Our yearly tradition, Known as ‘Orientation’, Promised many surprises, And vast speculation . Those who attended, Kept the spirit alive, It seemed such a waste, though, That so few survived. Historically, it is said, That at this time of year, The entire downtown campus, Has good reason to fear. A sea of yellow hardhats, Flooded the street, The Flrosh congregation, Marched in the heat. Across King’s College Circle, They charted their course, Headed by Lady Godiva, Scantily clad on her horse. Their goal was U.C., A modern day ruins, As they envisioned women, Drenched with water balloons. This caper was needed, To vent off their steam, As they left the battlefield, With its own indoor stream. Aside from their mischief, Some good deeds were done, Including Hart House Farm, Shinerama, And some ‘nurse-wetting’ fun. Orientation ‘80, Obeyed the golden rule, The Flrosh displayed unanimously, That incredible SPIRIT OF SKULE.

Camera! Action! And with a swirl of a lisp of fog, courtesy of solid carbon dioxide, an explosion from yet another flashpot and in the next-in-the-endless line of curses from the harried key grip, the curtain rose (or more correctly, pulled apart) on another theatrical extravaganza. SKULE NITE 8T1, this year’s version of the University of Toronto’s Engineering Society annual musical-comedy revue was performed before a sold-out house at Hart House Theatre on February 4,5,6, and 7. One could not but stop to wonder at the amazingly youthful enthusiasm of the small (27) but imaginative cast as they offered a plethora of perfectly put puns at every given opprotunity. From the easily recognizable opening theme to the particularly unique interpretation of ‘The Wizard of Oz’, SKULE NITE 8T1 served up a feast of delicious skits and songs and what proved to be a panacea for the February humdrums. The engineers have always found difficulty in respecting sacred cows, and as such, children’s programming, cartoons, Robert Service, sexual tests, Nashville and temperence were given no mercy. ‘You’re Still An Engineer’ was performed wonderfully by Gail Hakala and Martin Scott, as the engineer bemoaned his fate in the face of prejudice and stereotyping. Wayne Levin, as the consummate Toto and as a well-dressed bandelero, displayed a professionally responsive acting style that is so seldom seen in similar campus productions. Gary Silberg, a newcomer to SKULE NITE, gave notice to his arrival with many good characterizations, including a cameo role as ‘The Wizard of Oz’ himself. The ‘Wizard’ and Ella Lund-Thompson as Dorothy Gale contributed to the most relaxed and enjoyable repartee of the show. Originally performed as a thirteen-act revue called ‘NGYNRS in SPaSms’ at Massey Hall in 1921, SKULE NITE has evolved through several transformations to its present form; a two-hour revue consisting of 20 to 40 individual ‘sketches’ of varying content and social importance (if any) to appeal to all tastes (even Dean Slemon?!). The list of theatrical madness goes on and on. Everyone had their favourite and least favourite sketches, that’s showbiz, but everyone had fun (even Dean Slemon). Jan Piekoszewski, Director, and Nancy Brown, Producer, are to be congratulated on, once again, reaffirming SKULE NITE’s tradition as the most entertaining and successful musical-comedy revues on campus. MEN IN ENGINEERING Everyday a Procor Unit Train hauls a good part of a mountain from Cadomin to Edmonton, Everyday, other Procor Unit Trains arc moving enor- mous quantities of sulphur, coal, fuel oil and sulphuric acid, all across the country. The Procor Unit Train is the simplest, most effi- cient way to move large quantities of raw materials. The train is designed to carry a specific cargo-and it carries no other. The train is routed from Point A to Point B at specific times and there are no delays or shuntings onto sidings. The train is yours- exclusively, and is as big or as small as you require. Working in conjunction with the railway concerned, Procor designs the train as well as the loading and unloading facilities. We even build the train and maintain the train over its operating life. All this to assure you of the smoothest operation at the lowest possible cost per ton milc. You can cither lease the system from Procor or subcontract the entire trans- portation problem to us on a per ton moved basis. Then, you can concentrate on what you know best, mining-and and we can concentrate on what we know best-transportation. When you ' ve located the mother lode andyou knowyou ' rc going to have to move it, talk to us. Call Gordon Mills, the head of our Rail Car Division, at (416) 362-2641. We ' ve had a lot of experience moving mountains. 22 RAIL CAR DIVISION. 2001 Speers Road.

