HELP NEEDED IN WEST The other night relatives of Jack Wilson, Green Street, called from their farm home near Eaton, Sas- katchewan to see how the help situation was in this part of On- tario. Farmers out there need help in the worst way for the next six or eight weeks. They are -of- fering wages which compare favor- ably with the best being paid in this part of Oiitario, good board and good working conditions. 'Mr. Wil- son would like to get in touch with any local lads who would be will- ing to be footloose for a couple of months. He would furnish them with further information about working conditions in tHe West. CARS IN COLLISION An accident without serious con- sequences took place on Byron Street just south of Dundas on Sat- urday afternoon. Clarence Huard, 119 Annes Street, Whitby, was go- ing south and was about to make a left hand turn. He was in col- lision with William G. Brown, 56 Grainer Avenue, Scarborough. SCHOOL FOR LEADERS Some 150 women members of the Women's Missionary Society of the United Church of Canada, today began a four-day conference at the Ontario Ladies' College here. Ob- ject of this gathering, held yearly, is that it provides a training ground for leaders. Reports of its activities will be given on this page beginning tomorrow. Community Chest Drive October 9 The Whitby Community Chest organization has set Tuesday, Oc- tober 9th, as the tentative date for the annual joint appeal on behalf of local organizations carrying on community work in the town. Wil- liam Davidson is president and Charles King, campaign manager. A more compiete announcement will be made later. Last year organizations sharing in the campaign proceeds were the IODE,. Victorian Order of Nurses, Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, Canadian National Ingtitute for the Blind, the Salvation Army and the Whitby Recreation Association. The ob- jective of $6,045 was realized ex- cept for a few dollars, Between now and the campaign opening date an effort will be made by the Publicity Committee to place before the citizens the work being carried on by the various organizations and their plans for, the future. Views of various citi- zens on the campaign will also be obtained. New School's Water From Whitby Pipes When the Pickering District High Schools opens in two weeks, there will be water in the school system but not Ajax water, as had been hoped and planned for. It will not even be Pickering's well water. e Lake Ontario water from by will be supplied to the school's taps, it is learned. The sup- ply will be tank-truckéd from Whit- by and stored in cement tanks, now under construction. It is understood that a contract for trucking the water has already been let to a Pickering firm. This will be a profitable operation for the Whitby PUC which sells the water to a number of professional 7 ber of commerce. Mexican Fiesta Moves to Dawson City Queen of the first Fiesta of the North in Dawson Creek, B.C. is seen above as she rode through the fiesta- time crowds. The three-day Fiesta--almost the length of a. continent from its Mexican home-- brought thousands of northern Canadian residents to the B.C. town near the border of Alaska. Queen )f the Fiesta was Miss Dolores Jordan of Grande Prairie, Alberta, who won her crown from contestants Pearl LaLodge. of Pouce Coupe, B.C. and Leona Thompson of Dawson Creek, B.C.

SURVIVOR OF FALLS DROP WARNED HILL - Niagara Falls, N.Y. (AP) Around here they point to stocky, cocky Jean Lussier, tug your sleeve and whisper, 'he's the only one alive who made it over the falls." It was 23 years ago when Lussier tucked his five-fooi-five frame into a six-foot rubber bvall and rode comfortably over the Canadian Falls to be the third and last per- son to pull the stunt and survive. Since then, two others have gone over the 165-foot horseshoe catar- act and perished. One other died before Lussier's successful stunt. Most recent of the three fatal tries was that of William (Red) Hill, Jr., of Niagara Falls, Ont.-- son of a man who earned fame around the river and falls but claimed the barrel caper was a "fool's stunt."" Red Hill, Jr., went over Aug. 5 in a flimsy "barrel" made of 14 old truck innertubes bound together with cotton webbing and fishnet. Swirling waters ripped the contraption apart. Hill's death brought renewed ef- forts by Ontario officials to stop the stunts. For years police have been discouraging some would-be stunters pulling same bodily from their barrels and being ignor- ed by others. There's nothing new about going over the falls. Legend has it that when the Seneca Indians lived on the banks of the river, a fair maid- en was sent over in a canoe every six months as a sacrifice to Onia- grarah (the Indian name for Ni- agara). After the Indians came the barrel stunters, led by a Michigan school teacher in October, 1901. Mrs. Annie Edson Taylor, a native of a hamlet near