The Olympces were revived in 1896 for world competition.

Everthing ran like clockwork. Wembly Stadium, near London, England, was crowded to its zcapacity o. 90,000 for the event. A The guest speaker gave a particulariy graphic picture of the Olmpic procesâ€" sion, with the traditional rites. It took one hour and ten minutes for the procession to walk in. Sixtyâ€"one naâ€" tions were represented in the 6,945 athletes competing. The small} Greek contingent was given precedence in the procession, because of the origin of the Olympics. The hosts (the British) were in the rear. capaceity o. 98,000 for the event. A special quarterâ€"mile track had been constructed for the games. Some of the highlights noted by the speaker were:: An Englishman, who looked like one of the noble Greek statues carried the torch that lit the Grecian fire symâ€" boiic of the original Olympics. The mastorly address of the Archâ€" bishop of York, who spoke on the relâ€" igious aspect of sport. The singing by the immense gathâ€" ering of "The Hallelujah Chorus." The herocine sof the 1948 O‘lympics was a 32â€"yearâ€"old lady from Holland a wife and mother, who won fow Olympic championships. There were 750 representatives from the United States, the leading winner: among them being of Negro descent. The winner of the 400â€"metre event was a Jamaican.

"Even in the level of international politics we can see some development." Said Dr. Blatz. "It takes more to provoke a war now than it did ten or iwenty years ago." He didn‘t say whether thiswas due to the atomic bomb or whether grandma‘s woodâ€" shed played a part. "Even a few years ago the shooting of a man likc¢ Burnadotte would have precipitated a war, today, the nations want to talk itover. _ It shows advancement to the conference table before wars instead of trying to iron out the aftermtah."

"Too many people are working in inâ€" dustry and business today who will not assume any kind of responsibility for anything they do. _ The only way we‘can change this is by teaching chilâ€" dren properly." Which he means, teach them the "Blatz method." Leafs To Lunch With Kiwanis The railway legal talent cross exâ€" amined the various truckers as to their ability to set up scheduled runs and handle freight at both ends of the line. Their biggest argument seemed to be that trucks couldn‘t pros vide a good service ‘or the townsâ€" people. James Kerr said: "This type of serâ€" vice is greatly needed." He said that he had been approached by many townsmen and businessmen regarding a truck line and he felt that there was an ‘"‘unlimited amount‘"‘ of busâ€" charge wilh Miss J. ; ning the obstacle ract a plienic, Ji1e are workKIing in inâ€" iess today who will ind of responsibility _do. The only way is is by teaching chilâ€" Which he means, Blatz method." h ralled choke was insulatedl dust and sm and windows The fireme card time } afllame befor lireman was . Razes House On Middleton Ave. The railway lawyers tried to pin down the fact that Mr. Kerr hadn‘t the equipment to run such a line. "If I get a license," said Mir. Keorr, "T‘ll ge the equipment fast enough." He said that he planned to use tractor trailers between Toronto and Timmins. He said that he wauld provide two shifts of drivers and provide a daily service once he got rolling. Gregory Evans in representing Mr. Kerr stated that the small businessman of Timmins needed a more economâ€" ical servce., "Although that isn‘t a point with the Board," he said, "it is with the public." The other trucking companies deâ€" clared that they were prepared to proâ€" vide service the business of Timâ€" mins. The more economical delivery weuld in turn bring down the selling price of goods ta the customer. Another factor which wasn‘t menâ€" tioned at the meeting but which is quite important is the fact that by having transports on the roads we are more likely to have good roads in the North, especially that part of the North arcund Timmins. This may seem selâ€" fsh interest ‘but parts of a country are openned up only when there is a nged for the products of that area. There is a great need for the lumber of this area and it can be shipped by truck just as easily as by train, and cheaper. When the transports get roll ng on the highways the highways wilh have to improve as the Departâ€" ment of Highways will have to listen o the transport companies, iness to b be short 0 He said that he could provide adeâ€" quate trucking service which would, in all probability, develop into a daily service to and from Toronto. He said that he wuuuu aay oult way stations where drivers could be changed and he already had arranged fcoy The firemen were anxious to see haw he big shiny new truck would act on fire run. "It worked very efficiently," aid Chief Stanley. The firemen said hat it ran "smooth as silk." The Middleton Street fire started at .35 pm. from overheated stove pipes co near the partition. The partition vVas insulated with shavings and sawâ€" lust and smoke rolled out the doors ind windows in heavy cloying clouds. The firemen laid their hoses in reâ€" ‘ard time but the house was well flame before the water hit it. One ireman was almost thrown by the high rressure oOof the hose he held.
