CORBETT News Editor PHONE 703 (Gay Nineties Review Feature Of Brooklin Show ! Brooklin town hall was filled last night with an eager audience who listened appreciatively through the entertaining sprogram of the Brooklin Public and High Schools Spring "Music Festival. Pupils from all grades took part, under the "direction of Miss Janet Spratt. With the heart-warming "strains of "Sweet Ad-o-line," sung -in traditional off-key "parbershop style by Don McDuff and Irwin Gibson, the grand inale of the show took form in choruses of "The Gay "Nineties Review." "" An outstanding soloist of this re- "view was Elisabeth Demming whose sweet, true voice was heard to ad- vantage in "Alice Blue Gown" and she was joined by Ann Goodwin and Jean Duval in a trio. All the "choruses registered well. Accom- panist was Mrs. P. N. Spratt. The smaller childrén also per- formed well both in song and drama. Mrs, Gray's grades one and two put on a short operetta, "As We Walk in the Woods", featuring all the pupils of those grades, Mrs. PDuncan's boys and girls gave a special version of the well-beloved "Three Pigs" in which the charac- fers were portrayed by Marion Mantle, Keith Kaine, Bill Batty, Billy Asling and Charles Grandy, and Elaine Spencer as narrator. A specialty dance on the program was the Highland Fling done by Doreen Lockett and Jean Bell. Throughout the program, the costume numbers were attractiyely colorful and well 'prepared. A small amount of unac- companied singing demonstrated that Miss Spratt has not neglected this important phase of musical training. A snappy square dance number was given by Miss Rogers' room in which Dave Cunningham and Grant Mowbray were the callers while Fid- dler Bill Clarke kept up the rhythm. Grades three and four looked good in an Irish Dance and the little tots of grades one and two kept pace with their elders in two other folk dance numbers. During the program the teachers assisted with the detail and had helped with the preliminary train- | ing in the hours when the teacher of music could not be present. Prin- cipal John Kaine and D. W, Thomp- sen also were on the job last night, The hall was filled and every num- ber received hearty applause. Cards of Thanks Ted Hewlett wishes to take this opportunity of expressing his appre- ciation and thanks to the Whitby Rotary Club, the male staff of the Ontario Hospital, also Mr. Town, Mr. J.

New Atomic Flashlight Spots Tumors In Brain New York, May 4 (AP)--A new atomic flashlight for locating brain tumors was announced yesterday in Science, official journal of Amer- ican scientists. The atomic flash works like an ordinary flashlight would if it had two ends and shot beams simul- taneously out of each one. The atomic flash is made by positions-- electrons with a positive electrical arge. Ordinary electrons have a nega- tive charge. This is the first prac- tical use for positions since their disc y more than 15 years ago. WANTED TO RENT -- AUTQMO- tive parts, manager, new to Whitby, desires house, for May or June.

Positrons are emitted by some kinds of radioactive bombs. Such atoms are made in the atomic re- actors that also produce bombs. When a positron is emitted it lasts only a few millionths of a second. Then it meets a negative electron, the two disappear, and in their place appear two gamma rays, travelling in opposite directions. Gamma rays are identical with X- rays. This union of positron and elec- trons makes the atomic flashlight. When the substance emitting posi~ trons is placed inside a cancer in the brain. The gamma rays are powerful enough to penetrate the skull, New-type counters pick up these rays and identify them. Each double-end flash comes from the cancer. Each one appears re- spectively on the opposite side of the skull and this draws a straight line through the cancer. These lines in different planes locate the cane cer precisely. The methods by which this is dene were developed at Duke Un- iversity, Durham, N.C. The positron-emitting atoms are placed in a dye that concentrates in brain cancers. Injecting this dye into the blood lights up the cancer. Dial 2064 Whitby. (My13) Articles For Sale PROTECT YOUR GOOD BLAN- kets from moths for 26c a year.
