Foresee Loss in U.S. Tourist Trade,
More B.C. Shoppers Buying in U.S.
VANCOUVER (CP)—British Columbia retail merch-
ints Friday protested any planned increase in sales tax to
finance hospital insurance.
i'■■'. In a letter to Premier Bennett, the B.C. section at
the Retail Merchants' Association said 87 per cent of its
membership was opposed to a
higher sales tax.
"Members of the association are
opposed to the socialization of hospitals in B.C." said the lfetter, "and
We.urged, upon your government
that BCHIS continue to seek its
revenue from premium payments."
There have been reports from
Victoria that .the hospital premiums might be dropped and the
lales tax increased from three to
five per cent'to finance the scheme.
The merchants said an increased
tax' would discourage American
tourists from* buying in B.C. and
would "encourage British Columbians to increase their purchases in
he U.S."
"Experience during and- after the
Mir. with heavy luxury taxes on
lertoin goods," added the letter,
'Clearly demonstrated to retailers
the reduction of trade which results
from the application of direct
taxes." It added:
"The merchants feel that the present method of premium paying
places the burden of paying for
hospital care where It belongs and
that as a result it js a deterrent to
people who might otherwise use
their hospital' service indiscriminately with attendent higher operating and capital costs."
The merchants, in the letter signed by Grant Deachman, manager of
the association, further said:
"The conversion from premium
payment to payment of hospital services by taxation, is in effect, the
socializing of hospitals.in B.C. Just
as they were socialized in England."
The letter pointed to "the abuses
of the system which sprung up in
England."

Black Market
Thrives in Soviet
By RICHARD  R.  KASISCHKE
MOSCOW (AP) — Soviet newspapers-complain that speculators
and black marketeers are making
a lush and easy living off the
shortage-plagued people while Premier George Malenkov's government is attempting to increase the
supply of consumer goods.
Black marketeers do a big business in such cities as Moscow, Kiev,
and Riga; and even reach into the
small towns. But drives are under
way, newspapers say, against these
"leeches, parasites and monsters"
who would rather live on speculation than do honest work.
The press, scolift.police ior.being
too lenient with the black marketeers. It claims many of them have
been let off with warnings rather
than being handed over to the
courts for punishment •
The newspaper also scolded citizens who patronize the black marketeers saying "any person having
recourse tb the services of speculators is committing an act opposed
to the spirit of Soviet ethics, and
should be ostracized."

Reporter Saved
By Artificial Leg
VICTORIA (CP)—Brian Lough,
nan, 31-year-old reporter who lost
a leg during the Second World War
escaped serious injury here Friday
when his high-powered sports car
plunged over a 250-foot cliff. He
suffered minor abrasions when he
was 'thrown clear.
Loughnan's artificial leg was
found jammed in the wreckage of
his car, the straps broken. RCMP
who investigated said if the straps
had not broken or the leg had been
the driver's own, ,he would have
been killed.
VICTORIA (CP)—The British Columbia Power Commission and its chief engineer failed to take "reasonable
steps that would have prevented the disastrous slides at
the Whatshan power project, Mr. Justice J, V. Clyne said
in a report tabled in the legislature Friday.
The justice, appointed to Investigate the slides that pushed the
porject on the Lower Airrow Late
last'-AuOTBtcsaldt. ;. -f"-'iryft.
"The meihpers of the B.C. P6.WO-
Comraissioh and their chief engineer wer.e negligent in failing'to take
reasonable steps' to prevent the
danger of the landslide which they
knew or ought to have known
threatened the power plant and its
installations." .
Mr. Justice Clyne said he had
been Instructed to answer three
questions; what technical or engineering advice did the commission
receive in connection with the development, was such advice sound
arid was it followed, and did negligence or faulty judgment or any
person or persons contribute to the
disaster.
In the planning stage of the project, Mr. Justice Clyne said, th?'
power commission received advice
from H. G. Acres and Co., hydraulic
engineers of Niagara Falls, Onf. On
the main design and construction
stages, it depended on technical and
engineering advice of its own staff.
During the construction, Dr. Victor Dolmage, a geologist, gave advice "in respect to additional lining to tunnel with concrete."
The advice given was "sound and
was followed.
In his hard-hitting report, Mr.
Justice, Clyne said the commission
had warning of the possibility of
the slides—on Aug. 11 and 16—1_
years before damage unofficially
estimated at, $1,000,000 was done to
the $5,800,000 project.  •
VANDERVOORT CLEARED
He exonerated G. A. Vandervoort
chief operations engineer, and J. T.
Kirkpatrick, station superintendent.
There was no blame on Mr. Klrk-
patrfck because he kept "his superiors fully advised of the dangerous situation which existed."
Mr. Justice Clyne said the commission had repeated warnings
from Mr. Vandervoort "and the
peril could not have been stated
more plainly than in Mr. Vander-
voort's report of February, 1952, in
which he said: 'Hie possibility of
a major breakaway cannot however
be overlooked and this could lead
to severe consequences.'
"That is actually what occurred
a year and a half later."
VICTORIA (CP) - Provincial
Secretary Wesley Black forecast
Friday that in 20 years there would
be no such thing as the chronically
111 mental patierit.
Mr. Black wound up the throne
speech debate in the legislature with
a talk on the advances made ip
the field of mental health in British Columbia in the last tew
years. He had particular praise for
the Crease clinic which was opened
in January, 1951 and which has since
received praise from specialists
around the world.
The minister outlined new facilities to be constructed tor the mentally ill. These included a 300-bed
addition to Woodlands school for
mentally defective children, 300
beds for the Port Coquitlam home
for the aged, a day hospital and a
child guidance clinic, and a, 228-

OTTAWA (CP)—The Commons
heard a charge Friday that^ there
is i danger that new housing legislation proposed _y the government will set up a "giant new government bureaucracy'' under Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
After detailed consideration by a
committee the legislation came back
to the Commons Friday for clause-
by-clause study! Criticism was offered by the three opposition parties—PC, CCF and Social Credit
A lawyer, Donald Fleming (PC—
Egllnton) made the bureaucracy
charge and added that the government has "exaggerated" what the
legislation would accomplish. The
bill would not create a "new heaven
or new earth" for the prospective
home buyer and it was "cruel'1 to
Intensify their hopes.
Though the PC party intended to
co-operate in getting the bill
through tha  Commons, member*
must be warned they were legislating in the dark. Tha bill was in
essence a mere "shadow." The.real
meat was in the still-secret regulations which the government had declined to divulge to the Commons
branking committee.
Alistair Stewart (CCF—Winnipeg
North), a chartered accountant, said
the bill is a "rather shabby piece of
wool"' which the government had
drawn over the eyes of Canadians.
The government should' be "shot"
if it allows the interest rate to rise
to 5% per cent trom tVt per cent aa
haa been reported ln some quarters.
C. I. Johnton (SC—Bow River),

Young Substitute
LONDON (AP) — Klrsten Flagstad, top Wagnerian soprano, permitted Elisabeth Schwartzkopf's
soprano to substitute for hers on
two high "Cs" in a recent operatic
recording of "Tristan and Isolde."
This Is the first official admission
of what several American record
critics already had told their
readers.
"Miss Flagstad was not satisfied
with the playback of the two notes,"
the British recording firm, His Master's Voice, said. "She was very
happy to have her good friend,
Elizabeth Schwartzkopf, sing them
for her."
The dubbing occurs in the famous "Liebes Nacht" (Love's Night).

