Volume of Building In Oshawa Was Slightly Off In March THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle 'OSHAWA VOL. 10--No, 78 OSHAWA-WHITBY, TUESDAY, APRIL 3, 1951 PAGE THREE Local Red Cross Plans Blood Donor Clinic During Month of May "Based on 1-15 of census popula- tion, Oshawa is asked for 300- bot- tles of whole blood once each month. This means there must be a donor enrolment of 2,500," declared Mrs. H. B. Knap at a meeting of the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society held at Adelaide House last Friday. Mrs. Knap, who is the organiz- ing director, Blood Donors' Service of the Canadian Red Cross Society, Ontario Division, stated that prem- ises must be found in Oshawa which will be available for three days each month which, allows for one day of preparation, one day for donation and one day for evacua- tion. The Canadian Red Cross Society has been appointed by the Minister of National Defence as the official agency for the procurement of blood and blood products for the Armed Forces. This renews a relationship which prevailed during the World War II, she said. Objective f.. 25,000 Bottles National Offick has outlined Can- J ad's commit: ts to the Depart- ment of Natignal Defence for 1951 as 10,000 bottles of plasma plus the necessary sterile administration sets and distilled water for the reconsti- tution of the dried blood plasma. In addition the Red Cross has set up an objective of 25,000 bottles of plasma as a stock-pile for Civil De- fence, 10,000 bottles of plasma for the Armed Forces and 25,000 bot- tles of plasma for Civil Defence re- quires the collection of 100,000 bot- tles of whole blood. The National Office has asked the Ontario Division Executive to accept the responsibility for the greater part, 60,000 bottles of whole blood. Accordingly the Ontario Division is asking certain cities and towns of over 10,000 population to organ- ize Blood Donor Panels. The sys- tem of collection will differ from that used during the war at which time Blood Clinics ran on a more or less continuous basis and prem- ises, equipment and staff were sim- larly continuously in action. Now, two Mobile Technical Teams, which are the responsibility of the Nat- fonal Office, will work out of Chor- ley Park Depot in Toronto and will hold regular clinics at 20 or 21 cen- Jires in western and eastern Ontar- .0. These teams are responsible for the actual taking of the donations, for the sereologican examination of the products and the making up of the sterile taking and administra- tion sets. Mrs. Knap stated that the local Branches are at Windsor, Chatham, London, Sarnia, St. Thomas, Strat- ford and Woodstock in Western Ontario, Ottawa, Pembroke, Peter- borough, Oshawa, Belleville, Brock- & L 2 ville, Cornwall, Kingston, Barrie, Toronto, Leaside and Lake- shore. It is not possible for the Mo- bile Teams to hold clinics at all these places immediately. Plan Clinic Here Some Branches are being sked to prepare an extensive enrolment of donors the last two weeks in April, 16 to 30, and be ready for clinics in May, Others will be asked to en- rol donors in September for Mobiles in October. Oshawa will come in this first category and will have the responsibility of providing, 1. Do- nor 'Panel; 2. Administration, and call-up of donors; 3. A place to hoki the clinic; 4. Volunteer women to operate clinic in conjunction with mobile technical team. A clinic re- quires premises providing reception and cloak room, technician's office, space for one or two typists, donor room to accommodate 10 beds, rest rooms to accommodate 10 beds, kit- chen, men's and women's wash- rooms, refreshment room where about 20 can be served at one time. The donor beds, rest beds, blan- kets, pillows-and all technical equip- ment, kitchen equipment, dishes, filing cabinets, chairs and other furnishings gre the responsibility of the Branch. Volunteer personnel will be required as follows, recep- tionists, waitresses, typists, one loeal physician, graduate nurses and good practical nurses. Donors must be between the ages of 18 and 65 and must be in good health and should give one pint of blood twice or three times each year. No dietary restric- tions are now necessary on the part of the donor. Speedy Organization Needed The first donation day will be sometime in May, thus a very size- able job must be done in a very short time. The local Branch receiv- ed its initial instructions on March 30, so the tremendous task of or- ganizing commences from that late date. An organization is in pro- cess of development. A Blood Do- nor committee will be formed, the Chairman of which will likely be the organizer of the campaign for en- rolment of donors. This campaign | is planned for April 16 to 30 and a | panel secreeary must be found to keep all records and send out no- tices to donors. This secretary will be assisted by four or five women to lighten the telephone calls nec- essary in advance of the visit of the Mobile Clinic. Orillia, | H.M.C.S.

