  • spiders araneae of Churchill manitoba dna barcodes and morphology reveal high species diversity and new canadian records
    BMC Ecology, 2013
    Co-Authors: Gergin Blagoev, Paul D N Hebert, Nadya Nikolova, Crystal N Sobel, Sarah J Adamowicz
    Abstract:

    Arctic ecosystems, especially those near transition zones, are expected to be strongly impacted by climate change. Because it is positioned on the ecotone between tundra and boreal forest, the Churchill area is a strategic locality for the analysis of shifts in faunal composition. This fact has motivated the effort to develop a comprehensive biodiversity inventory for the Churchill region by coupling DNA barcoding with morphological studies. The present study represents one element of this effort; it focuses on analysis of the spider fauna at Churchill. 198 species were detected among 2704 spiders analyzed, tripling the count for the Churchill region. Estimates of overall diversity suggest that another 10–20 species await detection. Most species displayed little intraspecific sequence variation (maximum <1%) in the barcode region of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene, but four species showed considerably higher values (maximum = 4.1-6.2%), suggesting cryptic species. All recognized species possessed a distinct haplotype array at COI with nearest-neighbour interspecific distances averaging 8.57%. Three species new to Canada were detected: Robertus lyrifer (Theridiidae), Baryphyma trifrons (Linyphiidae), and Satilatlas monticola (Linyphiidae). The first two species may represent human-mediated introductions linked to the port in Churchill, but the other species represents a range extension from the USA. The first description of the female of S. monticola was also presented. As well, one probable new species of Alopecosa (Lycosidae) was recognized. This study provides the first comprehensive DNA barcode reference library for the spider fauna of any region. Few cryptic species of spiders were detected, a result contrasting with the prevalence of undescribed species in several other terrestrial arthropod groups at Churchill. Because most (97.5%) sequence clusters at COI corresponded with a named taxon, DNA barcoding reliably identifies spiders in the Churchill fauna. The capacity of DNA barcoding to enable the identification of otherwise taxonomically ambiguous specimens (juveniles, females) also represents a major advance for future monitoring efforts on this group.

  • species diversity and phylogeographical affinities of the branchiopoda crustacea of Churchill manitoba canada
    PLOS ONE, 2011
    Co-Authors: Nicholas W Jeffery, Manuel Eliasgutierrez, Sarah J Adamowicz
    Abstract:

    The region of Churchill, Manitoba, contains a wide variety of habitats representative of both the boreal forest and arctic tundra and has been used as a model site for biodiversity studies for nearly seven decades within Canada. Much previous work has been done in Churchill to study the Daphnia pulex species complex in particular, but no study has completed a wide-scale survey on the crustacean species that inhabit Churchill's aquatic ecosystems using molecular markers. We have employed DNA barcoding to study the diversity of the Branchiopoda (Crustacea) in a wide variety of freshwater habitats and to determine the likely origins of the Churchill fauna following the last glaciation. The standard animal barcode marker (COI) was sequenced for 327 specimens, and a 3% divergence threshold was used to delineate potential species. We found 42 provisional and valid branchiopod species from this survey alone, including several cryptic lineages, in comparison with the 25 previously recorded from previous ecological works. Using published sequence data, we explored the phylogeographic affinities of Churchill's branchiopods, finding that the Churchill fauna apparently originated from all directions from multiple glacial refugia (including southern, Beringian, and high arctic regions). Overall, these microcrustaceans are very diverse in Churchill and contain multiple species complexes. The present study introduces among the first sequences for some understudied genera, for which further work is required to delineate species boundaries and develop a more complete understanding of branchiopod diversity over a larger spatial scale.

SO Sports... 53 Special Class... 78 Crafts... 80 Settlors... 85Although I have only served as principal for part of this year, I appreciate the yearbook staff asking me to say a few words. Like the grads of 1980, this has been my final year at Churchill and I leave with mixed emotions. I am looking forward to new challenges in the future, as I know you are, but at the same time I am saddened by the realization that a very important era in my life has come to an end. I take pride in the fact that Churchill has always been seen as a school with a difference. Revisions in the academic program and every other aspect of the school has become commonplace. Students and staff have continued the search for a “better way”. I will remember the ambitious undertakings such as the plays, the concerts, and the battles for athletic championships. I will also remember the less spectacular success stories that involved many hundreds of young people working to complete their high school programs. But my fondest memory of Churchill will be of the spirit of cooperation that exists between students and staff, the rapport, the mutual respect, the friendship. Thank you for giving me some of the best years of my life. Good luck to you all. The benefits of high school life are many — education, co-curricular involvement, and friendship are but some. However, those individuals who also give of them­selves to make the school better for all, gain in so many more ways. Those of you who support students council activities, who come to the games and productions, who help make publications such as this possible, all serve well the high school community . . . and in the long run receive far more from your high school years than those who do not. Let me wish that our graduates take much with them as they leave Churchill. I would hope , too, that those who return next year come back as givers as well as receivers so that they and the school, as a whole, may obtain the many benefits that such involvement brings.Judy, Your Honour I never was one for graceful good-byes, but when given the opportunity to have my own “spread” in the yearbook, I was prompted to try (see, this way I at least get to have the last say). So to start off this sad and final task of mine, I’d like to thank you for the opportunity you’ve given me as students’ council president. It’s hard to convey the sense of accomplishment and self esteem that comes along with the position of president. I’ve had the chance to meet so many of you that I never would have had the pleasure of otherwise, and I’ve represented you at your very best. But to be able to see results of my efforts is most rewarding of all. I’ve watched while you cheered the athletes to victory, encouraged the arts towards fame, and filled your hearts with pride — Bulldog pride. And I trust that well after I’m gone, this school will still stand tall, bringing forth fresh ideas, stronger competition and renewed boldness. How can I say good luck for the future? Winston Churchill probably says it best. Don’t take no for an answer, never submit to failure. Do not be fobbed off with mere personal success or acceptance. You will make all kinds of mistakes, but as long as you are generous and true and also fierce, you cannot hurt the work or even seriously distress her. She was made to be wooed and won by youth.” Words of a leader, and perhaps leaders are what some of us will become. I often wonder if he was to know of the vast educational institutions erected with his good name. Even so, he would have been proud to learn that this particular high school bears his name with dignity and respect. Okay, here it is (Act V, Scene II), the final good-bye. Gee ... I wish we could all meet again at some crazy reunion to share our success and accomplishments. But I know that as we part to go separate ways, we may never see each other again. All we have is this picture book of memories, Cherish it. Best wishes, and keep in touch. Freshmen Division page 9 - Heather Copp, Karen McCune, Janet Tse.

