ISATURDAY, MAY 1, 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PACE THREE Kinsmen Club Opens Campaign For $10,000 Donations By City, Club, 'Rest by Canvass © The Kinsmen Club of Oshawa is © appealing today to sport fans and | Wic-minded citizens to join in its paign to raise $60,000 for the " purpose of erecting a "modern, . floodlit civic memorial stadium on { the grounds known as Kinsmen Park, immediately north of the Osh- | awa Arena. Active over the past three years ~ In providing recreational equipment and locations in various sections of ¢ the community, the Kinsmen Club . decided over a year ago to under- ¢ take the weighty job of heading © th. drive for a civic stadium. This project was undertaken following a review of sporting facilities in the ' city which showed a complete lack of dressing room accommodation. In addition, Oshawa has been without an enclosed stadium. Members of the club have worked fo: the past year considering plans and specifications and feel now that they are prepared to give the city a modern stadium equal to any in| t Dominion. The stadium will be large enough to accommodate all sports and will be equipped with floodlig: ts for night games. Present plans call for bleachers to seat 2,000 spectators, but additional seating capacity could be added at a later date, Another important feature of the proposed stadium will be the dress. ing rooms complete with showers and both public and player lava- tories. A small administration office is also provided for in the plans as well as an officials' change room. The dressing rooms will be equipped with six showers and be large enough to handle two full rugby teams. The complete installation will be enclosed by a 10-foot cement block wall with a broad, modern entrance way. The plans, which were drawn by the city eng 'eer's department, were checked by all Oshawa sporting or- ganizations at a public meeting at which the complete project was hail- ed as the "greatest thing in the his- tory of Oshawa sports". The plans were checked in detail and the lighting installation was explained by Jack Risebrough of the Oshawa Public Utilities, who has been con- gratulated on his efforts to equip the stadium with such fine facilities. The Kinsmen Club of Oshawa is { fikarting the drive off by pledging «20,000 to the fund. This money will be forthcoming partly from the Kinsmen projecets scheduled fro the next few months as well as from the Kinsmen service funds. The city of Oshawa has agreed to match the Kinsmen donation with another $10,000 and the balance of $40,000 will be raised by a public campaign. All sporting organizations and persons in the city and district will be approached to donate to this effort and the Kinsmen canvassers hope to meet with good results. Various sporting teams and clubs throughout the city have volunteer- ed their aid in raising the necessary money and getting the stadium built this year seems to be the main object in view. On the completion of the sta- dium, the committee plans on hold ing a gala opening ceremony and then turning the completed project over to the city to be operated on a non-profit basis for the benefit of the citizens of Oshawa and their sporting endeavours. - It is planned to have the stadium administered by a civic stadium committee rep- resenting all sports.

In the external affairs debate, Mr. Graydon held the spotlight, with statements such as these: "Canada's position should be made clear and her armed services should bear a reasonable relation- ship to our population and eco- nomic strength. It may well be in the extreme. for us to have let our forces to remain at the law figure of only 35,000.

Dr. Gauthier suggested that Brit ain and the United States establish naval and air bases In Greenland, Iceland and Newfoundland to ward off any attack from the Arctic.

It is planned to make tomorrow evening's service an entirely "Ki- wanis service", with members "of the club forming a male choir for the occasion,' Special speaker for the service will be Col. George Peacock, of To- ronto, an outstanding figure of the Salvation Army in Canada, who is himself a Kiwanian.

