TIMES GAZETTE, Monday, January 10, 1955 © TV LISTINGS ~ "Tremendous' Is Word For Newfoundland's Recent Progress In Transportation By STEWART MacLEOD Canadian Press Staff Writer ST. JOHN'S Nfld, (CP)-Trans- portation and communications are major projects in Newfoundland. During the last five years nearly 600 mii of highway had been ushed through the province, 15, B00 telephone subscribers have been added and 4,000 miles of copper wire strung along fele- graph poles. But along most of the rugged 6,000-mile coastline fishermen still depend on the radio and coastal boat as they cure their own fish fn the seclusion of bays and in. lets, loading it on St. John's-bound schooners for marketing. Only on the Avalon peninsula, where one- third of the population is con- centrated, is fish sent to St. John's by truck, BIG IMPROVEMENT Roads through scattered seitle- ments help fishermen haul their fish to loading piers. New wharves and breakwaters, many built by the federal government, snable larger ships to come into po is no official on on how much all this has cost, but Premier Smallwood says it's "over "But," he 'adds, "the improve. ment is tremendous." During the last 10 years the number of cars in Newfoundland has increased from 5,043 to 22,947, and in the same period commer- clal vehicles have risen to 9.193 from 2 There is no accurate record of the number of snowmobiles In Newfoundland, but the premier says "the increase must be fan- tastic." "If ever an airplane was made for one country," he sald, "it was Newfoundland.' "And if ever a helicopter was made for one country it was New- foundland, but the snowmobile and Newfoundiand fell in love at first i VITAL ROLES The airplane, and even the heli copter, play a vital transportation role here. The single-engine air- craft of Eastern Provincial Air- ways, carrying mail and passen- gers to outlying districts, have al- ways been considered a godsend by fishermen, especially when a CBLT, TORONTO-- CHANNEL 9 sick person requires hospital treat. ment, If an aircraft can't land, the provincial department of fisheries sends one of its two chartered hell copters. Although telephone and telegraph lines are moving into many dis- tricts the main sytem of outpoi communication is still the i The three St. John's sections broad- cast, free of charge, personal mes- sages for people who write or tele- graph the stations, With a new fisheries develop. ment profrath now under way, roads will play a less important part in fish marketing. Under the new program, fish will be pro- cessed and packed in fresh fish plants scattered along the coast- line, instead of being taken to St. John's in bulk, From these plants, fish can be shipped by steamer, In Labrador, where roads and communication lines hardly exist, the radio, MONDAY 4:00-TBA 4 Bd mior Science 4 outh takes 5.00 ki a Stand 45--National News 00~-Guy Lombardo 7:30~Living 8: 90--Spectacular 9:30---Mr, Show 4 45--World Thivugh.

Marine Radio Base Saves Men's Lives SAINT JOHN, N.B. (CP)--A few miles from downtown Saint John, on a bluff overlooking the Bay of Fundy, stands a small building where men and electronics keep constant vigil over ships at sea. The transport department's mar- ine radio station at Red Head keeps the lifelines of communica- tion open around the clock, Man- ned by skilled operators, never. dheeping equipment performs func. tions ranging from the prosaic to the dramatic, The marine radio base is a vital adjunct to the port of Saint John, For 20 years it has been smooth. ing the way for deep-water traffic in and out of the harbor. Occas- ionally the station becomes the focal point of jar flung activities set in motion by an § O 8 from a ship in distress. A recent emergency signal flashed into Red Head from a freighter at the mouth of the bay after she lost her rudder in a storm, The radio station spran into action. An operator communi- cated with the ship's Saphain, ing the position of the cr ippled freighter and stating the nature of the trouble, Ships in the vicin- ity were asked to answer the sta- tion's call, transmitting their own positions, Simultaneously, transport depart- ment divisional headquarters at Halifax was notified and the RCAF air-sea fiscue branch advised. The North antic was silent exc for the emergency messages, radio operators on ship and ashore stay- ing off the air so marine rad could work with the freighter with- out interference, TOWED TO PORT An ocean-going tug out of Hali- fax Quietly churned toward the helpless ship. The freighter was fowed | to port for repairs, without loss of or cargo. The station is mostly concerned with routine duties--less spectacu- Jar but of paramount importance to shipping. Eight times ev % hours it broadcasts weather fore- casts received from Halifax, It handles docking instructions for all vessels inbound for Saint John and it facilitate quarantine clearance. 1290 Simcoe N. + KIRBY You've Never Seen It SO BIG!
