That skeet-shooting challenge issued lastmonth by Open Pit to Copper Cliff Rod andGun Club threw the ranks of the latter intomomentary confusion, but they ralliedstrongly and as we go to press appear noneWe worse for the shock.

President Paul Queneau promptly calledconference to rally the morale of his menand map strategy. The first thing to do,it was unanimously decided. was to scalpthe cdi tor of the Triangle for pril it ing t liechallenge.

"Further, we challenge the Open Pit (ifthere really is such a place) to a rifle com-petition, although we are saddened by therealization that their accomplishments arelimited to the use of scatter guns, no doubtof the automatic or machine-gun type.

"We strongly urge that they bolster theirteam with imports from the Sudbury Fishand Game Protective Association, the Regi-ment. and the Provincial Police.

Garson Mine Captures ParkerShield for Inter-Plant First Aid

In one of the most exciting contests sincethe R. D. Parker Shield was put up for com-petition in 1937. Garson Mine defeatedCopper Refinery for the Inco inter-plantFirst Aid championship before a large crowdat the Employees Club in Sudbury the even-ing of April 1.

The problem, set by Tom Crowther, wasa tough one, full of diversions, distractions,and tricky tests which called for presenceof mind and a thorough knowledge oI FirstAid work. Both teams were warmly com-mended by Chief Surgeon Dr. H. F. Mowat,who was assisted by Dr. J. H. Stanyon, onthe way they handled the emergency.

In the absence of the donor, J. R. Gordon,assistant vice president of Inco, presented theParker Shield and $50 individual prizes tothe victors. He extended his congratulationsto both teams for their fine display.

Reviewing the series of elimination contestswhich preceded the main event for theinter-plant title, Mr. Gordon announced thatunder the revised plan tried out this yeara total of 158 teams, comprising 948 men,had taken part in Inco's First Aid program,an all-time record. Further, although 593men were entered for the first time, thestandard of teamwork was just as good asbefore. Interest and enthusiasm had reacheda new peak. Mr. Gordon conveyed the Com-pany's appreciation to everyone who hadassisted in making the program such agratifying success.

Two-Ring Trouble CircusWorking out the problem in the final con-

test, the First Aid teams were required toascertain and treat the injuries of a man whohad been struck by a truck, and who wassuffering from a laceration of the left upperarm with arterial bleeding, concussion,fracture of the right tibia, fracture of theright ribs, shock, and a bruise on the fore-head. While they were busier than beeswith this large assignment, a second victimwas discovered in a garage nearby by hiswife, who promptly threw a peach of a fit.This second patient was found to havecarbon monoxide poisoning and had to berevived on a rocker stretcher. With thistwo-ring trouble circus on their hands, theteams really had to show their stuff, butthey bore up splendidly under pressure andoverlooked very few point-winning angles.

The big crowd followed the contest closelyand gave each team an ovation when itcompleted its floor work.

Patients who gave highly realistic per-formances were Leo Frappier and NormMorrow. Timekeeper was Wally McIntosh,the truck driver was Bert Debney, and thehysterical wife, who made a great hit withthe audience, was Angus Harrison.

Much enjoyed vocal selections were givenby Miss Elizabeth Curtiss, a newcomer toSudbury, with piano accompaniments playedby Bill Badgley. Master of ceremonies wasTom Crowther, the major-domo of the FirstAid competitions.

Garson Mine won the new H. J. Mutztrophy in the semi-final contest held for fiveteams from underground mines on March24. Other teams competing, in the order oftheir standing, were Creighton, Levack.Murray, and Frood-Stobie. The patient hadreceived fractures of the jaw and leftfemur, and two lacerations of the right fore-arm, in a fall from some steps. Drs, Stanyonand Lindsay conducted the examinations,Joffre Perras was the timekeeper, and WallyMcIntosh was an assistant.

In the semi-final for surface plants CopperRefinery won the new D. Flnlaysàn shieldby defeating Frood-Stobie Open Pit,Coniston, and Copper Cliff, which finishedin that order. They had to treat a man

who had fallen from the back of a truckin motion, and who had a fracture at thebase of the skull, arterial bleeding in thepalm of the hand, and a fracture of theright tibia. Drs. Stanyon and Lindsay werein charge, the patient was Andy Muir, andthe timekeeper was George Quilty.

Members and coaches of the two winningteams in the semi-finals were presented withParker "51" fountain pens by Messrs. Mutzand Finlayson.

Paper Industry IsBig User of Nickel

Canadians use their weight in paper eachyear, K. H. J. Clarke, assistant sales managerof the International Nickel Company andformerly of the Copper Refinery, told ameeting of pulp and paper engineers at PortArthur. Describing the importance of thepaper industry, he said that the Dominionsannual consumption of paper averaged 150pounds per person.

Users of paper seldom thhk of the bamingproblems which are being solved by thepaper industry, Mr. Clarke said. Every dayCanadian mills produce mile upon mile ofpaper, from tough, low-cost box boards tofine tissues. Newspapers, for instance, areprinted on a finely matted Web of cellulosefibres whic1 is a. notable example of thepapermakers art.

