EAST — SEAFORTH >:.: TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN • "HANDSOME AND CHEERFUL" 411 Paul with the lovely dark eyes is' 14 months old, Par- tugese in descent. He is a very handsome boy with brown, slightly wavy hair and olive skin. Paul is..,_dne of those babies who start life slowly. He seems in no hurry to accomplish anything. Psychological tests nearly a year ago showed hi m much below the aver- age, but a second test seven months later indicated consid- erable progress. Though he is still not doing some of the things you'd expect at his age, prospects are good that he will be an average little boy. Paul Is a cheerful chatty baby with a happy disposition. Nothing seems to bother him. One of his favorite games is, to clap his hands, as he's doing in the picture. He is accus- tomed to children and enjoys watching them, playing. In- deed he likes anything moving, including TV. This lovable child needs a• family who will give him warmth and stim- ulation and who will be content to let him develop at his own pace. To inquire about adopting Paul, please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K., Toronto. For general adoption information, ask"your Children's Aid Society.

Phone 527-1859 • • Hold Operational Tria4 In Huron For World's First Air Cushion Craft The world's first Voyageur Heavy Haul Air Cushion Vehicle (ACV) has been completed and this month began operational trials at the Bell Aerospace Can- ada Division of Textron Canada Ltd. The craft was demonstrated at trials on Saturday. Tests with the 40-gross-ton vehicle are being held at Grand Bend Airport, site of the com- pany's 30,000 square foot as- sembly facility. Additional test- ing wil 1 be conducted on nearby Lake Huron. William M. Smith, Vice Pres- ident for Bell Aerospace Canada, said the craft's flexibleskirt was being trimmed and modified through operations over a spec- ially-constructed observation ''pit. Tethered at four anchor points, the vehicle is brought up on cushion over the pit to allow engineers to observe the internal members of the skirt system. ',It's something like a final fitting at the tailor," said Smith. Other tests -- over land as well as water -- include pay- load hauling up to the maximarn 25 tons, turns, speed checks up to the maximum of about 60 miles per hour, compass and instrument calibration. Voyageur No. 1 has been under development since early this year. Bell Aerospace Canada- opened the Grand Bend facility In January 1971 and began dev-; elopment and production opera- tions a short time later. At present, more than 70 employees are involved in the Voyageur effort. Under a cost- sharing Program for Advaace- ment of Industrial Technology (PAIT) agreement with the Can- adian Department of Industry, Trade and Commerce (DbITC), Bell Canada is developing and producing two proto-type Voy- ageurs. Worldwide applications are foreseen for the Voyageur-- which is built up of simple box- like aluminum Modules and can be adapted to many transportation and cargo-hauling roles. Appli- cations are being considered from arctic to tropical regions of the world. Voyageur No. 2 will be corn- pleted in early March--about the time Voyageur No. 1 is fully tested.

The most important change in the ' second craft will be its power. Voyageur No. 1 is pow- ered by two LM100 marine gas turbine engines which deliver 1,150 shaft horsepower per eng- ine. Voyageur No. 2 will be pow- ered, by two Twin-Pac ST 6 units built by United Aircrafts of Canada/Pratt and Whitney. The ST. 6 units deliver a maxi- mum of 1,700 shaft horsepower each. Chief test operator for the Voyageur program jS 4aeques, Robitaille, a reside t of Grand Bend, Ontario, who has a wide range .of experience as an ACV operator. In 1967, Robitaille served as operator for one of two SRN-6 ACVs that were operated to tran- sport visitors at Expo '67 in Montreal. Early this year he operated an SK-5 at Point Bar- row, Alaska. 4 Voyageur is basically a cargo craft unlike many of its pre- decessor ACVs.

Mrs. Doris Cantelon and Joyce Wilson had charge of the devotions . Mrs. Wilson gave the call to worship and "Joy to the World" was sung. Scripture was read by Mrs. Cantelon, who also read Xmas Eve thoughts and Mrs. Wil- son gave a meditation on "What does Christmas mean to us". Where has the Christ gone out of Christmas, she asked, and closed with prayer. The Pres- ident took the chair for business and read a short Xmas poem.

It was designed and developed by' Bell to fulfill a worldwide need for such a craft. Future versions will be mod- ified for such service as a pas- senger cabin for up to 140 per- sons, to roll-on, roll-off ferry duty in addition to freight haul- ing. The operator's cabin, located above the two turbine engines, provides all-around visibility and a full view of the cargo deck. Voyageur is made of eight deck modules and two power modules. These units can be shipped by rail, truck or air for reassembly 'at a job site.. Propulsion is through two variable pitch, nine-foot-diame- ter propellers. The Voyageur's engines also turn lift fans that force air down through the craft's side hulls into the, Jour- foot-high flexible skirts. Because of this air cushion, ACVs are able to operate over such difficult and varied sur- faces as ice, snow, water, tun- dra, mud or sand. Tests have shown that the fraction of a pound per square inch of air preSsure under an ACV does not significantly affect any ecology.
