Gregory Baum is already well known in Thunder Bay. He has pioneered thought in the contemporary issues of ecumenism and .Jewish-Christian relationships; and he has recently gained recoghllion for his work in the social sciences and their relationship to theology. He is a member of the Department of Religious Studies, St. Michael's College, the University of Toronto and the Toronto School of Theology. Recently, he spent two years at the New School for Social Research in New York, and since that time his teaching and sociological reflection have been strongly influenced by the dialog.ie with the social sciences. The second speaker in this series will be Tim Ryan who will discuss 'The Christian Contribution to Man's Search for Liberation' on Tuesday, November 27th in the lower Lecture Theatre. Further lectures in the series will be offered after Christmas when arrangements have been finalized.

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.

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.

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. McLean, the Thunder Bay Representative of the National Film Board for allowing us to participate in a most rewarding and enjoyable learning experience.

Bruley Speaks at Seminar A seminar and workshop on the 13asic Technology of the Pulp and Paper Industry and its Waste Reduction Practices was sponsored by The Water Pollution Control Directorate, Environment Protection Service, Environment Canada and held at the Pulp and Paper Research InstituteofCanada, Pointe Claire, Quebec during November 1 l, 15 and 16, 1973. The purpose of the seminar was to familiarize Environment Protection Service personnel with the many phases of pulp and paper technology to examine the sources and composition of mill effluents and to examine the latest technology of waste reduction practices. It was looked upon as a major contribution toward improving understanding and communication between the regulatory bodies and the industry. A. .I. Bruley, Associate Professor in Chemical Engineering along with an Industrial Consultant, Mr. S. Shastri of Toronto were the principal lecturers for the first two days. The third day highlighted a lively panel discussion with management representatives from industry and tour of PPRIC. 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.

Evans, Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology, recl'ntly received Canada Council Grants. The award which was granted lo Dr. Zawadowski will be used for research on French in Canada. It will enable him to spend some time in the French-speaking regions of Canada, to collect new materials related to the French language used there, and to take advantage of the large collections and library ·resources inQuebecCity, l\1ontreal, and other centres. His research will be primarily concerned with the phonetic and gramatical phenomena that char- acterize the French speech in large centres which have much contact with Enl,{lish. Dr. Zawadowski will also enquire into the linguistic status of the various status of French. The Canada Council Crantawarded to Dr. .lames Evans is in the form of a Leave Fellowship. ( It consists of a basic award to supplement his sabbatical salary, plus an allowance to cover research expenses while on sabbatical.) l>r. Evans is an experimental social psycholol,{ist and his specialty is social motivation. Three years ago, because of a weight problem, he began running for exercise. Now, he runs five miles a day, 6 days a week. His experience with the effects of becoming physically fit resulted in a dl'('ision lo focus his resrarch on the social psycholo1-,ry of physical and ml'ntal heillth. llis research intl'rests will take him to Europe, particularly the Scandinavian countries - where the physical fitness orientation of thl' Scandinavians is reflected in the environment they have constructtd to encourage health oriented pursuits. l>r.

Christian Insights Continues The series of free public lectures and panel discussions entitled "Christian Insights In A Confused World" which began last November - with guest s·peakers Gregory Baum and Tim Ryan - will continue on Tuesday, January 15th, at 8:30 p.m. in the University Centre Theatre. The guest speaker will be the Rev. Edward Checkland - pastor of the First Baptist Church in Edmonton, Alberta -on ''The Person In Christian and Contemporary Thought" which will include a discussion of the contribulion that Christian thought has made lo the development of the individual, what Christian thought can offer a person, and what is happening in the modern world through the impact of the technical mind and how Christian thought can help to offset the growing sense of alienation and depersonalization. Edward Checkland was born in Ottawa. He received his B.A. and B.l). at McMaster University and compll'ted tw_o years of post-graduate work at Yale. He was the pastor of the largest Baptist church in Winnipeg for 7 years and in Hamilton for 5 years. He has been pastor of the First Baptist Church in Edmonton for 13 years and is currently lecturing in thl' religious education coursl' at the University of Albl'rla. Lakehead l lniversity faculty members and local clergymen will act as resource people for the discussion and participation that is stimulated by the speaker. This lecture series is sponsored by Lakehead University and The Thunder Bay Council of Clergy. Further lectures will be announced as detail's become available. �American Potters Visit Lakehead Terry Anderson and Jasper Bond, teaching assistants to Professor Glenn Nelson at the University of l\linnesota ( Duluth) were at the Lakehead University Pottery Studio November 30 - December 2, to meet the students taking the pottery course and to instruct in a community workshop. Also, they gave a public lecture, accompanied by slides of Japanese and European potters and their work, and a movie of life in a modern Japanese pottery villag-e. The Pottery department at the l :niversity of Minnestoa is known to be one of the best in the l ' nited States, and it is hoped this will be but the first of a continuing series of visits their faculty will make to us. The next visiting potter is \lary h:eepax, whose surrealistic pottery aroused considerable comment when she had her first show in London, England,afewyearsago. She will be here at the end of January.

Donahue to Sir Lawrence Olivier,yourate somewhere between Vince Edwards and the department store mannequin in Miracle on 34th Street". ( A minority verdict had it 'that Vince Edwards actually played the department store mannffJuin in Miracle on 34th Street.) _Funny, I thought, you' re funny: I am easily amusoo, especially be myslef. Perhaps I would amuse Dr. Lavoie with my wonderful sallies. I was early. Norm, I was told, could be found. in the Squash Court. And so he was: a sizeable chunk of sweat and fury hurling himself after the small black squash ball with a type of dedication usu. ally ascribed· to the routing of devils from an •unwilling body by a frantic exorcist. Norm wo·n his· point. The game slowed while. his playing partner attempted to corral"the recalcitrant ball and Norm look•• ed up, saw me at the court-side window Dr. Norm Lavoie (left) applies electrocardiogram senso,y contacts to part-time guinea pig and full-time·assistant, Clyde Tuyl: Clyde walks a variable speoo treadmill while heart rate and oxygen-intake data are Joo into a computer monitoroo by Hartmut Rosenfeld. by O'Dwyer and raised five fingers in a time signal. Presently, Norm cli~bed out oftheSquash court womb. We met and shook hands.rather, he shook me, while I hung on. Dr. Norm Lavoie is an exercise physiologist and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physical and Health Education. And he had some news: "Can we talk? Okay, I'll meet you around 10:30 outside the Human Performance Laboratory at the Field House." Foreshortened by my topsidevantagepoint at the squash court window, Norm looked formidable. Standing in front of me he looked BIG. I decided not to attempt to amuse him with any Human Performance sallies. ( If, like Queen Victoria, he chose not to be amused . . . I shuddered.) "Come on, let's go to the lab." _I grabbed my camera and headed across campus. The mind wanders: What is a Human Performance Labomto,y? It could be a large and dusty place, haphazqrqly strewn with batteroo Klieg lights' peeling scenery.flats and sweat,-stainoo costumes - a ~ ago roar-of the-greasepaint ... smeft-:{f the-crown place. Do you go, there, recite a few lines of Othello, or perhaps, mumble Bmndo's part from A Streetcar Named Desire, and . receive a verdict on your acting ability froff1 · a panel of eminent thes. pians? ·" Wei~ son, on· a scale from Troy As we jogged down the hallway, Norm explained his work: "At the Human Performance Lab, we have all the equipment necessary to evaluate an individual's level of physical fitness. And, we recently received a LIP Grant that will enable us to open the Lab facilities to the public. This apparatus is usoo to obtain cardiorespirato,y information from athletes. The rest of us are testoo on thebicyclergometer. "I believe that most Canadians are not particularly fit. Although, we do expect that the people of Northwestern Ontario �will be more fit than those from southern centres. • "People who take advantage of the tests will be told in what areas they are physically deficient and advised about how they can improve their level of fitness. The test results will be compiled and sent _to a clearing house that will correlate data from similar programmes across Canada. 'Norms' will be established and the final results will be submitted to federal and provincial governments." Norm estimates that approximately one thousand peo_ple will take advantage of the fitness tests. He intends to make the people of Thunder Bay aware of the programme through advertising and a half-hour television show which is presently being prepared - with the aid of Larry Hebert, an LU grad and Personnel Officer at Lakehead Psychiatric Hospital - and will be aired on CTNO, Cable 7, sometime soori. Norm continued: "We've already tested approximately 700 students in the Northwestern O htario area, including 200 public school kids at Atikokan. You see, the Atikokan School Board is implementing a new physical education programme. We'll re-test the kids again, after the programme has been going for a while, and compare the results -to seeofthephys-ed programme is working." At the lab, Norm introduced me to Clyde . Tuy! and Harmut Rosenfeld - both LU • Physical and Health Education grads-who will assist in the testing procedures. The fitness test itself actually consists of five separate tests: "But, said Norm,"before the test can be administered, you must have a certificate of physical-well being from your doctor. This, of course, is no measure of your physical fitness - but it does indicate that you can take the tests without harming yourself. As a second precaution, we'll take your blood pressure. If it's too high - we stop right there." The mind wanders: I had decidoo to take the test myself. But not without a great deal of trepidatwn Once I had been fairly active: of late, I have been extremely sedentary. I could easily imagine the test results: "Well, on a scale from Cass El/wt to Jorge Johansen (my name for that infuriatingly fit 65 year old Swooe we middling-young Canadians . are incessantly comparoo to) you rate somewhere between a poi-bellioo Jack Spratt and a corpse." Unfortunately (probably in more ways than one) I did not have a doctor's certificate so could not be testoo. A reprive: but Tvowed to return I mentioned to Norm that - test or no test - I knew I was in poor physical condition and, to add injury to insult, I drank a bit and smoked a lot. As with most of my fellow addicts, I would like to quit smoking. But drinking ... well, one vice out of the multitude available isn't too bad, is it'? "Well, Mike, we don't intend to tell people to stop everything they do - I drink the odd beer myself. But what we want to stress is this: No matter what you do, you'll enjoy it a heck of a lot more if you're physically fit. "You should tell people, though, that if they want to take the fitness tests, drinking, ·smoking or eating prior to the tests will affect the results. So some abstention is advisable at that time." The fitness test itself goes something like this: First, the skin-fold test. A millimeter-callihrated pincher device is used to estimate the percentage of body weight that is fat. Measurements are taken in the tricep,chest and stomach areas. Fat, by the way, isn't necessarily unhealthy. A normal person carries about 8 to 10 per cent fat: but watch where you carry it. Next, a grip device - squeezed alternately by right and left hand - is used to determine approximate over-all body strength. The vital capacity testor is the next stop. This device measures the volume of air which can be held by the lungs. Theperson being tested - or "testee" as he is known in the trade and probably is in fact, by this time - exhales into the machine and a volume measurement is taken. Lastly, the biggie: themaximumoxygenintake test - or, more professionally, the Astrand Rhyming Nomogram Test (named after Dr. Per-Olaf Astrand an exercise physiologist in the Department of Physiology at the Swedish College of Physical Education, originator of the test and a world-renowned authority on fitness). Back to Norm: "The maximum oxygen· intake is the amount of air the heart and lungs can take in and use in one minutl'. This is the best test for cardio-respiratory fitness which is the most important component in over-all physical fitness. A fit cardio-respiratory system is vital to •a healthy person, and conversely, a fit person must have a healthy cardio-respir, atory system." The subject is hooked up to an electrocardiogram and placed on a bicy~lers rogometer - a one-wheeled cycle-like machine, similar lo the type used in places like Vic Tanney's. He then pedals in time lo a metronome for fourteen minutes while Norm's gnomes make it increasingly difficult to pedal the infernal contraption - by tightening up the pedalling mechanism. And that's all there is to it. Well, almost. The results are tabulated and presented. Then, if the results are less than satisfactory and if you care about your health, the work begins. • The mind wanders: Tomniorow'sHeadlin_e - Joggers Jam Throughways: Canadians Surpass Swooes in Levels of Fii. ness.

