Mr. Reed, in his report, com- mented 1062 had been one of the most successful years in the club history. Forty-six stu- dent pilots, 'the same number as the previous year, gradu- ated. A record was set when 3,380 hours were flown in the aircraft based at the club. An increase was noted in the volume of recreational and other flying. Of particular note was the fact that monthly break- fast flights were held and that greater use was made of the club lounge. RECORD YEAR Another record set during the yeai was the attendance of more than 360 aircraft at the annual flyin breakfast. One of the happy events was the fly- ing circus, staged in co-opera- tion with the Rotary Club of Oshawa, when 33 crippled chil- dren were taken for flights by club pilots. History was made and much favorable publicity gained for the club when two members flew the plane "JFK" to Wash- ington and secured the signa- ture of President Joha F. Kennedy in their logbook. During the year repairs were made to the roofs of the hangar and the recreation hail. A Co- Pilots' Club was established and a course given for the wives and sweethearts of club Ss.

The Hayden Macdonald Tro- phy was presented by the donor to Stan Johnson who had the greatest number of cross- country hours flown during the year. | SEES BRIGHT FUTURE Mr Thomas, when he pre- sented the Grindley Trophy, foresaw a bright future for the Oshawa Flying Club. He felt the large attendance was indi- cative of the members' inter- ests in club. activities and that he training they recieved would stand them in good stead should there be a_ national emergency. It was predicted by Mr. Thomas that the lakeshore area from Cobourg to Toronto would be built up in. the next 50 years. This would result in a glut of traffic at the Toronto Inter- national Airport at Malton. The excess traffic might very well spill over into the Oshawa area. CERTIFICATES PRESENTED The presentation of private pilot's certificates was highlight- ed by the fact that two of the recipients were female mem- bers of the club.

Close to 100 men attended the first annual rally, held Saturday in the King Street United Church auditor- ium. Phil Spence, associate secre- \tary of the Board of Men, Unit- |ed' Church National Office, ask- ed the members if they were among the people who "'put on a Sunday face" that is differ- ent from the one seen by fam- ily, neighbors and fellow work. ers. "As a men's club, we can be the reaching arm that brings men: into contact with true Christian fellowship. If we are concerned with those already in close touch with the church, we are failing in the area of our major task," he said.

Canada's university students are taking up this challenge as they rea- lize more and more that they are citizens of the world and not just of Canada," said the Queen's University student. Mr. Isbister, who spent six weeks last summer in French West Africa, gave his observa- tions of what the new interna- tional organizations, without political affiliatiqn, can do. As one of 300 Canadian and United States university stu. dents who took part in the Crossroads Africa plan, he told how their program of building, learning, teaching and making friends had an impact on the natives of one small village. "Thirteen of us were lodged in Senegal. Our building proj- ect was to construct the first dormitory of a little school that will be used to teach 18 and 19- year-old boys the basic skills of masonry, agriculture and me- chanics. "Fifteen African students worked with us, and by the end of the six weeks, we: had all learned a great deal about each other.

Phone 723-3474, "The should be teaching'? was the subject of an address given to the Unitarian Fellowship of Osh- awa, Sunday, Jan. 20, by Mrs. Doris E. Dodds, president of the Ethical Education Associa- tion. The EEA was formed in 1959 as a on-political non-profit, inter-religious group with the following aims: To promote in the public schools: religious and racial un- derstanding; improved teaching of moral and ethical values; abolition of instruction in any one particular religious doc- trine; and improved teaching of all subjects, so that students may be better prepared for citienship in a world com- munity. At. present the law provides a unique opportunity for making contact with every child in On- tario, an advantage often envied by such groups as temperance associations and the Chamber of Commerce with its "Opera- tion Freedom". Mrs. Dodds pointed out that no one doublts that the objectives are worthy, but she felt the methods were dubious. were dubious. Ontario is the only province in which religious instruction must be given unless. the parents of a child ask for exemption. A FAR CRY This is a far cry from the Public Schools Act of 1858, which required that religious exercises be held each morning, and that "students should be allowed to receive such religious instruction as their parents or guardians desire'. For almost 100 years this instruction was given after school by a local clergyman. However, in 1944 the depart- ment of Education secured the passing of regulations calling for two half-hour periods of in- struction per week "It shall be given unless exemption is re- quested "" The content is not' specified, Mrs. Dodds said, although cer- tain teachers' aids are avail- able, providing what she termed a course in compromised Pro- testantism." On the other hand, the pur- pose is clearly defined. It is the teaching of the Christian faith, religion our --schools| Should Evaluate Basic Values to an acceptance of the historic Christian faith. Mrs. Dodds stressed at this point the distincion between providing knowledge and at- tempting to involve children in the acceptance of a faith. She feels very strongly that a public imstitution which is tax - supported should not be doing this. Children exempted from the religious education periods are missing a total of two weeks of schooling in each school year. Also, the child who has to get up and leave a class feels that he is not one of the "in group", the majority who are conforming. RIGHTS GUARANTEED Mrs. Dodds believes that de- mocracy guarantees certain rights to every individual, and quoted Professor J. Seeley as saying that the majority has a duty to safeguard the rights of the minority. The principle of the separa- tion of Church and State is vio- lated, in Mrs. Dodds' opinion, by the use of tax dollars for the teaching of the religion of one denomination Next Mrs Dodds considered what should replace the present system, : She pointed out that most o' us have two religions, the one we profess and the one we live by. Of these the second is the more important. Behaviour pat- terns are set in childhood, and researchers have found that it is not so much what a child is told to do which influences him as what he sees others doing. He is influences by his own na- tive imtelligence, by his social and economic background, by the behavious of his associates, and by the co-operative attitude of his parents and teachers. There is a need, Mrs. Dodds explained, for living and learn- ing together. Students should be allowed to evaluate truths and basic values for themselves. The classroom should be geared to community spirit, with students all working together, and feeling able to participate in free and open discussion on all subjects. Because systems are changed by people, she urged that people make their views known to trustees and those groups which are concerned with education. We must support tHe education which -helps children discover with the aim of leading children lasting values-stemming from Bridge Club High Scores Following are the winners and high scores of the games played last week by the mem- bers of the Oshawa, Brooklin and General Motors Duplicate Bridge Clubs: OSHAWA Mrs § Sheridan and Mrs. M.
