One case of spinal meningitis, a sort of group cousin of infantile paralysis, was reported today to Dr. McKay. Clarence Albertson, a young man boarding at 351 Arthur street, has given clinical evidence of hav- ing spinal meningitis, Mr, Me¢Kay, however, hopes that bacteriological examination of spinal fluid and oth- er bodily secretions will indicate another condition. Specimens have already been sent to the ministry of health at Toronto and a report may be received today. However, with every symptomie evidence of the young man having the disease, the Board of Health has quarantined those living at the house and isolated the patient, The Oshawa Hospital was found too full to accommodate him, and an appeal to both the general and isolation hospitals of Toronto was turned down for a similar reason. This, Dr. McKay points out makes the matter of an isolation hospital for Oshawa one of abso- lute urgency, Temporary arrange- ments should be made without de- lay, and those followed up with gomething of a permanent nature, IN FAVOR OF 120.2 for 1926 and 128.8 for 1927.

SUBWAY (Continued from page 1) In the interview which Col, Chap- pell granted The Oshawa Dally Times, the subway development was described as an imperative necessity if the city is to make the most of its opportunities, "I think that the level crossing should not be tolerated by any mun- icipality where the physical condi- tions allow it to be overcome," Col Chappell pointed out. "The building of a subway unde: the C. N, R, tracks at Simcoe South is entirely feasible from both an en- gineering and economic standpoint The present level crossing is bad from the standpoint of safety or faci lities of operation, equall important to the railway as to the city itself.' Col, Chappell,, before joininz General Motors executive staff, was town engineer of Oshawa and speak: from long familiarity with the pro posal which has heen up before foi action, in his opinion, the elimination of level crossings in the larger muni- cipalities should be a matter ir which the Dominion Board of Rail way Commissioners would take ar active rather than a passive inter est. He believes that the Board itself should order the elimination of grade crossings over important thorough fares the moment a municipality': growth reaches a certain point coupled with a census of such grade crossings' use. Col. Chappell then pointed ou what Oshawa could do with Oshaw: Creek and the meadows which, bol dering it, already make a wild park land from the north of the cily Us where the creek mingles its walter with Lake Ontario. "yision in the civic sense,' he stated, "is mot a matter of seein: things that will come to fruitition i | one man's life, but in visioning tht growth of a beautiful thing throug! generations. "Oshawa, however, can secure the Oshawa Creek meadows and by ap propriating each year something like $5,000 gradually build it up inte one of the Dominion's most beauti- ful park systems. "The natural, as opposed to the | formal, would be best emphasised 74 [The creek itself would be the point i of emphasis in the picture. Three or four dams might be built along it | course, thus providing alternate weirs and rapids. "part of the system is already ip being. At the north, Alexandra Park and the Golf Course. Then the ten- nis clubs' grounds, Centre stree! school, and the new Rotary Park playground. With so many parks al- ready in the city's hands, the rest could easily be linked up with, at the end, the most important of a! which is Lakeview Park and the city's harbor." ORDER BOYS OFF MEMORIAL PARK (Continued from page 1) countered by opinions to the effect | that the memorial with its ever- burning lamps and garden of faith- ful flowers adequately expresses the city's love, reverence and pride to wards its fallen sons. The resi of the | park, they point out should be used as such--even as a playground un- til the eity can provide such for | growing children.

F. Hind in police court this morn- ing was adjourned until Thursday, October 6, after considerable evid- ence had been taken. Mr. Annis of Conant. and Annis defended Boe, while J. P, Mangan appeared on be- half®of the complainant, Giller, The case was one which was adjourned a week ago. The charge was the aftermath of an accident which occurred at Mary and Elgin streets on September 6, about 9 o'clock, when the complain- ant's car was struck by an automo- bile driven by Boe in an allegedly reckless manner, The charge was laid after efforts had been made on the part of the complainant to ar- rive at a satisfactory settlement with the Johnson Taxis, In police court this morning Giller stated that the defendant was travelling on Mary street when he struck his car, At the time of the accident, the complainant stated, his car, (Giller's) was at the corner making the turn, when the Boe auto 'oming up at an allegedly fast rate of speed and struck him, doing dam- 1ge estimated by a mechanie, of $60. Considerable discussion took place hetween the complainants and coun- els in regard to distances and meas- urements, ete., of both cars from the 'urhs. P. C, Terry investigated the acci- lent about a half hour after it oc- curred and when he arrived on the scene he could find little evidence of skid marks. He did not test the brakes of either cars due to dam- ges, he stated. Both parties report- ed to him at the scene. Boe, the defendant, when called old the court he was 20 years of ize and had only secured his chauf- feur's license a week previous to the wecident, He had, however, heen driving car previous to that, al- hough he did not have any previous perience at driving vehicles used 'or conveying passengers for com- yensation. He admitted driving his car at a speed of about 20 to 25 miles per hour at the time of the iceident in approaching the inter- ection of Mary and Elgin streets. He gave rather conflicting evidence n regard to the distance in which Ye stopped his car following the rash and in the distance in which he might have stopped.