Written by Professor .Tolm Fraser flart, present F.ditor of the 1nnals of the 1merican ·1ssociatw11 of Geographers, the report is a blend of his 01m 1cell kno1rn bmnd of humour and a geneml(y good report of our iwrk. l think ... that the report 1wut.d make ~m~ing and interesting readi,wfor many. {l'.e agree ... \o one in his right mind expects a meeting of the Canadian :\ssocialion of Ceographers, lhe report is a blend of his own graphers lo be enlivened by torrid lerpsichore or educational films not totallv without redeeming social value. The Department of Ceography at Lakehead l niversitv in Thunder Bav, Ontario, which played host to C\C 73 on \lay 27-:-31, 1973, did its best lo provide an innovative and stimulating program of intellectual and social activities. The first full day, \lonlav, was devoted lo Canadian aspects of thai hardy perenn1al geography and public policy. The day was chaired by F. h:enneth II are, who delivered a keynote address laced with skepticism. \.I.. :\icholson placed the issues in historical perspe(·tive, R.S. Thoman discussed t'(·onomic development, C. I. Jackson deseribed the role of the \ Iinistn of State for l rban \ffairs indevelopingpolicywith respect to urban centres, and.I.I\. \aysmith talked about land use planning "\orth of Sixtv". Sixty-one volunteered papers were grouped into twentv sessions on Tuesday and \\ ednesday, a'n arrangement which· provided quite enough time for the diseussion of each paper. The unfortunate illness of I..E. I lamelin prevented lhe delivery of his Presidential i\ddress on "Perception et Ceographie: Le cas du .\ ord," which might have demonstrated that Canada is de _jure si non de facto bilingual.

The library teehnician movement hascoml' of agp throughout Ontario and a consensus lo form a strong provincial organization has recently moved from talk lo action. 11 umber College, Rexdale, Ontario was the meeting place for a group of 26 diploma technicians in la1e()c1ober. Since the majority of the members of C.L.T.A. wereOntarians, it wasfeltthatathrustshouldbe made by forming strong provincial associations that would eventually form the foundation for dominion organization. The problems in organizing C.L.T.A. have been grpat ,(ue lo lack of finances, geography, and the fact that all the organization is being done on a volunteer basis. Such an association could only be officially set up and organized at a conference for technicians. With these factors in mind, the technici.ans who attended the meeting felt that it is most important lo begin the steps of organization for a Technicians Conference. Thus, an interim committee for the Ontario Association of Library Teehnicians was formed. This committee consists of !\fr. Douglas Willford, Library Technician, I lumber College ( Niagara College Craduate), Chairman, Ms Micheline Overall, Library Technician, Documentation Centre ( Algonquin College C raduate), Secretary Treasurer, and Ms Charlolle . J<]wert, Lab Assistant, School of Library Technology ( LakehPad University Graduate), Chairperson of Publicity and Programming. This commillee will draft a Constitution and make plans for the first annual meeting of the Technicians Association, and will endeavour to promote the aims and objectives of the Association. A meeting of the Interim Commillee will take place In Ouawa in late February as Algonquin College (Ottawa) has offered to host this proposed conference, . and so the Committee will be meeting to finalize plans for the two day conferenc~. �even~s Friday January 11 Saturday January 12 Tuesday .f anu!lry 15 Thursday January 17 Friday January 18 Saturday January 18 Tuesday January 22 Library Technology fihns "Assignment", "Because They Are Different", "Brendan Behan's Dublin" will be shown al 1 p.m., Room L - 5002.

Grad Employment Rising Employment of Ph.D. graduates of Ontario universities has shown a riseof20 per cent over last year without increasing the number of unemployed Ph.D.'s according to a statement issued by the Council of Ontario Universities. At a recentnewsconference, held under the auspices of the Canadian Association of Graduate Schools, figures were released which were compiled by Dr. M. A. Preston, Executive ViceChairman of the Ontario Council of G raduate Studies and Professor of Physics at McMaster. The statement noted that therehavecontinued to be reports of current large scale unemployment of persons holding Ph.D. degrees, as well as forecasts suggesting future employment difficulties. These speculations, it said, are not substantiated by the actual experience of recent doctoral graduates. At the time of handing in their theses to the graduate school in the L972-73 academic year, 96 per cent of the Ph.D.'s had jobs. Of the remaining four per cent, the statement !!aid, some will since have ob- tained employment, and some are no doubt unemployed. This is essentially no change from the last two years, although the number of Ph.D.'s awarded has risen. would be unwise to reduce new enrolment on the basis of the present business climate, since those now entering Ph.D. studies will not emerge for five years. In 1970-71 there were 1,314 Ph.D . graduates in Canada of whom 72 did not have jobs when the theses were turned in; for 1971-72 thecorrespondingfiguresare L,146 and 53; for 72-73, they were 1,739 and 64. The statement noted the 20 per cent rise in Ph.I> .'s awarded over last year and that the unemployment rate of new Ph.D.'s is, therefore, less than four per cent. This four per cent rate, it said, should not be compared with the higher general unemployment rate in Canada, but rather with the much higher rate of the young people in the work force. It is also less than the unemployment rate of persons with bachelor's degrees. Speaking of the kinds of jobs taken by the Ph.D.'s, the statement said the most noteable shifts were a continued decrease in university teaching and in industrial employment. In 1964-69, university teaching was designated by Ph.D.'s as their first employment. This is now down to 35 pt>r cent, though the number so employed is 11 per cent higher. Industrial employment of Ph.O.'s has never been as important a factor as has been wished, but the number of such jobs is increasing. The drop in university teaching is made up mostly by increases in the percentages employed in private research institutes and government. The statement said it is evident that in the framework of the present period of general employment difficulties the doctoral employment picture is good. Even if it were not, the statement continued, it .\ccompanyin11: the statement were further breakdowns on Ph.D. employment data, and a number of tables givin11:detailed figures on graduates in both Ontario and in Canada in general.

