lilliaEiottetown Pilot Flies Famous Ace

W. O. i. Allan Harding of Chill‘- lottetown, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gavin Harding, now a pilot on communication flight with the R. C. A. F. at Calgary, had the con- trols on the plane, which flew the famous Canadian Ace on his five day trip through the West, which included the citieg of Woylmrn, Swift Current, Medicine Hut, Cal- gary, Regina and Detlibridgc.

The following interesting refer- ence to the flight appeared in the Regina Leader Post:

CESSNA RESPONDS TO BEURLING TOUCH

The Cessna Crane roared lip off the snow-covered field of No 4i B, F. T. S , R. A. l-‘., Weyburn, and streaked off towards Swift I Current. _

‘ Seated up front ncar the pilot, lWO. Allan Harding, of Charlotte- town and Calgary, "Buzz" Bcurl- ing, D 5.0., D.F.C., D RM .and bar scanned the sky for miles around. He seemed nervous. Sqdn. dr. "Tommy" McCall. of Ottawa, said he was always like that when someone else was doing the flying.

Over to the left was a Harvard. It was keeping right up to the Crane. The well-trained Beurling eyes were on the job “It's only 300 yards away,” he shouted above the roar of the motors. The Har- vard peeled off and zoomed earth- ward.

Scans Sky

Miles had gone by. McCall was dozing, Harding was keeping s. look‘ out on the horizon. Beuriing was slouched over to one side his left harw in his pocket, his head was shifting to the right and to the left. he was watching the sky. It was as though he hadn't yet got used to flying again in s part of the world- where enemy aircraft come aiong from nowhere.

The plane dipped away clown to the left and then away down to the right. Beurling turned around grinning.

No wonder he was happy. A lad whose whole life is wrapped up in flying, he had got his hands onto the controls of n. plane for the second time that day Nonchnlant as he had appeared, he had been flying the craft for many minutes.

When he geh back east he'll be able tn tell’ the folks about the time he flew across southern Sas- katchewan.

A reporter. a squadron leader and n warrant offier can tcil about the time they flew with an air ace.

Romance And-i-lh-ythm Set ‘Iceland's’ Pace

Already hailed as one of the musical must-sees of the season, 20th Century-Fox's latest funiesi, "ll-timid." makes its ucbut locally at. the Prince Edward Theatre. Boasting the same starring team that helped make "Sun Valley Sere- nade’ a box-office sensation, the nun has zuded to this duo of some Henie and JOhu Payne, the laugh- PYw/lﬂilllg antics of Jack Oakie and the celebrated music oi Sammy may? and his Orchestra. Nor must we forget the addition of a new crop of nit tunes by songwvriters Mack Gordon and harry Warren includ- ing: "You Can't Bay No T A sol- dier," ‘Lovers’ Knot," "Lets Bring New Glory To Old Glory," "Theron Never Be Another You" and “J. Ldlti} A Military Tune."

As the name implies, "Iceland" has its locale in America's newest outpost, with all scenes laid in Rey- kjavik, the capital of Iceland. The story involves U. S. Marine Jonn Payne and dimpled Sonia llenic. Payne uses his "line" to bait soiija, but winds up being baited himself into saying "I doi" The connivance o! his own military pal, Jack Oukie, adds to the side-splitting comedy. And for comedy, 20th Century-Fox seems to have monopolized the Hollywood mart, utilizing Oakle, Bterllns Holloway. Fritz Feld and Felix hressert four of the most eu- gluing oomed an: in the business.

"The hull porter does it, sir."

_“Does he, Dlllst him." But Fergus did not say the words aloud. He went back to his room again and Jetted down some notes. The thing was to have one’; mind absolutely clear and not make n false move. The ﬁfteenth was to be the day of the big" raid on Swansea, and that was Thursday. Before then he would have everything taped, and he might even know a little more in what direction the boy Alfred's sympath- ies layl. Sometimes these intelligent Britis yokels were inwardly boiling against the tiLscipiine coupled with stupidity that held them prisoners in jobs theybiiatcd,

Fergus Letter got up and walked to the window. About three miles out to sea those planes would pass on their way to Swansea. No shut- ters to his windows. but that would not matter as Odette had shutters to hers, and very useful they had , been during the past few months.

"Come in.” He turned at a knock.

“It's only me, sir, wondering if I could do anything to help." Alfred, staring round the room, was stand- ing with his hands together.

“Oh, thanks very much. You've done a great deal to help already." Fergus spoke cordially. "How did you know I hated unpacking?”

“1 sort of felt it, sir."

"Did you indeed? Do you often feel things of that kind?” Fergus was amused. There was nothing to do at the niomcnt, so he might as well ﬁnd out anything he could about this youth. Never neglect an opportunity-how that had been drummed into him during his Heidelberg University days. What attention to detail the Germans had, and in what good stead it had stood them.

“I could dip for him. sir." said Alfred earnestly. “Jllst die for him. 0h, I know l ought not to speak to you like this. but vou won't hold it against me I know."

“No, I'm interested. I like to hear a young main like you speak your mind. It won't go any further, 1 can promise you that.”

“We're so slow," cried Alfred. “Look at us here, for instance. half asleep we are. There's only one of us that seems to me to be a bit awake." And then Alfred stopped dead. Had he gone too far? His queer intuitive brain vmiwd for its reaction. No, he was all right. He stood with eyes cast clovrn.

“Whds wide awake down here?" Fergus was laughing, Nice hearty laughter, useful for encouraging conﬁdences. .

"Well, its like this, sir.” Alfred came picking his way across the carpet. “It's this, sir. 'f‘herc'5 a young lady here, sir. 1 won't say her name, better not. But I've a feeling that she’s Ln Hitler's pay, s
