4A THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, June 16, 1964 JAMIE PAULSON WITH TROPHIES Pint-Sized Badminton Champ Amazes Pros CALGARY (CP) -- "He has the skill and determination to be the best," says badminton pro- fessional Dave Folinsbee. Object of his praise is Jamie Paulson, ashy, pint-sized 15- year-old who amazed the bad- minton fraternity last winter by emerging from the ranks of the unseeded ta become the young- est-ever Canadian junior cham-| 17 pion. Jamie, a Calgary high school student, says his game is one of '"'keeping my* opponent off balance." His instructors de- scribe it as amazingly sound, especially in defensive manoeu- vres. There is no doubt that Jamie worked harder than anyone I can recall for the junior cham- pionship and if he continues there's no telling how far he will go,"' says Folinsbee, pro at the Calgary Glencoe Club. Paulson has set his immedi- ate sights on a spot as a mem- ber of Canada's 1966 Thomas Cup team in international com- petition. "The junior title has been my goal since I started last year but now that I have achieved that I would like to 'play for Canada," he says. The 124-pound dynamo. says he would like to remain in junior competition for two more years, figuring he'll be stronger and better developed when he enters big-time competition at In the Canadian champion- ships in Toronto in March, Jamie rolled through three con- vincing upsets in the men's open competition, knocking over Thomas Cup team member Bruce Rollick before losing to Torben Kops of Denmark in the fourth round, Out of senior play, Paulson continued his march in the junior competition. In the quar- ter-finals he met and defeated Calgarian Ken Delf, fourth- seeded player who earlier had beaten him in the city cham- pionships. "This was toughest match,'"' he says. "It lasted 90 minutes and I won the final set 18-16." From there it was through the semi-finals and finaly a three- set victory over second-seeded Yves Pare of Montreal. Losing the first game as he had almost all through the competition, Paulson wore out his 19-year-old opponent and finished off with a 15-6 triumph. Paulson and a crew of other Calgary youngsters including Delf owe much of their success to a program initiated by Folins- bee and his staff during last summer's school holidays. IBM Factory And Bank At The Canadian School of Business, exams must be written at the end of each month, for those who have finished a subject. Recently, every student wrote at least two exams. We don't put our names 'lon the examination paper; only a number, The exams are made up by The Business Educators' Association. Many of the stu- dents are wandering around with the jitters waiting for the results to come back. The pass mark on many of the exams is 70 per cent and in some sub- jects that mark is darn hard to reach. Over three mistakes in a Rapid Calculation exam means failure. However, on. to brighter things. I have told you: about. our trip to the Toronto Stock Exchange. We have also had a trip to the IBM factory in' Don Mills and a tour through the Bank of. Nova Scotia building in downtown Toronto. FABULOUS The IBM factory is fabulous. They - build everything from small typewriters computing» machines. The fac- tory is kept extraordinary clean at all times. We were surprised to learn that the IBM people even make their own paper ecards for their calculating machines. They produce machines for many different of various types of steel and - The main oe was the eque with the help of-a large sorting machine. SIGHTSEEING After the tour, the students were allowed to shop and sight- see on their own. Because many of us. had heard about the adventures on the subway. dur- ing the last trip to Toronto, most of us headed for the sub- way. The group this writer was with, went to the museum. On our way downtown, we got off the ae train and found that we were the only one in the station, save for a lonely looking figure at the other end.

It's quite humorous to see a typewriter with a key- board in Swedish or German. After the tour ~through the IBM plant, the public relations man in charge of our brood took us into the cafteria where We were served a meal (what a meal!) "on the house". UP AND UP After the delicious dinner, we got into the bus for a short trip into downtown Toronto. The first place we went to in the Bank of Nova Scotia building was the roof. It's quite a ride going 25 stories up in an elevator. The board rooms of the bank are on the top floor. We felt as if we were in a mansion « - carp- eted floors and gleaming wood- work. From the top floor we were taken to the basement into the vaults. The doors on the vaults were almost four feet thick and made of many different layers Perfect For 10¥2 KING STREET WEST Teen Dances R. B.
