2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, Merch 5, 1960 GOOD EVENING --- By JACK GEARIN THOSE DUNNIES DESERVE BIG HAND A game little crew of Whitby Dunnies rolled into town from the big show at Squaw Valley this week. They didn't bring home the bacon, but they did a tremendous job, so let's give 'em a big hand. Four of them racked up 60 points for the Kitch- ener Waterloo - Dutchmen as compared to 35 points for seven homebrews on the team. Perhaps Mr, Wren Blair, the group's articulate spokesman, best summar- ized the situation when he said. "The Canadians all deserve credit, but I was tremendously proud of our BOBBY ATTERSLEY Whitby guys." Bobby Attersley (he saw one Russian player with a style like Billy Taylor's) got a good night's rest-- then he rushed off to see a doctor about his ailing knee. Harry Sinden had a day's rest--then he reported to his job in the GM power house, Blair, with customary modesty, headed for a news- paper office to pontificate on the latest happenings at the international ice hockey wars. If the public expected him to pop off in the role of a Monday-morning quarterback, they were disap- pointed. What about Bobby Bauer? He was a real nice guy, and plenty smart, too (Blair didn't even sing his old theme song: Nice Guys Never Win). The Waterloo- Dutchmen? A good, game erew, with plenty of heart-- they did a fine job. Blair didn't mention that his honeymoon with the Dutchies (They call him "Mother Blair') was over and that he was feuding with them over Ralph Hosking. Canada's defeat was over-emphasized. The really big thing was the U.S. victory. "Nothing else in a million years could boost the game of hockey across the border like that," he said. "That's all I heard on my train trip home from all kinds of people. Thousands of Californians who saw the games were tremendously impressed. One of the prime pur- poses of this tourney is to sell hockey, isn't it? Well the U.S. team did it in a big way, and every team helped." Mr. Blair (who hates air travel as much as hockey referees and has only been airborne once) was weary from a five-day trans-continental. train trip. The Russian coach told him through an interpreter that the U.S.S.R. had a better chance of getting a man to the moon than it did of beating the Canadians. Attersley and Sinden both regarded the trip as "a big success" for the Canadians. "What most Canadians don't realize," said Attersley "was that the brand of hockey at the Olympics and world tourneys has improved tremendously. Bobby said there were 45,000 "registered" hockey players today in Czechoslovakia, although he was not certain how many were in the 14-under group. The Czechs, Swedes, Russians, and Americans are all tougher to beat now. Canada had a good club and there was no friction, he said. "We only lost the tourney by one goal, but that's an old story--even the best club have an off day and we sure had ours. We outplayed the Americans, but we eouldn't put the puck in the nets, It was just in the books. Our win over Russia was a big thing. I don't think any other Canadian club has racked up eight goals against Russia. That Russian club was younger and stronger than its predecessors. They're comers," he said. MR. BRANCH DESERVES A MEDAL When yoéu get discouraged these days just think of Alderman Walter Branch. As chairman of the board of works, his life is any- thing but a bed of roses, especially when the snow clogs up the roads the way it did last week. The abuse he's been taking is far beyond the call of duty, even for a chairman of the board of works. He should get a medal. An irate woman phoned Mr. B at 5 a.m. last Friday (three hours after he got to bed) because her husband eouldn't get his car out of their snowbound driveway. When Mr. B lifted up the receiver in the early- dawn the dialogue went something like this: Woman (screeching): What are you going to do about it? Mr. B: About what, madam? Woman: About my husband's ear, you dummy. It's buried in five feet of snow. He'll never get to work on time. ' Mr. B: That's unfortunate, madam, but the entire city is snowed in. There's not much we ean do about it. Woman: Now don't start your excuses--you knew this storm was coming yesterday afternoon, so what did you do about it? Nothing. Absolutely nothing, Mr, B: Madam, crews have been working all night. Woman: All night? Why they haven't been near our street. Know what I think of You? (Edit- or's note: 14 words deleted here.) She hangs up. CLASS HISTORY IS RECALLED Rev, Frank Mahoney, late pastor of St. Gertrude's Church on King street east who was buried this week, was a classmate at St. Augustine's Seminary with Bish- op Marocco who was the celebrant Tuesday at his fun- eral Mass. They were both ordained in 1938 , . . Alder- man Cecil Bint (enroute home from Florida) stopped off in Kingston this week to greet his new grand- daughter in the Kingston General Hospital. The child was born to Mr. Bint's daughter, Ruth, formerly of Osh- awa, This is her fourth child. Her husband, Roy Watkin- son, is also from Oshawa. He is a bank accountant in Napanee, where they reside, but will move to Toronto with his family soon to take a new position with the bank--that of assistant bond trader, He is the son of the late Frank Watkinson, Oshawa contractor.

The cost of getting it carried away has reached record figures in some cities. Some examples: "This year's standing snow depths in the forest are rapidly approaching last year's record high," said P. J. Kennedy, super- intendent of Presqu'ile Park on Lake Ontario. sioner for Toronto, said one big | storm--the Feb. 25 blow--cost the city and suburbs a record $500,- 000 to clean .up. |" Montreal came close to a Feb- ruary snowfall record with 45.2 inches. This was a fraction of an inch less than the 1898 high. t C. y y far below the $50,000 of a year ago. Those were the exceptions, a anadian Press survey showed. Most of the other cities were fac- ing huge deficits in their budgets for snow clearance -- an item which even in normal tops the $1,000,000 mark jor centres.

BIG EXPENSE Canada's capital spent $1,640, 000 on snow removal for all of last winter. So far this year, the cost is $1,217,000 and expected to climb much higher. Kirkland Lake has set records in two departments--the depth of the snow and the cost of remov- ing it from the roads. Official figures at Earlton Airport show 114.5 inches compared to 60.5 in the same period last year. So far, $53,000 has been spent. The figure was $44,500 for the whole Sudbury, Stratford, Kitchener, , Niagara Falls and St. Catharines all report similar conditions. SOME GOOD REPORTS National Flag Resolution group. The average was 78 per cent in favor. | OTTAWA (CP)--The Canadian {Junior Chamber of Commerce said Friday in a brief to the gov- |ernment that an average of 81 per cent of 17,000 Canadians sur- |veyed favor a Canadian flag that |does not embody the design of lany other country's ensign.

Kingston found that from No- vember to March 1,77% inches fell, costing $72,000 to clear away. Last year the figures were 85 inches and $74,000. St. Thomas, -Chatham, Sault Ste. Marie, Fort William and Owen Sound also have come out comparatively well so far on snow-clearance costs. The St. Thomas snowfall figure at March 1 was 37.28 inches, com- pared with 45 inches last year; Later, Robert Mackay, Quebec, vice-president, said Mr. Green told the delegation that before Patrick's tea and home baking Red China will accept recogni- tion it has insisted that its terri- torial claims to Nationalist-held Formosa be recognized. the Jan. 1 to March 1 figure for Chatham was 15.6 inches -- last year's total was 48.9 and th erec- ord was 74.5 in 1916.
