Hilda Brown took the ladies' high single with 312 as well as the high triple with 687. Our pal Merv.

Interview Establishes Facts on sporting Arms Are Canadians in danger of losing some of their historic rights to own firearms, and use them for sport, or other legiti- mate purposes? A sudden outburst of concern expressed in letters, telegrams and telephone calls, from man parts of Canada, has led the WOAA Executive Met Here Sunday The present WOAA execu- tive and two former executive members, George Grant of Pai ley and W. T. Cruickshank of Wingham, met in Wingham on Sunday. The subjects discussed included new agreements, de- tails of the All-Star games, and the O.B.A. annual meeting. It was decided to hold the All-Star games in Hanover and Acton to give fans from all dis- tricts a chance to see the "cream of the Intermediate crop" in action. The OBA annual meeting is being held in Chatham this year, on Friday and Saturday o this week. Four WOAA mem- bers will be in attendance,Presi dent John Crewson; Business Manager and Secretary-Treasu er A. J. Lockridge; Jack Flew- elling of Chesley; and George Wicke of Rostock. Past Presi- dent Jim Inglis of Atwood, an OBA appointee, will also at- tend and he will be seeking election to the executive. Canadian Wildlife Federation to investigate these alleged threats to freedom, held dear to so many Canadians. The answers it has found are quite reassuring. Then how did this current wave of concern develop? In the first place, Canadians are well aware of the many restric- tive proposals made in the U.S. A. following the tragic assassin- ation of President Kennedy. We have become conditioned to the expectation that similar pres- sures might develop in Canada. And it is true that some of the aftermath of the Dallas incident has shown up here. The press has given some space to the statements and writings of those who would have us believe that it is firearms, rather than twist- ed and overwrought human emotions, which cause vio- lence. The press has been at least as generous in publishing more rational expressions of opinion. Into this atmosphere of ex- pectation has been injected a host of misunderstandings and misrepresentations, spread by rumour and by the written word. An interview with senior offic- ials of the Department of Jus- tice has served to establish the facts of the matter. Has the Justice Department received representations sug- gesting further restrictions on firearms, following the unfor- tunate happenings in Dallas? No, none at all, -- but there have been scores of letters pointing out that there would be strenuous opposition to any re- strictive changes it present legislation. Is there a committee now studying those sections of the Criminal Code which prohibit SANDRA SEDDON was one o the local skaters who per formed in a solo number at the ice carnival on Saturda evening. She received a bi hand from the capacit crowd at the rink.—AT Pix. ownership of some types ofwea- pons and require registration to some others? Yes, there is such a committee representing the Justice Department, the R, C. M.P., the Chief Constables Association, and the Depart- ment of National Revenue. It was formed about two years ago to deal with representations made by some law-enforcement agencies. It has not brought for- ward any recommendations, to date, regarding prohibited or registerable firearms; and it has expressed no interest whatever in such sporting arms as rifles and shotguns. The committee has not met since several months prior to President Ken- nedy's death. These facts certainly do not give the impression that there is currently any sinister threat to thetime-honoured tradition of ownership of firearms in Canada. They do show, by the reaction of gun owners to this false al- arm, that any real threat of un- reasonable restrictions would be met by the most strenuous op- position. It is not who is right, but what is right, that is important.
