SNOW REMOVAL AT SHOPPING CENTRE Bix pieces of heavy equip- ment and the efforts of a crew of 22 men working round- the-clock shifts to feed 11 big ed by W. B. Bennett Paving trucks, made it possible for the | Oshawa Shopping Centre to clear in three days its 3300 car parking lot and more than three miles of sidewalks after the recent heavy early snow- fall. In keeping with their aim of providing weather-free shop- ping, centre officials lost little time in coping with the snow- fall which blanketed the district | over the weekend. An estimated 10,000 tons of snow was remov- Ltd., under contract to the shop- ping centre for snow removal. Seven men took three days to remove an estimated 10 inches of snow from the centre malls. The effort was prolonged when fresh falls covered areas that had heen previously cleaned. When it was learned local salt supplies were low, a truck was | dispatched to Windsor to bring | salt to.cope with the situation. | Thirty-two tons of salt and 22 'tos of a mixture of sand and salt was used in the giant snow-removal project. In addi- tion to 11 trucks, two graders, two front-end loaders, a snow blower and a sidewalk dozer were used to make the centre parking and walking facilities quickly serviceable for the pub- lic again. --(Photo by Garnet Belfry) 74 Sinclair Home, School WHITBY Hears High School Teacher] NEWS Sinclair Home and School As-| entire club. it suc SOBs sociation was held at the school.| The banner for attendance was making ws Sel 3 Nocess. h ned|won this month by Mr. Boyd's het 5 Eve E.

Belleville McFarlands and the Kingston Merchants both fell victim to the Whitby Dunlops in their own rinks the past couple of days. Both contests were close hard-fought battles and each decided by a single goal. Tuesday night the "Dunnies" made it ; two in a row over Belleville winning a 5-4 decision to follow their 42 victory here last Saturday.

DAY-BY-DAY DUPLICATE BRIDGE The following are the top {scores at Tuesday's Duplicate Bridge. Nofth and South: Mrs and Mrs. Irwin 71%; {Mrs. Winters 66%; Mr and Mr. Waddell 65%; Mrs. Thomas 64'% East and West: Mr, and Mrs One of the growing topics in sport circles these days is the question of who will represent our nation at the 1960 Olym- ples at Squaw Valley, California. Earlier this fall the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association requested that any teams inter- ested in this challenging assignment should file application with the CAHA prior to Oct. 31. Reliable information indicated that four applications were received. They. came from the Whitby Dunlops, the Kitchener-Waterloo Dutchmen, Kelowna Packers and the Fort William Beavers. Later information seemed to imply that the final choice would narrow down to either Whitby or Kitchener. However, earlier this week the Dunlops withdrew their application after a very close study of all the pertinent facts. Olympic year, vnlike the years of the world tournament, allows a team no re-instated professionals. This would mean that the "Dunnies" would be forced to drop John Henderson, Alf Treen, Ted O'Connor, Sid Smith, Gordie Wells Bo Mr o \ Myles, Pete Babando, and Sandy Air, all of whom played |"° Bo i and Mrs. Free pro hockey in the past.

With it he stated that if Kitchener was unwilling to pool resources of talent and thus give the country a stronger squad, that he would be most anxious to have his Hull-Ottawa Canadiens and the Dunlops join forces for an Olympic nucleous next season. Pollock has a great club at Hull, one that contains 10 players from his Memorial Cup team of last year and it would appear that Hull and Whitby together would produce a better club than Kitchener and Whitby might have. In the end the CAHA executive will have to decide these matters but meanwhile it produces plenty of food for thought! - THE TOWN AND COUNTRY . . .
