2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, July 13, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN OSGOODE'S "GOLDEN - AGE" CLUB Two Oshawa men who entered Osgoode Hall Law School last September after being out of school for several years got some good news the other day -- they passed their first year exams. They are Rev. Darren Michael, director of public af- fairs for the Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Canada; and Fred Jones, former city realtor and brother of Lawyer Ralph Jones. Mr. Darren said that there were more than 7 class- mates in the same "above $9" age-group as himself, including a former German U-boat skipper -- 80 out of a class of 140 were success- ful in all exams (including Mr. Michael and Mr. Jones) -- an additional 20 will carry one supplemental. Mr. Michael said that the toughest part about get- ting back to school was to "learn to discipline one- self' in the way of study and concentration. This so-called "over-age" group is known at Osgoode Hall as 'The Golden Age Club"'. He has some advice for youngsters who are think- ing of quitting school: "Don't do it," he advises. REV. DARREN MICHAEL "No matter how tough you think it is now, it will be a lot toughter to buckle down to hard study when you are older, when your mind is less flexible." Joseph Victor, the former Oshawa alderman who went back to school after an absence of more than 20 years to get his B.A. and graduate from Osgoode, will be called to the Bar next year.

Mr. Diefenbaker has given no hint when he may name suc- cessors to Solicitor - General Browne from Newfoundland, Works Minister Walker from Ontario and Postmaster-General William Hamilton, Mines. Min- ister Flynn-and State Secretary Dorion from Quebec. Mr. Dorion has already re- signed and Transport Minister Balcer has taken on his duties on an acting basis, The other four ministers are expected to resign before long. Political circles in Ottawa seem to share Mr. Diefen- baker's view that there is no immediate urgency about the appointments since there has been comparatively little specu- lation -- usually rife whenever there are cabinet vacancies-- about possible choices. MAY SHIFT OTHERS There has been no clue as to whether Mr. Diefenbaker will Birth Control Pills Proving Big Nuisance CHICAGO (AP)--A gynaeco- logist says birth control pills have proved a virtually intoler- able nuisance to some women but apparently are reliably ef- ~ |fective if used correctly. Ernest H. J. Steed, a minister of the Seventh-Day Ad- *yentist Church from Australia was Mr. Michael's guest this week Mr. Steed (who is also editor of "'Alert", an Australian Health and Temperance monthly publication), said that Aus- tralia had more than 300,000 alcoholics out of a population of approximately 11,000,000. He said that one out of 14 lly b hali and that this "social drinkers" ev point was causing concern to many in Australia, including the clergy. He is director of the Institute of Scientific Studies for the Prevention of Alcoholism -- the group is busy now promoting what Mr. Steed calls "Fruit Juice Parties" for young people. The Institute hopes to help decrease the widespread use of alcohol and has already made much progress, especially on university and school campuses where 'Fruit Juice Parties" are becoming quite a fad. Mr. Steed also pointed out 47 percent of Australians over 18 never touch alcohol, despite the above figures. JAYCEES TO FETE QUEBEC STUDENTS HERE Local 222, UAW-CLC held a special picnic last Tuesday in Orillia for members who are retired (and their wives)-- more than 260 occupied five buses for the trip that was under ' the direction of President Malcolm Smith and Vice-President Russell McNeil . . . Students from Quebec will arrive here Tuesday (at the CNR Station at 5:20 p.m. DST) to start their two-week visit as part of the Ontario-Quebec Student Ex- change. The Oshawa Jaycees will pay most of the cost for entertainment (parents of the Oshawa students and the Canadian Council of Christians and Jews will help). The stu- dents and their parents are contacted originally by the CCCJ, which sponsors the program in co-operation with the Jaycees ... Members of the Oshawa C of C and their wives will visit the gardens at Parkwood, the beautiful Oshawa estate of Col. R. S: McLaughlin August 14. OCVI JOB TO COST $205,000 The Board of Education has asked the City to issue a $205,000 debenture to pay for alterations to OCVI. The sum is broken up this way: General contractor -- H. M. Brooks Ltd. $80,276.00 7 percent fee for supervision of the mechanical Plumbing and heating ~-- H. R. Stark Ltd. Electrical -- Hill Cornish Electrie Architect's fee -- 10 per cent Furniture and equipment Contingency