PAGE EIGHT i i THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 7, 1940 RUPERT T. GAY IS FOUND NOT GUILTY DRUNKEN DRIVING 1] (Continued from Page 1) time had elapsed he was examined by Dr. McDonald. The doctor found evidence of intoxication, but nothing very definite. A urinal test was taken and Gay allowed to pro- ceed home. Upon analysis the test showed an alcohol content of 14 parts, which is extremely high. Gay testified that he had been drinking at noon, and at night had Have glasses. All through the he stoutly main- a that his car had been parked on the south side of Richmond Street all evening, and that he had not turned off Bond Street as the officers testified. The accused pleaded not guilty to both charges, but was found guilty on the careless driving count. When the officers appre- hended him on Ontario Street his lady companion was heard to ad- monish him for not driving more carefully. KIN OF OSHAWA WOMANTELLS OF FRENCH DEBACLE (Continued from Page 1) gates and bridge had been sabotag- ed and would not open, so we pulléd alongside a Greek steamer and tied up. In the afternoon Suzanne arriv- ed with Lily and also with her bro. ther, who is 76, and her father, who is 88 and could not walk. We got them on board by carrying them over the Greek ship and then the row started. The Germans came over in waves. They sank everything in the harbor including the ship to which we were moored. All the win- dows, ports and skylights in our ship were broken, the cots blown flat and the ship badly shaken. During this ' bombing I spent my time reciting nursery rhymes to keep iLly in good trim. It was only by the grace of God that we are alive. When it got a bit quiet I went on deck and the chief ordered me to shut the job down and abandon ship and make for the south as best we could. One or two brave men helped me with the family. We had to carry them over a sinking chip to shore. When we got ashore what a scene of desolation--every- thing that would burn was bum- ing. Not a soul in sight except the dead, the burned and wounded. The other hospital ship had been sunk. What to do with the family I did not know. We stole a motor car in which there was just room for Su- manne, Lily, mother and father and the fourth engineer, who drove them to St. Nicholas, their home. I could not move with Suzanne's father for we had to nearly carry him between two of us, Then we got a refugee train to Rouen and, after trying all day Wednesday to get away from Rouen, we heard on Thursday that our ship was still afloat and that there - were still some military men at Dieppe. The third engineer and myself went back to try and save the ship. We went on board on Friday and ex- amined her but it was not to be for they came over Friday afternoon and bombed us again. This time they sank her. After that I got the military police to go to St. Nich- olas to get Suzanne and Lily but bey were gone. Where? No one a. arranged to leave Dieppe by troop train (cattle trucks) Satur- day night. Saturday afternoon they paid us another visit and set the town ablaze. When we left there was no electricity, no water, no gas and many large fires were burning. We eventually got back to England and I had to wait for news from Suzanne to get an address to write to. About a week ago I received three letters, the last of which was dated June 68 with an address at Crasville 1g Malet, about 20 miles north of Rouen. I sent a wire at once and wrote a letter. The wire may have arrived but the letter, no, for the Germans were there too soon. That is the last news I have had to date. How or where they are, 10 Cubic F. eet STORE SIZE REAL BUY Don Christian ELECTRIC 38-40 Simcoe St. N, Phone 34-744 I do not know. I can only hope and pray that my little one is safe. When I arrived home at Brighton I learned that mother had been laid to rest. I am glad for I would rather see her empty bed than see her suffer as I have the past year. They tell me she said, "I want to 80 home", Please God when the end of the chapter comes for each and all of us, we shall go home to her. Now I could go on writing of these troubles indefinitely--of our own personal worries and our uni- versal worries--but to what end? We must put these things behind us and put every ounce of strength into saving ourselves and the world. We stand alone. If only the US.A. would come to our aid. Still the battle of France is not the end and what the end will be we don't know. We must have faith and we shall win. I hope you are all well Give my love to all and pray for us. Your loving brother, WALTER FENNER., SEA GADET WORK ENABLES OSHAWA BOYS TO ADVANCE (Continued from Page 1) who had recently joined the Royal Canadian Navy to step up to classes of men who had enlisted many months previous to the Oshawa boys. Pointing out the enthusiasm and keen interest with which the boys carry out their See Cadet work, the speaker pointed out that an average of seventy boys in a year are handl- ed and in the duration of ten years, the Oshawa Sea Cadets have had the very splendid attendance record of 97 per cent. Eleven of the boys have been in the corps for seven years and seventeen have been in for eight years and not one of these members has ever been inside the Juvenile Court. In' the period of ten years, seven members of the Oshawa Sea Cadets have joined the navy or merchant service, thirteen have joined the Air Force and thirty-one nave joined the army while at present, another thirty-five are awaiting cell for the navy and merchant service, The speaker went on to outline the other phases of training received by the Sea Cadets, such as lectures on good citizenship, cleanliness of tongue and actions, socizl diseases, and other topics about which boys seek to know. Obtained Many Honors Pointing out some of the out- standing successes enjoyed in re- cent years by the Oshawa Sea Ca- dets, the speaker listed the winning of the C.N.E. boat race, for three years in succession, the Canadian shooting competition championship, in which year the Oshawa Sea Ca- dets finished 25th out of 27,000 groups throughout the British Em- pire, besides leading all Canada. The Oshawa Corps has held the at- tendemce record for eight. years and have also won premier honors in three different band competitions. On their own behalf, they have raised money and purchased new band equipment, drums, trumpets, ete. During the history of the corps, the Oshawa Sea Cadets have par- ticiperied in 371 parades, without ever asking for a single cent for ser- vices and they have never refused any organization's request for as- sistance, if at all possible to comply. Expressed Thanks The thanks and appreciation of the members, many of whom were surprised at the magnitude of the work being accomplished by the Sea Cadets, was expressed by Kiwanian Howard Kerr. Kiwanian Bill Brown- lee spoke briefly, complimenting the Sees Cadets on the excellent condi- tion in which they have left the camp, at the conclusion of their stay there.

