The baby's hospital bound par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Nish- ino, of Clarkson, were pinned in the rear seat of a car driven by Joseph Duff when the vehicle hit a deer, went out of control, and crashed into a tree before turn- ing over. Miraculously unhurt, Duff was able to crawl out of the wreckage and raced to summon window and wormed clear, only to have his wife call out that the baby had arrived. Constable Bd, Heath, patrolling nearby, arrived in time to help the frantic father crawl back in- to the car and wrap the infant in an overcoat. When further help did not arrive immediately, Nish- ino and the officer pried off a rear door, and lifted mother and child into the police cruiser. Dr. Campbell MacArthur, sum- moned by Duff, was waiting at Thursday, June 21, 195 ST.

"We are all lucky to be alive, declared Nishino, who, like Duff, emerged without a scratch. FIRST WESTERN CRUDE VESSEL TIES UP AT B-A REFINERY Announcing the first shipment of Western Canadian crude oil to its Clarkson refinery last Friday, The British American Oil Com- pany also revealed plans for the construction of a $4,500,000 tank- r to augment its Great Lakes fleet. The first Canadian crude oil to be transported as far east as Lake Ontario, the 25000 barrels were piped from the Leduc field in Alberta to Superior, Wiscon- sin, and were loaded aboard the British American motor vessel Blmbranch June 11. To reach Clarkson, the crude travelled 1,050 miles by pipe line and 1,023 miles by tanker. It was the init- ial shipment of 500,000 barrels of Leduc crude scheduled to be dis- charged at British American's refinery here this summer, after exhaustive company laboratory tests established the adaptability of Leduc crude to the manufac ture of high grade gasoline and motor oils. Alberta's crude, now reaching Toronto, has expanded to its most distant market. Previously, the company sup- plied its Clarkson plant with U.S. crude ofl shipped directly from Toledo, Ohio. The installation of pipe line facilities between Al- berta and the Great Lakes has made it possible for the com- pany to supplement requirements at this plant with domestic pro- duction. The company's new tanker will be used on the Superior-Clarkson run. To be bullt in an eastern Canadian shipyard, the tanker will have a top speed of 15 knots and will be capable of transport- ing 115,000 barrels of crude oil. The ship, expected to be complet: ed in the fall of 1952, will make approximately 29 deliveries each year. COUNTY COMMENTARY NELSON RESIDENTS PETITION FOR FINANCE INVESTIGATION proceeded with perfect smooth- ness. Afternoon tea and supper w well patronized, and there was a brisk demand for pop and hot do; Charlie Flippance's youthful gymnasts fascinated the crowd in afternoon and evening performances of "Little Olympia," and a clever professional music- ian produced rabbits from a hat and performed other mystifying feats to the astonishment and de- light of young and old. Highlight of the evening was the lucky draw, made by Mrs. F. C. Jackson. Winner of the chest of silver was Mayor J. R. Black. The mystery prize donated by the T. Baton Co. was won by Mrs. Douglas, First Street, but as she was not present the nature of the prize was not revealed. LINBROOK KIDS ENJOY BIG FIELD DAY Lack of condition was chiefly responsible for the failure of the fathers to battle a father-son baseball game to a final outcome at the Field Day held Saturday by the Linbrook Home and School association. With plenty of energy left to .finish the in- nings, the boys were declared winners by an exhausted contin- gent of fathers, who took turns on the field in order to even play more than the opening frames.

Forming up at the Central school grounds, the great assem- bly of boys and girls, looking trim and smart in their khaki and blue uniforms, paraded along Colborne Street and up to Wal- lace Park, where the service was held. Taking the salute at a base in front of the post office was Hon. Ray Lawson, lieutenant- governor of Ontario. The parade was headed by Oakville Citizens' Band and the Burlington Boys' and Girls' Band. At the park, where a huge crowd of spectators gathered, the program opened with the playing of the national anthem, followed by the call to worship by Mrs. E. C. Reed, Guide Captain. The sing- ing of the hymn "O God our Help in Ages Past" was followed by a Scripture reading by Patrol Lead- er Bob McDowell. Re-affirma- tions of promises were given by the following: Angela Herbert, Brownies; Ann Sawbridge, Guid- es; Judy Bayly, Rangers; Ralph Kertcher, « Cubs; Ed. Snowball, Scouts. The speaker of the afternoon, Assistantl District Commissioner James Wright, of Hamilton, was introduced by C. H. Windeler, president of Oakville Boy Scouts Association. Taking as his theme the Scout Law, Mr. Wright ex- horted his youthful hearers to live their daily lives in accordance with that law. "We as Scouts should let our light shine in the acts of every day," he declared. He referred to the splendid ex- ample set by the late General Sir Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the Scout. movement. The training of the Scouts and Gui- des provided a wholesome influ- ence in the lives of thousands of boys and gi i promoted good citizenship, Mr. Wright de- clared. The address was followed by the singing of "Onward, Christian Soldiers{" @and the Dbenedjction, pronounced by E. Dean Wilkes, District Scouter, after which a selection was played by the Bur- lington band. On the reviewing stand with the lieutenant-governor were Mrs. W. J. Deadman, Aldershot, commissioner; Col.
