Driver Is Jailed IE For One Month A man, who admitted he had an "alcohol problem", was jailed for one month in Osh- awa Magistrate's Court Monday on a charge of being drunk in charge of a car, Frank ' Robertson, street east, guilty to the charge. He told the court he had pulled off to a private driveway because he felt drowsy and knew he shouldn't drive 'in that condi- tion. 29 Elgin '|lifé. At present it was claimed had pleaded not} ° A warning that residents of, Ontario must soon start clean- ing up after themselves was voiced by Ralph W. Harris, of Toronto, a well known conser- vationist, in an address here Monday. In an address at the Rotary Club luncheon, Mr. Harris ex- pressed the opinion that the fed- eral government should set up a Natural Resources Commission to co-relate procedures, free of political considerations, and cre- ate a master conservation plan for all of Canada. He urged his audience to drive for an asser- tion of public opinion which would bring action out of the present lethargy. UNHAPPY POSITION It was stressed that fertile soil, pure water and pure air are essential for the con- tinuance of the modern way of Ontario is not in a happy posi- tion in this regard. There are, Mr. Harris com- mented, 12.5 million acres of prime agricultural land in the province or two acres per head. However, 2.5 acres per head are needed to supply the needs of the people. In the past 50 years prime land has been taken over by the growth of industry and the spread of urban municipalities. As a result a million acres had been lost in the past 20 years. Asks Master Plan For Conservation It was predicted this loss in the The Oshawa Zimes next 20 years would be 2,000,000 acres. SEES GREATER DEMAND Resulting. from the lack of conservation streams were dry- ing up and the water table ir Southern Ontario is dropping at an alarming rate. As a re- sult the problem of distribution was a serious one. Mr. Harris predicted the demand for water would increase five times in the next 30 years. Pointing to the serious pollu- tion of boundary waters, the speaker said domestic sewage and industrial waste is ruining Lake Erie, and its future as a water supply is in doubt, "I'do not know of a stream that is not seriously polluted," , he 'continued. He said serious pockets of pollution . exist in Lake Ontario which might well drift to the intakes, of municipal waterworks plants. The problem, it was stressed, seems to be one of conflict and overlapping of political jurisdic- tions. The case of the Grand River was cited. The river flows through five counties, 30 town- ships and serves 2 sizeable communities with water. As a result the situation is compli- cated by the fact that locai gov- ernments as well as the prov- ince are involved. With 60 or 70 political groups involved it is difficult to arrive at a solu- tion and take action, Figures released Monday by the office of the Greater Osh- awa Community Chest reveal the appeal is now within $19,388 of its objective of $236,000. This amount remains to be raised be- fore the close of the campaign this coming Saturday. A total of $216,611.89 has been contributed.

SUGGESTED FRONT FOR OSHAWA AUTOMOTIVE MUSEUM Automotive Museum Perpetuates History Oshawa's citizens and North America's tourists will probably be able to visit the Oshawa Automotive Museum next sum- mer. The Oshawa Chamber of Commerce - sponsored museum will be located at 99 Simcoe street south, across from Me- morial Park. Ontario Government Museum Adviser James Gooding stated that the proposed location is ex- cellent as it is in the downtown area and close to all services required by visitors to the com- munity. The two-storey brick building has 25,000 square feet of floor space and adequate parking around it for 67 cars. TO PRESERVE HISTORY The Oshawa Chamber of Com- merce Museum Committee, headed by Herbert Robinson, believes the museum will pre- serve the history of the growth of the automotive industry in Oshawa and be a_ tangible "thank you" to Col. R. S, Mc- Laughlin for his vision and gen. ius in making Oshawa the dom- inating automiotive production centre of Canada. Exhibits will include speci- mens of the McLaughlin Buggy and the first gas buggies to be produced in Oshawa. Auto- motive parts and completed models indicating significant en- gineering advances on the road to the comfortable, powerful Baby Is Burned In Her Crib An 11-month-old child _re- ceived burns to the face and arms Monday night when the crib in which she was sleeping caught fire. Admitted to the Oshawa Gen- eral Hospital was Karen Ricci, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Antonio Ricci, 86 Brock street east. She was reported "resting. comfortably" in the hospital this morning. The baby's father told report- ers he heard the child cry in an upstairs room, When he went up to check, the room was fill- ed with flames and smoke. He said he "dived"? for the baby's crib and got the child out. All but one of Ricci's five other