Driver Absolved Of Blame At Inquest Into Fatality The coroner's jury investi- gating the Nov. 11 Mrs. Margaret Brown, 83, of 3 Rockcliffe St., last night at- tached no blame to the driver of the auto which struck her. The jury found that Mrs. Rrown died as the result of a massive hemorrhage death of resulting cliffe Street and did not recall pulling from the centre west- bound lane to the curb lane before the accident. When he saw Mrs. Brown she was di- rectly in front of his car. He said he swerved to the right, then felt the impact as she came up and blocked his wind- from impact with a_ motor|©3! vehicle, shield. The inquest revealed the) jerome had not consumed any story of three people attempt- ing to cross King Street East in the rain to attend church and one of them dying because they neglected to walk 100 feet up the street to cross at a crosswalk. Mrs. Brown, her stepdaugh- ter, Mrs. Lucie Chamberlain, and her husband, William Brown, had left home that eve- ning to go across the street to a service at the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Mrs. Chamberlain and her fa- ther had gone ahead with Mrs. Brown following them. Mrs. Chamberlain testified she and her nearly blind father had had stopped on the median but Mrs. Brown "kept right on go- ing after sh got past the first car (westbound) . she ran faster then . . . I thought she was going to make it." Referring to the car in the curb lane which struck her mother Mrs, Chamberlain said, "T don't think he had time to brake before he hit her." When Coroner Dr. F Cuddy asked her about neglect- ing to use the crosswalk, she said "Yes, and-I feel very guil- ty about it,"' She said it was the| 'Three Brooklin Citizens | Foil Bank Fraud Artists first time she could remember not using the crosswalk but it had been raihing at the time and she decided not to go around. DRIVER The driver of the 1961 Austin sports convertible which struck Mrs. Brown was Wayne Jer- ome, 21, of Townline Rd. S., RR 4, Oshawa. He testified under the protection of Canada Evidence Act and told the court that the rain was gushing in sheets as he drove west with his girlfriend along King Street East.

Business Plan For Youth Due To Start Next Fall In the meantime, groundwork will be laid. Junior Achievement is a program in which high school students form companies, manufacture products, sell stock (at one dollar a share), keep books and sell their prod- ucts for a profit and for greater knowledge of the inner workings of industry. "We'll seek sponsorship by every industry in the city," Mr. Fletcher said. A company would lend advice to a Junior Achievement company engaged in the same business, and loan equipment or facilities when needed. The program will also be in the market for 5,000-| 10,000 square feet of office space in which to work WHITBY (Staff)--Senior citi-) jzens in the district are proving | to be highly resistant to the} smooth talking line of bank) fraud artists. | On Wednesday, three elderly) Brooklin residents ranging in| age from 85 to 88 received phone calls from a man who de- scribed himself as the manager of the Brooklin bank.

Bobig, Oshawa agent The new structure was made partly public Monday at a meet- ing of agents in London, Ont. There it was announced that women under 25 may see sub- stantial rate increases, as will single men under 29. Rates will be slightly decreased for mar- ried persons over 25. Although each of the poten- tial victims told the caller what their account number was and how much they had in the bank, they all contacted the Brooklin bank to verify the story. The manager of the bank immedi- ately contacted the Whitby de- tachment of the Ontario Provin- cial Police. Police believe the fraud artists chose a place like Brooklin because it has only one bank. It is believed to be significant that in each case a book salesman visited the home of the potential victim the day before making the call. WARNING Constable Gary Chapman, spokesman for the Whitby de- tachment, warned "It would seem to most of us that this type of fraud is too well known to be successful, however, it is quite possible some of our sen- lior citizens do not keep abreast of the current trends in crime. If you know of anyone you think could possibly become a. victim of this type of fraud try to im- press upon them that at no time will a bank manager ever con- tact them and request they with- draw money for any reason Remind them, too, that their account number and amount of money in the bank is their busi- ness alone and should not he divulged to anyone over the phone." The bank fraud racket has twice been tried on elderly Osh- awa women and in each case contact was made with the authorities which prevented any transaction taking place, sponsoring|~ Oshawa Public Utilities Com- mission is budgeting to spend some $1,877,530 for the year 1968 SMITHS CRASH = which will take it up) 'IN PICKERING The five-year forecast of capi-| PICKERING (Staff) -- The tal expenditure is based on a 1967 population of 80,475 which Smiths collided late Wednes- jis estimated to grow to 94,000) day afternoon. |at the end of the period, says Peter Smith, 22, of 664 Fair- |the annual capital budget re- port Rd.
