A highlight of the report shows. that 1,739 visits were made to 546 families during July, August and September. Other statistics show that in- fant visits made included: 204 visits made to infants under two weeks of age; nine demonstration baths were given at the request of parents; 121 visits were made to infants trom two weeks to one month of age; 388 visits were made to infants from one month to one year of age. Pre-Natal: 51 visiis were made to pre-natal cases. Pre- School: 230 visits were made on behalf of the pre-school child. School: 217 visits were made on behalf of the school child. Tuberculosis: 22 visits were made to patients dicharged from sanatorium; 14 visits were made to contacts of tuberculosis. Acute Communicable Disease: 35 visits were made to cases of communicable disease. Mental health program: 12 visits were made to persons dis- charged from hospital. Licensed baby boarding homes; 13 visits were made to baby boarding homes. Pre-Natal: The fall series of pre-natal classes started _Sep- tember 14 with a registration of 50 persons. SCHOOL HEALTH SERVICE The school health service re- quired more nursing time than any other activity. The ever in- creasing demands for nursing service in this area leave little time for the many other activi- ties expected of the nurse in a generalized public health nurs- ing program, If we are to keep up with present programs we shall have to try some new ap- proaches to staffing. The increase in the school population this September is about 2,141. In September 306 visits to ele- mentary and secondary schools were made. During the month the pupils in 461 classrooms were inspected. 48 pupils from various schools were excluded with pediculosis compared with two exclusions for the same period a year ago. While this is considered a minor communica- ble disease, it does cause school absenteeism, and takes a great deal of nursing time to prevent it from spreading. Summary of activities: 151 conferences were held with teachers; 420 students were re- ferred to the health service; 60 conferences were , held with secondary school students; 402 pupils entering school were given a physical examination by family | physicians.

But William Boddy, dean of the PUC with 27 years service, said today he was undecided about seeking re-election and will wait:and '"'see how the field is" before making a defi- nite decision. E. F. Armstrong, chairman with 11 years' service, H. F. Baldwin, vice-chairman with 16 years service and Roy Fleming, seven years service, have all decided to seek re-election. Fred Popham, three times an unsuccessful PUC candidate, said today the field is very challenging and he said it is "pretty likely' he will throw his hat into the election ring. Mr. Popham. said he would make a final decision early next week. Mrs. T. D. Thomas, former mayor of Oshawa, said she "never at any time considered seeking a PUC seat." First indi- cations were only that Mrs. Thomas would be a candidate for some municipal office. OGH-Union Hearing Today Judge H. C.

Leclerc Takes Seat As Trustee Alcide Leclerc slipped into his Separate School Board seat this week--by the narrow margin of two days. Trustee Leclerc is completing] ©. the last two months of the un- expired term of Richard Don- ald, who resigned from the board Nov. 5, to seek an alder- manic seat. But if Mr. Donald had: re- signed two days later, the un- expired term would have re- mained vacant until the new year. Frank Shine, business ad- ministrator, told The Times that according to the Separate Schools Act, if a vacancy occurs one. month before an election, the vacancy remains open until after the election. Mr. Leclerc, 125 Banting ave- nue, said he would seek re- election to the board in the Dec. 7 election. Mr. Leclerc, 38, is married and has two daughters. He has lived in Oshawa for 12 years and is yard superinten- dent at the Oshawa Yacht Haven Ltd. He was defeated in 1962, in his first try for a seat on the board.

