Versatile Dr. Bohdan Medusa |Cwilong, formerly associate pro- fessor of physics at the University of British Columbia, once paddled 200 miles through Poland in a washtub. This time he plans to use a conventional 74-foot yawl, replaced later by a smaller craft now under construction in Van- couver. Dr. Cwilong, whose accomplish- ments include prize-winning plays in blank verse and a runner-up spot in a New Zealand national chess championship, weighs anchor from Hamble in®*Hampshire 'lues- day or Wednesday. With him will be his English wife, Marie, and five assorted crew. members, in- cluding"a chef from a luxury liner and a 16-year-old ships' boy, Roy Nash. SEVEN-YEAR SCHEDULE Here is Dr. Cwilong's salt-wash schedule: Three years in the Pacific, cov- ering as much as possible of an area of 15,000,000 square miles; | Two years in the Indian ocean, 6,000,000 square miles; Two years in the Atlantic, 3,000,- 000 square miles. "We want to find out why the earth is magnetic," said the 44- year-old scientist, reached by tele- phone at his Hampshire head- quarters. "The ocean is the best place to do it because there we are free .from the interference caused by land masses." The first stop will likely be Lis- bon, then Madeira and the Ba- hamas. Dr. Cwilong, whose re- sources include a $600 grant from Dr. Norman MacKenzie, president of UBC, hopes to be in Vancouver in about a year to pick up his second boat, a 34-foot demagnet- ized yawl which will be called Non-Magnetic III. STUDY STORMS The party plans to spend several months in the doldrums, studying tropical storms and taking films of waterspouts. "It sounds dangerous," said Dr. | Cwilong, "but actually you can get quite close, they move so slowly." The seven-year search of the seas, - if successful, should add much to current thinking about terrestial magnetism. As things stand, magnetic lines of force can Scientist Sets Sail To Probe Magnetism | ments" in the be measured and neutralized, but little is known about how or why they came into existence. One re- cent theory attributes regional magnetic changes to 'flow move- earth's molten core. The last magnetic survey ship, the Carnegie, burned out off Samoa in 1929. A British-built craft was recently scrapped for financial reasons. Air, survey is considered expensive and the present exped- ition is a shoestring compromise. Dr. Cwilong was born in Irkutsk, Siberia, son of a Polish judge de- ported in the days of the Czars. As a 14-year-old 'schoolboy, he won a bet by paddling down two Polish rivers to Warsaw in a washtub, making the trip in five days." An accomplished yachtsman, | author of technical books, painter sculptor and expert on 'spectros- copy, Dr. Cwilong made his first round-the-world voyage in 1936. He spent the Second World War at Ox- ford, where his investigations into freezing of aircraft at high alti- tudes provided a basis for pro- duction of artificial rainfall and brought him the Johnson Memor- ial Prize, awarded every four years for outstanding work in meteoro- logy or astronomy. Before going to Vancouver, he spent three years in New Zealand. visiting committee for the month. Mrs. A. Reynolds and Mrs. Edgar Heron were appoint- ed as the program committee for the November meeting and it was | decided to hold it in the church basement. The meeting closed with the Jepeating: of the Mizpah benedic- ion. A delicious Hallowe'en lunch was served by the refreshment committee and a social time en- joyed by everyone.

Ducks by the thousands have been suming in for landings and taking off.- Their favorite landing area is at the end of the new 8,600- foot jet-age runway which cost more than $1,000,000 to build. The ducks pay no attention to airplanes. In one. week, two Trans- Canada Air Lines planes were grounded for compulsory checks after flying through flights of ducks.

AY.Jackson's Art Spans All Canada TORONTO (CP) -- A one-mah Jackson started his career as a commercial lithographer, design- ing barrel labels and cighr bands. Before the First World War he studied in Europe and canvases from that period show the influence of French impressionists. His Cana- dian work of the period included "The Edge of the' Maple Wood," a well-known picture now in the National Gallery, Ottawa. He was an official artist for Canadan war records during the First World War. Then he painted the destructive effects of war on landscape with no sentimentality. The majority of the pictures in the show have been done since the First World War. They show how Jackson has, criss-crossed Canada and penetrated the northland to paint its earth forms, exploring the meaning of mountains, streams, woodlands' and lakes. The Jackson show moves to the National Gallery in Ottawa at the end of November.
