The steady infield play of Cabin. N. Macllarlsna and. Currie. and the brilliant catching of Peters in left field were features of the Aces' defensive play. and the town

Noled Flying Ace Al S'side Airport

The sun was Just going down at Summerside R.C.A.l-'. air station yesterday. The ground crew atr- man signalled the pilot of-the Dakota to cut his engine. As the pilot climbed out, the airman idly looked at his watch and noted that, being Thursday, he still would have time to make the station theatre movie.

He looked back to the pilot and now to his amazement, the pilot had removed his headset and re- placed lt with the gold braid cup of a. group captain.

Group captains aren't exactly a

dime a dozen, but this one was the incomparable Group Captain 1.. J. Bircnall, known as "The Savior of Ceylon". . Back on 4 April. 1942, (MC Bir- chall, 0.B.E.. D.F.C., then a squad- ron leader of No. 413 squadron. whose aircraft and crew had are rived in Ceylon only two days previously, took off on a. recon- naissance over the Indian Ocean. He sighted and reported by wire- less,a large enemy naval force, 350 miles south of Ceylon. 1-its Catalina was shot down, however, and sxr. Blrtchsll and some of his crew were taken prisoners.

Thanks to their warning. the island's defences were put in readi- ness and the Japanese attack was beaten off.

Group Captain Eirchall is new in the personnel branch of air material command, Ottawa. but is still it very keen pilot. As fre- quently as possible he makes time to slip away from heavy admin- istrative duty to spend a few hours at routine pilot duties.

-Group Captain Birchsll stated

that he was very happy to re-visit Prince Edward Island. He recalled that his last visit here was in 1939 at the time of the Royal, visit, when he was flying as Btranraer flying boat, escorting the Royal four. The Group Captain could only stay here for a few hours. but still managed to get in touch with Mr. Frederic A. Large, (3.0. of Chas- lottetown, whom he had not seen in twelve years. He had last met Mr. Large, then a lieutenant l't.C. N., when they had established a flying boat base at Gaspe, Quebec. They exchanged a merry account of family statistics and discussed the whereabouts of old friends and acquaintances.

Group Captain Blrchall stated that he had cherished the loudest memories of P. E. I. hospitality
