' "'Yes,'"' said the magistrate, "'go on." "T plunged downwards, sir," ex- plained the policeman, 'but I managed to grasp a piece of the roof framework." "And then?' Jones pointed to Harry Crouch} in the dock. | "That one," said the constable, | "stopped, came back to where Ij was dangling and told me, 'all right, guy, I can't leave you to fall through. I give up.' "He caught hold of me even though the glass about us was} breaking. He nearly went through} the roof too." | Jones -- who weighs more than| 200 pounds said Crouch hung orn' to him until other constables arrived. Police had collared the other two men. "There was nothing I could do but arrest him," said the police- man. : "And there's nothing I can do but send them all for trial," said the magistrate. He intimated that Crouch's con- sideration for the policeman would be taken into consideration when the three go on trial charged with breaking and entering. DUBLIN -- An airliner missed a runway in a blinding rain, touch- ed down in a field and bumped to a halt recently on the main WDublin-Belfast road without injury to 73 persons aboard. Some of the 69 passengers and four crew were treated for shock af Dublin airport afterward. The chartered four-engined DC-4 was carrying pilgrims from the Roman Catholic shrine at Lourdes, France. TORONTO--Mr. and Mrs. Thom- as Ferguson of nearby George- town plan to escape the possibility of a nuclear holocaust hitting this densely populated area by emigrat- inp with their two young sons to New Zealand. Mr. Ferguson, a building con- tractor, is to sail from Vancouver in February with his wife and sons, Ian, 5, and Jamies, 3. "We decided that no one would waste an atomic bomb on New Zealand,' Mrs. Ferguson says. "And besides, it has a lovely clim- ate." SUDBURY -- Provincial police said recently a truck used to trans- port $20,000 worth of cigarettes stolen from the Motorways lot on Highway 69 south of here has been found abandoned on a road near Barrie. It was empty when located and police think the loot had been transferred to another vehicle. Insp. Lewis Needham of the pro- vincial police criminal investiga- tion branch, who was sent to Sud- bury to investigate the robbery, was at Parry Sound working on the case when the vehicle was found. He immediately left for Barrie. Police feel the robbery was not an isolated case but ties in with a gang who have made similar hauls in various other parts of Ontario during the last few weeks. FORT WILLIAM -- Discharge of grain dust into the air by grain elevators has Fort William coun- cil in a quandry -- on the one hand petitions from citizens de- manding the nuisance be stopped, and on the other, assurances from elevator officials that everything possible has already been done. A board of works meeting agreed residents had ample cause to com- plain. Ald. Booth said that elevators had spent enormous sums on col- lection and screening equipment without being able to find a final solution. It was finally decided to have the 'city engineer interview ele- vator officials, collect all available information, and report to council on his findings. ARNTFIELD -- A helicopter of the Atlantic Helicopter Limited, Quebec, fell 180 feet and the two passengers emerged miraculously unhurt after the gruelling exper- ience. ! ; The machine, in the employ of Hydro-Quebec, was piloted by Christian Brignaud and the pas- senger, Bertrand Beaudoin, is an engineer of the Hydro. The accident occurred while the machine was flying over a trans- mission line. The small propeller at the rear of the machine, which acts as stabilizer, fell off and the helicopter was turning in mid-air out of control. When it fell to the ground it made several turns before com- Mllustrated booklet Orillia Haileybury, Ont.
