2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, August 12, 196 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN DON'T SELL "MATT" DYMOND SHORT There's no doubt about it: Dr. Matthew B. Dymond has given an adroit and skillful performance atop the high political trapeze since 1955 when he carried the party banner to victory in Ontario riding. That was his maiden ap= pearance in the big-time, but he proceeded to act like an old political pro. His achievements have been sound and versatile, if unspectacular. He may not be the top star in the provincial party's main- tent show, but he's a prime court favorite with the party brass, a man with fine talents, What provincial cabinet colleague has held as many key portfolios in the past four years (Health, Transport and Reform In- stitutions)? "Matt" prov- ed to be a hard taskmaster, DR. M. DYMOND and ruffled furs as he at- tempted to whip some of these departments into shape, but it is to his credit that his administration record has been free of scandal at all times. Don't dismiss that with a shrug. Who has developed more rapidly as a colorful polit- ico, as a spell-binding orator on and off the hustings. a man who can present the party's policies in a colorful and forceful way? Where will "Matt" Dymond's political road lead to next? y Will he test his wings in Toronto August 17 when the provincial party brass gather for an auspicious oc- casion--to pick the date and locale of an early conven- tion when a successor will be named for Premier Leslie Frost, the great white father of Provincial Tories? Is the Scottish-born immigrant who landed in Can- ada in 1926 with five cents in his pocket, big enough to fill the shoes of Premier Frost? Several party big-wigs think so, and "Matt" is giv- ing the problem serious thought. "I'm still thinking the matter over," he said Wed- nesday. "I have a few friends with whom I must consult first; however, I have received strong encouragement to seek the party leadership. This is a question that doesn't call for any snap decision." It seems like only yesterday (it was in the early 1930's) that "Matt" was a hard-working, ambitious gro- ceteria manager in Peterborough (Cecil Bint, now an Oshawa alderman, was his supervisor) eramming at nights to get his matric. It was a long, hard push through Queen's Medical School, but he made it--no human goals seem impossible for this hard-driving, dynamic medico. Political roads can have strange and unexpected turns for such performers. The early betting around Queen's Park shows "Doc" Dymond to be a dark horse at best, but don't sell him short in this leadership race. He could sneak in there and bring the bacon home, as he has so many times in the past when the pressure was on. AJAX CHEERS "PEG-LEG" PIOTROWSKI Ajax is getting ready to welcome Walter "Peg- Leg" Piotrowski a citizen who has gained much public- ity this week on his Montreal-Toronto marathon. "Peg-Leg" is popular with the citizenry and the home folks are cheering him along his difficult route. He is a caretaker with the board of works. He also operates a canteen at the Recreation Hall and manages Rotary Park for that service club. He practiced for this trip while walking 35 miles daily with a 26-pound pack on his back. Piotrowski owns an artificial leg, but rarely uses it--he built his peg-leg at home in his spare time. He says it never gives him trouble. "l am making this trip to show people like Dr. Barbara Moore a thing or two," he says. LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Labor Minister Michael Starr spent the week at his Oshawa home. He was to share the limelight today with Health Minister Dr. Matthew B, Dymond at a special party outing at Greenwood--the annual picnic of The Ontario Riding Progressive-Conservative Association . . . Alderman Gordon Attersley and his wife returned this week from a two-week vacation to Western Canada points Industrial Commissioner Kenneth Bath is scheduled to return here next Monday from London, England, where his mother died recently . . . York Township councillors have learned that the cost of their recent probe into township affairs will cost the tax- . payers $39,268, which is $6000 under the original state- ment. The councillors report that the municipality has not the money in the budget to pay the $39,268--the committee of general purpose will ask Municipal Af- fairs Minister Warrender for a revised statement on the probe's cost. It will ask Mr. Warrender specifically for further information on the reason for inquiry counsel T. Kelso Creighton's fee set at $22,200--64 days of prep- aration and 47 days of sittings at $200 per day. LAST LINES TO "WALLY" MYLES So William ("Wally") Myles is dead? He will be missed, especially in veterans' circles here (The Legion, The Corps, the Sergeants' Mess). He was a soldier first and last, a hard disciplinarian who learned about the horrors of war first-hand, and not in the text or history books; yet, underneath it all, he was a gentle, generous man, one with a fine flair for good camaraderie, hearty lauhgter. "Wally" was a familiar figure in vets' social cir- cles, usually with note book and pen poised so that he could write rapidly when some hilarious situation caught his sharp eye -- these irreverent (b non- bitter) scribblings, passed surreptitiously to cronies, sometimes became collector's items and made "Welly" a prime favorite. He was rarely sad, but he had much to be sad about. The notes, too, were symbolic -- they reflect- ed a happy, carefree, yet defiant spirit that refused to bow before the god of personal tragedy, no matter how heavy the odds. "Wally" underwent surgery for the removal of his larnyx because of cancer in 1955 -- this operation left him permanently speechless, paralyzed in the left arm. This was a bitter blow for a man who liked the vigorous life, who loved to debate, swing pals around via ju-jitsu, who worked for GM for 22 years on the truck repair line (until his operation), who was award- ed two medals (The 1914-15 Star and General Service) overseas in the First World War with the Argyle and Sutherland Highlanders, "Wally" was squadron sergeant-major in charge of commando instruction for the Ontario Regiment at Camp Borden in the Second World War. He died in hospital early Tuesday about eight hours after a heart seizure at The Legion, which he loved so well. He was conscious almost until the end and the | chances are that he would have been fully paralyzed | had hy survived this attack.