The work week reduction is effective JUne 1 along with a $5 a month
reduction In take-home pay. New
rate will be $225 a month:
Mr. Black said: "I would particularly like to refer the members to
the section dealing with the present industrial development within
the Kootenays and .while I know it
may not be -possible for the. members to do anything more than peruse this Issue at this" time I would
respectfully suggest when they do
have some leisure time they give
some study to the Kootenay area so
that they might better be able to
assess not only the great opportunities of the area but also some of its
beauties.".
Mr. Black said he would like to
compliment The Nelson News for
"this splendid edition."
The minister said how delighted
he is to hear of the proposed dam
site in the Mica Creek area.
He said, "I feel the carrying of
this project into fruition will pos
slbly he the key to the opening up
of the entire Kootenays for industrial development, for there, within
the Kootenays", lies untouched an
untold natural resources to be de
velpped for the benefit not only of
the people in the Kootenays but of
the people of the entire province."
POWER EXTENSION
Mr.' Black spoke of power, saying
"I mean to.keep pressing- the West
Kobterfay; PoW« *Stlijht'rdmpt^'ny',-
for thOxtensIdh of electrical power
into the Slocan area and areas of my
constituency.
Once more Mr. Black drew attention to the pressing need for £
bridge across the West Arm of Root-
enayLake.
Dealing with the need for road
improvements, Mr. Black said;
"Of extreme importance to my
constituency is the continuation of
the survey of the Creston-Salmo
cut-off, which was only partially
completed last year—and I sincerely
hope the minister of public works
has made an adequate appropriation
in his estimates ton the completion
of this survey. We are watching
with more than casual interest the
progress of this survey.
"We, the people of Nelton-Crei-
ton, are determined that the Creston-Salmo cut-off must be completed as a vital part of the Southern Transprovincial Highway tyt-
tem.
"I would urge the minister, that
once  the   surveys  are  complete
and   (ia   hat  an   opportunity to
assess hit position, both from an
engineering and financial point of
vtow, he will urge the government
to commence work on this vital
link as toon at possible.
"I hope, too, the minister of public
works has given serious consideration to the completion of the Wynn-
.del-Kuskanook road—and I'll, go so
far as to suggest that I personally
cannot' see any reason why the remaining section of that road cannot
be completed and hard-surfaced by
the time the snow flies again this
Fall.
"For many years the people Of
the Crestpn section of my constituency have been seriously concerned
over the condition of the Creston
Rykerts road—a piece of road some
six miles long from the United States
border. This road, is sadly In need
of improvement and I would urge
the  minister  of public  works to
give serious study to putting thl$
road In first-class condition—hard- ,
topped, of .course."
MORE FOR RIDINQ
Mr. Black said he's going to camp
on Public Works Minister Gaglardi's
doorstep until he, does more work
for Neison-Creston riding.
He went into minute detail about
the road needs of his district. He
mentioned the Salmo-Nelway section which he said "only needs 4.4 -
miles of completion to give access
for Americans into the. Salmo and .
Nelson districts." „■      ■ ■
Then Mr. Black asked the minister
of public works for Improvement
ot the Riondel road.
He said: "Industrial areas, within
my constituency are for the most
part the heart and soul of this particular area.
Riondel, rapidly becoming an industrial area, Is looking forward to
the day when it will rival the Sullivan Mines for production. A better
than adequate access to the main
highway cannot be too long delayed within this area." *       ;

The good people of that area are
already beginning to feel isolation
due to neglect of road problems.
They are becoming increasingly annoyed at the lack of what they con-
sider fair treatment and recognition
of their need for an outlet.
"I -want, too,' to reiterate- what
my friend, the hon. member for
aKslo-Slocan', pointed out — that is,
much-needed improvement and development of the road conditions
from Balfour to Kaslo through the
Queen's Bay area.
"I would also like to see improvements of the Blewelt road,
and an improvement of the road
into thd Slocan area."
Mr. Black then turned his attention to Attorney-General Bonner
and told him "the people of Salmo
are patiently waiting for your decision relative to the establishment
of a liquor store in their area. I
hope your affirmative answer will
be forthcoming soon."
The Minister of Agriculture came
next on Mr. Black's' list" and he
asked him to please consider an
agricultural college ' in Neison-
Creston.

And now to the minister of health,
and welfare: "The people of Nelson
are moving towards construction of
a new hospital. I sincerely hope that
when all the details at the local
level have been completed the
problem will find your sympathetic
ear."
.' As he wound up the section of hla
speech dealing with his own riding,
Mr. Black said: "When assessing the
great potential of this province, and
its development — keep your eyes
on the Kootenays. I look forwardrto
the day, not too far hence, when

"The human, element is responsible for 99 per cent of all accidents,"
stated Mr. Beaton, and backed up
his claim with particulars and a
film. "The best) safety; device there
is," he said, "is what we have above

