CORBETT News Editor PHONE 703 Role of Electronics In War and Peace Detailed To Whitby The use of gg ing Vill wm: tely change the tactics of ai Ploy war, particularly in the field of aviation, N. A, Tw w, Vice- president of Pye Canada Limited at Ajax, a company employing some 120 men and women at the present time, and a director of "the parent company in. Cam- bridge, England, with plants also in New Zealand and Australia, told the Rotary Club at its weekly juncheon at Hotel Royal Tuesday. "The speaker, who has uhvelled 46,000 miles by air since last -Feb- ruary, chiefly between Britain and iid By pointed out that in any future war electronics would play a vital role in directing fighters to hit their target so that they could not possibly miss. He went on to say that electronics would also play a big part in world develop- ment in the next fifty or a hun- dred years, because it was still more or less in the early develop- ment stage. "The speaker also saw a great fu- dure for television, for which his company manufactures many parts, and expressed regret that Qanada had been so slow in erect- ing projecting television stations in Toronto al oMntreal. For the people in the rural areas, and for the aged and infirm, visualized im- mense benefits and much enjoy- ment from television, because it would enable them to see things which they otherwise would not be- cause they were unable to get around. Mr. Twemlow asked the Rotar- ians not to judge television in its present state of development, be- cause it still had a long way to go. "What you see now on your screen you are not supposed to see from such a distance," he said, pointing out that after all distance made - quite a difference. "The further you are away the more you will be subject to interference," he said, Fhe speaker spoke of the size of the screen to be used, which was much discussed today, pointing out that the size of tne house room in which a set is installed is an all important point. He felt that the 16 inch screen was the most suit- able and popular today. Speaking of the future of color television, the speaker expressed the view that it was many years away. Right now, although the OBC in the United States had the color television franchise from the Federal] Communications Commis- sion, their engineers were not agreed on certain mechanical and technical details, so that it would probably be some years before some definite policy was adopted. Mr. Twemlow said that his com- pany in the Motherland was manu- facturing all kinds of transmission equipment and in the camera field *"had in the United States, where competition is very keen, sold a «million dollars worth of camera .* equipment. The speaker was introduced by Rotarian Dave Cudy, and thanked by Rotarian Charlie Thomas, Announcement was -made of the annual farmer's njght to be held in the Legion Hall on the evening ~ of November 27th. £ Elderly man, Polish, Says He .

Here gave himself up to Ajax police this week when he heard he was being sought. Crowd Stands Firm On Use Of Lesser Charge In court in Whitby yesterday, Evangelist Fred May sought to have Crown Attorney Alex Hall reduce a drunk driving charge which had been laid against his friend, Alexander Cox of Toronto. Mr. May thought that the "driv- ing - while - ability - is - impaired" charge would be more appropriate to the circumstances. Mr. Hall re- plied that he has found no need so far to use the lesser count and certainly had no intention of re- ducing the charge, although in cer- tain circumstances, after hearing of 'evidence, a magistrate may see fit to reduce the charge. Mr. May appeared as bondsman for Cox. After much discussion upon a suitable date for the hear- ing, it was set for next Tuesday. Mr. May contended that.he has to appear to give character evidence for the accused, which could not be properly presented in a letter, and his travels tAroughout the Dominfon make it dificult for him to find a date to be in Whithy, The information was laid by Provincial Constable C, D.

(N16) FOUND--FOUNTAIN PEN, COR. held in the Council Chamber on |his Editorial Comment In the Municipal Arena While no vital civic issues have so far been brought to the fore, ratepayers of the town should now be taking an 3 Asn H 41 interest in the forthcoming civic elections, and in the civic nominations which come before them on November 30th. It may be that in Whitby, as in other places, the pro- vincial election campaign has so far overshadowed those things in which the municipalities are more closely inter- ested. The provincial election will be held on November 22 and this leaves just eight days before the local nominations, with elections ten days later. One hears some rumblings in the municipal arena, and the election pot may be said to be simmering, but real, vital interest still appears to be lacking. Next year will be an important one in the town's history, if the growth and development of the past few years, slow as it may have seemed to come, is maintained. There are more people here than ever before and the demand for real estate is-certainly encouraging. Financially, the town may be said to be in fairly good shape, The debt of $27,000 in herited by this years' Council has been wiped out by taxation, and it may be that the civic fathers of 1952 may see their way clear 'to grant a measure of tax relief without cutting down too much. on their program of necessary civic works improvements. and It might well that next year a start will be made on one or two projected new industries for which land has been purchased at the lake, We feel that this is the hope of every citizen. The year 1952 will bring with it new problems for all of our civic bodies. Now is the opportune time to consider who are best qualified to serve on the Town Council, the Public School Board and the Public Utilities Commission, ard to see that they are nominated and elected. It is to the interest and profit of every citizen that Whitby next year has the best men and women available to administer its affairs. Mechanical Heart Opens New Fields of Surgery Utrecht, Holland (Reuters) Professor Jan Jongbloed yesterday he is ready to try out mechanical heart on a human being -- preferably a man or a woman whose life is despaired of by the doctors. A eomplicated apparatus made almost entirely of plastic has been devised to do the work of the natural heart-and-lung mechanism of the human frame. By means of it, the heart and lungs of a man undergoing a ma- Jor operation ean be put tempor- arily out of action while the surgeon gets to work. The heart can even be completely emptied of blood. Until now, people with serious heart afflictions usually could not be operated on, and had to be given up by their doetors as in- curable. But Professor Jongbloed says his mechanical heart opens up new fields in heart and lung surgery. For some years, it has been pos- sible to perform operations on the heart. But no doctor has ever dared to operate right inside the heart because any such interfer- ence was almost certain to stop the heart altogether, The new apparatus has "been used on animals, but not, so far, upon human beings. But the ex- periments on animals have been 80 successful that Professor Jong- bloed said he is prepared to - use the apparatus in operations on hu- man beings whose heart eondition is so bad that their only hope of recovery is a major operation. The selection of e patient must remain a close secret until the operation has been performed. But it is believed by medical sald | circles here that several patients have already volunteered to have the mechanical apparatus tried out on them as a last effort to save their lives. Professor "Jongbloed's mechani- cal heart is; an' instrument used outside the body to replace and take over the whole function of both the heart and lungs. While it is being used, the patient appears dead, for his own heart has stopped beating and his lungs have geased working. But life continues, for the col- lection of tubes and cylinders and bulbs pumps blood and oxygen through the body with the regular rhythm of the heartbeat and the steady bellow action of the lungs. Professor Jongbloed started his experiments with the mechanical heart in April, 19048, His first patient was a dog, which lived for 80 minutes whilst is own breathing had been stopped and its heart out of action. As the professor said afterwards: '"This was prob- ably the first mammal in the world to continue to live with two of its most important organs com- pletely stopped for a comparative- ly long time." Last year, a dog was kept alive for more than two hours by this method, and only recently the heart of another dog was totally drained of blood for more than one hour. Yet three hours later, that dog was walking around quite normally and has since registered no ill effects of any kind. As a heart operation on, a dog is, he says, more difficult than on a human Reng. he is certain that he has solved the problem of mak- ing a mechanical heart take the place of the real thing in cases of emergency.

