Medical «d to Israel anniversary tea
■ if
To those who attended am supported the first Medical Aic to Israel Tea in Vancouver, it will probably. come as a s&rprise to realize that ten years have passed smce that event. It was organized to support the bkth of tlie hen infant State of Israel in practicail way, with desperately needed medical materials.
And though ten years have passed, the need has in no way lessened. In he face of the current crisis, with thousands upon thousands of refugees pouring into tiny Israel, we can indeed say that the need is greater now.
The Medical Aid to Israiel Tea h£is now become an established social event in Vancouver. Last year over $1400 was raised at the tea. This year let the greater need be met with a greater response. Plan to attend this event oh Wednesday, August 21st, at the home of Mrs. Esmond Lando, 1499 Angus Drive, and by so doing, help to celebrate and support the 10th Anniversary Medical Aid to Israel Tea. \—L.Z
NEW LOOK
FOR GANDER
Clearing house for the world's notables/ Canada's aeriol gateway is being transfomned into the nation's 'showcase' states feature writer J. E. BelltveaCi In an article appearing in the current Issue of The Star Weiskly.
Gander is one of the few places in the neW world you might properly coil "fabulous;" it is not only a trqns-Atlantic stopping place but a Wilderness city. It is a new and growing community with overtones of suburbia marking the town that has risen suddenly, surprisingly, and Is ^ not yet complete. It is the only place on this continent, one of the few in the world, that Is entirely on airport town.
The Star Weekly article describes jri detail the kaleidoscope of personalities and planes that pass through this airway junction and . describes how Gander's"new look" will make it on airport worthy of welcoming .the world to Canada.
