D. Booth �M. W. Bartley &Associates limited - Geologists - 202 TORONTO- DOMINION BANK BLDG. THUNDER BAY, ONTARIO �1: with compliments from the faculty of • sc1ence lakehead university Dean R. A. Ross �Some readers of this Yearbook may know that Lakehead University has recently been developing an Academic Plan. The first draft of this, usually called "The Skeleton" because of its front cover adornment, sets out certain principles which I believe to be appropriate in the development of this institution as a regional university. Looking at Northwestern Ontario, a number of points become obvious: first, the possession of large tracts of forest; second, the Canadian Shield and its relatively unexplored geological wealth; third, the lake; and fourth, but by no means the least important, the people of the region. Lakehead already has a Forestry School of some distinction and one which, we believe, in due course, should be the best in Canada. The Second of my primary areas of development is Geology, and I can see that this is likely to expand in two distinct phases. In the first of these, the Exploration Geology of Northwestern Ontario should be the object of the main thrust. Certainly there is need for the discovery of new ore bodies. Places such as Atikokan are dependent on existing resources, the end of which is already in sight. If new and important resources can be found, particularly in that area, a pleasant town may be saved from going the way of similar places in Alberta and British Columbia which have become ghost towns. This exploration phase, which is important, both to regional economy and to pure geology since it contributes, of course, to the theories of crustal structure, will be followed and probably parallelled at some point by what I can describe as Exploitation Geology which leads indirectly to Mining Engineering. The importance of the two phases of the plan lies in the fact that industrial and commercial backing for the university's activities should be forthcoming and that the government will be ensured of the regional devotion of our institution. Another advantage of the plan, which involves the participation of industry, lies in the employment possibilities for students during vacations - something which is at the root of instruction in all professional subjects. I hope that these remarks may do something to inspire the students in the Department of Geology with the importance of their subject, their mission and their departments in the present and future of this University. ANDREW D. BOOTH �MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN OF SCIENCE The principal problem facing Lakehead University this year has been the decrease in student numbers . This phenomenon has occurred in practically all universities in North America and Western Europe . Lakehead has not endured a unique experience. Perhaps a.n enrollment decrease would be regarded as a positive factor if it could be interpreted as showing a trend towards a higher quality and more dedicated studentry. However, our fin - ancial returns from the Provincial government are directly related to student numbers and when these decline significantly, the institution trembles , becomes hypertensive and narrowly misses the trauma of a corporate nervous collapse . Such experiences occur regularly in industry and commerce. If a commodity has lost favour in the market , then its producers must revamp or replace it . Failure to react success- fully to this challenge generally results in personnel cutbacks and plant closures . Whereas the industrial environment is pre- pared for such eventualities , the university one is not. By their very nature the universities attract staff of a highly intellectual and sensitive type . They are not well paid by industrial standards , but forego pecuniary ambitions in favou r �of a modest living which allows them the privilege of imparting knowledge to their students and pursuing their own individual research and scholarly work. It is no criticism to state that university professors and lecturers are less able to cope with the rough, tumble and consequences of shifts in market-demand than are their industrial counterparts. The fact is, however, that they are becoming increasingly compelled to react to these shifts. Since the middle ages, all of the major institutions of state and church in Western civilization have had to undergo radical changes. withered. Some have survived the experience while others The universities have endured minor perturbations over these centuries, but have probably never been subjected to the same external scrutiny as they are at present. We all have a responsibility to assuage and convince our critics through our performances and actions of the tremendous and benevolent effect that the university can and does have on our society. We need to have effective ambassadors, and, in the Faculty of Science at Lakehead University, the Geology students are among the best that we have. It is pleasure to be associated with them. Once again, I am delighted to commend the enterprising and good-humoured students in the Department of Geology for the format and the high standard of the articles chosen for the Geology Year Book. Warmest congratulations and best wishes to all, R. A.

In keeping with the reputation we built for ourselves last year, the Club took on the major role of the University's Winter Carnival. This was done by sponsoring the Queen and King contest. Our two entries, Sharon Tihor and Doug Lehto faired very well. Doug went on to be crowned Carnival King and will unfortunately have to relinquish his throne next year, hopefully to another Geology student. Apart from Winter Carnival the Club put on two exceptionally successful beer bashes. As the academic year drew to a close the Geology Club Social held in the Prosvita Hall marked the end of the social calendar. I would like to at this time to introduce the Executive of the Geology Club for the past year, and to thank them for their participation and dedication. Vice-President: Bob Scott Secretary/Treasurer Eric Brown Social Directors: Ralph Bullough & Peter Friske Year Book Editor: Barry Pinn Special mention goes to Barry Pinn, Editor of the Geology Year Book , and his staff for the laborious hours which they have spent in the publication of an outstanding Year Book . David Powers, PRESIDENT, GEOLOGY CLUB. �ON THE GENESIS OF GRANITE by M. YUMA In the beginning God created the Heaven .•..•••.••.... and the Earth . And the earth was without form , and void ; so begins a well known story expounding a certain belief on the origin of the earth and granite since granite is a rock occurring near and on the surface of the earth . To a person supporting the democratic principle, that the majority opinion is correct , this would explain the origin of granite satisfactorily . However, we, being individualistic and schooled in geology like to think that this creation is not quite finished yet. It must be admitted though that the origin of the positive and negative changes that combine to form matter is unknown . We, geologists, come into this when the earth was without form , a swirling mass of dust and gasses, and imagine that the ''force" of gravity was present which formed this "ready created" dust into our earth . It is assumed that the reader agrees that the earth is a better sphere than the best basketball made by man; and also that energetic (heated) matter tends to rise to the "surface", i.e. heat energy flows from a hotter to a conler object . As a direct result of this remarkable observation , it can be stated that the concentratio n of radioactive isotopes is greatest in the rocks of the crust . Recall geothermal gradient . Also it is known that the radiogenic heat output was greater yesterday than today. Recall exponential decay function of all radioactive elements. This would also imply that the surface temperature of the earth, especially of granitic areas , was higher in the distant past . This is shown by the gaseous envelope around it (all expelled from the earth) . Also water molecules cover 75 % of the surface . Our "granite" stands out from the water , as the continental "floats". Recall isostasy . These continental " floats" are essentially granites and their derivatives. They were and are formed by contamination of the insoluble residue (silicon dioxide and aluminum silicates) by the liquid remaining from fractional crystallization of the basaltic magmas . This silica enrichment must precede granite formation . This enrichment occurs on the surface essentially . The contamination takes place near the surface under cover of the very "wet'' sediments . Bec~use of the lower density inherent in these "granitoid" rocks and because of the badly fractured platy nature of the earth ' s crust, these granitoid rocks tend to drift to the points of highest gravitional field strength, which are presently in the -- -- �vicinity of the poles. Guess where we find most of the earth's granites? That's right , near the poles ! This is normal and expected since the earth is not a perfect sphere . The granites make up only about 1/ 10 of one percent of the atoms in the earth but these are mighty important atoms for us air breathing creatures .