reserve and electrical contracts $4,681.00 $84,957.93 $43,203.50 $23,681.17 $151,842.60 $15,184.26 $34,500.36 $3,473.14 $205,000.00 The original bids received from the successful bidders were as follows: H. M. Brooks Ltd., H. R. Stark Ltd., Hill Cornish Electric $99,000.00 $53,858.00 $30,623.00 These bids were reduced after the Board decided that they were above the amount budgeted for the job. DOUGLAS FISHER HAS A SON The happiest fellow in Oshawa Wednesday was General- Manager Douglas Fisher of the Oshawa C of C -- his wife, Isabel, presented him with a new son (Kevin), who weighed in at the Oshawa General Hospital as eight pounds, three ounces. They have three other children. TALK OF THE TRACKS STILL FILLS THE AIR SEEN DINING IN THE HOTEL GENOSHA TUESDAY NOON: Mayor Christine Thomas (who will fly to her former home in Dundee, Scotland, Monday for a visit) and .the three members of her recently-appointed committee whose job it is to gather pertinent facts quickly on the controver- sial King street CNR tracks issue in the hope that the matter can be quickly solved -- Aldermen E. F. Bastedo, Finley Dafoe and Walter Branch. COUNCIL SLOWDOWN DUE IN AUGUST The chances are good that there will be no Open meet- ings of City Council during the hot vacation doldrums of August -- at least eight of the 13 members of Council will be out of town at some time or other during that period, so that a quorum will be hard to obtain if present plans mater- ialize. This seems like too long a period to go without an open meeting, even if Council will have some committee meet- ings during that time -- Oshawa is too big a City to b eleft under a skeleton Council staff for four weeks even in the month of August. : Peterborough City Council has regular open meetings during the Summer 'season and that is the way it should be, especially in a City that has a population well in excess af Pétgrborough's. i Commenting upon reports by jthree clinical studies which in- |volved use of oral contracep- |tives by a total of 1,645 women, |\Dr. Edwin J. DeCosta of Chi- jeago said complete safety of jthe method cannot be consid- lered proved because the long- jest period of study on their ef- |fects covers only seven years. | "There is no indication of any jserious long or short-term dele- jterious effects," Dr. DeCosta jsaid, but he also noted "'it is lquite impossible for anyone to say whether or not an ultimate risk is involved" in use of the | pills. | Dr. DeCosta, associate profes- sor of obstetrics and gynaeco- jlogy at Northwestern Univer- |sity, discussed use of birth con- trol pills in an article for the Journal of the American Medi- cal Association. USED IMPROPERLY | Discussing tests of the steriod jhormones norethynodrel and \norethindrone, the effective ovu- lation blockers in various oral contraceptives, he noted some pregnancies occurred among women taking the drugs. He said pregnancy "is invariably blamed upon failure to use the pills properly." "It is very easy to forget to take the pills or to err in tim- ing," he noted. The proper time, doctors said, is from the fifth through the 24th day of the menstrual cycle. Nuisance side-effects, Dr. De- Costa said, led about half of the physicians with whom he dis- cussed the pills to discourage their patients from using them. "Most of the complaints are similar to those of early preg- nancy," he said, "namely fa- tigue, nausea, vomiting, bloat- ling, lower abdominal distress, jfuliness of the breasts and) |weight gain." \ Cabinet Problem Now Facing Dief most --, cabinet recon-| might struction problems since he simply appoint men to the va- cancies or whether other cab- inet shifts will be involved as well. Some sources speculate that the 24 - member cabinet be reduced to 23 by com- bining the secretary of state and solicitor-general portfolios, or by assigning the solicitor- general's duties to the justice' ministry, now held by Hon. Davie Fulton. Canadian tradition makes the formation of a federal cabinet more complicated than select- ing en men with the re- quired rative and par- liamentary skill. A prime min- ister also has an eye to balanc- ing representation regionally' and seeing that French Canada has a voice in shaping policy. All provinces are represented in the present cabinet. Ontario has seven ministers, Quebec six, Manitoba, Saskatchewan apiece, the others one. --Mr. Flynn and Defence Pro- have Irish names. The other, Mr. Hamilton, has a British family background. FEW CANDIDATES If Mr. Diefenbaker decides to maintain Quebec cabinet mem- bership at six, he has a limited selection for the three vacancies since the province elected only 14 Conservatives June 18 against 50 in 1958. The only one with an English family back- ground