Born in Hannah, North Dakota in 1902, Ginevra (Ginger) Irene Catherwood and her family moved to a homestead just outside Scott, Saskatchewan, four years later. Ginger likely learned to skate and play hockey on frozen sloughs. She also played baseball and excelled as pitcher. Catherwood entered the University of Saskatchewan on a scholarship in 1919. It was on the ice, as captain of the Varsity women’s hockey team, where she excelled. Catherwood’s arrival at the U of S coincided with the beginning of inter-varsity competition in women’s hockey. During the 1920-1921 season, playing against the University of Manitoba, Catherwood scored five goals in the first period and finished the game with three more in a 9-1 victory. She netted four goals in the first 11 minutes in a match against the University of Alberta. The final score was Saskatchewan 7 (Catherwood 6) and Alberta 1. The Saskatoon Star-Phoenix declared the U of S team the unofficial champion of university women’s hockey that season (there was no formal league at the time.) Opposing teams quickly learned that Catherwood was a scoring threat every time she had the puck. During the 1921-1922 season, she was hurt in the first period in a game in Edmonton and left the ice. The team squeaked out a 2-1 win. She was still nursing her injury in the next game against Manitoba and played defence in a 2-2 tie. Catherwood graduated with a three-year Arts degree in 1922. After attending Normal School in Saskatoon, she found work as a teacher in the Plenty, Saskatchewan district.

Ginger was rumoured to have accompanied Ethel when she left Canada for the United States sometime around 1932. Ginger Catherwood later married English-born Charles Mitchell in Toronto in the fall of 1933.

In 1906, Ethel Brittain Rutter (1876-1964), PhB, MA, was widowed with two small children. Rutter received the Gold Medal for proficiency in Household Science from Macdonald College, McGill University, in 1908. She went on to serve on the faculty of Macdonald College. In 1916, Rutter joined the University of Saskatchewan to teach Household Science. Taking summers to study and a year’s leave, she earned the Bachelor of Philosophy degree from the University of Chicago and the Master of Arts degree from Columbia University. In 1928, the School of Household Science was established within the College of Arts and Science. Rutter was instrumental in setting up the degree program, and in 1929 was named Head of the School. She taught classes in food and nutrition, family relations and methods of teaching. To quote from the Canadian Home Economics Journal of March 1955: “Students in Mrs. Rutter’s classes recalled her insistence on accuracy, her high standards of workmanship, her apt phrasing and, above all, her enthusiasm for her subject.” Outside of the University, she encouraged the study of home economics in women’s organizations and constantly stressed the need for employing trained dietitians in hospitals. Upon her retirement in 1940, Professor Rutter was named Professor Emerita of the University of Saskatchewan. She was a Charter Member of the Canadian Dietetics Association (now Dietitians of Canada), Honorary Member of the Canadian Home Economics Association and Honorary Life Member of the McGill Graduate Society. The Rutter Prize was established in 1930 to recognize the most distinguished student in the graduating class of the College of Home Economics. The Rutter Medal now honours the most distinguished Bachelor of Science in Nutrition graduate. Rutter died in 1964; 'Rutter Crescent' in Greystone Heights is named in her honour.
