I t may selm unusual to find asparagus minshy

gling with lilies of the valley in a dining room tloral arranglment but at Kerr Farms Ltd just outside Chatham Ontario its a sure sign that

spring has sprung and the great asparagus harvest is on

K~rr Farms asparagus grows on Kent

County land that has been cultivated by

Lawrence Kerr OAC 29 for more than 40 years Today Lawrences son Bob OAC 68 manages the mixed farming operation that

stretc hes along the edge of t he city Both father and son are innovative and

hard-working They raise cucumbers for the

pickle packers tomatoe s for the ketchup and

canned tomato processors and corn and alfalfa field crops for feed and seed They also run several large feedlots where canle can fea st on the culls sceds and skins not used by the packing houses

Bob proudly points to the countless rows of asparagus We planted the first roots in 1969 Then we waited two years for the plants to grow and develop underground storage

roots so we werent able to pick any shoots until 1971 - - and then only for three week s

As the soil warms in spring the buds in the centre of the asparagus root or crown send out

shoots one from each bud When these shoots reach a height of seven or eight inches theyre

cut The stubs then cease growing but other buds stan to send out shoots

In Kent County the harvest usually begins during the first week in May But we finish

around June 21 says Bob If we continued beyond that date the plants would run out of

stored energy and die So after seven weeks we stop harvesting and allow the shOalS to grow to maturity

You might expect an asparagus field to

look lush with thick rows of bright green spears pointing skyward But il doesnt The

individual shoots are straight lhick and green but they don t all grow at the same time During each days harvest only the longes t stalk s are

picked Looking out over the fields you can

actually see more soil than asparagus so the

fields look sandy grey In warm weather the shoots grow as much

as four inches in a single day and each field must be completely harvested each day

Considering that Kerr Farms has 180 acres of asparagus it takes more than a few pickers to clear the field s lnfact there are nine teams

with five pickers each During the harvest there are usually seven oreight teams picking at

one time The pic kers sit in strange-looking vehicles

that resemble tlying machines with canopies on

top These pick iog aids are des igned to prevent

any trampling of the plants by providing

footholds for each picker The vehicle comfortably seats five pickers so five rows can be harvested at one time As the vehicle moves

along they cut only those spears that have reached the right height Because the pickers

are so well trained they re able to cut to s ize for canners who have ordered spears of a specific length and thickness

The pickers also grade as they cut placing

the choi ce grade A I in neat row s in a designated box and first and second grade spears in their designated boxes This on-the~spot grading is

important to the whole operation because it

e liminates extra handling in the wareho use

Like all fres h produce asparagus bruises eas il y if its handled too muc h

n ivcrs ity middottudents are h ired fo r the peak

s aso n to help co-ordi nate the pick ing They

scoot up and down the rows o n mOlor bikes wi th walk ie- tal kies in hand to keep in touch

w ith the office warehouse and machine shop A loader p ick s up the fu ll boxes o f graded asparagus as soon as they re left at the end of

the fi e ld hy the p icke rs Aft er be ing weighed the y re e ither stored in coolers where they stay unt il theyre needed hy the processors or

theyre de li vered immediately to the asparagus s tand at th edge o f the road

At the stand Boh s w ife Moira supervises the sal es of tons of the elegant green

vege tahles C usto mers come fro m ncar and far so me come e very day so me once a week People s awareness o f asparagu s as a spring

vege table is constantly grow ing says Bob Fresh from the farm asparagus is at its bes t Stalks coming in from Ca liforn ia and Washington in the ofT- season are more fibrou s and often have a longer coarse butt end

Asparagus ages during ha rves ting assemb li ng packing and Shipping

Thi s fre sh-pick ed asparagus o nly need s to be washed and cooked says Bob or

hlanched and fnJ ze n Our customers have very littIe waste and if they can cook it the same day they buy it no flavo ur is lost

In Ontario thc sa le of asparagus to processors is handled by the O ntari o Aspa ragus G rowcrs Marketing Board the oldest

marketing board in the province It was formed to assist small-acreage growers in the promotion and marke ting of their crop Today

there are 216 members and they produce two-thirds o f the asparagus harvested in Canada

Business is not without problems

Although acreage hasn t changed the yield in

Ontario has gone down from more than four million pounds in 1979 to a little more than three and a half million in 1982

Bob says his yield is not as h igh as he had hoped The crop is vulnerable Asparagus pl ants are sens itive to stress factors including age weather di sease handling and the

pressures of harvesting may weaken the plants and actually ca use some to die Plants usually

produce for ten to 20 years Eventually if die-out exceeds new growth yields decline

The Kerrs along with other growers are awaiting the development of a new asparagus

hybrid Performance dem onstrations have already been given in New Jersey Parent

materials have been selected and these are being reproduced by tissue culture known a lso as cloning so buds can be developed into many plants all identical to the parents Ultimately

there will be a hybrid line spec ifically geared to growing conditions in Ontario Then its hoped

the yield will satisfy the appetites of asparagus lovers

How To Cook Asparagus

Little prepara tio n is necessary when asparagu s spears are fa rm- fresh and pick ed the same day Th at s when texture flavour a nd

colour are at their peak 2 Ib1 kg fresh asparagus Salt Boiling water

Wash sta lks in co ld water If necessary

rinse under the bracts or scales but don t peel them away unless they seem very tough at the lower end Snap the stalks at the point where

the y break easily no cutting is necessary Save the butt ends for soup

In a large skillet put spears in salted boiling water just to co ver Bring water back to

boil and boil gently uncovered for five minutes o r until tender-crisp Overcooking

makes asparagus mushy and dull With tongs lift asparagus out onto warm

Asparagus at the U ofG

A new I 500-s4 uare- foot greenhouse bchind the Horticultural Science buildshy

ing houses a long-term project expected to breathe new life into the Canadian asparagus industry

Built at a cost of $42 000 most of which was provided by the Canadian Food Processors Research Committee under the direction of the

anadian Horticultural Council the greenhouse is being used for experiments designed to develop new asparagus varieties

Professor Herman Tiessen OAC 51 Department of Horticultural Science says that although small the new unit is technologically far in advance of the older greenhouses which have served the Departme nt for the past 70 years It features energy-efticicntlight-weight double-acrylic panels and the latest in ventilation controls

As paragus growers in Ontario have long reli ed almost excIusiwly on the V ikin g strain Far hi gher yields are available from Cal ifornian varie ties according to Professor T iessen but these are insufflc icntly hardy Superior results may also be obtained from European seed but

only at a cost of six or seven times as much per kilo

Pro fessor Tiessen s research team is experimenting with crosses invo lving both European and Ameri can lines The y hope to

The greenhouse features a series of cages each containing a number of female plants and one male plant with bee pollinators The potted plants are moved to the different cages at the proper flowering stage This maximizes breeding efficiency for the production o f more new hybrids for yield assessment

The Guelph research ers are working WIth clones se I ected from h igh- produei ng plants taken from Viking and other varietie s and are crossing them with plants grown fro m imported seed

Vikingat present produces anything from fi vc to 40 spears per plant If we can raise the average to 30 spears per plant we will double (he present yield and make asparagus a profitable and attracti ve crop notes Professor Ticsscn In British Columbia and Quebec 85 per cent of the aspara gus req uired for processing has to be imported and the situation is little better in Ontario where some processors ha ve already shut down their asparagus lines tor lack of suppli es

Thi s fre sh-pick ed asparagus o nly need s to be washed and cooked says Bob or

hlanched and fnJ ze n Our customers have very littIe waste and if they can cook it the same day they buy it no flavo ur is lost

In Ontario thc sa le of asparagus to processors is handled by the O ntari o Aspa ragus G rowcrs Marketing Board the oldest

marketing board in the province It was formed to assist small-acreage growers in the promotion and marke ting of their crop Today

there are 216 members and they produce two-thirds o f the asparagus harvested in Canada

Business is not without problems

Although acreage hasn t changed the yield in

Ontario has gone down from more than four million pounds in 1979 to a little more than three and a half million in 1982

Bob says his yield is not as h igh as he had hoped The crop is vulnerable Asparagus pl ants are sens itive to stress factors including age weather di sease handling and the

pressures of harvesting may weaken the plants and actually ca use some to die Plants usually

produce for ten to 20 years Eventually if die-out exceeds new growth yields decline

The Kerrs along with other growers are awaiting the development of a new asparagus

hybrid Performance dem onstrations have already been given in New Jersey Parent

materials have been selected and these are being reproduced by tissue culture known a lso as cloning so buds can be developed into many plants all identical to the parents Ultimately

there will be a hybrid line spec ifically geared to growing conditions in Ontario Then its hoped

the yield will satisfy the appetites of asparagus lovers

How To Cook Asparagus

Little prepara tio n is necessary when asparagu s spears are fa rm- fresh and pick ed the same day Th at s when texture flavour a nd

colour are at their peak 2 Ib1 kg fresh asparagus Salt Boiling water

Wash sta lks in co ld water If necessary

rinse under the bracts or scales but don t peel them away unless they seem very tough at the lower end Snap the stalks at the point where

the y break easily no cutting is necessary Save the butt ends for soup

In a large skillet put spears in salted boiling water just to co ver Bring water back to

boil and boil gently uncovered for five minutes o r until tender-crisp Overcooking

makes asparagus mushy and dull With tongs lift asparagus out onto warm

former prohibition was int nded to pro tect native fi sh populatiuns

Fi sh farming caught on quickly with the

emphasis on rainbow rather than brook or

speckled trout But by the middle o f the decade many farmers were having serious

prohlems dealing with disease and maintaining proper water supplies and even at government

leve ls helpful knowledge and resources were minimal

Rich firs t came into contact with the industry in his pos ition at the OvC lab

Formally organized in the mid- 1970s to meet thc needs of fish farmers as well as aquarium

owncrs and ve te rinarians the lah provides contract research in disease diagnos is fish hea lth management hi stopathology and electron microsco py

My time at the Ov was exciting

rewardin g and a period of pos itive growth and learn ing says Ric h After years of studyi ng I really enjoyed being invo lved in rescarch and extension education with memhers of the aquaculture industry But while the lab was a

huild ing block in his career it was also a stumbling hlock Rich found himse lf

constantly scrambling for mo ney and survival since the lab operated on a cost-recovery basis

and he had only annual sa lary contrac ts Over coffee he and Wayne whom Rich

met through extension work with the fish industry dreamed about way s of succeed ing

rather thanjust s urviving Then one day Wayne called to tell me about federal government money available for Canadian owned bus inesses to improvc technology

says Rich We bashed it about came up with ideas then su bmitted a proposal Lo and

behold-we got the grant hI recalls ith a lingering sense of amazement Then he adds considerably more soherly so now were

committed Tweedle-dum and Tweedle-dee the

partners are not Both are very aware of having

different personalities and backgrounds which complement each other Wayne is a self-made

businessman very practica l and pro gress ive he knew he didn t want to be a trout farm er all

hi s life Idon tknow much about business but I do have a solid sc ientific background

explains Rich Wayne s farm Shamrock prings as he

explain s it has hcen closely allied with University of G uelph scienti sts from it s inccption The farm was estahlished by six

facult y members from the University Professors Robbie Robinson OA 50 Mack Mc Dermott OAC 39 Professor Emeritus

George Anderson OAC 42 Marg Hauser OAC 46 John Carpent r OAC 43 and Bob Johnsto n OAC 42 Wayne says All have

hiology or aquaculture expertise In 1970 they hired me as hatche ry manager and then in 1978 ga ve me the chance to purchase the e ntirc

o peratio n which I did

Between 1977 and 19lO the farm quadrupled it s gross re venue Uvcr the years

Way ne had developed new tcc hniyucs in egg handling sw im-up and fry feeding and

movement and grading of stock But he needed morc mo ney and help for more major undertakings

