They are Calgary - born John Mec- Laren, Ray Buckingham of Ottawa and Bill Nagy of Hamilton, Ont. Biggest part of the three goes to slim, dark John McLaren who plays one of the four male leads -- a United States naval officer called William Harbison. McLaren came to London in 1940 with the Canadian Army and ever since he's been tied up with British films, stage and radio. In fact, he got himself a two - year leave from the army to play "a Canadian sol- dier named Bill" in a tish war- time radio program cdlled "Front- line Family." Ray and Bill, on the other hand, start -with small supporting roles. Thirty - year - old Bill, however, is understudying the male comedy lead played by American Ray Wal- ston, and hopes to take over the part in about six months. At the moment, Nagy and Buck- ingham, who is 22, play seamen-- but with something of a difference. Ray, who came here 3% years ago as the juvenile lead in "golden city," is using his bass voice in a character role. Bill plays a typical naval comedian nicknu.med '"Stewpot." The three Canadians have one other thing in common. They all like the British stage well enough to_wdnt to stay in Britain. Bill Nagy arrived in 1949 with the cast of the American play "Death of a Salesman," starring Paul Muni.

Well, the tunnel of love at Play- land, a millon--dellar amusement park at Rockaway beach, is now cflled "the atom bomb shelter" and "to hell and back." One section shows a typical atom bomb shelter of the future. In second section the boat glides through the eerie caverns of hell, past weird scenes of troture and horror. "But none of tHe kids under 14 are scared at all," said A. Joseph Geist, president of the park. "There is an absence of fear in children today. Nothing frightens them. It show up more in adults." The re-naming of the popular old 'tunnel of love" is typical of a drastic change going on in the old- fashioned amusement park. The simple thrills that excited the kids of yesterday bore the children of today. They want something more modern--a la Buck Rogers. "We are living in an atomic age," said Geist. "And the child- ren are responsive to it. They know all about atom bombs, rockets, space ships and geiger counters. And you can't fight their interest in things like that. It's there. "The problem for amusement park designers is to try to figure out what is in the modern kid's mind. And, believe me, that takes a lot of figuring." He told of one 4 - year - old boy who . rode discontentedly on a merry - go - round, then said: the atomic fire engine? I want to ride on it." | Geist 'said many small fry en {dure the children's rides only to | please their parents, and immed- |iately demand to go on the grown- up rides. These now bear such futuristic titles as the A-dise, the cyclotron, the atomic ray booster, the buzz bomb, and the H-bomb rocket, a 60 - mile - an - hour whirl for father and son. A big favorite replacing the gay old time ferris wheel is the new flying saucer, in which the chil- dren are whirled in revolving buck- ets, And what happened to the shoot- ing gallery? It's the bazooka gun range now. Amusement parks still have colorful and glamorous Alice in Wonderland and Mother Goose villages. But Geist said only the very young children will have any- thing to do with them. After a trip in the flying saucer, even little girls think that a ride on the mina- ture train is "silly." Instead she wants to climb into an atomic jet fighter so she can | 1 a daring spin in a motor torpedo boat. And she calls for a flying sau- sage and a slug of atom juice now instead of a hotdog and a bottle of soda pop. Atom juice is a fruit drink. One old - fashioned ride, how- ever, still appeals to all the child- ren--a trip through a toy wild west town in a cart pulled by two horned white goats. Press to Help Give Couple Real Holiday Victoria, B.C. (CP) -- Newspa- pers and news agencies covering the royal tour are cooperating to give Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip a real holiday on Van- couver Island. For. the first time on their trip, there will be no flash bulbs popp- ing and no reporters scribbling notes to report their every move as Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip relax for three days this week at Eagle's Crest, an estate about 130 miles north of here on Vancouver Island. The holiday comes Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Twice daily, timed to catch even- ing and morning papers, informa- tion is to be supplied the more than 150 newspaper men by a member of the royal entourage. None of the battery of 20-odd photographers following the royal pair will be allowed to roam Eagle's Crest, but a pool photo- grapher will be standing by here. On call, he will go to the resort to take specified shots. Princess Elizabeth Really Enjoys Tour Victoria, B.C. (CP) -- Princess Elizabeth is standing up to the strain of the royal tour '"'tremend- ously," a member of the royal suite said yesterday. "She's really enjoying it," he said in reply to a reporter's ques- tion on how she was bearing up under the burden of official func- tions, public appearances and about 3000 miles of travel by train, airplane and ship.

