Its good to go into debt ... to yourself
It's the streamlined way to make financial progress. Some of our most
successful customers use this system. It's the very heart of Personal
Planning the B of M's method of family-financing., which Canadians
from coast to coast are finding practical and stimulating.
It means putting yourself on your own pay-roll „ . making up your
mind that you yourself have a claim on your income just as much as the
landlord, the butcher and the tax-collector.
Yott& do this, of course, because you have a definite objective a
strong reason for saving, It may be a general goal like family security ...
or it may be something specific like a new refrigerator, a house, or even
a place in the country.
You can go into debt to yourself in two ways - by saving and by
borrowing.
Saving comes first, of course ... so much a pay-day owing to yourself.
A bank balance gives you personal confidence as. few other things
can. It gives you a good foundation for your financial plans and it
makes it easier for your B of 114 manager to lend you money when you
want to realize an objective sooner than you otherwise could.
When you have a sound financial program, but need money for some
useful purpose, borrowing at the B of M is just as sound as systematic
saving. Indeed, it is another form of saving. And it is the B of M's business
to lend you money, when it's good business for you to borrow.
' A 8 of 114 Personal Loan simply enables you to enjoy sooner the
things you plan for and you pay it off in regular instalments just as
you have 'built up your savings balance.
Why not inake up your mind to get what you want
this streamlined way and open your special-purpose
savings account at "MY BANK" tomorrow. And while
,you're in the Banks have, a chat with the Manager or
Accountant You will find them ready and interested to
discuss your plans and problems.

TRECatend SPORTS COMO
ify
One of the fine sporting gestures of
1952 was, in our humble opinion, made by an Olympic girl, champion. This is an era
in which the great ice shows offer amounts
almost fabulous to international title win-
ners, and there is nothing wrong nor un-
ethical In these possessors IV unique natural talents selling their wares to the highest bid-
ders, Sonja Heide, Barbara Ann Scott, Jacqueline de Bief, the
great Dick Button are notable figures who have led the vast parade of ice stare into the monied ranks.
To all this, there's one notable exception. Because she
believed her future lay in other, far less glamorous roles
than the great ice shows provide, Britain's Jeannette Altwegg,
the queen of the last Olympic winter games, hung up her
skates, refused a huge offer, choosing to devote her life to
charitable work that involved menial and tiresome duties.
After she had stolen the head-lines at the Oslo show,
Miss Altwegg announced she was through with competitive
skating. Few believed that she was serious. It was felt that
when, the "big offer" came along, Britain's girl champion
would succumb, as had most of the stars of her time.
The "big offer" came, an offer of 2,000 pounds, or around
86,000 per week from the Music Corporation of America. But
still this 21-year-old daughter of a British naturalized Swisa
declined. She replied simply that she was not interested, no
matter how high the offer. "I'm just not cut out for the
bustle and whirl ef showmanship anti it would make me
unhappy to do so" she said in effect.
Today Jeannette is doing something that is making her
very happy. She is in Switzerland at the international "Pest-
alozzi" village at Trogen. There she is helping in the
British dwelling to look after orphaned children who come
from a dozen different nationalities. .Her self-imposed tasks
for payment, less in a year than she was offered per day by
the show magnates, include the hundred and one 'daily
domestic chores involved in looking after children who, if
it wasn't for such organizations as this, and such self-sacrific-
ing persons as Jeannette Altwegg, would be thrown helpless
upon the world.
This isn't intended to criticize, by inference, those who
have followed the dictates of a practical era, and decided to
capitalize on the skill they developed through long and
arduous hours of practise. They're entitled to their rewards,
just as Jeannette Altwegg is entitled to the rich satisfaction
she undoubtedly gains in her more humble sphere of life.

