Instead, it was slowly :|spinning on its three - pronged tower at the corner of Colborne and Green street and emitting :|a low wail which could be heard no more than one block away. Later, when time came for the take cover signal, the siren picked up in pitch, but not much. Residents eight blocks from the siren said they could not hear it but residents two miles away on Thickson's road, heard Whitby's take cover. The county's EMO headquar- |ters received the alert via tele- phone in the office of County Assessor Gordon Hepditch, who is county EMO chairman. Mr. Hepditch was called out of town on Monday night to attend a court of revision and could not participate in the early hours of the 24-hour alert. "| Co-ordinating engineer R. E.

Later in the night, Mr. Twelvetrees took over as head oi the county exercise when Mr. Sims was called out to attend a meeting of the Oshawa Sub-) urban Road Comission. In the first hour, Mr. Twelve- trees called all the local EMO chairmen in Ontario County. The alert was given to them at 7:03 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., he had contacted half of the 18 area chairmen by telepione. Several chairmen. were at- tending council meetings or otherwise occupied. Most, said Mr. Sims, were at their stations ready to receive the call. The people of the southern part of the county were alerted by a string of warning sirens. EMO personnel in the northern part of the county were alerted through the Mutual Aid group of fire departments. The Ontario County group was in constant con'act with two re- connaisance units which were patrolling the county. In all, nearly 3,000 persons are in- volved in the EMO program in the county, said one EMO offi- cial. Members of Whitby Police De- partment and Whitby Volunteer Fire Brigade also took part in the exercise. A score of calls were received by the police de-! partment from residents won- dering why the siren never sounded, Then, after it had given its belated wail, four or five called in wondering why the siren had sounded, They had not heard of The highest award in Girl Guiding, the Gold Cord, was presented to a Whitby Guide Leader in an impressive cere- mony last night in St. John's THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, November 14, 1961 § WINS GOLD CORD Anglican church hall.

Basis Reached For Settlement TORONTO (CP)--A basis of settlement in a 10-week prov- ince-wide strike by structural steel riggers was reached Mon- day night. The strike held up completion of major construction projects throughout Ontario. Settlement terms were worked out after 12 hours of ne- gotiations with the aid of Onta- rio's chief conciliation officer, Louis Fine, and conciliation of- ficer R. V. Bradley. The return to work hinges on ratification of the settlement by Toronto, Hamilton and Windsor locais of the International As- sociation of Bridge, Structural and Ornamentai Iron Workers and the Labor Relations Asso- ciation, an employer group. The associatirn has attempted to hold the line against any wage increase that would pierce the 15-cent-an-hour pattern es- tablished under earlier settle- ments with the other unions: The steel riggers, who erect the framework of buildings and bridges, originaliy asked for 30 cents an hour plus seven cents for welfare, but later reduced this to 20 cents plus seven cents for welfare.
