McDougall - 52 Years Ago Though students at Clinton District Collegiate Institute are not shining particularly bright upon the football field, they have accredited themselv- es well in track and field events throughout the fall sea- son. For that matter, so have pupils at the public school., There may be interest in for- mer track stars. We recently received clip- pings telling of a Labour Day race in which Norman Mc- Dougall a native of Goderich Township competed. Back in 1909 he ran from St. Marys to Stratford, against a field of 23, in 1.22.15, which translated, we presume means one hour, 22 minutes and 15 seconds. He gained the lead at the Half Way House and never lost it afterwards. Of interest to long distance runners is the feet that the first three miles was done in 18 minutes. This pace was set by Mr. Cornelius, an Indian from Southwold, who ended up seventh in 3..28.30. William McDougall, also of Porter's Hill placed 13th in the race. Norman's win was on a 14 - mile distance, and he cut two full minutes and four seconds from the 'previous record. The same year he competed in a 19.25 mile marathon at Toron- with a well filled parse of money. Presentation address was read by Jack Upshall, and a gift presented by Gerald Bell, Norris orchestra furnish- ed Music for the dance. United WA h e WOrriarl'S Missionary Society of the United Church met Thursday afternoon in the church for their November meeting, Mrs. R. M. Peck, Whose group was in charge, presided. Mrs. S. Ferguson and Mrs. C. L. Jinks conducted the devotional. The 2nd chapter of the study book was reviewed by Mrs. Grate Harpole and Mrs, R, McAllister. Mrs, T. C. Coates sang a pleasing solo, with T, Sherritt accompanist, Slides and a coMmentary oix Korea by tape recording was presented by Mrs, Laird Mickle and Mrs. Peck. The slides and tape recording are Sent by IVIiss Matin Current, their mission- ary for prayer, For the business period presi dent Mrs. E. Rewe presided, A. Motion was passed to send a Christmas gift to Miss Cur- rent, invitations front Bruce - field for November 9, and froin the livening Auxiliary of the thUreli for November 13 were aecepted. Mrs, A. Clark reported for the visiting eorrunittee. Miss M. Mils, and Mrs. W. Dilling submitted interesting highlights of the Presbyterial South See - Hal meeting held at Whalen United Chutth. to coming in fifth among 108 who finished the race. According to an article by Harry Eisen in the September 9, 1944 issue of the London Free Press, Mr. McDougall said: "We ran for the fun of it, not for the money in it. There were no ten dollar hills sticking in our shoes and we didn't pawn our trophies either. I find the athletes of today are inclined to be a wee bit mer- cenary. Instead of playing for the sport, they are, for the most part, out for what's in it for themselves." Mr. McDougall was a barber in London for over 35 years. Now he lives at Porter's Hill, and claims he can still do a mile, although not as fast as 52 years ago. Clippings about this famous man cane to us from Mrs. Alda T. Gray, RR 2, Bayfield, who is a cousin, and formerly a McDougall. In 1960 there was a revival of this road race from St. Marys to Stratford, and Harry Tromp, 1Vlitchell, came first in 1.1,9, but for some reason the distance was only ten miles. Back in 1907 on a 12 mile course the time was 1.24.36, won by Dick Grant and in 1936 Pat 1VIcGowan's time was 1.321.

(By 4.101f C. DIBTRICH) This week I would like to discuss the large Canadian nickel which first came out in 1922. They bad one basic des- ign (the big five) until the end of 1936, then in 1937 the beav- er design was inaugurated, In 1943, 1944, and 1945 the "V" and torch "victory" motif saw service to give boost to the war effort, In 1946 the beaver des- ign returned and is now char- acteristic of all Canadian nick- els. The only commemorative rd- ckel was issued in 1951 a n d marked the 200th anniversary of the isolation of the element nickel. Due to the nickel shortage during the war, some of the 1942 and all of the 1943 five cent pieces were struck in Tonabac, an alloy of 88 percent copper and 12 percent zinc on 12 sided planchets to minimize confusion with bronze cents. The tombacs were not too popular so in 1944 and 1945 they were made of steel and these proved even less popular because they were extremely prone to rust and corrosian. In 1946 they reverted to pure nickel again. This is a pleasant series to collect, because inost of them are relatively easy to come by except the 1925 of which only 201,921 were minted. A consid- erable number of the tombacs were returned to the mint and the rest are being hoarded or are in collector's hands, but they are stili fairly easy to come by. In 1926 there was only 938,162 minted but you can still find one if you look long enough. The 1948 nickel is starting Thursday, Nov, 9, 119611, -,Clinton News,Itieolt4,4004, 9 (Correspondent, MRS. N.

Mrs. John Sinclair, in charge of the wor- ship, took as her theme, to become elusive due to collec- tors taking them out of circu- lation so if you find ane keep it for your collection. The com- memorative nickel of 1951 ap- pears to be rare, but it isn't. Due to some misleading rum- ors most people think they are rare and are hoarding them. There was 9,028,507 minted so this hardly makes them rare. Remember if you have any questions on coins write to Box 28 Clinton in care of myself.
