A high north wind proved quite a detriment to the team trying to buck it, with the result that the visitors took advantage of it to tally their first touch- down in the first quarter. while CDCI was attacking from the south. Anderson scored the major with Hanna converting. Bombers tagged another touch- down on the Redmen in the second quarter, and Elliott com- pleted Wingham's scoring in the third with a rouge. The Redmen let loose with some fine football in the fourth quarter, smashing the visitors back to their awn line.

Electronics Plays Big Part In Future The electronics industry is highly important to the future prosperity of Canada, G/C E. A. D. Hutton, commanding officer, RCAF Station, Clinton, stressed in an address before Clinton Lions Club last week, with sen- ior officers of the Station In at-• tendance as guests. He gave figures to prove its impact on eivllian life. G/C Hutton, who was Intro- duced by F/L C. L. Harding, a member of the Club, and was thenked in behalf of the Club by Dr. R. M. Aldis, declared that in the two months he had spent here, his "feeling of belonging" here had increased all the time. IL. 1G. Winter reported that Scoutmaster Fred Churchill had been confirmed in his post by the Boy Scouts Association. .1. H. Brunsdon reported that the Arena bed been painted, W. C. Newcombe reported for Health and Welfare. F/L Harding re- ported that 'Teen Town was un- der way again as a Lions Club project, with meeting every Fri- day evening in CDCh Technology G/C Hutton said in part: "Science has produced complex machinery for vastly increased production -and equally complex machinery for the destruction of mankind -but has not contributed significantly towards the econom- ic and political problems which their ingenuity has largely creat- ed. As an engineer, may I offer you a few of my humble thoughts on that field I know best - electronics. Electroirics Industry "Now what is electronics? The only easy definition is that any- thing with a vacuum tube in it is electronics. Here is one type of vacuum tube. This small, fragile -looking object is capable of transmitting, detecting and amplifying electric signals and sustains an industry in Canada toddy with a gross value of manufactured products estimated at $200 million annually. "And that is not the whole story. To that $200 million figure should be added an esti- mated $300 million representing the installation, maintenance and operating costs of the electronic equipment manufactured in Can- ada. Ten years ago, electronics barely went beyond radio broad- casting and other forms of elect- rical communication and total Canadian expenditures ,connected SPECIAL SALE ALL WOOL COVERT TOPCOATS This is an outstanding value in Fine Topcoats taken from. our Fall stock. Regular to 49.50 ' SALE PRICE $36.95 Nov. 1 to 10 only Herman's Men's Wear PHONE 224W Aammimosime CLINTON therewith probably did not ex- ceed $50 million annually. In the last decade, with prodigious World War II developments and the expanding industrial uses of electronics, the industry has grown up. It is now the newest giant among front-line defense industries. "While current military pro- duction does not account for more than 20 percent of the total dollar value, this percentage can be ex- pected to increase as our pre- paredness measures progress. In all-out war, defence expenditures on electronics may easily account for 75 percent of the industry's output, representing e dollar val- ue at least twice as great as the whole aviation industry, Spectacular Growth "Even without this military hypodermic, the growth of ,the electronics industry is spectacul- ar. It is on a sort of exponential up -curve that. if steadily sup- ported by sound research, is mathematically certain to show a two to fourfold increase in out- put every ten years. Electronics is not simply broadcasting and television. It is also the basic tool of scientific research, the intricate nerve centre and sens- ory system of industrial power end the fearsome means by which can be developed still more sin- ister weapons of war, "New electronics industries have been springing up, almost on their own. An industry is beginning to grow around the high-speed digital and analogue computers which are used not only for solving the complex mathematical problems in re- search establishments but extend also into the every -day field of business machines. Some firms are now producing radiation de- tection devices for atomic re- search and defence. "industrial use of electronics is multiplying in the fields of con- trol equipment; measuring devices and induction heating. The elect- rical communication field is ex- pending at a