Members of the Shuttleworth Mathematical Society, front row (l to r); Dr. Burnett, William Hayward McEwen, Dr. McEwen; George H. Ling, dean, Arts and Science; and H. Sharp.

Bio/Historical Note: The Shuttleworth Mathematical Society was designed to give students interested in mathematics an opportunity to meet in an informal setting, and was open to all students who had completed one math class and were registered in a second. The Society was originally formed in November 1916 as the University Mathematical Society. It was renamed in honour of Roy Eugene Shuttleworth, a brilliant honours student who had been the first president of the organization. Shuttleworth was born in 1896 in Leavenworth, Washington. He was a student at the University of Saskatchewan. He served as a private with the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (Eastern Ontario Regiment). Shuttleworth died in combat during World War I on 26 August 1918 at Vimy Ridge, France. His name is inscribed on the Vimy Memorial. The society has been inactive for many years.

Bio/Historical Note: Georgina Esther King was the first female student registered in the University of Saskatchewan. She graduated with a degree in English in 1913, the first year for students who completed their entire time at the U of S. The April 1913 Convocation issue of The Sheaf indicates Georgina was a member of the Glee Club, a councillor in the Arts and Science Literary Society Executive, and president of the Pente Kai Deka Society. The class prophecy: “Miss G.E. King, teacher of art, will give lessons in china painting at her studio on Tor Hill.” Georgina King was born 28 April 1887 near Regina, Northwest Territories on Tor Hill, the family farm on Boggy Creek. Georgina married Edmund Sears Mandeville (1887-1962) in 1916. Jean Gordon Bayer, assistant professor of English at the U of S, was a bridesmaid. Georgina met her husband who worked with the Regina Water System facilities located on the King property. Janet Frances Mandeville was born in 1917 and her siblings Esther Ridley Mandeville Hickey (1918-2008) and Malcolm King Mandeville (1920-1926) soon followed. The young family relocated to Florida in 1925 after Malcolm suffered a stroke and a physician recommended he find a milder climate. He visited British Columbia but found it too cold, and after eleven trips by train they moved to St. Petersburg, Florida. In January 1926, Georgina and her three children went down to Coffee Pot Bayou and while wading got caught in the water. Janet and Esther were able to get out, but Georgina and Malcolm were pulled under and drowned. Janet almost went under going back into the water to retrieve her doll. The two sisters, age eight and seven, were found wandering in the area by workmen and taken home. The girls were reared by Georgina’s older sister, Janet Catherine King Estrich (1917-2001), and their father. Georgina and Malcolm are buried at Royal Palm South Cemetery, Saint Petersburg, Florida.

Bio/Historical Note: From the Greek for ‘five and ten,’ Pente Kai Deka was created on 8 April 1911 with the first 15 women students on campus – five “big sisters” and ten “little sisters.” Every woman entering the University automatically became a member. Eventually the group became its own directorate within the Student Representative Council, and the PKD president, the vice-president of the SRC. Activities of the group included a Big Sister-Little Sister Dance, June in January, Jeanboree, a Spring Tea and a Frosh Week fashion show. As the sexual revolution loomed large in the late 1960s women on campus grew increasingly ambivalent toward the group, which had been seen by many female students as irrelevant and antiquated since midway through the decade. It was this attitude, as well as the sheer increase in the number of women and students in general at the University by the late 1960s that led to the group’s demise after the 1968-1969 academic year.

Bio/Historical Note: Musical performance began at the University of Saskatchewan in October 1909 with the formation of the Literary Society of the College of Arts and Science, a student group which, together with debates and lectures, organized musical numbers and variety shows for student enjoyment. It has published a collection of College songs, trained its members to sing them in concert; concocted a College Yell, and has inaugurated what will be a most important event in the future, an Oratorical and Essay contest.

BBio/Historical Note: Green and white were established as the official colours of U of S sports teams in 1909-1910 by Reginald Bateman, a native of Ireland and the first English professor at the University of Saskatchewan. But the Huskies name did not appear at that time. Teams were generally referred to as “varsity” or “the green and white” when they played or appeared in media. The name Huskies was included in an article in the 20 September 1932 Star-Phoenix: “The Varsity Stadium yesterday morning saw the advance guard of over twenty gridiron Huskies swing into action.” The origin of the Huskie name is unclear. One of the earliest images of players wearing sweaters with ‘Huskies’ on across the front was in the 1932-1933 Greystone yearbook, showing the men’s hockey team in uniforms with the new name. By 1937 women’s teams were generally referred to as Huskiettes.