On behalf of the staff, I would like to thank Doreen Hill our advisor, who was always there to help and to give us that little push we needed from time to time; Tom Shields of Homer’s Barn Photography, who assisted us with photography; and, finally to David Neill, our yearbook representative from Calgary. I’d also like to thank the students and teachers who participated in all of our activities and who were so patient with us when we needed to get those photographs of them! This yearbook is truly a product of the school; everyone contributed in his or her own way. So, here it is: your yearbook! Top Row: Cheryl Harrison, Lila Lau, Sandie Nyhoff, Joanne Kautz. Middle Row: Doreen Hill, Shelagh Tyreman, Rita Gallant, Lynda Witham. Bottom Row: Gail Shaw, Cindy Areshenko, Lily Lau, Lori Field. Thanks to the following for their help: Alan Besseling, Betty Jo Glover, Danni Gallimore, Dave Langlands, Susan Shigehiro, and Brenda Wiskerke. We would also like to gives special thanks to Mrs. Liz Pavan, for the use of her pictures for our book. Well, another school year has come to an end and all that is left are memories. The staff of the “Statesman” has tried to put these memories into words and photographs and assemble a yearbook which, in years to come, will remind us of the fun, crazy, good (or bad) and silly things we did in the year 1979-80. The task was a difficult one but we succeeded. Our theme this year (the old-fashioned family) was not a simple one; the yearbook staff worked many long hard hours to develop this theme in every section of the book. There were times when things didn’t go the way we wanted them to and we felt like giving up. Somehow though, we always met the next deadline.wvWayne Addison Judy Aitchison Pam Anderson Cindy Areshenko Richard Auer Eric Bagnall Virgina Bailey Sandra Bain Richard Baker Tammi Bailey Helen Beck Natalie Belesiotis Eva Benis Alan Besseling Connie Blakley Layne Bloudoff Ronalda Bota Roxanne Briere Terra BrinleyPam Brown Robert Butler David Campell Tim Carter Gordon Chan Kerri Christensen Wendy Christianson Cathy Clarke Robbie Clermont Lori Collins Brian Colwill Heather Copp Judy Coppieters Diana Darling Kelly Dash Floyd Davidson Debbie Dawson Dave DeGroot Janice Delude Joanne Ditrich Brenda Dolinski Kathy Donaldson Todd Donkin Danny Dray Pat Dunlop Darren Dyck Cheryl EdwardsDelaine Fellger Lori Field Darren Flitton Sam Frame Colin Fraser Rita Gallant Danni Gallimore Dale Gier Susan Giroux Betty Jo Glover Jim Goodman Susan Graf Debbie Grant Tim Graves Murray Haines Tannis Hall Garth Hamilton Bryan Harrold Brad Harvie Jeff Hayhurst Tracy Heikkinen Terry HendricksArnold Heynen Darlene Heibert Glenda Higa Connie Hoff Jodi Holtman Nigel Hopkinson Michelle Hughes Linda Isaac Greg Janies JoAnnJanecke Ming Jang Carol Jarvie Anita Jauerneck Shelly Johnson Leanna Jones Kevin Jorgensen Brian Kaltenbruner Derrick Kanashiro Joanne Kautz Rob Keeling Murray Kimber Barbie Klause Richard KleinKaren Knoch Ursula Knodel Brian Kolibas Stan Kowalski Bryan Laczo Renee Lambert David Langlands Greg Larson Raymond Lew Rick Lister Brenda Lothian Sharon Low Shannon Loxton Tim Luchanski Allison Manning Stacey Manser Margaret Martin Sheri Martin Anna Marutkyn David Masson Richard Masson Kathy MatkinGord Matthews Karen McCune Tim McDonald Scott McGeoch Randy McIntosh Tom Munro Kathy Nagy Tori Neely Maryanne Nonay Dale Norlin Brent Ohno Donald Ohno Richard Oler Patsy Patterson Kim Perkins Ken McKay Jodi McNally Lisa McRae Josee Meere Ellen Nehrer Fran Melting Tallow Jim Mensch Mike Menzak Cheryl Mills Rob MochVern Piekema Ruth Pinnegar Teri Porter Faye Poytress Glen Preddy Darlene Smith Evelyn Smith Dorothy Prive Sheri Rae Christine Ramage Patti Rempel Ron Richardson Todd Smith Wilma Smith Leanne Ritter Marjorie Roberts Larry Robertson Shannon Robinson Warren Rowntree Steve Snider Shanna Spackman Shannon Rusling Miles Ruttan Shelley Saler Karen Sanderson Charlene Sawchuk Linda Sparrow Lansley Staddon Karen Schlegl Randy Schroeder Rhonda Schultz Nina Schurman David Schwarz Patti Stanton Dean Stephens Laura Sterenberg Patrick Struth Blake Tamayose David Thomsen Kathy Schwarz Teresa Trimble Janet Tse Lana Turnbull Gizella Ujvari Stacey ShimozawaMarion Van Egmond !

