Lee Detroit: — The famed Harmsworth trophy, emblematic of world speed suprem­ acy on the water, was on its way to Canada today, after Harold Wilson, of Ingersoll, piloted his Miss Canada IV to victory over three U. S. boats. The trophy has been sitting in the Detroit Yacht Club since 1920, after being successfully defended over the years by Gar Wood and his famed Miss Americas. Nine times England tried to take the trophy back, and nine times they failed. This was Canada’s first time in the race, and it was Canada’s challenge that forced the race this year. The win was the lifetime ambition of both Harold and E. A. Wilson, owner of all the Miss Canada boats, and now it is hoped the boat will make an official attempt on the world's speedboat record of 141. miles an hour, set by Sir Malcolm Campbell in 1939. Miss Canada IV al­ ready has beaten the record unofficially. Riding with Harold Wilson-and his first time in a big race-was Walter Harvey, of Ingersoll, ex RCAF aero Engine mech­ anic. On the sidelines was Charlie Volker, Harold**, engineer who had ridden with him in many a race but who couldn’t ride in this OQe as Harmsworth rules said the crew must be of the country or the boat Miss* Canada beat the pride of the U.

St. Laurent to Harold Wilson, his crew and Miss Canada IV on the eve of their big race against the pick of U.S. speedboats for the Harmsworth trophy, emblematic of world supremacy. Prime Minister St Laurent, holidaying at Kent Lodge near Bathhurst, N.B., took time out to send the following special message to The Tribune: “All Canadians are interested in international sporting events and will be hoping for the success of Harold Wilson and his Miss Canada IV in the forthcoming speedboat races at De­troit this week-end. On their behalf, as well as my own, I wish him the best of luck.”LOUIS S.‘ST. LAURENT” TUNING UP IN DETROIT NOW Miss Canada IV, Harold Wilson, driver and crew, are in Detroit today getting final tune-ups prior to the first heat of the famed Harmsworth race at 6 p.m. tomorrow. Under provincial police escort all the way down, thepowerful challenger left Ingersoll yesterday after hundreds of people from all over had inspected the sleek craft as itstood in the market square Tuesday.. Gord. Pattfirson drove the special truck-trailer carrying the craft, which created great excitement all the way down. Meantime, ail tickets for the special Kiwanis Harms­ worth excursion have long been sold and a big parade, of nine buses carrying 325 enthusiasts, will pull out from McVitlfie and Shelton’s bus depot Saturday. They will be accompanied by 14 members of the Ingersoll Pipe Band and banners reading “Miss Canada IV—Ingersoll, Ont./’ will tell the world, what is going on. All 500 seats reserved for the Kiwanis at the race course have been sold, and interest was so jgreat many more could have been disposed of. It isn’t all Ingersoll that is going,either; there are people from Norwich, Tillsonburg, London, Woodstock,-Embro, Paris, Brantford—everywhere.

For fivemonths they labored over it, thenturned it on. Signals came through from television stations in the U.S. but mo pictures. They checked itover and over, raised the aerial al­ most to the sky, but still no pictures.Joe finally decided to take theset to a U.S, town with a television transmitter to see if the set wasn'tbuilt right, or whether it was just a question of proximity to a station,or power. So he took it to Toledo,Ohio, and turned it on. "It worked beautifully,” relatedJoe,”—jnst like a moving picture.So I bought a booster for addedpower and brought the set backhome. On Saturday night I turned it on at home, and in came Cleve­land pictures—clear as a belt” Joe's big hope now is that the Harmsworth races of Detroit to­morrow and Saturday will be tele­vised, and he’ll be able to get themon his television screen. "I might bring it down to the shop”, he said,"and then people who couldn’t getto Detroit could watch the race asthough they were on the river bank.” _A letter arrived from .South.Africa for-Sne Wilson of xraiateur radio fame, there last week"From a 'Johannesburg address, it 3>car Sir: “I noticed your name in She callbook which lasts amateur radio oper­ators the world over, and won­ dered if you are the same isersonwho was in -the R.C.A.F. in Egypt,(seconded to the RAF on 581 A3I.E.S.)

The money was in response to a plea to all business and employeesof Ingersoll and area to try andgive one day’s pay to the new hos­pital, which will be one of the finest ■in the country. Walter Harvey, young Ingersollmechanic, who until three years agohad been in nothing bigger than arowboat, will ride as Harold Wil­ son’s crew in the Harmsworth to­morrow and Saturday. Walter’s choice follows the heart­ breaking decision of the Harms­worth officials that Charlie Volker,who has worked and ridden with Harold for years and in scores ofraces, is not eligible to ride in MissCanada IV in the big race under the Harmsworth rules. All the crewmembers have to be citizens of thecountry which is racing. Charlie is not a -Canadian, and thus he’s out.Charlie, whose fiancee, Mabie Clark,was among those burned in the ex­plosion of the Sarah Maude, took the ruling philosophically. / "If the rules say I can’t, then that’s that," he said.

