LAKEHEAD TECHNICAL INSTITUTE YEAR BOOK Students f Admuatiisiatiue Council DONALD SALO, President PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE What is the Lakehead Technical Institute? This question has been asked many times during the last three years. It is our hope that this Year Book, the second published by the students of L.T.I., will adequately answer this question and will also help to create the public interest which is necessary for the successful growth of a young school. What does the future hold for the Lakehead Technical Institute? Plans have been completed to convert the Institute into a recognized junior universi ty which will be known as the Lakehead College of Arts and Sciences. This new school will be housed in a modern building and situated on property close to both Lakehead cities. The social activities of our school year have been both pleasant and memorable and have been made successful by the enthusiastic participation of the students and instructors; and for this, our deepest thanks. We would also like to express our thanks to Dr. Bartley and to Mr. Braun, whose advice and guidance has greatly contributed to the success of our Students ' Administrative Council. In a small school such as ours, neither the social events nor the athletic activities can be successful without the assistance of each individual student. It is this school spirit and enthusiastic support of all the students which has made this year at the Lakehead Technical Institute one which we will long cherish and remember. The administration of our Students ' Council is a good example of that same representative government which is the greatest attribute of our democratic way of life. May our school continue to thrive and expand with that constant public interest and support, which is the strength of the democracy in which we live. DONALD SALO.

LAKEHEAD TECHNICAL INSTITUTE YEAR BOOK DR. M. W. BARTLEY, Principal TO THE GRADUATES: I am privileged to extend to the graduating class good wishes and high hopes lor all. You are now going out into the wider circle of society and we look to you to bring to an unsettled world same of those qualities of vigour and enthusiasm which have marked your days here. Honest scholarship should have trained you to faring to bear on all situations in life impartiality, integrity, moral courage and perspective. Your many interests and activities should have given to you an appreciation of values and a desire for gracious living. The world sorely needs these qualities and gifts. As you leave the Institute, you assume a twofold responsibility — to your parents and to the Institute. The years will tell whether you are worthy of the sacrifices that have been made for you by your parents and those interested in your career. You are a representative of the Lakehead Technical Institute; the reputation which you establish may well determine the reception given future graduates by potential employers, or other centres otf learning. Some of you are graduating into the world of industry; others are hesitating before continuing up the steps leading to a university degree. For the first, the preparation is over and there now comes the test otf its adequacy. For the second group, the initial hurdle has been surmounted, but further obstacles lie ahead. The public is little impressed with anyone because he is a graduate of a particular institution, or a member of this or that association. It rates him according to his own merits and ambitions. In very truth the future rests in his own hands. We of the staff shall watch your progress and development With keen interest, hoping always that you will remember that a formal education is comparable to a bunch of keys, of value only as it is used to unlock the doors to opportunities and satisfaction in life. M. W. BARTLEY, Principal. 3
