A group of 40 parishioners ' of
St. paul's Anglican Church
journeyed to London Sunday af-
ternoon, in spite of the miserable
stormy weather . . . The reason—
to make, a tour of inspection of
the new Huron College . . . At
the kind invitation of Mr. and
Mrs. C. H. Epps, we were invited
along, and with our hosts and
Mrs. Lillian McKinnon and the
editor, had a nice drive in spite
of drifting snow and winds . . .
* * *
WE were most interested in
seeing this latest addition to the
University of Western Ontario
campus—the most beautiful in
Canada (we are a Western grad—
but we have seen most of the
campuses from U. of B.C. to Dal-
housie—so it isn't just prejudice!)
.. Situated in the most northerly
Part of the campus, Huron, Col-
lege makes a fine addition to the
several stately buildings, which
compose the "heart" of -the Uni-
versity . . * *
ACTUALLY, Huron College is
a group of buildings all joined
together . . . There is the stud-
ents' residence, the College, the
Chapel„ and the Principal's resi-
dence . . The latter three are
of limestone, conforming in type
to other buildings on the campus,
and the students' residence is of
red brick . . ; *
REV. M. W. Parker, bursar and
registrar of the College, took our
group on an inspection tour—and
more kindly and interested at-
tention could not be given to any
group . . . We saw everything
on all floors, except the private
rooms of students and professors
. . . The authorities have built
well and permanently—and as
Mr, Parker said, to last hundreds
of years. . *
THE Clinton group were pos-
sibly most interested in the
beautiful small chapel, which
has an ageless beauty seldom seen
in anything new . . Prom the
stone-finished floors to the mis-
sion oak 'beans of the ceiling,
from the artislleally-shaped win-
(lows, the heavily hand-carved
communion table, the chapel
pews, all of mission oak, to the
choir-loft and Casavant organ in
the balcony at the rear — 'the
Chapel is a thing of beauty for
this and succeeding generations.. * a a
OTHER, parts of the building
which created wide interest were
the dining room and kitchen . ,
The former is a very large room
with squared floora, and is acous-
tically perfect . . . The reason
for the acoustics—asthe largest
pollege, it is used room in the
for Huron convocations, student
parties and other activities . . .
The furnishings, as in -the student
"Common_ Roam" are of no-mar
finished maple in mission oak
colouring . . -The kitchen has
all the modern equipment neces-
sary efficiently to take care of
about 200 persons a, meal ,• . * *
WE were quite interested in
the classrooms and librarY, which
conform largely to those ,of the
Arts and Science Buildings . .
However, possibly the windows
are larger and have a more
beautiful view — overlooking a
wide ravine at the back (and
what a test of will power that
will be for students during the
spring and fall seasons) . . .

many men students, and Spencer

In the interim, a good word
should be said for the college
fraternities, b o t h men's and
women's . . . Irrespective of the
reputation they have acquired on
other campuses, the fraternities
have done a good job at West-
ern . . The first fraternity houses
were functioning when we were
at college, and since then, all
have bought spacious homes, and
have given to Western, an op-
portunity for many of their stud-
ents to have the needed residence

TODAY, Western has a truly
fine men's residence open to
every denomination—and right on

nreatest steps forward since the
Arts College was built in 1924...

WE remember in our day (hor-
rors, is, there anything worse than
an oldtimer reminiscing?) . .
We came to Western after a year
at the University of Toronto
where we lived at 7 Queen's
Park -•-the old Queen's Hall --a
University College women's resi-
dence since given way to Whitney
Mall . . In those days at West-
ern "'the only official college
residences were Brescia Hall and
St. Peter's Seminary for Catholi c
students, a n d Huron College
which could accommodate a mere
handful of non-divinity students
. . . However, there was an un-
off icial residence owned and op-
erated by the then Dean of Wom-
en . . . It was a lovely old'home
on Ridout St. which accommodat-
ed 24 girls . . . It was called
"Alpha House" . . . We lived
there two years out of the three
at Western . . . Because it was
run by the rules and regulations
of the owner and not by univer-
tial solution to a university
residence problem . . . How-
ever, in spite of some small
deficiencies, both Mrs. Brock Olde
and ourself, , two Clintonian in-
mates at the time, would feel we
had missed:something worthwhile
at , Western, if we had not been
in residence at Alpha House . . . * *
