2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdoy, January 21, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- Hotta Hops At 'Jailing' IN PRAISE OF OUR BUS DRIVERS Some folks down Lake Vista way have been throwing verbal rocks again at the Bus operation of the Public Utilities Commission, especially the Bus drivers. There is 'no desire here to give a blanket endorsement to the over-all operation of the City's buses (perhaps work- ° ers at Pedlars and Houdaille lack satisfactory service in the early morning), but this much should be remembered: Bus operators (like Police officers, shoe salesmen, and othérs who deal constantly with the public) are pretty fair game for people who like to whine (such as sufferers from peptic ulcers and irate husbands constantly in conflict with mothers-in-law.) ; There is constantly an open season on bus drivers, no matter how hard the latter may try to make life beautiful for the daily commuter. Oshawa's bus operators, as a group, rank right up with the best for courtesy and co-operation. Did you ever com- pare them with places like Metro Toronto where the aver- age commuter is treated with cold informality? Let's , give credit where credit is due -- the many acts of courtesy dis- played by local drivers throughout the years should be rec- ognized at least with a "'thank you". LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE The Oshawa Kinsmen Club has a new pet project -- sell- ing membership tickets to the new Canadian Automotive Museum on Simcoe street south (@t $2 each). Ron Wilson is chairman of the special Kin committee on this project -- he requests that the community get behind this venture. Tickets can be purchased at most downtown stores. These tickets will admit the bearer to the Museum an unlimited number of times during the year. . . . Speaking of the Osh- awa Kinsmen Club -- Dave McCann, one of their local mem- bers, has written a story on the late Monsignor Philip Coffey for the next edition of "Kin", the Provincial monthly pub- lished by all Ontario Kinsmen clubs, Monsignor Coffey, pas- tor of Holy Cross Roman Catholic Church and a Separate School representative on the Board of Education for 20 years, was once a member of the club. . . .. Members of the Oshawa Firefighters \Association recently presented Fire- fighter First-Class Frank Phelps with a leather briefcase -- he left recently for Peterborough where he will do social work with the Salvation Army with whom he was asociated here, He was a member of the Oshawa Fire Department for 12 years. ALDERMAN DYER SCOLDS HIS WORSHIP Alderman John Dyer 'wasn't too happy last Saturday hight when he got up to speak at the annual Wings-Awards Dinner of the Oshawa Flying Club before an audience of more than 325. He wasn't too happy with Mayor Lyman Gifford who had deputized him (as chairman of the Parks and Property com- mittee -- under whose jurisdiction the Oshawa Airport oper- @tes) to represent Council at the colorful social event. "When they invite His Worship the mayor to a dinner such as this," he started, 'nobody should take his place. I cannot represent the mayor at an occasion such as this. Nor can any member of Council, His Worship never gives Us any instructions as to what we should say on such occa- sions -- actually I am unprepared to speak." Prepared or not, Mr. Dyer, with ambiguity, continued to talk, especially praising the club for training fliers, young and oid, "We on Council are appreciative of what the Flying Club is doing, but a long and serious look must be taken at the Airport operation before. Council makes a financial com- mitment in the next budget," he said. "As head of the de- partment that will have much to say regarding the size of the Airport's annual grant, I think it would be advisable for you people to do a new selling job on the Council to show them what you are doing." Mr. Dyer continued: "I was here when we welcomed in Nordair, but things didn't turn out the way we had all hoped. Somebody here to- night suggested -- in a jocular way -- that the City increase its grant to $100,000 annually, which is about seven times its Present size -- to get back to our subject, the economies of the operation of the Airport during the last 244 years make it clear that you have a salesmanship job to do and also that you should sit down with Council and talk it over. We on Council regret that too few of you take an active interest in your City. I openly invite you to do so. The Airport oper- ation is costing the City more each year. We will have to take a hard look at it and see what must be done." It's anybody's guess what Mr. Dyer was trying to tell the Oshawa Airport, or the Flying Club. His public censure of the mayor seemed unwarranted inasmuch as Mr. Dyer's Council colleagues not so long ago (in the last pre-Gifford mayoralty era when Christine Thomas was mayor) often complained that they were too rarely depu- tized to attend such dinners on behalf of the mayor. As new chairman of Property, as a long-time member of that Committee, it seems strange that Mr. Dyer would not know whet to say on such an occasion, What would happen if someone, especially Mr. Gifford, attempted to tell him what to say? It could be catastrophic. WEATHER FORECAST -- Continuing Mild; Turning Cloudy { Of Jurors CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, (AP) Teamsters Union President James Hoffa said Monday he is afraid jurors who are locked up during his jury-tampering trial will vent their frustration on him. "It's worse than being in jail," said the stocky union leader. "They don't have any television; any newspapers, any access to anything." He was protesting to report- ers about a federal judge's deci- sion to lock up jurors selected for the trial, which began Mon- day morning under heavy guard. In any case, it may be a long time before a jury is seated. The first possibility was questioned for a total of two hours before he finally was tentatively seated. The trial is expected to 'last longer than six weeks, and Hoffa is running union affairs in the meantime from a hotel a block from the federal build- ing. His lawyer lost a bid earlier jto win dismissal of the indict- ment on grounds that the sup-} |posedly secret grand jury min- utes had been leaked to un- named, unauthorized persons. Harry Berke, Chattanooga lawyer representing the union leader, said he asked for the) dismissal in a_ secret ,session soon after Hoffa and five others went on trial. The charges are an outgrowth of Hoffa's 1962 conspiracy trial, which ended in Nashville with| in trial that of accepting a |gan trucking firm. | Dead Brother | Blamed For | Barrie Blaze | BARRIE (CP) -- Two broth-| jers, the only survivors in a fire| jin which five died here Satur- |day night, Monday blamed their jdead younger brother for start- jing the blaze.

Co-chairman Andre Lauren- deau said the reverse is also the case, "We recognize that a man, for instance in Rimouski, Que., may have no need for English," he said. * Mr, Dunton said the co-chair- men's informal tour would in- clude visits to the premiers of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Quebec to acquire privately in- formation about the teaching of different. languages across the country. : Their meeting Monday with Premiet Duff Roblin and the five-member Manitoba commit- CO-CHAIRMEN DUNTON AND LAURENDEAU | While some provincial govern- nounced in Ottawa, several pro-|20 per cent of the average an-/plan suggested the federal gov- vincial leaders Monday quickly|nual lifetime earnings from 30/ernment is proposing several | jchanges at the request of pro-) expressed their feelings on the subject.

Informed circles say Mr. Pearson did not go out of his way to seek this role although he was aware it was a possibil- ity. He was asked by Gen, de Gaulle to take it on. So it was added to his other aims for the Washington meetings Tuesday and Wednesday. In Washington, Mr. Pearson will give Mr. Johnson a run- down on Gen. de Gaulle's deci- sion to accord diplomatic recog- nition to Communist China, a step bitterly opposed by the Americans. Gen. de Gaulle encouraged him to do so because the French president evidently has faith that Pearson's approach to for- eign policy follows no rigid line dictated by Canada's closeness) to the United States.
