The Jetstar 88 utilizes full-size Oldsmobile body on special 123-inch wheelbase chas- Sis. Its weight is reduced, its Styling is trim, and it utilzes the new light-weight cast-iron Jetfire Rocket V-8 engine. the The Jetfire Rocket is a com- pletely new engine embodying an inverted 'A' cylinder block construction and _ integrated a new standard of quietness of operation: It is outstandingly smooth, due to the rigidity of the crank- case and crankshaft. A new combustion chamber promotes} instantaneous ignition. | The cylinder block casting is) manufactured by a foundry pro- cess called 'thot-box coring," the first time Oldsmobile's adoption of this process has been applied to a production automotive en- gine. The new engine develops 225 horsepower with a 10.25 to 1 compression ratio. The engine is "teamed" with an entirely new automatic trans- mission, the Jetaway consisting of an automatic gearshift and a torque amplifying feature which permits extra performance with- out downshifting. The Jetaway automatic and the 4-speed transmission with floor control are available as extra-cost options. A 3-speed column - shift transmission is standard on all Jetstar 88's. BRILLIANT STYLING There are many other new and wonderful things about the 1964 Oldsmobile. Styling is bril- liant, fresh and new, with the accent on youthful appearance.

The Celebrity sedan, s>own above, is one of four models in this new Oldsmobile series, including newly. designed rock panel moldings. | The new Jetstar I is. equip- ped with bucket seats and con- sole, and roof styling similar to| \the Starfire coupe. The Starfire has been. drama-| itically changed. The' rear roof supporting structure is design- ed to further stress. the sharp, crisp lines of the concave rear window, In the lower body a functional engine compartment jair outlet is placed directly be- hind the front wheel opening. \Inboard driving lamps are! |sports-car styled. In the 98 for 1954, a new rear quarter profile further empha- sizes the long, sleek look of this most. luxurious Oldsmobile series, tp 'Lower Priced Olds Announced Tailored specifically for each series, interior trims range from the smartly fashioned fab- rics and vinyls of the 88's to the rich looking satin-weave nylon in the elegant 98's.

Even greater performance in Dynamic and Super -88's is gained through the use of a new rear axle ratio, 3.08 to 1. Chassis improvements in all 64 Oldsmobiles contribute to an éven smoother and more com- fortable ride. NEW FRONT END Front suspensions contain new pivot bushings on upper control arms for longer life and improved ride characteristics, Single piece construction of rear suspension lower control arm permits better alignment of differential for Quieter oper- ation under all load conditions. Improved needle bearings and seals in universal joints in- crease durability and reduce maintenance costs, New brake linings of an im- proved composition provide more effective braking and in- creased wear qualities. In addi- tion, front brake drums are of heavier construction for better cooling. A new heater, standard equip- ment on all 1964 Oldsmobiles, utilizes an air-mix principle by which inside temperature is more quickly regulated dnd more uniformly maintained, On bucket seat models, even dis- tribution of air throughout the car's interior is assured through special new air baffles.

Midway Big Fair Attraction | Autumn, the season for fairs, is here again and the Oshawa Fair is now in full swing. Farmers from the Oshawa district have. gathered at Alex- andra Park to show their prod- uce and livestock. Exhibitors of handicrafts and commercial products have also set up stands in the park, One of the main buildings has booths showing western- Style clothing, water-softeners, quilts, tablecloths and aprons made by the Lakeview Hand- craft Guild. One booth which attracts many visitors shows jewelery making with copper and ena- mel. Prominently displayed are garden layouts by local land- scaping firms. HORSE THEME Throughout the day judging of livestock continued with light) and draught horses, cattle and sheep coming under the scrutiny of the judges.' Horses of another kind were also close- ly watched Tuesday when trot- ting races were held during the afternoon. The horse theme was con- tinued when a rodeo was held during the 'evening. Another highlight of the evening was a greasy pig contest when local youths struggled to hold and claim the squealing animal. Youngsters who were taken to the fair were delighted with the bright lights and music of the many shows.