Unknown at the season’s start, they became known as the “terrifying titans of Tanzania” to their fans, and the “violent villains of volleyball” to their victims, while roaring to a 7-1 regular season record. Next year, the Tanzanians will return to erase the memory of their narrow defeat.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION Speakers and financial support for Career Nights. The new U. of T. Engineering Hall of Distinction. ENG. SOC. From its simple start as a society formed to allow the exchange of technical information, the Engineering Society has become the focal point of Skule spirit. The first formal engineering society was formed in 1884 with the intent of encouraging, preserving and distributing the results of oringinal research. The society would also cultivate a spirit of mutual co-operation in preparation for the profession of engineering and allow a channel of communication between the engineering student body and the Faculty Council. These goals were outlined in the society’s first constitution in 1885. At first, the society’s activities consisted of member presenting papers at fortnightly meetings. From 1885 on the papers were published in pamphlet form and exchange! with other technical societies. This formed the rav beginnings of the engineering library and its offshoot, th engineering stores. The annual compilation of papers presented before th( society became published under the title The Transaction; of the Engineering Society’. In 1907, this led to a monthlv journal entitled ‘Applied Science’ which was a technica publication containing the editorial and advertising element; of a professional newspaper. About four years later, the ‘Toike Oike’ started publication. This new paper wa; dedicated to the publication of technical articles as well a; humourous articles and poetry written by engineers. Botf ‘Applied Science’ and the ‘Toike Oike’ were discontinuec when WWI broke out. The publications were revived afte the war with ' Applied Science’ reverting back to the annue ‘Transactions and Yearbook’ format. The ‘Toike Oike stopped technical publications completely and concentrated on printing humourous articles and reporting extracurricular student events. The ‘Transaction and Yearbook’ was the predecessor of the modern yearbook dealing almost exclusively with student activities. The original purpose of ‘Applied Science’ as a monthly technical journal is being carried on by ‘the CANNON’. The engineers’ pranks and high spirits have existed from the origin of the faculty. These have shown up in the formation of the LGMB after WWII, the modern BFC and in the mighty symbol of Skule, the Cannon. These organizations have their own rich and colourful histories. As the Engineering Society became formally involved in the academic affairs of the Faculty, it required a more organinzed structure. In 1971-72 the Society developed a new constitution to provide well defined interlocking roles for class representatives, Faculty Council representatives, SAC members and the executive committee of the society. Each newly-elected executive of the Engineering Society tries to accomplish some new goal to enhance the society. This year’s exec accomplished a great deal in finalizing arrangements for incorporation. Although the details are best left to the lawyers, incorporation is being sought in order to give the Society a better legal position commercially and professionally. The executive officers, Dave leGresley, President; John Byrne, V.P. Admin; Dave Neale, V.P. Activities; Spiros Pantziris, Treasurer; Diane Kapica, secretary, could not see the conclusion of their work as the year ended with Governing Council still in deliberation. iSLOYf SCHOOL ZONE � 42 THE E.A.A 43 Steve Roberts In 1977, some members of the Engineering Society recognized the need for the Society to put more emphasis on the professional and technical aspects of our development as engineers. In September 1978, the Cannon was born . Originally intended to publish every week that the Toike Oike did not, the Cannon was to focus on Society news, and the educational and tecnical activities of the Faculty and the university. After years of controversy over the publication of the Toike Oike, the Cannon was viewed by many as a welcome change. In that first year, the paper turned a few heads with interesting and well written articles on topics such as a hydrogen energy economy, solid waste management, and the achievements of the CANDU nuclear program. I he almost weekly publication schedule became too demanding, however. Lack of original material was compensated for by reprints from other publications, and the paper’s layout often lacked polish. Nonetheless, it was an idea whose time had come. June Li In the 1979-80 school year, the publication sched ' became approximately monthly. The look of the Cann became more professional, and its scope somewl broader, although original material was still difficult to fi and reprints were a mainstay in the technical pages. This year, the effort has been to improve the profile the Cannon. It was hoped that by gaining recognition a acceptance, the paper would also gain increased staff a contributions. The Cannon is mailed to every studs Engineering Society in the country, and to a number alumni. The Faculty’s High School L.iason office sen copies of every issue to Ontario high schools to aid spreading the word about engineering at Toronto. T paper is now distributed on campus beyond the engineeri community. A regular monthly publication schedule is met, and all tl material this year has been original. Society news, such the incorporation proceedings, athletic achievements, ar committee activities, has received regular publicit Technical articles, written by students and staff, ha ' touched on everything from a new sewage treatment facili to the scientific importance of the Old Observatory building) I John Voss, Editor Randy Sinukoff Advertisers, though not sought, have become interested, and the financial picture is bright. The largest problem remains to be staffing. Editors have traditionally depended heavily on friends for assistance because other help is not forthcoming. Since people who are friends are often classmates, this produces an unhealthy bias towards a specific discipline. Those who enjoy the Cannon must realise their responsibility to contribute some time and effort to ensure its continued existence. The work is not demanding, unless left to one or two people, and it holds many rewards. The Cannon is unique among Canadian engineering student societies. It is something of which we can be proud. I hope that this year’s readers of the Cannon have enjoyed it as much as I have enjoyed my involvement with it. I encourage them to contribute to the Cannon, for its benefit and their own. ohn Samochin From left to right across the page: Mike Martineau Randy Sinukoff, Mati Kontus, John Samochin Bill Mark BOOK OF SKULE STAFF 46 From left to right across the page: His Master’s Voice, Mary Stewart Steve Roberts, Ella-Lund-Thompson, Lorraine Marion Richard Jung and friend Wally, John Van Lierde SOVIET GOVERN- MENT LOCKOUT SUBWAY TO BE EXTENDED S.A.C.

