He said he had been knockâ€" ed unconscious and when he came to found his head cut open. He was then sick. Boone had been found by Constable Delaney at 4.10 pm May 29 “in the process of be- ing sick on the front seat of his car”. which had crashed through a fence near the entrance of the 400 Drive-In Theatre, Con- Cession 6, Vaughan Township. Boone was too sick to get out of the car unaided, he said, and at the Vaughan police station the man was very, very un- steady on his feet and had to as- sist himself to walk. Shortly after being placed in a cell, Boone had been observed asleep, the constable testified. A part bottlé of wine was on the floor of the car, the officer said. vHe told the court that follow. ing the accident he had con- Fined $75 for driving while impaired was a man who said he suffered from acute migraine attacks that caused him to black out. attacks that could be brought on by the consumption of alcohol. William Boone, 38. of South Road, Lake Wilcox, pleaded not guilty. alleging that he had drunk only four small cups of wine, which “under normal cir- cumstances would not effect my kid." All cases resulted in convicâ€" tions. three for driving while impaired by alcohol and one for being drunk in a public place. Magistrate A. E. Newall, 0f Toronto, presided in place 0f Magistrate Russell Pearse who is vacationing in Cape Cod.

Hall was then placed in Ser- geant Delaney’s cruiser. On the way to the Vaughan Town- ship police station, Hall had tried to get his feet over the front seat of the cruiser to kick him, Constable Delaney disclosed. After this Sergeant Adams had parked his cruiser and joined him, the constable said. sulted his family doctor and a specialist on a migraine condi- tion which had troubled him for two years. and could cause stomach sickness. In conclusion Boone said he had been driving for 20 years and added, "without a driving licence I’m sunk.” (Convictions for impaired driving automati- cally carry a three month’s sus- pension of licence). Complainants had observed Hall drive into a farmyard where he struck a barn, and had seen him enter a private drive- way and strike a building. No damage was caused, testimony revealed. Both his doctor and the spe- cialist, Dr. J. A. BlakeLv, 59 Yonge Street North, Richmond Hill, told him he had acute mi- graine and advised him not to drink. he said. his testimony; that he was ac- customed to pulling off the road when his vision “goes to pin points” indicating he was about to black out. A fine of $200 or 20 days was imposed on Jack Hall, 40, of RR. 1. Rexdale, for driving while impaired by alcohol May 25. Hall, a small man with a hook arm, was arrested by Constable Barry Delaney and Sergeant William Adams of Vaughan Township Police at his home, Lot 37, on Highway 27, follow- ing complaints laid by citizens in the area. A struggle took place to get Hall into the police cruiser, be- ing driven by Sergeant Adams, but this could not be done as the man had ordered‘ his dog into the back of the cruiser, the constable testified. He showed the court some pills â€" he said they were nitro- glycerine tablets â€"- given him by the doctor for his condition. Boone explained. in the cheer- ful manner in which he gave all Before passing sentence Mag- istrate Newall remarked, "What obviously took place was that you had too much to drink, whether it was a little or a lot. You were not in a physical con- dition to drive that car.” Constable Delaney testified that when asked to get out of his car, Hall made obscene re- marks, drove back behind a building, stopped alongside a tractor-trailer, got out grasping a bottle of rye, had drunk the contents, (about two inches of rye) and then thrown the bottle away. Hall had then attempted to set a German Shepherd dog on himself and Sergeant Adams, who had arrived to give assistâ€" ancer‘the officer said. daily interest In 3 Savings Deposit Receipt Account NEWS Guaranty Trust Guaranty knows money matters No other account in Canada earns you so much interest.

COMPANY OF CANADA 44 Yong: St. South 884-1188 Counsel for the defence said there was no doubt Hall had been drunk. He said the man had lost his arm in an accident two years before in 1963 and had been hospitalized for about two years. Hall was separated from his wife, had four children to support and operated a truck- ing business, he told the court. The constable testified that Ley‘s car was weaving back and forth along the road and was travelling at between 30 and 35 mph although the speed limit was 50 mph. He followed the car for about two miles before stopping it, he said. He described Hall as being in "a violent mood". Several times he made comments to po- lice officers “that our guts would be cut out at the first opportunity," by the hook on his arm. feet said A manager of an army. navy and airforce veterans organiza- tion was fined $100 for driving while impaired April 19. Leonard Ley, 47. of 49 Regent Street, Downsview, a grand- father and father of six childâ€" ren by three marriages. was ar- rested by Constable Jack Ham~ ilton as he drove along County Road 25, Vaughan Township, in the early hours of the morning. He told the court that Ley had taken fully five minutes to extricate his licence from his wallet, and after being instruct- ed to walk twelve paces in a straight line, had walked three paces and lurched over. Sergeant Tom Shields testi- fied that at the Vaughan Police Station the man had walked "like a sailor on a boat on a rough ocean,” and had removed his jacket with abnormal delib- eration. He had declined to do any physical tests to determine drunkness, the sergeant said. At the station his nervousness accounted for {his manner of walking, he said. He described himself as a methodical man. After some discussion in the house, the police had left. Ser- geant Nixon was followed out by the accused, who was charg- ed on leaving the precincts of his property. Ley had to be assisted out of his car, his speech was slurred, his eyes glassy and heavy and his breath smelt of alcohol, the officer said. On the stand, Ley said he hadi drunk a couple of rum and cok-i es at a house at the corner of King Sideroad and Dufferin beâ€"‘ fore driving off to Maple. He explained his manner of driv- ing on County Road 25 as due the fact that he was looking for a_ driveway in whiéh to turn about," since he found he was travelling in the wrong direc~ tian. Wilfred Johnson, of 12 Birch Avenue, Richvale, was fined the minimum penalty under the Liquor Control Act â€"- $10 â€" for being drunk in a public place. Testimony by Constable Del- aney and Sergeant David Nixon of Vaughan Police diScIOSed that they had been called to investi- gate a complaint at Johnson’s house August 30. Ley was vigorously defended by J. F. Hamilton of Toronto.

