NHITBY and DISTRICT Many Trophies A Whitby Bureau Office: 111 Dundas St. West Manager: Lloyd Robertson Tel. MO. 8-3703 PRESENT ROTARY PUBLIC SPEAKING TROPHY One of the latest services | Public Speaking contest performed by the Rotary Club of Whitby is the presentation | as a dinner speaker, of a trophy for Ontario County Junior Farmers' Association | On Tuesday the Rotary Club had Miss Donna Johnson, a Port Perry public school teacher, who won the public speaking con- test this year. Pictured above, left to right, are Lynne Fair, Dept. of Agriculture repre- sentative for the county; Miss WHITBY SPORTS PARADE By GERRY BLAIR The gutted sticks are prominent these days at the Whitby Community arena now that the milder weather has entered the picture and hockey, although still active in other parts of the province, has vacated the local front. Brooklin Senior lacrosse club held its initial workout on Sunday afternoon at the Community with 18 aspirants at- fending, mainly from this area. Most of the imports have not reported as yet, while still more are being sought by manager Alvin Puckrin as he strives to improve on last season's fine club which lost out in a seven-game semi- final series with Brampton. The most outstanding per- former was last year's club which had its debut into Senior competition, Terry Davis, the league's leading scorer, will not be back. Davis was lured to the West Coast by one of the Mann Cup competitors after receiving the green light from the OLA Brooklin coach Jim Cherry was moderately with the opening day turnout, considering the league open- er is over a month away. Cherry stated that by the ap- pearance of some of the players at Sunday's workout they should just about be ready for game number one after shedding excess poundage. "Tip" Vipond worked out with the club and if his interest continues enough to eventually join the club, he will be a definite asset. Four players inked their 1962 contracts Sunday; goaltender Pat Baker, defencemen Roy Woods and Charlie Grandy, and outstand- Two of the greatest players in Canadian alcrosse the Peterborough championship era, Bob Curtis and Bob Allen are presently being wooed by manager Pucrkin to return to action after two years' retirement pleased ing local product of the forward line, Don Craggs. from fine Port Credit Sailors, the club deprived of a trip to Western Canada last season for the Mann Cup finals after an upset victory by Brampton Ramblers, open the 1962 OLA Senior season in Brooklin, Wednesday, May 30, and also close it out in Brooklin August 18. Missing from this year's league will be Niagara Falls Scobies now defunct after only one season of Senior competition. Lack of finan- cial aid, and suitable calibre players led to the demise of Niagara Falls. They finished a sad last with only three victories in their first attempt at the higher classification after elevating from Intermediate "A'. This year, only four » clubs comprise the Senior bracket Brooklin, St Catharines, Brampton, and Port Credit. Practices for the Brooklin club continue this week on Wednesday and Fri- day nights at 8 p.m. It will probably be another two weeks before the team moves into the Brooklin arena be- cause of the present damp floor. TOWN AND COUNTRY . . . Oddly enough the Stanley Cup champion Toronto Maple Leafs failed to place a man on the first All-Star team, but managed three, Carl Brewer, Frank Mahovlich and Dave Keon on the second squad Second game of the Memorial Cup finals goes tonight between Hamilton and Edmonton, to be play ed in Guelph. Oi] Kings' manager Leo LeClerc wants the remaining games scheduled for Maple Leaf Gardens. He and Red Wing leader Eddie Bush took verbal swats at each other, yesterday, hoping to drum up further interest should Hamilton take another convincing victory tonight Future games' attendance would likely dip considerably without these added side highlights between the two mentors.

A few coal-waste hills have been levelled and made into playing jelds. But the main factor in the change is the emphasis on manufacturing instead of coal mining. | In parts of The Rhondda new factories are springing up in the shadow of derelict old collieries, fearsome stone monuments to the past where men and boys worked in the pits 12 hours a day for £2 a month. | Hard by are the drab miners' cottage to which the men once wended their weary way home, |their way lit only by their Davy lamps, and where women Reasons for the fresh neW/waited, aprons outstretched to! leollect the week's wages. FEW OPEN SPACES The houses--miles of them \joined end to end along the main streets--are still there and almost pathetic attempts have been made to take the gloom off them with bright-painted window frames and doors. The jlay of the land is such that there are few open spaces in the |steep, narrow valleys to build. Rehousing would involve tear- ing down the rows of stone land--but The Rhondda is not ~|yet prosperous enough for that. Now the women of the valleys go out to work---unheard of in the old coal-mine economy--in plants making everything from music strings to zippers. So far, the new industrializa- tion spreading over South Wales has not penetrated the valleys as much as the British Board of Trade--a government depart- ment--would like. Because the valleys run north and south, travel and movement of materials in east-west direc- tions is next to impossible. This and the traditional Welsh love of community have kept many people high in the north end of the valleys. Now the board is seeking to bring the industry to) them, and in some cases has built factories on speculation and then found tenants for them. MANY HAVE LEFT But many others have grad- ually left the valleys for indus- trial work elsewhere in South Wales, particularly in Britain's industrial showplace--the Steel! /ompany of Wales at Port! Talbot which employs 17,000 and produces 60,000 tons a week Strangely enough, in a iand bent on modern. industrializa- tion, the Welsh have shown little tribute to the 253 polling sta- tions in the riding for the June 18 federal elections.

Almost all exee- utives and top technicians are from outside Wales and voca- tional training schools consist jently have fewer students than they could accommodate. | The drop in coal production jis due in part to diminishing |markets and also to overwhelm- jing competition from the United |\States and other places where automation and coal in far broader veins make mining more economical. | Recently the Steel Company 'of Wales proposed importing |U.S. coal which, they discov- ered, could be delivered at 30 shillings a ton cheaper than Welsh coal, But the National Coal Board squelched that idea. 50-Year-Old Crackers Said Tasty | TORONTO (CP)--Eight-year collieries are finding other|houses and building on the same|°/d Joe MacBean has been get- jting his teeth into history. | He ate some 50 - year - old crackers left in the Arctie by lexplorer Admiral R, FE. Peary during his dash to the North 'Pole in 1908-09, "Not bad at all,"' was his pro- jnouncement on the king - size soda crackers. | Dennis Stapleton, 24, who works for the defence depart- }ment at Alert on the north coast jof Ellesmere Island in the Northwest Territories, found the crackers in a food cache while on an expedition. Dennis and five friends went exploring to relieve the bore- dom in the far north. They bor- rowed a snowmobile and fol- lowed Peary's route. About 35 miles west of Alert they stopped in an area where Peary's party had camped to repair their sleds. There they found broken sled runners and a crate bearing the admiral's |name. Farther west they found a can of kerosene and the food. Dennis sent the crackers to Joe, his half-brother.
