By BARRYMURKAR _..-z:-
By now, some of"you will,
have
heard the fatal news. For those of
)'ou who haven't, May •We sug-
gest yott find a nice easy chair,
before reading the rest 'of this.
"those nice salaries you have beck
receiving for your summer job
are 0 thing oft the past — as of
now. Yes, as much as it hurts, it's
trues The official report is out.
And that .report is to the effect
that hundreds of employers are
now re -placing teenel'S with ex -
servicemen, and civilians who had
svar jobs, and are now out of
work. The old days are gone
when junior came home flashing
a roll equal to his pop's weekly
stipend. Next summer,the em-
ployers inform us, there will he
far fewer jobs
for teenage kids
and where there'.
are, the money
will
be much,
less than it has
been. Tough as
it may seem, 1
(tope you really
didn't believe
that "all this and heaven too,"
would last forever. Here's hoping
you made the best of the free-
for-all while it lasted.
Camera Clubs, Popular
Since the war, we have noted
with interest that photography is
fast becoming a popular hobby of
the middle -man, Young people as
well
are taking g a decided inser-
est in shooting this and that.
(Not to be taken literally). We
used to think that photography
was for the roan with money; 'but
in the past few years, it has been
pointed out that good pictures
can be taken with an inexpensive
camera, The secret lies in the
knowhow, Booklets for a few
eents can be obtained anywhere,
telling you how to get the most
from your camera whether. it be
a small box job or a speciai
streamlined affair with all the
gadgets. Camera clubs are be-
' coining very popular across the
line. Many teen clubs have them.
A gang gets together on a Satur-
day afternoe,n anti goes out tak-
ing pictures, By pooling their fi-
naitcial resources, they can set up
their own dark -room, complete
with developer, printer and en-
larger, .Any member of the club
can make use of the fa.:ilities for
only a few cents. This is a sug-
gestion for your fall program, if
you have nt t already thought of
it.
Nice , , . Very Nice
Mary Waters, higir sato%rl stu-
dent at Mount Forest, will have
little trouble With dates this term.
The reason: Mary walked off
with the title of "Miss Mount
Forest" at the recent beauty con-
test held up there. She defeated
15 other eontestants, Nice going,
Mary, We have just been looking
at Mary's picture, and can easily
understand why she won. This re-
minds us of a story a few weeks
back of the boy in au eastern On-
tario town, who dressed up like
a girl, hent in the local beauty
contest and won first prize, IIe
was given the title of Miss -what-
ever the name of the place was—
and no utle knew until after the
contest that the beauty -queen was
a 15 -year -nits boy,
Flying High
Marilyn house, 17 -year-old
student at Danforth. Tech. is go-
ing places in the flying world.
She has the distinction of being
the youngest girl in the Wings
Club, fraternal organization form-
ed by aviation students and pri-
vate pilots operating from Bark-
er Field, Toronto, She liked fly-
ing so much, she has taken a job
with an aviation company. Her
next goal in flying, is to obtain
her private' pilot's license. Apart
from flying, Marilyn likes Swim-
ming and reading. Some day she
hopes to own and operate her
own plane. We hope she makes
the grade.
Our Interview
As we mentioned souse time ago,
we plan from time to time to have
a column which will be headed,
"Our Interview," Here we hope
to present a newsy and off -hand
chat with people you have all
heard or read about, The first one
will appear next week. \Ve have
chosen for our first interview, a
lovable sort of character, who
is known all across Canada. We
are referring to the famous Cana-
dian writer, Gregory Clark. Greg
has long been associated with Jiiu 1
Frise, the cartoonist and we think
that you will find our first inter-
view, interesting and we hope in-
formative. If you have others, you
would like us to meet for you,
drop a line to this column and
we'll do what we can:

the woman say. A few minutes later

Sports — And One Thing
or Another
13y FRANK MANN HARRIS
("A Sixbit Critic")
Quito an interesting discussion
slight be built around the question
1
"Just which type of sportsfan is the
screwiest?" There have been times
when we would have been prepared
to 'argue strongly in favor of the
horse -racing addict;- while your
dyed-in-the-wool hockey follower is
never to held too lightly, and neither
is your rabid baseball bug. Still,
after considerable thought, the have
come to the conclusion that, other
things being equal, the football en-
thusiast tops them all.

happened to run into shortly after'

"There ought to be a law'" he ex-
claimed, slopping his streaming
brow, "The very idea. of playing
football in this krill of weather—
making folks svelter in the hot
bleachers while the guys on the field
can barely, go throng•', the motions.
Yes, there ought to be a law, or
something."

"If that's hale you feel about it,"
we 'suggested, "why don't we just
Bind some quiet, air-conditioned spot
and spend the afternoon there?"

Our friend started at us in genuine
amazement."You mean not go to
the game at all?" he gasped, "You
must be even crazier than usual to
taik such nonsense—so get ;a dnove

More and More we marvel at the

One, of the funniest of all-time
sports happenings has beer the rapid
rise el Primo Carrera" lo great

surprising is his continued stay at
those heights.

Toward the cud of the last foot-
ball season we went overboard with
the statement that Joe Krol was the
greatest all-round player that has
ever performed on a Canadian grid-
iron. We see no reason to revise, or
apologize for, this opinion; but we
dowish that some kind friend would
send Mr. Krol a copy of that once -
popular song: entitled, "It isn't What
You Lysed to Be, But What You Are
Today," As one onlooker commented
on his way out of Varsity Stadium
after the Alouettes ganic, "Krol
piays as if he had been doing most
of his training reading his scrap-
books."

Flying Ship
The Stockholm radio reported
completion of trials in a Swedish
flying boat which is 11311 ship,
half plane. On reaching a speed
of eight or nine knots the boat's
hull lifts out of the water, only a
part of its stern and two front
floats remaining submerged. Pro-

Powered by a single 8 -horsepower
engine, the Vessel attained a speed
of 24 knots during trials.
