A. S. Evans, superintendent GM. passenger car assembly, delivers the | Developments In | Harbor Plan Cited The Industrial Affairs Commit- tee of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, at a luncheon meet- ing Thursday, heard of the most recent developments in the pro- posed $21,000,000 Intermart de- velopment at the Oshawa Har-| bor. Intermart Director Charles Magee outlined the history of the proposed scheme, and said it would be impossible to start anything until 60 days after the Oshawa harbor tariffs have been set. He noted that he didn't know what the tariffs would be. Harbor Commissioner Sam Jackson stated that the harbor tariffs had been set at a special Oshawa harbor would give the impression that the warehouse was the official harbor at Osh- awa. THREE SEPARATE PROJECTS It would appear from what Mr. Magee said during his talk, and the question period following that the Intermart promotion is three separate developments. The first being « bonded ware house and showrooms near the harbor; the second being the building by private concerns of assembly plants and clean in- dustry; the third phase appears to be a real estate promotion, meeting Wednesday. He said - that Oshawa offered a rate ; (which will be competitive with Toronto or Montreal. OPPOSITION TO NAME In his talk Mr. Magee noted| that there was local opposition [to the harbor development.

Monsignor Philip Coffey, who was recently invested as a domestic prelate of the Pope's Household, by 830 pupils. The Holy Cross Separate School pupils asembled in the church auditorium Thursday morning to offer their congratulations in the form of a program. Previous to the program the pupils all attended a special mass in the church at 9 a.m. The mass was celebrated by the monsignor and sung by the children's choir. During the program ' there were two presentations of gifts made to Monsignor Coffey. One was presented by Miss Phyllis Kratz on behalf of the teachers of the school, and the other, accompanied with a spiritual of- fering, was presented by the kindergarten children on behalf of the pupils of the school. Christina Szulak was the mas- ter of ceremonies for the occa- sion and introduced the perfom- ers, which included accordion soloist Helga Marinzel, of Grade 2; an accordion duet, by George Cser, of Grade 2; tap-dancing and baton-twirling duet, by Linda Dawe and Linda Boivin, representing Grades 6 and 7; and a solo, by songstress Rosa- lind Coe, of Grade 8. The balance of the program was made up of mixed groups, representing Grades 3, 4, 5 and ious pieces. The monsignor wore the purp- le robes of his office, which are generally worn for solemn occa- sions. Father Marshall Beriault, the monsignor's assistant in the parish, told the children that the monsignor "has his solemn robes on only because he wanted you to know what they lodked like." Monsignor Coffey thanked all the members of the school, and said that although he did not have the power to declare a holiday for the pupils, he had asked the principal of the school, Sister Thomas Aquinas, to dismiss school at 2:30 p.m. tomorrow. 8 which sang and recited var-| Carri add SLR a & NURSE AUDREY WHIT- SITT, of the Oshawa General Hospital admitting depart: ment, recently accepted a $5.85 donation to the hospital i= a | { | | | | | | | | | | | | | GRADUATES Robert George McClimond, | son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert McClimond, 310 Buena Vista street, graduated recently from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College, Toronto.

GAMES OF SKILL Five of the games of skill are being operated by Oshawa Kins- men, while Bernard Shows Ltd. is operating the remainder of the booths and rides. Rides at the carnival include: Twister, Helicopter, Merry-go-round, Fer- ris Wheel, Flying Scooter, Tilt- a-whirl, Auto-ride, Tubs-of-fun ' Fun House, Boat ride, Jet plane, | kiddies merry-go-round and Sky Fighter. Due to the adverse weather last night, some of the booths were closed. By 9 p.m., many of the booth operators were put- ting up the shutters and closing down. A few automobiles were cruising around the shopping centre lanes, but it was too wet, for the occupants to alight. The neon lights went out, and everybody went home. But still it poured. BED PUSHING CONTEST Final plans are being made for the bed pushing contest to be held Saturday. Prize money totalling $1,500 will be awarded to the ticket-holder who cor- rectly estimates the time it wil! take Oshawa Kinsmen to punsh a wheeled-bed from Bowman- ville to the Carnival, via Whit- by. The bed will lcave the Cream of Barley, Bowmanville, at 10 am., and proceed along High way 2 to Oshawa. At approxi mately 12.30 pm. at the Har- mony road intersection, it will be met by a parade of band:, The group will parade to the shop- ping centre, and the band will| enter the carnival grounds. No bed-push contest 'tickets will be sold after this point. The bed will be pushed along Highway 2, to the Whitby Town. Hall, and then back to the carnival along the same route.

Sharon Parish, 13, and Cher- yI's sister, Roberta, 11, did odd jobs around home and contributed from their weekly allowances to raise funds for 'home, it was decided they should have some type of uni- form to identify themselves to one another, as members of the same charitable organization. The executive agreed full uni- forms would be too costly for their small treasury so it was decided that red and white arm bands would suffice for identi- fication purposes. Mrs. Young was given given the task of preparing the club costumes-- the red and white arm bands. At first the girls decided they would make toys to distribute to the youngsters on the paedia- tric ward to help cheer them up during their stay in hospital. DANGER OF INFECTION They were soon discouraged from this plan because they learned, due to the danger of the spread of infection among children in a hospital, they would not be permitted to deliver their goods. But they did not change their thinking, that something should be done for-the hospital so. meetings continued -- so did the odd jobs around home -- which earned weekly allowances for the members.

CLUB ABANDONED Because Saturday morning music lessons have since began to interfere with meeting times and because the treasury is now empty, the girls have aban- doned their "Club." The "Club" may someday be forgotten, but the generosity of these three young school girls will long be remembered. Their $5.85 donation to a charitable cause like a hospital building fund is certainly a highly com- mendable act of charity.

Meaning Of Citizenship Is Explained Members of the Westmount Kiwanis Club marked the ob- servance of Citizenship Week at their Thursday luncheon meeting at Adelaide House. Dr. Godfrui Kaczanowski, clinical director of the Ontario Hospital at Whitby, was the guest speak- er. President Henry Reed pre- sided. Dr. K wski, a gr of the University of Warsaw school of medicine and a spec- ialist in psychiatry, came to Canada in 1949 after experienc- ing the rigors of many prisons and concentration camps as a result of the occupation of his native Poland by both Russian and German forces during the Second World War. He spoke, as one who by choice is a Canadian, of the real meaning of Canadian citi zenship. "Only when you have been deprived of freedom can you fully appreciate how won- derful it is," Dr. Kaczanowski said. He warned of the dangers to be encountered when people in the free world take their liberties for granted. "You will never know the thrill that my family and I ex- perienced when we received a cable in England telling us that we were needed to fill a serious shortage of psychiatrists in Saskatchewan soon after the war," the Doctor declared. "And ever since we have been overwhelmed by the genuine friendship and warmth with which we have been treated by our friends and colleagues in this wonderful land," Dr. Kac- zanowski observed. The speaker was intr by Kiwanian Dr. Roy Rowsell and the appreciation of the club was expressed by Kiwanian An- dy Suwala to the doctor for his moving and inspiring talk "that has made each one realize more keenly the worth of our heritage as Canadians."
