\ 8 Ly ¥ g Youths Go To Jail For Theft Of Auto A heart-moving story was told in magistrate's court yesterday morn- ing--of a young man, who owned two cars, had access to the family yet left home with another, 19- 1d with a record that show- had nt 18 months in jail for auto theft in 1951. : Robert Scott, charged with theft of a car from Frank Valentine, 246 Grooms Avenue, was sentenced one year definite and one month in- definite in the Ontario Reform- atory, by Magistrate Frank Ebbs, in city court, yesterday afternoon. His partuer, Ronald Newman, was sentenced to 14 months definite and six months indefinite in the Ontario Reformatory on a similar charge, Both youths are from Ot-| ed tawa. According to evidence, the pair left Ottawa this month with To- ronto as the destination in mind. They did not reach Toronto, before or after their arrival in Oshawa. Both the accused appeared in court yesterday morning. Newman, alias Turpin, pleaded not guilty and was represented by Jim Mac- Donald, one of Oshawa's latest ad- ditions to the Bar Association. Scott pleaded guilty. : First witness for the prosecution was Frank Valentine. He tol court that he left his 1951 Pontiac in a driveway beside his house on March 19. It was just"a half hour past midnight when he. closed and locked the front door and went to bed. $600 DAMAGE Then, after a telephone call in the morning, he went out to the driveway and noticed his car was gone. Valentine stated that he did not see the car until he drove to Belleville the next day. There, he found the vehicle almost a com- plete wreck. Over $600 damage was done when it rolled several es and ended its crazy skid r wet pavement in a ditch. arry Barr of Scarboro, a trac- "trailer driver, the second man t6 go to the witness box, told the court his connection with the crim- inal case, : Because of a broken brake line, Barr stopped his huge truck one mile east of Marysville. As it was rk and wet, he automatically aced flares on thq road to show motorists his vehicle was in dis- tress. 'In a few minutes, the roar of a car's motor loudened in his ears. Brakes were applied and tires fu- tilely grabbed at the greasy road. The oncoming car skidded, then veered into the ditch, rolling side over side. .Barr rushed to aid the driver and the other occupant (Scott and Newman). A passing transport was hailed by the helpful truck driver. When second truck pull- ed over to the scene of the crash, Barr told the driver to get police. Then Barr helped the two youths m the wreckage of the Pontiac. ott came first. Newman was pull- ed from the rear part of the two- door, car. The young man told the truck driver he was sleeping. INVESTIGATED CRASH Next witness was Constable Provincial Police. He told the court he was called early in the morning to investigate an accident. After scouring the district, he picked up Scott and Newman, who were walk- ing east on foot, four miles west of Deseronto. 3 Instructed to investigate the area five miles west of Deseronto, the constable found the wrecked to| car east of Deseronto. When he questioned the two youths, both denied having seen the smashed car before. Suspect- ing the car was stolen, Constable Smith checked with Belleville lice, who affirmed his suspicions. Phen he checked the ignition wires of the Pontiac. They were cross- Oshawa police were notified af- ter the investigation was complet- ed. Newman was then called to the box. He stated he met Scott in Oshawa. He said Scott told him he was going to get his brother's car and they would head east. PAIR HEADED EAST A plan that the two accused would meet--Scott driving the car and Newman standing beside the highway--was carried out. They headed for points east, with New- 1d | man, who said he was very tired, resting in the back seat. Newman said the next thing he saw was the face of the truck driv- er looking at him through the bat- tered car windows. - Cross-examined by Crown Attor- ney Russell D. Humphreys, Q.C., the accused stated he made ar- rangements