Conditions at the Lake The question of much needed sani tary requirements at the beach was discussed at some length but while the need was admitted no member ,0f Council made a motion to insti- tute action. The beach is being visited by hundreds of people each week, but sanitary conveniences are not available since the waterworks pumping station was closed to the public on account of the war. More Enlisted Council received from the Gazette and Chronicle a further list of men from Whitby who have joined the colors. The covering letter advised that the names of those joining the second Ontario Regiment ' (in- fantry) will be given to Council as soon as they are released by the commanding officer. ] n Robert | | has been po: Peter | Bob Mc- |, Lelland, 80; Bill Ross, 69; Bob Ser- Fred Hen- | Douglas Liss, Alexander David- | | that have yet been made in |G Church Welcomes Sisters and Pupils of St. Hilda's School of Whitby, England, On Sunday On Sunday morning last the Sis- ters and scholars of the School of St. Hilda, until evacuated to Can- ada located at Whitby, Yorkshire, England, attended the services at All Saints' Church.

"It is our wish," said the rector, "That you may find here a haven of happiness where your work may be carried onu successful- ly. You will find, I know, a special place in all our hearts and all our resources are yours to make you feel at home and to further your work. May God bless us all and by your presence show us still more clearly what this war means and reveal to us further channels of service by which we may all be used to bring the struggle to a victorious con- clusion."

