End Canadian Hospitality

Marvellous

I

MONTREAL. tCP)-A couple of American girls are convinced that "Canadian hospitality is marvel- ous." llinna Bcharrenherg. 18-year-old student It the State Teachers Col- lege at Danbury. Conn., and her irelnd June Moeller are going back home after I brief sojourn in Can- ui. "to gain experience.”

Their trip was in line with the policy of the college to have stu- dents in their freshman or sopho- more'years try some new experi- ence approved by the faculty.

"some of the students." says Anm, "jog off to Mexico or Flor- ldl. while others just experiment with hobbies at home. We decided to come to Canada."

she says that until recently the girls knew little about things on this side of the border. But there is a new interest in Canada among younger Americans It the mo- ment. Anna says this has been en- .-ouraged by an increasing number .-if articles about Canada in United States newspapers and magazines .-such as stories about the St. LAWTCHCE SEIWRY.

Good Co-operation

The girls-tliey are fourth-year srience students-financed their Jwn trip to Montreal and Ottawa, but found plentyt of willing helpers an arrival. The Montreal Council )f Women acted as hostesses here. and at Ottawa the girls were .-haperoned by Senator Cairine Wilson. The Canadian-American Women's Committee arranged I sight-seeing schedule.

The girls said they experienced nniy one disappointment on the trip-there weren't enough mount- ies about.

"We didn't expect to see them

on every street corner. however." said June. So they settled for postcards

featuring pictures of the redcoats. "we're taking a lot of postcards home to show our friends."

Job For TV ; In Steel Mills

By John Moody

PITTSBURGH. (AP).-Television, which has entertained millions. is going to work in steel mills.

The toughest Job steel men have handed TV so far is gazing into the red hot lnlertor of slab re- heating furnaces. The furnaces are used to bring steel slabs to a glow- ing temperature so they can be rolled into sheets only I. fraction of an inch thick. To do this the cameras must be mounted in strategic spots far enough out of range to prevent melting or even clouding of the lens.

The worker controlling the roll-I ing mill sits in comfort far away form the furnace, looking at pic- tures on his receiving set and mak- ing needed adjustments by press- ing buttons.

The big slabs-they weigh tons- frequentiy slam into the side of the furnace causing damage which may even cause a shutdown for repair. This is costly.

With TV cameras watching the slab's every move in the furnace. the control man can make a quick adjustment to keep it from gouging into the side.

At U.S. Steel's Gary. 1nd., works. the TV camera is focused on the hot roll mill table. "On this job TV follows the strip the full length of the rolling mill. watching the red hot steel sheets sell over the table rollers to the coiling mach- ine where they are wrapped for shipment.

Along the mill table are many pitfalls where the fast travelling sheets can strike the side or run into other trouble and clobber-a lsteel term which means the sheets buckle and fly off the mill table.

With the TV eye following the sheet. the control man can see trouble coming and again make needed adjustments.

Urge Federal Gov'l Set Up Highwav Commission

VANCOUVER. (OP) -The Gane- dian Construction Associa- tion urged bhe federal government Wednesday to set up a national hlglvway commission and "tilt! there is continuing need for fed- eral aid for highway construction.

The statement was contained in I series of resolutions and policy declarations which delegated to the current annual meeting have worked on in private sessions dur- ing the last three days. and which were given approval Wednesday by the full meeting.

Construction of the trans - Can- ada highway. the association laid. demonstrates that federal and provincial governments can work together in accord. The trans - Canada Highway Act. however, would expire in 1956. and there were no comrnlmienti for con- tinued federal participation in provincial highway programs af- lor that data.

The proposed commission would CCA suggested. "co - ordinate the planning. financing and construc- tion of main highways." and with it the govvermnent was asked "to provide federal appropriations in keeping with the financial abil- ities of the Cansdis people”

Ask Extend Provision

Undor hating. the gm ent was urged, in its new legislation. to extend the 90 per cent loan provision beyond the proposed 88.- 000 lending value limit and was asked to "give serious considera- tion to the (section of 'apen-snd' moi-tgsges and loans to finance the purduss and rehabilitation of existing houses."

The government was also asked to give 'serlous consideration" to the principle that only the "under privileged and aged should be housed in subsidised low - rental project.”

