MONDAY

The entire cast of "Papa is All”. finalist in the Dominion Drama Festival, entrain- ed London. -Ontario, last evening for their return trip to this city.

Although not named as a win- ner of a trophy. audience response proclaimed "Papa Is All" as one of the entertainment highlights of the week. After witnessing six finalists of more dramatic and thought-provoking types. the Sat- urday matinee audience sat back relaxed. and constantly heid up "Papa" as they rocked with laughter.

During intermisslons the sophisticated audience from all parts of Canada gathered in the lobby of the famous Grand Theatre. and it seemed to be the general opinion that although "Papa" was a simple, homey pro- duction, and might not be in the running for top honors with the more elaborate productions prev- iously seen, it was certainly more entertaining than many of the others.

The part the armed services will play in the Festive Week program was shaping up well according to word released yesterday.

A detachment of troops from a

do a paratroop "drop" as a feature to this part of the program.

The Princess Louise Fusiliers from New Brunswick will be rep- resented and they will be accomp- anied by their band and famous mascot. The mascot is a donkey adopted during their campaign in Italy in the last war.

Bands of other Maritime units expected to take part are, the North Nova Scotia Highlanders. the Pictou Highlanders, the Cape Bre- ton Highlanders and the Halifax Rifles.

Present negotiations also call for 100 personnel from the R. C. A. F. Station at Summerside to take part in the military part of the pro- gram.

It is hoped also to have several warships visit Charlottetown dur- ing the Festive Week ceremonies.

Convocation Week activities at Prince of Wales college will com- mence on Tuesday with a dinner at the Charlottetown Ilotcl tend- ered by the executive of the Prince of Wales Alumni Associat- ion to the members of this year's graduating class. on the same ev- ening the Convocation Ball will be held in the College Auditorium at which the Alumni executive will be

The R. C. A. P. announced last night that at least one man died when a Dakota plane from sum- mcrside station crashed in the Labrador wilderness last Monday.

The announcement followed an intensive air search. leading to the discovery of the plane's wreckage 130 miles southwest of Goose Bay Saturday.

A land party fording streams and hacking through underbrush- made its way to the crash scene and found the body of Flying Of- ficer Owen Poster, 23, of North Vancouver. He was the co-pilot.

Air Force officials declined to speculate on the fate of the other three crew members of the Dakota.

Bad weather yesterday hamper- ed efforts to conduct a. complete investigation. Two Cansos from Greenwood, N. S., air station land- ed on a nearby lake shortly after the wreckage was sighted. Ground parties then proceeded to the scene. Later a report was given out that the wreckage was strewn over a large area and that there was no sign of life. one wing was about half a mile away from the main part of the plane and a. yel- low object which might have been a dinghy was seen stul further off.

Finding the plane cleared up one point. It was on course when it went down so there was no error of navigation involved. The wreck- age was spotted by a crew of a plane from Greenwood based temporarily at Goose Bay for the search which was piloted by F0 S. H. MacFadden of Montreal.

shortly after, two Summerside aircraft who got the news on their radios circled the spot. That morning a number of aircraft went out from Summerside on a regular navigation flight but fly- ing in s. fan-like formation to cov- or as much territory as possible. The course of two of them took them in the general vicinity of the crash. Shortly after that the two Cansos landed and ground parties went in.

Yesterday they were due to re- turn and a U. S. helicopter was to hover overhead and do some low level looking around. llowever weather prevented the putting in- to effect of these plans.-S

TUESDAY

Justice George J. Tweedy was committed to stand trial at the next sitting of the Supreme Court' on a charge of manslaughter by Magistrate Gilbert A. Gaudet yesterday morning. The charge arose out of the highway death of Gerald Solomon, Georgetown, on April 14 last. '

Upon application of counsel for the accused and with the consent of the Attorney-Gene;-avg De. partment, ball of 55,000 with two sureties of 52,500 each was granted

Cpl. William Warner, R..C.M.P was the only witness to give evid- ence yesterday. He presented A sketch of the road and accident scene along with various road measurements.

H. F. MacPnce, K.C.. appeared for the accused and J. D. C. Camp- bell, K.C., for the Crown.

The Royal Canadian Air Force announced early this morning that the bodies of three crew members of the Dakota from Summerside air station which crashed in the Labrador wilds May l4 had been recovered. Earlier the body of co- pilot Owen Foster. 23, of North Vancouver had been found.

The bodies located yesterday were those of the pilot. F0. Joseph J.L.E. Rodier. 25, of, Montreal; Flight Cadet Gerald Michael Hig- gins, 21, of Gatlneau Point, Que- bec; and Fit. Cadet Frank Wilfred Smith, 24. of shelburne, N. S.

The last three bodies were in marshy ground which hindered the search, the Air Force said.

All the next of kin have been notified. The bodies will be brought. back to Goose Bay and will be taken out for burial.

The cause of the crash. which occurred during a routine training flight, is still unknown but an in- vestigatlon is continuing.

Faint hope that there would be survivors faded yesterday when the Air Force announced that three unopened parachutes had been found in the crash area.

A spectacular fire, the smoke and flames of which were easily visible in the city, broke out late yester- day afternoon on the farm of Mr. Harry Wood, Bunbury. The farm of Mr. Wood adjoins that of Prem- ier J. Walter Jones where the val- uable Holstein herd of the Abcg- welt are quartered.

Firefighting equipment from the city, including the big machine and the pumper, went to the scene under direction of Deputy Fire Chief James Walker. Although they were successful in preventing the spread of the flames to the farm home of Mr. Wood and other out- buildings, they could not save eight buildings which were razed by the flames. Included in the loss were the cattle barn. horse stable. feed house, machine shed, grain barn and two hen houses.