Now with only a year under the ir belts

the Shamrock Springs gro up has carried out a tho ro ugh literature review constructed a laboratory des igned equipment and carried out

numerous experiments and s tudies Hormone injections en vironmental

alterations and sperm studies are some of the

research projects directed towards manipulating reproducti on which are now being carried out at the farm and at the University of Guelph

On campus Professor Leatherland is

collaborating with the group to measure

hormone levels in fi sh Dr Craig and Professo r Hallett have adapted Quas i-Elastic Light Scattering (QELS) techniques to fish sperm

examination Thi s joint re search program focu ses on correlating QELS mea surements of sperm activity with fertilization efficiency

Since it is more efficient to co ntrol

reproduction in the female only and to use preserved semen for fertilization we are studying various aspects of fish sperm explains Rich In the work with C ra ig and

Hall ett for example if we can elucidate the relationship between QELS sperm activity and tertility then we intend to use the technique to

assess the adequac y of storage conditions Altering the environment is another way

of controlling fertility so a t the farm the group has designed and is building eight ho lding

Transferring medica l technology to his

projec ts Rich has recently deve loped a method to observe and photograph fi sh go nads within the living fish by using a fine needle-like

de vice tipped with a lens called an endosco pe Gonadal ohservation he explains is necessary to assess the effects of chemical or

environmental changes upon reproduction W ith so much time money and sheer

energy expended what if the project fails or only faintl y ucceed ~ When asked this

qucstion Rich pauses for only a moment Im doing the best I can he asse rts gravely T hen with a smile and a shrug he says But if it doesn t work out I can always try something else

AMF Funds Return Rare 17th Century Canadian Art

I n 1982 the Macdonald Stewart Art Centre

Canadian history and art history The pie ce is

described by W ~vlcAllister Johnson O c an

authority on European and early Canadian

prints as fo llows Gregoire Huret was

res ponsible for the single most significant

most remembered ima ge of early Canada- the

martyrdom of the Jesuit Fathers in 1649 The Huret print dated 1656 is based on

eye-witness accounts of the martyrdom of

Jes uit mi ssionaries in Huronia 1630-1 649

By makin g a substantial partial payment to

the owner of the print a dealer in England the

Art Centre was able to obtain it against strong

co mpetition lo r the University co llec tion

Impressions of the eng raving are unavailable in

This profile of Shirley Punch Petershyson Co-ordinator Womens Intershycollegiate Programs Department of Athshyletics was prepared before news of a proposed roasting of that lady arrived at the editors desk The roasting took place on campus in Creelman Hall on Saturday March 19 with close to 150 associates in attendance

No punches were pulled skeleshytons were dragged out of dosets the ex pose was very thorough but is not reraquoOlmiddotted here - for any number of very good reasons

What follows is the in-depth side of Shirley Peterson as seen by Department of Info rmation writer John Hearn The photographs silently report the roast

By John H earn

O nly during the last ten years or so have

women athletes been enc o uraged to take

themse lves seriously Before then some

womens inter-collegIate events were simply

labelled playdays Girls in Ontario who

wanted to play hockey made headlines by

trying 10 crash bo ys teams they used their

brothers skates or kept their own through

three s izes Women have come a long way s ince then

e specially at the Univers it y of Guelph where

much of the credit mu st go to Shirley Peterson

Co-ordinator Wome ns Intercollegiate

Program Department o f Athl e tics Shirle y was

working to change the status of women athletes

at Guelph long before it became a uni ve rs ity

before some of o ur present students were born

Today she radiates such youthfulness and

vitality that it s hard to believe that she was

already the mo ther of fi ve when she first came

to the campus in 1961 She started with a

part-time job on the front desk at the Athletics

Ce ntre but it was not lo ng hefore she was

involved in a wide range of o ther activ ities She

explains [ used to tra vel with any of the teams that

lacked a faculty ad visor-o ne of thcm was the

archery team and it wasrit long befo re [ was

coaching archery I had played hockey for four

years back in Teulo n Ma nitoba and that led to

my becoming head coach for the hoc ke y team

When Can-Am started a womens hoc key

sc hool at the Univers ity I rail that for ten years

I had also curled in Manitoba so I coac hed o ur

curling team as well

It may sound like a lo t it was but in

those days there was no other way Women

with sports experience were few and far between and anyone who knew what they were

doing was pretty well bound to get the opportunity

Opportunity ca me in 1967 when co- ordina tor Eve lyn Bird moved to the

De partment of Human Kinetics a nd Shirley took her place

Right from the beginning Shirleys

number one objective was to c hange bo th the

status and the image of women a thletes-the

way they were regarded and the way they

regarded them sel ves For example s he had no

time for the mac ho image that some women

hockey players liked to cultivate-dress ing

ta lking and trying to play lik e men

Weve come a long way since then As

women achieved m ore s ucces s in athle ti cs they

found it less neces sary to imitate men They

di scovered that it was poss ible to be them se lves

and sti ll be winners Back when they felt or

were made to feel inferior they tried to

co mpe nsate by be ing as masc uline as po ss ible

-the back of which is something Im vely glad to ha ve see n

Standards kept improving all thro ugh the

70s High schools acquired beller coaches

there are now provine ial and national tea ms for

women womens s ports are draw ing ever more

spectators and women athletes are committed

as they never were before

There are no playdays any more You

dont practice fo ur or five times a week and go

on the road and keep up a games sc hed ule o n

topo f the whole academic work load unless you

mean business Its like ha vi ng two full-time

Jobs When youre going after natio nal

championships in basketball volleyball skiin g field hockey swimming ice hockey or

base ball you have to be dedLcated The

semester sys tem doesnt make things any

easier Athletes at the Univers ity o f Guelph

women o r men have to be very well organi zed

and they ha ve to give up a lo t o f other things There are now about 200 women invol ved

in inter-co ll egiate athletics at the U ni vers ity

plu s one of the bigges t intra-mural participati o n

rates of any uni vers ity in Canada-at lea st 150

volleyball team s and o ver 100 hockey teams

The pro blems no lo nger lie in the areas

of status ability or participation The bes t of

our energies are now going into figurin g out how to make the best use of badly o verstrained

facilities Everything is going continuously and cOllld Oler

13

things break down all the time We can only

keep this up for so long One day everythings

going to go ker-plop

The strain is inevitable given a facility

built back in the 1950s at a time when the entire

student body numbered no more than 1500

Today it s 12 000

Connicting claims on re sources are not

resolved in terms of women athletes versus men

athletes but strictly in terms of what the

various teams actually need-in ice time or

anything else

Cutbacks affect us all Of course the

women need more but the men need more too

We just have to be innovative When the

hockey team wanted to go to McGill University

they organized a skate-a-thon and raised

$ 1300 for the trip Before the basketball team

went to Hawaii they had to work for four years

operating concessions at the men s games

collecting pop bottles and that kind of thing

The field hockey team did the same thing when

they had their eyes on Barbados

Recruiting becomes ever more important

[t take s very good athletes to meet today s

competitive standards They have to be

skimmed off at the high school level and

Shirley s coaches will go anywhere in Ontario

to offer the University of Guelph program to

promising young athletes male or female

Its not easy We have no scholarships to

offer and were up against western provincial

governments who will give up to $1 000 to

each athlete on a Canadian Inter-varsity

Athletic s Union team Its even tougher

competing with US universities that offerfull

scholarships We had a camp for basketball last

year and out of seven top-calibre girls only

one stayed in Ontario Happily were getting more and more

help from alumni especially those who are

involved in sports as coaches managers or

players They either do a good selling job

themselves or they tip us off when they run into

an oustanding girl And we want them badly

Lets face it having outstanding athletes helps

raise the profile of the Universi ty as a whole

Media coverage of national events helps to

keep the University before the public

Despite the difficulties University of

Guelph women are doing very well The

basketball team has gone to the Nationals four

times in six years since Karen Lee became

coach The field hockey team is right up there

Shirley landed six ice hockey championships

while she was coaching and Sue Scherer s team

is among the best in the co untry AI

Fairweather CBS 75 aquatics program

supervisor has a number of national winners

and Sandra Hart head coach of womens

volleyball is making great strides

Any team playing against Guelph knows

in advance that theyre going to have to work

very hard indeed Individuals Well theres

Linda Kasienko a member of the Canadian

Archery Team at the 1982 Commonwealth

Games in Australia and a front runner for the

Los Angeles Olympics Theres Candy Lohr a

national basketball player and Sue Scherer

one of the best female hoc key players in

Canada and a member of the national baseball team

Shirley Peterson sees little point in playing

except to win This is the philosophy which she

has persistently expounded to a whole

generation of athletes Whatever it is if youre

going to do something do it well or dont

bother Second best Who needs it And in

Shirleys philosophy this doesnt only apply to

sports but to everything else you do its as true

of sewing and cooking as it is ofbasketbmiddotall and

hockey

I guess I ve always been competitive in

life as well as in sports but when I say

competitive Im really talking about caring

enough about something - any thing-so that

you give it your best What satisfaction is there

in defeating a seco nd-rate team Its far more

rewarding to play against a first-class teamshy

and beat them I attach a lot of importance to the

competitive spirit It may be true that we ca nt

all be winners but if I m not a winner [ m goi ng

to do something about it Im not going to stay down there too long r sincerely believe that

anyone who wants to be a winner badly enough

to accept the di sciplines of work can make it

Obviously a young woman coming into a spon

at the age of 18 is going to find it virtually

impossible to ca tch up with someone who s

been playing that game seriously since she was

eight- but she can sti ll go a long way We have

many women like that and Im proud of

them

If theres one thing Shirley Peterson likes

better than winning its motivating others to

win And she tru sts people both her athletes

and her staff She te lls them right at the

beginning what is expected of them adding If you need any help Im here She puts

them in command People like being in

command

Maybe that s a good note to end onshy

Gryphon Club CalDpaign Successful

In 1982

By Dick Freeman Promotions Manager D epartme nt of Athl etics

A lthough the Gryphon Club i~ a relative neWlomcr to the Univasity s Annu al

Alma Mater Fund the concept of alumn i and friends supporting athletic s at the Uni versit y can be well doc umented

One need look no further th an Power Hou se Lane where ye ars of generous support appear in the visage of Alumni Stad ium and just thi s past year the Alm a Mater Fund Advisory Council allocated in excess of $20000 to acquire a CYBEX rehabilitation unit Countless athletes have benefitted from this piece of equipment that assists in the diagnosis and evaluation of limb injuries

The Gry phon Club has just completed its fourth year of operat ion and is proud to boas t an all-time high in interest The Club was formed in 1979 through the combined efforts of then Department of Athletics director Gib Chapman former Department director Bill Mitchell OAC 38 Shirley Peterson co-ordinator of the Women s Intercollegiate Program and wrestling coach Londo Iacovelli They were respon sible for co llecting data on former Gryphons Aggies and Redme n

The main initial concern was to establish a direct I ine of communication between the University and former athletes and friends of University athletics and the formati ve months were spent establishing an information bank Fonner football Gryphon Peter John so n HAFA 76 and Doug Taylor OAC 70 served as chair and vice and helped guide the organization

