Weed of Week
CRAB GRASS SFOILS
APPEARANCE OF LAWNS
Crab Grass (Digitaria sang-
uinalis, L., Scop.) is strictly a
lawn weed and a great pest to
householders who find that, once
it becomes established, it not
only spoils the appearance of the
lawn but begins to crowd out the
lawn grass as well.
Crab Grass is a coarse, annual
/grass with broad, short leaves
which, along with the stems,
turn red or purple in color dur-
ing mid -summer. The stems
spread along the ground with
roots forming at the nodes and
this crab -like behaviour gives
rise to its name.
The seed head is a group of
spikes, radiating from the top of
the stalk like fingers. Because
of its appearance Crab Grass is
often called finger grass. A great

that in Auburn.

RCAF Crews Bach
From Vain Scare .
Five Dakota aircraft and crews
Brews from the Air Radio Officers
School at Clinton have returned
from "operation Butler", a search.
for an American civilian Stinson
station wagon aircraft lost in
Northern Ontario. This aircraft,
piloted by Harry Butler, Detroit,
and carrying two passengers, left
Sault Ste, Marie, Mich., for Wawa,
Ont., on August 12 and has not
been seen since.
The searchers left Centralia for
U.S. Air Force Base at Kinross,
Mich., on Thursday and have car,
ried out a search from that base
jointly with aircraft from the U.S.
Air Force and from RCAF Station,
Trenton and the Flying Instruct-
or's School at Centralia.
The area from the east shore or
Lake Superior to approximately
100 miles inland and from Sault
Ste. Marie to beyond the Canadian
Pacific Railway in the north has
been extensively covered but no
signs of the lost aircraft have been
found. A search in that area at
this time of the year is very dif-
ficult owing to it being heavily
wooded and the foliage covers up
much of the terrain.
Controlling the search were S/L
W. Chrismas, Centralia, as search -
master and as his deputy F/L V.
E. Eldridge, Air Radio Officers
School. One aircraft is remaining
in Kinross for a few days to carry
out further searching and check
on any new developments.
