Firemen's Convention Plans Nearly Ready AJAX (Staff) -- Ajax fire- fighters, handicapped by the postal strike, are putting the finishing touches on prepara- tions for the 64th annual On- tario Firemen's Convention here this weekend. Firefighters have refused to cross 'the mailmen's picket lines to pick up letters from other departments requesting accommodation and parade en- tries. Convention Chairman Ben Severs said the fire fighters were in sympathy with the postal employees and were pre- paring emergency accommoda- tion for delegates who had fail- ed to make reservations be- fore the strike began. Parade entries from other departments will be taken care of as they arrive.

From Millbrook there will be an 1814 and an 1855 pumper while . Neweastle will display their 1965 Thibeule Pumper, one of the most modern pieces of fire fighting equipment in the province.
