When I set out the gap was only about 50 feet, but when I got there, it was over 100 feet wide, and impossible to handle the boat in that wind," he said.

It took almost four hours before the last man was safely ashore. Weston Fisher, 41, of Utica, Mich., said by the time his group noticed they had broken free, there was 30 feet of open water between them and the mainiand.

The gross rate for all-electric heating in Ajax is 1.1 cents per kilowatt hour Mr. Sanders stated. The Ajax Hydro manager said that there are eight all- electrically heated homes in Ajax, with eight more under construction. At the January meeting of the Ajax Hydro Commission, he said, it was decided to under- take financing of a complete electric heating system for ex- isting, or new homes, in the Town of Ajax, during the next three months, February to April inclusive.

The hounds were side- tracked by lumps of fresh meat along the trail, led by a false scent into a cul-de-sac, and bewildered by a series of false hunting horn calls.