with Scott to leave Oshawa at l.a.m. Mr. Humphreys read Newman's police record. It said he had ap- peared on charges of shopbreaking, two charges of theft and having housebreaking instruments. In 19- 51, the erown-attorney said, the accused was given his last jail term. It was for 18 months, Magistrate Ebbs registered a conviction on Scott's charge and reserved judgement on Newman's charge for 2 p.m. "BOLD Di AL" At the afternoon session, the magistrate read aloud the evidence given, concerning Newman. He said that it was a "bald denial' on Newman's part when he told the provincial officer he had not seen the wrecked car before the sud- den crash. Commenting on other evidence |? given by Newman, he said: "If I was to be fantastic. I don't believe it." Mrs. Scott and one of Scott's friends appeared as witnesses for the driver of the stolen car before Magistrate Ebbs pronounced sen- tence. Giving evidence on his behalf, Mrs. Scott said that Newman, who gave his name as Turpin--invited her son on a trip to Toronto. She pid he met the youth in a pool all. Stating that her son had two 1937 Ford cars to drive, she added he could have the family car whenev- er he wanted it. She said she never had to worry about him, He gave his girl friend an engagement ring E. L, C. Smith, of the Belleville before he went on the escapade. REPORT FROM PARLIAMENT By MICHAEL STARR, MP. Member for Ontario During the past two weeks a number of government and private bills have been passed by the House of Commons. The major por- tion of the time has been spent debating the policy of Canadian television and the governments proposal to extend the Emergency Powers Act. I would like to make me observations on the debate pecting the government policy on television. The government proposes to set up television stations in all of the major cities of Canada where there is a concentrated population and operate these stations under the Canadian Broadcasting Corpor- ation. No private television station will be allowed to operate in these cities, thereby eliminating compe- tition to themeslves. This policy is contrary to the radio arrange- ment where such competition ex- ists to some extent. As an example, Hamilton will not have a government operated television, but will be allowed fo have a privately - owned station. wever, arrangements will be made so that the people on the western outskirts of Toronto, will not be able to receive the pro- grams from Hamilton, therefore depriving the citizens of Toronto from having the privilege of seeing two Canadian television programs. The official opposition has been very strongly opposed to this ar- rangement and has termed this practice as one of "monopoly". It is argued that television should be conducted in the same manner as radio is at the present time, which has been proven satisfactory to everyone concerned, This week we received the sad news of the passing of the Queen Mother. On Tuesday, March 24th, when the House convened at 8 p.m., the Prime Minister announc- ed the news and the House adjourn- ed for the balance of the day. The following day at 2.30 p.m. the Prime Minister moved a motion which was seconded by the Leader of the Official Opposition to send a message to the Royal Family expressing sympathy on behalf of the Canadian people. ' The Prime Minister and the Leaders of the other parties made short speeches expressing their re- grets and sympathy. I am finding the work on the various committees very interest ing and have had the opportunity of learning a great deal about mat- ters in respect to Agricultural, Immigration, Justice, Labor and for a short time on External Af- fairs. Due to the illness of one of the members from our group, I was appointed to fill his tempo- rary vacancy. I am also a repre- sentative of our group on the Standing Committees of the House of the Miscellaneous Private Bills and Idusirial Committees. convey to all the people of Ontario Riding through is column my very best wishes for a joyous Easter.

