The speaker on this auspicious occasion will be Joseph Lizew- ski, of the leaders of the Polish community in Canada. Mr. Lizewski is very well known among the Polish com- munity not only in Oshawa, but also in Toronto area where he resides. He distinguished him- self in the field of social work among the Polish people and other groups through his many years of service in peace time as well as during the two World Wars. Mr. Lizewski organized the Polish Vets from the first World War in 1934 and became the first president.

The contractor, Michael Zygocki, of 213 Southlawn ave- nue, at first refused to accept the board's cold shoulder after Frank E. Shine, business ad- ministrator. of Oshawa separate schools, told him the board had decided not to hear him. About an hour had passed when Mr. Shine reported to the board that Mr. Zygocki was still in the waiting room. Mr. Shine said Mr. Zygocki had spoken to him earlier about offering a dif- ferent portion of his property to the board "for a_ ridiculous sum" instead: of the land which the board had asked ex- propriated. Trustee Michael Rudka intro- duced a motion to rescind the earlier motion that Mr, Zygocki be heard. It was seconded by Dr. George Sciuk. Speaking on the motion, Trus- tee Ernest Marks said it would be dangerous to hear Mr. Zygocki on this matter which is now before the courts. He said such offers should be made through Mr. Zygocki's lawyer to the board's lawyer who in turn would report to the | board. Trustee Richard Donald, also a lawyer, said: "If he (Mr. Zygocki) comes through that door I'll walk out." "T feel the same way," said Mr. Marks. Mr. Rudka said that in that case he would withdraw his mo- tion, Dr. Sciuk, the motion's seconder, agreed. Mr. Shine was again faced with the task of informing Mr. Zygocki of the board's further decision. In a few minutes he returned to the board room to report that Mr, Zygocki had left after threatening to return with his lawyer. He hadn't returned by the time. the board meeting ended at 11.15 p.m., 15 minutes past its curfew hour. SPEAKS AT BARRIE M. Mcintyre Hood, editorial page editor of The Oshawa Times, was guest speaker on Thursday at the weekly lunch- eon of the Barrie Rotary Club. In keeping with the observance of National Newspaper Week, Mr. Hood spoke on the "Free- dom of the Press," dealing in particular with the dangers to free democracy of the abridge- ment of press freedom,on many countries in the world, especial- ly in countries now emerging into independence for the first time.

McEwen Senior School, re- peated the speech which won him first prize in the GOCC pub- lic school contest for seniors. In the speech, a plea for aid to the handicapped (the Rehabilita- tion Foundation for the Dis- abled, March of Dimes, is one of 20 agencies to benefit from this campaign) the youth held out a dollar and said: 'I will give the first dollar; will you give the second?" Said Dr. Jones: "A child's dol- lar, especially when earned by himself, means as much as General Motors' $55,000 or Mr. R. S.'s $25,000."

Keith Ross, United Steelwork- ers of America International representative, urged participa- tion in plant payroll deduction plans for "painless giving". He paid tribute to the budgeting done by benefiting agencies. "It's wonderful the job they do; I don't know how they spread the money around and do so much with it."

Dr. Richard D. Jones Thurs- day night. Speaking before 325 canvas- sers at the General Motors- hosted. "Kick-Off Dinner' at Hotel Genosha, Dr. Jones as- sured them they will get per- sonal satisfaction "far beyond the gold and silver you will ac- cumulate (in this life) by the tremendous job you will do for others." Dr. Jones, national executive director of the Canadian Coun- cil of Christians and Jews for the last 17 years, said he has "no fault to find' with a soc- iety influenced by the attain- ment of possessions. SERVICE BEFORE SELF "But there is much satisfac- tion to be found in service be- fore self," he said. "There may be a family on the verge of breaking up. There may be a child who misses an opportunity (because money is not available) when service is not forthcoming. "Money collected by your- selves can provide there ser- vices," he said. "You are giv- ing the community a heart; you are strengthening the fab- ric of the community, the country.

You are doing something right in the eyes of God." Dr. Jones warned the can- vassers they will hear more reasons for not giving "than you ever thought possible."
