OSHAWA IS CARRIER TERMINAL ON VOICE HIGHWAY The carrier system -- one of the wonders of telephony--is a method of providing one or more voice paths over a pair of wires already employed in a telephone conersation.- With the type of carrier used at Oshawa, when one conversation is taking place at voice frequency, as many as three other conversations may be carried on Jat higher frequencies oer the same pair of wires. In much the same way a radio station broadcasting at 600 kilocycles does not interrupt pr inter- fere with programmes from another station broadcasting at, say 730 kilo- cycles, - From Oshawa, a strategic point on the Trans-Canada Telephone System, 11 carrier systems run north and west, two of them as far as Winnipeg, and 16 run east to DeBeaujeu, near the Untario-Quebee boundary. In addi- tion to the carrier circuit there are ubout 256 other voice circuits running north and west and over 55 running cast.--Telephone News, LEGLESS HERO WHO LEADS CANADIAN FLIERS A romance of British industry lies behind the award of the D.S.0. to the tamous legless pilot of the R.A.F., Acting Squadron-Leader D.R.S.
