COUNTY COURT Breach Of Promise Suit Costs City Man $1,122 WHITBY (Staff) -- A $4,000 wedding with a girl he hadn't seen for years was too much for Sevario Defeice, 24, a re- eent immigrant to Canada. He appeared in Ontario Coun- ty Court Tuesday, to answer to a breach of promise to marry suit brought against him by Maria Dipadova, 23, 172 Burk Street, Oshawa. The couple, court was told, had known each other since their childhood in Italy. Miss Dipadova moved to Canada in 1964 and began working in Whitby. Later, Defeice alleged- ly corresponded with Miss Dipadova's mother mentioning that he would like to marry the girl, and exchange of letters between the couple com- menced. Defeice, while in Italy, agreed to marry the girl and was sent money for the air fare to Can- ada. They were to be married August 6, 1966. The defendant, two days after his arrival in Canada and after the wedding invitations had been sent out and all ar- rangements made, refused to marry Miss Dipadova, saying only that she had changed. Mr. Defeice told Judge A. C. Hall that when he arrived in Canada, all the arrangements had been made in advance, without his advice or consent. Speaking through an_ inter- preter, he told the court that the Dipadova family told him they wanted $4,000 for a wed- ding, although they were aware election program "'later" would abolish popularity - con- test elections, Mr. Aylin gsays. The transition is coming but it probably will not be in effect for the next municipal election. The party should have an that Mr. Cumpsty says feelings are mixed on the municipal program theory and that a pro- vincial conference could be in the offing to get a general air- ing of views in Ontario. that he had no money. Judge A. C, Hall allowed the suit against Defeice in the amount of $1,122, including $622 in admitted costs and $500 for the girl's embarrassment and humiliation. SUIT LOST William LL. Dougan, real estate broker, 1363 Simcoe St. N., lost his suit against Henry | | and Erika Nass and Jerry] ® Bosancich of Toronto. Mr. Dou-| | gan was claiming a commis- sion on property owned by the| ' Nasses. On March 20, 1966, the Nass| : couple signed. an "exclusive listing contract'? with Mr. Dou- gan, which gave Mr. Dougan : exclusive rights to sell the Nass| % property until its expiry May 30, 1966 or the 90 days follow- ing, if the purchaser was a per- son introduced by Mr. Dougan prior to expiry of the contract. Mr. Dougan contended that the property had been pur- chased during that period by Jerry Bosancich, a person he introduced to the Nasses. Judge A. C, Hall ruled that the onus was on the plaintiff to prove that the property had been sold to such a person that the contract specified and dis- missed the suit, with costs to! be paid by the plaintiff.

In a letter to city council the township council unanimously objected to an increase of $695 \providing accommodation for the city's industrial waste. The township warned it does not have to use Oshawa's dump land does not have to allow the dumping of industrial wastes from Oshawa industries in the township. It said, "'a move could be jmade to stop this industrial waste dumping, and the city would have to find another place for it to be dumped." |\COSTS CITED The township charged that \the provision of this facility jover the years has cost the township a_ great deal of money. Extra fire protection, road maintenance and _ legal fees were named as factors. In addition the township said, "time consuming and costly" efforts have been made to have the company (Indus- trial Disposal, Oshawa Ltd.) operate in a proper manner.