In the fall of 19R2 Dave Copp was appointed director of the Department of Athletics and con tinued the work of refin ing the Club s operat ion and its objectives The newly elected ex ecut ive which includes co-chairman and former hockey Gryphon Kim Mil es CBS 76 form er Wildman Troph y winner Tom Arnott CBS 80 staff co-ordi nato rs Dick Freeman and Bud Folusewych CSS 71 and member-at-large I-rank Abbey OAC 72 is husy preparing for the 1983 fund rai si ng campai gn in co-operation with the Depar tment (l f Alumni Affairs and Deve lopment

In 19R2 the campaign theme Double Up to Catch Up is (lOW history as arc the res ults The $8000 Fund target was achieved

but more important was the impact on Club projects A hockey alumni go lf tourn ament in June was an ove rwhel min g success- shynumerically if not esthetically- and the Homecom in g 82 football game was equally well attended Bonds of fellowship were renewed and yarns of al most forgonen escapades were Joyously recounted A natural ex tension of this feel ing was obvious in the 1982 membership campaign

A CryoTemp cold-press ure therapy unit was purchased from the in itial campaign funds This unit dramatically speeds recovery and s ignifican tly reduces pain and discomfort in treating arm and leg injuries One need only spend a few moments in the Alumni Stadium treatment room to witness the value of this eq uipment in helping injured Gryph ons back to the line-up

Specific sports projects were high lighted in the 1982 season The hockey projec t was the purchase of new Flak protecti ve equipment and uniforms Over $2500 was allocated to this project with fantastic results The new protective equipment has witnessed the most injury-free season in recent hist ory and allowed our athletes the extra protection an d versatility characeristic of the eq uipment

Our foot ball program benefitted from the use of two Kodak Anal yst Projectors purchased with funds allocated to the Gryphon Club from the Alma Mater Fund Coaches and players

alike can now spend more time anal ysing game films refining techniques and preparing for op pone nts A late campaign addition was a wrestling projec t to purchase wrestling mats With do nations Just beginning over $1 000 of the $4000 project has been realized

The over whelming participation by former athletes and current friends of the Gryphons is much apprecia ted by current University of Guelph flag bearers says hoc ke y captain Ray Irwin It really makes us pro ud to wear the Red and Gold Irw in a prime cand id ate for Canada s 1984 Olympic team has perso nal ly written to those who contributed to the hockey project I want them to reali ze how important it is to each of us to

benefit from their generosi ty Helpin g each othe r-thats what it s all

about The Gryphon Club is concerned with people helping to organ ize people to help people A new thrust that will be introduced during the 1983 campaign will be the offer of co rporate memberships in the Direc tors Club category Already four bus inesses have joined the $250 grouping led by the inaugural member - the Uni vers ity Centre Administration under the direction of Ron Collins

The 1983 campaign will ki ck off in April Although no theme is yet in place the 1983 executive committee echoes Ray Irwin s thoughts- Thank you for caring and sharing -in every sensei 0

From The

D ean During the ten years that [ have been in the

Deans Office many former stude nt s and

friends o f the College have contributed

interesting and valuab[e historical items for

safekeeping in the OAC archives It was during our Centennial Year [974 that 1 firs t heard a bout one of the more innovative

of early student projects - the OAC

Cosmopolitan Club Waldo Arbuthnot 32 brought two

lithographs to my office th at he had been holding in pro tective custody for 46

years These pictures had been in the

Cosmopolitan Club and later in the orig inal

John ston Hall but had been removed for safekeepin g by W al do Arbuthnot and

so me of his classmates sometime during the

192829 sc hool year during the time that the old Johns ton Hal[ was being wrecked

These pictures are now part of the Uni vershy

s ity of Guelph Art Co llec tion

I next heard about the Cos mopolita n Club in 1979 from the late Clarence Hand 25 who recalled utilizing the club in 1922

He mentioned tha t Mr and Mrs James

Slinger lived in the club a t that time and that Mrs Slinger would when requested preshy

pare s nacks fo r the students Jim Slinger was a herdsman at the OAC and the

grandfather of Stan 37 John (Jake) Do n 50 Edna Alice Mac 48 George Bo b

and El s ie A few weeks ago retired Professor

Charles G Way well the present owner o f

the ho use that was formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Ciub visited me to present

the College with the brass nameplate picshytured rig ht He had located this namepl ate in the base ment of the ho use and indicated

his wish that it be reta ined by the Ontari o

Agric ultural College Following his v is it I decided that I

sho uld attempt to find o ut some thing more

about the origins and the ac ti vi ti es of th e

Club as [ felt that others might share my

interest in thi s bit ofOAC hi story Thank s to the help of se ve ra l people including Fred

Presant 23 Alan Darlington 83 Jake

Slin ger and Nancy Sadek of the

Uni ve rsity S Library I have been able to put together the fo llowi ng brief history

The students Cos mopo lit an Club of

the Ontario Agricultural Co ll ege me t for the

fir s t time in Octobe r 1910 in the Massey

Library The objectives of the Club were to promo te a better understa ndin g o f the

political economic and literary problems of different countrie s and to culti vate soc ial

inte rcourse among the st udents of different

na tio nalities of the College and thereby to foster the spirit of uni versal brotherhood

The Club was incorporated by letters patent

issued by the Government of Ontari o

January 28 1911 In December 1910 the Club consistshy

ing of about 60 members rented a house at 21 Forbes Avenue The members at that

time were from 16 different countries and included 34 s tudents and 26 others - some

faculty a nd intere sted Guelph ci tizens In the Spring of 1911 the much larger Baldshy

win House at 59 Dundas Road now the

Way well home was Ieased In addition to providing a soc ial club

the Cosmopolitan Club was ac tive in promshyoting student d a nces and smokers The

complaints th at the cost of te xtbooks was

Pres ident of the Club until he left the OAC

in 1920 By 1922 the Club was in financial diffi culties and facu Ity members of the OA C

were approached for help Al so in an effort

to offset these problems beds were offered

to transient vi s itors to the College for 25

cents per ni ght However all efforts failed

and the Club was fo rced to c lose with the last meeting he ld in Nove mber 28 1923

Fred Presa nt offered many interesting reco llectio ns of his s tudent days when he

utilized the facilities of the Club He recalled playing bridge with Pres ident

Reynold s including the fact th a t Dr Rey nolds constantly berated him for overshy

bidding hi s hand He menti oned that the international s tudents who utilized the Club

mostly Ii ved in rented rooms in hou ses near St Ge orge s Anglican Church but made

use of the Club almost daily and meetingshyroom facilities - as well as Mrs Slingers

This profile of Shirley Punch Petershyson Co-ordinator Womens Intershycollegiate Programs Department of Athshyletics was prepared before news of a proposed roasting of that lady arrived at the editors desk The roasting took place on campus in Creelman Hall on Saturday March 19 with close to 150 associates in attendance

No punches were pulled skeleshytons were dragged out of dosets the ex pose was very thorough but is not reraquoOlmiddotted here - for any number of very good reasons

What follows is the in-depth side of Shirley Peterson as seen by Department of Info rmation writer John Hearn The photographs silently report the roast

By John H earn

O nly during the last ten years or so have

women athletes been enc o uraged to take

themse lves seriously Before then some

womens inter-collegIate events were simply

labelled playdays Girls in Ontario who

wanted to play hockey made headlines by

trying 10 crash bo ys teams they used their

brothers skates or kept their own through

three s izes Women have come a long way s ince then

e specially at the Univers it y of Guelph where

much of the credit mu st go to Shirley Peterson

Co-ordinator Wome ns Intercollegiate

Program Department o f Athl e tics Shirle y was

working to change the status of women athletes

at Guelph long before it became a uni ve rs ity

before some of o ur present students were born

Today she radiates such youthfulness and

vitality that it s hard to believe that she was

already the mo ther of fi ve when she first came

to the campus in 1961 She started with a

part-time job on the front desk at the Athletics

Ce ntre but it was not lo ng hefore she was

Programs DepUrillH1I 1ofAlhlclics

involved in a wide range of o ther activ ities She

explains [ used to tra vel with any of the teams that

lacked a faculty ad visor-o ne of thcm was the

archery team and it wasrit long befo re [ was

coaching archery I had played hockey for four

years back in Teulo n Ma nitoba and that led to

my becoming head coach for the hoc ke y team

When Can-Am started a womens hoc key

sc hool at the Univers ity I rail that for ten years

I had also curled in Manitoba so I coac hed o ur

curling team as well

It may sound like a lo t it was but in

those days there was no other way Women

with sports experience were few and far between and anyone who knew what they were

doing was pretty well bound to get the opportunity

Opportunity ca me in 1967 when co- ordina tor Eve lyn Bird moved to the

De partment of Human Kinetics a nd Shirley took her place

Right from the beginning Shirleys

number one objective was to c hange bo th the

status and the image of women a thletes-the

way they were regarded and the way they

regarded them sel ves For example s he had no

time for the mac ho image that some women

hockey players liked to cultivate-dress ing

ta lking and trying to play lik e men

Weve come a long way since then As

women achieved m ore s ucces s in athle ti cs they

found it less neces sary to imitate men They

di scovered that it was poss ible to be them se lves

and sti ll be winners Back when they felt or

were made to feel inferior they tried to

co mpe nsate by be ing as masc uline as po ss ible

-the back of which is something Im vely glad to ha ve see n

Standards kept improving all thro ugh the

70s High schools acquired beller coaches

there are now provine ial and national tea ms for

women womens s ports are draw ing ever more

spectators and women athletes are committed

as they never were before

There are no playdays any more You

dont practice fo ur or five times a week and go

on the road and keep up a games sc hed ule o n

topo f the whole academic work load unless you

mean business Its like ha vi ng two full-time

Jobs When youre going after natio nal

championships in basketball volleyball skiin g field hockey swimming ice hockey or

base ball you have to be dedLcated The

semester sys tem doesnt make things any

easier Athletes at the Univers ity o f Guelph

women o r men have to be very well organi zed

and they ha ve to give up a lo t o f other things There are now about 200 women invol ved

in inter-co ll egiate athletics at the U ni vers ity

plu s one of the bigges t intra-mural participati o n

rates of any uni vers ity in Canada-at lea st 150

volleyball team s and o ver 100 hockey teams

The pro blems no lo nger lie in the areas

of status ability or participation The bes t of

our energies are now going into figurin g out how to make the best use of badly o verstrained

