That's the picture one finds around Warka, about 60 miles south of Warsaw, and in the district of Kielce, on the main Warsaw-Krakow highway. In the Kielce district alone, 146, 000 people live in dirt-topped, brick walled dugouts and hovels. De- &pite that, most Polish peasants ap- pear to be glad to be back on their own soil, for many of them spent long years in Nas concentration camps, In this little town, not a roof was left and few walls are standing. De Peasants live in cellars or little holes dug in the ruins, sometimes two families to a dugout. ------------ UNEXPECTED Red wine can be made from white grapes and white wine from red 4 1904, and moved to Kingston for a short time.

It took his spare time for eight years to make and put together the 2,000 parts of the model, When Kingsford Smith was lost in 1935, Byrne atarted to work on hig portable shrine featuring a four-foot globe with land areas shown in gold-plated brass 'criss- crossed with the routes of Kingsford Smith's flights, Byrne printed by hand a volume bound with kangar- 00 hide containing tributes to the Australian flier from other world famous airmen. Byrne's models were first put on display at Parliament House in Wellington, N.Z, and the New Zea- land government assisted his pase sage to the United States where he did odd jobs to finance their trans. port about the country for war ex- hibitions, Byrne, who says he turned down | offers of as much as $30,000 for his models in the United States, brought them back to Australia.on a five-year-old steamship ticket given him by the New Zealand gov. | ernment in 1941, His hope now is that Australian authorities will find the models acceptable for the 'National Mu- seum, 3 v Al133V "| as a naval APPOINTMENTS ARE ANNOUNCER Ajax Minister To Be Prin- cipal Of Indian Residential School Toronto, Aug. 6--The Board of Home Missions of the United Church of Canada announces the following appointments; Rev, John R, Leng, BA, BD, to be Assistani Secretary of the Board; Dr, George H, Burgess to be Medi cal Superintendent of Queen, Chare lotte City, QC.

Known as 8t, Maurice Chemicals Ltd. the plant is located five miles southwest of Lac a la Tortue, Que, near Shawinigan Falls, RDX was developed both in Enge land and in Germany. Early in the war, Canadian chemists and engineers realized that it would be- come one of the most important explosives, and work was done in Canadian research laboratories to devise methods of manufacture more economical than those origi nated in the United Kingdom. In this they were remarkably success- ful, The plant was constructed with the help of Canadian Indus. tries Limited and Shawinigan Chemicals Ltd, both of which play ed a part in designing and erecting the installation, The competence of the Canadian engineers and chemists who worked on the development of this plant, Is demonstrated by the fact that it eventually produced eight times as much explosive per day as had ore iginaly been planned, with relative- ly little increase in the cost of equipment and with a great de- crease in manafacturing coast, Construction was begun on Dec. 1, 1041, and was completed im July, 1042, at an approximate cost of $2,500,000, Operations started July 19, 1942, and continued until Aug- ust 20, 1945, At the peak there were 400 hourly-paid employees and 45 salaried personnel, When operations came to an end the plant was thor. oughly decontaminated and all hazardous buildings were destroyed or removed. Much of the special- ized equipment made largely of stainless steel and aluminum has been retained by Ganadian Arsenals Limited as t of the program for the future defence of Canada, The land on which the plant is built comprises a fenced area of about 483 arpents, or approximately 400 acres, Erected on this propery is a group of Sulletng, mostly of frame construction, plant was designed for expansion and a mod- ern 800 HP, boller plant was in- stalled with a modern pumping station to distribute adequate steam and water, Rail service was pro- vided by the Canadian Pacific Rallvay under aide track agree- ment, GET AFTER NON-VOTERS Sydney, Australia -- (CP) «= The New South Wales State Bleotorial Office is reported to be asking 2,000 voters who falled to vote in a Goul- burn by-election for an explanation, Under compulsory voting laws, they can be fined up to $7 unless they have a satisfactory explanation, NOW CIVIL PRISON Reading, England--(CP)-~Read= ing jail, which in its 213-year hise tory was for a short time a Cane to be used for civilian offenders again, Maj.-Gen, Kurt Meyer was a prisoner there while en route to Canada.

