Z THE OSHAWA Times, weanesday, Jenuery 2, 170" GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN MORE NOTES ON NORDAIR'S LOCAL SERVICE What future plans has Nordair Airlines for Oshawa? The firm has not included a non-stop Oshawa-Mon- treal flight in its January schedule, although permission "was granted for such by the Air Transport Board several weeks ago. Nordair, on the other hand, is ready for a new line of sales attack to bolster its sadly-sagging (and practic- ally non-existant) Oshawa business. ° Jerry Cooper, the firm's district sales manager will soon embark on a door-to-door campaign (with emphasis on industrial firms) to publicize Nordair's Oshawa's service in places like Scarborough, Peter- borough and Toronto's Golden Mile, where the potential . i for air passenger and freight. business via Oshawa is believed to be good. , This new move is in keeping with some strong sug- gestions made by local groups, especially the recent fact-finding meeting of the industrial affairs committee of the Oshawa C of C under the chairmanship of Gordon Riehl. it would be unfortunate if Nordair did eventually pull out of Oshawa; not only was much hard work done by City Council and the Oshawa C of C. to get it here but there is another grim aspect to such an eventuality -- it would be many a moon before the City ever ob- tained another commercial air service. Ron Poulter, operations manager of Oshawa's Air Direct Ltd., (a chartered flight service) was emphatic today in stating that Nordair appears to be doing all within its power to make the Oshawa service go, but he is convinced that there is much Oshawa business to be obtained by a sales canvass of the above mentioned areas. Mr. Poulter also scoffs at critics of Nordair who claim that the firm is using too many DC-3's and that these planes are "uncomfortable". He listed some of the firms using this type of plane and the number of flights scheduled as follows: Lake Central Airlines (U.S.) 58 scheduled flights; Ozark Airlines (U.S.) 81; Central Airlines (U.S.) 51; Continental Airlines (U.S.) 20; Can- adian Pacific (C4nadian) four; United Airlines (U.S:) four: North Central Airlines (U.S.) 100; Northeast Air- lines (U.S.) 35; Piedmont Airlines (U.S.) 29; Mohawk Airlines (U.S.) 15; TCA (Canadian) two; Pacific Western (Canadian) 24; Quebecair (Canadian) four; Transair (Canadian) eight. Nordair will be introducing their new Hambley-Page Dart-Herald twin-engine job soon. The industrial affairs committee of the Oshawa C of C should be commended for its intelligent approach to a possible solution of the Nordair muddle. Its fact-find- ing expedition represents an invaluable public service. MILITIA AT HOME COLORFUL AFFAIRS The annual New Year's Day At Home, as featured in Oshawa's militia world, is a colorful event. Scores of reservists and ex-servicemen exchange pleasantries with fellow citizens from many walks of life in an at- mosphere of congeniality. These pleasant social affairs are minutely planned (down to the mild rum punch) to allow. for happy comradierie. Labor Minister Mike Starr is always there. So is T. D, "Tommy" Thomas. Several aldermen were at the Armories Monday -- Fin- ley Dafoe, Gordon Attersley, John Brady, Hayward Murdoch and Edgar F. Bastedo. One of the big shows (with plenty of pomp and ceremony) was in the Officers' Mess with a fine cross-section of community leaders pres- ent, including many from the business and industrial world, The Sergeants' Mess also put on a big show as did Branch 43, The Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 42, The Canadian Corps Association and Oshawa Naval Veterans Association. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO A GALLANT WARRIOR There was no advance publicity to herald the aus- picious event, but one of Ontario County's most famous residents marked an important birthday at 12 midnight Sunday. It was without fanfare or excitement. He didn't even get a greeting card from "Mike" Starr. The resident in question was Chop Chop (the Ken- tucky-born stallion by Flares, which once won the Ascot Gold Cup in England, which, in turn was by Gallant Fox) who is spending his declining years midst the pastoral beauty of E. P. Taylor's 1600-acre National Stud Farm two miles north-west of Oshawa. What made this birthday important was that Chop Chop was 22 officially, equivalent to the age of a human in the early 80's -- actually he was born sometime in 1940, but the birthdays of all registered thoroughbreds, north of the Equator, are estimated at 12 midnight on December 31 regardless of the month of birth. Chop Chop is a mighty name in Canada's thorough- bred breeding world with an average earning power as a sire of approximately $35,000 annually for the past several years. He has again been selected as Canada's leading sire -- the third time in a row and the fifth in all that he has topped this specialized list. He has had four Plate winners -- Blue Light, Canadiana, Lyford Cay and Victoria Park. He also had some good two- year-olds running for him last year, entries like Chop- erion and Peter's Chop (one-two in the Coronation), and Clarendon winner Prize Crew. Peter's Chop also won the Cup and Saucer. Choperion and Peter's Chop were the second one- two combination from this famous horse to win in the Coronation; also, Chopadette and Lyford Cay did it in 1956. Choperion was also the fourth Chop Chop to grab the Coronation. The others were Canadiana in 1952 and Victoria Park in 1959 -- his offsprings also won the Cup and Saucer four times.

This increased responsibility for largely. independent groups operating over a large area eventually will result, army sources feel, in an overhaul of }the rank structure in which rank will be related to the num- {ber of weapons and machines, not men, in each unit.

Costello, 70, appealed' from an at sol order June 21 that he be de- ported to Italy The board's ac- tion can be appealed further. Costello was serving a five- year sentence for income tax evasion before his release last June, when he was required to register as an alien. Born in Cosenza, Italy, Cos- tello was admitted to the United sales in 1895 and naturalized in 1925.

Malone was Crown prosecutor in Magistrate's Court, Toronto, he had quite a reputa- tion as a court room wit, as master of the facetious, well turned-out phrase that could relieve the drab monotony of judicial procedure. Mr. Malone (greying, but still debonair and witty) turned up in Magistrate's Court, Oshawa, recently as counsel for Jack Riggs, Toronto, one of the accused in an alleged gambling ring with outlets here and in the Queen City. Mr. Malone didn't look perturbed but he looked surprised when the court clerk (Mrs. C. Middleton) asked politely: "May I have the name of the defence counsel?" "Malone's the name -- crime's the game," came the friendly, but booming retort from Mr. Malone (who retired in 1955 as Crown prosecutor in Magistrate's -. court, Toronto, after holding the post for 25 years). 5 pe Z Ralph Simpson, 50, unemployed|'here maybe a new American- father of nine children, was killed Tuesday when a shotgun being cleaned by his 12-year-old son, Bill, discharged accidently. | Mr. Simpson and his son were cleaning several guns which had |been used on a Christmas hunt- jing trip when the 12-gauge shot gun went off The entire family was sitting in the room when the blast jcaught Mr, Simpson in the |stomach.