THURSDAY, JULY 28, 1949 Good Luck, Mis* Canada IV Bring That Trophy Back Tomorrow an Ingersoll man, Harold Wilson, faces what i* possibly the biggest test of his life­ time. For years he has been racing motorboats, start­ ing with the tiny “one lungers”‘and gradually working up to bigger, mor* powerful and faster speedboat*, and participating in more and more lmp''rtant races. In the race tomorrow—and Sat­ urday—he has reached the peak in the speedboat world. The Harm-worth Trophy race is the ultimate in speedboating, and for 20 years the Wilsons— both Harold and E. A., owner of the boats—have been working up to it Tomorrow Harold, with his crew, takes on the cream of the U.S. speedboats— and pilots—in an effort to wrest from the U. S. th* trophy that has been sitting there 28 years. Technically, it is not * race of man against man, but country against country, and each country can enter a team of three boats. But in this case it is the Wilsons against the country, for the U. S. have selected three of their finest boats and their finest drivers. They are heavy odds that the Ingersoll chal­ lenger faces. Under the rules, it is the country that wins two heats that wins the trophy. One U. S. boat could win ono'heat, another, the sec­ ond. The U. S. could have two boats break down and still be in the race. If Miss Canada IV breaks down—so it can’t be repaired in time—the race is over. In challenging the U. S. the Wilsons have taken on a big job. They have pitted themselves against the ingenuity and engineering and sporting skill of what is considered by many the greatest coun­ try in the world. They have a world-beating hull, a wonderful engine, a driver of vast experience, and bags of steam and enthusiasm, With any luck at al', they have a great chance of winning. But, whether they win or lose, they are bringing great honor to Canada. So, we feel everyone will join with us in saying ’’GOOD LUCK and GODSPEED MISS CANADA IV, and YOUR CREW and BRING THAT TROPHY BACK." ' bad food to anr children.

LOOKING BACKIn the Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario Let’s Have Cleaning Bee Make Creek Pretty Again Once upon a time a pretty little stream ran through Ingersoll, just behind where all the stores stand on the east side of Thames St It was a pleasant place, with grassy slopes for picnicking, and cooling willows 'neath which the trout used to hide. The water was clear’ as crystal and there wasn’t a more refreshing drink in the area. But that stream has vanished. Water is stil) running in the same bed, but it seems more like an open sewer than anything else. Everyone seems to think it is just a garbage dump, for it is filled with everything—old rubber boots, tin cans, old shoes, bits of rusty iron, and debris of every kind. To drink the water would give you almost any­ thing, we can imagine. One hesitates to even dunk his foot in it. But this tarnished little stream could be turned into something pretty and pleasant again—and at very little cost Councillor Tom Morrison once suggested we have a cleaning bee—everyone pitch in for a few evenings and clein the stream out and restore to it something of its former beauty. We think it’s a good idea, and we’ll help. The Ground bog Hits Back Eighty-year old Mr. Nathan Tarr of Stouffville,Ontario, stopped on the road to tie a shoelace anda groundhog charged him repeatedly with great determination. "I must have walked between theground hog and its young” said Mr. Tarr.Theorizing on this unusual attack, we can prob­ ably dismiss at once any thought of an allergyagainst the tying of shoelaces. We also hazard theopinion that the ground hog had nothing personal against Mr. Tarr at all. It was just that Mr. Tarris a member of the human race, and the thingsthe human race has said about groundhogs would merit massed revenge if groundhogs couldever get together.But groundhogs,'are individuals, inclined to be morose. It is thought by some who know nothingabout animals that as a race they resent theslander which has been perpetrated against themto wit: That they annually come out of theirwinter quarters on February 2, but hole-in againimmediately if they see their shadow, thus in some unexplained manner inciting another onslaught ofwinter. The theory is obviously full of holes, evenincluding groundhog holes. First, no sane ground­ hog would leave his warm nest in what is stillthe dead of wnter. Second, if he saw his shadowhe'd stay out to bask in the sunlight. To assume that he would do otherwise is a gross libel of hisintelligence.It is clear, therefore, that the groundhog which attacked Mr. Tarr did so to avenge a basicand not a persona] wrong. He was like a lot of human beings. He brooded over a grievance untilit got him down, and then, again like humans, hetook it out on an innocent person. —Globe and Mail Advice on Human Relations ’^Mistakes in human relations are the most im­portant reasons why many competent people get fired, eased out, or passed up when promotion timecomes round.”That will be a platitude to everyone who hasever done any hiring or firing. Nevertheless itis a platitude that deserves constant reiterationeven to those people who do hire and fire, because,they, almost as often as the office boys and fileclerks, forget that the human animal dislikes and tries to avoid those personalities which are pricklyjust as eagerly as a dog tries to dislodge his fleas.The opening quotation comes from career con­sultant, W. J. Reilly, in his new book “How To Avoid Work.”Some of the points he makes in his advice on human relations (i.e. your personal public rela­tions) are these:Don’t go over the boss’ head. “Any time you feel that your boss doesn't know what it’s allabout, that you could run things a lot better than he can, and that you’ve got to go over hishead to get results, just be patient until the lead­ers of your organization find all this out and takethe proper action. Don't try to undermine yourboss and don't try to go over his head.”Don’t step on other peoples’ ideas. “Whether you think you’re 100% right or not, give the otherfellow the benefit of the doubt. Hear him out.Give his idea a break. Chances are he’s not en­tirely wrong.” . Admit, don’t defend your iriistakes. Watch your promises. "Conservative promises—and oftenno promises at- all—inspire more confidence thana lot of overstatements.” Prove you’re worthy of confidence. "If we de­velop the habit of thinking of the other fellow’sinterests as well as our own. we automatically begin to say and do the things which build soundconfidence.” ;Watch unguarded momehts. The office party drunk and dirty story experts are examples.This is sound, practical stuff.

The Government at Paris has pro­ mulgated a law preventing the issuing of all pub­ lication* that "present in a favorable light ban­ ditry, lying, theft idleness, cowardice, hate, de­ bauchery, or anything else criminal or demoraliz­ ing.” The law is /he culmination to a nation-wide campaign against the importation of American comics. Judges of what is to be banned will be a com­ mittee of officials, magistrates, parents and guar­ dians. Children have a right—indeed, they require the education, fun, laughter and entertainment of fairy story, comedy and amusing fancy—but they must be shielded from crime. No doubt there will ^be some bootlegging in crime comics, but, all in all, It is wise legislation. We do not-feed poison or The Small Town ' .