R. B. Reed & Sons, Flor- ists, (72¢. Quebec is the only province in Canada with a bicameral legisla- ture--an assembly and an upper ) | house, lieve that story--it would Magistrate Frank Ebbs yester- day asked a delegation of Oshawa Railway Company trainmen if more care could be taken on their part, to help reduce the traffic accident toll. About 15 employees of the Oshawa company attended court to hear a case against one of their fellow workmen, which was dismissed by the magistrate. "This is the first time we have had the Oshawa Railway Company represented as a body in the court" the magistrate said. He recalled that at numerous occasions, there was no signalman at railway cros- sings where traffic accients had taken place.' He asked the men if more co-operation could be util ized to prevent future mishaps. Chief Constable Owen D. Friend pointed out that there is no law stating that shunter workmen have to stand at crossings to flag down approaching cars. He stated that Seek Co-operation To Cut Accidents only the bell and whistle are need- ed, according to the Railway Act, to warn cars of an oncoming train. But added attention to traffic be- yond the call of duty would pre- youl many accidents, the chief ad- vised. One of the trainmen replied that often a signalman is placed at crossings. He cited one occasion when he was nearly knocked down by an oncoming car that would not stop, although a lantern was flashed. Magistrate Ebbs said he wonder- ed why signalmen did not carry out the courteous measure as ex- tensively now as a few years ago. "Surely, men who have shown the intelligence seen in court this morning, can give the same intel- ligence in the operation of a train --to give motorists a chance to get across without being hit," the magistrate asserted. Oshawa Man Is Appointed As DDGM Honors were accorded recently to Corinthian Lodge, No. 61, Inde- pendent Order of Odd Fellows, when one of its members, Ray G. RAY G. GREENTREE Greentree, 249 Athol Street East, was elected to the office of Dis- trict Deputy Grand Master of the IOOF. The office gives Mr. Green- tree jurisdiction over the two lodges in Oshawa as well as those in Port Perry, Brooklin," Whitby and Pickering. In his fraternal work, Mr, Greentree is a member of Corin- thian Lodge, No. 61; Rebekah Lodge, No. 222, and Ontario Regi- ment, No. 11, these branches of the IOOF being local fraternal groups. , It is expected that the commis- sion of DDGM will be conférred upon Mr. Greentree in June at the meeting of the Grand Lodge of On- tario in Toronto. Mr. Greentree is*a member "of King Street United Church and is a past grand of Corinthian Lodge. He is an employee of General Mo- tors of Canada, Limited. Evidence Lack Dismissal Hecause of conflicting evidence, Glen Stephens, 22, Brock Street South, Whitby, charged with theft of an automobile tube from Gen- eral Motors of Canada, Limited, on March 20, had his case dismis- sed in city court yesterday morn- ing, by Magistrate Frank Ebbs. Only one security officer of the Oshawa factory gave direct evi- dence. The guard, George Fox, told the court that he saw the ac- cused, a brakeman with Oshawa Railway Company, leave an emp- ty box car, return to the car and throw a tube in the car, near Building 55 at the plant. The of- ficer said he was perched at the top of a shed which housed tires and tubes and could see the ac- cused's actions from his position which was 80 feet from the un- loading boxcars. Constable J. N. Smyth of the city police was called to the plant and arrested Stephens. Four trainmen, who worked with the accused, said that he had no opportunity to get into the shed. Giving evidence were: Clayton Wannamaker, a motorman for 12 years; James Dawson, conductor; d Roberts, trolleyman and Ken Bartley, brakeman. Magistrate Ebws said that it was unfortunate that the security of- ficer was the only person to give evidence, but he said he believed the man saw the incident, but might have mistaken the identity of the alleged thief. John Greer, counsel for the de- fense, pointed out that here was insufficient evidence to convict the accused because of the corrobora- tive evidence of the four trainmen. LEGION CORNER Three new members were initiat- ed into the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Legion on Thursday eve- ning, when four other applications from local veterans for member- ship were approved and accepted. Plans were announced for the placing of a wreath on the Oshawa War Merhorial in honor of the an- niversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge, which falls on Thursday next, April 9. The wreath will be placed at a brief ceremony at the cenotaph on the evening of April 8, at 8 o'clock, with members of the branch and auxiliary asked to be present to join in this act of remembrance, Announcement was made that the final for Oshawa of the Public Speaking Contest, sponsored by the Branch, would be held on Wed- nesday evening, April 22, at 7.30 p.m. This event will be open to the public as well as to Legion members, and parents and friends of the children who will be taking part are given a special invita- tion to attend. It is expected that each of the elementary schools of the city, including the separate schools, will have one contestant, while two contestants will be allow- ed from each 'of the secondary schools. Winners, in addition to re- ceiving handsome cash prizes, will be eligible to go on to the zone and district elimination competi- tions leading towards the provin- cial finals. Vice-president Nathan Hircock, along with Comrades W. Beaton, W. Harny and A. Elliott visited Oshawa veterans in Sunnybrook on Sunday. At Thursday night's meet- ing, Comrade Hircock reported the following had been visited: Blake L. Allard, Cecil D. Brooks, Joseph H. Carpentier, A. J. Meclvor, George H. Robinson, George Younge, Robert Taylor, William Bentham, Ed McDonald, Orval Bond, Arthur Gladman and Nurs- ing Sister Margaret M. Hobden. Gifts of cigarettes, tobacco and other comforts were left with the Oshawa veterans visited. There was again considerable discussion of 'the Death Benefit Fund, but the majority of the members present were satisfied with the benevolent committee's ruling that single men who were paid-up members of the Branch had exactly the same rights under the fund as married members. The following teams will repre- sent Zone F-1 in the district bowl- ing finals, the place and date of which have yet to be decided: Teams: Bowmanville "A" -- W. Bates, J. Fair, G. Elliott, E.

