2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturday, May 19, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN J. W. PICKERSGILL BOUND THIS WAY J. W. "Smiling Jack" Pickersgill (the fighting Liberal from Bonavista-Twillingate, Nfld.) will take a swing around the hustings of Ontario County next Tuesday. He will be followed to these parts on Wednesday by no less a personage than his own boss, Liberal lead- er "Mike" Pearson whose yisit in this area, however, will be of brief duration, possibly little more than two hours. The nomination Tuesday of Miss Aileen Hall as NDP candidate was not wunex- pected, despite some signs from T. D. "Tommy" Thom- as that he would accept it if the Provincial command gave him the green light. What Mr. Thomas did was to whip up considerable ex- citement about the NDP pow-wow, so much so that more than 375 crowded into the Hotel Genosha's Picca- dilly Room -- this was a truly impressive turnout for a political nomination meet in this age of television and appalling political apathy. It dem- onstrated (like the Liberal and PC conventions) that there will be a lot of interest in the Ontario riding race. The NDP executive displayed political savvy (as did Miss Hall) when it politely declined an offer from the Board of Education to pay the candidate's salary during her leave- of-absence period. The opposition could have made political hay with this controversial tid-bit, especially those citizens who feel that the municipal tax bit is already too strong. Miss Hall, incidentally, turned out to be a pretty fair speaker in this political debut, much to the pleasure of the delegates who gave her splendid vocal support; like Liberal candidate Norman Cafik, she is politically unknown, but she is forceful, articulate on the platform, That can cover a lot of inexperience if only the candidate can make enough public appearances between now and June 18. MR. PICKERSGILL DOUGLAS TO SPEAK AT OCVI THURSDAY T. C. "Tommy" Douglas, national leader of the National Democratic Party, will speak at the OCVI next Thursday night in support of Miss Aileen Hall, NDP Federal candidate in Ontario riding. Mr. Douglas is without a peer in Canada today as a political orator so that an overflow crowd is as- sured, including many from outside the ranks of the Party. . | The Oshawa and District Real Estate Board expects more than 189 realtors to be their guests here June 27 for their Saleorama Program (designed fo promote the sale of real estate). Delegates will be present from Barrie, Orillia, Peterborough, Lindsay, Belleville and Toronto. There will be panel discussions on such subjects as Listing, Selling and Advertising Real Estate. T. D. THOMAS HAS LONG GM SERVICE T. D. "Tommy" Thomas (MPP for Oshawa riding since 1948) completed 33 years of service with GM's Tool and Die department last April 19. The popular Welsh-born trade unionist said Friday that he will terminate his service with GM at the end of this month, This recalls that the late W. E_.N. Sinclair (who died November 26, 1947) also had unusual success in the Pro- vincial arena as a candidate for this riding (under the Liberal banner.) He won South Ontario riding in 1911. but. was defeated in 1915. He was re-elected in 1919, 1923 and 1926 and remained in Provincial politics until 1934, To get back to T. D. "Tommy" Thomas -- he said nothing to indicate what his "retirement" plans will be. Some shrewd observers of the political scene feel that he can sit in the Legis- lature as long as he wishes. He will be busy most of the Summer on a special Legis- lature committee making a survey of Municipal Government. He has often expressed a desire to take a world cruise with his wife (Mayor Christine Thomas), but this would be difficult while Her Worship is so busy in the municipal world, where she has been active since 1954, There are many voters who say in a jocular way that "Tommy"' has almost as many friends on the opposite side of the political fence as he has in the ranks of labor and that he could be elected, hands down, as a PC or a Liberal. This may be a slight exaggeration, but "Tommy" has displayed great strength at the polls throughout the years. £54 Pe £452. T. D. THOMAS FLYING CLUB HOLDS OPEN HOUSE Forty Royal Canadian Flying Clubs in Canada -- includ- ing the Oshawa Flying Club with 330 members -- are holding "Open House" tomorrow. President E. J. 'Ted'? Reed of the Oshawa Club and Secretary-Manager George Slocombe extend an invitation to Oshawa and district residents to visit the club to see first- hand how the organization operates. 4 The Oshawa club this week started planning for its big annual show, the Fly-In Breakfast, scheduled for Sunday, June 17 this year This is believed to be the largest annual show of its kind in Canada -- last year more than 1100 breakfast were served and 325 aircraft welcomed. Some of the planes came from such distant points as Sarnia, Windsor and Montreal. NOTES FROM THE WORLD OF HIGH FINANCE The world of high finance is an intriguing place some- times, especially to the unitiated. There was an illustration this week at the corner of King east and Ontario streets. Workmen were busy outside the Guaranty Trust (Osh- awa's first trust company), They were' taking down an illuminated, white, plastic sign and replacing it .with a second illuminated, white, plastic sign but with different wording. The sign being removed Deposits." The sign replacing it read: '4 PC on Deposits" A third sign on the company's Ontario street window read in part: "5.10 per cent on term deposits' ("This means from one to five years,"' said a passerby). No company spokesman was available outside to explain the hike on interest rates for deposits, but a workman inter- preted it something like this: "I don't really know what causes these changes. Maybe it's the Diefenbaker government. It may even be the Liberals or the NDP's, but whoever it is, they cauge us @ lot of extra work," he said. read in part: '3' PC on lof physicians' : | certainly not be allowed under : jany circumstances."

Three Toronto men convicted of breaking and entering at a local firm of furriers May 12 are George Michael Reeves, 32, Robert Maclver, 29, both sen- tenced to three years in King- ston penitentiary, and William Michael Burke, 29, sentenced to 15 months definite and three months indefinite in the On- tario reformatory.

The vessels are the James Norris, which arrived a week ago, the Northern Venture. which arrived Thursday, and the Maunaloa, which came in Friday. Judge Thomas J. O'Connor issued a temporary order Tues- day banning picketing by the Maritime Trades Department (AFL-CIO). But the following day, the pickets reappeared bearing signs identifying them- selves as members of the In- land Boatman's Union (AFL- cio .

CHASE THREE BOATS The deputies boarded a Tol- edo police harbor launch and sailed to take into custody seven men picketing in three motorboats. A 15-minute chase resulted. : Only one motorboat, contain- « ing three men, was seized. One boat sped off and the other. went in elusive circles to evade the police alunch. Following the frustrating chase, Judge O'Connor issued another order. He told the sher- riff to provide suffient deputies to enforce his court orders and directed the Lucas County com- missioners to provide whatever -|money was needed to hire more deputies. ; Meanwhile, Lakefront Dock and Terminal went into U.S. district court and obtained an order from Judge Frank I.
