'It is listed under the code name of P.E.O.P.L.E. This project is one of the Ontario Ministry of Education's summer projects. These projects are operated in con- junction with the Ministry of Education, Ontar -io Youth Secretariat, and local school boards The program is designed to provide students with an opportunity to explore part of Ontar- io's past. This will be done from a geograph- ical, historical and archaelogical point of view. Information will take the form of pic- tures, tapes, maps and booklets. Copies of these will be made available to the local schools for classroom use. Our project will deal mainly with the Jack- fish town, Empress mine area and with smaller studies on other less significant places such as the Indian pictograms and mounds. The project will be co-ordinated by Greg Hill from Thunder Bay.

MAZZONE, ADMINISTRATOR 825-3695 It may seem a little hot and muggy these days to be talking hockey, but it's so humid around here one has to write about winter spor- ts - at least it reminds you that it sometimes gets a little cooler than 80 or 90 degrees. Besides, the way the World Hockey Associa- tion and the National Hockey League are making the headlines these days, it's hard to keep - them out of print. And one more thing, in another I% months or two, hockey teams will already be at training camps. The fact that Canadian Health Minister Marc Lalonde has stuck his nose into the NHL-WHA war is indication that the worst is yet to come in what should be a bitter confrontation. Lalonde has declared that the pros would not be allowed to violate the present drafting age limit of 20. Lalonde didn't explain his move. He simply raised a flag. His comment came shortly after Gordie Howe's two sons, Mark and Marty, had signed a super contract with Houston Aeros of the WHA. Poppa Gordie, as you know, followed his two sons a couple of weeks later, severing his 27-year ties with Detroit Red Wings and signing a five-year contract worth better than $I million with the Texas team. Health Minister Lalonde raised the warning flag when he insinuated that pro teams wouldn't be allowed to tamper with players under 20 - a rule drafted up between the NHL and the CAHA some years ago. But since when does the federal government have a say in what pro sports teams can do? Let's face it, the government might be able to raise or lower the drinking age, but it certain ~-ly has no right to tell a group of profession- als what it can or can't do. But then again, many feel the WHA won't be around long enough to hurt the NHL. continued page 6 .... REMBER FURNITURE WAREHOUSE I20I W.Walsh Street Thunder Bay,Ont.
