2. THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, April 11, 1963 See ney ye GOO By JACK GEARIN D EVENING ELECTORAL MACHINERY FUNCTIONS WELL Harry W, Jermyn was about the happiest man in Ontario riding when the final vote was tallied Monday night As District Returning Officer, it was his duty to see that the electoral machinery functioned with precision in the Fed- eral election. Not only did the popular vote set an all-time high mark for this or any other age -- 82.5 percent -- the returns from all 294 polls were in by 9:30 p.m., also a record achievement. ' Mr, Jermyn is in the midst of a mammoth clean-up job dismantling the so-called electoral machinery -- one of his big chores next Tuesday will be. to conduct the official vote count, a sort of check-off system to compare his totals with those of the DRO's. Last June the discrepancy amounted to only three votes in the entire riding. He and his staff of more than 600 voters are to be com- mended for a job well done -- we all know the anguish and frustration that results when the electoral machinery breaks down. KIWANIS RADIO AUCTION NEXT WEDNESDAY * President Murray Sparkes of the Oshawa Kiwanis Club is,extra-busy these days calling attention to an important up- coming event -- the 11th. Annual Radio Auction of the com- bined Kiwanis Clubs of Oshawa and Westmount scheduled for next Wednesday, April 17, This is a most worthwhile entertainment attraction be- cause the Kiwanians depend to a large extent on the proceeds to finance their numerous community proj- ects such as Camp Kedron for Underprivileged children in the Oshawa area (opera- tion and improvement costs total approximately $7,000 annually), the City bantam softball league and a minor hockey team. : Kiwanians also supply vo- cational guidance assistance at the local collegiates, fin- ancial assistance for district 4-H Farmers Clubs. This is only a small indi- cation of the many worth- while programs sponsored by these clubs -- Westmount operates the Simcoe Hall Fish and Game Club for boys and girls -- but it should be ample to illustrate that one and all should give support next Wednesday to the Kiwanis Radio Auction. Auctioned goods are donated by local merchants and their suppliers and have a retail value of approximately $8,000. The Oshawa Kiwanis Club was founded in 1923 and the Westmount Club in 1958. The auction room will be located once again in the Hotel Genosha. THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DON JACKSON The April 7 edition of the Sunday Minneapolis Tribune in a news story ('Lean Years Pay Off for Follies' Star') has this to say, in part, about Oshawa's Don Jackson: ""There's a big difference between being an amateur con- testant and a professional. MURRAY SPARKES "No one knows better than Donald Jackson of Osh- * awa, Ont., headliner in the Ice Follies on their annual visit to the Minneapolis Arena. "Last Tuesday, Don cele- brated his 23rd. birthday. Only a year ago he was the toast of the figure skating world as the champion of the amateur universe. "From the time Jackson was 9 until he became World's Champion in 1962 he lived on skates. It wasn't easy. "He says: "My father and mother wanted me to be the best in the world, They used every dollar they earned above bare living expenses to further my career. I know they skimped and scraped to help me.

Morrell, director of the food and drug directorate, as a "definite step forward in drug control," were made pub- lic in a special edition of the Canada Gazette. Under the new regulation, the federal drug directorate has power to force manufacturers to meet manufacturing standards, m) |hire qualified personnel, test drugs, provide for quality con- trols and keep records, One new regulation compels maufacturers and distributors to set up a system of control to permit a complete and rapid recall of any lot or batch of 130 aboard, had been conduct- ing deep diving tests about 220 miles east of Boston, Nfld. Replaces Corner Brook City Council Corner Brook city council was dismissed Wednesday by the Newfoundland government and is to be replaced by a three- man commission which will at- tempt to put the city's affairs back in order, Announcement of the action was made in the Newfoundland legislature by Municipal Affairs Minister Beato nJ. Abbott. His statement also announced the appointment of Mayor Allison Bugden of Corner Brook as chairman of he commission. The council has been divided for more than a year, primar- ily over council's power to in- terfere in civie hiring and fir- ing. The council also had trouble balancing its budget this spring and has defied the municipal af- fairs department in connection with the use of land in the Cor- ner Brook area. Court Acquits Reeve Trudell WINDSOR, Ont, (CP) -- A charge of assault laid against suburban Sandwich East Town- ship Reeve Carl Trudell was dismissed Wednesday, and a charge of assault laid by his 16- year - old daughter was dis- missed when no evidence was | submitted.

