�FROM THE TOP
The "big news"

been the "big move" of the School of Forestry into the Braun
in or before 1986, this news may strike you as being
"too late", but rest assured that you will always be welcome to come back and "have a look", or
discuss a management or research problem you may have, or perhaps to consider graduate studies.
Our moving into the Braun Building has enabled us to design our teaching space as well as to
specify our research space. New facilities include our micro-processor equipped (50 units) forest
management laboratories, a fire control simulator room, and renovated space for wood technology,
pathology,
dendrology, taxonomy, soils, entomology, and wildlife
silviculture,
ecology,
management. The facilities for photogrammetry have been greatly augmented with the computer
based geographic information system in the Centre for the Application of Resources Information
Systems (CARIS). Speaking of computers, our micros will soon be linked by local area networks

a phrase, hardware and electronics do not a forestry school
make! The faculty, staff, and students are of paramount importance, and we have had some
important changes this past year. Eila Green ("the boss") was obliged to resign in November;
Kadie Chadwick joined us in December and Jane Masotti in January. Dr. Navratil resigned last
year, and Dr. E. Setliff took over forest pathology; Professor J. Tanz assumed the responsibilities
for photogrammetry and management in the diploma program; Professor John Blair has been on
long-term disability leave with a serious knee problem; Dennis Joyce has joined us as a Post
Doctorate Fellow working with Dr. Farmer; Sarah Thomson and Gary Macsemchuk joined us last
summer as mensuration and forest harvesting technologist, respectively; Teresa Zago completed
her term as silvicultural technologist; and research assistants Gwen O'Reilly and Madeline Maley
continue to work with Dr. Farmer and Dr. Parker. Like the curriculum, the faculty and staff are
in a state of dynamic change!
To all graduates, I'm sure I speak on behalf of all in the School of Forestry in wishing you the
best of luck in your personal and professional endeavours, and I trust you will maintain your
strong linkages with the School.

years played skidder and trees, they were then led over to the

forestry association's elegant swimming pool (AKA "the pits"). Here
each student was put through the gauntlet of second year students
along the length of the pits. The first year students that finally
emerged from the other end of the pits were slightly the worse for
wear but generally happy as they were now full-fledged forestry
students. Those that survived the pits joined 2nd year students by
the fire to wash the mud?? out of their mouths with a few
refreshments. This was a good day for all involved and will be

�Surviving third year was no

feat. After

two years

of having the Forestry Technical Writing Manual thrust
upon us, we reverted once again to more childish fancies

and underlined everything in red. But, bleary of eye and
weary of bone, at the end of the year we were all satisfied
that with the constraints placed upon us, we could not
have improved upon the volume (net merchantable) of
output which we achieved. Truly, in the words of a
classmate, "I survived third year" is an accomplishment of
which to be proud, and worthy of printing on a t-shirt.

�LUFA LECTURE SERIES
The World

Forestry lecture series, organized and run by Dr.

Carmean

in

1984-85, continued this year in association with several L.U.F.A. members.
Lectures on forest management, acid rain, Indian claims on forested land
and other topics were included in the World Forestry series. Our sincere

thanks are extended to lecturers, many of whom came from as far away as
Wisconsin, Toronto, and New Brunswick, and to the organizers for a job
well done.
Already, preparations are underway for the 86-87 lecture series, and it is
hoped that students and faculty will continue to support this worthwhile
project.

The Symposium Committee once again
put together a pertinent, well-organized and
professional symposium. The topic of "Tariffs and the Canadian Forest Industry" is
as pertinent today as it was at the time of
this symposium, and is likely to continue to
be an issue for some time to come. The lectures were well attended on both days by
students, faculty, industry,
officials.

The crosscut saw was the most spectacular tool and always the focus of a

a dead run was great sport and demanded smooth cooperation. The pulp piling
required skill, while the distance pulp toss tested the brawn of contestants as
well. Getting the three axe events done before our aim deteriorated was a race
against time. Perhaps someone will score in next year's axe throw if it is

���LUFA REVIEW
This past winter a wayward Outdoor Rec'r asked me if there really was such a thing as L.U.F.A.? So, I sat her
a Pj stump and, stuffing my pipe with some 1981 ARCTOSTAPHYLLOS UVA-URSI, I proceeded to
regale her with the following facts:

down on

"Back

in the fall of '85 there

occurred a gathering of woodsy types on the grounds of Lakehead University. These
days of arduous field work, a Hayride/BBQ took place and fun and frivolity
was the order of the day. Weeks later at an event known as "Crest Nite" four generations of foresters gathered to
perform the ancient ceremonial Boat Races at an institution that dates back beyond the dawn of L.U. foresters. Not
long after, these same crazed people convened to exercise initiating rites on the new clan members. The Mclntyre
River ran cold that day but spirits were high and smiles abounded.
"Within the month, the elite of the student lumberjacks hied themselves off to New Brunswick to prove the
existence of L.U.F.A. Only a month later, the tree people joined forces with the Florence Nightingales and staged a
Hawaiian LUAU that left people thirsting for a visit to the real islands.
"Another month passed and, when most university types were absorbed in books and studies, those wild and
wonderful woodwhackers held a fund-raiser for the Toys For Tots Christmas drive and worked with L.U.C.F. on a
Christmas food drive as well. Both were claimed a success. And they said we didn't care!
"Soon after the Christmas/ New Year break these same stick biters presented a public symposium on the effect of
U.S. tariffs on Canadian lumber exports to make the public aware of the threat and impact on the forest industry
nationwide. A dinner /dance followed and on the whole it was deemed a class event.
"In February, our tireless Woodsmen teams organized and ran an Intramural Woodsmen Competition open to the
University. It was the hit of the Winter Carnival, truly an A-l job!
"By mid-March it was time to officially recognize the eldest of the clan and bid them farewell and bonne chance.
So the Regenerates were honoured at the C.I.F. non-Ring Ceremony and dinner/dance. Soon afterward a similar
tribute was paid to the graduating technical members of the clan, the Terminators.
"Finally, the Forestry Folk Night took place with the help and participation of numerous forestry school staff.
Thanks to those who participated and attended, a donation of $300 was made to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
"Meanwhile, throughout the year while all these main events occurred many dedicated individuals gave of
themselves and their time to assist in the orchestration of a weekly lecture series as well as produce this publication.
"Also, many foresters teamed up and participated in intramural sport leagues, further making our presence

were hopeful future

foresters. After 10

known."
The Rec'r commented

that it was really only a small handful of people that did all of this. Slowly I shook my head
and informed her that organizers are always a necessity but that the strength of any group comes from its members.
And so, even though a few set up the aforementioned events, had it not been for the clan there would have been no
need to do it and if not for the clan there would have been no success.
But there was success in the 85/86 year of L.U.F.A. because L.U.F.A. is all of the student foresters and a force to
be reckoned with.
I wish to thank all those who gave of themselves to help make the year what it was, and on behalf of the 85/86
executive, I wish

COMMENTS
We

have tried to make you laugh, cry, and spend thoughtful moments recollecting the people, the
concerns and the ideas of 1985/86. That, of course, is a very big "WE". To all the fine people who
worked on this publication-in photography, advertising and sales, and layouts- to our advertisers, and
to you the reader, Thank you.
The happy thoughts and memories of camaraderie and friendship, and the kinship we feel in our
chosen profession are marred only by the sad loss of two of our classmates. In August of 1985, Ivar
Luksep, then only 19, lost his life in a tragic automobile accident. The car in which he was a passenger
of control and struck a wall. Ivar died instantly; the driver was seriously injured. The
summer, in June of 1986, Raimo Kanala, 23 years old and a recent graduate of the degree
program, was returning home late one evening from the Landmark. A pedestrian on the highway, he
was struck by a car and killed. Sadly, alcohol was a factor in both of these accidents.
Although already dedicated to the Art of Forestry, I would like to extend that dedication here and
now to Ivar and Raimo. They are fondly remembered and sadly missed. May we never have the

