Some Were excellent; some Were good' and others just mediocre. ■' ABC came up with one last -Wednesday, entitled1 “The Ken nedy Wit”, which fell into the last category mentioned. It's true that President Ken nedy’s speeches were filled with ringing. rhetoric and also with wit and humour that was eloquent and subtle. He had the gift that comediains call “good timing”. If North Ameri cans were not aware of this be fore his death, they have been made aware of it with the many documentaries thus far presented on television. Films, stills .and. recordings recalled famous and less1 well- known lines from JFK's cam paign speeches and calamities; news conferences (such as his celebrated! exchanges with newswoman May Craig); ad dresses to statesmen and Nobel Prize winners; informal Mo ments with his wife and family, and occasional problems with foreign languages.

Final plans were arranged for eight teams of two Council members to canvass every home 'in the parish in October for a cash donation owing to the annual bazaar having been discontinued. The membership approved that each league member be asked to direct $1 of her don ation 'to be given -to the Vanier Institute of the Family.

Report Aviation has made a' great contribution to Canada's de velopment and' I am still hop ing, at this date, that there will be suitable recognition of that fact in next year’s Cen tennial. celebrations, I am referring to civil avia tion and, in particular, the bush flying era of the twenties, and thirties. In those days of north ern development, when aero planes were still relatively flimsy things, more freight was moved through our north coun try than anywhere else in the world and the tonnage figures rivalled those of the Suez , Canal, ‘ ' The bush pilots who flew by the “seats of 'their'pants” with out modern navigation aids have stamped their names in Canadian history and have left colorful legends known to many all over the world. Wop May, Whitey Dahl. Sandy MacDon ald, Grant McConachie, J. H, Tud'hope. J. Romeo Vachon, Punch Dickins -— these are but a few which come to mind. Some have taken the last flight beyond the cirrus clouds; others are. still around. Bush flying, the two world wars and imaginative, daring and courageous men gave Can ada its aviation heritage. Can ada also' received the world’s recognition for being an impor tant aviation country when the headquarters of the Interna tional Civil Aviation. Organiz ation were established at Mon treal. Many Canadians don’t realize that delegates from more than 110 countries are based at Montreal to set and maintain standards, procedures and recommended practices for Civil aviation throughout' toe world. (An associated agency of the United Nations; the Inter national Civil Aviation Organ ization is the only UN body based in Canada). Canadian military . aviation will receive recognition next year in the various 'air shows, with vintage and modern air craft, and fly-pasts which are planned along with events/ such as the Armed Forces'’ Military by JOHN W. FISHER CENTENNIAL COMMISSIONER No. 24 will be a big feature on the prairies during the summer of 1967 and the Centennial Inter national Abbotsiford Air' Show, at Abbotsford, B,C., will be held August 11, 12 and, -13, 1967. The National A!ir Museum at Ottawa‘has been developed in to' one pf the best of its kind in the world1 'and it, with its col lection of laeroplanes from World War I to today, is a. trib ute to military aviation and, to a- limited extent, civil aviation, (I am pleased that recent ac quisitions of vintage aircraft and plans for more are making the foundations, for a historical bush flying collection at Ot tawa.) I still have hopes that non government organizations or as sociations will spark interest in further events to recognize general aviation next year. A handicap air-race for vin tage aircraft and displays from" the twenties and thirties could be organized by aviation his torical associations: and flying clubs working together, I'm sure. It's not too late and a meet or race would attract many Canadians by road and by air.
