"This is entirely a mat- ter between the Board of Educa- tion and the ratepayers," he said, "and I have no desire to become involved in it I could not accept these pupils, and sent them on down to the proper school." In at least half of the cases, however, the children went home, . instead of going down to the North Simcoe Street School. Parents of the children are hold- ing a protest meeting at 8 p.m. this: evening in the North Oshawa School to discuss the situation. There is a strong determination on the part of some of them to resist the board's ruling that their children must attend Grade 7 and | 8 in North Simcoe Street School, partly because of the decision to charge them 75 cents a week for | bus fare to that school, and partly because they claim that there is ample room in the North Oshawa school to accommodate Grades 7 and 8 there. A petition is being circulated voicing their protest and by noon today has been signed by over 'half the parents involved.

PINNER, England (CP)--Fire- man Clement Morris, 44, was killed when he fell from his seat on the fire engine in this Middlesex town. Fhe "fire" turned out to be a hoax. Canadians were 2 listed as prisoners of war. Twenty-seven were listed believed captured. The Reds re- turned all 18 of the former-- the last six Sept. but only 12 of the latter.

Adenauer, With Big Majority Framing His New Government By GEORGE BOULTWOOD BONN, Germany (AP) -- Ger- many's victorious Chancellor Kon- rad Adenauer today began weld- ing a new German government dedicated to 'the '"liberation" of East Germany and close armed alliance with the West. The 77-year-old Christian Demo- crat chief opened talks with politi- cal leaders on the shape' of his new administration after thanking West Germans Monday night for the votes that put him firmly in the saddle for another four years. Speaking to a huge victory rally gathered in the Bonn town square, Adenauer called on his people for a mighty, united effort to release the 18,000,000 East Germans from the "yoke of Soviet oppression and slavery." his new government were expected to be short. He is scheduled to pre- sent plans for the new line-up Thursday to a committee of his party. The new government must be approved by the incomihg Bunde- stag (lower house of parliament), expected to meéet here for the first time Oct. 2. Some sort of coalition seemed inevitable. The big question today was how many parties would be represented. The voting Sunday gave 48 Bundestag seats to the Free Demo- crats and 15 to the German party, both members of Adenauer's gov- ernment bloc since 1949; three to the Centrist party, which hence- forth said it would vote along with The chancellor's consultations onthe chancellor, and 27 to the new Refugee party formed by the mil- lions of fugitives from Communist- occupied Germany. The opposition Socialists garn- ered the other 150 seats. Adenauer certainly again will in- clude the Free Democrats in the government, giving him a safe majority of 97 votes. He hinted to reporters Monday night that he might also continue his previous alliance with the Ger- man party, telling them the elec- tion had shown the people's faith in the old grouping and that would be borne in mind in the building of the new government. There was also speculation Aden- auer might try to bring in the ADENAUR (Continued on Page 2) AJAX (Times-Gazette Staff Reporter)--The waters one of a party of 10 friends Ajax to picnic. | of Lake Ontario off the shores of Ajax claimed the life of a Toronto woman, Miss Joyce Evans, age 30, of 26 Ber- | nard Avenue, Toronto, on Monday afternoon.

The howling winds and lashing rains, worst in a decade, brought at least one death and distress at sea and caused untold damage to apple and grain crops in Nova Scotia's farming belt. Hurricane Carol hit hardest in Nova Scotia, but New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island had the heavy wind and rains. Power and communication breaks were general throughout the eastern provinces. Lt. Cmdr. L. C. Bishop of Hali- fax fell overboard from a yacht and drowned in spite of the heroic res- cue attempt of his wife. Mrs Bishop a life preserver round her waist, jumped into the churning sea after her husband but couldn't reach him. She herself had a tough time reaching shore and was taken to hospital suffering shock. Early today, hours after the full fury had hit the coast after whip- ping up hte eastern seaboard at 45 miles an hour, one fishing craft was still missing and another was reported in sinking condition off the coast. The 75-foot Joyce Marie was re- ported sinking off the western end of the province and a coast guard cutter was racing to her side. to take aboard the crew. Off the south shore, there still was no report on the 57-foot Sister M. Antonio, missing after a tri to the Lahave banks off the coast. On land, the full strength of the hurricane swept the lush apple or- chards of the Annapolis valley and grain fields of the central section of the province, . Apple growers said the winds knocked down Shough apples H 1 'th fill more than 250,000 barrels and sald the damage might be as high as $1,000,000.
