Winnipeg, Manitoba,2003 THE FRIARS' BRIAR _) -Q---r-r".> Twenty Fifth Anniversary 2003 Chapter25 Chapter25 The Winnipeg 2003Briar: Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Twenty five vears:a briefanniversarvhistoN How pleasedwould havebeen ow principal founder,Don Amos, now deceased,to have receiveda copy ofthe invitation sentout by FraserMuldrew this springto attendthe Friars' Briar in Winnipeg,marking its twenty-fifth Anniversary! The Friars' Briar beganwhen Don readin the newspape$about fiiction betweenEast andWest in Canadaas illusbated by thePfime Minister's famous quote, "Let the Albertansfreeze in theiroil!". Don'ssimple solution for theclergy was to haveEast and West cometogether for a bonspielmuch like they were doing in the Eastat five different majorcenten. When there was no intereston the part ofthe Westemen in taveling Eastfor one of thoseevents, Don madearangements through the late Grant Smith and a few othersin theWinnipeg churches' curling club to meetin Winnipegin thesummer of 1977. Out of this meetingarrangements werc madeto hold a "Conspiel" there at the sametime as the SilverBroom World Men's and Women's Championship games were being piayed at the WinnipegArena. April 5-13,1978. Attimes otherthan when the SilverBrcom games wercon, the clergywould meet to havetheir own bonspieland to possiblydo some studyat Udted College.There would be a banquetand awarding ofprizes, also an East/ west gamebefore heading for home. Thewinner would receive a trophygiven by the United Chuch Observer. At theclosing banquet ofthis first East/ Westcurling event in Winnipeg,a list of suggestionsthat might be consideredguiding principles for future oneswas pres€nted by an ad hop committeeconsisting of Gerry Ward, Clif McMwtry, Andy Danholmand FraserMuldrew. Thesemet with generalacceptance, and a committeefrom Calgary Clergy Curling Club was askedto makearrangements for anoth€rbriar on March 1980at the time ofth€ MacdonaldBrier Curling Championshipsthere. Chaptertwo ofthe Friars' Bdar Book writt€n by CliffMcMurtry, describesthe giant stepsthat resultedftom the creativity and energyofthe CalgaryClergy Curling Club: . Thename "Friars' Briar" wasbom out of an off-handreference by oneof Don's fellow presswriters; . the witty logo, sketchedby CatherineRobbins of Knox United Churchin Calgary, was adoptedand madeinto a metal plrli . an eleganttrophy, completewith sturdy carrying case,was presentedby the CalgaryCurling Club; . a simpleletter head,created by Jim Taylorwas adopted by the fledgling association: 161 . ContinuingEducation was removed from theagenda and fellowship became lmportant. Twenty four rinks participatedand severalspouses were prcsent. Hugh Chr:istmaswas centralin manyofth€ plansmade and executed at this historicalevent! Contraryto an initial decisionthat this East/ Westmeeting ofclergy cudersconvene every secondyear, the momentulnofeach new Briar suggestedthat we cometogether everyyear. And soit hasgone, with theexception of 1988,when our attemptto stagea Briarat the siteofthe Labatt'sBrier in Chicoutimi,Quebec had to be cancelleddue to lack of registations, cost and transportationdiffi culties.

She emigrated with her family to Rocky Mountain House in Alberta Canada in 1947, but the family returned to England after spending one winter in Canada. June returned to school in Leeds and completed her high school at the age of 16. She took a job with a local company who, in response to her request, agreed to send her for accountant training. When June's father died at a young age, she talked her mother into again emigrating to Canada, but this time to Burnaby BC. However, once again they were homesick for England, and returned after only a few months in Canada. After returning to Leeds in 1957, June obtained a position in the accounting department of sewing machine factory there. She married Ron Franklin, who worked as sewing machine technician, at the same factory, in 1959. They immigrated to Vancouver, Canada in 1965 where Ron started his own business which sold and serviced industrial sewing machines and cutting equipment.

It covers the period from shortly after the intro- duction of anesthesia until modern times. We have attempted to provide an exhaustive compilation of available data, so that a repos- itory of information will exist for future medical historians. We have also attempted to make the book an enjoyable reading experi- ence for the average individual interested in medical history, in part by telling anecdotes about many of the people who had a role in this history. The book is divided into two parts. The first chapters describe the development of anesthesia in Oregon from different perspec- tives. These include the early period, the advent of anesthesiologists and the Oregon Society of Anesthesiology (OSA), the complete development of anesthesia delivered by nurse anesthetists (CRNAs), dental anesthesia, examples of types of anesthesia practice, and a historical perspective of Oregon anesthesiology, including brief biographical sketches of some early pioneers and some of the more influential anesthesiologists in the state.

    A BRIEF HISTORY OF NOVA SCOTIA CURLING A BRIEF HISTORY OF NOVA SCOTIA CURLING A BRIEF HISTORY OF NOVA SCOTIA CURLING 1 Table of Contents • A BRIEF HISTORY OF NOVA SCOTIA CURLING ♦ Nova Scotia Teams Winning Canadian Championships ♦ JUNIOR MEN'S ♦ NSLCA JUNIOR WOMEN'S CHAMPIONS ♦ MIXED ♦ BRIER TANKARD TROPHY ♦ NSLCA OPEN CHAMPIONS ♦ SENIOR MEN'S ♦ NSLCA SENIOR WOMEN'S CHAMPIONS A BRIEF HISTORY OF NOVA SCOTIA CURLING The first organization of curling clubs into an association took place in Scotland on July 25th, 1838. The organization was called the Grand Caledonian Curling Club. Five years later, in 1843, Her Majesty, Queen Victoria gave permission to use the word Royal. The word Grand, being considered superfluous, was dropped, and since that time has been the Royal Caledonian Curling Club. The Royal Caledonian Curling Club bestowed the powers of a Branch on the Halifax Curling Club in 1851. This authority was given up in December of 1852 when the Halifax Curling Club, the Halifax Thistle Curling Club, and the Dartmouth Curling Club formed the Nova Scotia Branch of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club. In February 1852, the Pictou Curling Club became a member. The New Caledonian Curling Club of Pictou and the New Glasgow Curling Club were admitted to membership in 1854. Antigonish was admitted to membership in 1856. The Nova Scotia Branch was active until the year 1862. It became inactive from 1863 until 1867. After having held three executive meetings in January and February 1867, it became dormant until it's revival in 1904. The first curling game of record arranged by the Nova Scotia Branch was between Halifax, Thistle, and Dartmouth Clubs on January 1st, 1851 at 10:00 a.m.
