Witnessed by the student-body, and the teaching staff, Previews of Pro- gress graphically presented many of 'the most recent developments in sci- entific research. Purpose of the presentation was to '| portray the story of progress through engineering and science. The assem- bly was impressed with the interpre- tations of scientific knowledge which allowed the ordinary--person to fully understand some of the wonders of science. Tricks of magic could not compare with the actual science demonstra- tions that were performed on the stage." The "bottle with a temper" was demonstrated to the amazement of the audience... A very ordinary looking glass bottle was used to drive a spike through a two-inch board, and then the same. bottle was completely shattered by dropping a pea-sized pebble into the bottle. The scientific principle of this fantastic bottle was explained in detail by the demonstra- tor. The world's fastest method of pro- ducing "synthetic rubber also, ex- cited a great deal of interest. A ca- talyst was added to a basic ingredient and the mixture was then shaken up in a pop bottle. When uncapped, the mixture shot forth in a. white, foamy "gob of rubber. i egg on a cold stove--was demonstra- ted, and explained. A demonstration that opened with proved that there is energy in matter. The lecturer separated a drop of wa- ter into hydrogen and oxygen by elec- trolysis. He collected the gases in a test-tube and exploded them over a ¢andle flame. To show that the energy in matter can be converted to useful purposes, the demonstrator used a fire-tube. feet long and three inches in diameter, with a stopper iat each end. He placed a few drops of fuel in the tube and noted that the proportion of air to liquid was about 9000 to 1. This is about the same proportion of air to gasoline in a car's cylinders. He mixed fuel and air, then placed a lighted match at one end. . There was a "Whoosh"--and a blue flame tra- elled down the tube and blew out the end stopper. "That burning," the lecturer ex- plained, "is very similar to that which takes place -in your automobile en- gine, at the rate of one hundred fir- ings per second, if you are driving at 40 miles per hour." The theory behind jet propulsion was demonstrated, and, much to the surprise of many, it was explained that jet propulsion 'has been a scien- tific fact for over 2,000 years. W.MS. The Afternoon Auxiliary of the Port Perry United Church held its Thanks- giving meeting at the home of Mrs. W. Walker, on Wednesday, October 14th, with 21 members and 3 visitors pre- sent, Mrs. W.

Her subject--"Praise and Thanksgiving." Mrs. Moffatt introduced 'the new Study Book "Where the Sun." Meeting closed with the Mizpah Benediction. Tea was served by hostess and a social time enjoyed. ° Civil Defence The 'local Ground Observer Corp staged a full dress reheasal under the leadership of Bill Baker in conjunction with other units of the district, when all planes in this area were reported to G.H.Q.