They left Port Dover about 5 a.m. to sail the 70-mile course around the Long Point Peninsula to Port Bruce, "Most of the disagreement was on the course we were tak- ing," explained Jennings, a high school student, "We were stay- ing close inland, running into too much ice, We wanted to go far' out and the captain SIMCOE, Ont. (CP)--A dis-| changed their agreement with their skipper caused two young crew mem- bers of a Lake Erie fishing boat to walk ashore on the ice-- swimming a 30 foot gap through icy waters in the pro- cess--and then later to trek 20 miles to shelter. Provincial police repored the incident Wednesday. It occurred off desolate Long Point Penin- sula, QPP Constable Ward Ed. wards found Glen Jennings, 18, and Lyle Niblock, 22, in the Long Point Peninsula Provin- cial Park--cold and tired but otherwise unaffected by their ordeal. Norfolk County provincial po- lice had been searching for the two since Jennings' father in. formed police that he had not heard from his son since Mon. day.

(CP)--A 12-year-old boy was in White. horse General Hospital Wednes- day after spending five days lost in heavy bush near Upper Liard in the Yukon, close to the British Columbia border. Andy Lutz of Upper Liard was treated for frostbite to two toes but he says, "I wasn't scared. I've been hunting since I was a@ little kid." The boy, accompanied by his two dogs, was hunting rabbits with a .22-calibre rifle when he became lost. For two days he wandered in |house at the end of the penin- | sula. At least we thought we were ashore, but behind a big ice bank there was open wa- ter,"' Jennings and Niblock had no intention of going back, so they swam across the freezing wa- ter, walked onto the wind-swept point, took a deep breath and started trudging toward civiliz- ation, "We came to a bird observa- tory in the private bird sanc- tuary," said Jennings. 'There was nobody around. It started to snow. We were wet and cold and had to find shelter. About 6 p.m, we came to a two-room cottage--we'd walked a long way at a pretty fast pace-- where we found a couple of sweaters and boots.

However, Roger Larose, pres- ident of the Canadian Pharma- ceutical Manufacturers Associa. tion, regretted that drug manu- facturers are not being forced to register with the federal gov. ernment. "We are sorry that there is no provision in the new regulations that will force pharmaceutical manufacturers to make them- selves known to the food and drug directorate," he said, "We had strongly recommended compulsory registration of all pharmaceutical manufactur- ers." Mr. Larose said, however, New Controls Set Out In Food And Drug Act 'we believe these new regula. tions will be a useful tool at the disposal of the food and drug directorate and that it is a step in the direction of making drugs still safer for Canadians," Dr. Morrell said the new reg- ulations put "teeth" into the law governing the manufacture and distribution of drugs. "Under the reguidtions we will be able to take court ac+ tion against anyone not com. plying with law,"" he said. Dr. Morrell Said until now the directorate could launch prose- cutions only after a laborious check of drug samples to deter- mine defects. However, he said the directorate now will be able to go into the drug plants to determine whether manufactur. ers are complying with the law, MONTREAL (CP)--The St. Lawrence Seaway is expected to be open for business as scheduled Monday, Seaway officials set the open- ing date with their fingers crossed following a tough, cold winter, but officials said today ice conditions should be suf- ficiently under control to permit the start of another shipping season, Normal maintenance work on the seaway's locks is progress- ing on schedule, officials said, and so far no major repairs} have been needed. | Last year the seaway opening was delayed for a week after a crack was discovered across the bottom of the Eisenhower Lock at Massena, N.Y. Crews have been using steam pipes and bubbling air through pipes to free lock machinery, An ice-breaker also has been sent into the system to break up thick concentrations of floes.

Adm. E, R, Mainguy, presl- dent and general-manager of the Great es Waterways De- velopment Association, says gloomy forecasts about the sea- way have proved wrong. "In actual fact the traffic has increased steadily and in 1062 bed 28 per cent higher than in 1959." SEE OVERSEAS 'RISE One expected increase is in the number of overseas vessels travelling to inland ports. Cunard Line has scheduled six vessels for trips between Great Lakes ports and London and Liverpool. The Nardo, Lo- bivia, Tautra and Sunbear will sail from London and the Jo- hanna and Leabeth from Liver- ll. The vessels are described as igger, faster and more effi- cient than Cunard ships used previously. Donalison Line has scheduled two ships--the Colina and San- tona--to maintain a regular three - week service between to expect the trend to change," said one official, "There are some factors that could affect the picture.
