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.

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. A similar test program

will then be conducted with the
second• craft, which will be dif-
ferent in several waysfrom Voy-
ageur No. 1.
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. Requiring a
basic two-man crew, the vehicle
can perform a number of opera-
Correspondent
Mrs. Hugh Berry
The Brucefield U,C.W. met in
the Hall on Tuesday , with 19
ladies present. 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.
The Treasurer's report Indicat-
ed $4,264.27 on hand. Mrs. Ber-
ry read cards from Mrs. Cor-
nish, Mrs. Bob Fotheringham
and 'a note from a former member

tions with its 64-1/2 by 33-1/2
foot flat deck. 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.