The driver, Rob- ert Edgar Campbell, 245 Annis Street, crawled out unhurt although he was badly shaken up. Campbell told police that the truck, owned by the Dixon Coal Company went out of control on the slippery boards of the bridge at 10 p.m. when he was travelling south. Crashing through 12 guard rails on the west side of the bridge, the truck hurtled" down the em- bankment. Miraculously it came to a stop only a few feet in front of a gasoline pump. Fenders, lights; the bumpers and grill of the truck were damaged. BIRTHDAYS Congratulations are extended to A. L. Pascoe of Hampton who will be celebrating his birthday tomorrow. REGULARLY 85¢ FOOT.

In announcing the offering, Mrs. R. Shearsmith, Sabbath School superintendent, stated that the Philippine Union College in Manila is overcrowded, and that a 2400- acre property on Mindanao is avail- able for $14,000. Here students can have agricultural training, and a lumber industry will enable them to meet their tuition and other ex- penses. Five senior academies and 135 elementary schools operated by the church in the Philippines have swollen 'student enrollment at the Manila College from 135 in 1947 to 600 today. Two other schools will be benefited by the offering-- the Japan Missionary College near Tokyo and the North Celebes Train- ing School in Indonesia. There are 235,808 young people enrolled in Adventist schools around the world. The Oshawa Missionary College church takes seriously the business of educating its young people. Be- sides paying their regular public school tax and contributing to schools in other lands, the mem- bers support their own fourteen- room parochial school at Kingston Road East. Claim Canada's Only Resident Robin Several Canadian centres can boast about sighting the first rob- in of the year but Port Perry dis- trict may have the only year- round resident red-breast. Mrs. Harlan Clark, RR 4, Port Pery, is the proud owner of "Bob- bin" a young robin which she res- cued from the cats at their Prince Albert farm home. "He must have fallen from his nest ...he had a broken wing which didn't heal properly," says Mrs. Clark of the young pet which is now quite tame. Bobbin is kept in a cage built by Mr. Clark who operates a poul- try farm. The bird is well cared for and quite often the Clark's let him out of the cage and he follows them around the house. Bobbin gets along fine with an- other pet canary and has also de- veloped a special warble. "He has a little song of his own," says Mrs. Clark, 'and he chirps when he hears us stirring especial- ly early in the morning. Bobbin's menu is well varied with raisins, hard-boiled egg, grit, laying and starter mash, his favourite rolled oats dew" warms. This diet has kept him in good fettle although his feathers are molting a little. For exercise the bird sometimes flies down from his cage but a deform- ed wing which effects his balance prevents him from taking off in flight, Somewhat reluctant to have Bob- bin's story publicized Mrs. Clark said, "We think a lot of him... and don't think we would part with him ...as he would probably be easy prey for animals."

