Convocation Speaker-Joe one and Only Illicli

Choices tor a convocation speaker were made at a meet— ing of the Senior Class last Wednesday night in the Pan- the: Lounge; Ivan Ill ich was the first cnoice with secongfgoing to Chinua Ache- be and third to June Call— wood. These persons were chosen by a vote of members of the Senior class present. Early in the semestre, class President, Laurie Quiggan, set up nomination boxes so seniors could submit ugges— tions; At the end of October Laurie collected the sugges— tions and a Convocation Com- mittee was set up to tabu- late the results. There were numerous suggestions put forth ranging from Herbert

favourites.

A meeting of the Senior class was held in early Nov— ember and more suggestionsH were taken. In the second set as well, Achebe and Il-

lich were again among the favourites. The vote held on Wednesday night was the fin— al one. Ill ich again was heavily favoured by the majority of students.

Ivan Ill ich, an Austrian Educator and Expert on Int— ernational affairs, has wri- tten several books. One, 22: schooling Society, has been internationally acclaimed by a wide range of educational and societal prominatanies. Ill ich has put forth vib- rant shock waves onto an

society. He has a number of violent critisms about the non—practicality of our pre— sent system and its inabili- ty to operate functionally within oUr present world srructure. He as well puts forth several 'real' propos- itions on how we might effe— ctively alter this network of bureaucracy in a fruitful manner. He is presently teaching in a university in CornewagyMexico.which he founded.

For once I think that the chioce for Speaker has gone in the right direction. A visit by Ivan Ill ich is something that would go down in the short history of this

'university, something that

Wind Energy

Shows_ Promise

Wind-electric genera- tors, small stream hydro- electric generators, Solar energy, Fuel Cells and Methane gas are only a few of the self—sufficient or supplementary power sour— ces which utilize the for- ces of nature without causing environmental str- ess or pollution.

Wind generators, alth- ough in service in many regions of the world, are relatively new to Canada.

However, in the face of ever increasing energy costs and the uncertaini— ties of continuous power from,conventional sources power generation from the wind has come into accep— tability as a viable al— ternative for a<variety of ‘applications.

-It should be noted that the proliferation of tractor and gasoline pow- ered generators has been vigorous in recent years ‘throughout the province as farmers realize the need to protect themselvw from electrical power in— terruptions. It has been demonstrated that wind— ‘generators can fulfill this same purpose with the added advantage of being operable 365 days of the year allowing the user to benefit from the generation of power on a full time basis by su- pplementing his energy requirements as well as providing energy for essential services durflg periods of conventional power outages. K

Wind generated elec-

ricity can power a resi- dence providing a comfo-

_ rtable standard of eler trical living as long as the user practices cons— ervation and utilizes appliances with modest energy demands...

V0 chair could be yours.

This is where you could find yourself if you become a Maritime Engineering Officer in today's Canadian Armed Forces. The Master Engineering Control centre of one of our new DDH 280 Destroyers.

No boilers. No stokers. No sweat!

The power within these beautiful ships comes from jet turbine engines. The machinery that heats, cools, ventilates and provides water throughout these ships is the latest.

Maritime Engineering Officers on these ships work with some of the most sophisticated equipment in the world...with expertly trained men who are as proud of their work as they are of their ships,

if you're studying engineering, think about this Officer‘s job. It‘s a very special one. It could take you anywhere in the world!
