Engineer Foresees: Uranium Lamps : ap Ever- ing. uranium lamps may be an carly gift of nuclear research, Dr, Samuel. Hibben, light- ing 'engineer for the Westinghoiise Electrit Corporation, says that con- trolling the tremendous light factor of the atomic bomb may prove simpler than controlling the ex- plosive force. "To-day's mercury vapor and ffuorescent 'famps, which operate on the general principle of -atontic disturbance, contain the hint as to How these new light sources can be' of highest potency," he says, "These lamps of today are really 'not-sordistant cousins' of the A- bomb." a A speaker at a Harvard Astron "omical Observatory foruti recently declared that some day we will have lamps that: will cost nothifig 'to operate, can be left 'burning afl the time, and whose initial cost will be the only expense, He does 'not wish to be quoted, but is a physicist of highest rank, took part in 'the Bikini tests; and is 'generally con- sidered among colleagies as a "conservative."

If the poet who wrote that line about Winter lingering in the lap of Spring had been doing his poetizing | in modern times, -it's a cinch he 'have made "Winter" read "Hockey'. And in the not too-far distant era when hockey finally de- velops into a 12-months-per-annum affair--afid isn't that something to look forward to? -- they certainly ought to set aside a small cut of extra gate receipts for the the genius who invented artificial ice. « * . However, arrives we shall have to try to be content with the short rations we -get,-and-be-properly--thankful that months of and cffort -- they establish that Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs are the best teams in hockey. Or perhaps it would be more ncarly correct to say in the N.H.L. The fact that this was fairly apparent before the season was three weeks old has nothing to do with the case--our hockey moguls are not the kind to take anything for granted. But, spcak- ing seriously, isn't it-nearly time for the National League people to wake up to the facts of life, and admit that there is considerable hockey played outsiae the boun- daries of their six-teami group. In other words, isn't it high time we had playoffs that really meant some- --after seven or cight strenuous toil thing -- playoffs worthy of being compared to baseball's World Series? i * L JE Wherever you find a bunch of hockey fans gathered, if you stick around long enough you're almost certain to hear arguments about why present-day = hockey lacks much of the: kick and thrill that were dished out even a few years ago. That such is the case is ad- mitted by even the game's most fervent praise-ageuats. Sonfe' blame it on the war, forgetting that the war has been over--or so it is rumored -- for Quite. some time, Others put the finger on the intro- duction of the red line -- on the linesmen--or what have you. * * - There is some reason for most of these theories; but in o.ar opinion it 'remained' for our friend Harold "Cotton to dig closer to the real roots of the trouble than anyone we have had 'the pleasure of hear- ing; and the"fact (that the esteem 'Baldy'. in all' 'probubility (didnt realize. the full implications of wha ---- veut till that glorious day ("A Sixbit Critic") .

But in the days when Baldy Cotton and his playmates were per- forming, puckchasers hadn't reach- ed such heights of cool logic. In their innocent eyes a hockey game was a battle to be fought, rather than an evening of entertainment put on for the benefit of the paying guests. The score-board, not the applausemeter, was wit they kept an eye on; and the only time they were anxious to get rid of the puck was when they could park it back of the enemy goal-tender. Maybe that's why plenty of fans, who find it difficult to recall which team won .a game played last month, can still remémber every detail of struggles Solid took place ten years ago. ) * * .

After the first World War great numbers of Italians were cuncour- aged to go back to Italy. Before they left they sold their Canadian possessions acquired from years of toil, and turned them into lalian money of doubtful value. experience has been goes without saying, The Northern Miner. Most of them originally came out to this country to help build the trans-continental railways, but when those jobs ended they drifted into other industries with many set- comnients "tling in the mining camps, particu- larly 'those of Northern Ontario. Some resisted the pressure move- ment back to Italy, but in a few months the Italian. names almost disappeared from mine payrolls. renee ges gegen Now it is Jugoslavs who are being urged to return to their old country and, as "workers of "that nationality are among the biggest of the foreign «groups employed in the metal mines of this country, "many fine miners are likely to be lost at a time when all efforts are beng directed toward building up Canadian mine working forces, *- * * They homes and furniture, their stocks and their bonds. .

Australia lost millions of sheep in the droughts of the past three years . In South the Lethbridge Alberta, according to Herald, the sheep \ population has-been dwindling due to poor prices for wool and the «difficulty in securing the kind of labor which will handle sheep effi- ciently. We believe this spring's lamb crop will be down 23 per cent from pre-war years. . 3 What's the answer? Canada pro- duces only one-fifth of her wool needs in this north temperate zone, Our appetite for mutton and lamb' has never been developed; we turn more to beef and pork. We have large arcas in the Palliser Triangle where sheep are the best grazing bet under ordinary circumstances, "but Montana, even with her reduc cdr sheep population, still: raises as many as the whole of Canada. "What's the answer? We don't" know. But we do know that the sheep business in Canada is sick.
