2 L About 90 crippled children from Oshawa and district at- tended the Oshawa Rotary Club annual summer picnic at Camp Samac Monday. Help- ing these children is the major project of the club. The camp is located just north of Osh- awa and is operated by the | Boy Scouts. Activities in which the children partici- pated were boating, pony rides, swimming, rides on a merry-go-round and on a 1912 model car.

A dhe Oshavon Sines Warning | Sounded On Weeds Unless owners of vacant city lands co-operate by keeping their weeds cut, the city will have to do the job--perhaps at increased cost to the owner. City Engineer Fred Crome says in the last few years more and more people have been sit. ting back, neglecting their prop- erties, and letting the city cut the weeds. This could mean the hiring of more men and the buying of additional equipment, increas- ing the cost to the city; or overtime weed cutting, which would raise the cost to the owner: For the last two weeks a 10- man crew equipped with scythes man crew equipped with scythes, three mowers and a budget which did not foresee ex- tra work on private lands (they work on boulevards and ecity- owned lands) has been working on private lands only in an attempt to catch up with weeds which have grown rapidly as a result of the wet spring. Mayor Thomas has called on offending landowners in the city to take steps to have properties cleaned of weeds at the earliest opportunity. "We don't want to use the Weed Control Act," she said; under this Act the city may cut weeds on vacant private prop- erty and bill the owner. Last Friday, The Times ran pictures of Her Worship on a tour of Oshawa's weed 'gar- dens". Yesterday, she reported callers are 'loading me down with addresses of properties where weeds are a problem."

Congratulations are in order for the Fernhill entry which depict- ed "Life de Paris', which was so vivid. The dancing girls were simply gorgeous and Eiffel Tow- er with its stately spires held the position of honor in the float. Supervisors Janet Sparl- ing and Lisa Feldberg express their appreciation to the boys and girls at Fernhill who have won the best float for the third consecutive year. With only two more weeks left of playground activities three more special city-wide activities move into the front and centre this week. Bicycle Rodeo at Alexandra Park on Tuesday, the Kite Derby at Lakeview Park on Thursday and the Arts and Crafts Display at each of the individual parks on Friday. Each of these activities requires some hard work, but rich re- wards to the winning partici- pants. Included somewhere in this myriad of activities are a num- ber of park pet shows that are designed to choose a pet from each park that will be entered in the Pet Contest at the Osh- awa Fair. PET TURTLE At the present time the fol lowing pets have been chosen-- "Georgie" Washington, a pet turtle from Sunset Heights, own. ed by John Coleman: "Blondie", a pet dog, owned by Kingside Park's Wayne Aasen; Drew All- man's pet chihuahua from East- view; "Thunder", a French poo- dle from Fernhill Park, owned by Scott Mercer.

When h t-year-old Penny. Barry says the | w, Trinket Lady is the unusual name given to Woodview Park's entry owned by Kenneth Kis- sock. Trinket Lady is a Mexican Chihuahua and is described as being timid and gentle. There is every indication judging by these entrants that this year's contest will be close and diffi- cult to judge. Among other special events last week, a Talent Show was well received at Kingside Park. Among the contestants were Beverley Henderson, Marlene Halikowski, Heather Pavary, Georgette Sworik and Denise Chapman. Victor Reed was given a spec- ial award as "Father of the Day" at Sunnyside Park as a Doll and Buggy Show was held at the park. Other winners in- cluded Sherry Smith, best dec- orated buggy; Lisa Petrowsky, biggest buggy, and Janis Van- DeWalker the smallest buggy. North Oshawa Park children participated in an unusual activ- ity, they set up a car wash and made just enough money to have a wiener roast, before they decided that it was a "pretty tough job after all". Mike Karas utilized the Penny Fair parade and the Penny Fair in a unique and enterpris- ing manner in his art classes the following day at Rundle Park. Mike, a first-year play- ground leader, had each of the children draw and paint what Man In Uniform Flees E_Berlin BERLIN (AP)--An East Ber- lin factory militiaman in full uniform, his steel helmet hang- ing from his belt, fled to the West today. His family fled several days ago and he was waiting his chance when the Communists shut down the East-West Berlin border Sunday. Police said he sneaked up to border behind an advertis- sign and then made a quick "Thank God, now I'm free." they liked best about the Penny to say the least. Connaught Park's fire department under the lead- ership of Shaaron Culley and Wayne Clark quickly extinguish- ed a fire that occurred on the CNR's Adelaide street yards. In- vestigation showed that the fire probably began as a result of the sun shining through a piece of glass which acted as a magni- fying glass and initiated the blaze. Other members of the quick-acting crew were Paul McVety, Lance and Burke Maid- low, and Victor and Walter Har-| rison. Carol Evans and Bonnie Crou- ter seem to be having difficul- ties at Storie Park this summer. Source of their trouble is a set of identical twins, Terry and David. The difficulty was straightened out however when| it was found that Terry could cross his eyes but David could not. A Park Bicycle Rodeo was held last week at Storie to pre- pare for this week's city-wide event. Prizes were won by Ron Parfitt, Bob Cameron, Bob Whit- sitt, Neil Fry and Tom Clark.

