These are the first of park lands being developed under a broad program that will combine conservation and re- forestation projects with estab- lishment of recreational facili- ties throughout the Humber watershed. . Nashville Conservation Area, a five acre property in Vaughan Township on the main Humber River, 11/2 miles from Nashville, will be ready for use after July . Picnic tables and benches, washroom facilities and parking area are being completed. Fur- ther facilities will be developed for next year. A two-acre park area, Cedar Mills Conservation Area, four miles north of Bolton on High- way 50, will be ready for public use about July' 15. Here picnic tables and benches and wash- room facilities are being com- pleted. This parkette is also on the ‘main branch of the Humber, and swimming is good. Dalziel PioheeriPark, a No less impressive than this fo'wl‘s spirit of derring-do is the resourcefulness of the designers and engineers who dream up new uses for aluminumâ€"from gadgets (see above) to fumi- ture to minesweepers. It keeps Alcan’s researchers busy, work- lng with customer companies with new ideas on how to use aluminum to create lighter, more lasting products. We offer this as a Latin IabeI for a brand-new type of barn- yard fowlâ€"a skating rooster. “Buster” is reported to be a nonchalant performer on a pair of 5-inch roller skates taped to his feet.

This proved to be a riot, for Frank‘s car was hooked up with water pressure which drenched his opponents any time they came too close. From time to time, an oil bomb in the exhaust shot out smoke and flames. so the same car had to be used to put out the fire. Frank and Harry overwhelmed George and Bunny four goals to one. ‘ mused. For those interested in less strenuous sport, there was a Bingo and other games. As darkness fell, the crowd turned to the Community Hall. to dance to old time and modern music by Sally and Her Musical Mates.

The crash hurled some of the cement blocks from_his truck’s seven-ton load a quarter of a mile down the track. The fourth narrow escape in the life of the Polish immigrant, Suwary was freed‘from his ve- hicle after a bulldozer flipped it over. He walked away with only body bruises and scrapes and gasoline burns on his legs. “When it hit me, I went up in the air so high that when I looked down I thought I was up in an airplane,” he said. “Then I hit the ground and started spinning over and over.” His truck came to a rest against a fence, and frantic plant workers were unable to free him until a bulldozer was brought out. He was treated inithe office of Dr .R. A. Bigford of Maple, and released. ' Suwary said he escaped death as one of 37 survivors of a des- troyer crew of 240 when his ship was torpedoed off Greenland during the war.