THE LADY GODIVA MEMORIAL BAND (AND MARCHING GREGORIAN CHANT SOCIETY) Ah yes. One picture is worth a thousand Band jokes. The groups of people depicted on these pages are purely fictional, and any resemblance to any musical organizations, living, dead or on probation is purely coincidental. This was the (n + l) th year the Bnad played in the Toronto edition of the world famous Grey Cup Parade. After the Fireman’s band from somewhere- or-other joined us in a tearful rendition of ‘The Stripper’, an intrepid CBC reporter-type tried to elicit coherent noises from a somewhat incoherent bnadleader. Once again, the LGMB conquered (?) national television. Also on these pages, the Bnad can be seen cavorting with the underflrosh at Summer Nites, ac- companying the invisible Gail Hakala on O Canada! (in E sharp, F and G flat) at a Varsity Blues game and fighting for truth, justice and the Bohe- mian way. By the way, the Bnad wishes to thank all the F!rosh who swelled the ranks of the winning Bnad scavenger hunt team. Next year, we’ll really get disqualified.

Our goal, to further develop moral within and between years, was realized through a series of spectacularly successful activities. The smokers attracted a wide variety of Industrial students, faculty, Flrosh, and other assorted connoisseurs of feast and film. The All-Industrial hockey final saw a cast of thousands perform before an enthusiastic audience who filled a Varsity Arena seat full to overbursting. Despite the fact that our chariot met its demise in a Mech stress tester last year, swift action taken by unknown forces had us back in the race this year. A Budget Rent-A- Chariot was not spirited away from the Concrete Lab to be reinforced and painted with an Industrial logo. The traditional I. E. Dinner and pop machine both experienced a long overdue revitalizing. As we leave these hallowed halls, we with that those of you in future years achieve the success and happiness you desire; after four years here, you sure deserve it.

