The event, which was attend- ed by a large and distinguished group of Masons not oniy from Oshawa and Ontario District but also from Toronto and sur- rounding areas, was arranged by Mr. Wilson's mother lodge -- Lebanon Lodge, No. 139, AF and AM. William L. Pierson chaired the committee which arranged the dinner. Dr. S. George Werry, master of Lebanon Lodge, was master of ceremonies. The guest of honor, who be- came a member of the lodge in 1923 and later served as master of the lodge, was the first mem- ber of the craft from Ontario District to be elected to grand lodge office.

Parliament, district supervisor, Royal Arch Masons. Mr. Wilson was characterized by Mr. Martyn as the type of officer wanted in Grand Lodge. He felt his character, drive and temperament would result in his making a big contribut-on to its work and advancement. Mr. Langley, the guest of honor, commented that his contribution to masonry Asks Support For Civic Auditorium The support of the members | in the fund raising campaign for the Oshawa Civic Auditorium, | which opens in January, was urged by Terence V. Kelly in an address at the Monday meet- ing of the Rotary Club of| Oshawa. . He told the club that support for the project was being evi- denced in all quarters. He stressed that such a building is badly needed in Oshawa and voiced the opinion that Oshawa had missed having a world championship hockey team through the lack of an arena. The speaker recalled the for- mation of the arena committee by Mayor Lyman Gifford in 1956 and traced the steps which had been taken up to the acquisition this year of a 20- acre parcel of land on Thorn- ton's road south. SWIMMING POOL The executive committee had decided to erect an arena with a quick - change ice surface, an outside rink and an indoor -swimming pool. The rink would have a seating capacity of be- tween 2,500 and 3,500 and stand- ing room for an additicnal 1,000 spectators. The committee had stipulated the cost of the pro- ject must not exceed $1,000,000. Mr. Kelly pointed to the fact that Oshawa's population had increased 50 per cent in the last 12 years; that Oshawa is ninth in population among Ontario cities and that Oshawa workers in district arenas outside Osh- awa. Four hundred children were also turned away from the |Children's Arena because they. jcould not be accommodated. |NEED AUDITORIUM | Not only did Oshawa need an jauditorium for those who wish- jed to play. and watch hockey jgames, but the auditorium }would also. provide accommo- jdation for conventions, con- certs and industrial exhibitions. The present children's arena did not lend itself to spectator sports therefore another small arena was not the answer t the need. Z The arena would provide facil- ities for figure skating. It would also, through its pool, answer the demands being made for in- struction during the summer and winter months, as well as limit- ed time for adults. Youths Admit Theft of Auto _ Four Toronto youths appeared in Oshawa Magistrate's Court Monday on two charges of car theft. The quartet had been remanded in custody since Sept. 17 and were remanded further without bail to: Oct.-1 by Magis- trate F. S. Ebbs.

HAPPY ASSOCIATION Mr. Thomson spoke of his happy association with Mr. Wil- son during the past 20 years. He told of his qualities of sincerity and devotion to the welfare and advancement of his community. He was the type of man who would push a cause without any idea of gaining anything for himself, Mr. Thomson added.

Without his association with the lodge he would have suffered a great loss in attaining a full life. Church Groups Give Program "Let's All Be Active" was the theme of a short, inspiring talk given byt he Rev. J. VanHar- melen last Saturday evening at an informal gathering of the He- bron Christian Reformed Church. At the beginning of the fall and winter season, pastor and congregation were invited to the church auditorium at 7.30 p.m. to enjoy a varied program given by the various societies. The program, consisting of choir singing, recitations, musi- cal numbers, etc. was well pre- sented and thoroughly enjoyed by the more than 250 people in/' attendance. Among the highlights of the evening, was a beautiful rendi- tion of The Lord's Prayer, sung by the choir, under direction of Stan Redfearn. Although the congregation can now look back on a successful evening, it is much more impor- tant to look forward to the com- ing season with its opportunities for advancement in well attend- ed societies, a thriving Sunday School and an all-out effort of witness. } The members of Hebron Chris- tian Reformed Church have not only an opportunity, but a task collectively and individually to be active in God's Kingdom.

