DR. EVANS MESSAGE FOR 'fHE SICKLE
I am grateful for lhe opporlunily of expressing thl'Ough lhe
Sickle greetings La Class '-II ant! 111)' personal appreciation of the
co-operation we hayc enjoyed in ct~lTyillg on the work of BrHlldoll

College dUI'ing the College yeoI' 19-10--11.
Due to the influences of the war, affecting activities both within

and without our College walls, lhe year has not heen an easy one
eilher for facully or sludenls. On lhe onc hand, our exira-curricular
programme, including nlhlelics, was re~lricled in scope, while on
tile olhel' hand activities associated with war effo!'t such as the

C.O.T.e. and the St. ./ohn's Ambulance Class made definile claims
lIpon time and energy.
In spite of difficulties, however, we all have associated together
wjlll pleasllre and profit, and fol' this we arc grateI'llJ. OUI' horizons
have been lifted; our knowledge has been increased; Our thinking

has been clarified; our powers of sell' diseiplinc have been developcd;
our ideals have been raised; our wisdom, I trust, has grown; and
with all, OUI' personalities have been enl'icheo.
II is for us now to show our appreciation and reveal Our grati-

lude for Ihe pl'ivilegcs lhal have been ours by using 10 Ihc full Ihe
cupacities we have, whether they be great or smaU, in the interests
of human good.

Toward Ihis end, may success allend your effol'ls, and may happincss be your good fOl'lune.

THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT, 1940-1941
]n the upsetting conditions attendant upon war activities and occu-

pations il is imporlant that we do nol lose sight of Ihe value of cultural
suhjects such as music. Thai thought is behind the wode of the Music
Department of Brandon College, and so, in spite of much that tends to
dissipate the inlerests of normal limes, there has been 00 lowering of
slnnda..l'ds. This has been clearly shown by the recital performances and
the examination results during this past difficult year.

Pupils have been prepared as usual for the IJraclieal and Iheoretical
examillGtions of the University of ~lanitoba, tbe Toronlo Conservatory,
and the Associated Board of the London (Eng.) Schools of Music. This
year's results sho\""\' the usual close-ta-one hundred percent passes, fnallY
of which were honors and first-class honors.

The members of the Faculty continue to contribute 131'gely to Ihe
work of the city chul'ch choirs and to give leadership and direction to

such groups as Ibe Brgndon IlI·aneb of the Manitoba Music Teachers'
Association and the Junior ~Iusic Appreciation Club.

TO THE GRADUATING CLASS
\\'ar is not a pleasant experience. The free peoples of
the world sought 10 ,woid it and only accepted it when
there was no other alternative left. Yet, even ill w3r, new

fOl'ces arc liberaled lhat may be hamessed for the benefit
of mankind if we have the vision, the skill and the determination La do so.

The presenl conflict has mariialled Ihe resources of
science nnd will make a\"ailable ~realcl' devices for allcyi-

ailing the ills of man; It has demonstrated that the AngloS:lXOIl commullities share a common interest in tile promotion of com ilion ideals; it has indicaled the futility of
pelly dissensions which lhreaten the foundations of nalional unit; it has proven, if proof were needed, thai FreedOIll imposes obligaLions and demands a highminded disin-

ICl'c:-;icdness from those who shure ils henefits.

It will he your duly to maintain and exploit Ihese advantages in the rebuilding of Olll" wodd. Your training has

heen designed to fit you for this task; il is only your OWIl

"'A Kiss for Cinderella" ·was in '41, and also the pro\,.-iolls year that Our
class carried off Ihe honors in the Drama Feslival. In addilion, Our representatives very ably upheld college tradition in Ihe Debating Society, alld
assisled in the S.c.~l., the Choir, and the Glee Club. In the realm of sporl
we were particuJarly sllccessful, and hockey, curling, bowling, and baskelball all "eceived OUI' enlhusiastic support. Also, for two years Ihe girls
of '~1 ha"e won the greatest number of points On Field Day. As ,,-clI, iL
is worlhy of note that in the wal' effort we have t.aken an active pari, in

Whose knowledge is not acquisition, but

And who can want

Marked with no label o[ esteem,

Against inclemency of

To conquer.

