Enterprising French Teacher
Here On Round The World Tour
Guy Gecomte. a young trench
teacher from Paris who helped stu- 1
dents at the summer session of the
University of Alberta parlez vous
their Francaise in Banff this sum
mer, breezed through Fairbanks j
this week on part of the round-the* ■
would tour he has scheduled for
himself.
Lecomte first became interested
in traveling during his stretch in
Africa as a 2nd Lt. in the French
Air Force, and originally came to
the new world to teach French at
McMaster University in Hamilton,
Ontario. He decided to do some
traveling while he'was here in or
der to see as much of the continent
as possible.
So one day he extended his
thumb, and found himself hitch-hik
ing all the way from Maine to
Washington via Florida and Cali
fornia, with a trip to Mexico sand
wiched in between, and ending up
in Banff just in time for summer
school. ,
It was in Banff that he met Jim
Brierley, a young law student from
Montreal, in his final year at Mc
Gill University. Brierley had toured
his way to Banff for the summer
session to study painting, and. like
Lecomte, wanted to see Alaska.
Brierley is also a seasoned trav
eler, having taken a tour of Eu
rope in 1951 and spending two
months in the Canadian Arctic just
recently.
So after answering ads in local
papers wanting riders heading up
the Alaska highway, a device they
(Sailed a “glorified thumb nail,’’
they arrived in Dawson City in
time for Discovery Day.
In Dawson they met Art Lutro,
who made arrangements for them
to ride into Fairbanks with Olga
Steger and Pat Lawler, who were
also enjoying the historic celebra
tion.
The two left via Pan American
Tuesday morning for Whitehorse,
Lecomte to finish his world tour,
Brierley to return to Montreal. But
both are looking forward to coming
again.
Brierley describes his Montreal
home as a bit unique. It is a two
language city, with half the people
