NDING TIMMINS HIGH (GENEROUS GIFT TO BE MADE AND TECHNICAL SCHOOLS| BY MRS. D. A. DUNLAP S0XN NewtC ¢ passed away. Among the institutions to be specially remembered by him was the United Church, of Timmins, in which he always showed a special inâ€" terest and to which he gave support on mare than one occcasion. In Timmins and district there will be spscial interest in the plans to honour ths> memory of the late D. A. by the erection of an astronomical obâ€" servatory. The despatches from Toâ€" ronto last week gave some particulars in regard to the proposed memorial. A tentative site nas been selected a few miles north of the city, Prof. Chant stated. The telescops, the contract for which was given several months ago to the firm of Sir Howard Grubb, Parâ€" sons and Company, Newcastleâ€"onâ€"Tyne, England, will be three years in the makâ€" ing. Prof. Chant estimated it would be two and one half years before the observatory is in operation. Plans have nos yet been drawn, he said, and conâ€" struction will not likely begin for some time. The observatory will comprise two buildings, one circular metal sirucâ€" ture of the style for offices and laboraâ€" tories. There is only one ‘telescope of greater aperture in the world than the instrument planned, that on Mount Wilson in California. The acreage surrounding the observaâ€" tory will be converted into a pairk, which will be known as the David Dunlap park. The university‘s departâ€" ment of astronomy will have charge of the observatory, while the forestry faâ€" culty will develop the park. Astronomy and geology were both favourite studies of the late David Dunâ€" lap, but the former had a peculiar atâ€" traction for him. The new projecti, Prof. Chant stated, has been urder consideration for the past five years. In working out the plans, Mrs. Dunlap has had the assistance Professor Chant, one of Cangda‘s best known sirontâ€" mers. ) U 4+ TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JANUARY 8STH, 1931 FORMERLY OF TTIMMINS, NOW AT SMOOTH ROCK FALLS In ‘"Abitibi," the magazine issued monthly for the employess of the Abiâ€" tibi Power Paper Co., there is the following sketch of Tommy Kusmick, formerly of Timmins. As will be notea he was among the earliest residents of this town, and will be remembered by many here. ‘"Abitibl‘" says:â€" "The life cof Tommy Kusmick, Beach Plant Foreman, since immigrating to Canada in 1912 includes experiences all the way from pionesring in railroad construction and prospecting to the maufacture of bleached pulp. "Upon his arrival in 1912 the North country was at the beginning of a boom era. Tommy‘s first job was on the conâ€" struction of the T. N. 0. from Porquis Junction to Timmins. â€" His first trip into Timmins was on foot when that town boasted of only a few scattered shacks. The lure of the precious metal avpealed to Tommy and he therefore set out to do some prospecting. After a fruitless search of five months he went to Cobalt ‘thinking that Dame Fortune would smile on him in this field. This mining town failed to reâ€" veal the expected, so Tommy returned to Timmins securing employment with the Hollinger mine. Here he also exâ€" perienced the trials of the Porcupine fire. "In the spring of 1918 Tommy heard rumours of big doings at Smooth Rock Falls and decided to cast his lot with the pulp industry. His first job here was helping on the pipers‘ crew with whom he worked four months whereupâ€" on he reéturnéd to the Hollinger. In the fall of the same year he returned to Smooth Rock Falls securing a job on the winder of No. 1 machine later pine AMotbaitte Loaded Skip Fell on Them, and One of Them May Die. One Had His Back Broken and the Other Skull Fractured in the Acâ€" cident. TWO MEN BADLY HURT AT ABITIB! CANYON RECENTLY From Cochrans on New Year‘s Eve came the sad story of an accident that is liable to have very sericus consequâ€" erces. As a result of the accident reâ€" ferred to one man suffered a broken back and the cther a fractured skull while both of them have minor injuries as well. It is expected that the one man will not survive and the chances for the recovery of the other are not considered any too good. In case either ar both of the unfortunate men dying it is said that there will be charges cf manslaughter preferred against those held to be responschble. The despatches from Csochrane last week in referrence to the accident detailed the cirecumâ€" stances as follows:â€""John Orvalla, 30 year old Swode, suffered a broken back and badly lacsrated scalp, and John Chirmel, 26, Pole, suilgred COoncuSssiOnN of the skull, fractured right foot and lacerations, when a loaded skip fell on them while at work in No. 2 cut of the south Portal of the diversion tunnel at Abitibi Canyon at eight o‘clock FriGay night. News of the was rought out by Constable Joe Semple, O.P.P. Orvalla is not expecied to live Both men were too seriously injured to be removed to Cochrane hosprtal. Acâ€" cording to the report made to provinâ€" cial police by eyewitnesses, the steel boom on the derrick used in hoisting rock from No. 1 cut broke while raisâ€" ing a loaded skip. The same hoistman operates the hoisting derricks from both No. 1 and 2 cut, and in the excitement occasioned by the broken bsom on No. 1, he released his foot from the braks mm Nn 2 allowing the skip to fall the 1, he released his foot from the brakse on No. 2, allowing the skip to fall the full depth of the cut, landing on top of the two men. The signalman at the foot of the cut was also watching thse boom and did not see the men‘s danâ€" ger. Orvalla‘s scalp was torn almost completely from his head and his spine was seriously crushed. He was rushed unconscious to the camp hosp:tal where he was treated by the company aczctor. Orvalla, who came to the camp from Kirkland Lake, is unmarried. Chirmel is believed to have a wife in the old country. It is understcod that if either of the men die the hoistman and signalman will be held for manâ€" slaughter." being transferred to the Screen Ro and Blow Pits. "When the original unit of the Beach Plant was put into operation Tomimy was called upon to assist. His hard work was of great assistance in ironing out the difficulties often experienced in the start up of new equipment. He was later made a Beach Plant foreman which position he very ably fills." The Christmas Cheer fund in Hailleyâ€" bury helped 47 families, which was a larger number than in paust years there, but there was ample money to meet the needs. The fund was made possible chiefly through the Haileybury Turkey Stag, the Rotary Club and the I.O.DE.
