Olympic Athlete Club in a hair raising finish.After the event, Carrot confessed that he is not in the best of shape, this being the first outdoor meet for him this year.He ruthfully admitted that he would have to run the kinks and the fat off before doing any good times.This boy is preparing for the try outs of the Olympic games next year.If he was not in shape today he should be a real threat for any Olympic berth when he is ready.In the future, Jackie wil] run in the Caledonia games at Lachine and in the Invitation 220 yards at Molson stadium.As an added sidelight of a thrill packed afternoon, the 61st LAA 182 battery RCA (M) put on a gun drill with their 40mm anti-aircraft guns.All events stopped while the two gun crews put on a sparkling performance of simulated action against aircraft.In the high school events, V.Osborne of Verdun High School ran a bls tering 880 yards in 2 minutes 28 seconds, followed by R.B.Cohen of Cornwall, Ontario.AJ] in all the events were well run, all times were recorded.The games were wel handled by Legion members.The Ladies Auxiliary turned in a fine performance with their refreshment booths.Merck's tug of war team won the tug of war event by default with no opposition turning up.Comrade LLOYD TAYLOR, president of Branch 62, Canadian Legion checks with Bombardier BRIAN WILLIS at the starting time for the races.Bombardier Willis is operating a Walkie Talkie and is in constant contact with Legion officials at the recording tables.Le ry Tans 12 PAGES Jackie Carroli of Montreal did 19 feet 2 inches in the Broad Jump he also came first in the men\u2019s relay with 47.8 seconds.In the 440 this flashy runner made the time of 53.2 seconds.He is ir the process of getting into shape for future events and eventually hopes for a berth on the Olympic Team.NEW POLIO INJEC- \u201cTION DATES FOR BEAUHARNOIS Dr.Gaetan Gauthier, who is in charge of anti-polio vaccination\u2019 program in this area, reports that those children who received their injections in Beauharnois on the 9th and 11th of May will be able to receive the second one on the 23rd and 25th of May.The 3rd injections for this group wil] be given some time in December or January.In Valleyfield, Beauharnois and other places where Dr.Gauthier has been in charge, he reports that there have been no unfavourable reactions, He is perfectly satisfied with the results and wishes he had more vaccine to be able to meet the demand.Many children had to be turned down.Up to date 1151 injections have been given in this district, 646 in Valleyfield and 505 in Beauharnois and other places in Dr.Gauthier\u2019s area.Dr.Gauthier hopes that there will be more vaccine available in the fall or possibly next spring.FOR MORE SPORTS AND PICTURES SEE PAGES 9 and 10 THE SUN Bus Fare Decision In Three Weeks Mt is expected that the Quebec Transportation Board will give a decision within 3 weeks on the request of the Provincial Transport Company for the right to raise commuter bus fares by 30 per cent.For 2 days the board heard request and opposing arguments {rom towns North of Montreal] as to why the fares should not be raised.The board announced earlier that it was seeking more equitable bus passenger fares, based on a mileage system throughout the province.New Traffic Light For Beauharnois A great improvement has been brought about in the traffic situation on Ellice Street.A traffic warning light has been installed over the middle of the crossing Ellice and Beauce.For the traffic on Beauce Road a red stop light flashes on and of, while for cars traveling on Ellice, a yellow warning light tells drivers to watch out for traf- fie coming from Beauce Road.A definite step in the right direction.Beauharnois Blood Donors Clinic Successful Although the Red Cross Blood donors Clinic in Beau- harnois didn\u2019t reach its goal of 225 pints of blood, the result is still considered as good.186 pints of blood were given.This is 42 pints more than last year and 116 more than in 1953.On the closing day of the Clinic one of the Red Cross representatives from Montreal, Mr.Gaulin, was present.He expressed his satisfaction with the results and thanked the local committee, under the chairmanship of Mr.E.A.McLaughlin, and all the others who have co-operated in making the Beauharnois blood- donors campaign a success.Similar satisfaction was ex- presed by Mr.B.Calhoun, President of the Red Cross in Beauharnois.The committee itself wishes to thank Mrs.Louis Renaud and her helpers, Mrs.A.Dufour for providing entertainment at the piano; Mr.Nicholson of the Coca Cola company in Valleyfield who contributed ali the necessary soft drinks; the local industries and al others \u2014 especially