But the gate was locked and the watch- man was away. The watchman's wife had an idea. Picking up a big, heavy stone, she suggested to the king: "You hold the lock and let me hit it." Her aim was not good. The . blow hit the king's knuckles. The king's comments were not recorded. By JACK BEST Canadian Press Staff Writer HAVANA (CP) -- "Something cooking. I don't know what it is, but something is definitely cooking." That is a refrain heard often these days in the sun-drenched streets of Havana. Invasion talk is in the air. : Whether it is based on any- thing more substantial than guesswork and wishful thinking is, in the opinion of many res | ponsible observers -- including | a number of diplomats -- doubt- | ful. It seems mainly those Cubans who yearn for the end of the present regime who keep the talk going and the rumors fly- ing. One gets the impression that their chief inspiration comes from the Cuban exiles in Florida, who keep trying to en- courage their kinfolk here by sending vague hints that some kind of move is being prepared by the United States. CASTRO CONCERNED The government itself how- ever obviously is concerned about the possibility of an at- tack. It adds fuel to the inva- sion speculation by constantly charging that "Yankee imper- ialists" are plotting "new ag- gressions" against Cuba. Evidence that Fidel Castro's revolutionary government is not just making a noise is easy to come by. Guns and strongpoints| press has been highly suspiciou}|per have been set up at various|of the motives behind President|$100 {veloped by Adlai Havana. Roads and bridges have been prepared for possible mining. The militia is kept in a state of constant alert. Now and then Russian-made fighters -- a recent acquisition for Castro's air force -- whistle over Havana in practice runs. There is a tendency among informed people here to link the question of Cuba with that of Berlin. It is said that if Berlin comes to a showdown the United States will be forced to move against Communist - oriented Cuba to protect its flank. CONTRASTING VIEW The antithesis of this is that the U.S. cannot move against Cuba because it might provoke Russia into trying to seize West Berlin. In some quarters it is be- lieved the United States is try- ing 'to line up support through the Organization of American States for action against Cuba. Political and economic as well as military' sanctions are said to be the objective. Again, the government itself| tends to lend credence to this| view. Armed Forces Minister Raoul Castro has denounced gress" scheme and the Punta del Este economic conference. DISPUTED POINT Just how powerful an inva- sion force would be necessary to bring down the Cuban regime is a hotly disputed question here. Some of the more rabid coun- ter-revolutionaries say it would collapse if only a force were landed strong enough to estab lish and maintain a sizable beachhead. Other observers say it would take an all-out operation, with the U.S. far more deeply com- mitted than in the April fiasco. The strength of the Castro militia is usually placed by res- ponsible observers at 200,000 to 250,000, that of the regular Cu- ban army at perhaps 30,000. The fighting qualities of neither has ever really been tested. Meanwhile the fact that Cuba still holds 1,200 prisoners from t shares exempt from Need Guide On Shelters Mayor Christine Thomas is in no hurry to have council follow the lead of the St. city fathers who last week de- cided to exempt fallout shelters from taxation. "Shelters must be defined in| the Assessment Act or there is| no basis on which to assess,' said the mayor. "The Act will have to be made specific as to materials used and other things. We need regulations to follow." The Emergency Measures co-ordinator for this area says Ontario and the federal govern- ment should work together, hrough EMO, to come to an agreement on taxation. "No municipality has the right to change the Assessment Act," agreed Col. F. S. Wotton, "any added rooms would have to be assessed and taxed. "But the province might say to the federal government: 'We are willing not to tax if you| income tax the money a homeowner spends in building his shelter'." Says Col. Wotton: "We defi- nitely need to offer incentives to encourage people to build fallout shelters." the April invasion attempt is believed in some quarters to tie the hands of anybody planning an invasion. Their fate as vir- tual hostages of Castro would have to be taken into account, Train-Car Crash Injures Couple ORILLIA (CP)--A Peterbor- Catharines In this she the opinion of Eldon Kerr, city assessment commis- sioner, who feels that there must be a guide, something to bo by.

Sing's death could touch off a wave of violence that would sorely test the unity of India. He heads an extremist faction that has seized leadership of India's 6,000,000 Sikhs.
