"Most people on the platform tonight were present when ,this school was opened in February, 1958," Trustee F. R. Britten said in introducing the guests on the platform. Mrs. Gertrude Colpus, he said, was the notable absentee. Dr. C. M. Elliott, who official- ly opened the addition, said that no one could come to the open- ing of the new wing without a considerable twinge of sadness. "I would like to add my re- spects to the many that have been spoken," he said. The school was named to honor Mrs. Colpus and now it would rightly become a memorial te her, he said. 8. G. Saywell, chairman of the Oshawa Board of Education, wel- comed the guests to thé opening. THREE TRUSTEES HONORED There were now three schools in the city named for trustees who between them had given 80 years service to the citizens of Oshawa, he said. Those trustees were the late Mrs., Colpus, the late Dr. F. J. Donevan and the late Arthur Lov "It is our prvilege to have Mrs. * daughter, Miss C her return we ge mission wi Fn to be with us to- night," Mr. Saywell said. Ald. A. Hayward Murdoch, re- presenting Mayor Lyman A. Gif- ford, brought greetings from the «ity. He congratulated the board on the fact that no school in the city was on the shift system and that the six-room addition would help to accommodate the city's chil- dren and particularly the children of new Canadians. YEACHERS INTRODUCED W. J. MacDonald, inspector of public schools, introduced the 17| members of the teaching staff of the Gertrude Colpus School and the two custodians to the guests. He preceded the introduction with a short outline of the school's growth from a six- teacher organization operating on shift basis in the Duke of edinburgh School in 1957 to the present time. A choir of Grade 7 and 8 boys C:era Club R- ults Are ~ mounced The members of Oshawa Cam- era Club were given the results of the first "You be the Judge" circuit of the season at their semi-monthly meeting. . Those who had submitted entries were, of course, most interested in the ratings but the slides were in- teresting to all and were a fine display of the club work. Judged the best pictorial slide was "Tied up" made by Bob Stroud. This was a wide angle shot of an ocean-gcing liner tied wp at the new St. Lawrence Sea- way port at Toronto. Chosen sec- ond was Ted Tozer's slide "Old Mill," a sprawling old mill and fts race-way, a picture subject fast becoming harder and harder fo find. Placing first in the garden flowers and still life division was "Honey suckle" 'also made by Mr. Tozer. The second member of the Tozer picture-taking team, Mrs. Tozer, tied with Fred Mil- ler for second place with her "Portulaca." Mr. Miller's slide was "Bouquet," an ar of Zinnias in a white vase. Top slide for portraiture was a beautiful study made by Fred Miller of his best model, his small daughter "Elizabeth." Mr. and girls sang the Welsh folk song, '"'Ohce to every Man and Nation". Trustee G. K. Drynan, intro- duced the guest speaker, Dr. El- liott, and after the official open- ing, there was what Mr. Saywell called "the ceremcny of the pic- tures." PICTURES PRESENTED Trustee H. B. Armstrong, pre- sented a photograph of the school to the principal, Mr. G. W. Reddick. Trustee G. Fletcher, vice chairman of the Board, pre- sented a photograph of the school intended for the late Mrs. Colpus to her daughter, Miss Constance Colpus. Miss Colpus presented the pic- tuer together with one of her mother to L. Knorowski, a repre- sentative of the Oshawa and Dis- trict Historical Society. Miss Colpus said her mother was one of the board members who was against naming schools for trustees when it was first pro- posed. "When this schoo! was named for mother, she was . . . flabber- gasted." "She enjoyed many happy hours in this school," Miss Col- pus said.

