on \ 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, April 24, 1962 GOOD EVENING | By JACK GEARIN OAKVILLE REPEATS OSHAWA'S PARADE MISTAKE Too bad Oakville's parade committee for the Jelineks homecoming reception didn't check with Oshawa's commit- tee on the Don Jackson show ! It could have learned how not to welcome homecoming heroes who have won the plaudits of the international skating world. The idea of the Oshawa parade was to try and keep the spotlight on Don Jackson; somehow the parade committee had the mistaken idea that a more representative yparade would detract from the homecoming hero. It insisted that the parade be limited to the new champion, one band, some majorettes and some of our duly elected representatives. Oakville made the same mistake as Oshawa in that it restricted its parade to approximately a seven-car caravan, Ross Rawlings, president of the Oakville Downtown Mer- chants' Association, called it one of the '"'most disgraceful" parades Oakville has ever produced ("Officials would have done better not to have had any parade at all," he said.) Thousands lined Oakville's streets to welcome Maria and Otto Jelinek, but there was only one band in the parade, the Lorne Scots Regiment Pipe Band from Brampton called in at the last minute when other Oakville bands could not be obtained. A lack of communication on the part of the parade committee was blamed for the poor turnout of participants-- a police constable saved the day for the Busbee Majorettes when he stepped into the parade to beat a drum after the majorettes said. they could not perform to the music of pipe band CITY'S AVERAGE FIRE LOSS $355,074 Oshawa (with a population of 61,350) had a total of 291 fires in 1961 for a total fire loss of $778,921, according to the 1961 Annual Report of the Fire Marshal of Ontario. Oshawa's five-year average for the number of fires was 252 -- its five-year average loss was $355,074. Kitchener (population 74,522) had 296 fires for a total loss of $245,235 -- Kitchener's five-year average was 306. Its five-year average loss -- $391,351. Sudbury (population 79,281) had 274 fires for a total loss $283,590. Its five-year average for number of fires was 183. Its five-year average loss was $344,730. The big need for Oshawa's fire department is a new station for the densely populated east end area, but the City's budget simply will not allow it at this time. Fire protection cost the City $588,964.68 in 1960. PLAN BARRICADE FOR HARBOR 4 Chairman Sam Jackson of the Oshawa Harbor Commission says that approval is expected from Ottawa soon of the OHC's blueprint plans for a "'barricade" at the harbor to prevent further fatalities -- Alderman Albert V. Walker in- quired recently when such action would be taken. . . They're still seeking a name for Shirley Harmer's upcoming television show, the one that. will replace the Tommy Ambrose Show Fridays at 9 p.m. She will head a cast of semi-regular and occasional guests. . . . The Board of Education will contact City Police in an effort to control smoking by 'students near City Schools. William A. Smith, school attendance officer, called the matter to the Board's attention recently. LABOR MINISTER OFF TO THE HUSTINGS Labor Minister Michael Starr has an _ extra-busy agenda set now that the date of the Federal election has been set (June 18). Here is part of his schedule: April 25 -- St. Paul's nomination meet, Toronto; April 26 -- Ontario riding nomination meet; April 27 -- RCAF Association Ball, Oshawa; April 30 -- Davenport (Toronto) nomination meet; May 2 -- Wellington South nomination, Guelph; May 4 -- Parkdale nomination (Toronto); May 5 -- Boy Scout Annual Dinner, Oshawa; May 7 -- St. Hyacinthe, Que., Lions Club; May 11 -- Hamilton Institute of Technology; May 17 -- open- ing of a school in Moncton, N.B.; May 21 -- Toronto Fur Workers Union Banquet; May 23 -- Oshawa Builders Asso- ciation Civic Night. MORE NOTES ON THE CM PLAN : (Following is the answer to the final question recently sent in by Mr. Keith Ross in his letter about the City Manager Plan of government?) QUESTION NO. 10 -- DON'T YOU THINK IT WOULD BE UNFAIR TO HAVE A CITY MANAGER PAID A HIGH SALARY, WHILE OUR MAYOR CONTINUES TO BE PAID ON THE BASIS OF PART-TIME WORK, WHETHER WORK- ING FULL-TIME OR NOT. I AM REFERRING TO THE MAYOR'S SALARY OF $3,000 PER ONLY AND NOT THE EXPENSES RECEIVED. The role of the City Manager is far different to that of the mayor. The mayor is answerable to the electorate. The CM is answerable to the Council (including the mayor) The CM is not a political man, He is a man of good intelligence, background and training (fo be an administrator and co- ordinator), The mayor of a City may also possess thése qualifications or background, but it is not essential for the performance of his (or her) duties as his work is of a different nature than that of a CM. The role of the mayor frequently includes heavy administration duties (attendance at time-consuming, late-hour meetings, etc.) The role of the modern mayor also includes heavy social duties. The two must be separated to get a clear understanding of the role of the CM. Mayor Thomas rarely deputizes a councillor to repre- sent her at the numerous banquets, dinners, etc., to which she is invited annually. She attends each personally, except in rare cases, because she believes that the mayor should meet the people face to face as often as possible. This is an admirable trait, but it exacts a big toll in time and energy (as some past mayors have learned) and cuts into the time left for the mayor's administrative duties. If Mr. Ross is suggesting that a full-time mayor would be an , adequate replacement for a CM he is unrealistic. If a full- time mayor attempted to assume a CM's duties chaos would result because many of the mayor's essential duties would be neglected, such as the round of social banquets (an inte- gral part of any mayor's schedule). No suggestion is in- tended that the mayor does not have far more important duties than the above, such as providing leadership, keep an over-all eye on proceedings, etc. The question of a revision in the mayor's salary de- serves serious consideration, but it should not be allowed to prejudice the case for a CM. Mr. Ross says the mayor's salary is $3,000 without expenses. Her Worship gets $5,000 annually, one third of which is deductible for expenses. She also receives $500 for serving on the Police Commission and $250 for serving on the PUC, Out-of-town convention expenses are also paid. Strike Closes j and the shipping public. TORONTO (CP) -- Two ar- chitects of the new three stream program for Ontario's secon- dary schools predicted Monday that the scheme will boost stan- dards 'and reduce the number of "dropouts" from the -school system. Premier John Robarts and R. H. Wallace, assistant super- intendent of secondary educa- tion, were both speakers at the opening-day sessions of the an- nual conference of the Ontario Educational Association. Premier Robarts said the pro- gram will "go far towards re- moving any tendency to regard one branch of study as more acceptable, socially or other- wise, than another' by allow- ing students to reach Grade 13 and proce@ to university from any of tbe three streams. The plan, he said, would boost educational standards while fa- School Plar. Foreseen Boost For Standards jcilitating '"'achievement of the best of which they are capabl by pupils having varied inter ests, abilities and educationa objectives." The three fields--arts and sci ence, business and commerce and technciogy and trades-- would allow each pupil to de velop to the fullest extent, hx said, while reducing "the alarming rate of dropouts ir secondary schools." | WILL GIVE SKILLS | The program would ensure "that many 'students who now fail to progress above Grade 12 will leave schoo] with salable skills." Mr. Wallace, addressing a meeting of the Ontario Seond- ary School Headmasters' Asso- ciation, said the program will not include arbtirary direction of pupils into a particular |framework of study.
