Earth Expands Like A Balloon LONDON (AP) -- A British physicist says there is evidence the earth is mysteriously ex- panding like a balloon and is now nearly twice its original size. The theory is put forward by Dr. K. M. Creer of the New- castle University physics depart- ment in an article in the science magazine, Nature. Creer notes that the earth's great land masses and their continental shelves -- the edges shallowly submerged beneath the seas -- now cover only 30 per cent of the planet's surface. On an earth only 55 per cent as big, these land masses could have covered the entire surface of the globe, Creer says, and "the present shapes of the con- tinents are consistent with the supposition that they once com- prised a complete outer shell of a smaller earth. Geologists have long been in- trigued by the fact that; for in- stance, the eastern edge of the continent of South America would fit almost perfectly into the western edge of Africa if they were pushed together, sug- gesting that once both were part of the same land mass. There also would be an ex- Veterans' Council * Elects Executive The new executive of the Osh- awa and District United Council| of Veterans' Association was elected at the annual meeting of the association over the week- | end. Delegates from each fo the| following organizations were also welcomed: Canadian Corps Association; Unit 42, Ontario) Ontario Regiment Association, Oshawa Naval Veterans' Asso- ciation; Gen. W. Sikorski Polish Veterans' Association, and the Royal Canadian Air Force As- | sociation, Wing 420. In 1964 the UCVA completed | their constitution, designed a dis- | tinctive banner for the associa- tion, the best marching unit in the} Dominion Day Folk Festival. The following special guests from the Hamilton UCVA were invited to attend the meet- ing and they acted as installing and election officers: Walter Preston, president; Zygmunt Florek, vice-president; H. Black; past president; George Winn, executive member and John Fuller executive mem- | ber. The new executive for the | UCVA for 1965 is: Frank Davis!

The age of the earth is gen- erally estimated at 4,500,000,000 years. Creer suggests that all the land masses were in one piece when the earth was about 1,000- 000,000 years old and that this shell cracked and the segments drifted apart during an expan- sion process which has been going .on for the succeeding 3,500,000,000 years. Creer says the source of the vast energy needed to bring about such a ballooning of the globe is still a mystery. "For an adequate explana- tion, we may well have to await a satisfactory theory of the origin and development of the universe," he sayd. 'In the meantime, we should beware of rejecting the hypothesis of ex- pansion out of hand on grounds that no known sources of ener- gy are adequate. "Jt may be fundamentally wrong to attempt to extrapolate make inferences from the laws of physics as we know them today to times of the order of the age of the earth and of Mary St. PS Holds Meet Fairies, goblins, rather than the exception when Mary Street School held its an- nual Ice Carnival. lowing are the results: time -- Joanne Hare, Leanne Peer.