Current three - year contracts between the UAW and the big three auto makers run out Aug. 31. They have been bargaining on new ones the last six weeks. The UAW's Ford negotiating committee voted unanimously Friday to seek authorization for a strike vote in the 84 local un- jons it represents across the country. Union bargainers at General Motors and Chrysler already had decided to seek strike vote authorization.

POLICE WARY But in the capital and through out the country and Algeria, in- telligence agents have their ear to the ground and police inform- ers are busy. There are plenty of problems. The painfully slow Algerian peace talks have broken down again amid the continuing ex- plosion of plastic bombs.

The decision announced here by Jean Sicurani, French polit- ical and information chief in Al- geria, restored freedom of ac- tion to France's military com- mander in the North African country. France ordered the offensive cease-fire May 20 in a move coinciding with the start of | French - insurgent peace talks. |The insurgents, however, de- |clared they were not bound by 1S ceasefire. Sicurani said: '"The measures taken by France tending toward {peace have not found an echo |with the FLN," the insurgent movement. | He added that the com- mander-in - chief, Gen. Charles Ailleret, had been authorized to take whatever measures were necessary to deal with insurgent threats to persons or property. The end of the cease-fire fol lows a marked increase in in- surgent activity in Algerian towns, where uniformed insur- gents have penetrated during the last few weeks with the aim of organizing urban Moslems against the French. Uniformed insurgents fought French Foreign Legionnaires in a public park Friday at the Le- gion's headquarters in Sidi bel Abbes. Three insurgents and two Legionnaires were killed.

COOLER AIR FINALLY a MAKES IT . | The farmers are acting up again, pressing for parliament's recall to discuss their problems, and, behind it all, the Berlin crisis is looming. Professional politicians who {oppose de Gaulle--and they are not a few--see themselves rele- gated to the background of con- ducting foreign affairs, so long as the present strong man holds power. Many army officers bit- terly oppose his proposed solu- tion of the Algerian problem by letting the Algerians choose their own future. They call it selling out the empire. REBELS REMAIN Those who tried to unseat the regime by the 'Algiers revolt of January 1960 and April 1961, still thirst for revenge. Well - informed journalists warn of impending danger. The Conservative Paris daily Figaro the influential leftist weeklies Express and France - Observa- teur, all stress that-the regime is in danger now as it was in April. The tragic conflict of loyalties which divides the army and weakens France is as sharp as ever. Even royalist generals are seeking retirement ahead of time. Cabinet Views Force In NATO OTTAWA (CP) -- The Cana- dian government is re-assessing its military contribution to NATO in light of the Berlin crisis, informed sources said Friday. The cabinet is expected to re- view the situation in detail next week, when a public announce- ment may be made. It was discussed at Wednes- day's cabinet meeting but no decision was made in view of the fact that only 13 of the 24 ministers were present. One cabinet source said Can- ada has received no formal re- quest from NATO for an in- crease in its military contribu- tion--now consisting of an army brigade group in northwest Ger- many, an air division of four wings of three fighter squadrons {each based in northeast France {and West Germany, a supply depot in England and elements of the navy earmarked for NATO service in the Atlantic. Canada is one of the few NATO members which has lived up fully to its force commit- ment.

