George Scott, of Bloor street west, Oshawa ornithologist, re-| ports very interesting findings) as a result of his regular au- thorized visits to the Oshawa marshes. * The most interesting find of the summer was three nests containing eggs of the Little Gull. This was the first record- ed nesting of The Little Gull on this continent. The Latin name of this gull is 'Larus Minutus." It is the smallest gull in exist- ence, being about 11 inches in length. The normal range is in Europe and Asia, but the Little ull has been seen occasionally alon the coasts of New Eng- land and the Great Lakes. Other nests discovered in the marshes by Mr. Scott were one of the Least Bittern, which raised four young, and the Marsh Hawk, which raised) three young. A nest of the Short Billed Marsh Wren con- tained six eggs which. were| later destroyed by predators. Other interesting bird rarities} observed this summer were a White - Eyed Vireo, Blue-grey Gnat Catcher, Glossy Ibis, King Rail and Franklin's Gull.

The audience was agog, be- cause moments before they'd watched as Mr, McGugan rattled off the names of people he'd met earlier and amazed them with a mental trick using a magazine. He passed around the dining hall, pages from a recent maga- zine, then invited watchers to test his powers of recall by giv- ing him page numbers and ask- ing him what was on them.

Both Mr. Downey and Mr. Ormiston are members of the Milk Foundation of Toronto. Mr. Downey works in Toronto and Mr. Ormiston shipped his milk to the Toronto market. Mr. Downey was born and raised on a farm at Myrtle He later attended the Whitby) High School.

Indeed, some reports say that witchcraft is enjoyng a re- vival. Belief in the black arts per- sists in modern industrial coun- tries as well as remote unso- phisticated villages. A Scotland Yard official be- lieves that there is more black magic in Great Britain now than in the Dark Ages. A_ self- proclaimed witch has warned that British witches might "raise a cone of power" to pre- vent nuclear war. CRONES ON BROOMSTICKS In Germany, where thousands still scan the heavens for crones on broomsticks, charges of witchcraft frequently reach the courts, and books on black magic are best sellers. A woman in a Russian village asked for police protection because her neighbors were convinced she was a witch and wanted her to hex their enemies. In New York City, a doctor watched helplessly as life slipp- ed away from a patient who be- lieved himself under a_ fatal spell. An autopsy disclosed no disease. Despite these cases, the mod- ern age is skeptical of witch- craft, though, song writers may refer to that old black magic, But for untold generations most people believed strongly in the black arts. Basically, belief in witches arises from nothing more sinis- ter than man's earnest efforts to understand the world around him and make it work for him instead of against him. Early men who fell sick knew nothing of bacteria and viruses. To ex- plain their misfortune, they de- veloped the theory that an enemy was somehow injuring them. They began trying to injure others by magical means, such as making an image of hated man and sticking pins in it. If a victim learned tha' a spell was being worked against him, Accident Factor A collision between two cars, at the intersection of William street and Ritson road, resulted in $350 damage today. Drivers involved were Martin Tessier, of 239 Roxborough ave- nue and Ross C. Heasman, of Omemee. The accident took place at ap- proximately 6.40 a.m. The police said the pavement was wet at the time, it was raining and CELEBRATING BIRTHDAYS Congratulations and best wishes to the following resi- dents of Oshawa and district who are celebrating their birthdays today: Linda Arsenault, 769 Cam- bridge Court.

Ironically, in the 16! and 17th centuries, when the Res naissance and the New Science began to spread, the infamous oe persecutions occurf: ed. - It was an age of social ype heaval; the Reformation had split Europe into warrin camps. In this time of tension. and unrest, popular wrath turne ed on women who, for oné reason or another, had aroused distrust. They were accused of dealing with the Devil, and 300,000 were put to death.
