JANE SKALIN SHARON HURST MARY ANN AZZOPARDI The search is on for 'Miss Oshawa 1966' -- a girl with a shapely figure and per- sonality and talent to match.

The Oshawa contest will be combined with a Coronation Ball to be held at the UAW Hall on October 15.

The entry list so far features seven shapely lovelies. Entrants will be accepted from an area bounded by Bay Ridges in the west to Trenton in the east and from Peter- borough and Lindsay to the north. Before the preliminary con- test to be held on October 14 the Jaycees would like to see some 12 or 15 entrants. As in previous years the girls will be judged in four competitions, The first will be in bathing suits. Next the girls move on to evening gowns. Later on the girls will have a chance t~ display a talent. The last com- SHARON BROWN Buses In Red Again But Prospect 'Black' Oshawa's bus department is back in the red but the oper- ating deficit is not as "red" as it 'was last year. Public Utilities Commission ers learned last night that to the end of August the bus oper- ating deficit was $19,597 com- pared with a $24,914 deficit to the end of August in 1964. "We have four good bus months coming up," noted W. H. Gibbie, secretary - treasurer. During the last four months of 1964 strikes at General. Motors in the United States and in Osh- awa reduced passenger rev- enues. Up to the end of June this year the bus department opera- tions were in the black -- with a $3,471 profit.

Addressing the league's an- nual meeting in Ottawa today, Mr. Austin said he has come to the conclusion that the one great mystery of life today is "chow have we managed to sur- vive" "The field of accident preven- tion in Canada is well tended and in strong hands,"' he said. "Should this force release its full potential on the people of this nation, the record of death and injury through accidents will be greatly improved." Mr. Austin said home and child safety is assuming the im- portance it deserves with baby- sitter courses becoming avail- thoughtful parents their parents." expiry of the commission-union contract (a new contract was signed in July) helped increase expenses, to leave the depart- ment with a $10,645 net loss compared with a net' loss of $16,142 during the first seven months of 1964. MORE PASSENGERS Total passengers to the end of August this year numbered 2,230,488 compared with 2,074,- {180 in 1964 for a 156,308 passen- |ger increase. Total miles travelled by city buses to the end of August amounted to 568,655 for an 11,- 728-mile increase over the same period in 1964.

A master plan of parks and open space in the valley from |Lake Ontario to the north city limits, will be prepared during the next six months by Project Planning Associates Lid., To- ronto, at a maximum cost of $12,000. Fred Crome, city works com- missioner, says between the lake and Taunton rd., there are 393 acres of land used as parks or zoned "valley". Of that total, he says, 52 acres or 13 per cent will be required for the valley roadway. And 80 acres of land adjacent to' the zoned valley land could be acquired and re- zoned for park development. "The valley route will not de- stroy the valley," says N. E. |Damas, project director for the 1961 city-wide traffic planning study. "Every effort has been made in locating and designing Roadway W shoersnversetsiteeenecamn sagt under Bloor st,, and the Mac- donald - Cartier Freeway, over Gibb st., under John, King and Bond sts., over Adelaide ave. and under Rossland rd., to a new connection at grade with Beatrice st., to Taunton rd., at grade and eventually to Simcoe st: n., just north of the city limits. The department of highways has stipulated that the route be- tween the Freeway and the cen- tral business district be design- ed for expansion to six lanes, |This will be done, says Mr. |Damas, with a 34-foot wide median instead of a 10-foot wide median. "The route has always been a four lane, 50-mph route," says Mr. Damas. 'It has not been designed as a high speed route because it is not a long route and entrances and exits are too close together for a high speed |design."' |FUNCTIONAL STUDIES | The traffic planning - report 'was adopted in principle by jcouncil in May, 1962.