Ney. BIL. - BY MISSIONS BOARD| adian Army detention barracks, is |$ SPORTS A MAGNET FOR WINNIPEG SEVEN PLAYTOWNS Youngsters Take to Scheme Teaching Citizenship Principles By DAVID McQUEEN (Canadian Press Staff Writer) Winnipeg, Aug, 6-(OP)--Quiet, sandy-haired Ed Weiss is a mayor at the age of 15, True, his civic domain is only the Aberdeen school ground in North Winnipeg, but he has a municipal council and all the other things that go with being a chief magistrate, As he walks among his youthful constituents, they greet him respectfully with, 'Hello Mr, Mayor." Ed and six others like him are key figures in a new scheme to teach Winnipeg youngsters the meaning of self-government, Under the direction of Charles Barbour, city recreation chief and former Montreal physical instructor, seven of Winnipeg's 30 playgrounds have been designated as "playtowns." Each playtown has at least one director, usually a high school or university student, but much of the organization work is left to the elected representatives of the child ren themselves, Ed and his four councillors, two girls and two boys, kegp tab on a comprehensive program designed to educate children as well as amuse them, Councillor Tommy Bryant, 10, looks after safety squads and clean-up gangs. His 14-year old brother Ronnie, who can rattle off the names of most of the big league baseball stars, is in charge of & sports program that includes everything from boxing to croquet and whist, ® The council also supervises craft and hobby activities, while a hard. working drama group is preparin, a production of "Snow White an Rose Red." Fights Are Out Ed likes his job, "It's good train. ing," he says, "The kids are fun to work with, Sure, they rib me a bit, but they're always friendly and eager to co-operate, We haven't had a single fight yet" But despite the success of the Aberdeen government, there's still plenty of work for the two directors, Norma Rodin and Sam Kantoro- vich, both University students, "Our biggest problem was in get- ting the children to come to the playground," says Sam. "The best method was to stop youngsters on the street and ask them if they'd like to get into a ball game." Bats and balls are scarce in Win- nipeg's poorer districts, and the ine vitation usually produced results, There's lots of work too, for Mr, Barbour, He does his office work in the mornings, and spends the Afternoons distributing athletic equipment, conferring with his may- ors and directors, and ironing out a host of petty difficulties, Although sports are the big drawing card for all seven play- towns, Mr, Barbour emphasizes that he's not interested in developing star athletes, "This is a program of mass recreation, and our object is to cultivate sportsmanship, citi= zenship, and a sense of cultural values." Hampton (M, Horn, Corres.) Hampton, Aug. 3--Mr, and Mrs Collacutt, Joyce and Jimmie, Salem, visited Mrs, Clarence Tomlinson, Mr, and Mrs, Harry Adaskin and son Gordon, Mr, and Mrs. Harold Brooks and Patsy, Toronto; Mr, and Mrs, Edward and son George, Oshawa, were guests of Mr, and Mrs, Geo, Farncomb, Miss Glenna Chatterton spent a few days with her sister, Mrs. Ray- mond Northey, Oshawa, Mr, and Mrs, Cecil Jeff and Wil- frid Jeff, Hamilton, visited their aumt, Mrs, Cora Allin, Mr, and Mrs, Geo, Olarke and daughter Sylvia, Oshawa, visited Mr, and Mrs, A, J, Clarke, UXBRIDGE POLICE COURT The Walter Bryant mentioned on these pages a few days ago as hav. ing a in Uxbridge Police Court is not the Walter Bryant who lives in the Village of Uxbridge. ALMIGHTY DOLLAR MEANS HEADACHES IN MODERN SPORT JACK MITCHELL on Press Staft Writer) Toronto, Aug, § =(OP)= ir i Pg ay Ome' 8 <r into a $60,000 interest in & hockey team, the seven years span- ned by that transaction saw. the dollar sign clamp a strangle-hold on Canadian sport--and squeeze some of the fun out of it, P That doesn't mean the soft-spok en, quietly-dressed theatre mane- ger, whom sport veterans remember as the rollicking "old fox" of lusty fleld lacrosse or the manager of Stanley Cup hockey champions, thinks either game any less exciting may to watch, "The commercial even make them look better from the sidelines but it's the insiders I'm talking about," he sald. "Your hockey or lacrosse player now is a serious young man can't af- ford to let up even in the off sea son; the average manager is a Jite tery worrier who hits the bicarbon« ate early." His Smartest Deal For this reason, Charlie says his "smartest deal" was when he and his co-owners sold out the old Tor- onto St, Patrick's to the present National Hockey League Maple Leafs in 1925, His end came to $50,000 for a 1018 (investment of $400 that he admits having to be "talked into." : That transaction ended the active sports trail for the slim, tricky stickhandler who won his first lace rosse title in 1800 with his native Markham, Ont, The trail led to London with the 1902 Toronto's to p before King Edward VII and ,000 lacrosse fans at Lord's; eight times to the West coast in search of Canadian lacrosse crowns and twice to Stanley Cup hockey vice tories as manager. There are mementos of these and other trium struck by a small, later- box lacrosse stick, Charlie rev: that it was a present from the veteran Joe ly or Cornwall, Ont, andy at First Base "Joe thought it might come in handy when he heard I was playing first in an executive-city coun= cil baseball benefit about five years ago," he said, "The councillor couldn't find anything in the rul book against it s0 I was 8 those wild throws pretty neatly." From his pocket comes another souvenir with a story---a heavy gold watch that has kept perfect. (] since it was presented to him by that 1809 Markham team, On watch fob is an inscribed locket, a strange tribute from a Montreal Na«- tionales team whose games with Charlie's Tdronto Tecumsehs usual- ly drew blood. "That was for earning an assist on their 1006 champlonship," Char- , "We were out of | that year and Montreal AAA. could pass the Nationales by best ing us in the final game, They were betting around Montreal we would throw the matoh because the hi As ele an English team. (} n't, "Shortly after, I'm in Montreal, Four 'big guys push into my hotel om. hand me the locket and walk ou Ad - Although he concedes the boxla version an edge over the l3-man fleld game in sustained , Char~ lie thinks the lighter stick has made stick-handling a lost art, So he goes back to the old-timers for his all-time star, Fitegerald the Best "Some pick Henry Hoobin, the Montreal Shamrocks speedster; oth« ers like the more recent Lionel Conacher; some of my friends even pump me', he 8, "For my money, nobody could touch Billy Fitsgerald, dad of the later-day 8t, Catharines star." "It cost Vancouver $5,000 in sale ary for one year to woo him west from Toronto and In those days that was money."