CAMPLING Some Mineralogical, Textural and Environmental Aspects of the Pre-Gunflint & Pre-Sibley Weathered Profiles In the Thunder Bay region, ancient weathered profiles occur in the stratigraphic column below the initial sediments of the Gunflint and Sibley Formations. Both profiles consists of weathered granitic rock and a lithified, granitic derivative. The Pre-Gunflint profile is characterized by a remarkable increase in chlorite mineralization, and a very poorlydeveloped residual soil texture. These and other mineral ogical features tentatively indicate the Pre-Gunflint weathering occurred sub-aqueously in a temperature, estuarine or tidal-flat environment. The Pre-Sibley profile is characterised by an increase in hematite mineralisation, and a well-developed residual soil texture. These and other mineralogical features tentatively indicate that Pre-Sibley weathering occurred sub aerially in a humid, temperate climate. Only the Pre-Sibley weathered profile can be termed a paleosol . �Pillow lavas from Archean volcanic-rich supracrustal units the Superior Province of Northwestern Ontario were studied on a regional scale to identify possible variations in the style of metamorphism. Chemical analyses indicate that metamorphism has not affected the basic chemistry of the pillow lavas in most cases. Volatile contents vary in the lower grade of metamorphism, however, significant metasomatism has occurred in only a few localities. Both tholeiitic and calc-alkaline chemical affinities were noted in pillows from various areas. Chemical variations within individual pillows which have undergone relatively little alteration suggest differentiation processes may have occurred during the crystallization of the pillows. The pillow lavas of the Lake Nipigon-Geraldton-Jackfish area are of a low metamorphic grade with mineral assemblages corresponding to the greenschist facies. Variations in the scale of mineralogical homogeneity and the degre8 of recrystallization indicate that moderate pressure conditions prevailed in the Highway 11 area between Beardmore and Longlac while the Highway 17 area along the north shore of Lake Superior was characterized by very low stress conditions. This indicates a variation in the regional metamorphic pattern with greater depths of burial occurring in the northern volcanic-rich unit. The regional metamorphic pattern in the southern volcanic-rich unit may have been overprinted by thermal contact aureoles related to intrusive plutons. The suite of pill lavas from between the Highway 599 area represents central amphibolite zones bounded to the north at Central Patricia and to the south of Sturgeon Lake by low grade greenschist zones. Mineralogical and textural evidence suggests progressive regional metamorphism. �THE GEOLOGY AND GEOCHEMISTRY OF THE ONAMAN LAKE PROPERTY, NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO In the thesis a detailed study was made of a small mineral prospect. The Onaman Lake property is located approximately 3 miles west of Onaman Lake in the Thunder Bay Mining.Division. The property is underlain by five rock types of Precambrian age: Keewatin acidic and mafic volcanics, Temiskaming conglomerate. Algoman granite and Keweenawan diabase dikes which cut all other rock types. The intrusion of the Algoman granite has had a contact metamorphic effect on the Keewatin mafic volcanics which is characterized by the progressive development of actinolite-tremolite and epidote group minerals in an originally chlorite rich rock. Cu, Zn and Pb are present on the property disseminated in quartz veins. In order to study the possibility of discovering other occurrences of Cu and Zn, the results of a soil sampling survey were evaluated statistically after separating the sample results into four groups: organic Cu and Zn values and inorganic Cu and Zn values. This study indicates a correlation between geochemical results and observed mineralization but indicates very few other anomalous conditions on the property. �STRUCTURES IN MIGMATIC ROCKS For this study an area along the Spruce River Road was chosen. Numerous outcrops in a 6 mile section were examined, which a variety of structures occur. Based on data, a three-fold division in the migmatite complex has been made. Well foliated biotite-plagioclase gneisses interlayered with quartzo-feldspathic gneisses. Lit-par-lit gneisses, composed of foliated gneisses interlayered with a potassium feldspar-rich mobilizate. Massive gneisses composed of poorly foliated rocks with vague structures. No sharp boundaries appear between these three types. A some-what transitional relationship between structures and mineralogy suggest stages in the degree of mobilization. A complex tectonic history is demonstrated by the structures in the migmatite. These migmatitic rocks comprise a basement complex overlain by less deformed and less metamorphosed metasedimentary and metavolcanic sequences. In the migmatite complex a fluctuating temperature produced great variations in the amount of melt at any time and thereby affected the complexities observed in the structures. �Archean Evolution of Western Dorion Twp. Ont. The western part of Dorion Twp. shows evidence of Archean ocks dating from very ancient 'primitive' basaltic crust to late kinematic, quartz monzonites. The oldest rocks underlie the northern part of the map area consists of metamorphic rocks of predominan~ly sedimentary nd, to a very minor extent, igneous origin. These metasedients are represented by roof pendants and xenoliths of fine medium grained, more or less plastically deformed, quartzoelspathic gneisses. The metamorphosed igneous rocks exist as ngular blocks of mafic to ultramafic hornblende gneiss. The atter may represent remnants of very early dykes, 'primitive' saltic crust or possibly 'horses' of mantle material. These oof pendants and xenoliths float in a 'sea' of pegmatitic o micropegmatitic, intensely flow-folded and very leucocratic obilizate. At the onset of the Kenoran 'orogeny' this basement assemb age began buckling in low amplitude east-west trending folds. s these folds developed, the synformal portion, now represnted in the southern part of the map area by the greenstone elt began filling with basement-derived pelitic· sediments, ntercalated in later stages with minor amounts of basaltic sh . With time the rate of deformation accelerated and the ressures and temperature became sufficiently high to remoblize the more volatile components of the basement at relatvely shallow depth . This caused intrusion of small eastest elongate quartz monzonitic bodies along zones of structral weakness at the edge of the greenstone belt and within he basement complex. These same pressure-temperature onditions caused progressive metamorphism of the pelitic ediments and retrogressive metamorphism of the basement omplex to a common middle-amphibolite facies grade. �ALLAN SPEED The Investigation into the use of Gamm-Ray Spectrometry as a possible geologic mapping tool The uses of the~mma-ray spectrometry as a geophysical tool in mineral exploration are well documented (Mero, 1960). However, few investigations into the feasibility of using this remote sensing technique as a geologic mapping tool are known. Thus, the purpose of this study was: 1) to investigate local scale variations in radioelement levels between different lithologic units. 2) to investigate the mineralogical composition of the various lithologic units causing the different radioelement levels. 3) to investigate the statistical problems involved in collecting and presenting data of this type, and 4) to investigate the possibility of using gamma-ray spectroscopy as a physical method which provides information from which geological conclusions can be drawn. Of the many radioactive isotopes that occur in rocks, only radio-potassium and members of the uranium and thorium series are important geologic sources of gamma-radiation . Two major,N-S traverses through the Gorham Township area crossed granitic batholithic intrusives, two types of sed~mentary rocks , volcanic rocks, diabase and gabbro. A portable gamma-ray scintillometer was used to measure the relative radiation effects of the various rock types. The initial count data was converted into more meaningful results using statistical methods , computer techniques, and geochemical analyses. These showed a definite difference in radioelement content of the various rock types measured. �JOE KASARDA The Alteration and Trace Element Content of the Mattabi Footwall Zone The Mattabi orebody is situated in the Sturgeon Lake area of North western Ontario. It exhibits many of the features common to Cu - Zn massive sulphide deposits found throughout the Canadian Shield . Alteration characteristics of the footwall rocks were studied by means of thin sections made from approximately 45 collected hand specimens. The main alteration products observed were sericite and carbonate . Abundant chloritoid and a relatively low chlorite content suggest that magnesium metasomatism was not prevalent during ore formation . No simple zonal arrangement of the lateration minerals is apparent. A total of 89 samples from 8 drill cores obtained from the footwall rocks were analyzed for Cu , Zn, Ni, Ag , Fe , Mn and Co2 by atomic absorption techniques. The frequency distributions of the elements were studied in the form of cumulative frequency curves. All the elemen~appear to be approximately lognormally distributed. Background and threshold levels were graphically estimated. �' A BIOGEOCHEMISTRY STUDY OF POPULUS TREMULOIDES APPROACHING A LEAD-ZINC-BARITE DEPOSIT The purpose of this study is to compare the variation of concentration of the trace elements lead, zinc, copper, and manganese in the various portions of Populus tremuloides with specific physical variables of the plant, such as height, age, and diameter, as well as with soil chemistry. The elemental levels of zinc, lead, copper, and manganese were measured in samples of soil, bark, old growth, new growth and buds of Populus tremuloides, and bark, old growth, new growth plus buds and needles for Pinus banksiana. Solutions of these samples were analyzed by atomic absorption methods. Lead is the only element which shows an anomalous concentration in the bark, new growth, old growth and buds of poplar. Old growth and new growth of poplar are the best portions of the tree to sample in order to detect the presence of a lead anomoly. The elemental concentration of lead, zinc, manganese, and copper in the plant organs sampled is affected by the absolute age of the species. The concentration of these elements does not accumulate with age. With the shallow soil profile, as occurs over the Sibley Group, geochemical soil sampling is a better exploration method for locating lead-zinc-barite deposits than a biogeochemical survey using Populus tremuloides as a sampling species �THE GEOCHEMISTRY OF THE LYON LAKE-CLAW LAKE SULPHIDE BEARING GRAPHITIC SHALE, STURGEON LAKE, ONTARIO The Lyon Lake-Claw Lake sulphide bearing graphitic shale is contained within a predominantly sedimentary sequence of course to fine clastics with minor carbonate and mafic volcanic rock. Sulphide mineralogy consists mainly of pyrite and pyrrhotite occuring as nodules, lensoid pods and narrow bands conformable with bedding. Traces of chalcopyrite, sphalerite and arsenopyrite are present as well. Cu, Zn, Ni, Co, Mn and As were analysed in sulphides, graphitic shale and wall rock. Results suggest: (1) Sulphides contain higher contents of Cu, Zn, Co, Ni and As than graphitic shale or wall rock and (2) Mn, Zn, Co and Ni content decreases eastward along the formation in graphitic shale. Analyses of a vertical section through the formation suggests: (1) Cu, Zn, and Mn are enriched in the footwall rocks as opposed to the hanging wall rocks, (2) Zn and As are concentrated in graphitic shale in comparison with hanging wall rocks and (3) Co and Ni content is relatively uniform throughout the section. Element ratios have been used to investigate the depositional environment of sulphides and host rock. Results show: (1) Co:Ni ratios in sulphides and graphitic shale are consistent with other worker's data for a sedimentary origin and (2) Mn:Fe ratios are suggestive of volcanic contribution to the Nestern margin of the formation. Carbon content in the graphitic shale varies from 1.60 12.06 %. X-ray studies indicate carbon is either present in an amorphous form or below the detection limit of this technique. X-ray studies indicate the pyrrhotite present is monoclinic possibly derived by metamorphism from pyrite. Evidence suggests that the graphitic shale is derived in a sedimentary basin in which there was volcanic activity at the western margin. This was followed by large scale mafic volcanism. Sulphides derived by sedimentary or diagenetic processes is likely, since there is no evidence for a direct volcanic exhalative source. �AMOCO CANADA PETROLEUM COMPANY LTD.

On structural grounds it appears reasonable to this area to assume that the metasedimentary sequence rests on a basement complex. The unconformity between these two appears to have been remobilized during orogeny and hence is no longer intact. Based on field observation of sedimentary structures several reversals of top directions were determined. These sediments are basically of graywacke composition. Low-grade metamorphism and non penetrative deformation have left primary sedimentary features intact. A maximum thickness of 4,700 feet of sediments was established from the model. The folding is tight isoclinal and slightly overturned, originating from a flexural slip and flow mechanism. THE SILICATE AND SULPHIDE PETROLOGY OF THE KAWENE LAKE INTRUSION silicate and sulphide petrology of the Kawene Lake Intrusion was studied using a transmitted light microscope, a reflected light microscope, a 4-axis universal stage microscope, point counting, chemical analysis and x-ray methods to determine if this intrusion is a strataform pluton, or an alpine type ultramafic. A tectonic environment is also investigated and an origin for the rocks and sulphides is suggested. It is found that this intrusion is not a strataform pluton, but is possibly an alpine type ultramafic lying somewhere in between the two suggested and meffibers, namely the ophiolite suites of Newfoundland and the serpentinites of Vermont. It is also found that this intrusion was syntectonically placed in an Archean eugeosyncline, surrounded by flysh-type deposits. It is suggested that both the sulphur and metal, essential to form the sulphides, came from the magma itself and not from the surrounding rocks or the sea water. �• Mining Exploration and Development • Properties Examined, Optioned and Financed Phelps Dodge Corporation of Canada Ltmtled Suole 1106 - 55 Yonge 51, Toronto, Onl M 5E I J4 ( 4 16) 366 4674 Suooe 404 , 1112 Wul Pender 51 , Vancouver I , B C ( 604) 684 - 6588 Suol t 409-491 Porl ogt Avt, Wonn•Pt<l R38 2E5, Monolobo (204) 775 - 8423 Fredenc:ton.