the St.Clement Church and Canon Julien who made available the parish hall \u2014 for contributing to the success of this year\u2019s Red Cross blood-donors clinic.RESULTS IN VALLEYFIELD NOT SO GOOD The Red Cross appeal for blood donations last week was not nearly as successful as it should have been.Only 445 pints of blood were donated in the Valleyfield area, which compares unfavorably with the 600 pints which where given to the local hospital during last year.The appeal commenced with an official opening at 1.30 p.m.Monday, May 16th, by the Mayor, Mr.Louis Quevillon, at the Tougas Nicholson.Also present representing the hospital were three sisters and Rev.Gault.The acting vice-president ol the Red Cross, Jean Marc Clermont, was introduced by Mr.W.Shannon, president of the blood donor clinic.Mr.Shannon extends his appreciation to al] those who assisted in the campaign.IS YOUR LOCAL WEEKLY Ler + oe \u2014 \u201cServing the Districts of Valleyfield, Beauharnois and Chateauguay\u201d Published every Wednesday, at Beauharnois,

Beauharnois, Wednesday 25, 1955 | Editorial.| ~ THE PROBLEM OF HIGHWAY SAFETY Year after year thousands of words are spoken and wriden against traffic offenders and against those who, through carelessness and indifference for the lives and property of others, make driving along the highways of our fair land a seemingly dangerous and hazardous pastime.During the past week-end many lives were lost and the damage to cars was heavy.Now, no doubt, wherever possible, the guilty ones will be punished.We also know that the police are exercising extreme vigilance against what we like to call the highway \u201ccowboys.\u201d It is, however, a practical impossibility for the police to be everywhere at once along the thousands of miles of highway that span the province.Therefore, for our own safety and the safety of others, it is our duty to be continually alert and watchful when driving, especially at night and during the weekends, when the risk of accidents is the greatest.; The problem of highway safety is the subject of the first Canadian Conference on Highway Safety, taking place in Ottawa from the 24th till the 26th of May.This conference is being sponsored by the Good Roads Asociation and supporting national organizations.The conference has four objectives: ; : 1.Focus attention on the vital importance of highway safety.2.Exchange of views on ways of reducing the wastage of human life and resources on the roads and streets of the nation.3.Formulate recommendations for a program of action.4.Consider a permanent Canadian highway safety organization.: Some 3,000 persons were killed last year on Canadian roads, tens of thousands were injured, more than $100 million of property was destroyed.In the past quarter century more than 42,700 people were killed in highways accidents.You may not have been touched by highway tragedy yourself, but you could have been and can be.At the current rate, no one in Canada will be immune during his lifetime from this 20th century scourge.Safety is an individual matter.It begins with you.The most effective group safety action is taken by the community.highway driving if we ourselves, as part of the comunity, don\u2019t All the conferences and talking won\u2019t help reduce the hazards of participate inthe efforts to make highway driving safer and give up the idea of \u201cit can\u2019t happen to us.\u201d SUBSCRIBE NOW

the alert editor of a live weekly is that he cannot sit in his office waiting for news to come to im.À news story does not just happen, It depends .upon organizations of sources, on looking ahead so as to anticipate coming events, on preparing questions that will bring out the covert implications, on planning the routine connected with publication so that fitting attention may be given some unexpected event near deadline.He is a wise editor who recognizes and caters to the everyday interests of his readers in addition to satisfying their curiosity about unexpected happenings and \u201cbig\u201d local events.