Hill That's Quicker Than The Eye Most people thou ght we were crazy; but not ahi of them. Some thougbt we were coming home fromn a well-celebrabed ml-night spree. It was about 7 a.m.- and 2t fihe foot of eacb downgrade in the higbway our hittie roadster chortled' to a stop and waited, silently, as if it needed to - gel it breath befere attempting the next rise. l was understandable if far- mers carrying pails of milk from their barnýs suspecîed that the three occupants of bbe car were baving a* convîval swig e-very 200 yards.; One who sauntered over miust have been convinced of il. "Having troulble" he asked. "Oh, nlo, thanks," was bbc rheerfuhily carnesî reply. "We just wanted to sçe if we cauLld coast back up Ibis bill." We were on the Mauntaini YRoad-once an Indian traîl, iater B pioncer wagonrot-wic Ieads fromn Moncton, N.B., ta- ward the genîle slape of Lutes Mountain. It was a crisp June mnorning in 1933 and tbree Saint Jonnewspapermen - John G. Bruce. Jack Brayhey and I-were on anl exploraîory jaunt that wvas te have a big impact on New Brunswick's tourist trade. Haif an bour and 10 stops laI- er, six miles from Moncton, at the last dip before bbe dirt roadj climbed uip to meet an inter- zecting bhighway, we were ready f0 -ive 7uP hope. 41f Ibis isn'I it," ph:ilosopbized Bruce as be swiîched off the ignition and put the gears in neutral, "we'hl 'have a nice 2-50- mile round trip anywç.ay." Brayhey and 1 were almost too SleePy to answer. (We had left Saint John afler putting Thýe Telegraph-Joit.rnal 10 bcd at 3.3 ir.-shortly af er wbich, we wzouhd bave rolhed into bed too.) Then showhy, eerily, starlingly, Kre began tb move--backwards'- up the bihl we had just dle- îended!

I visited the hili last sumn- mler for bbe first lime since 1933, and -as srprisýed ta find thatl Mr[js. Li-d(wig iosi who runrs the tourist sbhop, is the formier Muitriel1 Lutesý who 22 ýyears before had so)ld us an ice-cream- break- fast. She rememnbered aour event- fui excursion. "I moved da,.wn fromi the other road in 1935," she explainied, "but I stîilspiecialize in home- madle ice cra as well a i, New Brunswick bcwetadbt termilk pancakes wiî h aur own mnaple syrup, and I1 stili seilIm petrial iFls g1asolinie." Ironîcally, hiere the visitor sees an Esso) gas pLImp at a location v:where cars flack to travel uiphili wit.h- ou', u3ing gasoline. "One Sun- day in August more thian 3,500 people came aut bL try the bilîl,"> she said. "We figure about 1170- 0'00 ,people visit us eacb year. Almost everyone who visits Moncton draps in -- Princess Alexan)dra, the dlaughîlier of the Duchess of Kent, drove out here ev-en though the oyal train was maýking onrly a short Stop- over in town." One American, , Sikorski. recalled, brougÎht bis own car- penter's level ai the wayv fromr Califom ia to test the bilIl. "Hle told !us laler the level neyer mworkei prope.rly af 1er that." Human nature, it seemns, ex- hibits quirks as odd4 as the hili Itself. One visitor claixped that coasting up the bil- had helped bis arthrîbis.

Thiere's an up-to-dlate sequel b rue' original visit to the Magnetic Hill. In its rush to reach prorogation, the 1955 ses- sion of the New Brunswick Legislature nearly passed a pew Motor Vehlicle Act tihat in Voart readi: The driver of any motor ve- bide wll traveling upon a dlowngrade shalh not coast with t'le geqrs of such 've- bide,ý in nural. Reading this in thei news col- umnns, John Bruce -- now asso- diate editor of The Telegraph- Journal - immiedîiately saw its its imiplications: the House was iilacing itself in 'hle awk- ward position of 1egis1ating one niatural touirist assetc's Out of business. The nx day an edtitorial duly pain ted this outI. tt governmien-t andl opposition spokesmnan brouLiht it up on, the floor )f the Legisiature. Cabin- et members concerned hasllly gave assurance that speciali pro- vision wýould be mnade for the ManteHill to g«o -on enter- taining neutral-g-eared cars. This gives Bruice quite an 2as- sociation with- the hil - he helped launch il on its way te fame, -and then, nearly a quar- ter of a century laler, saved it 'rom oblivion.