They are made to wear humiliating costumes, sing songs in MacDonalds and parade through the malls. During the lunch hour the students’ council set up special activities such as a dunk tank and races. All the grade 10’s could do was grin and bear it and carry on the tradition.Diary of Anne Frank This year the Drama Club put together the production of “The Diary of Anne Frank.” It ran for six successful nights in the W.C.H. theatre during the month of November. The main setting of “The Diary of Anne Frank” took place at the top floor of a warehouse in Amsterdam. The time was during the years of World War II and the year immediately after. The cast from the production were Shanna Spackman and Laura Sterenberg (they both played Anne Frank), Roger Schultz (Mr. Frank), Peggy Schramm (Mrs. Frank), Lisa Vaselenak (Margot Frank), Sherry Spence (Mrs. Van Daan), Craig Borland (Mr. Van Daan), Murray Redman (Peter Van Daan), Mike Plouffe (Mr. Dussell), Tammie Bautz (Miep), and Martin Cooper (Mr. Kraler). The director was Greg Wolcott and the producer was Carol Firth.On July 5, 1942, the Frank family went into hiding on the top floor of an Amsterdam warehouse. Ther Germans had invaded Holland and countless numbers of Dutch Jews were being sent to concentration camps all over Europe. When Margot Frank was ordered to report for depor­tation, she and the rest of the family, the Van Daan family and Mr. Dussell, an aquaintance, went to live in the warehouse. With the help of Mr. Kraler, the owner of the warehouse, and his secretary Miep, the families lived in secrecy for a couple years. Eventually their hiding place was discovered and the families were sent to a concentration camp. Soon afterward, the Franks were separated. At the end of the war, Mr. Frank returned to the warehouse and gave Miep and Mr. Kraler the news that Anne, Margot and Mrs. Frank had died in a concentration camp. 3941The W.C.H.S. Ski Club was a big success this year. The 35 club members participated in 3 day-trips to Fernie Snow Valley and enjoyed excellent skiing conditions. The club organizers were Carmen Meli and Roy Tomlinson, who took care of the publicity and financial aspects of the club. Don Robb was the teacher-sponsor. Several of the teachers came along as supervisors; Terry Tolley and her husband, Fred Andrews and his wife, Shannon Geer and Colin Turner hit the slopes and they, along with the students, had a terrific time. Downhill DisasterRock On This years Curling club consisted of four teams. The members are as follows: Bev Alexander, Wendy Ibuki, Dean Gallimore, Merle Smith, Glenn Hamilton, John Russell, Jim Goodman, Brent Haines, Murray Haines, Neil Ogden, Carol Imai, and Danni Gallimore. Peppers This year WCHS formed a new club called the Churchill Pep Club. The Peppers proved spirit at games. They assisted at games by taking tickets, working in the cafeteria, etc. Pep Club organizers were Cheryl Theodore and Karen McCune.From Left to Right: Bill Papp, Dennis Spackman, Garth Toone. There are MANY students who helped with the sports this year. They gave their time to be scorekeepers, linesmen, ticket sellers, etc. Sincere thanks to those students and the ones pictured here, from the players and coaches. 150 Km Club Top Row: Donna DesRoches, Derek Taylor, Doug Beeman, Bobbie Scales, Agnes Woolhouse, Merri-Ann Ford. Bottom Row: Neil Delude, Bev Alexander, Betty Glover, Beth Atkinson, Chris Bexte. Missing: Sandy Bergen and Amy Bigelow. For the first year W.C.H.S. has a 150 Km Club. The purpose of this club is to promote physical fitness on an individual basis. Members of this club are responsible for calculating the kilometers they run and marking them on a chart. The members are allowed to run or walk anywhere at anytime. Chris Bexte, the club’s advisor, is pleased with the number of people involved. Zime OutThe French Club participated in many activities, and fun-filled events throughout the year. They had bottle drives, bake sales, dances, raffles, as well as participating in the Kinsmen Skate-a-Thon to help raise money for their exchange trip to Quebec. The year proved to be challenging, enjoyable and rewardable for the club members. The German Club, though small, managed to partake in both interesting and fun events. This included folk dances, Alberta Culture and Linguistic Award Contest Day and the celebration of the special German holidays. They also managed to have a ski trip, dinner parties and a tobogganing party for leisurely fun. Even though this was the first year for the club it turned out to be a success.Even though few people participated in planning Grad ’80, it turned out to be a memorable event because of their hard work. Fund raising for Grad’ 80 included: the skate-a-thon, X-mas Raffle, bake sales, Grey Cup Pool, Gasoline Raffle and the Car Bash. Graduation was held June 19, 1980 at the Exhibition Pavillion with “Mateus” as the band. We wish the graduates all the best in the years to come. Grad committee consists of, from left to right: Joyce Scroggie, Tami Cameron, Wendy Ibuki, Carol Medoruma, Advisor Penny Dodd and missing is Carol Firth. jap Grad CommitteeSmarty Pants From Left to Right Are: Rob Roberts, Tim Vander Beek, Bob Albrecht, and Wendy Ibuki. This year our Reach for the Top team did extremely well in their games. Leaders of the team were Barb Day and Ken May. The students involved were Bob Albrecht, Wendy Ibuki, Tim VanderBeek, Rob Roberts and Rita Gallant. The team has so far played five games and are doing well. We hope the group does just as well in years to come.One, Big Happy family! 4951family Get- Together FUN 'N GAMESCoach: Eugene Yamada. Co-Captains: Craig Nyrose, Rick Jesse.

