ing my grandboys, being
aimost torn limb from limb
by mosquitoes at a lake up
north, and being thoroughly
whipped at golf by some old
guys who should be in nurs-
ing homes but can still hit the
pill right up the middle.

Highly recommended is
Farley Mowat's account of
his personal World War Il.
ts title alone would have
made me read it. It’s called
And No Birds Sang, bor-
rowed with a slight change
from Keats’ ballad, La Belle
Dame Sans Merci.

First part of the book is
typical Mowat, very readable
but merely an account of the
training and bumbling ex-
perienced by the average
Canadian soldier, and

* sprinkled with a few highly
improbable incidents.

But when Mowat gets his
feet into the real war, the in-
vasion of Sicily, the brutal
fighting up through “‘sunny’”
Italy, where the men were
half-frozen most of the time,
he hits his stride, and I don’t
think he’s ever written any-
thing better. .

No one could have written
this book who was not there.
He conveys with chilling ac-
curacy the exhaustion, the
bitterness, the dogged cour-
age, and, yes, the wry humor
of the real fighting men ina
campaign that had little of
the drama and dash of the in-
vasion of France. Just tough,
bloody fighting over range

book, and a good read.

Alex Campbell I knew. We
grew up in the same town,
Perth, Ontario, Alex's father
had been killed in the first
World War., From the time
he was a nipper, he wanted
revenge. He joined the
militia as soon as he was old
enough, and by the time 1}
was in high school, he had a

his friends, Major Alex
Campbell, was in his unit,
and died just as he would

single-handed,, hopeless
charge against a German

Alex used to help train our
high school cadet corps,
ferociously but with an
underlying decency. A few
years before, he had been a

ball team, a vast man with

anything or anyone. I'll bet

-he was the happiest man in
the country when Canada
declared. war on Germany.
And he died exactly as he
would have wished, hurling
his bulk against machine-
guns instead of opposing
linesmen,

Another author I
discovered this’ summer was
Leo Simpson. He Jives in the
village of Madoc, Ontario,
and I knew of him, but
hadn't read his novels, prob-
ably due to the incredible in-
eptitude of Canadian
publishers when it comes to
promoting good books.

He is an excellent writer,
much more literate than the
famous Farley Mowat, who
knows how to promote his
own books and keep his
name alive in the papers with
various stunts and burning
causes,

I managed to grab two of
Simpson’s novels and read
them straight through. They

Mowat seems to have put
himself back into the mind

and movingly reveals the
anger, the bewilderment, the

Narrowly missing death

PWA image change
to be a gradual one

When so many com-
panies change their corpor-
ate image, logo and station-
ery, the following scenario
comes to mind: a flashy (and
expensive) new design from a
prestigious consultant, hasty

Not so, for Pacific West-
ern Airlines Ltd.

In fact, incremental. is
the only way to describe
PWA's new image change, to
be implemented on its air-
craft and paper over the next
three years, said PWA's
public relations man David
Jacox, : Z

.PWA — developéd. the
corporate “new look of the
80's” campaign timed to coin-
elde with the airline's recent
mergers and the delivery of

new livery.

One of the reasons why
the new logo was simplified
and modernized was the
growing cost and incompati-
bility in extending the image «
to new needs; explained
Jacox. It will retain the PWA
_wing’s basic virtues, but will
be bolder and simpler, while
eliminating color conflicts,