On Saturday last at 2:10 p.m. 96 local Odd Fellows boarded three buses bound for Niagara Falls, N.Y., among these were the degree team headed by brother Coakwell and after a check up to make sure all were present they left for the long trip, with promise of nice weather. At Toronto it clouded over and looked like it might rain but a few niles out of the city the sun broke through again and shined most of the time during the remainder of the trip. The buses pulled up at Clans Coffee Shop, about the half way mark, so that the brothers could refresh themselves and it was remarkable how such a small place could look after so large a crowd in so short a time. But in 15 minutes all were served and started again on the next leg of the trip. They were met at the border by Brother Boger of the Niagara Falls, N.Y, Lodge No. 81, and a police escort took them over the border which made the majority of the brothers feel quite important. They were taken direct to Lodge Hall, No. 81, situated at 924 South Ave. Niagara Falls, N.Y. where a lovely roast beef dinner, with all the trim- mings was served by the Riverdale Rebecca © Lodge, No. 195, ' ladies. After eating such lovely beef all agreed that there might be some- thing in the rumour that all the best beef from Canada goes to the States, for it 'was sure prime stuff that was served. The lady in charge, Mrs. McLaren, is to be com- mended on the way and speed with which the meal was served. About 350 were served in short order and everything was piping hot, which is quite an accomplishment. After dinner the local brothers had about an hour to see the sights before returning to the lodge hall to get ready for the degree and if they had more money and any way JM getting things back, the city fyould have done considerable busi- ness during their short visit. One of the highlights was the presentation of a lovely silk Union Coming Events THREE-ACT COMEDY, "GRAPE- vine' by Hampton Community Players, at Albert Street: United Church, Wednesday, April 4th, 8| o'clock, sponsored Ly Challengers | ¢ Group W.A.

After the lodge closed the brothers were all taken out to a lovely lunch that was prepared by the men themselves, and consisted of scads of all kinds of sandwiches, spanish onions, pickles, cheese and crackers, etc., etc., all of which dis- appeared like magic when the 330 odd brothers got busy on them. Shortly after 1:00 p.m. the Osh- awa Brothers all boarded the buses for the homeward trip and at the border were all told to get off the bus and go through cus- toms, while the buses were searched for contraband, as everything was in order they were soon on their way home." Under the leadership of brothers George and Mell Wotton a lively sing-song was kept going most of the way home. The 17 candidates to receive the Third Degree Saturday night were: John E. Powell, Albert Post, Eugene Ingram of Niagara Lodge No. 81, Thos. Page, Wm. T. Andersop of Bell Rose Lodge No. 129, as.

Brother Brough gave a very interesting talk on his visit to Sunnyside Lodge last Wednesday evening. 500 MOTORS FOR CANADA The Mayor of Coventry and other distinguished guests witnessed the completion and packing of the 3,- 000,000th fractional h.p. motor made in the British Thomson Houston's | Coventry works.

Detroit, April 2---(AP) -- The auto industry may this year dem- | onstrate its ability simultaneously 8 produce both guns and civilian goods. | The conviction is growing in in- | dustry quarters that this can be | done. Most car makers are shap- ing their planning on that basis. The belief grows from the fact that since the second world war the industry's output capacity has been almost doubled. In one month last year the car makers built almost 900,000 cars and trucks. And they still had some spare capacity. Defence stockpiling, going on for months, hasn't slowed down civilian production. By the time the auto industry is ready to roll out tanks, aircraft engines and other war goods the stockpiles should be huge, High-level production of war ma- terial will not be reached in the auto industry until some time next year. Some industry analysts be- lieve there will be enough raw stuff by that time for both civilian cars and trucks and whatever the de- fence program may need. Nobody close to the auto industry is disposed to minimize the job ahead. Already assigned to the auto makers are contracts for arms | aggregating more than $5,000,000,- 000. In the last war they built $29,- 000,000,000 worth. They did it on short notice fol- lowing Pearl Harbor, with few ex- tra, manufacturing facilities Now they have greatly expanded their normal facilities, and have avail- able most of the extra factory space set up for the latter part of the war. More is being provided. Unless a manpower shortage de- velops it seems unlikely there will be any full stoppage of civilian out put. This year's first-quarter saw near- ly 2,000,000. vehicles produced. Indi- cations are that the factories will do #Mmost as well in the forthcom- ing quarter.

