2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Setriey, Merch 11, 1961 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN BOARD OF WORKS SHARE TOO SMALL There have been {requent grumblings of late (espec- ally from people like Alderman Finley Dafoe) that 100 little of Oshawa's tax dollar is being spent on Board of Works services, such as road meintenance, new equip ment and constriction, The point was Fe-EM~ phasized this week when Alderman Walter Branch, chaleman of the board, pointed out thet only 22.24 cents out of each tax dollar Was spent on such services in 1960, Here is another remarks able fact of the 22.14 cents, 1.16 cents was paid last year for debenture payments for sewers, side~ walks, pavements, ete, so that actually the city only spent 14.48 cents out of each tax dollar for such BETVICES Here is Mr, Branch's sc» tual break-down 291 cents 1.61 64 4 90 maintenance 5.10 ALDERMAN BRANCH Ca disposal and collection Street clean) snow and jee eontrol FoRgs £ Sewer maintenance .

Allen of Toronto will be the guest speaker Bunday night at a Loyalty Dinner for more than 800 members of 8t, Gregory's Church, Sim» coe street north, The dinner will help to spark the start of a three~ year campaign for the Roman Catholic diocese to raise funds for parochial and higher education purposes St, Gregory's objective will be $218,000, Full details of the long~term campaign and objec tives have not been announced, but it is expected that me of the results will be the eventual establishment f a Roman Catholic high school for the district, likely in Oshawa, Bishop Allen is the auxiliary bishop of the Toronto diocese. ALDERMAN. HAS DOG PROBLEMS Mrs, George Gilroy of 7681 Lakeview avenue gol #0 annoyed at stray dogs the other day she did something about it, She phoned Alderman Albert V, Walker, chairman of the property committee, which is directly responsible for administration of the dog pound, She was quite angry, too ednines were running all over her property and destroying her lawn, They were continually upsetting her garbage pails, and spreading litter Mr. Walker, a kindly man who loves dogs, listened patiently What Mrs, Gilroy proposed was an increase in eily dog licence fees to $26 (instead of the present $10 for a female, or $3 each for a male or spayed female), She also made two other drastic proposals: Owners of strays should he fined $25, instead of the current $2 If owners could not control their dogs, they should be forced to keep them tied up the vear round Mr, Walker then suggested that Mrs, Gilroy make her appeal direct to City Council, in the form of a letter « the letter, read in open Council Monday was a free swinging, hard-hitting epistle, and, remarkably candid, It brought chuckles and smiles to the faces of Mayor Christine Thomas and her fellow councillors, but it alse emphasized most forcefully that the city is again faced with the age-old problem of what to do with city dogs, Should we confine them the year round, or let them roam? It's a hot, touchy subject, likely to spark bitter debate, especially from those citizens who have wells trained, mannerly dogs, Even when the city's dog bylaws goes into effect and all dogs are supposed to be tied up, or under cons trol in May, June and July == there will he plenty of canines roaming around and causing trouble because the two-man dog pound staff simply can't keep up with the situation There were 1701 licenced dogs in Oshawa last year, hut surely the dog population must he mueh larger than this Mrs, Gilroy's annoyance is understandable, and she has helped to bring the problem to the fore again, but her proposed remedy is not a sound one, LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Alderman Cecil Rint is sporting one of those atirac- tive substropical tans, the kind winter travellers pick up in Florida sunshine = that's exactly where he has been on a holiday with Mrs, Bint , . , , Jim Coleman, the renowned sports columnist and race horse authority, was a visitor in Oshawa this week , , , Frederick John Harris, son of Mr, and Mrs, John Edwin Harris of 512 Simcoe is also a member of the dramatic 'club, the Hill News and the concession committee of the pipe club 16 Men Burned In Blast Accident {ried hy the wind from were treated in hospital Friday leased after treatment for first-degree burns caused hy| pheno! blown by the wind from a storage tank They were working outsideicontrol instrument.