Officials, say the explosion was caused by molten aluminum oxide !in a mould hooked to a crane. The hook slipped and the mould spilled over a wet floor which resulted in an explosion. The blast blew out several cor- rugated iron windows, sections of corrugated. iron from the factory, causing several thousand dollars damage. ® Inflation Cures Fail Average Man By HAL BOYLE | New York (AP) -- The econom- |ists are predicting inflation again. | They say that as more factories {turn to war production the supply of many civilian good will dwindle. The prices of these will naturally rise, and bingo -- inflation! The financial pundits are already giving advice on how to beat in- flation. Lately, I've been reading this adive in preference to the Tcomics page. I's funnier. One of their favorite topics is what to put your money in as "a hedge against inflation." One sug- gestion to buy diamonds and hold them. So you stroll into Tiffany's and tell the clerk: "I want that pretty bauble, and that one, and that other one over there. Just for a hedge against inflation, you know. Charge * 'em." Diamonds? The average man is in a better position bo buy ping- pong balls. You can at least go home and play a game with them, while inflation rages outside the window. Real estate is another favorite "hedge" for the experts. But the ordinary guy already is up to his pocketbook paying off the mort- gage on his house. He couldn't buy the Empire State building even with a certificate of character from the RFC. "The worst thing about this in- flation talk is the weapon it is giving wives," complained one husband. "My wife came up to me the other night and said, "well, I guess I'd better buy a fur coat quick -- they say inflation is coming.' "I told her we'd better keep the money to pay the rent. Then we could both stay warm this winter. But she bought the fur coat any- way." There are a number of people, not including wives, who feel the best way to whip inflation is to buy a three - car garage, eve through they don't need one, on the grounds they will soon be in short supply. The trouble is that the average man doesn't need a hedge against inflation. He needs a cyclone cel- lar -- and some common sense. There is no way possible he can "beat inflation" any more. than King Canute could turn back the tide. All he can do is to tighten his belt, spend his money as wise- ly as he can -- and hope for better times. American -- and the rest of the world -- have been in an inflation practically ever since the end of the last war. If it gets worse, as seems likely, it is bound to hurt the mass of the people --as in- flations always do. This country is putting much of its wealth, and productive energy in guns to buy peace. Usually you can't have guns and butter both. The theory this time is that our DUCTIVE CAPACITY HAS RISE productive capacity has risen so much that we can soon almost do that. Maybe not as much butter as we'd like -- but more butter than any other nation ever did he- fore under the same circumstances. That is our only real hedge against inflation: The ability of our industrial machine to turn out the. guns we need and the confort gadgets we like -- at the same day of poliomyelitis. He was ill a week. Meanwhile it's nice to keep a little nest egg in the bank. tuk, 22, and Ed Lonergran, 32,|° time. And it'll take some doing. | TRAFFIC RULE FEDERAL JOB SAYS COURT Ottawa (CP) -- The Supreme Court of Canada today unanimous- ly-ruled that provinces cannot con- stitutionally control interprovincial and international highway traffic. The judgment, upsetting a New Brunswick Supreme Court decision, virtually assured the federal gov- ernment that it now may obtain exclusive control over the .growing traffic between provinces and be- tween Canada and the United States. In particular the court found that New Brunswick had no right or power to prevent MacKenzie Coach Lines of Lewiston, Me., from pick- ing up or dropping off bus passen- gers at New Brunswick points on its route from Boston to Halifax and Glace Bay, N.S, All nine justices sat in on the case when argument. was heard be- fore the Supreme Court of Canada last February, Argument centred mainly on the interpretation of sec- tion 922, 10A of the British North America Act, on which Canada's constitution is- based. . Allies Fight Red Seizure 0f Village Berlin (AP) -- The western al- lies reached a united decision today to oppose the East German seizure of the village of Steinstuecken on the United States sector border of Berlin, Maj. - Gen. Lemuel Mathewson, U.S. commandant, said the British and French in a three-power parley had supported his protest to the Bussians, e Americans have demande that the Soviet control ane nullify the action of their East German police and restore Steins- tuecken to its original status. The village, in somewhat of a noman's land directly on the Soviet-Amer- ican frontier, has been functioning as part of West Berlin since 1945. Eastern authorities seized con- trol of it last week. Woman Sold Liquor Given Two Months A jail sentence of two months was meted out by Magistrate Frank S. Ebbs this morning to Mrs, Mary Senecko, 305 Drew Street, who pleaded guilty to a charge of selling liquor in an illegal place. Defence attorney was R. D. Humphreys, K.C. Detective Sergeant A. W. Alex- ander told the court how he and three other constables had raided accused's home at 4.50 a.m. on Oc- tober 14, after receiving informa- tion that two -"en were seen leav- ing the place at 3.30 with a couple of bottles of wine. Accused had admitted - selling the wine, he said, receiving $3 for two bottles. The wine was exhibited in court. The Senecko premises were declared a public place for one year, and the liquor was ordered confiscated. Drunk Driver Loses 'strange to see the LIBERAL PLAN OF: HOSPITALS 1S OUTLINE Guelph, (CP) -- Walter Thom- son, Ontario Liberal leader, said Saturday the top cost for family coverage under. the contributory hospital insurance program the Liberal party will introduce if elec- ted in the Nov. 22 Ontario election will probably be $30 a year. He outlined the scheme in ad- dresses at nomination conventions here and in the Toronto suburb of North York. He said here that in view of huge government surpluses it is overnment pointing to hospital bed" shortage and crying the Liberal scheme is impractical