The Evolving Pattern That is Stella Atkins

Imagine your doctor having eyes like
Superman's. What an advance that would be for medical science.
Superman has x-ray vision, infrared vision, and several other "visions."
He can peer inside you and detect the tiniest atomic particles. A physician
with that kind of vision would be able to see the first individual cancer
cell form in a tissue, or spot the first altered brain cell that might
signal a future of multiple sclerosis.
Ever young, ever optimistic, gazing west - the new statue of Terry
Fox stands on the grass in the middle of the Academic Quadrangle. Generations
of graduating students will pass the statue as they make their way to
convocation ceremonies and the start of their new lives.

Len Norris.
Trevor Lautens described Norris as "a kind of walking Magna Carta
- an Englishman, though long Canadian, who knows his rights, respects
those of others, values his privacy, and tends his own hedges and garden."
