There's nothing so stirring as a
group of i rate ladies on the
march, and whether they want
the town duinp cleaned up, or
the. dogs tied up for the sum -
liter, they usually get action.
But they're much too simple,
honest and idealistic to keep
their heads above water in the
murky swim of politics. It would
take 'them generations to learn
t h e resounding, meaningless
phrase of the politician, cen-
turies to piaster" the heartless
ham -stringing, the jocular knife-.
in -the -back tactics of internatio-
nal diplomacy.
I can MjustM picture *our first
woman Prime Minister. She'd be
a .grins and grizzled veteran of
a thousand committee meetings,
in which she had bullied and
cajoled lesser wornen into wash-
ing tip after the turkey dinner,
canvassing :fellow citizens for
donations, and decorating the
hall for dances, while she held
the reins, applied the whip, and
took any glory that was corning.
Among_ her first projects as
Prime Minister would be total
prohibition. When that had been
won, and 'everybody was making
beer in his Cellar, she'd tackle
unmarried mothers, and have
thele all shipped to a stockade
in Labrador, with the fruits of
their labour. Next would be a
9 p.m. curfew for all married
men. Soon after that, at a meet-
ing with Comrade K1 ushchev
or Jus Successor, she'd tell him
exactly what site thought of
triose communists because they
don't tits their hats to ladies in
ata elevator.' Nest morning,

types of terrain to bring aid to

Because of the training he re-
ceived at the school, it ifs a simr
ple matter for him to lower him-
self from the tree by means of
a no foot 'let down rope' -which
he carries in his jump suit.
When ‘the airmen are jumping
into any bush country where
they suspect the terrain is nicky
and covered with dead wood,
they deliberately head for a
tree to get chute 'bung up',
rather than land on the ground.
The airmen attending the
school must make six parachute
jumps into open country and
four into heavily timbered area,
before they are awarded the co-
veted para-reseue wings. In ad.
dition to parachuting. the course
covers bush lore, first aid to

•
"Bunny" Dunlop' has just lost
his job! In fact, all bf the wrest-
ling. refs had better Watch their
step from here on in because
Cecil Gibbons, local" strong man
in the. town of Exeter, made his
debut as a referee in the ama-
teur card at the arena last Fri-
day night and won two decisions.
That's right—two decisions!
We sayr°two because first of
all, Gibby became, the first of-
ficial to become a favourite to
all the '300 howling fans in at-
tendance and secondly, he's the
first referee to ever win a tag
team match.
• The local OPP Constable stole
the show from the wrestlers as
he took charge in looking after
the first two bouts to see that
everything went smoothly. Al -
hough a little out of breath he
managed to stay for the tag
team match between Walt Evans
and Don Smithson against mid-
get • Roy Smithers and Sam
Lamb.
The crowd cheered the free
wheeling guys and lie deserved
it.
In other bouts Gorgeous John
(John Weh ter) dropped a fa-
tigued decision to Harry Joes-
eph's son-in-law, Lee Sherman,
after their bout went approxi-
mately eight minutes.
The $10.00 bet between the tag
team of Jack Coughlin and Jim
Wilson. and Norm Tripp and
Hugh Wilson failed to change
hands as their roek'n roll antics
endedin a hotly -disputed draw.
College wrestling was intro-
duced to the fans as Joe Wooden
and bred Dobbs, 'both of Exe-
ter, put on a pleasing display
of the mat game in. a fast mov-
ing bout.
One of the main features on
the evening's program was that
of the Hawk front. Muncey
(Lloyd Ford) against the Duke
(Bev Lindenfield). It ended in a
draw'.
"Bud" • Preszcator and Cliff
Ersnian helped Cecil. Gibbons
keep law and order throughout
the evening as referees.