COMMENTS

For those of you graduating this year, it seems a bit ironic to see or hear of new installations in the School, and
you are not going to be here to enjoy them. However, this is characteristic of any dynamic faculty, and in
this respect, the School of Forestry is no different than any other. The major installation this past year or so was the
computer-based geographic information system in our new Centre for Application of Resources Information Systems
(Caris) under the management of Prof. H. Westbroeck. The B.I.L.D. grant for the hardware and software was
$250,000, and having powered-up on December 1, 1983, Prof. Westbroeck and his group are striving to have the
system on-line for resources analysis projects as quickly as possible. A second major grant for $100,000 per year for
three years was received from NSERC for development of tree breeding and forest genetics research with Dr. R.
Farmer as principal scientist, working with a team with Profs. P. Knowles, A. Macdonald, W. Parker and K.C.
Yang. And late in 1984, under Prof. C. Benson's initiatives, we received notice of a $116,500 grant to equip our
undergraduate forest management teaching laboratories with an array of 40 microprocessors, complete with several
printers, two plotters and two digitizing pads.
The University has now completed a major study of space requirements and, if all goes well, the School of
Forestry will be moving completely to the Braun Building by the end of 1985. We will share the building with the
Computer Centre, and the move will not only give us additional space, but also our first opportunity to design, or
re-design, all our teaching and research laboratories.
For 1984-85, Profs. R. Clarke, H. Cumming, and T. Eiber were on sabbatical leave and the School had Profs. G.
Redmond, T. Richmond, H. Kulman and P. McAlister to take their places. We have all enjoyed their inputs, and I
hope you, the students, have found their contributions interesting and challenging. For the coming year, no one will
be on leave, and so we are going to lose the very significant contributions of Prof. J. Flowers. I'm sure I speak for
everyone in extending our heartfelt thanks to him for his contributions to academic and development objectives.
And finally, but perhaps most importantly, the School has "departmentalized", with program chairmen appointed
for the diploma program (Prof. D. Richardson), the degree program (Dr. G. Murchison), and in the postgraduate
degree program (Dr. K. Brown). This restructuring of the School, together with comprehensive curricula reviews,
will add materially to the quality of our programs and the opportunities for maintaining or improving our studentfaculty interaction. I hope that you will agree with me that the School is doing well, and that it is looking forward
to a healthy and exciting future. I also hope that you as graduates, will always feel welcome, and that you will drop
in whenever possible.

���FIELD SCHOOL
This September, hoardes of budding foresters
once again descended into the unsuspecting
wilderness of Northern Ontario. Not a leaf was
unturned in the first years' quest for
left
samples. The arboretum was left bare in their
wake. The second years' scoured the countryside
with their pocket stereoscopes, searching for the
secret of photogrametry. Let's hope they found
it! The third years' peered into every crack and
crevice in the forest floors and they discovered
dirt.

has been a long, hard haul but finally our graduating

great class spirit and united in many activities. Our broomball
team made a valiant attempt at standing on their feet and our
hockey team skated circles around their opposition. With

regards to the academic side of things, well, let's forget that!
I'm sure it's safe to say that we are all glad it is over. Best of

at the

Ed Olsen,

Assistant Arborist for the

Thunder Bay-Atikokan riding.
Dr. Jorgensen, Canada's 'Father of Urban Forestry', stated during
the lecture series how he first defined urban forestry in 1965: 'Urban
forestry does not deal entirely with city trees or with single tree
management, but rather with the management of the entire area
influenced by and utilized by the urban populations.'
The graduating foresters at Lakehead should remember the importance of trees in the city, and encourage the development of
sound urban forestry programs in their own communities.
We would like to thank all of the committee members for their
great help in putting on a fine presentation. Special thanks go to

�THE B.Sc.F.
GRADUATES
OF

1985

This was the final year of school for the majority
of the class and they diligently set about the task of
having a good time. Most of field school was spent
in the Wagon Wheel drinking, or at least wishing
we were in the Wagon Wheel drinking (especially
when Prof. Day was driving). The rest of the
semester was spent doing silviculture assignments
and finding excuses for a good party. After
Christmas, management plans kept most of the
class busy right up until January 21. Fortunately,
the Spoons came to town that night to help many
of us to celebrate. After that, theses became the
well-worn topic of many conversations. Time was
still taken out for the more important things in life
such as tobogganing (right Jacquie?), the Symposium dance and of course the unforgettable (?)
ring ceremony (right Darlene?)! Thanks go to Ray
(Daddy) Wagner for taking the mug shots for the
class.

Congratulations are in order for the entire class
their graduation. Four years of hard work went
into your degree and its something to be proud of!

Eleven musical acts of wide-ranging appeal covered music from
across Canada and around the world. Master of ceremonies, J.D.
Steele, commandeered the show, bringing the audience three hours
of spirited and talent-filled entertainment. Performers hailed from
nearly the entire school of forestry: both tech classes, three degree
classes, graduates and faculty. In spite of some lighting problems,
all
performers shone in the presence of about 150 audience
members. Although licenced for the first time, all earnings came
from the door and the sale of food and drinks prepared by a host
of much-appreciated volunteers. In all $180 was raised and sent to
the local Cystic Fibrosis Research Foundation.

Students usually spend 2 years in the program before
obtaining a Master of Science Degree in Forestry.
Academically, these 2 years are spent taking a minimum
of 3 graduate-level courses and completing a thesis based
on original research. In 1984, 24 graduate students were
registered in the program. The group of students is an
interesting mix of Canadian students and those from
other countries including Argentina, Tanzania, Poland
and China. The students meet and work in their study
rooms, attend classes together and take part in such
activities as hockey, roller skating and socializing.

let

us take a

one just past.

remember 1984-85

an active and dynamic year for the forestry community. Lakehead's
determined executive was at work throughout the academic year attempting to keep the student populus informed, entertained and spirited. All three were evidenced in our successful
bid to save the office. The toils of this year's executive were matched by the efforts of an equally diligent and
ambitious group who were responsible for such successes as a lecture series, symposium, this fine publication and
countless other endeavours. It is this group, en masse, that is wholly responsible and deserving of credit for
providing all LUFA members with a distinctive and pleasurable year.
Please note that much of what is chronicled in this review has already been brilliantly displayed in this year's
edition of Harvest.
LUFA functions can be divided into three categories: social, sports and academics. Socially, LUFA experienced a
frenetic beginning. Initiation rites were retained and all first years were escorted through the ritualistic and infamous
pits. Orientation continued with a successful night at the Crest (drowning field school thirst) and a wild hayride with
the nurses at Murillo. Even the Corn Roast was a success - complete with corn this year! As in past years the
foresters combined with LUNA to host a LUAU in the main cafeteria. Another well-attended event was the Third
Annual Forestry Folk Night where students and faculty combined forces to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis. LUFA's
generosity was also extended to two unfortunate classmates who both lost their homes and belongings to fire.
On the sports scene, the Woodsmen teams were active this year placing well at the University of New Brunswick's
competition and hosting their own Forestry Day Meet here in March. Associated with this was the Annual Bushman's Brawl held this year in the study - undoubtedly the finest event of the year! Poor weather hindered a LUFAorganized ball tournament in the fall. As for the KAM-AM canoe race, to steal a phrase from the Woodchips and
Sawdust, "the race was cancelled due to lack of enthusiasm and entries". Attracted, no doubt, by Kakabeka Cream
and Ruby Rouge, an overwhelming number of teams participated in the Intramural Woodsmen Competition. Apart
from these numerous events, many forestry teams competed in various LUSU-organized intramural sport leagues.
It was a busy year for academic endeavours within the school of forestry. Numerous guest speakers visited the
university, a weekly lecture series was initiated and a trip to the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association field
demonstration were a few of the highlights. LUFA had a hand in this busy year by presenting a lecture series on
urban forestry entitled "Trees in the City" and a symposium on "Spruce Budworm and our Future Forests". A
forestry student gained a seat on the LUSU Board of Directors and degree II student is on his way to the
Netherlands on a summer work exchange. The year drew to a close academically as the degree IV students received
their rings (and then began writing their theses) and the diploma graduated made plans for their graduation
celebration. All of LUFA extends its congratulations and sincere best wishes to all graduating students.
Already a new executive is in place and ready to meet the challenge of 1985-86. To all, from participant to
organizer, to anyone who contributed to LUFA in any way, thank you and let's get behind next year's council to
make '85-'86 even better.

COMMENTS
April, 1985

Dear Reader,

The

become a reality. I am happy to say that this year we benefited from the
year levels: technology, degree and master's. This book really is a team effort,

12th edition of Harvest has finally

from

many have

contributed to its success.
project of this magnitude requires dedication and patience

from all concerned. What it finally boils
be concerned. Financial backing and technical equipment are important parts of such
projects,
if the people component is lacking. HARVEST '84 was a victim of such a situation. The
forestry tradition of annually producing yearbooks was broken last year, due to student apathy. A whole year of
memories is gone forever; the people, the places and the activities. We foresters are the only faculty to produce
yearbooks at Lakehead. It is something to be proud of.
In this edition of Harvest, we have tried to emphasize the theme of "moving into the future", stepping from
today into tomorrow. For those of us graduating this year, "tomorrow" has finally arrived. It is now time to put to
the test the knowledge we have gained during our past years at Lakehead. In recent months, the need for intensifying our forestry practices has been repeatedly voiced nationally. The public is perhaps slowly realizing just
what forestry means to them. The skeptics will say: "Humbug, it's no use, you are fighting a losing battle". The
final outcome rests on our shoulders, to meet the challenge of the future.
In closing, I would like to thank all those who have contributed to HARVEST '85, your efforts have made the
book better. Special thanks to Raymond Wagner and Teresa Holla for always being there when I needed them.
Thanks are also extended to all our advertisers and patrons. Your support is greatly appreciated.
Finally, a note on enthusiasm written by the famous poet and auto maker, Henry Ford:
You can do anything if you have enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes rise to the stars. It is
the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait, the grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to
execute your ideas. Enthusiasts are fighters. They have fortitude. They have staying qualities. Enthusiasm is at the
bottom of all progress. With it, there is accomplishment. Without it, there are only alibis.

