10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, March 10, 1967 TWINKLING EYES WELCOME VISITORS ; SOVIETS APPROACH WIN By JOHN BEST MOSCOW (CP) -- The frail, friendly little woman with the twinkling eyes always seems to have a word of welcome for visitors to the apartment block where she works. But this afternoon she was particularly animated. Some- body had asked her what she thought of the weather. "Ah," she said, squaring her slender shoulders and straight; ening up briskly, "very good. | Very, very good. Smulating, invigorating... ." It was then something like 10 below zero fahrenheit. The woman, who is in her 70s at least, went on rapturously: "No sickness in weather like this. But when it's warm, or when the weather changes from day to day--much sickness. Peo- ple have no life." She let her shoulders sag and walked a few paces listlessly, seemingly dispirited, to illus- § trate the treachery of unseason- | _ able winter weather. The woman's attitude is @ fair representation of the Mus- covite approach to winter.

" THE ANSWER IS LOTS OF CLOTHING TER WITH VIGOR By DAVE McINTOSH OTTAWA (CP)--In sadness, but in triumph, too, the capital has said adieu to Governor- General Georges Vanier, a man whose door was open equally to the humble and the great. The body of the 78-year-old Governor - General was borne Wednesday from the Parlia- ment Buildings through bitingly cold but sunny Ottawa streets to the Roman Catholic Basilica of Notre Dame. The church bells pealed tri- umphantly instead of tolling mournfully and the mass, intro- ducing striking changes in Ro- man Catholic funeral rites, dwelt on the theme of eternal life rather than on death. From the church, where rep- resentatives of, other faiths also said prayers for Gen. Vanier, the flag-draped coffin was taken to the railway station for its final destination: Quebec City. Mme. Vanier and her family a sailor at the gun carriage fainted. Dr. Jean Vanier, a son of the Governor - General, left his position among the mourn- ers, helped the sailor to his feet and spoke words of encourage- ment to him. The sailor carried on. Dr. Jean Vanier also read the second epistle-of St. Paul to the Corinthians near the beginning of the mass. Another son, Father Benedict of the Trappist erder, read the prayers for the dead in Latin. The other children, also pres- ent, are Therese, Bernard and Michel. Father Benedict did not go to Quebec. : The mass was concelebrated by Paul-Emile Cardinal Leger, Archbishop of Montreal, and 10 bishops representing the prov- inces. They wore white vestments instead of the usual black to represent the resurrection to life ternal. To One Of Her Valiant the whole Canadian family which is in mourning today. "May the prayer of him who has entered into peace, light, and the rest of God, obtain for our country the grace to live a destiny of peace." The final prayer of the mass was: "Most merciful Father into your hands we commit the soul of our brother, Ceorges Philias."" The Vanier family had re- quested that other denomina- tions participate and three clergymen of other faiths said prayers before. the coffin was borne from 'the church on the shoulders of eight sergeants of the Royal 22nd. The clergymen were Rt. Rev. Ernest S. Reed, Anglican bishop of Ottawa, Rev. Marvin Carson of Trinity United Church, Ot- tawa, a wartime chaplain who represented the Canadian Coun- cil of Churches, and Rt. Rev. Timotheos of Toronto, a Greek 7Q US.-Viet Losses 'A Nation Bids Goodby Rising Higher SAIGON (AP) -- The highest over-all American losses of the Vietnam war were announced today, reflecting the steadily ris- ing U.S. military effort and Communist retaliation with heavier mortar attacks, mines, booby traps and hit-and-run as- saults, Casualties last week totalled 1,617 killed, wounded and miss- ing. They included 232 dead, 1,381 wounded and four missing. Most were in the small skir- mishes and fleeting jabs by the Viet Cong and North Vietna- mese that have characterized the recent fighting. While the over-all total was the highest of the war, the total 6d 232 killed was exceeded by one week in November, 1965, when 240 Americans died.

Presiding over the pandemon- jum which explodes every Fri- day and Saturday in the gov- ernment-run market is portly Abd el Aziz Homaidan, the head "salesman." He carries in his head everything you need to know about the camel business. "In this profession, skin is everything," Abd el Aziz con- fides. 'You can put a thousand camels in front of me and I can tell you the age of every one of them and what prices they'll bring just by studying their skins. Don't ask me how T do it. It's something I learned from my father." About 500 evil-tempered cam- els pour into the Cairo market every week. All come from the Sudan and there are no "'used models" among them.

Conservative Should Oust By HUGH DAVIDSON GLASGOW, Scotland (CP)-- The Conservative candidate is expected to oust the Labor gov- ernment's man in byelection voting in Glasgow today, but a fast-finishing Scottish nationalist could just beat the major parties. More than 40,000 voters in the Glasgow Pollok constituency are getting more than their share of attention on a day when British parliamentary byelec- tions are also under way in Eng- land and Wales. Labor is expected to hold Nuneaton in the English Mid- Jands and Rhondda West in Wales, although by reduced ma- jorities. Polling-day odds quoted by Glasgow bookmakers and re- sults of two opinion surveys re- inforce the expert opinion that Labor is likely to suffer the pro- test knocks traditionally di- rected against the party in power between general elec- tions. TORY FAVORED The bookies rate Tory candi- date Esmond Wright a 4-to-6 odds-on favorite to win Pollok, with Labor's Dick Douglas a narrow 5-to-4 second favorite. Odds against George Leslie be- coming the first separatist Scot- tish nationalist elected to West- minster in more than 20 years have squeezed to a creditable 6-to-1 from an outside 200-to-1 a lew weeks ago. Pollok Liberal David Miller now has the 200 - to - 1 odds against him. Communist candi- date Alex Murray, rated the most appealing performer of the five in television campaigning, nevertheless stands only a 1,000- to-1 chance by the bookmakers. | Labor had more than 52 per| cent of the Pollok votes in the general election last year, win- ning by 1,975 votes out of 40,539. Simultaneous' publication of a poll conducted nationally shows the Conservative party exactly level with the Labor govern- ment in popular opinion. Labor had an 11.5-per-cent lead in an identical poll four weeks ago. The national poll results tends to confirm estimates that Labor also will lose ground at Rhondda West and Nuneaton. But cush- ions of long-established socialist | support were expected to save | Candidate Labor's Man However, Welsh nationalist Vic Davies in Rhondda West has taken encouragement from the sensational byelection result| in Carmarthen last July 14 when Gwynfor Evans ousted Labor and became the first Welsh na- tionalist to sit at Westminster. English Nuneaton also has a| nationalist. Air Vice - Marshal Donald Bennet, one of two in- dependents among five candi- dates, is competing under the name of the National party for) the seat vacated by union chief | Frank Cousins, who quit the government last summer in pique over what he. considered its anti-labor policies. | Whatever the results, Prime, Minister Wilson's government | would suffer no more than al possible psychological shock. | Present standing in the 630-seat Commons is: Labor 357, Con-| servatives 251, Liberals 12, in- dependents 2, Speaker and offi- cials 3, vacancies 5. | | EXPORT | or FiLTER TIP CIGARETTES _ REGULAR and KINGS. armed | forces ~- the greatest Tattoo ever seen I Canada!
