Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - August 1, 1975, Winnipeg, Manitoba Winnick Tail Artiss Foay. August i 1975 15 you can really go Fly a Kite by Judy Waysilk if you be got a Girlfriend who s told you to go Fly a Kite you can do it literally and in real style. Winnipeg has it s very own first Jud Only Kite shop. It Sells nothing but kites kites and More kites. They Cost from si.49 to and they Range from kid proof rugged Ordinary Kite shaped kites to extravagant acid Beautiful tetrahedrons fighter kites and wind socks. The shop is the brain child of a 21-year-old native nip Egger who brought the idea Back from Vancouver. Higher Thau a Kite has Only been open for two weeks but owner Wayne Schiewe said for a place that has opened without publicity of any kind it has been doing Well Clearing about a Day on is initial investment of about i figured on opening a specially shop of some kind and i hit on the kites and figured that if 1 did t do it this year someone would think of it next the kites come in from China. India Thailand Tai wan san Francisco Germany Holland and the . Or. Schiewe said he has a Friend working with him who has the distributorship for the kites from Kenora to he Hopes to be opening another shop in Edmonton and hopefully by january one in fort Lauder Dale As Well he plans on opening another shop Selling Wicker and exotic plants either in combination with higher than a Kite or As a separate shop. The shop on Osborne Street just Down from the Bouti que Section off Pembina Highway has 17 varieties of kites including seven kinds of fighter kites. A fighter Kite for those who believe kites Don t work unless they re made of newspaper and have to have tails constructed from old Bow ties is sort of Kite shaped but made from tissue paper and flown with Glass coated string. The idea behind it is to have fighter contests. The two contestants each try to slice each other s string and bring the enemy s Kite Down in ignominious defeat. Or there is the Tetrahedron Kite a massive thing that was originally invented by Alexander Graham Bell and you thought he just built it takes two people to Fly it and you d belter have leather gloves. Or. Schiewe took one out to the Park last weekend with a Friend and the wind was Strong enough to Cut the leather gloves they were wearing and break a 60-Pound test string. There Are butterflies Box kites Bird kites eagles big with americans said or. And air Force bombers. There Are giant wind sock fish kites and Chin Ese centipedes. They Are made from tissue paper or from mylar cellulose a thin Tough plastic that stretches before it will break. To go with the Kite you buy you have to have the right kind of string braided Nylon in varying test weights from 12 ibs. To 80 ibs. Kites originated in China Over years ago and since then there has been something about them that makes people Happy something that or. Schiewe finds a major part of his business. As soon As people come in the door they smile and that s Nice it makes me Happy. I like talking to people too. People will come in and just talk lie can did you know that the world record for the highest Kite was set at feet and it took 17 kites to support the string for the top one it also took four and a half Days to get the thing Back Down on the ground and the height had to be judged by the Only other thing that could get that High an air plane. Or the world record for the largest number of kites on a siring set in Japan about four months ago 37. Or the boys Days they have in Japan where the father flies above his Home the same number of kites As sons he has. And finally did you know and i did t that to get a Kite off the ground you should not run with it you should instead stand with your Back to the wind said or. Schiewe and let the wind take it up giving it a tug to get it higher and catch stronger winds. Maybe that s what Charlie Brown has been doing wrong All these years.