When the Hollinger mine and Timmins were both young the park was a tailings dump in a shallow lake, unsightly and dusty. More than 40 years ago-long before environmental control became a subject of public concern-the dump was converted into a public park, maintained by Hollinger. It provides facilities for baseball , soccer, track and field events, picnics, field days, concerts and other recreational activities. When the Hollinger mine closed, the park was ceded to the town of Timmins, but it remains a symbol of Hollinger's long-held belief that a successful mining operation can and should enrich the lives of all Canadians. It also provides enduring evidence that the need for environmental control was accepted by Hollinger long before the subject became publicly popular.

Due to this turnover there have been many changes made, both in material and year book staff. When I and a few other concerned students took over,what faced us was an unorganized attempt of putting together a Year Book . We have attempted to put what pieces we had into some semblance of order. We have made no attempt to update the material to any great extent in order to finally get this year book done. Due to thi s many important details have been left out. material Thus I wi 11 give a brief resume of this that was left out of the Year Book . To begin with I will start with the faculty. In the winter of 1973/74 Dr. H. Loubat resigned his position at Lakehead and is now teaching in Quebec. Dr. Garth Platt was hired to fill this vacancy in the fall of 1974. This spring Dr. Jim Frankl in was offered a position with the Geological Survey of Canada which he has accepted. My only comment here is that L.U. Geology has lost one of its finest members . Listed below are the names of all the Geology students from 1974/75.

But much more than minerals ... such as: Jobs- at the mine sites- thousands of them. Jobs- in industries supplying goods and ~ ... ·vices to the mines- hundreds of thousands of them. Exports- about 1/3 of the exports required by Canada to maintain its role as a senior trading nation. New communities- there are hundreds of mining communities across Canada. New opportunities in new communities -for almost every kind of trade, skill , profession, talent or business. New wealth- total value of Canadian mineral production in 1973 exceeded $8 billion -wealth translated into the Canadian economy for wages, salaries, supplies, services, taxes and dividends. The Canadian mining industry is a valuable, useful industry in Canada - valuable and useful enough to be studied, understood and encouraged.

So pervasive was this belief that Copernicus, fearing ridicule, kept his radical manuscript hidden for 36 years. He was on his deathbed when he received a copy of the publication and died without knowing he had acheived lasting fame; without knowing he would be lionized as the Father of Modern Astronomy. This year marks the fifth centennial of Copernicus' birth and to commemorate the man and his great achievements, the Copernicus Observance Commillee of Thunder Bay and the Canadian Polish Congress will present a painting of Copernicus to I,akehead l I niversity on October 12th.

The purpose of the column is to keep Canadians informed of new developments in medicine and science, and to comment on trends or current controversies in the arts or the social sciences. Columns already published or completed have dealt with research on drugs, a new theory and approach to psychoanalysis, a recent statistical study of elites and pressure groups in Canada and a literary controversy. Maclean's expects, and rightly so, that the success of their column will depend heavily on a regular flow of information from across the country - and universities should be one of their main sources of material. Consequently, Maclean's has enjoined the LU Information Office to provide that magazine with information about research being done here, about books or other works in progress, and about personalities and their achievements. Requests, like this one from Maclean's, are an almost daily occurrence at the LU Info Office. So let us know what you're up to and we"ll pass the information along.

Wilson Department of History The sixth congress of the International Association for the Advancement of Educational Research was held in Paris from September 3-7 at the University of Paris (Dauphine), the former NATO building. Eight hundred delegates from fifty-eight countries were in attendance. Conferences of this association are held every four years; previous ones were convened in Warsaw, Cambridge, Oslo and Florence. In many ways the association represents a European version of the American Education Research Association, except that it does not meet annually. There also seemed to be some difference of opinion among conference organizers at this meeting as to whether the association should serve as a learned society or as a pressure group promoting the interests of public education, in this case in France, this year's host country. The conference was officially opened by Mme. SuzannePloux,Secretary of State, representing the Minister of Education. It was clear from remarks made at that time that the French conference organizers were seeking every opportunity to use the presence of so many foreign scholars, assembled in Paris to discuss various aspects of education, as a lever against the French ministry of education. Over half the delegates came from France, and so, although international in scope, the conference was clearly dominated both in language used and viewpoint by the French. Two days before the conference opened, an article in Le Figaro underlined the political pressure of the organizers when it spoke of the "lack of interest" of the authorities and of French public opinion in the science of education, which it described as "a embryonic but growing discipline" in France. This state of affairs sharply contrasted, the article continued, with the well developed state of the educational sciences abroad, "especially in North America, Great Britain and the countries of Eastern Europe." This assessment was certainly borne out by my own experience at the conference. The French in particular were show- ing great excitement about the need for "education totale", "education permanente", "educating the whole child", employing different sorts of modern media in the classroom, self-learning, and especially exploring "the discipline of education in a scientific way": all of this as if these ideas were brand .new. Anyone familiar with the study of education in North America over the past ten or twenty years had a very distinct impression of deja vu. In my own commission (History of Education, only one of twelve commissions ranging from curriculum studies to communication arts to comparative education), the concern with tired-out topics was equally apparent. What passed for educational history was really largely the history of educational thought mixed with a little institutional history. Diderot, Rousseau, La Chalotais, Comenius-suchnames were the order of the day. Our own panel (Dahlie, U.B.C., Jaenen, Ottawa, and myself) on minority education in Canada touched on issues quite removed from the bulk of the papers in the commission, although, be it said at the same time, our papers were well received. The motives behind the introduction of universal schooling and its subsequent effects, changing concepts of childhood, education as a vehicle of social control, and such topics which hold current interest for North American educational historians, were completely foreign to this meeting. For their part the East European scholars seemed most intent of trying to convince us "Westerners" that Marx held the secret to all problems facing educators today. In fact one of the Czech scholars in my commission was not in the least nonplussed when stating that in Czechoslovakia "we teach our students to question everything and then to act on the basis of the conclusion they come to." His memory of August, 1968, was indeed short! One can see, I think, how little of academic value I gained from the conference. I would question the value of sending Canadians - at least in my discipline _- to such conferences where the level of research and topics of interest seem to be one, or tw odecades behind North America. Education as a discipline is clearly much more a weak sister in Europe than here - and1 that is saying something! The only plenary, session speaker of any merit, or interest for that matter, was from the United States. - Dr. William M Birenbaum, President of Staten Island Community College of City University of New York. At the outset of his address he swept aside as meaningless in today's world all the rhetoric about• education encased in fine "scientific" jargon - precisely the sort of claptrap we1 were getting every day from the French and East European delegates. He then went. on to relate in cold, hard terms the real problems facing educators today and offered: some hard choices in the age of mass education. Unfortunately there was little evidence to me that his hard-hitting speech had made the impact it should have. On the brighter side, there is some merit, I suppose, in the individual contacts one makes with educators and scholars from Latin Amerca, Europe, Asia, and Africa. I had memorable discussions with individuals from Zaire, Poland, Bulgaria, Finland, South Africa, Brazil, Iran, Yugoslavia and France. There is also some merit in showing the flag. Finland, for example, was well represented with somefifty delegates, while there was only one person from Sweden. This disparitywasnotedand mentioned to. me by sev9"al aelegates. The proceedings of the History of Education commission, including the three Canadian papers, are being collected by Professor Vial of the University of Caen, and are to be published in due course. Resumes of all the papers in each of the twelve commissions were published prior to the conference under the title L' Apport des Sciences F ondamentales aux Sciences de L'&lucationjThe Contribution of Fundamental Sciences to &lucational Sciences (336 pp.), and may be obtained from Cercle de la Llbrairie, 117 Boulevard SaintGermain, 75006 Paris, France. �Consortium News The first meeting of the Lake Superior Association of Colleges and Universities Coordinating Council was held on October 4, in Duluth.

