He said all] negotiations to go ahead with] the centre have been com- pleted. The new centre is going to accommodate between 2500 and 3000 people with standing room up to a capacity of 5000.

This award, given only. with the ap- proval of the boy's minister, re- quired that he be active in church work and have a good knowledge of the Bible. 15,000 USED CAMP The district council was for- tunate in having Camp Samac and the Adventure Base in Hali- burton for training work, Mr. Lovell continued. More than 15,- 000 boys had used Camp Samac while more than 600 had camp- ed at the Adventure Base. The facilities. of both camps were extended this year to include the scout groups in Bowman- ville, Whitby, Port Perry and Beaverton. The training courses had also been made available to these groups. It was noted that Wolf Cubs had earned 2,805 badges during the year compared with 1,531 in 1961, Scouts had earned 2,056 badges compared with 1,259 in the previous year. It was reported 57,672 had used the pool at Camp Samac. One thousand one hundred and sixty-seven people registered for swimming lessons and 723 re- ceived awards, MANY IMPROVEMENTS Under the direction of the property committee a new vac- uum pump was installed at the swimming pool, the electric sys- tem had been renovated, new docks built at the water front, a new tractor purchased, the lake dredged, new heater coils} installed on the water pipes, new steps built at the council hall and Cubland, renovation of old and additional new signs, staff cabins and Rover dens in- sulated, a new amphitheatre at the camporee area, the enlarge- ment of the church parade area and a new road was built at the Adventure Base.

He felt scouting has a role to play in broadening youth's horizons so he remains in the movement after his Cub days. He felt the district council must. assume the responsibility for their lead- ership. FINANCIAL REPORT The treasurer, Gordon B. Miles, stated revenue during the year had amounted to $50,052.68 while expenditures totalled $48,- 459.97. He voiced appreciation to Col. R. S. McLaughlin without whose aid the council would: not have been able to undertake many of its capital expendi- tures, Greetings from the provincial council were expressed by Reg. Terrett, of London, Ont., who joined the Oshawa association in 1924. He said that at that time there were the 4th Oshawa Troop in Oshawa and the ist Oshawa Troop at Thornton's Corners. Seventeen years later there were 700 boys in the move- ment here. He felt Oshawa had the best balance between Cubs and Scouts of any community in Ontario. Compard with 20,- 000 scouts in Ontario in 1924 there were now 137,000. LONG SERVICE AWARD One of the highlights of the meeting was the presentation of the long service award by Dis- trict Commissioner E. S- Alker to Victor Brass of the 23rd Osh- awa Troop in recognition of his} 10 years as a Cub leader. Past President Dr. I. J. Met-| calfe also presented awards to District Commissioner Alker, who retired after three years' service and to the retiring presi- years as council commissioner. |regular job. evs Se F.0.

French Crew Sate As Vessel Sinks HALIFAX (OP) -- RCAF search and rescue headquarters reported the French fishing ves- sel Gallantry sank today about 250 miles south of Newfoundland and her 15-man crew was safe aboard another fishing vessel. A spokesman here said the Gallantry radioed shortly after midnight she was sinking and asked for assistance. There were no details of what caused the sinking. The Gallantry, a 110-foot ves- sel, is out of the French islands of St. Pierre-Muquelon south of Newfoundland. The vessel Blue Spray, 4 miles from the Gallantry at the time of the distress: signal, took the Gallantry's crew aboard and advised search and rescue the J. Metcalfe. ' Cuts Honeymoon To Attend Court BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- An Oshawa youth, who told the magistrate he was married last Saturday, had to cut his honey- moon short, because he had to appear in court here Tuesday for sentence on a charge of attempting to steal gasoline. William Arthur Porter, 79 Stone street, was remanded out of custody to Jan. 15. After hearing about Porter's recent marriage, Magistrate R. B, Baxter asked, 'don't you think you were a little optim- istic?" "Could I have a word with you in private about it?" said Porter. "No," said the magistrate, "I think I know what that word would be." Porter was convicted of at- tempting to steal gasoline, the property of Douglas Mackie, RR 2, -Nestleton, Sept. 16. He told the court he had sold his car. CHILDREN READY FOR: HALLOWE'EN Close to 4,000. UNICEF cartons have been distri- buted to 20 public schools and six separate schools, reports Mrs. D. K.

