Applicants 'For Jobs Up Slightly The Oshawa office of the Na- tional Employment Service re- ports there was a moderate in- crease in the number of appli- cants seeking employment dur- ing January. This was caused, it is stated, by some seasonal) slackness in employment con- ditions which is normal for this time of the year ' Agricultural and construction activity slowed down, resulting in relatively few job vacancies in these fields. Municipal Win- ter Works Projects helped to provide some opportunities for the placement of applicants reg- istered for employment. Normal conditions were re- ported by the majority of the jocal manufacturing industries. There were some short time lay offs, but many firms reported steady production, with some indicating increases over the previous month, Requirements for additional help were mainly Himited to skilled personnal, which generally remained in Reminiscences were rife around this head table Fri- day night as more than 200 persons gathered to pay trib- ute to retiring Board of Works superintendent Joseph Wood.

Wren Blair, director of player personnel for the Boston Bruins, was the guest speaker at a weekly meeting of the Kiwanis Club of Westmount, Oshawa. He stated, "If you are in the cellar like the Boston Bruins are at the present time, you have to do intensive work in the field to come up with the right kind of player. Our own Bobby Orr is a great example of a good prospect for our club. If he de- velops as we anticipate, he will be a super star in the NHL. We have to find and develop play- ers for ourselves, We can't rely on picking up players from the other NHL clubs. They are not available." "The present system that Mr. Campbell employs for the NHL is for the benefit of the in- H ie iM always kept in mind they would eventually learn from us. Now they have the world's best, hence the reason they would enjoy playing an NHL club. Some day we will see a world play-off. It has to come whe- ther we like it or not.'

THEME OF SEMINAR The theme of the seminar was also remarked upon by Mr. Burt. | "We have made a great deal of progress in education since 1937 and we were proud of being able to send four of our UAW members to the university in Montreal during 1963. Two other UAW members received CLC scholarships.
