We waited a long time and screened a great many persons til we decided upon Mr. Fletcher, whom we believe to be THE man to make GMC-Canada outstandingly successful!' RECORD OF ACHIEVEMENT George A. Fletcher, the new President of the Gadget-of-the- Month Club of Canada, has an impressive record both in business an public service on a community provincial, and natio al scale. Born in a small Ontario village, the son of the late Rev. Dr. W, P. Fletcher he was educated in Keswick, To- ronto, Oshawa and Queen's Uni- versity at Kingston, Ontario. He began his working career in the depression as a free-lance writer and "Jack-of-all-trades" to keep alive, collecting as he says, "most- ly reject slips and experience." Jobs included retail sales clerking, commercial invstigation and a proud period as an hourly rate factory worker. Soon he was hired by 'General Motors of Canada, Limited as an industrial editor and advertising man. During the next fifteen years he was promot- ed to executive positions in Sales, * Advertising, and Public Relations on a national and regional level. Last year Mr. Fletcher resigned from his position as Sales Man- ager for his company in Canada with headquarters in Re- gina,> to enter business for him- self. He suffered a serious motor accident near London where his family had located last year. Since his recovery he has béen engaged as a Public Relations and Adver- tising Itant for professional and business organizations. OUTSTANDING CITIZENSHIP Mr. Fletcher's record of public service is perhaps as well known as his business accomplishments. He was one of the founders. and President for the first two years of the Canadian Industrial Editors Associatigpn. He was cited by Isley, wartime Minister of Finance for his "outstanding work on behalf of the C people," in tion with his work in support of the National War Finance Com- mittee. He is Past Prsident of the Ontario Recreation Association ha- ving speark-plugged a new model Community Recreation Program in his home city of Oshawa. In that city, Mr. Fletcher has also served as a member and Chairman of the Community Chest and Board of Education. WILL. MANUFACTURE IN CANADA It will be the basic policy of the new Canadian organization to make the fullest possible use of the Cana- dian manufacturing skill and fa- cilities in producing all the new products now available and those continually being invented and de- veloped by GMC Canadian and International system. From Los Angeles, GMC-Canada will receive invaluable assistance in technical information, manufacturing data and short-cuts, tooling when neces- sary, productiog information gath- ered from hundreds of manufac- turers both in the U.S. and foreign countries. Additionally, invaluable marketing and merchandising data culled from field and consumer use reports will be placed at the disposal of the Canadian operation to effect maximum productivity at minimum cost with a minimum of error. Through a bulletin service, Canadian manufacturers will be advised on "What's New" in all fields of new inventions and given an opportunity to produce the items in Canada for Canada and elsewhere. .

BARRAGE STARTS In the Roses half of the fifth the barrage started again with Hooper rapping out a sharp single. Big Bob Gallagher hung around to let Hooper steal two, and then stretched a single into a big double following a wild attempted throw out. Williams grounded out then, and throw to sneak in with the sixth. Cole laid down a safe bunt to reach first, and Bob Gallagher scored on and Port Hope no score. With Don Gilhooley at the plate, Cole stole two, before Gil grounded away. Then Cole took three with Stainton up, and Johnny's long single brought Cole in for eight. Bowmanville Beats Port Hope By 14 to 3 Bill Dadson singled then, and Stainton took two. Cox doubled and Stainton scored nine. Next man up was Maxie Yourth who through in grand style a long one over the left field fence to bring in Dadson, Cox, and him- self for ten, eleven and twelve. MANY FLY BALLS came d laid By this time Long John Holman was suffering a badly arched neck watching the long fly balls, and the Hopers stuck in Ken Ashton to try to pull a bad one out of the fire. R A slightly rejuvenated Port Hope squad came out for the sixth, but it was too late to save the day, de- spite a long triple by .Ray Mann to score Ashby, and then himself on a hot single by Baxter. That put it at 12 to 2. Roses got them back in their half, however, on tallies by Dad- son and Cole to make it 14 to 2. Roses got them back in their half, however, on tallies by Dadson and Cole to make it 14 to 2.
