Lovell, city property committee chair- man, to sell the Hills and Dales property for $126,000 was defeated by council last night. Following a notice of motion laid before council last week, Ald.

Mosier who recently won the Tudhope Trophy for being the top young pilot under 19 in Canada. Neil has already won the Air Ca- det League of Canada Trophy. We think that these two trophies are an indication of better things to come for the small squadron with the bit spirit. Over the Christmas holidays the dron held its first Snowflake union. Both would be invited to this one in Oshawa, they said. Among the events listed for the reunion would be a parade through Oshawa from Alexandra Park to the Memorial Park,with a salut- ing base outside city hall; a dem- onstration of field gun drill at Alexandra Park; an aerial dis- play by naval aircraft over the Park; a film night and supper at the Armories; placing of wreaths on the Cenotaph; displays by visit- ing naval bands from Ottawa and Nova Scotia and a sunset memor- |1al service on Saturday.

"One won't be allowed to go to the toilet without having a tele- vision camera on one," Mr. Fraser sald. "The next thing they'll do will be to add a loudspeaker to the camera that will say 'peek-a- boo.' TO WATCH WORKERS He said 16 cameras or viewers, ircluding some "dummy" cameras, are to be ingtalled in the Peter- borough post ofiice. Apparently they would work on a closed cir- cuit used by postal inspectors to watch workers. Mr. Fraser said postal employees do not object to the present sys- tem of "peep holes" used by postal system. It was not the kind of de- vice needed to keep citizens honest. He asked how Postmaster-Gen- cral Lapointe would like to have a camera spotted on his desk in his office and in the House of Commons, to be watched in every- thing he did. He guessed Mr. La- pointe would not like it. (The min ister was not in the Commons at the time.) Mr. Fraser said every member of the Commons would object if the government planned to put TV cameras in the chamber to watch what members did.
