Ron Bowdon and Ken Pollock were right behind Crowley in the of the Oakville Model Flying Club. Taking part in the show were W. G. Hitchcox, Doug Collins, George Broadbent and Ted Broad- bent. About half-a-dozen models were flown--neatly constructed bright-colored miniatures of reg- ular machines, each powered by a tiny motor. To each plane was at- tached a long wire, the end of which was held by the demon- strator during flight. With its motor _ droning like a million angry 'hornets each of the little machines would take off from the ground and rise into the air to. a height of perhaps fifty feet or more to go flying around in a circle. Manipulated by the man holding the wire, each plane was put through a series of movements simulating faithfully those of a full-sized plane. © An outstanding! blocking line.

Oficial charts disclosed that August mean levels were but 0.05 feet lower than the average stage of Aug ust during the last 10 years and only .0.28 feet higher than the average for the last 90 Augusts. Present level is a full 1.96 feet lower than; the highest August (1862) since 1860, but some 2.39 feet higher than the lowest Aug- ust. (1934) in the same period. Rr ee LA tators. With George Broadbent he put on a demonstration of team flying, the two planes circling around in a manner suggestive of an aerial "dogfight." A novel touch was provided by a flight of one of George Broadbent's models towing a small glider. Doug Collins is president of the Model Flying Club, which was formed about the first of the year and has about fifteen members. ENGAGED GIRLS i NEW HOMEMAKERS teen.
