Jo'S JOURNAL "BY JO ALDWINCKLE Women's Editor of The Times farmers have to say about not enough much rain or too few bees and too many grubs @ iand of fruitful harvests, "flowing with milk honey" and should be the healthiest, best fed people world. We're not. Dr. Margaret 8. McCready, dean of Macdonald College, University of Guelph, who is highly qualified in all fields of nutrition, claims there more ignorance in eating habits today than in our grand- mothers' time. : In an affluent society; she says, the shopping baskets, , are filled with all sorts of packaged, exotic and the plain staples, the body-builders are given the . Our grandmothers knew the value of a good soup a milk pudding. There was order in the home eal time was meal time for everybody. m Dr. McCready addressed a dinner meeting of the Milk 'oundation of Oshawa on Tuesday night. with her afterwards, the treasurer approached to ask how the usual cheque should be made out and she immediately replied 'Make it out to the Freedom From Hunger cam- paign, the Mysore project, please." "We were brought together by a mutual interest in the Islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon. She said that the month spent there was the only time in her life that, she hadn't had milk to drink, She hadn't even seen a milkman, but I- had. He goes his rounds with a low, horse-drawn cart and delivers his milk in wine bottles. Salute To The Champions Oshawa can take a personal pride in Paul and Susan Huehnergard who won the Canadian Senior Pairs Champion- ship in Calgary recently. Paul, 20, and Susan, 16, are the son and daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Leighton Huehnergard of Agincourt and former residents of Oshawa. The champions who started to skate in Noranda, Quebec, attended Adelaide McLaughlin Public School and O'Neill Collegiate while in Oshawa and skated as singles at the Children's Arena. Be- coming aware of their proficiency, the parents decided to move to Agincourt where Paul and Susan could join the Tam o' Shanter Skating Club and be coached by Bruce and Margaret Hyland. They won the Canadian Junior Pairs championship at North Bay last year and this weekend are competing in the North American competitions in Rochester, New York. Their combined achievement has brought a ray of happiness to their parents who are sorrowing in the tragic death of their other son, Randy, 18, who was killed in an automobile accident at Christmastime. In the first week of March, Paul and Susan will take part in the world championships in Colorado Springs and whatever the outcome, we can be proud of them. Other ambassadors of goodwill are the drum major- ettes sponsored by the German-Canadian Club Harmonie, that left this week for Dusseldorf, Germany, to perform in the Rhineland's pre-Lent festivities. These are the girls that put on such a glittering show at the Club Lorelei last month. They are bound fo be a big hit over there and will have the time of their young lives. The Verdict Is 'Well Done' From majorettes to Angry Men is quite a jump but the twelve in Oshawa Little Theatre's production this week are making themselves seen; heard and appreciated. Twelve Angry Men is a strong play with forthright dialogue but it could. become static without perceptive direction. In this Harry Chapman who took over from A. T. Elliott who was posted to England after the play was cast, has scored a marked success. . There was enough movement to keep theeplot bubbling 'without interfering with the mounting tension. It is a chal- fenge to any director to: have 13 men on a small stage all the time, seated at a long table and to move and re-group them and bring them back to their places and this the direc- tor achieved. The program doés not identify the jurymen completely. 'There were weak characters but no weak 'performers. Out- standing in the cast were Reg. Tompkins, Richard Suther- land, Gwyn Roberts, Keith and Rex Williams, Harry Edgar and Rudolph Gunter. James Sabyan, the sole, dissident voice, and Earl Bailey, foreman of the jury, warmed to their parts as the play progressed. The audience was atten- tive, entertained and well satisfied. Out of New York comes the story of the engagement of the Canadian-born soprano Teresa Stratas to Zubin Mehta, conductor of the Montreal and Los Angeles Symphony Orch- estras. As a girl, Teresa lived in Oshawa with her parents and attended E. A. Lovell School. Even then she could sing like a nightingale and her musical career is like a Cinderella story. She has just made a star-studded debut as Antonia in the Tales of Hoffman with the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Her fiance was born in Bombay. They may be married in Europe this summer when Miss Stratas will be singing in the Munich Festival and Mr Mehta conducting in Salzburg. Talent? On the ice or on the stage, Oshawa is bursting with it. Hopscotch And Hoop Sticks The name, William Lea, LTCL, is on the lips of every youngster who has ever tried the Grade 2, Royal Conserva- tory of Music (Toronto) examinations. Examiners tell me that Lea's "Popcorn'"' is number one choice of all Grade 2 candidates right across the country. The interesting con- nection here is that Mrs. William Lea is the former Miss Betty Harmer, Shirléy's younger sister and also a talented vocalist. Mr. and Mrs. Lea who reside in Agincourt, have a fantily of four which may account for Mr. Lea's preference for writing pieces for and about moppets. His latest effort is entitled "For Kids Only" and is a set of three street songs set in a slightly modern idiom. These inctude "Ted- dy Bear, Teddy Bear, Touch the Ground", "On the Moun- tain Stands a Lady" and "One, Two, Three O'Leary", Remember singing "One, Two, Three O'Leary, I Spy Sister Mary . . ." while you bounced a ball? What fun to play it on the piano instead of something like Springtime Frolic . Strictly for the birds, that is and they don't have to pass exams.

