Heavy ship Norman
McLeod Rogers :.
breaks up lake ice
The powerful icebreaker.CCGS
"Norman. McLeod Rogers" has
been ordered to the Upper Lakes,
to break ships loose which have
been,ice-hound in harbours by late
. -winter conditions.
__ Early reports on 'ice
conditions,' based on ' aerial
surveys,.indicatedthat there was
a great deal of open water on the
Great Lakes, but investigation on
the spot. by borings with ice
augers and with early operations.

strongwinds from 70 to 80 'miles
an hour during the winter had
piled win-drowed ice into
restricted areas. The prevailing
westerly \ inds windrowed the ice

,end of Lake Erie; at Goderich,,, in
• Lake Huron: at Owen Sound and
. Midland in Georgian Bay:at Cove
Island and Flowerpot Island, at
the entrance to Georgian Bay: and
at Whitefish Bay, above Sault Ste.

The smaller icebreakers

Transport, the "Griffon" frorn
Prescott and the :'Alexander

where these smaller ships 'clave

entire Georgian Bay,.
The —Norman McLeod
Rogers" is working then way up
from Quebec, and will be in Sarnia -
on April 13. The ship Will be under
the direction of the Parry Sound N
Marine Agency, Headquarters for
Marine Services from Sarnia to
Saskatchewan, while she is on the
Upper Lakes.
The '"Rogers" is 290 feet in
length, with a draft of 19 feet, and
abeam of 60 feet, She ordinarily
operates at 12,000 HP, but she is
unique among all the'icebreakers
in the world because of the fact
she is fitted with gas turbine
engines, which maybe used in the
heavy going of ice breaking, to
develop a total of -16.000,11P. The
ship is thus eminently suited for
the task of icebreaking on the
Upper Lakes.'The ship.will break
out Goderich, Owen Sound,
Collingwood, Midland. and Port
McNicoll, after which she ;will
proceed to the Lakehead to assist
the "Alexander - Henry;' in
breaking 'out ,the Thunder Bay,
Harbour..
The "Alexander Henry" has
already broken out most of the
harbour at the Lakehead. and
commercial ships are expected to
operate -there with the departure
of the "D.C.Everest ' either
today or tomorrow, and with the
arriyal of the grain carrier_
. "Frank A. Sherman" of the Upper
Lakes and St. Lawrence Fleet on
April 14,
across Canada.
Processing is comprised of
four separate stages: evaluation.
analysis, pre -selection and final
approval. -The number of projects
is reduc-ed during each stage of
processing.

take place in the period between

, - The average woftian—seized
with decorating fever and thinking
about buying a couch—may 'brood
'about its, upholstery and agonize
over three or four fabrics. But'
there's one woman who looks at
thousands.of upholstery fabrics
,every year and loves it, She's.
LoisScoville. stylist for a,major.
furniture company -which -
manufactures convertible sofas.
As Mrs. Scoville describes it;
, her job is to screen the entire
ketevery yearand
shop for a wide variety of samples
to suit all tastes and "situations."
(The fabrics she gathers ,range
from tweeds to jacquard pattern's .
to prints.) -
"I have to choose those," she.
says: "which will please the eye
and still'hold up under the wear-
and=tear of daily living."
The stylist also works closely
with her,. c'ompany's furniture
designers "to make sure the right
fabric goes on the right piece of
furniture.;" ••
A key aspect of Mrs. Scoville's
job is anticipating trends in home
furnishing colors and styles.
When collecting fabric sathples,
she must keep in mind only what's
anticipated for next year, 'but
geographical- difference in t4 to
as well. The customer's
preference, Mrs. Scoville has
learned, is determined to a large
extent by the region in which she
lives,
According to the stylist, the
east coast is ``cosmopolitan and
sophisticated" in its tastes, the
west coast is characterized by an
"easier, more casual way of
life,': and the central .United
States favours more "traditional
and unsophisticated" styling.
However, big cities throughout
the country do 'sharesimilar
tastes,•she .adds, ,
Lois Scoville, who. was born and
raised, near .Chicago,
acknowledges- '.that her•.
midwestern origins have affected
'her own personal tastes. ,
• • I do like, traditional
furniture,': she declares,
.--'aitirougir I like ttt—cliee -
colors too."
A simple way, 'tointroduce
brightness into the home, she
points out, is by selecting carpets
and drapes in an "adjustable
neutral shade," then'adding color'
accents through more expendable
items such. as pillows. wall*
hangings, etc.
"-Since these are relatively
inexpensive,,' she 'notes. -"you',
can always change ' them frorr'r
time to time."
According to Mrs. Scoville, her
'company's hide ,a -bed sofa not
''only reflects current coast-to-
coast trends -in decorating, but
tends to embody today's. life
styles and bridge the generation
gap as Well.
"Young people in their first
apartment," she comments, "are
useally cramped for space and
need a couch that will double as a
bed.':
As for mature ,couples, "they
often move to smaller quarters
when -their chilren leave home
and need extra sleeping space
When those children come back to
visit. -

important to teeth
When your baby is born, deep in
his jawbotaes are the 20 primary
teeth which began to form early in
pie -natal life. At birth the crowns
of the primary teeth are almost
t oinpletely formed. Shortly
before 'birth the enamel of the
first permanent (six year) molars
. have begun to form.
The* central incisors in the
front:ofthe mouth are the first to
erupt.. IThually this ,occurs when
the baby. is from six to. eight i
months Of age. The lower teeth
usitally'erupt, before the
correspdiidirig teeth tri the upper
jaw. Your child. should have all of
his primary teeth by the tithe he is
twoand a half to three years old
Tire 1pPpearanCe of eaeti' of his
teeth nrtarks a stage in your baby's
development. `T'eething is a -
natural process. although at

normal part of teething. If a child
appears to be ill, he should be'
takento a physician to determine
the cause, '
A baby's jaws are only partially
developed at birth. They continue
to grow throught childhood and
into addllescence,m Good,—
nourishing food is necessary for
this growth and development. The
breast milk of a mother who is
following a proper diet is the t1eSt
baby food available:
Because a baby's• jaws like
other parts of his body, develop
through use, solid food should be.
given to him as early as
the
p'hyan suggests.

score according to how. many of
twenty positive criteria it meets.
The criteria are grouped under
four different headings: youth
-involvement, comrnunity'benefit,'
feasability and innovation.
At 'the third stage of,
processing, remaining .projects '
are grouped according to region=
and are studied by a committee of

the L par•tnlent of the Secretary
of Stater For each region,
consideration is given to factors
-such as the total number of jobs
created, the cost per job, and the
age aiid sex of participants. The
committee also assesses the
relative value of each project' in
relation to the demographic,
economic and geographic
characteristics of the region: In
addition, consideration is.given to
maintaining a balance between
recreational', social; cultural,
information, research m and
