CONSTRUCTIVE ACTION AT UST 

It may be that within the next few years an answer will 

be found to the baffling power vs fish controversy. Action of 

the B.C. Power Corporation in subsidizing research work is 

the first really constructive move made to solve the problem — 

at least on the part of interested industry, and ohe that perhaps 

may be followed by more corporations. 

The government fisheries department has been making 

experiments for some time but these have been on a somewhat 

limited scale. Even so there were some interesting and valuable 

thing.

The First Kyogle Girl Guide 

Company was formed in 

1927 and had 18 Guides at 

t'me of the February 

1953 floods in that area. 

. It was reported that the 

company met the morning 

after the flood to decide on a: 

course of action. Washintr 

seemed to be the first need 

the silt and filth littered 

homes. 

The district commissioner 

set the example by collecting 

washing from several 

homes, taking it to the central 

school residence where 

there was plentv of tank 

water. Two Guides helped 

scrub and clean the 

clothes sufficiently to proceed 

with the boiling, for 

everything was black. 

GUIDE TRAINING 

The Guides scrubbed, 

washed and cleaned for a 

week, carrying back the 

ironed clothes. People who 

received help from the Guides 

said how pleased they 

were with the Guides' woik 

'•ealiêd that it was their 

Guide training that fitted 

them to help wherever they 

saw a job to be done. 

Other Guides worked in 

groups of twos and threes, 

some scrubbing walls, taking 

messages back and forth, 

and minding young children.

ly and put the game on ice. Page 6 

Smithers got loose late in 

the game for another Vanderhoof 

goal but it was too little 

and too late. 

Sharpest player on the ice 

for Vanderhoof was Gabor, a 

newcomer who is lightning fast 

and an excellent stick-handler. 

He reminded Quesnel fans of 

stocky Al Camponi who played 

with Lumbermen a couple of 

season's back. 

Bears opened the scoring in 

the Sunday go when Smithers 

and Gordie Steele combined at 

11:05. Art Scully, who banged 

home three goals for Quesnel 

during the game, levelled it up 

at 18:51 and Grohukei sent 

'Roos ahead early in the second 

canto. 

Veteran Ken Silver got loose 

on one of his famous rushes to 

pull Bears even at the six minute 

mark and that was about 

the last time Vanderhoof was in 

the picture. 

Scully drilled home a brace 

of shots, getting his second goal 

at 13:26 and the third at 18:50 

to send the visitors into the final 

period with a 4-2 edge. 

Gordie Steele gave Vanderhoof 

fans a lift when he scooped 

in Gabor's pass early in the 

final period but a minute later 

Irv Follack made it 5-3 for Quesnel 

and when Ken Backman 

fired home a long one at 10:45 

the issue was settled. 

Quesnel drew three penalities 

in the Saturday game, one in 

earh period. Kuly, Backman 

and Keen all drawing minors. 

Evans was the only Vanderhoof 

player to warm the bench and 

he was banished in the third 

period. 

Backman and Scully got minors 

on Sunday with Ken Silver 

getting a Vanderhoof penalty 

in the second period. While Silver 

was off Scully got his second 

goal for Quesnel. 

Vanderhoof will be in Quesnel 

for two return games with 

Kangaroos this weekend, which 

will complete the home and

productions. 

Value of exports totalled |4,- 

530.000,000, up 12 percent, 

with no slackening in sight. 

Approximately 126.000 new 

homes were biiilt, 24,000- more 

than 1954. 

The past year's capital investment 

program, including 

the construction of new homes 

and factories, apparently would 

exceed the trade department 

mid-year prediction of $6,000,- 

000. Previous high was $5,- 

800,000,000 in 1953. 

TAX OUTS PREDICTED 

Tax cuts — Small ones this 

year and big ones in 1957 — 

were predicted in the capital as 

the nation's economy bloomed. 

Rising national wealth 

would mean more potential tax 

revenue for the government and, 

though, federal outlays also 

will rise, officials said there' 

likely will be room for some 

tax cuts in 1956-57. 

Canada's gross national product 

— value of goods and services 

produced — rose to an alltime 

high of 126,400,000,000. 

Authorities in Ottawa predicted 

It would continue upwards in 

1956, possibly to between $27,- 

000,000,000 and $28,000,000.- 

000. 

Canada's rising population 

means higher outlays for family 

allowances, old age pensions, 

health grants and other social 

programs. The central govern, 

ment also will make higher 

payments to the provinces under 

the federal-provincial tax 

rental agreements which call 

for higher rentals when production 

and population increase. 

However, the government is 

not likely to make any major 

tax reducJtionsi this year, fearing 

they could encourage inflation. 

