Cliff Pilkey in Oshawa City Council Monday night. "Td rather be old-fashioned and pay as I go, than be modern and head over heels in debt," said His Worship. Added Ald, Pilkey: "I'm op-| posed to. general purpose rooms as long as there are portables in use in Oshawa, Getting kids in classrooms is first. A general purpose room in every school would be nice. We can't afford it." Council easily gave its ap- proval to the board's 1963 de- benture budget: $85,000 for a four-room addition at Adelaide McLaughlin Public School and $119,000 for four rooms and the general purpose room at Dr. C. F. Cannon Public School. Ald. Walter Branch, council finance chairman, said savings amounting to $10,000 were ef- fected in Adelaide McLaughlin School by dropping such things @s Gluminum® windows, 'library materials, terrazzo corridor floors, sinks, toilets, basins -- and substituting convectors for unit ventilators. Similarly, $7000 was cut off the bill for the Cannon School addition. Ald. Branch said the general purpose room would be used for art, music, drama, safety train- jeducation training. |ROOM NOT NEEDED | "I'm very pleased board members sharpened their pen- \cils," acknowledged Mayor Gif- ford. "'They could have reduc- ed the issue $30,000 more by taking off that general purpose room. "I don't believe it is needed; many schools are without them. Ald. Pilkey appealed to board members to meet with architects and go over school plans in at- tempts to cut costs through de- sign changes. One money-saving technique suggested by Ald. Pilkey: "toi- lets at both ends of a school? Put them in the middle and everybody can walk. No one will have to walk further than one- half the length of the school." (Ald. Branch quoted Public School Superintendent Dr. C. M. Elliott as saying this would cause congestion). NOT SO LAVISH Ald. Finley Dafoe pointed cut it might be difficult to elimin- até portables altogether. "Sub- divisions spring up overnight," he said. "Build general purpose rooms in basements and don't furnish them so lavishly," he suggested. "Romper rooms," said Ald. John Dyer in describing the general purpose rooms. But he was sympathetic to the board while making it clear he would Pastor Accepts Shelburn At a congregational meeting Sunday night, March 31, in Trin- ity United Church, Shelburne, presided over by a member of the Dufferim-Peel Presbytery, the Rev.

"I'm convinced a general purpose room is as necessary ei a classroom," he told coun- cil. | "Even if you don't have the |money?" asked Mayor Gifford) NOT CONVINCED | "There is no indication they can't get the money," answer- ed Ald. Dyer. "I think they made a mistake in cutting. They, themselves, are not con- vinced the cuts will be econom- ical." (The estimate was $30,000 to build the general purpose room now; $56,000 to build it later. Gold-studded? Ald. Pilkey want- ed to know). "Our complaints made the Board sit down and think," said Ald. Dyer; "'this will have re- sults in the future. But they had no real justification for these cuts."' Said Ald. Tom Rundle: "I have been shown ways the rard could osts. But the building stanu.rds they have to observe do. not allow them."

The company was established as an engraving company to serve the pririting trade in 1950 by D. C. Brooks and R. M. Hall of Oshawa. A partnership of Messrs. Moxson, Burnett and Clarke under the name of Osh- awa Engravers preceded this move. Change of ownership in 1952 made J. F, Stewart, presi- dent and general manager. In this period the company has ex- panded to include the manufac- ture of lithographic negatives and plates. H. H. Cowley, manager of General Printers Limited, said that, since his company had be- come the largest customer, ac- quisition was a logical move. An interest in the company had been held for some years.

Quality Stressed In Production A most interesting classifica- tion talk, dealing with the his- tory and operation of Coulter Manufacturing Co., Limited, was delivered by Rotarian Ken-' neth Coulter, a company execu- tive, at the Monday meeting of the Rotary Club of Oshawa. The speaker, who was _iftro- duced by Rotarian Stanley Lo- vell, recalled his family had its origin in Scotland but later moved to Ireland, Early in the 19th century a member of the family emigrated to Canada and set up a factory of the Cabbage- town section of Toronto to man- ufacture brass and copper articles. In the early 1920's Albert E. Coulter, a son of William C. Coulter, became interested in doing business with the automo- tive industry, where he found' that certain brass parts were used in the fabrication of radi- ators for autos and trucks. ASSISTANCE GIVEN Mr. Coulter was induced to come to Oshawa and with the assistance of the late George McLaughlin, Gordon Conant, George Hart and Leslie Mc- Laughlin, a plant was built on Simcoe street south. in Cedar- dale. This plant was completely il|destroyed by fire in 1937 but the firm continued in operation in the former Williams Piano Co. building on Richmond street west. Over the years, the speaker stated; a completely mew area has"been developed in the field ef finished parts for the auto- motive industry which were for- merly made in the United States. During the Second World War, in addition to articles for the automotive industry, Coulter Manufacturing Co., Limited de- veloped housewares lines : to keep the plant in operation. Later this branch of the busi- ness was abandoned. EMPHASIS ON QUALITY Mr. Coulter emphasized that emphasis in the business is not placed on selling but rather on production, quality control, en- gineering and economy. Some 280 different parts are supplied by the firm to the auto- motive imdustry every month, These parts involve some 350 parts numbers. One hundred and twenty different types of steel are purchased by the firm. The company's basic operas tions involve stampion, die cast- ing and two kinds of electro plating. The firm produces 4,000 door locks, 1,200 mera | handles, 2,400 seat adjusters 1,200 parking brake assemblies daily.
