Civic And Regimental Band Presents Final Pop Concert Pre-employment X-Ray Examinations Planned | > By Local Factories An intensive X-ray program is to start in Oshawa next week. Ul- timate objective of the program is to institute a much-needed system of pre-employment examinations whereby an applicant for a job in Oshawa will have to produce med- jcal evidence to the effect that he or she is free from®tuberculosis. Details of the program have been announced by A. E. Johnson, who ' is the president of the South On- tario County TB Association. - Eight years ago a thorough sur- vey was made and 23,00 people were were X-rayed in one week in Osh- awa. Now a similar drive is to start. On Monday a mobile X-ray out- fit will start the new program by visiting several local factories, in- cluding Fittings. Early in May the Association will. be bringing an- other X-ray unit to the city so that everyone in offices, stores and fac- tories can have a free X-ray. Costs are met from the local sale of Christmas Seals, proceeds from which are retained in Oshawa. There will be no charge at all to those people who are X-rayed. When that program has been completed the pre-employment ex- aminations will be put into effect. Health authorities have pointed out that while Oshawa attracts mpew- comers to the city in search of jobs it is of the most vital importance that those newcomers are healthy. Mr, Johnson said that any em- ployer wishing to make arrange- ments for the survey to include his staff should contact either him- self or the secretary of the Associa- tion, Mrs. Hazel Merritt, at 262 Bruce Street. The mobile unit can be sent to plants to take care of groups.

DOUGLAS LANGMAID Director Boys Rescued From Boat In Lake Scugog Port Perry--Two boys in a boat caught in an ice flow for six hours on Lake Scugog were rescued by Messrs. Don Crozier and Everett Prentice on Good Friday. Earl Moore and Edward Tremble, of Oshawa, visiting Mr. and Mrs. Don Crozier sighted the boat and occupants off Prentice's shore early in the afternoon and again late in the evening when they became sus- picious and went for help. The task of breaking the ice around the boat with shovels was truly a job for an ice-breaker. With | steady perseverance and mounting fear of being frozen in the ice floes Don and Everett pushed ahead for one hundred and fifty yards to free the trapped boat and then to return to shore with the boat'in tow about 9:30 pm. The boys were cold, hungry and frightened and had little to say. They were from Toronto, and had stayed a¥ a cottage at Prentice's for the week-end. . FAMOUS COLLEGES Scotland's four universities of{ St. Andrew's Glasgow, Aberdeen |and Edinburgh were all established between 1411 and 1583. .|RUMMAGE SALE -- ST. (Christ Church Will Build Extension To Parish Hall Tenders were considered for an extension to the Parish Hall at a special meeting of the Vestry of Christ Memorial Anglican Church poe on Wednesday evening, April The Chairman of the Building Committee, A. S. Evans, spoke of the urgent heed for mere floor space to accommodate the growing Sun- day School'and said that this pro- posed extension at the south end of the present building with a floor space approximately 38 feet by 38 feet would relieve the present over- crowding. This new building would accommcdate the dally kindergart- en held now in the Parish Hall. It would also be the means of separat- ing the beginners group of the Sun- day School from the junior and senior groups. This was felt to be an essential step due to the differ- ence in conducting worship and instruction for this age group. The members of the Vestry sug- gested various other important uses to which this building would lend itself, such as the Junior Congrega- tion which meets at the same hour- as the Sunday morning service. After a thorough discussion of need and costs and how the pro- posed structure would fit into the plans .for final extension of the church proper, A. S. Evans moved, seconded by F. Wetmore, to pro- ceed with the extension. It was] passed by a large majority. The members of the Vestry ex- pressed their thanks to the'Build- ing Committee for the hours of study given to this project and to Francis Wetmore, who drew all the plans for the construction.

(CP)=-- City parks department is going into the red--paint, that is. They havé started painting the benches in city parks a bright red instead of the usual dull green. MARKS PLANT GROWTH CORNWALL, Ont. (CP) -- The Howard Smith paper mill here has made use of ancient Indian lore to commemorate the growth of the company since 1881. A 51-foot, red cedar totem pole, carved by Edgar Thibodeault, has been erected in front of the plant. The world's largest livestock market, the Union stockyards at Chicago, employs about 25,000 workers. High light of the program was "the magnificent '"Hellelujah Chor- us" from Handel's 'Messiah, skillfully and expressively played under the baton of Bandmaster Jack Broadbent. In spite of the fact that some key musicians were unable to be present, the band gave a splendid rendition of this fine piece of religious music. Close behind it in audience ae- ceptance was Von Suppe's "Poet and Peasant" overture, excep- tionally well done in all sections of the band. Bandsman Jack Lee received an ovation for his trombone solo 'The Trumpeter' played with the fine technique of which he is a master, and the applause of the audience showed its keen appreci- ation. He was followed by the trombone novelty '"'Slidin' Easy", also well received. Bandsman Tom Broadbent took the solo role with the English "Post Horn Galop" and was warmly encored for a fine effort. The march for the evening was W. Rimmer's "Punchinello" and the first overture on the program was a new composition by H. Lancaster, "The Lonely Mill" heard for the first time at these concerts and well worthy of a re- peat performance. The '"Moon- light Madonna' poem by Zdenko* Fibich, arranged for brass band by Lieut. John Ord Hume, was another of the delightful selec tions on the varied program. "Ne~ tional Rhapsody" a medley of British national airs, and Sandon, tune for the hymn "Lead Kindly Light" completed the presenta- tion by the band. Jeanne Pengelly, well-known as operatic and concert soprano gave a delightful program which revealed the range, power and beauty of her glorious voice. Her opening number, unaccompanied, was the negro spiritual "Were You There When They Crucified My .Lord" sung with marvellous expression in which some of the words came- almost as a sob. Then Miss Pengelly sang an aria "Oh King of Kings, Allaldjgh'" {from Handel's 'Esther', which brought out all the quality of her voice and her skill in interpretation. In her second group, Miss Pengelly sang three spring _songs, 'April Thoughts' (T. J. Cranford); 'Bon Jour Ma Belle" a delightfully naive number, and the operatic selection 'The Voice of Spring." She was warmly applauded and responded to the insistent demands of the audience with 'Brother Will, Brother John" and 'One Fine Day" from Madam Butterfly." This was one of the finest of the "pop" series of concerts heard in some considerable. time. M. McIntyre Hood acted as Master of Ceremonies, and evoked warm applause when he suggest ed that the band's public. ap- pearances were all too jnfrequent, SPRING TERM STENOGRAPHIC SECRETARIAL ACCOUNTING Classes Continuous Throughout the Summer Months, Night Mon. & Thurs. 7:00 p.m. t0.9:00 p.m. COMPTOMETER CLERK-TYPIST School Oshawa Business College 18 Simcoe Street North -- Dial 5-4343 Oshawa, Ontario
