mew WHITBY AND DISTRICT NEWS ron 4 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, 'Wednesday, October 7, 1953 Wandering Chickens Cost Pickering Man $25 Fine A squabble over trespassing chickens was settled in the Whit- by Police Court on Tuesday when a Pickering Township man was fined $25 and costs on a conviction of assault occasioning actual bod- ily harm. Convicted was Pawla Wacula, an immigrant from the Ukraine. The complainant, who ap- peared in Court with a black eye, was also Ukrainian, his neighbour Pawla Bilyk. Crown Attorney Alex. Hall, QC, called upon an interpreter to assist with the evidence. Bilyk told the Court that he had come home from work to find the accused's chick- ens in his garden. He said that he was chasing them out when the accused shouted that he would teach him how to chase chickens and came over to the Bilyk pro- perty where, said Bilyk, Wacula belaboured him with a cane and punched him with his fist in the ribs and once in the eye. Wacula took the stand and stated that Bilyk had been the one with the cane and claimed that only one blow had been struck, that in which Bilyk received fhe shiner. Je add: ed that on a previous occasion the chickens had wandered and Bilyk had injured two of them in getting them off his property. When Magistrate F. S. Ebbs learned that the accused was 45 years old and the complainant was about 60, he ordered a conviction and levied a fine of $25 and costs or 10 days.

James M , who claims he resides at 317 Dundas Street, W., although his mother denies it, pleaded guilty to a charge of wilfl damaging the gate at his mother's "mn. Besides the fine, he was also or- dered to pay $15 damages for tne gate. » Chief witness for the cCrown was 's mother, 80 years old, who stated that since his release, from prison earlier this year her son had kept coming to her home. "I don't want him around," she | said, and added that he had been the worse for drink at the time of smashing of the gate. Magistrate Ebbs recognized the accused as a man he had sent] to prison and ordered the lash upon his conviction of assaulting his mother. He observed that Maguire had escaped the lash and added "It is apparantly the only thing which will deter a man like this." Turning to the accused, he stated "Why don't you learn to behave? Your mother is having enough troubles in her old age without you bothering her." The accused claimed that he had been living at his mother's home ever since his release from prison in May of this year. He stated that he had built the gate which he had stumbled into while drunk. His Worship imposed the max- imum fine under this section, $20 | or one month. He also ordered | damages to be paid to accused's mother. People First Proven Policy Rotary Is Told How a democratic policy of put- ting the le first in a large in- dustrial establishment works to the advantage of not only the company but every employee was related to the Whitby Rotary Club yesterday at Hotel Royal by Allan Tomlinson, of the Public Relations Depart- ment of Swit and Company. A film which has been witnessed by over 500,000 peaple outside of the company, according to Mr. Tom- linson, told the story of how com- pe p relations with its employees fare can be made a powerful and effective weapon against the in- roads of communism. Two visitors to the giant plants in the United States believed to be communistic spies had to be con- vinced that a land where absolute freedom prevails, where every man is allowed to work out his own destiny, where he is not a servant of the state -- and where a con- stant effort is being put forward by large employers of labor to improve the lot of the worker and make him happy and as iar as possible secure in his work, was preferable to conditions prevailing in non-democratic countries. The visitors were skeptical of things told them by the company's of- broad field of human wel- ficers in the plans but they were allowed to talk to individual em- ployees, performing different tasks, where the informailon they gleam ed confounded their communistic ideas. They were told, that the company is owned by 64,000 peo- ple and that there are 5,000 com- pany employee shareholders, also that the workers enjoy benefits, some of which are non-contribu- tory, and that recreational and other facilities are provided to help them develop their talents and .

