O INO VANDALISM CONTINUES DESPITE WARNINGS Over the past few weeks, despite continued pleas through the NEWS, we have continued to have damag¢ done to many of our community facilities. Since our appeal for assistance has apparently been disregarded, we now issue a warning to anyone marring or damag- ing our facilities or equipment, that offenders will be prosecuted by law. It appears that this is the only way that we can keep broken bottles out of the swim- ming pool and play areas, marks off the walls of buildings, and protect our facilities. If you see anyone damaging public or private pro- perty, report them at once. It is YOUR community that you are protecting. SWIMMING POOL OPENING Plans for the swimming pool opening will depend on weather, but enthusiasts are assured that swimming will commence as early in June as possible. FASTBALL SEASON OPENS The Terrace Bay Fastball season continues this week with all teams scheduled. Games this season are scheduled for Monday and Wednesday evenings at 6 P.M. with any rained-out games being played on Thursday. In last week's only game KENMACS Juniors defeated OSMARS by a lop=sided 16 to 2 score. However, OSMARS were short-handed for this opening game and is expected to be a strong con- tender in future games. Contest this week has OSMARS at MOOSE on Mon-' day night and KENMACS at COSTAS on Wednesday . LAKEHEAD COLLEGE (from column 2) - and in turn in interpreting the actions of the University to the public at large. An Extension Committee has been formed. Its first job will be to obtain an interim director who will start work on a co-ordinated ex- tension programme for future years. A director of the 1964 Summer School has been ap- pointed & the Men's Residence will be open for stu- dents from outside the Lakehead. Six first-year, threg second-year & two third-year courses are offered. The Board of Governors also passed a motion assuring the Faculty that the principle of academic freedom was supported by the Board and the Administr ation. The principle of academic freedom goes to the heart of the concept of a university, as without it, the pursuit of truth would be hampered. Students entering Lakehead College in the fall of 1964 should consult with the Dean of Arts on the tea SHORE JUNIOR HOCKEY A North Shore Junior Hockey League has been formed and will operate next season. The league will consist of teams from Geraldton, Nipigon-Red Rock, Schreiber-Terrace Bay and Marathon. Al- though definite plans are not yet finalized, it would appear that an all-star team from the league may be able to challenge into the Lakehead Junior Playoffs. The Schreiber-Terrace Bay team will be run under the sponsorship of a joint board of directors which has yet to be formed. In an effort to form an ex- ecutive consisting of representatives from both towns team officials have asked for the names of any people in Terrace Bay who might be interested in acting on such a board. Any interested parties are asked to contact F. Eickmeier of Schreiber or the Recreation Office in Terrace Bay. THE GUN CLUB WILL MEET ON THURSDAY AT 7 P.M. IN THE SMALL MEETING ROOM OF THE RECREATION CENTRE. LAKEHEAD COLLEGE NEWS RELEASE Far-reaching decisions were made by the Board of Governors recently when it was decided that Hon- ours Degrees for students entering Lakehead College in the fall of 1964 would be offered. This means that students who heretofore had only been able to take one year of an Honours programme at Lakehead College would now be able to stay for the complete four-year Honours programme at Lakehead Univer- sity. This should attract more and better students. It will also give many high school teachers the op- portunity of obtaining an Interim Type (A) Certificate through further study thus making them eligible for a permanent high school specialist's certificate. Up to the present time, high school teachers wishing to "upgrade" their degree had to travel to S. Ont. to take the required Honours courses. The establishment of a University Senate has been approved by the Board of Governors, which will be responsible for the educational policy of the Univ- ersity, subject to the financial approval of the Bd. It will be composed of the Principal, the deans, the full professors of all the faculties, the registrar, the librarian, the director of extension, such chairmen of departments of instruction as are not included in the foregoing list, and two members elected by mem bers of the academic staff of the University as a whole. It is possible that in addition jto the Senate a University Council may be established in the not- too-distant future which could include rep. from the secondary schools, the alumni, labour, etc. and would play an important role in making recommend- ations to the Bd. and Senate, (cont'd bottom col. 1
