The debris, abounding in the sun's orbit, range in size from a speck of dust to an ordinary bullet. But charging through space as fast as they do, they could easily penetrate a ship's bull. In charge of the project is Dr. Cats Defended Lonely Woman VANCOUVER (CP) -- Mrs. Barker remember her Kenya cats. In the days of Mau Mau ter- rorism, they were more thar just feline friends. They were arch-defenders. Mrs. Barker took her cats with her from England when -ghe went with her husband to Kenya 25 years ago. They bought a 1,000-acre coffee plan- tation in the wilderness of the Kikuyu country, an_area now known as the White Highlands. Her husband died two years jJater. When the Mau Mau ter- ror campaign started she man- aged the plantation alone, sep- arated from the nearest police) station by 30 miles of tropical) bush. | "J was scared.to death. My/ dogs were killed by marauding | lions and leopards. Many of my African servants left me. They were afraid the Mau Mau bands roaming around the for- est might kill them. "I used to sleep at night with a Luger automatic under my pillow. | "I had about 15 Siamese) trained cats. They saved me. | "They would growl at night whenever anybody came near the house." Mrs. Barker said the cats ac- tually would attack anybody who entered the house, and lions and leopards kept their distance. Only the cats allowed her to stay and work the plantation. Mrs, Barker chatted during a} Vancouver stop on a world tour. | She no longer has any pets and} she's undecided about returning to Kenya, a land where disturb-/ ances have wrought great) change, and where she believes) the work of white pioneers) will disappar with independ-| ence, scheduled for next year.| Say Seat Belts | | - Saved Lives CHATHAM (CP)--A coroner's) jury has decided that seat belts might have saved the lives of two children killed July 7 in a Gerald V. Bull ,head of the me- chanical engineering depart- ment. It's part of a general space study program being con- jducted through the Arthur D. |Little Corporation of Cam- |bridge, Mass. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States asked McGill to undertake the job of devising a means of protecting space vehi- cles. | Prof, Bull | says there isn't much danger from the flying particles .for Soviet and U.S. spacecraft orbiting the earth. The danger comes, he says, in 'free space' hundreds of miles beyond the earth's surface where the main shower of dust and other particles are encoun- tered. : VACUUM CHAMBER The McGill experiments, by a team of 10, will attempt to du- plicate conditions in space. A special steel chamber from which air is withdrawn to create a high vacuum has been built. At the beginn ni gscnseiitst will fire bullets into the cham- ber at velocites up to 21,000 m.p.h. Later they will speed up the velocity to 50,000 m.p.h. College Probe No Necromancy HALIFAX (CP) -- ESP and theology have joined forces at | The bullets will s msan ihto shields that scientists will con-| tinue to design until they get) one that won't crack under the) impact. Special photographic techniques will be used to take pictures as impact occurs. One involves a flash camera unit that takes x-rays. However, scientists know the problem won't be solved only by a shield that will withstand the fragments of debris. For when they smash into the im- pregnable shield they disinte- grate into a gas cloud of high) pressure and intense heat. This) is more dangerous than the im-} pact itself. The need then will be to de- velop a shield able to protect the space ship from the hot gas clouds. At the moment the study hasn't passed the stage of pre- design mathematical and physi- cal calculations. Canada has already done some work in this field. Signifi- cant contributions, which Mc- Gill will employ, were made by the National Research Council which used radar observations of re-entering particles to deter- mine speed and trajectory and the University of Kings College here. Kings, endowed by the Angli- can church, is conducting an investigation into human men- tal resources in an attempt to determine whether there is any basis in the claims for telepa- thy, autokinensis, clairvoyance and other forms of parapsychol- ogy or ESP--extrasensory per- ception. The study is being carried out on a three - year trial basis. Kings has accepted a joint in- vitation from Duke University in North Carolina and the Pa- rapsychological Foundation of New York to accommodate a research unit, The invitation was accompanied by an offer of a grant. Canon H. L, Puxley, president of Kings, says the experiments will be conducted along strictly scientific lines to avoid any un- due wandering in "necromancy. and moonshine." "There is a possibility of es- tablishing a connection between parapsychological laws and the laws of God for the health of man's body and soul." For this reason, Canon Pux- ley says he feels the present of a school of divinity at Kings makes it fitting that the univer- to estimate the size of th dust sity should be the first in Can- ada to plan for such studies. NEW YORK (AP)--A young Toronto-born minister, who calls his belief "Christian agnostic- ism," is using plays and ab- stract paintings in his work. Rev. William B. Glenesk of the Spencer Memorial Presby- terian Church in Brooklyn says "I am sure that God exists but I can't prove it--that's the ag- nostic element." "To believe in God's existence is a matter of faith, but within the framework of this faith, est in his new approach and that about 100 attend the Sun- day services, with an average of 50 staying on for the semin- ans. William Bell Glenesk, 35, was born and raised in Toronto, where his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Glenesk still live. He is a graduate of the Uni- versity of Toronto and studied lat Toronto's Royal Conservatory of music. He took a master's de- there is this doubt as to the whereabouts of God," he added. In_an effort to reaffirm his own faith and that of his parish- joners and in an attempt to dis- cover more about God's mani- festations in the world, Mr. Gle- nesk believes in experimenta- tion. "It is an exploratory type of faith; faith grows with expos- ure," he says. "This is an old Greek idea, that is, to begin with things you don't know." Because Mr: Glenesk does not subscribe to a division between secular and religious activities but believes that everything is under God, he feels free to draw upon the greatest works of art and literature. He has discussed modern and classic plays, the dance and art in his sermons as exampels of God's spirit at work. Hamlet was used to explore the problmes of personal free- do mand pride; King Lear, self discovery; Death of a Sales- man, self deception, The Tenth Man, supernatural elements in the universe, and Gideon, war between men. _ He reports that his congrega- tion, which numbers about 200 Persons, has shown great inter- gree in ethics and literature at Minister Uses Plays Paintings In Search Columbia University where he studied under the noted theolo- gian Paul Tillich, He says that he follows Tillich's ideas of "ro- mantic existentialism," He came to the Brooklyn church five years ago. In the meantime, he studied acting under actresses Eva le Glli- enne and Uta Hagen, and mod- ern dance under Ruth St. Denis. His views first became wid- ely known June 30 when he ap- peared on an early morning ra-' THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesdey, July 25, 1962 3] dio program and espoused| "Christian agnosticism." Since then, he says, he has received about 100 calls, most of them favorable, but soem bitterly critical. Mr. Glenesk does not believe his ideas are widely divergent with most of tianity, ex- cept for his belief that God does not directly intervene in the lives of individuals, aside from the laws he has set in motion for all mankind. He now is starting a new se- ries of sermon parables on "the meaning of man in modern art."' He said he will bring into church paintings and some sculpture done by William Zo- rach on the subtopic The Taste tween cubism and representa- tionalism. In addition to his unorthodox views and methods, Mr. Gle nesk has also started a centre for elderly people in his church and has invited well - known speakers to give sermons. One of these was V .K.