Class '-13 looks back on Ihe past year with a great deal of pride and
happiness. In September, we wcJcomcd to OUI' class, several freshmen,
who immediately joined in all aCli,"ities with enthusiaslll.
Our Class has been well represented in all college aetivilies. This
year J~3 seemed to be of a musical turn of mind as many or our members
were present in the Glee Club and Cbapel Choir, and we nrc proud to say
thal QlIl" popular girls trio [lrc all members of '43.
I

At all college parties '~:I turned out in full force and, as one of the
Seniors said when asked what came to mind 'when '-1:3 was mentioned,
"Well, you can certainly hear their yell at college parties!"
At Junior Lit. :'\ight, under the able supervision of Cliff Kitson, the
whole college enjoyed an old fashioned melodrama, "Penelope's Pcriless
Plunge" ::111<-1 the cruel villian, the object of many boos and hisses frolll
the crowd, was none other than our president, .Jack Neclin. '-.13 scored
again in "Still Stands the I-louse" fo .. both Dot j\loffat and Ted Speers
were members of the cast. In addition, our class was represented in '"Final
Edition" and various Puhlic Relation p"ogl'ams,
In othe,· fields we note thnt the students of '~3 assisted in \V" .. Effort
work, were active on the Art's Banquet Committee and took part in baskethall, bowling and social funclions.
And so with scvcral of our members on the new executive we anticipate e,·en g..eate.. sllccess in the yea .. 1911-19-12.

LITERARY BOARD
ln~IO-19~11 has seen the inauguration of the new Litcral"y Hoard, a
combinalion of the old Dramatic and Debating Societies. under Ihe ablc
guidancc of Miss Peg Doran thc Litcrary Board has this year begun two
ne))' and successful endeavors-Ihe Glcc Club and a series of Public Rela!Jons Programs.

'fhe dramatic program for the year was a complete and varied one,
including .Junior and Scnior Lils., the entering of a play in the \Vinnipeg

Intcr-Faculty Drama Festival, and the preparing of a play for Public
H.eJalions Programs.
Under Debating Ihe Board sponsored a debate with Lhe Iowa State
Teachers College and also participated in \Vinnipcg and local debates.
Public Relalions wilh the aid of the Glee Cluh played a large part in
this years programs. In the fall programs wcre scnt to the surrounding
lawns and districts and in the second term a series of four radio programs

were presented Iwo hy the Glee Club and two under dJ"amalics, all of
which reccived wide acclaim.
The nnqualified success of this ycars Literary endeavors spoke highly
for Ihe organizing ability of Peg Doran and also for Lhe talenl and enthusiasm of the students as a whole. To these students Ihe Lilerary Board
extends ils hearliesL Ihanks for helping 10 make Ihe year so successful.

FINANCE BOARD
The Brandon College Student Finance Board is a new organization

in thc College this year and has functioned succcssfully. Ii is composed of
an appointed chairman, the LreaslIrers of the variolls boards, an elected.
secl'elal'~'l and a Faculty advisor. Its prim;]!')" function is 10 co-ordinalc

the mallClg:clllenl of student funds in order that student fillHllces Illay b~

more clficicnlly handled. The Hoard held i1s meelings once a month, at
which lime it approved any e~pelldiLlIl'eS nol included in previously apI)rovcd budge Is.
Allhollgh the Board bcgan Ihe year somewhat hesitanlly, skeptics
soon gaincd cOl'ifidence in ils capacity, and the year closes wilh the Finance
Board on a much less precarious fooling. Now that such an organizatioll
lias been firlllly established we trust lhal it will fUllction with even
greater cfncicncy during the coming yen 1'.

THE QUILL
The Brandon College Quill is the official organ of the studcnt bod~
and is published as ncarly as possible weekly during the IeI'm.

