He said he had been only slightly dizzy. He had a record of 30 years' smoking. From a number of others per- haps it took more heroism, but a show of hands incidated Tues- day well over 70 per cent had not smoked during the previous 24 hours. At least a dozen said their craving for tobacco was less Tuesday and only three re- ported the day as "'awful".

"Phe children got on my nerves,"" said one housewife, *:I even started to say aloud, 'I choose not to smoke'."

The key to maximum success in the convention business lies in the participation of every person in the community in the promotion of Oshawa, he stated. Members of local groups and organizations should boost Osh- |awa as a convention city when \they hear of conventions and| jinvitations should be sent to |groups planning conventions. Mr. Moore warned that "overselling" a community is dangerous, 'You, may attract a convention, but they'll never come again and information like that spreads rapidly," he said. "You have excellent hotel facilities in Oshawa, and I sug- gest you develop this conven- choice May 14, 15, 16 and 17. For the position of president, there are two candidates seek- ing the post.

Today is supposed to be the critical day. A day full of dragons, according to Mr. Dun- can, The four dragons to be watched are: overeating, lack of sleep, overwork and alcohol.

General-manager and coach of the recently organized Osh- |awa Junior 'Green Gaels" La- lerosse Club, the speaker was introduced to the members by fellow Kiwanian "Dick" Donald, a member of the new club's executive.
