NDETRANMN1UD 14 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, February 14, 1979 Section Two diE GM Expands Winter Testing Facilities at Kapuskasing Early in the Kapuskasing morning,, when winter temperatures often plunge to forty below, GM mechanic, Tony Teknyos, gives test sensors a last minute inspection while preparing this Sunbird for its instrumented cold start. The nerve-centre of GM's cold weather testing and development facility is this instrumentation console where ail cold start data from each test vehicle are monitored and recorded. Subzero weather has cur- tailed the activity of many of our fair-weathered citizens with only a few hardy souls daring to leave the comfort of the hearth forý the outdoor world. M r. and1 Mrs.'Howard Mal- colm have just returned from a week in sunny Calgary - damn cold, but sunny. Howard was attending a Canadian Hog Producers Convention there representing Ontario. Sorry to report Mr. Roy Werry of Su.dbury was rushed to hospital by ambulance this past week and is currently in intensive care. Miss Jennifer Snushall of Bethany spent a few days this week with Mona Malcolm during her dad's holiday in the Barbados. Sorry to report that Mr. Auke Van Der Mer is back in Port Perry Hospital with a severe circulation problem. Mrs. Audrie Brown spent a few days with friends in Toronto this week attending the funeral of a former Doctor friend. Miss Mona Malcolm enter- tained a family gathering this week on the occasion of her birthday - "Sweet Sixteen". Present in addition to the normal inmates at Malconia were Miss Jennifer Snushal and Mr. and Mrs. Bob Fick and Miss Jane Connolley of Toronto. Three birds were killed with one stone with Mona, Jane and Bob's birth- days ail covered with one birthday cake and one set of candies - real Scotch economy! Mitzi and Bob Fick left on Sat. a.m. with several other couples for a week near Nassau in the Bahamas. By the time this appears in print Mr. and Mrs. Balfour Moore should have arrived home from Panama City, Florida, with a Port Perry couple where they have been holidaying since early in the New Year. On Sunday evening your Yelverton scribe is scheduled to leave for Saskatoon, Sas- katchewan where he is taking a course on Co-operattves at the Co-op College thë>eè. The prospect of trading sub-sub- zero weather for our own mild zero weather gives us chilis not thrills at the idea. Why oh why couldn't they send us to Co-op College in the Caribbean instead for a touch of 'adult eddication". Then if we flunk- ed we might take the course over again for another week in a more conducive climate. Last Sat. evening the Har- vey Malcolm's and Mona, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Fîck were dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Fick of Scarborough. Earlier in the afternoon Car- rie and 1 attended the Matinee performance of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre at the O Keefe Centre. Yelverton U.C.W.
