J.S. Fulton Labratory - Exterior
Looking northeast at the J.S. Fulton Lab.
Bio/Historical Note: The Virus Laboratory Building was constructed from 1947-1948, and was designed by the architectural firm of Webster and Gilbert. It was located on what is now a grassy area in front of the Western College of Veterinary Medicine. The construction of the building was financed with proceeds from the sale of the equine encephalomyelitis vaccine. The disease equine encephalomyelitis, more commonly known as "sleeping sickness," first appeared in Saskatchewan in 1935. It recurred in 1937 and 1938, when it killed an estimated 13,000 to 15,000 horses. The vaccine was developed by Dr. Fulton in the late 1930s while he was still head of the Veterinary Sciences Department, and was first sold by the University in 1939. While commercial production companies in the United States were selling a similar vaccine for $1.80 per dosage, the University undersold them at 75 cents – which accounted for all the funding available for construction. Dr. Fulton also demonstrated that a human disease previously diagnosed as non-paralytic poliomyelitis was in fact caused by the same virus, at which time he produced a vaccine for humans. Demolition of the J.S. Fulton Virus Laboratory was completed in 1989.

Faculty - Retirement Banquet - Dr. Leslie Neatby

Bio/Historical Note: Dr. Leslie Hamilton Neatby was born in London on 16 May 1902. In 1906 the family emigrated to Canada and his father set up practice in Earl Grey, Saskatchewan. The family moved to Saskatoon in 1919. Having graduated from the University of Saskatchewan in 1925 with honours in History and Latin. Neatby taught in Saskatchewan schools until 1940 when he joined the Canadian Armed Forces for active duty overseas. After the war Neatby recommenced his academic career by enrolling at the University of Toronto. In 1950, at age 48, he was awarded a Doctorate in Classics. From 1951 to 1967 Neatby was Head of the Department of Classics at Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia. It was at Acadia that Neatby found enough leisure time to embark on his life’s ambition of writing about Maritime history. A few years before joining the staff at Acadia an article in Macleans magazine entitled, “Franklin’s Folley” ignited his latent interest in Arctic exploration. While he strongly disagreed with the article, he pursued the Franklin search material by reading Back’s adventure of Great Fish River. All of this lead to his first book, “In Quest of the North—West” which appeared in 1958. Neatby came home to the U of S in 1967, where he was on the faculty of the Department of Classics until his retirement in 1970. He then assumed the position of Historical Associate at the Institute for Northern Studies at the U of S, a position that he retained until the demise of that institution in 1982. Neatby was awarded an honourary Doctor of Laws degree by the U of S in 1974. Neatby died in Saskatoon in 1997 at age 95.

The collection consists primarily of correspondence, photographs and memorabilia documenting Allison’s friendship and political association with John Diefenbaker – starting with Allison’s advice to Diefenbaker about his leadership convention in 1948.