The following article, b_y Norm lal'Oie and Ron Yaschyshyn, was published in the October issue of The Canadian Coach. We are reprinting it here because it is an interesting and informatii·e article and because - coach, professor, housewife, ma,. ager, student, or whatever - it has a direct application to your life. For most of us, emotional stress is a dai(r occurrence. We u·o1Ty ( about the work we do . . . the price ofmeat . . . the state of the world ... young Johnny's toothache). We fume ( about a late appointment ... being held up in traffic . . . increasing t<n-es ... c111 eas,·-to-assemble back n1rd swing set that w'on't go together). ·MJst of us send our nervous systems into high gear regularly - without a corresponding physical conditi.oning programme to offset the ill-effects of emotional stress. This article is about a coach and a basketball game, but, with few changes, it could be about you. .4s Lavoie and Yasch_yshyn s~y: "An_yone for a run." Tntroducti.o n It is a popular concensus that a basketball coach experiences little work stress during a game since the extent of his physical activity is very limited. However, many coaches readily admit that they feel a noticeable degree of fatigue at the conclusion of the game. Since this fatigue is not due to physical exertion, it must then reflect the emotional involvement of the coach. In an effort to examine the nature and the extent of this emotional involvement during an athletic event, Howard Lockhart, "Nor' Wester" Basketball Coach • and lecturer in the School of Physical Education agreed to have his heart rate monitored by a radio telemetry system. The game chosen for this study had a particular significance in that it would determine the Great Plains Athletic Conference Champion. This was Lakehead's first year in the Canadian League and both the team and coach were determined to prove that they were better than their ranking eighth in the nation. Their rivals, the Winnipeg W esmen, had previously split two home games with Lakehead and were also in contention for the title. lleart Rate (HR) is subject to alteration by emotionally induced stressors and seems to be the best measure of the various methods available for the identification of emotional stress. Furthermore, the use of radio telemetry permitted Coach Lockhart to perform his normal coachi~ duties without encumbering h.im and at the same time have his I IR monitored. Method The subject stands six feet and five inches and weighs two hundred and thirtyfive pounds. He is thirty-five years old and has been coaching for thirteen years - three years at Lakehead University. The apparatus used for recording heart rate w~s a Model 368 Biolink Telemetry System devised by Biocom Inc. Two electrode contact points were used; the first placed at _about rthe top of the sternum; the second placed about two inches below the nipple on the left side of the subject's chest. The electrodes were then connected by a small wire lead to a battery operated ECG radio transmitter positioned and clipped on the right front of the subject's belt. The connecting wires were hidden beneath tl1e subject's shirt. The Biolink FM receiver and Cambridge US-4 electrocardiograph recorder were positioned behind the stands and players' bench on the balcony of the gymnasium. A visual commentary and record of the game was also made by a video-tape camera. Anecdotal records were made of the circumstances that accompanied each heart rate recording. Results l.ockhart's resting HR was noted and recorded to be 58 bpm during the afternoon of the game. This figure can be considered as very normal. His HR was ]18 bpm on enteri~ the gym after the warmup. At "tip-off' time his HR rose to 136 bpm. During the next forty minutes of the game, his HR ranged from as high as 180 bpm to 122 bpm. The median I IR response for the first half was 140.70 bpm with the greatest being 167 bpm and the least 125 bpm. The median HR in the second half was 111.25 with the greatest being 180 bpm and the least 122 bpm. As the game came ·10 a· close, the median response dropped greatly to 133.30 bpm (last ten minutes) and 126.50 bpm (last two minutes). A close study of the appurtenant events �t>arly stagt>s of the game until sonwpattern of pla~·, a score or error occurred. suggE>Sts some systematic relationships between heart rate and the elements of the game which affect the score and which are therefore of concern to thecoad1. Fouls, performance, errors, turn-overs and quick breaks seemed to provide the stimuli for the elevation of the heart rate. For example, when a Lakehead player missed a lay-up, the coach's I IH rose from HI bpm to I(> I hpm. The 11 H increased ten beats per minute when the freeshooter was handed tht> hall regardless of which team was shooting. This increase was followrd by a precipitous decrease in 11 R as soon as the free throw shooter lofted the ball. Lockhart's heart rate leaped to 167 bpm when a Winnipeg took a shot from mid-court and scored as the halftime buzzer sounded. Lockhart's heart rate remained high ( 136 bpm) during the intermission but exploded to 180 bpm when the LL. press st·ored on its third steal in succession. This heart rate of 180 bpm reflects that it was recorded with Lockhart in an upright and moving state while involved in moderate physical activity ( he leapt from the bench) and this cannot be compared really to the sitting heart rates durin~ the course of the game. \!though Lockhart's an.x.ieties srt>med to decrease, his stale of excitement increased with each play. On an early play LL'. attempted a fast break and almost turned the ball o,·er as they recoverrd on an out of bounds play. The crowd sremed to lose their breath and Lockhart's I IB shot lo lj0 bpm. Lair in the first half Lockhart seemed to become irritable as his "~or' \Vesters" made costly errors. I Iis 11 B maintained a level of about l ij bpm until one of his better players missed on an easy lay-up. This seemed to be the height of all the previous frustrations as his I IR reached )61 bpm- .\!though he appeared resigned, it was oh\'ious from his 11 R that his emotional upset was so frustrating that he had become regressive. I lis frustration exploded into anger at the buzzer as a Winnipeg shot scored from mid-court. l.ockhart's II H shot to 16 7 bpm as he lept from the bench in a hostile manner to dispute the basket with the referee and the opposing coach. niscussion It was clearly evidenced that coach Lockhart was apprehensive of the evening's outcome. I lis nervousness and I IR heightened as he entered the gymnasium for the warm-up drills. Physical activity may have hren a factor in raising his II B from j8 hpm at rest lo l IB bpm on entrance to the floor. Also the lound cheers and heating of metal drums could have caused a further rise in 12,> bpm. ln anticipation for the game to beµ;in, Lockhart's I IH rose again to 136 bpm _just prior to the tip-off. This anxiety seemed lo continue into the From this point on in tlw game l..l . showed its dominance in pla~· and Lockhart's I lR slowly dropped as his confidence redured his l'molional stress. This relief from lrnsion and strain steadil\' in<'rmsed as Lockhart's 11 B dropped fron1 180 bpm to 12,> bpm, when he deC'ided to put in thr .I unior \ arsity substitutes. \t this point with (> minutes remaining to play in thr gamr, Lockhart's 11 R momentarilv rose to l."iO hpm thus revealing that a new set of amdeties had evolved in his c·onc·rrn for lhe play of his new substitutes. Thesr feelings of nervousness were short livro as his subs rasily matched the already defeated opponen"ts and Lockhart's HH again dropped to 122 bpm during the last se<'onds of the game. This great relief from tension and anxiety was very dramatic in the last portion of the game; however, the earlier events must certainly have had some rffects on the C'oach other than fatigue. Thr winning coach has a release of slrain but what about the losing coach'! As the L. l 1. press continued successfully and Lakehead took command of the game, Lockhart's heart rate steadily decreased until new substitutes (Juniors) took over with about six minutes remaining. Even with these junior players on, his heart rate still decreased to a low of 122 bpm. In an attempt to identify the emotions felt by the coach, the authors can only offer a series of propositions and assumptions as revealrd by the fluctuations in heart rate. ph~ sieal exercist' on this oc·c·asion was ,·igorous. Howard Lockhart Needless to say the emotions exhibited through a seri~s of anxieties, excitement and frustrations created a severe degree of emotional conflict for Lockhart to carry into thr dressing room at the half. • It was evident that the great conflict had forced Lockhart's I IR to remain high ( 136 hpm) during the intermission. The second half hegan with LL'. pressing vigorously. l.ockhart's plan of attack proved to lwighten the excitement of everyone as _ his team gained on \\innipeg. llis I IB slowly rose to 161 bpm as the excitement grew . Lockhart's impatience finally explodt'<I into t>lation as his team conxerted its third steal in suceession for two points. I lis I IB soared to 180 bpm as he flew from his beneh and danced with exaltation for his team's efforts. Once again this elation cannot he the single cause of his incrrased 11 B of 180 hpm, as his The variations in Coach Lockhart's heart rate in this study could be assumed to result from emotional involvement ratlwr than as a result of muscularactivity. This clearly indicates the involvement. of thl' autonomic nervous system; the parasympathetic function to prepare the body to meet conditions of physical and emotional stress by an increased heart rate.

The First Speaker Last Wednesday, January 16th, \Ir. Claude Carton, curator of l.akehead t ·niversity 's herbarium, spoke at l.akehead l niversity and gave an appeal for the prevention of further dama!!:elo two unique miniature ecosystems located in Ouimet and Cavern Lake Canyons, east of Thunder Bay. After outlinin/!: the /!:eological factors which caused the formation of the two canyons, Mr. Carton went on to explain that their physical features /!:ive rise lo a peculiar mirrodimale which in turn favours the growth of certain plant species normally found only on the .·\retie tundra. For example, the vertical walls of the canyons rut off direct sunlight to the canyon floors for much of the day, and talus or rocky debris on the canyon floors arts to dam up water flowing through the canyon. \\'ith theroming of fall, the dammed-up water freezes solid and may remain frozen all throu/!:h next summer, insulated from the heat of the sun's rays by hu!!:e rocks, and by a foot-thick carpet of moss. Thus, during the /!:rowing season, on the canyon floors there is considerably less sunlight, and there are cooler temperatures than normal for this latitude. The result is an approximation of \retie conditions along the canyon floors, and an investigation of the plant species to be found at the bottom of the canyon, says \Ir. Carton, has lent support to the theory that there is a narrow strip of /!:round, runnin!!: along the floor of both canyons, which is, in effec:·t, a miniature tundra. \\ hat makes the plwnomenon so remarkabll' is that it is to be found so far south.

