PRESENT STATUS OF A STUDENTS AT WATERLOO

Alumni Bulletin)

As your reporter entered the office of the President of Waterloo University College, Herbert Melvin Axford was pouring over blueprints of the college campus. Though just arriving in Waterloo on Labour Day and as yet not totally unpacked, Dr. Axfordi, true to his dynamic personality, has already thrown his energies into the rapidly moving developments at the college. Following a brief discussion, your reporter was invited to accompany the President to his ternporary home on Hickory St., where his charming wife, ‘Joan, served tea and talked of their three children. Marilyn, age 8, Donald and Jimmy, ages 10 and 11 were at school in Lexington, the site of the new Axford home presently in its final stages Of construction. The Axfords have lived in many parts of the continent and have camped in many others. They pride themselves for adapting quickly to their environment. A pride well justified for in three weeks they have established themselves as members of St. John’s Lutheran congregation where Don and Jim have joined the cub and scout groups. Born in 1924, Herbert Melvin Axford received his elementary and secondary school education in his home town, Winnipeg. Upon graduation from the Daniel McIntvre Collegiate Institute in 1936, Herbert Axford began a career which carried him into various phases of the business world and through progressive stages in the field of education. As a buy-boy with Marshall Wells, a government agricultural assistant, a grade 2 clerk with the R.C.A.F. and a Canada Packers livestock accountant, student Axford both earned his tuition to the University of Manitoba and accumulated much of the practical and administrative background which qualifies him for his new position. After completing his Bachelor of Commerce course Lt. Axford spent three years with the Royal Calriadian Naval Reserve as paymaster, supply officer and maintenance officer. He presently holds the rank of Lt. Commander in that corps. While proceeding ion-ards his s/laster of Commerce degree, he met the woman he was to marrJ-. Then followed seven years of teaching assistantships, research and an instructorship at the University of Wisconsin and Knox College, Illinois. From Knox College, Assistant Professor Axford accepted< the

chairmanship of the Department of Economics and Business Administration at Pacific Lutheran College in Tacoma, Washington. Here he completed the thesis which earned him his Doctorate of Philosophy and an associate professorship. As secretary of the School of Commerce, University of Alberta, his next post, Dr. Axford accepted the call to Waterloo University College to become its sixth president. Welcome and best wishes to President Axford and his family.

The Phi Delta Pi has been an active organization this year. The Annual Welcoming Tea for freshettes was held September 24 in the Lounge. Over one hundred students were greeted by .Dale Perrin, President, Miss Joan McGill, Dean of Women,. Mrs. Schaus, and Mrs. Axford. The occasion provided a good opportunity for the freshettes to meet their ‘big sisters’, other freshettes, other senior students and the female members of the faculty. On October 7th, we had a Wiener Roast in the Torque Room, Several tables provided fuel for a big bonfire in the centre of the room and freshettes and their ‘big sisters” had a gay time toasting (vieners and marshmallows with ong straws. After a brief sing-song, we clapIed our hands in glee and left the vild and woolly Torque Room, lack to civilization. The next event will be the >INNING CEREMONY.

I hope you will stay tuned to this station tor the rest of the season. Initiation week is over now and nost of us are’ settling down to academic work and a few extracurricular activities. However, I :an’t let the initiation die without idding my final “two cents worth.” I was impressed by the spirit and apparent willingness to cooperate shown by most of the girls in the freshman class. As a matter of fact I was amazed that the girls were so eager to do dead horses, salaams, recite Shakespeare, carry lamps, sit under tables, admit they were “bums”, “scum”, and what have you. (Especially Judy Chamberlain! !> Thursday evening of initiation week was perhaps the most memorable evening. The non-resident students were invited to the dorm and “drilled” by Helen Young and her cohorts while yours truly was given the opportunity to have revenge on the resident students (eh Roberts), or vice versa, depending upon how you look at it. Aft,er two hours of solid drill the restrictions w,ere lifted slightly to allow all present to have a little fun and fellowship. Truly, that week is now in the past, but I hope that the enthusiasm and feeling of unity among the freshman class that was so apparent during the entire ordeal will continue in the present and future. If such is the case, both you and Waterloo College will find it mutually rewarding.

