Neighbourhood Notgg CORRESPONDENT: MRS. CHAS. MILSTED GORMLEY NEWS AV. 5-1031 Telephone Gonnley 5201 Dial Press of New York has announced the publication of “The Pulse of Radar" by Sir Robert Watson-Watt. Richmond Hill and district library-goers will know this autobiography by the “father of radar" as “Three Steps to Victory." For those who enjoy reading about the magnificent side of World War II. we heartily rec- ommend this book, which flows along with such an informal, na- tural air one feels the reader is sitting with the author "on the crest of a Canadian ravine", in his study at Cranberry House, Thornhill. Outside are wooded slopes of ‘pine . . . inside the study, the walls and roof trusses of pine (over 100 years old) accentuate the strong personality of the man who states in his book. “Stimulat- ed by the modern, (in paintings. music and writing). I am soothed and caressed by the less modern." Sir Watson-Watt. who says he is a “sixth-rate mathematician. a second rate physicist, a second- rate engineer. a bit of a meteor- ologist, something of a journalist, a plausible salesman of ideas, in- terested in politics. liking to be- lieve there is some poetry in my physics, some physics in my poli- tics." is also, one perceives as they read his informative and ro- mantic book, a philosopher and a canny Scotsman.

The latest report says he will be maved to his home by the end of this present week. His friends here sent him As a prelude to the story of his development cf radar, the author refers to his ‘experience' which he likens to a thousand-piece jig- saw puzzle. ‘Each piece is cut from the original wood of my own being. but in some the pic- ture fragment is carved deeply into the wood, some have a clear bright picture gainted directly 0;: it. some have flimsy paper stuck on with austerity glue" . . . "the player in this game of experience cuts the pieces out of himself, so you should know more of me than that I ‘had something to '1' do with radar. a get well card shower.

Instead. we have a “three-ring circus of pre- scriptions for the cure of delin- quency." in which “everybody is 311 independent expert." Mr. Taylor urged very strong- ly the need for a definite pro- gram of research into the causes and cure of dblinquency. There is no real program at the present time, he claimed. Instead. we Stating that you “can't have an underworld without an over- world," Mr. Taylor stressed the importance of the general slack- ening in moral standards, and the widespread “whats in it for me” attitude. The childs’ family is the most important influence. Mr. Taylor felt. Parents must impose some restrictions on behaviour. or the child may well grow up basically lawless. The school must work in unity with the family. Recrea- tional organizations can play a part. And the Church is import- ant.. Mr. Taylor said that he could not recall an incident of a delinquent child whose family was connected with a church. By this, he said, he did not mean the case where the children are sent to Sunday School while the parents slept in, but rather where all members of the family are ac- tlveiy involved in the activities of their church. The Highland Park Association will hold its first general meeting of what is hoped to be a new per- iod of activity.on Friday evening, April 17. at 8 pm. in the Thorn- hill Public School. All ratepay- ers in Highland Park are urged to attend; in particular, those who are concerned about the possible effect of the proposed railway on the community. In conclusion, Mr. Taylor sug- gested four ways of attacking the problem of delinquency. These were: to raise our standards of conduct; to use the best scientific brains in research; to establish a program of prevention instead of “bigger locks for the barn doom” and to strengthen family life.