There was a community interest Co-operation an<J. a democracy of spirit were al­ways alive. People travelled and came back withideas that were distributed. Sunday was a day of worship and the many churches were filled withpeople eager to gain spiritual sustenance.The small town, with its weekly newspaper, is the backbone of every country,'—with a goodlyportion of a country’s great men and women were reared in the small town. Most came from humble origin.

An English authoresswhose books are very much off thebeaten track is I. Compton-Burnett and after many years of writing sheis only now coming into her own inAmerica. Her work is represented for the first time in the library bytwo novels which are not her latestbut have recently been reprinted, More Women Than Men and Menand Wives. If you are looking forsomething different, try these.Prominent among the new non­fiction books are John Gunther’sBehind the Curtain, an account of the present condition of the Balkancountries, Faith and History by Re­ inhold Neibuhr and readers of Lc-comte due Nouy’s Human Destinywill welcome his The Road To Rea­son. If you like reading literarycriticism. Poets and Story-Tellersby David Cecil contains excellent essays on such writers as Jane Aus­ten, Virginia Woolf and E. M. For­ster by one of the most discern­ing of contemporary English critics.And, of course, there are somemystery stories too. Joseph Shear­ ing’s Mignonette. George H. Coxe’sThe Hollow Needle, Frances Crane sBlack Cypress, Peter Cheyney’s Dark Hero, Agatha Christie’sCrooked House and a tome of shortstories designed to introduce you to Fifty Famous Detectives of Fiction. Temporarily sheltered at the lib­rary are some original Canadianpaintings, part of the collection of Mr. Tom Lee. There are the famousTom Thompson’s Seal Rock, Geor­gian Bay and a harbour scene byGordon Payne who is very wellknown locally, along with others byArthur Hemlin. Isabel Broomfieldand Maurice Culen. They are all worth going to see. PUTNAMBy Mr*. Jack IrwinMr*. Archie Cornwell spent thepast week with her daughter and sou-in-law, Mr. and and Mr*.

Letter To the Editor Dear Sir: This is just a letter of information,print what you like of it, and is con­cerned with the article in last week’s edition about Pat Mahoney, and theHas Beens, and the Shop softball.The Morrow Shop League, whichconsisted of three teams last year,organized again this year and includeda team from the Machine Co. A dia­mond was made on the Williamsonproperty, Wonham S*. N., because itis too expensive to play on PrincessElizabeth grounds. Each player pays 26c per week to pay expenses and forthe banquet etc. The Machine Co.then built a diamond behind the Shop and entered two more teams, makingit a six-team league. Next year weexpect to have New Idea and several others in the league. The brand ofball is good and in most cases betterthan the town league ball. Many oldplayers have turned out and the lea­gue is fairly even. We don’t get anycrowds but the boys have a lot of fun.At the present time the Handmacs and the finishers are tied for firstplace—5 wins and 1 loss; Automaticsare third—4 and 2; Whiz Bangs, arefourth with—3 and 3; the Wowibin-den—1 and 6; and the Ha* Beensliving up to their name —0 and 6.Games are played every Monday andTuesday.C.

