CANADA TOp JOIN IN
ATLANTIC PACT TALKS
In a cryptic two-sentence paragraph
the Department of External Affairs
announced recently Canada's accept-
ance of the invitation of the United
StateS to participate in multilateral dis-
cussions which spell the first move
toward a North Atlantic alliance. The
conference opened last week in Wash-
ington with Canadian Ambassador
Hume Wrong and Canadian Under-
Secretary of State Lester B. Pearson
in attendance.
Thus was begun the charting of a
pattern for American and Canadian
political and' military support of the
recently organized Western European
Union. Every indication was that the
problems would be explored thorough-
ly over a periodof months before de-
cisions were reached. The European
countries represented at the conference
are Great Britain, France, Belguim,
The' ;Netherlands and Lut.empourg,.

'SENSATIONAL CLUTCH
,INVENTION
In this ineel.anical age when so many
peopjle own or drive cars, tractors,'
boats or planes, any improvement in
a clutch is welcome news indeed. Now
' a magnetic fluid 'clutch has been in-
vented that can be used in automobiles
trucks, ,Iracters, airplanes, ships, tanks,
range finders, gun directors, printing
presses, all kinds of power machinery,
sawmills, guided missiles, and any
other machine in which power has to
be harnessed and guided.
Like most basic inventions, the
magnetic fluid clutch is a masterpiece
of simplicity. The ends of the driving,
and driven 6barts are faced witlepara-
liel magnetic steel plates and the space
between them is filled with iron pow-
der suspended in oh A coil energized
by an electric current sets up a :nag
netic field between the two plates as
desired.
When the current is 'off and there
is no magnetic field, the driving shaft
can spin at full speed without bud
gin its partner. Turn the 'current on
and up to sufficient ttrength ,and. the'
magnetized iron particles will clamp
the two shafts together as strongly as

WINGHAM MUST KEEP IN
STEP WITH THE TIMES
Apropos of Old-Timer's letter in
our last issue we most heartily agree
that a great revival from a sporting
standpoint is needed in this town.
We re-iterate former assertions in this
column when we state that Wingham
should rebuild and once more operate
annually the race course and fall fair.
Much good ,business and community
prestige as ,well as sporting and social
pleasure, are lost to this town because
this present generation of \Vingham-
ites is in a sporting slump.
And we use the word slump in-
tentionally because, as Old-Timer
points out, this town used to be in the
forefront in most athleic sports, Front
real oltl-timers we have often heard
of the athletic prowess of Wingham's
sons anti daughters prior to the turn
of the century, and since that time ti-t'
have been, more or less, a participant
and observer in local spurting activi
ties. Facts are facts, and until recent
years Winginun was always notel as
one of the finest sporting towns in
Canada,
The cause of Wingham's slump in
most athletic and sporting events may
be summed up in one phrase, vfailure
to keep step with the times," This
town has been forced to drop out of
high-class baseball or hard ball, be-
cause we have no suitable park in
which to play the game, In days gone
by, our present athletic park served
that purpose acceptably, but times
have changed. Since the advent of the
livelier baseball this park has been
much too small, hence our advocacy
for a new and larger athletic park at
the southeast end of j usephine,street.
Softball has its place and the present
park is an acceptable playing field.
There should always be softball clubs
in town to allow older, younger and
less talented ball players to play ball,
The advent of softball here a few years
ago did just that and it definitely has
its place on the sporting calendar,
But the real American and Canadian
game is baseball or hardball, and
Wingham just hasn't the facilities to
produce baseball players, as it did in
the past.
Similarly this town cannot produce
high-class hockey, until we have z.n
artificial ice surface to extend the
playing season here, In the past Wing-
ham provided its athletes with a park
and a rink suitable for the times, and
this town was the home of many fine
teams and athletes. This town needs
a great sporting revival to give our
athletes of today a chance to compete
on even terms with other centres.
