British Press on Appointment

LONDON. Jan. 27-(CP)-The entire British press featured the appointment of Vincent Massey as Canada's first native-born gover- nor-general.

The Empire-conscious Daily Mail announced the appointment with banner headlines.

The papers warmly praised Mas- sey in their editorial columns.

The Times said that the Canad- lzm Cabinet considered Massey 'simply the best man for the post" of governor-general "once it was known no member of the Royal Family was free to accept it."

"To the people of this country no diplomatist is better known and respected than the man who rep. resented Canada as high commls. sioner in London for 10 long and trnlbled years."

It may be safely said no one could be more acceptable to the king himself as his representative than a man who has long been known as fl friend and confidant of the Royal Family. the Times added.

Th” independent Conservative Pally Telegraph in an editorial headed "Canada's Choice," said

MISSCY was "the man best quali- fied to fill the post."

OTTAWA. Jan. 26-(CP) Can- r.da's resources are in world de- mand to an ever-increasing de- gree "not only for civil needs but for the defence organization under the United Nations and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization," Vis- count Alexander said last night.

In an address prepared for de- llvcry to the 45th annual meeting of the Canadian Institute of Min- ing and Metallurgy-which may be one of his last speeches in Canada --the Governor-General noted the "vast" mining development which Canada has made since he assumed office here six years ago.

He warned that while this de- velopment mennt much to Canada in the way of wealth and oppor- tunity, "wealth brings responsibili- ties together with all its troubles.

"Canada. will find as she grows in richness and prosperity. that she will be drawn more and more into the world's problems andhave to shoulder greater responsibilities than are as yet realized."

Reported to be leaving soon to become defence minister in the Churchill cabinet. Viscount Alex- ander said he addressed the gath- ering "Just before I leave Canada"

"And I must admit that the oc-

casion holds a note of sadness for me. My- wife and I have been very happy here in this country amongst you. My children have grown u,-. as young Canadians and are frank- lv very unhappy at the thought of leaving Canada, which has become our second home " He had gddroued the Inslitvte soon after coming to this country- 'five years ago almost to the day." During that time he had been particularly impressed by the dia- oovery of two major sources of wealth-the oil mid: of Alberta and the great ore deposits of Un- gave.

P. W. C. llews & Views

The third in the series of the Prince of Wales College concerts will be held in the college audit- orium on next Monday night. This concert is of particular interest to the students since there is a chorus composed entirely of P. W. C. girls. There are about nine- teen of them participating in the concert.

The chorus is under the cap- able dlrectlon of Miss Lillian Mac- Kenzie and is accompanied on the piano by Mrs. G. E. Full. It is hoped that many of the college students will attend since they will surely benefit by it. The girls themselves are all in their late teens and are principally from this city.

The hockey dance which was held last Monday night was a suc- cess both for the people attending the dance and for the A.A.A. who received the funds from the stu- dents. These funds will be used in helping to finance the trip here by King's College hockey team from Halifax. In regards to the dance which is to be held to celebrate the occasion, it will be at Prince of Wales and not at the Rollaway as previously mentioned.

The Welshman have not taken part in outside competition during the past week but many games were played in the house league. The league plans to move into the semi-final series this week. and this along with the finals will fill out a very successful season.

The Hasbeens are leading in the series at the moment. The lead in the scoring race is con- trolled by Ciee Glllis, a very cup- able hockey player both in school and at P.W.C.

The basketball team has had some serious setbacks so far this season but will remain in there fighting till the last. Saturday night they were forced to freeze the ball to prevent the Saints from reaching the hundred mark. The defeats are due mainly to the fact that the team is composed almost entirely of rookies. But these rookies beat the Saints in the last quarter the other night. The students are still behind the team and know that with a few more games they will have prac- ticed enough to make I better showing against the other teams.

A French conversation class has been started at P.W.C. by Mr. Aitkens the French teacher. The class or club as it is better known is held every Friday afternoon. It tends to be a social affair as formalities are done away with. It is expected that it will be- come a place where the students and teachers can reach a better understanding of each other since there are several teachers attend- ing the club. Mr Aitkens hopes that they will be able to put on a French play at a. later date as the club progresses to prove to the rest of the college that it is possible to learn to speak French in an English speaking commun- it