Some Killers Gain,
While Others Falter  ;
While deaths from most causes
showed a steady decrease over the
years, four major killers appeared to.'
have gained strength. Heart diseases
killed 39,295 Canadians in 1951, as compared to 17,896 average in the years
1936-1940. Cancer and other, malignant
tumors killed 17,821 as compared to
12,283. Bronchitis killed 549 as compared to 327. Polio deaths have shown
a steady increase from 24 in 1945 to
311 In 1952-   '.
Canada rated 13th among nations jn
its infant mortality record, with 38
deaths per 1000 live births during'1951.
Sweden rated- first with only 21 per
1000. France's 195. record was the only
one listed as worse than Canada's with
51 deaths per-1000 live births.
Indicative of the need fpr greater
intensity of research and education tn
the matter of infant mortality Is the
fact that the greatest number of deaths
of children under four from 1942
through 1946 had to be listed in the
Health League of Canada's latest survey under the heading "Miscellaneous
Diseases (Cause Unknown)". Out of
91,228 deaths.listed during that peritid,
44,765 were accounted for by that designation. Diseases of the respiratory
system ranked second for children-Under four, accounting for 13,934 deaths,
and diseases of the digestive system"
accounted for 11,146. Accidents accidents accounted for the greatest
number ofdeaths in children over five,
with 1738 accident-deaths among children five through nine, and 1437 among-
children 10 through 14. Tuberculosis
assumed second place in both of these
older groups, accounting for 872 deaths
in the five through nine group, and
1010 deaths in the 10 through 14 group.
In all groups vehicle and other transport accidents accounted for most of
the accident deaths, with drowning in
second place.
Among disease preventable by immunization, smallpox has decreased to
zero, and diphtheria has decreased
from 2786 cases and 271 deaths in 1945
to 190 cases and 26 deaths in 1952.
However1, on the darker side, whooping cough and scarlet fever have increased in incidence, though use of the
antibiotic drugs may account for a
decrease in the'number of deaths from
these diseases. In 1952 there were 8520
cases of whooping cough and' 142
deaths, compared with 7671 cases and
231 deaths in 1946. There were 19,010
cases of scarlet fever and 24 deaths in
1951, compared with 9308 cases and 58
deaths in 1946. Health Departments
throughout Canada provide free immu-
■ nization against these diseases. Canadians should avail themselves of the

' Asks Protesting MPs To
Put Extra Pay Into Fund;
Cut Parliament Size
To the Editor: '
Sir—If Mr. Abbott and his colleagues cannot live on $22,000 a year, with freedom to add
to it from a private income, how can they
presume to tell others they must live on $480
to $600 a year, with a penalty lor earning over
$10 a month besides?
If the Minister of Finance finds his bank,
account on the wane since 1946 (when he took
office), how does he expect those living on
small private incomes and pensions to meet,
the rising, cost of living? To say nothing .of
the decrease in the sterling dollar. exchange.
All these people have to "grin and bear it",
praying all the time against extra taxes and
higher food prices, with no chance ot Increasing their, incomes by striking for higher wages
or by voting themselves a raise ln salary at.
the public expense.
We blame the strikers for causing the rise
in prices—but equally guilty are the Parliamentarians (MPs, Senators and Ministers
alike) who by raising-toeir own salaries are
placing ah extra burden of taxation on everyone. This was proved when Mr. Abbott said
that "owing to money not being so- easy to
obtain now" it was impossible to lower the
cost of cigarettes or to increase pensions. On
the heels of this announcement came a bite to,
raise the salaries of MPs and Senators, and
another to raise postal rates, which will affect
everyone, including those whose pensions "it

.'Pupils, Crescent Valley—Hoye  these names
Indian origins, and what do they mean?:
Nakusp, Kaslo, Slocan, Kootenay, Ma-
nee, SItcum and Revelstoke?       ,
Nakusp is derived from the Indian word
"Nego'Sp",' meaning whirling water; Kootenay moans flatbow, tho contours of the lake
having been likened to the flatbowa used by
tha early Kootenai Indians; Kokanee, also an
Indiaa ^vord, means redfish. We believe Kaslo
is a misspelling of the name of an early French
.prospector of these parts, and we are uncertain about Revelstoke, Perhaps  others  can
help? SItcum is undoubtedy an Indian word,
but so far we have not been able to trace the
meaning.
F. t, Nelson—What is the difference between
* a crocodile and an alligator? Iii what play
are the words, "There ls a tide ln the affairs of men ..."?.
The crocodile ls the largest living reptile,
and differs from the alligator principally in
having a longer, narrower head and more
obtuse inout. The alligator is so closely allied
* to .the crocodile that old naturalists classed
them as forming one genus, and in popular
speech the two are often confused. The alligator has a fourth, enlarged tooth of the under
jaw, received, not Into an external nptch, but
Into a pit formed for it within the upper one.
It also lacks a jagged fringe which, appears on
the hind legs of the crocodile, and in having
toes of the hind feet webbed not more than
'.half way to the tips. 'There ia a tide ln the

(Calgary Herald)
Many hard things could be, and have
been, said about the Canadian Senate, starting
with ita ludicrously lopsided nature. We ourselves believe in having an Upper House as a
vital part ot our democratic system, a place
for sober second thoughts, a brake on governmental Impetuosity, a place to watch over the
rights of fhlnorlties.
.But the Canadian Senate needs a major
overhaul to fulfil Ita historic purpose, and in
the meantime remarks like Senator Robertson's do not sit well at all.

people who cannot budgjt thefr own Incomes
are not very well suited to manage the finances of the nation!
I would suggest that those MPs and Senators who disapprove of salary raises at this
time, pool their extra $4000 a year for the benefit of those they they feel shoul^ have been
helped first This, of course,."would only represent a fraction of the large sum voted, as
most of the MPs and Senators are Liberals
and therefore approve the measure; also, there
ls the extra appropriation for the $5000 a year,
soon to be added to each Minister's salary, all
retroactive to last November. .
However, such a move would at least
register disapproval, and give some slight idea
of the sum that might have been available for
more worthy causea.
If our governors are such expensive luxuries, the only thing ls to cut down their number—"cut our coat to suit our cloth," in other
words. The Senate, tor Instance, apart from
providing a sure source of extra support for
the Government, appears to serve no useful
purpose other than acting as a kind of divorce

Much of creation ls renewed every year. Even the tissues of animals are renewed again and again,
the very bones and teeth are renewed. Character is not formed at
one fell stroke, but lt too must be
renewed. If it is not renewed we
tend to deteriorate and decay. The