But, council has asked for and received interim information which it has used in dealing with such things as applications for building per- mits and subdivision approval in the vicinity of the valley route and other planned proj- ects such as the city. hall addi- tion. One example: In July, 1964, council adopted a report to con- struct the John st. bridge to span the future valley route as well as the Oshawa creek. "The city has taken full ad- vantage of the planning pro- cess," says Mr. Damas. "It has to know ahead of time what is going to be needed in the fu- ture." G. A. Wandless, city planning director, says although the gen- eral location of the route in the valley has been made public the exact detailed location (completed from Wentworth to Bond sts.) has not been reveal- ed publicly "as people could re- jSort to land speculation". It is a thorny problem. but Mr. Wandless, Mr. Crome and Mr, Damas agree that it is "the lesser of two evils to release general information 'on the route's exact location and with- hold detailed information until the city is ready to act. We are trying to safeguard the interests of citizens as a whole." Council, planning board and the now disbanded traffic ad- visory council held numerous meetings, some with Mr. Damas, after the traffic plan- ning report was presented. Welfare Hike Starts Today A complete new schedule of welfare . assistance payments, which will mean an average in- crease of 15 per cent for wel- fare recipients, went into effect today. . Chesebrough, city wel- fare administrator, said the new, |schedule was approved earlier |this year by the provincial gov- ernment. City council agreed to start the increase Oct. 1. "The employment picture is still excellent," said Mr. Chese- brough, "and all in all the wel- fare picture is pretty good." During August 677 persons re- ceived welfare assistance com- pared with 643 persons in July. However, 711 persons received assistance during August, 1964. The number of employable persons receiving welfare in August was 176 compared with 153 employable persons in July this year and 263 employable persons in August, 1964. Gross cost of welfare for Aug- ust was $29,916 compared with a $32,959 gross cost in July this year. Co-op Buying Interests PUC Interest in co-operative pur- chasing with other civic bodies was expressed last night by Public Utilities Commissioners. "If there is any advantage to be gained I think we should go along with it," said H. F. Bald- win, commission chairman. City council, the board of education and the separate school board have all agreed to co-operative purchasing pro- cedures. Officials feel that by buying bulk quantities, prices will be lower. J. B. Annand, commission manager, said he received a copy of the procedures and will pursue the matter with city purchasing agent William Crompton for discussion at the next commission meeting.