RCAF Cancers Win
fourth in Row,
Beatrrrojans 66-51
The RCAF Station basketball
team scored its fourth succes-
sive win by defeating the Clinton
Trojans by a score of 66-51 in a
game played at Clinton, Jan. 4.
The airmen were attired in their
new blue and gold uniforms com-
plete with sweat suits and cele-
brated the occasion with a hard-
fought victory.
From the first whistle the air-
men took an early lead and never
relinquished it, Centre man Tom
Teak paced the winners with 23
points, and Al Wiper potted an
additional 12 points for the Air-
force team. For the losers, Arkell
-was the main and a constant
threat throughout the game and
scored 24 points for the Clinton
squad.
RCAF 48-St. Marys 31
About 200 excited spectators at-
tended the recent victory of the
RCAF- Clinton basketball team
. over the St. Marys Blue Devlia,
This 48-31. win put the airmen in
a first place tie with St. Marys.
It was the fifth consecutive vict-
ory for Coach Sgt. "Jack" Curtis
and his hustling team.
At half time the Airforce had a
21-17 lead and kept the lead for
the remainder of the game, Tom
Teak and Al Wiper with 15 and
13 points respectively were the key
:men of a concentrated airforce at-
tack. The passing, scoring and all
,-..around play of the airmen were
necessary to overcome the deter-
mined St. Marys team. For the
losers, O'Brien and Brown shared
16 points and ' were the main
-threats to the service team. The
-officials for the game were R.
Allan, Clinton, and R. Sasso, of

Training as Radio Officers at
Number 1 Air Radio Officer
School, RCAF Station, Clinton,
Ontario, they received an "earful"
of the importance of radio corm-
munica.tion in military aviation.
Their instructor, Flight Lieuten-
ant G. W. (Gordie) Fisher, Van-
cower, a veteran of 4 24 years with
426 Thunderbird Squadron and
Korean airlift operations, introd-
uced them to radio operators in
Kindley, Bermuda; Albrook, Pan-
ama; Shemya in the Aleutians;
Paris, France; Miami, Florida and
Seattle, Washington. For these
flight cadets it was a familiariz-
ation flight to introduce them to
their future roles as radio officers
and the wonders and oddities of
radio communication from an
RCAF aircraft.
It started in the briefing room,
where flight cadets learned how to
don a parachute harness and at-
tach a chest-type parachute to it.
They learned how to use the para-
chute and what to do in an air-
craft if an emergency should arise.
Trooping ,out to the waiting Dak-
ota "Flying Classrooms" they were
soon winging upward into the
Southern Ontario night sky. Be-
low the myhiad lights of towns and
cities were spread out across the
countryside.
Donning earphones, F/L, Fisher
handed a set to F/C's Perron and
Barr. Tuning the radio receiver
and transmitter he explained to
the students that he was going to
work some American military rad-
io circuits. Soon the familiar call
letters of Kindley, Bermuda were
being heard in morse code. After
a short exchange F/L Fisher asked
for the latest weather report at
Bermuda, The answer showed a
few scattered clouds, temperature
56 and visibility of 15 miles. As
students and instructor listened
they heard another aircraft radio
operator working Shemya in the
Aleutians, 3000 miles to the north
west. A few minutes later they
heard Albrook, Panama calling
another transport aircraft.
Changing to another frequency,
F/L Fisher said to the students,
"Let's see what New York is do-
ing." Speaking- into his micro-
phone he called New York but re-
ceived no answer. As he prepar-
ed to call again a voice said,
"MATS (5565 this is Miami Over-
seas Radio, over." As they listen-
ed to the MATS (military air
transport service) aircraft opera-
tor gave his message to Balboa,
Panama because he could not
hear Miami. Balboa relayed the
message to New York in a mat-
ter of seconds.
As the flight continued they lis-
tened to one of the commercial
air lines aircraft communicating
with Paris, France. Later they
tuned to a station near Seattle,
Washington, which was broadcas-
ting weather reports of airports
on the westqcoast. This included
the weather reports for Vancouv-:
er, Patricia Bay and Port Hardy,
B.C., which had been compiled 15
minutes before. F/C's Perron and
Barr had received a small example
of the people they may talk to as
future radio officers.
As F/L Fisher expressed it,
"What I appreciate most about
being a radio officer is that I can
talk to people in various parts of
the world while -most of the other
crew members are confined to ev-
ents within our own aircraft." To
the radio officer this is particular-
ly gratifying when flying over the
lonely expanse of the arctic or
ocean areas.
For every dollar of taxes• Cana-
dians paid in 1939 they paid $2.85
at wartime peak, 1944, and this
year will pay about $4.50.
Prince Edward Island was the
only province listing no bootblacks
in the 1951 census.
