POOR SUBSTITUTE Starr Critical Loan Legislation -_ OTTAWA -- (Special) -- A 'half a loaf is better than none, Michael Starr, MP for Ontario, said here this week in discussing the student loan legislation. He said that the legislation is a poor substitute for the Liberal election campaign prom- ise of scholarships for univer- sity students, -- : "This is not a bill we an- ticipated debating as a result of the promises which were made. Nevertheless, we are prepared to pass it because it Bell To Build 200-Foot Tower Later this month work will begin to erect the 200-foot tow- er needed to bring public mo- bile telephone service to the Oshawa area, J.

A small building at the bottom of the tower will house the radio equipment necessary for the public mobile channel Service will be available to customers in this area on Sept 1, Mr. Lowry said. Coverage wil be in a 20 to 25-mile ra- dius -- north to Port Perry, is better than nothing," Mr.) Starr said. He denied a Toronto news- paper headline which accused the Conservatives of throwing up a roadblock on the bill and pointed out that at the time the headline appeared, only 13 Conservative MPs out of a total of 38 had spoken on the meas- jure. He charged that it was a deliberate attempt on the vart of the newspaper to distort the truth and mislead the public. | Mr. Starr suggested that stu-| jdents might have trouble. ne-| |gotiating a loan with a bank at an interest rate of 5% ver cent.| |when. the banks could Joan out! |money to businesses at a higher| rate of interest. "I. would also ask the min-| ister of finance whether he an-| ticipates an increase in enrol-| ment at institutions of higher learning because of the legisla- tion and what is this increase expected to be?"

Lindsay council prepared a brief and received support from Chambers of Commerce in the Haliburton area. Glen Hodgson, MPP, also came out in favor of retaining the line. As a result, it has been an- nounced by the Board of Trans- port Commission that the CNR Oshawa Community Chest slid into the water of the Bay of Quinte at Hay Bay and swam| 20 miles -- in training for the| big Port Dalhousie - CNE swim,}| Aug. 20. | On that day he will swim) against 20 swimmers -- some| six of whom are professionals--} for a gruelling 32 miles.

""At first glance this would appear to be a wanton disre- gard for the game laws. How- ever, the increasing number of convictions: reflects, in part, a more aggressive atitude to- wards enforcement by conser- vation officers,' Mr. Walroth said, It also indicates a marked increase in the number of hunt- ers and anglers, he said. Fines for the 232 cases during the past year amounted to an javerage of $23.27 per person. Amount of the fines ranged from $13 to $116. The latter was a careless hunting charge.

Marks First Birthday The Canadian Automotive Mu- seum, 99 Simcoe street south, Oshawa, today celebrates its first anniversary. Douglas Fisher, general man- ager of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, the organization responsible for establishing the museum, stated that the results of this first year have shown the museum is definitely ful- filling its purpose. The museum was established to serve as a visitors attrac- tion for the City of Oshawa. This it has accomplished. Dur- ing this first year of operation 21,762 people have toured the museum, A large percentage of these visitors have been from all across Canada and the United States of America. The Museum has also con- ducted 84 guided tours. Atiend- ing some, of these guided tours were several hundred school children both from Oshawa and other Ontario Communities. It was open every day with the exception of Christmas Day since it first opened July 23rd 1963, Since first opening the mu- seum has added many new ex- hibits and made major changes in some of the other displays. During the first year it has received a great deal of na- tional publicity. For many tourists a visit to Oshawa and the museum is now a must, The members of the museum committee are looking ahead with great expectation to a much larger attendance during this second year as the mu- seum becomes better known lacross Canada, .

Resident hunters required more warnings than fishermen, and resident hunters were charged at nearly double the rate of anglers. Non-resident hunters finished| the year with an unblemished record, "Despite the rising number of infractions, there appears to be increasing public awareness of the value and role of the con- ~ation officer and the natur- al resources he is protecting," 'Mr. Walroth said. | | | thank each) ; and every one who participated] : tion Bible school.

McINTYRE HOOD Special evenanil England lent To The Oshawa Times LONDON -- Spending three days in London after a visit to Ireland and Scotland, and en route for a tour to include France, Switzerland, Italy, Aus- tria, Germany and Denmark be- fore returning home to Oshawa, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Wysotski, of 589 Albert street, are being completely thrilled by their new experiences and the beauty and historic interest of the places they are visiting. My wife and I had dinner with them on their final eve- ning in London before leaving for Paris, and it was a delight- ful occasion for us, as we re- called the days of from 25 to 35 years ago when I had close as- sociations with the musical. and dramatic activities of the Ukrainian citizens of Oshawa. These were days worth recall- ing, days which had been filled with the beauty of song, the magic of Ukrainian folk dancing, and the enjoyment of the poetry of Taras Shevchenko and Lesia Ukrainka. Because of these associations, and of the many friendships they brought among the New Canadians of Ukrainian origin and descent, the visit of Mr. and Mrs. Wysotski was of more than passing interest, and the hours sped away as we talked of these days of the thirties and of the mutual friends who were close to us then. NEWMAN CLUB TOUR Mr. and Mrs. Wysotski are members of a party of 18 people making a wonderful tour of the British Isles and Europe under the auspices of the Newman Club' of Toronto. Leaving New York by jet airliner on July 13, the party arrived at Glasgow, and from there flew to Dublin, capital of the Republic of Ire- land. A day was spent there making a tour of the many places of interest, including the National Museum, Dublin Castle, the Library of Trinity College, St. Patrick's Cathedral, and the headquarters of the Irish Hospitals Sweepstakes. After a dayfree for sight- seeing in Dublin, the party flew Local Couple On 2nd Honeymoon on to London, and had two full days of sightseeing in conduct- ed tours before we met them. Their tours included every place in London of historic interest, and also to Windsor Castle, Eton College, Hampton Court Palace and Stoke Poges. ar pe PARIS in day following our de- lightful dinner party, Mr. and Mrs. Wysotski were due to fly to Paris, to spend three days there on tours of that fabulous city, including both the histor- ical and modern buildings and places of interest, and a special excursion to the Palace of Ver- sailles, After Paris, the party goes to Lourdes to spend a Bee a night there, and then on by air to Rome for a four days' stay. The schedule in Rome calls for visits to the Quirinal Palace, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museum and Gallery, the Sis- tine Chapel, 'the Colosseum, Pal- atine Hill, the Roman Forum and other places of interest. Switzerland provides the next stopping place of the tour, with three days and nights there, and including an excursion to Lucerne and Lake Zug. On July 30, the party flies to Vienna for two days there, then to Frank- furt and on to Copenhagen, for Sightseeing in that city and a tour around Denmark before flying back to New York on August 3. SECOND HONEYMOON While Mr. and Mrs. Wysotskt had been thrilled by the first few days of their tour, they were looking forward very keen- ly to seeing the many places they were to visit in Europe. They told me this was their second honeymoon, Not long ago, they had celebrated their . 25th wedding anniversary, but this wonderful trip to so many historic and beautiful places was the real. celebration, to which they had been looking for- ward for a long time. And since Jast month my wife and I had travelled over much of the same ground on a holiday tour of Europe, we assured them that the reality of it all would be far beyond their 'expecta- tions. i