E. Rundle has returned home from a vacation, but he is making himself unavailable to confirm or deny a rumor he will run in the Nov. 8 federal elec- tion as an independent Conser- vative, in Ontario Riding. His brother, Thomas M. Rundle, a lawyer in the Attor- ney-General's department at Queen's Park, who yesterday said he "might have a comment to make" last night, also de- clined to comment today. Another brother, Dr. G. A. Rundle of Oshawa, said yester- day he hadn't heard the rumor but he "wouldn't be surprised" as his brother has "always had political ambitions'. Dr. J. E. Rundle is expected to "officially" return to duty as a city physician Monday, ac- cording to his staff, and an an- nouncement may be made at that time. CANDIDATES POLLED Candidates in Ontario Riding were polled this morning for their reaction should Dr. Rundle declare himself an independent candidate. Dr. Claude Vipond, Liberal candidate: "I think it is a splen- did thing for someone to come forward and give the Conserva- tives who are dissatisfied an op- portunity to protest against Mr. Starr's persistent support of the discredited and indecisive Mr. Diefenbaker. "T think this man represents a flood-tide of dissatisfaction among disgruntled Conserva- tives in this riding and across Canada." HODGES' REACTION Here is the reaction of Oliver Hodges, New Democratic Party candidate: "An unexpected Conservative candidate here is another mani-| City MD To Run As PC? DR. J. E. RUNDLE festation of their disunity. It is not at all surprising, when the Conservative party is sundered and shattered in the country. "Dr. Rundle and his backers probably want to split the Con- servative vote here too. I think this is an offshoot of the whole movement to get rid of Diefen- baker. "Our parliamentary system is a party system. Accomplish- ments in parliament depend on the party program rather than individual philosophy." 'NO COMMENT' Michael Starr, Progressive Conservative candidate in On- tario Riding for the seventh consecutive time and a sitting member for the last 18 years, said today he has no comment to make. "I have no comment to make about any of my candidates," said Mr. Starr. 'I stand on my form for the future." CAMPAIGN HQ ROUNDUP Candidates Michael Starr, Progressive Conservative candidate for On- tario Riding, returned home to- day from a speaking engage- ment last night in Sarnia where he addressed a crowd of more than 1,000. Today Mr. Starr will meet with committee workers and to- night he will be at Varsity Stadium in Toronto for the huge Conservative rally that kicks off the PC campaign in Ontario. In High Gear For Federal Election tunity which has been proved by Liberal legislation establishing family allowances, youth allow- ances, old age pensions, hospi- tal insurance and unemploy- ment insurance, MEDICARE NEXT Dr. Vipond said a national medicare plan is the next step in the structure of social secur- ity -- a structure of social security for all Canadians made economy. Dr. Vipond said today he is spending the day in Toronto discussing the campaign with provincial Liberal headquarters. And Oliver Hodges, the New Democratic Party candidate, was expected to continue his campaign of meeting as many people in the riding as pos- sible. VISIT FITTINGS This afternoon he visited with striking employees of the Fit- tings Company Limited. Mr. Starr will be in Napanee for a PC nomination' meeting Saturday for Prince Edward- Lennox constituency. He said the sitting member, Douglas Alenbrack, will likely receive the nomination. Dr. Vipond spoke to the On- tario Liberal Women's. Associa- tion last night in Adelaide House, YWCA. He told the mem- bers that the Liberal party 'Please Leave By Side Door' City bus drivers will be notified to direct passengers to leave buses by the side en- trances. ae Public Utilities Commissioners last night also approved Mayor Lyman Gifford's suggestion that Constable William Tane, who makes regular visits with school children to discuss safety, be asked to mention to children that it is safer to leave a bus by the side entrance. The action was taken follow- ing receipt of a letter from the Oshawa and District Labor Council. The council asked the commission to have drivers direct passengers to side doors stands for' equality of oppor- when leaving the bus. More Than 75,000 Now Eligible To Vote Here Nov. 8 record of the past and my plat- . possibile by an. expanding More than 75,000 persons are eligible to go to the polls in'On- tario Riding this election. Exact figures are not avail- able yet but the increase over the 1963 voter population is sure to be in excess of 5,000 A high 82.59 percent of the 70,365 eligible went to the polls two years ago. Voters lists are out to the printers now; reports the Whitby office of Riding Returning Of- ficer Roger G. Conant. Oshawa, with 149 polls, will have four revisal districts with two revisal agents: for each Revising officers, there will be four here, were appointed yesterday. Names will be. re- leased later. They will hold hearings Oct. 21, 22 and 23 for persons who want to have their names added to the lists. Voters lists are expected to be in the hands of the public by the middle of this month. Advance polls, there will also be four of these here, will be operating Oct. 30 and Noy. 1. Persons in the armed forces will vote between Nov. 1 and Nov. 6. If you live in an urban area-- in most cases a community of more than 5,000 population -- there are several steps to take if you think your name has in- correctly been left off the voters' list for the Nov. 8 federal election. Oct. 21, 22 and 23 you may appear at the court held by the revising officer to state why you are 'entitled to vote, lf you are unable to attend, you may ask another qualified elector, an employer or a blood relative to represent you at the court. Or you may telephone the re- turning officer who will send a revising agent to your home. This latter course requires the prospective voter to get in touch with the returning officer between Oct. 15 and 23. The re- vising agent will help him draft a formal application to have his name added. The revising agents are nomi- nated by the party which won the riding in the 1963 election and by the runner-up party. In each urban riding, two agents are appointed to each of the "revisal districts," usually 'em- bracing 35 polling divisions. The agent takes the com- ' pleted applications to a revising officer, who substitutes for the county court judge for the dis- strict and has quasi-judicial status. If satisfied a person' is en- titled to vote, the officer may add the name to the list. If he decides against, the officer must state the reasons in a registered letter to the applicant. In rural ridings, an enumer- ator appointed by the returning officer hears applications. from unlisted persons on Oct. 21. A qualified voter may still vote even if his name is not on the list of a rural riding. He must appear at the poll on elec- tion day and have a listed voter take an oath, vouching for him, and take an oath himself. Same i gE aa
