"We should sit down, when | there is no pressure on us, and decide whether our policy in these matters is to remain the }same or whether we should open our schools to deserving | organizations." Mr. Stroud said. MEETING TO DECIDE | Questioned by Trustee Mrs. | Clayton Lee whether they would have this policy in writing or not, Mr. Stroud said the meet- ing should decide in every way whether the policy should be written into the minutes or in- corporated in the board's by- laws. Mrs. Lee replied she hoped this would be an open meeting. |The tax payers put us in these seats and they have a right to know how we reach a decision in this matter," she said. Mr. Stroud agreed this was not a matter 'to be brushed a- side', and that the public had a) right to know. At this point Rt. Rev. Msgr. |Philip Coffey, Separate school representative to the board, said he would have a lot to say at that meeting and added that there might be a libel suit over | the matter, but he did not elab- orate. Sunday School Rental Policy To Be Reviewed had been quite impressed by the trustees of the board i n his vis- its, even though some of their opinions differed from his. He said he was now able to under- stand more fully the underlying issues in the matter. He added he had now made arrangements for the United Auto Workers Hall to be made available for the Sunday in place of the OCCI auditorium. Questioned about his day of fasting and mourning, Major Rankin said he had fasted for some 26 hours, but had decided against wearing the-¥lack arm- band on his travels, &s he had previously announced, because he did not wish to embarrass the trustees. He said he was very pleased the Board had de- cided to review its policy in the matter. Fine Bookie $300, Costs Richard Canton Eng, 161 King street east, was fined $300 and costs or three months in jail when he pleaded guilty Monday in Oshawa Magistrate's Court, to a charge of keeping a betting house. An officer of the Ontario Provincial Police Anti-Gambling Squad testified he, and a fellow |officer, found a record of bets, totalling $216 on 99 horses, re- corded on slips of onion-skin paper, a payoff sheet with a list of numbers representing bettors' names 'for the previous day's bets and a bank envelope, dated Jan. 8, containing a list of bets, totalling $311 on 112 horses running at three tracks in the U.S. They also found a copy of the Racing Form for Jan. 10 when they raided the 1 geghe apartment, on that ate.

The gospel is 'good news' discovered through the living witness and sacrifice of Jesus. We cannot lift ourselves into goodness, it is only as we turn to God with humility that strength will come and a new life will emerge." Dr. Forsythe continued say- ing, "Unless adults study the Bible to have a fuller knowl- edge of its wisdom, we might as well not have Sunday School lessons. It know that more adults are studying the Bible for God can use the Word in a way that is light and blessing. FELLOWSHIP STRESSED "The early Christians were serious about fellowship, they wanted to witness to each other that they cared for each other. How. much of a fellowship are we? What would it be like if we really cared for other people's burdens and woes? We should be able to share our feelings with others in the church. "Some people think the world is a jungle of tragic affairs. The church should be like a home where people love each other and are concerned for each other. The early Christians remained steadfast in prayer) When the minister is praying, do we think of it as a performance he is putting on?

The pair appeared on |a total of 10 charges of theft and |possession of stolen goods in- Montreal, Belleville, .Kingston two locked doors on the premi- ses. They produced their search warrant to the accused, whom they found in the living room at the time. A phone was found concealed in a record player cabinet, which had two listed business numbers and gave out a 'low buzzing sound' instead of the customary ring, he said. One of the officers answered six calls, one of which was to place a bet. The other five hung up when the officer answered. There was another wall phone on the premises, which did not ring while they were in the apartment, he said. Joseph P, Mangan, QC, acting for Eng, reminded the court his client was a first offender and asked that a small fine be im- posed. He added that in a simi- lar case in this court a small fine had been imposed on another man recently which the Attorney General's office had seen fit not to appeal. SUBSTANTIAL BUSINESS Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck asked that the penalty be com- mensurate with the crime but added that he did not think it was an appropriate case for a jail sentence. Assuming the ac- cused was taking bets six days a week he must have been doing a _ substantial business. Mr. Affleck asked that a stiff fine be imposed. Magistrate Frank S. Ebbs, in sentencing Eng, said this type of offence had become a matter of much concern to the attorney general's office. It was now considered much more serious than a few years ago. An added charge of bookmaking against the accused was withdrawn at and Oshawa. the Crown's request.
