WHAT IS WORST ASPECTOF KING ST. TRACKS? GORDON SLOAN, Lakeshore road, retired | "I have been in this city since 1919. I have always wondered why they have these tracks here. They could have trucks to supply these few businesses. I remember there was a hobo here once, who saw this freight going west. He grabbed it because he thought it was leaving town."" Handicapped Children Will Fly Sunday, Mar. 18, has been set as the definite date when members of the Oshawa Flying Club will treat many handicapp- ed children of the Oshawa and district area to the thrill of fly- ing. Should poor flying condi- tions prevail the event will be postponed to Mar. 25 From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. mem bers of the club will take the disabled children on 20 minute flights over Oshawa and the surrounding districts. The pro- gram has been arranged to help in the Easter Seal Campaign At least 20 private and club aircraft will participate in the "flying circus', as it will be called, and it is expected that over 40 handicapped children will be taken aloft. According to flying club officials, it is the first time in Canada, and prob- ably the first in North America, that such an operation has taken place. The Oshawa F'ly- ing Club is well renowned for its firsts. The entire cost for the event vin JEAN D EY, rindale drive, housewife "Tl would agree with any- thing bad you might say about these tracks. They are a real nuisance, But they will get them It may cost too much." MRS Club To Launch Easter Seal Drive The Rotary Club of Oshawa, at its luncheon meeting in Hotel Genosha on Monday, will launch its annual Easter Seal Cam- paign. Each household in the district receives sheets of the seals and the money raised goes to assist the club. in its work among crippled children Since the club abandoned Ro- tary Fair, which it held for many years in Rotary Park in June of each year, its main source of revenue has been de- rived from its Easter Seal Cam- paign, Half the proceeds of the campaign remain with the local club. The other half is forward- ed to the Ontario Society for Crippled Children which main- tains a rehabilitation centre in Toronto and operated a number of summer camps for crippled children across the province Rotarian James McCansh will Intense Despair In East Germany By LOYAL GOULD LEIPZIG (AP)--The pall of despair has intensified in East Germany in the seven months will be paid for by the flying since the Communists built their club. When a pilot takes a child up for a 20 minute spin he signs for his flying time immediately upon landing and is there- fore charged for the flight. An organization taking an ac- tive interest in the flyng circus is the Oshawa Rotary Club. The Rotary "fathers' contact the parents of the children and ar- range to transport them to and from the, airport. Members of the Oshawa Rotary Club have taken an active part in handi- capped children's affairs each member acting as a part time "father", or helping to support one or two of the crippled chil- dren. Refreshments for the children will also be served at the air- port. If all goes well, Sunday, Mar 18, should be a colorful day for any spectators as well as the children.

A dreary conformity showed through the artificial atmosphere of festivity created during the fair. Leipzigers in conversations expressed fear that Walter UI- bricht, East Germany's top Communist, has entrenched his position in the last few months. His fellow citizens voice little hope of a letup in the daily pressure to conform to his con- cepts of communism Ulbricht is regarded as a Stalinist whose repressive meas- ures have not ased_ espite changes in some other Commu- nist countries. Here are three comments the reporter heard: "We're getting- more Russian than the Russians ever were.' "The work norms are boosted almost every three months and we have to work longer hours for less."' "You either pretend support for the government--or else." Police controls have tightened since Aug. 13 when the Berlin wall was started. "The janitors in the apart- ment buildings aren't real jani- tors any more,'"' a woman said.

Charges Laid For Keeping Of Wolf, Pups SAULT STE. MARIE (CP)-- John McGovern, his pet wolf Cindy, his dog Sean and five hybrid pups arrived in town Thursday. Today the wolf and the pups are lodging with the Humane So- |ciety and McGovern is in Sud- bury to answer a charge of keep- ing wild animals without per- mission. : McGovern, a native of Hull, Que., began his wanderings with the wolf and dog in British Co- lumbia, where he told Van- couver newspapers he found Cindy, injured and sick, beside the road near Dawson Creek. Since that time he has hitch- hiked across and around Can- ada. A month ago he was told by officials in Sudbury to get his pets out of town. Permissioin from the lands department to keep the wolf until the end of May was cancelled earlier this week. He was warned Tuesday that the wolf and the pups would be seized. On Wednesday he disap- peared. On Thursday he was picked up as he walked along the road near Sault Ste. Marie. Keith Acheson, regional direc- tor of the ands department, said Cindy and pups will not be destroyed, but taken to Algon- quin Park. Conservation officials have said McGovern was using his wolf and the pups for financial gain, contrary to provincial sta- tutes.
