The new truck ar- rived on Thursday evening and was promptly taken out for tests in order that men would be famil- far with its workings on its first trip out. The new truck has been awaited for some months now and was released by fire underwriters only this week. e new truck, besides offering a 1953 appearance also brings some new equipment to the use of the local firefighters. Key piece of equipment are two high pres- sure one-inch: hose lines. This is the first truck to be so equipped in Whitby. With the high ure lines, ohe man is able to dle a one-inch line carrying 800 pounds pressure. This high pressure, say firemen, is very useful in the event of an oil fire which would ordinar- ily be difficult, if not impossible, to control with the ordinary fire lines. The high pressure line also makes use of a minimum of wa- ter, a feature that could be very important in the event of a fire in an area without an adequate water supply. The truck carried a 500-gallon storage tank which has an attachment at the rear of the truck to permit the tank to be refilled by a bucket ade in the event that normal watér supplies are not available, In addition to the two one-inch handle three at capacity of 200 pounds. Harold Boys, a member of the fire department, when queries at the possibility of hoisting 800 pounds pressure through a 2%inch line, explained that it takes two men to handle 100 pounds on that size of line and besides the 2%-inch|ing line is rated for only 200 pounds. The equipment, manufactured by American-Marsh, is mounted on a four-fon GMC cab and chassis with a 145 hp engine. Other spec equipment which came with the truck. includes an attic ladder and an Indian pump. The attic ladder resembles two squared aluminum poles when mounted on the truck but a bump on the floor and the poles separate to reveal a sho adder, which can be used inside a house. The Indian pump is a water tank and hand pump which can be carried by one man and is used for such duties as grass fires. Mounted on the truck also is a dry exting- uisher for use in electrical fires. Whitby Stokers' Solid Hitting Beats Leaside By DOUG. MANTZ Whitby Stokers set down Leaside Inglis to the tune of 21 to 5 last night at the Town Park. The Stok- ers banged out 19 hits, three of them good for extra bases while committing 2 errors. Leaside got 5 hits and made 4 miscues. The Inglis team came to Whitby last night on a hurry-up call from Stoker Manager Vic Iggleston. Ar- rangements had been made for the Danforth Hotel Senior B team to play here. However they were ord- ered in OASA Senior B play-offs starting last night. The Inglis team really had off night, just a week ago they defeated Agin- court, who are holding down second Place in the Highview Park and istrict Softball The ague. is one of the two teams that have | 4 defeated the Stokers this year. Arends pitched no-hit ball in the Agincourt win. .Seven Stokers crossed the plate in the first inning. Dick Sundin, Knibb, Taffy Mayne, Bill Procun- fer, Martin Jordan, Jimmy Jordan and Hooch Meulemeester all scor- ed off five hits and an error. Littkie scored in the second for Leaside. He singled to leftfield and went to second on a passed ball. When Arends hit a fielders choice Littkie moved to third and came home on Jones' fielder's choice. Lucketta got to second for Lea- side in the second inning when Knibb 'made a miscue. He scored when Jimmy Jordan dropped Jen- neroux's fly. Jenneroux crossed the plate on Johnston's double to left. Jim Jordan was safe on Arends bad throw in the bottom of the second. He trotted around to third via some daring base running and scored the eighth Stoker tally when Doc McEwen singled. Taffy Ma; homered in the six- th for the Stokers with two of his mates on base. The ball hopped over the cars in right field on its first bounce. Bill Procunier doubled to left and scored when Martin Jordan, Al Welch and Hooch Meul- emeester all walked. Martin was forced across the Jiate as Doc McEwen also walked. The Stokers had their biggest inning in the seventh when nine runners crossed the plate. Knibb, Taffy Mayne, Bill unier, Jimmy Jordan, Al Welch, Hooch Meulemeester, Doc McEwen and Dick Sundin all got hits and scored. Taffy Mayne did the trick twice in the one inning. Ome error was committed by Leaside and two walks were given up during the inning. In the ninth the Inglis crew stag- a short, two-run come-back. Littkie beat out an infield hit. Arends drove one down the third base line that went past Martin Jordan, past Bill Procunier and kept right on going. Bill recovered the ball but his throw-in was not in time to catch Arends at the plate. Taffy Mayne and Knibb led the Stokers in hitti in 6 trys and Knibb 4 in 5 trips to the plate. Hooch Meulemeester, pitching for the Stokers, struck out 22 batters and didn't surrender a free pass all night. Littkie led the Leasiders both offensively and de- fensively.

Sqdn. Ldr. Scott E. Alexander, an Arctic veferan whose job is to train RCAF personnel to survive crashes on land or sea, worked out the three-hour swimming scheme. In 1952 he was given what looked like an insurmountable problem. RCAF headquarters ordered that all his survival-course students be brought up to swimming standard before graduation. The 14-day survival course in- cluded 11 days in the northern Al- berta bush learning to live off the land. That left only three days in Edmonton, aad only three one-hour instruction periods in which to teach them to swim. NOt TIME WASTED An expert swimmer and instruc- tor, Sqdn. Ldr. Alexander had al- ways considered a month the mini- mum time required to teach the rudiments of swimming, but he and his staff came up with a solution. The instructors' stripped the course to the essentials. They reasoned that three one-hour por- iods on successive days would elim- inate need for revision, leaving 60 full minutes for instruction each they have graduated 168 men. ere hasn't been a REG BRYANT ELECTRIC Wiring & Repairs 213 BYRON ST.

Walter Gryba, 22, of Sas- Xatoon was swimming the width of the pool. ' His style left much to be de- sired, but he did swim. At the end of his second instruction period he swam four-widths of the pool. The third period saw him practising emergency drill in nine feet of water. STAYING UNDER To overcome the students' initial fear of water they are told to squat and hold their breath while under water. They find they can hold. their breath from 35 to 40 seconds. They are kept at this ex- ercise until they acquire confi- dence. Next they stand in water to their arrapits and are taught the move- ments of the breast stroke. They find" this exercise tends to lift their feet from the bottom of the pool, giving them buoyancy and teach- ing them propulsion. The third step consists of hav- ing the students grasp the rail at the side of the pool while they are taught proper leg movements. The instructor then demonstrates with his balloon how little air is needed in the lungs to stay afloat. The students now are told to take a deep breath, lie face down in the water and kick their way across the pool using dog-paddle hand movements, but keeping their legs still. Then they cross the pool, still with heads down and holding their breath, but using both hands and legs. After the students have learned these steps to the instructors' sat- isfaction they are taught proper breathing while swimming. Sqdn. Ldr. Alexander says the instructors have found the aver- age student is crossing the pool head down, breath held, legs still-- after 90 minutes' instruction, At the start of the third period they WHITBY IN BYGONE DAYS Successful civic holiday cele- bration was held at Heydenshore | Park.
