Big Training Role '
Evidence that the, R.C.A.F, sta
tion at Centralia is to play a prom
inent part in the peace-time train
ing organization of the air force
was shown at Trenton Monday
when Instrument Flying School,
under the command of Wing Cmdr.
D. E. Galloway, M.B.E., moved
from Trenton to Centralia.
I.F.S., the only unit to give or
ganized instrument flying training
in the R.C.A.F., operates an ex
tensive 10-week course for classes
of 10 trainees at a time. In the past
■these courses have included Royal
Air Force personnel and flying list
officers from the air squadrons of
the Royal Canadian Navy as well
as R.’C.A.F. pilots. The staff of
the school, numbering 14 officers,
give instruction in the well-known
twin engined Beechcraft Expeditor
aircraft; range flying, airways pro
cedures, navigation, and instru
ment letdowns are main subjects
on the course.
Centralia has in the past been
a vital centre for R.C.A.F. training.
It opened August 3, 1942, as No. 9
Service Flying Training School and
later became a part of the (British
-Commonwealth Air Training Plan.
No. 9 'S.F.T.S, was disbanded June
1, 1945, and from that time until
'September 16, 1945, Centralia hous
ed No. 1 Aircrew 'Conditioning Unit,
after which No. 1 F.T.S. moved in
■and stayed until February 1, 1946.
From that date until last January
13, when No. 2 Radar and Com
munications ‘School was formed, the
station was inactive with only a
holding party there to maintain
runways and buildings.

liquor for sale, contrary to the
Canada Temperan.ce Act, laid against
Joseph Allaire, Goderich, on the
ground that the information and
search warrant were not drawn up
according to law.
The Magistrate was asked by
Crown Attorney D. E. Holmes, when
I he case opened, to decide whether
the search warrant was valid, be
cause it had been signed hy only
one justice of the peace instead of
two. It was argued by Frank Don
nelly, K.C., counsel for the accused,
that the charge must fail because
of two additional defects in the
warrant—no grounds of suspicion,
and the information was laid under
the L.C.A. instead of the C.T.A.
Magistrate Cook said the C.T.A*,
section 137, provides the machin
ery by which a search warrant can
be secured. The information must
be taken to a judge, magistrate, or
two or more justices of the peace.
Last week, when the case was
before the court, according to the
evidence submitted by the Crown, I
the police searched the Allaire J
premises and found a number of
cartons of liquor with permits;, and
had seized a number of permits. Mr.
Donnelly had moved, then, that the
charge must fail, as the warrant
was not properly signed.
Given Minimum Fine
James T. Ashton, Goderich, was
convicted of unlawfully bringing in
to Huron county intoxicating liquor
on Feb. 14, 1947, contrary” to the
C.T.A. He was fined $50 with costs,
or one month in jail. As this was
the first prosecution of its kind
under the act in Huron, the mini
mum fine was assessed.
It was agreed by counsel that the
accused went out of the county of
Huron to Stratford where he and
two other occupants of the car he
was driving each purchased for him
self a case of beer, and brought
back that beer into the county of
Huron; and that it was legally pur
chased in Stratford.
Crown Attorney Holmes argued
that under the C.T.A. a person can
bring liquor in for another person
but not
“This
oil held
L.C.A.,”
“It is
the L.C.A.,’
“It does not prevent the purchase
outside the county o£ any quantity
of liquor for persons within the
county”
Mr. Donnelly said the argument
rested on the “to” in the act, and ,
argued that a person could- bring
liquor to -himself the same as he
could to another person.
Mr. Holmes recalled that >he had
practised under the C.T.A. for a
year before it went into eclipse.
The act was drawn up in horse
and buggy days, he said, -and it was
■considered a fine act by enforce
ment officers to detect liquor in
the baggage of passengers when
it was put off trains at railway
stations.
Ill giving his decision, Magistrate
Cook said the C.T.A. actually pro
hibits transportation. The
bad a significant meaning,
carry to”, one must carry
one person to another which
; not mean carrying to one’s
; Being an act to restrict transporta-
; tion means that a person can have
J it sent, shipped, or carried to any
person, “but I cannot see how it
can be carried to one’s self.”
Fined On Second Charge
Ashton was also fined $25, with
costs of $14.50, or one month in
jail, after he pleaded guilty to
leaving the scene o£ an accident.
The c-harge arose out of an accident
on Feb. 14, when a cai- driven 'by
the accused was involved in
accident on Highway No. 8,
of Clinton.
Charges of bringing into Huron
county intoxicating liquor under
the C.T.A. were withdrawn against
Stanley Sproul and Harold Ashton,
who were companions of James
Ashton.
