CORBETT News Editor PHONE 703 Canvass Next Week X-Rays Given On September 10 to 14 One of the most effective phases of Ontario's public health program -- the mass X-ray survey to detect possible tubercular sonditions -- will be held in Whitby the week after next, September 10 to 14. Next week, September 3 to 8, a house-to-house canvass will be made under sponsorship of the Rotary Club, in order that the survey may be ade- quately explained to everyone. Cards will be given out authorizing persons to attend at the appointed time and place. Th September _clinic will be held in All' Saints' Parish Hall 0, 11, 12, 13 and 14 between the hours of 10 to 12 in the morning, two to five in the afternoon and seven to ten in the evening. Gordon McMahon, who was charge of a similar survey some four years ago, has taken the chair- manship of the project again this time. On Monday, September 10, special arrangements have been made to do the High School students, County Home residents and Industries. The Public Clinic will begin that even- ing at seven o'clock. Here is what the canvassers will | peo) ' tell citizens as they make personal contacts on the subject: There is no charge whatsoever for this check-up. It is not considered essen- tial - for individuals with known chest conditions who are under periodic chest clinic observation to attend the survey. There is a necessity of elderly people attending the clinic as oc- casionally infectious cases of tuber- culosis are found in this age group. Such individuals may feel that a chest film at their age is of little consequence. It will be explained that the attendance of older people will set an example to their younger yelatives and friends. Reports are not sent to those individuals whose chest x-rays are considered normal. If no report is received within sev- eral weeks of the end of the survey, the person may take it for granted that nothing abnormal was found. Individuals who require further examination are notified directly by the Division of Tuberculosis Preven- tion and given an appointment at a follow-up clinic. Following the sexamination, a report is sent the ine-- family physician. Those not recalled for examination on whom a report is made will be advised to consult their family physicians who will be notified of the findings. All reports are confidential, This free service has been made possible by the generous contribu- tion of the public, toward the pur- chase of Christmas Seals. Certain ple will state that they do not consider a chest film necessary at this time as they were x-rayed with- in the past year. This objection may be overcome by pointing out that a routine periodic chest x-ray is an excellent insurance for continued good health. People will not be kept waiting at he clinic--only a few moments are required--120 persons can be examined easily in an hour. Clothes don ot have to be removed when the x-ray is taken, excepting top coats, and in the case of men, suit coats and vests. Women are re- quested {2 wear simple dresses free from metallic buttons, sequins, or brooches.

BROOKLIN MAN FINED Archibald Davidson, Brooklin garageman, yesterday entered a plea of guilty to a charge of careless driving laid by Provincial Constable K. W. Bradley. He was fined $25 and costs or one month, Evidence was that on the early morning of August 3, he was in collision with a Toronto car at the corner of No. 12 highway and the 7th concession of Whitby Township. He had been drinking. Suspension. of licence was left to the discretion of the De- partment of Highways. SLEPT IN PARKED -CAR Hugh Crossley of Whitby, who denied in court yesterday that he was a vagrant, was remanded in custody for one week. By that time he will have his next pension cheque and probably be able to get a job also. Police testimony by Sergeant M. C. Banks was that the man had been sleeping in cars parked behind Bryant's garage. He had no boarding house. On the night before he was picked up, a car cushion was burned by someone's cigarette butt. On the night of the offence, Crossley was under the in- fluence of liquor. PAIR REMANDED A further remand was given in court on the case of Stanley Wil- liam Jones and Robert McLelland, charged with causing a disturbance in the Royal Hotel early in July. Jones is on $3,000 bail, awaiting trial on another offence. He is on $200 bail for the present charge and has just completed a jail term in Brantford for an offence there. CASE DISMISSED A charge of having liquor illeg- ally in his car was dismissed yes- terday against Debert Atkinson of Pickering. The accused did not ap- pear. Constable Dand said that he found a car in the back seat of which was a bottle of beer. No one was in the car. Magistrate F. S. Ebbs found the evidence in- sufficient.

