BRUCE mkrawNsoN HAS A
reassuring note in his column
published'. in the Financial Post:
"Another day when Ottawa writh-
ed, and reeled and emitted faint,
painful noises.; another day when
the teletypes clicked and the
headlines rolled' off the presses;
another day when the rivers :,ran
as they have always, run, trees
grew; seeds sprouted, the treas-
ure of the ancient rocks' 'waited
intact AS from the beginning of
time; another day when Canada,
from ground level, was gripped by
sound and fury, signifying noth-
ing, but, from' the 'perspective of
three vertical miles (aboard Vis-
count plane) lay serene, secure,
in all essentials immutable, and
far stronger . than the angry men
of Ottawa suppose.

Impaired Driving
Fine Of $50 On
Bayfield Driver
With few cases before the Court
Magistrate D. r. Holmes, on' Tees-
day fined James McGee, Hayfield,
$50 and costs• for impaired driving
in connection with an accident
which took place on April 27 at
the Bannockburn Bridge near Var-
na.
Roy Bellinger, conservation of-
ficer had found the accused lying
in the centre of the road, con-
scious but asking not to be moved,
at about 10.30 o'clock. He had
stopped the next vehicle to come
by and asked the driver to remain
so that no one would run over the
injured man, and had himself gone
'to notify police and phone- for an
ambulance,
Constable Parkinson, OPP, God-
etch, arrived at the scene at 11.10
pen. and both he and Bellinger
testified that the man smelled
strongly of alcohol.
Dr, J. A. Addison, who testified to
the man's condition after he reach-
ed Clinton hospital that evening,
was convinced that he was drunk.
The patient said that he was' un-
able to move his legs, and he was
gotten with difficulty into bed at
the hospital. Reflexes tested nor-
mally, though sluggish, and he was
kept in hospital until morning
when he 'was recovered enough to
be released.
McGee had been thrown from
his car onto the road, after strik-
ing three guy wires, breaking three
more, and the car coming to rest
against the side of the road. He
suffered cuts and abrasions to the
face,
Counsel, for the defense was
James Donnelly, Q.C., Goderich.
A charge of failing to stop when
entering King Street, on May 20,
was heard against E. Evelyn How-
ard, Toronto, and on evidence
given by Chief Constable H. R.'
Thompson, a conviction was made
and fine of $7 and costs was ord-
ered. The accused is a resident of
Toronto.
