In this section, the outstanding event will be the safe tractor driving com- petition. Last year, a downpour of rain militated against the success of this spectacular contest, so the directors are hoping that it will be blessed with finer weather this The Oshawa Kiwanis Grain Club and the Oshawa Kiwanis Dairy Cattle Club will be holding their achievement days at the Fair, with many special a#ards offered to the boys in these clubs, as well as in the open Junior Farmer and Jun- jor Farm girls' classes.

BAKER THE D AILY TIMES-GAZE Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle ; TTE VOL. 10--No. 168 OSHAWA-WHITBY, THURSDAY, JULY 19, 1951 PAGE THREE All Ready To Stage Show At Bandshell The stage is set for the first CRA bandshell show of the summer sea- son, "Showboat--CRA" which will go before the footlights tomorrow night at 845 p.m. All tomorrow morning from early hours members of the CRA staff will be busy erect- ing a showboat facade which forms the setting of CRA's variety show. And tomorrow afternoon young singers, dancers and entertainers from the Oshawa playgrounds will have a final rehearsal on the shell tage. Producers Joan Lambert and Mae Dalby after a hectic two weeks of rehearsals express themselves as reasonably well satisfied that the show will provide good entertain- ment for the Memorial Park audi- ence. Certainly the 17 numbers which go to make up the 90-minute bill will be representative of a. the musical, dancing and dramatic ab- ility of Oshawa children. MC. of the show will be D'Arcy Smyth of the CRA summer staff and all the designing of scenery, costumes and preparatory work have been in the hands of CRA su- pervisors and youngsters from the Oshawa playgrounds. "Showboat--CRA," will be pre- lude to three additional bandshell shows from CRA on August 3, 17, and 24. Curtain time on Friday night is 8.45 p.m. Lower Grade Milk Plan Defended Seaforth (CP) Agriculture ister Kennedy Wednesday com- mented on an argument by a Lon- don dairy distributor that an an- nounced proposal to market milk with two per cent butterfat content in this province was a "pipe- dream." Mr. Kennedy, at the Progressive Conservative picnic here'said in an interview: "I would expect the dis- tributors to be against such a plan. It will mean a little work for them." He announced Monday that he favored proposals to market two per cent milk since it would be cheaper than the average 3.4 per cent which whole milk must now test for sale in Ontario. Film Showing At Bandshell A fair-sized crowd attended a showing of short films at the Band Stand in Memorial Park last night. The program was sponsored by Oshawa Film Council, whose presi- dent, Charles Dowton ran off the fine selection of films. Beginning with an Abbott and Costello comedy titled "Oysters and Muscles," which = drew a lot of laughs, the audience saw and par- ticipated in some American-produc- ed community sing-songs such as "Old MacDonald" and "Home on the Range", concluding with one by the National Film Board on "Alouette." The latter used a de- cidedly clever pictograph technique to get the song and its rhythm "across. ' Educational shorts by NFB such as "Gentleman Jekyll and Driver Hyde" and "Our Town is the World" were sugar-coated capsules which emphasized road courtesy and the something-more-than-tolerance that is needed so much in small towns as all over the world. Two color travelogues, "Sailing in Canada" and "Ecuador--Down Where the North Begins," the lat- ter produced by the American Com- mittee on Pan-American Relations, emphasized in a picturesque way our differing cultures, and brought the program to an Spjoyable close. Mr. Dowton expre his ap- preciation for the assistance of Ted Bathe of the Parks Department, and announced that another film program would be given next Wed- nesday night at the same time. r 3: Ei E.