facilities Everything is going continuously and cOllld Oler

13

things break down all the time We can only

keep this up for so long One day everythings

going to go ker-plop

The strain is inevitable given a facility

built back in the 1950s at a time when the entire

student body numbered no more than 1500

Today it s 12 000

Connicting claims on re sources are not

resolved in terms of women athletes versus men

athletes but strictly in terms of what the

various teams actually need-in ice time or

anything else

Cutbacks affect us all Of course the

women need more but the men need more too

We just have to be innovative When the

hockey team wanted to go to McGill University

they organized a skate-a-thon and raised

$ 1300 for the trip Before the basketball team

went to Hawaii they had to work for four years

operating concessions at the men s games

collecting pop bottles and that kind of thing

The field hockey team did the same thing when

they had their eyes on Barbados

Recruiting becomes ever more important

[t take s very good athletes to meet today s

competitive standards They have to be

skimmed off at the high school level and

Shirley s coaches will go anywhere in Ontario

to offer the University of Guelph program to

promising young athletes male or female

Its not easy We have no scholarships to

offer and were up against western provincial

governments who will give up to $1 000 to

each athlete on a Canadian Inter-varsity

Athletic s Union team Its even tougher

competing with US universities that offerfull

scholarships We had a camp for basketball last

year and out of seven top-calibre girls only

one stayed in Ontario Happily were getting more and more

help from alumni especially those who are

involved in sports as coaches managers or

players They either do a good selling job

themselves or they tip us off when they run into

an oustanding girl And we want them badly

Lets face it having outstanding athletes helps

raise the profile of the Universi ty as a whole

Media coverage of national events helps to

keep the University before the public

Despite the difficulties University of

Guelph women are doing very well The

basketball team has gone to the Nationals four

times in six years since Karen Lee became

coach The field hockey team is right up there

Shirley landed six ice hockey championships

while she was coaching and Sue Scherer s team

is among the best in the co untry AI

Fairweather CBS 75 aquatics program

supervisor has a number of national winners

and Sandra Hart head coach of womens

volleyball is making great strides

Any team playing against Guelph knows

in advance that theyre going to have to work

very hard indeed Individuals Well theres

Linda Kasienko a member of the Canadian

Archery Team at the 1982 Commonwealth

Games in Australia and a front runner for the

Los Angeles Olympics Theres Candy Lohr a

national basketball player and Sue Scherer

one of the best female hoc key players in

Canada and a member of the national baseball team

Shirley Peterson sees little point in playing

except to win This is the philosophy which she

has persistently expounded to a whole

generation of athletes Whatever it is if youre

There (1 (I

going to do something do it well or dont

bother Second best Who needs it And in

Shirleys philosophy this doesnt only apply to

sports but to everything else you do its as true

of sewing and cooking as it is ofbasketbmiddotall and

hockey

I guess I ve always been competitive in

life as well as in sports but when I say

competitive Im really talking about caring

enough about something - any thing-so that

you give it your best What satisfaction is there

in defeating a seco nd-rate team Its far more

rewarding to play against a first-class teamshy

and beat them I attach a lot of importance to the

competitive spirit It may be true that we ca nt

all be winners but if I m not a winner [ m goi ng

to do something about it Im not going to stay down there too long r sincerely believe that

anyone who wants to be a winner badly enough

to accept the di sciplines of work can make it

Obviously a young woman coming into a spon

at the age of 18 is going to find it virtually

impossible to ca tch up with someone who s

been playing that game seriously since she was

eight- but she can sti ll go a long way We have

many women like that and Im proud of

them

If theres one thing Shirley Peterson likes

better than winning its motivating others to

win And she tru sts people both her athletes

and her staff She te lls them right at the

beginning what is expected of them adding If you need any help Im here She puts

them in command People like being in

command

Maybe that s a good note to end onshy

Shirley Pe terson in si x words or less- If you

Gryphon Club CalDpaign Successful

In 1982

By Dick Freeman Promotions Manager D epartme nt of Athl etics

A lthough the Gryphon Club i~ a relative neWlomcr to the Univasity s Annu al

Alma Mater Fund the concept of alumn i and friends supporting athletic s at the Uni versit y can be well doc umented

One need look no further th an Power Hou se Lane where ye ars of generous support appear in the visage of Alumni Stad ium and just thi s past year the Alm a Mater Fund Advisory Council allocated in excess of $20000 to acquire a CYBEX rehabilitation unit Countless athletes have benefitted from this piece of equipment that assists in the diagnosis and evaluation of limb injuries

The Gry phon Club has just completed its fourth year of operat ion and is proud to boas t an all-time high in interest The Club was formed in 1979 through the combined efforts of then Department of Athletics director Gib Chapman former Department director Bill Mitchell OAC 38 Shirley Peterson co-ordinator of the Women s Intercollegiate Program and wrestling coach Londo Iacovelli They were respon sible for co llecting data on former Gryphons Aggies and Redme n

The main initial concern was to establish a direct I ine of communication between the University and former athletes and friends of University athletics and the formati ve months were spent establishing an information bank Fonner football Gryphon Peter John so n HAFA 76 and Doug Taylor OAC 70 served as chair and vice and helped guide the organization

In the fall of 19R2 Dave Copp was appointed director of the Department of Athletics and con tinued the work of refin ing the Club s operat ion and its objectives The newly elected ex ecut ive which includes co-chairman and former hockey Gryphon Kim Mil es CBS 76 form er Wildman Troph y winner Tom Arnott CBS 80 staff co-ordi nato rs Dick Freeman and Bud Folusewych CSS 71 and member-at-large I-rank Abbey OAC 72 is husy preparing for the 1983 fund rai si ng campai gn in co-operation with the Depar tment (l f Alumni Affairs and Deve lopment

In 19R2 the campaign theme Double Up to Catch Up is (lOW history as arc the res ults The $8000 Fund target was achieved

but more important was the impact on Club projects A hockey alumni go lf tourn ament in June was an ove rwhel min g success- shynumerically if not esthetically- and the Homecom in g 82 football game was equally well attended Bonds of fellowship were renewed and yarns of al most forgonen escapades were Joyously recounted A natural ex tension of this feel ing was obvious in the 1982 membership campaign

A CryoTemp cold-press ure therapy unit was purchased from the in itial campaign funds This unit dramatically speeds recovery and s ignifican tly reduces pain and discomfort in treating arm and leg injuries One need only spend a few moments in the Alumni Stadium treatment room to witness the value of this eq uipment in helping injured Gryph ons back to the line-up

Specific sports projects were high lighted in the 1982 season The hockey projec t was the purchase of new Flak protecti ve equipment and uniforms Over $2500 was allocated to this project with fantastic results The new protective equipment has witnessed the most injury-free season in recent hist ory and allowed our athletes the extra protection an d versatility characeristic of the eq uipment

Our foot ball program benefitted from the use of two Kodak Anal yst Projectors purchased with funds allocated to the Gryphon Club from the Alma Mater Fund Coaches and players

alike can now spend more time anal ysing game films refining techniques and preparing for op pone nts A late campaign addition was a wrestling projec t to purchase wrestling mats With do nations Just beginning over $1 000 of the $4000 project has been realized

The over whelming participation by former athletes and current friends of the Gryphons is much apprecia ted by current University of Guelph flag bearers says hoc ke y captain Ray Irwin It really makes us pro ud to wear the Red and Gold Irw in a prime cand id ate for Canada s 1984 Olympic team has perso nal ly written to those who contributed to the hockey project I want them to reali ze how important it is to each of us to

benefit from their generosi ty Helpin g each othe r-thats what it s all

about The Gryphon Club is concerned with people helping to organ ize people to help people A new thrust that will be introduced during the 1983 campaign will be the offer of co rporate memberships in the Direc tors Club category Already four bus inesses have joined the $250 grouping led by the inaugural member - the Uni vers ity Centre Administration under the direction of Ron Collins

The 1983 campaign will ki ck off in April Although no theme is yet in place the 1983 executive committee echoes Ray Irwin s thoughts- Thank you for caring and sharing -in every sensei 0

ALUMNI NEWS Editor Dr Harvey W Caldwell S1

Dr Clulotl Swilzr 5 1

From The

D ean During the ten years that [ have been in the

Deans Office many former stude nt s and

friends o f the College have contributed

interesting and valuab[e historical items for

safekeeping in the OAC archives It was during our Centennial Year [974 that 1 firs t heard a bout one of the more innovative

of early student projects - the OAC

Cosmopolitan Club Waldo Arbuthnot 32 brought two

lithographs to my office th at he had been holding in pro tective custody for 46

years These pictures had been in the

Cosmopolitan Club and later in the orig inal

John ston Hall but had been removed for safekeepin g by W al do Arbuthnot and

so me of his classmates sometime during the

192829 sc hool year during the time that the old Johns ton Hal[ was being wrecked

These pictures are now part of the Uni vershy

s ity of Guelph Art Co llec tion

I next heard about the Cos mopolita n Club in 1979 from the late Clarence Hand 25 who recalled utilizing the club in 1922

He mentioned tha t Mr and Mrs James

Slinger lived in the club a t that time and that Mrs Slinger would when requested preshy

pare s nacks fo r the students Jim Slinger was a herdsman at the OAC and the

grandfather of Stan 37 John (Jake) Do n 50 Edna Alice Mac 48 George Bo b

and El s ie A few weeks ago retired Professor

Charles G Way well the present owner o f

the ho use that was formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Ciub visited me to present

the College with the brass nameplate picshytured rig ht He had located this namepl ate in the base ment of the ho use and indicated

his wish that it be reta ined by the Ontari o

Agric ultural College Following his v is it I decided that I

sho uld attempt to find o ut some thing more

about the origins and the ac ti vi ti es of th e

Club as [ felt that others might share my

interest in thi s bit ofOAC hi story Thank s to the help of se ve ra l people including Fred

Presant 23 Alan Darlington 83 Jake

Slin ger and Nancy Sadek of the

Uni ve rsity S Library I have been able to put together the fo llowi ng brief history

The students Cos mopo lit an Club of

the Ontario Agricultural Co ll ege me t for the

fir s t time in Octobe r 1910 in the Massey

Library The objectives of the Club were to promo te a better understa ndin g o f the

political economic and literary problems of different countrie s and to culti vate soc ial

inte rcourse among the st udents of different

na tio nalities of the College and thereby to foster the spirit of uni versal brotherhood

The Club was incorporated by letters patent

issued by the Government of Ontari o

January 28 1911 In December 1910 the Club consistshy

ing of about 60 members rented a house at 21 Forbes Avenue The members at that

time were from 16 different countries and included 34 s tudents and 26 others - some

faculty a nd intere sted Guelph ci tizens In the Spring of 1911 the much larger Baldshy

win House at 59 Dundas Road now the

Way well home was Ieased In addition to providing a soc ial club

the Cosmopolitan Club was ac tive in promshyoting student d a nces and smokers The

Club also initi a ted the first co-op on

cam pus to pro vide textboo ks and o the r items for students This ac tivity was quesshy

tio ned in a le tte r from the Deputy Mini ster

of Agric ulture to Pres ident Creelman in M arch 191 2 ev idently beca use of students

complaints th at the cost of te xtbooks was

o nl y five cents less than the regular price Pres ident Creelma n was Honorary

Pres ident of the Club until he left the OAC

in 1920 By 1922 the Club was in financial diffi culties and facu Ity members of the OA C

were approached for help Al so in an effort

to offset these problems beds were offered

to transient vi s itors to the College for 25

cents per ni ght However all efforts failed

and the Club was fo rced to c lose with the last meeting he ld in Nove mber 28 1923