Reading    this,    one    can    only
Imagine that the advertisers have
given little thought to their advertisement. They ask for a boy of 18
who has passed through high school
—and what would such a boy be
doing  now  if he  graduated   last
June? They do not state his duties,
or what chances there are for pro*
motion. In short, they are not selling-the job to the best applicant,
but rather treating them all somewhat  with   contempt.  There   are
many like this, anonymous firms
with  indefinite  requirements • and
the ignoble request, "State salary
required."
"Wanted, 1st class meat cutter
and counter-man. State age,
qualifications, references, and
wages   expected.   First   class
working conditions. Box. ."
Looking at it from the point of
view of the applicant, what has the
edvertiser to offer beyond the bare
and neubulous statement, first class
working conditions?
Here k another which offers
nothing:
"A young married man as dispatcher and shipper. Must have
knowledge of lower mainland
and city. State salary expected."
Have  you   any  Idea  why  they
want a married man? They certainly don't offer extra wages for that
qualification.
BEST FIRM8 KNOW   -
WHAT JOB IS WORTH
These anonymous and indefinite
advertisements make dreary reading, and must be most disheartening
to an intelligent man looking for a
job. But there, they are probably
small and Insignificant businesses,
without much pride in themselves
or respect tor their employees. Contrast them with those of the proud
and powerful B. C. Electric.
Here is one tor an electrical protection and control designer:
"The B. C. Electric requires
an Electrical Protection and
Control Designer. Qualifications
university degree in electrical
engineering or equivalent, plus
several years experience in protection and control of automatic
and remote sub-stations. Salary
range plus generous benefits,
$374 to $506."
If you think that It Is just for this
one particular job, look at the" advertisements for telephone operators by. the equally important B. C.
Telephone Co. They are just as
definite and indicative of the fact
that these companies know what a
job ls worth and are willing to pay
tor It.
Not all large organizations are as
lorthright. One claims to be
large financial corporation with 800
branches, and yet cannot tell Its
name, nor, despite all its rosy promises, is there one sentence which
states anything definite. -
Some advertisers expect too much
from applicants without offering
much ln return. Here is one from a
school district for a supervisor of
buildings:
"Applicants should have experience in construction work,
preferably some knowledge of
heating , systems and maintenance of electrical equipment:
in short, an all round man. capable of maintaining the school
plants in good condition. Must
have ability to maintain good
relations with both personnel
and public."
With such diverse qualifications,
not usually found in one person, the
salary should 'be stated, but no; the
advertisement simply says, "Give
starting salary required."
After studying these few examples, It becomes obvious that
many employers have failed to
develop a satisfactory concept of
employer-employee relationship.
They appear to believe, or at least
leave  one  with the  Impression,
that they eonslder their duty consists of demanding as much ai
possible from the employee and
giving as little jnoney In return,
Modern opinion of the employer-
employee  relationship  la that It
Is a-matter of an equitable exchange, services for an adequate
remuneration, plus, on both sides,
the ordinary consideration of one
person for another.
Newspapers are today our most
potent educational factor. It Is not
too much to expect that they can
change the pattern of the employers' Help Wanted advertisements.
They have on their staffs men who
are experts ln producing attractive
sales and merchandising advertisements. It would be to their benefit,
and to the employer and apolicant,
if they added to their staffs men
who would make Help Wanted advertisements  definite,  informative
and attractive.
Wildcat Strike
Tl esUp Hew
York Waterf. tat
NEW YORK (AP)-WJldcat striken tied up Mew York .huge port
Friday, defying a federal court
order In a battle for union control
of-the waterfront.
Resentful members of the Independent International! Longshoremen's Association refused to work
luxury-liner and other tilers in Manhattan, and stayed oft the job at
piers in Brooklyn ond Staten Island.',
Waterfront police reported that
the rival AFL union of the same
name also .refused to report to work
at strikebound piers, apparently to
avoid any brawling.
The' two unions are fighting tor
control of the dock workers.
The striking ILA longshoremen
said they acted because ot a federal court restraining order obtained against them Thursday by the
national labor • relations board.
Passengers boarding the liner
Queen Elizabeth were forced to
carry their own luggage.
Girl Wltk Green
Hair Stops Work
LONG BEACH, Calif. (AP) - A
pretty young miss whose hair was
green for a day returned to work
at Douglas Aircraft Co., Friday as a
brown-haired girl, and plane production resumed a steady pace.
Mrs. Lucille Balllnger, a clerk
told a friend pne day at work,
"When you cut your waist-long
hair, I'll color mine green." The
friend cut her hair.
So 'Thursday Mrs. Balllnger appeared on the job wearing a bright
red blouse—and green tresses. The
lacquer she applied had made her
hair grassy green.
CAME TO STARE
"I suppose 200 or 300 workers
came by to stare," said Mrs. Ballin-
ger. "I didn't think it would cause
such a commotion. I must admit it
stopped production."    ,
A foreman finally ordered her to
go home, saying: "Please be brown-
haired' again by tomorrow morning."
Mrs. Balllnger applied soap and
water to her locks Thursday night.
Said her husband: "There'll be no
more of that going on."
Help Unemployed
Without Food
VANCOUVER <CP)—Unemployed here who are physically able
to work but without money tor food
are to receive assistance under a
city-provincial benefit scheme.
Final details qf the plan were
completed by civic, provincial and
community chest officials.
It covers workers not eligible for
unemployment Insurance because
of the nature of their former jobs.
It they can prove they have no
money for food, they will get an
as yet undetermined sum each
month until they find work.
The present social service program allows only destitute who can
not work through disability to qualify for benefits. About 2000 here
now receive such aid, $62.50 a month
to a family of two, plus $12.50 for
each additional dependent.
Under the new scheme, married
men with families will be considered for assistance before single men.
All will be "carefully screened" for
eligibility.

VANCOUVER (CP)-Clty assessment commissioned Don McQueen
said Friday the provincial government will take over control of
property assessments from city
council next year.
Under legislation adopted last
year, the present court of,revision
system composed of aldermen will
be scrapped.
A three-man commission appointed by order-in-council will
hear all assessment appeals Instead.
Thus aldermen, who now can
alter assessment in the hearings,
will have no say in compilation

which taxes are based.
A 8HERLOCK HOLMES 8TORY
The Naval Treaty^
By SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE    "
WASHINGTON (AP) - President
Eisenhower Thursday nominated J.
Ernest Wilklns, 60, Chicago Negro
lawyer, to be assistant secretary of
labor, "The first time, so far as we
know, that a Negro has been appointed to a cabinet or, sub-cabinet
post," White House Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty said.
(Published by arrangement with