The coordinating Council will soon be setting up study committees to look at cooperative programme possibilities for the coming year. It is anitcipated that cross-registration, summer school, enviromental studies, Native American studies, and continuing education will be subjects for early discussion. .I oint Graduate Programmes The University of Wisconsin System Central Administration recently recommended regional groupings of certain Wisconsin institutions for the purpose of interinstitutional planning of graduate programmes. The University of WisconsinSuperior is to develop programme planning and review through the Lake Superior Association of Colleges and Universities. The Board of Trustees of the Association, in a meeting held on October 2, hailed the opportunity for regional and cooperative graduate programme development. At the University of Wisconsin-Superior the l'W System Central Administration has recommended the phasing out of eight graduate programmes - 15 existing programmes are being retained. Those being phased out include Master of Science in Teaching programmes in Sociology, French, German, Economics, Political Science, Chemistry, Geology and Geography. According to Dr. Karl W. Mayer, chancellor at UWS, it is assumed that graduate capabilities in the phased out programmes will be taken into account during the process of regional planning through the Lake Superior consortium. Student Affairs "Student Affairs - A Regional Approach" is the title of a conference to be held on the campus of the UW-Superior on November 15. Co-sponsored by the Association and UW-Superior, t!H' conference is intended for professionals and administrators and will feature a workshop format dealing with the various student affairs areas. Graduate Scholarship Programme A new Ontario Graduate Scholarship Programme was recently announced by the Minister of Colleges and Universities,.lack McNie. In 1974-75 the $3 million programme will assist one thousand students of outstanding academic ability to pursue graduate studies at Ontario universities. The scholarships will provide $800 a term plus graduate tuition and related fees for either two or three consecutive terms. Students must apply by December l, 1973 to be considered for scholarships commencing in May or September, 1974 or January, 1975. Ten students will nominated for scholarships by each of Ontario's 15 provincially assisted universities. Thesescholarswill take graduate studies at the university which nominates them. The other 850 scholars will be nominated by a seven-member selection board appointed by the Minister of Colleges and l I niversities and made up of senior faculty members from Ontario universities. The scholars selected by the board will be able to pursue their graduate studies at any of the provincially supported universities in Ontario and will be able to transfer from one Ontario university to another during the tenure of their award. The new program replaces the Ontario Graduate Fellowship Program and is different from the fellowship program in several significant ways. Applicants for scholarships must have a very high level of academic achievement with first class standing in their major subject areas. Previously, second class standing was the minimum qualification. Under the new programme, scholarships may be awarded for graduate studies in all disciplines excepttheology.Graduate studies in medicine, dentistry, education, home economics, social work, journalism and public and business administration were excluded under the previous fellowship programme. The maximum award under the fellowship programme was $2,250 for three terms. Under the Ontario Graduate Scholarship Program the maximum award for three terms is approximately $3,500. Allowance for part-time teaching or research assistantships is also more generous under the new programme. The Ontario Graduate Scholarship Program is intended primarily for Canadian citizens. Preference will be given to Ontario residents. The new programme has been developed in consultation with the Council of Ontario Universities and the Committee on University Affairs. �The Canadian Theatre Review, a new quarterly journal devoted to analyzing theatre activities in Canada, will begin publication this coming January. The magazine will be published by York University through its Faculty of Fine Arts and will be edited by a member of the York Theatre Department, Don Rubin. Each issue will be at least 100 pages in length and will include major essays relating to Canadian theatre as it exists today, historical documentation relating to the Canadian theatre as it existed in the past and regional essays by leading York to Publish Theatre Review members of the theatrical community. Each issue will also include a previously unpublished, full-length Canadian script, ( early issues will include scripts by Geroge Ryga, John Herbert and Michael CooK), theatrical° reference material and reviews of important new books relating to theatre.

Students and teachers of French at all levels and the few thousand people of the region who speak French at home will be able to watch and contribute to their own programme. Dans le Sillon des V <ry"ageurs will be screened on Channel 7 cable television on Tuesday evenings at 8:30 p.m., commencing October 30. It will be re-boradcast at other times during the week, as listed in the TV Guide. This is a community project designed to fill a local need. Concerned at the lack of CBC or commercial television coverage at the Lakehead in Canada's "other" official language, two university professors, Alain Nabarra and David Lewis, approached the federal and provincial governments and local interestgroupswith a plan for six month's broadcasting, using the community television channel provided by Maclean-Hunter Limited. They were encouraged in their efforts by grants from both governments and the French-Canadian Club of Thunder Bay. "This is not a university project", says Professor Lewis, "although we were gratified at the practical help and the encouragement we received from the university. • It is an open communi~y venture, an opportunity for group projects by schools and students of French. We want the schools and French-Canadian groups to come forward with their proposals. This must be a busy programme showing the life of the community, not a studio sit-in." of help by persons willing to become project directors. Our aim is to produce enough material for a lively magazine programme every week, although we shall alternate these shows with a film series at first. We already have programmes planned on cultural life in Quebec, on Europe and Africa, on the attitudes to biculturalism of Thunder Bay citizens and even on points of grammar. Teachers are planning cooking demonstrations in French specially for elementary students. There's no shortage of ideas; it's practical help we want now to make this project really take off." Members of the organizing team are no newcomers to community projects. Alain Nabarra has been running a radio programme in French for three years. David Lewis is a former president of Thunder Bay Symphony and serves on the modern language committee ofLakehead Board of Education. The team is completed by Mrs. Elinor Barr, who has long experience with the Symphony women's committee and its TV Bingo fund-raising, and Ronald Bourret of the French-Canadian Club, who this year completes his degree in French and Sociology. In addit=on to generous help from Maclean-Hunter, the group has offers of technical assistance from Monitor North, a local Initiatives Programme camera team; and Bob Angel, instructor in television arts at Hammarskjold High School. Mr. Nabarra will shortly be going to Montreal to make contacts for the programme and plan four shows with Dr. Reginald Hamel, the well-known author and broadcaster on life and letters in French Canada. Raymond Blanchette, federal aduu, istrator of cultural affairs, welcomes this initiative. "Both the CBC and the federal government are following the project closely. There's never been anything quite like it before among the projects we have sponorsed. This pilot is of interest to cultural minority groups across the nation. It's a national first for Thunder Bay." "Our most urgent need at present", says Alain Nabarra, "is to obtain offers HELP THE UNITED WAY Donald E. Ayre, Secretary of the University and United Way chairman for Thunder Bay, is concerned. He's concerned for all l'1e people who need help and hope to get it from funds provided by the United Way campaign. He's concerned that many of these people who need help won't get it because time is running out and the United Way might not reach its ob- jective. You should be concerned, too. So, get up off your good intentions and support the United Way. NO.

Charles, P1 ,fessor of the Department of Economics, entitled "The Power of Negative Thinking and Other Parables from Jndia". Based on a series of talks given by him in New York, the book attempts to show the extent to which the values and traditions of lndia'sancient culture have a surprising relevance to the issues and problems of our contemporary world. He does this through parables, mostly drawn from the rich store-house of Hindu mythology and folk-lore, though there are some parables here which are from the author's own imagination. One of the recurrent themes of the book is that the negative is integrally related to the positive; emotions like fear and courage happiness and sorrow, love and hate, far from being dichotomous are relatd to each other in a dialectical way. The recognition accorded to the negative in Indian culture, in the author's view, is one of its commendable features. Hence .'.H title, The Power of Negative Thinking. In this book he expresses the concern of the economist for man's happiness and his moral and spiritual development. The book is available in the University Bookstore. John Kerr, Dean of Students, Dan Kleemola and Ed Burk. Dan Kleemola, a fourth year LU Chemistry student, recently recieved a 750dollar Scholarship from the Allied Chemical Company. The presentation of the Scholarship and a sterling silver plaque to commemorate the award was made by Mr. Ed Burk, manager of the local Allied Chemical Plant. The Allied Scholarship is presented yearly to an Honours Science student who possesses a record of high scholastic achievement and who shows 11:reat promise in his or her chosen field. Thecandidateis nominated by the Dean of Science. Dan, who has anaverageofbetterthan 80 per cent, intends to continue his studies at the post graduate level. Ms. Elwert to Library Meet Business Admin. Note Associate Professor of Computer Systems, Bernard A. Hodson, recently completed, at the behest of the Science Council of Canada, a review of"Strategies of Development for the Canadian Computer Industry", Science Council of Canada Report No. 21. Mr. Hodson, to whom the Vice-President of IBM Canada has publically referred as one of three Canadians with vision and the ability to get things done that others in the computer industry felt were impossible, took a critical but constructive stance in his review. Mr. Hodson and A.G. Gardiner - consulting economist and part-time lecturer in ecomonics in the LU Department of Economics - recently co-authored an article entitled "Can Hardware Logic Solve Software Waste?" for the October 20th issue of the Financial Post. In the article, Hodson and Gardiner critically examine the philosphy of special-purpose computer programming and make a strong case for a move to general-purpose programming.

