There are greedy, grudging and generous people; and the first two can be changed to the third if we get out and tell our story, Edward C. Hopkins told Oshawa branch Red Cross members Wednesday night. Mr. Hopkins, chairman of the Canadian Red Cross Public Relations Committee (Ontario Division), emphasized that many jobs carried out by the Red Cross are done by volun- munity's support to maintain the services we perform," said the branch's annual meeting in Hotel Genosha.

This is the jhighest honor the branch can igive, Certificates of Merit in recog- nition of years of service were awarded to Mrs. J. Jarrell, Mrs. Harold Davidson, Mrs. Mel Smith and William Smith. Reuniting of families behind the Iron Curtain is a valuable and important service given by the Red Cross, wrote Mrs. E. A. Mounce, Branch secre tary, in her report. She said seven new cases were handled by the local branch last year, "To date none of these have been completed but just prior, to Christmas two Oshawa fami- lies the Red Cross had been working with for more than two RISING LAND, HOME PRICES CITED Rising land and home prices will reduce real es- iate activity, the new presi- dent of the Oshawa and District Real Estate Board predicted Wednes- day night. Douglas J. M. Bullied, AR1, told board membérs rising prices will result in a decrease in home owner- ship because people will seek rental units. to do everything possible to hold the line on property increase. This might best be accomplished by greater participation in municipal decisions. "Ample serviced land would help reduce current land inflation," Mr. Bullied said. (See other story on Page 8.) At the same time, he noted real estate exchanges of more than $26,000,000 in Oshawa last year which, he said, suggested a "healthy economic potential."

"It is our job as realtors Apartments Boom Seen For Oshawa > A building boom may soon give Oshawa 9,660 apartment units, G. A. "Bert" Wandless, City planning director, said Wednesday. He told the Oshawa Planning Board that there are now 1,553 units in the city; another 3,615 are proposed for the near fu- ture. There are 4,492 units per- missible under existing zoning laws. To date there are 2,515 com- bined apartment and duplex units. Ken Crone was unanimously re-elected chairman for another year by the board. The election \of the vice-chairman was post- jponed until the next meeting |Jan. 28. | The board recommended to City Council an -amendment in the off street parking bylaw which would permit shopping plazas to have smaller parking lots. Mr. Wandless told the board that the present bylaws, which require one parking space for 75 square feet of building area, regardless of whether it is store space or storage area, are too stringent and result in overly large lots. New apartments in Oshawa are turning to underground parking, Mr. Wandless told the Board, the city should demand 50 per cent underground park- ing as it was said is the case in Toronto. New designs show the trend in that direction, he stated, A 2% per cent rise in the an- nual 'budget was announced by the board, due to a rise in sal- aries. The 'board expects to spend $32,680 this year com- pared with $22,641 in 1964. CHARGE YOUTH IN BREAK-INS Oshawa police officials said today that a city youth has been charged in con- nection with the break-ins at Donevan Collegiate and Vo- cational Institute and St. Gertrude's Roman Catholic Church Tuesday night. Detective sergeant J. D. Powell said today that James John Joseph Dono- van, 16, of 551 Dean av- enue, has been charged with two counts of break, enter with intent. Donovan is un- employed. Det.-Sgt. Powell also stated that two other youths are being sought for ques- tioning in. connection with the break-ins.

Cold To Remain DADDY, IT'S COLD OUTSIDE! THE PRESENT COLD spell doesn't trouble some people at all as is illus- trated by Norman Lambert of 910 Cartref avenue. In top picture, he takes a big leap into the chilling waters of the Oshawa Harbor, his compressed air tank secure- ly on back to allow him to stay submerged several min- utes. In bottom picture, he bravely disrobes on the west side of the harbor and dons his scuba-diving equipment for a descent that would chill many just to think of it. Lambert works out at the Oshawa harbor regularly to keep in trim for his winter scuba-diving cam- paign which takes him to such places Lake Balsam and Georgian Bay. The compressed air tank permits him to stay submerged for as long as 45 minutes, but he only does this when ac- companied by. other scuba- divers. He descended to 200 feet at Timmins last sum- mer. --Oshawa Times Photots Edward C. Hopkins at Wed- nesday night's dinner meet- ing in the Hotel Genosha.