Doyle. World rights reserved. Illustrations copyrighted, 1954, by

Percy (Tadpole) Phelps, British Foreign Office official, is
facing ruin when a secret naval
treaty is stolen from his desk
under most mysterious circumstances. His one-time schoolmate, Dr. John H. Watson, has
Interested Holmes In the case.
. They are quizzing Phelps, convalescing from a nervous breakdown, in his country home,
where he Is being nursed by-
Anne Harrison, his fiancee. Her
brother Joseph is f. guest.
Phelps asserts that even Scotland Yard could find no real
clues. He's just told Holmes,
"You are absolutely my last
hope."
CHAPTER   II
Phelps sank back upon his
cushions, tired out by this long recital, while his nurse poured him a
glass of some stimulating-medicine.
Holmes sat silently, with his head
thrown back: and hie eyes closed.
"Your statement has been so explicit," said he at last, "that you
have really left me very few questions to ask. There is one of the
very utmost importance, however.
Did you tell anyone that you had
this special task to perform?"
"No one." .
"Not Miss Harrison here, for example?"
"No. I had not been back to Woking then."
"And none of your people had
been to see you?"
"None."
"Did any of them know their way
about the office?"
"Oh, yes, all of them had been
shown over it."
"Still, of course, if you said nothing to anyone about the treaty these
inquiries are ih-elevant."
"I said nothing."
"Do you know anything of the
commissionaire?"?
"Nothing except that he is an old
soldier—Coldstream Guards."
"Thank you. I have no doubt I
can get more details from Forbes.
The authorities are excellent at
amassing facts, though they do not
always use them to advantage. What
a'lovely thing a rose lsl"
He WHked past the couch to the
open window and held up the
drooping stalk of a moss-rose, look.
Ing down at the dainty blend of
crimson and green. It was a new
phase of his character to me, for I
had never before seen him show
any keen Interest in natural objects.
* "There Is nothing In which deduction is so necessary as in religion," said he, leaning back against
the shutters. "It can be built up as
an exact science by the reasoner.
Our highest assurance of the goodness of Providence seems to me to
rest .in flowers. All other things—
our powers, desires, food—are really
necessary for our existence in the
first' instance. But this rose ls an
extra. Its smell and color are an
embellishment of life, not a condition of it. It Is only goodness which
gives extrEts, and so I say again
that we have much to hope from
the flowers."
Phelps and his nurse looked at
Holmes during this demonstration
with surprise and a good deal of
disappointment written upon their
faces. He'had fallen Into a revorie,
with the moss-rose between his lingers. It had lasted some minutes
before the young lady broke ln upon
It "Do you see any prospect bf solving this mystery, Mr. Holmes?" she
asked.
"Oh, the mystery!" he answered,
coming back with a start to the
realities of life. "Well, It woifld he
absurd to deny that the case ls a
very complicated one, but I can
promise you that I will look Into
the matter and let you know any
points which may strike me."
"Do you see any clue?"
"You have furnished me with
seven, but I must test them before
I can assay their value."
"You suspect someone?"
"I suspect myself."
"Whatl"
"Of coming to conclusions too
rapidly."
"Then go to London and test your
conclusions."
"Your advice ls very excellent,
Miss Harrison," said Holmes, rising,
"I think, Watson! we cannot do better. Do not allow yourself to indulge in false hopes, Mr. Phelps.
tThe .affair js a very ..tangled .«}£,*'
"I shall be" In a fever till I set-
you again," said the diplomatist.
"Well, I'll come out by the same
train tomorrow, though it'a more
than likely that my report will be 1
negative one."
"God bless you for promising to
come!" exclaimed our client. "By
the way, I have had, a, letter from
Lord Holdhurst."
"What did he say?"
"He was cold, but not harsh,
dare say my severe illness prevented him from being that. He
repeated that the matter was of th<
utmost Importance, and added thai
no steps would be taken about inj
future — by which he means,; ft
course, >my dismissal — until inj
health is restored and I have ar
opportunity ot repairing ray misfortune."
"Well, that was reasonable anc
considerate," said Holmes. "Come
Watson, for we have a good day'i
work before us in town.*'

station, and we were soon whlrliril
up in a Portsmouth train. Sherlrjcl

view was sordid enough, but h

Canadian Press Staff Writer
MONTREAL (CP) — Canadian

Fifty leading textile and fashion
firms are taking part in the festival organized by the Canadian

conscious city.
The six-day festival was officially
opened Tuesday night by Mayor
Camilllen Houde.
Organizers say they hope 100,000
persons' will view the displays.

and buttons fashioned from black
leather.
For swimming, blue and rose are
the choice colors. One. suit in royal
blue with, a long scalloped torso
fringed with pearls, arou_ed great
interest. Others settle for pleats, depending for impact on the brilliant
colors of the fabrics igi which they
are fashioned.
In tailoring Canadian desingers
favor'straight-cut jackets and narrow skirts. One of the country's top
designers, 26-year-old David Nasler,
is showing a two-piece worsted suit
in golden yellow, its simplicity relieved by a half-belt.. across .the
rear of the coat and' luxuriously
large cuffs.

stone for at.least 50 years.
MANY TE8T8U
Clipsham stone, considered
among the best of all British building stones, has been quarried here
tor centuries. It has been used on
Buckingham Palace, the restored
House of Commons, buildings at
Oxford and Cambridge and. on Canterbury and. Salisbury cathedrals.
Many tests were made ton Clipsham stone, particularly under Lon-

to be one_.of the best weathering
stones available.
Now' D. J. Davenport-Handley,
owner of the. Clipsham Quarry
Company, announces that the new

Pruning your own fruit tree is as
easy as falling off a ladder, Doug
TTiorpe of the provincial horticultural branch claims.
In demonstrations of pruning,
bidding and grafting, Thorpe pointed out that the general idea is to
keep the branches as close as possible to right angles from the trunk.
and k£ep the tree "open and well-
balanced. ■
HOW Tp DO It
Starting wj#. a newly-planted,
the horticulturist lopped off everything to a height of three feet from
the ground. Then he took the tips
off the remaining two or three branches, because it lost at least a third
of its roots when the nurseryman
dug it up. He cut Back the tips to
the first bud underneath the branch.
In the case of second season trees,
Thorpe selected his main branches
so they would be a foot to a toot
and a half apart on the trunk, and
in the form of a cross if you looked
down on the tree fron) straight
above it. After the first year there
is no more tipping ln his routine,
unless one branch out-grows its fellows and puts the tree out of balance. He favors cutting off all unwanted branches, shoots and suckers from new trees as they pop out
in summer, although winter is thfe
usual pruning period.
Transition period from a wood-
growing toa fruit-bearing plant is
between tlie ages of four to six
years, and Thorpe warned against
pruning off all the fruit spurs, easily Identified by their birdfoot appearance.
In pruning each branch, right out
to the tip, he advises the grower to
take off all branches growing upward or downward, so that the remaining stock grows out flat. Where
a branch forms a fork at the outer
end, he takes off the upper one.
A main branch should take off
from the trunk at right angles, as
much as. possible, he says because
the upward ones break off easily
and also tend to curve down to the
.ground.
When the tree reaches nine to 10
feet in height, he takes the tip off
just above the first lateral branch
which points northward. A southward branch would keep sun out of
the tree.
Thorpe is against cutting a tree
back to keep it small. For that rea
son he would allow from 30 to 40
feet between large types and 10
feet between dwarfs. For a city lot
or other restricted space, he recommends dwarfs.
8HAVE OFF 8UCKERS
Fruiting spurs left should also
be those vttiich grow out parallel to
the ground, he said.
In planting young trees, the graft
just above the root.shouid be just
below ground level except for the
dwarfs, in which case it should be
just above the ground. Reason he
gave was that if the trunk should
root, the tree won't dwarf, for it's
the dwarf rootstock that does the
trick.
Cutting suckers off at ground
lev*, is worse than useless, the horticulturist pointed out. It is essential, he said, to dig right down and
shave them off the root.
Pear trees present a special problem since.they tend to grow too upright, so for these, Thorpe advises
use of spreaders to push the
branches down, or cans of rocks
tied to the branches for the same
purpose.

