We felt, therefore,\nthat we could do no better than follow in the footsteps of our predecessors\nand this Totem\u00E2\u0080\u0094with the exception of some very minor changes\u00E2\u0080\u0094has\nfaithfully upheld the standard already established. There are many\nAnnuals more imposing; but there is none, we venture to say, that more\ncharacteristically expresses the essential spirit, the individuality of the\nstudent body, than our Totem. Its very slenderness, and, by the same\ntoken, its possibility of further improvement, make it a fitting record of\nour ambition, our youth and our potentialities for future development.\nPage Seven THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA\nTHE FACVLTV OF\n3$>\u00C2\u00BB3CIBNCE\nArts 77\nPROLOGUE\nFather Time:\n\"They come and they shall go,\n'Tis thus and ever must be so.\nNow, infant Twenty-seven, take\nthy charge\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nThrough four short years, speed on,\nThy name to make or mar!\"\nACT I.\nScene 1\u00E2\u0080\u0094The\nShacks in Fair-\nview.\nThe scene\nopens with five\nhundred - odd\nwide - eyed\nFreshmen and\nFreshettes starting upon; their\nUniversity career. They are\nall known\nunder the name\nArts '27. This\nis the last class\nto enjoy the\ngood old form\nof i n i tiation\nwith a bonfire\nand feed afterwards. It is at\nthis period o f\nUniversity history that the\nHeinz Band is\ni n s tituted, b y\nthe above-mentioned class, having the prophetic 57\nvarieties of instruments. There is a\nstudent campaign on for funds for\nthe new University, and the Freshmen have erected a shoe-shine parlour; it is a recognized fact that there\nare more shiny shoes in Varsity than\never before or since. The class, hav-\nDR. G. SEDGWICK\ning caught at once the fever known\nas \"Class Spirit,\" turns itself toward\nevery phase of college life and marks\nitself as a youthful prodigy by capturing the Governor's Cup. Such is\nArts '27's debut!\nACT II. Scene 1 \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nSetting same as Act I.\nSome of the\nfamiliar characters are absent,\nbut many are\nstill there as\nSophomores to\nfulfil the pro-\nm i s e of the\nFreshman year.\nIn athletics the\nclass shows its\nability by winning the Arts\n'20 relay, the\nteam comprised\nof McWilliams,\nSturdy,Mottley,\nMulhern, Elliot,\nMac Kay, McKinnon, and\nParmley. A t\nthis stage Arts\n'27 has tjhree\nmore cups to its\ncredit ; once\nmore the coveted Governor's\nCup, the Faculty Cup, and\nt h e Arts '25\nRelay Cup for the girls. It is honored by having among its number\ntwo members of the cast of the\nSpring Play; one is the leading lady,\nBice Clegg, the other Avis Pumphrey.\nAnd last but not least, must be mentioned the excellent Class Party in\nthe form of a Chinese Party where\n(Continued on Page Forty-one)\nPage Eight THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA\nDALTON ALLAN\nConfined at Fairview and Point Grey for\na period not exceeding four years, but just\nlong enough to attract the name of Dooley.\nCommonplace as it may seem, the name has\nattracted considerable renown in many circles.\nTo the Swimming Club, Dooley has been a\ngodfather. He has nourished the growth of the\norganization to a position commanding attention from all corners of the campus. Work\nand enthusiasm are his middle name. While\nnot at work winning the Banff meet he may be\nseen . Oh, well, all humanity has its\nweakness.\nBLANCHE ALMOND\nOur young Philosopher. Blanche has taken\nnearly every Philosophy course at Varsity,\nand all she craves (at times) is a quiet place\nto study. But this is by no means her chief\noccupation, for she seems to find time to\nattend all the social functions. She was Vice-\nPresident of the class in her Freshman year,\nand throughout her undergraduate career has\nbeen one of the most popular members of\nArts '27.\nJOHN STANLEY ALLEN\nStan's capabilities are many. Although\na Chemistry Honors Student, he still finds\ntime to exercise his resonant, bass voice\nin the Musical Society. In his Junior year,\nwhen not busy cracking \"vile puns,\" he spent\nhis spare time in looking after the advertising\ndepartment of the \"Ubyssey.\" In the capacity\nof Advertising Manager to this publication he\nsucceeded in balancing \"ads. vs. much\" to\nthe entire satisfaction both of the student body\nand of the pub. staff.\nALBERT BAILEY\n\"I gotta new woman.\"\nStill, in spite of this handicap, Varsity could\nstand a few more like Bert. In fact, we wish\nhe were twins. Like many of Varsity's stars,\nBert comes from Victoria. He is a prominent\nmember of the Players' Club, having appeared\nin the last two Christmas plays in addition to\nbeing Treasurer of his class. Besides being an\ninternational debater, Bert can rattle a wicked\nhoof on the road, winning his lap last year in\nthe Arts '20 relay. But with all these activities\nand the added handicap of only twenty-four\nhours in a day, the brainy boy can still get\ngood averages.