Auburn, N.Y. lived through the drop in a wooden bar- rel. She said she just wanted to do something no one else had ever done--besides, she added, she was recently widowed and broke. Al- though luck dropped Mrs. Taylor's barrel free of the rocks, it let her down later. She died in a poor- house. The next trip was also success- ful, even if it did injure the stunt- er, Englishman Bobby Leach who made the drop in a steel barrel in July, 1911. He spent 23 weeks in a hospital getting mended. Leach later moved to New Zea- land. +He died there in 1926 after slipping on an orange peel and hit- ting his head on the sidewalk. A Bristol, Eng., barber was the first to die in the stunt. George Stevens used a wooden barrel that was smashed apart in July, 1921. He left a widow and 14 children. A chef from Buffalo was the sec- ond to die trying. George Stathakis was suffocated when his wood and steel barrel was trapped for 22 hours behind the curtain of the falls in July, 1930. S A knowledge of physics and rub- ber works bounced Lussier over the falls on July 5, 1928. PEACEFUL USE OF A-POWER IS IN BALANCE Washington (AP) -- This year may tell the story of atomic power for civilian use--whether it has a good chance of becoming a reality or whether it will. remain 'pie in the sky." Officials of the Atomic Energy Commission indicate much depends upon the success of some tests which they say could begin by September. These are the first operational tests of an experimental device known as a "breeder," already erected at the AEC's testing 'sta- tion at Arco, Idaho. The device is designed to make new atomic fuel faster than it is consumed in keeping the machine going. If it works it would mean that United States resources of useable uranium for bomb materials or possible power use would be. in- creased 140 times. It would mean too that the U.S. ®ould also utilize the element tor- ium, which is more plentiful than uranium in nature, as a source of fissionable material. Dr. Lawrence Hafstad, director of the AEC's program of develop- ing machines for the controlled re- lease of atomic energy is on re- cord as saying: "Civilian power (from the atom) will remain pie in the sky unless, by a break in the breeder program or some other solution to the raw material problem, a more ample supply of fissionable material can be produced." Hafsted has also said that "un- less the breeding of new fuel be comes successful, the probability | of civilian use of atomic power is dim." , Nevertheless, various statements by AEC officials indicate that if the fuel breeding problem is lick- ed, the outlook for harnessing the atom's power for civilian use is pretty bright. The breeding problem goes back b the .way uranium exists in na- ure. There are two principal kinds of uranium -- Uranium 238 and Uran- ium 235. Only U-235 can be used of itself as a material for bombs or other atomic purposes. And U-235 is only 1-140 as plentiful as U-238. It can be separated from U-238, but only by a laborious process. U-238, however, is not a washout. It can be converted into another material, plutonium, which is at least as good as U-235 for bombs and other purposes. But to make plutonium from U-238 you have to use U-235 as a fuel. And the amount of plutonium pro- | duced is less than the amount of U-235 needed. In theory, it is possible to do so. Every time an atom of U-235 is split it releases an average of 2% neutrons--- atomic bullets needed to split other atoms and keep a chain reaction going. If no neutrons were wasted, one neutron from each splitting would go to sustain the chain reaction, leaving 1% to breed new fuel. On paper this is okay, but in United Church At Ajax Had Fine Vacation School Again the United Church of Can- ada in Ajax with Rev. A. H. Mcs Lachlan as minister has success- fully concluded a ten-day session of the Daily Vacation Bible: School. Thursday afternoon 100 pupils with their mothers met for the final ses- sion. This year the school has been under the capable leadership of Mrs. Grace Clayton and the minis- ter. Mrs. Clayton, Mrs. Edwards and | Rev. McLachaln directed the Bible Study. Mrs. K. McIver and Mrs, O. Pickell assisted by Mrs. Cliff Mills were in charge of the handi- craft for girls. Beautiful doll dresses were ad- mired as well as blocks for quilts to be sent to a mission: hospital. Boys handicraft was- directed by the minister and blocks for 8.8. Nursery School were made as well as plaques for walls. The begin- ners were in charge of Mrs. Hewie and Mrs. Schrane. Their display of a Kindergarten nature was also greatly admired. Other assistants were Mrs. Clapham, Shirley Arse- nault, Clarissa Edwards, Linda Clayton and Barbara Degeer and Robert Udall. At the closing of the session a well presented program was given by the pupils and after viewing the fine display of work all were enter- tained at a social hour when cook- ies and creamsicles were served.

