Air Strike . Creates
Many Problems
For Hollanders:
Travelling from Holland to Can-
ada is normally a comparatively
easy trip of approximately seven
hours, but for Gerard and, Ella
van Dorp, it stretched into a, weary
voyage of many more hours, most
of them spent on a bus. Mr. and .
Mrs. van Dorp, both medical
doctors, reside in The Hague.
Friends of Mr. arid Mrs.
Symon de Boer of Lucknow they
were en route to Lucknow to help
observe the 50th wedding anniver-
sary of Mr. and Mrs. de Boer.
Thanks to a strike involving fire
men at the airport , .the KLM
flight was diverted to Chicago
from Toronto. The van Dorps
were to arrive in Toronto about
9 p.m. Thursday evening and
eventually,' after a bus trip of 12
hours, from Chicago to Toronto,
plus problems at the border due \to
the fact*that they had not expect-
ed to visit the United States , Plus
the trip"from Toronto to Lucknow
in a rented car, they eventually
reached the home Of Mr. and Mrs,
de Boer about ap.m. Friday after.

Lightning Gives
Ontario Hydro Crew
Problems Monday
The area surrounding Lucknow
was without hydro service for sev-
eral hours on Monday evening.
The problem area was just north
west of Lucknow on the Button
farm.
According to Ken Saxton of
Walkerton Office of Ontario Hydro,
lightning struck the line ,,broke
the insulator and burned the arm
and the top off the pole.
This main 44,000 volt line runs
from the Bruce. Generating Station;
feeds•south at Blackhorse and skirts
the village on the west side to
link up with the sub station south
of Lucknow.
Five hydro trucks and 8 or 9
men worked/on the problem
throughout the evening. The
trucks were unable-to get to the
site and the men were forced to
carry the new arm for the pole to
the trouble spot.
The hydro was off from 6.30
p.m. to 8 p.m.. and again from
10.30 p.m. to 1.45 a.m. when
repairs were completed.