This map, kindly sent to The Tribune by Leonard G.Bradley, of Detroit, shows the course over which*Harold Wilson and his Miss Canada IV will race three U.S. speed­boats tomorrow and Saturday for the Harmsworth trophy, emblematic of the world’s speedboat supremacy. Thecourse is seven nautical miles and each heat is six times Discover Aborigines Lived Near Harrietsville Area Harrietsville—Evidence has beenfound at Lake Whittaker, in North Dorchester, that aborigines hadcamps on its shores, thousands ofyears ago, before pottery was in use.Crude core tools and flint coreshave been found in three differentlocations. Later groups of Indians appear to have avoided campingimmediately around the lake, pre­ferring campaigning grounds a mile more away from the lake.This interesting information isadvanced by Thomas E. Lee, whois heading up the National Museum archaeological survey party of PortBruce.Mr. Lee said the survey conduct­ ed around Port Bruce and Aylmerhas produced similar material, butin no instance have the depositsgone below plow depth. “However, through the the kind­ness and assistance of Colin Staf­ford, the C.C.F.__candidate in therecent federal ' election in Elgin,Gordon White of Springwater, andothers, several important Indian sites of more recent date have beendiscovered," Mr. Lee reported. “Ma­terials from those sites will be ana­ lyzed and then sent to the NationalMuseum at Ottawa." The archaeologists moved ___the district north of Springfield last Monday setting up their head­quarters tent on the shore of LakeWhittaker, about two miles east of Harrietsville. Traces of former In­dian earthwork fortifications havebeen examined and half a dozen skeletons have been recovered. Thearchaeologists explored in a smallwoods at the rear . of the Smithfarm, off the Sth Concession of North Dorchester.Valued assistance has been givenby Alonzo Jackion, born on the Harrietsville farm where he stilllives, 92 years ago. W. Scoffin, aged85; and George Johnson of the Lake Whittaker area. Mr. Jackson showed the archae­ologists the remains of an ancientIndian walled fort or earthworks on his farm where many archaelogicaldiggings have been made in the pastIt differs from the famed Southwold Earthworks on the Southwold-Dun-wich Townline Road, near Port Tal­bot, in that it was not a double­walled fort. Mr. Jackson said that as a young man he helped cutmaple trees that had grown up inthe ancient earthworks with trunks three feet in diameter, evidence ofthe age of the old fort. See Gilbert Very Caustic Re Modern Music Trend Some thousands of years ago a i very wise man said that “when the imodes of music change, the funds- ]mental laws of the state change with <them.” I suppose music like the < rest of the arts, is always changing, tbut as a rule, the change is so tgradual that one person in a life- j time is little able to notice it. That shasn’t been true of this century, for ithe change has been too challenging. There always has to be an innova- itor, of course, but it seems to me 1that the time is more likely to make < the innovator than he the time, iThat is he reflects the time in which <he lives rather than causes the < change. ] Someone once said that he cared 1 not who made the laws so long as 1 he made the songs of a nation. But 1 as he lived long before the era of <jazz and modern cacophony his songs would- surely be very differentfrom those so often moaned out bythe radio. Previous to this century music made its appeal to all minds,lay or professional, unless a personwere tone deaf..It entered into his moods Or his moods became attunedto the music. It was harmonious andtuneful, and that whether it was gay or sad. Verdi's operas, tragicor lighthearted, were full of airs ;anyone could sing or hum, and did sing and hum wherever they were iheard. A discordance was seldom ;heard, and then only to accent some i discordance in the plot. It was not ■something weaving its way through'the warf qnd woof of the theme to ,set nerves jangling, as do so many of the modem works. The Strauss’, ;father and son, were both "makersof sweet music. The lilt and swing of the music of the younger Straussparticularly set the whole worlddancing. People were as unable to sit still while his music enthralledthem as were the children the PiedPiper lured to follow him. But while the fabled music of the Piperbrought tragedy to its hearers, theStrauss music brought gaiety and the joie di vivre that was symtom-atic of that generation. Victor Herbert, some years be­fore he died, felt that an end of an era had come. After writing histuneful music for years he came to-the conclusion that people no longer wanted his brand of sweet and sen­timental musical fare. A new voguehad sprung up; the age of disson­ ance had begun. Fortunately for usthere were still those who loved hismusic and kept it alive to satisfythe many who enjoy a recognizable | air. V/L-lwould have made of the modern trend is problematic. Gilbert wouldprobably have had some causticthings to say in verse. He'd havemade delicious fun of our strangeheathenish teste in the inharmoniousjungle rhythm. But isn't that sameunorthodox rhythm and that liking for vagueness and dissonancemerely the reflection of our times?Are not the * modernists among themusic makers simply setting down intheir own medium the feeling ofin wich they live? Is it. really strange that when all minds are disturbed, knowingpeace even when actual warceased, that the music should disturbing; that it should seem tohave no idea where it is going, andthat while it wanders disconsolately and without evident aim, it shouldshout and scream and occasionallymake lunatic noises? Well, that's how it appears to meand I love music, but music. Eachto his own taste, I suppose, but to one brought up to think music wassomething to cheer and soothe andelevate, modern dissonance is a de­ cadence, a reflection of the timesperhaps even if Plato did seem to putthe car before the horse and believe that a change in the mode of musicbrought about a change in the lawsof the state. ■ around the course. The excellent spot arranged for Inger­ soll supporters to view the race Saturday is indicated by the big X top centre of the map. It is directly across from the start-and-finish line. It is expected 2,000,000 people will jam the area all along the course to see the races. All of us at sometime or otherhave no doubt read about the fam­ous “DINAH" of the Comic Strip Ozark Ike. We feel she is strictlyout of the picture as far as Ingersollis concerned. The reason being that"Patsy Buckthorpe”, * well-knownIngersoll lass, has outdone “Dianah”by great odds. Patsy did not stop at being BatGirl, she can fill any spot on the infield very well, according to Man­ager Mary Simpson. Pat plays verywell at shortshop aid is a real asset to the otherwise all-boy team. ThePee-Wee league in which she playedthis season does not provide any spectacular ball games, but it cer­tainly does give the kids an insidetrack on the game, preparing them for what lies ahead in the fields ofbasebalL Pat not only stands out at base­ ball, but is also an ardent riderand swimmer. We think that Pat de­ serves a lot of credit for keen inter­est in the game and hope to see herstay with it. It could really proveinteresting in a few years to see Patperforming on he local diamond at Victoria Park. We might also put in X.w ord for “Unckle Huckle” Armstrong who we might say is doing very well forhimself as well as his teams, and we take the liberty to mention them,Woodstock Athletics, Walker's Frig- idaires, Legion Zone team andStones’ Nationals. This is a credit forany person when they play equally as well for each team as Huck does. Talking baseball brings to ourminds that the local Juveniles who are doing well to dat# begin theirplayoffs Friday of this week at Vic- oria Park. We learn from ManagerHam Gosse that this team is also lacking crowd attendance and wethink it would be a good idea forthe “Powers that be” of this teamand the local softball league get to­ gether on their scheduled gamesand work this out so each group will derive some benefit from the crowds* generous contributions. Bruno, Teddy Duck As 12-Ton Truck Crashes Home LOCAL JUVENILES NOW IN PLAYOFFS Both Elmer Cunningham andBruno, and particularly Bruno—are getting rather tired of it al).The other night Bruno and hisnew playmate, Teddy, were playingaway contentedly at their Bell St home, when suddenly there was aterrific crash, and half their cage was wiped out And that half in­cluded their bath tub, which is nojoke in this hot weather, be one man or beastHappily Bruno and Teddy wereat the other end, as 12 tons Iftractor-trailer and load slipped itsbrakes and went roaring through, ending up naif in the old barn foun­dation and half out The driver,Robert McFadden, was down at the bear cage when someone shouted,and he saw his own truck heading for him.He ducked and the bears cringed.This is the second escape forBruno. Once he was wandering around on his chain, when anothertransport broke loose and went be­tween him and the tree to whichhe was attached. The chain snapped and Bruno was up the tree in awink.On eight or nine occasions truckshave got loose at Cunningham’s and run into posts, trees and walls, notto mention bears, Bruno and Teddy say they’d much rather have thepeace and quiet of the wilderness Youth’s Trousers Beat Him Home We’ve heard of people coming home in a barrel, but never beforeof someone returning from a week­ end with naught but his bathing trunks. It happened to a young Ingersoll man-about-town, who shall be nameless. It seems he accompan­ ied a party of other young-men-about town to Graud Bend. Theothers were anxious to come back home before he was—so the storygoes—so they did; bringing all theyoung man’s clothing. They reported to the young man’s family, said:"here are so-and-so’s trousers—he’ll be home later." He did get home later—his trunks his onlygarb, and hie language nothing towrite home about Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Juvenile Baseball Club head into the Inter­County Playoffs Friday night atVictoria Park at 6.15, when they take on the Aylmer Optimist nine.