Board meetings are notorious among trustees and other offi- cials for their occasional lengthi- ness. The board accepted reports of thé standing committees for sec- ondary and public school: pur- poses, thereby endorsing the decision of these committees made at their meeting Sept. 17. Among new business was a letter from the language com- mittee of the Community Citi- zenship Council which recom- mended that the night classes in basic English sponsored by the board be made free. At the present the fee for these classes as well as others is $10, The committee of the CCC pointed out that a large num- ber of newcomers to Canada in Oshawa have little English and) that only a small percentage takes classes. They also felt the people who needed instruction generally were in the lower in- come bracket. Finally, it was suggested, the board is re- imbursed by the government for 90 per cent of the cost of these night classes. It was decided to refer the matter to the advisory and voca- tional committee for further study. The board granted a request from the Civic Auditorium ex- ecutive committee for co-opera- SECOND SECTION PAGE NINE Two delegates from Osh- awa, pose with Premier John Robarts at the Ontario Pro- OSHAWA, ONTARIO, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1962 ' gressive Conservative Party's | central district workshop and annual meeting at Bradford, over the weekend.

E Awareness Of God Needed Editor's Note: Following is the second in a series of articles written by Oshawa residents in connection with the observance from Sept. 23 to Sept. 30 of Church and School Week in Oshawa. By H. L. HAISELL Principal Queen Elizabeth School The week of Sept. 23, to 30 has been designated as Church time that.we,.who are engaged in education, join hands with the ministers of the various faiths within the city.We try to co-operate with them in an ef- fort to bring every child into Sunday School or church on Sun- day, Sept. 30. In an age of science and ad- vancing materialism, we must fight to preserve the Christian heritage which has been handed to us by those martyrs who gave their lives in the advance of our faith. Only through the co-opera- tion of church, school and home can this faith be kept alive. In today's complex world, we |must help our children to re- | spond in love to both God and man. Jesus formed his habits and attitudes as a part of the childhood. Within his family he learned about God and responded to Him. Similarly, we hope to lead our children into a growing awareness of God so that they may live and work together as Christians. =a AWARD WINNER Qrdinary Seaman. Barry Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. H.

Miss Wallace announced to The Times that close to 25 en- thusiastic children turned up at the Saturday Morning Book Club. The club is designed to teach children to read new books and write reviews. _ Last year, the children prac- tised a play for several months and performed it in the library auditorium. The play was re- ported a great success and this year's club members are anxious to undertake a similar project. Miss Wallace said that A.

S. Ebbs Monday found him guilty of drunk driv. ing. In addition, Fitzgerald's car was impounded for three months and his licence was suspended for six months. Constable B. E. Frauts told the court that on Sept. 16 he observed the Fitzgerald car swerving from one side of Olive avenue to the other as it headed east. The officer said when he stopped the car the accused man almost fell out the door. "He fell asleep in the cruiser on the way to the station," testi- fied Constable Frauts.- 'In my opinion he was intoxicated." Sergeant H. J. King agreed Fitzgerald was intoxicated on the night in question. "'He could barely speak and stood as if in a stupor," he said. % Defence Counsel" Terrence V. Kelly pointed out to the court that Fitzgerald was having me- chanical trouble with his car such that the vehicle could only be manipulated with difficulty. Mr. Kelly said that this combin- éd with the fact that Fitzgerald's wife was expecing their fourth child may have contributed to the way the accused was driv- ing. 4s In passing sentence, Magis- trate Ebbs said he could. not werlook the experience of two dolice officers who testified ing children gathered for the prize giving and awards. Fitzgerald was intoxicated. } She Oshawa Gimes