�Meet the Director
TRANSITIONS The first graduating class of 1973 is having its tenth anniversary reunion in 1983, and by the quirk of our numbering system, the eleventh class will be graduating. Thus, 1983 is both the end of the first ten and the beginning of
the next ten years, and I feel particularly honoured to have been able to join the group.
Graduates, students, and staff have achieved much in this time, and as the School continues to develop its three
programs, curricula and administration are going to be changing to reflect current and forecasted needs. Thus it is
planned to have full faculty status in the near future, and to have program chairman responsible for the technical,
degree, and post-graduate programs. Knowing exactly what is going to be needed in the future is, needless to say,
not possible, but the faculty believes we will be able to maintain the excellence of our programs, and contribute to
the excellence of our graduate in spite of the severe financial constraints currently being experienced by all
Universities.

mentioned " ... contributing to the excellence of our graduates ..." because we only contribute. The intrinsic
you as students, and graduates, including your motivation, academic prowess, sense of identity, and yes,
esprit de corps, all constitute the major contributions to your excellence. One recent example was the awarding by
the Society of American Foresters of the Award of Merit for "Harvest 1981". Your publication ranked 4 in 16 for
North America, and I believe all students have a right to be justly proud, especially when the School of Forestry
yearbook is the only one at Lakehead.
For the future, the usual foggy crystal ball is, with current economic uncertainties, virtually opaque. I nonetheless
still feel that technically competent, ecologically and economically sensitive, and socially aware foresters will remain
in high demand. Now that some of the 1973 graduates have gained valuable experience, they are becoming actively
involved in our teaching programs. I trust that those of you graduating in 1983 won't feel obliged to wait 10 years to
make your inputs because we need them on a continuing basis in order to maintain our quality and viability. I hope
you agree, and that you will always feel welcome.

�Following in the tradition of For. Deg. I classes, we have retained the true spirit of full-fledged apathy. For
example, we ha\e not as yet acquired a class name, although certain ideas, such as "The Psycads" have been
proposed. Perhaps in the near future (at least before 1986!) we'll find some word to describe us!
All in all, we had a great time getting to know each other, in class and after class (especially through recreational
cruising!). Next year we might even shock ourselves and get involved in some activities! No matter what, I'm sure
we'll have as good a time as we did this year.

�Who's on

First???

It
was the nippy October morning after the Corn
Roast when the Forestry teams slugged onto the field.
The day was overcast, and although hung over, a spark
of indominable forester spirit was on the fields. The
games were an array of baseball expertise outfielding
incompetence, and beer. In the end, it was the Tech II
all-stars up against the best of the Coureurs de Bois.
The result was the Degree II team going down to a
rather crushing defeat, after a day of Calsbergs.

The sky was cloudy and so were a few minds that

our best efforts

sensing their inevitable defeat, hailed the

eating granola bars and drinking. The one casualty of

'watering the grass' from mid-stream but luckily were
pulled from the chilly waters of the McKellar.

we found

the Outdoor Rec's had finished first
and second again. Ken and Dick Morden lead with a
time of 1 hr. 49 min., followed by Bernie Brault and
Angle Walton at 2 hr. 11 min. Coming in a close third
to uphold the foresters honour were Peter Harpe and
Peter Green (better take the portage next year guys!).

�Shopping Kart Race
Eight teams entered this year's race, held on October
and a total of 7 teams finished. The race began
and ended on the pottery road and was a relay-style
race. Highlights of the race: at the first bump, almost all
carts were involved in a pileup (luckily most riders wore
helmets); the ramp in front of the library proved to be
too narrow for one extremely long cart.
The winner of the best decorated cart was the Hell's
Angel team with their souped up cart. For an unprecedented 3rd year in a row, first place was snatched
20, 1982,

by the fleet-footed Colt 45'ers. Maybe the consumption
of pre-race fuel helped them win. Anal Pores picked up
second place and Team Rossi came in third.
Next year's race should be a thriller with the OLD
Colt 45 team attempting to hold off the YOUNG Anal
Pores.

��"From

the Top'

Well, the "new kid in town", as I have been called has now been with you 14 months, and finds himself in a
hazardous situation of thinking that he knows what's going on! While that may not be the case exactly, I do have a
much better idea of the vitality and strengths of the students of Lakehead University School of Forestry and of the
institution itself.

This past year, we have had more forestry students enrolled than at any of the other five Canadian schools.
Although we don't have the largest faculty, we do have a hard working one. In addition to their teaching responsibilities, they have initiated a review of our curricula, engendered about $350,000 worth of research grants and
contracts, prepared major equipment and research development proposals and participated in a university-wide
review and planning exercise. The prospects for the School are very promising, but our successes haven't been
without losses. Prof. D. Mead resigned last year, and while Professors David, Hazenberg, and Yang are on sabbatical leave, we have had to scramble. Professors D. Walker and N. Phillips have been welcomed additions to our
faculty, and we hope to acquire more like them. Larry Bockus and Joe Kapron joined the technical side of the team,
and our latest member is Alvina Faykes, who is helping in the front office.
We are planning to upgrade the equipment in the remote sensing and photo-interpretation laboratories, and to
equip the forest management laboratories with data analysis equipment, and the biological laboratories with plant
storage and analysis facilities. These improvements are the first steps we are taking to develop and improve all of
our programs.
To some of you, this may appear to have come too late. But despite current market problems, the demand for all
types of foresters is going to increase. The era of the managed forest is dawning and the educational training obtained through us must be first class. Please remember that your education begins rather than ends here. The
demands made on you by society, the profession, and the forest for its "conservation" (i.e. wise use) are going to be
very great. Consider the doors always open for more Lakehead experience.
In the past year some progress has been made towards our mutual goal of making Lakehead's forestry program
second to none. You, as students, and graduates, make a significant contribution to the achievement of that goal. I
no longer feel like the "new kid in town" - thank you for your welcome.

Lectures '81
Speakers receive tokens of our appreciation.

SBS

This year's Weyerhaeuser Lecture Series topic was
the
"Nutritional Status and
Fertilization
in
the
Forest". The event began on the eve of November 19
with Dr. E.H. White of the University of New York.
Dr. White's informative lecture explained the amazing
effects of fertilization observed in his at the U. of N.Y.

The

10 ft. per year growth of Carolina Poplar was the
most impressive point.
Dr. I. Morrison from the Great Lakes Forest
Research Centre spoke on the second evening. This talk
was of the current research on fertilization in the
Boreal Forest. The final point was that fertilization is
still

in the

experimental stage.

and the speakers met at a social
and hot discussion over cold beer.

What?

The 14th annual LUFA Symposium dealt with "Public
Awareness of Forestry and it's Implications." The two
days of lectures were interesting, "eye-opening", and
somewhat disconcerting. The general consensus of
speakers was that foresters must shake the image of
hidden profession and impress, upon the public,

the

the

importance of forestry to this country. Bill Fullerton,
Ross Howard, Neils Carl, and Ted McHale indicated that
Government as well as industry must publicize what they
are doing to improve the present situation of the forest
sector. At this time foresters do not have a good public
image, particularly during times of conflict with special
interest groups over such issues as the "Whitewater

On

Friday the 5th of

March

1982, the tenth graduating

from Lakehead University gathered at
the Airlane Hotel for the annual ring ceremony of the
CIF. The evening was highlighted by dinner, speeches, a
slide tape show, and of course the presentation of the
class of foresters

rings.