for this reason. Under his proposed plan, said Mr. Thomson, the ill 'will be admit- ted for treatment on a priority sys- tem based on the gravity of the ill- ness, He promised to build. hospi- tals for convalescent patients from the surpluses the government has been "boasting about." In mentioning $30 as the prob- able top fee for coverage under the plan, Mr. Thomson said that if it became apparent more money was needed to make the scheme work it would be channelled 'from some place other than taxes. The Liberal leader also outlined his party's views on labor-manage- ment relations and promised im- provements in provincial certifi- cation procedure and labor congjli- ation machinery. He said he is in favor of the voluntary revocable check-off and promised to streamline the work- men's compensation legislation, in- corporating possibly features of U.S. legislation so that compen- sation would be paid even if an injury was received off the job. Diphtheria Still Kills Unnecessarily Toronto -- Despite a marked re- duction in the number of deaths from diptheria among Canadian children in recent years (from 1,281 deaths in 1924 to 49 in 1950), dip- theria continues to play an jmpor- tant part in the mortality figures of most countries. It deserves more attention from the public than it sometimes receives, according to Dr. C. S. Anglin of the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto. "During World War Two the lead- ing epidemic disease on the Euro- pean Continent, both from the standpoint of the number of people affected and the number of deaths, was diptheria," reported Dr. Anglin in HEALTH magazine. 'The fight against diptheria in this country has been so successful that many Cana- dians' may never have heard of anyone they know sutfering from it. In spite of this, however, diptheria is still with us, bringing suffering and death to Canadian families who have not yet been reached by safe and simple immunization." The record of 25 years of effort by public health officials and the Health League of Canada to spread the doctrine of immunization would lead one to believe that the dip- theria threat should be over. But this not the case, writes Dr. Anglin, Instead, there have been 581 dip- theria deaths and 6203 cases of the disease in Canada in the past five years. "This represents an unnecessary and tragic loss of life from a pre- Business And Markets Market GRAIN:.

Ghost Vote May Be Vital In Election By JULIAN BATES London (Reuters) -- Labor and Conservative campaign managers are struggling for an almost un tapped reservoir of general elec- tion 'ghost votes' -- the sick and infirm and the thousands of old persons known never to leave their homes from one year to another. In the drive to squeeze out every possible vote, canvassers are call- ing house by house, upon the people who cannot themselves go to the polls Oct. 25 but who have the right to vote by mail. A doctor's certificate is all that's needed. The Conservatives first grasped the possibilities of this large pool of votes in the 1950 elections and were reported to have rounded up consideréible extra support. This Auto Three Months A charge of drunk driving brought Mervyn Ernest, 419 King Street West, into Magistrate's Court this morning, whc=2 he pleaded guilty and heard Magistrate F. S.

Business - Spotlight | Makers of electrical appliances are among those most affected by the proposed federal legislation which would forbid manufacturers to set the prices at which their products are to be sold. The government's planned action follows an interim report from the MacQuarrie committee, headed by Mr. Justice J. H. Cplarrie of the Supreme Court of Nov: Scotia. This report termed the prescrip- tion and enforcement of minimum resale prices '"'as manifestations of a restrictive or monopolistic prac- tice which does not promote gen- eral welfare." Some time ago the Canadian | Electrical Manufacturers Associa- {tion submitted a brief to the com- (mittee which is now nade public. | Here are some of the arguments {in favor of setting minimum prices, as seen bey CEMA in the brief and in comment from its general man- out in a press release: Price maintenance applies as a rule only to 10 or 15 per cent of all retail volume. Generally speak- ing; these are the products that re- quire costly demonstration and free service while consumer - ac- ceptance is being achieved. '"Technical goods like those man- ufactured by the electrical industry are often bought at infrequent in- tervals. Instruction in operation and skilled maintenance are im. portant in order to ensure long and efficient service. The manufacturer is entitled to suggest a price that will provide this service and should have the right to grant his sales franchise to dealers who discharge this responsibility. 'Benefits from mass production can be realized only if goods are distributed in orderly fashion. Such benefits can be lost through er- ratic marketing conditions which prevent a manufacturer from main- taining quality and continuity of production. 'e . "Control of resale prices on na- | tional brands enable small dealers to compete successfully with large department and chain stores which have completed control over the resale price of their private brands. This alone indicates that resale prices of national brands have not heen too high." TORONTO STOCKS Toronto (CP) -- Early support weakened rapidly today as stock market prices resumed last week- end's decline. Industrials, base metals and western oils dipped more than a point on the ex- change's indices in forenoon deal- ings. Constructions edged upward to form the market's strongest sec- tion. Steels and agricultures held gains and losses in balance while papers, miscellaneous industrials, liquors and banks weakened. Utili- ties and refining oils slipped steadi- y. Base metal leaders posted los- ses ranging from fractions to the $5.50 drop of Consolidated Smelter. Noranda slipped $1.25. Hudson Bay, International Nickel, Barvue, Nor- metal, Sherritt Gordon, Steep Rock and United Asbestos turned lower. Golden Manitou and Minda- Scotia countered the trend with penny gains. Western Oils showed a majority of declines. Senior golds weakened. Malartic, Mcintyre and Teck Hughes eased while Kerr Addison climbed 25 cents. Secondary issues such as Campbell, Hoyle and Magnet strengthened.
