Fraser Shows Slides on Japan To Officers' Wives On Tuesday evening, April 6, the Officers' Wives' Club met in the Chapel Annex, RCAF Station Clinton. Major E. D. Fraser, Dental Officer for RCAF Station Clinton, kindly presented coloured slides and gave a very interesting and informative lecture on "Miya Jima, A Sacred Island of Japan", located near the Island of Hiro- shima. On the sacred island, Miya Jima, meaning Mountain of Heroes, life is not supposed to have beginning or end. If a child is to be born the mother is rushed to the main- land for the birth—if someone is dying, they are rushed to the mainland. The slides also included pictures of rice planting in Japan as well as pictures from Korea. Fifteen years ago only five per cent of men with cancer of the prostate gland survived five years. Modern treatment has increased that figure to almost 30 per cent. Vl Y TO 2 Fll[UO:/ CAis'AOIANS FIL — the fixer ... his .:full name is Farm Im- provement Loan.

J47 Jet Presented To ='- CAF On '30th Birthday This week a J-47 jet engine, similar to the type used in the F-86 Sabre, was presented to the Royal Military College, Kingston, Ontario, by the RCAF. To be studied in the Thermo Dynamic Section of the Mechanical Engin- eering Laboratory by student cadets of the three services, this is the first time such an engine has appeared in a Canadian Un- iversity. On hand for the presentation ceremonies was Brigadier D. R. Agnew, commandant of the col- lege; Air Vice Marshal C. R. Dun- lap, .Commandant of National De- fence College, representing the RCAF; and the senior -year stud- ents from the college. Said Brig. Agnew: "It is a hap- py coincidence that the installa- tion of this jet engine coincides with he thirtieth anniversary of the organization of the RCAF. The engine was given to"the Roy- al oyal Military College of Canada by the RCAF to be used for instruct- ional purposes. 'RMC provided one of the or- iginal officers of the Rbyal-Flying Corps more than 50 years ago and many distinguished pilots of the First Great War ex -cadets of this College: The cadets here this morning are a mixed group of Army, Navy and Air Force engineering stud- ents.. Some of them are qualified pilots who are studying electrical or mechanical engineering. A few are chemical engineers who are particularly interested in the fuels and lubricants used in jet propul- sion. Others will be engineer of- ficers of the .Army or Navy, 2 or we are not merely training the pilot officers'of today at the Royal Military College of Canada, but the Air Marshals, Generals and Admirals of tomorrow," You coot q® ALIA F you Feel ALL 1 N' These days most people work under pressure, worry more, sleep less.

Centralia had one consolation, however, for it was their player AW Jenkins who took Clinton in the ladies' singles and F/C Nasi showed Clinton up in the men's singles. Much to the dismay or all pres- ent, the tournament was unable to continue after the men's and ladies' doubles for time was run- ning out and mixed doubles were out of the question. Compensat- ion was made by way of a delic- ious lunch served to all players and, officials after the game. F/O Carr, in charge of the Cen- tralia players, expressed his than- ks on behalf of his team for an enjoyable and very pleasant even- ing. Summery of Line-ups:' Ladles' Singles Clinton: E. Raab, V.

Russia made such a'withdrawal quite m-. conceivable, by the simple process of defeat- ing the Canadian team, in one of the great sports upsets of all time. For this was Rus- sia's first entry into these championships, the quality of the Soviets was held in light esteem, and so the defeat was all. the more stunning, all the more calculated to provide Moscow's propaganda machine with rich material for sounding the glory of the Soviet athletes. Under these circumstances, suffering from one of the most humiliating defeats inflicted upon its forces in the game at which these Dominions in reality rule the world, Canada can- not possibly retire until a day of reckoning has extinguished the fires of arrogant bluster which this triumph is certain to set alight in the Soviet press. For retirement at this point would be rated as sheer defeatism, and indeed it would be very difficult, practically impossible, to convince other European nations that Canada's supremacy in its greatest sport had not been taken over by Russia. And, what is much more important from the stand- point of national pride, it might be even more difficult to convince the world that Canada had huffily taken the childish, unsportsmanlike attitude: "If we can't win, we won't play" It has been said, in view of the public's unfavourable. attitude towards the club, Canada should quit this synthetic world series; synthetic, that is, in its title qualities, though definitely real in the number of competing nations. Quit? That's not in Canada's sports lexicon. We've never been quitters nor cry-babies in any competitive sport. And if • can ada quits now, in defeat, those aro the stigmas that will be hung upon us, nationally. What champion doesn't get an unfavourable reception when he invades foreign soil? Did those advocating Canada's withdrawal ever hear the Detroit Red Wings cheered in, say, Toronto or Gordie Howe applauded when he invades the domain of his rival, Rocket Richard? The jeers, in such cases, and in Canada's overseas - hockey ease too, are real tributes to greatness. Anyone can get cheers at home. Jack Dempsey was one of the most un- popular figures in ringdom while he was champion. Thousands rooted regularly for his defeat. Dempsey went out fighting, and so turned mob dislike to fanatic hero-worship. Canada can do the same. If we're' going to retire, let's do so as champions, not in the face of defeat, inflicted by an under -rated opponent.