The most memorable

part of the evening comes in two
Krabbe's
speech
"Grecian Formula
Anyone?" (Sorry Crandall) and of course the memories
of stem analysis on white birch (Being certain to pile the
bolts neatly on the side of the road). The other
memorable part of the evening was the slide tape show
which managed to embarrass almost every member of the
graduating class. Fortunately only one person had to do
parts,

some explaining to his parents. (I'd ditch that hat Ian!)
The final question that the ring ceremony brings to
mind is, did anybody count the bottles of wine that

made, but no one remembers what they were. Due to
heavy herbicide exposure, Ginkgoes rushed to local
pubs to dilute the effects. Between all these activities, a

Nineteen guys and girls van-danced for 36 hours in
an attempt to pass the time on the way to UNB's 18th
Inter-Collegiate Woodsmen Competition. Needless to
say, a good time was had by all as the green and red
'boxes' passed the miles away.
Weeks of practice fortunately paid off as Lakehead

was once again dominated at
Fibrosis,
Lakehead University by the Foresters.
Elizabeth DeGroot, a forestry Degree 111 student
and Shinerama Co-ordinator for 1979, reported that
Tech I (way to go Teachers!) had the largest turn-out
of shoe-shiners on September 28.
Once Dorothy Bush put on her clown act (doesn't
she always?) along with Gwen O'Reilly.
Prizes were awarded on a money-coUected-perperson basis. First place was captured with a day-long
effort by Tim Grant and Ugo Feunekes of Degree I.
Together, they collected $292.13. Last year's winner,
Hugh Hughson, Alumni Tech Graduate of 1979 now
in Natural Sciences II 1/2. picked up second place
with a total of $130.18. Third place was awarded to
Shannon Stone and Dave Wadsworth of Degree III.
They shined $204.29 worth of shoes.
Once again, thanks to all participants and
Cystic

organizers for putting a shine on

On that day, as on most, the foresters had great
enthusiasm. We out-numbered the engineers (who
believe that if equipped with a hand-held calculator
they can be a match for a forester with a chainsaw)
by a mile, and even offered a rematch. Instead, the
black-bottomed box boys stole the rope (along with
everything else in our office). Despite that, we are
still here and wiUing to test the floatability of an
engineer, this year or next. The engineers will never
stand a chance because although the models are
always being redesigned, the foresters adapt at an
incredible rate, without losing strength, vitality, or
spirit.

�The Great Race
The race of the century, and it was held right here at
Lakehead! On the bright and sunny Oct. 16 afternoon, 7
racing teams were lined up at the start, ready and waiting.
Count down, and then off!! Across the road and down
the sidewalk. Oooppsss!!! Yes, you were supposed to go
down the ramp, not over the railing; a slight casualty but
the race goes on. Up the stairs, change runners and hurry
to the finish line. It was a close encounter with the transit
bus (acts of God even happen in shopping cart races) so
Degree IV takes the lead and keeps it to the finish.
Racing in The Great Shopping Cart Race were none
other than Big Jim Slade with his harum. Snoopy and
(Yes) the Red Baron, one other Degree II team and one
entry each from Degree I, Tech II, Degree III and Degree
IV. Many thanks to SAFEWAY STORES for supplying
the racing vehicles and to Bill Wiltshire for delivering
them to L.U. and back.
Construction is already underway on a multi-million
dollar track for the 1981

��LUFAgate
On October 25, 1979, The LUFAgate affair was blown
wide open as forestry students joined forces to voice
their dissension at the fumble-fingered handling of the
affair by LUSU.
To refresh your memory ... the engineer's cannon was
misplaced
(cheers!
the
Group of Nine) on
to
Thanksgiving weekend. Following that, a forestry
pathology display was removed from the 3rd floor of the
Centennial Building (later recovered, but damaged). A
firecracker bomb was used in a poorly attempted
assassination try. Our path of escape from the CORN
ROAST was blocked by felled trees. Last but not least,
the LUFA office was entered by the Plumber's break
and enter squad. Furniture, trophies, yearbook supplies,
signs etc. were removed and a colourful stain was added

ATTENTION

to the floor.

On Oct. 24, LUFA was informed 2 hours before a
General Meeting that the club was temporarily "unclubbed" due to irreconcilable differences with our
friends next door. To put it mildly, we were pissed right
off, so on October 25 at 11:30 a.m., 70 rowdy foresters
voiced their discontent in a 2 hour sit-down shout-out
protest in front of the LUSU office. To further voice
our displeasure, the local paper and TV stations were
called in to cover our peaceful but noisy demonstration.
Well, the cannon is now back upon the Centennial
Building lawn and our furniture has been recovered, but
the memory lives on (and engineers still suck!).

�Forest Biomass
That was the topic of the 12th annual LUFA Symposium.
Dr. Harold Young opened the Symposium with a history
of the development of Forestry and the study of Biomass.
The talk was highlighted with a slide show.
On Saturday morning. Bill Raitanen talked about the
work he is doing with hybrid poplar in Southern Ont. and
on the silvacultural aspects of Forest Biomass. He showed
some really amazing slides, for example, a 9 year-old poplar
the

same

size as a

27 year-old Red Pine.

Dennis Bradley talked about his studies on Complete Tree
Harvesting, the use of the whole tree including the branches
and roots. He also discussed some inventory problems he
has run across, for example, the inadequacy of current
inventory methods and the lack of data concerning the
crowns and roots of trees.
Bob Haig talked about the possibility of using wood for
energy in the near future.
After Supper, Professor Hearnden gave a "sermon" on
Forestry in Biblical times. (What is the second oldest
profession

...?)

Then came

the drinking, socializing, drinking, dancing,

more dancing, and just a little
drinking just for the hell of it.
Many thanks to those who attended and to the speakers.

�Chez Montreal!
This year's Woodsman's team had a great time in
Montreal, as usual. From Thunder Bay to Montreal (27
hours as guests of VIA Rail); from the crazy humour
of James and company, to the annoying game of
basketball at 3:00 a.m. (eh Joan?); from Montreal back
to T. Bay - it will be remembered by those involved for
a long time.
Tom Obright took on the job of Manager (thanks
Tom) and had to look after:

Both Lakehead teams slipped in the overall standings
from the previous year, but already there have been
murmurings of "Watch out next Year!"

��Director's Message
Although the uncertain national economic scene and employment trends may not be seen to be cause for optimism
amongst forestry students, currently, a longer view suggests that there is reason to anticipate truly challenging opportunities and careers in Canadian forestry in the near future. Within the past several years, a widening public and
political recognition of the need for the implementation of the principles and practices of sustained yield forest
management has become apparent. In mid 1979, for example, a report "Forestry Imperatives for Canada", was
prepared for the Canadian Council of Resource and Environment Ministers. The following statement appears in that
report:

"Canada has allowed much of its most productive forest land to revert to a non-productive state. Firm action must
be taken to correct this in order to stop the current decline of the forestry industry in many regions of Canada. And
also to provide the opportunity for industrial expansion in the future. The opportunities of future job creation and
industrial development occur in all regions of Canada and are limited only by the degree of emphasis we place on
forest renewal and improvement today."
A recognition of the need for the kind of "firm action" referred to above, by one large, forest products company
is indicated in a recent article in the Globe and Mail. The article reports the concern of the President of the MacMillan Bloedel Company that, " ... British Columbia itself is running out of harvestable trees and even MacMillan
Bloedel with the largest timber allocation on the Coast, is "bumping against the ceiling of being able to supply our
B.C. operations". The Directors of the Company will be considering this month a "multimillion dollar increase in
spending on planting, fertilizing, thinning and improved data keeping." Similar measures are being planned or
implemented by other major forest products companies, especially in Western Canada, and there are indications that
the major companies in Eastern Canada, especially in Ontario, will be accepting increasing responsibility for the
more efficient harvesting and renewal of the forest.
Finally, we have reason to hope that, after more than a century and a half of forest exploitation and destruction,
we shall see the advancement of sustained yield forest management in Canada. Finally, we have reason to anticipate
that the principles and techniques of forestry, as taught in forestry schools across the country, will be carried into
practice.

In behalf of the faculty members and staff of the School of Forestry I extend our sincere good wishes to
students for satisfying and challenging careers in forest resources management in Canada.

Well,

it's

that time again.

Another deadline to be

met, the FINAL one. That means that
writing this message any longer.

