es aster day is only one week from by j a strung in these modern dats we have become so used to aeelng the ja dies taking a man s place that any thing new along this line is scarcely noticed it is interesting though to read that there are eighteen girls taking the science oourse at the school of practical science at var slty two are even talcing civil engin eerlng and the others are takng such subjects as electrical mechanical and chemical engineering if we remem ber correctly back in 1940 there was one girl attending pj3 as the school is popularly known and she was taking chemical engineering her father in the dye business and she was looking forward to going in with nun after gra duatlon the science course is the toughest of the lot at varsity the stu dents spend about 36 hours per week in lectures and labs in comparison arts students spend about 20 hours per week although the arts students have extra reading to do the science stu debts have from 14 to 18 subjects to write each term as compared with about half that number for other students then again the science stu dents are the first to write exams at the end of each term and as they are staged so early there is no time at all for review work there are about 1100 men taking the science courses this year and they have to be good in or der to remain in school in these war times students that fail to make the grade are sent over to the recruiting rooms on the other hand students that do make the grade are given cer tain privileges upon graduation and are given army positions in keeping with engineering qualifications the playoffs for the stanley cup in the national hockey league are away to an exciting start as we write these lines most oi us- have a heart for the under dog always and although we were pulling for both to ronto maple leafs and the chicago black hawks to win at kan some of their games we really dldn t expect them both to win their first game of the series during the final game of the regular schedule we had listened to elmer ferguson predict that the canadians would take the toronto montreal series in four straight games and the other members of the hot stove league really dldn t have much argument in opposition to fergy as you of oourse know the montreal team bad not been beaten on their own ice during the last twenty five games and to have the young inexperienced to ronto team come down there aad beat them three to one in the first of the series was quite an upset the game halted member makes maidenspeech in parliament its not love erthkr if his hair is dishevelled and his eyes are red if he looks as though he has not been to bed if he looks unshaven if he looks down- oast don t blame him for drinking or a life thats too fast if his hand is shaking if be talks very quick if he mumbles and stutters and looks very sick if he wanders around and acts like a child dont blame him for going to parties too wild for here is a man though he looks tuckered

readjustment spawn a new horde of desperadoes whose ruth less defiance of law and order make baby face nelson and john dlllinger fieem like mere beginners j edgar hoover writing in the american weekly with this sundays april 2 issue of the detroit sunday times revals the threat of a new postwar gang era get sundays detroit times was perhaps the most interesting hoc key game of the season to listen to we had become to used to listening to foster hewitt broadcast hockey that we had about decided that he was the only person that could do it however a mr smith of calgary was brought down to broadcast the game from montreal and he did a good job of it as though broadcasting that exciting game wasnt enough for one night the imperial oh company who sponsor the hockey broadcasts had this same mr smith pick the three stars of course the series may look very dlf ferent by the time that these lines appear in print however even if the leafs fall to win another game in the stanley cup playdowns they can be proud of their effort in the first game at least reproduced below are extracts from the first speech made from the floor or the ontario parliament by stanley hall streetsvllle
