pS" 1 Si Tuesday, January 7, 1969 Ottawa Journal CLOTHES OFF' Bomb Blast At HS In Montreal MONTREAL (CP) This city's first bombing of 1969, at a secondary school in westend No-tre-Dame-de-Grace Monday night, was caused by "a very small charge," police said. Sgt. Robert' Cote, head of the Montreal police bomb squad, said the explosion at the Ecole Secondaire St Luc at about 9 p.m. caused some superficial damage to an outside wall of the school and smashed 10 windows. The bomb exploded while about 500 evening class students were taking language courses at the French-language Roman Catholic school.

There were no injuries. Sgt. Cote said the bomb had been placed near the outlet of a fuel oil tank, but the tank had sustained no damage. Most of the 50 incidents involving bombs in Montreal last year have been associated with labor unrest MILK FUND WILL HELP HER Neighbor Smothers Flames Engulfing Woman The clear thinking and swift! action of a Centre Town woman may have saved the life of her apartment neighbor. 'Her neighbor.

Miss Frances is now listed in fair condition in Civic -Hospital where she Is being treated for third degree burns to 30 per cent of ner body. Miss Skead had been preparing soup in the kitchen of her second floor James Street apartment Monday afternoon when her clothes caught fire. The 53 -year -old woman's cries for help were heard by Mrs. Bernice Empey who has an apartment on the same floor. She rushed down the corridor and wrapped a blanket around Miss Skead who was by this 'time engulfed in flames.

Mrs. Empey then took the trembling woman back into her apartment and covered her' with a sheet She called the fire department and then put out a small Are' in the kitchen. It is believed the sleeve of Miss Skead's synthetic garment caught fire on the element of the stove, i Miss Skead; a nurse, had been sick for some time. She lived alone. "It was about 1.15 when I heard someone scream," Mrs.

Empey recalled afterwards. "When I looked out all I could see was a ball of fire. "I grabbed the blanket, ran down the hall and smothered her in the blanket," she said. "She had nothing on it looked as though her clothes had been burned off her hair had also been burned off. "I'm glad she's "going to be all right I guess it was Just, luck I was there." I v'l MRS.

BERNICE EMPEY DATE SET FOR SENTENCE which deals Candidly with 12 pa tients at the Warrendale centre near Toronto, was produced and directed by Allan King. The Warrendale centre since has been closed. Indian Girl, 8, Must Work In Construction for Livelihood By CARROLL HOLLAND Naganrma is an eight-year- old girl in Tanjore, India, who labors at a construction site to keep her family alive. Daily she carries heavy, un-wieldly baskets of mud, stones and sand on her head up a shaky rope ladder, to where the roofs of two and three' storey buildings are being com pleted. Her body is tough, for she has known this strenuous work for several years, and now takes home as much pay as an adult 30 cents a da v.

It estmated that 70 per cent of the children in India now go to school, a significant government achievement. NO EDUCATION But Nagamma has never been to school and probably will never have the leisure to learn, for she is the sole supporter of her parents and grand mother. Help her to bear her adult responsibilities by a contribu tion to the Cup of Milk fund which will provide her with a daily cup of protein-rich Canadian milk. Just $1 will buy 100 cups of milk for distribution by the Unitarian Service Committee, a non-profit, non-denominational organization. Most children in rural vil lages in India have already assumed grown-up duties 'be fore Canadian children are even in kindergarten.

From the time they are three or four, they will take over caring for the youngest child, clean the family hut and carry food and water to their parents working in the fields. It leaves little time for personal development. KEY MONEY Two small shoeshine boys in Seoul, Korea, are saving their earnings to help their widowed mother raise enough "key money" to move out of their squatters' hut into a room in a real building. "Key money" is a lump payment required to move into a room, after which no rent is charged as the landlord loans his money out at high interest rates. But it takes a long time to raise the $75 to $200 charged for one room in a building where the only water supply IS JJUlIip uuunuc uwu vv tenants.

Cup of Milk dollar donations will help youngsters such as these who are trying hard to better their ways of life under conditions most of us can't imagine. WHERE TO DONATE Please send or bring your donation to The Journal, 237 Queen Street Ottawa. Cheques should be made out to The Cup of Milk fund. Receipts will be issued.