, \ 

But big tax cuts are foreseen 

for 195 7, the year the nation 

will' likely have its jiext 

general election. Officials suggest 

the economic boom may 

taper off that year. 

If it does and pressure for 

goods is not so great, they suggest 

it may be an opportune 

time for large cuts which could 

again stimulate the economy 

and keep the boom going. ' 

NEW CIVIL DEFENCE PLANS 

Canada's eiril defence heads 

have put before the government 

plans for a 24-hour, coast-tocoast 

warning system to be used 

Jn case of attack on Canada. 

Plans for the new system, to 

cost about $200,000, have been 

placed before Health Minister 

Martin who is responsible for 

civil defence at the federal level. 

If he approves them, the 

treasiury board will be 'asked 

to approve a request for that 

sum to be made at the .session 

of parliament opening Jan. 10. 

A spokesman said there now 

is a cQjnniiinication system between 

head-quarters and various 

civil defence provincial 

centres but it is used mainly for 

administrative messages and is 

not manned 24 hours a day. 

The new system would connect 

all provincial civil defence 

controllers with headquarters 

and with air defence command 

of the RCAF at St. Hubert, 

Que., from which warning 

of an attack would be flashed. 

Operators would be hired to 

serve the new system 24 hours 

a day.

Cold weather made a 

tough job even tougher for 

crews laying a pipeline from 

the Sturgeon lake oilfield 

200 miles northeast of Ed- 

/monton to connect with the 

Trans-Mountain pipeline. 

Men who have worked on 

other lines said the country 

through which the $8,000.- 

000 line passes is as tough as 

any they have seen. Swamps 

alternate with dense timber. 

The cold makes the important 

welding job of the 

line particularly difficult. 

Metal expands unevenly in 

the sub-zero temperatures. 

Welders cannot move around 

like other workers and the 

large amount of heavy clothing 

they must wear hampers

15 seconds after Therres left

Whale Protein 

Expensive Finisher 

OTTAWA — A protein by-product 

of British Columbia's 

whaling industry appears,to be 

too expensive as a source of supplemental 

protein for finishing 

calves in Central British Columbia. 

D. E. Waldern of the 

Experimental Farm, Canada Department 

of Agriculture. Prince 

George, B.C., states that the 

utilization of hay, silage and 

grain produced on the farm is 

the best assurance of making 

the greatest profit on a feeder 

operation. 

Whale soluhles were compared 

with linseed meal In a feeding 

trial at Prince George during 

the" winter of 1954-55.' Both 

concentrates were incorporated 

in ground grain rations and were 

also compared with ground 

grain rations containing no ad 

ded protein. Each ration was 

fed to a group of Hereford 

steer calves along with hay 

and silage in an approximate 

ratio of one and one-half parts 

concentrate to one part roughage. 

At the start of the trial the 

calves weighed an average of 

366 pounds and were marketed 

at a weight of 8.36 pounds. The 

group receiving linseed meal 

reached 836 pounds almost one 

mouth earlier than the other 

two groups. There was no difference 

in dressing percentage 

of carcass between the three 

groups. 

As these results are based on 

one year's; feeding trials they 

cannot be considered conclusive. 

However, they do indicate 

that both linseed meal and 

whale solubles are too expensive 

as sources of supplemental 

protein for finishing calves in 

central British Columbia.

Spawning Grounds 

Built By Machine 

VANCOUVER — Artificial 

spanning grounds to improve 

Britisih Columbia's fishing industry 

have been advocated by 

an official of the Fishermen's 

Union. 

Hbmer Stevenson, union secretary, 

said in an interview 

that a recent experiment had 

demonstrated the value of such 

a plan. The British Columbia 

Electric company had built a 

dam on the Jone river near Chilliwack, 

ruining existing spawning 

grounds. 

The company's engineers then 

stepped in with bulldozers and 

created a new spawning ground. 

Now the fish are just as numerous 

as before. 

"Creiation of spawning 

grounds is cheaper than building 

fish hatcheries," h» said, 

"because once the spawning 

ground is miade, the fish can l>e 

expected to maintain it themselves". 

Slow-moving tributary streams 

would have to be cleared of 

debris, levelled, gravelled, and 

the flow of water would have 

to be maintained. 

Scores of natural spawning 

grounds were wrecked by recent 

floods and fishermen think 

the damage could be compensated 

for by creation of new eggiaying 

areas.

CAM ERA 

By MILT MacPHAIIi 

CAjNADIAN golf got a muchneeded 

shot in the arm recently 

when Toronto's Al Balding 

stroked his way to victory in 

the Sanford Open at Sanford, 

Pla. 

The victory meant more than 

a personal achievement for 

Balding. When the lanky shotmaker 

from Toronto's Credit 

Valley Club sank his final putt 

for victory it marked the first 

time a Canadian had won a major 

U.S. pro tournament. 