Shaw, who, at that time, called the action "undemocratic". The board Monday accepted the report of the property com- mittee and thereby endorsed the decision to retire the men. Mrs. Shaw vited against it. 4 HANDICAPPED BY HEALTH In a letter to the committee at the board's combined com- mittee meeting Oct. 22 Mr. Lun- ney said the men in question were handicapped in the per- formance of their duties because of age and health. Trustee Mrs. Shaw called Mr. Lunney's letter "two-faced as a town clock', She claimed at least one of the men was quite capable of doing his work. "There is a lot more here we are not reading,"' she' intimated. Mr. Lunney reported thal 15 supervision are, in his view, partially disabled because of their ill health and because they are of high age. He felt these men should retire. They cost the board $15,000 annually; he pointed out. : Accotding to their contract with the board rétirement age of employees is 65, but the board may retain employees until they are 70. Mr. Lunney indicated one of + the men was over 80. He won- dered how long the board would reiain employees. "I am sympathetic to these men, but I want the board to know how we operate," he ex- plained the letter to the trustees. Contained in the letter was Mr. Lunney's suggestion that led to adoption by the board Monday of the policy to have those past the retirement age submit to a medical examina- 'tion, by a doctor of the board's choice, and at the board's dis- cretion. MRS. SHAW OPPOSED When the idea was forwarded at the meeting last week, Mrs. Shaw was strongly opposed, ob- jectine that "a man can't even go to his own doctor'. She felt: high age should have -nothing te do with it. "Old age comes to us all,'"' she said, She said she found Mr, Lun- ney's letter "'disgusting". Trustee John M.-Greer then pointed. out that if the board has no confidence in Mr. Lun- ney it should get rid of him. But apparently the board does have confidence in Mr. Lunney, he said, and Mr. Lunney should be enabled to do as he sees fit. Mr. Lunney, Trustee Greer felt, is more qualified than any member of the board to judge if a man is able to do his work. "This costs the board $15,000," Trustee Greer said, "'and as trustees we are delinquent in not saving the tax payer this money." He then moved the men be given two months notice. He also recommended the board Board Of Education Retires Two Workers clarify its position' regardinf re- tirement, whidh was done Mon- day. PENSION POLICY J, Ross Backus, business ad- ministrator, pointed out that when the new pension plan came into effect several years ago the provision was made for employees | older than 55 that they retire either after 10 years of service or in June following their 70th birthday. Trustee Mrs. Shaw voiced concern that even this provision would leave some of the men with only a small pension, when they retired. This applies to seven men only, she said. Trustee S. G. Saywell said he felt the way in which the two employees were to be dismissed was "a cold. way"' after the men had given the board so many years of service. He wondered if the men could not be induced to resign. Trustee E, A. Bassett, prop- erty committee chairman, point- ed out the men would lose their unemployment insurance bene- fits if they resign on their own accord. Trustee Saywell said he was not opposed to the motion, but suggested the men be told in a diplomatic way, Mr, Greer's motion was pass- ed with Trustees Greer, Bas- sett, R. H. Stroud and L. G. Glover voting in favor, and Mrs, Shaw voting against. Five trus- tees abstained. "Are we going to let half of the board sit here and not vote," Mrs. Shaw said, irritated by the five abstentions. "We are now in a@ position where we can see our way ahead," declared Tererice V. Kelly, well-known local barris- ter and vice-chairman of the Oshawa Civic Auditorium Com- mittee, guest speaker at the Tuesday luncheon meeting of the Oshawa Kiwanis Club. The entire membership of the committee were invited guests of the Kiwanis Club, and they were introduced to the Kiwan- ians by Oshawa Civic Auditor- ium Committee chairman E. R. 8. "Dick in. The committee, most of whom were present, includes T. V. Kelly, vice-chairman; Harold Tripp, secretary - treasurer; Chas. C. McGibbon, chairman of site and legal committees; Harry Gay, building commit- tee chairman; Mrs. Harold B. Armstrong and Chris Mason, co-chairmen of public relations committee; Her Worship, Mayor Thomas, aldermen Walter Branch . and . "'Ab" Walker; Stewart R. Alger, Edward Bino, Wendell Brewster, Lyman Gif- ford, Sid Hopkins, Bill Kurelo, Murray McLeod, Dr. O. G. '|Mills, Malcolm Smith, Robt. Wilson and Ray Trew. In a special introduction of the day's speaker, Committee Chairman "Dick" McLaughlin stated that vice - chairman "Terry" Kelly had. betn a key worker and driving force, since joining the committee at the be- ginning of this year. Among his duties had been the arduous task of heading up a fact-finding committee, to re-establish the sports priorities in this city and the sizes, designs and facilities supplied by other civic centres in communities of comparable population to Oshawa. Following successful completion of this task, T. V. Kelly joined the building committee and now is heading up as chairman, the all- important financial. campaign! for the proposed new Oshawa Civic Auditiroium. COMMENDS INTEREST Her Worship, Mayor Chris- tine Thomas, in a brief speech, commended the. officers and members of the Oshawa Kiwan- is Club for their civic-minded attitude and interest in the ap- proaching campaign to secure a Civic Auditorium for Oshawa, as evidenced in the holding of this special meeting, to hear of progress made and plans al- ready in operation. Her Worship said that in ad- dition to this city's need for greater ice-hockey facilities and an