Cndel'

the control of the efficient ,lanager of Publications, .lim "elson, it has
provided the students with nn interesting and instrllcting commentary
on students acli,"ities ill general.
For the first term the Editor was Allan Iligeubottom, and 1'01' the
concluding term it was under the editorship of George C'"llpbel!. During
the year special editions havc been features-a Literary Edilion, Co-Ed
Edition, aud Alumni Edition. Interest in the Quill has been increased
during the year, perhaps due to the fact that greater number of students
arc making contributions to its pages. The fact that contributions from
any student arc welcomed makes the Quill a truly democratic organ of
the student body. Although a number of students have worked conseeuth·ely in the Quill all year; due to the fact that writeups were made by
·n large a pl"Oportion of the student hody this yeal'·S Sickle docs not
contain a picture of the Quill Stalf.

THE DEBATING CLUB
The Debating Club this year has been under the jurisdiclion of the
Literary Board, and has been eo-ordinated with that board in all its acti"ilies. The representative to the Literary Bm'rd from the Debating
Club has been Allan Higenbottam who, assisted by the 130al'd, contl"Olic"
the debating aclivities of the Student Body during the past year.
The most important single feature of debating actidtie this ~·ear
was the debate between Brandon College and the State Teachers College
of Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

In tllis ycry interesting dehate the topic

WHS

"Resolved that nations of the \Vestern Hemisphere should enter into a
permanent Pan-American union." The vole by applause of the audience
was slighlly in favor of Lhe visiting teum who supported tile negative issue

of U,e question. Brandon College was represented by Stanley E. Searle
and Gerald Old; the visiting team by the names of Clem Morphew and
Bill McGahey.
In connection with public relations, the Debating Club sent two debating teams to a meeting of the Attendants Association at the llrllndon
,fen tal Hospita!. The question debated was "Resolved that present legislc.tion is detrimental to freedom of speech, press and assembly." The
negative side, supported by George Ingham and Shirley Carrothers, WOIl
the decision over Ted Speers and Dorothy Korman.
An enjoyable feature of previous debating, that of inter-Collegiate
debates with Manitoba University, was lacking Ihis year. 11 was fett thilt
during the war, these aclh·ities in connection with intel·-Collegiate debates should be curtailed. Notwithstanding this, the Debating Club can
be credited with the diseo,·ery of some very promising talent. which
should slimulate the interest in debaling during the coming year.

GLEE CLUB REVIEW
From the popular male octette of last year bas emerged this year's
Glee Club, with Dr. Cragg retaining his position as director. Don Knipfel
acted as business manager and the Club's representative to the Literary
Board. The .major purpose of Ihis organization is contained jn the sale
idca of giving cnjoyment to its members. The Club held its mcetings at
the hour 01" ten on Monday evening of each week at the homes 01" 0,'.
Cragg and Dr. Johns. Thlale and female choruses, folk songs, sea shanties
bal1ads and negro spirituals served as a beginning, hut it was 1101 long
before this repctoire was expanded. On request, public appearances were
made at College Lits, at the City Hall, and at the out-of-town points. This
term we b"[lIJched out even further into thc field of radio. \Vith this
achievement the Cluj, ended its meetings for tbis year. Every member
has received much enjoyment as well as valuable Jnusical instruction froill
these gatherings. The leadership has .been very greaUy appreciated and
it is sincerely hoped Ihat the Glee Club will continue to be a vilaI part of
College activities.

The Co-Eds Association has had a most satisfactory year. Our functions were reduced to a minimum during the second term as our attention
was foclissed on wal' work. However, in the first term we sponsored a
ver~' successful Co-Ed i\lothel' and Daughter Hanquet. and later an all
college party which took the forlll of a somewhal wintry hike. Both functions were managed most efficiently by the various cOllllllillees and OUI'
reputation for really colossal parlies was ably upheld.

Lasl September the Co-Eds served doughnuts and coffee to the
members of the C.O.T.C. who were training On the campus Sallll'da~1

afternoons. These refreshments needless to say, were much appreciated

hy the hays in the exigencies of their early training.
After Christmas il was in the Co-Ed executive Ihat a definile plan
for wal' effort took shape in the form of the Variety Concert and ~n all
the alTangements the Co-Eds took an active part. Five Dorothies, Dorothy
Korman, Dorothy Mollat, Dorothy Pierson, Dorothy Tinline, and Mal·i'e
Dorothy :-;ay held a Silver Ten, augmenting the "Dorothy Spitfire" fund
by fourteen dollars. The ellon of which the Co-Eds are mosl proud is7
the afghan, to be given to the Red Cross. The girls contributed blocks
knitted six inches square and latcl' a group gathered in the club rOOm 10' b
sew them together. The result was pleasing and very colorful.

