2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, April 27, 1960 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN CHAMBER HAS VITAL ROLE TO PLAY The 248 citizens who attended the Chamber of Commerce Get-Acquainted dinner in the Hotel Genosha Monday represent a happy augury. With this kind of support from a healthy cross- section of the business community, the Chamber should feel encouraged to go ahead with its plans for expansion. Perhaps the guest speaker, Lt.-Col. John S. Whyte, best summarized the situation when he emphasized that a good chamber needs a sound structure -- good com- mittee work that extends right down to the member- ship, where much hard work must be done. Mr, Whyte said one of the great things the Chamber can do -- probably the greatest -- is to fight for free- dom of enterprise and against "too much government in our affairs", As the broadest organization in the country, the Chamber is eminently suited to do this work. Mayor Gifford described the Chamber as "the life- line of the city in industry and commerce." Douglas Fisher, the Chamber's new general man- ager, should be encouraged by what he saw Monday night. Regardless of the size of the operation which he has undertaken, he will have some solid support be- hind him from citizens who are anxious that the Chamber continue to play an effective role in the com- munity. LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Gordon W, Riehl, Oshawa chartered accountant, is the author of an article in the April edition of "Cost and Management" (the journal of the Society of In- dustrial and Cost Accountants of Canada). The title is "A Distribution Cost System" which outlines a simple distribution. cost system for the food industry , . . Mr. Kelso Creighton said this week that he had not been informed as to when the results of the York Township land probe will be announced. Mr, Creighton was special counsel at the 47-day probe that extended over a period from March 19 to Sept. 2 last year and in- quired into certain financial affairs of the corporation relating to subdivision of land, zoning bylaws and sale of municipally-owned lands. York Township Council this week approved payment of an account submitted by J. J. Robinette, who acted for the township, of $13,500. This account covers professional services for himself and three associates. Members of the Oshawa and District Association for Retarded Children will 'be among 400 delegates attending the three days session at Hamilton, April 20-30, when the Ontario Association for Retarded Children holds its seventh annual conference. MILITARY BALL DAZZLING AFFAIR So another Military Ball of the Ontario Regiment has come and gone! There's little doubt about it -- this has developed into quite a dazzling social affair with enough pomp, pageantry and color to elevate it far above the average level for dances of this size. The planning was meticulous (from the massive blue cellophane squares artfully suspended from the ceiling to the long, protective canopy extending to the street). Even the lilting music of Mart Kenney and His West ern Gentlemen seemed appropriate. Rarely in peacetime locally is there a finer display of military splendor. There's something stirring, too, about the entire spectacle -- scores of well-groomed ofiicers and their fair ladies dancing under the soft lights across the spacious floor of the Armories. This Ball has class, tradition, also gaiety and hilarity combined with dignity, If there's one predominant quality about the affair, its that everything is planned with an eye for good taste, U.S. DISCOUNT HITS AT CHURCH COLLECTIONS Brougham -- Rev. A. E. Cresswell said today that the treasurers of Brougham and Claremont United Church were faced with "an increasing problem" be- cause of the amount of U.S. currency on church collec- tion plates on recent Sundays, since the discount practice had started. Mr. Cresswell stressed that "any kind of money" was acceptable, but he also pointed out that the treasurers were currently absorbing the exchange loss out of their own pockets and that discount rates were "high". Many villagers pointedly refuse to accept even U.S sne-cent pieces since the discount practice started. YRAFFIC CONFERENCE HAS HIGH AIMS Ever hear of the Ontario Traffic Conference? We received a comprehensive briefing on the aims and policies of that organization the other day from Robert F. Richardson of Oshawa. Not only is Mr. Richard- son field engineer of the city's engineering staff (he holds an Applied Science degree from the University of Toronto), but he is also the second vice - president of the OTC, which was started in 1949 to im- prove traffic conditions and traffic safety through engineering, enforcement and education. Who makes up the mem- bership? Engineers, police officers and elected representatives interested in traffic. Near- ly all Ontario cities, many towns, townships and counties enjoy membership. It is hoped to eventually include all these groups in the OTC so that opinion and recommendations made will represent the majority opinions of municipalities. The ¢onference studies traffic problems and makes recommendations to various levels and departments of government. Each year it presents a brief to the minister of transport for Ontario outlining recommendations which would require amendments to the Highway Traffic Act. The conference conducts a two-week traffic train. ing school for police and engineering personnel annually at the University of Western Ontario. The conference has played a leading role in the development of uniform signs, signals and pavement markings. The Canadian Good Roads Association recently published a uniform manual for traffic control devices for the Dominion ---. conference members helped to prepare this book. The conference has been active in the development and promotion of such devices as the red stop sign, yield signs, pedestrian crosswalks, school crossing signs and standard paving markings. This year it is studying the establishment of separate traffic courts in larger cities, the need for uniform bumper heights to reduce the amount of damage resulting from rear end collisions, various problems concerning the operation of school buses. The conference is an active group of dedicated people. Though their efforts, roads and streets should be safer.

A » a a 355-pound walrus, the New | York aquarium would like to | hear them. The aquarium is having trouble with Ookie, a spoiled female walrus that came from St. Lawrence Island in the northern Bering Sea. None of the aquarium experts has been able to wean her and the wal- rus hooks just don't say. | Ookie is 11 months old and and ever since she was two weeks old she has been eating out of a bucket with a large nipple attached. It was de- signed for baby walruses with- out moiliers and Ookie doesn't want to give it up. Twice daily she sucks up with gusto a finely-ground diet of heavy cream, clams and vita- | mins, But when the mixture is ! put in an ordinary bucket, she turns up her nose. "Jt has become apparent," C. W, Coates, the aquarium di- rector said uneasily, "that we have a very conservative wal- | rus. She resists change--any | change at all." | One reason the aquarium wants to wean Ookie is that | William Flynn, her keeper, is | getting tired of holding her nipple bucket, Another is that they want to move her in with Olaf, a big male walrus weighing 1,700 | pounds. They don't think this would be a good idea until | Ookie is weaned. Olaf has been eating happily out of a basin ever since he came to the aquarium at the | age of six months.
