B THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, Januory 8, 1965 CANADA OUTDOORS Kejimkujik' Is Canadas Newest National Park By DAL WARRINGTON KEDGEMAKOOGE, N.S. (CP) --The Indians called it Kejimkujik, meaning "fairy lake." When autumn leaves turned red and brown the Mic- macs set up their winter wig- wams on its shores. Now the Indians are gone but a new breed of campers will soon pitch their tents and park their trailers 'at Kejimkujik. The island-dotted lake and sur- rounding wooded hills and wa- terways--146 square miles in all ~--have been designated as Can- ada's newest national park. The name may baffle some visitors. The post office calls it Kedgemakooge, the spelling that appears on some maps. But the parks service prefers Kejim- kujik, pronounced Kedge - im- coo'jik, closer to the original Micmac. In size it will rank 12th, smaller than Terra Nova in Newfoundland and larger than Mount Revelstoke Columbia. Kejimkujik National Park lies in the interior of western Nova Scotia about mid-way between the Atlantic and the Bay of Fundy. It is 140 miles from Halifax by road. Besides Kejimkujik Lake there are more than 35 other lakes, with such names as Pes- kowesk, Peskawa, Pebbie- in British} oggitch, Hilchemakaar, Frozen Ocean, Snake and Beaverskin, linked by a maze of rivers and streams. Most of them are part of the Mersey River system draining into the Atlantic at Liverpool about 40 miles to the south. Almost one-sixth of the park area is water. BOAT NEEDED Only a few miles of road penetrate the area. Most of it can be reached only by boat, float plane or on foot. But you can travel by boat or canoe in almost any direction. The shores and rolling hills are cloaked with forests of oak, beech, maple, hemlock, pine and birch. Traces of old Indian settle- ment are still being found. Mic- mac pictographs cut with a beaver's tooth on slate - rock ledges can be seen along iake shores. Over the years many arrowheads have been picked up. Remains of an Indian bury- ing ground are visible. Wildlife includes deer, occa- sional bear and moose, wild- cats, foxes, raccoons, beavers, partridge and woodcock. Loons and streams offer speckled and brown trout and warm-water swimming. The Nova Scotia government assembled the land and turned it over to Ottawa in November for development. About 19,800 acres were already crown land but- 73,800 acres had to be bought or expropriated from private owners, including 45,000 acres in timber reserves of the Bowaters Mersey Paper Co. Ltd. All told more than 100 prop- erties were expropriated, in- cluding a number of long-es- tablished hunting and fishing lodges. The oldest, Kedge Lodge, on a point in Kejimkujik lake, had been in_ existence since 1906. The parks service plans to demolish the lodges. SORRY TO LEAVE Leaving their homes and the wilderness they love hasn't been working on plans for develop- ment. Visitors will enter at Maitland Bridge, a farming and lumbering village on Nova Scotia. Highway 8, about 30 miles south of Annapolis Royal. Resources Minister Laing, copter in November, says pfe- liminary plans call for access roads, campgrounds, canoe and hiking trails, marinas and pos- sibly motels. But most of Kejimkujik will be preserved as wilderness. A separate seashore section of about 1,200 acres proposed.

CUP PLAY Hopes Are High When David Meets Goliath By DOUGLAS NICHOLSON LONDON (Reuters) -- The magic of the Football Associ- ation Cup puts a sparkle on the drab English winter scene Sat- urday when the giants of the English League's first and sec- ond divisions clash with the 20 survivors of earlier rounds in the third round of the competi- tion. For the little clubs, amateurs and third and fourth division sides, there is no real hope of reaching the final at Wembley Stadium next May. What they hope for is a lucky draw bringing them up against a famous first - division side and the slender chance of a giant - killing performance to bring them a fleeing moment of fame. The draw has given a num-| ber of them just the chance they wished for. Arsenal, a world name in soccer, and a proud first divis- ion side, must leave palatial Highbury and travel north to Darlington, where fourth-divis- ion teams usually draw crowds of 3,000. COST ONLY $9,000 On Saturday, 23,000 specta- tors will cram into the tiny £3,000 ($9,000) to muster can; topple mighty Arsenal, whose} three defenders, Don Howe, Frank McLintock and Ian Ure alone cost a total of £185,000. Tottenham Hotspur takes a} trip to the seaside, visiting the) west country holiday resort of) Torquay in another fourth ver- sus first division clash. Spurs have not won an F.A. Cup match since they captured the trophy for the second consecu- tive season in 1962. Preston North End, beaten finalists last year, returns to London to meet Barnet, the only amateur club left in the competition. Home - team sup- porters hope Barnet's sloping ground will help level the odds in its favor. Manchester United, currently 13-2 favorites to win the cup, land also strongly tipped for the first-division championship, en- tertains fourth-division Chester, whose only consolation is likely to be its share of the gate from an anticipated crowd of 50,000. The closest match of the day may be on Merseyside, where Everton meets Sheffield Wed- nesday for only the third time since the Second World War. Wednesday won the two previ- ous clashes but they were both Feethams Ground to see whether a team that cost only in Sheffield and this time it may be Everton's turn. NOW THEY TELL I 7 Former Sports Scribe May Have Killed Deal EDMONTON (CP)--A_ press- ing newspaper deadline was a factor in the undoing of a 1960 football trade involving: Bernie Faloney and Sam Etcheverry, two of Canada's top quarter- backs, says Eaton Howitt of the Edmonton Journal. Howitt, now The Journal's legislative reporter but in 1960 a sports writer with the Hamil- ton Spectator, told of details behind the scenes that resulted jin Etcheverry leaving the Al- ouettes. Etcheverry's departure the Eastern Football Confer- ence Alouettes without soned quarterback until a trade this week finally brought Faloney into the Alouettes camp from Hamilton Tiger- Cats. "Faloney might have joined} the Als in 1960 if it 'hadn't been for me and my big, fat type- writer," Howitt said Thursday in a bylined story. Howitt writes: "Jake Gaudaur, and told me to meet him at Malton Airport for a trip to Montreal, "When we were finally settled on the plane, Jake told me the story. He was trading Bernie Faloney and lineman Don Paquette for the fabulous pair of Sam (The Rifle) Etcheverry and Prince Hal Patterson. But it was terribly hush, hush. HE CHEATED!
