IN MEMORIAM ROWN -- In loving memory of a dear : husband and father, Edward N. Brown, who passed away February 12, Ho: 1954 1948. He is gone but mol forgotten, And, as dawns another year, In our lonely hours of thinking, Thoughts of him are always Jess. come Be Of an the wound is healed, "It's hungty.". said Fred Ander- son one of the men at the harbor who has been admiring the swan since last fall. "It hasn't had any- thing to eat since yesterday." ICE CAME SUDDENLY 'That ice really came guddenly, + he said, pointing to the harbor which was completely ice-covered "That was all free water yester- day afternoon." * "It must have got sleepy in the cold and the ice caught it," added Tom Gormley, another veteran har- bor man. "The only reason it hangs around here," he said, "is that some hunter shot its mate over in those marshes last fall." He indicated the strip of marsh adjacent to the part of the harbor near the coal yards. "It keeps coming hack looking for her. Swans mate for life you know." "Oh when the water is free," Mr, Gormley continued, "he comes swimming past that pier over there looking like the Queen Mary." Sudden Cold Snap Traps White Swan "It's a beautiful thing," agreed Fred Anderson. SAW NO MOVEMENT At first this morning the men feared the bird was -dead. Impris- oned in the ice about 75 yards out from the pier wall, no movement could be detected. But Apderson noted the slightly darker sur- rounding the swan's body and in- sisted there was still some body heat being generated, This opinion later proved to be true as the bird d the jecrle moving along the pier w and raised its head to look about. MAY USE BOAT The ice was too thin to walk on, but the harhor men were consider- ing Joshi a boat over it so they could reach the bird and free it. "That ice will cut a sharp-hot- tomed boat to pieces," Mr. Gorm- ley observed. What they needed was a small flat bottomed scow. But they didn't have one by presstime today and the bird was still in its icy fetters. Officials of the Humane Society and of the Oshawa Fish and Game Protective Assoc. were contacted and steps were being taken to ef- fe 0ntiL then: the city's only speci ntil n, the city's only speci- men of the traditionally beautiful and graceful swan will continue to be ice-locked in the frigid lake waters -- starving and freezing. "There's such a well-informed | public here in Canada, it's difficult to find a new subject to talk about," Rev, Joseph E. Venini, re- | cently, expelled by the Communists | 23 years in China, said last night | in prefacing his remarks to the Oshawa Kinsmen Club, Father Venini, who was introduc- ed as a man who once plaved jun- for hockey here, said that despite his 28 years there, he had seen so little of the vast country that, is China, he was fearful of giving | a false impression. The Oshawa missionary then pro- CNR tracks a northbound car sud- denly aphesred on the wrong side of the bridge and sideswiped the McWhirter car. It stopped further | down the road, two men climbed | out the right hand door and one of them disappeared. Damage to the car driven by McWhirter was estimated at 3 Constable William Cairney plaec- ed the point of impact at two feet over the centre line on MeWhirt- er's side. The road narrows to 18 feet six inches at the bridge. Dam- age to Burnett's car was estimat- keep. | od at $700. The man from the other car who remained at the scene, was Peter Siblock, 273 Ballard Street, who testified that Burnett, who was driving the car, left immediately after the collision, telling Sibloc to "look after things". Siblock freely admitted that both had n drinking, and that Burnett was in "not too good" condition, Constable Cairney said that Sib- lock was drunk. Defense Counsel, Arthur W. 8. Greer, QC, did not put the defend- ant in the witness box. He based his defence on the fact that Sib. lock, the only one to see the driv- er, was drunk. The Crown, he said, had no proof that Burnett was in the car. Magistrate F, S. Ebbs felt that Burnett was 'apparently not a reliable driver". This was further substantiated, he felt, by a drunk driving conviction three years ago, for ich Burnett spent 10 days ail. of a memory who BUECHLER--In loving dear father, Reinhold Buechler, . passed away Feburary 13, 1951.

