The narrator New Radio System For Ontario Police In Operation Soon "We will be able to patrol thous- ands of square miles of territory with as much ease as we once pol- iced a tenomile area," said an official of the Ontario Provincial Police in bpeaking about the new radio sys- tem, soon to be in operation, "In the event of an emergency it some- times. took us hours to mobilize our forces. Now the same thing can be accomplished in a mater of min- utes." The new Ontario network will eventually serve a fleet of 300 radio- operated police cruisers, and is rated by experts as the largest and most modern setup of its kind on the North. American Continent, Four-way communication is one of the: features of the system -- station-to-station, station-to-car and car-to-car. General Headquarters of 'the Provincial Police at Queen's Park will also maintain direct con- tact with the network. Number 5 District Headquarters of the Provincial Police, comprising the counties. of Peel, Ontario and York, will be the first to inaugurate the new system, with headquarters at Aurora. Receiving and sending cquipment have been installed be- tween the master station at Aurora, two G0-watt sub-stations at Bramp- ton and Whitby, and the 24 cruisers operating in this district, Frequency modulation units developed during the war eliminate static entirely, A new wrinkle is the magnetic despatch map.. Each dispatcher will have a map of his district showing all traffic arteries, villages, towns, cities and other vital information _ being shown ona linen framework. Magnetized pieces of metal, molded in the likeness of police cruisers, are moved from place to:place each time a position report is received: from a cruiser. By this method the despat- . cher can tell dt a glance the approxi- mate position of cach of his cars. Altogether there will be nine Provincial Police Districts operat- ing under the new system in South- ern Ontario, and a survey has al- ready been started for its cxtension . to Northern Ontario. Similar sys- tems have been so successful in Michigan and other parts of the United States that police every- where are hailing it as tlie greatest step forward in many years in the battle against crime. - Canada to O perate Atlantic 'Weather Station Malcolm Judson of Charlottetown, member of Atlantic weather reporting, radio beacon ----be-used-in-making meteorol t- : Wearing No ing designed crew of Canadian frigate St and rescue service, New mast > i \ £5 % _. fastened to ends of yardarm, as protection against iey spray and wind is AB. .

"BRONCHO BUSTERS" Famous Stampede Makes Thrilling Film The ways of the old Wild West may be dying, but they are not dead yet. And. if 'you want to. see how things were in' the good old: days - of Buffalo Bill and - Wild Bill Hickock, you can't do any better than to go to the Calgary Stampede. Ofcourse; many--people cannot -- make the trip west to see this ro- mantic and exciting spectacle, so, for their benefit, the National Film Board produced a colour film which: will bring the'Stampede, in a manner of speaking, right into cvery Can- ad's community. ER "In the summer of 1046 a produc- tion crew journeyed westward to Calgary and recorded « with - movie . cameras the celebrations and events which have made the Stampede famous. Later. the film was edited, and it is now a part of one of the circuit film programmes being shown this fall and ies in rural On- -" tario communities. Bronchos Cornered The opening scene shows a cow- boys' camp as 'dawn is breaking over the Alberta foothills. It 'is barely four a.m, but breakfast is over and thc" cowpunchers are saddlifig their horses-in preparation: for the round- up of the wild horses. As the broncos are coinered and headed for the corral, there are beautiful "shots" of the rivers, the valleys, and the then. tells the story of the wild "horses, which were: first introduced to North America some four hun- dred years ago. As 'the centuries passed, many horses escaped, multi- plied, and roamed far to the north and the west, and eventually found their way to the foothills "of the Rockics in Alberta, Witlt the broncos safely corralled, near Calgary. There are hundreds and hundreds of visitors--farmers- and tourists from all over the con- tinent. There are displays of modern farm machinery, and many cattle judging contests, Stampede is on! The first event is a wild horse riding contest, and the contestants' come from all over Western Canada and the U.S.A. The- daring riders are lowered onto the broncos, which are securely held in their stalls. Then, the gates are open- "ed, the horses charge down the chutes to the open arena, and the riders are on their own. It is a thrill- ing spectacle, and a dangerous one! There are good prizes, and the cow- + punchers hang on for dear life. The judges mark the entries on two points: the riding qualities of the cowboy, and the bucking qualities of the horse. : Risky Business The sccond event is calf roping. To qualify for a prize, the cow- puncher must not only trope a calf-- and a skittish calf at that--but he must pin her down on the ground. 'For those who might think that this\ is a "sissy" contest," tHe next one 'makes up for it with a ven- geance, It is the steer-grabhing bout, and here the word dangerous is an understatement. More than one cow- boy is injured, and' some barely dscapé with their lives. - The grand finale is the "chuck wagon". race, where the old west really comes back to life. Chuck wagons are hitched up to wild, pranc- ing teams. Every wagon is fied to capacity with accoutrements--every- thing from frying pans to camp, beds, As the starter's gun is fired, the chuck wagons roll and rattle down the track to the finishing line, It is a thrilling spectacle, aid brings to a climax this most "colourful event of the year on the Canadian prairies.