Includen with the article was this note: " Our office was askoo ... , to send you the enclosoo iriformation about the York/TorontoSeminar on the respoT1Sibilities of universities in the hope that you might find roomfor a report in your ccmpus publication that is distributoo ,o academic staff . . . publication at a'o/ time would be appropriate, as attendance is by invitation, the Seminar will extend overacoT1Siderable period of time, and the sessioTIS are closoo to others, including the press. The purpose of publishing the announcement is simply to make the project known to all members of the academic community in Ontario." A group of 19 professors from York University and the University of Toronto, with a small number of representatives of the wider community, recently began a series of discussions the object of which is a restatement for this decade of the responsibilities of the universities and the conditions necessary to their assumption of these responsibilities. Called the York/Toronto Seminar, the project is an outgrowth of conversations that took place between members of the Higher Education Group of the University of Toronto and a comparable group of York University over the academic year 1972-73. It is being supported by a grant from the Richard Ivey Foundation of London, Ontario. Invited participants include Mr. Justice J.D. Arnup, the Supreme Court of Ontario; Walter L. Gordon, Chancellor, York University, former Minister of Finance, Government of Canada; Christine Newman, Associate Editor, Maclean's Magazine, and John P. Robarts, Chancellor, University of Western Ontario, former Premier of Ontario. The purpose of this project is to develop a statement of the responsibilities and essential requirements of universities -- it might be described as a Bill of Rights and Responsibilities of universities -with particular reference to those in Ontario. It is widely recognized that in society certain conditions must prevail if citizens are to be free men or if there is to be a free press. Similarly there must be recognition of the circumstances which must prevail if a university is to fulfil its role as a center of free inquiry and learning. There is a very great and growing danger that the universities in Ontario will lose that part of their heritage which makes it possible for them to perform those functions which as universities they were created to carry out. The prol)km relates to a changing social situation in which there is continual pub- lie criticism of the universities, increasing governmental control of these institutions, and growing uncertainty within the university of its precise obligations. Few would deny the justification of some of the criticisms or of the need for some government regulation of our universities. Yet it is clear that if continued and intensified these criticisms and controls could lead to restrictions that would hinder, if not prohibit, the traditional work of the university: teaching and research. The central core of the university has always been a devotion to intellectual excellence. At its best the university brought together in a corporate life great minds (both faculty and students) and provided them with unusual freedom and protection to interact and to explore new ideas. The university was not merely to preserve the cumulative knowledge of the past but to discover and create riew knowledge. In this free environment a thin stream of excellence was cultivated and fed into the social system. "Without the (constant) renewal of excellence", Sir Eric Ashby wrote recently, "a nation can drop to mediocrity in a generation." The university has, of course, other obligations but without this central core, it loses its fundamental purpose. In Ontario, at the present time, this devotion to scholarship and to excellence is being seriously challenged. The _Co~mission on Post-Secondary Education m Ontario, in its recent report The Learning Society, ; hows small regard for this tradition. The university, the report seems to imply cannot expect public support for esoteric studies or eccentric scholars. Further, the government's financial interest keeps expanding each year to various phases of the universiiy's operations, including academic and research programs. Government bureaucrats, often of junior rank, make decisions that profoundly affect the life of our universities. Many members of the public are more aware of university problems than of university purposes. In this situation it seems important to state clearly and precisely the responsibilities of universities in modern society and the requirements which must be satisfied, the "rights" which universities mu~t have, if they are to fulfil these responsibilities. This is not to deny the need for change nor to reject the desirability of new programs -- indeed it is to state the new responsi'-- ::ities universities must assume. But it must be said now -- before it is too late -- that if the university is forced to move in certain directions or to give up certain freedoms, it can no longer be considered a university. Such a statement is needed for universities throughout the Western world. One dealing specifically with Ontario universities will be general validity. To reiterate: just as certain conditions must exist if we are to have a free press so must certain other conditions exist if we are to have a free university. To determine and define these conditions is the purpose of this project: to define a Bill of Rights and Responsibilities for Ontario universities. This, of course, is an extremely complex and difficult task. It has not been done before -- in Ontario or in any other jurisdiction. But the attempts must be made. If it succeeds a historic document will result. The project is to be carried out by the Higher Educati0 1 Group of University of Toronto and a comparable group at York University. This is agroupofsenior professors from both universities who have been meeting over the past year to discuss common problems and joint programs of study in higher education. The members of the group are: Dr. Robert S. Harris,ProfessorofHigher Education and University Historian, University of Toronto. Mr. Bertrand L. Hansen, Associate Professor of Higher Education, University of Toronto, and Director of Research, Council of Ontario Universities. Dr. John B. Macdonald, Professor of Higher Education, University of Toronto, and Executive Director, Council of Ontario Universities (former president of University of British Columbia), (CoChairman of the Seminar). Dr. Murray G. Ross, University Professor, York University (former president of York University), (Co-Chairman of the Seminar). Dr. Edward F. Sheffield, Professor of Higher Education and Chairman of the Higher Education Group, University of Toronto. Dr. Richard Storr, Professor of History, York University. Dr. D. McCormack Smyth, Professor of Social Science, York University (former Dean of Atkinson College, York University). Dr. Malcolm G. Taylor, Professor of Administrative Studies, York University (former president of the University of Calgary and of the University of Victoria). In order to finance the seminar the Richard Ivey Foundation of London, Ontario, has provided a grant of$10,000. The plan is to organize a seminar of 25 persons who will meet at approximately fortnightly intervals during the winter of 1973/74, 10 professors from each of th_e University of Toronto and York University, S or 6 persons knowledgea~l.e about the problems of high education but who are not academics -- from the fields of government, business, the arts, the courts, the health professions and the press. In addition, one. g':1est from e~ch of the United States, Bntam and Contmental Europe will be invited to speak to and participate in sessions ea~ly in the series. All regular members will be expected to carry on exploration of. the topic between sessions and the meetmgs themselves must be intensive work sessions. �BUSINESS PROFESSOR WRITES AND SPEAKS An article written by Bernard A. Hodson, Associate Professor of Computer Systems, was published in the October issue of the Canadian IQformation Processing Society Magazine. Entitled "A Basic Approach to Systems Analysis", the article was a precis of Mr. Hodson's book Modern Data Processing for Management recently published by MacMillan of Canada. "The Future is Here Now! was the title of a speech given by Mr. Hodson to members of the Fort William Rotary Club at their October 24th meeting. The October 26th issue of The F ortarian had this to say about Mr. Hodson's address: "Listeners received the impression that they were in on a glimpse at the future and of the person who would have a very significant part in moulding it, particularly in the field of computer applications. Mr. Hodson has developed a computer product that will be making a substantial impact on the computer industry." YOU NEVER CAN TELL····· Mr. L. S. Lamba is taking his English 348 - Kenora - class to a production of George Bernard Shaw's 'You Never Can Tell' in Winnipeg on Saturday, November 10th. ENROLMENT PICTURE On October 24, the Minister of Colleges ~nd Universities announced that prelimmary reports from universities indicate a possible increase in December 1 full-time enrolment of about 3%. Compared to last year's undergraduate total of 121,212 this year's may be 124,940 or within 1% of the number projected. First year enrolment may reach 37,312, almost 5% more than in 1972-73, despite a decrease in Grade 13 enrolment for the past two years. Many enrolment reporting officers have indicated a shift in undergraduate enrolments toward professional and career-oriented programs. Enrolments in commerce and finance and engineering are up at several universities. Many stopouts who took time out between high school and university have resumed their studies with career-oriented goals which are reflected in their choice of programs. Full-time graduate enrolment may reach 13,305 compared to 13,128 in 1972-73. The enrolment picture for part-time students is far from clear with some universities reporting increases and others decreases or a steady state. However, some increase is expected when the final counts are submitted early in November.

The Duluth office of the National TelePrompter Corporation ( cable television) has offered to help the Lake Superior Association of Colleges and Universities develop a co-operative network for' cablecast' teaching to serve all Consortium institutions. In brief, a faculty member from one institution would tape Jectures in his specialty which would then by duplicated, sent to area affiliates, and played simultaneously as the core lecture in a regular academic course for all Association students.The programme offers some exciting possibilities for sharing resources and overcoming the disadvantages of geographical separation. Faculty Directory The Association will soon begin compilation of a directory of faculty according to special research or teaching interests to assist those with similar concerns in getting together. The Consortium is also looking into the possibility of a directory of course offering, by discipline, for all six Association insitutions. Linguistics Professor Edith Hols, UMD Department of English, would liketohearfromfaculty with an interest in linguistics. Professor Hols is currently developing a minor in comparative linguistics at UMD. Adio-Visual Catalogue C. M. Milbrath, Department of Secondary Education at UJ\1D, is heading an Association committee to study the possibilities of developing a computerized index catalogue for all non-print material held by the Association.

The Committee meets each year with the provincially assisted universities visiting the campuses on an annual rotating basis. Each year some universities meet the Committee on another university's campus. The Committee had last visited Lakehead in the fall of 1970. At our meeting on the 16th, we formally presented our Fall 1973 Brief to the Committee. The Brief contained items of special interest to the Llniversity as well as answers to the specific questions previously sent to us by the Committee. Through the Briefs submitted by the universities and through the meetings, the Committee on University Affairs attempts to obtain, as stated by the Chairman, Dr. Reva Gerstein, "such substantive arguments and documentation which will strengthen the case for an adequate global financial figure for the entire system." The Committee, which is an advisory body to the C overnment, recommends on such items as the Basic Income l I nit Value, any extra-formula grants universities sh~uld receive and on requests for approval of new academic programmes. We previously requested the approval of, for example, our Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Social Work programme and our Honours Bachelor of Science in l\1edical Laboratory Sciences programme. Both of these were approved and were introduced this year. We did not submit requests in this year's Brief for approval of any new programmes. At our meeting,Ahe topics which espedally interested members of the Committee were the extensive co-operation between Confederation College and the l lniversity; mobility of students particularly from technology programmes to degree programmes; our deferred credit system; reactions of universities to changing student preferences; and research support for faculty members in Departments which do not have the research support of graduate students. Following the Meeting, the Committee _joined representatives of the University at an informal luncheon and later Dr. Booth took the members on a tour of our campus. GRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMME Last issue LU Week reported the implementation of a new OntarioGraduateScholarship Programme which will provide $3 million to assist one thousand of outstanding academic ability topursuegraduate studies at Ontario universities. Each of Ontario's 15 provincially assisted universities will nominate ten students for these scholarships and the chosen scholars will take graduate studies at the university which nominates them. LU Dean of Students, .I ohn !\err, has circulated material pertaining to the C raduate Scholarship Programme to the Chairman of those departments which offer graduate studies. Dean Kerr has also sent letters about the programme to all full and part-time honours students. lie asks that all students intending to apply to the programme check with his office so that application errors can be avoided. The deadline for applications is December 1st. The committee that will review the applications and choose the final ten candidates consists of: The Dean of Arts, the Dean of Science, the Registrar, and the Chairman of the Graduate Studies Committee. The committee will be chaired by the Dean of Students and Mrs. Bobby Hannah, Assistant to the Dean of Students, will act as secretary. The scholarships will provide$800 a term plus graduate tuition and related fees for either two or three consecutive terms. The maximum award undertheprogrammeis approximately $3,500. Applicants for scholarships must have a very high level of academic achievement with first class standing in their major subject areas. ENGINEERING CHAIRMAN PRESENTS PAPER Dr. George K.

