Eddie de- Octogenarian On Honeymoon With Wife, 75 NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. (CP) 4| William H. Pinnock, a sprightly octogenarian who founded the St. John Ambulance Brigade in Canada, is honeymooning here with his 75-year-old wife. The newlyweds, widow and widower before their marriage, decided on this traditional honeymoon spot following their wedding Saturday in the Angli- can church at Burford, near Brantford. Mr. Pinnock, 3, indicated his marriage resulted from a twinge of the old enterprising spirit that made him a pioneer Klin volunteer first aid work dur- ing his youth in England, South Africa and Canada. Teh bridegroom, a farmer, shoemaker and county consta- ble in Brant for some 30 years, A\has lived in Burford for more 4\nock's daughter, than 40 years. His first wife died last year after almost 63 years of marriage. The new Mrs. Pinnock, for- merly Mrs. Coral Higgins - of London, Ont., was widowed seven years ago. Their families have been friends for several Jlyears. Mr. Pinnock's son Alfred of London was best man at Sat- urday's wedding and Mrs. Pin- Mrs, Dairy Muadsley of London, was ma- tron of honor.

By GEROGE McNEVIN TORONTO (CP)--The people of Africa are taking to Chris- tianity with an intensity that makes North American Chris- tians "look like dilettantes," Rey. Peter G. White, superin- tendent of Sunday school pub- licaitons for the United Church of Canada, said Tuesday night. Mr. White, in an address con- cluding first-day activities of the first annual meeting of the board of women of the United Church, said African young' people are approaching -Chris- tianity eagerly and asking ques- tions to which people with a much longer Christian history and tradition are hard put to find answers. Such quesitons as why three Africans should be executed for the death of one white and "are the men who make hydrogen bombs Christians?" could not be dismissed casually. An explanation of the British legal procedures by which the murders were convicted failed to impress the asker, who re- U Thant Opposed plied that the victim had for- given them before she died Afircans were equally unim- pressed when told that the hy- drogen bomb is a symbol of progrses. HEAR REPORTS In business sessions, reports were heard from conference chairman from Newfoundland to British Columbia, dealing with problems created by for- mation of the new board to govern the United Church Women, organized in January to replace the Women's Mis- sionary Society and the Women's Association. The 50-member board repre- sents about 350,000 members. In reports of conference chairman, several indicated a reluctance on the part of some of the old groups to join the UCW. Mrs. E. L. Shonkwiler, president of the Montreal-Ot- tawa conference, said of 65 womens' groups, only 56 had indicated willingness to join. Mrs. W. A. Weatherhead of Sharbot Lake, Ont., president of the Bay of Quinte Conference, reported a similar situation. There was no estimate avail- THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, April 25, 1962 19 Christians In Africa Lauded For Intensity able of the number of group or .|members who have remained outside the UCW. Mrs. K. R. Rose of Toronto, reporting for Mrs. W. M. Mc- Intyre who was absent, and Mrs. R. J. Davidson of Regina, president of the Saskatchewan Conference, criticized the board's existing constitution. SHOULD HAVE RIGHTS Mrs. Rose said local presi- dents should have voting rights at the presbyterial level--they now are denied this--and Mrs. Davidson said the constitution and bylaws need "streamlining and clarification." President Mrs. J. D. Hutchine son of Toronto said in her ad- dress there is a need for a re- appraisal of the roles of men and women' in church work. Women broke new ground with formation of their own board but there could be "no great change in their status without a corresponding change in the status of men." A worship service officially inaugurating the new board, was conducted at the start of the sessions by Moderator Rt. Rev. Hugh A. McLeod. To Nuclear Tests UNITED NATIONS (AP) -- Acting Secretary - General U Thant urged the nuclear powers Tuesday to refrain from any further test explosions of nu- clear weapons. Thant told a luncheon of the United Natious Correspondents' Association that the UN Gen- eral Assembly had stated its views clearly in opposition to further nucelar testing.

Minor infractions which now cost a driver three of his points would mean a smaller ioss in future. However, there will be a sharp increase in points lost for such serious offences: as driving with a suspended licence and hit-and-run driving. CALLED REAL MENACES "These people are the real menaces," one transport de- partment official explained, "and we mean to lift them right off the road." The increase to 15 in the num- ber of points is designed to give greater effect to the department's preventive work. driver who has accumulated nine demerit points is called in for an inter- view with a senior department official who seeks to improve the drivers' habits and attitude. It was understood that some drivers--paricularly among the At present, a FOCUS ON HEALTH By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Topics this week: Bor- rowed hearts, vacationing hearts and imsurance for red blood cells. THE LIVING HEART There is new evidence that the heart may live on for a time--even after the body is dead. It has been proved, at least, with the hearts of guinea pigs. Cornell University doc- tors have been able to revive the hearts of guinea pigs dead for up to 15 minutes. "The results suggest that there is a definite, probably short, period of time after death that a heart can be re- moved (from a human being) and still function," reported Dr. S. Frank Redo and Dr. Frank Glenn. Should doctors ever solve the problem of transplanting one person's tissues into an- other's body, there is the hope that the hearts of newly-dead persons might be used to re- place diseased hearts in the living. Major obstacle to this, however, is the fact that the human body tends to destroy or reject tissue not its own. VACATIONING HEARTS Can the heart be removed from the living body, repaired and then replced in the body to take over the task of living again? Many scientists are working on new techniques toward that end. Now it is reported that surgeons have borrowed the hearts from dogs for up to two' hours, then replaced those hearts in the living an- imals. The dogs, kept alive in the Prolonged Life Seen For Heart meantime by a heart - lung machine, showed no apparent ill effects. The Stanford University surgeons who performed the operations said the technique may be helpful for some of the 15,000 babies born each year with heart problems that cannot be repaired with the heart in the body. RED BLOOD INSURANCE Each red blood cell carries a tiny insurance policy to make certain more red blood cells are produced, research- ers report. The insurance policy is a tiny molecule called Hemin, found in the skin of each blood cell. An injection of Hemin boosts red cell production some 30 per cent, reported Dr. John A. D. Cooper, Noe ler and James R. Brown of Northwestern Uni- versity. The biochemists discovered that red blood cell production can be boosted by a whole battery of compounds related to Hemin and now they are trying to find out how they coax the bone marrow into producing more cells.

Bradfield of Toronto, president of Noranda Mines Limited, was inducted in Ottawa today as president of PRESIDENT the Canadian Institute of g and Metallurgy at the institute's annual meeting. (CP Wirephoto) Emergency TV Network Planned OTTAWA (CP) -- Almost all radio and television stations in Canada will be hooked into an gone emergency network, he transport department said Tuesday. A smaller network already has been patched together by the army and the CBC and could be put into operation with a few minutes' notice of, say, a nuclear attack. It would carry warnings and instructions to the public. The network expansion will take in all broadcasting stations except a few in the far North. There are about 290 radio sta- tions and approximately 110 TV stations in Canada. done by the CBC and the army. Some programs would originate from underground studios built into the fedral and rgional control centres across Canada.
