GM is offering a greater number and variety of automobiles and we're determined to give GM custom- ers, through our dealers, the fast- est and best possible service," said GM president E. H. Wal- ker. Growth in GM parts handling |in the last 10 years is indicated by the number of different items stocked in the Oshawa warehouse: In 1951 there were quantities of 67,000 different parts stocked; this year there are 170,000. This is believed to be the largest num- ber kept by any automobile manu- facturer in the world. we be- "With this addition, ed by the Canadian Council of Christians and Jews under the auspices of the Oshawa Junior Chamber of Commerce, and is designed to promote inter-pro- vincial understanding among young people. --Oshawa Times Photo Arriving in a drenching rain at the CNR station in Oshawa Monday afternoon from Keno- gami, P.Q, are 14 Oshawa high school students and their guests for an exchange visit of two weeks.

EXECUTIVE WORKED HARD The executive of the Duplate Social and Sports Club was re- sponsible for organizing and run- ning off the picnic so smoothly. Jack McAdam on the public ad- dress system was a "live wire", and a great assistance to the other executives in running off their various events.

Others assisting were: Al Lamb, Al Set- ter, Marlene McAdam, Russ and Bruce Chute, Wilf Anthony, Don Brockman, Robert Sennott, Bed ford Thomson and Ernie Moni. Mr. and Mrs. Keith Connell, proprietors of the park, had everything spic and span and were very co-operative in every way. ' SOFTBALL TOURNEY Ome of the highlights of the day was the softball tournament under the direction of Ralph Harlowe. Armourplate defeated Cutting 10-9 in the first game. The game between Twindow and Laminating was even closer, ending 9-9 and the winner being decided on the toss of a coin with Twindow winning the toss.

Mr. Steffler said that on the local swimming pool project, he was not able to recognize any local faces. He emphasized that '"'we are not opposed to outside contrac- tors coming in here. We are only opposed when they use non-local labor and pay lower than the pre- vailing rate, which is always union rate." About this time Ald. A V.

Rise- brough, 21 - year - old assistant agent, who was killed July 10 by a CNR freight train at the Osh- awa station, never realized his impending danger until the in- stant before he died. The jury decided he died acci- dentally when he attempted to hand a hoop containing a mes- sage to the brakeman on the rear of a westbound freight train which was just pulling out of the station and was struck by a fast- moving train travelling in the op- posite direction. There were no recommenda- tions attached to the jury's ver- diet. CHANCE OCCURRENCE It was just by chance that Risebrough happened to be the one to "hoop" the message. Fred Crate, the operator on duty, started out of the station with the hoop, he told the jury, when Risebrough, an apprentice oper- ator, offered to do the job saying "I've never missed one yet". Several witnesses agreed that the man never heard the warn- ing whistles blown by the east- bound freight. This was possible, they said, because of the noise of the other train.