PHONE 703 ROTARY HELPS STOKERS A donation of $50.00 was made by Whitby Rotary Club yesterday to the Whitby Stokers Softball Club, Central Ontario champions to help defray the cost of the week end trip to Sudbury, where decisive games for the all-Ontario title. In addition, each member contributed a dollar out of his o'vn pocket. President Francis McIn- tyre brought the achievements of the Club before the" members, pointing out that Whitby had ob- tained very favorable advertising as a result, and that the visit to Sudbury would cost $700. The decision to make both donations was unanimous. SET $1,000 BAIL Jessie Marsland and Claud Marsland, sons of the above, are being held in custody in the On- tario County Gaol, Whitby, pend- ing the raising of bail set at $1,000. The two young Indians face a num- ber of charges. Jessie Marsland faces two charges of assault oc- casioning actual bodily harm and is jointly charged with his brother with breaking and entering a dwell- ing house. Claud is also charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm. Since the offences are alleged to have occurred on the Scugog Reserve, the trial is slated for Port Perry on October 15th. STOKERS LEAVE FRI. NIGHT Whitby Stokers and their follow- ers who contemplate the trip to Sudbury will leave the CNR gtat- ion on Friday evening at 8.10, pro- ceeding to the Nickel city where decisive games are to be played for the all-Ontario championship. Tickets are 10.95 return and are obtainable at CPR uptown ticket office at A. E. Stanlick's on Byron Street North. The team expects to return Sunday or Mondy even- ing. It is expected that quite a few will travel with the team to cheer them to victory. Donations to help finance the trip are being received at the Times-Gazette of- BIRTHS Stokers Seek Funds For Championship Finals The Town of Whitby has made a grant of $300 to the Stokers Softball team. The grant was made at a meeting of the Town Council Monday evening following a plea by Vie Igglesdon, manager of ine Stokers, for-funds to help pay the team's transportation expenses to Sudbury this weekend where they iy for the all-Ontario champion- ship. Mr. Igglesdon pointed out that the Stokers this year had managed to take three championships in the province and were now planning to go to Sudbury on Saturday to try for the top spot in the province. The trip, he said, would cost be- tween $600 and $700. He pointed out that the team had given the town of Whitby a considerable amount of publicity in their past achievements and had accomp- lished something that was usually accomplished only by larger cities. He stated that at Whitby, where they played their home games, the average receipts per game was about $40, from which was de- ducted $10 for. the grocery draw, salaries for the umpires and equip- ment expenses, leaving the club very little. The team this year has managed to make five trips to To-| ronto, two to Kingston, one to Hamilton and one to Agincourt and at the present found itself very low in funds. MAYOR ENTHUSIASTIC Mayor Harry Jermyn expressed his pleasure at the Stokers' ability to accomplish something which was usually done by larger cities and stated that they had proved a great advertisement for the town of Whitby. He added that he had been advised by an official of the Public Utilities Comission that a donation might be forthcoming from that body. Reeve McIntyre, when he learn- ed that the Stokers would receive only half the gate at the Sudbury games, stated that he did not think it fair that a team should have to travel all that distance for only half the gate. Councillor Oscar Moore blamed the lack of funds on the OSA and added that he also thought this a fine type of adver- attising for the town of Whitby. The statutes Jegarding gifts of grants was looked up by Reeve Mcintyre and after reading the section, councillors agreed that it was possible to make such a grant. Councillor Doris Holliday made a motion that council intro- duce a by-law to make a grant of $300 to the Stokers, a motion se- attend the games in Sudbury. The motion carried. conded by Councillor Don Bryant. Thanking council for the consid- eration given Mr. Igglesdon stat- ed that it was his hope that at least | one member of council could at- tend the games in Sudbury. Coun- cillor Moore: 'I'll go if council says so." 'Other councillors, realiz- ing that Councillor Moore would probably give his right arm to go, answered him with applause. | Later in council, a by-law was | introduced and passed which made a grant of $300 to the Stokers. Mr. Igglesdon is now seeking oth- er donations to raise all the funds necessary for the train trip, hotel bills and meals. Several likely sources of funds were cited by Mayor Jermyn. Any individuals wishing to make a cash donation to the Stokers to assist with their travelling expenses may leave it at the office of the Times-Gazette in Whitby where they will receive an offiical receipt.

R. Leggett, RR1, Oshawa. All pleaded not guilty and when evidence was to be adduced it was learned that the by-law governing the offence had not been properly sealed. All three were dismissed. Mr. Hall observed that although the matter of the marsh's location had been advertised in the paper and had been broadcast 'on the radio, there were no signs posted [on the marsh. He suggested that | the trustees of Ajax consider post- | and intoxication as Crashes Cruiser Whitby Trucker Is Fined $100 A Whitby man whose truck crash- ed into a Provincial Police cruiser has been fined $100 and costs by Magistrate F.

He stated in reply to a question by Crown Attorney Hall, QC, that Steffler would have become a danger to the public if he had been allowed to drive fur- ther. Defence Attorney Wooton, of Whitby, asked that the charge by reduced to one of impairment hav- ing regard to the evidence. Mr. Hall observed that there were as many interpretations of impairment there were people to give such interpretations. His Worship reduced the charge] to the lesser impairment count and | fined Steffler $100 and costs.

Refused Drink, Brought Own, Fines $50, Costs Magistrate F. S. Ebbs, presiding in the Whitby Police Court, yester- day, meted out a fine of $50 to an 18-year-old Ajax youth convicted of being intoxicated. John Joseph Corrigan, 11 Kent Street, Ajax, pleaded guilty before His Worship to his second intoxication offence this year. Following the pled of guilty, Chief Censtable Traves, of Ajax, reported that Corrigan had been arrested in the Ajax Armoury. He stated that he had learned that the accused had entered the Ar- moury without an invitation and had ordered a drink at the bar. When refused and ejected from the building, he later returned, again was refused and thereupon took a flask from his own pocket and announced that he was an a pos- ition to serve himself: It was point- ed out that Corrigan had been con- victed of being intoxicated on March 25, of this year. There was some debate a to whether the Armoury was consid- ered a public place, especially since Corrigan had been refused admis- sion. Finally, the phrase citing the place of the offence was deleted. As an alternative to the $50 fine, His Worship offered one month in the County Gaol. INTOXICATED Frank Opulka, of Ajax, was fined $50 and costs when he plead- ed guilty in Whitby Police Court to being intoxicated. It was the accused's second offence this year, hence the heavy fine. Norman Marsland, an Indian from the Scu- gog Reserve, was fined $10 and costs for being intoxicated on the reservation. The charge was laid by Constable Gordon Keast, of the Whitby Detachment of the OPP, under the Indian Act, rather than the Liquor Control Act.