Fred Presa nt offered many interesting reco llectio ns of his s tudent days when he

utilized the facilities of the Club He recalled playing bridge with Pres ident

Reynold s including the fact th a t Dr Rey nolds constantly berated him for overshy

bidding hi s hand He menti oned that the international s tudents who utilized the Club

mostly Ii ved in rented rooms in hou ses near St Ge orge s Anglican Church but made

use of the Club almost daily and meetingshyroom facilities - as well as Mrs Slingers

snacks Following the demise of the Cosshy

mopolitan Club the house in which it

operated was bought by the late Professor Jack Baker II former head of the

Department of Entomology He in turn

things break down all the time We can only

keep this up for so long One day everythings

going to go ker-plop

The strain is inevitable given a facility

built back in the 1950s at a time when the entire

student body numbered no more than 1500

Today it s 12 000

Connicting claims on re sources are not

resolved in terms of women athletes versus men

athletes but strictly in terms of what the

various teams actually need-in ice time or

anything else

Cutbacks affect us all Of course the

women need more but the men need more too

We just have to be innovative When the

hockey team wanted to go to McGill University

they organized a skate-a-thon and raised

$ 1300 for the trip Before the basketball team

went to Hawaii they had to work for four years

operating concessions at the men s games

collecting pop bottles and that kind of thing

The field hockey team did the same thing when

they had their eyes on Barbados

Recruiting becomes ever more important

[t take s very good athletes to meet today s

competitive standards They have to be

skimmed off at the high school level and

Shirley s coaches will go anywhere in Ontario

to offer the University of Guelph program to

promising young athletes male or female

Its not easy We have no scholarships to

offer and were up against western provincial

governments who will give up to $1 000 to

each athlete on a Canadian Inter-varsity

Athletic s Union team Its even tougher

competing with US universities that offerfull

scholarships We had a camp for basketball last

year and out of seven top-calibre girls only

one stayed in Ontario Happily were getting more and more

help from alumni especially those who are

involved in sports as coaches managers or

players They either do a good selling job

themselves or they tip us off when they run into

an oustanding girl And we want them badly

Lets face it having outstanding athletes helps

raise the profile of the Universi ty as a whole

Media coverage of national events helps to

keep the University before the public

Despite the difficulties University of

Guelph women are doing very well The

basketball team has gone to the Nationals four

times in six years since Karen Lee became

coach The field hockey team is right up there

Shirley landed six ice hockey championships

while she was coaching and Sue Scherer s team

is among the best in the co untry AI

Fairweather CBS 75 aquatics program

supervisor has a number of national winners

and Sandra Hart head coach of womens

volleyball is making great strides

Any team playing against Guelph knows

in advance that theyre going to have to work

very hard indeed Individuals Well theres

Linda Kasienko a member of the Canadian

Archery Team at the 1982 Commonwealth

Games in Australia and a front runner for the

Los Angeles Olympics Theres Candy Lohr a

national basketball player and Sue Scherer

one of the best female hoc key players in

Canada and a member of the national baseball team

Shirley Peterson sees little point in playing

except to win This is the philosophy which she

has persistently expounded to a whole

generation of athletes Whatever it is if youre

going to do something do it well or dont

bother Second best Who needs it And in

Shirleys philosophy this doesnt only apply to

sports but to everything else you do its as true

of sewing and cooking as it is ofbasketbmiddotall and

hockey

I guess I ve always been competitive in

life as well as in sports but when I say

competitive Im really talking about caring

enough about something - any thing-so that

you give it your best What satisfaction is there

in defeating a seco nd-rate team Its far more

rewarding to play against a first-class teamshy

and beat them I attach a lot of importance to the

competitive spirit It may be true that we ca nt

all be winners but if I m not a winner [ m goi ng

to do something about it Im not going to stay down there too long r sincerely believe that

anyone who wants to be a winner badly enough

to accept the di sciplines of work can make it

Obviously a young woman coming into a spon

at the age of 18 is going to find it virtually

impossible to ca tch up with someone who s

been playing that game seriously since she was

eight- but she can sti ll go a long way We have

many women like that and Im proud of

them

If theres one thing Shirley Peterson likes

better than winning its motivating others to

win And she tru sts people both her athletes

and her staff She te lls them right at the

beginning what is expected of them adding If you need any help Im here She puts

them in command People like being in

command

Maybe that s a good note to end onshy

Shirley Pe terson in si x words or less- If you

need he lp Im here Long may she be here at

Gryphon Club CalDpaign Successful

In 1982

By Dick Freeman Promotions Manager D epartme nt of Athl etics

A lthough the Gryphon Club i~ a relative neWlomcr to the Univasity s Annu al

Alma Mater Fund the concept of alumn i and friends supporting athletic s at the Uni versit y can be well doc umented

One need look no further th an Power Hou se Lane where ye ars of generous support appear in the visage of Alumni Stad ium and just thi s past year the Alm a Mater Fund Advisory Council allocated in excess of $20000 to acquire a CYBEX rehabilitation unit Countless athletes have benefitted from this piece of equipment that assists in the diagnosis and evaluation of limb injuries

The Gry phon Club has just completed its fourth year of operat ion and is proud to boas t an all-time high in interest The Club was formed in 1979 through the combined efforts of then Department of Athletics director Gib Chapman former Department director Bill Mitchell OAC 38 Shirley Peterson co-ordinator of the Women s Intercollegiate Program and wrestling coach Londo Iacovelli They were respon sible for co llecting data on former Gryphons Aggies and Redme n

The main initial concern was to establish a direct I ine of communication between the University and former athletes and friends of University athletics and the formati ve months were spent establishing an information bank Fonner football Gryphon Peter John so n HAFA 76 and Doug Taylor OAC 70 served as chair and vice and helped guide the organization

In the fall of 19R2 Dave Copp was appointed director of the Department of Athletics and con tinued the work of refin ing the Club s operat ion and its objectives The newly elected ex ecut ive which includes co-chairman and former hockey Gryphon Kim Mil es CBS 76 form er Wildman Troph y winner Tom Arnott CBS 80 staff co-ordi nato rs Dick Freeman and Bud Folusewych CSS 71 and member-at-large I-rank Abbey OAC 72 is husy preparing for the 1983 fund rai si ng campai gn in co-operation with the Depar tment (l f Alumni Affairs and Deve lopment

In 19R2 the campaign theme Double Up to Catch Up is (lOW history as arc the res ults The $8000 Fund target was achieved

but more important was the impact on Club projects A hockey alumni go lf tourn ament in June was an ove rwhel min g success- shynumerically if not esthetically- and the Homecom in g 82 football game was equally well attended Bonds of fellowship were renewed and yarns of al most forgonen escapades were Joyously recounted A natural ex tension of this feel ing was obvious in the 1982 membership campaign

A CryoTemp cold-press ure therapy unit was purchased from the in itial campaign funds This unit dramatically speeds recovery and s ignifican tly reduces pain and discomfort in treating arm and leg injuries One need only spend a few moments in the Alumni Stadium treatment room to witness the value of this eq uipment in helping injured Gryph ons back to the line-up

Specific sports projects were high lighted in the 1982 season The hockey projec t was the purchase of new Flak protecti ve equipment and uniforms Over $2500 was allocated to this project with fantastic results The new protective equipment has witnessed the most injury-free season in recent hist ory and allowed our athletes the extra protection an d versatility characeristic of the eq uipment

Our foot ball program benefitted from the use of two Kodak Anal yst Projectors purchased with funds allocated to the Gryphon Club from the Alma Mater Fund Coaches and players

alike can now spend more time anal ysing game films refining techniques and preparing for op pone nts A late campaign addition was a wrestling projec t to purchase wrestling mats With do nations Just beginning over $1 000 of the $4000 project has been realized

The over whelming participation by former athletes and current friends of the Gryphons is much apprecia ted by current University of Guelph flag bearers says hoc ke y captain Ray Irwin It really makes us pro ud to wear the Red and Gold Irw in a prime cand id ate for Canada s 1984 Olympic team has perso nal ly written to those who contributed to the hockey project I want them to reali ze how important it is to each of us to

benefit from their generosi ty Helpin g each othe r-thats what it s all

about The Gryphon Club is concerned with people helping to organ ize people to help people A new thrust that will be introduced during the 1983 campaign will be the offer of co rporate memberships in the Direc tors Club category Already four bus inesses have joined the $250 grouping led by the inaugural member - the Uni vers ity Centre Administration under the direction of Ron Collins

The 1983 campaign will ki ck off in April Although no theme is yet in place the 1983 executive committee echoes Ray Irwin s thoughts- Thank you for caring and sharing -in every sensei 0

From The

D ean During the ten years that [ have been in the

Deans Office many former stude nt s and

friends o f the College have contributed

interesting and valuab[e historical items for

safekeeping in the OAC archives It was during our Centennial Year [974 that 1 firs t heard a bout one of the more innovative

of early student projects - the OAC

Cosmopolitan Club Waldo Arbuthnot 32 brought two

lithographs to my office th at he had been holding in pro tective custody for 46

years These pictures had been in the

Cosmopolitan Club and later in the orig inal

John ston Hall but had been removed for safekeepin g by W al do Arbuthnot and

so me of his classmates sometime during the

192829 sc hool year during the time that the old Johns ton Hal[ was being wrecked

These pictures are now part of the Uni vershy

s ity of Guelph Art Co llec tion

I next heard about the Cos mopolita n Club in 1979 from the late Clarence Hand 25 who recalled utilizing the club in 1922

He mentioned tha t Mr and Mrs James

Slinger lived in the club a t that time and that Mrs Slinger would when requested preshy

pare s nacks fo r the students Jim Slinger was a herdsman at the OAC and the

grandfather of Stan 37 John (Jake) Do n 50 Edna Alice Mac 48 George Bo b

and El s ie A few weeks ago retired Professor

Charles G Way well the present owner o f

the ho use that was formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Ciub visited me to present

the College with the brass nameplate picshytured rig ht He had located this namepl ate in the base ment of the ho use and indicated

his wish that it be reta ined by the Ontari o

Agric ultural College Following his v is it I decided that I

sho uld attempt to find o ut some thing more

about the origins and the ac ti vi ti es of th e

Club as [ felt that others might share my

interest in thi s bit ofOAC hi story Thank s to the help of se ve ra l people including Fred

Presant 23 Alan Darlington 83 Jake

Slin ger and Nancy Sadek of the

Uni ve rsity S Library I have been able to put together the fo llowi ng brief history

The students Cos mopo lit an Club of

the Ontario Agricultural Co ll ege me t for the

fir s t time in Octobe r 1910 in the Massey

Library The objectives of the Club were to promo te a better understa ndin g o f the

political economic and literary problems of different countrie s and to culti vate soc ial

inte rcourse among the st udents of different

na tio nalities of the College and thereby to foster the spirit of uni versal brotherhood

The Club was incorporated by letters patent

issued by the Government of Ontari o

January 28 1911 In December 1910 the Club consistshy

ing of about 60 members rented a house at 21 Forbes Avenue The members at that

time were from 16 different countries and included 34 s tudents and 26 others - some

faculty a nd intere sted Guelph ci tizens In the Spring of 1911 the much larger Baldshy

win House at 59 Dundas Road now the

Way well home was Ieased In addition to providing a soc ial club

the Cosmopolitan Club was ac tive in promshyoting student d a nces and smokers The

Club also initi a ted the first co-op on

cam pus to pro vide textboo ks and o the r items for students This ac tivity was quesshy

tio ned in a le tte r from the Deputy Mini ster

of Agric ulture to Pres ident Creelman in M arch 191 2 ev idently beca use of students

complaints th at the cost of te xtbooks was

o nl y five cents less than the regular price Pres ident Creelma n was Honorary

Pres ident of the Club until he left the OAC

in 1920 By 1922 the Club was in financial diffi culties and facu Ity members of the OA C

were approached for help Al so in an effort

to offset these problems beds were offered

to transient vi s itors to the College for 25

cents per ni ght However all efforts failed

and the Club was fo rced to c lose with the last meeting he ld in Nove mber 28 1923

Fred Presa nt offered many interesting reco llectio ns of his s tudent days when he

utilized the facilities of the Club He recalled playing bridge with Pres ident

Reynold s including the fact th a t Dr Rey nolds constantly berated him for overshy

bidding hi s hand He menti oned that the international s tudents who utilized the Club

mostly Ii ved in rented rooms in hou ses near St Ge orge s Anglican Church but made

use of the Club almost daily and meetingshyroom facilities - as well as Mrs Slingers

snacks Following the demise of the Cosshy

operated was bought by the late Professor Jack Baker II former head of the

Department of Entomology He in turn

Gryphon Club CalDpaign Successful

In 1982

By Dick Freeman Promotions Manager D epartme nt of Athl etics

A lthough the Gryphon Club i~ a relative neWlomcr to the Univasity s Annu al

Alma Mater Fund the concept of alumn i and friends supporting athletic s at the Uni versit y can be well doc umented

