@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, October 2, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACKGEARIN -- ON THE HUSTINGS WITH JOHN ROBARTS Premier John Robarts is a political pro. He knows how to exude charm, warmth and friendliness. He rarely misses a chance to stand patiently at the head of a receiving line, shake hands with the little man and indulge in small talk, no matter how prolonged. He gave another impressive display of this fine vote- catching technique Wednesday night following the Civic Din- ner tendered by the Councils of the County of Ontario and the City of Oshawa. This point conceded, Mr. Robarts is not exactly a show-stopper as an after- dinner speaker, if his last , two appearances in Oshawa > are any criterion. He spoke like a man who was sincere- ly happy to be back among friends. His audience. of more than 350 appeared to enjoy his folksey, homespun address (devoid of any sen- sationalism, such as was contained in his Tuesday night speech at London when he warned municipalities that the Ontario govern- ment would intrude further on their autonomy; if neces- sary, to ensure sound com- munity planning.) Mr. Robarts pointed out that Ontario is in the midst of -- and part of -- one of "the most spectacular economic. revolu- tions in our country." becatise it was made up in the past "of great men -- men pre- pared to build the physical assets on which this country rests," Perhaps it was the right type of address for such an occa- sion, but Mr. Robarts said nothing profound. He quoted ex- tensively from "Upper Canada Sketches', an historical book dealing with preparations in Oshawa for the Fenian Raids in 1867 and pointed out that the author was Thomas Conant, father of the late Gordon Conant of Oshawa (five years Attorney-General and nine months Premier of Ontario in the 1940's). Mr. Robarts disappeared for an hour after the court- house ceremony to the home of Health Minister Matthew B Dymond in Port Perry. ("He wanted to examine my de- partmental program," explained Dr. Dymond. "'It is the only time I can see him and I've got to get going for next year. He is under tremendous - pressure to be everywhere at once.") Col. R. S. McLaughlin told the Civic Dinner guests: '"T came away from the new courthouse today as proud as a peacock. I asked my doctor when I came here tonight if this was to he a two-cigar or a one-cigar banquet and he said a one-cigar. I hope you, sir, (turning. te Mr. Robarts) won't be longer than one cigar." "JOHN ROBARTS He said that this Province was great Aoi IN DEFENCE OF THE UNION JACK "IT was never so proud as I was today at the opening of the new courthouse building when I heard the Band of the Ontario Regiment and saw that Union Jack flying in the breeze -- 1 don't know how long that flag will continue with us, but it sure would make me feel strange to see it replaced." MAYOR LYMAN GIFFORD, at the Civic Dinner Wed- nesday night } LITTLE NOTES. FROM HERE ANU THERE The Oshawa Hawkeyes of the Eastern Junior Football Conference deserve a helping hand Saturday in their game against Burlington Braves at Kinsmen Stadium (at p.m.) The Hawkeyes will be out to improve their record (t o wins and four losses), but, most of all, they will be out to raise money for one of their star performers, Fullback "Ted" Napiorowski, who broke his leg against Lakeshore Bears here in the third game of the season. Napiorowski's loss is a big one as he will play no more this season. This will be a bene- fit-game. Al} proceeds will go to the injured player. - . . Mr. and Mrs. George J. Jackson of 110 Park road north spent three weeks in San Francisco last month with their son, Don, one of the stars of the Ice Follies. He is scheduled to rekiinie practice Saturday in preparation for his return to the show in about two weeks. 116TH. "OLD SWEATS" TO MEET HERE NOVEMBER 6 Remember the time-worn axiom: 'Old 'Soldiers Never Die?" {t's true, or at least almost true. About 135. "'Old Sweats" are expected to turn up in Osh- awa (some from distant points) Friday, November 6, at an auspicious occasion -- the 46th. Reunion of the 110th. Battal- ion.

William L, Pierson, of 40 Gibbons street is chairman of this year's reunion com- mittee. He visited last month with Lieutenant-Governor G. R. Pearkes of British Colum- bia (former Federal Minister of Defence) who led the 116th. in those dark days from the Fall of 1917 to the Armistice. They met at Govern- ment House in Victoria, B.C., and the Lieutenant-Governor re- called that he had led the 116th. when they returned to Osh- awa from overseas following the Armistice. He will not be able to attend the reunion, but.Herb Cook (who now resides in Toronto) may be on hand. HERB COOK Cook is the former Oshawa boy who made good in a big way in the world-wide chain store dynasty of the F. W. Wool- worth company. When he retired two years ago, he was ex- ecutive vice-president of the international company. Cook worked in Oshawa in 1913 as an assistant in a bakery, He got $7 a week, on which he had to help support his mother. He was tendered a civic reception here May 7, 1959, when Lyman Gifford was mayor.
