Michael Starr, PC candi- date in Ontario Riding, told a large gathering of his support- ers here Sunday that he would spend more time in his riding than during the general election last June. He said he would only leave the tiding to speak at Progres- sive Conservative meetings in the province, However, he said, the majority of nominating meetings had already been held. During the meeting Prime Minister John Diefenbaker. tele- phoned Mr. Starr extending good wishes to workers in the riding and asking their continu- ed support. Mr. Starr outlined the PC Party platform and told of the government's achievements dur- ing its tenure of office. He said, in his view, the govern- ment's first responsibility is to all the people. This, he said, had been the basis of govern. rent policy since the party was elected to power.

Scouts To Do Good Turn On March 30 the Cubs and Scouts of Oshawa will perform 'a good turn for the 275 handi- capped persons employed by the Society for Crippled Civilians. Bernard Muzeen, vice-chair. man of the Oshawa District Scouters' Club has been select- ed by the Scouts as chairman. The object of Good Turn Day is to collect discarded clothing which will be repaired and cleaned by the handicapped employees of the Crippled Civil- ians in 'Toronto. The materials will then be sold through the non-profit stores of the Society, and the revenue collected will pay the wages of the handicapp. ed persons who otherwise would not be employed. "A simple plan for the col- lection of used clothing, should follow this pattern: "The Cubs will deliver bags to every householder in Oshawa, Satur- day March 23 one week before the drive. Then the Boy Scouts will call back on Saturday mor- ning the following week to col- lect them." The material collected by the Scouts is taken to a central col- lection point for shipping to the S.U.C.'s rehabilitation centre in Toronto. There it helps to give on-the-job training and employ- ment to the handicapped men and women who earn a living and learn a trade by recondi- tioning articles that other peo- ple no longer need. The materials of greatest help in the Good Turn project are repairable clothing, shoes and household linens. The Scouts re- quest that householders check closets, trunks. and attics for all those things that are '"'not good enough to use but too good to throw away", and lay them aside to go in Good Turn bags. Good Turn day is an official project of the Oshawa District Scouter's Club. Doctors To Cut Bullet From Spine LONDON, Ont.
