At that time there was no softball played in this part of the North. Such a game would ‘ have been considered toon effeminate for the hardy heâ€"men of 1921. One ibaseball game given a co::mn and a half of space was played at TIroquois Falls in the district baseâ€" ball league. Timmins lost this game, the score being 7 to 6. The battery for the Falls was Little and Mofrrison, while Farr and McIntyre were the battery for Timmins. "It was a great game," The Advance said at the time, and the twenty years since show no reason to change this opinion. in regard to the other popular sport of 1921, The Advance among other things, said:â€"‘"The second schedule for the Dickson Cup seriesâ€" is now under way. The Dome having won the King Cup is now out strong for the other trophy, ‘but Timmins intends to give them a bonnie battle for it.. The first of the Dickson Cup matches is scheduled. for toâ€"day at Cochrane between Timmins and Cochâ€" rane. _On Friday of this week the Dome is scheduled to play at Kirkland Lake, and on Saturday Cochrane is to play at Iroquois Falls. The games in the Dickson Cup series run on until the ‘middle of September, the last game being Kirkland Lake at Domes Mlnas Sept. 17th." According to figures given in The Advance twenty years ago, this town of Timmins in 1921 had a population of 6000. Freight receipts for the year 1920 were $725,000.00. ‘The payroll of the year was $4,500,000.00. _ Bank clearings for the year amounted to $7,000,000. __It should be of special interest to recall from the columns of The Adâ€" vance that in 1921 the Dominion Geological Survey undertook the work of making a complete survey of the Belcher Islands in Hudson ‘Bay.

Phone 362 Fighter Pilots Earn Their Wings at Canada‘s Great Flying School Interesting Description of Ten Weeks‘ Training Period at Camp Borden. ‘Everything at Camp Borden is "Larger and Faster," When Pilots Get Their Wings. . This is the seventh in a series of the 1 Canadian Air Force and the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan, written for the weekly newspapers of Ontario. (By Hugh Templin) Camp : Borden â€"~is Canada‘s best known flying school. With its six square miles of flat, sandy land, it is probably the largest as well. IG was an air training camp during the last Great War, from 1914 to 1918. In those farâ€"off days, it wasn‘t too popuâ€" lar. Sand got into the buildings and the clothing and the food. Occasionâ€" ally a veteran pilot remarks: "I wonâ€" der if the old hangars are still at Camp Borden." The pilots of the last war would see many changes. Some of the old buildings remain but they are hard to find among all the new ones. The sand is now subdued, with green grass holding it down, though it was necesâ€" sary to keep the seed in place with wire netting on some of the dunes until it sprouted. The administration buildings and some others are of perâ€" manent brick. Camp Borden is now the No. 1 Servâ€" ice Flying Training School of the Royal Canadian Air Force. My own guess is that it is also the largest and in some ways the finest air school on the continent. It is developing rapidly. I visited the RC.A.F. at Camp Borden twice. Within a few months, I found notable changes, particularly the fact that the collection of assorted planes at the camp last fall has been replacedl by long lines of sleek Harvards, with a few Yales. (It is another indication of the way the supply of training craft has caught up to the needs. d Ten Weeks of Flying Of the six months necessary for the training of a pilot in Canada, the last ten weeks are spent at Camp Borden or some .of the other Service Flying Training Schools. On arrival, the student, now with the rank of Leadâ€" ing Aircraftman, is a!blo to fly a plane at a hundred miles an ‘hour or so. He has learned to find his way across country, has done simple aerobatics (or stunts, if you like) and has had lectures on a variety of subjects from signals to navigation. twenty years ago of the match at ‘F between the Dome and the Timmins football teams in the King Cup series For the first time in the series the Dome lost a point. The reâ€" sult of the match was a draw, 0 to 0. The ‘match was one of the most exâ€" citing held on the Timmins ground and both teams played fine football. The score indicated the excellent work of the two goalies. ‘The players for the Dome were:â€"Eldrick, goal; J. Fell, H. Ewari, H. Costain, R. Harrower, W. Kellow, <R. Wallace, R. Richie, G. Hendry, Corboy, and T. Lucas. Tur Timmins‘G. Cadman was in goal, and the others on the lineâ€"up were:â€"E. Street, A. Roberts, J. Twaddls, W. F. B. Cadman, A. Cadman, Geo. Cooper, and T.