Swings, roundabouts, the ferris wheel and many other rides and shows are there to beguile the fair visitor.

Last year the fair was held in August, during the holiday sea- son, Chevy Ils and Chevrolets will not be increased over the price of comparably equipped 1963 models, E, H.

The Minneapolis Bruins of the fledgling Central Professional Hockey League opened their tryout and training camp, un- der the direction of General Manager Wren Blair and player- coach, Harry Sinden. Of the 35 hopefuls- in the camp, local fans will be most interested in Brenton Hughes of Bowmanville, who has just com- pleted three Junior "A" seasons with the St. Catharines Tepees, and in Terry Vail, the leading scorer on last year's Oshawa Generals. The bulk of the team is com- posed of 10 veterans of the King- ston Professional Hockey league last season. In addition there will be eight CHURCH AND SCHOOL By RA. A. WATSON Vice-chairman, Christian Business Men's Com. Probably at no time in his- tory has there been an era with emphasis upon preparing chil- dren or youth for the future than at the present moment. "No sacrifice, whether it be material or energy wise, can be too great to make for our chil- dren" seems to be the cry of the day. New teaching methods, new techniques and new systems are the themes of our educators, as they view the demands of the present and future genera- tions of our youth. This, natur- ally, has been foliowed by a demand for new teaching facili- ties and structures -- the cost of which has risen to astronom- ical figures in our present day economy -- to the effect that we can rightly conclude that no true value can be ascertained upon "teaching the child'. In the light of the tremendous emphasis upon secular educa- tion, it might be assumed by many that this should provde all that is required by our youth in preparing them for their place in society. Ironically this is not true, for with the great move forward in the educational field, there has also become apparent in our land a breakdown of moral eth- ics and an increase in criminal tendencies that our reform in- stitutes declare never existed before. Statistics show us that the rate of crime increase far sur- passes the population increase and has*done so for a number * \of years. This would indicate that there is a need in the hearts of our youth that cannot / |be met via textbooks and theor- stale ie Mies A new lightweight, cast-iron Jetfire Rocket V-8 engine, de- livering 225 h.p. and an optional 260 h.p. version, are teamed with an ent'rely 1ew transmission, Jétaway, avail- able at extra cost. This new transmission combines the performante of gears and the smoothness of a torque con- verter with a torque amplify- ing feature which permits downshifting. ies but can be met only through + ja proper relationship with God whereby the moral truths de- manded by Him become the mo- i power of each individ- ual.

Teaching Child Important Today Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, is a life that is not prepared for the demands of time and eternity upon it. "Except a man be born again, he cannot see God," John 3:3. Someonce once said, "An edu- cation is what is left after you have forgotten all you have learned,"' but Solomon, in the Book of Proverbs states, "Train up a child in the way he should players from the Niagara Falls Flyers who are now too old for Junior A hockey and have been sent up to the professional .ry- outs by the parent Boston Bruins.