The vegetabfes are lovely and fresh and there isn’t so much cold storage business as there is in this country. “What I miss so much in this marvellous coun- try of Canada is fresh fish,” said Mr. Pietersen. “Near where I lived was a fishing port, 10 or 15 miles away. The fishermen would go out about four o’clock in the morning and bring their catch into the jetty where it was put up for auction and in that way we had fresh fish on the doorstep almost immediately.” God is a popular catch as are the fish called by their Afrikaans names, kabeljauw and snoek. Snoek is the mainstay of the poor peeple of the Cape Pen- insula. Mr. Pietersen is a man with many interesting things to say about his favorite subject, South Africa. If you would like to learn more about a fas-_ cinating country, call him at 884-6880. He will speak to any interested group without charge. The snoek is a big, fighting fish, something like a barracuda. Snoek forms a very special part of the diet of the poorer people. Snoek and sweet potatoes are a staple form of food during the winter months. A snoek can weigh anything from five to 14 pounds and it costs about seven or eight dollars. There is nothing about the snoek that can’t be used except the bones, said Mr. Pietersen. CANADA, A GREAT COUNTRY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE Mr. and Mrs. Pietersen chose Canada for their future home. They landed in their new country in 1965. A fortnight later they were followed by their eldest daughter and her family. Six months later the second daughter arrived in Canada and the son and his family a year later. The youngest daughter has lived in Richmond Hill for five years as the Wife of Mr. A. Anderson, public health inspec- tor for Richmond Hill. _ _. “Canéidiiniéiér v}}>1{derful country for the young,” declared Mr. Pietersen. “Anyone with stamina and determination should make a real future hgre.” A_ The snoek is caught without a barb. The fisher- men play lines out in the water to entice the fish. Then they use a stick with a rounded knob to kill it. It’s Afrikaans name is knobkierie. Mr. Pietersen has had a lifelong interest in work concerning the blind. For four years he was vice-principal of the Athlone School for the Blind. He received his training in the London Institute of the Blind, in England. He is a life president of the Capetown Civilian Blind Society and a member of the National Council for the Blind. SCENERY MOST LIKE BANFF “I want to see Banf ,” said Mr. Pietersen. From what I hear, the scenery is much like that about Capetown.” Many tourists, particularly American, enjoy visiting Capetown. There is a cable running from the city to the top of Table Mountain and there is a. lovely marine drive right around it. _ Added to this, Mr. Pietersen was a member of the diocesan board for Anglican Churches of South Africa for thirty years. Another breathtaking scenic drive is around the slopes of the mountain. Recently Capetown acquired more fame when Dr. Christiaan Barnard performed the first heart transplant at Groote Schuur Hospital The country abounds with beautiful forests and the botanical gardens at Capetown are famous the world over. All types of flowers are, cultivated here. Mr. Pietersen stressed personal contact between teacher and pupil. “In schools where I taught, teachers had to find out the background and environment of each pupil so he was able to have a better understanding of the individual,” he aid. Mr. Pietersen adds a note of humor when he says many people believe that wild animals rove about the streets in South Africa. It is simply not true. They are in the great national parks and game reserves or zoos. “Teaching to me is a vocation, a calling if you like and not just a matter of earning a living,” said Mr. Pietersen. “One does not always see the reward immediately but when you look back and see that your efforts ,have helped to produce many types of fine professional people of which scientists, doctors, lawyers and educators are examples, you realize that your life has not been in vain.” Mr. Pietersen spent 45 years as principal of various public schools in South Africa. There are three types of schools in South Africa, the “white”, “mixed” and the native (Bantus). The teachers are paid according to the type of school they teach and this also determines their status in society. There is nostalgia in Mr. Pietersen’s recollec- tions but you could hardly blame him for he was a. teacher for many years and intimately involved with this wonderfully scenic country for almost half a. century. Rambing Around In The Spotlight TEACHING IS A CALLING ALL ABOUT SNOEK
