w 2 THR OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, April 18, 1967 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN FESTIVAL SERVES LONG-FELT NEED Oshawa's upcoming "Folk Festival" on May 14 sounds like quite a show. It is also a big step in the right' direction -- one long overdue--to help bring together in a social way the various groups of our community. The desire of executives is to have all groups rep- resented in this colorful extravangédza of song, dance and music. "If there is a purpose at all in "Folk Festival," said a spokesman today, "it is to show that if we can work together, we can also play together" and Labor Minister Starr has already announced that there is a long-felt need for such affairs as this, There will be French, German, Scottish, Polish, Ukrainian, Italian, Dutch Welsh and Irish performers, all in native costume, and more than 800 are expected, including spectators--the Band of the Ontario Regiment under Bandmaster Frank Francis will provide the music. One phase of Canadian folk music will be presented by a group from the Circle 8 Square Dancing Club, with Dr, A, P. Fulton acting as caller. This is a non-profit making venture and there will be no admission; but there will be a collection to help defray expenses--any surplus will be turned over to charity. The festival will be held in St, Gregory's Hall. INTER-GROUP PLAN STUDIED Encouragement of inter-group relations is receiving serious study here. For instance, a committee on intergroup relations was appointed recently at meeting attended by more than 37 (Mayor Christine Thomas was chairman). The meeting followed a request from the Ontario Welfare Council that such an organization be started to help citizens recently-arrived from other countries (and others who will come), to adjust themselves to the Canadian environment. Her Worship said that she was fully in accord with the plan and that invitations had been mailed to many ethnic, cultural, religious and service groups (as well as individuals) who might support the venture, It was pointed out that the new citizens are happy but they must be drawn into the community as a whole and share in the many activities available. A con- ference, with the same objective, was sponsored in 1960 by the Department of Immigration--the Ontario Wel- tare Council is sponsoring this year's program. The Council is financed by grants, fees and Commun= ty Chests to work in a way different to the Government. The subject under study is the integration of immi- grants with the present established population. LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Approval by the Minister of Planning and Develop- ment of a plan of subdivision for the Holshawa Ltd. site in northeast Oshawa is expected within the next two weeks, Holshawa, a Dutch-financed company, will not build on the 78-acre site, but will offer lots for sale . +» Alderman John Dyer was forced to follow City Council proceedings Monday night via radio from his hospital bed in the Oshawa General Hospital, where he has been a patient for the past 10 days. John is reported to be improving rapidly and hopes to be out of the hospital soon . . .

He will likely return ay 2, ® ¥ THE SAKE OF THE RECORD Just to clear the record: : The city did not buy a quarter-acre site, containing a small factory building, on Russett street in North Oshawa this week, as was rumored so widely in real estate circles, The property and building was purchased by Walter Lane, a City Counciller, as a private citzen on behalf of "a business group". No plans have been announced for usage of the building formerly occupied by Oshawa Structural Steel. DOCTOR TASTES LIFE ON A "BRIG" How does it feel to sail the high seas as a passenger= crewman aboard a famous brigantine? : Dr. Claude Vipond of Oshawa knows first-hand. That's exactly what he did for 10 days recently aboard the 51-year-old brigantine "Yankee" (that has made five round-the-world cruises with U.S. college students, visiting such off-beat points as Pitcairn Island). : * The "Yankee" carried 30 (including two cooks and five regular crewmen) on a leisurely and informal cruise of the Caribbean recently with Dr. Vipond aboard, call- ing at such out-of-the-way ports as Abago and Stirrup in the Bahamas group after starting out from the Island of Bimini, 50 miles east of Miami. The doctor describes Bimini as "The game fish capital of the world". It was there that he saw 750-pound Marlins hauled in. : The "Yankee's" passengers did more than go along for the ride. Dr, Vipond helped hoist the sails, took position with the sextant, worked in the galley cleaning fish, took over the wheel, fished and swam. He visited the Lerner Marine Laboratory in Bimini where scientists are seeking a super-deterrent for sharks. He climbed to the top of a lighthouse on Great Isaac Island in the Gulf stream. . He even saw Lady Nora Docker from a distance as she strolled about her luxury yacht (it has a crew of 34) in harbor at Nassau. Those are some of the things that can happen to those who sail a brigantine, ("A piratical ship"). British actor Peter Ustinov and acresss Shirley Jones hold the Oscars they won at OSCAR WINNERS Santa Monica, Calif., last night as best supporting actor and actress of the year. Ustinov By JAMES BACON SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) "I feel weak but wonderful," said Elizabeth Taylor after win- ning her first Oscar Monday night--a few months after re- covering from a brush with 'death. The beautiful star, who won the best actress award for her role as the girl-about - town in Butterfield 8, nearly fainted twice during the 90 - minute Academy Awards show. Miss Taylor, nominated four straight years for the movies' big award, stole the 38rd annual Oscar show from the other win- tor; Shirley Jones, best support- ing actress, and Peter Ustinov, 4 [best supporting actor. Ustinov § lis married to the former Su- zanne Cloutier of Ottawa. The Apartment won five awards, including best picture and best direction (by Billy Wilder). 4 |CUT IT SHORT 4 | All /the winners posed back- stage for p hot og raphers but Miss Taylor got weak in the knees and had to cut her pos- ing short. Accompanied by hus- band Eddie Fisher and her doc- ¥4 tor, she swayed shakily toward i lan open door. The fresh air re- vived her quickly--and she was all smiles again. Earlier, on her arrival, she had to rest 15 minutes before entering the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. The show, telecast over ABC-TV, was well under way before she was able to make it to her seat. Top Stars, Movies Win Coveted Trophies ---- that had taken him from New York slums through circus ac- robatics to movie stardom. Miss Jones clutched her Os- car and thanked another Oscar --the late Oscar Hammerstein. It was Hamm er stein and Richard Rodgers who picked the 27-year-old brewer's daugh- ter from Smithton, Pa., to play the ingenue lead in Oklahoma and Carousel. PAY TO BE BAD? But it was her switch to the hardboiled tart of Elmer Gan- try that won her the Oscar. "I guess it pays to be bad on the screen," she said. The bearded Ustinov, who won an Oscar for his portrayal of a gladiator school operator in Spartacus, flew in from Rome to attend the ceremonies. The 40-year-old London - born actor-producer-director - author was calmest of all the nomin- ees, Asked why, he replied: Bergman's The Virgin Spring was named best foreign langu- age film. DISNEY WINS PENTICTON, BC. (8P)--A development company has asked the city for a 20-year lease on Munson's Mountain here. It plans to tuin the site into a "I guess the others were not at Dunkerque." Ustinov served as a private in the British Army during the war. Special Oscars were given tol Gary Cooper and Stan Laurel among others. Neither was well enough to attend. Spartacus was runnerup to Apartment with four Oscars. Swedish producer Ingemar SCHABERGER TAILORING MOVED: FROM 4 ALBERT ST. ff TO 50 KING ST.

It took six months in 1911 for him to save the $30 or $40 for a grub stake to take him to the Kirkland Lake rush.