Early Spring Flowers if
Buds Forced Indoors Now
It is easy to have flowers tor
home- decoration well in advance
Of spring by cutting some branches
and forcing them Into bloom weeks
ahead of their natural season. Their
small green leaves and star-like
blossoms add a special charm during the dull days of winter.
■Most branches, whether of flowering trees, shrubs or fruits, can be
forced, but it is best to 'cut them In
the order of their natural blooming.
JASMINE READY
Winter lasmine starts the parade
and in sheltered locations it may
be in bloom at the present time.
By cutting branches of forsythla
now you can have it in flower .in
two weeks' time.
Then, in the following order, you
can cut and force pieces of peach,
flowering almond, cydonia or Japanese quince, and cherry, After these
you can still force twigs cut from
plum and apple, both of which are
among the loveliest of blossortis.
Pieces are cut ranging in size up
to the thickness of your little finger.. Make the cut on the slant. After
splitting or crushing the end of the
stems, submerge completely in a
large vessel of lukewarm Water.
Leave them submerged overnight to
help swell the buds.
When it is not convenient to use
a really large ve^sel^ place the
branches upright in a deep pall, so
that as much stem as possible will
be under water.
8WELL IN FEW DAYS
The next day the submerged ones
are stood upright in deep water and
placed where they can get sunshine,
but away from the direct heat of a
fire or radiator.
After a few* days you will notice
a decided swelling of the buds, and
a short time later they-will commence to -flower.
These brandies can be used as a
background in association with a
few shqrt-stemmed cut flowers or
arranged alone.
Magnolia soulangeana is another
favorite tor forcing, its knotty
branches being ideal for arrangihg.
This is a sure way of having an
extra early spring indoors, at no
cost and very little trouble.
Each year many people move to
property where a complete new
start has to be made in laying out
the ground for a new garden.
Whether It Is new property in the
city or an acre In the country, the
worst thing they can do is be in too
big a hurry to get started. This ls
.the equivalent of "putting the cart
before the horsed"
Invariably by being too anxious
to make a quick showing, fruit
trees and shrubs will be put ln
wrong places, causing a serious
check when they have to be moved
later,, not to mention insufficient
care being taken to prepare the soil
properly at the time of planting.
Many other features such as the
position of paths, hedges, pool,
windbreaks, lawns, vegetable, flower and rose heds, rockery, etc., need
careful consideration from the very
start.
TAKE IT EASY
Good advice would be to take It
easy and start planning now in the
comfort of a warm room. You will
need seed andmursery catalogues to
remind   you   of  the. many  trees,

Tried in Jail
NEW WESTMINSTER, B.C. (CP)
—Public speaking as a crime-
deterrent is being tr|ed out with
some measure of success in the
British   Columbia   penitentiary.
Warwick C. Angus of Victoria,'
who specializes in effective speaking, is giving free courses. Each
course runs for 15 weeks and 35
prisoners are selected for each
term. •
One man serving a 10-year sentence said: "The course has made
a different man out of me . . .
Now that I have learned to express
myself freely with other people, I
have a different attitude toward
life . . . I'm going to stay out of
this place for good when I leave."
Mr. Angus said it is still a bit
early to ascertain the results of the
courses, "but I feel confident all
inmates will b'enefit to some extent."
GOOD HORSEMEN
The Gauchos of the Argentine
plains, noted for horsemanship,
are chiefly of Spanish - American
origin. •   '
A new system of construction,
the "lift-slab" method, is being used
to erect a three-storey apartment
building on West Boulevard at
Forty-eighth Avenue in Vancouver.
The floors and roof slabs are of
reinforced concrete, nine inches
thick. The building when finished
will consist of two offset units,
each 47 by 65 feet, giving the whole
structure about 6000 square feet of
ground coverage.
For each  of the two units the
roof and floor slabs are cast, one
at a time, on top of one another.
FLOOR-CEILING
The top surface of the slabs are
carefully trowelled and a coating
of a special substance is spread.
When the next slab, with only a
nine-inch surrounding board for a
form, is cast, its underside has so
smooth a surface that it does not
need any treatment other than
painting to form a ceiling.
Purpose of the special "spread" is
to enable, the slabs to be separated
and lifted each to its proper place,
by means of powerful hydraulic
jacks.
Before the slabs are cast, nine
vertical steel columns tor each
building unit are erected on foundations calculated by engineers to
hold the weight required. A set of
collars on the columns ' tor each
floor unite with the reinforcement
of the slab to provide guides and
means of attachment for the lifting
rods.
First, the roof and an upper floor
slab are hoisted about half-way up
the columns and temporarily supported by welded brackets. This is
to prevent side movement before
the building is braced by the permanent attachment of the lower
floors in their places by similar
brackets. Then the upper slabs are
lifted and attached.
R. H. Little, of Keystone Construction Co. Ltd., explains that
this method results In _ such
economies that the cost of a fireproof self-owned apartment Is In
line with the cost of similar accommodation   in   a   frame   and
stucco Individual home, with lets
maintenance cost.
One of these economies results
from the lifting, with the slab, of
much of the building materials
for partition and curtain walls
with the slab Itself. Another
great saving Is In the material
and labor costs Involved In normal concrete forming, Including
Its removal. Pumice blocks are
being used for the partitions and
curtain walls, none of them
weight-bearing.
Only one 15 h.p. electric motor Is
required to operate the hydraulic
pump which applies 3000 pounds
pressure per square inch. The
weight of each concrete slab when
lifted is 200 tons, plus Its load of
materials.
little Patients
Help Painter
LONDON,' Ont. (CP) — William
O. Moore, a London artist, wanted
to do something for the children In
War Memorial Hospital here. And
the children helped him do it.
He decided to paint a woodland
nursery mural in a corridor of the
hospital. Tiny patients milled about
his feet as he worked and he asked
if they would like to help. They
would.
As fast as brushes could be supplied the children set to work under his guidance.
In "odd moments" over a three-
week period, Mr. Moore completed
the mural, nine feet high and 22
feet long. It was the biggest job
he had attempted.
"But then, on this job I had lots
of help," he said.
The children kept on painting
after the mural was finished and
covered every inch'of glass panelling in their ward.
Nurses say the children love to
sit and admire the mural and their
own work.