They played in a total of 6 tournaments, including the Eastern division in which they came in second and the Zone tournament in which they came in third. SpikersMastiffs Volleyball Top Row: Dan Dray, Randy McIntosh, Brian Colwill, Dave Heynen, Fred An­drews, Coach. Bottom Row: Raymond Lew, Rick Klein. The Mastiffs volleyball team broke even this year. The won two out of the four games. They have no official league so they played Wilson twice, Taber and Pincher Creek once each. Brian Colwill was the captain of the team and also the most valuable player.Back Row: Karen McCune, Susan Tokariuk (Captain), Eugene Yamada (Coach), Marg Tokariuk, Wendy Marsden. Middle Row: Cheryl Theodore, Diane Colwill. Front Row: Judy Jang, Bev Alexander. Missing: Denise Houghton. The 1979 Griffins Volleyball team had a very successful season. They participated in four tournaments. At the Pre- Season Tourney they reached the semifinals but unfortunately lost. This also happened at the Calgary-Lord Beaverbrook Tournament. At the University of Lethbridge Tournament they came in second place out of 16 teams. The Griffins also went to the League Tournament and made it as far as the quarter-finals. In the final standings, the Griffins were second in the league and captured 3rd place in the Zone Playoffs. Congratulations go to Susan Tokariuk who was the all-star player in the league, as well as to the other girls who played so hard during the season! GriffinsTeam: Patti Rempel, Patti Spackman, Lisa McRae, Kathy Matkin, Delaine Fellger, Eva Benis, Judy Aitchison, Susan Giroux. The Falcons Jr. Girls Volleyball team had a busy and enjoyable season playing several exhibition games and participating in three tour­naments. Most valuable player was Judy Aitchison.jog in the Country While most Churchill students were still cozily sleeping in bed each morning, there happened to be a small group of energetic runners, who had quickly gulped down their morning coffee, so they might conquer the coulees in the midst of the morning dew, and the faithful sunrise. As a result of their dedicated running, Giz Ujvari, Derek Taylor, Wayne Oliver and Rob Roberts were successful in competitions. Giz placed 4th in the Junior Girls Competition for South-Western Alberta, and unfortunately sickness prevented her from attending the Provincials, Derek placed 3rd in Junior Boys and attended the Provincials. Wayne and Rob both ran for Senior Boys for South- Western Alberta. Running is a self-competing sport which allows one to set goals, and be proud of self-achievements. It has no age limits, no requirements, except self-discipline; it can last a life time; it can be fun or serious, or both; it can take place, anywhere, anytime, and you have only yourself to rely on. The concept of running for self enjoyment is catching on, and hopefully in years to come there will be more Bulldogs conquering the coulees in the sunrise.rc L Down at the Swimming Hole This

Larson This year's Statesman is respectfully dedicated to Dr. O. P. Larson — our new Superintendent of Schools. To you Dr. Larson, the Yearbook Staff on behalf of the students and teachers wish you all the best in this endeavor.PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE *Double, double, toil and trouble; Fire burn and caldron bubble" There ore limes when our school seems like o witches' brew being stirred up by a scheming old devil. There are also times, like at our graduation, when the smile of on angel lights up the eyes of every student. So what is it for real? It's just what you want it to be. You sec with your own eyes, and what I see are: places to work, places to play, places to sit and think; equipment that works for you and equipment you work with; people who talk to you and people who listen to you; girls with bright eyes and boys with heads up; teachers with smiles and their assistants with busy hands. You don't see it quite that woy? O.K. we'll work on it and make it a bit better next year. But let's hope it will nevor be as efficient os a moihine, never be os firm as a rock, and never run os smooth os a clock. We will always need a touch of the witches' brew around our school so that future students and teachers con have the fun and excitement of doing things better than they had been done before. Bon voyage to those who ore leaving us and a happy summer to the others. R TURNERIn Memoriam LESLIE JOHN WALKER June 5, 1944 - April 13, 1969 “A Dedicated Teacher” "A True Friend”In Memoriam HARRY HIGA 1920 - 1968 “I expect to puss through this world but once. Any good that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to my fellow man, let me do it now — for I shall not pass this way again.”PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE Have you ever gone to an exam feeling ns though you weren't Quite prepared and then after you've written it you feef as though you had learned as great dent as well as having a desire to learn more and realizing what a great deal you have yet to learn? That's exactly the same way I feel now that my position has ended. It has been a great experience. A great ending for my school years and a great beginning for my life in the world. It has been a goaf year. “Wo learn from our mistakes* is an adage which again rings true because this council has many made. Considering the council was under a new structure, I feel that we have accomplished a great deal and gone over a rough road to prepare the way for future councils. Vm sure that our work has been a big stepping stone to a greater school spirit and achievement. Vd like to especially take this opportunity to thank all the great people who have hct[x.'d me this year and supported the council. I have found out how much my fricrxfs mean to me ar.d how the success of any organization depends upon individuals working together and communicating. The teachers also deserve a special thanks for putting up with the coun­cil's wild schemes, especially mine. And, on behalf of all .of the students, I would like to express our appreciation to the administration, especially Mr. Turner, who has let us get away with a lot of things and stoorf behind us no matter what. He has a lot of great ideas and is just the man to carry them out. Getting kind of sentimental at this point. / would like to say good-bye to Churchill. Right now / can hardly wait to leave but know VII miss it. It's kind of sad to think VII never sec all these friendly, warming faces together again and feel the security I have in this atmos­phere. I wish the graduates luck in the following year and hope they make the best use of what they have. And to you. Churchill, / wish you happiness in learning and in accomplish­ing. You have the most choicest and friendly people that walk your hatls. Just ask me ... I know them.Statesman MR. C.

