Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - March 16, 1968, Winnipeg, Manitoba Winnipeg free press saturday March 16, the Herron Folk by Shaun Herron Nasa scientists leave Churchill after Aurora boreal is study Churchill Man. Staff the staff of a tory owned flying observe by the . What is Wacky Bennett laughing at consider with me if you will the present political landscape in a Dull country devoid of color i have there is first the Prospect of our splendid frenchmen from the St. Lawrence. All the panache in Canadian Politi Cal personalities is at this moment French. The French Are swinging the cat by its Tail and the cat appears to love it. I suggest that for a time we can forget the Vietnam War or at least leave its conduct to the americans. There s a lot going on at Home. Trudeau Levesque Johnson the three most interesting political figures we have. Or. Daniel Johnson is what i would Call a constantly surprised and surprising politician. He comes to every conference with a new face and changes it for every session. Part of his interest is that he always learns something we already knew. Last time he found to his political astonishment that we liked Canada too. He is an entertainingly Subtle politician whose moves Are always visible it is fascinating to watch being a transparently Subtle politician. And he is a sly it and he has written a Good Book and he enjoys being Daniel Johnson most of the Pierre Elliott Trudeau has written a Good Book enjoys being p. E. Trudeau looks like a Plain French actor at the Peak of his career talks with his shoulders and is refreshingly Lucid. I took a Pool among my Young friends they Are switching from John Turner to p. E. Trudeau. Or. Turner they Tell All there was till something came along. In their different ways or. Johnson and or. Trudeau have that charismatic chemistry notably lacking in our politicians style. Canada is yearning for political and personal style in its politicians for style and wit for Relief from the dog eared personality cliches that drape the dog eared personalities who presently pursue us with their tired drooping presence. The nip Don t want Trudeau As Liberal Leader. Crowe and Fisher have launched the nip Public Campaign against or. Levesque had it. He is losing it under the pressure of a bad guess but he has written a Book and made a splash. Or. T. C. Douglas Calls him a his Book is to Cost More in the English version. Or. Levesque is not without humor he intends his own Canadian common Market Anglo Aid to begin at once. There Are also the candidates How Many i cannot say they Are Apt to increase Between pen and print. But the Prospect they present is not without its own quaint and distended distinction. P. E. Trudeau said Quebec politicians would be better employed seeing that decent French is taught in Quebec s schools. Then perhaps our candidates could go to these schools the Rush of our politicians to learn French is one of the tickling ecstasies of our National life. Its fruits Are Ripe and various. Have you heard sex mayor Henderson s French More pertinent has sex mayor. Henderson or. Kierans has made himself fluent in the papers say. Or. Kierans debated with Rene Lucien Langois says and lost. His French is so separatism win As the Only French defense against candidate French the Only time our non French candidates bring to the service of their ambitions the saving Grace of laughter for us is when they Are proving themselves bilingual. Then the spectacular color the uninhibited daring the . Fields Ian Genius of Canada s political life shines through with a strange puce extravagance that pales and palls the grossest of god s postcard sunsets. Apart from this aspect of their Public presence you of course incline to the View that they Are together and apart the most insignificantly Leaden lot since the invention of the old diving suit. Let me plead with you that you might think yourselves there not after All a certain collective glory in so much cold porridge is there not something inherently magnificent about bulk a Little piece of Plain Dull Boring Rock is Petty Plain Dull and Boring. But the cumulative effect of millions of tons of such Little rocks is a splendid Rocky and it May be nothing More , but it becomes in bulk one of our Continental glories. When we have before us at least ten candidates whose separate Power to produce mass ennui is overwhelming or. Paul Hellyer on economics or. Paul Martin on economics these Are enough to justify a lengthy exegesis of the question Paul Paul Why persecutes thou the effect of All of them together is Black massive and crushing enough to make this present gift to our National life one of anything to equal it since the building of the pyramids but of course concentration on Quebec and the Candi dates might create the impression that All our National color is from the East. I turn now therefore to what May with Justice and very Little mercy May be called our other or the last rights. No nation which can boast of British Columbia s present political landscape can Ever be judged to have been ill favored by god with the political deformities that turn Hope to Happy hysteria. Foreigners and other unfortunates who saw anything of our two constitutional conferences must have been delighted by one of their added attractions. You May recall that at the Toronto conference or. Bonner the attorney general from British Columbia made a number of Jolly contributions during which he was hard put to discipline his giggles at the Ottawa conference or. A a. A. Bennett laughed a great Deal. Indeed he did almost nothing else except to commend poverty As an indispensable training ground for leaders. Look at the screen and there was a big polished Moon gashed from port to starboard by a Grea and Happy vacancy. The gift of laughter has been Given to our b. C. Leaders with measureless generosity till the image forces itself into the mind that the government of . Is on the Edge of something. Or. Phil Gaglardi is one of the mos tireless Laugher in our Public life. One wonders what Swiss like musical traditions we might have established in the capital of . Had been in Banff the Swiss refined their Goat Calls into the Yodel As an Art form. Or. Bennet might Well have become the Brahms of the reverberating belly laugh in Banff. But what is Wacky Bennett s lot laughing at what do or. Bennett and his colleagues in . Know that Davey Fulton does not National aeronautics and space administration Nasa Aren t primarily interested in the poetic properties of Canadian late autumn and Winter night skies. To them the Luminous meteoric phenomenon is simply Aurora boreal is the scientific name for the technicolor spectacle generally seen Over Manitoba from to about 500 Miles North of the Churchill River Mouth.

One such research is Hugh Woods of Melfort sask., a physics graduate of the univer sity of Saskatchewan who is following the Trail of the More than 25-year-.old Institute of space and atmosphere studies in Saskatoon. Or. Woods has been studying Infra red rays in the Aurora Boreali with a View to learning More about weather patterns. Such studies were previously conducted with High level bal loons and Black Brant rockets manufactured by Briston Aero space Ltd. In Winnipeg. Balloons take too Long to reach sufficiently High altitudes and rockets have the disadvantage of a fixed course. The Nasa research aircraft offers the scientist the manoeuvrability required for a varied series of experiments explained or. Woods. Or.
