Travelling Chair To Saskatchewan TORONTO (CP)--A carved mayor's chair is on its way home to Saskatchewan after touring Ontario for 20 years. Edward Harding of Lindsay Ont., has owned it since the early 1940s and recently pre- sented it to the Leaside, Ont., town council, of which he once was a member. A plate on the back said it had been resented in 1919 to James E. eaker, mayor of Yorkton-- the old name of Leaside. But Leaside has never had @ mayor Peaker, even when it was called Yorkton. Then someone remembered that there is a Yorkton in Sas- katchewan. A letter to the western Yorkton brought a reply from Mrs. E. A. Crosthwaite, say- ing she is Mr. Peaker's daughter, and she would like his chair back as a memento. A' phone call by retired town. clerk R. V. Burgess filled in the gaps in the story. The chair came to Ontario as a gift to Mayor Howard Talbot of Leaside from a_ personal friend, Mrs. Crosthwaite's brother. Mr, Talbot found it too uncomfortable and the chair was on its way to the dump when Mr. Harding res- cued it. : In the intervening years, Mr. Harding, who now runs an antique store in Lindsay, moved five times in Ontario.

WEST 728-1607 'Makarios Now Much Stronger NICOSIA (AP) -- When the Cypriot crisis erupted a year ago, sending alarms of war through the Mediterranean, it threatened to end the political career of Makarios III, who is both president and Greek Ortho- dox archbishop of the Island. Now the stalemated crisis has subsided into a maze of man- oevres at the United Nations, fighting has been reduced to an occasional stray shot and 'Ma- karios has emerged stronger than ever. "Many people, particularly Westerners, tend to think that if Makarios were removed, the Cypriot problem would become simple and solve itself," says one well - informed diplomat. "That is a miscalculation, and a dangerous one. Makarios is the only leader on this island. "His political moves--annoy- ing as they may be to the West --are genuine in the same way. They reflect what the Cyprus Greeks want." The greatly - outnumbered Turks of Cyprus damn Makar- jos as a disciple of Satan but to most of the island's 480,000 Greek-Cypriots, the 51-year-old churchman is akin to a saint. TAKES TIME OFF The son of a shepherd, Ma- karios regards the Cypriots as his flock and he takes time. off from the presidency to perform marriages and funerals, baptize children and preside over serv- ices in Nicosia cathedral. A few Cypriots still denounce Makarios for signing the 1959 Zurich agreements which give Cyprus limited independence from Britain instead of full freedom or enosis (union with Greece). But since the crisis, pong, 4 have come to regard him as the savior of the island. Gen. George Grivas, the for- mer underground hero who now is the island's military com- mander - in - chief, fought four years for union with Greece and turned against Makarios when the archbishop settled for independence. He began agitat- ing loudly for enusis last sum- mer. He has since faded into the background while Makarios, swinging with the tide, has openly re-embraced enosis. Despite his reputation as a skilled politician, Makarios at times seems te avoid making difficult or "»nonular decisions. As a church leader he op- poses atheistic communism and feels himself basically a West- erner, but he has let the Com- munist party of Cyprus thrive to a point which many Cypriots consider dangerous, in return for the party's support. LACKED FORCEFULNESS Before the days of Greek un-| derground terrorism against Britain, Makarios preached the tenets of Gandhi but lacked the forcefulness to launch the pas-|f GOLF PRIZES HIGHER LAS VEGAS, Nev.
