Page 10 THE NEWS THIS WEEK AND NEXT by Ray Argyle = In The Years Ahead Picture, if you will, the world in 1976. Assuming that mankind has survived another decade of the nuclear age, set the scene at the United Nations in New York. A Summit meeting of the Great Powers has been called. They're all there, along with observers from the rest of the world's hundred-odd nations. The big, black limousines sweep up the curving driveway past the flags of the world. The chiefs of state of the United States, the Soviet Union, China, step out. But who are they? Ten years ago, in 1956, Lyn- don Johnson was just a Texas senator. Russia's Leonid Bre- zhnev had never been heard of by most people. Lester Pearson, about to win a Nobel Prize as a result of the Suez fiasco, was better known around the world than either. Johnson or Bre- zhnev. In another 10 years, these men and other world leaders will probably have beén re- moved by death, illness or polit- ical change. Who then will lead their countries? Based on an assessment of rising political figures in sever- al countries, here are some guesses as to who they might be. UNITED STATES. It will be an election year in 1976, and the two contenders could be Robert F. Kennedy for the Democrats and John Lindsay for the Re- publicans. Kennedy, who began cam- paigning for the White House less than a year after his broth- er's death, has been able to combine the legacy of his broth- er with his own forecast for the future. He has gone over the heads of his party's political leaders and to the public (large- ly by TV), to sell America on a fresh Kennedy Age. Lindsay, handsome, wealthy like Kennedy, vaulted from the House of Representatives into the job of mayor of New York, the most difficult city in Ameri- ca to govern. At the age of 54 in 1976, he has gone on from the New York job to other political victories, and as a Republican liberal, has rescued his party from Goldwa- terism. RUSSIA. After = struggling anew with the concept of "col- lective leadership," the Soviet Union before 1976 will probably have given way again to a new refund after that date. this change.

Due to lack of storage space at the Centre, we must make brand of one-man rule. The Chairman of the Council of Ministers will be the man with power in his grip. It could be Dimitri Polyansky, born on the day of the Russian revolution, November 7, 1917. Aged 59 in 1976, he had worked himself up to Premier of Russia proper -- largest of the states of the USSR -- by 1957 and soon after was elected to the Presidium, now the all-powerful Politburo. On Oct. 2, 1965, he be- came first deputy premier of the Soviet Union. -Or it could be Alexander She- lepin, ex-secret police chief, a ruthless, determined Communist considered by many to have been the real No. 2 behind Leo- nid Brezhnev following the oust- er of Nikita Khrushchev. She- lepin, also born in 1917, was a "boy wonder" of the Soviets and had led the Communist youth organization, Konsomel. CANADA. By 1976, Canada will have 24 million people. Its economy will probably be tied more closely to the U.S. than ever, and French-English fric- tion will be partly overcome by rising living standards. A dominating personality of the 1970s could be Liberal John Turner, a bright Montreal law- yer, one-time escort of Princess Margaret, and a quiet spokes- man of the "new wave" Quebec Liberals. An English Canadian in Quebec, he would be a logical successor to a French-speaking Liberal leader who might have replaced Lester Pearson. His chief opponent could be Tory bloodhound Erik Nielsen, who won prominence by expos- ing graft and crime. As early as 1965, Mr. Nielsen was being asked to leave his Yukon and move to a more populous part of the country in order to build a stronger power base for future leadership hopes. CHINA. An enigma in 1976 as much as in 1966, China will be nearing the billion mark in pop- ulation, a highly-industrialized, closely-knit nation. Its leader could be the now .almost-un- known Hsiao Hua, 61 in 1976, and a Communist since the age of 14. Taught by Mao Tse-tung, he became political chief of the Chinese Army. His lack of for- mal education has not stopped him from becoming a _ good speaker and a first-class admin- istrator. will sponsor a Rummage Sale on June 25th at 10 a.m Phone 3662. slate of officers will be chosen.

CENTENNIAL PARK PLANS TO GO AHEAD A recent visitor to Terrace Bay was Mr.A.R. Morpurgo, District Planning Advisor from the Dept. of Municipal Affairs who met with the Centennial Committee and with Reeve Adamo. Purpose of his trip was to provide general guide lines for the con- struction of the Centennial Park here. Mr .Morpurgo was impressed with both the loca- tion and its amenities. He suggested that, in view of its position close to the highway, the park should be an entirely passive area, i.e., no playground equipment, but an area of paths, green grass, flower beds and a fountain. Work on the project will commence shortly and a landscape architect will prepare a blueprint for the site. It is expected that a scale model of the finished park will be made for display purposes. RECREATION SUMMER PROGRAMME The Summer Playground Programme will commence July Ist and continue through until August 12th, operating afternoons only Monday through Friday - l p.m. to 4p.m. Four playground leaders and four leaders-in-training will carry out the program.