It is with greot honor and pride that I stand here tonight for it is my privilege to introduce to you the members of the teaching staff of Winston Churchill High. Although some of the staff are rela­tively new to us compared to some of the old faithfuls, each and everyone of them has become an integral part of our lives. So. it is with great satisfaction that I present these ladies and gentlemen. like ony other group of people who work together, teachers form very close friendships. Such is iho case with MRS. P. AIVAU. MRS. P. DODD and MRS. I. THOMP- SON, who ore considered, by the school, to bo the Three Musketeers. Besides being vory dose friends, they also teach the same subject. During exam-time, they have established the honor system. Unfortunately, they soon had to give up* this idea when Ihoy dis­covered it was they who had the honor and the stu­dents who had the system. We just received this newsflash: MR. COLLIN TURNER, our French 30 teacher, bolter known or our Mordi-Gras as Bubbles, has recently given up his title as French king for the more glamorous position of burlesque queen. MR. SAWADA. known for his high intellectual abilities and his cowboy boots, teemed to toko little notice of his rolher diminuitivo size when he wos over­heard in the hall threatening one of our football play­ers .. . I'll use my superior size and strength!" MR. JAMES ANDERSON, alderman on the city coun­cil of beautiful downtown Lethbridge soems to hove gained quire a reputation for his ability to keep his cool. It's on ofron-heord remark around the school that ho makes Cool Hand luko look like Jerry lewis. If anyone evor watched his P's and Q's, it's MR. IANDERYOU, who teaches business administration. How­ever, his P's stand for the points which ore racked up by a pool Q. One of our younger teachers is MR. HOLLAND. Just lost year, this guy on the go bought himself a beautiful white Corvette Moko Shark. Now, you see a flash of white go whizzing by followed by a flash of blue — followed by Mr. Hollond making his woy by way of shank's pony. MR. WIGG, who occupios some of his time by teach- ing typing, is our man from down under. Ho is affec­tionately referred to os the Australian Torzon of the eucalyptus frees. MRS. THACKER, cur home economics teacher, has developed a vory interesting stoff-room theory about bold men. "If you're bold in the front, you're a thinker. If you're bold in tho bock, you ore sexy. If you're bald in the front and bock of the head, you just think you're sexy." MR. LOWENBERG acts os our lunch room supervisor. He believes in the rights of the students such os chewing gum during doss-time. However, to keep pace w»rh the officials, he has refrained from practising any of his beliefs. MR. PETERSON, our shop tcochcr, used to bo seen bombing around the school in his little rod Volkswagen. However, he was in an Occident so ho traded in his car for the safety of a two-wheel drive. His bicycle is now a common sight around the school. No speech about the teachers could ever be writ- ten without including MR. CLIFFORD DAW. His photog­raphy tolcnts ore very useful ond his darkroom obilitios ore widely known throughout the school. Ho is also the best friend a student could over hovo and he is like a second father to many of tho students. After all, who knows . . .? Meanwhile MRS. MARGE KAMINSKI, our girls Phys. Ed. teacher has corned tho title of "Hey Moml" Mrs. Kaminski, do you know Mr. Daw? MR. WILLIAM KANE has proven himself to be a great help os o counsellor. His kindly advice has stop­ped many a youngster from taking a wrong step in life, little do they know, that in his younger days, Mr. Karo was known as Billio the Bootlegger end after a couple of shots of his bathtub hootch, your eyebrows fell off. MRS. MATHESON of our biology lob is constantly amazing the students of her classes. She can talk about the birds ond the bees without batting an eye. She finds little embarrassing about the subject of robins ond wasps. MRS. WEINTRAUB is our foods teacher. This year she hos greatly complicated and endangered her life by taking on on extra course — a Foods 11 doss for some of our boys. She believes, in theory, that any­body can cook. In reality, each boy is learning iho fmo art of food poisoning. I hove rccoivcd ell of my little bits of information about tho teachers from various students around the school. When asking about our Chemistry 30 teacher, MR. BERGEN, I questioned a couple of girls from the girls' basketball learn. They hod, it seems, driven back from a basketball lourr.amont in Taber with Mr. Ber­gen. All they managed to soy about the trip, was, "Gee, it wos fun!"Every man liko to think of himself os o chef and in this respect MR. R. THOMPKINS differs little. But really sir. the Galloping Gourmet of Winston Churchill High? MRS. GAETZ has to be one of the busier members of the staff os she is head of the business education deportment. This bundle of energy has the honor of being the smallest member of the teaching staff. Not to be conspicuous on her port, but it seems that she has the honor of owning the largest cor of the teaching staff. At one of our basketball games between the staff and the students. MR. KRAHN, our librarian, was seen to be enjoying the freedom of the wide open spaces. If seemed he was playing the game in air-conditioned shorts. MR. FORSTFR. our English 30 teacher, was over­heard answering a knock at his door with the classic phrose, "You can't come in by the hair on my chinny- chin-chin!" MR. NUNHAM STANFORD, our vice-principal and Moth 30 teacher, is forever frying to be one of the students. He seemed to be carrying events to on extreme, though, when he entered the race for Sweet­heart Queen of Churchill High. Don't Disturb Me • I'm Busy. MR. BRUCE HAIG is our illustrious band leader. His talents ore so widely appreciated at Churchill that ho is teaching at Wilson Junior High part-time. When the staff and students learned lost yeor that wo were getting a new assistant principal at our school everyone was very excited. The rumor was that the man coming was a debonair city feller from the big lime . . . MR TERRIFf is the assistant principal and Brooks. Alberta is his home town. Finally, wc have MR. R. TURNER, our invincible principal. Ho has often been described os on© of the most democratic men in the city. Each time there is a choice to be made at the school, ho has all of his teachers fake a vote before ho hoi them do what ho wonts. Now, you hove met the teaching staff of Winston Churchill High School. Form youf own opinion about them. The students at Winston Churchill know from experience that this group of persons is what makes Churchill lick. Their friendliness and their wish to help coch and every one of us has mode the school a more enjoyable piece to go. In conclusion, I would like to. on behalf of the Grads, extend to our teachers, our lir.cere thanks and appreciation. Thonk you.