'We feel that OUI' year has been successful in another aspeel. One
objective of the association is to bring resident and non-resident Co-Eds
together and to foster unity and good-fellowship among the girls. It has)
certainly achieved Ihal purpose this year and in Our undertaking all the 1
Co-Eds have given enthusiastic flnd full-hearted support. The wOl'ds of
OllI' song H'Ve've got pep, just walch 0111' step" is indeed indicative of the
,pirit of the 19-10-41 Co-Eds,
'Ve sincerely thank our honorflry president, DI'. Turnhall, 10 whom,

The Sigma i\lu, one of the newel' organizations, endeavors to create
a stronger College spirit among the men of Brandon College. Owing to
insufficient funds the Sigma ~Iu was unable to hold any social function
Ihis ye.:'1r. ]n addition, much of our time was taken up with miJil.ary
training and so any other activities were necessarily limited.
Seycl"al meeltings were held during the year and one thing that was
accomplished was a definite incrcase in Ihe number of men at College
parties and the much heralded appearance of cOl"sages at the Firsl Term

CLARK HALL COUNCIL
The Clark Hall Council is the cabinet of girl's residence governmenl.
The I-lead of the Council, Edith McFadden, and Ihe secrelary, Phil Saul,
were clecled al Ihe close of last year. The junior l'epresenlalive. Doreen
Bolslad, was chosen by the juniors at Ihe beginning of Ihe IeI'm. Becau,e
of the small enrollment this yegr one representative instead of two was
elected 1'1'0111 each division.

The Council Illeets wilh the Lady Dean every \\londay uoon to discuss
rules and La settle misunderstandings. The report of this meeting is given

by the Head to the girls al Vesper period on ~Iouday nighl.
This yeai' the Council arranged for dancing in Ihe Girl's Club Boolll
fl'ol11 G:45 107:1;'. The Head of Ihe council in co-open,tion with lIle Brandon College Residence Council planued joinl Vespers each \Vednesday
and Friday as usual. In addition, al'l"angell1cllls were made for I'oom in-

speclion one evening-once when we really had our rOoms polished up.
And so, despile our small numbel's, we feel Ihal 1 !l~O-1911 has been
a hnppy and most sliccessful year in residence life.

BRANDON COLLEGE RESIDENCE
Under the guidance of Mr. Bil'kenshaw in the capacity of residence
master aided hy an elficient residence council and the ready co-operalion
of the residence members, Brandon College residence Ihis year has
achieved an all-time high in regard to smooth, harlllonious operation.
The residence council was composed of 1\11'. Bil'kenshaw, Residence l\Lu!o'-

IeI': Eldon Hliss, sludenl head of tlte council; Jack ~Iooney, secl·~tary;
Gerald Old; Rex Ballard and Greg. Grant.
A spirit of good fellowship was prevalent throughollt Ihe entire yenl'
and it began immediately with thc initiation of the Frcshman members
of the residence. \Ve would like to express Our apprecialion 10 Miss Duncan and ~lrs. Darrach for her delighlful inler-l'esid~llce parly and also
for her care of Our members when confined to the hospital 1'00111.
Due to the generosity of (he administration and the ceaseless efforts
of the residence council, an advance has been made in Lhal we have ob-

tained 24 hom light service in all rOOI11S replacing Ihe fOl'lner II o'clock
lights-out syslem.
The prolection of the residence from fire was this year in the hallds
of fire chief Gerald Old.
There was in the course of the year the occ"sional bed dumped, the
occasional water bomb dropped but due 10 the understanding friendship
of our residence master the members are grateful 10 him in Ihal he has
led the residence successfully in its happy COurse.

