N MAN-MADE FIGHT IN BULL RING A corner of the battlefield in the bullring is covered with brok- en chairs as some 120,000 fans rioted and wrecked the new bull- ring in Guatemala City, Guate- mala, when officials called off a widely advertised bullfight. Al- tbough policemen were warned by Jorge Toreillo, chairman of the International Fair and Ex- position, of which the bullfight was to be a feature, not to inter- fere with the demonstrators, there were some minor skirm- ishes which sent 15 persons to Government hospital nursing their wounds. Local Pantomime Masters Are Home Two wonderfully wacky panto- mime masters are back in their hometown of Oshawa this week af- ter rising to the heights of the entertainment profession and play- ing in the world's greatest theatres i in the British Isles. And after 15 months away, the two, Barry Authors and Howard Switison, agree Hits great to be home." "Contrary to popular opinion and The Canadian Press," says Bowe, and, the towsel-haired blonde, did lay the Palladium after all; " PLAYED PALLADIUM The boys had their first chance at the Palladium, the 'dean of Lon- don's entertainment theatres, in August. Owing to a previous en- gagement, that offer had to be re- fused. At that time' The Canadian Press carried the story. Later though, at the end of Sep- tember, when the Oshawa perform- ers were available, they received another offer from the Palladium when Frankie Laine was the head- liner there and this time they ac- cepted. Apparently The Canadian . Press Bureau got its wires crossed, and the teletype repeated the Au- gust story. As a result, the much travelled entertainers now find themselves receiving sympathetic condolences for having missed an engagement which was not missed. Rivalling their stint at the Pal- ladium was their engagemnt at the Moss Empire theatre which is known for booking only the cream of the crop artists. Also, at the theatre Royal in Dublin, the sec-- ond biggest theatre in the world, the Oshawa pair headlined the bill before capacity crowds of 4,500. FIVE-WEEK VACTION Back in Canada for five weeks, Barry and Howard intend to work as well as visit. They will make several appearances on NBC tele- vision from New York; they don't Sipect to appear on Canadian TV. Thursday, Friday and Saturday of | pos to. this week, the boys are playing in Sudbury. After their Canadian stay, the performers are headed back to England for a two-year tour. Their first engagement will be for 12 weeks at the Empire Theatre in London. Then they go to Plymouth for 12 weeks and back to the Pal- ladium again. The Oshawa pair haven't pol the continent yet, although they have had plenty of offers.' "Show Business in England is too good," they say. Right now the boys are enjoying a few Canadian customs they had almost forgotten. "It's wonderful to be able to go into a restaurant and order a ham- burger and milk shake," Barry said. LITTLE RICH FOOD Actually, the .food available in England is quite-good, the pair said, but very little rich food can be had. There were no pies, for instance. The two remarked on the misty e | rainy weather of England, although pointing out the rain there was much finer than it is here. "We were lucky during last year's winter," - they said. "We were playing in Bournemouth, the Riviera of England, and there wasn't any snow at all." to the shores of the Empire Isle describes the Authors-Swinson car- eer in a nutshell. But like all nut- shells, it's not as simple as it looks. The boys worked long and hard perfecting their routine. While in high school, they did a great deal of amateur work. Then they turned professional and tour- ed the east end of Canada and the northern states with emphasis on such places as Montreal, New York and Buffalo.

Teacher Shortage Worsening NEW LISKEARD (CP) -- David L. Tough, vice-president of the Ontario Secondary School Teach- ers' Federation, said Saturday night that, by 1960, there will be only two high school teachers, for every three needed. Addressing more than 70 north- ern Ontario secondary school teachers attending the federation's District 12 convention he said the Ontario College of Education nor- mally turns out 400 teachers a year, but this year enrolmentis own. Mr. Tough, principal of Forest Hill Collegiate in the Toronto area, said a 10-per-cent increase in the number of teachers graduating from the college is needed and the education department is in a dilemma trying to find ways to increase the enrolment. Find Man With $2,000 In Pockets WINDSOR, Ont. (CP) -- Donald Laporte, 26, Saturday pleaded gu uilty to breaking and entering and theft after he was arrested in a jewelry store at nearby Lasalle with an estimated $3,000 worth of loot 'in his possession.

Gov't Has Soldiers "Hollering" LONDON, Ont. (CP) -- Merle Tingley, London Free Press car- toonist visiting Canadian troops in Korea, said in a cabled letter to his paper Saturday .that service- men call the government's gratuity cancellation a 'raw deal." "The boys are disappointed--a 'raw deal' they hollered," Mr. Tingley wrote. "Some had volun- teered for a year over here mainly to earn enough to marry the gal back home. Others on the bonus to start in college or set up a business."