Wilson, a history professor at Lakehead, and· two colleages, Professors Armstrong and Stevenson both from the University of Western Ontario, have combined their talents to edit a "Festschrift". A festschrift, I learned from Dr. Wilson, is a German word meaning " - a collection of works by a group of scholars published as a book in honour of a distinguished scholar". "Aspects of Nineteenth Century Ontario" ( University of Toronto Press, Feb. 1974) is the name of the book published in honour of a man who, in his life, has been a historian, archivist, librarian, teacher and journalist. That man is James J. Talman. When he retired as chief librarian at Western it was decided that a fitting tribute would be a collection of essays, by colleagues, friends and students, on nineteenth-century Ontario. Twenty-one people were asked to contribute essays related to this period becauseJ ames Talman himself had devoted most of his research and writing to the social history of Ontario of that time. Elizabeth Arthur, Chairman of the Lakehead History Department, was asked to contribute an article based on her knowledge of Northwestern Ontario. Even though she does not know James Talman personally, it was felt that her essay would give the book a more meaningful approach to all Ontario. Although the book is considered to bE of interest only in academic circles, I personally recommend it as enjoyable reading for anyone who has even a passing interest in the history of Ontario. The twenty- Winter Carnival The Carnival is over. This year, eve11 though enthusiasm seemed down, some 0 1 it was kept alive by the Engineers and Foresters. With a lot of effort, they built lloate for the Carnival Parade and while the Engineer's Steam Engine rolled off with thE Grand Prize, the Forester's put their treee onto a float and won the Theme Award. The Foresters went a step further and buill a 10 foot Paul Bunyon Ice Sculpture or the balcony of the Holiday Inn. Photos by Hush Renaud one essays, none of which are longer than twenty-five pages, focus on the settlements, urbanization, politics and politicians, culture, education, religion and literature of Dr. Wilson that period. The book, published February 16th, will be available at the library on campus. By Winder �People Awards and Scholarships Associate Biology ·Professor, Dr. Paul Barclay, accepted an invitation to speak at the 1974 Calgary Teachers Conference which was held on February 13 - 15 in Calgary. The topic of Dr. Barclay's speech was Quantity or Quality? - The ~dern Dilemma Dr. Mary B. Black, Visiting Professor in the Department of Anthropology, is chairing the Session of Ethnography of Power and also giving a paper on Ojibwa Power Belief Systems at the Annual Meeting of the American Association for Advancement of Science being held in San Francisco in the latter part of February. Mr. John Coolen, Assistant Professor, school of Engineering, delivered a paper entitled "Calculation of Three Phase Power Line Short Circuit Fault Conditions". Co-authored with Mr. D. Roddy, before the Winter Meeting of the IEEE Power Engineering Society, New York City on February 31, 1974. Dr. Stephen Goldstein, Assistant Pr<;>fessor in the Department of Psychology, recently returned from San Paulo, Brazil where he attended the First Latin American Conference on psychology (Dec. 8-14, 1973). Dr. Goldstein presented a paper entitled Display, Distance and Aggression in Siamese Fighting Fish. M. Alain Nabarra, Lecturer, Department of Languages, has been invited by the Council of the Canadian Association of University Teachers of French, to present a paper at the annual meeting of the Learned Societies (May 27-29, 1974, University of Toronto). M. N abarra's paper, entitled "Marivaux et le style naturel", will deal with Marivaux's stylistic ideas as exposed in his theoretical writings and illustrated in his words. Special emphasis will be put on his early novels which, in the opinion of M. Nabarra have been neglected by most of the critics. Dr. R.C.S. Ripley, Assistant Professor of Philosophy has been granted a Canada Council Leave Fellowship of $4,006 plus $500 for Research expenses for the academic year, 1974-75. He will use his Sabbatical Year, which this Fellowship helps to fund, to engage in research towards the formation of a: new "Theory of Volition" He writes: ~ project is to expand the position sketched in my recent paper "A Theory of Volition" (AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL QUARTERLY forthcoming)into a detailed and consistent thesis. ~ argument is that, contrary to the views of most contemporary philosophers and psychologists, every human action has as a component, an inner consciousactofwbich it is a component". I also suggest that a volition is to be identified with a neurophyslological process, holistically conceived. This is a novel view; the concept of volition is traditionally bound up with mind-body dualism. Dr. R.G. Rosehart of the School of Engineering attended the Ninth Canadian Symposium on Water Pollution Research held on February 7 at the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario. Dr. Rosehart presented a paper entitled "Cyanide Destruction in Mine Waste Water", co-authored by Robert Chu of the School of Engineering. This paper resulted fron, an on-going research project in co-operation with Pamour Porcupine Mlnes Limited of Pamour, Ontario. Dr. Rosehart has also been nominated to serve on the organization executive of a National Institute of Environmental Engineering. THE POULIN AWARD An award for outstanding citizenship presented to the student selected by his fellows, the Faculty and Administration as contributing most to the welfare of the University through his student activities. THE PRESIDENT'S AWARD Awards given annually to the graduating students who have occupied positions of responsibility in the students' organizations and who by their activities and achievements have earned the gratitude of the University. Nomination forms are available from the Dean of Students Office. THE WILLIAM GORDON TAMBLYN TRAVELLING SCHOLARSHIP This scholarship of $500 honours the presidency ( 1965-1972) of William Gordon Tamblyn. It is awarded to a graduating student from any school or faculty in the University whose academic work has been judged superior, and whose plans for using the scholarship show, in the opinion of the Scholarships and Bursaries Committee, a high degree of thoughtfulness and resourcefulness. Special application forms may be obtained from the Dean of Students Office. The deadline date for completed applications is April 30th, 1974. En Franqais For the Cine-Club on February atS:30 p.m., "Dans Le Sillon Des Voyageurs" -presents Jean Renoir's French Can Can. Filmed in 1955, the movie portrays the mad gaiety of the early 20th century in France where anglophone styles and language were very a la mode. The can can derived its name from the french word "canard" as the female dancers supposedly ressembled des canards or ducks. Everybody agrees that the best way to learn a language is to live and think in the milieu where it is constantly spoken. Each year, the Ministry of Colleges and Universities offers Summer Language Programs in french and english at various institutions across Canada. In association with this plan, Lakehead University has its own Summer Immersion Course under the direction of the Continuing Education Department. On March 5, 1974, "Dans Le Sillon des Voyageurs" features a three part program on Immersion Courses. A bilingual film "Cent Fois Sur Le Metier" introduces a few of the difficulties encountered by both professors and students in a language learning situation. Following this is an interview with Dr. Colina, director of the Summer Immersion pro~ram .at Lakehead University and anexperimentin Immersion at Quetico Centre with several students from Fort William Collegiate Institute. On March 10, the Lakehead University French Club presents an evening of French Music with the Lakehead Symphony Orchestra Directed by Douglas Dahlgren, the concert will take place in the Faculty of Education theatre. During the performance, M. Nabarra, professor of French Literature at Lakehead University will comment on the composers and the cultural life in France at the.time of composition and Monitor North a community filming group, will video tape the production for a future viewing on Thunder Bay French Television. Further details will be available in next week's issue. Christian Insights Continues Free Public Lecture, Tuesday, March 5, 1974, 8:30 p.m. in Lower Lecture Theatre: Speaker is Dr. James R. Guthrie. He has chosen as his theme: "Exit from the Labyrinth" because his life-long interest has been in Applied Christianity, and because it appears fitting, at this stage of the course, to focus attention on decision and action rather than on analysis. Dr. Guthrie was educated in his native Scotland and in New York. He moved to Canada two decades ago to establish a degree programme in Christian Education (the chair he now holds) in Victoria University, British Columbia. He is also lecturer in the Psychology of Religions; a former Director of Graduate Studies in Emmanuel; is currently Director. of Studies for the M. R. E. degree; and participates both at the basic and advanced degree levels in the Toronto School of Theology. Brief to CUA In its December brief to the Committee on University Affairs, the Council of Ontario Universities has urged that the value of the basic income unit in 1974-75 be increased to $2,014, up by 10.36% from its current value of $1,825. Increases to the value of the BIU in 1972-73 and 197374 were only 2% and 3.4% respectively. In each of those two years, university salary settlements averaged 7% to 8%. Other sectors in competition with universities for highly-trained manpower awarded salary increases in the same years of 8% to 11 %, Salaries, wages and benefits already account for almost 80% of the operating expenses of universities; the universities simply cannot offer competitive salary increases without a substantial change in the level of financial support. The cost of non-salary items has risen even more sharply, approximately 12% between 1972 and 1973. Libraries will likely face µex.t_ year an additional in- crease of 15% in' the cost of books and periodicals. Over the past two years, inflating costs have forced universities to reduce non-salary and maintenance expenditures even as unit prices have risen. Even strong critics of spending in universities agree that the "fat" has been effectively trimmed from the system by these cost pressures and the small increases to the value of the basic income unit. Universities can qo longer afford to postpone essential maintenance or reduce any further non-salary expenditures. If income continues to be insufficient to meet fixed or essential costs, great damage may be done to the universities. The brief urges the early development of a university cost index, and suggests that a combined index of collective bargaining settlements and wholesale prices for the most recent twelve-month period, properly weighted, be used as a proxy for recent cost increases. �Biology Winter Lecture Series Tim Timmerman We propped them up against the walls, shoehorned them in the door, and by the time the talk was due to start, were considering the feasibility of rigging several bo'sun's chairs from the ceiling to accommodate the overflow. On January 23rd, upwards of one hundred people crowded into a fifty-seat lecture room in the Centennial Building to hear Mr. Timmerman of the Ministry of Natural_ Resources give a talk on "Moose Management in