After â€"the opening remarks the spezker proceeded to immediately inâ€" troduce‘the first speaker, Garth Brilâ€" linger from Timmins High and Vocaâ€" tional ESchool. Canada Should Manufacture Hydrogen and Atom Bombs Mr. Brillinger stated that Canada must produce these bombs ‘for the preservation of the safety of Canada. He went on to explain the terror and horror, koth physical and mental;, that the dropping of the atom bomos had had on Japsn. Garth said that these bombs had not only ended the war but had changed the thoughts of the Japanese people from agression to self preservation. Canada Has It He stated thet Canada had the maâ€" terial and ability and was fully capâ€" able of producing these bombs, the ‘only thing lacking being the money, which, he added might be obtained from the United States. He is taught â€" a réther pointed case of lIste in Timmins â€" that the proper thing to do when a person‘s clothing has caught fire, is to imâ€" mediately embrace him with a coat, a blanket, a rug, anything handy.

They started out the Naybob Road. They walked four and a half miles. _ _ As the sun fell behind the hills two of the boys cleared place in the snow. Others ripped dead branches from trees, cut them with sheath knives, built a fire and cooked a steak, sausages and bacon. Bacon makes enough grease and the sausages roll in it, gradually turning light brown. Sandwiches would never do. One must â€" and is indeed deserving â€" a hot meal after a long hike in the "Afoot and lightbearted I take to the open road, healthy, free, the world before me. . . ." camp, eat a hot mesl, clean out the billy can with snow.

Mr. Church thrn went into the five actusal tests‘ <that the bomb has unicrs.onsâ€" in a most interesting manneor. «_A the close af hiz speech he urged the establishing c< stri~t internstional control of this tremendous weapon. Atomic Bomb Don Church spoke on the atomic bomb, tracing its path from the disâ€" ecnvery of radio active matcrials by Madame and Pierre Curric to present day destructive uses ef the bomb. Mr. Brillinger made an excellent delivery in a clear concise tone. His posture throughout _ was excellent. The only criticism might be that he the expression "Ladies and gentlemen."~ Socialism Twin of Communism Miss Dianne Shook, in very powerâ€" ful address stated that Socizslism was none ‘other than the Twin of Comâ€" munism. "This so called welfare state," she said, "had wormed its way into power by all possible means, often disregarding religious ideals and freedoms. It was no welfare state in reality. Sccialist medicine was no gift of the government. The people were paying for it! People were paying eighty cents for a movie. one half of which w:s going to the Soâ€" cialist government. ) No $ $ Profit ; The people were to reap the profits of Nationalized industries. There had been no profitsâ€"in fact most indusâ€" tries are in debt while the governâ€" ment seems to be the only one making any profit. The people seemed to .be interested more in working for piiâ€" vate enterprise, than for themselves." "The menacte of Russgia is only tosn apparent. We must have to shed blood once again to preserve the freedom of the people from the socialâ€" istic state," Mis: Shook concluded. Miss Shook‘s delivery was very distinct and powerful. She had ‘good posture, good> vocabulary and used very influencing examples to back up her statements. "We are being lulled into a false sense of security by thinking that the U.S. will protect us. The only interest that the U.S. has in us is that we quered) from which agressive nations might be a basic point (if ever conâ€" might sttack the U.S." said Mr. Brilâ€" linger.

Miss Shotk stated that the world hed not yet recovered from previous socialist states as the Nazi socialist party in Germany and the Italian Fascist Party in Itsly. Mr. Lieberman, of the B‘Nai B‘rith ‘organization, acted as chairman for the afternoon. He explained the rules of the contest, introduced the judges. and explained the purposes of the cluib in presenting the competition. The judges were, Mr. Langdon, K. C.; Mr. J. B. Rooney, and Mr. Saul Shankman. The results: Rino Bragiâ€" nola, Schumgcher High, first; Miss Dianne Shook, Timmins High, second; Garth Brillinger, Timmins High, third and Donald Church, Schumacher High, fourth. The School Orchestra under the direction of Mr. Bartlett opened the afternoon with the Hungarian Dance d selections from Gioconda (ballet usic). The orchestra was well reâ€" ceived by a filled auditorium. Four contestants were entered, two from Timmins High and two from Schumacher High. and Cangdiana headquarters.

