Year's Activities (Continued from page 2) where so many are affected by torpor. indifference and sluggish- ness. can withstand the assualt of Russian avidity and determination. NO SOLUTION "The same comparison can be mm? ll! lmlllslry. and the some speculation on results may be in- dlllsed in. Of course we of the West may say: "I ivould rather fail and remain a free man, than conquer as slave." But that does not solve the problem. We can still be free men. and be imbued with am- bition, eagerness. and readiness to undertake sacrifices. Perhaps the crisis is not sufficiently imminent to initiate any crusading spirit; but how near must it come before con- viction is widespread? Will there then be time to revamp our att- itude and philosophy of life? Or shall we still think that somehow or other in the Providence of God we can muddle through. These we thoughts that must permeate the minds not only of our students but also of our whole society, if ul- timate success is'to be ours. "Our total enrollment this year. 325, did not vary much from that of last year, a small increase at the College level and somewhat fewer in high school. Nothing of great significance occurred during the year to disturb the "even tenor of our ways". It was an ordinary year. with ordinary successes. and I suppose the failures may be placed in the same category. The only changes in our Collage Staff were the appointment of Mr. Cul- len DeLory. B.E.. to teach in the engineering course. and the giving leave to Father Adrien Arsenault of the high school department to enable him to study in Paris; he was replaced by Father Francis Ledwell. BIG UNDERTAKING "As a con” ' of necessary expansion. it is the purpose of the Board of Governors to proceed as soon as arrangements can be made. and that may take some time, to erect a ladies college near the campus. This will provide boarding facilities for young ladies who, at the college level. are '8' king courses here. and also make provision for some other courses particular to the needs of these students. I may say that. In our present financial status it is a se- rious undertaking. and demands .3 o u r a g e and optimism; we hope that once under way some interested benefactor may come to our assistance.

Our original basic industries. like agriculture. fishing and lumbering, have grown at a rate commensurate with the rate of national growth, but there have been some spectacular de- velopments. both of discovery and of exploitation. "I refer to the iron ore project on the Labrador Coast; the ex- pansion in the production of base metals and strategic materials in the Laurentlan Shield. The most significant development of a sim- ilar character is our new frontier to the North. And here let me pause to say that as recently as 25 years ago we had thought of :7 3 our country as having no new "I frontier. Now we realize that a new and vast area could be occ- upied and from it we can not only derive great wealth. but in it people can make their homes and live out full and interesting lives.

"It was rash of me to intrude myself upon the time of an ex- tremely busy man to come all the way from the Capital of Canada to address our graduates today.

Plans Modification Of Comet leis OTTAWA (CPI-The RCAF an- nounced Tuesday its two Comet jetliners will be modified in the United Kingdom to make them safe for operational use. The two British - built planes. which cost s1.54-1,000 apiece, have been grounded for nearly two years following two Cornet crashes off Italy which took 56 lives. The air force said a decision has been made to have modifications carried out on the two Comet transports "to permit full opera- tional use of the speedy jets." The two four-engine jets will be flown to t'.e De Havilland factory at Broughton, near Chester, Eng. for the modification work which will take about a year to com- plete. The plancs were built by the same company. STRUCTURAL DEFECTS The modifications will be simi- lar to those now being incorpor- atcd in the RAI-"s Comct 2's.
