House Of Lords This Week
By FRASER WIGHTON
LONDON (Reuters) — For the first time in British history, wo- men this week will take their place in the House of Lords with the right to sit and vote on an equal footing with men.
Four women are among 14 “life” peers recently created by Queen Elizabeth for the Upper House, on the government‘s rec= omimendation, as an aspect of constitutional reform.
There was bitter resentment of their invasion of the second chamber—one of the few remain- ing male strongholds of the na- tion—~from some of the 800 nobles
later.
who sit by hereditary right as peers of the United Kingdom. The four life peeresses and the 10 life peers will attend special swearing-in sessions Tuesday and Wednesday so they can be pres- ent at the state opening of Par- liament‘s new session a week
ALL WELL-KNOWN
All four women are well-known public figures, chosen for their record of service to the commu nity. The youngest, Dame Kath» arine Elliot, 55, is the widow of a Conservative el d e r statesman. She was also chairman of the Conservative party‘s local organ- ization.

Soviet JetIiner
HONG KONG (Reuters)-——Sixty- five passengers were killed in the Soviet TU - 104 jetliner which crac‘ied in Russia Friday. the New China News Agency reported Sunday night,
This was the first known crash of a TU-104. which is powered by tw0 turbojets.
Moscow Radio announced the accident Saturday night but did not disclose the number of cas- ualties.
Sixteen dead Were Chinese, in- cluding leading members of a Chinese cultural delegation to Afghanistan and the United Arab Republic.
' “FOREIGN FRIENDS"
The other 49 were described as “foreign friends who had visited China on invitation and foreign experts on their way home trim China.”
An undisclosed number of crew members also died in the disas- ter which occurred 400 miles east of Moscow in the Kanash Region of the Chuva-s autonomous Soviet republic. The sleek airliner was en route from Peitping to Mos- COW.
Four West Germans and one British subject were reported
among the dead. There were no survivsrs.
The New China News Agency did not name any of the foreign casualties but said the Chinese passengers in c l u d e d Cheng Chen-to, head 0f the cultural del- egation and staff members of the ministry of foreign trade and the foreign ministry.
SEATS 50
The TU-104 sea-ts 50 passengers in its de luxe version or 70 to 30 in its tourist version and has a crew of 10.
Moscow Radio said a govern- ment inquiry commission has left for the crash scene. It was set up under the chairmanship of the minister of aircraft production, Mikhail Kihrumichev. and included Marshal Pavel Zhigarev, head of Aeroflot, the Soviet, civil airline.

Fairy Fort Causes Delay In Shannon Airport Extension
LIMERICK, Ireland (A?)— The fairies of Ireland are am- iable people, as iswell known, but not when they get their Irish up.
And since that is where their Irish is right now, goodness knows what’s to be done about extending Shannon’s Interna- tional airport runway in the Irish Republic.
Ambrose Mclnerney, who has the contract to do a bit of earth moving for the extension, told about his troubles Saturday.
The Irish government sent him orders not to disturb the fairy fort on top of Trade’s Hill. Trouble is, the fairies have their fort where the air- port people want to extend the
runway. A useless order, McInerney observed, because his Irish
workmen never would molest a fairy fort anyway. As soon play pattyucake with the devel him- self, they would.
A fairy fort is a sort of a headquarters and community hall. That's where. they have their/ parties and kick the fairy gong around.
Farmer Frank Fahy, said
' that many a midnight the fair-
ies can be heard “chaintping and chattering“ at the fort.
WORRY OVER GOLD
And some think the fairies also are worried about the gold they have buried near the fort. If a bulldozer dug into the treasure there could be troub- b-le, real tremble.
Listen again to Farmer Fahy. Another farmer of the
. region died when he took stones
from a fairy fort to make a wall.
“His hands swalled up. he died and he never finished the wall,” Fahy said. “People here wouldn't even cut a bush on a fairy fort."
“My Life Insurance man did a grand job for me, Ed”
AII talk over the back fence isn't about sport, or politics, or television programs. Very often it’s about such vital things as looking after the famin and having enough money to retire on.
Roman Catho‘rlc Scouters attend: ed service in Borden.
Course members were: Tona‘ Edwards, Arlene Molyncaux.‘ Warren Robinson and En‘cm Stewart, Charlottetown; Rev.
David M‘iuton. Crapaud; Geral-I dine M‘acLean, Melva Fraser.‘ Norman Thompson, Georgetown; Ann MacNeill. Mary Gallant, North Rustico; Henry Landry, George Arsenault. David Gallant Summersidc and Stanley Grov- es of Slemon Park. .
Mrs. R. C. Parent, Commis- sioner for Wolf Cubs, was the course leader. She was assisted by Dorothy MacDonald, Gub- master of Pack “13”, Basilica and Gordon Kerr, Provincial Executive Commission-er. Paul- ine MacDonald was Cook.
How is the airport authority ever to extend the runway to accommodate the big jet air- liners?
Darn-ed if McInerney knows. Why, even if he ignored the government and tried to level the hill with the fort on it, his workers would strike more than likely.
Fraser River Fishermen Have Problem
VICTORIA (OP) Homer Stevens, business agent of the United Fishermen and Allied Workers’ Union, says B.C. has lost more than $2,000,000 since September because Federal Fish- eries Minister J. Angus Ma‘clean refused to do anything “about the salmon glut in the Fraser River.
Mr. Stevens. in a telephonenn- terview Saturday, said B.C. fish- ermen have dumped so many “thousands upon thousands of good salmon that the river bed must be deep in dead fish."
And too many salmon were reaching the spawning grounds, causing much oflthe spawn to rot and pose a threat to next year’s salmon haul.
The glut‘of salmon folloWs the Sept. 18 decision of the BC. Fish- eries Association not to buy any late run sockeye after the end of the month.
Association officials said th re was no market for the rest of t e run, which they described of “in. ferior grade.”
The fishermen denied the fish were not the top quality.
“But the canners won’t take the
