J.R. SMALLWOOD COLLEGIATE. Built and owned by Wabush Mines, J.R. Smallwood Collegiate in Wabush, Labrador was opened in 1963 as an experi¬ ment in educational integration. Rather than bear the added cost of building and maintaining two separate schools, Wabush Mines built a two-wing school. One housed the Integrated (Protestant) section while the other wing housed classes for the Sacred Heart (Roman Catholic) section. The two wings shared the central core of the building which housed the labora¬ tories, gymnasium, library, music department, home economics and industrial arts rooms.
In 1990 this arrangement continued: separate divi¬ sions for kindergarten to grade IX with high school students attending all but religious education classes together. For a time the school was the only one in the Province shared by Roman Catholic and Protestant school boards, but a similar school was opened on Fogo Island in 1972 and, as enrolments declined in the 1980s, the model was employed in several other areas ofthe Province.

JACK LANE'S BAY (pop. 1945, 9). A formeriy inhab¬ ited bay on the Labrador coast between Hopedale and Davis Inlet, now commonly known as Big Bay. Al¬ though it is not known when the bay was first settled, James and John Lane were hving in the area by the 1860s. These two, who may have been either brothers or father and son, gave their names to the bay and to Jem Lane's Bay to the north (now known as Flower's Bay). The community first appears in the Census re¬ cords in 1884, with a population of 14.

The Lanes trapped in winter and fished for cod in summer from premises near Cape Harrigan, trading with the Hudson's Bay Company at Davis Inlet after a post opened there in 1869. Jem Lane died in 1870. A Moravian map of 1873 notes the bay's inhabitants as John Lane and John Ford. Two years later Samuel J. Broomfield settied there and thereafter most of the inhabitants bore that family name. Broomfield had a total of 10 children and by 1900 was something of a patriarch among the trappers of northern Labrador. His family were members of the Moravian congrega¬ tion at Hopedale and traded with the Hopedale mission or with Newfoundland fishermen in summer. He also was game warden for the Labrador coast from the 1920s. By 1935 there were 24 setders at Jack Lane's Bay. In 1945 there were only 9 people, who left soon after.
