For mother is as Wilson, ulations of a recently bereaved family in a small Spanish town in the mid-30's, provide strong dramatic meat at the McLaugh- lin Public Library this week. This last presentation of the win- ter season by the Oshawa Little Theatre is Federico Lorca's three-act tragedy, The House of Bernalda Alba. The play, di- rected -by Torontonian Russ Waller, opened Wednesday night and will play through Sat- urday. Performed with an all-female cast, the play is part of a trilogy. It is described by the| author's brother as a ote] graphic documentary, in that] in demonstrating tragedy, it dif-| fers from the other two whimsi- unrelenting as ever, even then.

Tea and cookies were served the par- ents while the ballet students enjoyed the orange drink after the recital, Many parents' were on hand to watch the recital which was well portrayed, and was great- ly enjoyed by those present. It should be noted, however, that the recital was in the form of a regular class with a few varia- tions to make the presentation more enjoyable. Normally parents are not per- mitted to watch the children while the class is in session, but this rule has been broken re- cently .and the parents were given one class per month at 'Would Limit 'Service Stations Recital Is Given Class watch the progress of their] child. The Wednesday afternoon chil- dren's ballet class has been in operation since last November! with an average attendance of 16 girls between the ages of five and 11. The class is spon- sored, not to develop a child as a ballerina but to help pos- ture and etiquette through the discipline in the teaching and practice of basic baliei steps. The class this past season has been in the capable hands of Miss Caroline Walker, who is a student in ballet at the Betty Oliphant School of Dancing in Toronto. Mrs. Frank Singer, of Oshawa, has acted as the pian- ist for the class. . The children who participated regularly in the class this sea- son were: Martha Wright, San- dra Beebee, Brenda McNeeley, Sally Howson, Jane Woods, Valerie MacDonald, Helen Topo- rowski, Patsy Shaw, Cathy Stead, Judy Shaw, Anna Norton, Jennifer Twist, Sandra Mec- Laughlin, Arleen Birecki, Lil- lian Lavender, Deborah Suds- The Ontario County Branch of | bury, Barbara Doherty, Orysia {the Garage Operators Associa-\Iuchak and Sandra Langmaid, She Osharon & OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 1961 SECOND SECTION sociation of Oshawa sponsor | Joan Alldred, Sandra sound effects; |tion of Ontario is pressing to| {have two bylaws passed. | One bylaw would fix the busi-| ness hours of service stations in| the town of Whitby.

Speaking to 'GOA members, at the Club 401, Herbert Robin- son said: "All garage operators have an obligation to their cus- tomers, to watch for unsafe features on vehicles and to bring them to the owners' atten- tion. Many more accidents than are generally realized are due to ears in poor condition." The Oshawa Police Depart- ment and the Oshawa Junior Chamber of Commerte are once again operating a safety check lane, as a safety serv- ice to the community. It was noted that last year less cars went through the safety lane than in the previous five years of operation.
