2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, May 17, 1960 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN ALD. BRADY AND RACING PIGEONS z John Brady, the sports - loving alderman may soon become known as the true friend and champion of Oshawa's rac- ing pigeon set. When the bleak future of the 50-year-old Oshawa Racing Pigeon Club came up for discussion recently i at Council, Alderman B Brady's voice rang out clear and loud like a char- jon bell in defence of the ORPC (at a time when that organization needed a friend). The club faces per- manent closure if the city does not modify an existing zoning bylaw (No. 3415, section 21) that prohibits ALDERMAN BRADY animals (except those us- ually classified as "household pets") in residential district. Said Alderman Brady, like a true champion of a minority group about to be legislated out of existance: "I would urgently ask the planning board to give this proposed amendment ever consideration--there are many people who enjoy this sport, and they deserve consideration." He was the lone speaker. The amendement was requested by Jack H. Askew., president of the club who has been associated with the organization for 45 years. Mr. Askew reiterated what President R. Etherden of the Canadian Racing Pigeon Union, Inc told this column here several weeks ago: The common variety of pigeon is giving a bad name to racing pigeons--the latter group is composed of pedigreed birds, mostly imported from Britain, U.S, and Belgium, all of whom are registered with the CRPU. All are reportedly well behaved. Said Mr. Askew: "These common pigeons hang around public build- ings, (like the post office and City Hall) and leave con- siderable dirt. They also have a great nuisance value in residential districts, "We look after our racing pigeons. We only allow them out for exercise. They're well-behaved and dis- ciplined--otherwise they would be unsuitable for rac- ing. When we summon them, they return to the lofts immediately. Also, our lofts are kept immaculately clean because racing pigeons are ineffective in any other kind of loft. They almost require the care of a well-bred horse. Mr. Askew says the Oshawa bylaw--it permits owners previously to 1957 to continue operation--is ruinous to the ORPC because it discourages new. and younger memberships. He says every city in Canada has racing pigeon clubs and that Windsor recently rescinded its bylaw curb on racing pigeons. "We are not in favor of every Tom, Dick and Harry 'owning pigeons, but we think the sport can be control- led in an organization like ours." he said. "If war breaks out the government will come run- ning to us again for our best pigeons, as they did in the last war," said Mr. Askew. "Did you know that we had no less than nine Second World War vets in my loft until recently? All served on the East Coast with the RCAF. Canada will need this service again, if war breaks out. We should give this matter some thought." IN THE LAND OF THE EPICURES Special Memo To Oshawa Epicures: We returned to the Imperial Room of the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, last week for our second visit within a month. This time our attention was attracted by the Chef's Suggestion on the Thursday noontime luncheon menu. "It's the hot dish on the cold luncheon -- beef and mushroom pie," explained a most polite and precise waiter, the kind one finds in droves around the Imperial Room. This dish didn't have a fancy French name (like 80 many entrees in famous dining rooms) but it was quite a culinary achievement -- a skillful blend of well-cooked beef and mushrooms with red pepper and spices under the protective canopy of a soft, flaky pie crust, the kind that wins international cooking prizes. The French fried potatoes were crisp, golden brown and highly palatable. We came away in a happy frame of mind. We also met Mr. Charles "Chuck" Burton, the pleasant-mannered manager of food and beverages, who conducted us on a tour of the kitchens, Said Mr, Burton: The hotel could serve 10,000 meals in a meal period (about three hours) if necessary. One million eggs and 2,000 head of cattle are used annually. One thousand pounds of flour is needed daily for bread and rolls alone. Beef, and other meats, are aged three weeks before delivery to the hotel -- such items are rarely frozen, because freezing ages. Instead they are kept in storage at 35 to 40 degrees. Says a notice on the wine menu: "The Act of Eating' becomes the 'Art of Dinng' when accompanied by wine and liqueurs." In passing through the wine storage compartments we noticed some of these prices: Chateau Lynch-Bages Wine (Pauillac) 1955, magnum $13.40; Chateau d'Yquem Wine (Cruse and Fils) 1947, $16.50, Extra Dry Champagne (G. H. Mumm), magnum $27.50; Pol Rogers (1952), $14.75. YOU'RE RIGHT--THAT WAS MAT BUSBY Want to meet celebrities? Then stand in front of the Hotel Genosha. You're almost sure to click--Ilike those two visitors did last Friday, They were part of a group of 40 touring British farmers who stopped off for a Genosha luncheon be- fore visiting GM. ' They looked like a well-groomed and well-heeled crowd (with their expensive tweeds and cameras, their casual, detached manner). Like all farmers they also looked disgustingly healthy. y As they poured on to King street and into a size- able crowd alongside two parked buses (including members of the Heart of Midlothian football team) the , dialogue between the two visitors went something like this: 1st. Farmer: 1 say, Reggie old boy--isn't that old Busby over there? Busby? Busby? You don't mean-- That's right -- Matthew Busby, the distinguished soccer personality. Good heavens, wake up man. The Manchester United chap. Wasn't it at Munich the plane crashed and he almost got wiped out? Why you must be daft. What would Busby be doing out in a place like this. This isn't Manchester you know. This is Oshawa--the home of Chevrolets. I'll swear I saw him. , , . By George, Y 2nd. Farmer: 1st. Farmer: 2nd. Farmer: 1st.

Armand Dumas (L -- Ville neuve) touched off the wrangle when he said that problems of the uranium mining towns had been made difficult by the gov- ernment's inability to find ura- nium markets, Trade Minister Churchill jumped to his feet and said Mr. Dumas was going far beyond the terms of reference laid down for the committee. Mr. Dumas said he understood Mr. Churchill's annoyance be- cause Elliot Lake was a "thorn in the side' of the government. Arnold Pters (CCF -- Timis- kaming) said both the previous Liberal government and the pres- ent Conservative government were to blame. The Liberal gov- ernment showed too little regard for the future of the new mining communities when it signed con- tracts with the United States for only a five-year period, with in- sufficient guarantee for the fu- ture. Q 1 Mich said he could Speaker Roland Mich inter- rupted opposition members re- peatedly, saying that the cases of Elliot Lake and Bancroft, Ont., and Uranium City, Sask., could be studied in the committee, if the committee itself agreed, but they shouldn't be discussed in the House at this stage, But members still managed to find nothing in the resolution au- thorizing the committee to deal with the specific problems of Flliot Lake and other uranium- mining towns. Discussion of the policies of the government agen- cies involved should be deferred until the House committee of 20 members was established.