Proves Great Success One of the best planned most successful sports events by has ever seen was the Softball Tournament Saturday night when crack Toronto teams came to town to show their mettle. The affair was the brain-child of Foster Kelsey, manager of the Whitby "Torches." With the as- sistance of Fred Hatch, Len Cooper, Marvyn Platts, Mrs. William Courtney and others the affair was promoted, prepared and run off, without a hitch. Successful ticket sales by the "Wolverines" made the day a financial success. About $200 was cleared which will be used for the promotion of Junior and Juvenile girls sport in the district. In the first fixture of the even- ing, Bob Cameron's Toronto team defeated the Torches 7-2.' Under floodlights the high-flying People's Credit Jewelers beat Cunningham and Hill 12-6. Each team got an even 11 hits. In this senior game, three homers were clouted out by June Nagy, Stevey Kitchen for Peoples and Kay Catama for C-H During the game an informative, running commentary was kept up by Mr. Kelsey at the microphone. In the opening game the best hit was a triple by Camerons' Joan Vella. All through it was a fast, clean game. The People's catcher, Joe Kirk was ten hitter of the night with three hits in four tries, An interesting sidelight to illus- trate the difficulty the top city teams have wedging in an exhibi- tion game is that People's had played the night previously, Satur- day night, Sunday afternoon at Sunnyside Stadium and the same team has league games tonight, Wednesday and Friday. Two presentations were made. Captain of the Torches, Moira '0' Connor, gave to Lyle Best, manag- er of C-H a natty baseball-style tie clip and cuff links and to Mrs. Best, an orchid. Joyce Richards, Captain of the Camerons made a presentation to Doris Clarke of Whitby, the player who has shown the most improve- ment this season. It was a Black Diamond glove donated by the Cameron's sponsor. Though the season is nearing a close, it is certain that next year will see six junior girls teams in softball. The Torches will have to replay a game tonight in Oshawa-- 5.45 at Radio Park. One other highlight of the Satur- day evening show was the drawing for 44 prizes most of which were provided through the generosity of local merchants, Brandon Mural Wins CNE Prize Toronto (CP) -- Twelve-year-old John Chudzik of Brandon, Man, is coming to town to collect $100. John will be a guest of the Cana- dian National Exhibition and the $100 goes to his fellow students at David Livingstone school, Brandon, for their prize winning mural "This is Where I Live." The mural topped entries from schools across the dominion. It shows the development of the oil industry in Canada and was pro- duced by 30 Grade 6 pupils. John, who has never previously been to Toronto or the ONE, was chosen by his principal to accept the prize money on behalf of his fellow artists. wii: (Oshawa Man Wins TV Set Of Ajax Legion B. Byrnes, 44 McLaughlin Houle- vard, Oshawa, was winner of a Pye television set, the major prize at the Ajax Canadian Legion carnival Saturday night. The carnival held in the recreation hall, attracted many persons and was quite suc- cessful. Among those contributing to the large amount of work en- tatled in putting on such a show were the president, Jack Birney, Charles Cross, Bill Lockett and Jos- eph Crowe. Seller of the lucky ticket and himself winner of a $50 bond was Peter Marcotte of Ajax. Last year Mr. Marcotte also sold the winning ticket and at that time also receiv- ed a bond for his trouble. Keep Them Busy They'll Be Happy Police Formula Dundas, Ont. (CP)--Kids in this. | town don't duck out of sight when they see a policeman. Any: run- ning done is in the other direc- tion. Chief Earl Jack says his only problem with youngsters--in this town where there are no juvenile delinquents -- is that he can't re- member all their names. In many instances, the police are closer to the younger citizens than are their parents. For seven years, no adolescent has appeared in court here. - Yet, on one occasion 10 years ago, 39 boys were in custody at one time. The empty police blotter, says Chief Jack, comes from a full pro- gram of activity for. adolescents. Sports, a band and a glee club make up the program.

"A pin prick could have ruined Red's barrel," he says. "I told him, too." Jean says authorities should let people go ahead and try trips over the falls. But, he adds, they should first examine the craft and then see if the daredevil is physically and * mentally sound enough to make the trip. "The world nceds people - with nerve.
