THURSDAY, APRIL 3rd, 1947 THE HAILEYBURIAN Beautiful Moth is Not Identified; Raised in Office Big Green Caterpillar Emerges From Cocoon; Added to Collection This family journal is not well versed in entomology, but we are learning gradualiy. During the past winter we conducted an ex- periment that brought quite sat- isfactory results, to the amateur at least, when we succeeded in raising to maturity a beautiful moth of a variety that has not so far been identified. Last fall, Fritz Manderstrom, a North Cobalt reader, brought to the office what appeared to be a giant green worm. It was about three inches long and of a cor- responding thickness, and Fritz had it encased in a small glass sealer with a periorated top. He was anxious to see just whether it would live and develop and what it would be if it did. Within a few days, the worm began to spin a web and in due time made a complete covering for itself and became dormant. Callers at the office were inter- ested in the development that far but when all signs of life had dis- appeared, little attention was paid to the jar, which stood on the counter near the froat door. The temperature was not high in that particular location. Last month the miracle of na- ture ran its course and there emerged from the cocoon a beau- tiful colored moth with a wing spread of several inches. Lloyd Herron, who makes a study of moths and has a rather large collection, spotted the new arrival before anyone on the newspaper staff had noticed it Tt has now been added to Mr. Herron's collection, but so tar he has been unable to establish the species to which it belongs. Its nigh coloring made it a beautifu' sight and it was apparently active and quite natural when removed from the jar. It was humanely killed, Mr. Herron said, and he still hopes to learn its identity. RED CROSS OBJECTIVE FOR PROVINCE NOW WELL WITHIN SIGHT Figures received at Ontario Division Red Cross headquarters to March 28 showed $1,360,688 of the provincial objective reported in the Canadian Red Cross nation- al appeal. The Ontario objective of $2,000,000 is well within sight and the amount raised to date is not regarded as an unsatisfactory figure, considering the great dif- ficulty which the weather during early March imposed on campaign workers in practically every branch in the province. A number of Ontario branches have topped their objectives in- cluding Hamilton with $125,000; Brantford $29,483; Stratford $15,- 000; St. Thomas $17,242; North Bay $7,000; Oakville $8,337; Hes- peler $2,909; Geraldton $2,508 ; Cardinal $1,867; Elmira $1,500; Prescott $2,304; Tavistock $560; North York 10,000; Sturgeon Falls $360; Lakefield $700. WOMEN RULE THE "BIG TOP" Perhaps even more spectacular than the big show itself is the behind-the- scenes battle for contro of the circus. Read the full story of three-ring dis- cord in "the greatest show on earth" in the American Weekly magazine with this Sunday's (April 6) issue of The Detroit Sunday Times. During 1946, 18,230 new con- sumers were added to rural lines of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario. New Star Flashes in Sport Parade Held by Legion Athletes From Canadian and American Universities Are Entered in Events A new star flashed upon the sporting firmament when Doreer Clough, youthful Montrealer burst the tape ahead of world champion Stella Walsh in the fifty-yard dash at the Canadian Legion annual Sport Parade in in Montreal. More than 8,000 fans lifted the roof of the Forum in acknowledg- ment of the new star who shone in company with the internation- ally famous "Flying Parson' Gol Dodds, who romped home an easy winner in the invitation mile. Dodds' comparatively slow time of 4.18 was due to lack of compe- tition. Internationally famous athletes from New York-university, Dart- mouth college, University of To- ronto, McGill university, Boston and a girls' team from Cleveland under Stella Walsh, Polish-Amer- ican world champion, provided a top-notch evening that saw Jim O'Brien, meteoric University of Toronto sprinter set a new Cana- dian open record in the 50-yard dash when he was clocked at 5.4 a tenth of a second better than the old mark. The international invitation high jump held the crowd 'ooh- ing' and 'aawing' as American champion John Vislocky of the N Y.A.C. bowed to Irving Mond- schein of N.Y.U. in a jump off that saw the bar notched to six feet 514 inches.

The 18-year old holder of the Women's World Figure Skating Championship has log- ged solo time, and when her skating commitments permit, hopes to achieve her private ilot's license. On her arrival in ontreal recently to attend a civic reception in her honour, Miss Scott was inducted into the "Short Snorters Club", an or- nization composed of trans- tlantic air travellers and pilots, and made an Honora light Captain of Trans-Canada's Sky- liners.