The purpose of the meetin was to discuss a motion sign by Trustees Mrs, W. Clarke, W. O'Neill and J. J. Kelly, "to er, Class at Corpus Christi School." Chairman Michael Rudka opened the meeting by calling on the signers of the motion to give their comments. Clarke asked "why did you cancel the kinder- garten?" "I didn't," replied the chairman. "Have the classes been dis- continued?" asked Trustee O'Neill. "No," replied the chair, Trustee Kelly stated that "the board should have been con- sulted on plans for a bilingual kindergarten." Following a heated discussion on the wording of the motion, Chairman Rudka said "'it is my opinion that when we pass a motion it is binding until we change it, I will enforce exist- ing motions." Chairman Rudka also 'stated that "if you think I'm not doing my job, now is the time to do something. I don't care for this internal pressure." In the discussion that follow- ed, various members of the board expressed confidence that 4 chairman was doing "a good job." : Mr. Rudka refused to be moved from the position that the only subject for discussion was the original motion on the purpose of calling the special meeting. ie" At approximately 8.15 p.m., Trustee E. Marks moved that the meeting be adjourned, sec. onded by Trustee W. O'Neill. Steel Union Contract Sought A last-minute effort to settle a contract between an Oshawa industry and its 300 employees was made Tuesday. More than 250 employees of Ontario Malleable Iron Com- pany Ltd., members of Local 1500, United Steelworkers of America, attended a_ special meeting at the Albert street Steelworkers' Hall and approv- ed a recommendation that con- tract negotiations between the company and the local be turn- ed over to UAWA District Dir- ector Larry Sefton of Toronto Keith Ross, international rep- improving, your. knowledge of the French language. To encourage biculturalism in Canada, The Oshawa Times will start publication of a daily French language story strip de- signed to help English-speaking Canadians increase their French vocabulary. The feature, called Les Cana- diens (The Canadians), will ap- pear as a comic strip, and will portray dramatic episodes from Canada's history. The text inside the comic panels will be entirely in French. But if a word stumps you, you merely turn the comic upside down and read the En- glish tnanslation. In addition, there will be a weekly vocabulary guide of key words. Les Canadiens has been hailed by leading Canadian education authorities as an outstanding project which will provide assis- tance to high school students studying French, adults attend- ing French night classes, and others who recall their French lessons from high school. Readers who follow Les Cana- diens will find their French vocabulary widely extended. And the feature offers a re- fresher course in Canadian his- tory, too! Watch for further details to be announced soon. ive. of the UAWA, said today that the minority. of the workers attending the meeting wanted a strike vote to be taken, He pointed out that the em- ployees could strike at any time and that the situation depended upon action taken by Mr. Sef- ton, Mr. Ross said that negotia- tions have been conducted since March 1 this year and that the expiry date of the ald contract was May 1. "Discontentment among the workers is strong," ihe said, "because the com- pany has failed to make ag offer. during six months of negotiations." x He indicated that three meet- ings were held with a concilia- tion officer and no proposals were put forward by the com- pany at the meetings. - At a- previous meeting, Mr. Ross explained, both agreed that a recommendation be made to the Minister af Labor that no conciliation board be appointed. This recommend- ation was agreed to by the min- ister and a 'no board' report was issued September 18. In effect this means," Mr. Ross said, "that the local is legally entitled to strike from today. The local has decided to postpone strike action in a last ditch effort to reach a settle- not depart from it." This is not a reference to secular education, but to true Christianity which is the basis of all learning and is to be found in the Bible. It can be re- ceived only through the med- ium of faith, as that faith is centred in the Son of God, the only interceder between God and man, Time is fleeting, customs are changing and true values are in confusion to the point where one could rightly ask, "What is' the purpose of man". The problems of the present day world, that face not only ourselves, but our youth, are unsurmountable until we turn our attention to God's Holy Word and allow ourselves to be infliuenced and directed by His will in relationship to Himself, our fellow man and the world at large. God has a pur- pose for every individual heart and soul that can only be made known as we wait upon Him. A good education, though it be a thing much desired for, cannot in itself bring peace of mind and happiness, but, cou- pled with a 'proper relationship to God through faith in "His Son, the enlightened mind as it is directed by the Spirit of God, can be a force and an influence second: only to that of Jesus Christ as He walked athbngst men. rf. The school dd Me unady School are a duet that can pro- duce harmony and usefulness, but separated, can only produce discord and uselessness. When God is placed first and fore- most, all other things fall into their proper place and we have presented before us a life of Citizens visiting the down- town King street area 'hese days can hardly believe their eyes, the picture has changed so drastically. The ea st strip of the new road has been completed and was used Mon- day night by some of the guest-cars at the dinner for the opening of the Canadian Automotive Museum in the Hotel Genosha. Three of the King street bloeks will be opened to the public . next week. The Wild-west appear- ny EET ance of this main thorough- fare will soon disappear -- a beautiful boulevard will re- sult, one that should stimu late business no end. emacs -atny ne i