The executive of the club was well represented by the Italian section of Lelio Ciccotelli, Peter Del Fatti, Vince Volpe and Frank Giannone. Others who made enormous contributions were Paul Duffey, Rick Mangotitch and Elizabeth Gaffiery. Our Club activites included a visit to Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal, the civil dinner and Dog Day Afternoon. The graduating class was treated, as always, to suite repose at the Grad Ball. All the best to next year’s club executive. CONCRETE CANOE CLUB The Concrete Canoe Club is still afloat at U. of T. And it’s a good example of how a little hard work goes a long way. The major competition is in Akron, Ohio and the club gets annual invitations to Michigan as well. The entire design, planning, and construction process is a student effort but professors are always willing to toss in suggestions. This year’s club looks like a strong competitor with Civil engineering providing the backbone in terms of members, financing and experience. Industrial, Mechanical, Eng. Sci., and Electrical engineering also provide the club with members. Donations to aid the club in its endeavors are always welcome. Chairman: Rick Mangotich Treasurer: Les Medd ivil Grads Michael R.

As the years wear on, the experienced chemical engineer pays for his hard- earned knowledge through toil and the sanctity of his laboratory garment. Along the way, he has suffered the tedium of reports and the comfortable diversions of the perpetual common-room party. The spirit of the class of 8T1 was visible in the common- room, the two highly successful club dinners and many smokers. The fourth years also demonstrated an unusual fetish for coloured balloons with which they offered the staff a means to handle inflation. The diversified activities of Team Chemical give us a chance to prepare for working in a challenging and unpredictable industry. Good luck to everyone in this endaevor.

Zimnicki Another episode in the annals of the MEN of STEEL has concluded, leaving behind the memories of an eventful year. Too numerous to individually list, these included smokers, the infamous MMS field trip (where we graced Sudsbury‘s gutters) and card parties. Terminal ’Bridgitis took an early hold on the undergrads. The club would mysteriously appear enmasse at faculty events, such as the Mulock Cup game and the chariot race, and then dissolve into the woodwork as discreetly as it came, having left its mark. The year was topped-off by the classic MMS club dinner. Without foodfights nor napping, the undergrads managed to roast themselves, the staff, and the grad students, leaving thjemselves unscathed. Many thanks are owed to the will of Landrew for his photographic skills, and to the (WO)MEN of STEEL for their spirit at club events.

Zimmermanr 79 This altogether splendid group of coming leaders in science and industry, on whom the future of our world so clearly depends, is preparing to integrate the elegance of science with the power of enginereing in a last fine effort to save our civilization from the threats of disaster through pollution, famine or resource exhaustion. Along their way, strewn with U S lab equipment, unfinished assignments and the bodies of their fallen fellows, there seems nevertheless to have been time for some to participate in almost every activity the University offers, and most often to have done so with distinction. Engineering Science was represented in team and individual athletics of many kinds, in the societies and clubs, in theatric and literary activities, and in the musical world. Our dinners, dances and smokers were well attended and great fun. Engineering j Scientists seem a happy lot, despite the dour motto borne on the coat of arms, ‘Sweat i Your Ass Off’. Lamentably, some scurrilous pigs have absconded with our fine escutcheon from its standard on St. George Street and have not yet returned this j symbol of what is most noble in the faculty. It is but another mark of the ignoble resentments sometimes suffered by those who set higher standards for their fellows. F.C. Hooper Chairman Division of Engineering Science 81 MORRISON LAMOTHE INC.

