The public works and traffic committees, decided to recom- mend to city council that a let- ter be sent to the board of gov- ernors for the college, propos- ed for location just north of Oshawa, advising that city sew- er piping would be linked to the institute by Aug. 1, 1969. One stipulation in the recom- mendation is that "suitable fin- ancial arrangements" for the $229,000 cost of extending the Oshawa creek trunk sewage line would be subject to final negotiation by the end of this year.

In his speech, Mr, Welch re- ferred to the Conservative elec- lion record in the province of Ontario, which he said, points out that the party "thas already won seven clear mandates to govern"'. He said although the date of the upcoming provincial elec- tion is still unknown, when it does come about the Conserva- tive party must not enter it as a party on the defensive. CO-ORDINATION "The future strength of Can- ada and the welfare of all its people will depend upon the measure of co-ordination and continuing co-operation which can be established between all agencies of those ments,"' he said. Mr. Welch said youth had a most important part to play in the future of the party. He said, "let us as a party be sure that there is always room for their vigor -- their fresh approach-- indeed their idealism. It is con- sistent with the whole concept of 'participatory democracy'." In closing Mr. Welch said, "the next campaign will not be one during which we plead for mercy in some defensive way-- and I hope no one will spend too much valuable time in downgrading the opposition -- for they should be treated more with sorrow, than anger at their refusal to identify them- selves with what has been going on in Ontario in the last two decades"', Before Mr. Welch's speech, Albert Walker, Oshawa MPP, hazarded a guess as to the date for the coming provincial elec- ion, "J don't think there will be an election in June," he said. 'In my own opinion I feel there could be an election called for STUDENTS PROUD BLISTERED FEET Twelve students at Oshawa Catholic High School realize today their feet are not only made for walking -- but for making money too. Ten girls and two boys col- lected well over $300 for their participation in a 30 - mile "criss - cross'. walk through Toronto on Saturday. The walk was organized by OXFAM, an international or- ganization to raise money to feed the hungry of the world. All Oshawa students, sponsor- ed by fellow students and lo- cal merchants walked at least 20 miles and six completed 30 miles in running shoes or bare feet. One girl was absent from school yesterday, two were treated by the St. John Am- bulance and all agree they are proud of their blistered feet. Resources Commission that called for a commitment on Oshawa's part before a tempo- rary sewage lagoon is legally possible. If city countil approves the recommendation of the two com- mittees it would mean college planners could go ahead with the lagoon which would service = e "portables" at a cost of $10,000 each that would go into use by next September. Before the per- manent structure of the college is erected, another 10 porta- bles will be in use. About 250 to 300 students are expected to start college classes next Sep- tember and in 1968 about 600 would be enrolled. The college is planned for construction on more than a 190- acre site at the junction of Sim- coe Street North and the Fifth Concessiun. The recommendation to city council was made after Gordon Riehl, vice - chairman of the 13 - member board of college governors, explained the OWRC requirement to go ahead with the lagoon and that, "'this is just a temporary site. We can re-locate."" On the other hand, he told the committees that architects and engineers made a priority recommendation on the. current proposed site after considering a total of 13 locations. The cost of the land to the Ontario government, sponsor of a community college system for the province, has been set- tled at about $2,000 an acre. WATER MAIN porary 11 devel /p ts now under way.

Robert Nicol, Mr. Riehl said, "suitable financial arrange- ments" for the cost of extend- ing the Oshawa Creek trunk sewage line to the college would mean they would have to be suitable to you (the city)." The trunk line now ends at Switzer Drive, which is located about one - third of the travel- ling distance between Rossland and Taunton Road. EXTENSION COST Fred Crome, city commission- | er°of works, said it would cost| about $179,000 to extend the line up the Creek Valley to Simcoe Street. The balance of the dis- tance to the college would in- volve a cost of about $50,000. "We thought the province would pay it all," said Mr. Riehl. 'Then we were told when we submitted our budget (to the board of regents governing the entire community college system) that they would like us to talk with the local muni- cipality to see if they would cover the cost of the sewage service." A spectator at the meeting, Ald. Ernest Whiting, said the city might have to "sacrifice a bit" but he added that, "we'd be paid back 10 times" in sub- Despite a fire which recently destroyed a Toronto portable classroom in 10 minutes, Dr. C.