I

looked at some old yearbooks
that covered 18 years and spanned the country from
Nova Scotia to B.C., to see what other editors have
said. Funny, but four of those books didn't have an
editor or a staff, they just sort of happened. Fortunately we didn't have that problem this year. I had
more people offering to help than I knew what to do
with. Especially in the photography department. That
was fantastic because photos are what the book is
made of. In this way we got a better cross-section of
the faculty represented in the book. To those of you
whose pictures weren't used THANK YOU for submitting them anyway. Please keep on submitting them
because without your extra help the book would lack
depth, which would be the beginning of the end of the
book.
When it came to doing the layouts there also never
was any shortages of help. Usually I had more people
offering to do work than I had the room or equipment
to keep them busy, so they took turns. Chris and Wiet
did most of the layout for the first deadline in the first
lounge of E-House while I was busy in the darkroom
trying to keep them supplied with photos. On the way
to meeting our third deadline Mark and Guy worked
on layouts in the LUFA office until almost 3 AM, on a

��EDITORIAL
What is 'forestry ? I know, it's something about "... an art and science ... using available technology ... to
produce ... benefit of man.", and I won t argue the definition, but perhaps there's more. Forestry is more
than an industry, a science, or even a profession. Forestry is a lot of things to a lot of people, and in that
train of thought may I introduce the theme this year of "Forestry is
and to usher us through the book is
our friend from the cover (or was it the Wayland) Lu Forester.
Lu Forester however, like the rest of this book, is a creation, and I would like to take a moment to
acknowledge the people who helped create "Harvest 79".
Sheri Walsh was this years ad manager, coordinating all advertising activities, writing numerous letters,
making phone calls, sending out invoices, as well as taking pictures and selling books. Helping Sheri with
advertising around town were Bev Shaw and Mark Stevens who went door to door through Thunder Bay's
business sections.

On the production end of the book, Rohn Solecki put in countless hours taking and developing pictures,
coordinating and doing lay-out, and 'kicking my ass' to get things done. Rohn knows all aspects of yearbook
production and will undoubtedly make next years book the best yet. Also helping with the production of the
book were Ed Paleczny doing a lot of photography, Randy Collier working on lay-out and again Mark
Stevens working his butt off on lay-out, ideas, and sales. I would also like to thank Ramune Beresnevicius for
"Lu Forester". There were many other people who helped on the book
and I thank them although space does not permit their mention on this page.
I would also like to thank our sponsors for their advertising, since a yearbook is too expensive to be made
solely on sales. I hope you enjoy our book.
To the people who bought 'this years model', I hope you find it satisfactory. To those who didn't buy a
yearbook, I hope you will indulge in one next year. Remember, we put the book out for you!
To this years graduates I extend the best wishes for the future from the whole yearbook staff, and to those
still working towards a degree or diploma, I offer my condolences.
Once again I would like to thank everyone involved with this book, it really looks good.

The academic year was

highlighted by our various activities beginning with a forestry dominated Shinerama,
canoe race, the corn roast (with real corn), the Softball tournament, the Weyerhaeuser
Lecture Series, the tubing party (with non-alcoholic cider), Ski Nite, Symposium (a tremendous turnout (sic) ), the
Woodsmans Competition (LU 1 calling passionate lady), the Hockey Tournament, and finally awards night.
Due to the changing nature and expectations of students, we conducted a LUFA evaluation. The result was the
initiation of a careers night and the tubing party.
The course evaluations have been completed, and are in the LUFA office for all to see.
In conclusion, I wish to thank all the people who have worked hard to make this year a success, and encourage
everyone else to come out and see what goes on. Try it, you may just like it!
I hope to see everyone next year.

the forest scene as

progressive!) in the years ahead. There is now, in Canada and beyond, a much wider public and political recognition of the need for greatly intensified efforts in the rehabilitation and planned management of our forest resources than was apparent a few years ago.
In October,
&gt;78, the 8th W orld Forestry World Congress was held in Jakarta, Indonesia. Participants from 104 countries and 14 international
organizations received and discussed papers and reports on a wide range of forestry subjects and issues, and at the conclusion of the Congress
rather unimpressive, especially from an

increased by 70 million people, annually, and recorded that:

"If present trends continue and potential demands materialize, there is a prospect of a serious gap between the worlds needs for industrial and
other wood products and the capacity of the world's forests to supply these and other essential goods and services. This gap can only be avoided if
the shrinkage of the forest areas is halted, if natural forests are properly managed, if harvesting is more complete and more efficient, if there is
subsequent full and prudent use of all products harvested, and if large areas of successful plantations are created and intensively managed.

added to this backlog annually. Moreover, the second growth stands, following logging or fire, are often poorer in quality than the

gap" was formally recognized and discussed during conferences convened by the Ontario Ministry of
1978 and again in 1979. The problem of insuring the establishment and management of high quality second forests on
cut-over and burned areas in Ontario has been a concern of the forestry profession for a number of years. That this problem has finally engaged
the attention of our provincial politicians, and that it has been accorded an improved priority rating in public spending plans are encouraging.
Within the past few months, the federal government has committed itself to the expenditure of about a half billion dollars for the modernization
of pulp and paper mills and for the rehabilitation, development, and management of public forests in a number of provinces. Ontario, Quebec,
New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia will participate, and contribute provincial funds, for the advancement of these programs. Beyond these encouraging, immediate stimuli for forestry in Canada, we can anticipate that as energy costs continue to rise there will be beneficial results for
forestry. The substitution of wood for metals in construction of all kinds, the increased use of wood itself for energy generation, and the prospects
of increased utilization of all species and of all parts of trees can be anticipated.
In sum, I believe that we shall see abundant opportunities for challenging careers in forest management in Canada within the next few years. I
believe, too, that the practice of forestry, in contrast to that of simple timber liquidation, will provide full opportunity for the effective exercise of
the knowledge and skills which our gradutates have acquired at Lakehead University.
On behalf of all members of the faculty and staff of the School of Forestry, I am pleased to have this opportunity to record here our wish and
hope, and, indeed, expectation that each graduate of the classes of 1979 will find satisfying and challenging work in forestry, and that each one will

PAUL BUNYAN
STORY

YOUTH
seems that every story has to start out with a baby
and this one is no exception. But Paul Bunyan was
no ordinary baby. He was born in the State of Maine, and
was like no other baby they had ever seen. His father, after
breaking his back trying to rock a house-sized cradle, built
a cradle in the shape of a boat, and let the sea do the rocking for him. This was a good idea until the young Paul
started having fun rocking and bouncing in his cradle. It
has been said that nearly one half the Eastern seaboard
was flooded out as a result of this playtime frolicking.
It

picture,

The photo on the left is sort of a family portrait of the
Bunyan family. On the right is Paul, and down below and
to the left is his father. Paul's youth was a happy one. His
was thankful for this, as spanking the large Paul
would have been hazardous to say the least. As soon as he
was old enough he joined his father cutting timber in the
Maine area. It was in this time that the young Paul learned
the trade of logging. He learned his trade well, cutting
most of the State of Maine during his youth.

The 1977-78 Weyerhaeuser Committee was pleased to present two knowledgeable guest speakers on November
1977 to discuss the "Sharing of Responsibility for Regeneration in Ontario." Mr. A. Herridge,
Asssitant Deputy Minister of Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources, presented his paper titled "A History of
Reforestation in Ontario" followed by a presentation by Mr. R. Loughlan, Manager of the Ontario Forest

Industries Association. Mr. Loughlan's paper dealt with the "Implications of the

The discussion which ensued afterwards was enjoyed by the large crowd on hand as both speakers fielded
questions from members of the audience. The theme of this year's Lecture Series was very appropriate at
when the provincial government is seriously considering major changes in its forestry statutes.

Taking it back to the camp, Paul nursed the ox back to health, and
decided to keep it as a pet. Like Paul in his early years, the ox grew quite

as large as Paul himself. From that moment forward, Babe the blue ox

GRADUATES

On the following pages, you will see the graduates of both BSc and Forestry Technology programs.
They have worked for four or two years respectively, completing assignments, attending lectures, and
generally putting up with all the hassles of a university education. And having succeeded in their task, they
now go on to a career in Forestry, if the jobs are available.

