/ 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, Jenuery 5, 1967 A GLANCE AROUND THE GLOBE Auto Safety Efforts To Benefit Canadians #28. ene OTTAWA (CP) Industry Minister Drury, responsible in the federal cabinet for its auto safety program, said Wednes: day he is sure Canadian motor- ists will benefit from U.S. ef- forts to improve car design and engineering. : Without commenting directly on differences between U.S. manufacturers and Washington authorities on the safety fea- tures to be incorporated in 1968 models, Mr. Drury 'said Cana dian manufacturers would fol low the lead of their American owners. Replying to.questions at a press conference, Mr. Drury said discussions with the Amer- = icans "'are still in train," and the final result of the talks have not been reached. Because of the U.S.-Canada auto free trade pact, production by the major manufacturers in Canada and the United States are being integrated in such a way that features added to U.S. models will naturally be incor- porated in Canadian models. Chief On Tape MONTREAL (CP) -- Norman J. MacMillan, the new chair- man and president of Canadian National Railways, is deter- mined to "achieve a more per- sonal medium of contact with employees' -- via video tape. About 50,000 of the company's 92,000 employees are expected to see--on company time--any of 13 closed circuit video or 45 film versions of a half-hour in- terview with the new president. Two Seek Homes MILAN (AFP)--Two 17-year- old Czech students who want to emigrate to Canada have re- quested political asylum in Italy, police said Thursday. The two youths, both from Prague, were on a study visit to Yugo- salvia with other students from their college, but got away from the group in Belgrade and man- aged to cross the border into northern Italy. Kingston Party KINGSTON (CP) -- Kingston will open its centennial celebra- tions with a birthday party for a hometown boy who made good--Sir John A. Macdonald. A full day of festivities is planned for Jan. 11, the 152nd anniversary of the birth of Mac- donald, Canada's first prime minister. Prime Minister Pear- gon will speak at opening cere- monies. Fallout At Peak BERKELEY, Calif. (AP)-- Radioactive fallout in California this week has been the highest since 1962, reports Lester Bres- low, state health director. Dr. Breslow said the fallout re- ~wulted "apparently from the Dec. 28 Chinese deonation of a nuclear device." Stole From Widow OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)--For- mer Oakland mayor John C. Houlihan was sentenced Wed- nesday to one to 10 years in prison for embezzling $97,000 from a widow's estate. Houli- han, 56, was convicted of the embezzling charge last year. Tops In Snow HERMAN, Mich. (AP)--Mrs. Leonard Lahti, who keeps an official snow depth chart for the state department of conserva- tion, reported Wednesday that 142 inches of snow just two inches shy of 12 feet--had fallen on Herman since Nov. 18. That's top for all stations in the U.S. east of the Rockies, and winter barely is under way. Snowfall tabulation doesn't end until May 3. Rookie At 70 DEARBORN, Mo.

The magistrate ordered Crown Attorney Lloyd Graburn to investigate the CFRB broad- cast. At the preliminary hearing, medical witnesses have testi- fied they were unable to deter- mine what killed a woman who, the Crown contends, was 56- year-old Minnie Ford, a widow who disappeared during the Victoria Day weekend in 1963.

The newspaper Sovetskaya Rossiy says some 30 firls are kidnapped 'each year in the mountain republic of North Ossetia. Following a code similar to that- operating in Sicily, most accepted their fate and married their strong- arm suitor. Many of the girls went wil- lingly and even looked for- ward to the marriage which would follow, but about one in 10 submitted unwillingly, the newspaper says. The girl who refused, MOUNTAIN MAID DEFIES CODE REFUSES TO WED KIDNAPPER 'named only as Tamara, was bundled into a car in the town of Alagir in August last year by Khazbechir Tse koyev, whom she had already turned down four times. Tamara did not give in as her would-be in-laws tried for more than three months to talk her into marrying, Sovet- skaya Rossiya says. Tsekoyev and three accom- plices eventually "received their deserts" from a local court but the newspaper does not say what their sentences were. It praises Tamara's cour- age, saying she was a loyal member of the Young Com- munist League and an excel- lent worker at the Alagir elec- tric wire factory. BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE BOWMANVILLE -- An En- terprise driver was convicted of a charge of impaired driving in Magistrate's Court here Tues- day and was fined $50 and $16 costs or seven days. There was an automatic suspension of licence. Police evidence was, that Basil Kavanaugh, who pleaded guilty, was observed crossing the centre line of Highway 2 several times and going on to the shoul- der on two occasions. When Welsh, co-chairman of the Club's Projects Committee, said. IDENTICAL BID The Kinsmen Club made a bid for the land last April. Town council, unaware of this, made en identical bid in Sep- tember. A third bid was made by a group of doctors who did not know of the town's offer. Bowmanville Clerk Robert Byron said the Counties Coun- cil then refused to sell the land and recommended the 1967 council to retain it for county purposes. x Town council have since sub- mitted a fresh bid for $7,000 -- the appraised value of the land -- in the hopes that the new council will reconsider making a sale. Ruthority To Acquire Dam TORONTO (Special) -- A pro- vincial grant of $12,000 to the Otonabee Region Conservation Authority for the acquisition of the Millbrook dam and reser- voir has been approved. Purpose of the project is to acquire the reservoir and sur- rounding land to maintain the dam for water stofage, recharge of ground water supplies, and fire protection for the village. Millbrook, as the main bene- Town council had a dep tion from Mr. Welsh Tuesday asking that if council acquire the land, they sell it to the Kinsmen Club for the amount of the original bid, $3,500. No decision was made on this request, but council felt they might not be allowed to sell the land for less than the cil should surpass the first--in Toronto--in both attracting buy- ers and generating better in- dustrial design for Canadian products, Mr. Drury said. 200 - Mile Claim BUENOS AIRES (Reuters)-- Dorothy Mercer; associate patron, James Martin; conduc- tress, Mrs. Helen Curoux; as- sociate conductress, Mrs. Mable Greenham; treasurer, Mrs. Lola Freeman; secretary, Mrs. Beth Teeple; organist, Mrs. Nellie Pring; chaplain, Mrs. Florence Ferguson; marshal, Mrs. Alice Argentina extended its sover-|Beech. eign off-shore limits to 200) Ada, Mrs. Bernice Hender- miles Wednesday from the pre-|son; Ruth, Mrs. Mary Harri- son; Esther, Mrs. Faye Snider; Martha, Mrs. Mary Wade; Electa, Mrs. Jane Keast; War- der, Mrs. Irene Hall; Sentinel, David Alldread.

