It turned out that neither had the mayor of Whitby or Bowmanville, the reeve of Dar- lington township and other area members in good standing. However, the money was in- cluded in the city's 1960 budget. UNFAIR TO MUNICIPALITIES Minister Nickle said yesterday that, "it wouldn't be fair to ap- prove a project when concerned| icipalities haven't seen the project plans." CLOCA secretary William Mar- shall said that the Authority was just that, an Authority, set up under the Minister's aegis. He refused to reveal the plans. Minister Nickle: "That might be the Act, but I'm not going to interpret it that way. I want the co-operation of all municipalities and all members of the Author-| ity." : Mayor Gifford huddled with] secrelary Marshall who once again refused to show the plans. "Then," said the mayor, "you are not going to get anything (money) from us until we see project plans." And the mayor went home to shawa, Planning Minister Nickle told Mayor Lyman A. Gifford in To- ronto Tuesday that his depart- ment (planning and devel t) would furnish Oshawa with con- servation authority plans for the supply the plans. Mr. Nickle refused to approve the authority's 1960 plans. The Central Lake Ontario Con- servation Authority has big plans for. a conservation and recreation area and wants to buy farm lands north of Osh Each municipality belonging to the authority shares costs of schemes sponsored by the Au- thority. $20,000 FROM OSHAWA Early this year, days before the final budget was drawn, Mayor Gifford was notified by the CLOCA that Oshawa's 1960 share would be $20,000. Former- ly, Oshawa had contributed amounts no larger than $2000 for any one year. The increase in this city's share and other municipalities' shares as well, was attributed to the need for additional funds so the Authority could \ purchase the land for their conservation |scheme. | Mayor Gifford complained at O: OBITUARIES MRS.

Rev. W. G. Dickson, minister of Centre Street United Church, conducted the services. Interment was in Oshawa Union Cemetery. The pallbearers were Lou Hay- James Morrison, Ken returned the plans with two changes and that these had re- ceived the approval of the mem- bers of the medical staff, Dr. A. P. Fulton, president of the medical staff, explained that when plans for the new wing were being considered the medical staff had listed its requirements. These had, in turn, received the approval of the board and had been carried out in the plans by the architects. "The plans as now constituted are essentially what ine doctors {want," commented Dr. Fulton. | Sleeping Driver Hits Parked Car A car, its driver asleep at the wheel, struck a parked car on Simcoe street south, Tuesday af- ternoon and bunted it 57 feet along the street and into a pri- vate driveway. A street sign was knocked off in the process. The driver, Ernie F. Battelle, ed a nose bleed and shock. He told police he was driving |south on Simcoe street and mo- | mentarily fell asleep. He said he was awakened by the impact of | the crash. To Study After hearing a lengthy discus-| sion of the qualifications required for entry to its nursing training course, the board of the Oshawa General Hospital Tuesday night| requested its advisory board to look into the matter and report its viewpoint to the board. The question was raised by Keith Ross who pointed to the fact that an applicant for the course at the Oshawa General Hospital might be turned down for lack of qualifications and still be able to enroll in another hos- pital. In the event such an appli- cant received her registered nurse's certificate she would be eligible for employment on the local staff. HIGH STANDARDS FAVORED Mrs. George Telford, director of nursing, pointed out that it was preferable to maintain high jstandards as it had- been found that about 15 per cent of the stu- dents with lesser qualifications dropped out in the first six months because they could not pass examinations. The percent- age of falures was lower when| mathematics was insisted upon. | A three-year option diploma with | a science is now required. Math-| ematics was i | Nurses' Qualifications Mrs. Telford sald the trend seemed to be toward higher standards for admission and that by next year most hospitals would require four option diplo- {mas for admission. In reply to a question Mrs. Tel- ford said the ideal situation would be to have 210 registered nurses on the staff rather than the 170 on staff at present. "Up to now we have been able to fill our classes," commented W. A. Holland, hospital superin- tendent. NURSING REPORT In her report to the board Mrs. Telford said there were eight ap- pointments to the nursing staff in April and five resignations. So far in May there had been three appointments and 13 resignations. Of the latter six were mursing as- sistants and seven registered nurses. The nursing staff at present in- cludes 170 registered nurses, 65 Jursing assistants and 19 order- es. There had been 42 applications for the new nursing class and ap- plicants were still being inter- viewed. 17, of 1231 Wecker drive, suffer- den, Ivan Richards, Morley Th Watts and John Ward.
