Friday, JuJy 14, 1972 Second From page one I About 23 miles southwest of Renfrew, Toronto alderman Ho- race Brown was injured when his car crashed into a rock cut during the heavy rain. He was admitted to Ottawa Civic Hospital with a fractured jaw and broken nose. Winds gusted as high as 60-miles-an-hour in the Manotick and Kars areas, uprooting trees and forcing Ontario Provincial Police to post a hazardous driving warning ra the Kars-North. Gower area. "A heavy wagon and several large trees were blown over on the farm of Albert Scharfe on the Kars Road near Watterson's Corners.

The trees narrowly missed the family's house and barn. Workers manning telephones in the Ottawa civic complaints department were prepared for the worst in the way of flooded basements but reported "noth ing spectacular nothing un usual."

The Ottawa Journal Dog-lovers concerned, angered over' roundworm death link By RICHARD JACKSON Journal Parliamentary Staff Dog-lovers don't know what's hit them after the death, reported by the University of Ottawa and General Hospital pathologists, of an 18-month-old boy from1 a roundworm infection picked up from dogs.

Some ere literally furious that dogs should be "under attack," as they phrase it. Others are concerned that the tragedy will encourage, as they describe it, a "hatcthe-dog campaign." As of most recent count dog-lovers versus dog-hater four letters and almost-too-many-pbone-calls-to-count, the dogs had more defenders than detracters Perhaps the most expressive of the lot, certainly the one most emotionally involved has been Mrs. Margaret E. Copley. She confesses to being, as she laughs, "a bit of a dog nut." it's not their fault, but their owners'.

She is so meticulous about "good dog housekeeping" that when she walks her two poodles she carries a small plastic bag and spade to clean up after them. That way, she says, "no lawns are no. neighbors get mad, and no child ever will be- come- infested with roundworms." Not that her poodles arc in fested. They're not. They've been wormed and since their puppy days, nave oeen given proper training.

It's just, she insists, that she about her dogs, her neighbors and even strangers who live in other sections ol the city where sometimes she walks the poodles. But to play it safe when she doesn't walk them on the Ot tawa River Parkway or out in the country, she takes along a She says that if dogs offend, plastic bag and shovel. Chess match From page onej The U.S. camp plans to put before the appeals committee the reasons why it feels the sec-'ond game should be replayed, and has threatened that unless the protest is upheld Fischer will not continue the match. American aides themselves admit in private that the move has virtually no chance of suc-cess.

Icelandic and Soviet sources agree. Fischer is demanding that the game he forfeited Thursday night, when he failed to turn tip within an hour of the start, be replayed on Sunday when the third game is scheduled. Fischer's failure to appear set a precedent in world championship history and left him trailing 0-2 in the 24-game series. The 29-year-old challenger boycotted the second game because' of va wrangle over the of television cam eras around the stage. Thirty- fiveminutes after his clock was set in motion for him, the American businessman holding the television rights agreed to re moval of the cameras.

Fischer then demanded the 35 minutes be restored to him. when this demand was refused by the chief arbiter of the match, Lothar Schmid, Fischer decided to stay away. Spassky was declared the winner when a full hour had elapsed. Even though the organizers of the contest have become cyni cally accustomed to Fischer's almost daily threats, there is considerable pessimism here about the prospects of the "match of the century" contin uing. In The Hague, Dr.

Max Euwe, president of the World 'Chess Federation, expressed pessimism that the match would be completed and remarked: am very sad about Mr. Fis cher's constant disruptions." Delayed mail clear by weekend (By The CP) The post of fice said today that up to 9,000 bags of overseas mail stalled in Montreal by the just-ended St Lawrence River dock tie-up will be cleared by the weekend. A spokesman said the post of fice has been into a backlog of about 30 containers of mail with up to 300 bags each that collected during the tie-up which began May 17 and ended last Monday. The backlog is surface mail that arrived by ship bound for inland points much of it parcels and newspapers. The spokesman said should be back to normal by munuay.

I she laughed, 'when people see me with that gear under a sun bat, with a cane, they think I'm a bit odd But I believe in treating both dogs and people decently." To give documentary evidence of her "portable dog toilet," she posed for a picture, plastic bag and shovel in hand. Smart property-owners, she suggested, who object to dogs might hang a plastic bag and shovel on a post or tree with a sign "if your dog must then please use the facilities." Mrs. Copley not so long ago was a senior civil servant in the bracket and suffered three heart attacks. "I was working an 18-hour day," she relates, "and learned why men drop dead.

It's the drive, drive, drive of hyper tension. For a time, after the heart at tacks she was "lost" Then, she exulted, I'l got my i "Now they get me up bright and early. "They mage me go for walks, They compel me to meet people other people with "They keep me interested and alive. "There was the time I could have sat down and cried myself i to death, but the two poodles wouldn't let me get away with it" Now, getting down to cases specifically the case of the Ot tawa" child victim of round worms Mrs. Copley says any decent dog-owner can detect any infestation "Visual examination of the dog's stool should be made.

If roundworms are present, the stool, jelly-like, will be pinking and white and the puppy itself will be listless, its coat dull' Then it's a case, at once, for the veterinarian. She suggests too that children, as well as dogs, should be under restraint But she does not attempt to argue that parks, sidewalks and even the Mall are being fouled. She has a solution or at least an approach to the broblem. "Get the -itinerant youth end their dogs off the Mall, the Arts Centre lawns and out of the parks," she urges. "As a taxpayer, I cannot take my own dogs into town with me nor walk them in a number of parks but this long-haired tribe of hippies, for some rea son, seems to have the run of the city, dogs and all."
