Lakehead University Forestry Association - Yearbook (Thunder Bay, Ontario Canada)

Text from Pages 1 - 72 of the 1978 volume:

276800 THE PAUL BUNYAN STORY Each year, this book is dedicated to a particular person or idea that seems to symbolize forestry. Past holders of this honour have been the likes of Smokey the bear, the universal symbol of forest protection and safety. This year ' s figure has been the other major symbol of forestry to young people for many years, that person being Paul Bunyan. This legendary figure has amused countless persons with his adventures. Spread throughout the book are segments of the story of Paul Bunyan, and his many adventures. It is to be hoped that in reading these excerpts from his life story that you can perhaps forget the factual part of forestry, and le your imagination take over. It sure beats reading most textbooks! Tricky Rick Durand Paul Bunyan...er. Adkin. Disco Mike Millard Sheri ($) Walsh Nat Goudreau The 1978 graduate. The faces and the books change. But graduates always have a lot in common. Idealism. A healthy scepticism about the way things have always been. And the drive to make them better. If he ' s from Lakehead University he has a good start. And since he ' s chosen forestry, he ' s already concerned with the relationship of all living things with one another. If anybody has the ability to make a difference, it ' s him. And people like him. Good luck. ABITIBI PAPER COMPANY LTD. THUNDER BAY, ONT. PATRONS kbm FORESTRY CONSULTANTS 1 e .

THE PAUL BUNYAN STORY YOUTH It seems that every story has to start out with a baby picture, and this one is no exception. But Paul Bunyan was no ordinary baby. He was born in the State of Maine, and was like no other baby they had ever seen. His father, after breaking his back trying to rock a house-sized cradle, built a cradle in the shape of a boat, and let the sea do the rock- ing for him. This was a good idea until the young Paul started having fun rocking and bouncing in his cradle. It has been said that nearly one half the Eastern seaboard was flooded out as a result of this playtime frolicking. The photo on the left is sort of a family portrait of the Bunyan family. On the right is Paul, and down below and to the left is his father. Paul ' s youth was a happy one. His father was thankful for this, as spanking the large Paul would have been hazardous to say the least. As soon as he was old enough he joined his father cutting timber in the Maine area. It was in this time that the young Paul learned the trade of logging. He learned his trade well, cutting most of the State of Maine during his youth. Stacks up!

IN NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO Lakehead IB University WEYERHAEUSER The 1977-78 Weyerhaeuser Committee was pleased to present two knowledgeable guest speakers on November 25, 1977 to discuss the Sharing of Responsibility for Regeneration in Ontario. Mr. A. Herridge, Asssitant Deputy Minister of Ontario ' s Ministry of Natural Resources, presented his paper titled A History of Reforestation in Ontario followed by a presentation by Mr. R. Loughlan, Manager of the Ontario Forest Industries Association. Mr. Loughlan ' s paper dealt with the Implications of the OFIA Reforestation BrieP ' . The discussion which ensued afterwards was enjoyed by the large crowd on hand as both speakers fielded questions from members of the audience. The theme of this year ' s Lecture Series was very appropriate at a time when the provincial government is seriously considering major changes in its forestry statutes. WE MUST BE LIKE THE PINE TREES THAT ARE STRONG IN WINTER. WE MUST BE STRONG IN SPITE OF THE TRIALS AND TEMPTATIONS OF LIFE. CONFUCIUS THE PAUL BUNYAN STORY It was in Paul ' s 25th year that he found Babe, the blue oxe. The winter was especially bad that year. Men spoke over campfires to thaw their words that froze as soon as they spoke them. One day while col- lecting firewood, Paul spotted a small baby ox frozen blue with the cold. Taking it back to the camp, Paul nursed the ox back to health, and decided to keep it as a pet. Like Paul in his early years, the ox grew quite rapidly. It soon outgrew the barn Paul made for it, making it almost as large as Paul himself. From that moment forward, Babe the blue ox was Paul ' s inseparable companion, and workhorse for the lumber camp. Soon after finding Babe, Paul had the idea to go out on his own, and start his own lumber camp. He took some of his father ' s men, and proceeded to build the largest lumber camp in the world. In order to save space, he built the bunkhouses to be stacked one on top of the other, creating the first high-rise living complex. Their dining hall was something to see too, one single table six miles long. The cook was always complaining that by the time his men finished serving lunch, it would be time for dinner. It was so big that to go from one end of the camp to the other, you needed to take a week ' s supply of food. GRADUATES B. SC. GRADUATES On the following pages, you will see the graduates of both BSc and Forestry Technology programs. They have worked for four or two years respectively, completing assignments, attending lectures, and generally putting up with all the hassles of a university education. And having succeeded in their task, they now go on to a career in Forestry, if the jobs are available. Congratulations, you ' ve made it! LEFT TO RIGHT: Prof. H.

These students were here for two years, learning the basics of Forestry, unlike their counterparts the Degreers, who are here for four years. The Teachers have had the same problems as any other student, the 8:30 a.m. class on the Monday morning blues, the Mens, or Management or photo allnighters to get them done, and the usual exam problems.

Little. Native BEERS of Canada mk by G. Y. Jolly THE CARLINGS The family is characterized by such features as a Copenhagen Brew- master, wishing Canadians Cheers , while riding a wagon pulled by draught horses. Other identification includes the key phrase Mabel, Black Label or a group of Irish Singers singing Off to Dublin in the Green in the Abbey Tavern. Once a major commercial species in Canada and abroad, it has dwindled over the years, mainly due to the invasion of the Blue Blister Rust and the Molson Miner, two of its strongest enemies. However, this species is still commercially important in certain areas. THE LABATTS This is a wide spreading family, that tends to hybridize very easily. Among the hybrids, a certain baseball team, and a large blue balloon seem to come to mind. This species has a good ad- vertising form, offering the public very attractive ornamental qualities. It also tends to reproduce by layering, and produces a phytotoxin harmful to other beers. THE DORANS The study of the native beers of Canada would not be com- plete without including the Kakabeka Cream Lager. THE MOLSONS There are several members of this family represented in Ontario. Identifica- tion is simple. Anything that looks like a squashed stop sign on the label has to be a Molson product. One special form of this family is introduced every year around Woodsmans competition time, that being the rare and refreshing Brador.

MENZEL DEG I THE PAUL BIJNYAN STORY After many years of adventuring Paul had collected quite a few pictures. These are dis- played on this page. After building a lumber camp larger than the first record setting camp; finding a dog one day, feeding it and having it grow into an animal the size of Babe; missing with his axe and creating Old faithful; and finally taking care of all the largest logging jobs in the country, Paul decided to retire. He went off into the mountains, and spent the rest of his life just having fun. To commemorate the life of Paul, the residents of Bemidji, Minn., erected a statue of Paul with Babe, and they can be seen to this day.