Northwestern Ontario". In the first part of his talk, Mr. Timmerman outlined the biology of the moose, and sketched in the general physiology of the animal, its reproductive and feeding habits, through the year, and the moose's place in the economy of nature. The Chronicle Journal's editionofJanuary 22nd had carried a feature story, the subject of which was also the main theme developed in the second part of Mr. Timmerman's presentation. After viewing the obvious benefitswhichmoosehunting has for the general economy of Northern Ontario (in particular the hospitality industry) and the individual nimrod who goes in search of moose, Mr. Timmerman went on to explain that the notable Increase in the number of hunters in recent years has built up a tremendous pressure on the regional moose population. Thus, in order to ensure the future of the Ontario moose herd, hunting may have to be more closely regulated in coming seasons. In the near future, provincial game-management authorities will have to make a decision about the most practicable longterm goals towards . which moose management should be directed. William Pruitt You can still see an afterglow on the faces of particular faculty members and students in the Biology Department Somewhat over two weeks ago we met a radiator of quiet wisdom and knowledge concerning boreal ecology. Dr. William 0. Pruitt came down from the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg to visit the Lakehead University Biology Department on the 28th of last month. While here Dr. Pruitt went on a field trip to Sibley Park with a party of students and faculty, madepresentations to the Boreal Ecology and Mammalogy classes, gave a public talk on the evening of the 28th, as part of the Biology speakers series, and took his cross-country skis out to Centennial Park to try out what he admitted afterwards was a "formidable" circiut of championship trails. Dr. Pruitt's visit meant several things to the Biology department It gave several people, notably Dr. Ryder and Dr. Lankester, an opportunity to watch Dr. Pruitt at work with his snow kil The cross-section of a winter's fall of snow is rather like a section of rock from the earth's crust; it has strata or layers of varying thicknesses and textures. The essential analogy is that, by examining the layers of snow it is possible ot read the story they have to tell. A scientific examination involves, among other things, the use of thermometers to measure temperature above and below the snow; scales and enclosable scoop with which to examine individual snow crystals from different layers. From the data collected, it is possible to draw a quantitative picture of conditions encountered by the small mammals and insects which are active under the snow, the relative difficulty with whicl). larger animals move about on top of the snow, and the history of weather conditions and snowfall in the winter months immediately prior to the time when the eir amloati011 is made. The instruments from which the data Is taken must give accurate and precise measurements if the data is to have any scientific value. Additionally, the instruments must be rugged in order to stand up to the abuse they will necessarily receive in the field; highly compact for ease of stowing and portage; and relatively easy to manipulate in extreme weather conditions. These criteria dictate that considerable ingenuity is needed in choosing and designing equipment for incorporation into the snow kil Dr. Pruitt, who has travelled and studied in Alaska, Scandanavia, and the Soviet Union, can be modestly considered North America's leading authority on snow kits. Many innovations for snow kitswhichheoriginallysponsored have been copied or pirated for overpriced "imitation" snow kits, oneofwhich the Biology department tried out on aoorovallast winter. Hence Dr. Ryder's and Or. Lankester's interest in Dr. Pruitt's demonstration. There was obvious delight with this plea.sant, gnome-like chap following oneof his classroom presentations: "It all fits! The silhouette and visage of a Santa Claus, and what does he come to talk to us about? Snow!" But underneath the surface was a rare delight: the live opportunity to discuss debate and brainpick with a completely approachable man who waswillingtohear out questions and then talk about them at length in an uncondescending fashion, until the questioner was satisfied. The photos accompanying this article were taken during the field trip by Dave Jones, during the snow Kit demonstration, and a lunch scene at Pickeral Lake. Keith Denis Mr. Keith Denis, a local resident with a long and active interest in the natural history of this area, gave a talk to the Biology · Club on February 4th: his theme was a recountj,ng of the early work done in this area by amateur and professional biologists, geologists and anthropologists. The very earliest work was in the nature of collections arid incidental observations made by comm·e rcial travellers engaged in the fur trade. It was easy to follow, in Mr. Denis' narrative, the signs which indicated, a gradual shift in emphasis froi;p seasonal collecting forays made into this part o{the province by workers from old Ontario, to field research completely planned and carried out from facilities right in Thunder Bay, and the gradual coming-of-age of biological studies in this region. From ·a .ref~e Mr. Deoia made to early jour- nals and logs of the fur trade, it is to be considered that such material is somewhat undervalued as a source ofdatafrom which particular ecological situations and biological cycles of a century and a half ago can be.reconstructed. For local students and faculty in the audience, the hour was a kind of gladhandshaking tour of the past; Mr. Denis larding his text with ad-lib personal remeniscences on local naturalists; to wit, his playful nudge at Claude Garton's talent for finding new species of mosses: "Myself, I think he breeds them!" Dr. William Fuller, chairman of the department of Zoology, University of Alberta Edmon~on, will be taking part in a panel discussion of the energy crisis on the evening of Tuesday, February 26th, at the Royal Edward Hotel. The next evening, Wednesday the 27th, hewillbeon the university campus to give a talk on: "The Secondary Productivity of Lemming Communities on Devon Island"; as the sixth speaker in the Biology Winter Lecture series. The time is 8:00 p.m. in the Lower Lecture Theatre. By Ju4y Petch �Forestry Deans Speak Out On February 5th, the Deans of the six Canadian University Forestry Schools held a press conference in Toronto. Their purpose was to make the public, government and industry aware of the conditions with which they had to work. When Mr. Hearnden, Lakehead University Forestry Chairman, returned from Toronto, he was more than willing to speak to me about the forestry schools and their relationship with industry and government. For some time now in Ontario, it has been the policy that the crown is responsible for silviculture and the regeneration of new forests. This attitude, adopted willingly by industry, is the result of thinking that Canadian forests are limitless. Today, people are finding that is not true. The price of lumber is increasing rapidly viz the rising cost of housing and because suppliers are loath to commit themselves to a "today" price that will almost certainly rise tomorrow, you can't evengetapriceonnewsprint when you order it. There are two main reasons for these increases: the rising cost of bringing lumber tp the mills; and bad planning by industry. Since industry and government have been slow in rebuilding the forest land, the distance lumber must travel to the mills has increased. In the Northwestern Ontario area, that distance is as much as two hundred miles. As a result, labour and transportation costs have risen drastically. In planning, the industry has overreacted to a slight depression which hit.the pulp and paper industry in 1957. At that time they overestimated demand and overhauled their mills at a great expense, only tohave them used for the next five years at about 70% capacity. Therefore, with increased demand, today, a lotoftheirequipment is outdated and mill capacity cannot meet the current needs. Caught short, the woods products industry is belatedly attempting to bring its mills in line with new technology. Mr. Hearnden feels that, with proper management of the forest lands by both industry and government, many of the pressing forestry-related problems could be brought under control. Mr. Hearnden and the five other Deans of Forestry agreed that: (if) Canadians (areto)enjoythemaximum economic, environmental and social advantage from their country's forests and forest lands" then more money must be spent at the University level to increase facilities and faculty for more research and development". Sincetheforestryindustry amounts to about 25% of Canada's foreign exchange, both the federal and provincial governments must be involved fin- ancially. In Ontario, the Hon. A.B.R. Laurence, Provincial Secretary for Resources Development, said he would immediately request a thorough investigation of all provincially-funded projects related to forest industry resources (i.e. research and management). Hopefully, an inter-agency committee would be established with University representatives - to arrive at a i>rmula that would give more support to the Lak&head University and University of Toronto fi:>restry schools. Federally, Madame Sauve also reacted favourably. She directed her assistants to investigate all Federal expenditures in Forestry and related aspects - Le. N.R.C. and Environment and its Canadian Forestry Department - the latter now under a recent Federal Government directive to contract out as much work (research, for example) as possible. In their report, the schools also mentioned the establishment of"Centres of Excellence". But since a lot of money will be spent on these "centres", there is a slight disagreement between the schools and the topic was discussed guardedly with the different ministers. At present there are 1500 students in Forestry degree programs in Canada 225 of them are at LakeheadUniversity. This figure could be increased at Lakehead if it were possible to get more faculty and space. For next year alone, there are already 140 applications. But because of space restrictions, first year will have to be limited to ninety students. Forestry is one of the few schools at Lakehead that has a surplus of students wanting admittance into its first year. Mr. Hearnden would like to see forestry cours·es made available to the public and to other departments on campus. But again, because the department is operating with con't. back page WeyerhaUSe r Lecture Series For the past four years, the Lakehead University School of Forestry has received a non-restrictive grant from Weyerhaeuser Canada Limited. It has been the privilege of the Lakehead University Forestry Association to present the Weyerhaeuser Leeture Series on aspects of National and International forestry for three of these years. In 1970 Mr. Hans Linberg presented five papers on Swedish Forestry, in 1971 two speakers from Canada and two from the United States gave talks on Problems of Park Management in Canada and the United States, in 1973 the topic was Forestry in British Columbia This year we are presenting a series entitled "The Southern Hard Pines of the United States; Silviculture, Management and Land Use Planning.,, We have sched: uled three distinguishe:d speakers for our topic anawefeeltlieircross-sectionofknowledge will insure the success of the 1974 edition of the Weyhaeuser Lecture Series.

