I’m Neyer — S8V that my letter was er best of cknowledged and to the mY knowledge there is nothing to indicate in a public way that Dr. Bethune was born there and was also a patient at the TB hospital where he invented a number of surgical instruments. Very briefly I knew Dr. Bethune when he returned from Spain. He was a very exhuasted man: nevertheless he under- took to tour Canada from coast to coast to acquaint the public with the truth about the Spanish civil war. And from that effort he went straight to China, well informed in advance of the very difficult’ conditions he would have to work under. For his selfless devotion to the cause of humanity he has long been honored in China. It is therefore very gratifying that you should now seek to have public recognition and acclaim accorded to this great Canadian. * OK OK COMPARISON L.A., Vancouver, writes: IS RUNNING OUT ONLY 2 WEEKS LEFT WE STILL NEED | *8,500 BY JUNE 1 * RUSH YOUR DONATION * PUSH SALE OF CONTEST TICKETS * SPEED THE DRIVE Regarding the sentencing of Quebec writer Pierre Vallieres to 6 months in prison for “contempt of court’’: It seems to me the standard changes here. When a writer attacks one judge and so by inference the juris- dictional system, he is sentenced to prison. But how tender we are about the rights of a Russian writer who demands free speech and goes outside his own country to attack the whole system because that country won't print what he wants printed! He knows the enemies of his country will print it and appar- ently it’s immensely important to him to be acclaimed somewhere. LIBERAL PRAYER Jack Gillbanks, Port Alberni, sent us the poem below which appeared recently in the Alberni Valley Times: Trudeau is my shepherd I shall not want He maketh me lie down on park benches : He leadeth me beside the factories. He restores my doubts in the Conservatives and NDP He guidith me in the path of unemployment Yea, though I walk through the Valley of the Soup Kitchen For his Liberal Party fake I shall still be hungry. I feel evil for they are against me Bennett has annointed my income with taxes And:,my. expenses overun my salary Surely, poverty and hard-living shall follow me All the days of the Liberal administration and I shall live in a rented house forever. 5,000 years ago, Moses said: Pick up your shovel, mount your ass or camel and I will lead you to the promised land 5,000 years later, Pearson said: Lay down your shovel, sit on your ass ee light up a camel, this is the promised land. now if you don’t watch out, Trudeau will take your shovel, sell your camel, kick your ass and take away the promised land. pS— Iam glad I ama Cana- dian, glad that I’m free. T wish I was a little dog apd Trudeau was a tree. ANON — OBITUARY SAPACH, Fred of Vancouver, B.C. Passed away May 521971, age 59 years.

Arrangements - World title challenge in Vancouver chess match Devotees of the game of chess will follow with interest the match between two challengers for the world title being held in Vancouver commencing May 13. The match will be held at UBC. : Soviet Grandmaster Mark Taimanov is to play Robert Fischer of the United States here while at the same time other challengers Geller and Korchnoi, both of the USSR, will fight it out in Moscow; Grand- master Bent Larsen of Denmark meets Grandmaster Uhlmann of the German Democratic Republic in the Canary Islands and ex-world champion Tigran Petrosyan is to play versus Huebner of West Germany in Seville, Spain. In Vancouver the scheduled days of play are May 13, 16, 18, 20, 23, 25 27, 30 and June 2 and 4, all of them at -2:30 p.m. Spec- tators will be able to view the MARK TAIMANOV progress of play in a separate room. First player to score 5% points wins the match. The eventual winner of the series will meet chess world champion Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union. Soviet Grandmaster Alexei Suetin describes the U.S.’s Fischer as a player ‘‘who carries out his ideas without false fantasties, staking on high standards of play, tactical art, invariably striving for a struggle to the last.’’ He has become prominent in tournament performance. ; Soviet Grandmaster Mark Taimanov is a pianist by profes- sion. He became a Master of chess at the age of 19, and the title of Grandmaster was conferred upon him when he was 26. There followed a long period in his chess career when, remain- ing at a high level, he failed to find a place among the chess elite fighting it out for the crown. Now he has qualified for the challengers’ elimination round for a second time. Suetin states that in recent years Canadian chess players have scored notable achieve- ments at world team chess championships, and mentions the “up and coming’’ Canadian Duncan Suttles, who won the title of International Grand- master in 1968.
