Swimming Pool Constructed At Valleyview Park The sandbox at ¥ leyview Play- ground was an im t site last Wednesday, when a up of chil- dren busily engaged themselves in the construction of a miniature playground. In one corner, a huge swimming pool was dug by Rickie and Robbie Benson, Dougie Man- uel, and Peter Conner. A wooden board, inserted under the sand, formed the bottom, and thanks to several trips by Bob Dingman (with.an old tin can) to the drink- ing fountain, the pool was filled. Green weeds and branches from bushes 'formed shady trees. Not far from the pool was the play- ground, where ' Barbara Conner had transformed a small flat piece of wood into a slide and set up swing standards. Popsicle sticks formed shaky teeter-totters. In the cardboard club-house, a small sec- tion was roped off with heavy string to serve a: a boxing ring. HARMONY BACKWARD PARTY Contrasting greazly with these quiet, busy youngsters were those who participated in Harmony Park's "Backward Party" last Thursday.

Gary Chal- lise and Betty Hoskin were voted King and Queen, and the Neigh- borhood Association of Harmony Park donated prizes to those judg- ed as winners by Ron Collins and Bob McDonald. To heighten the hilarity, all races took place backwards. Boys, 9 and 10 years: 1. Dennis King; 2. Gary Challise; 3. David McGill; 6 and 7 years--1. John Walkhouse; 2, Gary Hoskin; 3. Alan Markie.

Band concert nights at the Mec- Laughlin Bandshell always find large numbers fo small children among the crowd. As a reward for their quiet good-behaviour and at- tentiveness they had a special num- ber played in their honor by the Oshawa Civic and Regimental Band last night. "Pop Goes the Weasel" was the children's item and it was skilfully interwoven with such other juven- ile favorites as "Here We Come Ga- thering Nuts In' May." Feet-tapping youngsters were highly delighted with their treat. "We always get a large number of children for these concerts and it really remarkable how atten- tive they are and how keenly they listen," said M. McIntyre Hood, master of ceremonies, for the even- ing, It was announced the bands- men are taking two weeks' off and in three weeks time. Last night's concert displayed to the full the versatility of Oshawa's outstanding military: band. Range of the programme was from sacred music through a symphonic move- ment to Fibich's "Poem" which is more familiarly known as the "Moonlight Madonna." Most outstanding piece of the evening was undoubtedly the first movement of I'rane Schubert's "Un- finished Symphony"--a rhythmic masterpiece in ®auted tones as play- ed by the band. There is a suppo- sition that Schubert never finished the symphony because the first and second movements just could not be equalled in the unwritten third and listeners, enjoying the cool of the evening, were inclined to agree with that theory last night. "Machine Gun Guards" was the opening march of the programme and the pen of English composer Kenneth J. Alford provided the band with its waltz, "Thoughts." Introducing two young bandsmen for a duet Mr. Hood said the band was particularly lucky in the num- bers of young musicians who came along well trained from the Boys' Band. "As long as we have such talent the band has no need to worry about the future," commented Mr. Hood as youthful Musicians R. Wal- ker and J. Hazelton stepped for- ward to play, in perfect time and harmony, a cornet duet entitled "Playmates" by J. A. Greenwood. Vocal solos were rendered by Miss Gwen Wilson who is the soloist of King Street United Church. She was accompanied on the piano in four items by Wallace Young, su- pervisor of music for Oshawa schools. The solos were "Vilia" from Lehar's "Merry Widow," "Thine Alone" by Victor Herbert, "A Brown Bird Singing" by Hadyn Wood and "I Walked Today Where Jesus Walked" by O'Hara. ' A year ago the band was presen- ted with a set of chimes by Col. R. S. McLaughlin and the audience was given an opportunity of hearing them played in a solo in A. Ketel- by's "Bells Across the Meadow." Chime player was Musician Chester A. Follest.

Great Versatility Of Oshawa's Band Shown At Bandshell 'Concert Herold's rousing "Zampa" and Broadbent's hymn "Lavinia" closed the programme.

The department announced that 11 arrests have been made. Director J. Edgar Hoover of the Federal Bureau of Investigation said those arrested have been ac-] tive in Communist party work, largely in California. The new move against party leaders followed .the arrests of 17 eastern seaboard Communists last month, Playgrounds |See Unusual Incidents Occupants of Thornton's Corners playground were greatly startled to see a cow gallop into their midst. While most of the children stared in horror, two brave, quick-thinking youngsters, Lloyd Hircock, aged 10, and John Cummins, 9, grabbed the girls' skipping rope which had fal- len unnoticed to the ground, and formed a lasso. Lloyd, flourishing the lasso, set off after the animal, his chum closely following, After several minutes, the animal was captured and led quietly home.