Unfortunately he will be unable to present it personally due to illness. We hope that Dr. Earl Stone Jr., Professor of Forest Soils at Cornell University will be present and deliver Mr. Wakeley's paper.

By David Reid 4th Year Forestry �Students to Montreal Seminar Conservation Awarde The White Owl Conservation Award! program exists to encourage Canadiaru working for the benefit of our environ ment. There are two parts to the pre gram: The Awards, to recognize thosewhc have made important contributions tc Canadian eco-systems; and grants to enable groups and individuals to carry oul environment projects. THE AWARDS Each year, the White Owl Conservation Awards Committee presents $10,00( to the group it considers to have made th1 most outstanding contribution to environ mental improvement in Canada. At th1 same time a $2,000 Award is given tc the individual deemed to have achievec the most in this field. REGULATIONS The 1973-74 Chemical Engineering TechnoJogists attended the Annual Canadian Pulp and Paper Seminar recently held in Montreal during January 29 to February 1, 1974. Seen above with the students are Mr. J.C. Jordan, Chairman of the Canadian Pnlp and Paper Associtation and three members of the Engineering Faculty who accompanied the students; many of whom expect to find em- ployment in the Pulp and Paper Industry. This trip has traditionally developed into an annual field trip for the Chemical Engineering Technology students. Of particular significance, this year was the donation of complete airfare for everyone by an annonymous benefactor. This permitted the students to travel in fine style rather than risk driving the icy roads. Merci-beaucoup whoever you are!

Marett, the great Oxford social anthropologist ended his Gifford Lectures, Faith, Hope and Charity ( 1931-32) with a comparison of the often harsh, individualistic, highly competitive Protestant work ethic with the ethic of love often found in what we deign to call "primitive societies". He speaks of "that give-and-take which is so marked a feature of the simpler type of human society. It can ahnost be said to know no other Jaw of property than 'Share and share alike". ( 17 5f). While admitting that the ethic of charity does not make for competitive independence of effort, caring for all alike, he notes "the altogether festive delight with which the same Samoan enters into the communal job of setting up a house or hollowing out a canoe". ( 176) His final evaluation is that the ethic of charity must be rated higher than the ethic of ruthless industrial competition. --In Canada today, we have (amongst many others), two types of ethical attitudes which confront each other, viz that of the native peoples and that of the dominant European settlers. The Eskimo boy preferred to die rather than to eat the flesh of his aunt or his nurse. The pilot Hartwell preferred to be a cannibal and Jive. Whose ethic was the more noble? Who was more civilised? And by what criteria are we to judge? With the North American Indian, as with the Eskimo, there is a radically different ethic from that of the white man. This often, most unjustly, disadvantages the Indian. His regard for truth forbids him to plead "Not-guilty" in a court of Jaw . His loyalty to others bids him be silent, even where silence will be mistakenly taken for consent. His communal ethic often sharply contrasts with the highly individualistic White man's ethic. This often causes individual, social and political problems.

OCUFA Teaching Awards Program The Program was established in 1972 for the purpose of providing more extensive recognition to outstanding teachers in Ontario universities. Up to twenty awards in the form of citations will be made each year. Presentation of the awards will take place this year at the OC UFA Spring Conference, May 10 and 11, 1974, at Carleton University. Successful nominees will be selected by the OCUFA Committee on Teaching Awards. Categories "Teaching", in the context of the QCUFA Awards, need not be narrowly defined. Proficiency in teaching may extend beyond the lecture hall, the seminar room, the laboratory or the faculty member's office. Activities sometimes classified as "administrative services" - e.g. course design, curriculum, development, organization of co-operative teaching programs and other significant forms of leadership are often important contributions to the instructional process; and those who excel in them are eligible for the OC UFA Teaching Awards. Nominations Are invited from individuals or such groups as local faculty associations, faculty or college councils, university committees concerned with teaching and learning, local student councils, alumni, etc. Part-time, as well as full-time, faculty members of Ontario universities are eligible for nominatioIL • Criteria No standard form of submission is required. Sponsors should provide as much evidence in support of the nomination as will make it clear that outstanding work deserving of recognition has been done. How to Proceed Letters of nomination, and as substantial as possible supporting documentation, should be sent to: Dr. S. F. Gallagher, Chairman, OCUFA Committee on Teaching Awards, 40 Sussex Avenue, Toronto M5S 1J7. Deadline for receipt of nominations is MARCH 31, 1974. Ten Little, Nine Little, Eight Little ...

Nursing Faculty Visit Duluth Five faculty members of the Lakehead University School of Nursing visited the Department of Nursing at Scholastica, in Duluth, Minnesota; on January 18, 1974. The visit, arranged under the consortium, Lake Superior Association of Colleges and Universities, served to explore areas where collaboration or exchange may be mutually beneficial. Dialogue centered on audio-visual resources, faculty exchange and plans for advanced nursing programs. The visit was considered extremely productive for both faculties. A very warm reception was extended to visitors from Lakehead University by the Scholastica group. Graduate Studies Enquiry The Canada Council recently announced its decision to set up an independent Commission to enquire into the state of Canadian graduate studies in the humanities and social sciences. The Commission will be headed by Dr. Dennis Healy, Principal and Vic~Chancellor of Bishop's University, Lennoxville, Quebec. Other commissioners will be appointed shortly. The Commission, to be based m Lennoxville, is expected to begin its work in late spring. Its terms of reference will bed~ fined by the Canada Council in consultation with the commissioners, and will be announced later. TheCommissionwillhold public hearings across the coup.try, and its findings will be published by the Council. According to Andre Fortier, Director of the Canada Council, oneofthemany factors prompting this enquiry is the increasing uncertainty as to the purposes, effectiveness and general orientation of graduate studies in the light of present-day needs and conditions. He also referred to the changing attitudes of students towards advanced university education as exemplified in Canada by fluctuations in enrolments at the doctoral level over the past three years. He pointed out that the Council has a direct interest in the Commission's work, since a large part of its budget for the humanities and social sciences is devoted to assisting graduate students.

'74 Forestry Grad Wins Award To Australia Joanne Stupendick, the first wom~n graduate of the Forestry Degree Program at L. C., is going to Australia to study for her Ph.D. When she recieved the letter indicating that she had been chosen for the award she was both pleased and surprised as the award is offered worldwide and open to anyone in any faculty. :\liss Stupendick expects to spend her three years there studying plant physiology and root regeneration although this could change slightly to adapt to conditions in Australia. Miss Stupendick, a native of Thunder Bay, has spent the last year at L. C. as a technical assistant in Forest Culture and Silviculture. She feels very strongly about the regeneration of forests and thinks that the present policy in Ontario is not serving its purpose very well. Although a large percentage of Australian forests are tropical there are some areas with forests similar to those in Canada. Its in these areas that :\Iiss Stupendick hopes to concentrate her research as she plans to return to Canada when she has finished. When Miss Stupendick leaves here in August, in time to catch the Australian summer, she will be a registered forester. Her academic standing here has been excellent with the highest average in her graduating class, an honours first class, and the Dean's Gold :\ledal for the highest mark in silviculture. With such a solid academic background :\Iiss Stupendick will certainly do well in Australia.

Beniskos, a ·professor at the l 'niversity of Ottawa, were invited to present their ideas on adolescents. ,\!though I missed Dr. Bergman's talk I was fortunate enough to hear most of what llr. Beniskos had to say. 1:rom a frequently humorous slant, he spoke about facts and myths that teachers today have, and many people in the past have had, concerning children in their teenage years. In a rather flamboyant manner, Dr. Beniskos talked about the reaction of both parents and teachers to today·s ":\ledia ( ;eneration"" who apparently have adopted a different set of values. ,\t the end of his talk Ilr. lleniskos presented a slide show. produced by some .Junior High and Secondary School students hoping to show that Today·s Youth still has some of the problems, fears, and unanswered questions, that have bothered many generations of young people. l>r. .-\ngus, l>ean of the Faculty of l·:ducation at Lakehead, was the l>inner Speaker at the ,\irlane :\lotor llotel. l>r. .- \ngus spoke on the ",\chievements and .\spirations of Teacher Education at l.akL~ head t ·niversity··. Even though he felt at times that the word "aspirations"" should be replaced by "exasperations··. lie thought that today there were too many "'professional people"" giving solutions to problems in education, who had lost contact with the general public and their ideas on education. This summer at Lakehead l ·niversity, llr. ,\ngus hopes to establish a :\laster of 1•:ducation with the further "aspiration·· of extending this to the Continuing Teacher 1•:ducation programme. He is also quite optimistic that the Faculty will be able to start a programme for training Indian teachers for Indian shcools in l ·011·1.

