About 29 years later, the town called Val Jalbert died. The last of the families boarded up their home and left. Almost 35 years have reduced the town to this state of decayed wood, loose shingles and overgrown 'streets. --(CP Photo) Maritime School Strives For More Efficient Fishing By DAVE BUTLER ST. JOHN'S, Nfld. (CP)--The Newfoundland College of Fish- eries has. no intention of trying to. teach its students how to fish--only how to fish more ef- ficiently and profitably than their forefathers. Many of the 200 young men who donned the dark blue sweater with bright crest is- sued by the school have al- ready learned their trade in their father's boats. Now the college wants to educate them to the degree where they can derive all the benefits from a life at sea, With an initial grant of $1,000,000, the school opened here last year to an experi- mental class of about 100. With seven departments, the school offers more than 50 courses, from net - minding to marine electronics and bacteriology. This year's class of 200, which began studies Sept. 28, is using the most modern equip- ment and getting the benefit of knowledge of experts from half a dozen countries. The only set qualification for admittance is that the candi- date must be at least 16. The curriculum was made flexible so that whatever formal school- ing a student has had he can start at his own level. EXPENSES PAID There is little if any cost to the student. Meals and lodging are provided and he receives $7 a week throughout the course. If he has been working he can forgo the expenses and draw unemployment insurance. Travel expenses to and from the college are paid by the school. The cost is shared by the Newfoundland government and Ottawa through the Technical and Vocational Training As- sistance Act. The school's seven depart- ments are: nautical science; naval architecture; fish process technology; marine engineer- ing; physics, mathematics and electronics; English, and exten- sion services. It offers candidates the op- portunity to take department of transport examinations leading to certificates of competency as masters, mates or engineers in the merchant marine or -coast guard. The academic year is broken TALENT FROM ABROAD The provincial government brought lecturers and instruc- tors from Norway, England, Japan, France, Romania and schools in Newfoundland. The college now has five senior lec- turers, nine lecturers, 27 in- structors and three assistant in- structors. Cyril Banikhin, director of ad- ministration, says he sees a great future for Newfoundland fisheries but feels the fisher- men will have to obtain further education to benefit from it. The North American market for seafood products will in- crease 30 per cent over the next 20 years, he adds. "These facts alone call for aggressive planning and posi- tive action, The college of fish- eries is dedicated to capitaliz- ing on this need and this op- portunity." The school's president is. Wil- liam F, Hampton of St. John's, who graduated from Dalhousie University, Halifax, and has a PhD from McGill University. While working as director of research development for Gen- eral Seafoods in Boston he di- rected the team that developed fish sticks. He later spent sev- eral years as chief of the fish processing section of the Food ym Agriculture Organization in ome, On completion of requirel courses, students will receive either a diploma of technology or a vocational certificate, de- pending on level of training and length of time spent in school. The technology diploma will require two or three years of study and is expected to pro- vide personnel for industry. The vocational certificate, particu- larly aimed at inshore fisher- men and those 'already em- ployed in the industry, will be given for shorter courses. ° Princess Royal To 'Hand Over' LUSAKA, Northern Rhodesia (Reuters)--The Princess Royal arrived here Thursday to rep- resent the Queen at independ- ence celebrations at midnight Friday when Northern Rhode- sia becomes the republic of | Zambia. : Saturday morning the 67-year- up into four semesters of about|old princess will hand over the use can be made of the three months each so that max-| constitutional instruments of in- dependence to President BTS Choir Sings|2x<= At Enniskillen ENNISKILLEN (TC) -- Autumn Thankoffering service Sunday evening was well attend- ed. The local congregation was augmented by visitors as well as several friends from the two other points on our pastoral charge, Rev. M. Dougherty's message was based on one of Paul's pastoral letters to Tim- othy. Twenty boys from the Bow- manville Boys' Training School, with their leader, H. Quarry and pianist, Mrs. Workwan, provided two enjoyable anthems, "Bless This House', and "Come Ye Thankful People'. By using nature's provisions of multi-colored fruits and veg- tables and £ y colored geran- jums, Mrs. L. Stainton and her Sunday \School class of Senior girls artistically decorated the sanctuary. The senior choir served lunch to the visiting choir of boys. Mrs. H. McGill and Mrs. E. A. Werry expressed appreciation to the group for their musical num- bers. : Next Sunday morning's serv- ice will be cancelled because of the Thankoffering service at Burketon in the afternoon, Sun- day School will be at 10,30 a.m. PERSONALS Mrs. E.