indoor swimming pool, there was also the requirement of an grant of 20 acres of land, lo- cated on the east side of Thorn- ton's road south. The speaker explained that this site, pro- viding ample room and excellent scenic possibilities, is located at a spot which would be just north of Gibb street, if that street extended west as far as the Thornton's road. FACILITIES AND SIZE Reviewing the findings and work accomplished by the prop- erty committee. Mr. Kelly dis- closed some of the statistics con- cerning the proposed building. The main building will con- sist of a handsomely designed auditorium, running north-and- south, with a large stage at the north end. There will be no seats at either end. The auditorium is planned to seat approximate- ly 3,400 with 1,700 seats on each side. It will have a regulation ice surface in the centre, with facilities for quick removal and or installation of the ice. This building will be heated and the design calls for entrances that will permit two-level seating. The indoor swimming pool building will be located at the south, with a huge connecting foyer. One side of this building will be entirely glass. The swim- ming pool is to be 75 feet long and wide enough to accommo- date six lanes (as used in swim- ming races). The speaker pointed out that when the former Oshawa Arena was built, in the early 30's, the city's population was just over the 28,000 mark but since that time, it is now 62,000 in 1962. The Oshawa Arena seated ap- proximately 3,700. COMPARISONS Mr. Kelly pointed out that: in the latest statistics, Oshawa is now eighth in population in On- tario with such cities as Ot- tawa, Windsor, London, Ki chener, Hamilton, Toronto, Kingston, St. Catharines, all having necessary facilities for ice hockey and'other events, for which an auditorium is re- quired. He also pointed out that there are four hockey arenas in close proximity to Oshawa, namely Bowmanville, Brooklin, Port Perry and Whitby, all en- joying a fair measure of suc- cess in their 1 opera- tions and being used on many occasions, by Oshawa teams and groups, seeking ice facili- ties. } He added that "'a sad feature of the Oshawa Childrens Arena is that it is not able to fulfill the needs of our youth. He quot- ed that 55 boys' minor teams' Civic Auditorium Plan Described To Kiwanis use the Children's Arena, He pointed out that each team can accommodate about 15 boys, with another 10 from each team being "cut" when final selec. tion is made. "These boys still want to play hockey, but they have no place to go," he said. Mr. Kelly also stated that the Children's .Arena, is not only restricted for use to boys under 18-years-of-age but because of time available, can neither ac- commodate boys under 10 years of age. Commenting on the frequent query as to the number of seats, in spite of Oshawa being a much larger community now, Mr. Kelly stated that a very thorough survey and question- naire from other centres, had produced a unanimous opinion that 3,400 would be sufficient for all general requirements, It was pointed out that cities having much larger buildings, had rare- ly been taxed to capacity. He voiced the opinion that due :to the counter attractions of tele- vision and the availability of en- tertainment via medium, the need for large seating ac- commodation is not as great. He added that it was the opinion of the committee' that the cost of installing more than 3,400 seats was prohibitive, in view of the number of times such extra ac- commodation would be used. The proposed Oshawa Civie Auditorium will cost an esti- mated $1,400,000. In addition to the buildings, the property al- lows for future expansion, with a football field and cinder track, etc., while included in the current project is a parking area, to accommodate 500 cars. The building will be turned over to the city, to be run by a Commission. Pointing out that there is of course evidence that such a building cannot always operate at a profit, Mr. Kelly t-| also voiced his opinion that an year or several years, of only a few thousand dollars, should certainly not be considered a loss. "I do not think we con- sider the large annual expendi- ture of our city for the admini- stration of our many parks, as a loss. We look upon this as an investment in recreation and the operation of our auditorium will be just that, an investment in recreation," he In conclusion, "Terry" Kelly briefly outlined what is hoped for by the committee, in their financial campaign, to be launched within a few months and "he also stressed that not only was it hoped for and ex. pected but that it would be ne- cessary to assure' success. _ auditorium large gh to hold such important events. as the General Motors 25-Year din- ners, conventions, trade fairs, public meetings, etc. REVIEWS FIRST STEPS "Terry" Kelly, in commenc- ing his informative and factual address, first extended praise to all members of the Civic Audi- torium Committee, for their hard work and many hours de- voted to meetings. The speaker recalled that in March, 1958, a public meeting was held, at which a resolution was passed to investigate the possibilities of securing such a building for Oshawa, an execu- tive committee was named and later a site committee, There was a delay at this time since a vigorous Oshawa Hospital campaign was in pro- gress, Later consideration was given to a large community sports centre, to embrace. nu- merous facilities such as arena, swimming pool, sport playing fields, etc., to be located im- mediately south of the Oshawa Shopping Centre. The speaker revealed that. not until early this year was it definitely deter- mined that the cost of the property for this project, as asked by the owners. made this site prohibitive. -The committee then approach- ed the city council and receiv- ed a generous reception, in the .