Farm equipment and supplies lost included 200 bushels of oats, 6 tons of hay, 8 tons of straw. in thrashing machine. milking mach- ine, grain crusher, all the new har- ness and various smaller farm im- plements such as shovels, picks, etc.

The fire was first noticed in the

The newly formed Prince of Wales College Alumni tendered a banquet to the 1951 graduating class of P. W. C. at the Charlotte- town last night. In the absence through illness of the President. Chief Justice Thane A. Campbell. Mr. Walthen Gaudet presided.

About '15 persons attended in- cluding the executive of the grad- uating class with their wives or husbands together with the grad- uates and their partners.

Following introductory remarks by the chairman. Dr. Frank Mac- Kinnon. Principal of Prince of Wales College outlined the var- ious methods in which the Alumni served the College.

Ralph Richard Williams. six- year-olci son of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Williams, Granville Street. Summerside, was killed instantly when struck by a truck about 93:: yesterday morning. The accident happened on Green Street in the vicinity of the High School and from what can be learned it seems that the child had run out on the street into the side of the truck, which was driven by Mr. Jack Small. The vehicle was a half-ion truck owned by Corney Bros.

The accident happened near the home of Coroner Dr. Austin De- laney and he rushed out but the boy was dead when he reachedi him. A coroner's jury was cm-.' panelled and after viewing thc', body adjourned till five o'clocki this afternoon.

Jury members are: Messrs. Cleve Whalen, foreman; Jim Har- ris, Sidney Forbes, Willard Dou- cette, Earl Campbell, James lio- gan and Roland Sheen.

-The accident occurred before the school patrol came on duty. This patrol operates at times when children congregate near the school and endeavors to pre- vent. them from crossing streets when traffic is approaching.-S.

The first electric storm of the season in Prince County caused the destruction of a barn yester- day and damaged a house.

At Poplar Grove. five miles from Tyne Valley, the new barn of Ed- mund Dawson was burned. with less estimated at approximately 54,000, partially covered by insur-

ance. The barn had been built about two years ago.

In 0iLeary a house owned by Mr. Wilfred Brooks was struck and damaged but was not.set on

fire. No one was at home at the time. The electric light meter was reported to have been burned out and the chimney damaged. some damage was caused also to the walls of the building.

The storm occurred in the late afternoon and was reported to have been very severe. At Tignish the lightning was not heavy but torrential rain fell. Alberton re- ported hcavy lightning with par- ticularly heavy rain about 6 o'- clock.

There was no lightning and no rain at Summerside.

The Dawson barn at Poplar Grove was set afire about 4.30. Neighbors gathered quickly and helped save 14 pigs and several calves. as well as farm machinery.- However. 10 tons of hay, some 600 bushels of seed oats and a quant- ity of fertilizer, said to be at least five tons, was all destroyed.

The Tyne Valley Fire Depart- ment responded to a call and helped prevent the fire spreading to other buildings.

Mrs. Dawson was reported to have received a shock in the dwelling. apparently at the gums tlme the barn was struck. How. ever. it was not severe enough to cause injuries.

Malpequc. (Chemical); John llogdsou Delory, Georgetown. (Electrical): Lester Preston Gaudet, Summerside, (Chemical). Libray Science. Murial Beatrice England. Summerside. . Agriculture, James William icorclon Nicholson, Crauaud. (with distinction); Audrcw Elizabeth Marie MacMilla4i. Fairview; Al- lison Bennett Stevenson. New Glasgow. The only Island graduate in dentistry. Mr. Landrigan, is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Percy J. Landri- gan of Charlottetown. He will take up dental practise in Ottawa. The art wirk of students from many parts - Prince Edward Is- lzind now on display at Prince of V.':iles College should prove of 1 uch crest to parents and-to art lovers in general. The pl'l'J;(P08S of the 5 year and special ma- iriculation student is shown tlir:":l: pencil dr ill in the first term. ' ':ing in legtcrlng. per- spective, :11, object drawing, to the applica on of their principals in pen-and-ink and color work in the ccond term. The teacht.. ..:-training are be- ing equipped ”"iil such skills as pzzper-sculpture, soap sculpture, pr" at-making, pilpif mache, po- iato prints. lino-cuts. ete., to carry out to the schools of the province, as well as being train-.:i in imagin- ative painting, poster making. and murals. The Art Cf"h enables students c” all years to carry on various branches of art work as a hobby, and their work in oils, wafer-colors and pastels shows much creative ability. That iiicre is much talent among our young people is very evident at this display. and it is hopci ih-it ' s public will show their in- t' by attending.

It was a new form of commence- ment as the Vocational School sent 28 of its raduatcs into the world Wedncsdfy afternoon at a ceremony held in the Agricultural Room. They were boys from the city and rural areas who had completed their courses in brick- laying, plastering. carpentry; elec- tricity, plumbing and sheet metal work.

Premier .7. Walter Jones presid- ed and first introduced the school supervisor, Mr. Ralph MacLean. who gave his report, excerpts from which appear elsewhere in today's issue. The certificates were pre- senled to the graduates by Dr. L. W. Shaw. Deputy Minister of Education. who had a smile and a word of greeting for each of the boys coming forward.

The main address to the grad- uates was delivered by Hon. Dr. W. J. P. Maclvlillan, who paid high tribute to the Premier for the work he has done for agriculture in this-Province. Referring to the recent conferring of an honorary degree on the Premier by Acadia University Dr. MacMlllan said, "It honored itself in so doing. In its long history. Acadia has turned out no more outstanding graduate."

Dr. MacMilian also told his aud- ience, "our Premier will rank in history as one of the leading agrlcullurists of the world." Then he added with a smile. "I must also confess he is the cleverest politician I have met in my 25 years in the Legislature." The speaker went on to state he did not believe the people here are right in selling their farms on the Island.
