ea Family counselling? It is a subject for knowledgeable peo- ple trained to mend broken families. That, along with the opera- tional structure of a counsel- ling service, was outlined, last night to more than 150 people at the annual meeting of the Children's Aid Society of On- tario County and Oshawa. A panel of four talked about their phases of work in the field of guidance and indicated what Oshawa will need: or can Oshawa Doctor CAS President Dr. R. D. W. Guselle, Osh- awa, was elected last night as president of the Ontario County and Oshawa Children's Aid Society. He succeeds Mrs. R. E. Sims, Whitby, president for the last three years. Executive members of the society branch elected at its annual meeting were: Reeve John Dancey, Cannington, first vice-president; Mrs. W. G. Lawson, Pickering, second vice-president; Mrs. H. F. Daw, Ashburn, secretary; Rob- ert Bryden, Oshawa, treasurer.

At least two main things are essentially tied into running a a professionally - trained staff and joint co-operation amongst community services, one panel- ist, Mrs. E. C. Petitjean, said.

She said it would need to work closely with services like the public welfare department and public health nurses. RISK NOTED Vincent Castellano, of Belleville's family counsel- ling service, said that to leave counselling to untrained, un- qualified people would be tak- ing a risk with people's lives.

Director Barnard Lewis told more than 150 people the group is unable to effect major changes at the Centre Street building without "a municipal clearance and our program is suffering as a result." The building is owned jointly by the city and Ontario County and by agreement the Society uses it. Mr. Lewis said he hoped the three parties could get together in the 'near fu- ture" on the matter of "office accommodation for our in- creasing staff." Outgoing president Mrs. R. E. Sims, Whitby, felt the same way. "In my opinion our most immediate need is for a new d for ling? Judge T. M. Moore, senior associate judge with the juve- nile and family court, .

"If after the first warning the requirements are not met," said Dr. Watt, "legal action will be taken."' A fine of up to $50 may be imposed on those convicted of bylaw offences. Dr. Watt said the inspectors will go to different sections of the city at unknown times with no advance warning so a small staff can cover the entire city. REQUIREMENTS Requirements of the bylaw are: --garbage must be drained of all liquids, or securely wrap- ped and placed in a proper receptacle; --receptacles must be metal or plastic, be tightly covered Library Studies History Project The McLaughlin Public Library board accepted a mo- tion last night to study the pos- sibility of compiling an up-to- date history of Oshawa as a centennial project. A history of the city was produced by the late Dr. T. E. Kaiser of the library board which is now out of print. "If we can sponsor a_his- tory of Oshawa as a centennial project, it will be a _ great thing for Oshawa and particu- larly the young people who are continually looking for this kind of information," said a mem- der of the board. and oil drums must not be used; --cartons, crates and sheet paper must be knocked flat and tied in bundles.

DAY NURSERY Mr. Lewis said there is a strong demand for the revival of a day nursery to serve the area. "Whether we believe moth- ers should be working or not-- many of them are -- and the facility of a day nursery is something that in my opinion would help improve the qual- ity of child care, not only in Oshawa, but in Ajax, Picker- ing Township and Whitby areas as well." He said he understood a day nursery was established in the area during the Second. World War but it ceased operations in 1945. Mr. Lewis said the Society has concluded its first year of operating under the New Child Welfare Act and find that the demands for "our services have risen dramatically in the sphere of child protection and child care."

