McGeachy went to Ottawa to join the distinguished membership of the Press Gallery there.g Following his work as Parliamen- tary Observer at Ottawa, Mr. Mc- Geachy was sent as a Canadian Correspondent to Washington, D.C. and later to London, England, as representative several Canadian newspapers. The outbreak of war marked Mr. McGeachy's transfer to the British Broadcasting Corporation in Lon- don, and from 1940 to 1946, his daily broadcasts on World Affairs became the highlight ef the BBC's Overseas Service. to Canada. In 1946 he was invited to join the Globe and Mail of Toronto, where he is now Associate Editor. In addition ot his important con- tributions to the Press, J. B.

Health Board Opposes Approval Stickers For Local Restaurants Oshawa's restaurants are not go- ing to get certificates announcing a clean bill of health which they can stick in their windows. At a meeting last night the local Board of Health decided against issuing the certificates. The main objection to the scheme was that while a restaurant might pass a bacteriological inspection one day and obtain its certificate, within a few days a similar test might fall into the bad category. Dr. A. F. Mackay, the Medical Officer of Health, reported on a letter t he Board received from Oshawa and District Labor Coun- cil on the subject. Organized labor asked that after two bad inspec- Hons a restaurant should be clos- The Board endorsed a reply drafted by Dr. Mackay. The letter explained the purpose of the regu- lar bacteriological tests taken in restaurants on dishes, 'glass-ware and silver. A bad fest could be caused by one of many things, in- cluding careless dishwashing, im- inadequate Closing procedure was excep- tionally severe and in Ontario was only used in cases where health of the public was obviously concern- ed A cleanliness certificate might only remain valid for a few days after issue, commented the Board, and such an issue might possibly lead to some carelessness on the part of the restaurant staff. A typical instance, reported by involved a restau- rant which came up for its annual The restau- rant, after an exceedingly thor- ough inspection, passed every test with flying colors. Yet not long after the restaurant was prosecut- ed by the Board which won a court case against it for having dirty dishes.

Coming Events Underwriters 'Help Develop Life Industry The Life Underwhiter"s Associa- tion has played a very important part in the development of the life H. J. REID insurance industry, said H. J. Reid, regional vice-president of the Cana- dian Life Underwriter's Associ- ation, in his address to local mem- bers at their monthly meeting at Adelaide House yesterday. Through the educational program and public relations work being done by the association many members have gained a much greater understanding of the re- quirements needed by qualified life underwriters, he said. In his address on 'Plus Produc- tion," Mr. Reid displayed several visual sales aids which, when shown to people with a sincere need for further insurance protec- tion, were most beneficial. The number of association members is steadily increasing, said Mr. Reid, but in Canada there are still many capable insurance underwriters not taking advantage of the associa- tion. Mr. Reid was introduced by T. Seaton and following the address he presented G. Sheridan of the London Life Insurance Company. with his NationaP Quality Award for business written during 1951 which passed the rigid require- ments of the Canadian Life Under- writer's Association. The speaker was thanked by T. McLaughlin, secretary-treasurer of the local as- sociation. | OSHAWA HOME BUILDERS AND HOME Furnishing Fair. Oshawa Arena, Thurs..

Challenge Of Missions Is Talk Theme "I refuse to consider geographic boundaries when I think of the challenge of Missions." 'These words were used by the Rev. J. I. Richardson, B.A., B.D., a mis- sionary on furlough from India, who was the speaker at Friday night's special missionary service at the First Baptist Church. Mr. Richardson said it was not his intention to present a mission- ary appeal merely on the basis of pathos or sympathy for he be- lieved that such an appeal would arouse only passing interest or concern. The challenge to mission- ary effort was not alone in certain named countries but wherever un- Christian conditions and conduct exist the command of Christ calls us to see that situation as a mis- sionary challenge. The worship in this land, both within- and without the church of the idols of things and possessions were very evident, Mr. Richard- son stated, when he returned from India last year. The message which we have to present is that God is love, Jesus Christ died for the sins of men and that Christ came to give men Eternal Life. Christ the Person must ever be the centre of our message. Such a message must ever be the impelling motive to all our missionary effort and we must not be satisfied to be only spec- tators. The Reverend Mr. Richardson upon completion of studies toward his doctor's degree and God will- ing, expects to return to India in November. : At the concluding services in the special missionary week at First Baptist Church the Reverend Mr. Buck of Bolivia will be the speaker at both services. Say Liberal Could Serve Riding | Best A Liberal candidate elected by Ontario Riding to the Liberal-gov- erned House at Ottawa could ren- der a greater service to the riding than could a member of the op- position. John L. Lay, who is Liberal candidagje for the riding for the federal by-election, to be held on May 26, made that point in a speech Thursday night. He was addressing about 75 Lib- eral workers who were present at an organizational meeting of Osh- awa Liberal Association held at the committee rooms, 15 Simcoe Street South. Mr. Lay was chosen as candidate at the Liberals nominating conven- tion of Tuesday and his speech to the party workers was his first of the campaign. James Heffering, president of the Riding Liberal Association, al- so addressed last night's meeting. The 75 workers present spent the remainder of the evening in or- ganization and discussing plans for the campaign.

