2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, September 11, 1961 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN THE NEED FOR SWIMMING POOLS Statistics released this week by the City property committee on attendance at the two public swimming pools, the only two in a city of 60,000, stress one point-- the urgent need for more public pools. The controversial new $55,000 civic pool in Rotary Park (the one that wouldn't hold water until mid-July, . some 10 months after it was completed) drew 15,464 patrons in seven weeks -- the Somerset pool drew 24,- 905 in nine weeks. "These figures represent peak capacity loads for each pool, especially when you include swimming time lost by inclement weather," said a CRA spokesman, City councillors contacted appear confident that the Rotary pool will hold water from herein despite past performance. It is to be hoped that they are right as the Permacon Co. Ltd. (the firm that built the pool) has no legal responsibility for repairs from this date on. There is also the question of renewing the one-year lease on the Somerset pool (rented for the year from Ralph Jones and Allan Banfield, who are anxious to sell it for something in the neighborhood of $35,000, plus some adjoining land that would be ideal for park pur- poses). Is Papal By EUGENE LEVIN CASTEL GANDOLFO (AP)-- : | Pope John XXIII, in a dramatic i |appeal recalling papal messages : lon the eves of two world wars, { {urged the world's rulers to ne- gotiate to avert a third global disaster. In one of his most stirring messages since he became Pope almost three years ago, the pon- tiff of the Roman Catholic 7 |Church Sunday night asked "the rulers of nations to face squar- ely the tremendous responsibil 1 |ities they bear." He said they must not 'fall victims to false and deceiving provocations" and added: "It is truly upon wise men that the issue depends: That force shall not prevail, but right, through free and sincere nego- | |tiations; that truth and justice i [shall be vindicated by safe-| « | guarding the essential liberties| { |and the insuppressible values of | every nation and of every hu- man person." DOESN'T NAME City council, undoubtedly weary of swimming pool problems, will likely (with customary indecision) shelve such decisions until next Summer until the citizenry starts to shout out again.

Those words, Pope John said, recalled exhortations by Pope Pius X, later St. Pius X, in 1914, and by Pope Pius XII on Aug. 24, 1939, a week before the Sec- ond World War started. Pope John's recollection of the| two previous papal pleas, both of which failed to avert war, lent intensity and drama to his message. But the pope did not| yy speak with despair. He said world events had '"'the too irresponsible and tragically deplorable appearance' for him to present "a sacred warning to all our children . . . and even to unbelievers."

The four couples (enroute home from a week-long bi-annual Canada Life convention at Manor Richelieu) then made the Montreal trip on a special emergency train provided for 450 delegates and their wives. The four are Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Fairbrother, Jr, and Mr. and Mrs. Allen B. Johnston, of Oshawa; Mr. and Mrs. Frederick C. Hutton, Bowmanville, and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Godley, Port Perry. MAJORETTES NEED A SPONSOR Dear Mr. Gearin: Would like to draw your attention to a group of girls who need someone to say a word for them. They are the Majorettes from the Irene Harvey's School who have competed individually and in fancy rill corps in Hamilton, Kitchener, Peterborough and 1e CINE. The younger. girls, 11 and under, gained second place at Peterborough and in the International contest at the CNE -- these "Bluettes" were only formed into a drill corps this year. The 11-14-year-old, The Tar- tanettes" gained third place on both occasions, in indi- vidual contests and solo work. The girls, up to 17, have an excellent record, have many trophies and medals to their credit. Ruth De- boski won first place in the intermediate class at the CNE. The point I have to make is this -- the majority of the teams in competition against them are sponsored (Hamilton, Peterborough, Kitchener; even Cobourg and Colborne have sponsored drill corps, not to mention the Y many excellent teams from the U.S.) These sponsored teams not only get financial sup- port of the community behind them, but the moral sup- port of the citizens, a tremendous asset in competition. Surely Oshawa could back a group like this? The talent is obviously there. The girls work hard and are full of enthusiasm. These girls are always ready to help other organ- izations by providing free entertainment. Already this year they have turned out for the Kinsmen, Kiwanians, the Oshawa Tennis Club and the Bowmafville Lions. Now I feel they deserve a pat on the back and a helping hand. Yours truly, Jean Newell. PAMPHLETS IN PRAISE OF OSHAWA The Oshawa C of C is again singing the praises of our fair City, this time with two attractive pamphlets "Oshawa and Its Environment" and "Oshawa Visitors' Guide". The first deals with "The Economic and Cult- ural Life of Oshawa'; the second points out some of the local attractions, such as Camp Samac, the National Stud Farm, Henry House and the south plant of GM. The pamphlet points out that people outside Osh- awa are not aware of the dynamic growth that has taken place here in the last 12 years; that this City is the eighth largest in Ontario and is grouped with Kitch- ener and St. Catharines after the first big five (Toronto, Hamilton, Windsor, Ottawa and London.) The folders have been made available through the co-operation of the City Council and the Visitors and Convention Development committee of the Chamber-- the former contributed $1000, the latter did the work. CORPS PLANS DRUMHEAD SERVICE The 600-member Oshawa Unit 42 of the Canadian Corps Association is planning a mammoth drumhead service in Memorial Park Saturday, October 7 at 2:30 p.m. with bands present from distant U.S. and Can- adian points . . . Some members of the Ulster Girls Choir let it be known to the press while here that they are not altogether in favor of certain Distaff Side fash- ions and customs on display in Canada. For instance, they feel that skirts are far too high and also that too many women appear hatless in public (also that too Ready In States LAS VEGAS, Nev. (AP)--The United States, says an authori- tative source, has 24 bombs "ready to go" at the proving grounds for its arsenal of nu- clear weapons. Authoritative but sources also say: 1. The first blast almost cer- tainly will be in a deep tunnel under Rainier Mesa at the north end of the Nevada test site, 65 | miles northwest of this gambl- ing resort. 2. It could be set off within hours: after officials at the At- omic Energy Commission's Camp Mercury get the green light from Washington. Sources in the Kennedy administration said on Sept. 7, however, that the first shot would be fired in about two weeks. 3. Camp Mercury, Rainier Mesa and construction offices on the site--now closed to report- ers--are bustling with activity reminiscent of 1951-58 boom days halted by the international ban on atomic tests. 4.

That riddle now is closer to being solved than it has been for years. Stumbling block is the degree, of unanimity needed before those sections are altered.