Preparing for 1951 Oshawa Fair Pools Have Water Polo Innovation It was Water Polo night last night at Rotary and some 300 youngsters from Rotary and Pitson Road swimming pools thronged to Rotary Park to see a new innova- tion in CRA"s swimming program. With some local additions to the rules made necessary, by the inade- quate facilities of Rotary Pool, the game proved a big success with the crowd. In the boys' game, after an exciting tussle, Rotary squeezed out a victory by a score of 5-4; while in the girls' game Ritson blanked their opponents by a score of 13-0. In some preliminary races sche- duled as a try-out for the Ontario Amateur Swimming Championships in which youngsters from the Osh- awa pools are swimming in Graven- | DR. W. H.

A. Marsh, asked for de- tails of a suitable location and what type of building--permanent or temporary -- should be construc- ted. Its letter also asked for some information on the possibility of an ice rink for the coming winter and spoke of the eventual possibility of a swimming pool for youngsters. Without comment the Board pass- ed on the letter to Parks Supefin- tendent Ted Bathe for him to deal with possible location of the club- house.

From an International Refugee Organization camp in Aurich, Ger- many, Mrs. Erika Boricic and her two young children will come to 765 Oxford Street, Oshawa, to join her husband, Wladimir Boricic. A political refugee from Communistic Yugo-Slavia, Mr. Boricic was last year offered employment in the Dominion by the Canadian Min- try of Labour. One condition of his contract was that he had to prove his ability to support his family before they could join him. Wladimir made good and his .family is coming across the Atlantic on the IR.O.- chartered ship, the .S. Nelly, which is due to rock at Halifax today. Ocean transportation is be- ing provided free of charge to the Boricic family by the IR.O. When they boarded the ship ®hich was to take them to their new country at Bremerhaven, Germany, little Renate Boricic, who is two, carried her most valuable posses- sions--a spoon and a book--mute tokens of the hardships the family have been through. The Boricics' boy is named Detlef and he is aged 10. NO BED OF ROSES Coming from war-torn Europe with its appalling bomb damage, Mrs. Borocic is not going to find the 'housing situation in Oshawa a bed of roses. Her husband has a room at 765 Oxford Street in a house that already has a full com- pliment of D.P.'s, in addition to one English family. Occupants of the house are get- ting ready to give Mrs. Borocic a hearty welcome. The wooden build- ing, flanked on one side by the rail- way lines and on the other by a junk dump, echoes to a babel of different tongues. Visiting the house yesterday a reporter had to apart by world | converse in broken German to find out if Prau Borocic was going to arrive, PREPARING WELCOME "Ja," replied two of the house- wives, Mr. Borocic was out "arbiten" (working) but everybody was excite ed over the arrival of the family. Piles of wood are stacked ready for winter's fires, toys are placed on I the window sills and chickens. roam around in the intervals of provid- ing the household with eggs. Despite the housing problems the Borocics will face no political ter- rors in Canada from which they will have to flee. Cars and Bus In Collision Two cars and a bus were involved in an accident on Simcoe Street south at about 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. William L. Sunderland' of 439 Ritson Road South was pro= ceeding south on Simcoe, and stop- ped opposite No. 1285 to let a car which was travelling south on the west boulevard, back on to the pavement. A car driven by John A. Cardinal, 636 Carnegie Avenue, was follow= ing Sunderland's car, applied its breaks, hit the car ahead, and was in turn hit by a Gray Coach Lines bus driven by John Emes, 98 Rose Avenue, Toronto, following behind, Police said the bus was damaged in the front bumper, Cardinal's car suffered damage to grill and both fenders and the Sunderland car received some damage. All vehicles were insured.

It looked as if the board was "going to make" its allocated budget. C. R. Bailes reported that he had spoken to a horseowner about the recent controversy of using the race-track on a Sunday. The own- er had explained that the horse was being exercised although he knew it was against the rules, but the track could not be used for the two previous days. No more complaints had been received on the matter. "I think the matter has died a natural death," was Mr. Bathe's comment. Stables at the track were in good condition, COMING EVENTS Board members were "delighted" to receive a letter of praise from Mrs." Josephine Aldwinckle, who congratulated the board's staff for its work in cleaning up Lakeview Park.