One need look no further th an Power Hou se Lane where ye ars of generous support appear in the visage of Alumni Stad ium and just thi s past year the Alm a Mater Fund Advisory Council allocated in excess of $20000 to acquire a CYBEX rehabilitation unit Countless athletes have benefitted from this piece of equipment that assists in the diagnosis and evaluation of limb injuries

The Gry phon Club has just completed its fourth year of operat ion and is proud to boas t an all-time high in interest The Club was formed in 1979 through the combined efforts of then Department of Athletics director Gib Chapman former Department director Bill Mitchell OAC 38 Shirley Peterson co-ordinator of the Women s Intercollegiate Program and wrestling coach Londo Iacovelli They were respon sible for co llecting data on former Gryphons Aggies and Redme n

The main initial concern was to establish a direct I ine of communication between the University and former athletes and friends of University athletics and the formati ve months were spent establishing an information bank Fonner football Gryphon Peter John so n HAFA 76 and Doug Taylor OAC 70 served as chair and vice and helped guide the organization

In the fall of 19R2 Dave Copp was appointed director of the Department of Athletics and con tinued the work of refin ing the Club s operat ion and its objectives The newly elected ex ecut ive which includes co-chairman and former hockey Gryphon Kim Mil es CBS 76 form er Wildman Troph y winner Tom Arnott CBS 80 staff co-ordi nato rs Dick Freeman and Bud Folusewych CSS 71 and member-at-large I-rank Abbey OAC 72 is husy preparing for the 1983 fund rai si ng campai gn in co-operation with the Depar tment (l f Alumni Affairs and Deve lopment

In 19R2 the campaign theme Double Up to Catch Up is (lOW history as arc the res ults The $8000 Fund target was achieved

but more important was the impact on Club projects A hockey alumni go lf tourn ament in June was an ove rwhel min g success- shynumerically if not esthetically- and the Homecom in g 82 football game was equally well attended Bonds of fellowship were renewed and yarns of al most forgonen escapades were Joyously recounted A natural ex tension of this feel ing was obvious in the 1982 membership campaign

A CryoTemp cold-press ure therapy unit was purchased from the in itial campaign funds This unit dramatically speeds recovery and s ignifican tly reduces pain and discomfort in treating arm and leg injuries One need only spend a few moments in the Alumni Stadium treatment room to witness the value of this eq uipment in helping injured Gryph ons back to the line-up

Specific sports projects were high lighted in the 1982 season The hockey projec t was the purchase of new Flak protecti ve equipment and uniforms Over $2500 was allocated to this project with fantastic results The new protective equipment has witnessed the most injury-free season in recent hist ory and allowed our athletes the extra protection an d versatility characeristic of the eq uipment

Our foot ball program benefitted from the use of two Kodak Anal yst Projectors purchased with funds allocated to the Gryphon Club from the Alma Mater Fund Coaches and players

ALUMNI NEWS Editor Dr Harvey W Caldwell S1

Dr Clulotl Swilzr 5 1

From The

D ean During the ten years that [ have been in the

Deans Office many former stude nt s and

friends o f the College have contributed

interesting and valuab[e historical items for

safekeeping in the OAC archives It was during our Centennial Year [974 that 1 firs t heard a bout one of the more innovative

of early student projects - the OAC

Cosmopolitan Club Waldo Arbuthnot 32 brought two

lithographs to my office th at he had been holding in pro tective custody for 46

years These pictures had been in the

Cosmopolitan Club and later in the orig inal

John ston Hall but had been removed for safekeepin g by W al do Arbuthnot and

so me of his classmates sometime during the

192829 sc hool year during the time that the old Johns ton Hal[ was being wrecked

These pictures are now part of the Uni vershy

s ity of Guelph Art Co llec tion

I next heard about the Cos mopolita n Club in 1979 from the late Clarence Hand 25 who recalled utilizing the club in 1922

He mentioned tha t Mr and Mrs James

Slinger lived in the club a t that time and that Mrs Slinger would when requested preshy

pare s nacks fo r the students Jim Slinger was a herdsman at the OAC and the

grandfather of Stan 37 John (Jake) Do n 50 Edna Alice Mac 48 George Bo b

and El s ie A few weeks ago retired Professor

Charles G Way well the present owner o f

the ho use that was formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Ciub visited me to present

the College with the brass nameplate picshytured rig ht He had located this namepl ate in the base ment of the ho use and indicated

his wish that it be reta ined by the Ontari o

Agric ultural College Following his v is it I decided that I

sho uld attempt to find o ut some thing more

about the origins and the ac ti vi ti es of th e

Club as [ felt that others might share my

interest in thi s bit ofOAC hi story Thank s to the help of se ve ra l people including Fred

Presant 23 Alan Darlington 83 Jake

Slin ger and Nancy Sadek of the

Uni ve rsity S Library I have been able to put together the fo llowi ng brief history

The students Cos mopo lit an Club of

the Ontario Agricultural Co ll ege me t for the

fir s t time in Octobe r 1910 in the Massey

Library The objectives of the Club were to promo te a better understa ndin g o f the

political economic and literary problems of different countrie s and to culti vate soc ial

inte rcourse among the st udents of different

na tio nalities of the College and thereby to foster the spirit of uni versal brotherhood

The Club was incorporated by letters patent

issued by the Government of Ontari o

January 28 1911 In December 1910 the Club consistshy

ing of about 60 members rented a house at 21 Forbes Avenue The members at that

time were from 16 different countries and included 34 s tudents and 26 others - some

faculty a nd intere sted Guelph ci tizens In the Spring of 1911 the much larger Baldshy

win House at 59 Dundas Road now the

Way well home was Ieased In addition to providing a soc ial club

the Cosmopolitan Club was ac tive in promshyoting student d a nces and smokers The

Club also initi a ted the first co-op on

cam pus to pro vide textboo ks and o the r items for students This ac tivity was quesshy

tio ned in a le tte r from the Deputy Mini ster

of Agric ulture to Pres ident Creelman in M arch 191 2 ev idently beca use of students

complaints th at the cost of te xtbooks was

o nl y five cents less than the regular price Pres ident Creelma n was Honorary

Pres ident of the Club until he left the OAC

in 1920 By 1922 the Club was in financial diffi culties and facu Ity members of the OA C

were approached for help Al so in an effort

to offset these problems beds were offered

to transient vi s itors to the College for 25

cents per ni ght However all efforts failed

and the Club was fo rced to c lose with the last meeting he ld in Nove mber 28 1923

Fred Presa nt offered many interesting reco llectio ns of his s tudent days when he

utilized the facilities of the Club He recalled playing bridge with Pres ident

Reynold s including the fact th a t Dr Rey nolds constantly berated him for overshy

bidding hi s hand He menti oned that the international s tudents who utilized the Club

mostly Ii ved in rented rooms in hou ses near St Ge orge s Anglican Church but made

use of the Club almost daily and meetingshyroom facilities - as well as Mrs Slingers

snacks Following the demise of the Cosshy

mopolitan Club the house in which it

operated was bought by the late Professor Jack Baker II former head of the

Department of Entomology He in turn

so ld it to Pro fe ssor Waywell in 1954 0

ALUMNI NEWS Editor Dr Harvey W Caldwell S1

Dr Clulotl Swilzr 5 1

From The

D ean During the ten years that [ have been in the

Deans Office many former stude nt s and

friends o f the College have contributed

interesting and valuab[e historical items for

safekeeping in the OAC archives It was during our Centennial Year [974 that 1 firs t heard a bout one of the more innovative

of early student projects - the OAC

Cosmopolitan Club Waldo Arbuthnot 32 brought two

lithographs to my office th at he had been holding in pro tective custody for 46

years These pictures had been in the

Cosmopolitan Club and later in the orig inal

John ston Hall but had been removed for safekeepin g by W al do Arbuthnot and

so me of his classmates sometime during the

192829 sc hool year during the time that the old Johns ton Hal[ was being wrecked

These pictures are now part of the Uni vershy

s ity of Guelph Art Co llec tion

I next heard about the Cos mopolita n Club in 1979 from the late Clarence Hand 25 who recalled utilizing the club in 1922

He mentioned tha t Mr and Mrs James

Slinger lived in the club a t that time and that Mrs Slinger would when requested preshy

pare s nacks fo r the students Jim Slinger was a herdsman at the OAC and the

grandfather of Stan 37 John (Jake) Do n 50 Edna Alice Mac 48 George Bo b

and El s ie A few weeks ago retired Professor

Charles G Way well the present owner o f

the ho use that was formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Ciub visited me to present

the College with the brass nameplate picshytured rig ht He had located this namepl ate in the base ment of the ho use and indicated

his wish that it be reta ined by the Ontari o

Agric ultural College Following his v is it I decided that I

sho uld attempt to find o ut some thing more

about the origins and the ac ti vi ti es of th e

Club as [ felt that others might share my

interest in thi s bit ofOAC hi story Thank s to the help of se ve ra l people including Fred

Presant 23 Alan Darlington 83 Jake

Slin ger and Nancy Sadek of the

Uni ve rsity S Library I have been able to put together the fo llowi ng brief history

The students Cos mopo lit an Club of

the Ontario Agricultural Co ll ege me t for the

fir s t time in Octobe r 1910 in the Massey

Library The objectives of the Club were to promo te a better understa ndin g o f the

political economic and literary problems of different countrie s and to culti vate soc ial

inte rcourse among the st udents of different

na tio nalities of the College and thereby to foster the spirit of uni versal brotherhood

The Club was incorporated by letters patent

issued by the Government of Ontari o

January 28 1911 In December 1910 the Club consistshy

ing of about 60 members rented a house at 21 Forbes Avenue The members at that

time were from 16 different countries and included 34 s tudents and 26 others - some

faculty a nd intere sted Guelph ci tizens In the Spring of 1911 the much larger Baldshy

win House at 59 Dundas Road now the

Way well home was Ieased In addition to providing a soc ial club

the Cosmopolitan Club was ac tive in promshyoting student d a nces and smokers The

Club also initi a ted the first co-op on

cam pus to pro vide textboo ks and o the r items for students This ac tivity was quesshy

tio ned in a le tte r from the Deputy Mini ster

of Agric ulture to Pres ident Creelman in M arch 191 2 ev idently beca use of students

complaints th at the cost of te xtbooks was

o nl y five cents less than the regular price Pres ident Creelma n was Honorary

Pres ident of the Club until he left the OAC

in 1920 By 1922 the Club was in financial diffi culties and facu Ity members of the OA C

were approached for help Al so in an effort

to offset these problems beds were offered

to transient vi s itors to the College for 25

cents per ni ght However all efforts failed

and the Club was fo rced to c lose with the last meeting he ld in Nove mber 28 1923

Fred Presa nt offered many interesting reco llectio ns of his s tudent days when he

utilized the facilities of the Club He recalled playing bridge with Pres ident

Reynold s including the fact th a t Dr Rey nolds constantly berated him for overshy

bidding hi s hand He menti oned that the international s tudents who utilized the Club

mostly Ii ved in rented rooms in hou ses near St Ge orge s Anglican Church but made

use of the Club almost daily and meetingshyroom facilities - as well as Mrs Slingers

snacks Following the demise of the Cosshy

mopolitan Club the house in which it

operated was bought by the late Professor Jack Baker II former head of the

Department of Entomology He in turn

so ld it to Pro fe ssor Waywell in 1954 0

From The

D ean During the ten years that [ have been in the

Deans Office many former stude nt s and

friends o f the College have contributed

interesting and valuab[e historical items for

safekeeping in the OAC archives It was during our Centennial Year [974 that 1 firs t heard a bout one of the more innovative

of early student projects - the OAC

Cosmopolitan Club Waldo Arbuthnot 32 brought two

lithographs to my office th at he had been holding in pro tective custody for 46

years These pictures had been in the

Cosmopolitan Club and later in the orig inal

John ston Hall but had been removed for safekeepin g by W al do Arbuthnot and

so me of his classmates sometime during the

192829 sc hool year during the time that the old Johns ton Hal[ was being wrecked

