2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Saturdey, August 18, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN OUR RELATIONS WITH NAVY NEVER BETTER Oshawa's good relations with the U.S. Navy soared to an all4ime high this week ("They've never been so good since the War of 1812 when an American ship came over to Oshawa and, dropped a few live cannon balls on our harbor area," sai President Gordon Riehl of the Oshawa C of C. . . Wednesday's eloquent; min-: 1 utely-planned welcome for the 2 U.S. escort ships (the U.S.S. Whitehall and the U.S.S. Amherst) was more than a posh, red - carpet civic welcome for some 200 of our American cousins it also represented a fine '| display of civic unity and A pride. This was an impressive show because it was a com- munity show; but the lion's share jof the credit for the success of the undertaking must naturally go to the hard-working Oshawa C of C , which left no stone unturned to make this affair a suc- cess, There were other groups who assisted (like City Coun- cil, units of the Ontario Reg- iment, the PUC and others too numerous to mention) to make the welcome an unparalleled success for a civic func- tion of this nature and the public responded impressively by turning out in record numbers (more than 15,000 visited the 2 ships). The civic welcome ceremonies at the new 500-foot east Harbor dock was a stirring ritual to warm the cockles of any good citizens's heart; but even the most successful of shows frequently have glaring production defects and this one was no exception. For instance, Alderman Hayward Murdoch was original- ly scheduled to play the leading role in the pier-welcome ceremonies (and arrived at the harbor with that thought in mind), but this plan was abruptly changed with the unex- pected arrival of Mayor Christine Thomas who proceeded to take over. No scenario writer for the late Mack Sennett could dream up a more ludicrous, wacky comedy sequence than that which was enacted Wednesday on the harbor dock in front of the U.S.S. Whitehall and the special stand erected for the dignitaries -- a City garbage truck drove up and park- ed on that spot while a Board of Works (Oshawa) crew proceeded to unload garbage from the ship into the truck. This bold, unexpected drama started to unfold just as the welcoming ceremonies were to commence, while civic digni- taries and visiting Naval brass looked on dumbfounded (and apparently helpless because nobody appeared to try to. talk them out of it). Even Sam Jackson failed to order them away. The welcome ceremonies were delayed for more than 20 minutes while crates of garbage were hauled from the ship (Times photographer Bruce Jones said he kept an eagle eye on the gangplank in case Jackie Gleason or somebody like that ran off). Rarely has there been a finer display of community solidarity as was displayed Wednesday at this important event. The visitors were tremendously impressed, from the officers down to the lowest ranks. They will be good-will ambassadors for Oshawa from here in, thanks to the Oshawa C of C and the many. groups that assisted them. It just shows what can be accomplished when all hands pull together and work hard. SAM JACKSON CITY DOCTOR VISITS AILING FATHER Dr. W. M.

He was unable to participate in the June Federal election campaign with his usual vigor and was confined to his home for much of the campaign with an ailment described as "intestinal cold'. He did not attend the Atlantic premiers' conference in Newfoundland or the recent Conference of Canadian premiers last week in Victoria.

That is the 55th. annual Oshawa and District Fall Fair (sometimes known as the South Ontario Agriculture Society's Fall Fair) which opens its doors at 5 p.m. next Monday -- the Fair will continue on through Tuesday and Wednesday, at Alexandra Park. There was a time not too long ago when the Fair fell on lean days financially, thanks to dwindling crowds and a monotonous program that left too many people bored -- this situation has changed in the past two years and a small sur- plus was reported from last year's show. Mr. Snowden reports that this year's show will have everything from horse races to dairy exhibits to a midway show and he urges one and al! to turn out for the opening ceremony Monday night. | | | | | ¥, ¥. te -f HT TEES i RM REEL ae ME MAINLY SUNNY WEATHER WEATHER FORECAST | Warm Weather Coming Sunda "Locally owned and operated'?
