Recent appointments to Senate for parts of the East remind us that there is still a vacancy for British Columbia that is unfilled. Prince Rupert might well consider itself more than a little interested in the impending appointment through having candidates who are amplv qualified and richly deserving as a result of long years of able and faithful service to the culminating recognition and honor that appointment to the highest legislative body of the land implies. The other day Former Premier T. D. Pattullo, still member of trfe legislative assembly for Prince Rupert, celebrated his seventieth birthday and even the Vancouver Province went out of its way to congratulate him on the perpetuation of his youth despite the passing years. We know of no other candidate who could be more richly endowed for the senatorship than Mr. Pattullo. Undoubtedly, his qualifications are uniquely strong. It was twenty-seven years ago this coining fall since he was elected member for Prince Rupert a young man whose abilities and talents marked him at once for cabinet rank. His career continuous since thpn as fur n Violations of Dim-out . . .

Possibly there is.no other man in British Columbia that would enhance and grace the Senate more conspicuously than Mr. Pattullo. We might add when discussing Mr.. Pattullo as puiamurti jjussiuiiHy mat we nave no idea of his own wishes and desires in the matter. We know him well enough, however, to be sure that he would not go out and seek the office as others might possibly do. We do not, however, know nor cle we know of anyone that does if he would accept senatorship if it were offered to him. t Another' Prince Rupert man whose name, of course. ik to be mentioned in connection with the vacant senator-ship is that of Olof Hanson who has also built up his qua locations through ability and quality of service in public office. Mr. Hanson, while newer in public life than the veteran Mr. Pattullo, has likewise proven that he would be an acquisition to the upper chamber. Like Mr Pattullo we do not know how he would feel about accenting the office of senator were it offered to him Mv P""f ,uPert People would heartily approve either.

H looked back and could see Van Gendt and Tapio drilling. They shouted at the two men but evidently they did not hear. The train passed at fair sieed. Van Gendt and Tapio never looked up. Witness said that when he llrst heard the train he was only about fifteen feet from Van Gendt and Tapio. They were not unning their drill then and there was reason to' believe that they uust tvve heard the whistle. However, they started to drill again. In he position they were in their view was obscured. John Jokl, another workman, strudlr ? on the top of the outside of the cut, saw the train coming and shouted to Van Gendt and Tapio.

Witness also heard Johnson shout to the two men. Dr. John A. MacDonald told of the nature of Taplo's Injuries. There had, been a successful operation for removal of pressure from the brain as a result pf the skull fracture. After the operation, however, deceased became restless with vomiting and hapid swelling of rhoulder and neck developed, suggesting puncture of the lung by fracture of the clavicle. This was later confirmed by autopsy. Death came apparently as a result of suffocation from the lung puncture. Deceased's rlgrjt kidney was also damaged. Sport Chat It's a long way back to the time Pittsburgh Yellow Jackets cavorted in the National Hockey League with Jimmy Conn as one of the speed merchants. But although Ottawa's Jimmy is In a bizaer game of war with the Air Force In Encland now he ran't fnrset the ice sport. A sprlghUy veteran, he's Cpl. Conn of the R.OA.F. service police and be adds plenty ofv defensive strength to the Ice team of an Army Co-Operatlon Squad ron led by Wing Cmdr. Bunt Wad-dell of Peterborough. Ont. But that doesn't make up enough skating for Jimmy. Anytime he heads for London town on a SDot j of leave, a pair of skates goes Into j his kit bag. To quote FO. J. A. : Roberts of Calgary and Winnipeg, (who takes an active part in squadron sports, "Jimmy may be a bit' low and slightly rotund, but he plays a rugged and heady game." I Roberts, a Mustang pilot, knows I his hockey. He played defence I with University of Manitoba iu 1936 and subsequently in the hard. bitten mining league around Klrk-land Lake, Ont. Wing Cmdr. Paul Davoud of Kingston, Ont., not onlv leads his Beaufighter squadron in night righting but also heads his men in sport, A good track man, rugby, softball and volleyball player, his latest sports feat Is to demon strate himself as an "Anglicized athlete." With Davoud in a lead ing role, his squadron dropped their first English rugger game In five starts when a British Army O.C.T.U. beat them 13-3. Davoud scintillated with lengthy, open-field dashes that brought cheers from British experts and memories of his football career with Royal Military College and Queen's University. A sportsman through and through, Davoud Is a flrai believer that sports of all kinds keep station morale at a high pitch. Pit. Lt. Ken MacQlllivray had heard of tennis activity around Cairo, so when the call came for him to hop to the Middle East as an R.C.A.F. public relations officer, his trusty racket formed part of the luggage. Now Ken is moaning about long-distance commuting because the battle line has been stretched a long way from the Cairo that once had the enemy on Its doorstep. Ken. former Toronto newspaperman and nrl. vertising hustler, was quite a force on his station tennis courts In the Midlands last summer. He usm? in i play with another Toronto Lawn viuu iiicuiuti, rii. jack Clare, formerly of Saskatoon. Now the two have a North African ren- , dezvous somewhere along the line for Clare, another press officer, found himself in an AlcerLm n vlronment last December.

But who knows maybe the Just haven't got round to it yet. Meanwhile Dorothy Roe, Associated Press fashion editor, has been telling our American couflns how to 'get along nicely with three palrr a year. It may happen here and Miss Roe's advice is timely in any event. She writes: Don't let shoe rationing set you back on your heels. Three pairs a year should be ample to keep you off your uppers If you buy wisely and take care of what you buy. The 1943 shoe wardrobe, if aen-eibly planned, will be something like this: One pair of sturdy, low- neeiea waimng shoes, lor wear with tweeds and sports clothes. In town or country, summer or wlh-' ter; one pair of all-purpose strctt shoes.-with slightly higher heel, for wear with town suits and frocks these may be pumps, oxfords or one-strap shoes; one pair of semi-dress shoes, in patent leather, kid or suede, for dress-up wear not too dressy for day-time, dressy enough for wear with "after-five" clothes. No more eve ning shoes will be made for the duration, so informal evening wear Is the wartime rule (in the U.S.). If you want shoes that will last end look well, buy the best you can afford, and Insist on good leathers that can be kept polished and shining.