An- Expect Enrolment Nearly Thousand In Whitby Schools ; When school bells, sil silent for two months, ring out on Tuesday morning next, it is expected that 990 pupils will answer the call. It will be the largest registration of school children in Whitby's history, principals anticipate. School buildings have been put in excellent shape during the long vacation, and full staffs of competent teachers have been engaged. In fact, everything is in readiness for the new school year. THE HIGH SCHOOL . At the Whitby District High School, Principal Donald Tutt ex- pects an enrolment of from 200 to 225. This is somewhat lower this year, as some students, it is ex- pected, will be lost to the new High Schol at Pickering. Furthermore there will be fewer. from the en- trance class of the public schools. Next year, however, the number from the entrance class will be much larger, PUBLIC SCHOOLS Record enrolment of at least 625 is anticipated by Senior Principal Earl Fairman at the four public schools. In each school there will be an increased "attendance. The new Hillcrest School will be crowd- ed and will have the largest num- ber of pupils per teacher, or 37 to a class, This, indeed, is sure evidence of Whitby's growth, and it is some- thing that is likely to continue for some years. Er will not be too long before an addition to Hillcrest School or a new school will be need- ed in the ward. SEPARATE SCHOOL At St. Bernard's Separate School where an additional room is being prepared and the teaching staff en- larged, an enrolment of about 140 is expected by the Board. It is for- tunate that the school was enlarg- ed last year, as the attendance has been increasing for 'several years. The school is modern in every re- spect. LOOK TO THE FUTURE To take care of future needs, it will be recalled, the Whitby District High School Board recently pur- chased a new High School site for $7,500. The Public School Board is negotiating with the County of On- tario for a side which is part of the County Home property. The County asked $4,000, but the Council has now offered to take $3,000. Parents Who Condone Sons' Misdeeds At Fault - Crown Parents who try "to condone and excuse" their. sons' crimes present the greatest difficulty when law enforcement officers seek to clear up the trouble, Crown Attorney Alex Hall said in court yesterday, after the mother of an Ajax lad made a highly emotional plea, say- ing that her boy is "a good boy and he is only shielding the others." Walter Kellogg, 19, Beaty Street, was cqnvicted of four offences: careless driving, breaking and en- tering the Ajax Marketeria with intent to steal, entering the Ajax police office where he stole a watch and having liquor illegally. To the charges, he answered laconically, "I guess I'm guilty." He pleaded not guilty to the careless driving count. Kellogg was remanded in custody one week for sentence. Mrs. Kellogg was allowed to speak to the court. Her discourse in part was histerical and irration- al, She said she wanted to have the boy remanded before his trial and that she had been denied a chance to talk to him. She said she was certain he had no inten- tion to steal, but was so drunk he PARENTS WHO (Continued on Page 5) Cards of Thanks Mr. and Mrs. H. R.

Two happy golfers, William and Harold Godfrey of Toronto, thought they would trade some -of their old clubs for the newer motels at the Rouge Hills Golf Club the other y. After the brothers had their game and returned the clubs, Wil- liam Ogle the 'pro', became sus- picious. He got in touch with Pickering Constable Dand who con- ted the clubs and charged the men with theft. © In court yesterday, William and Harold Godfrey offered a some- what lame explanation of the fiasco and said they were sorry. The fine was $10 and costs, for each, Didn't Read Sale Contract-Charged A victim of his his- own neglect, Clarence Stead of Toronto found himself in Whitby court yesterday charged with false pretenses, Now he knows that he should read a contract before signing it. In a car deal with Arthur Bar- nard of Whitby recently, he signed Barnard's contract and swore that his 1937 Pontiac which he was selling, was free of liens and en- cumbrances. It was not. By so signing, Stead made himself "liable to a charge of theft by false pre- tences. He was remanded to see whether the $75 involved will be paid. Fine is $50, Costs For Failing To Note Stop Sign Conceding that "the facts as ad« duced by the prosecution do not correspond with the information re- collected by my client," J. P, Man- gan, K.C,, yesterday did not enter a defence in court when A. B. Ed- wards, Byron Street North, pleaded not guilty to a charge of careless driving. Mr. Edwards who is 68 years of age, was fined $50 and costs or one month, but suspensnon of his driv- ing license was left to the Depart- ment of Highways, as the magis- trate did not care to deprive him of his mail-carrying job. Crown At- torney A. C. Hall reminded the court that on April 23, Mr. Edwards was fined $25 and costs on a sim- ilar count after another accident on Brock Street. The accident this time was at the baseline corner (corner of Brock and Victoria Streets). A north- bound car driven by Samuel Thorn- dyke was struck broadside and hurled 'into a pole. Damage to Thorndyke's car was $900. He was somewhat injured, Donald Gordon, who was driving south over the railway bridge at the time had a "ringside" seat to see the mishap. In his presence, Mr. Edwards told Chief of Police Ronald Love that he failed to stop at the intersection. ADDITIONAL WHITBY NEWS ON PAGE 5 105 Register Today As W.M.S.