Provincial and municipal gov- ernments were asked to take ac tion where necensry in co - op- erating with the federal govsm- ment in land assembly schemes under the provisions of the Na- tional Housing Act.

other resolutions urged:

Forced To Abandon Home By The Sea

I sun! Emil... nsgland (G) - A It hr u, '10-yes:-old housewife has lost I 30-year-old battle with the sea. ,

Mrs. Alice Melsome. who has watched her neighbors leave their DI ' shoreline homes since 1931. finally abandoned her own two-storey ville Sunday to the in- coming ocean. ,

While she was feeding her ducks and chickens in the fruit yard earlier this week four rooms of her home suddenly crashed into the see which had eaten sway their foundations".

Sunday a roaring gale reinforc- ed nelghboi-s' pleas that it would be dangerous to spend another mo- ment in the house where she had lived for 30 years.

Mrs. Melsome scooped heriour cats from their cushions and left -but only went as far as an un- used bungalow nearby. I few yards from the lashing sea,

"She's not really safe where she is now if we get some rough tides." a worried friend remarkerl. "But she wouldn't. be happy anywhere else."

Trans-World Chess Match ls Delayed

TORONTO, (CPI - The trans-

world ches match by cable be- tween a Z!-year-old Tomrito Uni- versity student and a Russian chrss expert may be delayed until the participants decide what rules to follow, The match was scheduled to start today at 8 AM. at the Canadian international hobby and homecraft shnw under way here.

The challenge was originally is- sued byilfrank Anderson, univer- sity studcnt who is Canadian rp- chamuion with Winnipeg's Aha Yanofsky. to Mikhail Botvinnik Russians world champion. "or any of the soviet grand masters."

Igor Z. Eondarevsky. one of Rus- slais top masters. accepted rind suggested that each contestant play two games simultaneously with I half-hour limit. for each move. using a chrsss coda known as the Oudaman system for cabl- ing responses. Chnss experts here said the suggested rules do not conform with international rules and would mean that the my-tch would probably last the ontire time nf the hobby show, which ends Feb. 13.

Seeks New Terms

In the llllddlrlvbf mathematics and physics examinations and pres- sed for time, Anderson cabled a response Saturday listing his own conditions for playing which arc- in conformity with lntemationsl rules and would shorten the play- in: time of the match.

Anderson's suggestions call for playing only one game and the completion of 40 moves in 2";

hours. If the game was not com- pleted in that length of time. it would continue at the rate of M moves an hour.

Anderson also said he is willing to take the black-it disadvantage -since the white always moves first. He added. however. that if him tefvins are not acceptable. he will accept the Russlan's terms.

Lo t B 't' h (By JAMES NORRIS)

ELBA Reuters - Electronic fingers from a fleet of British na- val ships are groping over the muddy ocean floor of this Med- iterranean island. for clues that could affect Britain's future in the air.

Dogged searchers are pressing science into use as they probe the sea bottom for the wreck of one of. Britain's proudest airplanes- the trail-blazing Comet jetliner which plummeted into the ocean here Jan. lo.

Cries-crowing the water exvpanse where E passengers and six crew members phinged to their deaths. an armada of. salvage ships is slowly dragging up the relics of the disaster -a wing panel. s. wo- man's water-soaked" suitcase.

But the chief object of their search still lies submerged and un- detected beneath hundreds of feet of water. Divars. sonic detectors and underwater television have been unable to spot the main body section of the ill-fated Cornet.

Seek Crash Cause

Somewhere in the cru-mpled mass of the Come-t's engines and central fuselage expert engineers hope to find the cause for the plane's crash -which brought the grounding of all Britain's prized Comets,

A careful check on all the groundad planes has yielded no solution.

There have been reports that sabotage may have caused the Elba crash, but only evidence from the wreck itself can answer the question of what caused it.

Four Royal Navy ships. seven Italian trawl:-rs and private sai- vage vessels are inching over the ocean mud with the patience of a detective at the scene of ii crime The search has alrcady fnl-ten 18 days and yielded few tanzllble re- sults. but naval officials say curt- ly there is no time limit.

Search Expensive

The size of the fleet and the intensive use of scientific detectors have already made the operation the most P.Xl'lel15lVF salvage ai- trmpl. of its l.y'pe in history. One of the television cameras. specially designed to operate 3,000 feet under water. was manufactured in seven hectic davs for the job.

”But if its width is four miles, then it may take us four years."
