Daigh has tried for Indiana- polis several times, but failed to qualify, he told newsmen. He is a mechanic as well as driver and is well versed in ear design. Immediately he had finished! his round of honor Daigh's car| was surroiinded by track po- Heement, and officials keeping the crowd at a distance, while the winner received the "'Play- er's 200" Cup from the hands of J. M. Keith, president of the Imperial Tobacco Company of Canada Limited. Daigh will go home with $3,300 in prize money, only $200 short of the winner's possible maximum. Fourth over-all stood Roger Penske, the driver who placed second at the 'Player's 200" last year. His Zerex Special's time was 2:10:46.7 and he was the last to complete all 80 laps. Fifth and 'sixth were Porsche drivers Ludwig Heimrath, of Toronto, 2:11:51.2, and Bob Hol- bert, of Warrington, Pa., 2:11:53.5. Heimrath, as the first Cana- dian to finish greatly enhanced his chances to win the Player's Challenge Trophy, which will be awarded at the close of the current season and will net the \14th, and Ross De St, Croix, Lola Climax, 15th. The contest for the first place was mainly between Lotus 19 drivers Daigh and Ruby throughout the entire race until Ruby's breakdown. Daigh fin- ished six seconds ahead of Jima Hall, in the first heat, while Ruby and Daigh, finish- ing less than three seconds apart in the first heat, were 45 seconds ahead of Grant's Buick- powered Lotus 19. | Grant ceased to be a serious jcontender in the second heat lwhen he had to make a pit stop for a loose seat'during an unlucky 13th lap. The fastest lap of the race was clocked by Lloyd Ruby, 1:34.0, during the fourth and fifth lap of the second heat. Ruby. also dorve the fastest lap 1:34.8, in the fourth lap. For many ruby's drop-out jcame as a grave disappoint- jment, for his performance gave jall the signs of a winner, | Asked if he thought he could have passed Ruby had he stay- Jed in, Daigh told reporters, i*That's hard to say". | He had been on Ruby's tail |since the fifth lap. "I could see smoke coming} out of Ruby's car and then I did not know whether he was going to stay in," Daigh re- jcalled. | Penske, who arrived at the jtrack too late to place in the jtime trials, had to start behind ithe field, but had worked his | controversial Zerex Special into fifth position by the end of the llth lap of the first heat. Although off for a fast: start during the second heat Penske jcame through in fifth position s 200 Sings First Mass At St. Gregory's An Oshawa priest who was ordained in Toronto, June 1, re- turned home to say his first mass. Rev, David Currie, son of Mr. and Mrs, Russell Currie, 383 Mary street, celebrated Solemn High Mass at St. Gregory the Great Church at 12.15 p.m. Sun- day. 'iter the mass, he was pre- sented with a gold chalice and a cheque by the Right Rev. Monsignor P. M. Dwyer on be- half of the parishoners. A dinner and reception were held later in St. Gregory's Au- ditorium, sponsored by the par-' ish. More than 150 persons filled the auditorium. Acting as toastmaster, Rev. L. McGough, assistant priest, told Father Currie, there are three influences in the life of a priest, his. pastor, his family and the man himself. JOYOUS OCCASION Speaking as a pastor and spiritual father, Monsignor Dwyer expressed his pleasure at seeing another son raised into the priesthood. "This is an occasion of great joy,'"' he said, The new priest's father, Mr. Currie, thanked all who had an influence on the vocation of his son and all responsible for the day's festivities. Father Currie thanked Mon- in the 19th lap, but Gunrey re- gained his position in the nex lap. Another hard fight took plac between the lead Porsches Porsches.

When the air cleared Kelly got out of his car and indicated he was all right. During the intermission be- tween heats the Orono Band hit the track, a good deal slower, but easier on the ears than the racing monsters. PRODUCTION CAR RACE The features of the day also included a 15-lap production sports car race won by Al Pease, Toronto, in MGB. His time was 27:21.8. Second was Dave Billes, in Corvette S.R., and third Grant Clark, in Aus- tin Healey. The fastest lap was for Vic Yachuk, with 1:47.2. Seventeen out of 24 cars fin- ished the race. The Formula Junior 10-lap race was won by John Can- non, in a Lola, in 17:00.5. Sec- ond was Ernie DeVos, in a Brabham Junior, who also clocked the fastest lap, 1:39.9, during the 9th lap. Third was Walter MacKay, with a Lotus 18. Eleven of the 15 cars fin- ished the race.

Donor Need Very Great * According to R. H. Stroud "the summer months as a re- sult of holidays make the great- est demands on the blood clinic. This is of course at a_ time |when many regular donors are not around to make their usual| contribution. The result is then} that the bank is faced with a high rate of consumption with a low yield in return." Any thinking citizen knows| that unlike our economy of deficit financing it is an abso- lute impossibility to issue trans- fusions now in the hope that the bank may be replaced later. With increased traffic on our) highways emergencies requir-) ing blood increase. at a very| rapid rate Our clinic this week} hopes to reach our previous an- nounced objective of 500 bottles. To this end special arrange- ments are being made by hav- ing extra beds and workers at the clinic so that it will be pos- sible to collect 100 bottles per hour. Organizations in the city are being contacted to urge in- creased numbers of donors. Have you 20 or 30 minutes to spare Thursday afternoon or evening?

"If our pion- eers visualized our philosophy of nursing, one can scarcely imagine that they foresaw the tremendous changes and expan- sion of health programs which have occurred during the past 20 years and influenced nursing practice." She said their dedication to a wonderful profession and to the welfare of mankind has made nursing what it is today. She wondered whet her today's nurses have achieved the broad concept of the profession which foreseen accident. the pioneers visualized. Nurses Alumnae Honors Two 50-Year Graduates "Some of the ideas which we now grasp as new. and unique were basic principles in their philosophy of nursing." "We are all concerned with providing the best possible care for patients. Toward this objec- tive, we have pressed for high- er standards of nursing educa- tion and practice. But, this does not mean we have forgotten the service of those pioneers that made such a great contribution to our world today." TRIBUTE TO FIRST CLASS Mrs. D. Coates, superinten- dent of Fairview Lodge, in pay ing tribute to the class of 1913, said: "'We are all missing some- thing, if we don't ask the older graduates, what was it like when you were here.
