Upon approval by the city coun- cil, this amount would be written into the 1960 budget. APPROVED BY COMMITTEE The three-man city finance committee, invited to attend the meeting, approved the idea of the redevelopment study. Senior governments will pay are Lt.-Col. M. C.

However, if the now vacant land is sold for industrial pur- poses, whether at a profit or a loss, the senior governments would take 75 per cent of the sell- ing price. No subsidy originating with ei- ther provincial or federal govern- ment would be forthcoming to clear an industrial black only to have it replaced with another in- dustrial building. STUDY URGED Norman C. Millman urged a study of the entire city because a uniform study of the whole area would be more beneficial in planning theory than a sectional study; "too we would be getting a $30,000 study for about $6000". Mr. Millman further described the proposed study as a "studv of prevention" of blighted or run- down areas in the city. He sug- gested that a study of this kind would be invaluable in helping city planners spot trouble areas before they blossom into problem areas.

William L. Hull, author, missionary and expert on Middle- East affairs will speak at the Simcoe Street Pentecostal Church, 245 Simcoe street south, Oshawa, on Sunday, Dec. 13, and the following Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday at 8 p.m. according to Reverend Jas. S. Pierce, Pastor. Current everfls in Israel and the Middle-East in relation to pro- phecy will be discussed by Rev. Hull, He will link past events with Bible prophecies and will indicate probable future events in the Middle-East. Originally from Canada, Rev. Hull has lived in Jerusalem since 1935. He is the founder and di- rector of Zion Christian Mission and author of "The Fall and Rise of Israel," and of "Israel-- Key to Prophecy." His books have established him as an authority on the Middle-East and his constant research has brought him into close contact with top Israel Government offi- cials. He is the only resident missionary to have interviewed the Prime Minister, Mr. David Ben-Gurion. During his years of service in the Middle-East he has travelled extensively and is familiar with most Arab countries. His message at the United Protestant Christ- mas Carol Service in Jerusalem YMCA in 1955 attracted wide soread attention and comment in the world press. The Government of Israel has granted to Rev. Hull the right to broadcast on behalf of the Protestant community in Israel on Christmas Day and Easter Sunday morning, over the Gov- ernment-owned radio station, Kol Israel. His Christmas Day mess- age in 1956 was the subject of considerable comment in the Hebrew press. '"HABOKER", leading Hebrew morning paper of Tel Aviv closed a long favor- able editorial with: "Rev. Hull's Christmas sermon over Kol Israel and his warning to the world . . was highly encou- raging and we express our deep gratitude for it." During the week night servi- ces Rev. Hull will show beautiful coloured films, on Israel. The public is cordially invited to these meetings. RECEIVES DEGREE J. A. Bentley, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. A.

Organist Standing Feike Asma, the famous Dutch organist visiting Oshawa, receiv- ed a standing ovation from a ca- pacity audience in Simcoe St. United church last evening.

This music had a sombre vital ity which was very appealing. In the last part of the pro- gramme Mr. Asma played a fiery interpretation of three move- ments of the Fifth Symphony of Widor. His last two numbers and his encore were particularly en- joyed by the Dutch portion of the audience, since "Andante" was by a Dutch composer, Simon Land and Improvisation on The first number, Bach's Toc- cata and Fugue in d minor was approached in as conventional a way as perhaps anything else on the programme.

Remand BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- A Antoni Pickering youth, AL Youths For Sentence and the passenger's side of his car were wet. Tevruchte, 20, of 61 Church street, Pickering and Charles W. Smith, 21, of 134 Thickson road, East Whitby, were remanded one week in custody when they ap- peared before Magistrate R. B. Baxter on charges of breaking, entering and theft. Smith pleaded guilty to the charge and was remanded for sentence and Tevruchte pleaded not guilty and was remanded for judgment. Archie Glenny, son of service station operator Archie Glenny, told the court he locked his father's service station on High- way 35, around 10.30 p.m. Nov. 30 and returned when called by OPP Constable D. G. Foulds around 4.30 am, the following morning. WINDOW SMASHED The complainant stated when he returned to the station the fol- lowing morning, he found one of the window panes smashed and. in the office, were two baskets of sundry articles and a battery sit- ting beside them on the floor. Two tires and a tube had been taken and it appeared the bas- kets were being made ready to take out. OPP Constable D. G. Foulds told the court while on general patrol of Highway 35 about 4.30 a.m, he noticed a car parked in front of the station entrance. He said it appeared to be running as he noticed exhaust coming from the rear of the vehicle. "I entered the lot from the| north in order to have the lights of the cruiser shine on the car and, as I pulled into the lot, the car pulled away and started south on Highway 35. I followed it a short distance to the CPR overpass where the driver stop- ACCUSED RAN "When I approached the ve- hicle to talk to the driver, I noticed the two tires in the back. He told me they belonged to a brother in Peterborough, but when I asked him to get. into the cruiser and started to get in myself, he started to run. He ran about 1000 feet into a field before I caught up with him. When we got back to the cruiser, the ac- cused made a statement. "He told me he had no brother in Peterborough, that he had stolen the tires, and that he was guilty, He said he was alone at "I thought I saw someone in the garage, so I decided to return and have a look. On the way up, I saw Smith walking along the highway and, when I called to him, he stopped and came over to the cruiser. When he did Tev- ruchte asked him 'why didn't you run?' " said PC Foulds. Tevruchte asked the officer, if when he ran from the car, a shot: was fired at him? PC Foulds replied he called to the accused to halt then fired a warning shot into the air. Tevruchte told the court he was on his way to Peterborough to see Smith's brother about get- ting him a job, and on the way his clutch started to burn and slip and his transmission was going, so he stopped at the serv- ice station where there was light enough so he could see to crawl underneath the car to put a piece of stove pipe wire into the link- age gear to stop the trouble. He stated he was underneath the car and was unaware Smith had entered the garage. When he came out from underneath the car, Smith put the tires in the back, said he saw the police com- ing, slammed the car door "and told me to get because the police were, coming." BECAME EXCITED "I didn't want anything to do with it and told him to take them back, but I left to help protect Smith," he stated. He said he started thinking about his girl friend when he started to run and, because he didn't want her to know anything about it, was the reason he ran. When asked why he said at first the tires belonged to a brother in Peterborough, and why he said he stole them later, Tevruchte said it was because he was excited and didn't know what he was saying.
