Oshawa Times Photo Teachers See Fine Film A film showing the construc. tion of the Japanese Yahamara was seen by the Registered Music Teachers of Oshawa and District at their February meet- ing held at Adelaide House. Mrs. J. E. Jackson, of Port Perry, presided and announced that the third in a series of four recitals would be held Satur. day, March 16, at the Mc- Laughlin Public Library. At the March meeting the). teachers will be given a talk on the Carl Orff method of teaching. The Carl Orff method which is used at the Royal Con- servatory in Toronto and in On- tario elementary schools en- courages children to make music on their own level, free from mechanical drill and free from adult pressure. Very sim- ple instruments are used such as the xylophone, metallophone, glockenspiel, etc. Mrs. Jean Bocian, an associate of Miss Doreen Hall who brought the method from Germany to Can- ada, will be present with a group of young students. The film of the Japanese piano showed how carefully the wood is selected and what care in the construction is given by the Japanese men and women engaged in this industry.

CELEBRATING BIRTHDAYS Congratulations and best wishes to the following resi- dents of Oshawa and district who are celebrating their birthdays today: Mrs. Leo Keeler, 19 Nas- sau street; Mrs. Elizabeth Daniel, 7 Maple street and Ray Pope, 510 Park road south, Phone 723-3474. BUY MOST BIBLES Miss Hall, who chaired the such a scheme most are the ones who are not covered at present by a voluntary scheme. Although people can budget: for their other expenses, they can- not budget for illness. Also, many insurance plans refuse to accept people whom they con- sider to be poor risks because of age or disease." Miss Hall, stressed that the New Democratic Medicare scheme would not change the relationship existing between a doctor and his patient. Miss Hall, in outlining the proposed Ontario Medicare plan, pointed out that a family of four, with an income of $3,000, would pay 65 cents a week; an income of $5,000, would pay $1 a week, an income of $11,000 a year or more, would pay as much as the PSI Blue Plan to- day. "Doctors" bills, hospital ex- penses, specialists' fees, X-rays, at first," said Miss Hall, "but it is hoped to extend the scheme to cover dental and opti- cal expenses and drugs." Present health insurance schemes do not cover such things as health education, pre- ventive medicine and research. These would be an important part of Medicare, "It is interesting to note," commented Miss Hall, every other country in the west- ern world except the United States and Canada has some form of government health scheme operating successfully."

Pub Night Is Enjoyed A large crowd attended the Oshawa and District Old Coun- try Club Pub Night, held at the Knights of Columbus Hall, Saturday evening. Members from Whitby and Toronto were present. George Day was the master of ceremonies for the evening and the program opened to provided by Donny Boyd, drums; Bob Parkinson, soprano sax; Carl Hiltz, tenor sax and George Norris, piano. Mr. Bob Parkinson also played the banjo and led community singing. Mr. Day introduced Accordiana Four -- David Riley , John Donabie, Eugene Laskiewicz and Glenn Boresky. This group of teenagers are members of Dickinson's Accor- diana Band of Toronto, which were the winners of the Ottawa School of Music Accordion Fes. tival for 1963. The Accordiana Four played "Loveliest Night of the Year," "Remembering You,"' and other numbers, fol- lowed by several lively polkas to which members danced. During the interval a hot supper of Cornish Pasties and SECOND SECTION .»»-PRELIMINARY plans were arinounced today by Dean J. Business Men's Association, Blood Need Very Great The last Blood Donor Clinic in Oshawa last month collected a total of 389 bottles. Although this is a good showing it is necessary that we boost this total higher if the demand for blood and blood derivatives is to be met. Last month's clinic saw an addition of 65 new donors con- tribute to this essential service. This is commendable but at the rate blood is being used it means that the bank balance is not very high. To give you some idea of the urgency of the situation R. H. Stroud, Chairman of the Blood Donor service in Oshawa, re- ports the following: "At the last clinic the central depot was so short of blood that a special truck was sent from the Red Cross especially to col- lect the blood at the end of the afternoon session. This blood was immediately processed and sent to our hospital." This quotation serves: to il- lustrate the fact that the Blood Bank is operating at a danger- ously low level. YOU can help to remedy this situation by enroling. at least two new donors from your friends and aquaintances who have never given before. If you have never had jaundice or if you have not had malaria dur- ing the past year you can help. Competent help at the clinic -- are your safeguard to ensure that you are not going to suffc: any effect on your own healt': Without the help of every citi- zen the service cannot hope to cope with this increased de- mand. Won't you join the list of do- nors now? STEER BY SUN Oshawa Times OSHAWA, ONTARIO, MONDAY, MARCH 4, 1963 for a new pedestrian mall. The plan was devised to re- "that!