STEAKS PORTERHOUSE AND WING "5 FRESHLY GROUND MINCED BEEF / 3 ..1.00 SLICED BOLOGNA ws. 29° SKINLESS WIENERS 2 = 69° Colorful Setting Crowd Pleasing A host of good reasons why Oshawa is rapidly becom. ing recognized as the home of skating champions were pre- sented to a large gathering of figure skating fans at the Arena. last night, when the Oshawa Skating Club presented its annual ice frolics. These reasons took the form of a suc- cession of talented local skaters who thrilled the audience with the quality of their performance, and with very little help from imported talent, provided a varied program of outstanding merit. In a colorful setting, and with eye-catching costuming, the Skat- ing Club's 1953 presentation was the finest exhibition ever staged by Oshawa skaters, the show being enhanced by the Canadian cham- pions from the local club who dem- onstrated the skill which won them their national titles. While the management of the show came in for some criticism for the slow- ness of the proceedings, and the long gaps with a darkened arena, this carrying the show on to an unduly late hour, only the highest praise can be accorded the indi- vidual skaters and the many group of local devotees of the silver blades who appeared on the leng- thy program. It can truly be said that there were so many note- worthy features that it is impos- sible to do justice to all of them. Thanks to the development of top-flight Oshawa skaters, very little outside help was needed in staging the carnival. Frances Dafoe and Norris Bowden of Toronto, Canadian senior pairs champions and runners-up in the world cham- pionship pairs, were the headlin- ers, and their performances were breath-takng in their brilliance. Their timing, smoothness of tech- nique, and perfect team work had the audience gasping and they re- ceived a wonderful ovation, to which they responded with gener- ous encores. The only other imported artist was Rudy Eyeman, comedy skat- er, whose very brief appearance on the ice poduced many laughs. But this writer felt that the comedy performance by a local girl, Elaine Richards, in her "Grandma" se- quence, outshone that of the im- ported professional star. Miss Rich- ards gave a remarkably fine com- edy act which the crowd richly enjoyed. MARVELLOUS PERFORMANCE Featured local performers were Dawn Steckley and Dave Lowery, Canadian champions. Miss Steck- ley's solo number, which won her second place in the Canadian wom- en's championship, was a marvel- lous performance, with spins and jumps which thrilled the crowd and brought her sustained applause and demands for more. The pairs num- ber with David Lowery was also brilliantly executed, and stamped these youthful Oshawa skaters for future high honors. One of the finest performances was that of young Donald Jack- son; a lad in his early teens whose solo number showed him to be a talented skater of great promise who will go far in future Canadian championship events. His easy Baer in [Sxecuting difficult umps »"~ "ins caught the eye of the audience. ; aS Geralaii.. Jenton and Glenn Skuce, Canadian junior dance champions, also gave an eye-pleas- ing performance, and demonstrat- ed the skill which won for them this high honor. In her solo number, Elaine Rich- ards showed that she is rapidly becoming ready for top-rank skat- ing, in addition to being an adept comedy skater, and she gave a smooth and finished performance. Alan Anderson gave a splendid solo performance. Other soloists, all of whom de- serve special mention as Oshawa skaters who will yet represent the club in high conipetition, were Hugh Smith. Joan Kelly, Joanne Robb, Donald and Mary . Petre, Grace Dowe, Suzanne McKay, Ann Mowat, Carol Klapow, Margaret Jean Carr, Sandra Martin, Peggy Brown and Toby Keeler. SENSATIONAL ACT Jim Hambly, in a sensational act of skating on stilts, added a pleasing touch of novelty to the program and made a great apeal to the crowd. The main setting for the carnival was that of a Persian market, with colorful background and costumes, against which many groups of young skaters of the Oshawa Club performed. Some of the tiny tots on skates were a little stage- struck, and evoked involuntary laughter with their antics on the ice. But the whole show was out- standing for the great wealth of local talent displayed. The lighting effects were far from good, some of the best work of the skaters being obscured by lack of effective lighting. Possibly there may be some improvement in this when the Ice Frolics are presented for the second time this evening. The opening dance group was made up of Millie Yacabosky, Mrs. Ermal Holland, Donna Russell, Elizabeth Keleman, Joanne Robb, Grace Dowe, Jim Kenlin, Ian Greenaway, Jim Reid, Bruce Gormley, Donald Dulmage and William Slywka with Geraldine Fenton and Glenn Skuce, Canadian Junior Dance Champions, as fea- tured skaters.
