DEATH CAR IN HIGHWAY 401 FATALITY Mrs. Beverly Platford, 20, of Kingscourt Apartments, Ajax, died in hospital after a freak crash on Highway 401, near Park road Monday noon. She was a passenger in , the above car, driven by her husband, George, 23, when it crashed into a parked car on the median-side of the west- bound lane. Police said that the driver of the parked car, Peter Martin Gielan of Wal- laceburg, had stopped to give assistance in a_ relatively minor accident in which an eastbound car driven by Nancy Joan Graham of Peter- borough left the road and crashed onto the median. Gi- elen was out of the car at the time of the second crash. George Platford received a series of body cuts. Wayne Fraser of Frankford, a pass- enger in the Platford car, is under "intensive care", in the Oshawa General Hospital with throat injuries. Miss Graham received only minor injuries in her accident. It is believed that the Platfords moved to Ajax recently from Frankford. --Oshawa Times Photo Plan $225,000 MCVI Annex An estimated $250,000 addi- tion to McLaughlin Collegiate and Vocational Institute will be built by Fassel Construction of Scarborough for a bid price of $239,870. the Oshawa Board of Education decided Monday night.

TRUSTEE SAYWELL ~ Pre-cast concrete curbs are Oshawa but colored sidewalks and pre-cast sidewalk slabs are out unless they become more economic, according to Robert Richardson, city field engineer. Portable pre-cast sidewalks are being tested in Toronto. Their value fies in their being able to be moved for street widenings and installation of services, say Toronte author- ities. "They are not really economic yet and they pose a few diffi- culties in installation," said Mr, Richardson. He said city sidewalks are constructed with poured con- crete and joints are left between the 6 x 4 foot slabs so that, in effect, they may be lifted and moved. Experiments with a plastic- like material, which looks like asphalt and can be colored, are being carried out for both roads and sidewalks, said Mr. Rich- ardson. He said this new compound may prove to last longer or wear better as sidewalk ma- terial -- but so far its only ben- Says Colored Sidewalks Out under consideration for use in .
