2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, July 5, 1964 GOOD EVENING .By JACK GEARIN , COUNCIL WILLING TO TALK WITH 3 FIRMS The King street CNR tracks issue is as full of surprises as a Hitchcock murder thriller. City Council, in a dramatic and unexpected move Tues- day, agreed to resume negotiations for a settlement on condi- tion that all three firms using the tracks attend. The action was taken after two of the three firms wrote Council with a request that negotiations be resumed. Council, at any rate, has agreed to a meeting tonight at City Hall under those conditions. Mayor Thomas and all councillors will be present -- some may criticize the fact that Council didn't first appoint a special committee to meet with the firms in the prelim- inary stages to facilitate matters more quickly; such critic- ism is not without merit but, in all fairness to Council, it it did appear anxious to get along with the negotiation busi- ness as quickly as possible because of the time element. If work is to get started this year, there is need for haste; also, several councillors will be absent on holidays. during Aug- ust, It will be difficult to get a quorum. If all parties concerned -- the firms as well as our duly elected representatives -- approach the negotiations table in a spirit of reasonable compromise, (and not with petty selfishness), there is every reason to believe that the com- plex municipal problem can be quickly solved. This will require a little give on both sides. It is encouraging at least to see that so many of the parties involved are willing to sit down and discuss the matter, which was the proposal made during the two-day hearing here of the Board of Transport Commissioners by the chairman, Rod Kerr. The negotiations can be frustrating for all parties -- they can also be of great importance to the future of the City, especially the downtown King street business area that has deteriorated so quickly because of the existence of the cumbersome tracks. The Board of Transport Commissioners, during its two- day sitting in Oshawa last Spring, appeared to go out of its way to urge the City (which made the application for the removal of the tracks) and the three user-firms to get to- gether. Time could prove our assessment all wrong, but it would appear that the Board could foresee difficulty in allowing a decision in favor of the City under the Canada Railway Act, regardless of the fine presentation made by City Solicitor E. J. McNeely. Several inquiries by this department to ascertain when the Board will hand down its ruling have not been success- ful -- the Board merely says through its spokesman that it will notify the City when its decision is prepared. Federal tribunals of this kind, because usually of a heavy backlog of work, do not move too quickly HAWKETTES ADD COLOR TO GAMES Speaking of Oshawa's baton twirling community, that is growing these days by leaps and bounds: The Hawkettes (composed of girls from baton twirling achools in Whitby, Ajax, Bowmanville, Port Perry, Black- stock, Seagrave, etc., under the direction of Miss Ruth Ann Deboski, Jean Bright and Penny McMullen) are busy re- hearsing on the GM main office parking lot these days. They will provide entertainment at games of the Oshawa Hawk-eye football team and hope to get permission to use Kinsmen Stadium for rehearsals. The girls started rehearsals in May on the parking lot at the Oshawa Shopping Cenire. They are to be commended for training so hard to per- fect their style, but the results have been worthwhile and they will add much color and entertainment to the local junior grid games, LITTLE NOTES FROM HITHER AND YON Rev. W. James Scott, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Scott of 52 Division street, has been assigned to a parish in Co- bourg, Ont., under Rev. Joseph Collins, Father Scott was ordained in Peterborough last June 2. He is a graduate of St. Augustine's Seminary. . . .. Mark Holmes, 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Don Holmes (formerly of Oshawa) con- tinues to show improvement in California where his family moved recently in an effort to help him in his fight against Cystic Fibrosis (which blocks a child's digestion and infects the lungs). There was some good news in the June 30 issue of The Oshawa Times for victims of the disease -- the death rate of a group of children being given intensive treatment at Cleveland has been reduced to one-tenth the normal, a U.S. doctor told the Canadian Pediatric Society in London, Ont., recently. CITY FIELD ENGINEER HEADS OTC R. F. Richardson, a field engineer with the City since 1949, was commended in City Council Tuesday for his recent appointment to a high position -- the presidency of the On- tario Traffic Conference (which has a membership of 350). The OTC's objective is to improve traffic control and safety in Ontario municipalities. Alfred Metcalfe, 470 King street east, will retire this month after 35 years' service with General Motors of Canada here.. He is supervisor of the Suggestions Department and. a director of the National Association of Suggestions Systems and of the Toronto chap- ter of the Canadian Association. Mr. Metcalfe was tendered a special banquet this week by fellow-workers at the Hotel Genosha with the GM Pipe Band (with which he worked as a director) in attendance. He will reside in Vancouver, B.C. AROUND THE HUSTINGS OF ONTARIO RIDING Ever hear of the Hampton Conference? That's a big name these days in Progressive Conservative circles in Ontario riding. Its the name of a top-level, PC political pow-wow scheduled for sometime around the middle of this month at Hampton. The 'exact date will be set when William "Bill'" Newman, the PC's organizer in the riding, returns from a European trip. The exact nature of the meeting is a hush-hush secret but only the top party names in the riding will attend -- Party Strategy will be in high on the agenda for discussion and the best guess is that the PC's will make even greater efforts this time to increase their vote in Oshawa City which shrunk June 18 from 13,048 (the 1958 total) to 11,458 as compared with 8,495 for Miss Aileen Hall, NDP, and 7,559 for Norman Cafik, Liberal. Labor Minister Starr's Oshawa lead was a sizeable one, but he is a perfectionist who is never satisfied with anything but the best, insofar as Party effort in campaigns is con- cerned. Both the Liberals and the NDP's previously announced that they would start their campaigns carly this time, a proposed plan of action that was devised likely because of the static state of things today in Ottawa. 'Many Doctors Reply To SOS REGINA (CP) -- The Sas- katchewan government's SOS call for doctors is getting an answer. Doctors from Britain, the United States and other parts of Canada now are helping to pro- vide emergency medical ser- vices for the province, belea- gured by the first doctor's strike in North American his- tory. The Saskatchewan govern- ment says 11 doctors have al- ready arrived as temporary help and expects the number to grow steadily. Biggest source of help is ex- pected to be Britain, where 25,- 000 physicians and 2,400 hos- pitals have been advised by mail of Saskatchewan's need. Provincial health officials said |British doctors will begin to ar- rive in Saskatchewan shortly at the rate of four a day. These 'would include general practi- tioners and specialists who now operate under Britain's state- }run medical plan. 'SIGN CONTRACTS 60 persons are being inter- viewed at the Saskatchewan government's office in London. | These selected are signed to|phychiatry in Montreal. contracts varying from one to} three months under which the} provincial government pays' re- turn air fares and provides remuneration ranging between $900 and $1,800 a month.

"T feel it was my duty as al' : physician to offer my -services for patients in need of medical care," he said Wednesday night in an interview. He said he turned his own pa- tients over to two colleagues. There was "'no idea of. remun- eration or reward" in his apply- ing for the job. Dr. Beck said he will go home as soon as the province's doc- tors resume normal practice. He hoped it would be this week- end. ONT.
