Testing for TB This simple tuberculin test--a tiny injection made just beneath the surface of the skin--will tell whether these children have been infected by the germs that cause tuberculosis. Tuberculin tests are among the many TB-fighting activities that Christmas Seal con- tributions help support. [See by THE PAPERS | mI TORONTO -- Canadians suffer from the worst disease in the world, spectatoritis, Joseph Con- nell, general secretary of the Kits chener-Waterloo branch of the YMCA, said recently. He said at the annual York County warden's banquet that Can- adians should participate more in recreational activities. A mother had told him recently her son needed more exercise. He quoted her as saying: "But we live nine blocks from the Y so do you think you could arrange a ear pool to pick him up?"' NEW YORK -- Five detectives living as undercover beatniks turn- ed square and put the finger on 13 habitues of Greenwich Village. 'The charge: Narcotics violations. 'After a month of the Bohemian life -- complete with beards, be- rets and jazzy poetry sessions -- the detectives struck as part of a city-wide crackdown during the week-end. Ninety-five persons were arrest- ed in raids that reached into Brooklyn and Harlem as well as The Village. Taspector Edward F. Carey put the value of confiscated heroin, co- caine and marijuana at $1,000,000 in the illegal market. The masquerading detectives Spent virtually all of their waking hours in beatnik haunts to gain the confidence of suspected addicts and pushers. The undercoyer five cultivated beards, slouched about coffee hous- es in attitudes of despair, shuffled off to dances, jazz sessions and poetry readings. Detective George Bermudez wrote off-beat poems and had one recited in a coffee shop. At the police station, the real beatniks continued living it up. One turned over a waste can and began beating out bongo rhythms, while the others shuffled, chanted, and stamped their feet. Among those arrested was Bill Bailey, 46, identified by police as the brother of singer Pearl Bailey, VANCOUVER -- Pastel colors are even moving into Canadian waterfront buildings. The annual meeting of the Cana- Gian Port and Harbor Association here was told that bright, attrac- tive colors can mean greater safe- ty and improved work in harbors. E. J. Alton, representing the Na- tional Harbors Board at the meet- ing, told delegates that work ef- ficiency has increased considerably in Montreal harbor, where interior walls' of warehouses have been painted aluminum instead of black or dark shades, The new Centennial Pier in Van- couver has elevators painted in coral and "sea-mist green", and the Hooker Chemical Company is using bright, constrasting colors on its wharfs. NEW YORK -- Golfers, how about a 14-karat gold putter -- price $1,475? Tiffany and Company, New York jewelers, advertised the putters, but anyone who craves one is out of luck for the time being. They are all gone. The ad carried this post- script: "This advertisement appears for the record only as the entire stock has been sold." Tiffany said it is ordering more. The company declined to say how many have been sold. The putters were advertised as "presentation" items but a com- pany spokesman said some devil- may-care golfers reported they performed well on the greens. OWEN SOUND -- Chief, a collie dog, who walked the night beat for 15 years, died recently of old age. Police Chief M. C. Moore said Chief "prevented more crime in this city than any two policemen."' The shaggy animal usually lay sprawled on the city hall steps or in the corridor leading to the police office during the day. He spent the night accompanying constables on foot patrols. Chief Moore said the presence of Chief was especially helpful in the training of recruits. "Chief was a handy friend to have walking down a dark alley." Nobody knows where Chief came from. He walked into the police de- partment 15 years. ago as a pup and defeated all attempts to get rid of him. A few years later he fought off another dog which tried the same thing. BRANTFORD -- Three Brant- ford hunters told of hiring a bull- dozer to build eight miles of road through the bush to bring their 1,800 pounds of moose to Matache- wan. John Fawcett, Orley Ramey and Floyd Papple shot two moose, 950 and 875 pounds and paid a bull- dozer operator $5 an hour to make Miner Overcome By Carbon Monoxide A New Liskeard man has re- covered from a gassing received while working underground at the Langis Silver mine just east of New Liskeard. Doug McNeil was working on the staging over the mucking machine when he became dizzy, and was taken out to the station by two other workers. He was brought to the surface and given-oxygen. A company spokesman said the gas was prob- ably carbon monoxide. "Tf the muck isn't soaked well enough with water, gases can be stirred up by 'the machine as it works on the pile," he said. Haileybury Car Mixes With Grader A car driven by John H. Arm- strong of Haileybury was bacly damaged last Wednesday when it skidded in loose gravel and smash- ed into a passing Standard Paving grader working south of Earlton. No one was hurt, but the car received about $1,000 worth of damage. OPP Constable Glenn Wilberforce of the Haileybury de- tachment investigated. a road for them to bring the car- casses out intact. A bridge had to be built over a river, and a causeway over a creek. NEW BEDFORD, Mass. -- Po- lice Sgt. Rene Boutin and patrol- man Gilbert Cabral got off to a bad start recently on the desk at New Bedford police headquarters. First thing, the telephone rang and a New Bedford north end man reported the theft of his 1953 Mer- cury two-tone sedan. Then the phone rang again and a New Bedford north end man re- ported the itheft of his 1953 Mer- cury two-tone sedan. The phone rang again and a New Bedford north end man re- ported the theft of, yes, his 1953 Mercury two-tone sedan. The policemen rechecked just to be sure they weren't getting a re- port on the same theft from dif- ferent people. They found the re- ports were OK. The three same- type cars belonged to Arthur Cais- sey, Joseph Barboza and Anthony Mulroy. Boultin and Cabral said that af- ter a few more headache pills they'd be all right. OTTAWA -- The Victorian Order of Nurses is beginning to spend more time with newborn babies and maternity cases and less with old people and chronic cases. Christine Livingstone, retiring VON director - in - chief, reported this reversal of a previous trend to senior VON officials meeting here. Miss Livingstone said part of the reason is a growing use of oral medications. But the new trend was just be- ginning. "Long term chronic ill- ness still accounts for a major part of our nursing services." North America is in danger of becoming "an efficient ant col- ony," Dr. Alexander Laidlaw, na- tional secretary of the Co-operative Union of Canada, said in an ad- dress. He warned Canadians to guard against becoming a country of "dull conformists". He also said the Canadian home is becoming a "sterile place, with all vital activities removed from it, including recreation. He warned of an "ever-present menace of Mediocrity" in Cana- dian society. '"'We are victims of a strange attitude in Canada that is satisfied with some vague aver- age performance far below what we could be doing." YOKOHAMA, Japan -- Here's one way to discourage 'drunks. Po- lice at one station here make drunks listen the next morning to a tape recording of the babling they. do after they are hauled in. Worse than a fine, some say.