It is an event to which we hove been looking forward for o long time. It has always been our dream to be away from the disciplines of school, to make o permanent break with the yearly return to books, teachers and rules. Now we can be free; now at lost our dreams are true. And yet, underneath our happiness wo feel o sense of loss. School was, after oil, an cosy way of life. The teachers made the decisions and told us exactly who? was required of us. It was a very secure world; if ever we failed in any area, there was always someone else to share the responsibility. But from now on our lives will no longer be so regulated. The freedoms, long desired, are here, but with them come the responsibilities. The decisions belong to us. They will be difficult decisions, for o very skeptical world is waiting to sec how well we can manage our responsibility, a world quick to condemn our actions, but slow to accept them. However, suitably ar*ayed with our armament of knowledge, we con make the correct choices. Wo may make mistakes, but even these can be of great voluo, for they ere port of our education, part of our life. And life will bo our true education, showing us that knowledge really is its own reword. To say that we arc graduating from school hos little meaning In itself. Wo are, rather, graduat­ing from an experience. It has boon a long experience filled with many events, events from which our futures ore shaped; futures which ore very important to us. Our individual lives will no doubt be very different because of this experience, and will present us with many problems. But we can face them with the aid of the many hours of guidance which we so fortunately had imposed upon us, both ot school and in our homes. When we leave this school for the last lime, we not only leave the work and the drudgery, but we also leave our friends, both teachers and students. Some of them may stay in this city — others will go thousands of miles owoy in scorch of their ideals. We may go anywhere — university, other education, or work. But wherever we go, we will always remember our years at school, net as an end, but os o beginning of tomorrow; a cay bright with promise and hope. To the graduates entering tomorrow we soy forewell end good luck in whatever you will under­take. And to the parents and fecchers who hove so willingly given us their best, we oxpross our sincere thanks, knowing that they will feel equally rewarded by their efforts, for if was An honoured cause end nobly fought. And that which they so bravely wrought Now glorifies their deed. KARL JANSENSGRADUATION Graduation '69 will bo a long remembered one. Memories arc forever etched in the minds of 164 grads, the largest class ever to step forward and receive merit from Churchill High. An entire year's planning, waiting, and anxieties come to the forefront in one. never to be forgotten week. April 11, 1969 — the Farewell Dinner. If was a first endeavor. The General Grant Room of the El Rancho Motor Inn wos the sccno of a highly successful evening. As grads, parents and friends looked on. Master of Ceremonies, Mr. Colin Turner, conducted a humorous and very enjoyable evening. Following Grace, given by Rev. Eskdale, there was a toast to the Queen and introduction of the head tabfo. The first part of the program consisted of several toasts given by students, teachers and parents. Toast to the Shool was given by Ken Ikle. Mr. R. Turner replied. A very touching toast wos given to the Grads by Mr. C. Daw. Shirley Houghton replied for the Grads. This year's Snow Queen, Vicki Howg, made tho toast to the Fac­ulty with Mr. N. Stanford replying. The Grads honored fhoir parents with a toast by Jim Band. Mr. Tom Band replied for the parents. Toast to the School Board was given by Gordon Tanaka with Dr. J. A. Mc­Nally replying. A very onjoyoblc intermission came as Mark lowrie, Darlene Fletchor. and linda Boyle provided vocal entertainment. Guest speaker for the evening, Alderman Rox Little, wos introduced by Dale Ebbcrf. In a concise but sincere address he loft oil who were present with thoughts and challenges of the future. Shirley Hough­ton gave thanks to the speaker. The food was good, trfb service great, and all who were there enjoyed themselves immensely. The following week wos a hectic one. Final arrangements and proparaitons for the big day were numerous. There wes decorating to be done, practices to attend, dresses to bo made, dates to bo found, and lost but not least parties to be planned. Tho day at last arrived, April 18, 1969. Graduation Day. Rest assured, it was not wasted in tho least. Grads could be seen lining the various routes to Churchill before 7:00 a.m. What was the big occossion? A pancake breakfast, given to the Grads by a choice and wonderful teaching staff. One could not have asked for o bettor way to start the day. Practice at the Yates in the morning and then eagerly bock to school. Well, would you bcliove 'al­most' bock to school. • At lost the lime had arrived. It was o beautiful evening, with the exception of a light breeze. As 7:00 p.m. came closer, cars of seemingly transformed ladies and gentlemen pulled up to the Yates. Parents, Grads, relatives, and friends — all were there, dressed in beautiful formats, with eyes shining and heads held high. As the time for the entrance of the Graduands drew closer a hush fell over the theatre. And then, to the music of the. "Impossible Dream" tho Grads filed in. More than one person's eyes were filled with tears. Following the W.C.H $. "Alma Motor" the Grads were introduced by Mr. Forster os Mr. R. Turner pres­ented the Graduation Pins. Introduction of Teachers was given by Korcn Ichino with Mr. J. A. Anderson replying. Miss Vicki Howg presented to the school a beautiful water color painting. Carol Gibson, tho new Students' Council President introduced the guests and best wishes were given to the Grad Class by Mrs. Rcdfern, Chairman of the School Beard. Shirley Houghton introduced Guest Speaker Mr. Robert Gall, psy­chologist for tho Lethbridge Public School System. The Valedictory address was given by Karol Jansens. Mark lowrie then song "This Guy's In love With You." Class History was given by Alan Bcttger and Chis Puhl. Farewell to the Grads wos given by Mr. J. W. TorrifT. Dale Ebbcrf, Senior Class President, gave his thanks to the Grads. Mr. Turner's closing remarks ended tho program. Tho Grads exited to the music of "Some Enchanted Evening." From the ceremonies, the Grads and parents moved to the schcol for the Graduation Donco. The auditorium, decorated in a garden atmosphere, received the praise and compliments of all in attendance. A fountain score provided the backdrop for many phofgraphic keepsakes. Former president, Shirley Hough­ton led the Grand M.orch, which wos to tho music "A Summer Place." The orchestra was superb and tho dance was enjoyed by everyone. Graduation '69 will surely be o lifelong memory for 164 Graduands and their guests. tCLASS Allan: For a long, long lime now many of us hovo eagerly looked forward fa the day when ho would be graduating from Grade 12. Now os we ponder over our prcsenl predicament, wo cannof help bul reflect upon past expirences in our all-too-shorf. fun-filled years. Chris: Even offer oil the complaining or.d griping a lol of us did. it was worth every minute of those years. Allan: I sure wish there was moro to come. Chris: Our class, this specimen of "mighty seniors" you now sec before you, hove been guinea pigs for the school system over the lost few years. Allan: We hove been through experiment after experi­ment. though not all successful. Chris: Mr. Reg Turner, our principal, was the real power behind accelerating all of these projects. Real credit goes to him because it takes a great deal of work and "courage" to undertake so many experiments. Allan: Of course we were the first freshmen to under­take that terrible ordeal of "frosh day". Chris: I sure remember my senior master, dragging me around on my knees in a nightie and of course enforcing that I continually suck my soothor end salaam to evory passing "respectful" senior or tccchcr. Allan: Of course there naughty frosh who had to do their penance in court — like when Debbie Myers was fed o baby-bottle os punishment for her crimes. Chris: Which arc too terrible to mention. Allan: It was our turn this year os seniors to show the freshmen the traditions that moke we seniors what we oro today. (Yuk, yuk.) Chris: Mine was over 6 ft. tall - but with c few swats from my trusty broom and some interesting items of clothing. I sure cut him down to Pee Wee size. How about you. Allon? Allon: Well. I had five, all of them about os like os unmatching socks — one short, one toll, one fat, one skinny and one — wellll ! I Chris: Then our class started the Sogail program which was a combination of English and Social. Allon: With team teaching added for on extra good meoturc.