Forming fibres into paper requires equip-ment made of metals which must withstandthe terrific stresses and strains of grinding,beating and rolling. The equipment mustbear up under steam pressures and the at-tack of corrosive chemicals. That is whya 11 o y s made of tough, corrosion-resistantCanadian nickel have proved extremely use-ful for pulp and paper processing equipment.

Honor Mike GogaFor Life-Saving

Mike Goga of Copper Cliff Smelter hasbeen awarded a parchment certificate by theRoyal Canadian Humane Association for hisact of heroism on Feb. 24. 1947, when hesaved two children from drowning in Junc-tion Creek.

Eddie Haapala, aged 6, son of Mr. andMrs. H. Haapala, and Patricia Hall, 5. daugh-ter of Mr. and Mrs. Elwood Hall, were thetwo children Mike rescued. Judy Hall, 3,Patricia's sister, although also rescued, diedfrom shock and exposure an hour later.

The children were sledding down a hill,and Patricia's sled went over the creek bankand into the open channel. When Eddieattempted to pull her out, he too fell in. Noone recalled having seen Judy fall in. Mrs.Goga heard the cries of the children and

'called her husband.Reticent about his feat and the high recog-

nition awarded it, Mike says he never losesa chance to warn the kiddies in his neighbor-hood to be careful about playing near thecreek, and he is gratified that there havebeen no other drownings in that section sinceFebruary of last year.

Mike is a Czech by birth and a Canadianby naturalization. He is a veteran of fiveyears' service in the Second Great War,

Different TypeOf Filter Gets

ITrial at MillSomething n'w in the way of equipment,

as far as Inco operations are concerned,caused more than a ripple of interest up atthe Copper Cliff Concentrator last month.

The innovation at the big 'ore laundry"was a different type of filter, installed withcustomary precision and despatch by theMechanical Dept. and turned over to theMill men for better or for worse.

When you say filter up at the Mill, you'renot referring to any little wad of cotton tostrain the nicotine out of cigaret smoke:you're talking about a massive cylindricalmachine with great suction power.

Too Wet for SmeItinDuring the process of crushing, grinding,

and separation to which ore is subjected inI the Mill to rid it of waste material and alsoto divide its nickel and copper components,it picks up a lot more water than is goodfor it as far as the smelter is concerned. So.before it hits the c on v e y o r trail to thefurnaces, it has to be dehydrated.

This is the work of the battery of filters.The ore pulp is fed to them and they pick itup in even layers on their huge revolvingdrums. As the drum revolves a powerfulvacuum goes to work, drawing off the waterfrom the pulp. By the time the drumreaches its discharge point the pulp hasbecome a slightly moist concentrate readyfor the first stage of smelting.

Hitherto dewatering at the Mill has beendone with filters of the Inside Drum type-that is, the pulp is picked up on the insideof the revolving drum and the vacuum drawsthe water outward through a filter cloth.The new unit !itstalled last month is theOutside Drum type-the pulp is picked upon the outside of the drum and the water

'is drawn inward through the cloth,The men at the Mill expect several

advantages from the new type of machine.It will allow a longer drying period for itsload of pulp due to its lower point of dis-charge, and removal of water toward theinside of the drum should require less power.It has a larger surface area. Whereas thefilter cloth must be changed about everytwo months on the Inside Drum type, it isthought that a cloth on the Outside Drumunit will last a great deal longer. Whetheror not these and other advantages will offsetthe known advantages of the Inside Drumtype remains to be seen. In the meantimethe Inside Di'um machines carry on as usual.

Takes a Big BlanketThe accompanying pictures were taken

during installation and testing of the OutsideDrum filter. In the first snap the filtercloth is being fitted to the drum: 1812 feetwide and 48 feet long, it would make a lotof pup tents. Perched on top are Basil Langand Andy Anderson. and the miscellaneousfitter down below is Pete Collin. The

'second picture shows the filter on a test run,dropping its load of concentrate on to a con-veyor belt: completing one revolution everyfour minutes, it will dewater almost 900 tonsof concentrate in 24 hours. The third snapshows how the filter cloth is tied into positionwith 9000 feet of continuous bright steel wire.

Every day of the week, somewhere in Inco.an important new development, either tech-nical or mechanical, is being tried out. Itsa show that's never over, thanks to theCompany's ceaseless search for bettermethods. So liere' good luck to OutsideDrumrnay it accomplish what is hoped ofit.

Mining GivesLivelihood ToMillion People

Last year 100,000 persons were directlyemployed in Canadian mines, Dr. H. L.Keenleyside, deputy minister of mines andnatural resources, told the Sudbury branchof the Canadian Institute of Mining andMetallurgy in an address on the miningindustry. When dependents and companiesserving the mines are added, he said, thelivelihood of more than 1,000,000 people isinvolved.

Without the mining industry, Dr. Keenley-side said, Canada's economic potential wouldconsist of a narrow strip of settled agricul-tural land along the United States border.The life of Canadians is affected more bymining than by any other industry with theexception of agriculture.

The importance, and responsibility, ofmining to Canada's internal economy couldbe illustrated, he said, by the impact of thetaxes its people would have to pay if the40 per cent, of railroad freight representedby mining products were taken away fromthe country's railroads.