It's 'a shock to come upon a town complete with homes and community facilities, but lack- ing people. More awesome is to find this rigor mortis in our much-ballyhooed northern boom territory, It seems that back at the be- ginning of the century, farmers of neighboring regions one day began eyeing the beautiful Oui- atchouan Fails. They put up their savings to build a mill beside the fails in the hope of prospering through the fashionable produce of the day--wood pulp for the paper industry. The management built row upon mow of fine sturdy houses for their workers, a grand hotel for their guests, a town haill, store and church, @ school for their offspring and a cemetery for theirdead. They ran a track from the main railway line to their mill to get produce off to market. GOOD LIFE There wene several years of working, growing 2nd good liv- ing in Vai Jalbert, as the town was called, but it wasn't meant to last. Foreign interests with export) contracts in their pocket opened | bigger miils in neighboring towns and with greater knowl edge and better. connections, pushed the hopeful settlers to the edge of bankruptcy. Church Observes Laymen's Sunday Solina (TC) -- Sunday was Layman's Sunday at Eldad Church, The service was conducted by Bruce Tink with Wes Hills read- ing the scripture lesson. Stan Millson told the children's story and Harvey Yellowlees led in prayer. James Measures, of Hampton, gave a fine sermon-on "A Lay- man's View of a Layman's Role." Members of Ellad UCW were guests of Enfield UCW. Mrs. Arthur Johnson, a missionary home on furlough from Ecua- dor, was the speaker. In her illustrated talk she told of the fine work which she and her Exists' North Of Quebec City | Ghost Town In 1957, after a few stagger- ing efforts to eurvive, the town folded. As the turbines gurgled to a halt, families packed and left. But it took two more des- merate years before the last home was boarded up and the ghosts moved in. These were the facts as we learned them after stumbling into this unexpected adventure. With no 'commercial hoopla, tourist guides or billboards, it was a natural come-on for our imagination. When we arrived, it was dusk and not another living thing was in sight. But the children delightedly roamed the streets as if expecting old Hoss or Pal- ladin to start performing. I couldn't help: but what a terrific hideout this would make for outlaws. More than a mile in from the high- way, sheltered by towering mountains, a wanted criminal could have his pick of 125 homes and hole up with the worms. And who was there to neas- sure me a disciple of Al Capone hadn't thought of it first? AUTOS BARRED We were later told the cas- cading falls are 60 feet higher than Niagara. But to me, their roar seemed more of a conve- nient cover for any shrieks of help. Every so often, a wave of hot air swept over us, and while it amused the children, it just blew up the size of my goose pimples. Ail around us, the trees were tall, gaunt and death - hike. Some were pushing up between the railway tracks. Discarded pulp grindstones cluttered some back yands. We wondered who had bothered to cart them from the mill? The Quebec department of tourism has since taken over the old town and intends to open it to sightseers but when we were there, a jocked gate barred motorists, We had to find our way back to the barricade through wind- ing, unnamed streets.

It just didn't seem proper to treat .ghosts that way. & WORD COINED The transistor, which has re- placed the vacuum tube in many electronic devices, was named for its action in trans- ferring a signal across a re- sister. and wife, Mr, and Mrs. Ray Du- Beau and boys.

Givens Gets Into Paper Strike Act - TORONTO (CP) -- Mayor Philip Givens asked the three Toronto daily newspapers Thursday to negotiate separat- ely with local 91 of the Inter- national Typographical Union (CLC) in an effort to settle the printers' strike which began July 9. In a letter approved by board of control by a 4-to-1 vote, the mayor said the request was made as a sincere effort by the board to assist in a matter of vital concern to the community at large. The board authorized Mayor Givens to communicate with the papers--the Globe and Mail, the Ladies Make!

(CP) -- "There will always be a Spring- hill," said the late mayor Ralph Gilroy on Oct. 3, 1958, when this Cumberland County coal- mining town was stricken by its third major disaster in two years -- an earth - shaking "bump" or cave-in in No, 2 colliery that took the lives of 75 miners. Today, six years. later, this prediction could not be more accurate. The town seems well on the way to recovery through the establishment of new Thdus- try. and the recent announce- ment that an early start will be made on construction of a new $8,000,000 federal medium- security penal institution. It was another 'Black Thurs- day" for Springhill in 1958 when a terrific underground upheaval, locally called a "bump," trap- ped 174 miners. Eighty - one crawled out during the first 24 hours and then. came the two "miracles" -- 12 more rescued after being entombed six days when upwards of 1,500 men were working daily in the two pits, the genial miners gave them- selves lots of time en route to and from the collieries to talk with old friends and cronies. The never-say-die spirit hat the late mayor Gilroy so strongly emphasized n ithe dark days of 1958 is producing results today. HAS NEW HOSPITAL - The town has a modern new hospital to replace the aged All Saints Hospital that was the stage for many dramatic scenes as trapped and injured mine survivors were united with their families. A new federal build- ing replaces the familiar old post office whose walls were cracked by a previous "bump." A new mine is operating, em- plying slightly over 100 men. New industries include a wood- working plant anl a battery fac- tory. There's a new vocational high school and a minimum-se- curity correctional institution 4 occupies the old mining site. New stores and other build- ings have been erected in the and six more freed after eight days. TRAPS MINERS The first. of the three disas- ters came on Thursday, Nov. 1, 1956, when an explosion in No. 4 mine caught 127 miners under- ground. Only 88 were rescued alive and the mine was sealed permanently. It was Thursday LISTON WINDS UP .

Many private dwellings have taken on a new look as the result of inspired efforts by the owners. The Springhill office of the Na. tional Emplohment Service, which also covers the towns of Oxford and Parrsboro, listed only 235 males as registered unemployed at the end of Sep- tember. This is a sharp reduc- tion over last year when 323 were listed. FAMILIES MIGRATE This low unemployment figure is due in lange measure to the fact that the population--7,400 in 1956 -- dropped by nearly 2,- 000 as families moved away in search of employment. Springhillers can be found al- most anywhere in Canada and the eastern United States. At- tleboro, Mass., for instance, is called Little Springhill by resi- dents here due to the fact that a large number of their friends and neighbors migrated to that city where they work in a jews ellery manufacturing plant. Some commute from hill to nearby Amherst, N.S., and Dorchester, N.B., where a group of younger men are take ing apprentice: for employment in the new penal institution when it is built. Those who remain in Spring- hill are optimistic and more than ever echo the sentiments again in 1957 when a $1,500,000 Boxing Day fire swept the town's main street, wiping out nearly a dozen business estab- lishments and adding to the community's economic woes. The 1958 tragedy ended the Cumberland Railway and Coal Company's mining operations in Springhill. The closure of No. 2 mine threw 900 men out of work. Today there is a new hustle in evidence on the town's hilly main street.
