GENERALS BOW IN WITH VICTORY History was made Tuesday night at Oshawa's new Civic Auditorium. when Oshawa Generals defeated St. Catha- rines Black Hawks, 6-4, in an OHA Junior "A" game. It was the General's first game ' in the Auditorium. In a brief ceremony before the start of the second period, E. R. S. "Dick" McLaughlin (on left) chairman of the Civic Audi- torium committee, shakes hands with Weston Adams, president and chairman of the Board of the Boston Bruins Bulk Buying Plan Urged Six overhead projectors have been bought, one at a time, by Oshawa Board of Education this year -- but if they had all been purchased at the same time there would have been a $120 saving, it was learned at a meeting iast night. T. J. Heath, Public School inspector, said the projectors - cost $200 each but a ten per cent discount is allowed if they are bought in sets of three. Trustee Stanley Lovell op- posed the buying of two more 'ors at the board meet- "Bublic School oficials asked the board to buy the projectors from this year's budget instead of four films which had been budgeted for. OPPOSE PLAN The request was granted, with Mr. Lovell voting against and Trustees George Drynan, Leo B. Glover, Mrs. C. C. Lee, George Fletcher and FE. A. Bassett backing the purchase. Mr. Lovell said he could see no.reason why the items should be switched now. : He said: "We have bought six projectors one at a time during this year and never taken ad- vantage of the quantity dis- count. : "If we need films we should not be buying projectors and if we need the projectors they should be put on next year's budget. We should not change at this stage from supply to capital items." Mr. Fletcher said he thought it "too confining" to ask the principals and officials to detail every item they would need at the beginning of each year. Mr. Drynan said if the pro- jectors were put onto next year's budget they would not be purchased until May or June and the Public Schools would suffer. Mr. Lovell said arrangements could be made to buy the pro- jectors early in the year. Dr. O'Neill said changes like this had been made before and he did not think it right that secondary schools should have five projectors while Public Schools have now only two pro- jectors.

Wheelchair 'Presented Rule Death Of Lawyer Accidental BRECHIN (Staff) -- A Cor- oner's jury ruled here last night that the death of Wallace Card, one of two Orillia lawyers who represented Mayor Wilburn Cramp in the NONG probe, was accidental, The five men deliberated about 35 minutes before the de- cision. Card was, killed, they were told, in a train-car crash on a little-used private siac-road Oct. 27. Dr, H. Beatty Cotnam, supervising coroner for the Province of Ontario, attended the inquiry. é Both Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck and Coroner Dr. K. G. Jardine of Beaverto:@euzgested two verdicts to the jury -- acci- dental or suicidal. Card, 49, they were told, died of severe crush- ing injuries that, according to Oshawa General Hospital path- ologist Dr. J. C. Martin, would have killed him instantly. Michael Morris, operator of a service station on Highway 12, told the jury that Card had in- quired train times of him less than an hour previous to his 11.20 a.m. death. Robert Anderson, a chartered accountant in the employ of the Upper Canada Law Society, said that Card's trust account, the one lawyers hold for their cli- ents, had been investigated in |June, and that Card was given _|a Sept. 30 deadline to submit his | audited accounts, This was never done, he said, and an after-death invcstigation showed that Card had "apparent . liabilities to clients of from $35,- D 000 to $40,000."
