ficials.

or of the Emergency Measures
Branch of the Provincial At-
torney General's Department at-
tended with Mr. T. E. M. Smyth,
as observers.
Many lessons were learned
from this Exercise which gave
the responsible officials an op-
portunity to actively participate.
Dundas were weekend visitors
with Mr, & Mrs. S. Molnar.
Mrs. Lorne Hicks was a Sun-
day visitor with her sister, Miss
Wilda Pollock, in Kitchener.
Mr. & Mrs. Ray Shoebottom

SHOWER FOR BRIDE-ELECT
Mrs. Ray Shoebottom was hos-
tess at a bridal shower in her
home Friday evening honoring
Miss Louise Prior of London.
The evening was spent in games

the bride-elect and her fiance,
Frank Shoebottom, from infancy
up. The book was prepared by
Sheila Shoebottom and presented
to the bride to be.
Jean Prior, Cynthia, Marilyn

CF Base Centralia is beginning
to show signs of integration in
one respect—Visiting aircraft.
This past weekend a Navy Track-
er paid a short visit to the Base.
The Tracker aircraft is a
Grumman designed, De Havilland
of Canada produced carrier based
anti submarine patrol aircraft.
It has a wing span of '73 feet,
The wings of the aircraft can be
folded for carrier storage, as
shown in the accompanying pic-
ture. It is powered by two 9
cylinder radial engines each de-
veloping 1525 BHP. When all
gear and wheels are retracted
it can obtain a max speed of 250
MPH, but normally patrols at
150 MPH with an endurance of
9 hours at 1500 ft.
The Tracker is equipped with
submarine detection equipment
which includes sonobouys, radar
and MAD. Sonobouys are small
floatabl e radio hydrophones
which are dropped by the air-
craft into the water and radio
back any underwater sounds.
Radar, which is extended from
the belly of the aircraft, pictures
any surfaced object for consid-
erable distance and a MAD boom
which is trailed behind the air-
craft when flying low over the
water. MAD is similar to equip-
ment used by aerial geologists
when prospecting for iron ore
deposits.
The detection of the enemy
submarine by this equipment
brings the anti submarine store
into play. The Trackers have a
variety of stores which are used
under specific conditions—the
homing torpedo, depth charges
and rockets.
The Navy Tracker aircraft is
part of Maritime Commands' ar-
senal. Maritime Command, based
at Halifax under the direction of
R/Adm W. M. Landymore OBE,
CD, is charged with the respon-
sibility of maintaining the secur-
ity of Canada's ocean shorelines.
The Navy Tracker, for a rela-
tively small aircraft, is a potent
anti submarine weapon system
and is one of the important links
in the chain that protects Can-
ada's ocean approaches.
Smelt fishing
is at peak
As this is written, the smelt
spawning run onto the beaches,
is at its peak in Central Lake
Erie. Smelt provide sports fish-
ermen with one to two million
pounds of "take home" fish an-
nually within a period of about
two weeks.
Some fishermen complain that
fishing is too good — one dip of the
net gives them more than they
can use. Unfortunately, some do
not stop fishing, and the beaches
are strewn with hundreds of fish
which are a complete waste of a
natural resource. This waste is
a contravention of sportsmen's
ethics and Section 28 of The
Game and Fish Act,
We would stress that the value
of sports fishing is, in the main,
recreational. Since smelt are
easy to catch in large quantities,
and there is no set limit to the
number which may be taken, there
is no excuse for leaving them on
the beach.

was a truthful portrayal of the
life of an alcoholic. I believe
the withdrawal scenes were the
most tense ever filmed.
"The Restless Ones", shown
Saturday night was a most
thought-provoking film. The
scene of destruction at the first
of the film was shocking, but
also meaningful. The auditorium
was filled to capacity and I know

No pipe-dream this—but the guaranteed reality of
a Manufacturers Life Annuity. Whether you live
for five years or twenty-five or more, you'll get a
cheque for $200 every month.
Let's face it—you've put in a lot of hard work
over the past forty years or so. Your retirement
years are your reward. The finest way to enjoy your
retirement is to have a steady, worry-free income.
Thebest way to achieve this is to buy a Manufacturers
Life Annuity.
You hand over to Manufacturers Life the worry
and risk of maintaining an income. Through the
annuity arrangement your capital and the interest
it earns are "scientifically" combined to give you a
guaranteed income for the rest of your life.
How much does an annuity cost? It depends on the income you need
to carry out your dreams and plans for those years after 65. For example,
the lifetime monthly income of $200 we were talking about would cost a
man of 65 only $23,380.
It's well worth looking into. The Man from Manufacturers has all the
details. Give him a call today.

Child Safety Day
will be observed
Clergy of all faiths in Canada
are expected to participate
strongly in the promotion of Child
Safety Day, to be observed across
the nation on Sunday, May 1.
The National Safety League of
Canada which, with the Cana-
dian Highway Safety Council, is
sponsoring the one-day drive, re-
ports a clergyman as declaring,
"There is no panic, no fear so
great as that I see in the eyes of
a parent whose child has been
hurt. There is no emptiness so
vast as that in the heart and
soul of a parent whose child has
been taken."
Child Safety Day is aimed at
making adults keenly aware of
their responsibilities in prevent-
ing child accidents as well as in
training the child to make safety
a lifelong habit, said the League.

Next week Mr. Roy Meehan is
being posted to the London Dist-
rict of the Canadian National In-
stitute for the Blind as Assistant
Field Secretary. The District
comprises the Counties of Elgin,
Huron, Middlesex and Perth. Mr.
Meehan will be associated with
District Field Secretary, E. F.
Wheeler, who is responsible for
the flow of CNIB services to
more than 560 blind persons, for
fund raising, and for prevention
of blindness work.
Mr. Meehan was born on a
farm near Jarvis, Ontario, where
he lost his sight at the age of
four as a result of an injury
with a bow and arrow. He obtain-
ed his education at the Ontario
School for the Blind at Brant-
ford, where he graduated in 1943.
For the next six years, he was
employed in industrial work in
Brantford, Wallaceburg and Kit-
chener. From then until two years
ago, Mr. Meehan, with another
blind man, operated a dry stand
and confectionery business in St.
Joseph's Hospital, Hamilton. In
August, 1964, he joined the
CNIB's Field Service Depart-
ment as a trainee. For the past
four months he has been taking
a special vocational training
course at the CNIB's headquart-
ers in Toronto. During his period
of preliminary training and while
on the course, he has shown out-
standing general ability and re-
markable aptitude for Field
Work.
He has always been keenly
interested in social and recrea-
tional activities of his fellow
blind. For a number of years,
Roy has been active in bowling
for the blind. He is also past
president of the Canadian Blind
Golfers Association and has par-
ticipated in many championship
tournaments both in Canada and
the United States.
Roy and his wife, Shirley, have
two pre-school aged children,
Michael 5 and Barbara two and
one-half years.
