French sojces made no secret of the fact that troops sent out to hunt doTj) terrorists were ordered to shoot first. Reports indicated French Legionnaires were shooting all known terrorists found bearing arms. Whole towns and villages were being screened by troops in the t house-to-house anti-terrorist drive.

Grants Pass, who attending an interna tional Boy Scout jamboree at Ngara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.) BY LORAN HASSETT . Miagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, C;6tada An international feel ing seems to cover everything rt i;he Jamboree. When you rise inthe morning you can hear the shcutsuof a dozen different languages. During a church ser vice you see a dozen different nationalities; some white, yel low, tan, black, yet all know th same sounds, songs, and words. Then at night, when the voices die away, an American blH a taps that most are used to in0the U. S.( a Hawaiian strums a guitar, here an accord ion, while a Scot plays a Scot ish tune. He found Montreal to be a l-ge and interesting city, pos sibly Interesting because it is the foreign city most of us have ever seen. The first thing we Noticed was the rail crossing sign ofCanada. On one board it reads the usual type as seen . in America, on the other it is written in French. Tour of City fter eating in Montreal we boarded buses and were off across the city. Our guide was a frenchman who used French asukis usual language, but could - speak very fluent and frequent ly quite funny English. We stop ped first at the. Cathedral of Noire Dame where we saw, und errepair, such things as an altar which took two men's life- time's to build. It 'As ali hand carved from native trees and is some 80 to 90 feet in height including the grillwork. .. were taken to the base of the mountain for which the city received its name, Mount Royal. The city is built in a circle around this mountain and from the top you can see the whole ci We rode to the top in a multi-seated cab, drawn by two horses. Upon descending from Mount Rcttal we were taken by Joseph's Cratory. The Cratory is a place of Catholic Pilgrimage. The pilgrims came here and went upwith a prayer on each step, of which there are 90.-After that we were taken through the business end of town and shown themore famous stores of Can ada's largest city plus a short sictf? trip to Westmont to see the "Millionaire's Row" there. We boarded the train at 9 p.m. andupon waking were told that St. Catherines was near. We ate in Toronto, went the short distance to St. Catherines and boarded buses. Within three hours our tents were pitched onthe jamboree site. - The first night, as usual,- was' th worst. There was, for some reason, an unusual load of mois tuHt in the air and the temper ature wasa round 80 to 85. When we awofe in the morning the temperature was lower, but the tent was completely coated in sid and out with a layer of dew. Since then the air has become druch drier nd the days slightly . cooler, even with the rain we had on Aug. 22. The first day of the jamboree, officially, was Aug. 20.. On that day at 2 the entire camp was put in formation on the stadium grounds until 4. You could see the flags, across the . crowd, of some 62 nations of the world. Visit Points of Interest Yesterday was, spent at Niag ara falls. We saw the interesting points of the Niagara River from nearly Lake Ontario to Lake Erie, the falls, the Whirlpool, and the historical monuments and buildings of importance along the. way. The more important of these were the" monument to General Brock who defeated the U.S. during April of 1812 in Ontario and the floral clock of the On tario Power Commission. That evening we saw trie lights on the falls and the places of inter est, including the "Maid of the Mist" boat ride around Niagara Pools. We are formed in a giant rec tangle. The camp is formed of two troops of four patrols each containing eight men who sleep in the allotted tents. Each of the tents is painted with the patrol emblem and a version of the Region XI patch. Our gateway is facing right across the road from the Ni agra river which has a small town on the U.S. shore about threa-quarters of a mile . away. The gateway itself is made up on the Region XI log and axe in the top-center, with the four states and Alaska grouped around the edges of the gate way. Each state has the major cities and products placed upon it. .