Riznek Construction Ltd., which made the request, plan- ned to construct a small plaza including a supermarket on the site. The request was previously rejected by the board but coun- cil sent it back for further con- sideration. Planning board member Ald. John Dyer favored rezoning but the request was turned down by board members, Dennis Tyce, E. F, Armstrong, Mayor Lyman Gifford and Ald: Cliff Pilkey. IBEW Seeking Bargain Right The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers union is seeking bargaining rights for Bell Telephone. Company em- ployees in Oshawa. About 350 employees from the Toronto, Guelph, Kitchener, Newmarket, Belleville and Osh- awa areas attended an argani- zation meeting in the Oshawa Kinsmen. Community Centre, Thursday night. William Ladyman, tional vice - president of the IBEW in Canada, addressed the meeting. Kenneth Rose, an_ interna- tional representative of the union, said in a telephone in- terview today that the Bell em- ployees are "unhappy with the Canadian Telephone Employees Association and the last con- tract." The CTEA represents Bell employees in Ontario and Quebec. He said the contract gave a $4 pay increase to Bell Tele- phone employees in Toronto and Montreal and $3.50 to employees outside these two centres. interna- Opinion On Board Power ToBe Sought} Legal opinions on two ques- tions concerning rezoning we ro f|Digby - Dover - Surrey dri area will be sought by the Oshawa Planning Board. 4 A small group of home own- ers from the area asked the board at a meeting Thursday night to change the zoning which permits up to five-family dwellings to single family dweill- ings. The home owners are protest- ing the building of triplexes in the area. A. W. Howard, spokes- man for the group, said few of the properties would have been sold to the present owners had they known anything but single family homes could be built in the area, At the meeting Thurs- day night and at a previous]; council meeting, Mr. Howard claimed misrepresentation by a| 7 developer and three real estate 7 firms. "People who bought homes in| 7 the area were led down the gar- den path," said Mr. He said home-owners stand to take a $1,000 loss in the value of their property. LEGAL OPINION Mayor 'Lyman Gifford sug- : gested the solicitor's opinion be sought by the board on whether the board has the p.wer to re- zone @ parcel of land on which the board has already approved a plan of subdivision, The plan is now in the hands of the department of municipal affairs for approval. The first legal question con- cerns land in the area where the triplexes are now being con- structed. Mayor Gifford said another parcel of land to the east has mot been built upon and no plan of subdivision on the land has been approved by the board. The mayor suggested the soli- citor's opinion on whether " board can rezone a parcel of land, already zoned for five family dwellings which was pur- chased by a developer prior to any indication of rezoning. Both suggestions were ap- proved by the board. Police Cruiser Is Damaged An Oshawa police cruiser was smashed Thursday night as Constable Neil Attersley tried to run down a 90-mile per hour driver. The smash-up occurred out- side the city limits, at the cor- ner of Rossland and Garrard roads in Whitby Township. Constable Attersley was pur- suing the offending driver out of the city at the time. He said he went over a hill to see the brake lights of the speeding car, swerved to avoid collision, and glanced off an eastbound .car driven by Irene Donna Graham, 20, of 1181 Fairlawn street. The cruiser then was pulled back into the west-bound lane to collide with the car which was being pursued. Damage to the cruiser was $500, and to the Graham car, $300. The offending driver left the scene and sped away, the officer said. Harry James Allan, 19, of 64 Scott road, RR 3, Oshawa, was subsequently arrested, and charged with dangerous driv- ing. Damage estimated at $150 was sustained by his auto- mobile.

The men are members of Local 969, Oshawa Typographi- cal Union, and former employ- ees of Inter City Typesetting! Ltd. The company went out of business in July. The printers gave evidence at Land Sale Is Refused A request by the Oshawa Separate School Board to pur- chase 10 acres of airport proper- ty, has been turned down by city council, Lloyd Bolahood, chairman, told trustees this week, The board wishes to buy the land and erect a new elemen- tary school and an administra- tion building. Trustee Bolahood said he and business administrator Frank Shine met with a council com- mittee Monday night. He said the main objection was that the committee did not want the airport property dis- turbed as members felt the loss of 10 acres might hinder future airport expansion. However, the board chairman said the planning board and the Department of Transport had no objections to the board's re- quest. The city rents the airport property from the federal gov- ernment. Trustees decided not to press the request further this year but to approach the new council early next year. an OLRB hearing of a union application asking for leave to prosecute C. E. Stewart, Inter City president, and David Russell, vice-president, for five breaches of the OLR Act. The union charged that they breach- ed the act by trying to per- suade the men to leave the union. GET GP WORK Harold Parrot, of Oshawa, said that the compositors set five jobs for General Printers Ltd., a plant where 25 OTU members have been on strike since June 8, but no more work from the strike-bound plant. Mr. Parrot stated that the five jobs were customarily done by Inter City Press. He testi- fied that Mr. Stewart told him June 22 that the company would oY if it did not do work for "> He said that he was offered, in the presence of Mr. Russell, a fully paid pension and ajob guarantee if he would agree to perform GP work. He said Mr. Stewart told him: "You can get along without a union card." Mr. Parrott he refused the offer and was dismissed two days later. Elvin Wilson, a deaf mute who gave evidence through writ- ten notes, said that he was offer- ed a $10 wage increase by Mr. Stewart. Mr. Wilson wrote: 'He prom- ised to give me a raise and top seniority but first give up union card." Another printer, Peter Scott, said that Mr. Stewart offered him more money. "He said that I would have a good future with the company if I gave up my union card," Mr, Scott said. OFFERED INDUCEMENTS that he was offered induce- ments to leave the union. C., A. Morley, counsel for the two Inter City officers, ques- tioned that the printers were asked to give up their union cards. He said they knew that performing struck work was inconsistent with union mem- bership and the suggestion was in their minds only. It was clear from the evi- dence, he argued, that Mr. Stewart's object was to keep the workers in the plant doing whatever work was assigned to them so the company could continue to function. He said there was mo evidence to im- Plicate Mr. Russell as he just sat in on some of the inter- views while Mr. Stewart was alleged to have done the talk- ing. Union counsel Ian interviews and his silence. The Board reserved judgment on the ap- plication. Mr, Stewart, who now oper- ates Stewart Typesetting, Al- bert street, refused to comment on Thursday's hearing. "It is now in the hands of 'the Board," he said.
