2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, September 9, 1961 pe GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN FITTING TRIBUTE TO "COL. SAM" Oshawa won't soon forget the 90th birthday party of "Col. Sam" (Col. Robert Samuel McLaughlin, the man whose industry and drive made automobile history and the existence of Oshawa possible). There were many unforgettable scenes on this un- forgettable occasion, especially the picture of the guest of honor emerging from the grounds of his Parkwood estate on to Simcoe street at the wheel of a red Mc- Laughlin - Buick of 1908 vintage to the plaudits and cheers of hundreds of school children. These were mostly the little people who gathered along the route on the way to the tumultuous band shell demonstration where more than 5,000 were on hand (where many of the Big People were. gathered in their best finery) -- it was a fitting tribute to a man whose popularity extends far beyond Oshawa to royal palaces. | | WEATHER OFFICE 'WEATHER FORECAST Sunny And Hot Weekend Story and industrialists' estates, to distant points of the earth, Did you see Mayor Christine Thomas and her hus- band T. D. "Tommy" Thomas enroute to the social hour at the Armories in a long, sleek, black Cadillac (court- esy of GM)? The press (including the Metropolitan variety) was out in force to record this event, but the quality of the writing was drab, disappointing for such a dramatic occasion, perhaps because the big superlatives have been fittingly used so many time before, so expertly by so many writers assigned to chronicle the doings of "Col. Sam," a truly great man who never did lose the common touch. SWEEPSTAKES SHOULD BE LEGALIZED Too bad our City Council, by 9-2 rejected a Peel County resolution asking the senior governments to legalize a national hospital sweepstakes (under juris- diction and control of the chartered banks of Canada). Only two aldermen, Bint and Walker, had enough gumption to stand up and support this item which was, incidentally, endorsed at the recent Ontario Municipal Convention in Windsor after one speaker told the dele- gates to "stop being hypocrites." Alderman Walker point- ed out quite rightly that thousands of sweepstake dollars leave this City each year for overseas sources when they should be re- maining here. The tragedy of the situation is that while the sale of sweepstake tickets is illegal thousands are sold here annually; but the sale of raffle and car lot= tery tickets is not permit- ted because it too is illegal. This latter restriction especially works a severe hardship on such organiza- tions as service clubs whose worthy welfare pro- ALDERMAN BINT grams are thus seriously crimped by a shortage of badly-needed dollars. What must gall Jocal service club members is that lottery and car raffle tickefs are sold openly in such places as Bowmanville -- two groups were selling on the main streets Tuesday -- and surreptitiously in Osh- awa, the returns for which go to the benefit of outside clubs. This inconsistency, no doubt, is the fault of the At- torney-General's Department which refuses to enforce the law along these lines, much to the confusion and annoyance of the local citizenry. How many of these Oshawa Councillors who re- jected the proposal buy sweepstake tickets? Our guess is that the great majority do, yet they are afraid to support Canadian sweepstakes. They are not op- posed to sweepstakes in principle, just fearful of being associated with them publicly. SOCCER REPLACES BULL-FIGHTING Oshawa Lawyer Terence V. Kelly -- the very ex- cellent after-dinner speaker and raconteur -- reports that soccer has now replaced bull-fighting as the nat- ional sport of Spain. Mr. Kelly (who happens to be the vice-president of the Ontario Football Association and chairman of the discipline committee of the Eastern Canada Pro Soccer League) may be a bit biased, but he got his in- formation from an authoritative source -- Emelio Ost- reicher, manager of the Real Madrid soccer team, winners of the European Cup for six consecutive years and referred to by the experts as "The greatest soccer team ever assembled." Mr, Kelly met Mr. Ostreicher in Vancouver recently after Reals demonstrated some of the finer points of the game to Toronto City, 4-1, before 25,000 (for which Reals were paid $45,000). Why has soccer replaced bull-fighting in Spain as the top sports attraction? "Mainly because its an international sport, "Mr, Kelly quotes Ostreicher as saying "Soccer is drawing better than bull-fighting and some games attract 150,000. Work has started on a new stadium in Madrid, where Reals will play, to seat 200,000." As an indication of the discipline on this super- team, Ostreicher pointed out that the players are liable to a fine of 100 pesetas (about $2) per minute for each minute late at meal-time, practice and game-time, but not a single fine has been assessed for this demeanor in 10 years. ON BEHALF OF THE OSHAWA LITTLE THEATRE President Reg. Lancaster is beating the drums these days on behalf of the Oshawa Little Theatre member- ship drive. The OLT has an enrollment of 600, but Reg. says that this is not good enough and that the group would like to attract "a wider cross-section of the community," especially members of ethnic groups who love the theatre. An important meeting will be held Monday night at the YWCA by the board of directors and the ticket-sellers. HOT-WEATHER NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Lyman Gifford, Oshawa's ex-mayor, returned re- "cently from Puerto Rica on a cattle-selling trip . . . Frank McCallum, another ex-mayor, is busy these days as chairman of the National Employment Committee . , . Some of the City's volunteer charity workers' (associated with such groups as churches) think the Provincial government is digging too deep on the new 3 percent sales tax bite when it insists that they keep a separate set of tax books. They point out that their profits go to assist the needy and that they should be encouraged in this work, not discouraged . . . John E. Harris, former owner-operator of the Oshawa Merchants' Baseball team, is one of the City's keenest baseball fans -- he was in New York last weekend fo see his favorite Yankees squelch the Detroit Tigers.

She gave $25,000 to a young man "to complete a musical education" and buy a sports car. She gave $17,000 to another young man to organize a band and buy a $7,000 car. She gave $1,000 to a third young man fo help finance his | college education. Police said Miss Neumann told them the rest of the money went into accounts at various Chicago banks.
