TWO CUSTOMERS A DAY Another businessman, jill Dragomotz, who runs an auto market, said he was getting an average of two customers a day, and has sold only one car this month as compared to 10 during the same period in August, "In August I had two sales- men working for me .. . now I'm alone. I just wasn't making enough to pay them." He also complained about the mess at the construction site. "I have to wash 30 cars a day, and within an hour they're filthy with dust flying around.

PLAN TAX APPEALS Faced with prospects of bank- ruptcy, several of the business- men are planning to band to- gether to ask for tax relief from city hall, Other than that, they say, there is nothing they can do but sit in empty stores and watch the construction. City Engineer Fred E. Crome said the road would be com- pleted in three weeks and that as much provision had been made for access to the stores as possible. He also denied that there was a lack of co-operation ,. between the construction firms working there.

Mr. Vanderstoop said the parking lot at the plaza is frequently used as a race track. claimed the lights are on "to the early morning hours," and complained of the mess left be- hind by students and night- time habitues of the plaza. He said increased traffic is even now making it difficult to get out of driveways of Rossland road homes. Sol Hyman described the plan as. "confiscation of human rights." He said there is little compatibility in a ~- masonary wall, 400 more cars and a high density dwelling. The masonary wa!!, plus land- scaping, Fernhill boulevard ex- tended and a planned Yow of houses on its east side were all described by project architect Bruce Murray as a buffer on the east side of the project.

Approval of certain conditions involving the improvement of Trick and Adeline avenues, at/| the owner's expense, will be recommended to council along with rezoning.

Ald. John Dyer said it is not reasonable to extend the coms mercial area and suggested re- zoning only in the applied-for area. For pretty, curly-haired five- year-olds, the world is full 2f fun and laughter. But for little Danelle Duffy, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, William P. Duffy, of 5335 Cox avenue, Lincoln Piace, Pennsylvania, a smile some times isn't so easy to summon up. ' Danelle is a patient at Chil- dren's Hospital, Fifth and De- sota street, Pittsburgh. She is nearly blind. She can't talk and her arms and legs, encased in casts to prevent spasms, are held almost motionless by para- lysis. Her condition is the result of complications following routine surgery for the' removal of her tonsils and adenoids last June. Her parents have been told by hospital therapists that their daughter may walk again in 10 years' time. NATIVE OF OSHAWA Her mother is the former Agnes Brick of Oshawa. An uncle, Charles Brick, lives on Lansdowne street, Oshawa. A psychologist has warned that the youngster shows cer- tain signs that she is suffering from severe mental damage that she may never completely overcome. Danelle attended the Mifflin kindergarten last year and was to have been a first-grader at St, Mary's School next week. Instead, her world is one of hospital routine, peopled by doc- tors and nurses she cannot.sce. Therapy is the key to the Duffys' hope that their daughter will again hood, know normal child. ee Its magic has already helped loosen Danelle's paralysis and she can now move her limbs a little. Time has given back a little of her sight, She knows when a light is fileked off. Doctors at the Home for Crip. pled Children in Squirrel Hill are interested in her case and if therapy keeps its. magic for her, she may be transferred there for accelerated therapy. In the meantime, visiting 'hours at Children's Hospital be- gin at 10 a.m. and Danelle's parents are at her beside until they end at 9 p.m. Their oldest daughter, 16-year. old Robin, is in charge at home with the rest of the family -- four youngsters including eight- month-old Paul, KNOWS VOICES "Danelle knows the sound of our voices and she gives us a wide grin," Mrs. Duffy says. Her greatest fun is listening to her parents read verses from get-well cards. But she's only received 12 cards all summer long. Mrs, Duffy this week asked Steel Valley residents to send cards and letters to her daugh- ter, Toys, she says, are use- less since Danelle can neither Bookies Found At Race Meet | TORONTO (CP) -- Somebody was making a little book when an exclusive Toronto riding club held a horse racing meet recently, a provincial police of- ficial said Wednesday. Inspector Jack Hatch of the anti-gambling squad said com- plaints of bookmaking at nearby Aurora during a Sunday meet of the Toronto and North York Hunt Club have been found to be accurate. "We have carried out an in- vestigation and there is no doubt that there were infrac- tions of the law," Insp. Hatch said. "'We were unable to un- cover evidence that might lead us to the guilty parties, and the individual who made the com- plaint to a newspaper in the first instance doesn't want his name revealed." The club meet was heldAug. 30 with five flat horse races and a steeplechase. There was an estimated crowd of 1,000 at- tending. i 420 Wing Plans Dinner The members of the 420 Wing of the Royal Canadian Air Force Association are planning their first gathering of the fail season.

Fair Board Is Pleased With Result Officials of the Oshawa Fair are pleased with the results of this year's fair despite rain beg cut attendance by 60 per. cent. At a meeting of the Oshawa Fair Board at the Ideal Dairy plant Thursday evening, mem- bers said that while it was une likely it had made money, they felt it had not lost any either. They estimated the fair, held on Aug. 19. 20 and 21, would have drawn 20,000 people if it had not rained for two of the three days, SEEK CHANGED IMAGE Jack Mann of the Chamber of Commerce, said "one of our main aims was to change the image of the fair. to make it more up to date and to give it a wider appeal to the people of Oshawa, and we feel this has been accomplished." The board decided it would at-~ tempt more improvements alon this line when the fair was h next year. A bigger midway and a new building to house exhibits will be proposed. They have als ord decided to broaden out e and domestic science exhibits. horticultural, needlecraft The members: felt the most improvements _ this Mr, Mann said that the board would start planning next year's fair earlier this year. The fair will be held at the same time, and in the same place, at Alexs andra Park. The board was unable to make a definite statement of its finan. cial situation following the fair because all the bills had not been received.
