} THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, June 22nd, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- /€PR YARDS MARSHALLING YARD COST $15,000,000 "Ever hear of "Crump's Hump?" That's the unofficial name of the CPR's new $15,000,000 electronic, push-button freight classification Yard at Agin- court opened last week. p » We visited it. It's something to write home about, symbolic of the new era of rail transportation which combines electronic equip- ment, ultra-modern telecommunications, new supervisory ¢ystems and methods and market-oriented planning to provide quicker, better service. ' President N. R. Crump of the CPR and his associates can be proud of this sprawl- ing yard of 432 acres, with 90 miles of track, 311 track switches and a standing ca- pacity of 5,115 cars. It has a labor force of 820, including ; train crews: E Primarily the yard was designed to speed the flow of freight cars to, from and % through Toronto. It's modern as a space ship, can handle 3,000 cars daily. The CPR says it's the most automated freight clas- as sification operation in Can- ada. In addition to the com- puter and radar, it makes extensive use of television, Ry N. R: CRUMP integrated data processing, microwave, radio, and several remote control and autonfatic systems to sort freight"Cats and group them into trains bound for common destinations. Some 2,000,000 cubic yards of earth and rock - énough to make a pile 100 feet long, 100 feet wide and close to a mile high - were removed to level the site. The yard classifies ears on a production line basis by pushing incoming trains ~one at a Time--over a man-made hill or '"'hump" where they are uncoupled and each car rolls down the hump into one of 63 tracks which fan out at the bottom of the slope. Each track represents a different destination and cars are pul- led from the tracks, in sequence, to make up trains. Push-buttons, transistors and miles of electronic cuits allow one man to control the more than 1,000 train movements made each day over the rail approaches, Known as centralized traffic control (CTC), the push-button system is the first transistorized installation of its type in Canada. Built to handle some 3,000 rail cars CP hauls daily to, from and through the Toronto area, the yard has been under con- struction for four years. It's well worth a visit for rail buffs and others. cir POLICE, NEEDED AT BAND CONCERTS Too bad that the colorful operiing program of the Band of the Onjario Regiment in the McLaughlin Bandshell, Mem- orial Park last Thursday had to be marred by the noisy, dis- turbing behavior of unchaperoned youngsters in the 6-10 age group -- these kiddies constantly disturbed the fine program with their shouting, noisy guns and firecrackers, so much so that many of the older folks departed before the end simply to escape the noisé Would it not be advisable to have the police on hand in future to prevent a repetition of such unnecessary disturb- ances, which make a mockery of the whole program? These band concerts are a cherished local institution, and have been since 1942 when Col, R. S. McLaughlin donated: the Bandshell to the City. Let's clamp down on these disturbances before the members of the Band, and the audience, give up in despair More than 300 showed up for Thursday's program to hear 'ie GM Male Boy's Choir, the GM Pipe Band and the Band of the Ontario Regiment Did you notice those two Canadian Ensigns and the two Union Jacks over the bandstand?

FLQ Marchers London Leading _| Urse Political Prisoner Status 'UK-US Trading | LONDON (AP)--The heavy traffic in capital investment be- tween the United States and Britain has lately posed an in- triguing query: Which country owns more of the other? Surprisingly, the answer seems to be that the British own a bigger slice of the U.S. than Americans own of Britain. The matter was brought into focus recently when Chrysler Motors set about buying up a modest section of the. British motor industry For a thd of £12,300,000 Chrys- ler sought T obtain a holding of 30-35 per cent on Rootes Motors Limited -- a company which ranks as one of the smaller British motor manufacturers and which now finds itself in need of fresh capital. Though the deal involved no change in company control, there were immediate warnings of a creeping tendency for the commanding heights of the Brit- ish economy to fall under direc- tion of Wall Street.

OUTLINE EXPLAINED An outline of the evolving British attitude was given by in- formants in advance of journeys to Washington by the premiers of Turkey and Greece, Ismet |Inonu and George Papandreou. Both have been invited to stop jover in London on their~way home; the Greek premier has 'accepted. In describing the British ap- proach to a settlement of the prolonged Cyprus dispute the in- formants stressed two things: 1. The situation seems to be so charged with danger and un- certainty that. some unexpected turn of events could force a to- tal reappraisal, 2, British policy and thinking on the over-all Cyprus affair in large measure coincides with the! views of the U.S. The first hint of Britain's latest assessment was given to the house of Commons Wednes- day by Foreign Secretary Rich- ard Butler.