En Francais On March 12, the Cine-Club presentation for Thunder Bay Television is Reve Clement's Jeux Interdits. Produced in 1952, the movie transports you into the world of a child troubled by war but also by love. A small girl is adopted by country folk after the death of her parents. She meets a young boy and falls in love. Les Sequins If you happened to catch the brilliant performance by this twin brother-sister act you won't want to miss seeing them again. Coming form Quebec, the two siblings dazzled the crowd at Confederation College February 3rd with their "tight" rendition of selkompositions and folklore songs. On March 19 at 8:30 p.m. and again on March 20 at 9:00 p.m., "Dans Le Sillon des Vouageurs" presents a 30' interview with Les Sequins. For the non francophones, the songs they 'do' speak with a universal language. On the same programme, V. Belanger recounts the story "En Raquettes" about a fur trader who makes a historical trek through the woods on snowshoe and Anita Stewart presents "Songs in Class" with the children from Five Mile and Shuniah Schools. The University ofWisconsin Extension Program is offering a Weekend Seminar on April 19th and 20th, at Northland College, Ashland. The theme for this session is "Canada and the. United States: A Case Study in Interdependence". The Seminar is expected to look into the two national economies, the environment and international affairs. Dr. J.D. Wilson, of the Lakehead History Department, will be one of the faculty addressing the seminar. His talk will be on "Historical Relations Between Canada and The United States", emphasizing that friendship between the two has only developed since the early 1920's. It should be noted that it was as recent at 1903, when Canadian and American relations reached a low point over the Alaska Boundary situation. Although Dr. Wilson is going to be the only Canadian speaking at the seminar, it's hoped that some interested Canadians will attend and participate in some of the topics to be discussed. For more information about the seminar contact either Dr. Wilson at the History Department or Michael Winder, Information Office.

The folk singing contest, sponsored by The Secretary of State, is now over. The audition for the representatives (Bob and Carol Bigwood) will be held at 2:00 p.m. on March 5th, Tuesday in the U.C. Theatre. The Secretary of State will be sending James Willia mson here to talk with Bob and Carol and to listen to their songs. As mentioned they have been contracted by CBQ radio and their songs will be broadcast at least on the local level, and hopefully will receive wider coverage as they become exposed. The short period of time for the contest was a definite disadvantage for all of the contestants. The response it evoked however, was encouraging and many of the singers are becoming more involved in other coffee houses off campus as well as on. Everyone involved in the contest put fo rth great efforts, not only in the composing of new songs, but also in meeting schedules and for some, getting used to singing together. I hope they will realize that the actual choosing of the "winners" of the contest was an indication of suitability to the typ e of approach, rather than a grading of the singer's talent.

Dave Irwin and Brian Moore accompanied by six students travelled 2400 miles in eight days to visit a dozen operations from Timmins to Orono and Hanover, Ontario. Industrial visits included sawmills and particleboard plants - right through to molded plywood components, barrels, sporting goods, boats, buggies, fine furniture and pianos. The group was most efficiently organized with a purser, cook, food patrol, and top loader. The majority of meals were prepared in the van (photo) or in the accomodation most kindly provided by the :Ministry of Natural Resources where the group bedrolled it. Was is a success - just talk to the participants or check out the photographs in this year's Forestry yearbook. Japanese Students The Lake Superior Association of College5 and Universities has opened an office in Tokyo, Japan, according to Donald E. Fouts, Executive Director. Mr. Ryuji Hayashi has been appointed Director of the Japan Office. Hayashi is President of Youth Exchange Service, International, a Tokyo-based non-profiteducational organization. Mr. Thomas Nunnelley, an English-language instructor at YES, will serve as Associate Director. "The purpose of the Japan Office," Fouts said, "is to recruit Japanese students for degree programs at the seven Association schools and to develop exchange programs with a 'sister association' of Japanese institutions." The Japan Office will screen, test and interview applicants. "A unique feature of the program," Fouts said, "i., that successful applicants must complete a 5 - or 10 - month preparatory program in English language and cross-cultural studies before they may enroll in an Association institution. A repre5entative of the U.S. office will participate in the final orientation program in Japan and accompany Japanese students to Duluth. The Association will provide special support for Japanese students in the United States, including English -language training and Japanese - speaking counselors. "In addition", Fouts said, "an 'American parent' program will be established to provide personal support and additional learning experiences for the Japanese student." The program will begin with a summer pilot project in July. About 175 Japane5e students will participate in a three-week orientation program on Association campuses to prepare for a summer tour of the United States. Instruction will include an introduction to American language and culture. According to Fouts, a small number of regular students will enroll in the fall of 1974 and the spring of 1975. The first full group of students is expected in September of 1975. Born in Belleville, Ontario, Mr. O'Neill received his early education there and a B.A. degree from St. Michael's College, University of Toronto in 1952. In 1956 he obtained a Licentiate in Theology from Laval University, Quebec and in 1958 a Doctorate in Theology in Rome. Returning to Canada he served as chaplain at the Ontario Psychiatric Hosptial in Brockville until 1964 when he was appointed assistant professor of Systematic Theology at St. Augustine's Seminary in Scarborough, Ontario. In 1971 - 72 he pursued postdoctoral studies at the 1•£ole Biblique et Archeologique de Jerusalem and in 1972-73 did private research at the University of Regenburg in Germany. He ~s now returned to teaching as Professor of Systematics at the Toronto School of Theology. Topic of the lecture will be: "TH J,; SOlJHCES OF CHHISTIAN HOPE TODAY". Even in an age where the death of God seems to have been followed by the death of man, the Christian continues to place his trust in the biblical promise of a final victory over sin and death in the Kingdom of God inaugurated by .Jesus Christ. How this common hope for the eschatological fulfilment of the promise affects the Christian's approach to the problems of the present age will be shown to vary from the cosmic optimism of Teilhard de Chardin through the angry involvement of Jurgen Moltmann to the Job-like protest of Jacques Ellul against the silence of God. Special Rates In the past, special rates had been arranged with the Prince Arthur Hotel for guests of Lakehead University. Dr. Frood recently had occasion to remind the Hotel of this, and in future, they will offer the University their "Corporate Rate."

Miss Sutherland, who received her R.N., B.A and Public Health Certification from Aberdeen University and her training as amid-wife from Edinburgh, has been at Lakehead University for the past 5 1/2 years. During the past academic year, while working on her degree in Social Work, Miss Sutherland became aware that it was possible to take the 3 month placement in her home county of Banf, Scotland. While there she hopes to study how this Social Agency operates and compare their system to ours in Canada. Student Placement Appointment The Computer Centre Administrative Systems Department has a new Systems Analyst, Mr. Jack Rombaut Mr. Rombaut will be mainly responsible for the University's financial computer systems. His extension number is 407. New Assistant Deputy Minister Benson A Wilson has been appointed Assistant Deputy Minister, University Affairs Division, in the Ministry of Colleges and Universities. The appointment was announced recently by the HonourableJames Auld, Minister of Colleges and Universities. Mr. Wilson joins the Ministry from the Provincial Secretariat for Resources Development, where he has been Executive Director for the past two years. Economics Notes F.J. Anderson and N. C. Bonsor have contributed an article entitled "Allocation Congestion and the Valuation of Recreational Resources" to the current (February) issue of Land Economics. The article develops a mathematical treatmentofthepricing problem where access to scarce recreational resources is conditioned by crowding among users and potential environmental damage. F. S. Chen has contributed an article entitled "'Learning byDoing"and the System of Production - Education Mix in China - A Brief Comparison" to the JanuaryFebruary 1974 issue of Economic Affairs, Annual The article summarizes K.J. Arrow's model of "Learning By Doing" based originally on the observation of the pattern of airframe production. Second, it brings to light the similarities and divergencies between this model and the mode of production particularly in the communes of China The problem of the measurement of productivity in the communes has also been briefly mentioned. Final Re bate From Mmday, March 25th until Friday March 29th inclusive, the Lakehead University Bookstore will conduct its final credit-note rebate of 5% of its customers' collected Bookstore receipts. The University's financial position makes it absolutely essential thattheBookstore operate as a fully self-sustaining enterprise, without subsidy from University funds. Unfortunately, the decrease in student enrolment and the steadily increasing freight-rates have had a serious effect on the Bookstore's financial status, to the extent that the 5% rebate marks the difference between a losing and a breakeven operation. Even though many college stores have adopted the practice of adding the freight costs to the price of textbooks (thus adding substantially to the cost of these already expensive necessities), we at the L. U. Bookstore feel that the alternative of discontinuing the rebate would better serve the University community as a whole, since only about one-third of the students appear to be taking advantage of the rebate-scheme at the present time. Please note that ALL credit-vouchers issued during the 1973-74 term MUST be used BEFORE April 30th 1974, theend of the financial year. KJ. Charles contributed an article on "The Marxist Model of Lenin" in the Journal of Social and Economic Studies issue of September 1973.

Dr. Robert Ross, Dean of the Faculty of Science, said that this year's total grants represent a five percent increase over those received last year: "That total is much more impressive when you consider that NRC 's overall budget did not increase while the number of requests for grants from scientists across Canada did increase dramatically. I'm extremely proud of the group of scientists we have here at Lakehead. They are a highly qualified group as is borne out by the quality and quantity of their research and the high regard in which they are held by their fellow scientists and, of course, the NRC ".