That big banner over the inter­section of Thames and Charles streets,“Home of Miss Canada IV—Harms­worth challenger,” is up there throughthe imagination, energy and co-opera­ tion of several groups. The Kiwanisthought of it; the town agreed to payfor it; the police said it was okay to put it up, and the Public UtilitiesCommission kindly did so. As a result of a suggestion from TheTribune, the Canadian Red Ensign, aswell as the Union Jack, will be flying at Detroit during the Harmsworthraces. Eddie Cornell, “Your Home TownEditor,” who is heard over CHLO, St.Thomas, every Sunday with news fromthe various weekly newspapers, may be joining the Ingersoll contingent tothe races Saturday. He wrote TheTribune he'd been hearing so much about the,races, “I rather got the urgeto go to Detroit myself and see them.” Walter Leaper, a boating man him-iself, saw the U.S. Harmsworth se­lection trials at Detroit last Satur­day and he figures Miss Canada IVwill take the U.S* team, providingthe Wilson jinx vanishes.

Stanley Dollar. Jr.’s California boat, “Skip-a- Long’’, which averaged on the 14 nautical-mile trial run 94.288 M.P.H. Miss Canada Fastest “Such Crust," one of the finest theU. S. has to offer, put her best footforward, but still failed to attain the speed reported by Harold Wilson and“Miss Canada IV," of in axcess of 119.009 MPH.Wilson piloted his new Ingersollpowerboat to over 119 to beat theformer world Gold Cup class record established by another of his boats.Miss Canada III. However, somesources unofficially estimate the Wil­son boat has topped 140 MPH. Country Vs. Country The Harmsworth race is not, as some think, boat against boat, butrather is a race of counttry againstcountry. One country, in order to take the trophy, must win the racetwo times with any one of the boats from that country.Last Saturday trials were held onthe Detroit nver, to select the U. S.team of three boats to race againstthe lone Canadian challenger.Previously it had been thoughtCount Achille Castoldi, Milan, Italy, would enter, but he cabled he will beunable to compete. Speculating on what may happennext Friday and Saturday, it appearsnow that Wilson has a slightly greater advantage over his American com­petitors.Before the U. S. trial runs, a boatcalled "My Sweetie," Allison-powered with a V-type. hull, was the favorite,after “Wild Bill” Cantrell tramped the throttle to take this year’s GoldCup victory.But since Gold Cup, this' U.S. favorite has been purchased byHorace Dodge, and is now being driven by Dodge. L.trials. Dodge failed hopelessly with atrial average of 87.661 MPH.Dodge said, following the trial, that he had forgotten about his fuelmixture control, and because the mix­ ture was lean, had lost revolutionsand power. "Wild Bill" Cantrell Cantrell, who was piloting the boat before Dodge bought it, is consideredone of the leading American drivers. He drives race cars at Indianapolis,in the 500-mile classic, he is a dintrack and midget car man, and he knows powerboat racing.Cantrell hns. in fact, earned hisnickname, “Wild Bill." If there's an extra ounce-pressure of power in aboat, Cantrell finds a way of using itDodge said he would have Cantrell drive another of his power boats,Lotus II., but after a warm-up, it wasdecided this boat is useless.So, unless Cantrell is brought in tndrive My Sweetie at the last minute,chances of the boat doing as well as she did in previous races is slim..“My Sweetie” was Wilson’s nearest contender.The Wilsons have another decidedadvanta—e in their favor. Designer Doug Van Patten executed boat de­signing art when he put the Canadian boat’s lines on paper.Miss Canada IV — as does MissCanada III — rides infinitely cleaner,and smoother on water at high speedsthan anything the U.S. has yet pro­ duced. on the Detroit River.None of the U.S. boats have theability to take turns that the Miss Canada series has. None of the U.S.engines sound quite as well as Miss Canada IV’s Griffon. None of theYanks have yet been able to producea boat quite as stable as the Wilsonboat.But U.S. boats have all been timetested on racing courses. U.S. owners have had the opportunity, for the | Bpclll, Wlc wpast year at least, in all cases, to | jra Harris,“work over” their boats. j«- »» - Secret to Yanks _____„ ______ U.S. powerboat people have never Mrs. Rert Bell-seen Miss Canada IV perform, with, ..Mr. and Mrs. R H°2;' a*-"” , Ss»’grns L • BURNS PRODUCTS • SPORK 4 6c SPEEF 3 7c Weiners & Beans 2 7c CAMPFIRE SAUSAGE 51c V25 T lc I216 \ r<O * 1 ^U ° \ 25° I’’«• ^9°' 19°W« OxxxptUnal Value.!