REVIEW

The term 1976-77 has been an interesting, eventful year for the forestry students of L.U. A great deaj. of credit is
due to the LUFA executive: Wolf Schwan, Wilma Cornelissen, Frances Bennett, Jamie Corcoran, Hak Neilson and
Brian Vermeersch. However, without the participation of large numbers of the student body, none of the successes
would have been possible.
The first LUFA event of the year was Shinerama Day, on behalf of cystic fibrosis. Under the leadership of Wilma
and Wolf, this shoe shining blitz netted a record high.
The annual corn roast was held at the LU woodlot, and was w eJ J ajyj£jy^L-EiJjji first time in five years, corn
was actually available.
trong teams in soccer, footThe faculty of forestry was unusually active in intramural sports this year, fieli
ball, broomball, all three hockey leagues, indoor soccer and basketball.
The woodsman's competition was bigger and better than ever this year, thanfcslto me organizational abilities of
Hak Neilson and Murray Peterson. The competition was won bv. Degree II team, while four tourth year teams broke
into the top ten. One week after the [.UFA competition, a men's team and a women's team represented Lakehfcad
University at the Macdonald College championship in Montreal. The men's team finished in the middle of the field,
while the women's team scored a win in the log splitting event of the tourney. The first gold medal ever received by
Lakehead University.
The Ninth Annual Symposium was concerned with the integKltion of logging and silviculture, and was ably arranged by Paul Butra and his committee. The lectures and succeeding discussion were interesting and provocative.
The Weyerhauser Lecture Series was competently orchestrated by Bob Mears and his committee, and the subject:
Wfcl
Compatability of Logging and Wildlife Management, was timely and absorbing.
The final event of the year was the Ski Night held at Mount Baldy. This affair was very well supported and enjoy&lt;

�THE FLYING CIRCUS
This year's Flying Circus proved to be a
prime example of organized chaos. Initially
planned as a precise, complete educational experience,

it

quickly decayed into a casual, hap-

much

hazzard, hit-or-miss tour,

to the benefit

and delight of the Circus members.
Fueled by massive quantities of Rubi and
ale, we not only discovered education but a little bit of entertainment on the side. The Circus
partook in tours that ranged from handbuilt
cedar strip canoes to particle board production.

Growth is what Forestry is all about and this year as always
our school has attracted more students than ever before where some
400 applied for first year alone, and where the average student

accepted in the degree program had
a

a

78 average.

To help releive

staff shortage, the school aquired two new professors, namely Mr.

C. Benson and Mr. E, David, and it is hoped that they will enrich

our program further with their expertise.

With the abun 'ance of new students in the forestry curriculum this year, it is hoped that most of them walked away with many

new found friends and good memories.

For some, these hard-won

moments were filed away along with the many others from previous
years

�CHAIRMAN'S REMARKS
In this fifth

year of publication of the "Lakehead Forestry

Harvest", we can look back upon many, significant changes in the
School of Forestry since the publication of the first yearbook in
1972.

Five years ago our staff was composed of 10 full time

faculty members and four technicians.

Enrollment in the School in

1971-72 had risen from 204 in the previous year to 234 students.
In the current year, 18 full

time faculty members and 12 technicians

are undertaking academic responsibilities for

a

student enrollment

of 459.

The near doubling of staff and students in the period has

necessitated the acquisition of additional offices, laboratories, and
other facilities.

This has not been accomplished easily, but, with

the co-operation of the University administration and faculty, we

have succeeded in developing

a

school capable of offering professional

and technicial forestry programs, the excellence of which has been

recognized across Canada.
During the year, Professors David and Benson joined our
faculty.

Professor David will enable us to expand our curricula and

research activities in the region in Timber Harvesting and Forest

Mechanization.

A background of professional and teaching experience

is enabling Professor Benson to

make

a

valuable contribution in the

teaching of courses in the degree and technology programs.
In

January, 1976, Professor Fedkenheuer left our faculty

to accept employment with the Alberta government.

We are engaged,

�-

2 -

currently, in the recruitment of a replacement for him.
Our technician complement was expanded, last year, when

Miss Debbie Wickett joined us to assume responsibilities in the

greenhouse and silviculture areas.

At the same time, Mr. Greg Cowman

replaced Mr. Trevor Woods ('74) who assumed

a

full

time position

with the Ministry of Natural Resources.
During the year, a committee of faculty members reviewed

The review was

thoroughly our degree and technology curricula.

influenced, in considerable measure, by the recommendation made last

year by our Forestry Advisory Committee.

Significant changes were

made in the forestry degree curriculum, including the addition of

electives in year

2

of the program, and a new course, "Organizational

Behaviour and Administration" in the third year.

The report of the

review committee was debated at great length by all members of the

faculty of the School before it was finally approved.

Forestry

educators everywhere are experiencing increasing difficulty in accomplishing satisfactorily the effective training and education of

practitioners of modern forestry within the constraints of tolerable
student course loads, an expanding number of core courses, and

a

limitation imposed by the actual time available for instruction which,
in a four year program, totals only 24 months.

The offering of a graduate program at the masters level
has been an objective of our School for some time.

University Senate gave provisional approval to

a

Last year, the

proposed masters

program in forestry, and, in December, we were visited by two appraisers,

Professor Armson, of the University of Toronto, and Dr. Lafond, of the

�-

3 -

University of Laval, who were appointed by the Ontario Committee on
Graduate Studies to determine our ability to provide

a

program.

At date of writing, it is probable that we will receive

favourable reports from the appraisers, but approval of the program
will depend upon the recruitment of additional faculty members and

the authorization of funding by the provincial government.

Viewed from

broad perspective, the forest scene in Ontario

a

cannot be regarded as particularly inspiring.
A prolonged strike by mill workers in the pulp and paper

industry extending over

a

period of many months necessitated the

termination of woodlands operations.

This factor, coupled with the

unfavourable economic conditions which have prevailed in the country,
appears to be excercising

a

negative influence on the potential for

both summer and permanent employment inforestry in the forest industry.

Although the Ministry of Natural Resources has not yet
achieved

a

satisfactory level of performance in the growing of the

second forest in Ontario, it appears improbable that the recently

imposed posterity measures in public measures in public spending will

enable any significant advancement in the silviculture program.

The

reduction in the number of persons employed in the civil service, will,
undoubtedly, adversely affect the recruitment of permanent staff by the

Ministry of Natural Resources.

During the next few weeks, the provincial

government will be considering the budget proposals of the various
ministries.

It will

be interesting to learn to what extent our gov-

ernment is committed to forest management in Ontario when the estimates
of the Ministry of Natural Resources are debated.

�-

4 -

Although the forest scene, currently, is rather depressing,
especially for students and graduates seeking challenging employment,
there is no doubt that more challenging and stimulating opportunities

The demand for all of the goods and services which

lie not far ahead.

can be provided from Canada's forests will continue to rise to

progressively higher levels, and, within the next decade or two, we
shall, at last, begin to feel the pinch of timber shortages in some

parts of Canada.

Clearly, major demands will be made upon the knowledge,

experience, and ability of all who are engaged in forestry practices.
It is the wish and hope of the staff of the School

of Forestry,

that each graduate in the classes of 1976 will find satisfying and

challenging work in forestry, and that each one will contribute,

directly or indirectly, to the progressive advancement of forestry
practice in Canada.

�WEYERHAEUSER LECTURE SERIES

This year's lecture series, on Swedish sil vicultural tech-

niques, came off very well, thanks to the efforts of the committee,
the speakers and great audience.

The lectures started on

a

Thursday with Mr. N.A, Wiksten

giving an overall view of the Swedish sisvicultural program and
some of the philosophy behind it.
On the Friday, Kr. J. Hermilin of the forest Extension Service,
in

New Brunswick, explained how Sweden follows

a

more active silvi-

cultural program than we do in Canada and pave some of the reasons
as to why they follow this course and some of the eouipment and

materials they use in their programs.
Mr, J. Ellingsen, of the Nova Scotia Forest Industries, which
is a

subsidiary of

a

Swedish Company, showed how

a

Canadial Company

has adopted some of the Swedish Practices and adapted them to Canadian

climate and topography.
In the past, attendance of the Weyerhaeuser Series has been

dismal

hut this year the turn out was excellent.

We hope the improved

participation op the part of the student body is an indication of
things to come in the following years,

�CHAIRMAN'S REMARKS

Once again, I am pleased to avail myself of this opportunity to
address a few remarks to the readers of the "Lakehead Forestry Harvest."
The publication of the first LUFA yearbook, in 1972, marked the first
step taken by the students in the School of Forestry in the development
of a yearbook marked by progressive annual improvements in content and
format.
This trend parallels the growing awareness of the importance
of forestry both in Lakehead University, and in the region.
In the 1974-75 academic year, more than 430 students were enrolled
in the forestry programs.
Although this was the largest enrollment
experienced to date, current projections indicate that an even larger
number will be seeking forestry education at Lakehead University in 1975Although the rising interest by increasing numbers of young people
76.
in careers in forest resources management is gratifying to a profession
which regarded itself as essentially invisible and unknown, until recent
years, severe strains are being imposed upon our staff and facilities.
Forestry education came of age in Lakehead University at a time when our
provincial government adopted a policy of freezing further construction
of university buildings and facilities, and when enrollments in other
faculties and departments were beginning to decline.
In consequence,
during the past several years, both funds and suitable space have not been
readily provided,' with the result that the expansion of the School,
commensurate with rising enrollments and curriculum improvements, has been
seriously impeded. Our difficulties have been further increased by
problems in the recruitment of new full-time faculty members. Thus, our
ability to offer courses in some subject areas of current interest to many
students, such as land classification, land-use-planning, and forest
recreation has been severely restricted.

