§@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, Jenuery 9, 1969 GOOD EVENIN -- By JACK GEARIN -- CITY COUNCIL HAS A NEW LOOK Everything looked the same outwardly, but it was differ- ent this week as the 1965-66 elected representatives at City Hall made their debut. City Council had an unmistakable new look -- and wasn't this to be expected with a 25 percent turnover from the recent election (when only 34.38 percent of the electorate bothered to vote -- third lowest since 1947 when only 25.07 percent showed up)? It did seem strange after all those years to see some of those hardy perennials among the permanetly missing (for at least two years), especially vociferous fellows like Finley Dafoe and John Dyer who knew how to make their presence felt in no uncertain terms. It was also strange with Walter Branch not around. But no one is irreplaceable in the tumultuous world of municipal politics, so there were some new faces on hand to fill the gaps, just to prove the old axiom: the show must go on, no matter what. Richard Donald, the erudite young lawyer. from the Osh- awa Separate School Board who hit pay-dirt in his first time out as an aldermanic candidate, was there; so was Alex Shes- towsky, the former Oshawa harbor commissioner turned alder- man, who ran surprisingly strong last Dec. 7 for a sophomore candidate. Included in the Distaff side ranks also were Councillor Aargaret Shaw, the ex-school board trustee who didn't find the aldermanic race too tough (who likes to speak out the truth as she sees it, regardless of the timing or circum- stances). There were some nostalgic moments at Monday night's premiere, such as when Alderman Christine Thomas (a former mayor) turned her, heavy vocal artillery on His Worship Ly- man Gifford (the present mayor and her opponent in two bitterly-fought mayoralties). Mrs. 'Thomas didn't like certain Council procedures in regard to selecting standing commit- tees or the deputy mayor (Clifford Pilkey). It was just like the old days when she and Mr. Gifford would cross swords at the drop of a hat (with few holds barred.) ALDERMAN GAY DESERVES SUPPORT ON THIS Ald. Cephas Gay would be named Citizen of the Year at least if he pursued his proposal for a $300 assessment exemp- tion -- with no time limit -- to a successful conclusion in Council. Perhaps he will get support for the move now that Toron- to's Mayor Givens has suggested a seven-year tax exemption on private home renovations to a maximum of $5,000. Mr. Gay's proposal has been kicking around Council for four years now, but it was given new prominence last week when the City assessment department announced that it would undertake a reinspection" of homes and properties in Wards 4 and 5 (to look for structural changes -- additions, recrea- tion rooms, improved plumbing." It seems like a criminal shame that proud citizens who wish to improve their properties, especially the appearance, should be taxed extra in this manner. Such an extra tax pro- vides a heavy burden for the small property owner, an un- necessary one in the opinion of hundreds in this city. "FEEL REAL FINE" -- COL. McLAUGHLIN Col. R. S.

QUOTATION-OF-THE-WEEK DEPT.: "The age in which we live demands the kind of horse- sense so often called common and yet so uncommon; it de- mands flexibility without abandoning integrity; it requires sensitivity to the new forces in community life and a deep- rooted sense of values. . . . Nothing indicates more clearly the vitality and health of a community than the willingness of men and women to place themselves before the electorate or of the electorate to take a mature and active interest in elec- tions. However, no one could be proud of the poor turnout of voters at the civic election in Oshawa recently." REV. F. G. ONGLEY to City Council this week.
