GE" {URCH CENTRE 5T,, PROJECT MONEY "Building for Eternity" war led by Mrs, Lt.-Colonel Gennery, By JACK GEARIN SHAMEFUL NEGLECT OF SLUM DWELLERS Remember May 6, 1958 7 I'hat's when the Oshawa Times ran a story to the effect that a $1,000,000 low-rent housing project would cost the city $50,000. The federal government was to pay 75 percent, the city and pro- vince 12% percent each. The story stressed that the miserable slum condi- tions in some Oshawa homes had been described by Mayor Gifford as "pathetic" -- it soon started a chain of events that augured well for the project. Then followed s...e ag= onizing delays and red-tape' at both the provincial and! federal level despite mount- ing evidence that the project] when each Home League present- ed their project money in a novel way, Some represented a loaf of bread, another the corner stone and others a brick, and several had models of the new Officers' Training College in Toronto, to which the money was going. Oshawa League had two small children, Eleanor Sargeant and David Coull dressed to represent adults of the future, The sum of! $1750 was realized, to be used in the building of the new Officers' Training College in Toronto, A prayer of dedication was offered by Mrs. Lt.-Commissioner Ham, followed by the singing of the hymn, "Jesus Keep Me Near the Cross", DRAMA GROUP Peterborough Drama Group, under the direction of Mrs, Lt. at Wilson & Lee's ¥ 1) MAY 2nd to 7th BINGO CORONATION ORANGE TEMPLE SATURDAY, APRIL 30° 23 PM.

Brad- ALD, THOMAS ley, assistant director of housing branch, Ontario Depart- ment of Development and Planning, informed Alderman Thomas (who has fought hard for this project) that the federal and provincial governments have changed their housing policy and now will provide full recovery housing only. They will not provide subsidized housing of the type planned for those Oshawa people who live in miserable slum conditions So ends, for the time being at least, on low-rent housing. a sad little saga MEMO TO ALL OSHAWA DOG-OWNERS We don't want to sound a bearer ngs, but we may as well give you the the tie-up period starts for all Oshawa dogs tomo Sunday, May 1.

I'here was an important lesson V in that story the only It illustrated most forcefully tude today towards teen-agers is unrealistic and silly The story didn't come out bluntly and Hi-Teen Club closed shop on Sundays from some church-going citizens who strict observance of Sunday, but the strong The Hi-Teen Club (a social group for teen-agers) has been the target for criticism since it launched Sunday night dances several weeks ago. This was not because of the conduct of its members (who come well recommenced as a normal, healthy group of youngsters), that not general atti archiac, its state that the because of pres believe in the implication wa ure Several letters of complaint were sent to the city's recreation committee, which controls the town's Com- munity Centre, where the dances were held. These letters were augmented by two petitions to the same body. One petition was from the Ajax Baptist Church (which opposes public dancing on Sundays in general). The second, a much milder one, was from the Ajax Min- isterial Association. It objected to Sunday dancing at the Town Community Centre if it conflicted with church services and other church activities. We will go along with the ministerial petition be- cause it is a fair and reasonable attempt to get agers to church on Sundays, which is where they should rightfully be. The Baptist petition, however, leaves us with misgivings. Does it not resemble a thinly disguised attempt to "legislate these youngsters into church," as one Ajax town official aptly put it ? It would seem that these teen-agers would be fa better off dancing publicly in a properly supervised place, such as the Hi-Teen Club on Sundays, than they would be in several other places we can think of. Teen-agers simply will not sit around and twiddle their thumbs on Sundays because a small group frowns on Sabbath dancing, but it seems difficult to get this point across to some people. teen~ SOME PRESS QUOTES OF THE WEEK: "I withdrew from the executive of the Riding Liberal Association a few years ago when I learned the prime requisite for an executive member was that he have a lot of free time and mone y.