We were pleased to welcome three new full-time faculty members to
our School in 1974, in the persons of Messrs. A. Fedkenheuer, T.G. Liber
and D.A. Mead. They have assumed academic and administrative responsibilities,
and will bring new strength to our School in a number of subject areas.

We were greatly saddened during the year by the loss of two veteran
foresters of wide knowledge and experience who had joined our staff on
retiring from their previous full-time positions. Our special lecturer,
Mr. S.T.B. Losee, had assumed responsibilities for the teaching of Descriptive
Dendrology in the degree program. He died suddenly while conducting a student
excursion on the first day of field school. This serious loss for our School
was compounded in the first week of the second term by the sudden death of
Mr. J.K. McEwen.
With the assistance of our faculty members and the cooperation of the Faculty of Forestry at the University of Toronto, we were
able to effect some major changes in course responsibilities, and to continue
to function in spite of the loss of these two highly esteemed foresters.

During the past year, we have been engaged in the preparatory phases
of a Master's program in forestry.
It appears probable that we shall be
authorized to offer this program, for the first time, commencing in 1976.
A high level of interest has been shown in such a program, both by our own
graduates, and by others, and there is no doubt that adequate numbers of
students will be attracted to it.
.

�-2-

In the months ahead, we shall be endeavoring to continue our program
of recruitment of new full-time faculty members.
We do not expect tiiis to
be an easy task because of a number of problems, including non-competitive
salary levels, a national shortage of potential instructors having an adequate
background of education and experience, and the generally unfavourable conditions under which universities are now obliged to function.

Looking at the national and provincial forestry scenes, one is aware
that the winds of change are blowing briskly.
At the federal level, it
appears that, although the Canadian Forestry Service, as such, has virtually
disappeared into the Ministry of the Environment, a national forestry advisory
committee is beginning to give serious attention to the need for the definition
of a national policy on forestry. The British North America Act, of course,
conferred ownership of forest lands and resources upon the provinces. Through
corporation and personal taxes, however, the federal government is a principle
beneficiary of the exploitation of forest resources in the provinces. One
could argue, then, that it has a major responsibility for insuring the maintenance of the productivity of the forests by financial measures and cooperation
with the provinces.

During the past several years it has become apparent that traditional
timber licensing systems, little changed from those first developed in the
middle of the last centry, will undergo significant change. The abolition
of such licenses in the province of Quebec, the establisliment of a forest
authority in New Brunswick, and more recently, in Ontario of the Algonquin
Forestry Authority presaged the assumption of governments of increasing control
and responsibility for forest resources exploitation activities.
One can but
hope that we are not witnessing the initial development of burgeoning governmental bureaucracies which will have the effect of increasing the cost of
timber harvesting without significant improvements in the value of the wood
produced or in the environmental consequences.
For better or for worse, it
appears that forest management, and most of the activities which fall under the
umbrella of management will become a crown monopoly in most if not all provinces.
It is regretable, indeed, that the forest industries, long ago, did not choose
to exercise better stewardship of the large areas of public forest land entrusted to them under long-term licenses.
In the north western region of Ontario there is a growing belief that
current and projected levels of timber harvesting will soon approximate the
calculated allowable annual cut for the region.
Predictions of potential
timber shortages for some wood-using industries are heard. This possibility,
when considered together with proposals by vociferous "environmental" groups
for the setting aside of decidedly large, single purpose, wilderness areas,
indicate a need for a much intensified application of forestry techniques,
practices and principles, without delay.

There is no doubt, in my mind, that we are entering a most challenging
and stimulating period for forestry in Ontario.
The opportunities for
graduates to carry into practice the theories and techniques acquired in the
lecture room, laboratory, and in the field, are now better than at any time
heretofore in the history of forestry in Ontario. Until recent years, the
apparent limitlessness of the forest resource in the Boreal region constituted,

�-3-

in itself, a major psychological deterrent to the commitment of significant
efforts to forest management. The attitude towards our forests was expressed
in 1965 by a Canadian writer, Edward McCourt, who said:

"The Canadian shield is fascinating country of
enormous wealth, but there is too much of it.
Too much rock, too much prairie, too much tundra,
too mucli mountain, too much forest.
Above all,
too much forest.
Even the man who passionately
believes that he shall never see a poem lovely
as a tree, will be disposed to give poetry another
try after he has driven the Trans-Canada highway."

Although this notion lingers on in the minds of some people, there are
now few foresters who are prepared to argue that adequate forests for the
future can be ensured by the simple, traditional process of liquidating the
remaining wild forests and entrusting their renewal to unassisted natural
processes. Twenty years ago such an attitude was commonly held amongst
members of the profession. We have advanced, at least, beyond that stage!
In Ontario increasing responsibilities for forest management have been
assumed by a large bureaucracy, the Ministry of Natural Resources. Within
the multitudinous layers of responsibility in this organization, the new,
enthusiastic graduate will encounter, at an early stage in his career, the
dead weight and frustration of organizational procedures, red tape, and
inertia.
For one who becomes frustrated under these conditions, the temptation
is strong to resign and go elsewhere.
Such action may or may not prove
beneficial for the individual, but it does nothing to assist the organization
in the improvement of performance.
In the challenging period in which we
now find ourselves, high levels of professional competence, dedication, idealism,
courage, and persistence remain the prime requisites of all those who go forth
from Lakehead University to improve forestry practice in Ontario, or elsewhere.

��A MESSAGE FROM THE HON. LEO BERNIER,
MINISTER OF NATURAL RESOURCES.
Yes, we have a new name.

But it's more than two years old

now and many people are still confused about our transition
from Lands and Forests to our present title
of Natural Resources.

Perhaps

I

-

Ontario Ministry

might explain.

The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources came into being

April 1, 197 2 following a major restructuring of government.
Our composition includes the former Department of Lands and
Forests, the Department of Mines and Northern Affairs, Conser-

vation Authorities Branch from the former Department of Energy
and Resources, Historical Sites Branch from the old Department

of Tourism, various parks commissions and other agencies.

A major function of the former Lands and Forests operation and
one which the new ministry has assumed is that of forest protection.

Last year marked the Golden Anniversary of our provincial air service which has played a vital role in forest fire surveillance and

suppression throughout the province.

The air service

-

one of the

finest in the world - comprises a fleet of 43 aircraft including
the recently acquired Grumman Trackers which are being converted
into water bombers.

To mark this 50th anniversary, Bruce West,

a well known author and columnist with the Globe

&amp;

Mail, has written

an exciting account of the early days of bush flying in Ontario

called, appropriately, "The Firebirds".

It is available through

my ministry and at our district offices throughout the province as
well as the Government Book Store, Bay and Grosvenor Streets,
Toronto.

I

in Ontario.

recommend it as an interesting history of bush flying

�The goal of the new ministry is to provide opportunities for

outdoor recreation and resource development for the continuous
social and economic benefit of the people of Ontario and to

administer, protect and conserve public lands and waters.

Partial achievement of this objective is met by our Division of
Parks which administers 119 provincial parks having a total of

more than 10.4 million acres.

Each park is different.

offer excellent campsites, swimming and boating.

Some

Others retain

historical features along with other facilities and interpretive
programs.

Many remain open during the winter for camping, snow-

mobiling and hiking.

Recently, we introduced a snowmobile trails

maintenance program to permit private clubs to improve their special
areas and trails, all funded by the provincial government under

supervision of Natural Resources.
Most Ontario sportsmen have heard about our Division of Fish and

Wildlife which administers hunting and fishing regulations as well
as offering sound advice on likely hunting areas.

Those of you who are interested in cottage properties will be
familiar with our Division of Lands which provides the mechanism
for the leasing of Crown Land for cottage sites.

Of particular interest to you is our forest management programs.

During the fiscal year 1973/74, approximately 787,000,000 viable
tree seeds were utilized in the Provincial Forest Regeneration
program.

A total of 65,362,395 in nursery stock plus five million

tubed seedlings was produced in ministry nurseries for use in planting on Crown and private lands.

�A total of 318,158 acres of Crown and private land received
regeneration or tending treatment.

This included planting

or seeding of 150,225 acres; 131,618 acres being on Crown
land.

Stand improvement and tending was carried out on

167,9 03 acres of Crown and Private land.

A total of 3,249 agreements was made under The Woodlands
Improvement Act covering an area of 161,306 acres of private
lands.

Sixty agreement forests are under management covering

an area of 254,652 acres, and 28 Regeneration Agreements are

currently in effect with Timber Licensees, mainly in Northern
Ontario
In 1973, aerial spraying operations, to control the spruce bud-

worm, were carried out on an area of 88,300 acres of Crown land
in Northern Ontario.

