Island Odds And Ends

June second is a. date seared on the memo y of many veterans of the First World War. and pe.rticu- larly those ex-members of the old Third Canadian Division who sur- vived the osdeel to which they were exposed on that date thirty- six years ago. A number of these men have also survived the inter- vening years. and of this group who have withstood the passing of time some live here on the Island.

The scene was the dread Ypres salient, long a death trap for troops ol the British and Canad- ian armiu. On that June mcming thirty-six years ago. massed Ger- man batterlee ringing the deep salient which extended into the enemy lines. opened a furious bom- bardment. with pin-point accuracy on the Canadian positions. Firing on targets from front, both flanks and almost from the rear on the most forward Canadian positions, the Germans systematically de- stroyed trenches and strong points, communicat and gun positions. With characteristic tho they confined the rain of hell: to the area which had been marked for destruction and hardly a yard of the terrain escaped the fury of the prolonged barrage. Casualties mounted rapidly in the Canadian lines. where trenches and shelters built in the soggy soil of Flanders were soon a shambles, from the weight of gun fire.

0 O I

Just prior to the infantry attack which fouowed the hours of shell- ing. the enemy exploded several mines which had been tunneiled under the Canadian positions. kill- ing and wounding several hundred of those who had endured the long bombardme i. and remained unin- Jured.

The attack which followed was resisted by remnants of the decl- mated battalions. and the Germans advanced a thousand yard. They might have gone much farther but Canadian battalions in close re- serve, themselves punished by heavy shelifire. counnr attacked with determination. and stopped any deep penetration. Ten days later after further counter attacks. the Canadians had retaken aamuch of the tortured ground as they found necessary to reconstitute their defence system, and the front quieted down.

It was not ranked as one of the great battles of the war like the capture of Vilny. or the battle for Pamhendale Riqe. It happened on a narrow front, and its purpose was diversionary. It was intended to impede the build up for the great battle of the Somme, which the British were preparing, and later iaunohed.on. July 1st.

serious acts of vandalism on two Saturday nishtl in succession hsvebeenrepcrtedby lsr.u.I. Moaiilivray. so of-til National Park. e stated that on the past two seturdaye people had used the kitchen shelters provided intherark andthm leftthe buildings almost in ruins. Last Saturday nilht a group complete- ly wrecked the shelter at Itali- hope and then broke into the one at Delve where they revealed their tion.

"We are only too glad to give service to people who use things properly, but we have too much work tiodotnspendailourtime repairing the e caused by vandals," Mr. MoG vray said. He stated that the R. C. If. Police were being notified and they would endeavour to locate those reqsonsible. Because the Park is Federal property such islets of vandalism carry a heavy penalty.

A great deal of work has been carried on this spring at the Nat- ional Park as the past winter caused severe damage to many of the buildings necessitating heavy repairs. There will be greatly im- proved camping and picnic faclutiea this year as improvement has been made to the camping grounds and extra. grassed areas have been add- ed at both Dalvay and Stanhcpe. Mr. McGillivray said it was hoped that they would be able to add more such areas at Cavendish as well. He said that the Park would consistently expand to meet the growing needs.

Life Guard service

Once again there will be life guards on duty at the four prin- cipai bbschea in the Park. but they will not take on their duties until the middle of this month. The guards will be stationed on the beaches at Brackley. Dalvay. Cav- endish and Stanhope. Mr. McGil- livray could not state definitely who the guards would be this year as he is still waiting for confirm- ation cf acceptance of the posit- ions from several of them.

"We are always optimistic. and naturally we expect more visitors this year than ever before," he said. Everything was being done to improve the services offered and'he mentioned the recently hard-surfaced road in from Dal- vay. It is hoped to have the road done in the Cavendish-Rustico section in the near future.

The Naticns.l Park officially opened for the 1953 season yester- day. .

In Charlottetown there are sev- eral well-known citizens who win recall the 'June scrap" vividly. since they were among those who lived through the attack. and took part in the counter attack.

Colonel F. W. Andrew and Major Norman lnwther are two of these and another. Mr. Arthur Hender- son resides at Winsloe. The first mentioned were not at that time commissioned officers. They were serving with the Fifth C.M.R.. "Art" Henderson was attached to a sig- nals unit.

Other units attacked that day included the R. C.R.'s, the Prin- cese Pate. the filth Battalion from Edmonton. the Forty-second Black Watch from Montreal. the let G. M.R. Battalion from Winnipeg. the 2nd C.M. R. from Victoria, l.C., and the 4th C. M. R. from Toronto.

Scattered across the Island are men who soldiered with all of these First War regiments. and a. good rnrcenisge were at the June 2nd show.

Today they will have no difficul- ty in recalling the events which took place on that spring day more than half a life span ago. They are among the very lucky who lived to remember.

In five hours of sheuing the Canadian Mounted Rifles Brigade, who had long been organised into infantry battalions, lost 1800 men out of a trench strength of 2800. Men needed luck to be on hand for roll-call after memorable June 2nd.
