Mathie- son, MBE, CD, handed over com- mand of RCAF Station Clinton to Group Captain K. R. Green- away, CD, at a ceremony on the parade square Tuesday. G/C Mathieson leaves RCAF Station Clinton to join the staff of Northern Norad headquar- ters at North Bay, Ont, North- ern Norad is a region of the North American Air Defence Command. G/C Mathieson has had many years of experience in air defence operations, hav- ing served on the staffs of both the RCAF and USAF Air De- fence Commands as a telecom. munications specialist. Prior to going to Clinton in August 1960, he was engaged in the planning and design of air de- fence systems at Air Force Headquarters. Ottawa. An internationally recognized authority on aerial navigation with a number of research awards to his credit, he has served for the past four years as Officer Commanding the RCAF Central Navigation School at Winnipeg. Group Captain Greenaway was born in Mariposa, Ontario, on April 8, 1916, was educated in Toronto and joined the Roy- al Canadian Air Force in May, 1940. After graduating as a wire- less operator, he was made an instructor and served in this capacity for two years until he transferred to the navigator - wireless operator branch. On completion of his training in navigation he was sent to the Central Navigation School, Riv- ers, Manitoba, as a staff in- structor. He served throughout the war•on instructional duties. Does Experiments During the winter of 1945-46, G/C Greenaway was attached to the U.S. Navy to take part in experimental pressure pattern flights over the North Atlantic and was co-author of a report on this type of flying for which he has received a commenda- tion from the U.S. Navy, For the next two yearshe was associated with the USAF, Carrying o u t experimental flights over the polar regions. In the spring of 1946, G/C Greenaway was one of the navi- gators aboard the first U.S. military aircraft to fly over the North Geographic Pole. In 1947, in association with Mr. J. W. Cox, a Defence Re- search Board scientist, he de- veloped the RCAF's Twilight Computer, a navigation aid for use in high latitudes. This computer is also used by the RAF and USAF. Late in 1948, G/C Greena- way was seconded to the scien- tific staff of the Defence Re- search Board to work on Arctic aviation problems, serving in this capacity until 1954. Dur- ing this 'period he carried out many special duties, including lectures at the RCAF Staff College, Toronto, and the Na- tional Defence College, King- ston, and preparation of num- erous reports on high latitude navigation. In addition, he continued to carry out experimental flights in the polar regions making two or three flights a year over the North Pole. In September 1954 he went to the U.S. on exchange duty with the USAF Strategic Air Command to work on naviga- tion problems associated with jet bombers. He made many flights in both B47 and B52 aircraft. Discovers 'Island After serving two years with the USAF, G/C Greenaway was transferred to RCAF Headquarters for a tour of duty• in the Directorate of Air Plans and Programs.

He was transferred to Winni- peg in August 1959 to take up the post of Officer Command- ing the RCAF Cential Naviga- tion School. G/C Greenaway is co-author of "An Aerial Reconnaissance of Arctic North America," pub- lished in 1948; author of "Arc- tic Air Navigation," published in 1951 and used as a text by the RCAF and other air forces as well as commercial airlines; co-author of "Arctic Canada From The Air", an aerial geo- graphy of the Canadian far north, published in 1956.

Seeding Time Important For Winter Wheat Many Ontario Winter grain crops have been lost in the last two of three winters because of late fall seeding, according to the Crops Science Depart- ment of the Ontario Agricul- tural College, Guelph. The time of seeding is important. It ,has been found that October seed ings of winter wheat do not have enough time to grow be- fore winter and thus are sub- ject to `winterkill.' Too early seeding should also be avoided due to the Hesian Fly prob- lem. Winter barley planting is ev- en more critical. In the Guelph area it should be seeded from the 10th to the 15th of Sep- tember. 1f seeding is done be- fore the 7th, the crop gets too much top growth, and often smothers. Seeding after the 20th of September does not give the plants enough fall growth and winter kill is more. likely. Farmers should check seeding dates for their area with their county agricultural repre- sentative. Choose the right variety! Genesee, Kent, Richmond, Ri- deau and Talbot are all recom- mended for this falI's seeding of winter wheat. Genesee. and Talbot give similar yields, but Talbot 'has superior lodging re- sistance. Richmond is consid- ered to be fore winter hardy. than Genesee or Kent. Rideau, however, is the most winter - hardy variety in Ontario. Winter barley varieties as yet are adapted only to the most southern Zones 1 and 2 and some parts of Zones 3 and 4. Check with your agricultural re- presentative to see if you are in one;of these areas. Winter bar- ley varieties grown in Ontario are Hudson and Dover. They have similar disease resistance and winter hardiness. Dover has better straw strength, bet- ter threshability and higher yield potential. A proven seeding rate for winter wheat is 114 to 2 bushels per acre, More than 2' bushels results in lodging. Winter bar- ley seeded at 11/2 to 2 bushels 'per acre gives top yields. Seed treatment is cheap in- surance against seed borne dis- eases and some root rot organ- isms. If the.seed is not already treated, make arrangements to have it done before planting day. Most pedigreed seed is treated before being sold. When it is, the information should be on the tag.

Writes Winning Fair Essay Stephen Brady wrote the fol- lowing winning essay in the re- cent fall fair competition: Work, fun and satisfaction all combine to produce the biggest event of the year. It is. none other than our annually held fall fair. Ever since Grade One I have attended the jubilee and I am thrilled at the thought of a new and better program each year. It also means a holiday from school too. The gratifying feeling of beating the other person in a competition compels one to pro- duce better products. This is of importance to our commun- ity because this feeling not on- ly last's until fair time, but all through the year. Thus we oh- tain better products to eat, buy and sell. Working to make our fair a success requires the co-opera- tion of everyone. Groups or committees are formed to look after different sections of the fair. Teamwork is the key to the whole project and this helps throughout the year in other schemes. After the fair is over there is also a sense of pride in our comiliunity in hav- ing accomplished our objec- tive. It is only once a year that the people get to see the talents of other townsmen. 'The baking, sewing and many other items are on display, so that we may see just what our, town can do and the skills of ouir people. It seems there is at one time or another nothing to do. But at the fair you can learn new hobbies and crafts to take up your spare time. To our town it may be a help, for it will stop the young mischiefmakers who roam about at night, if they have something to do. One important thing that our fair does is advertise our town. Folks see new products of the merchants and decide that this place would be a nice com- munity in which to shop or live. All in all, the fair does have great importance to our com- munity, and we should strive to build it bigger and better until it is the best.