Mr. Allen congratulated Mr. | Turney and his executive on the splendid work they had done dur- ing the past year and expressed the hope that the Oshawa Life Underwriters' Association would continue its fine showing made during the past year.

Jury Returns True Bills At Cobourg Cobourg, April 3--A true bill was returned yesterday in the case of Ralph Carey, 24-year-old Port Hope undertaker, charged with raping a young Port Hope woman. The case will proceed today before Chief Jus- tice J. C. McRuer. Medical evidence was given yes- terday by Dr. E. A. Hunt of Port Hope Yin said the victim, a mar- ried woman, had bruises to her nose, left temple, on the side of the right eye, over the left eye, upper and lower lips, behind the right ear, neck, right shoulder, left fore- arm and upper arm, her back, right thigh, below the right knee and on her left foot. The grand jury also returned true bills in the motor manslaughter and dangerous driving case of Gil- bert Garbutt, of London. Garbutt was the driver of an auto which collided head-on with a sec- ond auto, driven by Gordon White of Toronto, near the east brow of the Prestonvale Hill, east of Osh- awa, on the morning of September 2, 1950. As a result of the accident, Mrs. Winnifred White, 74, of To- ronto, lost her life. Gordon White, her grandson, suffered severe head injuries while Kenneth Hall of Lon- don, who was a passenger in the Garbutt vehicle, sustained facial cuts and concussion. . Ten cases are on the civil list of which one is a jury action. Four divorce actions are among the re- maining nine cases. The jury action is a claim for $5,000 brought by Bertha Crowhurst of Port Hope against Colonial Coach Lines, arising out of the ac- cident which occurred in September of 1949 when a Colonial bus left the road near Newtonville and up- set in a creek. Mrs. Crowhurst sus- tained a broken wrist and other injuries. The defence is that the bus accident was caused by the actions of a car going in the op- posite direction and driven by George Langevin of Montreal. Estate Sues . A $15,000 damage action is brought by Pearl Hartford of Col~ borne, administratrix of the estate of Clifford Hartford, against Ever- ett Newman of Brighton. Plaintiff alleges that Clifford Hartford had been a passenger in a car driven by Stanley Clarke who had stopped in front of his house to let him out and that when Hartford emerged from the car he was struck by an- other automobile driven by the de- fendant.

To Increase Strength of Cadet Corps Greater emphasis on national de- fence in this country is reflected in increases granted in the over-all quotas of cadet corps in central command. A number of corps in this district are eligible to add to their numbers from March of this year. Supplementary nominal rolls in duplicate will be submitted to the Chief Cadet Instructor. At the same time slates of officers may be sub- mitted for possible revision. No change has been indicated for strengths of Oshawa Corps as well as that of Port Perry High School which will be increased to a total of 90 and that of Uxbridge to 80.

Burnet, Navigation Opens Earlier Than Usual 16 New Dw Dwellings Valued At $104,200 Started In Month Value of applications for building permits, which was high in the first 15 days of March, fell off somewhat in the final half of the month. Total for the month was $130,350, about $1,600 under the total for March a year ago. Almost continuous rainfall dure ing the last 15 days of the month was blamed in part for the fact that very few builders wanted to undertake construction of new buildings. Nevertheless six new homes were started with a total value of about $40,700. That meant that during the whole month 18 new homes were begun with a total estimated value of $104,200. No commercial buildings were begun during the month although some inmor alterations were made in the business section or the city.
