Poor Road Story 

Scored Sharply 

PUBLIC WORKS officials" 

here took sharp exception 

to £ news item appearing in 

last Thursday's issue of The 

"PririCe George Citizen which 

claimed that rain during the 

week had made the highway 

north and south of Quesnel, 

almost impassable in soni'? 

sections. 

"V/e have had no trouble 

at i':! in the Quesnel area," 

stated a public works spokesman, 

"though on the Prince 

George end of the highway - 

the:? is some bad road." 

The Citizen report was 

credited to motorists an-iving 

from the south who claimed 

that the rain had turned the 

road into a sea of water and 

mud where reconstruction is 

under way. 

Thiere is no reconstruction 

at present being carried out 

in the Quesnel sector, though 

coaling the highway with 

crushed rock in preparation 

for pulvi-mix surfacing of about 

11 miles is under way.

by Senator Gray Turgeoi;. 

Vv:th the naming of a Liberal

there will be a three-way 

race for the Cariboo seat. 

William Irvine, who was defeated 

by Mr. Murray in the 

1949 election, is the CCF 

standard bearer and Bert R.

Unless there is a last-minute 

change of plans there apoer.rs 

little likelihood of a

REDUCTION in power rates 

for r.'l residential and commeicial 

customers in the 

Quesnel district of two cents 

in the first consumption block 

was announced today l)y 

District Manager J. D. Dobie. 

The cut becomes effective 

for all meter readings in the 

two classifications on and after 

August 1. 

The lower rates, which 

have been under study for 

some time, were approved by 

the Commission in Victoi'ia 

after a review of the financial 

condition of the Quesnel 

Power District. 

Under the "Electric Power 

Apt," each district must be 

according to the cost of serving 

customers in each of the 

Commission's 27 power districts 

throughout the province. 

New rr.';idential rate stiaicture 

for the district will be as 

follows: First 20 kilowatt 

hours in Zone 1, which v/as 

formerly IDc, is being redu'> 

ed to 8c. In Zone 2, or the 

area outside the Village, the 

rate for the first 20 kilowatt 

hours is being reduced from 

12c per kwh to 10c. 

Rates on other blocks of 

power consumed will remain 

unchanged.

Both games were played in 

Prince George. The A's copped 

the first game by a narrow 

4-3 count and took tlie 

second by an 8-7 "margin after 

Clippers had staged a 

great comeback. 

It was a three-run rally in 

the second inning of the opening 

game that paved the 

way for Alliletics' win. Clippers 

opened the scoring with 

a run in the first inning. 

The Athletics runs were all 

of the uneared variety. Pitcher

In the nightcap Swain started 

on the mound for Clippers 

and he ran into immediate

mound and Athletics were 

out in front with six runs. 

Despite the bad start Clippers 

fought back hard. They 

picked off a run in the second

that plans for installing a 

copper line between Quesnel 

and Wells had been abandoned. 

"Traffic over the Wells 

line has fallen off shai-ply,'' 

said Mr. Schubert, "and at 

the present time installation 

of copper does not appear to 

be warranted." 

A radio repeater station 

was to be installed on completion 

of a copper line. Such 

a station was promised about 

seven years ago, but the neces-sary 

appropriation has never 

appeared in estimates.

—By GLEN NADEAU 

TKE CARIB THEATRE will 

have a large curved screen 

that will use an aspect ratio 

of 1.66 to 1. Paramount Studios 

have announced that all 

their films, including a lerelease 

of "The Greatest 

Show on Earth", v/ill be made 

for thi.s ratio. Until a few 

months ago all screens had a 

ratio cf 1,33 to 1, but the wider 

curved screen gives a 

much better picture even to 

features that were originally 

made for the old 1.33 to 1 ratio. 

The screen in the Rex is 

11 feet wide but the curved, 

.screen in the Carib is 26 feet 

wide. 

At lea.st 13 3-D features 

v.'ill be released by the end of 

July. These releases will give 

e\'ery company except Republic 

at least one 3-D feature.

to the knotty problem of 

having' power and fish both 

fi oni the rivers of Eriti.sh Columbia.

Fioberto Rossellini, the noted 

Italian motion picture 

producer, is negotiating with 

a Canadian film company to 

make Italian films in this 

country. This would help 

boost the Canadian motion 

picture industry to a ranking 

position in moviedom. 

