z TALES OF A LAST VOYAGE And Now We Got Machine Yarmouth Castle: Shin Of POMPANO BEACH, Fila. (AP)--The golden years of re- tirement in the Florida sun seemed to stretch endlessly ahead for members of this area's North Broward Senior Citizens' Club. Friday, Nov. 12, was a beau- tiful, balmy day and they were going on a three-day cruise from Miami to Nassau in The Ba-| hamas. Their ship was the Yarmouth Castle, an old lady of the sea. (The Yarmouth Castle, launched in Philadelphia in 1927 for the Boston-Yarmouth, N.S. service, sailed Friday at sun- down. It couldn't have been a more perfect night for a cruise. A few minutes later the cruise ship Bahama Star sailed, also bound for Nassau.) Many club members had taken this same trip last year on the Yarmouth Castle, They talked about it so much that the club president, Loren Hicks, or- ganized another one. (Just ahead, Capt. Carl Brown of the Bahama Star noted a red- Tells How Smart We Are computer which "brain _ wapes" eaused by the-lights; "It would be like having a lawn mower which could mow your lawn, cutting down all the weeds and leaving only the good grass to stand and flourish," Dr. Barry said. All the researchers will claim is that within a predictable de- gree of error, we can at least put subjects into the high, mid- dle or low IQ (intelligence quo- tient) category," Dr. Barry isaid. At present, they don't know whether the test measures a particular aspect of intelligence or a special aptitude. However, the researchers suspect it meas- ures 'general, over-all intellec- tual efficiency. Dr. Barry said it will take about two more years and $150,- 000 to develop the method for ail those cancels except TORONTO (CP) -- Two psy- chologists at the University of Ottawa have developed an eiec- tronic technique that may measure human intelligence. Dr. W. F. Barry, associate professor in the university's faculty of psychology and edu- cation, described the technique Saturday to the Public School Principal's Association in sub- urban Etobicoke. Dr. Barry said he and John Paul Ertl, a research psycholo- gist, have discovered a connec- tion between intelligence and) the speed with which the brain responds to outside stimuli. In tests, the speed of response has corresponded closely to scores achieved in written intel- ligence tests. The faster the re- sponse, the higher the subject's intelligence. In the laboratory, the re- searchers tape small electrodes Tragedy Gayle, went with a friend, Wanda Gang. | Glenn offered to take care of the parakeet of Bill and Agnes Hill, who also made the trip. (The Castle rolled over on her side and when she slipped be- neath the surface, Brown said: "She made a sound like some- lone wailing. It was like the sad sound the wind sometimes makes -when it moans in the rig of a sailing ship.") CLUB MOURNS The bad news came and a pall of gloom fell over the retire- ment community. Through long, agonizing hours, the club mem- bers who stayed home huddled over radio. and television sets.

A series of raids began Sat- urday night when Det. Harry Midgely arrested at g int a youth in the act of robbing an east-end milk store. , Some other members of the gang escaped but police got the licence number of a car found later in nearby Pickering Town- ship. At 2 a.m. Sunday detectives, including Det. Midgely, raided a house in Pickering where three more suspects were ar- rested. In the house they found a DEALING YOUR CAR? "JACK HUGHES + practical use.

The brain's electrical responses to the flashes are fed into a Cartwright High School safe somewhere, Others were said to have survived, but were found to have been lost after all. (In Nassau's Princess Hospi- tal, a surviving,club member, Mrs. Lee Mulhaney, lay badly burned after her rescue by the) dish-orange glow in the night and he thought that "a Cunard liner had come between us and the Castle. That's the Cunard color."') SOME DIDN'T GO Irving and Annette Rose didn't take the trip, because Annette had a premonition. Some others --as if by a stroke of fate-- switched plans at the last mo- ment -and stayed at home. But nothing was going to keep} Helen Eustace from going. Helen, a widow, talked about the voyage with her neighbor, Mrs. David Milloy, and wanted her to go, too. But Mr. Milloy's mother was coming for a visit. The Milloys offered to take care| of Helen's pomeranian, Taffy. (Suddenly, Capt. Brown rTea- lized that the glow was from the Castle herself. It was the reflection of fire off her stack.) Peter Reich had his fill of ships in the navy and when his French war bride, Georgette, suggested they make the trip, he took a dim view of it. But the vivacious Georgette argued: "Come on, Peter, we've got a nice stateroom and we can live it up." OTHERS REFUSE Louis Neher and his wife Margaret tried unsuccessfully to talk the Russ Wetzlers into) going. (The evening's social activi- ties ended on the Castle at 1 a.m. and as Margaret Masters, hostess for the club group, walked back to her state- room, an orange light flickered through the jouvred bottom of a door to a storage room. ("Oh, my God," she cried, "something's on fire!" Besides the Reichs and the) Nehers, two other couples from| American Legion Post 142| signed up for the trip--George| and Sarah Crawford and Bill| and Elsie Burleigh, | (Hot, acrid smoke filled the) corridors and the Yarmouth Castle rang with the screams of the burned and the dying. Men and women, stumbling out of sleep, opened cabin doors and were driven back by flames. Dazed passengers in nightclothes groped blindly through the smoke. (They had awakened to find the Castle a holocaust). MADE TRIP AGAIN Herman Pollock, who had re- tired from a business in Phila- delphia, and his wife Minnie had taken the trip last year and they decided to go again. The Star was alongside the Castle now and she was ablaze from bow to. stern. Brown cringed at the cries coming from the doomed ship. ('Slide down the ropes or jump over the side!" he called to the dazed people on the rail. He ordered out the Star's life- boats and sailors began to lift the struggling survivors out of the water.)