Sports -- And One Thing or By FRANK MANN HARRIS ("A Sixbit Critic") Back in the days when we were briefly - connected with the wrestl- ing business, there was one espe- cially valued regular customer-- 'a prominent and wealthy lawyer, whose name you would probably recognize, and who always used to purchase six or eight of' the "high- est-price scats for himseli and his friends. Their frantic enthusiasm, while a bout was in progress, was really something to.'see. But one 'day, -meeting him on the street, we found him in a most critical state of mind. He said he'd begun to suspect that wrestling wasn't on the level--and that he. wasn't go- ing to give it his patronage any longer, ™ . . * * * Asked for his reasons he told how, on Thursday evening, he had seen one of the main-bouters car- ried from .the arena apparently. very badly injured--and next day had heard rumors that the wrestler lay. in hospital suffering from con- cussion and possible skull fracture. He had even been thinking of sending flower§ until--happening to pick-up a Buffalo Saturday paper--hie had been amazed to note that this very same grappler, miraculously restored to health, had taken part in a torrid bout in that city the previous evening. "So I think it. must be crooked, and I've had enough," he concluded. * « « However, knowing something of the ways of sports fans, we weren't too much surprised to see him in his regular seat the following week, yelling his head off in a frenzy of excitement. "Even if they are all a bunch of fakers," he ex- plained, rather shame-facedly, af- terwards, "while they're in there they make me feel that they're try- ing to tear one another apart-- and' I'm 'not going to miss it." * * * Somehow, 'we couldn't help ~thinking- of -this-gentleman lately. The sport of boxing has been shak-. en by a series of scandals; the lat- est being the very smelly Fa Mot- "ta-Fox affair in New York, "These fakers' are killing the game!" wail- ed the sports scribes from Coast to Coast. So what happens? The Joe Louis-Joe Walcott heavyweight thing--a worse 'overmatch' than David vs Goliath because Walcott won't 'be allowed to carry rocks, and probably couldn't win even if he did--will draw a sellout gate of over a quarter of a million. And: if they'd had the 'crust to charge $100 'tops' the. place would have been just as crowded: The moral Aw--just write your own!

Previously, we had heard nothing of any such in-. tentions--but as soon as news came that all such unnecessary travel was "Off" their moans 'of disappointment were pitiful to. hear. : * « 'When we pause to watch a game of 'corner-lot football among the small fry," we always note about ten forward-passers, or pass roe ceivers, to every kid willing to get in there and learn the rudiments of line-play--and this in spite of the fact that every coach in the busi. ness would give his eye-teeth for the kind of front-rank material that has made the Toronto 'Argo- nauts supreme over the years. Similarly, as we sce younger generations taking their licks at becoming future hockey stars, we cannot hclp noticing that it is practically always the smallest kid in the gahg who is set to guard the nets. All the others are up there emulating Apps, Richard and the rest of the great goal-getters. Those who aim .to become Turl: Broda's, Bill Durnan's or Frankie Brimsck's are few and far between. Perhaps this is only natural, as goal-tending is -- according to. those who do it for a living -- a thankless business. Still, if we were advising any kid who really wanted to shine at hockey, our 'advice would be' to take a real whack at twine-tending. Just think of what the Chicago Black Hawks would give for a goalie of any- thing like the class of the three just mentioned, for example, right this minute. . oe i The whole world is suffering from a severe attack of the jitters--wor- rying over a heap of things that will probably never happen and which, if they do, we are helpless to prevent. We can't help wondering if a lot of it isn't due to most of us trying to absorb far more news of the world than we can digest. We know one man who, 'in addition to reading three daily papers, listens to at least six daily newscasts and news cothe mentaries, and is in a constant state of 'apprehension that threatens his méntal and physical health; His great- grandfather didn't even hear of the Battle of Waterloo till six weeks after it was decided--and wouldn't have been a bit better off if he'd had a play-by-play decription right from the battlefield. -~ * * .

Bat spectators at Big League hockey games are getting much' more cri- tical than they have been in the past few secasons, Booing, and that special sort of hand-clapping: which is by no means applause, both break out among' the fans at the slightest "provocation; and players who have been wont to hear their slightest move greeted with -approv.l are having their cars shocked by the raucous Razz- berry and shouts of "Get in there and show us something." Well,. retail merchants with plenty of-_goods--on--their- shelves -- find buyers more "choosey" than when there is a buying panic on; and although attendances have: shown little sign of falling of us vet; it may be that hockey custom- crs, too, are looking for quality, and are getting a bit tired of hav- ing a combination of speed, skat- ing and duck-on:the-rock passed over the counter as "Canada's greatest sport."
