Fired as chief coroner April 7 by a provincial cabinet order- in-council, Dr. Shulman said the offer was made to a To- ronto family that is more con- cerned about supporting Fran- cesco Gualtieri's crippled sister in Corte, Italy. At a New Democratic Party public reception for himself, Dr. Shulman said before Gaul- tieri died in a fire March 31, he (Gaultieri) was the sole supporter of the crippled sister ---a polio victim.

Each of the candidates, Albert Walker (Conservative), James Potticary (Liberal) and Clif- ford Pilkey (NDP), spoke for seven minutes. Mr. Potticary discussed high taxes, to go higher; housing and property owners fighting to hold on to what they have; educa- tional system in Ontario: and the precarious position of labor. He challenged the sitting member, Mr. Walker, to give answers to his questions con- cerning public housing, On- tario's medical health program, welfare, hospitals for citizens and welfare for elderly citizens. Answering his own question, Mr. Potticary said, "We be- lieve in the Liberal money must be spent on wel- fare priorities, not on go-go trains and a half-a-million dol- lar television program". En- larging on his points, the speak- er discussed the problems of low cost second mortgages to make it easier to finance a loan, uniform building laws, and he added 'We don't offer you a Bramalea high cost home, but a home that a work- er can afford'. Concerning the Bramalea project, the speaker pointed out the discrepancies and "'failures "Our people have _partici- economy of the province, to the point that we enjoy a level of prosperity and a standard of living that is second only to the United States."

G. A. Wandless, planning di- rector, said at the same time the board will deal with a zon- ing application of the Jackson property to the south and east of the property under review. He said there had been con- siderable controversy in the area to the south and southeast of the plan concerning the erec- tion of triplexes and fiveplex- es. The recommendation of his staff was that the southerly 132 feet of the property be re-zoned from R-1 to R-1B, and the re- mainder, now zoned as buffer residential be re-zoned to RIB. About 30 residents from sur- rounding districts formed a del- egation to protest against fur- ther departure from single fam- ily dwellings.

Blood Donor -- Clinic Planned | St. Gregory's Auditorium. Clinic officials hope to re- ceive 500 pints of blood. Robert Stroud, chairman of the Red Cross blood donor clinic, says more than 1,000 residents have been asked personally to donate. "We have made enough ap- pointments to get 500 pints if everyone shows up," says Mr. Stroud. 'The only thing is, so) many people don't." | Clinic hours tomorrow at the auditorium on Simcoe Street North will be between 1:30 and 4:30 p.m., and 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. PICKERING (Staff) --Whitby| Forty-three aduit 500 Register For Swimming About 500 adults and children registered for swimming class- es at the new centennial swim- ming pool at Oshawa Civic Auditorium recently. and chil- Adelaide Avenue East, zoned R-2B, measuring 132 feet by 504 feet; another portion, just above this to the north east measuring 198 feet by 504 feet, zoned R-2A, and a strip on the east side of Wilson Road North, measuring 150 feet in jdepth, zoned R-1B. Mr. Foley, who appeared in |person, said he wanted the area re-zoned so he could compiete |the street pattern. Regarding the objection to multiple development, he said he did not want to build multi- ples in the sense of triplicates or more, but only duplexes or jmore, but only duplexes or} |semi-detached dwellings.