These pictures are now part of the Uni vershy

s ity of Guelph Art Co llec tion

I next heard about the Cos mopolita n Club in 1979 from the late Clarence Hand 25 who recalled utilizing the club in 1922

He mentioned tha t Mr and Mrs James

Slinger lived in the club a t that time and that Mrs Slinger would when requested preshy

pare s nacks fo r the students Jim Slinger was a herdsman at the OAC and the

grandfather of Stan 37 John (Jake) Do n 50 Edna Alice Mac 48 George Bo b

and El s ie A few weeks ago retired Professor

Charles G Way well the present owner o f

the ho use that was formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Ciub visited me to present

the College with the brass nameplate picshytured rig ht He had located this namepl ate in the base ment of the ho use and indicated

his wish that it be reta ined by the Ontari o

Agric ultural College Following his v is it I decided that I

sho uld attempt to find o ut some thing more

about the origins and the ac ti vi ti es of th e

Club as [ felt that others might share my

interest in thi s bit ofOAC hi story Thank s to the help of se ve ra l people including Fred

Presant 23 Alan Darlington 83 Jake

Slin ger and Nancy Sadek of the

Uni ve rsity S Library I have been able to put together the fo llowi ng brief history

The students Cos mopo lit an Club of

the Ontario Agricultural Co ll ege me t for the

fir s t time in Octobe r 1910 in the Massey

Library The objectives of the Club were to promo te a better understa ndin g o f the

political economic and literary problems of different countrie s and to culti vate soc ial

inte rcourse among the st udents of different

na tio nalities of the College and thereby to foster the spirit of uni versal brotherhood

The Club was incorporated by letters patent

issued by the Government of Ontari o

January 28 1911 In December 1910 the Club consistshy

ing of about 60 members rented a house at 21 Forbes Avenue The members at that

time were from 16 different countries and included 34 s tudents and 26 others - some

faculty a nd intere sted Guelph ci tizens In the Spring of 1911 the much larger Baldshy

win House at 59 Dundas Road now the

Way well home was Ieased In addition to providing a soc ial club

the Cosmopolitan Club was ac tive in promshyoting student d a nces and smokers The

Club also initi a ted the first co-op on

cam pus to pro vide textboo ks and o the r items for students This ac tivity was quesshy

tio ned in a le tte r from the Deputy Mini ster

of Agric ulture to Pres ident Creelman in M arch 191 2 ev idently beca use of students

complaints th at the cost of te xtbooks was

o nl y five cents less than the regular price Pres ident Creelma n was Honorary

Pres ident of the Club until he left the OAC

in 1920 By 1922 the Club was in financial diffi culties and facu Ity members of the OA C

were approached for help Al so in an effort

to offset these problems beds were offered

to transient vi s itors to the College for 25

cents per ni ght However all efforts failed

and the Club was fo rced to c lose with the last meeting he ld in Nove mber 28 1923

Fred Presa nt offered many interesting reco llectio ns of his s tudent days when he

utilized the facilities of the Club He recalled playing bridge with Pres ident

Reynold s including the fact th a t Dr Rey nolds constantly berated him for overshy

bidding hi s hand He menti oned that the international s tudents who utilized the Club

mostly Ii ved in rented rooms in hou ses near St Ge orge s Anglican Church but made

use of the Club almost daily and meetingshyroom facilities - as well as Mrs Slingers

snacks Following the demise of the Cosshy

mopolitan Club the house in which it

operated was bought by the late Professor Jack Baker II former head of the

Department of Entomology He in turn

ALUMNI NEWS Editor Dr Harvey W Caldwell S1

From The

D ean During the ten years that [ have been in the

Deans Office many former stude nt s and

friends o f the College have contributed

interesting and valuab[e historical items for

safekeeping in the OAC archives It was during our Centennial Year [974 that 1 firs t heard a bout one of the more innovative

of early student projects - the OAC

Cosmopolitan Club Waldo Arbuthnot 32 brought two

lithographs to my office th at he had been holding in pro tective custody for 46

years These pictures had been in the

Cosmopolitan Club and later in the orig inal

John ston Hall but had been removed for safekeepin g by W al do Arbuthnot and

so me of his classmates sometime during the

192829 sc hool year during the time that the old Johns ton Hal[ was being wrecked

These pictures are now part of the Uni vershy

s ity of Guelph Art Co llec tion

I next heard about the Cos mopolita n Club in 1979 from the late Clarence Hand 25 who recalled utilizing the club in 1922

He mentioned tha t Mr and Mrs James

Slinger lived in the club a t that time and that Mrs Slinger would when requested preshy

pare s nacks fo r the students Jim Slinger was a herdsman at the OAC and the

grandfather of Stan 37 John (Jake) Do n 50 Edna Alice Mac 48 George Bo b

and El s ie A few weeks ago retired Professor

Charles G Way well the present owner o f

the ho use that was formerly occupied by the Cosmopolitan Ciub visited me to present

the College with the brass nameplate picshytured rig ht He had located this namepl ate in the base ment of the ho use and indicated

his wish that it be reta ined by the Ontari o

Agric ultural College Following his v is it I decided that I

sho uld attempt to find o ut some thing more

about the origins and the ac ti vi ti es of th e

Club as [ felt that others might share my

interest in thi s bit ofOAC hi story Thank s to the help of se ve ra l people including Fred

Presant 23 Alan Darlington 83 Jake

Slin ger and Nancy Sadek of the

Uni ve rsity S Library I have been able to put together the fo llowi ng brief history

The students Cos mopo lit an Club of

the Ontario Agricultural Co ll ege me t for the

fir s t time in Octobe r 1910 in the Massey

Library The objectives of the Club were to promo te a better understa ndin g o f the

political economic and literary problems of different countrie s and to culti vate soc ial

inte rcourse among the st udents of different

na tio nalities of the College and thereby to foster the spirit of uni versal brotherhood

The Club was incorporated by letters patent

issued by the Government of Ontari o

January 28 1911 In December 1910 the Club consistshy

ing of about 60 members rented a house at 21 Forbes Avenue The members at that

time were from 16 different countries and included 34 s tudents and 26 others - some

faculty a nd intere sted Guelph ci tizens In the Spring of 1911 the much larger Baldshy

win House at 59 Dundas Road now the

Way well home was Ieased In addition to providing a soc ial club

the Cosmopolitan Club was ac tive in promshyoting student d a nces and smokers The

Club also initi a ted the first co-op on

cam pus to pro vide textboo ks and o the r items for students This ac tivity was quesshy

tio ned in a le tte r from the Deputy Mini ster

of Agric ulture to Pres ident Creelman in M arch 191 2 ev idently beca use of students

complaints th at the cost of te xtbooks was

o nl y five cents less than the regular price Pres ident Creelma n was Honorary

Pres ident of the Club until he left the OAC

in 1920 By 1922 the Club was in financial diffi culties and facu Ity members of the OA C

were approached for help Al so in an effort

to offset these problems beds were offered

to transient vi s itors to the College for 25

cents per ni ght However all efforts failed

and the Club was fo rced to c lose with the last meeting he ld in Nove mber 28 1923

Fred Presa nt offered many interesting reco llectio ns of his s tudent days when he

utilized the facilities of the Club He recalled playing bridge with Pres ident

Reynold s including the fact th a t Dr Rey nolds constantly berated him for overshy

bidding hi s hand He menti oned that the international s tudents who utilized the Club

mostly Ii ved in rented rooms in hou ses near St Ge orge s Anglican Church but made

use of the Club almost daily and meetingshyroom facilities - as well as Mrs Slingers

snacks Following the demise of the Cosshy

mopolitan Club the house in which it

operated was bought by the late Professor Jack Baker II former head of the

Department of Entomology He in turn

so ld it to Pro fe ssor Waywell in 1954 0

As part of its capital fund the OAC

Alumni Fo undati o n is the cu stodian of the The OAC Alumni Foundation Prior to the establishment of the University

of G uelph in 1964 OAC alumni were

already conducting an annual fund raising

campaign In the mid 1950s the OAC Alumni

Association directors in response to needs

ex pressed by OAC facult y undertook to raise several thousand dollars annually to

fund entrance scholarships for exccptional

students with good rural backgrounds who

might be interes ted in attending the OAC It was soon apparent that a more stable

source of income was needed if the annual entrance scholarship program was to have

assured funding

As the next step the OAC Alumni

Association directors decided in 1959 to establish a foundation-to be known as the

OAC Alumni Foundation

It would have power to hold funds

received for investment to issue receipts for

income tax purposes and from the interest

eamed by the fund the ability to assure

OAC scholarship programs on a continuing

basis A major fund-raising campaign apshy

pealing to both alumni and agribusiness was approved The target was $200000 and

the late Harold Frey 14 was commisshy

sioned to spearhead the campaign on a part-time basis

County meetings were organized to enable a personal can vass of every OAC

alumnus In major centres a telephone blitz was undertaken

All of this from the stuffing of enshyvelopes the organizational meetings the

canvass calls manning the telephone

hlitzes to o pening the incoming mail and

counting the returns was undertaken by

directors of the O AC Alumni Assoc iation

and other OAC volunteers The res ult di sappointing to some was

a total of close to $110000 being rai sed

Though short of the objective it was

enough to guarantee eight annual entrance scholarships 01$1 000 each

T he OAC Alumni Foundation was in

place and operating The late Frank Wolff 36 John Moles 36 Earl Mighton 31

Lawrence Kerr 29 the late Morf Cockshy

burn 23 and Fred Presant 23 were the

origi nal alumni directors of the Foundation

incorporated February 26 1960

When the new University of Gue lph

decided to undertake a capital building fund

campaign in 1967 directors of the OAC

Alumni Assoc iation were asked to su spend

their fund rai s ing effort and to join the

Unive rsity campaign- which they did In 1969 foll o wing the conclusion of

Gordon Nixon 37 chairman the OAC Alumni Foundation

the Universitys capital building fund ca mshy

paign the OAC Alumni Association again conducted an annual fund raising campaign

on behalf of the Foundation-it was the last

formal campaign for fund s In the fall of 1969 the Univers ity

announced plans to mount its annual Alma

Mater Fund campaign on behalf of all component colleges of the University to be

conducted by the Department of Alumni

Affairs and Development In lieu of conducting their own camshy

paign the OAC Alumni Foundation was

guaranteed an amount of $8 000 for the ir

OAC Awards Program This amount is now reviewed every three years in common

with scho larship grants from the Alma Mater Fund to all other colleges By 1982

the grant had risen to $17 888

As gi ving to the Alma Mater Fund has increased so have the amounts made availshy