Hay. Advanced flying is taught by experiâ€" enced pilots at Camp Borden. The sleek and lovely Harvards fly at speeds over 200 miles an hour. They are tnc yellow, noisy, singleâ€"motored craft often seen in the air over Soutn«n Ontario. Everything at Camp Borden is larger or faster. The three main ruaways are paved strips 3300 feet long and 600 feet wide. Commercial airports near the largest cities are tiny by comparison. Even that isn‘t suffiâ€" cient. There are two auxiliary landing fields at Edenvale and Alliston, each as large as a commercial field, but used only in cases of emergency. Other things are speeded u> aSs well. Planes sometimes seem to rise in swarms; a control tower is necessary to sort out the traffic. It is said1 that landings in a year may number 250,â€" 000. Gasoline consumption is enorâ€" mous. Lectures Still Continue On my second trip to Camp Borden, I arrived at the gate just as a black thunderstorm swept over the plains. Six or seven pilots were up when the storm arrived and they had to stay up till conditions became more suitâ€" able. It was an hour before the last one was down and the crew in the control tower breathed a sigh of reâ€" lief. No damage had been done and the young pilots had gained valuabie experience. ‘\It was no day to stay outside, so I talked with Squadron Leader Carter, the Commanding Officer, who has since been transferred to a new schonl at Claresholm, Alberta.

Around the edges of the hang all kinds of odd things that mean nothing to the outsider, but mucha to the pilots.

In the Control Tower: The flying field at Camp Borden is a huge flat plain. Because of the sandy soil, it dries quickly after a rain. Huge, paved runways crissâ€"cross the field, giving ample room for landing, no matter what the wind direction. On the edge of the field, near the hanâ€" gars, rises the control tower, which is the nerve centre of the flying field. Inside the glassedâ€"in compartmert on top of the tower is a crew of three or four, surrounded by instruments and signalling equipment. On a desk is a list of all planes in use, with the numbers, the names of the pilots and other information, As each plane comes down the runway, it gets a sigâ€" nal from the tower with an Aldis lawmp then gains speed, takes the proper runway, and is off into the air.

The signal lamp is about the size of a large automobile headlight, with a lens that concentrates a powetrâ€" ful ray of light in a narrow beam. Above the lamp is a sighting tube, so that the ray of light can be aimed acâ€" curately, and underneath are a pistol grip and trigger. Words in Morse code can be sent, or different colored lights used. A green signal gives the pilot the sign to g0; a red.to stop. ~As a more general signalâ€"â€"to pilots in the air, Very lights are used. They are bright flares, like glorified Roman candles fired from large Very pistols. The flare looks like an oversized shotâ€" gun shell, and fits into a pistol with a large barrel. A red flare indicates that something is wrong; the white is a general recall, the green a signal The Alidis lamp is used for signalâ€" ling in the Air Force and the Navy, both day and night.

In token of this, he is given his "wings" and the rank of Sergeant Pilot. | The wings cerempony is simple and impressive. The graduates stand in the centre of a hollow square, with their comrades around them. Among the class may be young men from Australia, New Zealand, England and scotland, the Straits Settlements or other parts of the Empire. There are likely to be some Americans and a large proportion of Canadians. The Commanding Officer calls out the names of the graduates, one by one. They drop back a pace or two, march down to the end of the line, around the front and then proudly up the©: centre. A salute is returned by 0O.C. and he pins the pilot badge, a pair of wings, with the letters, "RCAF." (for the Cansadians), surâ€" mounted by a crown, on the breast of the tunic, offers congratulations and a handshake. This is ‘one time when visitors are present, usually relatives who come to see the graduation cereâ€" mony. Most of the graduates of Camp Borden are "single seater" fighting pilots. _ They have been trainec in the Harvards by day and by night. They gre taught to find their way across country alone in all kinds of weather, to use machine guns and advanced gun sights They will take over‘ the Hurricanes, ‘the SpRMfires and still newer models after some further training in England. But a few are trained as bomber pilots. They use the Avro a slower, twinâ€" engined plane. As the various camps are turning to specialized work, the bomber pilots will probably be going to other. schools in future.