WALTERS ASSOCIATES LTD. 4166 DundasStreet West Toronto, Ontario M8X 1X3 (416) 236-2569 OuDDOBDO OlDUBB President’s Message Times change, and we change with them. The Engineering Society has clearly- demonstrated that it is capable of supplying the engineering undergraduates with activities which are tailored to today, as well as an administrative hierarchy which is second to none. Those who attended this Year’s Cannonball will agree that though the old ‘Great Hall’ at Hart House was missed, a new meaning has been given to the words ’Engineering Formal’. The departure from the campus to a local hotel ballroom helps to demonstrate to the general public that we can be civilized, responsible, and mature. It is the general public with whom we must deal when we graduate and a series of successful events such as Cannonball ’81 can only add to the prestige of being a University of Toronto Engineering undergraduate. The much talked about, almost complete incorporation of the Engineering Society is but another example of how the engineers lead all other campus groups. Of all the college and professional faculty student societies, we were the first to proceed to Governinq Council with plans to incorporate. Since that time, several other student bodies have followed our example. This leadership will always keep Skule number one on campus and in professional life. This year’s graduates are well equipped to tackle the complexities involved in modern society. They will have to cope with drastic changes, as engineering constitutes the forefront of technological advancement. Another critical aspect of the past four years has been learning how to work effectively with other people. In most situations, a problem can only be solved after it has been accurately defined. This ability to communicate is an essential component of professional engineering. We should all be proud to be University of Toronto engineers, considering the excellent academic and extracurricular activities available to us. Throughout life, there will be numerous opportunities open to us, and only by seizing these will one become a top-flight professional engineer. To those who graduate this year, I congratulate you, and to the rest, 1 encourage you to hold the Skule banner high! 84 David LeGresley, President Dean’s Message This is a good time to be a graduating engineer. The needs of society for competent, creative engineering have never been greater. The recognition of society that innovative engineering is central to the solution of many of its problems is steadily growing. As you enter the next phase in your careers, I wish you continued success in your endeavors. May you frequently experience the exhilaration of creative professional accomplishment. I would like to congratulate the members of the Engineering Society Executive for conducting student affairs throughout the year with good management, good judgement, and good humour. This faculty sets out to graduate a large proportion of the professional and industrial leaders of tomorrow. A large part of the credit for achieving that objective goes to the student organizations of the faculty which so enrich our lives together by creating a sense of community and shared purpose. I hope that you, as members of the Class of 8T1, will retain a close link with your faculty in the years to come, through activity in the Engineering Alumni Association, through continuing education programs, and through periodic return visits. Gordon R. Slemon, Dean 85 EDITOR’S MESSAGE It takes at least four years to qualify for engineering, and a lifetime to live it down. Since you are reading this, it is probably too late; already you have committed yourself to Skule life for a while and to what could be a fascinating time of life. Here, one learns the art of instant critiscism and the dubious talent of biting cynicism but these make way for the lighter moments of which there are plenty (remember that snowball in MC 102 that hit...). During these times we can appreciate strong friendships and the satisfaction of learning, some of the real reasons why we are here. Skule is a personal experience, either shared or borne alone. I have been lucky to have become involved with the Engineering Society, an entity unto itself which is working toward and could become an excellent link among the faculty, the students, and industry. With incorporation having just been approved by Governing Council, the prevailing attitude is healthy. The Society will be hosting the Ontario Engineering Design Competition next year and I have even heard rumours that a centennial project is bieng planned for nineteen eighty -five when the Eng. Soc. will celebrate its one hundredth anniversary. Although a long-range objective for the Book of Skule should include an academic and technical profile of U of T Engineering, the ‘Book’ maintains and will always present a glimpse of the people who carry the spirits of the faculty through each year. Thanks to the ‘Book’ staff, Rob Sladek, Graham Skells, Rob West and Terry Sanderson, all of whom contributed time and creativity, we can look back on the year of 1980-81. 86 Brian Danylkiw, Editor Book of Skule 8T1 � � jj. ji i