    Abstract:

    The annual publication of the students of Winston Churchill High School, Lethbridge, Alberta. (Volume XI. 1970-71)pdf"Knowledge, /fs Own Reword" THE ANNUAL PUBLICATION OF THE STUDENTS OF WINSTON Churchill HIGH SCHOOL LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA Volume XI, 1970-71DEDICATION Mrs. Jean Gaetz This year's Statesman is respectfully dedicated to Jean Gaetz, in appreciation of her endeavors while in Churchill. To you Jean, the Yearbook Staff on behalf of the students and teachers wish you all the best for the future. Good lucklPRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE I have always enjoyed writing a message for the yearbook, but I do not enjoy writing this, because it is my last one. Churchill lias always meant very much more to me than a way of earning a living and I have probably been too concerned, too paternal, and too aggressive in the execution of my educational plans for the school. How­ever, I did what I considered was needed at the time and my retirement is also what I considered is needed at this time. The planning and development stages of this school's programs needed my kind of leadership; the creation of desirable goals, expert accounting, clearest operational procedures, and a team approach to educational tasks; needs a different kind of leadership. The change in leadership in this school is therefore necessary and desirable, and you, as well as I, can be very sincere in congratulating Wayne Terriff on his appointment as my successor. He will not have my job — my job was to prepare this school for someone like him — he will have his own job and I think he is the right man in the right place at the right time. I believe I can state with certainty that I know that the staff of this school will give its sincere support and loyalty to the new principal. In all my forty-odd years in schools I have never associated with a staff of such quality of competence and integrity of effort as the one we have now. I thank every one of them for their contribution to my satisfaction with my present state of mind. I hope, notice this word, that our students will in the future pull their full weight in keeping our school from being bogged down in the ruts that bring most high schools to a standstill. Our present and past students have done a great job of getting Churchill on the right track but the job of keeping it rolling forward still has to be done. Think about these things: freedom to smoke, take drugs, drink alco­hol, wear weird clothes, wander aimlessly and discuss irrelevant topics. Aren’t they mostly negative, destructive and uncreative? Compare them with these: love for your fellow citizens, good health habits, active recreation, protection of our natural environment, skill in learning and enjoyment of the arts. Can you agree that these are more positive and creative and that the promotion of them is the reul job of Churchill school? I hope you can, because they are the dream of its first principal — a dream that he hopes will come true in the next ten years. 3 K PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE It is a sad but exciting time at the end of the year. Sad be­cause the senior class members know that after this year, they may not sec each other as a group ever again. In leaving, we must let people know they are paying taxes lor a worthy cause. In these halls, students and teaclicrs have let their egos drop a little and all joined hands to form a relationship that will not be forgotten. It is an exciting time of year because many students will decide what they will do for the rest of their lives. With the new independent study, maybe we have learned to be a lit tie more responsible. I'd like to thank Mr. Turner, Mr. Terriff and Mr. Stanford for all they have put up with this year, but most of all I would like to thank all of you students for standing with us and for tolerating some of the blunders that we made. Students of coming years, the school needs you to work success­fully. We have reorganized students council but it can only work if you try to make it work. It is a sound plan with only one require­ment — participation. Put a little work and faith into it and you will be rewarded by a strong council that will run the school. In closing, / would like to wish luck to all the Grads and also Good Luck to Churchill, which will always be with us.Statesman MRS. P.

  • genetic studies of a cluster of acute lymphoblastic leukemia cases in Churchill county nevada
    Environmental Health Perspectives, 2007
    Co-Authors: Karen K Steinberg, Mary V Relling, Margaret Gallagher, Christopher N Greene, Carol S Rubin, Deborah L French, Adrianne K Holmes, William L Carroll, Deborah Koontz, Eric J Sampson
    Abstract:

    The Nevada State Health Division (NSHD), with assistance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), conducted a study to identify environmental exposures in the Churchill County community where 15 cases of childhood leukemia,14 of which were acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), had been diagnosed between 1997 and 2002. State health officials estimated that fewer than 2 cases would have been expected (Steinmaus et al. 2004). The detailed methods, results, and recommendations of this investigation have been documented by Rubin et al. (2007) in this mini-monograph. Although the investigation found higher levels of potentially toxic substances, including tungsten, arsenic, and the dichlorodiphenyl-trichloroethane (DDT) metabolite dichloro-diphenyldichloroethylene (DDE) in residents of Churchill County than the values reported in the National Report on Human Exposure to Environmental Chemicals (CDC 2003b), case and comparison families had similar body burdens of these contaminants. Because the two groups had similar concentrations, CDC, in collaboration with Mary Relling of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and with the advice of William Carroll, Head of the Children’s Oncology Group (COG) Acute Leukemia Disease Committee, conducted genetic studies in an effort to identify gene variants that might have made case children more susceptible than comparison children to adverse effects of the exposures documented in Churchill County. As a result of the high levels of tungsten found in residents of Churchill County, the investigation also included a study to identify variant forms of three genes that code for enzymes that are inhibited by tungsten and may, as a result, affect DNA synthesis, hematopoiesis, or detoxification of contaminants. For a review of current knowledge of tungsten, including environmental chemistry, toxicologic properties, and ongoing investigation into its possible toxicity, see Koutsospyros et al. (2006). We also attempted to determine whether the frequency and types of cytogenetic aberrations found in bone marrow specimens from case children were consistent with the frequency of these abnormalities found in the general population of children with ALL enrolled in COG protocols or whether differences in these aberrations provided information that would suggest a common environmental exposure. The following is a report of results of genetic studies conducted on specimens in the Churchill County case–control study.

  • barcoding the collembola of Churchill a molecular taxonomic reassessment of species diversity in a sub arctic area
    Molecular Ecology Resources, 2014
    Co-Authors: David Porco, Dariusz J Skarzynski, Thibaud Decaens, Paul D N Hebert, Louis Deharveng
    Abstract:

    Although their functional importance in ecosystems is increasingly recognized, soil-dwelling micro-arthropods are usually poorly known in comparison with their above-ground counterparts. Collembola constitute a significant and species-rich component of the soil biodiversity, but it remains a woefully understudied group because of the taxonomic impediment. The ever-increasing use of molecular taxonomic tools, such as DNA barcoding, provides a possible solution. Here, we test the use of this approach through a diversity survey of Collembola from the vicinity of Churchill, Manitoba, Canada, and compare the results with previous surveys in the same area and in other sub-Arctic regions. The systematic barcoding campaign at Churchill revealed a diverse collembolan fauna consisting of 97 species-level MOTUs in six types of habitats. If all these MOTUs are confirmed as species, this richness would be far higher than prior records for Arctic Canada and could lead to reconsider the actual diversity of the group in Arctic environments.

  • spiders araneae of Churchill manitoba dna barcodes and morphology reveal high species diversity and new canadian records
    BMC Ecology, 2013
    Co-Authors: Gergin Blagoev, Paul D N Hebert, Nadya Nikolova, Crystal N Sobel, Sarah J Adamowicz
    Abstract:

    Arctic ecosystems, especially those near transition zones, are expected to be strongly impacted by climate change. Because it is positioned on the ecotone between tundra and boreal forest, the Churchill area is a strategic locality for the analysis of shifts in faunal composition. This fact has motivated the effort to develop a comprehensive biodiversity inventory for the Churchill region by coupling DNA barcoding with morphological studies. The present study represents one element of this effort; it focuses on analysis of the spider fauna at Churchill. 198 species were detected among 2704 spiders analyzed, tripling the count for the Churchill region. Estimates of overall diversity suggest that another 10–20 species await detection. Most species displayed little intraspecific sequence variation (maximum <1%) in the barcode region of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene, but four species showed considerably higher values (maximum = 4.1-6.2%), suggesting cryptic species. All recognized species possessed a distinct haplotype array at COI with nearest-neighbour interspecific distances averaging 8.57%. Three species new to Canada were detected: Robertus lyrifer (Theridiidae), Baryphyma trifrons (Linyphiidae), and Satilatlas monticola (Linyphiidae). The first two species may represent human-mediated introductions linked to the port in Churchill, but the other species represents a range extension from the USA. The first description of the female of S. monticola was also presented. As well, one probable new species of Alopecosa (Lycosidae) was recognized. This study provides the first comprehensive DNA barcode reference library for the spider fauna of any region. Few cryptic species of spiders were detected, a result contrasting with the prevalence of undescribed species in several other terrestrial arthropod groups at Churchill. Because most (97.5%) sequence clusters at COI corresponded with a named taxon, DNA barcoding reliably identifies spiders in the Churchill fauna. The capacity of DNA barcoding to enable the identification of otherwise taxonomically ambiguous specimens (juveniles, females) also represents a major advance for future monitoring efforts on this group.

  • a poorly known high latitude parasitoid wasp community unexpected diversity and dramatic changes through time
    PLOS ONE, 2011
    Co-Authors: Paul D N Hebert, Jose Fernandeztriana, Alex M Smith, Caroline Boudreault, Henri Goulet, Adam C Smith, Rob Roughley
    Abstract:

    Climate change will have profound and unanticipated effects on species distributions. The pace and nature of this change is largely unstudied, especially for the most diverse elements of terrestrial communities – the arthropods – here we have only limited knowledge concerning the taxonomy and the ecology of these groups. Because Arctic ecosystems have already experienced significant increases in temperature over the past half century, shifts in community structure may already be in progress. Here we utilise collections of a particularly hyperdiverse insect group – parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera; Braconidae; Microgastrinae) – at Churchill, Manitoba, Canada in the early and mid-twentieth century to compare the composition of the contemporary community to that present 50–70 years ago. Morphological and DNA barcoding results revealed the presence of 79 species of microgastrine wasps in collections from Churchill, but we estimate that 20% of the local fauna awaits detection. Species composition and diversity between the two time periods differ significantly; species that were most common in historic collections were not found in contemporary collections and vice versa. Using barcodes we compared these collections to others from across North America; contemporary Churchill species are most affiliated with more south-western collections, while historic collections were more affiliated with eastern collections. The past five decades has clearly seen a dramatic change of species composition within the area studied coincident with rising temperature.