Sabre Jet Squadron 'Here May 13 OTTAWA -- A squadron of 12 RCAF F-86 Sabre jet-fighters, Can- ada's first line day fighter, will make a four-week tour of Eastern Canada beginning next week, it is announced here at Air Force Head- quarters. The squadron will give an air display, weather permitting, over Toronto on May 12 and over Dshaws and Peterborough on May The tour, which starts at Sum- merside, P.E.I,, next Wednesday, April 30, will give many Canadians a chance to see these 600-mile-an- hour interceptors for the first time. The Sabres are part of Air De- fence Command's first-line fighter strength and are the same type of aircraft being used in Korea and with the RCAF's No. 1 Fighter Wing in England. Three squadrons, 413 at Bagotville, P.Q., and 416 and 439 at Uplands, near Ottawa, will take part in the tour, to avoid dis- rupting flying training. The tour will terminate in West- ern Ontario but, if defence training permits, the RCAF hopes to ar- range a Western tour later in the year. As well as fly-pasts over most of the major cities and towns, the RCAF will have static displays open to the public at Summerside, P.EI, Moncton, NB. and Halifax. These exhibits will show the fighter pilots and their equipment, and will allow the citizens to observe the trim aircraft first. hand.

Bowmanville Airman Lost In Sea ( Crash BOWMANVILLE -- Citizens were shocked to learn on Friday of last week that Lieut. W. J. (Bill) Hut- chinson, 29, son of Mrs. M, J, Hutchinson, Elgin St., Bowman- ville, and the late Mr. Hutchinson, was reported missing following a midair collision involving two Avenger aircraft on a night exer- cise flight over the Atlantic Ocean 70 miles off the coast of Nova Scotia. The two Naval alrcraft were carrying out a training "strike' against the cruiser Quebec when they crashed. Seven men were re- ported missing following the ac- cident. No trace of them has been found although an intensive search was continued for several days when finally abandoned on Sun- day. With the Naval Air Arm during World War II, Bill Hutchinson joined the Bell Telephone, Com- pany on discharge. He re-joined the Air Arm in February of this year and was posted to HMCS Shearwater at Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. His wife, Margaret, and daughter Pat, joined him there six weeks ago. Lieut. Huchinson has one broth- er, Jack, who lives in Toronto, and two sisters, Margaret, (Mrs. Angus Cameren, of Johannesburg, South Africa) and Ruth, (Mrs. Kenneth C. Bley, of North Gardens, Vir- ginia).

Dr. James expressed hope that 1952 would see the dition of sodium fluoride to city's rinking water and noted the efficiency and determinec fort of the staff of the health : partment resolved the many die ficulties following annexation. INFANT MORTALITY HIGH The report of the infant mottals ity showed that the Oshawa rate per 1,000 live births, was 32.1. Compared with the average rate for Ontario, the local record in past years was unsatisfactory bus no valid explanation could be dee forming by the Board. n 1951 there were 3, r of communicable a Poy the city. It was a record epidemis year but the great increase was partially due to improvement in the reporting of diseases. "There is also the possibility that more patients now consult the doctors for diagnosis and ade vice due to the removal of an economic barrier which existed prior i the introduction of sicke ness insurance by industries' comments Dr, thy in the or report. _ Experience showed that immune ization against whooping. cough was approximately 90 percent 'ef fective. Investigation of 46 polio cases did not reveal any signific- ant common factor which vu add to the medical authoriuc.' existing knowledge regarding mode of transmission or methods for prevention. More than 15,000 'chest X-ray examinations were made in 1951 with intracutaneous skin tests made on 900 secondary school pue pils. A total of 6550 of the X-ray were of hospital admissions while another 2956 were done une der the GM pre-employment scheme. : New cases of TB and cases ads mitted to sanitorla incre sharply. Two factors accoun for the increase. One was the ane nexation which increased the pope ulation of Oshawa by 10,000 and the other was the migration of labor to local industries. 213 TB CASES In 1951 there were 213 cases on the TB register with 22 new cases being reported. Ten of thése cases were of people who had live ed less than a year in the while three were residents of the annexed areas. More than 200 pupils were sén to dental clinic for free treatment which was given in cases where the expense involved was the reason for tooth neglect. " No major difficulty was antich pated in the introduction of fluose ine salts into the city water supe ply in 1952. That would be am important advance in the prevene tion of dental caries. Of last year's school admission age pupils, 45 percent had their health forms completed by private arrangements. Comprehensive medical tests were made of all pupils and histories maintained. There are now seven nursing districts under the Board and each district has a population of more than 5,000 people. Transpor- tation facilities had to be doubled in 1951. Investigations confirmed early forecasts that many problems in sanitation would be encountered following the annexation of 10,- 000 people who reside in an area devoid of any sanitary sewers, Approximately 25,000 feet of sanie tary sewers were laid or contract. ed for in 1951. One result of the employment of a full-time plumbing inspector was a marked superiority in workmanship and design. Own- ers of premises were the chief benificiaries from the service and on the basis of fees collected the plumbing section was almost self~ supporting. f FEDERAL AID GIVEN A continued federal grant ase sisted the employment of a fulle HEART DISEASE (Contmued on page 5) L Tm. + ee - TONI Show. homes just recently listed.
