Bereik en inhoud

John G. Diefenbaker, University Chancellor, making presentation of an honourary Doctor of Laws degree to Dr. Kenneth Frank Wells at Convocation held at Centennial Auditorium.

Bio/Historical Note: Dr. Kenneth Frank Wells was born at Swan River, Manitoba and graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1938 with Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and Veterinary Surgery degrees. After practicing general veterinary medicine at Weston, Ontario, he was appointed to the Faculty at Macdonald College, University of McGill, Ste. Anne de Bellevue, Quebec. He later abandoned the purely academic life and chose a career with the Health of Animals Division of the Canada Department of Agriculture. Dr. Wells was named associate chief veterinarian in 1949 having responsibility for contagious diseases control. When foot and mouth disease struck the livestock population of Saskatchewan in 1952, Dr. Wells was entrusted with the task of directing the program of eradication. Under his direction the campaign was so successful that Canadian meats and livestock were restored to world markets within 12 months. Dr. Wells was an active force in the establishment of the Western College of Veterinary Medicine, representing the federal government throughout the negotiations that resulted in the significant federal contribution to the capital costs.