\nWILLIAM ARGUE\nA gruaduate of Agriculture '25, Bill has\nspent a year doing post-graduate work at Iowa\nState Agricultural College. Although he has\nbeen with '27 for one year, we trust that he\nwill maintain his usual high scholastic standing\nas an Arts man. One thing is sure that Bill\nhas made a name for himself at Badminton\nthis year. He starred with the Varsity team\nat Kelowna by defeating the singles champion\nof the interior, and later as a runner-up for\nthe B.C. singles title. In short, a most welcome\naddition to '27.\n[W.l ::::::::::\u00C2\u00BB::'::::\niVil -:\u00C2\u00BB::::::::::::::t\nft^ s:::::s::::;:::k:|\nfe-r\n& iillL\niVVII \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00C2\u00BB\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00C2\u00BB!\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00C2\u00BB\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00C2\u00BB!\u00C2\u00BB\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\nJ\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"\nPage Nine THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA\nurn*** t; ** a itra* **\u00E2\u0080\u00A2!*> hk1\nassise?;: ;,i.: riU\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0096\u00A0**\u00C2\u00AB , l^k\n::::::::n:::::::; KX.\nitjuiiiimuiiaa ipV\n-TO}\n' 111$\nill I\nBISHOP BLACK\nBishop did not enter the circle of '27 until\nhis third year.

In spite of her two\nyears' school teaching, her glorious bob and\nfrank smile savor more of the frivolous Freshette than of the dignified Senior. Anne majors\nin French and English, but somehow finds\ntime for numerous meetings, teas and shows.\nALBERT FORRESTER BLACK\nYou may call him \"Al.\" or \"Bert\" or\n\"Albert.\" Bert is perhaps best known for his\ntalking ways and for his unpopular rendition\nof popular songs in various unhallowed places,\nsuch as the common room, caf., Ford cars,\nand club dances. He is a gentleman with a\ndesire for education, and many of his activities\nare relegated to the library. A great love for\nall things French induced Bert to become a\nmember of La Canadienne. If approached\ncarefully he is guaranteed not to bite, although\nhe may bark.\nPage Ten THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA\nANNIE LAURA BLATCHFORD\nAnnie comes from Bristol, like her great\nancestor, Sebastian Cabot. Whether she will\nfollow in his steps and discover unknown\nlands, the fates alone can tell. At present her\ntime is divided between unravelling the\nmysteries of abstruse French authors and\nanalysing the aesthetic appeal of cafeteria\ndainties. Her outside interests are many and\nvaried. A few of them are music, canaries and\nshort men. We wish her a successful future,\nand may she never be without her cup of\ngolden tea.\nASHLEY W. BOYDEN\nAnother of those birds from Victoria, Ashley's\nfirst two years of University life were spent at\nVictoria College. Since coming among us, he\nhas made his presence felt in the Musical\nSociety. He is also guardian of the shekels in\n\"La Canadienne\" and Vice-President of the\nnewly formed Chess Club. Courses in English\nand History, with a little Economics mixed\nin for good measure, have assured Ashley a\nvaried and successful college course.\nRHEA MAY BLACK\n\"She's not very tall, but it's nice to be small;\nHas labs more than one; but is ready for fun.''\nMay is one of the six who strive to produce\nbigger and better bacteria on the top floor of\nthe Science Building. Even the \"bugs\" cheer\nup when her shining countenance appears, for\nwho could be lonesome when May is around?\nIn her more serious moments she splashes in\nChalmer's Tank, or adds her contribution to\nthe college warblers.\nNORMAN BROWN\nOne of the best all-round members of our\nclass, is Norm. A keen student of Economics\nand History, his pet hobby is to spend most\nof his lectures discussing perplexing problems\nwith patient professors. He has been a member\nof the Varsity orchestra, has played rugby,\nhas represented Varsity in the City Debating\nLeague and this year has debated against the\nUniversity of Washington. Furthermore, he has\nbeen known to execute marvellous contortions\no'er a dance floor. A future legal light, or\ncaptain of industry is Norm.'s ambition.\nWINNIFRED EMMELINE BOYES\nWinnie is a delightful humbug.

Woe\nbetide you if she settles besides you in the\nlibrary! If you have work to do, depart immediately; linger and you are lost.
