To the pest of my knowledge, there has never been a _ prize- winning Charr in the Field and Stream contest, in forty years, which was taken from water west of the Rockies; and west- ‘ern anglers are certainly mis$- ing a good bet. For only one reason do we place the charr low down on the sport angling scale, and that is because he likes deep water, which neces- | sitates the use of tackie heavier than usual, consequently the | charr cannot put up much of an ,argument when hooked. | It happens that Marty is par- ticularly fond of charr to eat, (try it and find out why) and he has made a point of deep trolling many of the interior lakes, and always with better than average luck, compared to what he would get in Eastern in the residential centre for) waters. students- of the Finnish Tech-| 4 is 9 fact that our little fish- nieal University.

Tourists Chief Dollar Source For Great Britain By JACK GOLDING Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON —Visitors from Can- | ada and the United States spent an estimated £22,250,000 in Brit- ain during 1951, not, including }fares, says the 24th annual re- | port of the British Travel and | Holidays Association, Tourist traffic again repre-| sented one of the country’s chief | sources of earning Canadian and | American dollars. One-third of | total tourist receipts came from the United States and Canada. Some 36,000 Canadians visited Britain in 1951, an increase of 5.7 per cent over the previous year. The report notes, however, | that there was a tendency for them to spend more time on the continent than previously. Cun- adians entering the United King- dom in 1951 spent £5,950,000, in-| , cluding fares. U.S: visitors spent £26,400,000, | including fare payments, a sum | orenter than any of Britain’s | visible exports to the United states and equivalent to 20 per cent of all Britain’s physical ex- ports there In order of importance in earn- ing U.S. dollars for Britain are: tourists, whisky, woollen yarns and manufactured products, ve- hicles, other textile’ manufac- tures ery, pottery, glass, cotton yarns and manufactures, While Britain reports noted improvement in air, sea, hotel and transport accommodation, it | doubts whether sufficient facili- ties are offered yet to deserve such an influx of fresh money This is a matter of concern, the | report says, adding that the country has never been more de- pendent on tourist traffic. The report says prospects for | 1952 tourist trade in the United | Kingdom look bright. There are | the United States—an estimated | 20¢,006. The grand total of visi- tors is expected to reach 750,000. | Britain expects to make £120,-; 00¢.000 from the tourist business | during 1952 largely in Canadian | and'U3S. dollars. fs Bia Stockpile PRETORIA, South Africa (CP)— Automatic telephone equipmeni valued at nearly £1,000,000 is waiting here for buildings ia which it can be installed.
