TIRED BALADES RELIEF On September 26, something new was introduced at Expo. Four little rolling trains were brought down from Mount Royal, a loan by the city of Montreal to replace the broken-down balades on ferry service from the Victoria parking to Place d’Accueil. The Minister of Sports and Youth for France, visited Expo. He went to the French Pavilion but not before going to the Olympic House where he could admire the statue of the Finnish runner Paavo Nurmi. A pioneer-style trek from Death Valley, California to Montreal entered its final leg as a tired mule train camps down in St. Philomène, 20 miles south of the city. Ten cowboys and 22 mules, were now fairly close to the final destination they had been aiming at for 18 months: Expo 67. At the Soviet Pavilion, a Belarus delegation debated openly with the press, followed by a concert performed by artists of the Republic. Nine pavilions of French speaking countries launched a marathon contest for the youth visitors. Those interested had to visit these pavilions and be back the following Saturday to answer a questionnaire. The questions pertained to the nine countries and answers were in the pavilions. Another well deserved reward for Expo: The American Direct Mail Advertising Association gave a trophy to a non-American for the first time. Expos Public Relations Department, received it for his brilliant campaign directed to education field. The campaign is credited for the large number of American students and families visiting Expo.