tremendous rate largely because of electronics. The number of Canadian comp- anies making "electrical apparatus and supplies" has jumped from 223 in 1945 to more thandouble that number today. It mey be assumed that most of the increase has been in electronics. ' USA Manufactures "So far what statistics I have given havecovered only Canadian industry. But that does not pre- sent the complete picture of what Canada is investing in electronics. We are still dependent upon the output of manufacturers in the United States for about 40 per- cent of the processed content of electronic. equipment made in Canada. While this fact is not attractive dither to the Canadinn manu£actei er or the government planner it is an inevitable result of the inter -locking economies of the two countries, Perhaps in the forseeable future we might raise the Canadian manufactured content to 75 percent, but any further increase in our , time seems unfeasible. It is therefore true to say that the expansion of electronics in Canada depends considerably on industrial trends in the United States. , 0 Hallowe'en Party Big Time for Cubs A Hallowe'en party was held for the Clinton Cubs on Monday night in the basement of Wesley - Willis United Church. Thirty- four Cubs attended, all in cos - Niue, Various games were play- ed to start the evening. A lunch of hot dogs, chocolate milk, ap- ales and candy wes given to the boys. The Cub leaders were ably as- eieted withlunch by Misses Betty Stewart, Thelma Shobbrook, Evelyn MacDonald, Betty and Ferne Potter' end Mrs. Helen Beale, I VALUE OF CTA STRESSED AT CONVENTION (By special reporter) . Ever since 1884 there has been a Huron County Temperance or- ganization working for sobriety. and order, , When looking for a law that was 'designed primarily for the protection of , the youth, The Canada Temperance \Act was. selected, as it covered the entire county, thus having the advant- age of a law covering only an individual municipality. At their County Convention held last week in` Goderich, Dr. W. A. Beecroft, of Wingham, the author of "The Voice of Temperance," appearing in our county papers, stressed the value of the CTA by saying that not one of the many outlets which were authorized by the Ontario License Act, could be issued in Huron County. He made the comparison when bar rooms were on all the im- portant corners of our county and pointed with pride to our improved conditions, The president, C. M. Robert- son, of Goderich, emphasised the fact that the CTA was a good law but like all other laws it must have the cooperation of the citizens and constablesto make it effective, G. A. Shewfelt, Toronto, presi- dent of the Ontario Federation, complimented Huron on t h e splendid work done by the county in the Cause of Temperance. Miss Doris Grierson, Clinton, represented the Young People and told of their plans to secure individual pledges against the use of all forms of intoxicating liquor. Three strong resolutions were passed outlining the ob- jectives for the coming year. The - following officers were elected: Honorary presidents: C. M. Robertson, Goderich; A. T. Coop- er, Clinton; president, C. M. Robertson, Goderich; vice-presi- dents, J, H. Campbell, Benmiller; Roy B. Cousins, Brussels; Mrs. George Johnson, Goderich; secre- tary, W. C. Pearce, Exeter; treas- urer, Frank Howson, Winghem; Educational and Publicity direc- tor, Dr. W. A. Beecroft, Wing - ham; Chairman of Legislation and Law Enforcement, N, W. Trewar-I tha, Clinton. 0 Special Instruction Proves 'Popular The first of a series of instruc- tional evenings was held at Clin- ton Badminton Club in the Town Hall with a large number of be- ginners hi attendance to take ad- vantage of the free instruction be, an expert, Kenneth McNaught, top male player of the Stratford Badminton Club, pleased everyone with his exceptional work; he will be back again every Tuesday evening for the next month. Later, he team- ed with club -mate Jack West in a match against the Clinton Club's top pair, Bob Hale and Graham Jenkins. Happy Doubles Club Holds Good Meeting The Happy Doubles Club met at Mr. and Mrs. Ross Merrill's home, with 17 members present. Rev. A. Glen Eagle opened the meeting with Prayer, Alex Powell read Psalm 24. The group decided to sell Christmas Cards, wrapping paper etc. to raise money to buy a film strip projector for use of church organizations. Joe Finck demonstrated to the group what can be made from an orange crate, using es an ex- ample a utility stand, which he made for approximately fifty cents. Refreshments served by the hostess, concluded the evening. She was assisted by Mrs. George Colclough, Mrs. Roy Wheeler and Mi's. Willard Aiken.