Drury Talk George Burt, Canadian UAW board of education meeting his request for two additional port- ables -- one at Mary Street Mexican Girl Director, in an interview yes- terday, accused Industry Mini- ster Charles Drury of "lining the Canadian government up on the side of management"'. Mr. Burt said Mr. Drury, in speaking at the Reform Club in Montreal last week, said words to the effect that Cana- dian workers lacked productivi- ty compared to U.S. workers. Wage parity with U.S. auto workers will be sought by Cana- dian workers when bargaining starts about Sept. 1 "Drury is loading on the backs of car workers responsi- bility for productivity while none of our agreements give us the right to argue about the lo- cation of plants or the tools we use," said Mr. Burt. He also said Mr. Drury's statement has made American manufacturers hesitant about locating in Canada. He said he could give examples but declin- ed to do so. A man who died recently in hospital received about 100 pints and several others received 15 pints, says Robert Stroud, chair- man of the Red Cross Blood Donor Clinic. "We never know how much we will actually need," said Mrs. Stroud. "The population gets bigger and there are more patients at the hospital --but we never have enough blood. "When so many are using blood--a pint here, a pint there, Blood Shortage Continues, Clinic Schedule ursday then you have large portions of your supply used. It dwindles rapidly," he said. "Every month we have to scramble for blood for patients at the hospital and send special donors. When we do this, we lose a pint of blood for the clinic, The next clinic will be held Thursday at St. Gregory's Audi- torium, Simcoe Street North. Two clinics will be held, one from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. and the other from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. At McLaughlin Board of education trustees last night agreed to waive the usual $480 fee for students at- tending a school outside of their home district to allow a Mexican girl to attend R. S. McLaughlin Collegiate and Vo- cational Institute. The fee has. been dropped in previous cases but only on com- passionate grounds when a child's parents could not afford to pay. The Mexican girl will stay with an Oshawa family and at- tend school with their daughter. She is hoping to improve her English during her year at Mc- Laughlin. The motion passed by the trustees said the case was to be considered an exception and would not necessarily act as a precedent. Police Abandon Search For Men Extra Portables Backed By Board school and one at Westmount school, was approved. There are presently 18 portables in Osh- awa public schools and one at! a high school. Dr. Elliott said because the buildings were frame they were prone to burning fast but every safety precaution has taken. "The rooms are well been con- sequent investments in the city. Chairman of the meeting, Ald. Bruce Mackey, said the community college "'people" are aware of Oshawa's problem and would be "fair" in negotia- tions over sewage line finan- cing. Mr. Riehl was on hand for the special meeting along with Neil Smith, Ontario County council representative on the board of governors. DEVELOPMENT In an interview following the hearing, Mr. Crome said dev- elopment of some land in north Oshawa would have to be halt- ed until a sewage line, other than the Creek trunk extension, could be put in. The proposed has two exits so that in the event of fire they can be evacu- ated in one minute or even less," he said. Fire regulations require the portables to be a certain dis- tance from other buildings. Dr. Elliott said the portable which burned was only one of thousands in the Metro Toronto area. "The incidence of fire is low." A Grade four class left the Toronto portable for the library minutes before it caught fire. Schools Receive Centennial Book The purchase of 101 centennial books for placement in Oshawa schools was approved last night by the board of education. The Parge 18 by 24 inch soft cover books are a_ centennial project of the Borough of Etobi- coke. By using reproductions of old newspapers and _ photo- graphs they show the highlights of Canada's last 100 years. When purchased in lots of over 100 the books, called "Golden Leaves from Canada's Past" cost $2.40 each.

Among the highlights of the visit. to Ottawa was presenta- tion of certificates of Canadian citizenship to the students by Justice Minister Trudeau, the opening of the Tulip Festival by Queen Juliana of the Nether- lands, and a visit to Expo in Montreal, hope that the men might still be alive. ; The two men are Cecil Pearn, 37, of Ritson Rd.