JULY 28, 1949Learn To Swim At The Pool May Save Your Life, Other’s Everyone a swimmer -every swim­ mer a life-saver ti the watchword of• good swimming program. TheY.M.C.A. ha* carried this maxim for a century or more.A person who has no knowledgeof or skill in Life-Saving shouldnever attempt a swimming rescue. You are simply placing your ownlife in danger without being ofpractical help to the one in trouble.Do not panic and jump in with the vain hope of being a hero. Stop andlook around!If you can find a rope, or any floating object such as a life pre­server, or board or an inner tube,throw it out to keep the person afloat while you summon help?If a boat is available take it androw out to the drowning person or if a life guard is available cal) himat once. You’ll be of more help andsave more lives if you stay cool andare practical in your approach. During this summer, as last year,life saving courses will be run at theWilson Memorial Pool. If you want to be good, take a course. It maymean not only the means of savingyour own life some day, but alsothat of another.A few simple hints on life saving may help you in an emergency some­ time; 1. Always approach a drowningperson from the rear if possible. Y«u will avoid his arms and raneffect B re«eue much more easily.2. If you see a person in trouble and must attempt a swimming res­cue, at least remove your coat andshoes—but do not sacrifice toomuch time. 3. If a perron is struggling vio­lently stay away from him and lethim exhaust his energies. A personis in no danger if he can still fight. Then attempt your rescue prefer­ably from the rear.4. Do not attempt to strike any person in attempting a rescue. Notonly is such a person almost totallyunconscious of pain but at the com­ pletion of the rescue it is difficultto determine whether unconscious­ness is the result of a blow ordrowning. 5. Don’t attempt artificial res­piration unless you know how to doit It can be more harmful thanbeneficial! Loosen the clothing and send for a doctor or lifeguard whilekeeping the subject warm by rub­ bing arms and legs, use of warmclothing and hot water bottles, etc.If you are experienced in artificial respiration don’t delay its applica­tion. Seconds mean life.In Life Saving the few secondstaken to look over the situation may well mean the difference be­tween saving a life and losing two(including your own.)

This same boat also seta U. S. speed record of 124.9 milesan hour, which still stands. It is anticipated that all sorts of —, ---record* will be broken in the 1949 fu,,: Im* broke in the *«'«>nd race running of the event, for while the ~ ‘ v n Harmsworth itself has been dormant, Gold Cup, Silver Cup and President'sCup races have brought about deve­lopment of a number of 100-mile-an-hour speedboats, and the know-howto build even faster ones. Henry J.Kaiser, the famed industrialist, whohopes to have a boat in the race, has built an all-aluminum craft, with asingle over-3,000 h.p. engine in it,for which a possible speed of 185 miles an hour is claimed. This is 44mile* an hour faster than the worldspeed record of 141.74 miles an hour established by Sir Malcolm Camp­bell in England in 1939. The Wilson’s are making no claims for their challenger, Miss Canada IV,but U.S. experts have put her in the“over 1*50 m.p.h.” class. She comesfrom qiate a famous family, her pre­ decessor. Miss Canada III, holding theofficial IGold Cup class speed recordof 119.09 miles an hour, and, unoff­ icially, a speed of 132 miles an hour.And while she used only 1,650 h.p. inher 25-foot length, the new Miss Canada, about one-third larger, ispowered by one 2,500-h.p. Rolls RoyceGriffon engine, one of the most pow­erful engines in the race. This enginepowers some of Britain’s newest air­craft, and to borrow one the Wilson's had to do some powerful wranglingat Ottawa and London, with bothgovernment and Harmsworth auth­orities. HAIR-RAISING SPILLS .... While for many years theseemed to be between Gar Wood andeveryone else, technically it is a racebetween countries. That is why theHarmsworth rules had to be amendedto permit Canada to make her chall­ enge. The conditions state the hull,engine and everything about the boatmust be made within the country making the challenge. Canada makesno engines of the standard neededfor a Harmsworth boat, and so per­ mission was asked to use an Englishengine. This was granted despitehowls from Gar Wood that this was taking the international aspect awayfrom the thrill-filled race. Each country is permitted to enterthree boat* to race as a team. The U.S- . will, but Canada and Italy, if sheenters, will rely on one boat. Thisgives the U.S. a big advantage rightat the start, because the first countryto win two heats will be the winner,and the U.S. has three boats to win two heats, while some mechanicaltrouble could mean the end for Can­ada’s single-boat hopes. The U. S. team is being selected,following speed trials, from amongfamous drivers and boats. There is R. Stanley Dollar, Jr., of San Fran­cisco, grandson of the famed steam­ship magnate. Captain Robert Dollar. Canadian-born band-leader Guy Lom­bardo, who owns some pretty hot boatsis expected to drive Mr. Kaiser’s boat, if it is selected. Horace E.Dodge of the great motor family has ■>built a boat for the event And there : are many other big racing names—D. Cameron Peck, Jack Schafer ofDetroit, Lou Fageol, Al Fallon, “Wild Bill” Cantrell and Danny Arena, awinner of the coveted Gold Cup trophy,considered by many second only tothe Harmsworth. Equally famed aresome of the boats, such as Such Crust,Miss Pepsi, So Long, Miss Great Lake* and Skip-a-Long. The fact that the U.S. boats would be driven as a team was stressed byArena. "Keeping the trophy is theimportant thing," he said, “and if by using a little teamwork we can keepit, I imagine that’s what we'll do.”The advantage of having more than one boat in the race was clearlyshown in 1931. when Kaye Dorr, withLord Wakefield's Miss England II, defeated Gar Wood in the first heatand seemed well on his way to return­ing the trophy to England, from where it had been 'taken, for the sec­ond time, back in 1920. More than 600,000—one of the lar­gest sporting crowds in history, tur­ned out to see what became the mostcontroversial race in the trophy’slong career. In the second heat, GarWood went across the starting linenine seconds ahead of time, and Miss England, which had been raised fromthe bottom of Lake Windermere andrebuilt after killing Sir Henry Se- grave, roared across also ahead ofthe gun. Both boats were disqualified,and a second boat, driven by Gar’s brother, George, loafed around thecourse like an excursion boat to keepthe plaque in the U.S. Kaye Don had,incidentally, hit a swell at the first turn and upset ” The whole history of the race,studded with such famous names as Betty Carstairs, Bert Hawker, KayeDon, Sir Malcoln] Campbell, SirHenry Segrave and Hubert-Scott Paine, is marked by hair-raising spillsand big victories, and even biggerheartbreaks. The trophy itself has had it* moments. In 1915, a zeppelinraid set fire to the Enchantress, floa­ting clubhouse of the Royal MotorYacht club, in which it was kept An official of the club braved the flamesto rescue the trophy, but only afterthe original teak base recording the names of its holders had been burnedaway. Gar Wood made its presentbase from the mahogany of his MissAmerica I, his first Harmsworth win­ ner. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN .... .. The' U. S. didn't take an interestin the trbphy, which is for boats of unlimited horse-power but limited toto a length of 40 feet, until 1907.Then E. J. Schroeder, of New Jersey,sent his Mias Dixie I to Southampton,‘ and won at 31.78 miles an hour. Upuntil then, France had won once andEngland three times.

