2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, October 15, 1964 GOOD. EVENING -- By JACKGEARIN -- A PLEA FOR CHILDREN'S SWIMMING POOLS , Robert Hoy of 1154 Nelson street, who shares this de- partment's hope for more children's swimming pools in Osh- awa (as opposed to a pool for the Oshawa Civic Auditorium) writes: : "I was shocked to hear that the Centennial committee recommended a stadium in view of the fact that there is such a desperate need for swimming pools for youngsters. "Why couldn't the committee -- also City Council -- show some concern for the underprivileged little ones who have to 'sweat it out' on the hot streets-in the summer. "Perhaps the Centennial committee isn't any more inter- pans ha swimming pools for the children than is City Council selY, SOME NOTES ON EDUCATION Aubrey Hagar, chairman of the Guelph Board of Educa- tion, was quoted'in a recent news story in the Guelph Mercury as wondering whether technical school was now out, of date with the coming age of automation. He was quoted at the first Guelph conference on educa- tion when 200 registered for the two-day session, which he organized, Local citizens participating were invited by the Board of Education. F. A: Hamilton, Director of Education, said the purpose of the conference was to appraise what was being done in Guelph in terms of Education needs. Said Mr. Hagar: "My understanding of present-day indus- trial thinking indicates that we should be training students with a great deal of versatility, meaning that we should be working on language, literature, mathematics and science in the grades to 12 period. The specialized techniques that we now teach in our vocational schools are not needed in auto- mation and a person can be trained to work in the auto- mated situation very quickly if that person has a broad and comprehensive education in basic subjects. It is now possible that we are building schools that will be out of date before they are finished." He said the conference should re-examine the complete- ness of the curriculum of grade one to 12 because this was "the end" of formal education for the majetity of students. HERB COOK WILL ATTEND 116TH. REUNION IN OSHAWA Best news regarding the upcoming reunion in Oshawa, Nov. 6, of the 116th, Battalion (those gallant "Old Sweats" of the First World War) concerned Herb Cook. The former Oshawa bakery' boy who later became international vice- president of the world-wide F. W. Woolworth Co. Ltd. will be in town to join his old buddies with whom he served in the grim days of 1917-1918. Mr. Cook, who is retired now and living in Toronto, has: attended several of the reunions, which proves what a bond of friendship these ex-troopers have. JACK PALANCE AT UKRAINIAN CELEBRATION Several Oshawa citizens of Ukrainian descent were at at the O'Keefe Centre in Toronto last weekend to hear Jack Palance, hard-boiled star of stage, screens and television. He donned Ukrainian costume and sang a Ukrainian tune at a concert sponsored by the Ukrainian National Youth Fed- eration of Canada. Both his father and mother were born in the Ukraine. He speaks Ukrainian tolerably well. His father worked as a lumberjack near Ottawa. The Ukrainian National Youth Federation of Canada marked its 30th anni- versary as well as the birth of the national poet of the Ukraine, Taras Shevchenko. IN THE HEAT OF THE CENTENNIAL BATTLE In the heat of this bitter Centennial project battle, some concentrated efforts are being made to convince the man on the street that City Council has a moral right to endorse the Civic Auditorium swmming pool project because many who pledged subscriptions to the Auditorium were given to under- stand that the pool was to be the second phase in the west end operation. Such argument, of course, is intended solely for the aninitiated, for those not too familiar with the true facts in the case. It is equally as misleading to claim that the great majority of the citizens favor the Civic Auditorium pool pro- posal -- as recent events well prove, there is tremendous sup- port also for the proposed arts theatre, the grandstand and for children's outdoor swimming pools (even if the latter are only operative part of the year). Perhaps by the time these words see print, the Centen- nial project drama will have taken a new and unexpected twist; regardless of this, it will continue to be a heated, bit- terly-contested struggle right down to the final act primarily because some $185,000 is involved, and that is big money in any league. The duty of the Council, in its wisdom, is to see that the wishes of majority are respected, keeping in mind a project that synchronizes with the true spirit of the Centennial 'anni- versary. If a plebiscite is necessary let's have it This is nof an easy task, but that is why City Councils are elected -- to make difficult decisions in the best interests of the majority after being scurpulously fair that their decision is no fluke. The Centennial committee rendered a fine public service against difficult odds, are to be commended; this much ad- mitted, their 'task from the start was an impossible one.

The Creditiste leader sald "'a very lange majority of the French Canadians of Quebec" were impressed by the Queen's open - minded address to the Quebec legislature Saturday and by her impeccable command of French, "Her Majesty represents for all of us a way of life that has enabled us to grow in freedom and according to our aspira- tions,' he said amid applause from 'all parts of the House. Mr. Caouette said the Queen was the guest of the Quebec sOvernment and separatist demonstrators had no right or justification to insult her.