"In China the artisans start from the beginning and com- | plete the project themselves." When you hire a carpenter to build a chair in China, you first buy a tree for him to work with, the priest explained. The carpen- ter comes to your house and lives there while he makes the lumber and builds the almost nailless chair. Chinese blacksmiths, of course, |i did not shoe horses, since China contains no horses, Instead they made nails and other similar items. The gray-bearded missionary de- scribed clearly how the tiny rice ed is nurtured and then planted hand in wet, hot fields. He told of the simple but effective tilling instruments used by the Chinese and explained the Dperation meth- ods of their "thresh g machines' and "winnowing mills". BOUNDARIES UNCERTAIN The boundaries and population of China like everything else there was a "Chinese puzzle"; he said. The area was much the same as Canada's but the paqpulation was | between 400 and 500 million. Priest Tells Of Lite Among Chinese Peasants "No one knows," he said, "where Mongolia or Tibet ends and China begins." Referring briefly to the comin of the. Communists, Father Venin said that about 200 people in his area who were thought to have been connected with the Nationa- list regime had. been liquidated. WELL HYPNOTIZED "The mass of the people in China are neither communist nor anti- communist,' he reported. 'The few who are fanatically communist have been well hypnotized by end- less propaganda. For most, their sole occupation is to get rice into their bowls." "We can never realize the dang- ers of Communism for Canada," he warned. "But in guardin against it we should keep in min one question: Why is Commun- ism?" : Stories of Father Venini's Sxpey. iences in China have appeare: The Times-Gazette at intervals dur- ing past years. Most of these were based on letters received by the priest's sister, Mrs. L. Karnath, 146 Centre Street, Oshawa, The mis- glonary was home for two months n e After his explusion from China, last year, Father Venini arrived home early in January. In a per- sonal interview then, the account of which appeared in this paper January 12 and was later carried across Canada, Father Venini re- vealed he had as much trouble getting through the United States as he did getting out of Communist China. Finally, with the lack of a visa, he was hustled through the country under guard and deposited over the border into Canada. The Oshawa missionary plans to stay here only long enough to make arrangements to return to China. Army Looking For Bigger And Better Fighting Tanks By DAVE McNTOSH Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP)--The army is looking for better, and possibly bigger, tanks even before it com- Rates its conversion to the 52-ton ritish Centurions. The estimates for the 1954-55 fis- cal year, tabled in the Commons last week, show an appropriation of $26,064,000 for tanks and arm- ored fighting vehicles, a $8,254,000 increase over the amount ear- marked for such equipment in the year ending March 31 The army may buy a later model of the Centurion or the monster British Caernarvon, a new tank which has passed tests and is about the same size as the stand- ard 70-ton tanks in the Russian army. British tanks are considered the best available, The {anadion army has been gradual replacing its United States Sherman tanks with Brit ish Centurions and delivery on or- ders placed about a year age are expected to be completed in March lor April, SHERMANS IN KOREA The 1st Canadian infantry bri: gade in Germany is equipped with Centurions, but the infantry bri- gade in Korea still has Shermans, now considered outmoded. The Lord Strathcona's Horse of Cal- gary provides the tank units for both brigades--D squadron in Ger- many and A squadron in Korea. A squadron is to be relieved in March by the Royal Canadian Dragoons of Petawawa, Ont. At home Canada's two armored regiments, Lord Strathcona's and Dragoons, are equipped mostly with Shermans, but they also have some 65 Centurions. Each regiment requires about 85 tanks and others are needed for training and reserve, The Centurion, which mounts a 20-pounder and travels 20 to 30 miles an hour on the flat, is cheaper than the Sherman, which carries a 17-pounder. The U.S. Army has 500 centurions on order, Farouk Items Dispersed At World's Biggest Sale By CHARLES MERCER NEW YORK (AP)--Would you like a bloodstone bodkin case?

STAMPS TO ORDER Gold, silver, precious stones, weird clocks and watches, stamps, coins, fantastic trinkets bravura bric-a-brac -- all the unnecessary things of life that make the differ- ene between a monarch and a mule-skinner will be auctioned off through next month, Among Farouk's kingly passions was stamps. A spokesman here for . R.

Thus, for ex- ample, he had complete special sheets of stamps with "cancelled" printed on the back of each in Arabic and English on alternating stamps. But even more curious are the tens of thousands of rare and val- uable objects which are being auc- tioned under the direction of Southeby and Co. of London.
