But despite the havoc -- trees, radio towers, barns and sheds went down like nine pins -- cas- ualties were few. No one in the Oshawa area was injured.

At Brooklin, a 12-foot motor boat was lifted from a driveway to the roof of a bungalow on Torian avenue. The boat sheared off the chimney and damaged the roof. Five members of Oshawa Flying Club had to run onto the airfield to drag a five - seater plane into a hanger before wind carried it away. The storm struck from the north - west in a 20 - mile wide belt - with Oshawa in the middle of it. Bowmanville . suffered Slightly with a few hydro wires Havoc over.

One fire, at a hydro sub - station could have been dangerous but was quickly extinguished. A 50- foot radio tower was torn down as were dozens of television antennas. Three houses in the lakeshore area were badly damaged when hit by falling trees. Giant trees that weathered many storms for over 50 years, were uprooted.

CBC Spurns Cash For Reject Film OTTAWA (CP)--The CBC has rejected a $30,000 offer for its discarded TV documentary about a day in the life of Prime Minister Pearson. A member of Parliament wants to know why. The offer for the film--which cost the CBC $35,000 originally --came early Friday from 10 private TV stations. Alphonse Ouimet, CBC presi- dent, replied curtly by tele- gram: "Your offer received. The film is not for sale."