Economics Notes The Spring issue of The Logistics and Transportation Review contains an article by Norman C. Bonsor of the Department of Economics entitled "An Optimal Pricing Strategy for Scheduled Air Carriers Over the North Atlantic". Direct and indirect operating cost functions are derived and it is shown that the current regulatory structure is sub-optimal and incosequenceleads to a misallocation of resources. Optimal prices for resourceallocationarecompared to the existing price level. The latest issue of The Lakehead University Review (Volume VI-Fall-Winter 1973) contains a paper by Chris Jecchinis on "Technological Change and Socio-Economic Development in North America: Problems and Prospects". Dr. Jecchinis argues that it is nottechnological change and automation that creat acute social and enviornmental problems but the uncontrolled technological change and unbalanced growth which pose a serious threat to the social and economic development of Canada and the United States. He maintains that these problems have become too great and too complex for industry and organized labour to solve alone, and that they require the introduction of non-conventional policies and the coordinated efforts of all interested parties under thedirectionandcontrol of the government. In the same issue of the L. U. Review, G. C. Ruggeri has written a review article on the Economic Council of Canada's Ninth Annual Review: The Years to 1980.

At university, student nurses are usingvideotapetoimprove their method of diagnosis, taking courses in philosophy and going to remote nursing stations to experience health care in a different environment. In practice, nurses are beginning to leave the confines of the hospital to work in Community Health Centres; they are making better use of computers and are helping to relieve the doctors of some of their more repetitive and time-consuming tasks. This article will attempt to show how the education of a nurse today is preparing her for some of the new concepts in the nursing profession. In the medical profession today it is generally felt that the nurse can better serve the community by working in the community rather than in the hospital. One of the first steps in this direction would be the licensing of all nurses, a move which would give them the flexibility to break away from the structure that has to exist in a hospital. With this freedom, more nurses will be going to Community Health Centres where, in a decade or so, about eighty percent of all practicing nurses will find themselves. The Hastings Reports, which supports this concept of Community Health Centres, defines them as" ... an organization and service concept and a financial and administrative integration ofresources to help people to deal humanly and rationally with one another, both receiving and providing health services. It recognizes and gives form to the dynamic interaction necessary between the helper and the helped. It promotes personal and community responsibility." What this means to the patient is that in future instead of becoming accustomed to the "Family Doctor" making the routine check-up in a hospital, he will become accustomed to the "Family Nurse" visiting him in his home. Nurses will do this when people are sick but more importantly ti,_ey will do it when people are not sick. These visits will be part of a preventative health care pro- leges and Universities. The firstlevel would be the R. N. A. The men and women who will be ~- N: A. 's will ~most exclusively be workmg m the hospital environment. They will be working along side the nurses from the Community Colleges. These nurses will also be working in the hospital situation. The third level will be the University graduate. This nurse will not only have the technical skill but, also, the broader understanding of people which will make her better suited for work in the Community. The type of education that a nurse or _nur_sing assistant receives is important as 11 will govern, lo a large degree, whether or not that person will work in the hospital or in the Community. It is obvious then that if there are to be ch~nges in the nursing profession, the educational programmes must also make changes. Traditionally, nurses were trained in a 3 year programme,closely affiliated to a hospital and heavily subsidized by the government. Since 1965, this form of education has been phased out and replaced with c:: a 2 year course under the direction of the r.. Community Colleges. To achieve the goals P of the nursing future however, the emphasis Z must shift from the 2 year level to the bac:§: calaureate level where students are taught more than just thebasicstandards required for registration as a nurse. As most people are award of the capabilities of graduates from the 2 year programme, a close look at the Lakehead UniversitySchoolofNursing will enable one to see the means of achieving some of the aims of nursing.

To help in their understanding ofnormalchild behaviour, the nurses must prepare a critique on what they saw and present it to their classmates. Change will play a large part in the career of a nurse today, so the nurse must be prepared to accept it as a natural phenomenon. As part of that preparation at Lakehead University, the student will see the teacher in a different role. Besides the usual routine of seminars and lectures, on basic data, the teacher's main role will become that of a resource person and advisor. The student will be left mostly on her own. This type of learning encourages new ideas and means of practising and teaching nursing. With this sense of responsibility placed on the student early in her nursing education, she will be better able to develop or adapt to new ideas. An important role for the teacher today is the importance of making courses interesting. If properly motivated, students will be encouraged to look further into a topic and hence benefit themselves for the future. To inspire this ambition at Lakehead University, a number of community-oriented courses are made available to the student. A family study course is offered in which a student follows a mother in her last month of pregnancy and after the birth. She also interacts with the mother of an The "new nurse" will be one who is prepared, at the University Level, to work as a member of a health team, working closely with families in sickness and in health, moving freely between the hospital and the community.

She will b-e familiar with new technological advances that will increase her capabilities but she will not sacrifice her personal contact with the patient in the face of this advancing technology.InherdayMiss Nightingale's conception of a nurse was considered "visionary and beyond all hope of realization".

This thesis contains the results of Mr. McLeod's biographical research on 89 Canadian prairie novelists and bibliographical research on 185 Canadian prairie novels.Immediately before coming to Lakehead University, Mr. McLeod was Chairman of the English Department at St. John 's-Ravenscourt School in Winnipeg and also lectured at the University of Manitoba in Canadian Literature. In 1971 he was Visiting Professor of Canadian Literature at the University of Marburg, Germany. Mr. McLeod was born in Sault Ste. Marie and received his early education in that city.

Element In The Prairie Novels Of Freder~ G Several weeks ago Dr. Angus, Dean of the Faculty of Education, met with representatives from a number of local bands. Dr. Angus set the meeting up to look into the criteria for organizing an Indian Teacher Education Programme. Some of the representatives were Cecil Finlayson from Long Lac, Raymond Ningewance from Lac Seu!, Shiela and Roy Michano from Heron Bay and Terry Perrault from Fort Frances. One of the prime objectives of this first meeting was to find a suitable candidate to be the planning specialist. Roy Michano felt that this person should be a local Indian who could speak fluently in the native tongue. Once chosen this person would start immediately to investigate the problems of education for the native peoples. He would talk to the officials at the reservations, the high school teachers and councilors and most importantly the parents and children. Eventually he would piece together a report on his findings and make recommendations to the advisorycommittee. One point that Roy Michano would like to see implemented is the construction of an all-Indian High School with Indian Teachers and Councilors. He felt that this situation would put Indian children at ease and not make them feel ashamed of their cultural background. Both Dr. Angus and the Indian representatives said that they were gratefultothe Donner Foundation for sponsoring this project and that they were very optomistic in being able to achieve the aspirations of many of the Indians in North-Western Ontario. �N.C.R.

Linsay, Chairman of the Lakehead University Biology Departments in other Canadian Universities met in Ottawa on March 21st to 24th and expressed their concern that the quality of teaching and graduate education in their departments is being threatened by increased enrolment and inadequate financial support. During the last six years, total university enrolment in Canada increased by 30 percent, while enrolment in Biology has increased by about 140 percent. The increasing interest in Biology by Canadian students has shown little sign of diminishing. Even during recent years, when university enrolment leveled off in the physical sciences and humanities, interest in Biology continued unabated. Universities across Canada had nearly the same total enrolment in 1971-72 and 1972-73, but in the latter year Biology enrolment still increased by 9 percent. Now, nearly onethird of all students entering Canadian colleges and universities take at least one course in the Biological Sciences. Increasing enrolment in Biology has brought about a crisis in the teaching of Biology at the university level. Numerous solutions are being sought in order to accommodate large classes at a time of rising costs, stabilized numbers of staff, and economizing by the provinces. In spite of the use of modern teaching techniques and the elimination of financial waste, Biology Chairmen expressed concern that these pressures will lead to the overall deterioration of the quality of Biology teaching in Canada, and thatthiswill have an immediate and negative effect on the quality of life of Canadians. Biology is the cornerstone of many applied sciences that require extensive biological training, such as agriculture, medicine, dentistry and other health care programmes.

It starts with very intuitve reasoning, and many examples, to lead the student toward a general, formal, mathematical treatment by synthesizing his observations about the special cases. The teaching method is Socratic, or the asking of leading questions, to cause the student to progress from simple to more complex constructions and, hopefully, to a final general case. The precise topics of the course are not as important as the method the students are encouraged to develop, and topics change each time the course is given. A sampling of this year's topics are; Boolean Algebra, which underlies set theory and the design of computer circuits; Computability, which has applications bothtocomputing machines and abstract mathematics; Nearness Geometry, which replaces traditional ideas of limits and continuity in the calculus; and Probability, which is the mathematical science behind statistics, the treatment of experimental data from any field of science or social science. University Bookstore Used Book Buy-Back As in previous years, the Lakehead University Bookstore will hold a Textbook Buy-Back starting April 16th. Any textbooks in good and re-usable condition (except those going into new editions) which are on the list of texts to be used again in the 1974-75 academic year will be bought back at 50% of the original cost to the owner. This usually means 50% of the publisher's price, butincaseofbooks which were purchased as Used Books, it is 50~.. of the Used Book price paid by the student. This is an opportunity to turn textbooks you no longer require into cash! Arrangements have been made with the Follett College Book Co. to come on campus on April 24th and 25th to buy back many other texts which will NOT be used again on campus next year, although the prices paid will generally be lower than the 50% paid by the L. U. Bookstore. All books bought by the Follet Co. willbeshippedoffcampus, whilethebooksboughtbytheL. U.