"This increase taxed our staff to the limit and 'in this area, too, we will have to in- crease staff," Mr. Lewis said. The Society, operating last year with a total revenue of $387,970, spent $345,166 on child care and another $73,314 for services to families and chil- dren in their own homes and unmarried parents, divorce and family allowance reports. A statistical release from the |Society shows how the burden increased last year over 1965. Children out of care of the Society numbered 249 in 1965, compared to 300 in 1966; chil- dren out of care by adoption, 127 in 1965 and 148 last year; children out of care by being returned to parents, 83 to 148; unmarried mothers (new cases), from 150 to 176; chil- dren into care of the Society, a slight increase from 293 to 301 over the year. LABOR CHAIRMAN Albert V. Walker, MPP for Oshawa riding, an- nounced today he has been elected chairman of the Ontario Legislature's stand- ing committee on labor. The committee reviews all new legislation which is presented by the depart- ment of labor. Mr. Walker Said anyone interested in presenting opinions on new legislation can appear be- fore this all-party labor committee. The Oshawa riding MPP has also been appointed a member of the standing committees on pri- vate bills, government com- missions, agricultural and 113,307 from 86,812 the year before. food, legal bills and muni- cipal affairs. Non-Smokers Dr. A. E. King, an Oshawa physician, says smoking causes lung, lip and tongue cancer, heart disease, ulcers and _af- fects the premature birth of babies and causes a loss of keen mentality. Moreover, he told an audience at Kendalwood Seventh-day Ad- ventist Church, that each cig- aret takes 11 minutes off a heavy smoker's life. He was lecturing during the "Com- munity Program for Better Liv- ing" series. "Studies have shown that two months of smoking two packs of cigarets a day will produce the equivalent of one cup of tar- like substance containing 500 different properties -- 16 of which are cancer producing properties,"' said Dr. King. He said Canadians smoke 41 Live Longer, Physician Tells Audience billion cigarets, and 356 million cigars per year from a market offerig 100 different brands. Dr. King also said heavy smokers die, on an average, nine to 11 years earlier than non-smokers and heart disease is two and one half times more prevalent in smokers than cig- aret abstainers. FEEL BETTER The doctor said those who stop smoking could be ensured of a greater life expectancy and fee] better "inside and out'. He added that not having smoked for a year the death rate of a person would be less than one half of that of continued smokers. "In every 100 cases of lung 'jeancer, fewer than five will sur- vive five years," said Dr. King. BOARD OF CONTROL... Civic Square Decision Due Soon A decision on the proposed Wednesday's board of control was $1.7 million. The latest esti- .. - AWAITS CAPITAL BUDGET struction of a new police build- civic square complex and a new police building may be made next Wednesday by board of control. The board met yesterday to determine priorities and financ- ing methods should the projects be approved. A decision on the matter is being delayed until board of control is presented with the city's capital forecast. City treasurer Frank Markson said he expects to submit the capital budget of city depart- ments and commissions at next meeting. He told the board $1 million had been set aside in the 1965 budget for the new city hall and $600,000 had been placed in the 1968. capital budget for a new police building. His opinion was that city council should proceed with civic square complex as soon as possible. A longer delay will only increase the cost of the project, he said. $2.5 MILLION Original estimated cost of the civic square complex in 1965 mates place a $2.5 million price tag on the project, exclusive of maintenance and_ furnishing costs. ° Mayor Ernest Marks said the civic square complex was a problem inherited from the previous council. He said there were things he didn't like about the proposed project but a de- cision had to be made. Con. Margaret Shaw blamed the 1965-66 council for '"'why the board of control has such a mess." She said she favored the con- ing first, "I've never seen a crowded corner in city hall as there is in the police building," she said. POLICE PLANS _Con. Ralph Jones said pre liminary sketches and archi- tectural. drawings of a new police building would take some time to prepare. If located on city-owned land, the police building could cost an estimated $750,000. It would cost another $250,000 to buy property to locate it elsewhere, estimated Con. Jones. WHITBY (Staff) -- Two men who pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm in connec- tion with the Dec, 18 death of a Kitchener man, today were given jail terms by Justice Campbell Grant of the Supreme 23, of Peterborough was sentenced to 18 months definite and 12 months indefinite in reform- atory and Jack Olliffe, 28, of 232 Oshawa Blvd. S., was sen- tenced to 12 months definite and 12 months indefinite in re- formatory. They had been on trial Mon- day and Tuesday for non-capi- tal murder but the charges were dropped and they pleaded guilty to the reduced charge. Charges were laid after Arnold Bilitz, 23, died nine days after being beaten at a party in Oshawa. A pathologist said Bilitz died from poisoning caused by a ruptured bowel. Testimony showed that both Olliffe and Rice were seen fighting with Bilitz during the drinking party. The three men were members of _ Satan's Choice Motorcycle Club. Olliffe was described as sergeant-at- arms of the club. Rice had four previous con- victions, Ofllife had one. In sentencing, Justice Grant said they were fortunate the crown did not have enough evi- dence to prove who did the kicking which led to Bilitz's death. He said he took into con- sideration that Bilitz was drink- ing and very provocative, "but I cannot overlook the fact he was so drunk he could not in any circumstances have been any threat to either of you". $41,352 Damages Awarded Widow WHITBY (Staff) -- Two men who accidentally shot and kill- ed an Oshawa man while deer- hunting were "trigger-happy", said Supreme Court judge Mr. Justice Grant yesterday. He awarded a total of $41,352 dam- ages to the widow, Mrs. Doris Patricia Shortt, of 1195 Wecker Dr. The judge directed that $2,000 of this go to Mrs. Shortt's daughter, Charlane, 20, the couple's only child under 21. The accident happened north of Huntsville on Nov. 15, 1965. Donald John Shortt, a General Motors employee, was shot in the hand and abdomen and died Nov. 21. He was 49. Mr. Justice Grant found the defendants, Downsview and Albert George Hewey, of Port Credit, negli- gent, They thought Mr. Shortt was a deer and shot "without éxercising any degree of cau- tion whatever", said the judge. Mrs. Doris Shortt said her husband worked for GM for Surplus Noted At Auditorium Oshawa Civic Auditorium fin- ished its 1966 operation with a surplus of $7,999, the second in its two full years of operation. Total revenue was $176,404 and expenses, $168,405. In 1965, the auditorium made $131,653 and had $124,225 expenses. William Kurelo said the sur- plus could be attributed to the good crowds at junior "A" hockey games. Total paid attendance was 249,888, up 26,694 over 1965. Junior "A" hockey was most popular with 116,044 coming out. Next popular were special events and public skating. Mr. Kurelo said, in his year- end report, that with about 2,500 per week attending non- paying events, total attendance was about 390,000. Since opening in December, 1964, 715-086 used the auditor- ium. Highest of the operating ex- penses in 1966 were salaries.