An additional 12,000 acres were treated to

control other insects and diseases in the southern part of the
Province.

During the past decade the volume of Crown wood cut increased by
35 per cent from 376 million cubic feet to 506 million cubic feet

annually.

Ontario was the first province in Canada to complete an inventory
(in 1959)

of its forest resources.

inventory has been instituted.

Since 1960 a program of re-

It is designed to maintain an

up-to-date record of our forest resources.

Ontario's forest economy

has now reached a level of maturity which exceeds that in other

provinces by a wide margin.

Level of manufacturing creates more

jobs per cunit (100 cubic feet) of wood utilized.

Ontario's forest

industry employs almost as many workers as British Columbia but

harvests less than 35 per cent as much wood.

For each cunit of wood

produced there is a value added by manufacturing of $139 for Ontario

�compared to only $83 in Quebec and $44 in British Columbia.
Ontario's forest industry provides 72,000 direct jobs for the

province's labour force.

These jobs generated 125,000 indirect

positions in the supply and service sectors.

The shipping value

of all forest industry products increased to $1.9 billion in 1971.

The value added by manufacturing in 1971 represented $883 million
and places Ontario as the leader in adding value to each unit of

roundwood harvested in the province.

An important phase in forest site research was finalized with the
publication of a unique set of 11 maps of land-type patterns at a
scale of 1:125,000 for Southern Ontario, which can serve as a model
for further mapping programs in the province.

Tree breeding research has provided a firm basis to launch pilot

projects in which hybrid poplars are grown during short rotations
of 5-12 years, aimed at satisfying wood requirements of pulp mills
in eastern Ontario and providing local farmers with a new source

of income.

Aspen was formerly regarded as a weed species in northern Ontario,
but is now increasing in importance.

It has become the subject of

intensified silvicultural studies to improve the quality of the
trees and their rate of growth.
The Algonquin Forestry Act (Bill 155) was passed in December, 1974,
and was proclaimed on January 1, 1975.

This established the Algonquin Forestry Authority, which will be

responsible for harvesting Crown timber in Algonquin Park, producing logs and providing these to established industry.

�It may be required to carry out such forestry,

land management,

and other programs and projects as may be authorized by myself
as Minister.

On May 1, 1974, changes were made in regulations under The Crown

Timber Act relating to Crown dues and wood measurement.

The

purpose of these changes was to increase revenue from the sale
of timber and simplify wood measurement procedures.

Currently, a government task force is reviewing the entire

revenue field.
The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources is one of the largest

ministries in government.

As custodian of nearly 90 per cent of

Ontario's land and water, our major programs represent a whole
"bag of services" designed to provide both residents and visitors

with exceptional outdoor recreational opportunities.
One final word.

When you're using our wealth of natural resources,

please leave only your footsteps behind you.

�ON FOREST ECONOMICS IN CANADA

As foresters, we are closely identified, for better or worse, with the
forest industries, although we should never let ourselves be equated as an
extension of it. The importance of these industries to the rest of the country
cannot be overlooked. Together they add about five per cent to our gross
national product. Their gross value of production is expected to be about
$ 7 billion this year.

But we cannot view one industry or sector of the economy in isolation.
Whatever happens in one part of the economy has usually repercussions elsewhere,
although the time lag may be considerable at times.
Even isolation from the
international scene is hardly more feasible. The war in Vietnam is largely
blamed for the inflation plaguing the industrialised countries. And even if
we are self sufficient in crude oil, the increase in international oil prices
will affect us too before very long.
From a global perspective, the year
1974 is preferably forgotten.
Besides inflation and oil prices, many other
unpleasant conditions prevailed, inter alia, the growing awareness of limits
to natural resources.
As foresters, we have lived with the threat of a timber
famine for some time already, only to find our suspicions apparently misplaced
time and again.
The country has become immune to the problem. Even the pending
crude oil shortage has been initially discounted as a scare tactic or a clever
ruse on the part of the oil companies to raise prices.
But now that it gradually
dawns on us that the threat may be real for the immediate and short term future,
all kinds of problems appear to be even worse than in 1974; the possibility of
another war in the middle east, another oil embargo for some of our trading
partners, larger production cut backs, more unemployment, worse balance of
payments problems and protectionism. All these factors will dampen an already
decreased volume of international trade. A number of industries are cutting

the accepted definition of a recession, two consecutive quarters with a negative
rate of growth in real output, Canada is in a recession.
But decisions made in Ottawa also come to interfere more and more in
corporate affairs as well as in our private lives. Even other jurisdictions
feel its heavy hand.
While there is no question but that Ottawa has the
constitutional right to interfere in the exploitation of natural resources
under provincial jurisdiction, under the motto that the national interest is
at stake, the manner in which it is accomplished leaves some far from reassured

payments by British Columbia forest industries to the provincial government
may be treated in the same way as oil royalties, i.e., they are no longer
deductible from income before taxes, although the matter has recently been
clarified to restrict it for the moment to mineral royalties. But decisions
made in 1974, other than taxation of royalties, will also affect some parts of
the forest industry.
The decision to allow a 25 per cent increase in existing

from British Columbia to Halifax by railroad. To ship the same amount of lumber
within the Maritimes over a 100 mile distance costs about $25.

�-2-

But how has the forest industry fared in this milieu? As a student,
the importance of the forest industry for the wealth of the country was
impressed upon me by the statement that forest products account for over 30
per cent of the value of our exports.
Since then, this relative position
has been lost, because two other industry sectors expanded their exports to
the USA considerably.
The auto pact with the USA did much to boost the export
value of manufactured goods. The exploitation and export of crude oil and
natural gas also expanded greatly since then.
Largely owing to these industries,
the forest industry appeared to be headed the same way as railroads, coalmines
and horse teams.
In 1973, the value of exports of forest products was
But relatively, the
$4 billion, 16 per cent of the value of our exports.
position of the export value of forest products for 1975 should be much
improved.

The fortunes of the forest industries are cyclical. The lumber industry
depends for a large part on the construction industry, a sector of the economy
itself highly cyclical, both at home and abroad.
Inflation is responsible
for the high interest rates in the money markets.
This discourages the
acceptance of the even higher mortgage rates, despite the fact that interest
payments are deductible from income before taxes in the USA, our principal
lumber market.
The pulp and paper industry generates its own cyclical
movements in profit positions, owing to the discrete nature of any increase
in capacity.
Often it seems, a new machine or mill comes into production
right at the point where the consumption cycle is on the down turn.
Planned
increases in capacity are about two per cent in both the newsprint and pulp
industries for the next year. Despite these modest increases, the importance
of the forest industries has remained, in many respects, very high.
They
belong to the ten leading manufacturing industries in terms of value added
by manufacturing and gross value of production.
Our pulp and paper industry
and the lumber industry ranked in 1971 first and second respectively in terms
of employment.
As graduating foresters, you join therefore a healthy and strong
industry.
Per force, they have considerable influence, politically as well as
economically.
The type of decisions the industry faces now and with which you will have
to become increasingly involved are those connected with the forest; specifically,
the problems for which solutions have to be found in the near future concern

the availability of forest labour and the cost of timber.
The technical aspects
of substitution of capital for labour may become one aspect of your job.
It
can equally well become for you an economic problem.

The other problem which is looming ever larger and about which decisions
must be made shortly concerns the relative merits of growing more expensive,
but better educated trees near the consuming industries or the reliance of cheap
wood delivered over long distances. That frontier is pushed ever farther away
and that wood becomes more expensive, both absolutely as well as in relative
terms.
Consider the cost of growing timber and start from the premise that in
the long run, the price of stumpage must be equal to the marginal cost of
growing trees. Only then, when on the margin the value of all marginal products
are equal will we have the condition that both you and the industry are making
the correct and an optimum contribution to society, regardless of whether the
tree is to be used for newsprint or recreational purposes.
It is still a long
way off, but the hope for a healthy attitude and an efficient profession rests
increasingly with you.

which will better utilize the entire tree there by increasing the yield
per acre and eliminate wastes which often attract the attention of today's

ecologically oriented public.

Such systems, from full tree clipping through

to the use of lignum residues as adhesives, all

have a commom goal, the

maximum utilization of Canada's most valuable renewable resource.
Similar concepts are no longer just dreams or drawing board plans
in

the profession today; but are slowly becoming fact, hence the choice

of the theme for the seventh annual Symposium, "Approaching the

Three areas of interest were covered by the three speakers; two

This year with the el imi nation of tackle football the foresters were
able to place three teams in competition.

Even though the event run by the Jocks was poorly advertised

No weight classes were won, but again thanks is extended to the
coach, Don Roy.