DOUGLAS BULLIED Chest Plans For Dinner A "victory dinner' Feb. 11 Record Low For Winter Is Reported An Oshawa lakeshore resident "woke up this morning to find a glass of water in his bedroom frozen solid. will mark the success of the Greater Oshawa Community Chest campaign last year, it was announced today. The campaign went over the $275,900 objective, said Robert Branch, executive. secretary. Final totals and reports will be heard at the combined '"'vic- tory" and annual Chest dinner, he said. The dinner will be sponsored by the United Auto Workers Union, Local 222 and will be held at the Hotel Genosha. Monsignor Paul Dwyer will be guest speaker at the din- ner. He was cold and so were thousands of Oshawa area resi- dents when they stepped outside this morning. Temperatures in the city and district plunged below the zero mark early today. Latest re- ports from the Toronto weather office indicate the cold period will continue with snow a possi- bility. It was the coldest morning on record this winter in Oshawa, says John MacLean, Court street, who keeps track daily of the thermometer's ups and A new Community Chest ex- ecutive will be elected at the dinner and section chairmen and people in local industrial groups who were instrumental in canvassing at plants will be honored, said Mr; Branch. Details of the dinner were dis- cussed Wednesday at a Com- munity Chest board of direc- tors luncheon. downs. He said it was two degrees below zero at 8 a.m. today and four below at 9 a.m. The: pre- vious low this winter was six degrees above on Dec. 18, said . MacLean. At a Whitby greenhouse this morning at 9.30 a.m. the thermo- meter had plunged to 16 degrees below zero. The same thermo- meter had recorded a 14 above temperature at midnight. In the Raglan area the tem- perature this morning was re-| : corded at 12 belew. Port Perry police-said early today the ther- mometer had dipped to five degrees below. Taxi cab companies reported the busiest morning of the win- ter and many city buses were packed. A bus driver left Toronto this morning where the tem- DR. F. W, RUNDLE perature was eight above. He told a Times reporter it got colder as he headed toward Osh- awa and at Liverpool road he found it became harder to steer and change gears. Reject Plan To Rezone east parking lot found no sup- port among Planning Board members Wednesday night. The board's recommendation against rezoning the Nathan Spring property will go to Coun- cil next Monday. R. L. Swartz, a lawyer repre- senting Mr. Spring, said Gen- eral Motors were anxious to ac- quire the property to give ac- cess onto Colborne street from the parking lot. The new exit, he said, was re- quired to relieve congestion on William and Mary streets. The building was in bad shape and Mr. Spring had attempted to seli the property without success. be- fore the General Motors offer, he said. : PETITION OPPOSED A delegation of Colborne strect residents. bearing a 55-signature petition opposed the rezoning at the public hearings. The group's spokesman clain- ed the exit would endanger chil- dren living and attending school along the street. The Mary Street School lies on the north side of the street, across from the proposed exit. Being a one way street, they claimed, an exit onto Colborne would only add to the conges- tion around the parking lot, and make it virtually impossible for residents to use their own drive- ways during the rush hour. Following another hearing the board decided to recommend to Council the application of Joseph and Max Tennebaum of Toronto, for rezoning of land on both sides of Gibb street ex- tended west of Grenfell street. The Tennebaums want R-4 zoning north of Gibb and R-3 zoning south of Gibb for seven and five-storey apartment de- velopments respectively. The firm, represented by law- yer Gilbert Murdoch, asked for the unopened Frontenac road al- lowance (66 feet wide) in ex- change for giving' up the 80 foot right-of-way for Gibb street. Rezoning a Colborne street property to provide an exit for General Motors' William street City Doctor Is Honored, An Oshawa medical practi. tioner, Dr. F.
