STATIONS 200 MILES UP This is an artist's conception of a baby space station. The little robot satellite can be built and sent aloft in five to seven years, according to Dr. Wernher von Braun, who developed the V-2 rocket in World War II and is now director of the U.S. army guided - missiles laboratory. The satellite would circle the earth at a 200 - mile altitude and hour. This space vehicle would be a forerunner of a large man- ned space station which could be erected 1,075 miles, above the earth in ten years. --Central Press Canadian at a speed of 17,200 miles an AJAX & DISTRICT NEWS John Mills, Representative -- Phone Ajax 426 Ajax United Church News AJAX -- On Sunday, June 21, the Sacrament of Infant Baptism was observed in the United Church.

This monthly catalogue of all work done by Canadians anywhere in the world was circulated through 600 Canadian libraries. Books were also being recorded on microfilm and some 3,000,000 volumes have been catalogued. Dr. Claude Bissell, vice-president of the University of Toronto, said at an association dinner that Cana- dian writing needs a "shock treat- ment." He said the rebirth of the novel in Canada during the last 15 years has come as a result of authors' deep introspection and reflective exploration of the relations be- tween groups of people. The pres- ent type of Canadian novel needed to be crossed with some more vigorous view of life. King Di CALGARY (CP)--John Burns, MBE, 69, president of Burns and Co.