The Councils brief to the Commission, prepared by the Committee on Research and Planning, was presented early in 1971, and subsequently published in book form by McClelland and Stewart under the title Towards 2000. Reactions to the Commission's Draft Report from the Council and various COU committees and affiliates were published in May, 1972 under the title Responses. When the final report of the Commission was published at the end of 1972, COU again asked its Committee on Research and Plan- ning to assist with the preparation of the COU response, and at the September, 1973, meeting, the Council approved its response to the report. This latest document undertakes a selective rather than comprehensive treatment of the report, since opinions on most of the matters in the reportwhichconcern the universities had already been expressed in the earlier documents. The latest document isolates a few subjects believed to be of particular i nportance: the place occupied by high standards of quality in the Commission's priorities; the structure of the system; the financing of the system, especially the proposal relating to research financing; student aid; and the place of examinations in licensing for professional practice. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

President Booth acted on behalf of the Chancellor, the Honourable Mr. Justice Bora Laskin, who was unable to attend the ceremony. In turn, Dean Angus, filling the role normally assigned to the President, acted as the presentor of candidates. 246 graduates nceiveddegrees and diplomas during the ce1emony. Dr. Walter Alvah Samuel ',mith, the Convocation Speaker, was introduced by Department of Psychology Professor Dr. James F . Ev ans. As a student at the U niversity of Alberta, Dr. Evans had studied under Dr. Smith and had formed a friendship with him. Consequently, he was able to infuse his introductory remarks with anecdotes that provided a "personal" context from which to view the speaker. Dr. Smith opened his talk with a mild disclaimer as to the validity of speechmaking. He called it "this ineffectual form of communication" as compared to" ... themost authentic approach to personal communi- -0 ...... > C: 0 u cation . . .. the example of your daily activity and interaction". With tongue firmly in cheek, Dr. Smith blamed his lack of strength of character for his inability to stop " .... this pontifical exhortation". He then called on his audience of graduates to engage with him in a " . . . kind of instant nostalgia about the experiences whose successful completion we celebrate here this afternoon." This nostalgia trip became a spring-board for Dr. Smith to explore facets of university structure and life that he disliked ("the awesome intolerance . . . and arrogance") or enjoyed ("those delightfully impractical and totally endless debates .... ") He used his personal love/hate feelings for universities as a background from which to draw out the good and bad points of the present structure of universities. He called for a move away from the lock-step approach to higher education and for a need to rethink the historical antecedants and contemporary assumptions that cause universities to package knowledge in particular disciplinary ways. He went on to say that, the university, while moving away from elitist modes, must not try to be all things to all people. Rather, a b_asis for restructuring should be worked out that combines both order and a social grouping "in which what Maslow would call the good person can come into being and develop ( and) in which, through the authenticity of daily lives, a valid sense of community can emerge". The ceremony was heavily attended by friends and relatives of the graduates. A reception was held in the Great Hall immediately following the Convocation exercise. �0.1.S.E. Appointment The Honourable Thomas L Wells, Minister of Education for the Province of Ontario has appointed Dr. James T. Angus, Dean of the Faculty of Education at Lakehead University to serve as a member of the Board of C overnors of the Ontario I nsititue for Studies in Education. Dr. Angus joins the Board of Governors as a representative of the teacher-training institutions of Ontario for a period of three years. At an OctobermeetingoftheLakehead University Board of Governors, Dr. Angus' appointment as Dean of the Family of Education was renewed for an additional five year term - from July 1, 1971 to .lune 30, l979. Dean Angus Historical Geographers Meet The Fall Merling of theOnlariol lislorical Ceographers was held at Trent l lniversity, Peterborough, on Saturday lO Novembe~. Aboul t.o people attended. The first speaker was 1\1 r. H.S. l>ill{'.y of the Lakehead Ceography Department, who gave an invited paper on "Some Problem Areas in the Teaehing of I listorical Ceograph~·". This paper eonsidered a number of diffieulties faeed by historical geographt•rs in designing and presenting their l'ourses; sul'h as the degree of temporal, spatial and topieal limitation desirable at different levels, the integration of pralil'al and field work and the introduetion of philosophical eoneepts. A strong plea was mad!' for gn•ater emphasis, in historical geograph~· l'ourses, on the critical analysis of data sourl'es and on theoretical model-building, including use of the computer and field-ploller. The paper provoked a remarkably lively discussion for early on a Saturday morning and it was suggested !hat some of the points raised might be considered in grealer depth at laters meetings of this g-roup. I le was initially appointed to the position in l969 when Lakehead Teachers' College was integrated with the University to form the nucleus of the Education Faculty. l I nder Dean Angus' direction, the Lakehead Faculty of Education pioneered the first four-year concurrentteachereducation programme in Ontario, was the first Faculty to offer a full range of elementary and sceondary teacher eertification programmes both concurrently and consecutively and until certifieation regulations caused it to be discontinued, was the only teacher education institution in Ontario to offer a two-year diploma programme for elementary teachers after Grade X 111. A Master of Education Programme specializing in curriculum and administration has reeentJy received favourable appraisal by the Ontario Committee on Graduate Studies and will be initiated in thesummerofl974. /\ grant of $32,850., awarded by the Don- ner Canadian Foundation in October wi assist the Lakehead Faculty ofEducaionl plan a teacher education programme an cur r i e u I um resource centre for India schools in Northwestern Ontario._ Dean Angus received his elementary ec ucation in Muskoka and his secondar education at Parkdale Collegiate lnsti ute, Toronto.

Education Utilization The federal l\linistry of Science and Technology and Statistics Canada are launching a $1.5 million survey this fall to determine how university graduates are using their education. About one-third of the country's estimated 500,000 university graduates will reeeive a detailed six-page, LO question survey in the mail. According to A.S. Bandzierz, a science adviser with the l\linistry, the question- naire will attempt to determine the ed1 carional background of each gradual surveyed and his or her current emplo) ment status. The survey intends to determine how man university graduates take up jobs in thei speciality and how many do not. Raw data from the survey will be mad available to universities and industry i the spring for those who wish tomakethei own analysis.

David Martin, of the Department of Sociology, entitled "Pejorative Factors in the Suspicion of Deception", was recently published in the Journal of Social Psychology, 1973, Volume 91. This note follows Dr. Martin's study, "Suspicion and the Experimental Confederate: a study in the role and credibility", which was published in Sociometry, 1970, Volume 33. Christian Insights Continues The series of free public lectures and panel discussions entitled "Christian Insights in a Confused World" continues on Tuesday, November 27th at 8:30 p.m. in the lower Lecture Theatre. The guest speaker will be Reverend Tim Ryan who will discuss "The Christian Contribution to Man's Search for Liberation." Born in Windsor. Ontario. Tim Ryan received a B.A. in Philosophy at the University of Western Ontario and studied theology at St.AugustinesSeminary in Toronto. In 1%3 he travelled to Brazil as a pastoral assistant to the Catholic Church in Amazonia. After three years there, he continued his post-graduate studies in theology programme at Lyon in France and at Muenster in Germany. He then returned lo Brazil where he worked in the Leader- ship Training Programmes for Catholic church leaders, and concluded his final year there as professor at the Regional Pastoral Institute for Northern Brazil. He is now a professor in the field of Social Ethics at the Toronto School of Theology. In his lecture, "The Christian Contribution to Man's Search for Liberation", Mr. Ryan will reflect upon the meaning of the various movements of Liberation, not only in terms of the claims that their demands make upon us, but also in terms of the human existence that they draw attention lo, and the dynamics of human history that they assume. He will also discuss the implications of Liberation parameters for Christian consciousness in ourday and in our culture. Further lecture in this series will be offered after Christmas.

The fund is administered by a Citizen's committee and has the support of virtually all social agencies, churches and other groups interested in an activity of this nature. The actual work involved in assembling, packing and delivering these hampers is performed by volunteers and requires the efforts of several hundred people. The 50 vehicles used for delivery are furnished by local firms. The firemen of Thunder Bay are, this year profiding a substantial sum of money for the purchase of new toys that will bring j-oy to girls and boys who might otherwise have an 'empty' Christmas. Overwhelming support such as this, as well as from schools and churches where canned goods are collected, and from business firms, organizations, service clubs, unions and interested citizens is vital to the success of the Christmas Cheer effort. In order to continue this worthwhile project, an appeal for funds is being made. Contributions can be mailed to Box 1973, Christmas Cheer Fund, Thunder Bay; the newspaper office, 177 Arthur Street, or the Bank of Nova Scotia, Victoria and May Streets. Correction Since the last issue of LU WEEK appeared on campus, we have been hearing rumours to the effect that the Information Office is caught in a time-warp. We wish to state catagorically that this, to the best of our recollection, at this point in time, is not the case. It is true that in our last issue Dr. Charles was identified as being Chairman of the Department of Economics which of course, is not factual - nor has it been since July 1972 when Dr. Jecchinis became Economics Department Chairman. We also had Dr. Charles toiling mightily to maintain a Graduate Diploma programme for foreign students - that programme ceased to exist in June of 1972. Time-warp: no. Mistake: yes. We wish to apologize to Dr. Jecchinis and Dr. Charles for turning the clock back and for any embarrassment our blunder may have caused them. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Norm Lavoie, an \ssistant Professor in the Lakehead university Department of Physical I lealth and Education will head up the fitness project. The programme, according to Ur. Lavoie, will be open to members of the community: "The testing facilities are set up and ready to go. We will be letting the people of Thunder 13ay know, very shortly, how they can take advantage of the fitness tests." Three additional staff members-with a background in Physical 1 lealth education- will be hired and traineci project. , assist in the People who take the tests will be given a run-down on the degree of their physical fitness and, for those who fai"r poorly in the tests, a programme that will increase their fitness. The over-all test results will be compared with the results of similar tests being done across Canada. "We will then," said Dr. Lavoie, "have a good reading on the degree of physical fitness enjoyed by most Canadians. lf, as we fear, Canadians are not physically fit, we hope the results will encourage people to increase their level of activity." Film Animation Workshop Saturday, November 24, the students in the School of Library Technology were introduced to the art and techniques offilm animation. Mr. Ian McCutcheon, Representative of -the Natinal Film Board of Canada, conducted a one-day workshop during which he not only demonstrated how 8mm films may be made usingsingleframe exposures but also described a filmmaking experiment which had been conducted with children at the Scarborough Public Library. The results of this experiment were a number of imaginative and entertaining films. Following a brief session of instructions, the students proceeded to create four 8mm films themselves using both cut-out and Plasticene figures. A fifth film was made without the use of a camera through the drawing of abstract designs on bleached 16mm film. Enthusiasm was so great that future filming projects are now being considered by the School of Library Technology. It is hoped that the skills learned may be used by the future technicians inprovidingmore varied and more effective library service particularly among children. The School is very grateful to both Mr. McCutcheon and' Mr. D.