Sole responsibility for the head - on crash was fixed on Philip Nelson, 21, of Toronto, whose car speedometer was found stuck at 98 miles an hour following his car's crash into another in the wrong lane of the highway. The jury recommended "'sub- stantial" strengthening of staff and equipment of the Bond Lake, Bradford and Barrie OPP detachments. It also urged that direct telephone lines to police detachments be placed at all dual-lane highway cloverleafs to aid motorists in reporting erra- tic drivers. Killed in the crash were Nel- son; Russel Bell, 55, driver of the second car; his wife, Beryl, 47; Alfred Glazier, 50, and his wife, Carolyn, 53, all of Tor onto. Earlier Friday, provincial po- lice officers described a two- hour chase at speeds up to 120 miles an hour, during which Nelson avoided roadblocks and sped through back roads before making his fatal turn into the wrong lane on the highway. Acting Crown attorney Meri- dith Fleming asked jurors to consider testimony from four persons who said they knew Nelson was intoxicated and a hazard on the road.

At the All - Arms Training Centre of Sennelager, a 45'min- ute jeep drive into the forest northeast of here, the simulated battles are realistic enough to give a civilian the shivers. The men of the 4th Canadian Infantry Brigade Group recently moved into the Sennelager con- centration area for three weeks of field training, including com- pany-size tactical exercises un- der simulated nuclear condi- tions with the infantry working closely with armor and artil- lery. It was the first such exercise this year and gave Brig. Cam- eron B. Ware of London, Ont., who took over in January, his first opportunity to command all units together. The Sennelager set-up, shared by the troops of all countries represented in Germany under the North Atlantic Treaty Or- ganization agreement, is a ram- bling, hilly area including for- ests, lush green pastures and chopped-up fields where heavy tanks exercise. MOBILE FORCE The brigade, part of the inte- grated Western defence system under the operational command of SHAPE, is a highly mobile force ready to move fast. The Canadian unit in Ger- many has changed size and shape considerably since the first men came here 10 years ago. The initial 27th Canadian In- fantry Brigade Group was sta- tioned just outside Hanover for less than two years before be- committing an indictable of- fence. | ing replaced by the Ist Cana- dian Infantry Brigade Group INTERPRETING THE NEWS For Cub By BOB EXELL Canadian Press Staff Writer | Outcries in the Congress of ithe United States for military | reprisals against Cuba have be- come more shrill with each of | the recent aircraft hijackings. | President Kennedy has taken {notice of it and apparently it has rankled him. Many Congressmen judged Cuba guilty of the hijackings be- fore all the evidence was in. In each of the four cases of plane seizures it turned out that Cuba had no direct involvement. But the Congressmen refuse to change their verdict, convinced that somehow Cuba must be to {blame { | During his last press confer- lence President Kennedy went Congress Cries an Blood Castro let the passengers go but refused to release the plane, valued at $3,500,000.

He At a typical night exe only the rustling sound of s diers crawling on their to the trenches can be heard. There they await an unseen enemy and even a handful of spectators speak in whispers, so dead serious is the approach te this "war game."

If the flare should be carried by the wind beyond the Canadian position, silhouetting them for the enemy, they would be considered to have-been wiped out. The four enemy attackers are followed by others, coming singly and in groups and at various speeds.
