@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondey, December 10, 1962 [Rickard Attacks Durham Member ORONO (Staff--Garnet Rick- ard, Progressive Conservative candidate for Durham in the next federal election, accused Russell C. Honey, MP, of mis- leading the public and the press on the dairy and beef farming problem. Speaking at the annual meet- ing of the Clarke Township Pro- gressive Conservative Associa- tion here Friday night, Mr. Ric. kard said, "'it's the net figures he should have presented, not debate on this subject, I am willing to any time and a place," said Mr, Rickard, "'be- cause I have the figures to back it up." Mr. Rickard went on to say, "comparisons can be mislead- ing, an is only fair to point farmer switches from dairy pro-| out Pe i 1958, 0 and '60. the duction to beef production he| average gross income in agri- will peer double the amount Of| culture was about $351,000,000 land and twice as many COWS|higher each year than it was in in order to maintain the same /ihe previous four years.

A crowd of 74,000 was the) estimate of Pu.ice Chief Ber-| nard Kitney -- the most people) to converge upon the town at/ one time in Bowmanville's his-| tory. Mayor and Mrs. Ivan Hobbs Jed the parade in the official ear, an open convertible, driven by Harold Kennett and flanked by Michael Murphy, parade marshals. Behind the official car were the colorful Governor General's Horse Guards, nine of them mounted. It marked the first time in the Guard's history since they were formed in 1794, that they have performed at something other than a regal or vice-regal function. The Guards, led by Major Peter Hunter, could be seen far along the parade route, with their glittering silver helmets and blue with gold braid uni- forms. They were cheered from the start to the finish of the parade by children getting their first glimpse of one of Canada's! oldest regiments. MORE THAN HOUR The magnificent procession took more than an hour to pass one spot. Beautiful girls, gaily decorated floats, cartoon char- acters, and bands from the central part of the province highlighted the parade with the feature attraction at the tail end; the Santa Claus float with jolly old St. Nicholas with floating white beard and dazz- ling red suit, above the crowd on his -sleigh. Eight prancing reindeer and Feely elfs, Nancy Woolsey, inda Steel, Janette Marsden and June Bain, made the float a big success. Construction of the Santa Claus float was the project of the boys at the Bow-| manville Training School. Following the Governor Gen.| eral's Horse Guards was the 72- piece Georgina Township boys'| and girls' police fife and drum band. Next was the Bowman. ville St. Joseph's Roman Catho- lic Church's nativity scene fcoat followed by large headed car- toon characters. Then came the Snow Queen float; a large polar bear draw- ing a sleigh carrying pretty Carolyn Tennant. Oshawa Sea Cadets trumpet band was next, flanked by the Sailorettes, a majorette troup from the same city. The Old King Cole float had George Kennett as the merry old soul, with Marg Cor. den and Karen Barraball as his fiddlers. Ray Cochrane and son with their pony-drawn cart, was dressed as a Mexican and clown, and more comic heads were right behind.

A highlight of the parade was the Belleville Works Depart- ment's Flintstone car. It con- sisted of two huge barrels, pro- pelled by a hidden jeep. Bear and deer skins that smelled as though they had not been cured, were spread about the pre-| historic car. | The Bowmanville Legion Pipe Band was next to add a Scottish flair to the parade, followed by the Orono Garden Club's Peace on Earth floa and more cartoon characters. Then came Little Toot, a tugboat float from Belleville and the Brenda Ar- cher majorettes from the same city. They were flanked by the Peterborough Musketeers, a trumpet band dressed in blue uniforms with red plumes. | Helen Bickle was the fvature of the Sleeping Beauty float, with Hank Janten as prince charming.

Bowmanville's fife and drum band dressed in clown outfits came next, followed by the Queen of Hearts float with pretty Eileen Rahm and page girls Lorraine White and Jenny Stout, and the Caterpillar, oper- ated by Al Mundy and his 10 helpers. Then there was another group of majorettes from Belleville; Pickering township trumpet band; Man in the Moon. float from Belleville; a mock Indian tribe on horseback; and two young lads, Danny Lemon and Tommy Carter, dressed as con. victs and pulling a street clean- ing barrel. It was their job to clean up after the horses, which proved to be a full time job and a barrel of fun.

Credit for the second annual Bowmanville parade should go to the whole Santa Claus parade} committee, and Carson Elliott,| general manager this year. Bowmanville Police Denart-| ment with help from the OPP did a magnificent job in controll- ing traffic both before and after! the parade.
