Elton Woodside's Plane Very Busy Yesterday

Elton Woodside's single engine plane from Clinton. yesterday was doubtlessly observed by scores of people from Summerside to Georgetown as. from dawn to dark, he responded to cell after call from people in many points in Prince Edward Island. ' Early yesterday morning he flew to Fernwood and took a lady to Cavendish, who had been storm stayed while visiting. From Cavendish he took em- other lady to Charlottetown to visit her mother whom he had flown to hospital the day before. From Charlottetown he flew to Summerside where he took I mother and her new baby from

1 the hospital to their home in ' Mnlpcque. After dinner at his home he

flew to Kensingion where he picked up Blair Ballem, a lines- man of the Island Telephone

Company, and landed him beside a broken section of line at North Granville.

From there he flew to Char- lottetown where he picked up I priest whose destination was St. George's in King's County. Airborne again he went to Mon- tague where his passenger was In R.C.M.P. officer whom he left off at Launching. then back to Georgetown where he picked up- Coroner Dr. A. Kennedy and took him to Join the R. C. M. P. of- floor at Launching. Later, when the doctor went.on by sleigh to make other calls in the urea. he took the police officer back to Montague, and continued from there to New London where he picked up the telephone lines- mnn whom he had earlier left at North Granville to make line re- pairs, and landed him safely on the harbor ice at Summe aid-.-. Pausing only a moment, he was nway again for Kensington to answer a call from I woman do- sirlng an airlift to Park Corner. Arriving there he found his pas- senger hed accepted a chance home by horse and sleigh. Io Elton took off again for home. arriving there about 6 p.m.. after establishing what is perhaps a unique emergency airlift re- cord on P. E. I. .

This morning Elton will pick up a passenger at Summerlide for Park Corner. and than will pro- ceed to New Glasgow, Nova Scotin where he will fly a man to Pic- tou Island, and then return to Prince Edward Island where an- othor busy schedule ewaltl him. Typical of the casual ease with which Elton-makes these flight: was the-story told by one of his pauenger yesterday of how. when o&IIng near his home, Elton fie low between his house and barn. tilted the plane slightly. opened the plane door and called

mos PIFTEEN

The courage and determination, of three men to take blood that was quickly necded to the Tyne Valley Hospital late Thursday night was almost successful.

At 11.30 p.m. that night a, snowmobile (above) operated by, the Flicker Taxi and driven by the owner. Wendell Rogers, ac- companied by the night clerk Billy MacKay, left Summerside with the vacuum sealed contain- ers packed in ice.

About the same time anothr-r snowmobile driven by Dick Found- fo the biological station, Ellsrslie, left Tyne Valley to meet Summerside snow-mobile.

The Summerside macliine.'nf- ter travelling tcn mil-:s over six to eight feet of snow, unexpect- edly topped a six foot drift and, upset on .its side. Because of the: heavy weight of the conveyauccl

the two men were unable to lift:

When morning came theywalk-y ed to the nearest farm home and after breakfast they proceeded to! St. Nicholas. where they caughtl the tradn and returned to Sum- merside. bringing the blood with them. Mr. Found in his show- mobile from Tyne Valley reached re point only three miles from the overturned Summerside vehicle and finding he could get no further.

After waiting for a consider- ed at how much snow the mach- lightline would go over and that

able time and seeing no that might mean the Summerside snowmobile was approaching Mr. Found. unable to go further. turned back towards home with- out the blood.

About five miles from Tyne Valley his steering gear broke. The time was then about 5.00

At 10.30 p.m. a short but dif- ficult section at Travellers Rest was still being battered by snow clearing cqulpmcnt trying to break through, and until this was accomplished the Summerside- Kcnsington road was closed by this short section of huge snow banks.

Little could be learned about the plows west of Summersld-.. but it is understood that they are making very slow progress due to the huge quantities of snow.

The Summerside schoolboy curl- ers made I creditable showing in the Dominion schoolboy curling bonspiel It Monoton when you take into consideration the few games they had played before ent- ering the 'spiel.

I

They won only three games out of nine. but their opponents edged them by only one point in four of the six games lost, and they forced both runners-up, Nova Scotia and Manitoba to an extra end before finally bowing to defeat.

I O I

This Moncion sportswriter char- acterized them as "The always tough to heat Prince Edward Is- land entry" and even in the game which British Columbia heat thorn 11-7. the some sports writer said "It could have gone either way. as the lead kept changing all the time.” That meant that the Sum- merside rink was beaten declsely only once. and that time by the Dominion champions. Saskatche- wan, who handed them a 14-2 pasting.

O The boys have the highest praise for the hospitality shown at Mone- ton. and also for their leader. Harold Gaudet, who took them to the bonspiei. llarold is one of summerside's true sportsmen. and has always been connected in some way with the Summerside sporting scene. An Island golf champion himself, he has also been one of Summcrside's best bowlers. and though curling but a few years. is doing pretty well at that game also.

He has figured prominently as I promoter of hockey for youth. be- ing proprietor at one time of the Crystal Rink, and at present in partnership with J. K. Curran in the Notre Dame Arena enterprise. He owns the only bowling alleys in town and is also the proprietor of

the harness racing track. The boy

curlers will not soon forget the royal way in which they were treated by this generous sports- man.. 0 O Summerside athletes abroad are doing pretty well in various lines of sport. "Hammer" Deichan is lzetting more than his share of goals with the St. Dunslan's hoc- key team. and n Charlottetown sportsman devoted a whole column to the courarzeous feats of brother Dickie Deighan who plays hockey, baseball. etc. although handi- capped asaresult of being crippled by polio.

Some time age we noted the fact that Bill Stewart had made thc Mount Allison Varsity basketball team in his freshman year, a tea: accomplished by a very few. Now we see by the mainland press that Bill led the Mount Allison team with 15 points in a game with Dalhousie University. A year or two more and this boy will be H Maritime standout in the hoop game.
