These children are desperate and through the kind contributions to the Chest we are able to continue our work to help the kids." --Oshawa Times Photo Like Julius Caesar, Magis- trate Harry Jermyn conquered Gaul here Monday. "Gaul" was Ronald Gaul, 27, of 51 Colborne street. He was convicted of passing a forged cheque, and sentenced to six months in jail. He was "conquered" when he attempted to win a verbal ex- change with Magistrate Jermyn, an exchange that endured throughout the trial and after the conviction. His Worship finally had him physicajly escorted from the Courtroom, still muttering. Gaul began by asking for a change of venue, arguing that Magistrate Jermyn knew his re- cord, and therefore should not try him, This was denied, His Worship ""freplied that this type "of pre- cedent would disrupt Courts all over the country.

Det. Powell of lying: "IT never expected you to tell' the truth,' he muttered. "You are just a'helpless man/| floating on a sea of injustice, aren't you?", Magistrate Jer- myn jibed. Gaul attempted once again. He was set down for sentence until Court. ended, and while in the prisoner's bench, he con- sulted with those around him, as well as attorney John Greer and Acting Crown Attorney John Humphreys.

Rump, BTC secretary, that '"'the local citizens (apparently) have become accustomed to the loud diesel whistle and did not respond to the quiet- er whistle."
