Of NuclearPower • There was : added interest to 'a very informative illustrated lecture on nuclear power at the Lions meeting on Monday, -be- cause ;it was' given by a former Lucknow boy, Ivan• Lloyd. Ivan is the son . of. •' William Lloyd and :Pearl ' Boyle of ' this community. Ivan •was born here, attended . public schol: ' here, , and high school in Lucknow'and Kin cardine. '' In 1951 he graduated from the University' of Western. ' Ontario iiihm a Bach-elo-""o A-rts7degree•• and spent ten' years in the. Lon don, and Windsor area. Last year, he :assumed the; position ..of : chief guide at -the Douglas. Point NU - clear. Power `:Station on Lake Huron midway between Kincar dine and -Port Elgin. Mr. Lloyd. 'was- ' introduced .by'W. B. Ander•- son* and:'thanked by Dr. D. E. Finlayson, • He outlined.. the - tremendous possibilities for the: development • -of-the. peaceful uses '.of•, atomic, energy,, The Douglas Point plant is 'for thedevelopment of electric power. It is the first: of its kind' .on thepresent scale,and will be but > :one of some 35.: such thermal -plants that will dot the province by 1,980 to help, supply -the ever- growing demand ver-growing.demand forhydro power' The ; plant is not unlike the conventionalo l c a fired plant, `'exp cept that its turbine -driving en- ergy is derived from uranium. &- heavy. water. combined in .a huge reactor' with four : foot • thick ce- ment walls ' . ' Ivan ' explained • the• splitting of 'the ' atoni as • the' basic; . Proced- ure in heat `production to pro- vide `steam power' to : operate • the turbines' to • generate the electric power. The atom is so'microscopic that 6,000,000 of them could : sit on the- head. of a pin. The Douglas Point station; a 2,300 acre site,•. ,will• have one reactor in operation by 1965, and provision is made for another one. The first unit will ,cost 911/2"mil-• lion : dollars, and will ' employ about 85 people when in '• Opera- tion by the Ontario'Hydro Elect- ric :Power. Commission. The pow- er will be fed into the hydro sy- stem through .the Hanover station. 'Mr. Lloyd's . pictures showed also the huge: intake and exhaust .system for drawing and return - sing , eturn-sing, water to Lake Huron., He said it would have no effect , on the lake temperature. Its increase'. in : sunnmer. . temperature of 14.4 degrees, , would not .be noticeable 100 yards 'off shore'. from the ex- haust Point.. • New'Members William Wlarry and. Grant Chisholm took their places, -as new� ''members of the Club and L. C. ' Thompson introduced Elwin Hall who will .be installed at the next meeting. • ' • Gordon Fisher read a 'tetter of condolence from Lions Interna- tional in tribute to the late Har- old Percy. .Charles :Webster, chairman of the Artificial Ice Committee, stressed thatthe Club had pledg- ed to Council to have..the funds available by March• lst, in order' to • proceed under . the Winter' Works program.