In prestige, Balding's win 

was perhaps greater than the 

victory scored by Sandy Somerville 

of London, Ont. back in 

the ]930's wbfen Sandy won the 

U.S. amateur title. 

Balding carved out his triumph 

over, most of the great U.S. 

pros, including Sam Snead, Gary 

Middlecoff, Porky Oliver and 

Mike Souchak. 

BEATS HOODOO 

He alo became the first Canadian 

to whip the tournament 

pressure which more than anything 

ele had beaten Canadians 

on the U.S. pro circuit. 

It's a fact that a potential 

star in any sport needs topflight 

competition to make him 

a star. The Sneads, Middlecoffs, 

Olivei's. Mangrums etc. are great 

because they play the year 

round in tough competition. 

* Balding, Vancouver's Stan 

Leonard and Jerry Ke&selring 

of Kitchener. Ont., are playing 

the U.S. pro circuit. Many Canadians 

before them tried but 

had to come home because they 

couldn't make enough money 

to continue. 

Balding admits he was ready 

to pack up and come home until 

be won first prize money 

of $2,400 in the Sanford 0pen» 

That gave the cash he needed 

to "-pt tn the Ivo Angeles Open 

which started Jan. 6.

and in some cases encouraging, 

cut-rate electrical wiring of 

the homes they are building, 

says a recent, article in the 

trade magazine Electrical Contractor 

of Canada. 

As one result, many electrical 

contractors are leaving the 

busines.si of wiring new homes. 

As another, and much more 

serious consequence, the .standard 

of electrical wiring in new 

home.'J is falling below what 

authorities in the electrical industry 

consider to be a practical 

minimum. 

The bome-ow|ier's contribution 

is negative, perhaps, but it 

is an important ftictor nonetheless. 

If we permit inadequate 

electrical work in our new 

homes for the sake of saving a 

vei'v few dollars, it doesn't really 

matter whether we do so 

i deliberately or out of ignorance. 

The effect is the same. 

We are encouraging builders 

to use inferior workmanship 

and maiterials. If ignorance is 

the reason, it is high time we 

learned a few basic truths and 

then made our demands known 

to the home-building industry. 

Whether we own our own 

homes, or live in them as tenants, 

we, as householders, have 

a deep and lasting interest in 

the adequacy of our electrical 

wiring. If it is true that many 

present electrical systems, once 

regarded as adequate are no 

longer sufficient to handle the 

requirements of our normal living 

in this electrical age, we 

Fireplaces Now 

Simple To Build 

LATEST gadget to aid the 

do-it-yourselfer is a form designed 

to take all the trouble 

out of building a fireplace. 

This new wrinkle is 

beinjT introduced by a Portland 

firm and consists of a 

kit containing a form which 

makes it easv for anyone to 

build a fireplace. 

The kitconsists of plans 

and a form around which 

the fireplace is built and, 

according to the manufacturers 

the job can be done 

in a weekend. Step by step 

directions for such things as 

the preparation of mortar 

are included in the directions. 

Rock, flagstone ot other 

material than brick may be 

used for construction. Provision 

is also made in the plans 

for inclusion of a damper 

and flue liner so that the 

fireplace will meet the strictest 

building requirements. 

Time and weather can't mar the 

perennial good looks of aluminum 

screen cloth. It gets star 

billing among builders and home 

owners both because it lasts so 

much longer and because it 

never stains or discolors surrounding 

woodwork. 

It is also the lowest-priced 

non-rusting insect screen on the 

market. And that adds point to 

the happy fact that Canada is 

the world's most efficient aluminum 

producer. And that fact, 

in turn, means that people who 

make aluminum screen and 

window frames, roofing and 

hardware for Canada's active 

building industry can do so at 

prices that saye a lot of people 

a lot of monej;. 

ALUMINUM COMPANY OF 

CANADA, LTD. (ALCAN) 

should demand a new standard 

of adequacy and laws to ensure 

that every builder meets 

it. 

Asi the editors of Electrical 

Contractor point out, if electrical 

use continues to increase, 

the wiring in new homes built 

today will soon become dangerously 

inadequate by any standards. 

We are paying a price for our 

apatl^y in every electrical fire 

that occurs in this country, and 

in every life lost through electrocution 

by an improperly installed 

electrical device. The 

situation is bad enough already 

— 70 per cent of a!l homes in 

Canada are inadequately wired 

today, according to a survey 

made recently. And the largest 

kinown cause of fire loss in 

1954 was faulty wiring. The 

bill was $10.3 millions. 

Surely these facts are startling 

enough,'without compounding 

the problem by perpetuating 

the very conditions we want to 

/ remove. The place to start is 

certainly with our-new homes if 

we ever hope to find a lasting 

remedy. 