children were sleeping on the same floor. Carried to safe- ty by their mother and a visi- tor,: Norman Webster, were Deborah, 8; Pamela, 7; Antony, 5%; Fred, .4 and Paul 3. Fire Department officials said they believe the child's bed- ding caught fire from an eiec- tric vaporizer that was left on in the room, They said the fire was contained to the one room, causing $1,200 damage. The par- ents' bed, in the same room, also caught fire. Ricci said they had borrow- ed the vaporizer from neighbors because the baby had a cough. He said he had checked the baby's room ust an hour be- fore the fire started. They had planned to use the vaporizer in another room later, where one of the other children was sleep- ing. Toronto Stamp Club Guests In Oshawa The Oshawa Stamp Club, which meets every first and third 'Monday in the Children's Arena, was host recently to 20 members of the West Toronto Stamp Club. This is the fifteenth consecu- tive season of visits between the two clubs. To mark the occasion the club presented an exhibition of stamps for the members to view. Later an auc- tion, in which much fine mate- rial changed hands, was con- ducted by West Toronto, The evening. concluded with a buffet lunch. HERBERT ROBINSON E. F. ARMSTRONG motor vehicle of today will also be featured. Working on the theory that al- most everyone has some inter- est in automobiles, the commit- tee plans a section for classic, antique, custom and true hot- rod models: It is also hoped that some trucks will be dis- played. The advantages to the com- munity of Oshawa having an Automotive Museum. will be many, says the Chamber of Commerce. Foremost will be its attraction to tourists, who travel the higways in this direction in cars often made here. Many tourists who now whizz by on highway 401 or higway 2 on the way to some more highly publicized area will consider Oshawa 'a "must" stop. With good public relations and pub- licity, many citizens of nearby Toronto will be interested in visiting the museum. EDUCATIONAL VALUE Important, too, will be the con- tribution of the museum to the education of thousands of Osh- awa and district school children. One of the six planned sections of the museum will include edu- cational displays for students. Authoritative exhibit planning including advice from profes- sional people on art work, dis- plays, copy-writing and lighting is available in Oshawa. Inter esting and unique exhib.s should result, the committee be- lieves. Chamber of Commerce Presi- dent Gordon Riehl feels that through carefully constructed displays and properly chosen words, visitors will be compelled to regard the automobile story in a new light. They will learn how large a part cars play in the present and future. It is planned to have the ibits changed as often as feasible so° that visitors will see something different on each visit to the museum. : Edwin F. Armstrong, recently retired from General Motors, is acting as manager of the museum. Auto Impounded For Three Months An Oshawa man found guilty of impaired driving was jailed for 14 days, had his licence sus- pended for one year and his car impounded for three months in Magistrate's Court Monday. The court was told Nick Prod- aniuk, of 230 Ritson road south, was the driver of a car that col lided with another on Beatty avenue, Oct. 12, Robert Gibbs, driver of the other vehicle, testified he saw a car coming towards him on his side of the road about 11 p.m. He said he stopped his car and was struck in the front end by the other vehicle. He identified Prodaniuk as the other driver. Damage to his vehicle, he add- ed, totalled $387, Gibbs said Prodaniuk smelled strongly of alcohol and was un- steady on his feet. Constable A. E. Dowdall, who investigated the accident told the court Prodaniuk was drunk in his opinion at the time of the collision. Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck asked that Prodaniuk get a more severe punishment than would a first offender. Prodan- iuk was convicted in Toronto previously on a drunk driving offence. In his summing up, Defense Attorney George Boychyn said his client was prepared to plead CELEBRATING BIRTHDAYS Congratulations and best wishes to the following resi- dents of Oshawa and district who are celebrating their birthdays today: Darlene MacDonald, 824 Rowena street; Craig Mac- Leod, 814 Rossland road west and Joyce Harmer, 210 Tresane- Phone 723-3474. guilty to a charge of drunk drive ing but this was unacceptable to the Crown: He deplored the practice of refusing guilty pleas to drunk driving charges when impaired charges have been laid. Boychyn sai dhis protest may be "a voice in the wilder ness" but he said if he protests often and long enough some. thing might be done about the practice. He said the magistrate should be permitted to hear the evi- dence on the drunk -driving charge and could reduce it to one of impaired driving if he saw fit. Magistrate Ebbs said it is the Crown's discretion as to what charge is proceeded with.
