Oil, Toronto, described bis elation after two of his oompahy's drivers placed first and second in the straight truck clags at the eighth annual Canadian Truck Roadeo 'in Toronto.

Runnerup was Lorne Pennell (right), 33, of Winnipeg, who won :the Manitoba championship earlier in the year in his home province, THUNDERSTORM FEAR DISPELLED ,BY GAMES "A child can be made to forget his fears and • may even become fascinated by the fireworks put on by nature if only his attention is directed to the beauty of the dis- play." This is the opinion of Han: fax weatherman Rube Hornstein, who talks about various aspects of the weather every Sunday on CBC Trans -Canada. Rube says: "A thunderstorm may even be made a guessing game. The children may be asked to point the place in the sky 'where the ext flash• of lightning will occur. Or they may try to estimate the lapse of time between a lightning flash and the subsequent thunder. At any rate, It's invest important for adults to show no fear of the thunderstorm in the presence of children, in order to avoid the pos- sibility of transferring this unde- sirable and needless emotion to them," Wife—"Yo' don't love me any mare. When you see me crying now, you don't ask why." Husband — "I'm awfully sorry, my dear, but these questions have' already cost :me such a lot of money."
