, after each had won a set. l\Iiss Bigelow teamed with l\.cilh McKil1110n to win the mixed doubles championship. The winners defeated Miss Doris Hemmons and Harold Schachter in the final in straight sets. The men's doubles event was not completed becausc of adverse weather eonditions. Bert Fraser and Bill Clement, Einar Egilssoll and Harold Schachter, aucl Keith McKinnon and Gon!. "'right were still undefeated when play was discontinued. F'ilty-three THE WOMEN'S BASKETBALL ladies' team played three games with \Vinnipeg tcalns, winning lwo and losing the olher. They wOn the first game from i\I.A.C:. in the Brandon Y.~I.C.A. by a 10-9 scorc, but lost the second local game to United Colleges, 10-6. In Winnipeg the girls defeated Aggies hy 13-10. ]n league competition the ladies' team fared favorably, winn.illg and losing an equal number of games. ]'hey did very well in games against the Brandon Collegiate team, but were un"ble tn defeat the City girls all through the season. Polly Pattison, Agnes Bigelow, and Anne Waychok fnrllled the 1'01'wal'd line, with Donna Keppel and Pat Heywood as guards. Fern Robertson nnd Jean Yarcoe were the alternates. Dr. Evans coached the leam throughout Ihe season. Filty-IQIO' l,eft to Rlg'ln: D. C .......... :'\'O:\'. T. pg ...... TO:'\'. S. )lc...... Jo:I I..L, .1. HOI:$l':'HTSON, W. REED, H. OSTR.'\:\'DEH. J.

MEN'S JUNIOR BASKETBALL THIS yea .., fa .. the fi .. sl lime, two men's basketball teams we..e ente..ed in the local league: one in thc senior section, as usual, and also onc in the junior division. The first jUll'ior team, for several years al least in llrandon r.ollege, was necessarily madc up of many players with but little league expe .. ience. It was coached by ~l ... F . .I. Westcolt. l i\ll'. \Vestcoll's jUllior team won only fOlll' gamcs ~t11 season, but they provided thei .. league opponents, the Royals and Ihe Collegia Ie, wilh an intcresting cngagemcnt at every meeting. They lost two overtime games during the schedule, and the second of these setbacks eliminaled Ihem from an)' hopes of a play-ofl' position, In the final game of the season, lh(~ Hoyals managed to sco..e five points in Ihe overtime 10 defeat Ihe Blue and Gold and eliminate them. Joe Robc.. tson, Bill Frayne, and Har ..y Oslrander formed the starting forwa ..d line, with Don Cannon and Bill Reed Ihe ..egular guards. .Iohn Sigfusson, Te ....y Penton, Sandy ~lcNeill, and Ha ..old Schachle.. were Ihe alternates. . Robertson, Canllon, Ostnmdcl', and Frayne played with the seniol' quintette in thc games with 'Vinnipeg tcams, ME'S SENIOR BASKETBALL BERT Fraser, .Jack Keppel, Einar Egilsson, .Jim McGregor, Gordon Kirk and Frank Ball composed the best senim' team that has ,'epresentecl Brandon College for many years, The boys starled slowly, but as the seasun progressed they improved steadily until they were a consistenl, smooth-powered, accurate-shooting basketball machine, In Ihe local threecornered league lhey played many thrilling games against the brilliant Royals, and also swept a three-game series with \Vinnipeg teams. The firsl of Ihe intercollegiate games was in the 10c,,1 Y.~I.C.A. against Cnited Colleges, The team performed excellently to defeat its "pponents by a ~3-16 score, One week later they scored two more triumphs in Winnipeg: the first, with the Agricullural College, ou,' boys won handily by 2;;-12, while the second, against Cnited Colleges in the Winnipeg Y.~I.C.A" they won 22-21. In the local league, the College team won a play-off .berth with tlw Hoyals. After a brilliant comeback in lhe second game to even the series, Ihey were unforlunately defealed in the thinl and deciding game fur the city championship. Ska.ting THE COLLEGE RI K DeE to the energetic work of ~tr. Perdue, the skating rink on the cHmplis was ready for use a week before the end of i\'ovcmbel"-collsiderabty earlier than in previous years. After being officially opened by lhe skating pal'ty,it was in nlmost con;-;lanl lise, pUI'Licularly by those in residence, until the Christmas holidays. An inter-form hockey league was o,-ganizcd and many good games played. Aftc,' Christmas, the exceptionally eotd weather handicapped the skatel's and put an effective stop to the lise of the rink for the greater pari of six weeks. After the weather had moderated somewhat, the rink was again in LIse for the remaining part of the winter. Thanks arc certainly due to those who kept the ice in such excellent condition during the skaling Sf'USOIl. SKATING MEET SEVERAL studenls represented tbe (ollege in the Kinsmen Karnival skating meet, held on February 1.1, but the majority of them found Ihe Cnllegiate btade-artists too fasl. Einar Egitssull and Ctiff. Howes were the only College hoys to score points, as they placed second in the two-tap aud four-lap ,'aces respectively. Lloyd Bell won the four-tap race the first lime, but WHS not so fortunate when it had to be skated o\'er agJ.in o\villg to a slight confusion ahout the numher of taps.

"TWELFTH NIGHT" STI~IU.ATED by the success of lasl year's musical pmductiun, Brandon "'- College students further" demonstrated their vcrsalilily by presenting this year the Shakespearean comedy, "Twelfth :\ighl." The production was staged in the City Hall, December 12 and 13, before large and apprcciali,"c audiences. To Miss r-,1. B. ~lcI\.cnzic, the directress, is due great "redit for the success of the performance. Laurels are merited by Peggy Kahlo, who as \'iola performed al a consistently high level throughout the presenlation. Lawrence Skeoch, an aiulllnus of Class '32, ga\'e an outstallding characterization of Malvolio. 'The comedy element was abundi:lTltly supplied by Bert F"ascI" as Sir Toby Belch and Bill Clement as Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Others taking prominent parts were Doris Fraser', ~lary (~C:1rden, Don Cannon, Doug. Downing, Hamid Schachter, Charlie Hullan, and Evan Littler. The colorful costullles of a by-gone day were greatly enhanced b: Ihe alll'active scenery and excellent lighting. The stage crew certainly deserve special mention for their efficient arrangement and shifting of ~renery between acts. In the intermission between scenes an orchslra dir- ected by F. Gerald Racine rendered selections. Concerning the financial end, wc would congrntulate thc hard-working busincss managcr, Jack I'rowcll, and the ticket salcs IlHlnager, Boh Beamish, whose vigorous and untiring cfrorts filled the salesmen with ('n t husiaslll. "'rwclfth r\ight" was an amhitiolls undcrtaking; may all crcdit he given 10 lhose who "put it oycr." ELECTIONS 'THE week of February 3 witnessed the hubbub and exeitement of that grand old College institution-elections for next year's ~Iain Executive. After a ralher quiet nomination meeting, the campaign began in earnest, and posters and signs advising the reader to vote for this or that ..andidate sprang up like magie. On Thursday the eandidates and their supporters addressed the eleetorate, and the following aflemoon the polling took place. After the Jast postel' had been grabbed for a souvenir, and the voting was over, the students gathered in the chapel and the result!; were flashed on the screen in a truly theatrical manner, to the accompaniment of triumphant shouts, loud sighs, and thunderous applause. One of the upsets of the campaign was the eleelion of two candidates by proxy -proof of the old adage that "Absence makes the vote grow stronger." (with apologies).