R. Patterson at the 25th anniversary servicés yesterday of that church. His words characterized the feeling of both services. Mr. Patterson was the first incumbent of the church in Oshawa. Many members of the original congregation, who heard the Rev. H. D. Woodcock of Toronto preach his first sermons for the church in a tent more than 25 years ago, were present to hear him again. "No doubt every member' of this congregation feels proud of their church, because they have con- tributed to the building of it," he said. He reminded the congrega- tion that in the Rev. H. D. Clever- don, present minister of the church, they have a most zealous worker on their behalf. The theme of Rev. Woodcock's sermon was progress in the church. He held that any church which does not move forward is stagnant. He felt the difference was expressed in the two hymns, "Abide with Me" and "Onward Christian Sol- diers". The tendency to cling to the old, known ways and denounce the new was shown in the first hymn, while the second called for progress. He wondered if the Rev. S. Baring Gould, who wrote the Local Church Marks Silver Anniversary march in 1864, ever knew # would amount to anything more than a local hymn. He composed it for his Sunday School to sing as they B. |marched in procession to a picnic. The same cry which arose from the church -- Abide with Me -- when John Wesley attempted his reforms, came again when the the- ory of the evolution of man was for- warded by Darwin. '""There is no conflict between the scientific truth and the doctrine of the church," he said. The choir, led by W. G. Rapley at the organ, sang the beautiful hymn, "Rise, Crowned with Light", by Healey Willan at the morning service and "Lead Me, Lord", by Wesley in the evening. The evening service was taken by the Rev. J. D. Paterson, BA, BD, who was incumbent of the church in 1942-44 before joining the RCAF as a chaplain. He is now rector of Christ Memorial Church in Woodbridge. Lay readings at both services were by George Meads and Thomas Sheppard. The sidesmen, who ushered and collected the offering, were all members of the original congregation. At the morning serv- ice they were Walter Corben, Ar- thur Twilley, James Scarrow and Harry Rigg. In the evening they were George \Farncombe, George Dayman, Fisher and Russell Flutter. BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer Canadian taxpayers told to ex- pect no major tax cutg in next year's federal budget can hope that the country's economic growth will produce some relief. Experts say that despite the probability of another $2,000,000,000 defence budget in 1954 the growth of Canada's national production may permit a few tax "cuts, likely in the personal income and cor- poration tax fields. Finance Minister Abbott how-- ever made clear in a speech last week that no major cuts are likely until 1955. The two main factors influencing tax rates are the government's needs and the gross national prod- uct--value of all goods and ser- vices produced by Canada. STEADY GNP RISE The GNP as it is known among economists has been rising year by year. At the outset this year's GNP was forecast at a record '$2,400,000,000. Now the indications are this will be exceeded possibly by moe than $100,000 And despite some talk of possible recession the experts .are con- vinced Canada's GNP will continue to grow perhaps by as much as $1,000,000,000 next year. They base their convictions on industry's long-range investment plans for developing resources; the continuing heavy demand for goods; the growth of the Cana-- dian market and national income; and other signs of economic strength. Big Production May Offset Tax A sudden shift in world 'events could upset their rosy outlook. But they observe that when the world's most powerful economy the United States hit a mild reces- sion in 1949 Canada rode out the storm with hardly a ripple in her economic expansion. Federal taxes next year likely will be about the same as this year--about $4,400,000,000 TAX RISE UNLIKELY It will require all of that to bal-- ance accounts and it is unlikely the government will take more from the public. The post-war pro- gram of using surpluses to reduce the national debt has been tem-- porarily dropped and Mr. Abbott indicated it likely will not be re- sumed until 1955. Thus if' the GNP rises, the gov- ernment could cut its tax rate slightly and still get the same amount of taxes. Otherwise, gov- ernment experts see no chance of paring the budget. Defence production will reach its peak next year, requiring an- other $2,000,000,000 in defence money and other government costs show no signs of coming down.

Pickering Village | assessment is $677,322 which in- | cludes its one industry -- t Cooper Block Works. Ajax assess- ment is $4,516,770 for 1954 tax pur- poses. Similarly the population of these communities is growing rapidly. | Pickering Township is listed at 11,- 045 as compared with 10,936 for the previous year; Pickering Village is | 924 while Ajax is 5,124. Actually, | the population would be in excess | of the figures given, because the | count was taken by assessors on | their rounds some months ago. MANY SMALL HOMES | In the Township, most of 'the as- | sessment gain has been due to the building of a large number of small homes, many of which are located immediately west of Pick- ering Village and north of high- way No. 2. The township and village have a total of 75 assessment appeals to deal with. These will be heard by Mobile Blood Donor Clinic Coming Here On Wednesday, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., and from 6.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m., the mobile blood donors' clin- ic of the Red Cross Society will be in operation at the Masonic Temple, taking donations of blood from Oshawa donors. The clinic here is being operated under the auspices of the Oshawa Branch of the society, which is making an urgent appeal to the citizens of Oshawa to donate blood which is urgently needed for emergency pur- poses. The blood and blood plasma re- sources of the Canadian Red Cross Society, depleted through their use in' the Korean campaign, are in urgent need of replenishment, and a call hag gone out across Canada for 100,000 bottles of blood to pro- vide reserve for the armed forces and civil defence. Oshawa citizens can register for appointments at the blood donor clinic by telephoning the Red Cross Society at 3-7073. The hours for the clinic have been arranged for afternoon and evening to suit the convenience of Oshawa people, and the Society is hoping that there will be a large response to this appeal for dpnations of blood.

We read of some of the problems of space flight posed by- an authority on the subject. Of course, we realize that many of us have experienced rather confusing and oftimes terrifying bouts with gravity while staggering home in the wee hours after a gala session with the boys, but that was child's play. Merely getting to deep in space, according to our authority, could be a real prob- lem because being weightless, we would be 'marooned in a or or I clues." In simpl we Idn't know up from down.
