The annual fate of the "best read". book is predict- able, since its successor the 1964 telephone directory is now According to J. W. Lowry, Bell Telephone manager here, 64,943 copies of the Oshawa- Bowmanville - Cobourg - Port Hope - Whitby and surrounding territory directory will be dis- tributed this year. This is an increase of 8,465 copies over the previous year. A total of 33,656 will be sent to custom- ers in Oshawa, an increase of 4,687 over last year. Every year Bell employees spend hundreds of hours list- ing telephone. subscribers' mames and numbers and up- dating one of the world's best read reference books. Mr. Lowry cautioned custom- ers to check the numbers in the new directory and where nec- essary make changes to their Blue Book of telephone num- bers. "Anyone needing a new Blue Book for frequently call- ed numbers .cari obtain one by calling the Telephone Office," he said. The manager pointed out that the introductory pages were a wealth of imformation and should be checked to see if any different procedures were outlined for making calls. "Emergency numbers should be recorded in the blank space," he said.

Are Needed Since the Red Cross Society accepted the responsibility of collecting blood for the Oshawa General Hospital, approximately 25,000 bottles of blood have been donated, This has taken place in a period of about five and a half years. The number of people who have participated in this pro- gram to provide such a huge quantity of whole blood is ap- proximately 5,000. This means that about one out of 12 or 13 people in Oshawa is a blood donor. What is needed most of all at the present time is for about 100 mew donors to come forward every month to donate. The sup- ply of blood in the bank must be continually increased. This can only be done through the generosity of regular donors along with the help of new ones. The Ontario Red Cross Society has decided that the Oshawa Blood Clinics, from now on, will have additional staff so that there will be mo waiting or at least less waiting time than there has been in the past. The number of beds and the number of nurses and nurses' aides should make it possible for 90 to 100 people to-go through the clinic each hour come'to the clinics have ap- pointments, it will not be neces- sary to have one. Those without appointments will be accepted and should have no trouble get- ting through in about 20 min- utes ee Anyone in average good health lbetween the ages of 18 and 65 can donate. Precautions are taken by the medical staff to see that no one donates who can- not afford to give blood. A Haemo test is taken in a few seconds and the technician knows whether your blood count is high enough or not. 'The next clinic will be held Plan Show At Somerset Pool The Synchronized' Swim Club is holding its annual water show "Snow White', It will be pre- sented at Somerset Swimming Pool Thursday, Sept. 3, at 7:30 p.m Approximately 40 girls have been practising this past. sum- mer in order to present this production.

Various formations and costumes have been used to add originality to this well-known children's fairy tale. The Princess, Andrea - Con- way, and her Prince are sup- ported by a cast consisting of Queen, Huntsman, flowers, Birds, Rabbits, and of course, the Seven Dwarfs.
