In a Montreal building adorned by the bas-relief seen at upper left, young men bound for duty along the Mid-Canada Lirie are taking a course covering the entire range of modern communications. Instructors selected from amongst engineers and technicians of the Bell Telephone Company of' Canada guide the students through a six-month course in the world up-to-date- minute communication systems. Picture at upper right shows Instructor Gerrie Brent preparing a radar demonstration unit. Seen at- lower left are Gil Noall and Bob Herber discussing a special Bell Teletype feature. At lower left, technicians John Radcliffe and Instructor Dick Atkinson put the multiplex training unit through a series of tests.. Join The Navy, See World? Exeter Sailor Says It s So The recruiting posters say: j beside the places mentioned’ It lasted three days, during which Join the navy and see the world, i above. | the deck was continually awash. . ... Several lifeboats were smashed in the near-hurricane force. They Like Cards What do sailors do in their spare .time at sea? Ken’s a con­ firmed bridge player and cards .are the most popular after-duty sport. Tournaments and marks- menship contests are organized for the men and shows are pro­ vided every week. Although the Navy isn’t ex­ panding rapidly these days, the service has ordered 13 new de­ stroyer escort vessels for anti­ submarine action. They’ll be de­ signed >to ward off - radiation from atomic attacks. The Navy also expects to get •the British aircraft carrier, Bon­ aventure, which will handle jet craft, in. exchange for the Mag­ nificent. Ken’s wife, Wayne, comes from Dartmouth where the fam­ ily now lives. Their children in­ clude Jacqueline 9, Yvonne 8 and Karen Anne, seven months. Proof of this pudding is Petty Officer First Class Ken Taylor, son of Exeter Councillor Ross Taylor and Mrs. Taylor, who’s spending leave here with his family. Ken’s made the jaunt around the globe in 79 days, something of a record for a navy man. But he had the help of the air force to do it. Ken, now 28, has served 10 years in the Canadian Navy. He left Exeter to join up in 1945. An engineering mechanic, re­ sponsible for.operation and main­ tenance of the ship’s engine, Ken has served on the destroyer Mic­ mac for the past four years. His latest cruise ’took him to the Carribean this summer, where the east and west coast fleets met for a three week’s exercise. On their way home, the eastern squadron joined an American task force at Norfolk,. Virginia, for exercise New Broom Fivg, which last five days. Visited Islands During the cruise, Ken’s squad­ ron, which included the aircraft carrier Magnificent, became the first z Canadian naval force to visit Haiti since the war. The navy also visited Trinidad, Bar­ bados', Virgin Islands, Porto Ri­ co, and Cuba during their' two and. one-half months tour. Of all the countries Ken has seen in his 10 years in the navy, he was impressed most by Nor­ way, which he visited during a three-month European cruise in 1950. The cleanliness of the country^ its magnificent scenery and friendliness of '.the people were .outstanding. During - the round-the-world-' tour in 1952, he flew from Van­ couver to Japan where he joined the deStroyer .Nutka during the Korean. conflict. . On the flight he stopped at the Aleutian Is­ lands, and Tokyo, where he tour­ ed the fambus Ghisha market. Ken returned home on the Nut- ka through the Suez canal. The list of countries he’s visit­ ed reads like a gazetteer. He’s been in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malta, Italy, Gibraltar, France, United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Portugal,, and the Azores Islands Friendly Reception Wherever Canadians go, they are received “pretty well”, says Ken. Friendliest reception they’ve experienced was in Havana, Cuba, where the navy was treat­ ed to dances, parties and tours. At almost every port where they stop, the Canadians are given tours. Many of the visits are fori the purpose of good will, and foreign dignitaries are en­ tertained on Canadian ships. Ken finds the English lan­ guage is pretty universal and the Canadians have little trouble in foreign ports. The worst countries, as far as language is concerned^ are Italy and France, Ken has found. On the destroyer Micmac, Ken is one of 275 men who man the ship. It’s 380 feet long and has a 41-foot beam.'He says the food is good and accomodation com­ fortable at sea. Roughest storm he’s been in came during a trip to Bermuda. The Story In Saintsbury By MRS* H. DAVIS .
