Mr W. Ron Heath The Coat of Arms was derived from that of the Clan Fraser. The name Faculty Marshals Fraser is said to have come from the French word "!raises," meaning Dr Douglas Allen strawberries, hence the Shield and flag each include the strawberry Dr Irene Gordon flower motif. Dr Tom O'Shea The mace was commissioned by the University architects, Erickson­ Graduand Marshals Massey, and was presented to the University at the opening ceremonies on September 9, 1965. The mace is 61 inches long and Dr Stephen Duguid weighs 23 pounds. Pieces of cut and polished jade, which were taken Dr Christine Mackenzie from the University's jade boulder in the reflecting pool, were set in Dr Allan MacKinnon silver by its designer, Haida artist Bill Reid. The mace is crowned by a Chief Usher silver stag's head, derived from the coat-of-arms of Lord Laval, head of the Clan Fraser. The Fraser tradition was to fasten sprigs of yew in Mr Richard MacLeod their bonnets before entering battle. The mace was carved from two hundred year old yew, gathered on Burnaby Mountain by a resident in the 1940s. National Anthem Lord Laval presented the University with a claymore, or great sword, 0 Canada! Our home and native land! on September 9, 1965. The claymore was first used by a Fraser at the True patriot love in all our sons command. Battle of Culloden Moor in 1746. It was also used by a Fraser at the With glowing hearts we see thee rise, Battle of the Plains of Abraham in 1759. The claymore is approximately The true North strong and free! 36 inches long and weighs two pounds. From far and wide, 0 Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

  • World League of Fantasy Football Bob Ackles
    World League of Fantasy Football Bob Ackles Cup Bob Ackles was born in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada, on Sept. 16, 1938. His family moved to Vancouver, British Columbia in 1952 and as a kid he played hockey, football and rugby. After seeing a newspaper article saying a professional football team was forming in Vancouver he immediately applied for a job. And so, Bob Ackles began his tenure with the BC Lions in 1953 as the water boy in the team’s first season in the Canadian Football League. Over the next 22 years he worked his way up through the ranks and was named the Lions’ General Manager in 1975. Eleven years he guided the team before being lured to the NFL where for the next six seasons he was the Vice President of Player Personnel for the Dallas Cowboys. Ackles left Dallas for the Phoenix Cardinals in 1992, but the Cowboys team he helped assemble went on to win Super Bowls in 1993, 1994 and 1996. He served in similar senior positions with Phoenix, Philadelphia, and Miami and also the Las Vegas Outlaws of the short-lived XFL. Ackles was the only person ever to hold senior executive positions in all three football leagues. In 2002 Ackles returned to the BC Lions as CEO and President and was also named to the CFL Hall of Fame. In 1986 he won the Schenley Award for his contribution to Canadian football, the only non-player to be recognized in the 33- year history of the award. In September 2007 Ackles’ published his memoir, The Water Boy (From the Sidelines to the Owner's Box: Inside the CFL, the XFL, and the NFL), a candid account of his life and his more than 50 years in professional football.

Instead, the International Olympic Committee picked Atlanta, which had more robust facilities and offered a greater chance of financial success. While taxpayer money paid for infrastructure improvements supporting the Games, private companies and revenue from tickets funded new sports venues and the actual Games. That meant solvency, but it also opened the door to more commercialism. Politically, the XXVI Olympiad was a triumph, drawing unprecedented international representation. For the first time, athletes from all 197 national Olympic committees participated — more than 10,000 athletes in all. Two dozen nations made their Olympic or Summer Games debut. The Games also marked the return of boxing legend Muhammad Ali to the public eye.