CSU Seamen Up In Week 'Thorold, Ont., May 1 -- (CP) -- Magistrate H. D. Hallett refused to reduce bail yesterday for 37 seamen and a free lance photographer who appeared before him on charges arising from last week's attack on the Canadian Steamship Lines col- lier Glenelg. The men, members of the Canad. ian Seamen's Union (T.L.C.), ap- peared in court here -manacled in pairs. Magistrate Hallett remanded them all one week. Bail remains at $2,500 despite plea by seamen's counsel Gordon Bates for a reduction to $250 each. Mr. Bates described the $2,500 figure as ridiculous. "That is the amount of bail one would ask for a desperate criminal," he declared. Hhe was interrupted at this point by hte judge who re- minded him that the right of bail is not automatic. New Cathedral Will Contain Chapel of Unity A chapel of unity tor use of all denominations and a Christian 'ser- vice centre will be features of the new cathedral buildings planned for Coventry, England. The visit of Dr. Healey Willan and his choir of St. Mary Magdalene to "St. George's Church here May 17, spon- sored by the Oshawa and District centre, Canadian College of Or- ganists, is in aid of the British Or- gan Restoration Fund, the purpose of which is to pay for the cathe- dral's organ. History of old jSt, Michaels, Co- ventry, the cathedral church, dates back some nine centuries. In 1043 Earl Leofric and Lady Godiva built a Norman priory church near the present site, and in 1100 this became the Cathedral of Coventry and Lichfield. In 1135 Ranulf, Earl of Chester, bestowed "the Chapel of St. Michael" -- a small Norman church -- upon the priory, and in 1300 the South Porch, still' existing, was added. From 1373-94 the present tower-- the only part to stand firm after the 1940 bombing--was built as the gift of a wealthy family of wool merchants, In 1451 Henry VI and Margaret of Anjou went in solemn procession to St. Michael's, and in 1475 Henry VII gave thanks here for Bosworth Field victory. In 1500 the Guild Chapels were added. The area around Coventry is rich in names and associations known ang revered throughout the Eng- lish-speaking world -- Warwick, Kennilworth, Rugby and Stratford- on-Avon, Coventry itself was fam- ous throughout the Middle Ages for its crafts guilds, and one of the re- commendations for the new Cathe dral is the inclusion of a small Cappers' chapel and room to pre- serve the connection with these city guilds. The replanning and re- building of the large bomb-damag= ed areas in the ancient city centre is now being undertaken, and the corporation of Coventry has invit- ed the church to occupy in the new city' the same central and domina- ition which it held in the i hy city is not | old. his new 20th century being planned round a town hall, but round a cathedral. Regarding the rebuilding commission's third term of reference, a minister of the free church is on the commission and there is free church represen- tation on the Reconstruction Fund now established. Fifteenth century stained glass of the old windows had been removed for preservation during the war and can be used to enrich the new interior. Present day craftsmen will be intterested=-in the commission's note that teams of really fine stone masons and carpenters will be needed for many rears, ag the actual standard of craftsmanship is well nigh as im=- portant as fine design. The commission's report con- cludes thus:--"Canterbury, Exeter, St. Paul's in London, and other an- cient Cathedrals sustained grevious damage in the recent war. In Co- ventry however the cathedral was utterly destroyed save for the' ex- ceptionally beautiful = tower and spire. That it should rise again from its ashes on the same hallow- ed spot, the-very centre of the new as of the old Coventry, is, we think the wish and expectation of many far beyond the diocesan boundar- jes. We hold that it is a national concern. that the destruction of Coventry should not be accepted as final. We believe that the help will be forthcoming which will ensure that it shall rise again in such beauty as man's creative' imagina- tion can devise 'ad majorem dei gloriam'," ry Wr. YT EEL ATR. PIR | view of the day when no matter f Planned by New mobile telephone equipment will be demonstrated at a special open house meeting planned for Monday night by the North Shore Radio Club. The meeting will be held at the Community Recreation Association building at 8 pm, The demonstration will be a pre- where a person is he is never out of touch with his office or home. There was a time when the tele- phone was a luxury in the home, but now it is almost a necessity. Now the public is to be offered the mobile telephone so that whenever they travel they are within calling distance. ; In this demonstration the audi- ence will actually see and be gble to sit in on the calls. There will be actual calls placed from tele-~ phones on the stage to a mobile | car cruising in the Oshawa dis- trict, and the audience will be able to hear everything as the party places his call through the opera- tor and the dialling of the car's number. This will be preceeded by an illustrated talk by a Bell Tele- Mobile Phone Display Radio Club phone engineer explaining the sys- tem and the equipment used to give this service. From all indications it will provide an unusually informa- tive insight into the mobile tele- phone. The North Shore Club executive feels. that the citizens of Oshawa would appreciate the opportunity learning the "how" of communica- tions. With this in view it has de- termined to make their hobby into a useful tool for the community. The radio amateur is, first of all, an enthusiast, who through study and practise has passed the gov- ernment tests and secured a license to operate his own transmitting station. He 'is assigned his own call letters by which he is known and recognized all over the world. The average reader with a short wave band on his radio set, has heard them calling one another all over the world. The amateur for the most pari constructs his own equip- ment, designing and redesigning at frequent intervals to keep pace with a science that is advancing in leaps and bounds.

The Ontario County Flying Club and the Junior Chamber of Commerce which are sponsoring the event, have an am- bitious program lined up and the event bids fair to be an even great- er success than last year. This Air Show, as in the past two | years, should prove to ke one of the Dominion's outstanding air events for 1948. It is being sponsored jolnt- ly by the Ontario County Flying Club and the newly formed Junior Chamber of Commerce, who are handling the promotional end of the show as their first major under- taking. The thrill packed air program, at present near completion, provides for numerous competitions with val- uable trophys going to the winners. Airobatics in different types of air- craft, parachute jumping, comedy acts, squadron formations by the la- test military. aircraft, and many other events as yet not definitely 'scheduled, help to make up a thrill- ingly interesting program. In addition fo these air activities, there will be on display a parade of family type aircraft and also, for inspection, one of the Trans-Canada Airlines planes. Whitby Driver Caught Speeding Had No License Charles Donald of Whitby was yesterday fined $10 and costs or 10 days on a charge of driving with- out a 1948 operator's license and $20 and costs or 10 days on a charge of speeding. Accused pleaded inno- cent to the latter count. Provincial Constable Gordon Keast testified he had followed Don- ald westward into Whitby April 19 at a sped of 55 miles per hour. The charge read "to wit 40 miles per hour" and accused wanted to know what to wit meant. "It means," explained Magistrate Frank Ebbs, "40 miles per hour." Donald said he was in the car business and he knew how many speedometers wear out, "even In 1947 cars" like the police cruiser. "It is not an accurate way to compute a | speed and issue a summons," he de- clared, "to just drive up behind a man and check him with your own speedometer." Accused claimed a measured strip and a stop watch were more accurate though not per- fect. When asked by the officer what speed he thought he was traveling, | in his own defence Donald testified he thought he was within the speed limit of the Town of Whitby. Con- stable Keast told the court there was no doubt in his mind about the Will End (ras Tax Up Compensation, Liberals Promise Newmarket, May 1 (CP)--Lifting of the three-cents-a- gallon gasoline tax, housing assistance through tax relief and increaséd old 'age pensions were pledged today by Farquhar Oliver, Ontario Liberal leader, in a statement of party policy. * In what was regarded as his keynote Ontario election speech 'prepared for delivery at the®---------- - North York Liberal convention he | legislation to aid mining munieipal« also said that if a Liberal govern- | ities, after consultation with the ment is elected June 7 it will in- crease workmen's compensation and hospital grants assist mines extend municipalities involved, "We will aid in establishment of and other. interests rural hydro establish a university | & northern Ontario university, com« in Northern Ontario and give the |Posed of colleges and schools in north cabinet representation.
