"WHITBY And DISTRICT 'JURY DELIBERATES 3 HOURS Convicts Oshawa Trio On Bookmaking Rap A two-day trial ended in On- tario County Court, Wednesday, with three Oshawa men being convicted on conspiring to en- gage in bookmaking and record- ing and registering bets. "The petit jury of 11 men and one woman, deliberated for three hours before the guilty verdict was brought in. John Raymond Keys, 48, of the Queen's Hotel, Oshawa, James Mcliroy, 72, of 1344 King street west and Edward Harry Williams, 77 Gibbons street, Oshawa, were remanded until Monday morning for sentence. In his summation to the jury, Crown Attorney, W. Bruce Affleck said, "why is bookmak. ing an offence?" "Gambling like alcohol is un. controllabe in some men and a man usually ruins himself because of the availability of these. "They carry on a tax-free operation and in one day the three accused made $114.65 profit, tax-free. "With bookmaking they bring in the other crimes: narcotics, prostitution and assault to make those who owe money pay-off -- and then the corruption," he said. Defence Counsel, R. D. Hum- phreys, QC, told the court there wasn't enough evidence to con- vict them. "There is no evidence they sat down and made an agreement," Wouldn't Change Plea Driver Goes To Jail \ William Ernest Kitchener, 51, of 59 Eighth avenue in Wood- bridge, pleaded guilty to drunk driving in Whitby Magistrate's Court, Tuesday. : Constable Ernest Collinson of the OPP testified he was pro- ceeding along Highway 7 when he spotted a parked vehicle on the side of the road. He told the court the vehicle's lights were on and the motor Lions Plan Wash-0-Rama Saturday Members of the Whitby Lions club met, Tuesday night, for the first time since their an- nual convention at Cornwall last week. Several tales of exploits by members were passed around the dinner table and the group discussed plans for next year's convention. Special mention was made at the meeting of the tribute the Whitby Lions received from other clubs, especially for the antique display of furniture by Bill Jermyn, blind furniture A float carrying several of 'Bill's hand-made pieces of an- tique furniture was an added attraction in the Cornwall parade. Comments about the sale of tickets for the Lions "Wash-0. Rama" were made and the club anticipates a large num- ber of dirty cars at the car wash next Saturday morning, June 8, starting at 7.00 a.m. The Wash-O-Rama will be held at the north Brock Texaco service station with the price of the car wash set at $1.50 per car.

Kitchener told Magistrate Harry W. Jermyn he had five or six bottles of beer and had stopped the car because he was tired. His Worship told the accused he had pleaded guilty to the charge and asked him if he wanted to change his plea. The accused said he didn't. When Magistrate Jermyn sen- enced the man to seven days, the accused asked him if he could change the sentence for him since he didn't want to lose his job. His Worship replied he was unable since this was the mini- mum sentence as prescribed by law. ' WHITBY he said. "'The Crown's evidence is purely circumstantial." Addressing the Jury he said, "the Crown must establish guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. It doesn't matter how suspicious anyone is. "We don't convict people in a British court on suspicion, only evidence," said Mr. Humphreys. He summed up his defence stating the accumulated evi- dence amounts to nothing more than suspicion, There was no conspiracy proven, Nothing was proven, Mr. Humphreys said. Violated Probation Gets 3 Months David L. Maunders was sen- tenced to three months in jail, Tuesday, when the youth plead- ed guilty in Whitby Magis. trate's Court to violation of his probation. He had originally been placed on a one-year suspended sentence and granted proba- tion for theft of over $50. In sentencing the youth, Mag- istrate Crawford W. Guest, said, "You've no one to thank in this situation but yourself." AT ROTARY EXPENSE A shy 18-year-old Henry High School student, Charles Herder, told the members of the Whitoy Rotary Club Tuesday of his ex- periences on a four-day Rotary sponsored trip to Ottawa. He was a member of a group of students from all parts of Canada who enjoyed the 13th annual "Adventure in Citizen ship". The young student was chosen to represent Whitby by the prin- cipal and teachers of his school because he had displayed all round good character and schol- astic ability. Included among the many ac- tivities he told the Rotary mem- of the opposition John Diefen- baker, a meeting with the wife of the Governor - General, Madame Vanier, a visit to the office of Mayor Charlotte Whit- ton, a tour of the RCMP detach- ment at Rockcliffe Park, discus- sion groups and a bus trip to Hull, Quebec.

Lloyd Gibson, Rotarian, ex- pressed the Club's gratitude for with a gift on behalf of the members. Mr. Gibson jokingly noted that from the detailed extent of the young man's report he didn't seem to have had any fun. He then proceeded to suggest that Club President Charles Rycroft send the student back at, the president's expense and this time let him have some fun. Next year a top student from Anderson Street School will make the trip from Whitby.
