Wait just a min- ute! They said a cabin! I ghould hope so. Our winter camp isn't going to be that rough. We'll leave such things "till later Yes, the rafters of Camp Ad- emac are ringing this fair week- end with the discordant sounds of voices which are definitely not in harmony. Maybe that's why the cabin was built so far from the town. Each day characteristically etarts with "let me sleep just five minutes longer" (9 a.m.), and ends with--"but Skip, we're not tired. Well I am." (3 a.m.) As you can picture, never a dull moment, In addition to these regular problems there is usually a dis- cussion on world affairs, science fiction and other varied topics, followed by a rousing game of "Pit". That's during the night. In the daytime we pursue such activtiies as skating, skiing. (How many bones in the human body did you say? Gee I don't have many left to spare now!) and toboganning -- lots of fun. No getting lost I hope, and no colds -- maybe. Our departure last night show- ed our enthusiasm -- -- chaos as usual. But arrival was fun, It took half the night to get things stowed away but we were all set for today. Fortunately, we will be able to rest our weary selves at campfire tonight -- unless someone suggests a mid- night hike or something, It's hard cramming everything into one weekend, but we usually do. As a result we're very tired, but. very happy. Now for other crew activities, Lately we enrolled three new members: Bev Cranston, Inga Markalous and Cathy Aires. My apologies to Bev and Inga for neglecting to put their enroll- ment in the last column. Also we had a presentation of ser- vice stars -- from one to 13 years, This includes Guides and Brownies as well, so they're not really as old as they may sound. We've also been invited to a party. RCSCC "Drake" has ex- tended an invitation for the 16th -- skating and then dancing at the Barracks. Should be a good way to limber up those aches acquired at camp. Last week was our crew coun- cil meeting. At it we decided to try and make a small con- mT, THE NAVY WAY the destroyer escort, are, left to right: WO2 Walter N.

Thomas A, Adair, of and §-Sgt. of St. Defence Photo) have it ready to show during Boy Scout week. Thursday night the crew at- tended the Oshawa Rover Round Table meeting at Camp Samac when Don Beaton of the Emergency Measures Organi- zation explained some of the "Eleven Steps to Survival" Don also explained casualty col- lecting teams. At the next ORRT in March another lec- tribution to CARE every so often. We also drew up a sug- jgested set of boating rules for ithe Burlington Regatta. The new date set for our_ Banff Travelogue Night was Monday, Feb. 25, so more about that in the future. For our Thinking Day Church Parade, Feb. 24, we will attend the 9 a.m. Mass at St. Gregory's as a crew. Also for Thinking Day (Feb. 22) and the whole of that week which is Scouting Week, we have been invited, along with the Air Rangers to share a Dis- play Window in Eaton's with the Oshawa Rover Round Table. This window will portray the different aspects and activities of Rovering and Rangering and give the general public another glimpse of what we do. So anyone at the Shopping Centre during the week of Feb. 16 to. 23 please stop by and see the display. I'm sure you'll find it of interest. "HOPALONG" 7TH OSHAWA D. M.

Well I asked for colder wea- ther and we got it, but I didn't want it this weekend as this is the big weekend at Springwater Park, Midhurst. The crew has been planning this excursion for months. At 7.30 a.m. today 11 hearty Rovers and myself left for the "winter rally", Boy, was it shortly after 10 a.m. and the tents were sent up and the kit- ysl whipped into shape by After the official opening, the 100 Rovers were split into groups to participate in winter first aid, traps (I thought they meant drums -- boy was I fooled), cooking -- Did Grant show them a trick or two; mapping -- well let's forget about that one. Tonight we have the honor of running the camp fire -- i's go- ing to be completely ad lib. Well, off to get my supper and practice my singing for later.

We arrive at our destination} af Fey o Cornered"| Re-| Six acres of land adjacent to, the east side of Oshawa Har- bor. will be purchased from Mayor Lyman Gifford by the Oshawa Harbor Commission, it was learned today. The land is a strip 135 feet wide by 1500 feet deep and will be used for the construction of an improved access road. The Harbor Commission, created by. a special act of the Federal government to admini- ster Harbor facilities, thinks acquisition of the land will al- low improved facilities, particu- larly with regard to the load- ing and unloading of vessels. The land transaction can only be completed after receiving the approval of the Governor- General in Council, Harbor Area Site Sought This approval is ed within a month and will likely be announced through the fed- eral Department of Public Works, Sam Jackson Jr, Harbor Commission chairman, said today it is hoped to have the road ready by early summer, He revealed that talks with shippers are now going on, He said trucking facilities are needed and warehousing buildings may be erected later this year, The $500,000 berth on the Harbor's east side was. little used last year. These talks may have spurred the needed im- provements, Mr. Jackson refused to re- veal the price-per-acre at' this time, THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, Februcry 9, 1963 3 To Appeal For Support When representatives of St. Luke's Presbyterian Church make their annual visitiation of the Congregation tomorrow and next Sunday, an added feature will be an appeal for support of the Building Campaign autho- rized at the recent Annual Meeting.