BORNâ€"In Porcupine General Hosâ€" pital to Mr. and Mrs. Milton Sullivan He stated he would go and se Heifetz first and leave at half time to go to the pavilion. On the serious side he seid that we must appreciate the classics and that we need these to‘limprove our culture. The contest was very well run in reneral and I‘m sure both participants and their respective schools are inâ€" debted to the B‘N@ij Brith for their wonderful work in this field. I believe Mr. Braganola‘s foremenâ€" tioned ideas speak for themselves. The only thing that I might add is that his address wes excellent. His speaking voice, his manner, in fact, everything was most notzble. He also made use of a most extensive vocabâ€" ulary, and, I believe, beyond a doubt, that the judges did right by picking kim as the winner of the contest and the Jack Brovinder Memorial Shield. Congretulationst Extemporaneous Speaking of a High Calibre The most notable advance over previous years‘ contests was in the extemporaneous speaking. Garth Brillinger was outstanding in this, as he made several good points bn,the abandomng of school examâ€" inations, He got his point across clearly and accur¢gtely. Incidentally, he was in favour of continuing these examinztions. ‘Mr. Braginola came in once again Miss Shook and Mr. Church spoke very effectively on the institution on radical ireas in the present day school system, and the abolishment of the funny papers, respectively. Judges Pleased Mr. Langdon, chairman of the judgâ€" ing committee, in his remarks stated that the judges were very pleased with things in general, He said that he could see that a lot of work had been put into the contest and that very di‘ficult subjects had ‘been treatâ€" ed very well. Mr. Langdon also said that the extemporaneous subjects were difficult topics and that all were treated very well. From racial prejudices he launched into religious prejudices. "It is someâ€" thing that we cannot look upon with indifference," he stated. These preâ€" judices, both religious and racial, are often born in the home by prejudiced parents. In conclusion he asked that we take as zgn example our own Jesus and try to emulate his high ideals. In these few words I have tried to sum up Mr. Braganola‘s thoughts concerning raci@l discrimination. I‘m afraid that I have done this rather unsuccessfully, for one would actuâ€" ally have to hear him to appreciate the excellence of his speech. ‘Some have mansged to overccme this barrier by makinz themselves great in their respective fields. Among these are Marion Anderscn, Paul Robeson, Jackie Robinson, and many others. To these pepole they luok for ‘leadership. ' Contrasting these examples, one may say that the common negro is lazy cnd shiftless Who has made him so? He is beaten and scor)ued upon when he does his best, as when he does his worst. "I wonder what we wouid do under such circumstances. We ourselyves gain nothing by this ignoble conduct, so would it not be better for all conâ€" cerned to join together to help eliâ€" miinate this disgraceful situation, this blot on the history of present manâ€" kind. ‘"‘Through the cfforts of a tolcrable few, slavery was eliminsted, but in its place there arose something warse than sievery itsel!, that was the racial discrimination ili.at has become so predominate in our present day. This brrrier has become so insurnnountâ€" able that the negro can nevor hope to overcome it himself, in fact the only wey it may he ovcercome is by the : wholehearted support of the white and black races. prejudice, and tha need for grcater tolerance in ‘he:> mat As an excmpic of most atrocious consideration "e ton‘s the c'mmplc of the American negro. i11% South Porcupine Doctor of Chiropractic wWISHES TO ANNOUNCE THE OPENING OF HIS OFFICE ON OR ABOUT FEBRUARY sth â€"â€"â€"~~131 Pine Street North, Timmins.
