Shep is e@ German Shepherd who became an unwilling movie star during a heart operation to save her life. The dog, now two years old, Was born a "blue baby', a condi- tion caused by a constriction in the main artery leading to the heart, Dr. T. H. Reid of'the Reid Veterinary Hospital discovered it while treating a broken paw. He gave Shep six or seven months to live. The dog's owners, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Williams and their daughter Frances of Willoughby Township, said they could not afford an oper- ation and Dr. Reid arranged for it to be performed free in the inter- est of science. Shep was taken to the Guelph Veterinary College where Dr. Ha- yold Read performed the opera- tion. A record of the surgery was taken on film and will be made available to other doctors and will be shown on television. College officials said Shep is the only dog in Canada to live through PLL such an operation and she is now normal. The dog was at the college for three months. "She was thin and hardly look- ed strong enough to stand," said Mrs. Williams, "but she knew us straight away." Shep likes to romp around the family farm but her fear of doc- tors sends her slinking away when anyone arrives carrying s small case. In fact, her illness made so afraid of men who might take her away again that she keeps a sharp eye open for men strangers and disappears when any come in sight. WINDSOR Colville's wife gave signet fing. That was in Scotland where he lived at the time. During the Se- cond World War, when he was in the Royal Navy, he lost the ring. Mr. Colville emigrated here about five years ago from Scotland. His father-in-law, who lives in Troon, Scotland, was digging in his garden several weeks ago when he found the ring.

Women can handle the job just as well as men, they work well and never cause trouble, the men say. One notable example is a woman who once served as a captain at sea and now is an instructor at the Soviet nautical school. Another is captain of a whaling ship. "Our women spend their spare hours at sea' studying to be law- yers, doctors, teachers, engineers," said Nicolai Koblakov, chief of- ficer of the Emilian Pugachev. Luba Bustrova, 21, is an exam- ple. She isa stewardess aboard the ship and in her spare time studies engineering, hoping to get her papers in two or three years. Anastasia Klibkova, 52, is' the ship's cook. She proudly talked about a daughter who is a doctor, a son working as an engineer and her husband, a seagoing machi- ist with whom she has spent about four months out of each of her 25 years at sea. The Emilian Pugachev's doctor is also a woman. WASHINGTON -- A United States government scientist report- ed there's a chance the common cold can be checkmated soon pro- viding someone is willing to pick up a $1,000,000,000 research tab. Dr. Robert J. Huebner, a viro- logist of the National Institutes of Health, said the hope springs from findings that up to 60 per cent of acute respiratory ailment striking children are due to vir- uses already known to scientists. These can be reproduced, at least to some degree, in tissue culture. Tissue culture is the first step towards producing any kind of vaccine. Huebner made the statement to reporters at the annual Academy of Pediatrics. ; LONDON -- "It won't buy me no more frijoles,' said the taxi driver in Mexico City. But from London to Hong Kong to South America, men and wo- men of the non-Communist world were shaken by Russia's success- ful launching of history's first man in space--shaken by exhilaration or fear, disappointment or doubt, hope or despair. Most viewed the Soviet achieve- ment as a tremendous victory over the United States. To Giovani Ba- tista Cardinal Montini, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Milan, -So- viet man's conquest of space meant 'the stature of man is growing . . the contemplation of the uni- verse is growing . . . the hopes of the world are growing." Walter Huber, a Viennese print- er, sounded a theme heard over and over again in the Western world -- "'It's thrilling news to me, but a big disappointment that the Communists are there first and so far ahead of the West." MOSCOW -- British consumer goods such as shoes and women's dresses find a ready sale in the Soviet Union despite a recent com- plaint that some British manufac- turers were sending '"'shoddy arti- cles. Consumer goods from Britain and other countries have been arriv- ing in Russia in ever-increasing quantities since the Soviet trading organizations began to relax their former emphasis on imports of heavy machinery only. In Moscow at any rate, it seems almost a point of honor among young people to.own a pair of shoes and a dress with a foreign trade- mark. Styling and design of these are often far in advance of the produced product, and buyers scramble at the counters for the privilege of paying high prices for foreign goods. The complaint was aired in the trade newspaper Economic Ga- zette which chided some British manufacturers for compromising Britain's reputation for high - qua- lity goods. It complained specifi- cally of poor-quality shoes and bad- ly finished women's knitted dress- es. 2 The Soviet Union had bought about 65,000 knitted women's dress- es from Britain. Of this number, it was claimed, 933 dresses had to be returned because of defect- ive zip fasteners, faulty dyes, grease spots and other defects. Letter to the Editor April 24, 1961 The Editor, New Liskeard Speaker, Haileyburian. Dear Sir: When I read the unwarranted at- tack by Arnold Peters, my first re- action was to sue Peters, the news- paper reporter who released the reports to the C.C.F. 'executive knowing they were untrue, and the bold editor of the New Liskeard Speaker and the Haileyburian, who cast discretion aside when he saw a chance to knife Cooke of Hailey- bury in the back once more. After thinking is over I feel nothing but compassion for the scared, insecure farm boy who ap- parently will stop at nothing to se- cure his third term and a life pen- sion of three thousand dollars per annum. I do not blame him as I do not know where else he could earn this amount.* In the case of the reporter I for- give him also, but less freely as he is educated and should know bet- ter than to fabricate news and re- lease it for political reasons to Peters and also Murdo Martin, who dispensed it over C.F.C.L. TV as gospel truth last Saturday night. This is the same reporter who call- ed me to the town pump house, produced a huge British Columbia salmon and insisted unsuccessfully that I help fake a news picture by lifting it out of the town water sup- ply. This is the same reporter who transported a team of horses from New Liskeard to Haileybury by truck, nad tnem unloaded at the fire hall and wished to have them hitched to the fire truck, until I ordered him removed from the building and forbade any picture taking on town property. He may eventually learn to report news and not manufacture it to his own specifications. In closing I will add that the Haileybury Council did not meet or have any communication with Allister Groshart, national organiz- er for the Conservative Party. One councillor and myself were in the group who welcomed him to Hail- eybury. Over morning coffee he made it very plain that he has no political position or power, and that he is an organizer, making no advances or promises to anyone, nor did he. I was included in the get-to-gether as Mayor of Hailey- bury not because of any political convictions. I am not related to Foster Rice nor are any members of the council as stated by Peters.. To you Mr. Editor of the New Liskeard. Speaker and. of the Haileyburian I give a word of ad- vice, "'Before you again print slan- derous statements and untruths, check with your lawyers. The next person may not be so good natur- ed."" Yours truly Arthur H. Cooke, Mayor Town of Haileybury. Haileybury Curling Club Lounge SATURDAY, APRIL 29 8:15 p.m. : GO!
