Gladdened saddened We are not too sure whether to be gladdened or sad dened by the Ontario Supreme Courts decision to allow the Vagabond motorcycle club to hold party on its own property this weekend It gladdcns us because the court ruling clearly says person or group cant be the target of special legisla tion because of what they might do It saddens us because there is probably better thaneven chance there will be trouble at the party Fortunately the laws of this country view all people as equal be they citizens of great probity or motor cycle thugs The law is there to protect us from the possible ex cesses of legislators For that we can be thankful But we can be excused to not being too thankful in this case Newmorket photographer Bogart lined up the members of the Catholic Mutual

independent Quebec would somehow be cooperating in un prccidcntcd harmony with the other provinces In fact chcsquc and his ministers have Itptillldly said they will only get down to specifics in their own good time So it comes as no great shock to most of us that tlic survey indicated smutteringof con fusion Some Ill per cent of Qucbccers thought that if the Pt won its sovereigntyassociation

park Good team developing Hy DUN IIEARN Queens Park Bureau Thomson News Service TORONTO They say pitching is 83 per cent of baseball Pitchers are also important in politics In this game the pitchers are few front benchers who carry the attack and feed the high hard ones sliders and steady throwing which keep their parties in front and the opposition parties off balance And in this area the Ontario Liberals here today show weakness that they are still rookie team ALLSMITII It is just little more than year since the Liberals became once again the official opposition In that 12 months remarkable progress They have shown strong force and have become definite threat to the government Although its probably not apparent great deal of this has been due personally to the efforts of leader Stuart Smith He has pitched well the whole game Though he is good the party probably needs more IttIIINlIAIlllllllll As at team the Liberals shape up pretty well In their caucus they have thc making of good cabinet Perhaps somc of them would be bit raw ill first but caliber is there and with experience they should seat in llul missing is that front bench strength which can take its place in the rotation par ticularly consistent winners The government in addition to Premier William Davis has Darcy McKcough Roy McMurtry John Rhodes Frank Miller and one or two others who are all strong and steady tlt has some erratic oncs tom The New Democrats have leader Michael Tassidy Stephen Lewis Don MacDonald and Jim chwick all reliable veterans and still sharp The Liberals do have Rob Nixon But Bob though he can throw hard hasnt much stuff and always has had trouble finding the plate and keeping it low Politically one of the for mcr lenders problems has been getting to the point and sticking with it Jim Breithapt the House leader is now an old pro but he really isnt pitcher Hes more of glove man And the other veterans arent frontline men There are some potentially good chaps

story Explorers were tough By BOB BOWMAN Explorers of the North West to of Mon treal contributed great deal to the development of Canada Yet some of them were rough tough nasty characters whose motto was When you are with wolves howl However some of thc Norcstcrs were gentlemen although they had to be tough in the mggcd sense Alexander Mackenzie Simon Fraser and David Thompson were inc types of men Thompson refused to carry liquor into Indian territory Once when forced to do so on trip through thc Rockies hc strapped thc kegs on wild horse and they were broken to bits as the horse kept crashing them against the stone walls of narrow canyon William lllctiillivrny after whom Fort William was called was one of the tough NorWestcis Once he came upon free trader who had pitched tent along Norcst route and he slashed the tent with knife Then he told the trader to be gone by sunset or he would be slashed like the tent Peter Pond was the toughest of them all He was implicated in two murders and sent to trial in Montreal for one of them He was acquitted but even the NorWesters had enough of him and treated him so coldly that he sold his share in the company and went to the US Yet Pond made some valuable con tributions to Canada lie discovered Lake Athabnska on Iune27 1778 and was one of the earliest explorers to learn to use pcmmicun for food He encouraged his associates to do the same Pond also taught Alexander Mackenzie the tricks of the trade and inspired him to make his vo age down the Mackenzie River and later come the first main to cross the continent by land Pond might have canted that honor for himself He tried to persuade the US government to finance him on trip across the continent but did not succeed in getting the support he needed VIIIER JUNE NEVENIS
