THE WATCH BELOW by Jamei White (Walker, and Ryerson Press, 1969; 189 pages) Science fiction fans won't want to miss this fascinating tale of human survival in the watertight hold of a sunken tanker. The tanker is torpedoed during the Second World War and comes to rest on a shelf of rock beneath the sea. There are five survivors on board, two women and three men. For 100 years they continue to live by multiplying, planting gardens, rigging a manual generator for light, and playing a mental game that makes them the most intelligent humans alive. During this same period thousands of intelligent aquatic creatures from another planet are headed toward earth. Their planet's water supply is evaporating at such a rate that they must seek a new home for survival. This peaceful mission is met with hostility on earth because of their weird appearance and they are forced to hide in the oceans. A strange relationship develops between the aliens and the trapped survivors beneath the surface. How they learn to communicate and help each other is a most unusual and unique story.

Also, that the croupete had arrived and was already in use; and the children's ward had received two nursery wall plaques, and a small table and chair. With these expenditures in mind, the next money-making project was discussed — the "Do Your Own Thing Parties" at which each hostess can entertain in her own way, but realizing $4.00 for the Auxiliary fund.