Twenty years ago this summer Miss Betty Carstairs brought outfrom England one of the biggest rac­ing speedboats ever made, to continue the British effort to return the Har­msworth trophy to England. Thatsame summer, as Miss Carstairs was making her unsuccessful bid againstthe famed Gar Wood, young HaroldWilson was paying a first visit to Pt.Carling Muskoka. The papers werefull of Harmsworth, and so was Har­old, and his eyes were open for only jne thing—his first speedboat. When he saw ft, Harold, only 16then, jumped on the telephone to Ing­ersoll, and said: “Dad, there’s a ybvoaati uujpj uhecrier muwothhiceri *liik**>vess very imuwuvc.h...”Next week-end that 45-horsepowerSeabird was his, and seagulls scree­ ched in anguish and parents’ hairgrayed as- he roared about the lakeas though the Harmsworth were at stake.“Some day,” he said, “we’ll be inthe Harmsworth.”And' how. after 20 years of gradu­ ally moving from faster boat to fas­ter, building up his experience tohandle the ultimate in speedboats, he is in the Hcrmsworth. In fact it ishis challenge to the U.S. supremacyof nearly 30 years that has broughtabout the running for the first timein 16 years of the world’s speedboatclassic. But this time the 45 horses that powered his first boat have be­come a mighty 2,500 horses. LONG HELD BY U.S............................. While thousands of dollars havebeen spent by speedboat enthusiastsof Britain, the U.S., France and Italyin the chase for and defence of the 46-year old trophy, this is Canada’sfirst bid for the bronze plaque which,designed at a cost of $5,000, is emb­lematic of the world speedboat champ­ionship. E. A. Wilson and his driverson, Harold, had to fly to England to get the competition rules changed bothey could challenge the U.S. which,thanks mostly to the famed G*r Wood has virtually monopolized the Britishprize, successfully defended theirpossession nine times in a row until 1933, when the race last was run.While Gar Wood, “the gray fox,”won’t be in it this time, three of the U.S.’ fastest boats will. A co-challen-ger from Italy, Achille Castoldi, ofMilan, had planned to try his luck,but an accident to his boat has madehim a doubtful.entry.More than 2,060,000 people, inclu­ding President Truman, are expected to crowd the bridges, the rooftops, thehundreds of boats* and the shoresalong the Detroit river course as the starting gun sends the world’s fast­est speedboats after the famous pla­que July 29 and 30.The trophy for which men andwomen have risked .their lives, isofficially known as the British Inter­national Trophy for Motor Boats, but more popularly as the Harms­worth," from the name of the donor,late Lord Northcliffe, English news­ paper tycoon,, or Sir Alfred Harms­worth as he was known when he off­ered the plaque to the Royal Motor putting him out. In 1931, Kaye Doncame over with Miss England II, beat Wood in the first heat, setting a re­cord of 89.913 miles an hour whichhas never been beaten, then sank in the second heat, after being disquali­fied. Don and his men were tossedclear, unhurt In 1932, Lord Wakefield againchallenged, and sent Kaye Don backwith Miss England III, which had set a new record of 119.81 miles anhour some time before. Wood’s answerwas an eight-ton, four-engine boat developing an unheard-of 6,400 h.p.But after four laps of the first heat,Don developed throttle trouble andfinished well behind—on one engine.In the second heat, the 120 m.p.h.English boat collapsed after one lap,when a piston broke, and Wood wasstill champion. In 1933, Scott-Painepitted a 1400 h.p. boat against Wood’s 7,600-h.p. monster and, doing over 110miles in the straightaway, forcedWood to average 86.939 m.p.h. toonce again keep the trophy in the U.S. So the Wilson challenge will be the10th try since 1920 to wrest the famedplaque from Detroit. They, too, have spent thousands of dollars to do it,and the records show a fraction of asecond could nullify it all. Anything can happen over the 49-mile course,particularly when going well over100 miles an hour, as it is expected the winning boat will have to do. “We think we have a good boat,”says Harold, 36, and father of three, “and we hope we can bring the trophyback.” Harold, incidently, has never a Harmsworth. for Marine, Exterior, Interior, Furniture and all other United States Plywood of Canada Limited W.C.T.U.

