Late last year there was a scare that the centre would be closed when a special American jo OUR TIME by Howie Hunt Flight Line It has bezn noticed from ques- tions asked during conversaiions with varisus people, that many pe>- ple think taat flying is a diffi ult and co'tly enterprise, However, such is by far from being the case. | Flying todey, especlaly at flylag | clubs, has been reduced to a very small cost compared to a few years agn. Also, the quality of instruc- tion received is the finest onbtain- abe anywhere. A short time ago, flying time at the Ontario County Flying Club was amongst the cheapest rates quoted by the flying clubs in Canada. As in other or- ganizations, when more people par- ticipate, the cheaper the rates be- come. Although certain costs are standard, such as gas and oil, main- tenance and storage, other costs are decreased with volume flying. The charter granted clubs in the Roya] Canadian Flying Clubs As- sociation specifies that they be non- profit organizations. Therefore, after the necessary overhead has - been paid, the club is in a position to lower flying rates if there is suf- ficient volume of flying. From this short explanation it is hoped that you may realize what makes up the actual costs in flying and how they may be reduced. Any normal person can solo an aircraft after eight hours or less dual instruction. Many members of the local olub have proven this to be quite correct. There are no deep, dark secrets or tricks to be learned before you can fly. Hav- ing never been in an aircraft be- fore, you can probably fly all by yourself in less time than it took you to learn to operate the family car alone. Many members have been sufficiently proficient to solo in less than eight hours. The in- structors cover all points in a me- ticulous and interesting manner so that no misunderstanding is likely to occur. Explaations on the ground speeds the assimilation of the knowledge of actions in the air, confidence is built up and the whole lesson is carried on in a simple straight-forward manner. The dunways last week-end were excellent for either wheels or skis an Sunday was a perfect flying day. Many visiting planes were in evidence on the tarmac and the Oshawa airport is becoming a fa- vorite spot for visitors. (Could it be those delicious snacks served up by Mr. and Mrs. Grant Kilpatrick?) The recreation Hall is a busy spot these days with- many mem- bers participating in the various sports available. HAIRCUTS UP Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., Jan. 15 -- (CP) -- Tomorrow adult haircuts will jump in price from 50 to 60 cents, children from 30 to 40 cents, and shaves from 25 to 40 cents the local Barbers' Association has de- cided. Most barbers reported a landoffice business today. il Reieased by sew Soweto: He "She didn't give me a chance to explain that they're just samples and aren't for sale YET!" Sports Program Pays Dividends St. Catharines, Ont.--(CP)--On-~ tario has seen a tremendous boon in organized minor sport during the last few years, in which St. Cath- arines could probably be picked as a model city. "Keep the kids busy and you'll keep them out of troub- le," seems to be the slogan of the Garden City, and it's paying rich dividends. In 1938, when a sports program was first organized, there were 131 juveniles in court. In 1936 there were 13 cases and only one was a repeater, Most of the credit must go to members of the Public School Men Teachers' Association, while local service clubs gave active support. When the program first started rolling in 1939, teachers ofter were up at 630 am, to supervise an hour's hockey practice at the city- owned arena before school. Each year the city has had three hockey teams--bantam, midget and juvenile--in the Ontario Minor Hockey Association provincial play-- offs. In seven years the teams have won 14 of a possible 21 cham- pionships, and have been runners- up on just about every other oc- casion. Added incentive to aspir- ing 'teen agers is the advance of about 10 loca] players to farm clubs of professional teams. But hockey isn't the only minor sport encouraged here. The aszocia- tion also sponsors track and field meets and regular soccer series in inter-school competition. St. Cath- arines is represented by three teams again in the lacrosse field, with the backing of service clubs and private citizens. Veteran basebal] players are vol- unteer coaches on the diamonds of five city parks, preparing their teams for the provincial playdowns. Too, the city and board of educa- tion jointly operate playgrounds in the summer months. By ROSS MUNRO Canadian Press Staff Writer Berlin -- (CP) -- A "barter centre" operates in the United States sector of Berlin which practically amounts to an offici- ally-sponsored and supervised black market. The currency is chiefly cigarets, like any other continental black market. But there isn't a black market like this anywhere else in Europe. The Americans appear to accept black market deals between their soldiers and control commission personnel and the Germans as inevitable, i Instead they try to discourage illegal street corner and back room trading by setting up the centre where operations are cen- tralized and put on an officia] if not legal basis, i The barter centre has been do- ig a roaring business for five months and seems to grow in pop- ularity both with the Germans and Americans, British and Ca- aadlans in Terlin also patronize t. Allied personnel go in one en- trance to the big hut where the market is located, with cigarets, coffee, canned goods or chocolate and trade them for barter points. The goods accepted must be im- ported privately and articles sold in army and control commission canteens aren't acceptable, At the other end of the sprawl- ing hut, Germans shuffle in with household and personal articles they want to trade, They alsc re- ceive barter points good for cig- DUSTBANE LEADING ITMENTAL HARDW STORES 8 CHAIN AND UT CANADA DOUBLE ¥ 111 reat) ara iretlh 0 °F -- bbe .
