2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, October 8, 1960 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN THE PEOPLE SHOULD DECIDE MOVIE ISSUE Alderman Walter Branch is a brave man He wants Oshawa to follow Toronto's example and include a plebiscite on Sunday movies on the municipal ballot Dec. §. Mr. Branch's proposal will meet its first stiff test at the next open Council meeting, Oct. 17 ~ that's when he will seek Coun~ cil's endorsation of the plebiscite plan, when it will almost surely get a good old ~ fashioned kick~ ing around. Mr, Branch believes that the time has arrived for Sunday movies in Osh~ awa, but he has another reason for bringing up the subject at this time ~~ he thinks it could instill some much-needed interest into the forthcoming campaign, also that it would result in a much larger turnout election day, and he is cer~ tainly on solid ground in ALD, WALTER BRANCH his thinking The question on the ballot would read: "Are you in favor of the city seeking legislation to iegalize the showing of motion pictures and the pre~ sentation of concerts and plays in theatres and halls on Sunday?" This is a many-sided question, involving as it does deep moral issues on the observance of the Sabbath, It is bound to evoke some stirring comment, especially from members of the Oshawa Ministerial Association whose president, Rev, R, B. Milroy, said this week: It ig too early to say what official stand our association will take in this matter, but, for myself, 1 feel that members should voice an opinion, Sunday is one of our greatest blessings from God and strong op~ position. should be voiced if any attempt is made to in~ fringe on its sanctity in any way." Will scme aldermen feel conscience-bound to op- pose this measure from every conceivable angle 7 Will others shy away from it and thwart it at the Council level, for fear of offending influential vote groups? Whatever may be one's views on the subject, this much seems certain -- Council would be acting in a dilatory and undemocratic way if it did anything on Oct. 1" other than to give full support to Mr. Branch's proposed bylaw, The question of Sunday movies, is for the people to decide and they should be given the full op- portunity to do this at the forthcoming municipal election WHALLEY TO RUN FOR SCHOOL BOARD? The new $252,000 CPR railway bridge across Wilson road south will be completed before next Jan, 1 if the present work-schedule is maintained, according to the bourd of works, The city's share of the project is $55,000, The balance will be paid by the Department of Highways, the Board of Transport Commissioners and the CPR. The detour caused by the job is a great inconvenience to school students and motorists alike, , Frea T, Whalley, manager-coach of the Oshawa Hawks basketball team writes in that Harry A. Finer, managing-director of the Hotel Genosha, has pledged $200 to the support of the team and that the Hawks will practice next Wednesday at the "high-priced" Don~ evan gym, Mr, Finer, (a former basketball player), has set a fine example for other public spirited citizens to follow by encouraging the Hawks, a truly-amateur team. Mr, Whalley concluded his note with this timely paragraph: "Oh yes! When election time rolls around Dec, 5, dor"t be too surprised if you see my name on the Board of Education ballot, 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em' might be a good slogan, . , . An Oshawa man would like OCVI to institute a course in "Municipal Law" on its night school curriculum with the possibility of attracting more and better-trained aldermanic can=- didates. Would it be that he's disturbed by the lack of knowledge (especially with the Ontario Municipal Act) displayed by some of our city fathers ? Such a course could acquaint would-be candidates with some of the legal complexities of Council life, would likely stimu late' far more interest in municipal politics, Would readers have any constructive suggestions along these lines ? HON, LOUIS CECILE TO OPEN HILLSDALE The Hon, Louis Cecile, provincial minister of welfare, is scheduled to visit Oshawa on Wednesday, Oct, 26 to officially open the $1,250,~ 000 Hillsdale Manor, the city's new home for the aged, The first residents were moved into the manor several weeks ago and there was a total of 133 admitted up to Tues day night, Alderman Cecil Bint, of the home for the aged committee, said new arriv- als were coming at the rate of four per day and that the capacity figure of 200 would likely be reached before the end of the year as space became available. There is usually a waiting list of 30, The home has a stall - of 52 HON, LOUIS CECILE OIC CAN GET TOO HUSH-HUSH The hush-hush atmosphere surrounding activities of the Oshewa Industrial Commission is generally under~ standable, even desirable at times, but there are other times wher. it gets nauseating, when it amounts to little more tnan bureaucratic stupidity at best. These are the times when the commission usually in the performance of some simple duty arouses the ire of responsible people by its rigid adherence to these cloak- and-dagger tactics.

Malloy (general manager of R. D. Werner Co, (Canada) Ltd. here) as the city's representative on the three-man Oshawa Harbor Commission Surh loyal Bastedo supporters as Alderman 8, T, Honkins fell quickly into line, but the proposal was any~ thing but unanimous. Audible sighs of protest rang out around the Chamber, especally from Alderman Gordon Attersley who said such n.atters should be aired at council=in-committee meetings," especially when we're dealing with personalities," Alderman Thomas agreed, Brady and Walker, What annoyed the Attersley-Thomas group no end was Lhe fact they were being asked to vote on something they didn't have a chance to study previously, It had been presented at the last minute They had no axe to grind with Mr, Malloy because they didn't even know him, or knew him only casually. Rut Alderman Bastedo, (whose view frequently gets discolorea on Industrial Park matters), remained ad- amant, He defended the choice by saying that it was the decision of the OIC that one of ils members should sit on the harbor commission, Mr Malloy's appointment was sledge - hammered through Council in a nolsy, controversial manner (with IMayor Gifford casting the deciding vote) when it should have been handled with diplomacy and tact Such tactics reflect anything but glory on the In- |dustrial Commission, as did Dafoe, Down, ALEX OAKLEY IS HOME SO LET'S ACT Olympic Walker Alex Oakley, a quiet uming man, arrived home unostentatiously this week and lost little time in getting back to his job in the south plant {body shop at GM, The city should loge little time in extending him a {civic welrome, as suggested recently by Alderman John Brady.

Application has been made in Daggitt's appropriations next vear for $15,000 to start three beef - cattle nursery herds, A common practice, they are used to start herds on reservations that offer good grazing, like Brokenhead, He hopes at least one herd will be approved for his Clandeboye agency running up the east side of Lake Winnipeg. Beef has proved a good source of income elsewhere, notably on the Alberta Rlood reservation, Canada's biggest, where a com. wunal herd is run, ATTENTION RETAILERS !!
