1 QQ THR COHAWA Tuam, ' Wednesday, September 23, 1964 Red Chinese Open Tourist Gates Wide By IAN McCRONE HONG KONG (Reuters) -- Communist China is opening its gates to adventurous tourists. Even Americans are welcome except that their own govern- ments won't allow them to enter this unrecognized part of the Red world. The speediest Chinese Visas, @vailable in a matter of'a few days, go to travellers holding airplane tickets and going to Canton or Shanghai to pick up flights out of China. They are allowed to stay in Canton for two days in transit, Would - be travellers trom @ther lands, such as Australia which is a major source of tour- ists entering China, haye to wait "maybe @ month" for a visa, a China travel service} representative said, Visas are usually issued more readily to groups of tourists, but individuals can also take tours. Admission to the 'forbidden city" of Peking, the Chinese capital, however, still requires a @pecial permit. In recent months Chinese Communist authorities have stated that travel restrictions are being relaxed to encourage more outsiders to see the "new China." A number of Hong Kong resi- dents going on leave to Europe in recent months have taken the old overland railroad route through Peking and Moscow, Two foreign airlines, the Cam- bodian Royal Airline, and Pak- istan International, now have landing rights for regular serv- ices to mainland Chinese cities, and there has been increased transit traffic between Hong Kong and Canton recently Language Barriers By JACK PICKETTS CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) -- Right in the midst of contro- versy over bilingualism in Can- ada, a language study group is turning up evidence of verbal barriers among Canadians os- tensibly speaking the same lan- guage. For example, figure out these words in common use among English-speaking Canadians as- sociated with hardrock mining across the country: Shifter, trammer, king-nipper, mucker, slusherman, grizzly- man, biaster. It's easy: A shifter is a fore- man, the trammer works a joc, the king-nipper operates a tug- e the mucker a muckstick, slusherman, naturally, a slusher, the grizzlyman a griz- tly, while the blaster fires rounds. The miner, working either a double-jack: or single-jack job, might worry about the sprags while working a stope. But if he's an ea type, he might drill widowmaker. A baffled but enthralled Ca- nadian Linguistic Association heard all about it here this summer from Charles Crate, who is studying at the Univer- sity of British Columbia and working with severa] other edi- tors to compile a dictionary of Canadianisms for lication by the 1967 centennial of Confeder- @tion. Mr, Crate, 44, has spent most of his life in the North working at times in mines and for a time as editor of 2 monthly newspaper in Yellowknife, N.W.T. DRIVES LOCI A trammer, Mr. Crate ex- lains, is the man who drives underground vehicle br replgeed pit ponies or mules and 'is known as an electric mule or a loci. . The king-nipper- is boss of the nippers, men who transport ma- terials in the mine with a com- pressed-air hoist known as a tugger. The mucker shifts muck-- broken ore or waste rock--and the shovel the mucker once|- .used was known as a muck- stick, although nowadays he operates a mucking machine. The slusherman operates a scraper (slusher) to move bro- ken rock. The grizzlyman breaks up llr hammering edi ge Bagg er dies both the chisel and a smaller hammer. Sprags are three-inch timbers used for shoring, an -- safety feature while working a stope, a chamber driven up- ward in a vein of ore. A miner drilling widowmaker is one so careless that he ne- giects to use a water attach- ment on his drill to dampen down quartz dust, thus leaving himself vulnerable to the min- ing lung: disease, silicosis, But according to one tradition there a really only three cate- PRINTED 'MAGIC CREPE' JACKET DRESSES Beautiful ni two-piece dresses with the look pa feel of crepe.