Jackman Trophy for making the greatest improve- ment in the appearance of the school and grounds during the year ended June 30, 1951. This was an- nounced by John F. Clark, Secre- tary of the Ontario Horticultural Association, the sponsors of the Provincial Rural School Improve- ment Competitions, Teacher at this school was Miss Roberta Brooks. ; Placing second in the competi- tion and winner of the Hon. P. M. Dewan Trophy was S.8. No. 17, Oro Township in Simcoe County, where the teacher was Miss Laura Volpe. Placing third and fourth respec- tively were USS No. 6, Elderslie and Sullivan Townships, in Bruce Coun- ty and S.S. No. 5 Normanby Town- ship in Grey County. There Schools won the T. Eaton Co., Ltd., prizes. Another Grey County School, S.S. No. 1, Derby Township placed fifth, while S.8. No. 4 Crowland Township in Welland County was sixth, These two schools were awarded the Ontario Horticultural Association prizes, Commenting on the competition, Mr. Clark pointed out that it is a final amongst the winners of the County or School Inspectorate School Ground Improvement Com- petition. While there were eight entries in the Provincial Competi- tion, there were 250 schools entered in the local competition. This showed the very keen interest in the matter of school ground im- provement. He states that the good appear- ance of these schools is also an in- dication of the interest displayed by the School Boards, teachers, and pupils in many parts of the Prov~ ~~» Comnetition was close among , the top-ranking schools, with only { one noint between the first two en- tries. When should a family borrow A family should borrow only when a loan is the best solution to a money problem. For example, to pay old debts, medical expenses, taxes, fuel, education, car or home repairs. Loans for these reasons are not inflationary, for the money is not used to buy goods in short supply or increase indebtedness. SOLVING MONEY PROBLEMS At HFC--Household Finance--we believe a family should borrow only when, by careful planning, the money problem can be re- solved, and the loan repaid in an orderly manner. When a family borrows under these circumstances, it is simply "'renting" money on terms it can afford. At HFC you may borrow $50, $250, $500 or more on your signature, without bankable security.

LOANS TO BUY CONSUMER GOODS SUBJECT TO CONSUMER CREDIT REGULATIONS N AP PEFA ATR) AR Road Site Need For Schools Foresees Future Education Body A new 10-room school is likely to be built on Wilson Road South to meet the needs of the eastern section of the city. At a meeting of the Board of Education held yester- day it was reported that within five years there would be 550 pupils in that area. A site for this school was purchased recently by the Board. Inspector T. R. McEwen raised the matter of a new school and at the end of a long discussion was asked to look into plans for the building of a 10-room school plus home economic section, manual training and a primary kindergarten. "Smaller schools and plenty ofé#- : them" was a term used by E. A. Lovell, chairman of the building committee, and it seemed to sum up feelings of members. SUGGESTS COST $375,000 Illustrating his remarks by the use of a ma, Inspector McEwen proposed that the school should have about 14 classrooms and other accommodations totalling 26,600 square feet. At the current building price of $10 to the square foot that would bring the price to $266,000 plus another $25,000 for fees and equipment. 'Total price he esti- mated would be $375,000. "Oh," gasped members when they heard the figure. Mr. McEwen re- joined members at the table and they all worked out figures for the school. They finally got the price to below the $300,000 mark for a 14 classroom school before deciding that building was too large. Mr. McEwen explained that the school would take care of children from King, Ritson and Harmony schools and from a survey made by his de- partment it was estimated that within five years there would be 550 pupils at the new school. FAVORS SMALLER SCHOOLS Proposing smaller schools and more of them, Mr, Lovell said that various areas of Oshawa were being developed rapidly. It was proposed to build 250 houses in the area south of Dr. Brown's home. If big schools, such as Centre Street School, were built pupils would have to be brought in to them, for "these days rgbody thinks of walking more than two blocks." Mrs. W. R. Elliott did not like schools that were too big but she thought that an eight-classroom school, which had been mooted, was a little too small for efficient organization. "I estimate that a 10-classroom school at Wilson Road, plus econo- mics, manual section and kinder- garten, would be filled within two years," said Mr. McEwen. "If we could fill it within three years it would be O.K. but we don't want to go too far ahead," cautioned Mr. Lovell. "If there was tod much big money floating around it was likely that there would not be a school at all but "something like the existing conditions at Rox- burgh." MORE SCHOOLS COMING Mrs. B. C. Colpus suggested that more schools would have to go up in future and if the financial de- mand for the Wilson Road school was not too heavy it would help when another request for money went forward. "And I don't think that we are going to be allowed to keep the older. schools, such as Westmount, much longer," forecast chairman Saywell. p The discussion closed with the in- struction to Mr. McEwen. No indi- cation was given of possible cost of the 10-classroom structure. Refuse to Recognize Witness As Minister Wolverhampton, England (Reu- ters) -- A judge Wednesday re- fused to recognize the authority in Britain of religious minister ap- pointed to the Jehovah's Witnesses sect by the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of America. He found William John Bull, 19, a Jehovah's Witness, guilty of fail- ing to answer his draft call. Bull argued as a full -time minis- ter of the sect he was exempt. The case was adjourned to give him further opportunity of con- sidering his position. May Request Local Firm To Run: Class Only 11 people atiended night- classes in welding organized by the Board of Education. Now the Board is going to find out if it would. be cheaper to "farm" the class out to a local welding con- cern, C. A. Sadler, a member of the Board, was yesterday empowered to investigate the possibility of a private concern taking the class. A report is to be submitted by Mr. Sadler, who commented, at a meet- ing of the Board yesterday, "hat some firm might be glad to take the class at a price." Insurance of the welding machines alone runs into several hundred dollars. SCHOOL IMPROVEMENTS The case of the over-heated cafe- teria floor was discussed by the board members, Plaster is to be put on the ceiling of the boiler room at the Central Collegiate In~ stitute to prevent the heat ris- ing to the floor of the cafeteria. The matter has been referred to the Property Committee, Another of the collegiate's rooms is hot--but members doubted whe- ther it was warm enough to war rant the expenditure of approxi= mately $500 on a onc-horse power exhaust fan. That idea has also been referred to the Property Com- mittee. QUESTION OF DRAPES Mrs. B. C. Colnus and Mrs. W. Re Elliott had a chat across the meets ing table over, the prices, of drapes. Samples were brought alonz - but no Oshawa merchants could provide material to match that krought in by Mr. Sadler from Hamilton. It was only $1 a yard, double-width and washable, : However, Oshawa fufniture stores will supply a chesterfield for an un-named purpose in one school. Mrs. Colpus has been looking over prices and was empowered to act in the matter. NY aE A MORTALITY RATE DOWN Stockholm .