able to each college scholarship program In

practice the increase s have paralleled the

increases in fees and residence costs For

e xample the OAC Alumni Fo undation is

now able to o ffer 12 entrance sc holarships

with a value of $2400 each

Tho ugh no formal fund raising camshy

paign is carried on by the OAC Alumni

Foundation its asse ts continue to grow and

its good work on behalf of OAC students continues

A sound investment po licy and the

continuing fi nancial support of loyal O AC

alumni have increased the endowment

fund to approximately $225 000 Entrance

scholarships undergraduate and g raduate awards to OAC students in 1981 totalled

more than $28000

in this area says Dr Wardlaw but its

something we have to continually work on

Thi s kind of environment is still very unusu al

Has the College fulfilled Dr MacshyLachlan s vision Ycs says Dr

Wardlaw without a moments hesitation

Gradu ates have moved into family service agencies teaching business and governshy

ment Everywhere they go they carry with

them the conviction that today s proble ms

mu st be solved by interaction and coshy

operation between specialists in different

disc iplines This broad o utl ook gives the

graduates a valuable and unusual perspecshytive

My hope she adds is that the

College will continue to re -e valuate its

mandate and its role 111 serving Canadian

we need to keep asking if the areas have

Dean Janet Wardlaws

Years At Guelph

By Mary Co civera

When Dr Janet Wardlaw came to the

niversity ofGuclph from Toronto in 1966

the College of Famil y and Consumer Studies was not even a twinkling in anyshyones eye In the late 1960s the vision of

the Universitys first president Dr J D

MacLachlan was to hring into being a

Co llege that would meet the needs of

Canadian society in th e 1980s

Looking hack now Dean Wardlaw

marvel s at his visionary approach She has

been intimately involved in the e volution o f the Collcge to its present structure encolll shy

pass ing the Department of Family Studies the Department of Consumer Studies and

the School of Hotel and Food Administrashytion

That vision wouldnt have become a

reality witho ut the strong support ufthe next president Dr Bill Winegard and viceshy

pres ident academic Dr Burt Matthews

who thoroughly believed in the burgeoning

College and its far-sighted missio n

Dr Wardlaw also attributes much of

the early success to the Macdonald Institute

faculty who threw their full support behind

the new College even though it meant

sweeping changes in their well- ordered a ademic Iives

We predicted and in retrospect those

predictions were uncannily accurate that

more women particularly mothers of young children would enter the w ork force that

families would be smaller more mobile and

consequently more removed from relatives

that more products would be available in the marketplace and that government would

Dr Janet Wardlaw Dean 1969 middot1983

take more responsibility in the marketshyplace says Dr Wardlaw

We envisioned majors in Family

Studies Child Studies Applied Human

Nutrition and Consumer Studies that would prepare people for careers in this kind of

world The thing we didnt foresee was the

impact of the aging populati on but the

College has developed a strength in this area in the last several years

Those early organizers of the College

believed that many of the problems facing

Canadian society would require coshyoperative input by psyc hol og is ts econoshy

mi sts sociologists social workers and many other spec ialists Today the co mposishytion of the faculty-from architect to textile

scientist - reflects this co mmitment to the

multi-disciplinary approach

The College achieves an environment

where consumer behavior speciali sts can

communicate with child psychologists and

where gerontologists can work with nutri shy

done by a process which involves addin g alcohol and ca talysts follow ed by vigorous mixing Smaller and therefore kss viscous molecu les called esters are the result The remaining vertica l part of the lelle r E is glycerine a by-product which has a

George Lawson Medal to Laking

-Dr Leslie Lakillf 39

The George Lawson Award of the Canashydian Bota nical Association was preshysented to Dr Leslie Lak ing 39 at their annual banquet in Regina Sask Part of the citation read by the president Dr J B Phipps is reprinted below

T onight we honour a botan ist whose career over more than 35 yea ls has been de vo ted to the practical educ at ional and cultural asshypec ts of our scie nce His main achi evements

have been in th e field of ornamental horshyti culture and one of his objectives has always been that of educating the public about the plant world

It is therefore not surprising that under his direction the Royal Botani cal Garde ns at Hamilton has developed into a scie ntifi c educational and cultural in stitushytion known and respected not on ly at local and region al levels but nation ally and internationall y

The Canadian Botanical Association is therefore grateful that Les lie Laking a Canadian botani st with a sound sc ientific background and the necessary training in horti culture has devoted his career to the important tasks of I furthering our knowl edge of the practishyca l aspects of growing plants 2 imparting this knowledge both to botshyanists and to the public at large 3 promoting the concept that in the sc ientific and cultural life of a nation a botanical gardens role must be of the same order and stature as that of our great museu ms never losing sight of the fac t that both ex ist to se rve mankind

In recog niti on of his achieve ments in the field of ornament al horticulture and for an oustanding career in the development of scie ntific educational and cultural proshygrams at the Royal Bo tanica l Gardens the Canadian Botanical Associat ion awards the George Lawson Meda l to Dr Leslie Laking 0

Dean Janet Wardlaws

Years At Guelph

By Mary Co civera

When Dr Janet Wardlaw came to the

niversity ofGuclph from Toronto in 1966

the College of Famil y and Consumer Studies was not even a twinkling in anyshyones eye In the late 1960s the vision of

the Universitys first president Dr J D

MacLachlan was to hring into being a

Co llege that would meet the needs of

Canadian society in th e 1980s

Looking hack now Dean Wardlaw

marvel s at his visionary approach She has

been intimately involved in the e volution o f the Collcge to its present structure encolll shy

pass ing the Department of Family Studies the Department of Consumer Studies and

the School of Hotel and Food Administrashytion

That vision wouldnt have become a

reality witho ut the strong support ufthe next president Dr Bill Winegard and viceshy

pres ident academic Dr Burt Matthews

who thoroughly believed in the burgeoning

College and its far-sighted missio n

Dr Wardlaw also attributes much of

the early success to the Macdonald Institute

faculty who threw their full support behind

the new College even though it meant

sweeping changes in their well- ordered a ademic Iives

We predicted and in retrospect those

predictions were uncannily accurate that

more women particularly mothers of young children would enter the w ork force that

families would be smaller more mobile and

consequently more removed from relatives

that more products would be available in the marketplace and that government would

Dr Janet Wardlaw Dean 1969 middot1983

take more responsibility in the marketshyplace says Dr Wardlaw

We envisioned majors in Family

Studies Child Studies Applied Human

Nutrition and Consumer Studies that would prepare people for careers in this kind of

world The thing we didnt foresee was the

impact of the aging populati on but the

College has developed a strength in this area in the last several years

Those early organizers of the College

believed that many of the problems facing

Canadian society would require coshyoperative input by psyc hol og is ts econoshy

mi sts sociologists social workers and many other spec ialists Today the co mposishytion of the faculty-from architect to textile

scientist - reflects this co mmitment to the

multi-disciplinary approach

The College achieves an environment

where consumer behavior speciali sts can

communicate with child psychologists and

where gerontologists can work with nutri shy

the Universitys first president Dr J D

Dr Wardlaw also attributes much of

the early success to the Macdonald Institute

faculty who threw their full support behind

the new College even though it meant

sweeping changes in their well- ordered a ademic Iives

We predicted and in retrospect those

predictions were uncannily accurate that

more women particularly mothers of young children would enter the w ork force that

families would be smaller more mobile and

consequently more removed from relatives

that more products would be available in the marketplace and that government would

We envisioned majors in Family

Studies Child Studies Applied Human

Nutrition and Consumer Studies that would prepare people for careers in this kind of

world The thing we didnt foresee was the

impact of the aging populati on but the

College has developed a strength in this area in the last several years

Those early organizers of the College

believed that many of the problems facing

Canadian society would require coshyoperative input by psyc hol og is ts econoshy

tionists We ve made eno rmous prognss

in this area says Dr Wardlaw but its

something we have to continually work on

Thi s kind of environment is still very unusu al

Has the College fulfilled Dr MacshyLachlan s vision Ycs says Dr

Wardlaw without a moments hesitation

Gradu ates have moved into family service agencies teaching business and governshy

ment Everywhere they go they carry with

them the conviction that today s proble ms

mu st be solved by interaction and coshy

operation between specialists in different

disc iplines This broad o utl ook gives the

graduates a valuable and unusual perspecshytive

My hope she adds is that the

College will continue to re -e valuate its

mandate and its role 111 serving Canadian

soc ie ty Weve identified crucial areas but

we need to keep asking if the areas have

c hanged and if we re dea ling with those areas in the most effective way 0

Dean Janet Wardlaws

Years At Guelph

By Mary Co civera

When Dr Janet Wardlaw came to the

niversity ofGuclph from Toronto in 1966

the College of Famil y and Consumer Studies was not even a twinkling in anyshyones eye In the late 1960s the vision of

the Universitys first president Dr J D

MacLachlan was to hring into being a

Co llege that would meet the needs of

Canadian society in th e 1980s

Looking hack now Dean Wardlaw

marvel s at his visionary approach She has

been intimately involved in the e volution o f the Collcge to its present structure encolll shy

pass ing the Department of Family Studies the Department of Consumer Studies and

the School of Hotel and Food Administrashytion

That vision wouldnt have become a

reality witho ut the strong support ufthe next president Dr Bill Winegard and viceshy

pres ident academic Dr Burt Matthews

who thoroughly believed in the burgeoning

College and its far-sighted missio n

Dr Wardlaw also attributes much of

the early success to the Macdonald Institute

faculty who threw their full support behind

the new College even though it meant

sweeping changes in their well- ordered a ademic Iives

We predicted and in retrospect those

predictions were uncannily accurate that

more women particularly mothers of young children would enter the w ork force that

families would be smaller more mobile and

consequently more removed from relatives

that more products would be available in the marketplace and that government would

Dr Janet Wardlaw Dean 1969 middot1983

take more responsibility in the marketshyplace says Dr Wardlaw

We envisioned majors in Family

Studies Child Studies Applied Human

Nutrition and Consumer Studies that would prepare people for careers in this kind of

world The thing we didnt foresee was the

impact of the aging populati on but the

College has developed a strength in this area in the last several years

Those early organizers of the College

believed that many of the problems facing

Canadian society would require coshyoperative input by psyc hol og is ts econoshy

mi sts sociologists social workers and many other spec ialists Today the co mposishytion of the faculty-from architect to textile

scientist - reflects this co mmitment to the

multi-disciplinary approach

The College achieves an environment

where consumer behavior speciali sts can

communicate with child psychologists and

where gerontologists can work with nutri shy

prestigious award the Ted Wildman Me shymorial trophy for 1983

Dr Jack Cote 5 I chairman of the selection committee spoke with pride in announcing the selection A former Wildshyman Trophy winner himself (1950) Dr

record in meeting the criteria for the award [t is awarded to a senior or graduating

student representing the University in inter-collegiate football competition who

exemplifies to the highest degree the characshyteristics of true sportsmanship leadership

and gentlemanly conduct and who has attained good scholarship while at the

more evident than in the Gryphons Homeshycoming 82 victory which helped turn around an early season slump The win

catapulted the Gryphons to two of their most notable victories ever A first team All-Star

two years ago Hobson returned to the Gryphons line-up this year and as a coshy

captain led the team to victories over the

University of Western Ontario and Univershysity of Toronto a first in league play for the

Red and Gold He was subsequently named to the leagues All-Star team

Off the field the soft-spoken Hobson has compiled a record even more glittering

As an undergraduate he compiled a grade

average of 90 per cent in the Bachelor of Science program including 20 straight As [n 1981 Scott entered the OvC and

has again maintained an A average His

brilliant performance in the classroom moved both Dr Cote and head football coach Tom Dimitroff to describe him as

the perfect choice for an award that honours versatility leadership physical

powers and academic scholarship Hobson is a graduate of Guelphs John

F Ross Collegiate where he earned similar

honours on and off the field 0