Wax On Shovel 

Makes Job Easy 

F1X)0R WAX rubbed on a snow 

shovel takes a lot of the sting 

out of a job that seems to be 

v almost endless this winter. The 

wax prevents snow from sticking 

to the shovel, usually an annoying 

occurance which adds to 

the difficulties of an unpleasant 

job.

Million Homes Built Since War 

SOMETIME in 1956 the one 

miriionth home built in Canada 

since the war will be sold to its 

new, proud owners. With the 

house building boom showingno 

signs of slackening, interest 

in house design, • building contracts, 

legal details and moiigage 

arrangements is at a peak. 

But building a house is a 

business filled with snags and'' 

Don'f Let House 

Become The Boss 

A man's house is supposed to 

be his castle. But, too often, a 

house can turn on its owner 

and become a tyrant which 

rules his life, warns psychologist 

Dr. D. C. Williams in the 

January issue of Canadian Homes 

and Gardens. 

In the article, "Are you Henpecked 

by a House"?, Dr. Williams 

says that his experience 

as a psychologist has convinced 

him that "without careful 

thought and determination you 

• can become dominated by your 

house." 

He cites the case of a woman 

who turned her front room into 

such a beauty spot she and 

her husiband proudly show it off 

•to all their visitors then entertain 

them in the den. for in 

place of a. living room they 

now have a museum piece. Yet 

he groups people like this with 

the couple who lived in a home 

for twenty-five years where 

every time they went from hall 

to kitchen they had to turn 

sideways to squeeze past a 

small table jammed itno a narrow 

passage. The first couple 

beautified their house beyond 

usefulness, the second let 

themselves be browbeaten by 

an awkward house which could 

easily have been corrected. 

Dr. Williams says the best 

way to avoid being tyrannized 

by your house is to stand back 

and take a critical look at your 

attitude to it. "If you find you 

keep so busy fixing it up you 

never have time to enjoy it . . . 

or that you've crumpled in defeat 

its petty Inconveniences . . . 

it'si high time to ask "who's 

boss around here?" 

pitfalls for the layman. James 

A. Knight, writing in the January 

issue of Canadian Homes 

and Gardens, takes the pros"pective 

house builder through 

a step-by-step analysis of the 

difficulties. 

In the article. Is '56 the Year 

You'll Build?' the reader is 

shown "how to bring your 

dream house down to . earth 

without having it crush you." 

Choosing an architect or 

buying ready-made plans for a 

house is a crucial point in 

building and the article disciis*ses 

the procedure thoroughly. 

It gives suggestions on when to 

hire a lawyer to draw up the 

contract and what the contract 

should include. 

How much cash should a 

prospective builder have and 

how does he arrange a mortgage?

you can get and how

Terrace Man 

Wins Bursary 

A Terrace, B.C. student 

at ,the University of British 

Columbia is the winner 

of the first medical school 

bursary to be awarded by 

B.C. division, Canadian Cancer 

Society. 

It 

He is David A. Gillanders, 

third year student in the 

faculty of medicine. 

The bursary was set up 

at UBC by the Cancer Soiciety 

last year to help increase 

the number of doctors 

interested in the fight 

against cancer. 

The society, which maintains 

a three-point program 

of education, research and 

assistance to needy patients, 

has agreed to give the university 

$500 anually to be 

used as an informal loan 

fund. 

The bursary was set up in 

this fashion after consultation 

with university officials 

who said that this form of 

scholarship is finding increasing 

favor in academic 

circles. 

It has the advantage of 

building up the bursary 

over the years so that it can 

be given to many more stu 

dents. 


Million Homes 

much interest will you pay? 

These and many more questions 

which trouble the person 

building his home are answered 

in the article. 

"Before you build, be sure 

you know what you are doing 

or you may fall victim to the 

pitfalls that catch even the 

wariest house builders," the 

article warns. The author tells 

of a crack construction engineer 

who planned and built a 

house he estimated would cost 

him $30,000. "He had to pay 

$45,000 before he moved in," 

the story says, "This sort of 

thing happens every year to 

hundreds of amateurs with better 

alibis but less money. It can 

happen very easily to you if 

you don't know what you are 

doing".

Jack Ames lives with progress! 

As a Chief Test Engineer of Avro Aircraft Ltd., Jack Ames knows a lot 

about the spectacular progress of the aircraft industry. 

"Engines of enormously greater power, together with advances in airframe 

configuration and manufacturing techniques, have brought supersonic 

speeds within range today — and will help us break the thermal 

barrier tomorrow," says Mr. Ames. 

As a family man, Mr. Ames has had experience with another "industry"
