Even though I have been in
the game of reporting and edi-
topjalizing for a good1 many
years, I am still, amus.ed at my
spontaneous reaction to an- -
nouncements. The chain of bne
thought leading to another, or
dredging up a memory'to link
the idea of a column solidly
together, is as exerting to me
now, as it was years ago.
For example, when I learned
the other day that Steep Reek's,
neiv pellet plant will go into
production at Atiiltokan, ' Ontario/
in July or August of this year,
if prompted me to' do a bit of
reviewing.
Three or four years ago, I
was a guest’ of the company in
their executives* house and giv
en an extensive tour of' this
spectacular open pit iron mine.
Womian-ilike, it was the rich
colors of the ore veins that fas
cinated me rather than the
magnitude of the operation. It
Was only when I visited CN’s
ore dock to Port Arthur and
witnessed, ‘from what. I ■ consid
ered a perlious' vantage point,
the loading, of- the raw .ore into
freighters, that I -realized the
contribution to . our economy
such an endeavour was making.
When plans fbr pelletizing
were confirmed,. I rather won
dered what would happen at the
docks. Evidently they will be
as busy ns- they were in the
days of bulk ore shipping. The
fleet <y£ ore cars have been fully
prepared and it is expected that
2,500,000 tons of pellets as wall
as some 700,000 tons of bulk
ore will be loaded on boats-' at
the Lakehead this year. ■ Area
officers also expect that, the
-ore dock will receive ‘ approxi
mately 100,000 tons, of - potash
during the flipping season-.
Now you w® see what hap
pens to “my '-thoughts as they
build an- idea, for a column.
Having remembered-, the ex-
oitiirig experience of walking out
that huge ore dock — covered
as it was with red ore dust —
I realized T .was witnessing the
tremendous shipping operation
that has made Port 'Arthur,
western terminus of the
Lawrence Seaway, the third
largest port to Canada.
A City's History
This year - we are recalling
much pf the history that sur
rounds the cities, towns apd.
Villages - of .our country. Bort
Arthur is' no exception, and the
story
this:
“A
shores ..................r
as "The Station”; afforded in
1857 ap.equipping base tor the
firsit Red River Expedition, -and
out from- "The, Station”-, -in 1868
prospectors found the rich siL
ver mines, By ..the autumn of
1869 a 25-mijfe military road
had been built to the. west and
in the following' year - Colonel
Sir Garnet Wolseley (later Lord
Wolseley), leading troops sent
from .Eastern Canada to quell
the Riel Rebelling, disembarked
at the ^scenic' anchorage. En
chanted with the natural beauty
of "The • Station’” Wolsely re
named. the outpost- village
Prince Arthur’s .Landing” in
,honour of Prince,, Arthur, son
of Queen Wcforia, - who., was
then in Canada,
villagers changed
Port Arthur and
the town -was
The -city charter
in 1906 . ,4.” ■ .
.. In these Tnodern tifote, over
,2,100 vessels a year load or
discharge at the Lakehead, car
rying grain, floui^ 'iron ore, oil,
coal, pqlp, paper, lumber, pulp
wood, sulphur, .automobiles, steel
and machinery. The Lakehead
port offers a terminus tor the
West, economical installation of
shifting boards tor ocean ves
sels and tower pilot charges and
harbour dues. ,
Nine major truck terminals
and the ON railway’s piggy
back terminal are" situated
Within a mile of the new Laker
head Harbour Terminal in Port
Arthur’s southern harbor. From,
these terminals,' cargoes are
quickly distributed to North
western Ontario and Western
Canada, -
In 1884; the
the name to
in that year
incorporated,
was granted

- YOU will find that the mini
nail .system, while itprovides
a wonderful bird's-eye introduc-’
tibn to Expo, is .not necessary
as za mearis of transport. The
Expo Express,- which ’is free,
will take you to the main areas
of Habitat, . lie 'Sainte Helene,
lie Notre-Dame and La Rotnde,
and you,can easily walk to all
the pavilions arid amusement
concessions from the Expo Ex

tinguished Canadian -artists;,
las Feux-Fol'lets, the interna
tionally popular folklqric.group;
and the rollicking Katimavik
RevUe.
The pavilion of Trinidad and
Tobago and.- Grenada features
four daily h'alf-hour shows of
typically, carefree West' Indian
fun — limbo dancers, calypso-
ringers and steel bands make
this pavilion ohe of Expo’s most-
popular. \
The amusement area, La
Ronde, Which is probably one
of the. best in the . world,, is
most spectacular at night, when
the rides are outeined. in' neon
•lights, Pioneeriand rocks with
the music of a honky-tonk piano
and the sounds of staged bar
room brawls, the gondolas of
the Sky Ride make" a shimmer

and the Gyroton looms/up .to
dominate the area.’ 7 "
Most of the rides are 25'or
35 cepts each. Hie •most eiabar.r

keep within your budget. ■ ' ’
Alcan Internatiional Limited,
■in conjunction with the City
of Montreal, has built an. ex
cellent permanent aquarium
and dolphin pool on La Ronde.
Adults pay, 75 cents to enter
the. aquarium, $1 to- visit the
dblphm'pooil; children’s admis
sion to each is 50 cents, The
faipiily.. could profitably spend
sweral hours here, watching
penguins ' in simulated Arctic
conditions, the. antics of. -per
forming dolphins and feh- vary
ing in size from one-tepth of
an ounce to 350 pounds.
A few more simple.rules for
getting the most out of Expo
if you’re on a budget: x*
1) Buy ah^Expo Guide ($1)#
and.’use-the maps to plot^your
route"-. Wandering aimlessly ar-,
ound Expo is’ fun but unless
you’re spending a month
Montreal you’ll miss a lot,
2) Take advantage of the
formation 'booths located
over the- site to find out diates
■and times of free entertain
ment,' Remember that every
participating country bias' a
Special Day at Expo which of
ten includes1 a. show-in Place
des Nations. Keep your eye on
ohe of the five big Electronic
Information Display, boards —
they flash .announcements of
coming events/ ■ ■ '
3) Be informed about free
Expo Services which could save
you time and money, such as
Logexpo (the accommodation
service), Expovbx (the .tele
phone information seryice), the
Baby Care Service (not a baby
sitting service but a place where
mothers can -look after their
small children in comfort and
privacy) and the Social Wel
fare Service' (operated by the
Cfity of Montreal to- help yob
out in any emergency).
You can spend $100 4 a day
at Expo if. you have it, but
if you haven’t, don’t3 stay home.
The sights and sounds of 62
countries ,areK at your doorstep
in Montreal, iand you can sam
