Girls Nearly 'Drown After | | The Oshawa Times OSHAWA, ONTARIO, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1960 PAGE NINE Liquor Party SECOND SECTION Two 15-year-old Oshawa girls! ! told an Oshawa court, Monday, how they awoke in the middle of| the night, nearly drowning in Scu-| gog swamp, after passing out at! a drinking party Sept. 9. The girls were appearing as witnesses in a case against Ron- ald Frederick Anderson, 19, of 143 Colborne street east, who pleaded guilty to supplying liquor to minors. He pleaded innocent of assaulting one of the girls, oc- casioning her bodily harm. Both girls said they drank beer, 4] * |wine, whisky and gin at a cot- |tage on Scugog island, after two |men drove them from Oshawa. 3 |The driver of the car had been| OSHAWA SEA RANGERS WIN DUFFERIN DIVISION TROPHY The crew of SRS Crusader, Oshawa, again won the coveted Dufferin Division Trophy in the Girls' Cutters RCSC Regatta recently at HMCS York, Toron- to.

Suggests Comment From The Public A suggestion from Miss Vera Siblock, 634 Drew street, that guests be invited to council meet ings and be allowed to comment on the discussions was sent to Ald. John Brady and his general purpose committee Miss Siblock's suggestions were an attempt, on her part, 'to make the municipal council broad casts of the meeting more inter- esting to the general public, "If the meeting is going well," ghe offered, "and there aren't any comments to be made, the guest should be given an oppor- tunity to express an opinion on past meetings which may help for the future. Member Named To Harbor Board F. C. Malloy, general manager of R, D. Werner Co. (Canada) Ltd., and a member. of the Osh- awa Industrial Commission, is the city's representative on the newly-formed three-man Oshawa Harbor Commission The other two members have been chosen by the federal gov- ernment. They will be named soon. Mayor Lyman Gifford broke a 6-6 deadlock to assure Mr. Mal- loy's appointment Chief objection and reason for Corvair To Have Full 1961 The Chevrolet Corvair -- pre- viously only available as a sedan] or coupe -- will have a full line for 1961. A General Motors of Canada, Limited announced today that station and sports wagons will be added to the Corvair line this Here is the Corvair lineup for +5 Passenger cars -- Club coupes, four-door sedans and a new Lake- wood Station Wagon in the "500" and "700" series, plus the deluxe Monza Sport Coupe and the new Greenbriar Sports Wagons Commercial -- Corvan, Ramp- side and Loadsie trucks. In appearance, the latet Corvair retains its lithe, trical form. However, n nr touches and beautified interior clearly distinguish the models as 1961's. NEW IMPROVEMENTS Among Corvair's new improve- ments: Increased fuel economy, pro- duced by a lower-numerical axle ratio and a new non-gas burning heater. A hot air heater is now offered as optional equipment. Luggage capacity is increased, because the spare tire has been moved from under the hood to the engine compartment. An 11 and two-thirds gallon fuel tank re- places the former 9 and one-six- teenth gallon tank. Although most chassis specifi cations are common throughout the line, structural differences distinguish newcomers from ear- lier body types. The rear-engine mounting has proved extremely suitable to the Lakewood Station Wagon, the Greenbriar Sports Wagon and the Corvan -- the commercial panel van. The absence of a transmis- sion tunnel provides cargo and passenger loading convenience impossible with the conventional small car. 95-INCH WHEELBASE The Greenbriar is a totally new forward control vehicle design- ed on a 95-inch wheelbase. The normal car hood has been elimin- Li ated, A full-width driver's seat is mounted over the front wheels. The body will accommodate two additional seats, positioned con ventionally or facing each other, For ready accessibility, the Greenbriar is equipped with six doors -- one on each side of the driver's compartment -- and dou- ble doors at the curb-side and at the rear. Side and rear doors open a full 180 degrees Nominally rated at 1,600-pound capacity, the Greenbriar's speedy conversion from a commercial to a pleasure vehicle recommends it to varied utility. As a bus, nine passengers and 250 pounds of lug- gage or six passengers and 700 pounds of luggage can be trans- ported. With single three-passen- ger seat, the cargo accommoda- tion totals 175 cubic feet AIRY SUPERSTRUCTURE The Lakewood Station Wagon which, like the Greenbrier, houses its six-cylinder. engine un- der the flat luggage compart: ment floor, is built with the same airy superstructure that chracterizes the larger 1961 Chev- rlet Station Wagons, The vehicle is approximately two inches higher than Corvair sedans and is equipped with four doors and a folding rear seat. With the seat down, the cargo load can reach nearly 6.5 feet in to the 10 cubic feet under the hood. MANUAL CHOKE To aid operating economy, a manual choke replaces the for- mer automatic choke. Recircula- tion of engine cooling air, more precise fuel metering and a lower rear axle ratio also increases gas mileage. At the same time, torque, has been boosted by in-| creasing engine displacement to 1145 cubic inches. Listed among the optional items is a 'perimeter hot air heater" which employs a blending {chamber back of the rear seat| and a blower to propel heat for-| ward through ducts to the pas-| senger compartment. Outlets are built near the floor, just forward of the front seat and beneath the rear seat. {defended the choice by Jaycees To Entertain the deadlock was a plea for more Quebec Group time for discussion of the Indus-| A party of 40 French Canadian trial Commission's choice and, Jaycees from the Province of possibly, a look at other candi-|Quebec will be entertained by dates, members of the Oshawa Junior Ald.

Will Winterize Park Clubhouse Is Painless For some Oshawa residents Thanksgiving will commence this Thursday evening when the last bottle of blood has been stored away in the blood bank. A grateful corps of hard-work- ing Red Cross workers, scores of thankful patients at the hospital and satisfied donors to the tune of over 400, it is hoped, will be able to rest easily on that eve- ning secure in the knowledge of a vital job well done and in the gratitude of an alert and appre- ciative community, declared Rob- ert H Stroud, clinic chairman. The clinic will open its doors from 1.30 to 4.00 and from 6.00 to 9.00 at St. Gregory's Auditor- jum, Simcoe street north, this Thursday. A goal of 400 bottles of blood is considered a 'must" by Red Cross officials who view the com- ing long Thanksgiving holiday weekend with wary eyes. Exper- ience has shown that a sharp rise in automobile accidents which seems to be inevitable on such a weekend always imposes un- usually heavy demands for blood. Appeals in community churches this weekend by the clergy and to members of various service, social, fraternal and community |organizations have climaxed a | clinic. Former donors who gave at least five months ago have been asked to help again and to also assist in recruiting an addi- tional donor.