There were more to the south and others were planned on the Jackson sub-division to the east. "If this application is ap- proved," he said, '"'we will be ringed by multiple dwellings which will have the effect of degrading our single family dwellings." | ADVERTISING "Tiger,"' a grey and black striped cat who wandered away from home 11 days ago, has been found and returned to his guardians. Mrs. Jack Simmons, 561 Wychwood St., advertised in The Times last week, hoping "Tiger" would be returned. Last night, a resident of Simcoe Street North tele- phoned Mrs. Simmons, who promptly identified the stray cat as 'Tiger.' Mrs. Simmons said the couple who found the cat had seen Tiger's picture in the paper, just as 14 other call- ers had. " WANDERING 'TIGER' FOUND, PAYS OFF Mrs. Simmons said _ the couple refused to accept a reward, Except for being a "little thin,' Tiger is fine again and resting at home today. He was a stray when Mrs, Simmons "adopted" him five months ago. "He kept hang- ing around our house until I realized he had come to stay," said Mrs. Simmons. "Tiger" was in the habit of paigning, Premier John Robaris is spreading unofficial commit- ments across Ontario and it is an "'insult to the electorate that they can be wooed by prom- ises," a New Democratic Party rally, attended by more than 600 people, was told last night. Clifford Pilkey, NDP candi- date for Oshawa riding in the Oct. 17 provincial election, said he was sure 'that many people would be taken in" by the promises for action. He said when the Premier kicked off his campaign in Ham- ilton, he promised that city a $2,000,000 auditorium. Mr. Pilkey said the building committee of Oshawa's Civic Auditorium may have acted pre- maturely in arranging financial the new centennial pool. He said the committee waited until Oct. 6 -- when Premier John Robarts is sched- uled to make an appearance in Oshawa as a part of his cam- paign. "We could have got it (the centennial pool) nothing," Mr. Pilkey said. Mr. Pilkey was speaking at Eastdale Collegiate and Voca- measures for ithe completion of for awa. In an appeal to the audience to join with the party and work to get NDP votes Oct. 17, Mr. Pilkey said his strongest. deter- mination is to return the seai to the NDP fold. The NDP lost Oshawa riding to Albert Walker, Progressive- Conservative seeking re-elec- tion, in the 1963 Oniario general election. ASSESSMENT Thomas Edwards, NDP cane didate in Ontario South riding, lashed out at the government for doing nothing about an "'old and creaking" assessment structure He said between 1955 and 1965 total municipal levies went up 161 per cent; net debentures rose 154 per cent, secondary school levies 286 per cent and education costs took 44 and one should have/half cents of every dollar raised "locally" in 1965.

HILLSDALE AT CAPACITY 120-Bed Rest Home Said Needed By 1968 Additional space is needed at Hillsdale Manor home for the aged to accommodate the grow- ing number of applicants. The committee of manage- ment has told city council a new rest home of at least 120 beds should be erected in 1968 to,meet the need. Estimated cost is $1,200,000. Provincial subsidy would be 50 per cent and the city would be expected to provide $600,000 the committee says. Council on Monday referred a letter from the committee on the subject to the board of con- trol for consideration. St In the letter, city clerk Roy Barrand says the home has been filled to capacity for some time, and during the past two years, management committee has been giving consideration to the need for additional beds. The waiting list on July 12, 1967, was 71 and the demand is increasing daily. NEW TYPE The letter adds that a meef- ing was held on July 12 with N. Drew, director, homes for the aged branch, who to!d them there is a new. 'rest home" type of accommodation avail- able, which could be operated p a in conjunction with Hillsdale Manor. Mr. Drew told the committee, rest homes were designed to fill the 'grey' area separating the bed care section of a home for the aged and the care sup- plied by a chronic hospital, Persons accommodated would be those who require total bed care and whose physical and mental health was such they were incapable of movement or participation in any activity out of their beds. So called "vegetating" cases of extreme senile degeneracy were excellent examples of this type of resident, Mr. Drew said _ normally, rest homes were built in multi- ples of 30, 60, 90 or 120 beds, and the largest rest home now recommended was the 90-bed level. COMMON SERVICES Although separate buildings were used, certain services may be common to both build- ings. Administration and super- vision were common; heating, laundry, purchasing and medi- cal services may be common if existing facilities would ac- cept the existing load: Kitchen and dining facilites must be separate, Mr. Drew said his depart- ment estimated the over-all cost of building and equipping rest homes was approximately $10,000 a bed, which was lower than normal because it would not be necessary to purchase land nor to furnished and equip other facilities. However, rest homes would be expected to have a larger percentage of registered nurses than a home for the aged, he said. j Three were now unde: con- struction, he said, one. in Wel- land, one in the county of Wel- land and one in Niagara Falls, Jand-| 5.
