The work was anything but easy- Ind the hours anything but short but the cast devoted their time to the cause be- cause it is a worthy cause. The: proceeds from the show go to' the Kinsmen and will be used in lponsoring boys camp.

The show has been billed as thei most elaborate one ever produced in this Province and a look at the cast and program would seem tol bear out this assertion. l

By GERALD FREEMAN Canadian Prose Staff Writer HALIFAX (CPI-Ocean explorer John Sweeney. who spends his spare time under water because

he had found what he thinks is a

basin by the French more than 200 years ago.

He says I rust-stained rock may lead to remains of the fleet that sailed from France under the Due D'Anviile in 1746 to wreck venge- ance on British conquerors of the French fortress of Louisburg.

Chebucto. Instead of revenge it found only disease and miserable failure. It missed I rendezvous with French ships from the West Indies and another fleet from France. More than 2.400 sailors and troops died of scurvy and typhus. D'Anviile is believed to Iiave committed suicide as did the suc- cessor he named. The Marquis de la Jonquiere took over. ordered captured ships and some of his own burned and sunk. and left for home. No BLOW STRUCK Tossing their dead over the side as they went. the ships that had been the greatest French threat to British authority in North America sailed humbly out of the harbor without striking a blow. Actually they helped the British. The fierce Micmac Indians were staunch friends of the French but gifts from D'Anvllle's men spread typhus among them and an es- timated three-quarters of the pop- ulation dled. The Indians were in little position to resist when the British founded Halifax in 1749. Sweeney said finding the site of the scuttled ships and what re- mains of them will be of historical importance. There was a chance of finding one relatively intact. The superstitious sailors refused to sail the vessel on which the ad- mirals had committed suicide and that ship may have been scuttled by having her bottom blown out. During his first serious search for them last week he found "quite near shore" the rock he believes was a ballast stone from one of the lc gsunken men o'war. He said it bears the marks of rusty nail heads and "looked like it was on top of a pile that had been lashed down with ropes." He plans to have it analyzed to see if his guess is correct. PROBES MUD Locating the fleet in an area localized to 500.000 squhre yards is just "a matter of probing the mud and extracting things." ”It's cold." he admitted. "but when you find something you g excited and don't mind it at all. He is not paid for his dives in the

Sweeney. 32. began his undersea adventures when he was 13 in Ber- muda where his father was a doc- tor.

He calls his part time job study- ing photographs with the Nova Scotia R e s e a r c h Foundation a ”sinecure” that leaves him plenty of time to study the ocean. Doing that, Sweeney said. is a "heck of a lot of fun.”

Mr. Anderson in the course of his address on ”Highway Safety" said: "Until 1952 it was comparative-

permlt in the Province of New Brunswick. but today all new drivers are compelled to pass an examination on the rules of the road and their ability to handle and to operate I motor vehicle. Examiners throughout the Pro- vince are appointed by the Al- torney General from members of the R.C.M.P. and Municipal Police (152).

A warning given to e violator and if within a period of 365 days there has been given to a person three minor traffic warnings or two Highway traf- flc warnings. when either or both such warnings are classified as Major warnings, the violator is suspended for a period of so days. "A Highway Safety Board con- sisting of three members was formed and meets every Friday at Fredrlcton (if necessary) to hear evidence regarding rein- statement of any driver. However no application is considered for reinstatement unless the offend- ers drivers license has been in the Department for I minimum of 14 days or more.