Study of Athletic Programmes A study of athletic programs in Canadian universities and colleges and how they fit into the broader picture of Canadian contemporary sport will be jointly sponsored by the Association of l niversities and Colleges of Canada ( Al CC) and the Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic l' nion (CIAU). The study is being financed by the Department of National I lealth and Welfare and is endorsed by Sport Canada. The study will examine the role of universities and colleges in contemporary sport. [twill determine the scope of current university athletic programs, both intramural and extramural, and examine their strengths and weaknesses. The philosophy of university administrators with regard to their athletic programs will be examined as will be the inter-relationship of these programs with physical education and other academic programs. While the programs conducted under the auspices of the CIAU and its member organizations will be of direct interest, the study will also examine how these programs relate to those conducted by amateur sport governing bodies at the provincial, national, and international levels. With Canada hosting the 1976 Olympic C ames, timely consideration will be given in this study to the part the universities play in upgrading standards of excellence and how their facilities and their athletes relate to the international scene. Chief investigator in the study is A. W. Matthews, dean emeritus of the faculty of pharmacy, The University of British Columbia. Assistant investigators have yet to be appointed. The study will be advised by a steering committee with wide representation across Canada. Dr. L. 11. Cragg, president of Mount Allison University, New Brunswick, will act as chairman of the committee. In the first phase of the study, submissions will be invited from AUCC member universities and colleges; officials of sport governing bodies; provincial, regional and national athletic associations; and others. At a later stage, many university and college campuses will be visited by the investigators.

Summer Language Study From July 3 to August 18, for the third consecutive summer, the University will offer an immersion programme in ,rench for English-speaking Canadians and one in English for French~speaking students. The character of Wie course requires that students will be totally engaged in. the study of a second language for the six-week term in an atmosphere aimed at creating the best facilities for such endeavours, under the guidance of experienced bilingual instructors and monitors. Dr. M.A. Colina, director of the programme1 has arranged for twelve staff members to handle in excess of 60 students. Academic activities include exposure to grammar through a review of language structure, workbook study and written composition; to textual study through reading, directed conversation and vocabulary; to FrenchCanadian literature through the study of specific works; to laboratory practice through pattern drill and phonic exercises; and also to conversation sessions which promote free expression of discussions of current events in the new tongue. The French programme, operated on three different levels, can lead to credits for French 1p6, 1b6 and 2b6. Such activities are designed to keep participants occupied during the 9:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m. workday. But this is only the beginning. Instructors and monitors are expected to engage all the students in conversation in the second language during meal-time and after work hours. In addition, a variety of cultural activities are laid on for evenings and weekends. Besides an excursion to St. Boniface, Manitoba, these include play readings, informal discussions on Canadian problems, tours of Thunder Bay and area, sing-a-long sessions( cine-club, poetry-club, poetry recitals, special ectures by guest speakers, and a group or individual project. Such involvement is mandatory on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Social gatherings for those who wish to attend are scheduled for Wednesdays. On Fridays and Saturdays, participants are free to partake of University and community activities. The Summer Language Training Programme is funded by the Federal Governmentandadministered through the Ministry of Education in Ontario. Math Representative · Dr. W. Eames of the Department of Mat_hell)atJcs has recently been elected to the Council of _the Ontario Association for Mathematics Education.

At the meeting held on May 31, Dr. Zawadowski was elected Vice-President of the Association. Congratulations and best wishes to Dr.Zawadowski for continuing fruitful work in this area! Finnish Cours_es In direct response to local community need, the Department of Languages will institute courses in Finnish language and culture which could form the foundation for a future degree programme. The courses include elementary Finnish for beginners, intermediate Finnish for those with some background in the language, and a course on Finnish culture which will oe offered in English. Tlie plan has been approved for the coming academic year by the Senate. Local interest in the study of Finnish has been nurtured by Mrs. T. Kohara, who has implemented programmes at Hillcrest and Hammarskjold high schools. At present there are 93 students studying Finnish as a second language in Thunder Bay. Mr. E. Peterson, Chairman of the Finnish Scfiool Committee made an official request to Lakehead University to providecontinuingdevelopment for these students, as well as others in the community. As a result of a recent survey, fifty-four people are already committed to one or more of these courses. Professor And.re Cloutier, acting chairman of the Department of Languages, indicates that Lakehead wnl be the first university in Ca11_ada to in•c1lJde Finnish courses of any kind in its programme. Negotiations are currently underway with the Finnish government, who have indicated their willingness to provide a professor for the courses, and also to underwrite part of his salary. Professor Cloutierfeels that such cooperation �New Appointment Dr. Robert Campbell Joyner has been appointed by the McMaster University Board of Governors as Dean of the Faculty of Business for a term of five and a half years.

The primary objective of the Centre for International Co-operation is to provide rehable information advice, and encouragementtoanyone interested in international involvement, particularly in education and development Towards Cooperation The Centre for International Cooperation has opened in the Lakehead University Mall. It is a non-profit charitable organization, separate from the university, that is filling a void in Thunder Bay. Realizing Thunder Bay's isolation, the Centre hopes that its international work in this city will allow people to expand their minds and participation beyond the confines of Thunder Bay. Lloyd Jones, its executive director, conceived the idea in August of 1971 when he moved here from Sarawak, Borneo. Having served with the Canadian International Development Agencr and the United Church of Canada overseas, loyd has had formal training at McMaster University (B.A.) and the University of the Pacific (M.A. Education Counselling). His master's research programme was on the concept of a "World University". Mr. Lloyd Jones The Centre has already published a "Handbook for Overseas Students' , available free of charge and has arranged short term home stays for several overseas student visitors last summer. It has assisted several overseas students financially and has/rovided fre~ of charge publicity for Lakehea University at several centres around the world. The Centre hopes to initiate a "Mother Peace News" - an international magazine of informal exchange, a twinning programme between Thunder Bay and Borneo, and will continue to make the resource centre in the mall more comprehensive. For your interest, similar centres exist in Hamilton, Toronto, Guelph, Antigonish, Saskatoon, Winnipeg and other cities. �Athletics Notes Howard B. Lockhart, director of the Lakehead University Basketball Camp, announces that the camp will be held in two sessions this year: August 20 August 25 and August 27 - September 1.

From The Ministry The Ontario Minister of Colleges and Universities, the Honourable Jack McNie, recently announced a seminar on post-secondary learning to be held at Hart House, University of Toronto, June 11-13, 1973. The purpose of the seminar is to consider the development and co-ordination of all forms of post-secondary learning that aim to meet individual needs in Ontario during the next decade. It will draw up to 400 delegates with a variety of backgrounds from across the province. A $250,000 experimental programme entitled Festival Ontario, has been announced recently by the Honourable Jack McNie. Its aim is to provide local arts festivals with backup resources in the form of displays, demonstration and administrative expertise Jhrough agencies such as the Ontario Science Centre, the Royal Ontario Museum, the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Ontario Arts Council, the Provincial Archives and the Ontario Educational Communications Authority. Provincial support to local museums has been increased to $240,000, double last year's figure. The big increase complies with recommendations in the Report of the Commission on Post-Secondary Education in Ontario. Local museums are expected to play an increasingly imrortant role in the cultural and educational life o Ontarians. Grants to six cultural agencies total $12,366,000, up substantially over the previous year. Agencies include the Ontario Arts Council, the Royal Ontario Museum, the Ontario Heritage Foundation, the McMichael Canadian Collection, the Art Gallery of Ontario and the Royal Botanical Gardens in Hamilton. Papers Read Dr. George K. Fleming, Chairman of the School of Engineering, presented two _papers recently, namely: "Application ofa Small Digital Computer to the Mechanical Pulping Process" with D.K. Alexander, The Great Lakes Paper Company, read to the Second International Symposium on Pulp and Paper Process Control, Montreal, and "Isolating Vibrations in a DS-32 Disc" read to the Digital Equipment Computer Users Society Spring Meeting, Philadelphia. �between Finland and Thunder Bay has a good chance of developing because the local Finnish population of roughly 10,000 is the largest concentration outside the mother country. BA/BSW Programme Dr. William T. Melnyk, Dean of Arts at Lakehead UniversJty announced recently that Deputy Minster of Colleges and Universities Dr. Gordon Parr, recently communicated that the Committee on University Affairs had approved the University's proposal for a Bachelor of Social Work degree programme. This approval is the culmination of plans, research and discussion initiated by the faculty and administration of Lakehead University as far back as 1967. The main argument in favour of such a programme lies in the fact that there are a great number of social workers in Northwestern Ontario who do not hold degrees in social work. It is the primary aim of this particular programme to provide badly needed upgrading for such people. The programme will begin by accepting students already working as social workers in Northwestern Onta.rio. Courses will be offered in the evening, and during the summer and_ i_n_tersessional terms for part-time students. In add1t1on, the 1;>rogramme will admit a small number of full-time students who display promise of being employed as social workers in Northwestern Ontario. Basically, four categories of people wil_l be eligible for admission. The first category will be students enrolling in the first year of the four year degree programme and completing all the requirements for the BA/BSW. Secondly, thosewho have already completed B.A. studies may enroll to complete the additional courses necessary to reach the Bachelor of Social Work level. A third category will include students transferring from studies in other disciplines. It is anticipated that graduates of the Social Services diploma at Confederation College will be awarded credits toward the BA/BSW degree, according totheaccomplishments of the applicants. The final category includes people already employed as social workers and who wish to upgrade their qualifications. Recent surveys have sfiown that demand among the latter for a programme of this type is very great. Admission to the programme will be decided on the basis of each applicant's qualification_s. _This will be accomplished through an adm1ss1ons screening committee composed of the Prog_ram~e Director, Dean of Arts, Registrar of t~e University and two senior social workers from the community who may or may not be involved in teaching or adv{Jing in the programme. Existing requirements for adult admission and admission-into the Faculty of Arts at Lakehead University will apply. Full credit will be given for professional and related experience. For further information or application forms, please write or phone the Registrar, Lakehead University, 345-2121, Extension 269. Applicants will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis for the first course, scheduled to begin this fall.

