Sea-going Editor Has Nojssy Job

MONTREAL, May l6 - (GP) -- Editors ashore who think publish- ing a paper has its ups-snd-dotvn! should try turning one out aboard a ship pitching and tossing in a North Atlantic twister, says Allan Williams, editor cf the Ocean Times. Williams, a middle-aged Liver- pool native, publishes the eight- pege daily (when ho can n! enough newsprint) aboard the Ounard White Star liner Ascanla. Ho proudly makes the claim that the Times has appeared daily for 15 years when the liner is st sea. except for the war years. Editorial room of the Ocean Times is a- 10-foot square cabin on the Asctmifs port side. Here Editor Williams sets his type and prints the daily, then distributes it among the passengers. Williams has the biggest headaches during the winter season on the Atlantic. "Its pretty hard trying to get s newspaper out when you can't stand up and haven't the room to get seasick," ha said. Williams gets his news from the wireless room and then condemns it to fit his daily. , ‘rhero is no charge for the Times but it is a handsome revenue maker, heavily stocked with ads from British firms during publicat- ion on the eastbound voyage, and with Canadian ads the other way.

ext ~of the account of the crash as appeared in the Lubec Herald. follows:

“investigators of the Federal Transport Department at Toronto today sought an explanation of the engine failure which Saturday sent Robert Weber, 23, formerly of Guelph, plunging to his death on the perimeter of Melton Airport.

"The young airman was leaving the field on the final test of a sur- plus US .Air Force trainer when the engine spiuttered and, from an altitude of 800 feet, the machine plummeted toward a stretch of grass beside the highway.

“The Vultee monoplane was split into several pieces by the force of th impact. One wheel was thrown

feet from the main fuselage section. The engine was wrench- ed loose and landed 10 feet away.

Deserves Credit

" ‘He certainly deserved credit he- cause he saved the lives of those children’, the eye-witness said.

"The pilot was barely breathing when he was lifted from the wreck. and he Was rushed unconscious to St. Joseph's Hospital, Toronto.

"Robert Weber was the oldest of a family of seven children of Dr. G. Harold Weber. Guelph dentist, and Mrs. Weber, 127 King Street.

"Joining the Royal Canadian Air: Force, on the day he was 17V.- yeers of age, he started his training in Guelph, and was trained at sev- eral other air force schools in Canada. He was the youngest pilot to graduate under the British Em- pire Training Plan, when he re- ceived hls wings at Brantford. Ho was also the youngest commission- ed officer in Canada when he was placed on an overseas draft. How- ever, he never resched that goal, being based at Charlottetown, P. E. I., in the coastal command.

Served As Captain

"The 23-yehr-old youth held a transport pilot's license, and hsd been at Malton for only slx weeks, having previously served as a cap- tain with the R-imcuski Air Lines, and had been flying with the Mari- time Central Airways and the Sturgeon Air Linea. He hsd been in civilian ﬂying since 1945 when Re gas discharged from the R. C.

"Flying hsd always been his pet hobby ever since he was old enough to know anything about it. His father had flown with the youth- ful alr victim on Good Friday.

"Surviving are his widow, the former Margaret Mcinnis, of Char- lottetown, P. E, I., a S-month-old son; his parents, Dr. and Mrs. G. H. Weber; four brothers and two sisters, Donald, Jack, Richard, Wil- liam, Mary ‘and Sylvia, all of Guelph.