Mediscope‘59 From October 12 to October 17, thousands of people, ranging in professions from the average labourer to the engineering specialist, walked into the Queen Edizaat the C.N.E. beth Building grounds, to see the Ontario Medical Association’s “Mediscope-59”. They came out with perhaps a little more knowledge of medicine than when they went in. The entire exposition was put on at the expense of the O.M.A. ,Free admission andl programs and informative pamphlets were great aids in attracting the public. The exhibits were obviously designed to appeal to the average Plaster models of the layman. eye, the heart, and other organs, , gave a general impression of what these organs looked like, while detailed photographs, x-ray pictures, and movies, presented information in a more exact technical form. I could quickly perceive, however, that the richest store of information lay in the doctors, nurses, and technicians who were present at every exhibit. For example; in exhibit one, there was a very ordinary-looking gentleman seated beside an anaesthetic machine. I leaned over the guard rail and asked him how Nitrous Oxide (a tank of which was in the machine) came into use as an anaesthetic. The story he told me was amazing. Before he had finished, there were about twenty people gathered around the booth, each one straining to hear this little man tell of the American dentist who first made use of the unique “laughing gas” as an anaesthetic. The facts which most impressed me about Mediscope were the tremendous opportunities which I could see in almost every exhibit, for the application of mechanical and electrical engineering. In exhibit 22, labelled “Internal medicine”, a Kitchener doctor told me of the wide use that medicine is making of radioactive isotopes in diagnosing functional diseases. In the booth, he had two scintallation counters, each consisting of a detector, photomultiplier, an d counter. It was easy\ to see how both electrical and mechanical engineering could be applied to improve upon tracing techniques. Another impressive man whom I talked to was a Toronto brain surgeon, who outlined the use of the electro-encephalograph machine to diagnose mental and some functional diseases. He also spoke of the use of a high frequency electric arc knife which he uses in all operations. This knife not only cuts finer and cleaner than the conventional knife, but it closes off the severed blood vessels as well. My talk with this man was worth the entire1 visit. The scope of work covered at this exposition was much too wide for me to deal with here. It served its purpose well, for it offered the layman a chance to have a closer look at the oncemysterious science of medicine, and it offered to those interested, the opportunity to make further contacts with some great Canadians. The opportunities of applying electrical and! mechanical engineering to further improve upon present techniques and equipment is staggering.

This is the year that we begin to come out of the doldrums in sports at our dear Alma Mater. This is the year all the Mule Teams begin to make their presence felt in inter-varsity competition, and this is the year that the campus activities will begin to form into a well developed and organized program. Sound too optimistic? Perhaps. But then again there are innovations around the University that point to this new development. Then too,, there are some things that have to be improved. The biggest improvement in the Athletic field comes in the form of a new member of the staff. The “powers that be” finally saw fit to appoint an assistant to director Totzke and a McMaster graduate, Dan Pugliese, was given the position. Dan has been working as if he meant business, (ask some of the boys on the football team if you don’t believe me), proving himself a ball of fire in Now we have two all respects. of a kind working in our hallowed confines of Seagram gymnasium.

more apparent on the line as was the quarterbacking of Brian Brock who seems to improve game by game. Rosenberg started the scoring on a 2 yd. plunge. Archer’s quick kick was recovered by Dave Craig who ran 63 yds. before being hauled down on the Carleton 1 yd. line. Archer then carried it over. An interception by Dan Yarmey who lateralled to Doug Drynan provided another Mule T.D. John Enns counted two converts and a 23 yd. field goal. Brian Near then picked off another Carleton pass and raced 50 yds. for the last Waterloo T.D. Congratulations, men, for a job I well. done!

And now that we have more staff we have better organization drop over to the gymnasium some day and see the “new look”.