Effective Way to
Repaint Spout
Peeling paint ls complaint of a
reader who says a contractor placed
an already painted Tainspout on the
front and back of the homeS Now
the paint is peeling. Should the metal be conditioned before new paint
is applied?
Answer: Evidently the downspouts are of galvanized metal. Remove the remainder of the paint
and then wash the surfaces with
vinegar. When dry, coat the metal
with red lead or a zinc base rust In-
hibitive paint. The final coat of
paint can be ordinary house paint
to match the walls.

A book with illustrations of garden

Use graph paper for preference)
using a. measure of .say a foot to

You will nceo. many sheets before the final, - but on the first, put
in roughly where you can visualize
the main features, then on a fine
day measure these distances outdoors, so you can adjust them more
to scale on subsequent sheets.
THIS 13 DOODLE TIME
This is the time to doodle away
and keep changing the measurements and ideas, during the plan*
ning' stage, so that there will be no
need to flounder about when the
actual outdoor job has to be
started.
Many properties will, have "natural", features ..such as a slope
which could be terraced, put-crop-'
ping large rocks for a rockery,'a
small stream, trees which may be
left standing as specimens, etc. Advantage could be taken of any of
these and they could be clearly outlined on Ihe plan.
Another Important item is the
amount of money one has to spend.
If there is not sufficient to complete the whole project, go slowly,
making a thorough job of each
small section as funds and your
time will allow.

Building an. outdoor barbecue
fireplace is an easy and Interesting
rnasonry project for anyone handy
with tools.
Here are some of the barbecue
tips from masons:
An outdoor fireplace built among
tall trees and heavy shrubbery will
call tor a taller chimney. Overhanging branches may be killed by the
heat of the fire, so you have to
figure on this.
Plan the opening of the fireplace
so that it faces prevailing winds and
you will be assured of a good draft

' .By BILL McLOUGHLIN
TRAIL—If by chance the reason for sending a Canadian team to the world hockey championships at Stockholm
was to strengthen international relations, then the project
should be abandoned in favor	
' of some other measures.
It comes somewhat of a shock to
discover thai the East York Lynd'
hursts have been described, as some'
thing slightly less than a band of
thugs and if newspaper accounts
from Sweden are to be relied upon
impartiality is not a keynote of the
Swedish temperament. The Cana'
dian team under manager Don
Preston and coach Greg Currie went
to great lengths to develop a mild
unassuming brand of fiockey for
their European Jaunt Thanks to
their efforts they suffered, two losses which might have been wins If
their tactics had been more Canadian and less diplomatic. The outburst Thursday in a leading Swedish paper brought the matter to a
head.
In the game against Germany a
German player ,was Injured, btu
said afterwards it was an accident
and not the fault of the Canadians.
It would appear that the German
was a beter sport than the Swedes.
They discounted his statements and
Immediately, described tha attack as
criminal.
The conclusion of the European
tour fiasco leads Canadian observers to believe that political propaganda has been the basis for the
attacks and that Sweden, the de-
tending champion, would much
rather see Canada staying out of
world play.
Next time let's send fhe cheer-
leaders.
Getting back to the local sports
we notice this week that play in
the Western International League
perked up somewhat as the teams
began their usual season wlndup
juggling routine.
While playoff positions may decide the fate of the eventual winner of the league title the old question arises as to why the 4eams
couldn't have done their Juggling
earlier in the season?
Many an observer has come up
with what has been considered excellent suggestions, but just for the
record books a new one developed
this week should interest the players on some teams. I
This solution was revealed during
last Thursday night's game at Trail
between the Smokies and Spokane.
A hockey fan of many years feels
that an assessment against each club
should be levied each year and that
the proceeds from the assessment
be. split with the four teams, in
order of finish. The amount of the
assessment and therefore the cash
disbursements would be left to the
league to solve, but the top three
clubs would be included in the payoff. While this solution may be unworkable or may meet with rebuff
from league evecutives, it at least
shows the present thinking of hockey fans in, the Western International.
The second solution is one which
has been bandied about in tha
league since four teams became a
reality instead of fiction. That's the
solution thas recommends a three-
team playoff with the top team getting a bye into the finals.
This may seem to be the easiest
and most obvious answer to the
question of how to improve league
play? There is, however, one drawback to tbe proposal. The drawback
is, naturally, financial.
In this day of high priced talent
and high priced hockey, semi-final
and final playoff series frequently
' mean the difference between the
red and the black on the ledger.
Clubs who through the season
operate on a slim marginal basis
are neither willing to consider nor
accept the proposal. The only way
around this touchy subject would
be for an asessment to be paid the
club dropped out of the playoffs
and this poses an even more interesting problem.
If the money levied to assist the
fourth place club were Inviting
enough then It might just prove to

an attractive suggestion to get paid
for running out of the money.

As Reps Go Ahead
In Minor Playoff
Bernie Monteleone gave the Bantam Reps a one-game' edge ln the
Midget playoffs this week when he
apored four goals and assisted on
the fifth as the Reps won 3-4 In
overtime over the Cubs.
The victory gave the Reps three
points ln the best-of-three playoffs
as the first game ended in a 2-2
deadlock. The Cubs, who were not
even rated a chance in the series,
have come up with two fine performances and are forcing the Reps
to go all out to gain the championship.
Altera scoreless first period the
Cubs took a two-goal lead in the
second when Dinham Drew and
Petroskl scored. They added a third
goal in the third when Smith scored
trom Jennings. -
The Reps completed a long uphill
battle when Monteleone counted
twice and assisted on Wah's counter.
Monteleone's second goal proved to
be the tieing marker which sent
the game Into overtime.
Tom Hufty counted the Cubs'
fourth goal in the overtime, but
Monteleone counted twice to tuck
the game away.
Four penalties were called with
Cubs taking three of them.
Tonight will see the West Kootenay Midget and Bantam playoffs
continue when Trail will be the visitors at the Civic arena.
The' winners of this series will

Canada's Part in
World Hockey To Be
Decided in May
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) — Whether Canada withdraws from future
world hockey championships will
be decided when the Canadian
Amateur Hockey Association meets
in May, CAHA president W. B.
(Baldy)  George said here Friday.
He was commenting on an angry
denunciation of^the Swedish press
and public made Thursday by Canadian manager Don Preston.
Preston said Canada should not
enter any more teams in the competition because "we are not welcome here."
George said he had "no comment"
to make on the suggestion. Much
of the criticism of the Canadian
team. Toronto East Yorks, has been
"entirely newspaper propaganda,"
he added.
Meanwhile, Czech and Finnish
sportsmen insisted the Dominion
players were' "gentlemen of the
rink" and not gangsters, even
though they play' a rougher game
than their European'opponents.
MIDLAND, Ont. (CP) — George
Dudley, secretary-manager of the
Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, said Friday Canada may snub
future ^vorld hockey championships.
Dudley said in an Interview that
"if they don't like us in Europe
we might just as Well stay home."

