2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mendey, Jenuery 39, 198) GOOD EVENING = By JACK GEARIN DAVIS orys HIGH CORPS POST Frank A. Davis of 22 Elm street has been appointed to the six-man executive command of The Canadian Association of Ontario (Provincial command), & ig E Frank is former ha president of Unit 42 (Osh- awa) of the CCAO, one of Ontario's fastest - growing b® corps units with more than 500 members and hand- some, newly ~ renovated club rooms on Richmond street west, He likes to recall that Unit 42 was first organized in the Hotel Genosha in 1946, that the group later operated in a small way in 2 house on Albert street ~ their pet projects are children's sports, aid to neighborhood sssociations and they pledged to fur-~ nish a $2,000 room at the Oshawa General Hospital FRANK DAVIS in 1960, Prank is married to the former Velma Dowson and they have four children, He was a signals instructor overseas in the Second World War with the Northshore Regiment, New Bruns~ wick (with the rank of sergeant) and landed -in France on D-Day with that unit GREEK STUDENTS NEED BOOKS Peter Bakogeorge of Oshawa made an appeal today for used, hard-cover books on the arts, science and his- tory ("of no value to the owner") to send to needy stu- dents and libraries in Greece, His phone number is RA 5-0732. The drive is sponsored by the American Hellenic Educational and Progressive Association (of which he is a member) with affiliate chapters in Canada, Books on Canadien snd British history especially are wanted, He will arrange for collection , , , The 1860-61 yearbook of the Canadian Racing Pigeon Union, Ine will include an illustrated article on Eddie Gibbie, who lives on a farm near Courtice, Mr, Gibbie,( long con~ fined to 8 wheelchair from injuries received in the First World War), is a staunch supporter of the sport of rac~ ing pigeons, He has more than 40 birds in his pens, He presented 40 birds to the RCAF for service in the Second World War, Author of the article Jack Askew of Oshawa, Lorps 18 DO-IT-YOURSELF DRY CLEANING These are exciting days for Oshawa and district dry cleaners, Thanks to a new invention --- a coin-operated, do- it-yourself dry cleaning machine soon to be distributed by half a dozen or more Canadian firms -- their busi» ness horizons could change suddenly, The first model Canadian-made went on display in Toronto last week and initial targets for distribution are: Dry cleaners, Existing coin laundry stores with enough space -- and capital -- to go into dry cleaning, too, The idea is simple; you put your dry ¢leaning into a machine like an automatic washer, stick quarters in the slot and get the clothes back clean, but unpressed, The job would cost about one-quarter the cost of con~ ventional dry cleaning, but there are hitches: Coins in the slot won't buy finishing and pressing, And pre-spotting special treatment of stains won't be possible, The machines can be operated for $1.25 to $1.50 per 8 to 10 pound load, which would cover about three average suits, Cleaning time would be between 30 and 45 minutes, It is not known whether the machine would affect the present volume of business or attract new markets, but the best guess is that they would tap new markets -- old garments, children's clothes, overalls, Said one manufacturer; "This thing needs proper education of the public and training of operators, or it might backfire," Initial estimate of outlay for an adequate combina~ tion store using one equipment is about $45,000 -- this would include 20 washers, eight dryers, and a bank of eight dry cleaning units, Douglas Peggs of Whitby, president of the Lake shore division, Ontario Dry Cleaners Institute (whose district extends from Ajax to Cobourg) said that ODCI members are anxious to take a "close look" at the new machines, if they have not already done so, "It's a little early to make any decisions, but we are keeping abreast of these changes and will study the new models at shows in Philadelphia and Toronto," he said, "Such an innovation could be a great boom to the industry, but we will know more about it soon," he said, Some appliance makers are avoiding the new de- velopment and there are dry cleaning interests who say that the units are too small, that fluids will not be prop- erly filtered and that untrained people just can't man- age a technical job like this, Kenneth Gillard of Oshawa, a former president of the Ontario Dry Cleaners and Launderers' Institute, is frankly skeptical about the coin-operated machines, which he inspected at a convention in Chicago last year, "They leave a lot to be desired, especially for people who have no knowledge of fibre content", Mr, Gillard said coin-operated machines pressing will soon be on the market, He said that Canadians spent $88,804,594 in dry cleaning in 1859, Oshawa had 12 plants in 1058 (it now has 10) that reported total sales of $342,120 -- or $6.20 per capita, Mr. Gillard is a director of the Canadian Research Institute of Launderers and Cleaners and was recently named to the executive committee of the ODCI until 1963, He is at a Philadelphia convention to study the new machines, to do NOTES ON A REGIMENTAL BAND Speaking of Pop concerts-- When the Band of the Ontario Regiment pre- sents its first Pop concert of the season at OCVI next Friday night (with Rev, George Telford as MC and Ross Cotton as soloist) it will be an historic occasion: It will mark the start of the 15th year of "Pops" at OCVI for this popular Oshawa musical organization, The series was started by the late Jack Broadbent, as bandmaster, and an average of three concerts were held annually, The band has another anniversary upcoming this year, according to Reg, W, Martyn, the organization's amiable publicist, who has been playing the coronet for 45 years (he started at nine): It will start its 20th season of performance on the bandshell in Memorial Park -- the first performance was held in July of 1942 and only four of the original members are still active, They are George Hood, John Allison, Bert Bathe and Mr, Martyn, {lin said of his class;
