An RCAF officer has inventâ€" ed a "Capacitator Discharge 1gâ€" nition" system that provides the answer to the 50 year old probâ€" lem of a reliable and efficient ignition system for all types of gasoline engines. The Royal 22nd., well known as the "Van Doos", are again serving Canada well as part of the U.N. peace force stationed in strife torn Cyprus. Their fine actions and example do credit to Canada‘s overseas image. Flight Licutenant Lloyd Winâ€" terburn, 92 Knoxdale Ave., Otâ€" tawa, tired of trying to keep his car properly tuned. came up with this invention, about twice the size of a cigarette package, that has proven itself in about three million miles of road testing. A police department, trucking firms, taxi companies as well as private car owners did the testâ€" ing and gas savings from five to 25 per cent have been recordâ€" ed. The best savings were reâ€" ported on large trucks where there is a marked tonâ€"mile per gallon improvement.

Estimated life of a set of points with this new system is 60,000 miles, comparâ€" ed with 8,000 miles under the conventional. The unit is designed with no stress components and is not afâ€" fected by temperatures between 50 below and 140 degrees (F) above zero or by shock vibraâ€" tion or moisture, Flt. Lt.

The mayor then suggested that a letter be sent to Mrs. Burton, expressing the sympathy of Waterloo Council, and then reâ€" quested everyone stand for a moments silence. A sale of Canadian capital equipment and engineering serâ€" vices for the construction of a zinc smelter and associated sulâ€" phuric acid plant near Cochin, Kerala State, India, was anâ€" nounced today by the Hon.

In this final column 1 would like to do someâ€" thing that I perhaps should have done 46 weeks ago when I wrote the first of the series. I would like to get a little bit serious and delve into what I believe is the essence of humor. First of all, let me say that humor is not easy. Those who claim that it is, are, in my opinion, eithâ€" er liarsa â€" or remarkably unfunny persons â€" or both. At a party last week things were getting a litâ€" tle dull and so the hostess walked over to me and suggested "Why don‘t you get up and ad lib one of your funny columns, Tom". I‘m afraid it just doesn‘t work that way. I can‘t say to myself, "Well here I am with nothing to do for the next five minutes; I guess T‘ll just sit down to my trusty typewriter and dash off a masâ€" terpiece of comedy." How I wish I could. I‘d be a millionaire now. Unfortunately every column, every sitnation, every word has to be wrung out of me.

Waterloo Council approved in principal Monday night, to the adoption of the proposed Naturâ€" al Amphitheatre as Waterloo‘s Centennial project. The project that will include a bandshell, and small lake in the new park adjacent to the Waterâ€" loo park proper. and Westmount road. 1t is expected that the proâ€" ject will cost in the neighbourâ€" hood of $70,000. The city is reâ€" quested to put up $1.00 per capita and the provincial and federal governments will also put up similar amounts. All members of council ex Waterloo Council Approve Centennial Project In Principal The ECIC loan is being made out of the special credits comâ€" mitted by Canada under its contribution to the World Bank Aid India Consortium. This proâ€" ject has a very high priority in India‘s current Five Year Plan, and will enable India to further its programme of increasing production and processing of nonâ€"ferrous metals. pressed their approval of the adoption of the project and paid tribute to â€" Alderman _ Arthur Paleczny for his leadership and thoroughness of investigation of projects under consideration. While at present there is no intention of enlarging the presâ€" ent swimming pool, it was felt that it may become necessary sometime in the future, . the change rooms however are in need of enlarging now and will be done along with the other project when the present bandâ€" shell is demolished. EVERYBODY AND HIS DOG (as the saying goes) attended the Lion‘s Club Annual Convenâ€" tionâ€" This little fellow seemed lost amongst the legs of delegates, however, his expression seems to imply that if her were stepped on, someone would think he was a "Lion". Cbronicle Photos, Writing down facts and figures is nothing. There is no problem at all in writing a scientific treatise on the vegetable life in the Sahara Desert or a statistical analysis of the population growth in the Kitchenerâ€"Waterloo area. What is truly difâ€" ficult is writing something out of one‘s own head, something worth reading for no other purpose than just the reading. Few persons realize that it is harder to write one of those funny little articles in Punch than one of Peterâ€" Marshall‘s sermons. Stephen Lenancock‘s Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town is a greater work than Kant‘s Critique of Pure Reason and Lewis Carrol‘s Alice in Wonderland has done more for humanity than has John Henry Newman‘s Lead, Kindly Light, Amid the Encircling Gloom. Newman only asked for light in a dark and gloomy world. Carrol gave it. In closing may I thank the many prople who have commented on my columns, with a special thanks to the few whose comments have been favâ€" orable. BUDDIES ALL I‘M HERE TOO Fee Increase The University of Waterloo has announced an increase in tuition fees for the 1964â€"65 year. Dr. J. G. Hagey, President, said yesterday that the Univerâ€" sity of Waterloo has been reâ€" luctant to impose the fee inâ€" crease but, like other universiâ€" ties in Ontario, it has found that rising capital and operational costs leave no alternative if present teaching standards and facilities are to be maintained. It has therefore become necâ€" essary to raise tuition fees in all years, for all facultics, by apâ€" proximately $75.00. The amphitheatre will have many uses, band concerts, stage plays. Drama. films, â€" public lectures and so forth. Hills will be raised around the area to provide t he natural â€" amphiâ€" theatre. Concession booths and washâ€" rooms will be buill on the isâ€" land, and parking lots and founâ€" tain, and creck widening will also be a part of the new area development Alderman Paleczny made it clear that this would probably not be the only centennial projâ€" ect adopted by the city. ns