Four Corners "Jog" Baffles Cadi, Crown The intricagies and complica- tions of driving through Whitby's "four corners" with its bothersome jog were brought out in a case in magistrate's court yesterday. A charge of careless driving which had been laid against Russell El- liott of Newtonville, .was dismissed when it was shown that he was well on his own side of Brock Street, albeit the accident hap- pened 27 feet frgm the west curb. The road is 73 feet 6 inches wide at that point, Constable W. 8. Hilliard said. Stuart Ryan, K.C., of Port Hope appeared for Mr. Elliott. First witness was Harold Ball of Whitby, with whose car Elliott col- lided on .the night of October 24. Whether or not Elliott was attempt- ing a left hand turn was not brought out in court. The left front of the two cars were in collision. Ithough Ball was well on his own ide of the road when he was in front of Snelgrove's Drug Store, by the time he negotiated the jog without "jogging" sufficiently to the eastwar, he was apparently on the west half of Brock Street. "It's eonfusing," said the magis- trate. "Case dismissed." "Why was this charge laid?" Crown Attorney Hall asked Con- stable Hilliard, "Because it appeared -to me that the .accused had driven into the path of an oncoming car," replied the officer, A Coming Events STUDENT CHRISTIAN MOVE- ment of Ontario Ladies' College Bazaar, Saturday, November 17, from 2-5 p.m. Tea, home-baking. (N14) Fifty Learning English In Night School At NINE HUNTERS| BREAK LOOSE FROMICY TRAP |Webbwood, Oni. (CP) -- Nine en, the last of 28 hunters trap- ped for a week north of Agnew Lake, reached here yesterday after what they termed "the worst hunt- ing trip in history." 8ix of the men plunged through soggy ice about a third of a mile from shore as they crossed the lake, some 30 miles north west of Sudbury, by skidding their boat over the ice. They climbed back into the boat after the ducking then reached shore by chopping a channel with axes and paddles. After reaching safety, the six re- turned to get the other three men and part of the group's equipment. The men are Reg, Ernie and Ar- thur Parod, fur-ranching brothers from Blenheim; Charlie Slocombe and Carl Pickering of Blenheim; Denis Ripley and Jack McPhail of Chatham; William Spence, Ridge- town; and James McTavish of Northwood. They said they had abandoned five deer at a camp 3% miles up the Spanish river and that other hunters from Sarnia, Bracebridge and Espanola, who preceded them across the dangerous ice during the weekend, left behind $5000 worth of equipment.

The Green Mountain potatoes which brought him, the title at the Royal Winter Fair yesterday were & variety which had been raised by his father.

The Mexican team, under Capt. Humberto Mariles, and the United States team, led by Maj. John Russell, tied for first place with clean performances. In a jump-off to decide the win- ner, the U.S, team picked up 12 faults while the Mexican jumpers || tallied only seven faults for the victory. Third place in the event was won by the Canadian team under team. captain W. R. Ballard. Mr. Bal- lard and Lt.-Col. Charles Baker got seven faults. Candidates Pl To Road Debate Resolution edge Support >-- Candidates Michael Starr T. D. Thomas have written the Whitby Town Council that if elected they will support a resolu- tion asking the provincial govern- ment to compute road costs and levies of urban municipalities on the same basis as that or separated towns and cities. This action, which has been sought by Whitby, would bring about a substantial reduction of county road costs. Police Corporal Murray Bruce reported to council that no action should he taken on the request of service station operator Frank Carr, to remove a parking meter from the boulevad in front of his premises. However, the Corporal suggested that the lines on the street be repainted, to designate the alotted space in which each car shguld be parked. - Fop the second time this year, Mrs. A. C. Allan, Mary Street East, wrote council asking for more street lights in the vicinity of her house. It was pointed out that one light has been added on this street and that, after a survey, it was in the opinion of the Streets Com- mittee, considered adequate. Mrs. Allan's letter was referred to the Streets Committee. E. H. Oke requested that a: tree in front of the OPP office on Gil- bert Street be removed. Referred to the Streets Committee. A letter from H. R. Smith, To- ronto salvage operator, asked that he be given permission to recover cetrain materials from the munici- pal dump. This matter was laid and Chas.