In-House Operation Editor's Note: Mr. Ted Broughton, Director of Physical Services recently requested that the following note be included: Over the past several days, a good number of Faculty members and people in the Administration have inquired as to how the gym floor in the C.J. Sonders Building is brought up and mode to look so beautiful. It is a pleasure to hove everyone advised through your media that the floor is roughed, finished and stained by members of the Housekeeping group of the Physical Services Deportment of whom we ore very proud. The Gym generally is closed for a week because there is great detail in the necessary scrubbing, rinsing, the use of steel wool and the proper application of a gym finish. This has to be done twice to get the proper build-up and hardness for the use this floor gets during the year's activities. mee~ings Reclassification The Association of Professional Engineers of the Province of Ontario has recently extended its clo_ssifications of Professional Engineers by instituting the designation of specialists in a number of fields.

Consequently, the Council passed a resolution which calls for the university shown asfirstchoice on a student's application on May 18 (the collectively agreed first date for offers of admission) to retain the formula grant for that student even if the student subsequently accepts another university's offer and receives an entrance scholarship at that university. The Council is asking all boards of governors to agree to this arrangement for one year only. The Council will provicle a clearinghouse function to redistribute income to accomplish the objective.

Entrance Scholarships The Council of Ontario Universities hasdiscussed at length the recent trend for universities to introduce new or expanded programmes of entrance scholarships. Although there was general support for the desirability of attracting to the universities more students of high ability, it was recognized that entrance scholarships could have the desirable effect of causing students to alter their first choice of university, thus denying the original university both good students and the government income attached to them. Such a situation was viewed as representing an undesirable and unnecessary competition which would aim at in- Gord Garvie of Lakehead University, Manager of the 1973 Canadian Wrestling Team which will compete in Moscow August 15-25, has announced that the team will train at Lakehead Universitr from July 28 to August 9.

Suzuki Method The Faculty of Education Auditorium was the site of a rare talent education demonstration on Monday evening, June 11. At that time, Mrs. Marian Moody and her five-year-old daughter Lisa, pictured below, explained and illustrated the Suzuki Method of early child training for the violin. Mrs. Moody holds a Bachelor of Music Education degree from the University of Toronto, and has been involved in thetalenteducationprogramme in Saskatoon for a number of years. She explained how this approach to early musical training grew out of the philosophy of the great Japanese violinist, Shinichi Suzuki, who wrote, shortly after the Second World War, that "All human beings are born with great potentials: each individual has within himself the capacity for developing to a very high level. Education begins from the day of birth. We must recognize the amazing power ~f the infant to absorb everything in his surroundings and add to his knowledge. If attention is not given to early infancy, how can the child's original power be developed?" · . ·Lisa and Mrs. Moody· . The talent education programme based on this philosophy entails the joint training of parents and their three-or four-year-old children. While the mother, in private and group sessions, becomes familiar°with the fundamentals of handling a standard violin, her son or daughter is given a bow and styrofoam replica of a violin with which to become familiar. After a few such sessions, the child is given a miniature violin ranging in size from J/l0to J/4 the volume of a standard instrument. From then on, mother and child learn together. Suzuki's faith in the tremendous learning capacity of young children becomes apparent in a few short weeks when the child begins to learn faster than his parent. Mrs. Moody leaves soon for demonstrations of the Suzuki Method in Europe. 0 n Li bra ry Services The School of Library Technology hosted a Workshop on Library Services in Health Care Institutions, June 14, 15 and 16 which was sponsored by District Hospital Council No. 12, Ontario Hospital Association, Ontario Medical Association and the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario.

Pregram Launched The Ministry of Colleges and Universities has announced that funds have been made available for support of the Ontario Universities Program for Instructional Development. The program will operate under the direction of the Joint Subcommittee. on Instructional Development of the Council of Ontario Universities arid the Committee on University Affairs. Up to $150,000 will be available in the current year for support of projects approved under the · program. Funds for the operation of an office to activate and administer the program hav.e also been provided. . The Joint Subcommittee instituted a search in March for a director for the program and has now appointed Professor Harold M. Good to this position. Professor Good has rece~tly been Associat1e Head of the Department of B1olo.9y at Queen s University. Formerly presillent of CAUT, and an officer of the Ontario Committee of Heads of Departments of Biological Sciences, he is the author or co-author of several reports on university teaching and related matters. The Director will be seconded from his normal university appointment for an initial period of two years. The aim of the program is to assist individual faculty members in Ontario universities and the universities themselves in improving the effectiveness and efficiency of their instructional processes. No approach consistent with this aim whether concerned with the contribution of students the organization of teacher time, the de0 mands of research and administration, or the use of technical devices such as TV or computers is regarded as outside the scope of the program. · The Director has expressed the hope that all members of the university community - students, staff, and administrators - will take an active interest in the program. Letters to the Director reporting activities which relate to instructional development, and suggesting priorities will be welcomed. �hi lirary Use W88KI~ Camp First evencs For the first time in Northwestern Ontario there will be a special summer camp for children with Learning Disabilities, Mrs. Janet Tothill, President of the Thunder Bay Chapter of the Ontario Association for Children With Learning Disabilities, announced recently. This Association which helps children with Learning Disabilities is conducting a campaign to raise funds to finance the project through public subscription. The Camp will operate during the last two weeks of August. In describing the activities that will take place Dr. J.H. Widdop, Programme Director, states that a major part of the programme will be taken up with specially designed exercises to improve coordination and eye-hand movements. Such exercises have been found helpful in the treatment of Learning Disabilities. Dr. Widdop, who is Director of Physical Education at Lakehead University, conducts a similar exercise class throughout the winter months. Located at the Anglican Church Camp at Sandstone Lake, the camp will beabletoaccommodate fifty children, twenty-five during each week. The child with a Learning Disability associates school with some very unpleasant experiences, resisting learning in a school situation. Mrs. Doreen Kronick of the Canadian Association says, "In the camp situation the child is more relaxed than in the school atmosphere, and a child who normally resists walking along the walking board will follow his cabinmotes across a fallen log. A youngster who would neither print nor spell in school may proudly label the things he has found in the woods."

In addition to leading his team to the Provincial championshi·ps • he is the only player to ever compete in four Provincial finals. After being his team's most improved player in 1970 he was team captain, M.V.P., leading scorer, and leading rebounder in 1971 and 72. In addition to his outstanding physical skills Barkman was voted Bedford Roads most sportsmanlike player with ability. After taking a year off to work in B.C. Barkman will enter first year and study either Geography or Physical Education. According to Coach Howard Lockhart, "Lester is 6'5" and over 200 lbs. He could play bigger than he is because of his strength. It will take a while to get back into condition but he could help in his first year. We feel fortunate to land a player of this caliber who has one of the best records to ever come out of Saskatchewan. We have been getting a lot of inquiries this year from all across Canada." �for lirary Use Oa1J W88KI~ Thursday July 12 Friday July 13 Saturday July 14 Sunday July 15 Wednesday July 18 Thursday July 19 Friday July 20 Saturday July 21 Sunday July 22 Friday July 27 Saturday July 28 Sunday July 29 even~s -Beer Garden - No Admission Charge - 4 to 8 p.m. - Cafeteria -Moonlight Melodrama - 8 p.m. Water Street "The Last Loaf" -Dance "Black Lightning", 9 p.m., Main Cafeteria. -Moonlight Melodrama, 8 p.m., Water Street "Dracula" -Dance "Black Lightning", 9 p.m., Main Cafeteria -Movie "Last Picture Show", 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m., UCT -Moonlight Melodrama, 8 p.m., Water Street "Only an Orphan Girl" -Movie "Last Picture Show", 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m., UCT -Midnight Melodrama, 8 p.m., Water Street "The Secret c:J the Spyglass" -Moonlight Melodrama, 8 p.m., Water Street Award Renewed Dr. Andrew D.
