THURS., FEBRUARY 19, 1942 AMEND ale Uh LEYBURIAN Page Seven Old Country Airmen Learn Ski-ing While On Visit To North Enjoyed Experience and Made Fair Progress; Familiar With Skating Two young men from the Old Country, memibers of the Royal Air Force on duty at an Ontario depot of that branch of the fight- ing services, made their first ac- quaintance with the art of ski- ing during a visit to New Lis- keard which, beginning last Sat- urday morning, extends until this evening's southbound train. The Air Force boys are LAC John Shephard and LAC Alexander "Sandy" Mutch, and both have been guests of Reeve J. H. Sum- bler of Dymond and Mrs. Sum- bler. They enjoyed the experience and got along fairly well, they considered, according to the opin- ions they expressed on Monday during brief chat with the press. They also took part in other win- ter joys of the North Country and met many citizens at social gatherings, although skating was not new to either, since there are facilities at Picton, where they are stationed, and as LAC Mutch said,, there is an artificial ice rink in Aberdeen, his home city. In civilian life LAC Shephard is an aircraft apprentice, and he picked out from a series of photo- graphs on display on the news- paper counter a picture of the type of machine--the Defiant--on which he had been working in the Old Country. His home city is Birmingham, and he is making his second trip north, as he was in the district at the New Year with a chum. LAC Mutch is a motor mechanic by trade. Both have been in Canada since last September and are with the R.A. F. bombing and gunnery school in the Prince Edward county town. LAC Mutch is an Australian by birth and he had lived in the state of Victoria, in and out of Mel- bourne, he explained. Some years ago, he went to Scotland, home of his parents, and he had never seen snow until he reached the Old Country. He-expressed the view that Canada was more like Aus- tralia in many respects than the Old Country.