\u2018 For example, he will give space and deserved prominence to regulations designed to prevent loss of life, to articles he believes will contribute to the betterment of living conditions and the spread of happiness.He will not ignore so common place a thing as the weather, but he Will try to make it interesting by informing his readers authoritatively about its current signifigance in their farming and business prospects: what has the state of the weather during the past week meant to the economy of the community.In Canada, \u201cnews\u201d is still largely local or regional in character.We inhabit half a continent, and we cannot pos sibly keep track of everything that is happening every where in it.Our interest in what is near and our preoccupation with what is familiar is not parochialism, but a necessity imposed upon by con ditions.The weekly newspaper, .i£ the editor is a lively, inquisitive person, ministers ideally to our needs.Woodlands Resident Dies Suddenly D.B.Burdon, well known resident of Lower Woodlands and vicinity for many years, died on Friday, May 13th, at St.Joseph's Hospital in La chine in his 60th year.Mr.Burdon was born in Maple Grove and belonged to one of the oldest families of this district.He also lived for many years in Hudson and Valois.where he was very well known.In Valois he was active in church and Masonic af fairs.Mr.Burdon and his family moved to Woodlands in 1947 and soon became active in com: munity affairs.He served on the Ville de Lery Council for several years and was one of the first members of the Ville de Yery Protestant School Board.For over 40 years he was associated with the Sun Life Assurance Company, where he held a position of responsibility.During the first World War he served with the Canadian Army in France A kind and genial man he will be very much missed by his friends and neighbours.He is survived by his wife, the former Mildred Simpson, 5 sons and one daughter.The funeral took place at the Collins Chapel on Sherbrooke St.in Montreal.He was buried at Lakeview Cemetery, Pointe Claire.WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS People in small communities whether rural or suburban.have keen interest in whatever they see that is out of the ordinary, The commuter walking home from the train wants to know why the men are digging up the street; he is interested in when the new school will be opened, how long it wil] provide necessary accommodation and on what facts and speculation the council bases its judgment; he is curious about every change in his neighbourhood, whether it is big or little.There is, in fact, no incident so trifling that in the hands of a competent weekly newspaper reporter, may not be developed into a news story \u2014 and frequently such stories make better reading than much of the \u201cbig\u201d news crowding upon people through other media.Newspaper textbooks have a lot to say about the value of \u201chuman interest\u201d in reporting and editing.The big daily newspaper has to work harder to print human interest stories than does the weekly, for an obvious reason: the thousands who read the daily paper are not interested in Thomas Jones himself, but in the pie.turesque or tragic thing that has befallen Mr.Jones; the hundreds who read the rural or suburban weekly paper are interested in Mr.Jones himself, because they know him.What happened to Mr.Jones need not be urgent, but only something that affected him pleasurably or adversely, o1 something that might conceivably have happened to the reader.Editors of weekly newspapers could, if their time permitted, add to the value of their papers by writing occasional expository articles dealing with issues of locol importance.Such exercise would too, be a relief for the editor because it would allow him to sink his teeth into something bigger than routine.An example might be the issue of whether or not to add chemicals to the water supply: the weekly editor who clarified such a subject, telling his readers what the points are upon which arguments are based, would be highly appreciated.The Province of Quebec Safely League Says!.1.Week-end trips are safer when begun in the morning and after a good night\u2019s rest.If a driver has worked hara all day, he will be wise to set out on his journey next Saturday morning, rather than Friday evening.2.A stop for coffee or other alertness beverage every 100 miles is a practice followed by many careful drivers.Others carry a thermos ot coffee for driving through district where restaurants scarce.3.The impulse to pass the car ahead may become a fatal one.The achievement of keeping one\u2019s passengers alive is far worthier than that of speeding past other vehicles.4.Following a coffee stop at night, be sure to switch headlights back on before swinging back to the highway.5.Don\u2019t wear colored glasses at night.While they reduce headlight glare, they reduce the driver's vision, too.r 6.When the highway za through a community, throfile down to a speed even less than that required by law.The coming week-ends will see many children on the side walks from which some will dash out to play on the streets.7.At no time during next week-end\u2019s driving should one forget the Golden Rule.Give the other fellow the right of way.YOUR CHURCHES Valleyfield St.Mark\u2019s Anglican Chureh, Gault Avenue.Reverend
