June 21, 1879 (hree men, Charles Page, a professor Grimley and an American newsman, James Creelman, took off in their balloon from the Shamrock lacrosse grounds in Westmount, eventually landing safely near St.Hyacinthe.Balloon ascensions were fairly common, gas being used from city mains to fill them.The first heavier-than-air machine over Montreal was a French Bleriot tthe type which was first lo fly the English Channel} piloted by Count Jacques de Lesseps, who took it off from Lakeside, near Pointe Claire, in July, 1910.It is recorded that newsmen following his progress in an automobile had to stop from lime to time to let the aircraft catch up.First official mail flight in Canada was in 1919 from Montreal to Toronto.If was around 1924 or after that aviation had progressed to the point where it was considered necessary for Montreal to have an official airport, and St.Hubert was chosen as the site.k * * AND MORE: In 1929 Colonial Airways (which became part of Eastern in 1956) started a passenger service between Montreal and New York.On July 31, 1930 the famous British dirigible R-100 moored at St.Hubert at a mast specially erected for the occasion.In 1927 TCA was formed and a regular passenger service was started from Montreal.In 1940, after the war had started, Ferry Command came into being to deliver American aircraft to Britain, Dorval was completed in 1941 for this purpose, and like many government-run things, a switch took place in 1945.Dorval was military, so DOT took it over as a civil operation.St.Hubert was civil, so it was handed to the military.sk :k * ANYTHING FOR A LAUGH: Eastern Airlines got the brilliant idea last week to run the first flight from the new Dorval terminal, and to make sure it was the first they scheduled it for 2 a.m.Dec.1, called it a champagne Night and invited a few (62) friends.Needless to say, even at thal hour of the morning, the plane was full.However, aside from other benefits, the trip re-affirmed my faith in the Electra as we climbed out rapidly to 12,000 feet for a fast trip to Massena and back.The tour through the new terminal was impressive, especially when one realizes that here, at last, you can have clbow room.sk sk :k SPEAKING OF ELECTRA: The man responsible for keeping the Electra flying even at reduced airspeeds following a series of crashes, Gen.Quaeseda, will quit as head of the FAA in Washington to take over the franchise of the Washington Senators baseball team.Although he is undoubtedly quite competent, 1 can think -of a lot of people who will not be sorry to see him get out of aviation, especially a few pilots who are nearing the compulsory retirement age.Anyway, Lockheed have three modified Electras on the line undergoing rugged tests, and if they prove successful, all Electras will get the same treatment so their speed can be upped to 325 knots plus.3} ik pa SO WE HEAR: Many seaplane operators still have their craft on the river, but are getting up early these mornings to check with the weather.\u2018Paul Belanger of MFC has taken on the task of converting a Cessna 180 from floats to wheels for the winter, and he hopes to gel it off the back river and into St.Jovite before the freeze comes.Good Juck! Montreal Flying Club's new social (and everything else) committee considering staging a fly-in south of the border late in January or carly in February.Possible site: Saranac Lake in New York.Ed Gates wants to have the event take the form of an exercise in practical dead reckoning navigation and, let's face it, we all need the practice.ROOFING & SIDING &% ET ds LT en P UFR RL) \u2014 2x\" ® Bonded Roofing e Sheet Metal © Asbestos & Metal Siding for Commercial \u2014 Industrial Residential Maintenance and Repairs on All Types of Buildings Leo Falardeau PLUMBING © HEATING © ROOFING SHEET METAL WORK @ GAS HEATERS 3955 St.James Street West Inspection & Estimates om Request WE.5-2595 WE.3-2432 Obituary J.R.FENWICK A funeral service was held Wednesday in Dominion - Douglas United Church for James Reid Fen- wick, retired veteran employee of the Northern Electric Co., Ltd., who died Monday at his home, 697 Victoria avenue, Westmount, He was 63.Born in Toronto, Mr.Fenwick was a graduate electrical engineer of the University of Toronto.He came to Montreal in 1922 and joined the Northern Electric Company with which he was associated until his retirement last summer.He was interested in educational and municipal matters and was for years on the Westmount School Board.He was board chairman in 1957.He was also a past president of the Westmount Municipal Association; a past president of the Val Morin Golf Club, and for many years was an elder of Dom- inion-Douglas United Church.During World War 1, he served with the Royal Canadian Navy.He is survived by his wife, the former Norah Tremble; three sons, Edward T.(Ted), Donald R.(Don), and Dr.John D.(Jack), and two grandchildren, all of Montreal; a brother, Alan Fenwick, of Toronto, and a sister, Dorothy (Mrs.Bruce MacNeill), also of Toronto.Gifts sought for forgotten mentally ill The 1960 Christmas Gift Campaign for the \u2018\u2018forgotten\u2019\u2019 mental patient was launched by the Quebec Division of the Canadian Mental Health Association at the offices of its President, Lt.Col.S.C.Holland under the co-chairmanship of two well known television and radio personalities, Fred Hill and Mrs.Nicole Germain.The campaign is not a fund raising appeal but a request for gifts of clothing, toileteries, toys and smoking supplies to be give.through the Association to twenty mental institutions throughout the Province.It is part of the national appeal for Christmas gifts under the chairmanship of Lady Eaton.The shocking fact that 15,000 of the 25,000 hospitalized mental patients in this Province have been completely forgotten by their parents and friends after months or years in an institution snurred the Association to organize this appeal for gifts.Through the generous help of industry, individuals and all types of social and welfare organizations, 16,000 gifts were obtained and distributed last year.The campaigr\u2019s objective is twofold: to clucate the public at large, and help it realize the enormous mental health problem which confronts it, and to help the mental patient through a remembrance at Christmas, Many people believe that a mental patient cannot appreciate such a gift.This is far from true.The one thing the patient needs is to feel that he 1s still part of the community and that he is not a cypher who has been forgotten by his friends and by his community.Doctors all agree that such recognition is of prime importance in the treatment and final rehabilitation of a person struck by this terrible disease.A gift for a forgotten mental patient may be sent to Quebec Division, Canadian Mental Health Association, 5757 Decelles avenue, Montreal 26.Young people offer pageant Next Sunday in Dominion-Doug- las Church at 4 p.m.the Annual Christmas Pagcant will be presented.This Pageant is prepared by the Teen-Age Group, assisted by a great number of people.There will be an Angels\u2019 Choir.Next Sunday, White Gifts will be received for Christmas giving elsewhere, Unity Boys Club Yule parties set December 17, 23 By MAURICE MARIASINE Nine McGill University students from the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity spent the day at the Unity Boys\u2019 Club last Saturday as part of their Community Services Day project.The day was spent inside and outside of the Clubhouse \u2014 windows were washed, floors were polished and the spacious lawn was raked and cleaned.We would like to compliment the students and their capable supervisor, who not only did an excellent job, but also showed a keen sense of community responsibilities.SPECIAL EVENTS It was announced this week that the Unity Boys\u2019 Club will hold their annual Christmas Parties on Saturday, December 17, for the younger set of the Club \u2014 for boys and girls under 12 years of age and also their younger brothers and sisters and on Friday, December 23, for all those 12 years of age and over.The youngsters will be treated with a variety of good things to eat, such as: ice cream, cup cakes, milk, candies and oranges and their program will consist of: movies (Christmas cartoons);
