2 'THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, December 26, 196) \U.S. Air Force Gifts To N.B. Disappeared TRACADIE, N.B, (CP)--Rev. Arthur Duguay, Roman Catholic parish priest, said Monday night Christmas gifts sent to his par- ishioners at nearby Brantville from a United States Air Force base have disappeared. Father Duguay said the gifts, flown more than 2,500 miles to this northern New Brunswick community from the Macdill base near Tampa, Fla., just seemed to be "gone with the wind," He said he met with a number of parishioners in his office Sun- day and the people expressed willingness to accept the pres- ents, which included fruit, a box of chocolate bars and 17 cartcns of clothing "T.reutrned to my work," he said, "and when I returned, they were gune. I haven't scen them or heard of them since," The charitable project started when the airmen found notes from Brantvilie families tied to imported Christmas trees asking| help for Christmas, and decided to do what they could. | Rev, A.