is Heward Grafftey, 33- year-old member for Brome- Missisquoi. In Newfoundland, barring a turnover in a recount in Mr. Browne's St. John's West seat, member--30-year-old John Mc- Grath. Of Ontario's seven ministers, five come from the Hamilton- Toronto-Oshawa area and the others from the southwestern Ontario ridings of Perth and London. There have been pressures for appointment of a ministers from eastern Ontario which has sparked speculation that Rich- ard A. Bell of Carleton might be considered. He has been par- liamentary secretary to Fi- nance Minister Fleming. Another name mentioned fre- quently is Wallace Nesbitt of Oxford, who has been parlia- mentary secretary to both the prime minister and External Affairs Minister Green. Inquest Ordered In Death Of Five KITCHENER (CP)--An_in- quest into the slaying of a Kitchener couple and their three children will be held July 20, Deputy Police Chief Ewan Cameron said Thursday. The five were found dead in their home June 28. Deputy Chief Cameron said at the time: "It was all the appearances of a murder-sui- cide." Neil, 4, Steven, 3, and Rus- sell, nine months, were found drowned in the bathtub. Wal- ter Brown, the father, was shot and his wife was stabbed to death.

United States space scientists could not account for the up- surge, thousands of times more intense than normal cosmic ray bombardment. On Nov. 12, 1961, the satellite Discoverer 17, a practice space capsule which the U.S. put into orbit and later retrieved, was found to be seriously contami- nated with radioactivity result- ing from solar cosmie ray bombardment. In the meantime, physicists of Canada's Defence Research' board advanced a theory that the earth's motion in the sun- earth atmosphere creates a shock wave 48,000 to 60,000 miles beyond the earth, much as a supersonic plane creates a sonic boom. They also concluded that the shock wave of a plasma cloud given off by the sun would collide with the earth's shock lick out and which can be observed from earth. But they don't al- es follow a large solar flare, an why. Cosmic Ray Idea Backs Space Find in northern latitudes, thus blacking out communications. The solar cosmic rays are re- stricted to high latitudes by the earth's magnetic field until the plasma cloud's shock wave -- down the magnetic bar- er. The potential dapger of solar could cosmic rays to juts be avoided, Dr. Paghis said, if their arrival in space could be predicted. There is one hitch. The rays usually follow solar flares, enor- mous t of fiery gas which m the sun's surface so far scientists gon't know Solar activity runs in 1-year cycles, The next most active pe- riod for the sun will be 1967-71, just about the time when at- tempts will be made to put a man on the moon. Dr. Paghis said by the time an astronaut is ready for a moon trip it may be possible to know exactly how to avoid the rays. wave, resulting in an accelera- tion of solar cosmic rays. The theory developed by Drs. George Reid, 32, and Ian Ax- ford, 29, and the observations made by the two satellites came together at the April meeting this year of the Amer- ican Geophysical Union in Washington. They fitted per- fectly. Seaman of Unionville, Ont., north of Toronto, --(CP Wirephoto) the Conservatives have only one British Cabinet Shuffle Seen In Few Weeks LONDON (Reuters) -- A re- shuffle in the British govern- ment 's forecast in political cir- cles as likely in the next few weeks. It thought probable that Prime Minister Macmillan will announce changes in his admin- istration before Parliament rises for its summer recess at the beginning of August. One usually well - informed source said Macmillan will in- clude several major offices in his reshuffle. Changes in the government have been expected for some time but hitherto they had not been expected before October in readiness for the new session of Parliament that opens in No- vember. However, recent bydlection setbacks have been followed by increasing demands from Con- servative members of parlia- ment for new faces as well as policies in the government. MENTION THREE NAMES The three biggest names to be the subject of speculation in political circles are those Home Secretary Butler, Chan- cellor of the Exchequer Lloyd and House leader Iain Macleod. Butler, besides his home of- fice post, has over-all respon- sibility for Britain's planned en- try to the European Common Market. It was thought that the prime minister might relieve him of his duties at the home office and put him in charge of a special department concerned with Common Market affairs. | Ge WEATHER FORECAST Forecasts issued by Toronto weather office at 5 a.m. Synopsis: Today and Satur- day will be sunny with pleasant temperatures in most regions.