"the Divine Form" Opera Star Dies NEW YORK (AP) -- Mary Garden, prima donna of the American Qpera in the early years of the century and one of the great stars and personalit- ies of the international opera circuit, died yesterday in her native Aberdeen, Scotland, at the age of 92. For the first 30 years of the 20th Centry she was the toast of two continghts and news wherever she went. She was known as "Mary Garden of the Divine Form." Talks Approved TOKYO (AP)--Premier Kim Il Sung 6f North Korea has appraisal price they would have to pay. Mr. Welsh said both town council and the Kinsmen Club had similar ideas for the use of the land, and that as far as the administration and resi- dents of the home were con- cerned it would make no differ- ence who owned the land. But, he said, the club was prepared to start the project immediately whereas the coun- cil had other obligations to ful- fill first. It could not go ahead as quickly as we could," he explained. Whoever purchased the land for a_ senior citizens' home would have to set up a limited dividend company to admin- ister and maintain it. 'We figure the building could cost anything up to $150,000 and would probably have 20 apart- ment suites," he said. Since Counties Council's de- cision not to sell in November, the Kinsmen Club had consid- ered other land. fitting icipality, will pay the major share of the Authority's portion of the cost. The grant is made under the Impaired Driving Guilt Brings $50 Fine, Or Jail stopped the accused, who was accompanied by three small children, staggered when he walked, smelled strongly of al- cohol and had bloodshot éyes. ) CHARGE DISMISSED A psychologist from the Peterborough Civic Hospital had a charge of careless driv- ing dismissed by Magistrate R, B. Baxter. Stanley Alfred Cook, Downsview, pleaded not guilty to the charge. John Carscadden, the op- erator of a school bus, said he stopped near the intersection of Highway 35 and 115 to pick up several children when another vehicle ran into the rear of the bus. Cook explained his brakes had been pulling to thes right the week before. He produced a re- ceipt for the repair work done by a Toronto garage. He said WEATHER FORECAST a. Few Snowllurries Ahead Temperature Drop Seen 'TORONTO (CP) -- Forecasts issued at 5.30 a.m. Synopsis: A few snowflurries are forecast for southern On- tario today and cold sunny weather for Northern Ontario. A storm now crossing the Rocky Mountains is expected to bring increasing cloudiness fol- lowed by snow to western sec- tions of Ontario late Friday. Lake St. Clair, Lake Erie, Niagara, western Lake Ontario, Lake. Huron, southern Georgian Bay, Windsor, London, Toronto, Hamilton: Mostly cloudy with scattered snowflurries today. Tax Arrears Cause Concern BOWMANVILLE (Staff) Concern about the tax arrears in Bowmanville was expressed by Clerk - treasurer Robert Byron at town council's inaugu- ral meeting, Tuesday. These could have a detrimental effect on the town, he felt. The largest single item of accounts receivable each year in Bowmanville is tax arrears. At the end of 1965, these totalled $159,000 and although the figures for 1966 were,not final, Mr. Byron expect the tax arrears to be at least as much, if not more, than in 1965. A municipality estimates an- nually what it must spend and how much it will receive in grants, etc., and raise by taxa-|S' tion. Because town council had to meet its commitments in the new year but did not receive all the revenue due to it, it has to borrow money temporarily until it gets the revenue. One ray of light in the picture was that as a percentage of the total levy, taxes were expected to show an improvement over the previous year, said Mr. 'Byron. that when the blinker lights on the bus started to operate, he applied his brakes but his car veered sharply to the right and he slid into the rear of the bus. NOMINAL FINE Capt. Fraser of the Salvation Army spoke on behalf of a local man who appeared for sentence on a charge of driving while his licence was suspended. He said Gordon Fowler is now attending church, has a steady job, supporting his wife in his own apartment and doing well.
