Doug Hall It was thought, that, lacking any meeting place that woiuild accomodate the activities of all young people in town, there might be set up a number of such meeting places which would du the job for a number of smaller groups. These smaller bodies would elect thneir own executives and members of these executives would in turn be named as representatives on the centrai group. A survey is being made of availabie accomodation in Timmins toâ€" learn just what is possible in this respect. Tentatively, it was suggested that at the: meeting ca general executive of young folk might be selected to act as a guiding body. for a organiâ€" zation, if such coull he developed.

"The RCAF. will give you a trade, and a good one,"â€"Flight Lieut. Hall declared ‘in outlining the advantages to be gained by young men enlisting. "Ranks are automatic to LAC," he said.