BRITTLE has been climbing the walls of Willison for ages, this year we might get a new girl! Ivy

Initiation was a success but one criticism has been rendered,. Some of the language, and so-called jokes, by certain members of the freshman class at the Court proceedings proved most embarrassing to the ladies who were present. Let’s hope there’s no repetition of this crude type of humour. Boy Scout Apple Day passed by again on Saturday. One individual looked extremely happy when purchasing his specimen of fruit. When asked to explain his obvious glee he remarked that he was on his way to see the doctor’s wife. (An apple a day keeps the doctor away! ) The Mules, after giving everybody something to cheer about, came back to reality last Saturday against R.M.C. They played an interesting game - most people prefer football. The display proved there’s still one quiz game left - “Where’s My Ldne?” Out of town students returning to Waterloo will be pleased to know that a new radio station is now operating in this district. They’re playing some unusual music, one program included Chopin’s Etude for the Left Hand Only - he wrote it while shaving. Some new ideas in broadcasting are being tried by Alcoholics Anonymous; they’re taping different types of burps and presenting them on a coast-to-coast hiccup.

Respect for the Universities and for the P & G would sink quite low if this show were allowed to die before opening ‘night; and yet there is still a lot to do. For instance, the stage will be put up in Seagram Gym on Saturday morning. ’ This is your chance to help. The fellows can help build it and the girls can work on the curtains. So be there on Saturday morning and stay until you honestly feel that you have made a sincere effort to help with the show. The show is about the complications and chaos that go into putting a P & G show together.

Each day at the University of Waterloo, brings many changes in the buildings and grounds of our newly-formed campus. We are presently viewing, with great pleasure, the progress being made in applying the finishing touches to our magnificent new physics and math building. The spacious lobby, the students’ lounge, the marble stairs, the luxurious office wing, and completely equipped labs and classrooms, and the beautiful faqade, all make us proud to be a part of this great adventure in education. However, we would like to see a lot more information presented to the student body, on the future plans for our university. We can only surmise what our campus will look like after the present frenzied construction has been completed. New roads are being constructec; where will they go? New buildings; an engineering building, and a student office building, are rumoured to be scheduled for construction in the near future; but where, and at what cost? We will be offered post-graduate work at some future date, and the university will be able to give accredited degrees in all fields of scholastic work? at a future date; but when? We students have been told by the administration that our presence here at’ the university is its only reason for existing. We are the university! As a university, we would like to know where we are going, and how long it is going to take f6r us to get there. Ron Church, Enginews Editor,

S Three weeks ago, the U. of W. Amateur Radio Club held elections and installed the following officers: Eric Manning-President Pete Cover-Vice-President Ron Tedball-Recording Secretary and Treasurer Paul Tait-Sergeant-at-Arms With this problem taken care of, the club immediately concentrated on writing and approving ’ the club constitution, which was passed with 1100percent approval. At last Tuesday’s meeting (Nov. 10) several proposals were put forward. It was mentioned that code classes should be begun to instruct our non-licensed members in Morse Code. Also, it was suggested that we have technical lectures given by a guest professor (club presii and Eric Manning Having several licensed dent). “hams” with us, it was also detided that a club station should be arranged for as soon as possible, with all the facilities for communications, so that a cornpetent message service could be run, as well as other activities of “ham” radio. The equipment we obtain, however, is dependent upon the size of the grant we obtain, and at the time of writing, information regarding this was scarce. It is our desire that we will be able to afford the Heathkit Mohawk receiver, and the Apache transmitter. Anyone interested in attending the meetings, is invited to come

Gs One might call this the off season in our College sports and consequently there is precious little to write about. I could make some predictions but they always turn out wrong, or I could blast off about some controversial subject which in turn pleases few, angers many and helps nothing. And so what is left for an uninspired sport’s columnist to write about? The only thing that comes to mind is the delicate subject of football. With the cleats and shoulderpads tucked away for another year, it might be well to review this year’s highlights. We won a game. This, first and foremost, is quite an important accomplishment. As I said at the first of this year this is our year to begin to come out of the doldrums. Next year should be even bigger and better. But yet there are some difficulties to be overcome. If we are going to be any sort of a threat, we need to have the players practising before the school term begins. This is an old theme’ and enough has been said about it. In the financial world, if a . company is at a standstill, they often call an expert in for expert aid. This could be true in the football situation here. Now, before anyone jumps to conclusions, I want to say I think Coach