Local racing experts agree that 1 Miss Canada IV may well win the blue ribbon speedboat classic and ' probably will post a new speed rec­ ord for the race if she does so. Certainly as we followed the 31- foot craft overhead in a 135-mile- an-hour aircraft, it seemed she was doing at least 130 mph. That's only 10 mph below Sir Malcolm Camp­ bell’s world speedboat record. Keep Speed Secret The plane had to nose down into a dive in order to catch up to the watercraft for the benefit of pho­ tographers. And if the blond, 199- pound Wilson was being at ail con­ sistent with his reputation for se­ crecy, he vjasn’t giving the boat all he could while there were prerace observers overhead. The only hope of taking the in­ ternational speedboat championship away from the United States this year rests on the whale-shaped Miss Canada IV when she races on the St Clair river Friday, Saturday, and (if a third (heat is necessary), Monday. Italy’s challenge from Achille Castoldi has been withdrawn. The Harmsworth Trophy races, inaugurated 48 years ago, are being run for the first time since 1933, when the Americans under Gar Wood repulsed a British challenge. The U.S.A. will be running three de­ fenders. There is no doubt almost everyone in Muskoka is discussing Miss Can­ ada IV and her chances of victory in the trophy challenge, and everyone is plugging for the silent and hard­ working Harold Wilson. ment of racing when Ernie's arrival forced her to divert her attention from boats to babies. It was Mrs, Wilson who disclosed that her husband “almost managed to forget about racing” during the enforced no-racing interval of the But one day, she said, they made the mistake of attending the annual Gull Lake regatta at Gravenhurst, and they found Harold Wilson’s ambition, to race in big-time speed­boat contests had not been dead, only dormant. “So we got into it again—or at least Harold did,” Lorna Wilson laughed, and she added: “I’m just as keen about it now as I ever was, even though my racing days over.” Wilson himself confirmed wife’s story, with a new angle. “Yes, I’d pretty well made up my mind not to race again,” he said. “But I guess it was probably my father who talked me into it most of his There’s no more determined race enthusiast anywhere than Ernest A. Wilson, president of the Ingersoll Machine and Tool Co., of Ingersoll. Once a bicycle racer himself, the elder Wilson is a sportsman down to the ground and a summer-Mus- kokan of many years’ standing. His island is a half-mile distant from his son’s. “Keep Out” signs, and ropes put at the boathouse in Gravenhurst to restrain the crowds of visitors and also, Wilson admits, are to protect Miss Canada herself, For it’s not thfe "spies” from the United States trying to ferret out Miss Canada's speed secrets that her owner fears. He is afraid of the bettors who may have a sinister in­ terest in putting her out of com­ mission. He and his family live quietly on the Muskoka Lake Island of Wawan- aissa—and on their private island there is a nine-year-old boy who can hardly contain himself with excitement as the day of the big race approaches. He’s Harold Wison’s son, Ernie, a husky freckle-faced fellow yearn­ ing for theiday when his father pro­nounces hi^> old enough to try his hand at speedboat racing and carry on the family tradition. For it is inevitable that Ernie is going to be a speedboat racer. His mother—Lorna Reid Wilson, daugh­ ter of Toronto's famous rugby coach, Tim Reid, and a great sports­ woman herself—was Harold Wil­ son's partner and riding mechanic for some years both before and after their marriage. Together they won many records back in the 1930's including tbe We’re Out To / Break Records Too !

Wilson and his com­ pany in which son Harold ig a vice- , president—that have financed the , Miss Canada IV, building her at Gravenhurst at Greavette Boats Ltd., and adapting the 2,600 horse­ power Rolls Royce Griffon aircraft engine to speedboat requirements. Apart from their personal interest in the sport itself, the Wilson’s reco­ gnize the promotion value of Miss Canada to their own firm. The nec­ essary conversions and refinements of the engine, loaned by the Rolls Royce company, have all been done at the Ingersoll plant Right now Harold Wilson and his riding mechanic, Charles Volker— who replaced Mrs. Wilson when she abdicated in 1939—are making test runs with two types of propeller, deciding which to install for the big races this week. % Wilson’s up to his .elbows inside the speedboat’s engine these days from morning to night, personally making adjustments. Only Wilson and Volker and three mechanics— including Jack Osborne, RoWk Royce technical representative—know that engine’s big secret. A Guarded Secret There’s little mystery about the Griffon engine or about the design of the craft itself, but the most closely guarded secret in the whole north qountry today is the special gear reduction box which Charlie Volker designed and which is the factor that's expected to give Miss Canada her extra winning margin of speed. Lorna Wilson—foot injury not­ withstanding—will be going along to see the race, but three disapp­ ointed children, Ernie, Launi and Marion, may have to stay behind in Muskoka and learn from the news­ papers the result of Canada’s bid for international speedboat racing honors. “The kids will probably kick up about it, but I’m afraid of polio,” their father said. DO ROARING TRADE IN LEMONADE income may go to a charitableeausa. Nab Girl, Only 8 For Stealing Bikes An eight-year-old Ingersoll girlwas apprehended by police during the week for stealing bicycles—three of them. According to Corp-Jack Callander, the little girl would go to the swimming pool, pick outone she liked, ride it for a while,then leave it wherever she happened to be. A good spanking is likely tobe her punishment. A new business located in Inger­ soll last week-end and did a roaring trade while it lasted. Founders were David and Joanne Morgan, 9 and 7 respectively, Jackie Dopglas, 9 and Anne Raynham, and the industry—lemonade. At 5 cents a gulp, theirtoy cash register rang merrilythrough the day, as signs, (madeby themselves), said: “Have some before the Ice melts," "No freedrinks,” etc. Chairs were supplied for those who wished to relax overtheir drinks. David devoted most ofhis time to washing glasses. Their MOSSLEY Bv Mr*.
