THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tussdey, July 28, 1968 GOOD EVENING [ - baaue - Dusk Falls On Winnie's MORE NOTES ON CANADA'S CENTENNIAL YEAR A survey by The Canadian Press shows that "with Canada's Centennial 2% years away, there are plenty of plans for marking it, but'few final decisions on what will, 'im fact, be done. . ' Ottawa is showing some concern because it feels that too many local projects suggested are too utilitarian and lacking 'in festive imagination for a birthday party. - Here are some of the projects being planned at the local -community level across Canada: -- * fhe Yarmouth (N.S.)

Winnipeg plans an $11,000,000 arts centre to be built across Main street from a new $7,000,000 City Hall -- it will house an auditorium, art gallery and museum, Regina probably will get a new auditorium, though fina: decision has been delayed by the recent change of govern- ment. The former CCF government wanted auditoriums in Regina and Saskatchewan and a 200 at Moose Jaw, but the idea of splitting the grants among three communities was nct welcomed by Ottawa, Edmonton plans the first wing of a new provincial ar- chives and museum, Victoria also wants a provincial museum and archives building, thus completing a cross country chain of centenary memorial projects dedicated to arts and letters. "REV, LARKE RESUMES HIS DUTIES _ Rev, A. E. Larke, minister of Albert Street United Church, has resumed his duties after an absence of six months, He suffered a Coronary attack while teaching a Sunday class. Mr, Larke was former ly president of the Bay of Quinte Conference of the United Church of Canada. He took over at Albert Street Church in July, 1061, from Rev. §, C. Atkinson, who is now minister at Grace Unit- ed Church, Toronto, Mr, Larke was Protestant chap- lain with the Calgary Tanks associated with the same bri- gade as the Ontario Regi- ment) in the Second World War overseas. Albert Street United Church, incidentially, REV, A. E, LARKE was founded in 1012 --- the present building was con- structed in 1920, and the Christian Education annex in 1960. THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF SHOW BUSINESS In case you are wondering how some of Oshawa's big . names in show business are doing professionally -- Singer Shirley Harmer is appearing at the Braemor Hotel, Colorado Springs, this week on a bill headed by Liberace. She ig scheduled for a spot on the Johnny Carson television show next week (Channel 2 is the outlet), Singer Douglas Crossley -- the son of Mr. and Mrs. Lioyd : Crossley of 702 Grierson street -- has received a big break, one he has been pray- ing for these many months, He will appear on the Bell Telephone Hour tonight at 10 PM (via color on Chan- nel 2, Buffalo) This will mark the first U.S. network appearance for the former GM Oshawa employee. He will also appear August 19 on the "Om Broadway Tonight Show" (also at 10 p.m.), but on Channel 4, Buffalo). The other big news about Crossley concerns his plans to move to the United States eventually -- he has taken out his U.8. visa; but for the present he is living in Tor- onto, where he makes 7 V 'DOUGLAS CROSSLEY 'commercials regularly. He is under contract te the William Morris Agency in New York City, one of the best in the busi- *, MOBS, ' Crossley's move to take out a U.S, visa is understand- * able --he is a remarkably fine young singer, but he never ~ did get the recognition in Canada he so richly deserved, de- spite periodic success (such as in Winnipeg, where his 1ame was a household word before he decided to pull stakes and head for Toronto, where TV opsortunities are much greater). Crossley is young, personable and talented -~fine requisites for a singer on the threshold of TV fame -- but he must get a break, more exposure time on the beg networks, if he is to attain stardom. THE SHAPE OF SCHOOLS TO COME j Did you notice in a news release last Friday that the Ontario Department of Education will give closer scrutiny to the shape of schools to come in future? Minister of Education William C. Davis has established a new unit to be known as the Division of School Planning and Building Research. The new division will: Investigate the facilities necessary to house new teaching techniques and technical teaching aids. Study quality control of school buildings with specific ref- erence to materials and methods of construction as related to costs. : Seek to avoid early obsolence of school plant, See if greater use can be made of school buildings for} community facilities. Services of the division would be made available to a individuals, groups and official bodies involved in education. Said the Minister: "With the changing needs in curriculum and the ne teaching techniques . . . it is imperative that both the edp- cator and the taxpayer, as well as the student, have the m¢st efficient and, it goes without saying, the most economic form of plant to carry out the education process... . 'There is also the relationship of the school building to the community surrounding it. Should school facilities be made an even more integral part of community life, with certain facilities available to both pupil and non-pupil at dif- ferent times of the day and of the year? There are many questions to be examined and answers found .. . "Matters of design and materials, of the relationship of original cost to maintenance, also were part of the new di- vision's terme of reference'.

Only now, approaching 90, has he finally yielded to the pleas of his wife, doctors, family and friends and surrendered to time.'

(CP) -- A 4,000 - square - mile patch of Northern Ontario is undergoing the most intensive prospecting ever seen in this vast, mineral- rich area. Touched off by the $1,000,000,- 000 find of silver, copper and zinc made near here by Texas Gulf Sulphur Co,, it has re- sulted in hundreds of compe- nies sending squads of pros- pectors into the bush to try their luck. In a miles-wide belt from west of Timmins through 100 miles of wilderness to the Que- bee border, from Kirkland Lake and Larder Lake north 40 miles to Lake Abitibi, every inch of ground is being re-examined for mineral content, Much of it had been pros- pected before, during the 1920s and "30s, but only for gold.

Whenever he arrives, mem- bers hurriedly make room for him while refraining from giv- ing actual support -- assistance he resents and usually shakes off angrily. Although he is an old man ob- viously fading, hounded by poor hearing and the innumerable in- firmities of old age, there has been no pressure outside his cir- cle of family and friends for him to quit.

S, Thorve'?«on (PC--Manitoba). "T believe this bill is so bad, so irresponsible, so simply a vote-catching gimmick that it does not even deserve to go to a committee of the Senate," The senator said the bill was a bad thing for Canadian unity, in that it exaggerated th e"opt- ing out" -formula for provinces, and a bad thing for the young people of the country. The bill, which got second reading at a later sitting of the Senate, provides that Ottawa will pay interest on the loans while a student is at university and for six months later, The 'Gimmick' Lashed By PC Senator the loan off in between five and 10 years It does not identify a "needy" student, leaving that up to pro- vincial authorities who will cer: tify students for loans, Senator Thorvaldson said he was 'completely and utterly" against the bill.