Totzke has done as good a job a1s possible with the material at hanc But then, sometimes an expel can make even more out of th material which is to be uset This is only food for thought bt one can see a good example c its success when Carl bro,ught i Lennie Ford this year. The lin play was a standout over th season. And so these are but a fel observations that one might make You have probably formulate d your own opinions througout th e football year. $4 2; <: Bowling seems to be the be; ;t organized and attended activit Y this year. Jim Sernasie has don e a good job in all respects; hi energy coupled with the fine cc operation of Bob Totzke of th e Waterloo Lanes is resulting in a great deal of fun and exercis for all. Every Tuesday 20 team of six players are participatin and some high scores have alread been turned in. Tops in this dc partment is an amazing 365 rolle by Paul Rempel. There is one unfortunate draw back. The bowling schedule clash es with curling and those wh want to play both games are UT able to do so. It is with the hop that something might be done t remedy this that I close th column.

The annual classic conflict of the Art’s-Engineer’s Mud-Bowl was played on Wednesday, Nov. 11. The Engineers out-waded the plucky Art’s team with the result that they won 14 to 1. Early in the first quarter, Toivonen, booted a 50 yard kick for rouge; putting Art’s in the lead 1 to 0. After much fumbling and exchanging of the ball, the Engineer’s offensive team jelled in a 40 yard drive that was topped off by a 20 yard reverse run by Mitchell, with a hip block thrown by Spencer. In the second half the Engineers were never in trouble because their strong defensive t eam wouldn’t yield. any yardage to the non-existant Art’s offense. Hull completed a few beautiful passes that pulled the Art’s defense

apart. He then called an oA tackle counter-play that went 3 yards with Phillips carrying, t make the score 12 - 1 for the Er gineers. Late in the last quarte: the Art’s quarter Sergeantson, back, was tackled by the who1 .e Engineers team for the safety touch that made the game 14 for the Engineers. Carl Totzke and Dan Puglies .e deserve a vote of thanks for thei .r cooperation and good refereein g throughout the game. Games an d rivalries of this nature enhanc e the school spirit and do an endles amount to help the students t get well acquainted. The on1 excuse the Art’s gave for thei defeat was that the Engineers ar used to wallowing in the mud a week, with the result that the were playing in their element.

The officials were getting desperate. But one, or maybe two, of the populace had faith. They walked among the rank and file spreading the word. Failure, they said, would be bad. Their losses would be great. Their prestige would dwindle. The common folk listened. Three, or maybe four, agreed with one, or maybe two. Five, or maybe six, agreed with three, or maybe four. The symbols were now appearing in public. People wanted to buy ducats. Where were the ducats? The leaders of the groups were excited. Naturally. They had support. Lots of it. An assembly was called. And a decision was made. There will be a I? & G show! A vote of thanks to the dining hall staff for cleaning the silverware and glasses - prices should be next thing due for cleaning. This column originated in a P. 8~ G. rehearsal.

Engineering IB moved atop the standings in Intramural hockey play Thursday night with a tight 4-3 victory over Eng. 2B. Eng.IAs remained undefeated by downing Frosh A 3-0, they tied in their first game, and Frosh B came through with a 5-3 victory over PreEng. The basketball schedule seems to be falling on its face as ,five out of six games were defaulted. In the game that was played, Eng.lB posted a 4.1-18 victory over Eng.lAs. Frosh B won by default over Pre Eng; Eng.2A won by default over Pre Eng; Frosh A won by default over Jrs.-Srs. and Frosh B won by default over Sophs. Jrs.-Srs. have now defaulted three games and the Seminarians have agreed to floor a team to take their place. However there will be no games played next Monday,. Nov. 23 because the P and G Show will occupy the gym

The multitudes were indifferent. They didn’t seem to care. They expressed contempt. One, or maybe two, cherished a faint glimmer of hope. But the general masses - they weren’t interested. They spoke o.nly of disparagement. ‘Don’t have the time,’ or ‘Too busy’ were the pathetic chiches offered in disdain. But one, or maybe two, still harboured a potent flash of desire. Days past. Progress was non-existent. The organizers expressed trepidation. Signs were posted. Some of the rabble read the tokens. Some of the common herd laughed at them. Some of the ‘hoi polloi’ signed them; not their own names, of course. One, or maybe two, of the proletariat urged their comrades to participate. But the mob would not listen. There were too many things to do, places to go, and lectures to miss. More days past.
