"I think we will have a national flag in Canada before many years," John IvIorrison, of Sarnia, grand master of the Grand Black Chapter of Ontario West, Royal Black Knights of Ireland, told a large gathering March 25, in On- tario Street United Church hall, here. "I have been criticized," he said, "by some who think we should have a distinctive flag, but I feel sure we will continue at least to have the Union Jack on any flag design for this country," The occasion was a reception to the grand master by Huron Sir Knights, their ladies and many friends. The Grand Master was introduc- ed by Sir Knight Oliver Jaques and the reply, was made by Sir Knight Charles Stewart. Mr, Morrison and his wife were presented with a carving set. Ro- bert Hibbert, Ferdwich, past coun- ty master of Huron officiated at the ceremony. The Rev, J. T. White, Londes- boro expressed doubt as to the feasibility of co-existence with communism and drew a parallel between Roman Catholic and pro- testant religions. Master of ceremonies was Max Switzer, Woodham, county mast- er of Huron Black Chapter, Oth- er speakers were Harold Watson, London, deputy grand master of Ontario west; T. R. Elliott, Lon- don, grand lecturer, Ontario west and county master of Middlesex; Oliver Jacques, grand lecturer of Ontario west; Dr. A. F. Cooper, Toronto, (former student at Clin- ton Collegiate Institute) deputy grand master of the Grand Black Chapter of British America; Will- iam Campbell, county master, North Huron LOL, and Borden Brown, county master South Hur- on LOL. Mr, Watson made an appeal for consideration of older members. "In our order," he said, "we should honor our senior members for the effort they have given to the or- ganization." Included in the program were solos by Mrs. Clayton Hodgins, "Bless This House," and "The Old Rugged Cross." A piano instrum- ental was played by Mrs. Jack VanEgmond. Rev. Giant Mills spoke briefly. The Very Worshipful Sir. Knight Walter Scott thanked the Com- mittee of the Woman's Associa- tion of the church, headed by Mrs. J. B. Lavis, for their work in catering for the dinner. 0 MIDDLETON (By Mrs. S. Middleton) Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Grindley, London, spent the Easter weekend with David Middleton.

Exeter Jury Decides Fatal Fall From Car 'A jury investigating the death of LAC Allan George Lockie, who died. March II when he fell from a moving car on highway 4, de- cided "death was accidental and entirely due to Lockie's actions", The jury added: "Previous con- sumption of alcohol may have been a factor in the death". Inquest was held Wednesday afternoon, March 25, in Exeter town hall with Coroner Dr. J. G. Goddard, Hensall, presiding. H. G. Hays, QC, Goderich, con- ducted the hearing. LAC Lockie fell out of a car travelling from Hensall to Cent- ralia in the early morning. The accident happened one mile south of Hensall. Cpl, James W. Blackburn, driv- er of the car, said Lockie, LAC A. J. McCoy and himself had gone to Hensh-arena to curl and then went to the liensall Legion where they talked, played euchre and drank a few beers. Blackburn said he had four pints between the time he arrived at .9.30 and left at 1 a.m. The beer was pur- chased from the Legion bartend- er, Leonard Noakes. They gave Lawrence Baynham; Hensall, who locked up the Legion hall, a ride home before starting down No, 4 for Centralia. Blackburn said he did not see Lockie fall out of the car. The first thing he knew was McCoy saying, with urgency, "George jumped out of the car!" Blackburn said he hadn't noticed Lockie was gone because he was concentrating on driivng; it was, a very cold night and the defrost- er wasn't warmed up yet. He . said he did not see the door open and didn't realize Lock- ie was gone until he stopped the car and looked over.' As soon as the car stopped, he put it in reverse and was about to back up when he thought he might back over Lockie so he pulled off to the side of the road and followed McCoy back to where Lockie was lying on the shoulder. He then went to Exeter for help, He said Lockie had not been showing any out of the ordinary effects of liquor. Lockie liked an argument and had had several at the Legion. He had not noticed that Lockie felt sick to his sto- mach, LAC Andrew J. McCoy, who was sitting in the centre of the front seat, said all he saw was the seat of Lockie's pants going out the, door. He fell out of the car facing north-west. He confirmed that Lockie was a bit argumentive by nature, Dr. John Penistan, provincial pathologist, said cause of death was cerebral hemorrhage due to fracture of skull. Death came in a matter of seconds, he estimated. He also noted abrasions on back, shoulder and face. Cloth- ing was torn around shoulder. He did not think that, from his con- dition, he had opened the car door to vomit The alcoholic content showed about eight or nine pints during the evening. Leonard Noakes, Hensall, test- ified the group was jovial but not overly so; there was no Signs of drunkenness, The men were not Legion members, he said, but me mbers of a group to which Hens- all, Legion sells beVerages. Cpl, Erskine, of the identifica- tion branch of the OPP, said the exterior of the car showed no signs or marks of blood, flesh, Every. year volunteer inerobers of the Canadian fled 'Croat Corps drive over 200,000 miles in, the pursuit of their many community projects. Centralia Airman's Was Accidental fibre or anything to indicate it had been in contact with a human being. There was no sign of a struggle. Constable George Mitchell, who investigated the accident, said the breath of both men smelled of alcohol but he saw no sign of impairment. He noticed that the, car door scraped against the frame when it was opened or closed and it didn't swing too easily. The con- stable said he could not open it by throwing his body against it. The constable also examined the door handle on Lockie's own car. It opens by pushing up whereas the Blackburn car door opened by pushing down. Jury included Duncan Cooper, RR 2, Kippen; Delbert Geiger, RR 2, Zurich; Theodore Steinback, RR 3, Zurich; Milford Schilbe, Zurich; Alfred Moffat, Kippen. — Exeter Times-Advoeate.,
