British Plan!

or The following information was ;,iecured from the December month- gty news letter issued as: "This is gai-itain": Ten thousand young ,omen have joined the British Eerritorlal (reserve) army. They , ave signed on for periods of two, three and four years. They receive their training usually after work ours in the evening, with occa- pional week-ends at training cen- tires, to fit them to man Britainis

twork of radar and to undertake pther military duties. More than half of them will serve side by side with men to direct the anti-alr- craft guns, and missiles for the protection of Britain; while other women reserves will be with sig- 'nals, ordnance and service corps. zrhey camouflage vehicles, drive trucks. repair engines, pack trop- ical kl-ts, use teleprlnters and carry on many other jobsto replace men Ej-lequired for the Armed Services. '7 These trainees must attend from tcight to fifteen days,annual camps ffor Territorial training, which are held in conjunction with Regular .Army troops. At these camps they practice activities designed to fit them for active service. They take part in mock battles and air raidal A Board selects officers from the ranks. Those chosen are given a definite training course for fifteen days.

Most of their employers allow time off for their employees to at- tend Territorial camps. Many of the Territorial Army girls get married: these are then given three months in which to decide whether they will complete their training or resign from the Force.

Athlone Fellows.

The Athlone Fellowships for re- search in 'engineering were first established. for Canadian students in 1951. The selection boards meet. at eleven Canadian Univer- sitles, to choose, each year, 38 young Canadian "Athlone Fellows" These you engineers who have shown gxrea promise, receive from the Fellowship funds tuition fees, maintenance and travelling ex- penses for two years of advanced work of their own choice, in Brit- ish Universities, industrial and re- search establishments.

The Dean of Engineering is the chairman of the annual selection board at each university. This board is made up of members of the faculty, representatives of Canadian industry, and represent- atives of the United Kingdom, and of this board Mr. James Thomson. the United Kingdom Deputy High Commlssio . was a member last year, and will be on this year's board. '

At present, there are '14 Athlone Fellows at work in Great Britain, among the key research centres. The 1952 group are located at Cambridge University, the Imper- ial College of Science and Tech- nology, the Royal College of Aero- nautics, English Electrics Ltd., Rolls-R o y c e Ltd., Metropolitan Vickers Ltd., and the National Gas Turbine Research Establishment. The 38 engineers chosen will ar- rive in Britain in September, 1953. The'1il51 group will then be re- turning to Canada, to put into practice their invaluable experi- ence, and their improved qualm- catlons should enable them to E

Television '

Last year. when we were in Britain, we had an opportunity to see fireside television at Claoton- on-Sea, Essex County, seventy-five miles from where it was being broadcast from the Bkylon, on the grounds of the Festival of Britain, on the south bank of the Thames near Waterloo Station. We were not greatly impressed by the show- ing, but were told that weather conditions were unfavourable. and that television was usually much clearer.

The dreams of Britain's televis- ion pioneers are much nearer be- ing accomplished this Christmas, when 8075. of the population of Great Britain can, if they wish. tune in on one of the five main transmitters that havegbeen estab- lished under the British Broad- casting Baslc Plan. with the com- pletion, this year, oi two addition- al high-power stations. These pi- oneers plan that Britain, which "inaugurated the world's first tele- vision service in 1936", should be the first country in the world to be welded together into one tele- vision family.

This Christmas, the March of the Kirk O'Shotts station in Lan- arkshlre, which is one oi the most powerful stations in the world, was opened in March, 1052. and will carry Christmas television programmes to Scotland for the first time. Its potential range will reach about three and one-half million people.

0 C

The Wenvoe giant transmitter, near Cardiff in Wales, the fifth and most recent BBC Station, was opened in August, and w-ill reach in Wales and the West of soot- land, another four and a half mil- lion potential viewers. All these have, since last Christmas. joined the increasingly large circle of viewers that were receiving tele- vision broadcasts provided by the great high-power stations located near Manchester, Birmingham and London.

chrisvtmassy programme sched- ules have been arranged, and drama, variety shows, children's features, pantomime and Yuletide parties will be distributed from the main London studios t?yough- out the television network or Brit- ain. In addition, Mobile Television Units will visit clrcuses and thea- tres in London, and additional units in Scotland, and near the other great stations will be relay- ing items from sports and concert halls in those areas.

Britain is also pioneering inter- national hookups. They plan. next June, to show on television in France, Holland, Belgium and Germany, the Coronation of 1-lei Gracious Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.

LESLIE LAWRENCE EDWARDS

It was on November 22nd. the saddest time of all the year when leaves are falling and all nature seems to be.dying, that the angel of death visited the Dartmouth County Hospital and took from this earth to his true home in HGIVHI. Leslie Lawrence Edwards, dearly beloved son oi Lawrence Alfred and Mrs. Edwards (nee Norma MacDonald.)

Leslie, as he was most familiarly known to his many young friends, W9-ll Just past nineteen years of age. having been born on June 5, 1933. He was a very intelligent and lovable boy. and had the happy faculty of making friends ER-Elly. His 'cheerful disposition land manly bearing made him 3 generabfavorlte not only with his schoolmates. but with all who were privileged to know him.

In his sixth year he gift”... West Kent .School, but later :1. moved to Dartmouth with his par- ents and there attended the How- thorne School where he made good progress and showed marked abil- ity. On returnlng.to Charlottetown with his parents he again enrolled in West Kent School. but was forced to leave due to Fines: when in Grade Eight.

Despite the best of medical treatment and careful observation in the Victoria General Hospital, Halifax. his condition did not irri- Drove and later resulted in blind- ness. He was then enrolled in the Halifax School for the Blind to try to further his education and fit him for life in the dark road that must of necessity be his. H0WEV9T. an all wise and merciful God had seen fit to take him to Himself and thus spare mm the hardships of a life of blindness. and so on the above mentioned date his soul passed on while he was a patient in the Dartmouth county Hospital.

The great profusion of flowers. beautiful wreaths and sprays as well as the numerous cards 'and messages received b his all testify in glowlngy is.msp?f,e'Q;:.' Dolillllliflty of this young man with all his friends who now unite their sorrow with that of his parents, brothers and sisters, namely Rita, (Mrs. Lawrence Cudmore), Vera, Tona, and Cathy, and brothers Borden and Wilfred. all of whom are at home.

His funeral which was very largely attended took place from the home of his grand-5parentg,M;-, and Mrs. Joseph MacDonald. '15 Ambrose street, where service was
