SEL SS A SE THE DAILY TIMES.GAZETTE SATURDAY, MAY 29, 1948 EST NEWS OF THE COUNTY TOWN OF WHITBY Business Office: Miss G. Macpherson. Editor: Robert Corbett, phone 2589 Phone 703, All Departments Ten More Girls From Nazi Labor Camps Find Homes At Whitby Ontario Hospital \ a Ten Lithuanian girls, displaced persons, products of Nazi labor camps, arrived at Whitby station yesterday morning. They were on their way to take up positions at the Ontario Hospital here. A cordial rece ption awaited them with Dr. D. R. Fletcher, Dr. William Cardwell, William McIntyre of the hospital staff and Mrs. C. Co Baxter and Miss Blanche Cendric of the Oshawa Employment Service office on hand to greet them. Two nurses frogn the hospital were also present to Assist the girls. | The young ladies were very tired after their long journey, - They had | been up all night, they said, and had not had the benefit of sleepers from Montreal. They had an un. eventful passage to Canada on the "Marine Falcon." } Only one or two of them spoke any English, but Miss Biruta Grin- manis and Miss Melania Zabyck of | the hospital staff were on hand to i make them welcome and interpret. | These two Latvian girls had come to Whitby with a similar party last March 11. They speak good | English, dress smartly and are now | thoroughly familiar with life here. | As they talked with animation to the newcomers, smiles lit up faces at finding immediate friends in al strange country. Miss I. Zylic,| graduate nurse of the hospital, was | also present to act as interpreter. After posing for a picture, the party was conducted to the hos- pital where they were given break- fast. In age they range from 19 to 27. All were victims of the Nazis and forced to labor in Ger- man camps. Two arrivals got off in Oshawa while others went on to points west of here. Tuelr arrival in Canada was di- rectly under the supervision of the Employment Office and Mrs. Bax- ter. Like the previous arrivals, this party will do work as nurses' aldes. They will have medical examina- tions, be given rooms today and equipped with uniforms. Names of the girls are Danute Barsketyte, Monica Cuicelyte, Ona Dalindaite, Liuda and Danute Laugalyte, Zita and Vanda Lukosevicus, Elena Morkunaite, Magdalena Petraus- kaite and Terese Kartabicuite. Though tired, the girls were abso- lutely delighted to have finally arrived "home." They hdd been accompanied from Montreal by Miss A. G. Dunham of the Toronto Employment Service. Everything is being done by the Cntario Hospital and the Employ- ment Service to make the girls welcome and happy. They, in turn, have much to contribute to Can- ada. Most of them are well edu- cated, though only one spoke Eng- lish. One had been a dressmaker for two years; one a nurse's aide; others had taken courses in domes- tic science; others have various skills which will be an asset to the hospital and to their new home- land. Increase In Drunkeness Should Be/(zood Reason To Bar Liquor Store In Whitby Believi! that thére - is : much more to be:said .publely on the question df establishing! a uor store in Whitby, Rev. I 'T. Darnell proposes to deal with 'this subject in his sermon tomorrow evening at the Baptist Church. (A resolution of the town council asking that a liquor store be established in Whit- by is now being considered by the Liquor Control Board of Ontario.) Asked why he thought this sub- ject should be brought before his congregation, Mr. Darnell told The Times-Gazette, "The marked in- crease in drunkenness in our prov- ince is one of the most discourag- ing trends of our provincial life, If figures tell any story at all, surely it is disquieting to reflect that in 1942 there were 17,622 convictions for drunkenness, and in 1946 there were 20,608 conviction Tor this of- fence." "Every community in our prov- ince has felt the influence of the attitude taken by our Provincial Government to the liquor question.

The minister of the Baptist Church, feeling keenly that this is a major concern of all Christian citizens, will speak Sunday evening on the subject: "Does Whitby need another liquor store?" With court- esy and respect to all, the minister proposes to present the other side of this subject from that which the town council reflect in their resolution, | purchased by Dr. C. R.

Three girls of the staff of the hospital who could greet them in their own language were on hand. These girls are well educated but victims of European chaos. They were delighted to join ten of their compatriots already here. (See story in "Lithuanian Girls Arrive At Ontario Hospital | Whitby by On- --Photo by Marjorie G.

The game was played at Brooklin before®! a good attendance. Outplayed by Brooklin in most depart« ments, the game tended to be one-sided except for Whitby's only rally in the first of the sixthg _ = and seventh when Whitby's only | five runs 'were scored, F. Brown, pitching for Brooklin, showed good form right through the game while T, Mayne for the Le- gion seemed to tire as the game progressed, By the time the Legionnaires have taken the field once or twice more they may well be a team to reckon with through the balance of the schedule.