Columbia Pictures will be 

filming two features in Canada 

this summer. They v.'ill 

be: Emile Zola's ''The Human 

Beast", which will be made 

in co-operation with the Canadian 

National Railways at 

Edmonton, (he other is "High 

Command" a stf)ry about 

bush pilots. 

Twentieth Century Fox 

will be filming "River of no 

Return" at Mount Robinson, 

near Banff, Alia. This will 

star Marilyn Monroe, Robert 

Mitchum and Rory Calhoun. 

It appears this may be 

Canada's busiest production 

location year, since Universal 

International, MGM and other 

companies are also .scouting 

possibilities.

operated by-pass which appears 

to pass all tests. 

•'For the past live years 

Andy has been perfecting a 

working model of an hydraulically 

operated by-pass which 

he expects will enable fi.sh to 

surmount river dams en route 

to their natural spawning 

grounds," says an article ir; 

the current issue of F';\vell 

River "Digester" published 

by the Powell Fiiver Company. 

"The model has been examined 

by busine.ss execulives. 

biologists and water works 

engineers. Not one fjf them 

found a flav/ in tho ope;-ation i 

that cannot be corrected, according 

to Mr. Devlin. 

''Like most invenli(jns, the 

by-pass seems simple Vv'hen 

seen and explained. 

"Roughly the by-pass includes 

a hydratilically operated 

lock to be placed at tho 

foot of the dam or near a spillway. 

The fish, when obstructed 

on their upstream migration, 

search about for a way 

to continue their journey and, 

finding an inducement stream 

from the by-pass, naturally 

enter. 

"Once in tho by-pass, the 

fish are trapped by the lower 

gate in an enclosed compartment. 

The v/ater is then let 

in from the main passage until 

the compartment is full, 

when the upper gate opens, 

allowing the fish free pas.sage 

through the pipe into the 

dam and so oii their v/ay. 

"The machine leads directly 

through a dam if built with 

the dam. If installed later, it 

has an elevator at its upper 

end to carry the fish over the 

edge. It works equally well 

for spawning salmon bound 

upstream and for fry and fingerlings 

headed downstream. 

"Mr. Devlin's elevator is 

patented and ready for a trial 

under actual fish conservation 

conditions, and there is 

nothing he would like better 

than a full-sized installation 

in operation in the Pacific 

Northwest. 

"We have had herring go 

through the model successfully, 

Mr. Devlin told the 

Digester reporter, but added 

that does not prove anything. 

The big question is, will salmon 

go up to spawn? If they 

do it v/ill mean millions for 

the fish industry." 

Success of Mr. Devlin's invention 

could mean millions 

for far more than the fish in 

dustry. Here in Central B.C. 

there is a prime example of 

v.'hat such an installation 

could do if it oroves a practical 

success. The battle between 

fish and power interests 

would be at -an end and 

there could be a power dam | 

on the main stream of the 

Quesnel River with no danger 

to the Quesnel River salmon 

run the biologists are at 

present trying to rebuild.

What You Can Do About Those Bombs 

YOUR LIFE may depend 

upon how you act if your 

community undergoes air attack, 

according to federal civil 

defence authorities. In 

their popular handbook, "Per 

-sonal Protection under Atomic 

Attack," the experts 

give some basic rules for action 

befoi-e, during and after 

a raid, and it all boils down 

to knowing what to do ana 

how to do it. 

The information in the preparedness 

manual is related 

to other material issued by- 

Ottawa for distribution thru' 

the provinces and municipalities 

to all Canadians, in the 

hope that, being forewarned, 

they will e.scapo death or serious 

injury even under assault 

with the most modern 

war weapons. For, say the 

authorities, there are ways of 

protecting yourself and, if 

they po.ssess trained and cquipped 

emergency services, 

whole communities can minimize 

the effects of disaster, 

whether enemy-inspired or of 

such natural occurrence as 

fire, flood, 'quake or explosion.

WITH WARNING 

When an air raid warning 

sounds you may expect at 

least five minutes grace before 

disaster strikes, if the 

raid takes place. If you are 

near enough to a public shelter, 

go there quickly. If you 

don't think you can rnalce it, 

hurry to any nearby cover, 

such as a large builditig. Doat 

rush—speed i.s essential, but 

undue haste could cau.-e panic.
