Yeo said that in addition to passenger were forced to jump for their lives from their car Saturday night on Highway 401 when an explosion of unknown origin set fire to their vehicle. The mishap occurred near Dar- lington Provincial Park. Kenneth Render, 20, of 1926 King street east, Hamilton, owner of the car, and LAC Ren- ald Tremblay, 19, of Winnipeg, escaped with singed hair and eyebrows but lost all the per- sonal articles they had in the car. Render said that he had pur- chased the car only six hours earlier from a Hamilton dealer tor 3500 and had paid $250 cash, land the remainder by cheque, He had purchased the car, he said, to drive to his parents' home, at Oxford Mills, near Kemptville. As he passed through Whitby, he picked up Tremblay who was hitchhiking from the air jstation at Winnipeg to his par- ents' home at Lacolle, Quebec, jon a 27-day leave. |WINDSHIELD OUT | "We were driving along about ' ' { ' 155 mph," said Render after gi 3 j t - the explosion, "when 'boom' : ; . a Ace > 1" and the windshield blew out."

Blast Forces Pair Jump Car out of the car before it rolled to a stop, by now a mass of flames, "The explosion knocked both our hats off," said Tremblay. "I didn't have time to grab my kit before I jumped. We were still going about 10 mph when I hit the highway." He said that at first he thought the gasoline tank had blown up. Tremblay's overcoat was also in the blast, Both men lost their hats in the car. Render said that he tried to get back to the car to re- trieve some of his personal belongings in the car but the heat forced him back. Neither Render, who works in a garage in Hamilton, nor Tremblay could suggest what might have exploded in the car, The Oshawa Fire Brigade was called to quell the blaze but the vehicle is considered a total loss. Render's uncle arrived later in the evening to pick him up at the Whitby Ontario Provin- cial Police Detachment office to take him back to Hamilton. Tremblay was picked up at the detachment office by an RCAF truck. Before proceeding on his trip home he requires a new greatcoat and cap. | ra RENDER, LEFT, AND TREMBLAY AWAIT TRANSPORTATION Trading Stamp Issue Raised Again InBC. | VANCOUVER (CP)--Big busi-/ again in British] into the big food | Launching of trading stamp) ,|schemes by three food chains|huge 1 1 B.C. recently revived an is-;by the sudden passing of one ofjand Bernice Mairs, had been| sue thought resolved in 1960\the beloved members, Taylor. } j:lation supplementary to the|and business was dispensed with)the co-convener, Mabel Chap- Criminal Code to ban the|in short order to enable the man, PM, and members of the |members to entertain their hus-/ committee, Cheer Baskets were; v t amps. .