ATHLETIC BOARD
It has been indeed difficull 10 plan a suilable alhlelic program for
Ihis year. The e.O.T.e. and LJ.T.L'. courses in Ihe College have necessilalcd many changes in Ihe usual rouline and consequently Ihe majorily of
Ihe bo'·s have had little lime 10 devole 10 Ihe field of athletics. ]-Iowever.
wilh ~il·. Birkinshaw as chairman of Ihe Board and Charlie llamillon

as chairman of the Executive Committee. arrangements wer~ 1l1ade fOt"

as many sports as possihle and these reeei'·ed excellent support from Ihe
sludenl body.
During the early pari of Firsl Term Ihe Annual Field Day was held.
Bolh Ihe Co-Eds and the Sigma ,lu'ers displayed admirable sporlsmanship and made Ihis one of Ihe mosl successful Field Days of Ihe pasl
few years.
Anolher function which has become one of Ihe mosl anlieipaled of
all College aclivilies is Ihe Hockey Excursion. This year the Excursion
\\'a~ held at ~eepawa, and although our boys didn't win the game. ColIcge .;;ph-it reached a new high and this cvening will go dOwn in OUI"

memories as one of Ihe mosl oulslanding in our College career.
Baskelball is ordinarily one of our foremosl sporls, bul due 10 Ihe
lime required for mililary Imining, boy's basketball had to he given up

HOCKEY AND SKATING
Aner Christmas many of the studenls devotcd somc of their lime tu
skating and hockey practice. The ice was kept in ullusuaLly good con-

dition and as well as regutar night skaling, bolh the boys and the girts
had hockey teams. The girl's games were chiefly in the form of Hesidenc('
YS. Non-Residence skirmishes. One might even call these gHmcs spec-

tacular-it all depends on your point of view! 'fhe most important event
in respect to boy's hockey was the game at Neepuwa where, although
they wcre defeated, Ihey disptayed outstanding talent and Ihe making
of a first class College team.

BOWLING
UnliJ Chrislrnas, bowling ullder the able management of Stan \Vilkills. was the major athletic event. During the course of the year 1\\'0

!ourlHlInents with the Brandon Collegia Ie look ptace. The Orst was a
draw and thc second brought viclory to the Collegc with a five out of
six game series.
The team winning the most games during the season was headed hy
Charlic Hamillon, supporled by Alixe Meadows, Anna Fteming, Elmer
Kaufman and George Ingham.
Among the men, the highest average was obtained by Abe Reidel'

with a score of 215. \Vitkins was a ctose second with 209, Hamilton third
with 204, and Grant fourlh with 199. The highesl scorc for men's single

For the girols, the highest average, 150 was attained by hoth Alixc

U. OF M. C.O.T.C., BRANDON COMPANY
The Canadian Officers Training Corps was re-established al Brandon
College during the first ter1Tl1940. It was designed to provide University
students with military training while still continuing their ,'cgulal' sludic"i.
Because of the wide benefits to be deri"ed from this 1,Ian the sludenls
entered illio it wilh great enthusiasm and an appreciative desire to help
their country. The company was limited afler the First Parade on Ocl. 10,

Students 1101 in the C.O.T.e. were cla~sed in the U.l\l.T.C. and WCl'e
given the opportunity to lake Ihe practical coourse of the C.OT.e. and

The Practical Course was carried olll on the College Campus, the
Brandon Annouries, and the Purade Square at the 10lst Training Centre,
Hrnndon Barracks. The Cadets were trailled in squad drill, Small Arms
Training, I'ine firing and bayonet drill. The Squad drill was strongly
stressed with each individuaJ cadel being given the opportunity to show
his own originatily and initiative by laking command of his platoon find
giving instructions to his feUo\\' Cadets. Light l\lachine Guns were handled and explaincd. Everyone will remember vcry distinctly thc gas training course and the Illany tears shed over' it. Route marches enabled liS to

first I.it. of the College year. ,Judging hy its I eccplion we may pronounce
the endeavor a real achievement.

contrihuted to ensure the Lit's success. Suffice it to say that a variety of
selections by the Glee Club. trio and quartette vocal numbers. readings,
lap dances, vocal solos and even hill-billy choruses constituted the lirst
half of the variety programme.
