No one ever played the game harder than did John Sherratt (Black Jack) Stewart, at the peak of his career with Detroit Red Wings, or when he first joined forces with Chicago Hawks. Black Jack Stewart, 185 pounds of brawn, muscle and courage, was rated one of the most punishing body-checkers in the Na- tional Hockey League, He hit with shattering force. He and Jimmy Orlando, in the hey-day of both, formed a defence for Detroit Red Wings which kept many an opposing forward awake nights, counting the teeth he might not have after the next game. Stewart was still a great hockey player when he was traded to Chicago Black Hawks. But the crashing, hard-hitting type of game he played finally bounced back on• him, as if retribution had set in. A disc slipped in his back, forced him to quit. With typically grim spirit, he fought this off, took daily hours of exercise even while flat on his back in bed. He came back to play, apparently recovered. Then he ran into even greater mis- fortune at the beginning of the 1951-52 season. He crashed into a team-mate, fell backwards, struck his head heavily, and sustained a severe concussion. Even after that, Jack Stewart came back again. But quickly it was apparent that all Stewart had left was the light of battle tha blazed from his dark eyes, and the grim set of his mouth. That was enough to render many opponents cautious, as they recalled his body-checking prowess, but it soon became evident that Stewart couldn't hit a body-check, that he was depending on skill and exeperience to foil opposing players. And here this observer saw what he believes to be one of the finest sporting gestures made in hockey action. For years Stewart had been a star, a player who asked no quarter, gave none. He was a hockey player's hockey player. But when in the closing chapters of his career, when he might easily have been knocked over, perhaps badly hurt, if crashed by an incoming attacker, other players seemed careful to avoid. him. It wasn't through caution, at this time. At least, that's what we are sports-minded enough to believe. It was out of sheer respect for a once-great player who in his hey-day would have mowed down the invaders. Briefly put, the boys just didn't want to hurt Jack Stewart. They had too much regard for his courage, for his great record as a hard-hitting, game and accomplished defensive star, now not quite able to defend himself. So this observer believes Stewart carries into his retirement a recollection that sporting spirit runs high among the players of the League.

THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OP CANADA \ Holiday week-ends bring unusual traffic hazards to Ontario. More drivers and pedestrians use the streets and highways. More miles are travelled. More time is spent out of doors, and thousands of children are re- leased from school. All these factors swell the normal traffic volume and increase the. danger of accidents. I earnestly urge all citizens, and all leaders in com- munity and municipal life, to encourage widespread ciwareness of the need for safer driving and safer Walking. The traffic accident record can be kept down—if each of us does his part. The Department of Highways is conducting a planned attack on accidents. Let us all work together to keep the approaching holiday period free of accidents, • • GEO.

The Romans used runners, the North American Indians used smoke signals; but necessity is the mother of invention and as modern ciVilizations developed speedier means of communicat- ing were essential. At RCAF Station, Clinton, Com- *xnunications, officially "Telecom- munications", is a specialti. Sta- tion Clinton is the only trpining establishment of its Kind in the PCAF. The Air Radio Officer School trains the highly special...L. ized Radio Officer as an aircrew member, while the Radar and 'Communications School trains officers, airmen and airwomen in ..Xaciar and communication ground trades. Theoretical knowledge is essen- ?dal in all trades, but at Station 'Clinton the practical application of this knowledge is also stres- sed. As a result, the most modern :and specialized etectronic equip-. meats are in use, For example, the Radio Teletype. This is a re- t:erit advance in the field of tele- communications whereby Printed messages are sent and received by radio signals instead of wire circuits as used by telegraph companies. Another modern innovation is the Microwave Communications Link. This is a method used' to link distant (. towns together for telephone-communications. A sim- ilar device is being installed in Canada for Television linkage between Buffalo, Toronto, and Montreal, These equipments and many more will be available for public inspection at RCAF Station, Clin- ton, on Air Force Day, June 14. A display will feature the Radio Teletype and world wide news circuits will be copied, while competent technicians will dem- onstrate the use of the Microwave Communications Link. Air Force Day is the opportunity to see what your 'RCAF is doing for national defence.
