Film - "Saskatchewan Our University"

Filming of "Saskatchewan Our University" by Crawley Films Ltd. in the Memorial Union Building (MUB). Cameras and lights pointed at students wearing large brimmed hats.

Bio/Historical Note: First shown to the public in January 1959, ‘Saskatchewan Our University’ was produced by Crawley Films to mark the 50th anniversary of university classes. With a running time of 27 minutes, the film documents several aspects of campus life including scenes with the Cobalt-60, the betatron with Dr. Sylvia Fedoruk, Dr. Thorberger Thorvaldson and cement research, Emrys Jones directing a play, and W.P. Thompson, University President, speaking at Convocation. The Golden Jubilee was a year-long celebration that included a Royal visit, hosting the Learned Societies, a six-week summer music festival, the world premiere of a W.O. Mitchell play and open houses, public lectures and a special convocation. The film was seen by thousands of people in dozens of Saskatchewan locales as part of special "University Nights" organized across the province.
