Would Control Matches For Advertising Purposes Some form of control on the use of matches for advertising purposes was recommended here Monday night by a jury looking into the death of a five-year-old boy. David Flint, 158 Celina street, died in his home April 25 be- tween 1 p.m, and 2 p.m. from inhalation of smoke from a fire caused by a match or a num- ber of matches he struck off on a book of maiches. This was the verdict the jury returned to City Coroner Dr. J. A. Pat- terson. Among the exhibits entered at the inquest was a book of matches found at the death scene, which, according to testi- mony by fire department offi- cials, set off the blaze. The book of matches was describ- ed as a book of "election matches" distributed by the Liberal Party. FAVOR CONTROL "We recommend some type of control be initiated to curb the indiscriminate. and unsafe use of matches by political parties during election time or at other time. This should include any advertising by any organization," was the jury's recommendation. Platoon Chief Mart Ostler, of the Oshawa Fire Department, said there was no evidence of a said the cause of asphyxiation. He said death cause of the fire other than the presence of the book of matches, found at the scene by Capt. Jack Crawford, fire de- partment inspector. "TI saw nothing else that could have started the fire, said Det. Sgt. J. D. Powell, of the Oshawa Police Department, who investigated. UNDER STAIRS The body of David was recov- ered by fire fighters from a space underneath the stairs in the home of Whesley Frank Flint after they had extinguish- ed a blaze discovered under the stairs by Mrs. Flint. Chief Ostler told the jury he and other men had searched the entire house but could not lo- cate the boy in any of the smoke-filled rooms. He was dis- covered later by Capt. C. Pol- lock, of the Oshawa Fire De- partment, when they looked under the stairs on the sugges- tion of Mrs. Flint. Dr. R. M. Clark, pathologist, who performed a post mortem, death was would result in a matter of min- utes under the circumstances indicated, The fire was discovered by Mrs. Flint when she went into the house from the back yard to look for David. Mrs. Flint said there had not been any matches in the house to her knowledge and none of her other four children had} matches when questioned later. "David never lit a match in) his life to my knowledge," she) told the jury. HARDLY EVER USED | She said they had placed a cabinet in front of a small door that gave access to the space underneath the stairs to prevent the children from get- ting in. She suspected David might have got in before by pushing the cabinet away. She said the space was hardly ever used. "The boy went into the space, lit a match,. started the fire and died as the result," said W. Bruce Affleck, crown attor- ney, who conducted the ques- tioning, summed up the evi- dence, He suggested the jury make a recommendation regarding the distribution of matches by a policital party. The jury also recommended that the fire department should pay particular attention on their inspections to these small enclosed areas to which a child could easily gain access without) being noticed by an adult for a period of time. See No Increase In Coffee "Hey buddy can you spare a dime for a cuppa," will cease to be the panhandler's cry in Toronto, However, in Oshawa the price of a cup of coffee will probably remajn the same if a survey of 15 downtown restaurants is any} indication, | All are waiting to see what} the general trend will be.

He claimed it) costs more than 10 cents to! make up a cup of coffee. | Several Toronto restaurants have already raised the price of coffee to 15 cents and many others say they will follow suit.

He urged members to con- tinue taking their first aid courses and work their way to- ward becoming instructors. "The more you put into it, the more you get out of it," said the speaker. 'First aid and safety go together." Mr. Hammond mentioned an industrial firm in Sudbury which has reduced its accident rate by 20 per cent through a knowledge of first aid.

Ebbs ad- mitted he was baffled when told in Oshawa Magistrate's Court Monday about a transfer of articles and a passenger be- tween two cars driving side by side at nearly 40 miles per hour. Appearing before the magis- trate were the drivers of the cars, Wayne G. Henderson, 19, of 581 Veterans avenue and Gor- don Dennis Meek, 19, of 493 Farewell avenue, who pleaded not guilty to charges of care- less driving. Police Constable R. H. Cramp told the court Henderson and Meek had been the drivers of two southbound cars he ob- served ahead of him on Simcoe street north, driving side- by-side, while the occupants seemed to pass something back and forth. The constable said he was just going to warn them when to his surprise a man crawled from the window of one of the cars and into the window of the other. He said the vehicles were travelling 38 miles per hour, 24 to three feet apart. Both Henderson and Meek said they had not been aware of the transfer of the passenger from Meek's to Henderson's z, : "T did not know he was com- ing into my car until he hit me GM Duplicate Bridge Club Scores Following are the winners and high scores in the games played last week by the mem- bers of the General Motors Du- plicate Bridge Club: North-South Mrs. S.

(North- Court Baffled Article Transfer over the head," said Henderson. A passenger in Henderson's car, Dan Constate, 204 Divi- sion street, said he had seen David Moore crawl into the win- dow and had shouted to both drivers, "hold it steady". He admitted passing a pack of cig- arets to the other car and re- ceiving it back again. Both drivers had originally been charged with dangerous driving, but that charge was dismissed on the request of Crown Attorney .W_ Bruce Affleck. Defence Counsel Terence V. Kelly argued the drivers had been wise to heed the warning, hold it steady, and had not been driving carelessly. He pointed out the road has two southbound lanes and cars can travel side- by-side. Crown Attorney Affleck said the drivers must have been pre- occupied while the transfer took place. "T still can't believe it," said Magistrate Ebbs, and reserved judgment to May 27. School Plans Explained Gaston Beaulieu, inspector of Separate Schools for Ontario, was the speaker at the Sunday meeting of the French - Cana- dian Club of Oshawa.
