delightful spot fora days outing..
Many visitors take picnic lunches
and swimsuits. There are two de-
veloped picnic areas, one on a
pleasant beach complete with
changing houses. Picnic baskets
can be checked at the parking lot
and delivered later to the picnic
area.
Fees for the tour are 50 cents
for tar parking, plus 1 peradult
and 50 cents per child 14 years
and under or $2.50 for -a family. A
special boat tour originating at
the Longboat Inn Marina costs
$2:"50 per person.. The boat takes
visitors to. Oak Island where they
disembark at Joudrey's Beach
and then proceed on the walking
tour. The Island is open from 10
a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
For people unable to walk
because of medical reasons, a
courtesy van,is available that will
take them to a number of the
most interesting sites. There are
no set times for tours and
reservations. Except for large
groups they are not necessary.
There are ono concessions on the
Island .and automobiles, except
for certain vehicles used by the
official treasure hunters, are
banned. In the nearby com-
munities of Western Shore,
Chester, Mahone Bay, Lunen -
burg, and Bridgewater, motels,
campgrounds, restaurants etc.
are plentiful. This part of Nova
Scotia, known as the South Shore,
is a delightful part of the country
to drive and visit. The scenery
includes rugged seacoast,
numerous beautiful rivers such
as LaHave, Medway, Mersey and
Roseway, picturesque towns like
Peggy's Cove and inland
woodlands and lakes.
War criminal caught
after hiding 30 years
A 56 -year-old Dutch war
criminal, Jacobus Philippa,
who was sentenced to death in
absentia for torturing mem-
bers of the Dutch resistance,
was arrested recently after
hiding in his parents' house in
The Hague for nearly 30
years.
He will present a petition
for mercy and because the
death penalty has since been
abolished in Holland, he prob-
ably will be sentenced to life
imprisonment with possibility
of an early parole.

order to line up this bevy •of attractive •giris.. Freeport, in the ,
Bahamas, attracts people, of all ages whO enjOy the, good We "
because it is a centte for glamour and excitement- with clubs,
discotheques and casinos. With these diversions, the city lures
more than Its share of pretty girls„lo can he evidenced bypboto.
No history m Freeport
but night e is good
1UREEPORT, Grand Bahama
Island - "You -can never
really get used to it," com-
plained the eanadian bachelor
who actually. lives in this
Bahamian resort town located
some 80 miles south of Florida .
and 150 miles north of Nassau,
capital city of the Bahamas.
He wasn't referring to the
warmth of the year-round sun-
shine. With tongue-in-cheek,
the young man was describing
the abundance of good-looking
girls who arrive in Freeport
daily from Canada and the
United States.
"I've been working here for
six months," he said, "but you
just can't take youi\ eyes off
these girls - in fact, it's tough
conantrating on work when
you can see them by the pool
or on the beach from the office
window."
And indeed, it's no accident
that young people (or older
folks who enjoy the good life)
like Freeport. There's no pre-
tense about going to Freeport
for history, the past or old
world charm. The city doesn't
have any of these ingredients, -
but it is truly a centre for
glamour and ' action -packed
excitemekit. Canadians 'must
enjoy this type- of vacation,
because almost 50 per cent of
4isitors to Freeport are from
Canada.
While beaches, crystA-clear
water and sunshine are the
attractions during the day,
Freeport becomes a roost for
night -owls after dark.. The city
is in motion from sundoWn to
sun -up, and seems to get its
second wind after midnight.
With all , the glitter -sur-
rounding Freeport, some
pie looking for a quiet vacation
might be scared off. But the
builders of - Freeport, which
really opened for tourist traffic
less than a decade ago, had
the foresight to build ,in other
attractions. For example, as
with all of the Bahamian is-
lands, white . sand • beaches
aboiind. And there are • six
18 -hole . championship golf
courses on Grand Bahama
Island, including the Bahama
Reef Country Club; the Eme-
rald and Ruby 'courses at the
King's Inn & Country Club;
and Grand Bahama Hotel and
Country Club (West End). As
for water sports, there is the
usual fare of swimming, snor-
keling, sailing and fishing.