He did not smoke, drink, or entertain, and his health was good, she said. NO TRAINING She had married young and had never been employed, she said. She had no training or skill. After her husband's death she had started to take a pro- fessional course but had to give it up because of bad health. Mrs. Shortt told the court that her husband went to their cot- tage on Bay Lake on Nov. 15 to get some dentures he had left there. He also planned to do some hunting. She saw him in hospital after the accident pain. walking up a rough private road, Emsdale Lake Road, about 6.45 a.m. and saw an ob- ject move on the crest of the hill. Hewey said: "What's that?" Continued Mr. Hall: "It swung round and a patch of white showed up. It gave a snorting sound. We loaded our guns and fired, Then we heard a sound we knew was a man's voice." SKY OVERCAST Mr. Hall ran back to get his car and they rushed Mr. Shortt to hospital. He had been right on the deer-run when he was shot, said Mr. Hall, who said he had been hunting for over 35 years in that area. The sky was heavily overcast and the light conditions were bad that day, he stated. Hewey gave a similar account of the accident. Summing up, Mr. Justice Grant said he was "astounded" that two experienced hunters fired along a road and without being able to see what they were shooting at. He decided there was no con- tributory negligence on the de- ceased's part and awarded the plaintiff damages and costs.

The six municipalities within the planning area will have a total. population in 1986 of 235,000. In 2016, 50 years from now, they will have 530,000 persons within their boundaries, That |will be about the capacity the area could comfortably hold. The regional planning. board made the study for the Ontario Water Resources Commission which in turn is making a water supply and pollution con- trol study of the region includ- ing Oshawa, Whitby, Whitby and East Whitby Townships, Bowmanville and Darlington. The OWRC study will deter- mine servicing needs for the next 50 years based upon a forecast of population and land use. That's where stepped in. The OWRC asked director William McAdams and _ his planning staff to prepare popu- lation figures so that the com- jmission could devise needs in |the area for the next 50 years. CO-ORDINATION In preparing the study, 'the planning board required the close co-ordination of all six municipalities in order to know how the land is going to be used.

The official plan will deter- mine land use. In other words, by designating certain areas within its boundaries for speci- {fic use--residential, industrial, |parks--a scheme for the whole area can be developed. | By knowing, for instance, what sections of the total acre- age in the region are set aside |for residential development, the planning board can assess the |potential. population growth. Mr: McAdams has devised a simple formula to determine jthis. Under this formula, popu- lation capacity can be broadly \figured by taking the number |of acres, establishing its dens- lity and multiplying the two. | Similarly,» by dividing the jdensity into the population of ja given area, he can determine jthe land required. |20 PER ACRE Mr. McAdams arrived at the population figure of 530,000 in |50 years by taking a density of }20 persons per acre. He sug- gests this number. would achieve 'total density." Why is it important to fore- |cast population growth? | The planning director hinted that by helping determine what servicing is required it will save taxpayer dollars. By knowing that several thousands will be living in the northwest of the area, works departments can determine, somewhat in ad- vance, how many storm sew- ers, gutters, roads and other essential services, will be re- quired, Cash Advance From City Keeps Planners Working situation, and it gave him an advane, to be subtracted from its portion of the 1967 budget. The COJPB operates from funds allocated by each of the six participating municipalities and if it runs out of money it must, in principle, wait until all the municipal budgets are struck. And, if the board runs out of budgets come out, they cannot 1}meet simple expenses. Besides, the corporation is authorized to borrow money. Therefore, he appealed to board members to arrange a system whereby the COJPB would receive an advance from a different municipality each year to keep it liquid. Date Change Suggested The.Oshawa Folk Festival and the Oshawa Centennial Co- ordinating Committee are at issue over a parade date, Expecting to sponsor the Folk Festival parade, providing the city approves a requested grant, the centennial committee de- cided, at a meeting last night, to recommend to the Folk Fes- tival that the annual parade, nearing its fourth year, be held Saturday, June 24, one week prior to the July 1 Dominion Day holiday. "They're not going to get it changed," said Mrs. J. A. Ald- winckle, president of the Folk Festival today. "This is the biggest year in Canada's his- tory so far and her birthday would fall flat as a pancake if the parade isn't held July 1." Mrs. Aldwinckle said if people in Oshawa feel strongly enough about celebrating Canada's For Folk Festival Parade they will stay home on the July 1 holiday weekend. At the centennial meeting last night at city hall, committee members expressed desire to set the parade date earlier be- cause many citizens leave for their cottages on the July 1 weekend, "Some people would change Christmas Day if it suited them," said Mrs, Aldwinckle to- day. "'The ethnic groups go to a lot of work and expénse for this day, so it will be on a meaningful day." Jack Mann, manager of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, said last night municipal em- ployees will not be working Friday prior to Dominion Day and will not likely be in town to observe the parade which will be organized by the Oshawa Jaycees. Mr. Mann also said the Ontario Regiment is not likely to be in Oshawa because of oute 100th birthday with a parade womens' groups in Oshawa, looks on. Committee chair- man A. H.