NAVAL MINISTER 10 SEEK KINGSTON BY-ELECTION SEAT Notifies Liberal Association He Will Accept Nomination Kingston, Aug. 7.--Hon. Angus Macdonald, Minister of National Defense for Naval Affairs, has noti- fied James Halliday, president of the Kingston-Portsmouth Liberal Association, he was pleased to ac- cept the nomination for Kingston and asked the nomination meeting be postponed until Friday evening, Aug. 9. Mr. Macdonald stated that if the nomination meeting was postponed he would come to the city on Fri- | day and would remain over until al nomina'ions on Mon- 12 and thus have an to meet the Kingston the offici day, Aug. opportunity | people. Mr. Halliday seid he knew the people would be glad to comply with the wishes of Mr. Macdonald | and the nomination meeting, which Tuesday evening, tponed. Asked if that meant Mr, Mac- would face a contest if op- ion developed, "Mr. Halliday definitely it did. "Mr. Mac- donald," said Mr. Halliday, "stated some weeks ago he would be glad to represent Kingston, but he gid not feel he could leave the import- ant war job he head taken on to fight an election campaign which might take him away from his of- fice for a month or more. "As no candidate has ben nom- inated to oppose Mr. Macdonald, I was planned for, | am hoping he will bé given an ac- clamation acclamation If he is not given an by the citizens of Kingston the campaign will be a short one, and Mr. Macdonald will not have to be away from his war work for any long period." TRAINING PERIOD FOR AIRMEN GUT T0 SPEED PROGRAM (Continued from Page 1) ed out by the end of 1940 would be just about double the number anti- cipated when the plan was drafted last December. To date no figures herve been given on the number of | graduates. With the speedup in curriculum and in schools has come a speedup in pupils from overseas. The first contingent--twenty-two strong--ar- rived from Great Britain last week | and reported to the Manning Depot in Toronto. From now on at regular intervals «ur pupils will arrive from Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand. The supervisory board, which ap- proved the most radical changes the | commonwealth Air Training Plan, is presided over by Air Minister C. Power and on it sit the repre- sentatives of Great Britain, Aus- tralia and New Zealand, as well as senior Canadian air officials. The changes madz in the tiie for training airmen will not siglct the classes now under way, but gill be introduced as new recruits enter the schools. Pilots lose a week in each of the three stages--elemens tary, intermediate and advanced. Instead of twenty-cight weeks, it will now take twenty-five weeks to graduate a pilot in Canada. The pruning will take off a num- ber of the "extras" provided in the course as at first laid out. There will be no curtailment in essential flying instructions; no reducing of the safety factor, officials seid. The most drastic cut will be in the length of course for the wire- less operators who are also air gun- ners. The total course is now twénty-four weeks, but. only the wireless end is being shortened. This will take eighteen weeks in- stead of twenty-four. It is fee that the operators can learn by experi- ence some of the points that had been included before, The temporary shertage in train- ing craft is being overcome by the resumption of deliveries to Canada from the United Kingdom of twin- engine trainers, together with ar- rangements made in the United States. In addition to the elementary schools now in operation at Leth- bridge, Prince Albert, Windsor, Vancouver, Malton, Fort Willicum, and Windsor Mills, new schools are being opened this summer at St, Catharines, Hamilton, Cap de la Madeleine, Goderich, Saint Eugene and High River.

To meet this problem a ed to delay the re-opening of pri- mary schools until 'September 15 | and of secondary schools until Oc- tober 1, thereby making available for ferm help thousands of teen~ aged boys. | An organization has been estab- | lished to enlist these young people in this patriotic effort.

SEVEN DAYS FOR DRUNKEN DRIVER (Continued from Page 1) "very drunk." In addition to the jail sentence, Magistrate Ebbs ordered that the accused's license be suspended for a three month period. Lower Bail Refused Roy Fischer, Toronto, was re- manded one more week on bail of $2,000 when he appeared before Magistrate F. S. Ebbs on a charge of robbery with violence. Defense counsel Mannis Frankel renewed his plea of last week that bail be reduced but Magistrate Ebbs ruled that $2,000 was not exorbitant on the charge. Crown Attorney Allin F. Annis asked for one week's ad- Jjournment. "In view of the fact that the Crown is asking for this adjourn- ment I am asking that bail be re- duced to a reasonable amount," stated defense counsel. "This is a very serious charge. I don't think $2,000 is out of the way," observed Magistrate Ebbs. Defense counsel pointed out that Fischer had been in custody for two weeks and declared that "the accused is entitled to some consid- eration."