Mon- day, the Brownies will also be celebrating the 50th anniversary of their organization. Oshawa Brownies have a spe- cial project to. mark this event. Since they were originally call- ed "Rosebuds" Oshawa Brown- ies are planning to send a: bou- quet of rosebuds to all baby girls born in the Oshawa Gen- eral Hospital on February 22. Companies and packs are planning international programs during Thinking Week and many church parades will be held, some in conjunction with the Boy Scouts. The first recorded Brownie ~|pack in Oshawa was registered at the provincial office in 1924. It was formed by Sister Audrey at Bishop Bethune College which stood on Simcoe streét south, where the Central Collegiate now stands, In 1928, a pack was formed at Holy Trinity Church (Angli- can) and the first Brown Owl was Mrs. M. S. Howden. Other packs were formed in rapid succession. At the Salva- tion Army Citadel, Mrs. Charles Langfield led a company of Girl Guides and Sunbeams. This was later incorporated with the Girl Guide Association and became the 10th Brownie Pack. Mrs. Langfield was ~a| leader for 38 years. Mrs. J. H.

Wotton, Mrs. R, EB. Wilson, Mrs. Harold Beamish and Mrs. Victor Phair. Today there are 33 packs in the Oshawa division, number- ing 918 Brownies. By example and play these little girls learn the responsibility of being "on their honor'; loyalty and un- selfishness. At her enrollment a Brownie declares "I. promise on my honor to be loyal to God and the Queen and to my country, to help other people every day, especially those at home," The Brownie motto is LAH, LAH, LAH shouted three times with a leap on the last LAH which means Lend A Hand. Sixes, a group of not more than six girls with a Sixer in charge. Members of each Six wear their own emblem, fairy, elf, gnome or leprechaun and the. centre of their fairy ring is a magic toadstool on which sits a wise old owl. In most cases a Tawny Owl assists the Brown Owl and a_ former Brownie now a Girl Guide is the Pack Leader. Brownies may enrol at seven years of age and Fly-Up to Guides at ten. "Basically, higher education has not changed," stated Mr. N. S. C. Dickinson, Registrar of Scarborough College, Univer- sity of Toronto, in his opening remarks to the parents attend- ing the February. meeting of the Vincent Massey Home and School Association. He continued by explaining the origin and purpose of three constituent colleges being start- ed in Ontario, of which Scar- borough College was the first. In 1956 and 1957 statistical re- search was promising a prob- able enrolment too great for the universities to absorb under the existing conditions and they began to look for a solution. The result was a decision to create colleges, connected with the universities, to teach the general course in the Arts, and Sciences, leaving the universi- ties free to teach the special- ized honors courses, and thus to help remove the stigma at- tached to the general courses as being only for those who couldn't manage an_ honors course. Mr. Dickinson pointed out that it was unfair to a child to channel him into an_ honors course simply because he achieved 75 - 80 per cent in Grade 13. The average child at that age was still not sure of his vocation and needed a year of general education at the uni- versity level to adjust from the different world of High School. Children were on their own at university and it was a tragedy to see good students fall by the wayside and fail the first year of an honors course through in- ability to adjust rapidly enough to the change, whereas the next year could find them blossom- ing. So it was with this idea in mind that more facilities were to be made available for them Registrar of Scarborough College Higher Education Unchanged 2,640 professors by 1970, under the present system, so it was hoped that television would take up some of the slack. "When the changes advised by the committee studying the benefit of Grade 13 were imple- mented," Mr. Dickinson said "formal education will end at Grade 12, with two choices available to those wishing to continue their education -- a matriculation year as a cushion to entering university, or a year at a constituent college, from which they could go on, if they -wished, into a_ specialized course,"' Mr. Dickinson also empha- sized the need for guidance and counselling for the years prior to Grade 10, to help a child choose his course wisely, Par- A Brownie pack is divided into|- 10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Saturday, February 20, 1965 * '\ BIGGEST CHEESE Canada's largest cheese was Ont., and a depth so heavy it broke | floor of the exhibit. the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. se ey the daughter of Mr. and Mrs..

He con- cluded by urging the parents to give their children the op- portunity of having one year in a general course to orient them- selves, unless there were strong desires and indications towards an honors course. Mr. Dickinson was _ intro- duced by Mr. Donald Fleming, and thanked by Mr. Kennet Forbes. to get this all important one year before choosing a more specialized course. He also mentioned that Scar- borough College was to pioneer the use of closed circuit tele- vision in Canada, with screens in every room and laboratory, for teaching greater numbers of students at one time, and also making available by video tape the top man in any field. The results were equal to and in some cases greater than those produced by lecturing a large group of students in the classroom.
