"Tommy Thomas and, his wife, former Mayor- "Christine Thomas, will sail from Montreal November 20 for "South Africa to visit relatives of Mrs. Thomas in Johannes- burg and Durbin. * They expect to be absent from Oshawa for at least four * months -- the boat trips alone wil] take 21 days each way. . They have planned such a trip for several years but always postponed it because of pressure from their other time-con- suming jobs, municipal and Provincial. Mrs. Thomas said today that she was feeling "well and rested" for the trip ahead. Mr. Thomas retired from GM, "where he was a Tool and Die maker, one year ago. 'OSHAWA MAN HEADS REFRIGERATION ENGINEERS . A 45-year-old Oshawa refrigeration service engineer .. brought high honor to this City last Saturday down Miami, «Florida, way. te He is' Michael Rudka, new president of the 17,000-mem- ber Refrigeration Service Engineers Society Interna- tional, which has branches in the U-S., Canada, Eng- land and Japan. Mr. Rudka's association with the RSESI dates back to 1942 -- it was incorporated as a non-profit educational society in 1933 in Illinois to further the education of members in the art and sci- ence of refrigeration § engi- neering. In 1936 the first Ca- nadian chapter was organized in Toronto. It is now the second largest unit in 'he International with 350 mem- bers. One of the society's projects: has been its cam- paign to abolish so-called "death traps" in the form of abandoned refrigerators, : which have been fatal for many children -- Mr. Rudka has been active locally in this work, voluntarily removing with- out charge the doors. Mr. Rudka is married to the former Maureen: Kennedy " of Belfast, Ireland. They have four children. He is a mem- » ber of the Oshawa Rotary Club.. He was elected first *vice- { president in Houston, Texas, last year. He was also named " membership chairman and reported an increase of 870 this year. pet MICHAEL RUDKA « LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Did you know that the recent frost killed all of those lovely flowers at City Hall, that they will have to be replaced Oshawa's Don Jackson, former Figure Skating champion of the world, is currently playing in Chi- cago with the Shipstads and Johnson 1963-64 edition of the Ice Follies. . . .

This will be one of the most ambitious pro- ductions undertaken by the OLT since its memborable 'Mur- * der in the Cathedral', with Dr. Claude Vipond, among others, 4 xin 1961. BUS DEFICIT FOR LAST AUGUST $10,490 Don't rule out the possibility that the 1963 deficit of the bus operation of the PUC may hit the $50,000 mark. . The PUC points out that this deficit only jumped from $27,000 to $35,000 the last three months of 1962, traditionally the best revenue-producing months because snow, etc. prompts many to Jeave cars at home. They hope the same trend will follow this year. They also admit "anything can happen deficit-wise". The question cropped up last Friday with publication of a news story which said that the PUC bus operation deficit was $41,547 at the end | of September last. This was of interest be- * cause a news story of Octo- ber 4, 1963, stated that the bus department had incurred a net loss of $35,223 for the } eight months ending August 31 last. : Did $6,324 not seem like an abnormally high monthly deficit for the PUC's bus op- eration. A PUC spokesman did not deny this, but he also pointed out these salient factors: The deficit for last August was $10,490 in the bus depart- t. eeethe jJast three months of the year are always the most lucrative financially, barring. unforeseen occurrences.

Coun¢# will have the final decision on this one, because it is the aldermen's duty to raise money for such de- ficits. This year's deficit, incidentially, will be the biggest since the PUC took over the operation in January, 1960, unless some tind of miracle happens. .iers as having hired gunmen to UAW Settles .

Renda has no police record and sued, claiming "malicious prosecution" by the union. A $400,000 judgment won in a long 1957 trial was reverted by .the Michigan Supreme Court. lt found trial errors and said no proof had been presented to show the union had given prose- cutors false information. - i Reuther's right arm was} maimed by a_ shotgun blast fired through a window of his) =~ home by an unseen gunman con-| ~ cealed in darkness outside. 4.

If enough is accomplished, the' government may decide to end the session then and start a new one early in the new year.
