THE OSHAWA TIMES, Saturday, January 6, 1962 3 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN A STORY OF HOPE AND HIGH COURAGE There are some nice people in Oshawa, and Mark Holmes, 4, proves it. Mark is leaving for California next week, It won't be a pleasure trip, but a desperate odessy in search of his: health, which is ebbing away fast. » Mr. and. Mrs. Don EHolmes of 118 Sutherland ve. are his parents. They re not too optimistic about 'his chances for recovery. _. They are convinced about .one thing their son won't even survive the Winter if he remains, in this climate. His lungs are too wéak. They clog with mucus quickly. He contacts pne- umonia often. Mark has an advanced case of Cystic Fibrosis in the bowels and lungs. This makes digesti difficult, causes mucus to clog the lungs. He is losing weight a MARK HOLMES _ rapidly, is now at 30 OF 118 SUTHERLAND AVE. pounds, The disease was always regarded as fatal until 1955. Mark's father Don, 31, is a salesman with a downtown office supply firm and life-long resident. His mother, Merrilyn, is 29. They have been married 11 years and have an older child, Pamela, 7. Mark is handsome and blonde. He acts like any nor- mal male four-year-old, except when he has serious coughing spells, which is frequently. He sleeps in a special tent through»which a mist vapor (composed of glycol, salt and distilled water) circulates by means of a generator in the basement. The mist enables Mark to breathe. He would die without it. The tent and equipment cost $400 and was the gift of the Ladies' Civitan Club of Oshawa A BIG AND DESPERATE DECISION Mark's illness over the past two years has' been a severe emotional shock for his parents. It has also caus- ed a big drain on the family's meagre financial re- sources, especially with medical bills and drugs. Mark can only digest food by means of a regular capsule drug (Cotazym); one of four drugs he uses regularly at a monthly cost of more than $40. The Holmes made a big (and desperate) decision two months ago -- they decided to leave Oshawa -- their home for 11 years, his for 31 -- and move to California in an attempt to save Mark's life. They will live in San Jose. Don describes its cli- i1ate as "not too humid, not too dry for my = son, That's what he needs. We love Oshawa, but we can't sit around and see our son's life ebb away without trying to save him. He won't last the winter here. Down there he's got a better chance". The Holmes recently sold all of their worldly be- longings (with the exception of "a few sticks of furni- ture" and a 1952 Pontiac that will take them south) to help defray expenses to their new home. They have rented a house for four years here. Dr. Allan Rundle, Mark's doctor, says there known cure for "advanced" cases of Cystic Fibrosis, but that the ailment can be relieved, although chances for survivaf®eyond adolescence are slim in cases like this, 8 OR 9 MILD CASES IN AREA "Remember one thing," explained Dr. Rundle, "I am only referring to extreme cases of the ailment, such as Mark's. I have personal knowledge of eight or nine mild cases in this district where the prospects for re- covery are much greater. I would not advocate a change to a warmer climate for these cases. I am agreeable to Mark's removal because he suffers so intensely in this winter climate. Cystic Fibrosis is a comparatively new ailment and much research remains to be done be- fore we understand it thoroughly." Medical researchers are seeking to learn why the victim's body excretes excessive mucus so much that it plugs the internal pancreas ducts. As we said earlier - there are some nice people in Oshawa, people like Rev. Harry Mellow, minister of Northminster United Church who quietly spread the word about 'the family's plight (Don and Merrilyn are members of his church) until cash donations started to come in. Church members helped. So did the IOOF, the Osh- awa Kiwanis Club, the Oshawa-Shrine Club, the Kins- men, the Hebrew Ladies Afternoon Club, the Oshawa B'Nai B'Rith, the Phi Phi Chapter of Sigma Phi Seror- ity, the Westmount 'Kiwanis, and the Oshawa Rotary Club. Mark's story is one of hope and high courage. These donations prove also that Oshawa has some warm-hearted citizens who won't turn a deaf ear to a deserving cause. Despite this, the fact must be faced that the dona- tions sent in won't carry the little family too long dur- ing their desperate mission. The cost of essential drugs and medical care and, es- specially, the high cost of living will see to that, is no COUNCIL NEEDS FRESH BLOOD It was unlike any previous early-January secret caucus of Oshawa's City.Council (when the elected rep- resentatives get down to one of their more important tasks of the year -- the selection of standing committees and the naming of appointees to boards, councils and commissions. ) The big show was com- pleted in record time -- Councillors were on their way home shortly after 12 o'clock noon, instead of at the traditional 3 or 5 p.m. Even the elder Council statesmen (like Finley Da- foe) said later that they had never seen any pre- cedent for it -- the stand- ing committees had been re-appointed intact with- out the casting of. a single vote. This is what happened at City Hall last Saturday. Gone was the traditional caucus'room tension and bedlam with. the rough give-and-take, the bitter FINLEY DAFOE bickering and free exchange of ideas behind closed doors (Remember the year that Lyman Gifford, then an alder- man, got so incensed at proceedings he bolted from the room permanently long before the agenda was com- pleted?) This latter omission, if it is permanent, could rep- resent a definite sign of progress, but Saturday's show wagtoo cosy, apathetic, "cut-and-driedi} | 93S .

The raids were described by Insp. Joe Bedard as '"'only the beginning." Insp. Bedard said charges against at least some of. the eight persons detained probably will be laid early next week. No names were released. Police said that, although they |were looking primarily for bank loot, the 40 raiders also picked up about $4,000 worth of elec- trical appliances and other household goods believed to have been stolen. | HAS 15-POUND BABY | TAIPEI (Reuters) -- Doctors said Friday that a 15 - pound baby boy born to the 40-year- old wife of a Chinese National- ist army officer was the heav- iest baby in Chinese medical history.

Hamilton added that Snowdon} occasionally would take pictures himself in his new post but was "not going to work on the hot side of newspaper work which might be an embarrassment to him."
