se i. a THURSDAY, AUGUST 6th, 1942 ( \ \ \ Ma THE HAILEYBURIAN Page Three Has Ship Lost By Enemy Action; Now In Air Force Trip Overseas on War Service; A Former Haileyburian The following interesting sketch of the wartime activities of a former local boy was received a few days ago by The Haileyburian: "Edward H. McKinlay, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. McKinlay, once a resi- dent of Haileybury and a student at the Haileybury Mining School, will soon be leaving for overseas service again. In his first overseas service he held the berth of a Junior Engineer Officer on the motor ship Macy, which was at- tached to the British Merchant Navy. ------ After the loss of his ship by enemy action he returned home and went to work at the Defence Industries Limit- ed at Nobel, Ont., as a guncotton anal- ystin their main laboratory. At the end of ten months he was in line for posi- tion of shift foreman in the guncotton lab., but sacrificed this position to join the R.C.A.F. and begin training for the position of radio technician. Since then he has successfully taken the course at McGill University in Montreal, and later graduated as a Leading Aircraftsman from the R.A.F. radio school at Clinton, Ont. While at the Clinton school in addi- tion to his other duties he was given the position of flight-commander which he still holds. At present he is spending his em- barkation leave with his parents at Midland, Ont., which is the town of his birth. He wishes to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Wm. Tuke, principal of the Haileybury Mining School, for the kind assistance given in helping him secure this position in the radio branch of the R.CA.F." Mrs. Ann Shipley of Kirkland Lake, in a radio interview last week, said there was no probability of the gold mines shutting down or their produc- tion being seriously curtailed by war conditions. i Golf Club Notes The third qualifying round for the President's Cup was played last Satur- day and Sunday. The final result show- ed that Ron Morissette and Don Camp- bell had quaified with 82-18-64 and 76- 7-69 respectively. The Gordon Cup event, which deter- mines the Junior Champion; has been postponed. The new date will be an- nounced later. As the date set for the President's Cup final, Saturday, August ISth, con- flicts with the dates set for the tour- naments to be held at Kirkland Lake and Sudbury, it has been decided to postpone this event. The Seagram golf tournament will be held at Sudbury on the 14th and 15th of August and the Invitation tour- nament will be held at Kirkland Lake on the 14th, 15th and 16th. All mem- bers of the Haileybury Golf Club are eligible to play in either tournament. All those planning to participate in either tournament are requested to get in touch with the Captain. Arrangements have been made ta broadcast the scores in the first and second days' play in the Canadian Cpen Golf Championship, and also the final day (Saturday, August 8). The Thursday and Friday time will be 6.30 to 6.45 p.m., while on Saturday from 3.30 to 5.00 and 5.30 to 6.00, with the presentation ceremony following the final round. There will be a meeting of the Lawn Bowling Club on Friday evening at 8 o'clock, on the court house greens. There have been 3,546 desertions from the Canadian army since the outbreak of war, 31 from the air force and 91 from the navy, according to a return tabled in the House of Commons. Notes of the North TOOK LONG BIKE TRIP A bicycle trip of well over four hun- dred miles was taken as part of his annual holiday by Harold Bailey, mes- senger here for the T. & N.O. tele- graphs, and who has been back on the job on Monday following a vacation of two weeks. He took his wheel with him to North Bay by train, and from that centre cycled over Highway Num- ber Seventeen to Montreal, later re- turning as far as Ottawa. where he boarded the train again for home. On his return, Harold said he had experienced no tire or any other kind of trouble on the trip--Temiskaming Speaker. --_>---- CAN'T LOCATE BODY On Sunday, Mr. Sol Sky and a party including Coroner F. C. Evans spent the day on Night Hawk river and lake in another search for the body of David Sky, thought to have been drowned last fall in this vicinity. They found a hip-boot and a half a jacket recognized as belonging to the missing man, but as yet no body. The provin- cial police are making a thorough search today of the river and bush at the point where these articles of clothing were found. Mr. S. Sky has made many week-end searches for the body of his nephew since the spring break-up but until Sunday no definite personal traces (except his canoe) have been found.-- Porcupine Advance. SS, INDIANS' PROUD RECORD Officers conducting the aptitude tests for recruits from the Cochrane dist- trict were surprised slightly yesterday when they travelled to Cochrane to ad- minister the tests to five Indians who had filed application for enlistment in the active forces. All the Indians passed the examina- tions. And one of them established a proud record by achieving the highest percentage recorded since the intro- duction of the "M" tests in the district. He was Sydney William Moore of Moose Factory.--Timmins Press. See ge TREAT FOR SOLDIERS Officers and other ranks stationed at Fort Chippewa Barracks had an abun- dance of fresh green peas served with their meals today due to the generosity of George Kemp, Sundridge florist, who supplied the training centre with suffi- cient to provide entire camp strength with one, and probably two good feeds of the popular vegetables. The peas were picked by a detach- ment of soldiers who were transported MORE purchase them. CATEGORY "A" 3 More Flocks per Township Required Bruce Carleton Dufferin Durham Grey.

More wool must be produced at home and it's up to Ontario farmers to help produce it. The Ontario Department of Agriculture is working to effect an increase of 25% in this province. To do this, all present flocks must be kept, and in addition, 110,000 ewe lambs from the 1942 crop must be kept on the farm. If every present flock owner kept three ewes from this crop, most of the increase would be obtained. But since many sheep owners cannot accommodate any more animals, the Department is asking Ontario farmers to establish 1,000 new flocks which will absorb all surplus ewe lambs.