"We hope the true Christmas spirit has gripped the hearts of Oshawa residents and that it will find its highest expression in giving--giving blood this Thurs- day," Mr. Stroud said. For the busy shopper a spec- ial slack-period afternoon "mat- inee" has been reserved for the last-minute volunteer who can drop in to the clinic and be fair- ly certain that it will take barely a half hour to give blood. Regu- lar clinic hours are from 1:30 to 4, and from 6 to 9 p.m. Any adult between the ages of 18 and 65, in good health, can give blood without any danger of unpleasant after affects. Per- sons who have had malaria or jaundice recently will be advised to not donate. Special technicians whose skill and gentleness has been demonstrated will be on duty this Thursday.

Brantford taxi driver Robert Catherwood said he drove a man to Simcoe. The man entered Peachey hardware store, headed for the till and tried to take the timoney, police said. Constable Pat Lindsay was making the arrest when the man scuffled with him so violently a call was sent for reinforcements.

There were people, who said that schools should concentrate on physical education; that schools should turn out well- adjusted, socially acceptable men and women who would get on well with people; that educa- tion should be centred round reli- gion; that religion should be the responsibility of the church and home; that schoois should pro- vide education ip morals and character, in courage, ance and fair play. UNFAIR ASSUMPTION All these goals should be in- cluded, Dr. Elliott said, but to say that schools alone were re- sponsible for them was unfair. "Surely the home and church and other community organiza- tions have some responsibilities -|lin these fields," Dr. Elliott said. He said that if a school were to make any one of the goals as its prime object, it was neglect- ing to do what it was there to do, the stretching and training of minds to reason and deal with ideas. In a school, he said, minds should be taxed and worked harder than in any other place. There were a lot of facts that need to be known but they were remembered only as long as they were needed. IDEAS IMPORTANT Ultimately it was not facts that were important but ideas, Dr. Elliott said. Not the "when" and the "where" and the "how" but the "why." "Parents don't be impatient with the "whys." Those are the most important ques- tions," he added. "That gives you my impres- sion of many quiz programs too," he went on. Dr. Elliott said that too much attention had been paid to mak- ing education attractive by smoothing the path. He told the parents in the audience that they were their children's most important teach- ers, and that a child should bring {stable Lindsay and Nor folk/a much learning from its home| County jail guard George Irving.

Hall Opened The United Steelworkers America, Tuesday night, official- ly opened their mew offices at 115 Albert street. The property consists of a small office build- ing and an assembly hall, along with a parking lot for about 60 cars, 'which is jointly owned by Local 1500 and Local 1817. The construction work was Whitby. The activities of the United Steelworkers of America will now be completely conduct- ed from these new quarters. NO SHORT ROUTE Dr, Elliott said there was no royal read to learning, and chil- dren should be taught this at home as well as in school. "We adults get /flabby mental- ly. We are immersed in the rou- tine things of life in social liv- ing and business problems." Dr. Elliott looked at the mem- bers of the audience.

They changed their pleas in juvenile court this week. Mr. Bothwell told the court he parked his car at Bowmanville Memorial Arena, Nov. 23, to at- tend a hockey practice. He arrived at the arena about 7.05 p.m. aiid when he returned at 8.30 p.m. it was missing. He said it is equipped with an ig- nition system that may be locked or used without a key. He could not remember' whether or not the ignition was left in the "on" position, but stated the doors were noi ivcned.

Approx- imately two-tenths of a mile south of the car, he noticed three youths hitch-hiking. According to PC Carr, he was travelling in the opposite direc- tion to which the car was facing. so proceeded down the highway a short distance before turning around to check the vehicle. A check with the detachment of- fice revealed the car had been stolen from Bowmanville, He said he found a pipe wrench and bar in the back seat and in the glove compartment found a shotgun and rifle shells. The motor was hot as the tempera- ture gauge showed more than normal and the car had run out of gas. "I couldn't find the three boys, but after driving around the side streets for about half an hour, I saw them still hitch-hiking. When I saw them, I noticed mad on their boots. When I picked them up and advised them I was going to hold them in connection with a stolen car, one asked what stolen car was I talking about. "I called the office for another cruiser so I could get them sep- arated before they could get to- gether on a story.