Ottawa Montreal Quebec Halifax se ee 58 eee ENDANGERS ASTRONAUTS INTERPRETING THE NEWS By HAROLD MORRION Canadian Press Staff Writer It may be more than coinci- dence that U.S. State Secretary Rusk hints at the possibility of new Western concessions on a nuclear test ban treaty just as the U.S. nears the end of the _---- tests it began April Aside from one or two more possible attempts to explode thermonuclear weapons at high altitude, the United States ap- parently is at or near the end of its mid-Pacific testing activ- ity and ready to concentrate on the disarmament conference with reopens at Geneva Mon day. Rusk now states that the pre- liminary results: of seismic ex- periments conducted by the de- fence department give hope that the West can reduce its de- ds for contrq] posts and on- site inspection as a vital part of any international ban treaty. CURIOUS TIMING The curious. part of this an- nouncement by the state secre- tary is that it came on the day announced the end of testing on Christmas {sland and curtail- of ment of activity on Johnston Is- land. Johnston Island is used for high - altitude experiments. Rusk says the Pentagon's pre- liminary findings on seismic in- strumentation do not eliminate entirely the need for some con- trol posts and periodic inspec- tion in such a large country as the Soviet Union. But he hints the number of both could be re- duced from what the West pre- viously requested. This would help close the gap in East-West differences which have long blocked agreement on putting an end to military nu- clear explosions. But it won't close the gap, adds Rusk, if Russia persists in keeping its doors closed entirely against some international inspection. The United States now ap- pears to be attempting to shift some of the onus for making parallel concessions onto Rus- sia -- and back up the conten- Two Bodies Found In Rooming House BUFFALO (AP)--The bodies of two men, bearing gunshot wounds, were found in the hall- way of a rooming house Thurs- day in what police described as: a murder-suicide.

This strategy seems just a lit- tle too apparent, a little too slick. The question immediately arises as to whether the Penta- gon could have made its conclu- sions on seismic detection im- provements earlier. Was there, in fact, strong interdepartmen- tal co - operation to facilitate the timing of the Pentagon's conclusion? CLOSED BOOK Perhaps the public will never know. But it was apparent all through, the testing period that there was such co - operation-- even to the point where officials formerly eager to reveal the latest radioactivity figures sud- denly becoming silent. The tests, of course, were un- dertaken in the name of mili- tary security and undoubtedly in the eyes of the Pentagon Dr. Irvine Paghis, head of the radio physics laboratory where the Scottish-born Dr. Reid and New Zealand-born Dr. Axford worked out their theory, said solar cosmic ray events present a potential radioactive hazard to space travellers--even to the men now making earth orbits. However, solar cosmic ray events are relatively infrequent. Only about a dozen have heen recorded as reaching the earth. About 100 events have been re- corded in all in the last 11 years. Those not reaching the earth's surface are stopped in the ionosphere, where they ab- sorb radio waves like a sponge U.K. Sub Deal May Be Ended ~ By Austerity OTTAWA (CP) -- Canada's proposed submarine deal with Britain may be washed out by the austerity program. Defence Minister Harkness announced three months ago that three Oberon class conven- tional submarines would be pur- chased from Britain "subject to satisfactory completion of nego- boven ge] with the British govern- ment." The negotiations concern Brit- ish purchases of defence equip- ment in Canada of approxi- mately equal value to the $30, 000,000 submarine order.