KDMQNTON (CP)-Matt Baldwin, 27-year-old Edmonton draw-artist, brought Alberta its fifth Canadian curling championship Friday when he won the 1954 championship here with a 10-5/victory over R. T. McCully's New
Brunswick rink.
It was the 20th time In 25 years
of competition that, the title has
come west. It was won In 1933 by
Ab Gowanlock of Manitoba.
Baldwin, leading 9-5 with last
rock coming homo and with a New
Brunswick rock ln the rings, slid
almost halfway down the Ice before
releasing His .rock. It went to
the button behind the New Brunswick rock.  '   ■ ■
There was some confusion as to
whether the Alberta rock would
count but the officials awarded
Baldwin one on the last end.
Immediately after the game, Baldwin and his Edmonton rink were
presented with the Brier Tankard,
emblematic of Canadian curling
supremacy. '
The curlers from Canada's 10
provinces then formed up behind a
massed Highland pipe band and
paraded through the Edmontorf
gardens to the cheers of more than
3000 spectators.
ONLY ONE DEFEAT
Baldwin won the title with nine
victories against one loss in the 10-
game round-robin. His lone defeat
was an 8-5 Iosb in the eighth round
against 71-year-old Ross, Tarlton of
Hamilton. Eleven rinks competed.
Ontario had two entries, one representing Northern Ontario.
Second was Saskatchewan's
Campbell brothers rink who wen
eight games and lost two. They defeated Quebec's Arvida foursome
skipped by W. R. Tracy, 12-9 ln their
last game of the competition.
Nova Scotia, skipped by Reg
Plercy; British Columbia led by E.
C. (Bung) Cartmell, Northern Ontario, skipped by Don Groom of
Sudbury, and Ontario, led by Ross
Tarlton pf Hamilton, were tied for
third place with six victories and
four losses  apiece.
New Brunswick and Manitoba
had four victories  and  six losses
each. Prince Edward Island and
Quebec each won three and lost
seven and Newfoundland lost all
•10 of its games.
Ontario defeated Nova Scotia, led
by Reg Plercy, 13-7 In their last
gome, Manitoba, under veteran
Jimmy Welsh scored a 15-4 win
over Newfoundland skipped by R.
J Kent.
CLOSE BATTLE
McCully and Baldwin battled on
even terms over six ends as they
both favored a moderate running
game. In the firt end, they exchanged rocks until Baldwin counted one with his last stone.
McCulley threw away his last rock
on the second end when he went,
through the empty house with last
stone in order to have last rock on
the next end.
On the third end, McCully scored
one when he took out an Alberta
rock lying shot and went out himself. Had he stayed he would have
scored two.
Baldwin got a house going on the
fourth end and had two in the rings
when McCully raised one of his
rocks to cut out one Alberta counter. Baldwin was light on his last
stone and Alberta got one.
McCully scored one on the hext
end when he drew Into the empty
house. The sixth. end was almost
a dead end but the umpires measured and'gave Alberta one for a rock
just touching the edge of the 12-
foot circle.
McCully missed a take-out on the
seventh, end and Alberta scored
two. That seemed to make a difference. The Baldwin crew gained confidence.
They got another on the eighth
end, gave up one on the ninth,
smashed in for three on the 10th
and then contented themselves with
draining away McCully's rock
supply until it was impossible for
him to overtake them.

Canada Point Ahead
\ y. ■,
Of Russia for Title
STOCKHOLM (CP)—A fighting Swedish hockey team
tied Russia 1-1 Friday night and shifted the pressure onto
Moscow Dynamos in,their pay-off game with Canada Sunday
for the world title.
Both the Dynamos and Toronto
East York sre unbeaten ln six
games. "But Friday night's tie left
the Russians one point behind the
Canadian entry, which needs only
a draw in Sunday's game to retain
first place.
Canada's representatives had
troubles of their own earlier Friday before they disposed of Czechoslovakia 5-2. Tlie Czechs trailed
3-2 at the end of two periods and
were battling hard to get back into
the game until Insurance tallies by
Russ Robertson and Eric Unger set
up East York's winning margin.
TOUGHEST TE8T
It was by far the toughest test
of the tournament for the Canadians. All their previous opponents
lost by seven goals or more.
A crowd of more than 10,000
watched the game, cheering wildly
the Czechs gave East York
goalie Don Lockhart his busiest day
Scoreless Tie for

CHICAGO (AP) — New York
Rangers were held to a scoreless
tie by Chicago Black Hawks Friday
night to move into a fourth-place
tie with the idle Boston Bruins in
the National Hockey League race.
It was the fourth shutout of the
season for each goaUe. However,
Johnny Bower of the Rangers had
a rougher time as he was required
to make 37 stops to 28 for Al Rollins
of the Hawks.
The game was slow for the most
part, enlivened only by a third-
period fist fight between Lee Fogo-
lin of Chicago and Ivan Irwin of
New York. They drew five-minute
major penalties.
Otherwise, both' teams resorted
pretty much to cautious defensive
hockey. The Rangers particularly
took no unnecessary chances.

kept them In the running. A Swedish goal was scored less than a
second after the bell ended play ln
the second period.
TAKE EARLY LEAD
In a game hampered by soft Ice,
the Canadians took an early lead,
over the Czechs as Earl Clements
scored shortly after the seven-minute mark, but a goal by Bacilek
evened the count leas than two
minutes later.
The Canadians launched a steady
attack which waa rewarded by two
quick goals by George Sayliss and
Moe Galand before the first inter-
mission. It was the 15th goal of
the series for Galand, tha .tournament scoring leader.
In the second period the Czechl
abandoned European-style combln-
ation play and began shooting on
goal In the Canadian manner. The
switch In tactics, together with Improved defensive work, appeared to
unbalance .the East York club.
Finally centre Martin Zebrodaky,
a veteran of the 1940 Czech team
that beat Canada 3-2 for the title,
produced the losers' second goal.
After Robertson and Unger gave
Canada a safe margin the winners
appeared to coast, possibly saving
themselves for Sunday's final test.
In Friday's  curtain-raiser, Germany downed Finland 5-1 to climb 1
into fifth place in the eight-team
round-robin series.
The Czechs, beaten by Russia
earlier in the tournament by the
identical 5-2 score, face Sweden today in a battle for third place. The
Swedes currently hold a one-point
edge, having taken an 8-0 beating'
from Canada for their only defeat,
Winless SwitzerlanU , meets Fin- '"
land in the day's only, other ae» j
tivlty. ;,'.'
Germany and Norway close out*
their schedule Sunday before the E
Canada-Russia game.