' Name Coach for Junior "B" Team Manager Wren Blair of the, Port Perry "Flyers' Junior B team inform- ed the Star by phone to-day that he has signed Jack Tisdall for the coach- ig job of this team. Jack Tisdall came to Oshawa in the late thirties to play Junior "A" hockey. After grad- uating from this class 'he enjoyed many years of Senior A hockey, with the Oshawa G-Men. Then for four years he played with People's Credit ronto. "Last year he returned to Osh- awa Truckmen, If experience is a factor in coaching then the Port team will have an jdeal coach, Following this first announcement manager Wren went on to say that there are nine players signed already for this team, three of whom are local boys. As yet he has not re- leased the names, but has assured us that they are of the highest calibre, The team is continuing their prac- tices in the Bowmanville arena but will start schedule practices in 'the local arena as soon as ice is available. Manager Blair expects that the team will probably be entered in a league with Lindsay, Peterboro, Belleville and with a possibility of Kingston, $2.00 per year. Single Cony 5c. A second occasion of great import- ance to parents and pupils of Port overJim Wilson asked the newly weds , Jewellers in the T.H.L. League in To- | Perry was the re-opening of the great- ly improved high school. (A new Public School was opened in September.) Friday evening, October 16 saw the the Official Re-opening Dedication and general open house when parents and others crowded the building to see for themselves the marvellous changes they had heard about from students and workmen. Certainly the results are worthy of the effort on the part of the School Board, Principal, Archi- tect, Staff and Workmen, who co- operated during the summer and fall to provide a completely renovated and better planned school quite capable of mecting the needs of a growing pop- ulation, * Mr. J, L. Crane, principal of the High School very capably handled the Job of Master of Ceremonies. With the members of the Central Ontario County Area High School Board on the platform, the .members of the teaching staff were introduced to the public, and Mr. Stewart MacFarlane, Vice-Chairman of the Board, spoke a few words of praise to those respons- ible for the finished school, especially mentioning Mr. Crane, who devoted his entire summer to the project, and Mr, R. Peel, local member of the Board and Mr. Ted Griffin, architect, who was in chayge of the works. Pupils of the school under the- direction of their music instructor, Mr. Brooks, rendered several numbers, - The chief speaker of the evening was Mr. C. R. McClellan, BSA, a former principal and now an inspector of the Department of Education who officially opened the school. In ad- dresssing the audience he expressed his pleasure and declared it an honour to have the opportunity to take part in this important event.. The present school board, he said, had succeeded in securing considerable additional ac- commodation at a cost of around $26,000; the Department reckoned that classroom -construction- comes around $25,000 per classroom so we can feel that we have indeed gotten. "our money's worth." Mr, McClellan con- gratulated the Board, Principal and all concerned upon their achievement. The speaker also dwelt upon the his- tory of the school which was estab- lished in 1871. In 1873 an enrolment of 46 pupils was recorded, and today, 80 years later, it is 225 pupils. Some enrolment figures are as follows: 1873, 46; 1880, 127; 1905, 90; 1910, 64; 1915, 85. The school serves a wider area (the school bus making this practical) and wider interests as to-day's curriculum embraces a wide variety of subjects, assisting the teacher in "the depelop- | ment of the entire personality of the child by activities of many kinds in accordance with his tastes and abili- ties." Mr. McClellan spoke of the high cost of education and of the high returns for this investment, comparing Canada with other countries, and stating that never before have such wonderful pos- sibilities opened out before the stu- dent as "are waiting for him today. Upon the close of his remarks he declared the addition open to the pub- lie. L0.D.E Present Flag to Public School gue An' eventful and colorful ceremony took place at the Public School earlitr this 'month. Thirty or forty pupils gathered. with. members of Scugog Chapter 1.0.D.E. and Mr. Swabey, for the flag raising of the. Union Jack presented by the Chapter: Mr, Corn- | ish, principal, first took the gathering in to the auditorium where the flag was draped on the wall and explained the function of a flag in school life. He expressed his gratitude for the presentation, and the pupils' pride in the possession of such 'a beautiful symbol of their British heritage, Then the company proceeded to the school yard, where the actual raising of the flag by Mrs. Arthur Brock, Regent, took place, Pictures were taken by the Star photographer as a lasting reward of the ogeasion, IC.

TURNER Following-a year and a half of fail- ing health, Robert C. Turner passed away at Port Perry Community Hos- pital, on Wednesday, Oct: 3:1953. He was the youngést of the ten children of the late Charles Turner and Jane Dodds. He was born on a- farm near Prince Albert, Ontario. Following his father's death he farm- ed the homestead for several years. In 1912 he went to Edmonton, Alta, where he was employed by the street railway as motorman and conductor. After seven years there hé and his brother John bought a farm of one and one quarter sections near Innisfree, Alta. For 23 years he operated this farm and made it his home, In 1940 John Tuainer passed away and, after selling the farm, Robert returned to Port Perry where he lived among friends of his youth. He greatly en- joyed a visit with friends and. was a very hospitable person. World affairs interested him keenly and he was a fine conversationalist. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. R. H. Wylie and was from A. L. McDermott's Funeraal Chapel. He was laid to rest in Pine Grove Cemetery. The pallpearers were Messrs. S. Robertson, 'G. Davey, F. Crawford, L. Thompson, H, Kerry, and G. Kilpatrick. Left to. mourn his passing are four sisters: Mrs. Mi Dunn, of Edmonton (Mary); Miss "Fanny Turner, Port Perry; Mrs. A. Snelgrove, of Prince Albert, Ont.
