@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thoredey, February 21, 1963 * J. K. SANDERS HOLDS SENSITIVE LIGHT CELL PNOTO-ELECTRIC CELL SITS ON HYDRO POLE Photo-Electric Cell Replaces Lamplighter AJAX (Staff) -- A far cry from the days of the old lamp lighter are today's modern street lights. The man who 75 years ago could be seen lighting the gas 'Liberal Assails 'Starr's Leaning PICKERING (Staff) -- A de- * sire not for a sweeping victory "in the coming election, but!' , "enough members to take ac- tion in the time of Canada's great need" was expressed by ex-Liberal MP James Walker at a meeting in West Rouge, Wed- y nesday night. Mr. James Walker told an or- _, ganizational meeting of 40 mem- * bers of the West Rouge Libera! "Association "'let's not have a sweeping majority, That's not good for the country. We just . want enough members to take * action". "That man is at it again, The prime minister, who was un. doubtedly a promising young , fellow, has not got over it yet. " Diefenbaker has made promises * that have led this country to the , edge of ruin," Mr. Walker said. Mr. Walker told the gather- *, ing be had been speaking to the - Prime Minister recently and ' "the Prime Minister said he "was feeling good. -- He might be feeling good but the country is sick." Referring to a speech made by the PM promising a program of slum clearance, Mr. Walker said "I would like to know where the money is coming ' from to pay for the clearance "You would swear the Lib. erais had killed the Avro Arrow," Mr. Walker said. "The destruction of the Avro Arrow was the beginning of the nuclear dilemma in this coun- » try," said Mr. Walker. In the House of Commons, the « Liberals are attacked by every- body but "the tree with the best apples is the one that is always fi getting knocked". "I'm pleased to see Mr. Starr » in the House, He's a courteous * and a nice fellow but he's only got one problem, he's in the wrong party and has the wrong leader. "I'm convinced he's a Liberal by persuasion but a Tory by desperation.

"As labor leaders more and more confer with government heads," he said, '"'they become suspect if they are completely tied up with one party.

Public-Speaking Contests Held Cartwright PS By OLGA HILL BLACKSTOCK -- The semi- inal Public Speaking Contest was held in Cartwright Central Public School recently. Mr. Merkley, principal of Vin- cent Massey School, Bowman- ville was chairman. Following are the names of the nine speakers and their sub- jects: Education -- The Robart Plan by Carol Bain of Central School, Bowmanville, Upper Canada Village, by Linda Butt, Blackstock.

The Satellite called Telstar, by John McGurk, Maple Grove. After speaker five, lights of town every evening and shutting them off every morning has been replaced vy a small metal and plastic box costing approximately $30. This small box, known as a light sensitive switch incorpor- ating a photo electric cell is mounted on light poles in var- ious parts of town. The amount of light in the sky controls the switch and when the intensity of light in the evening falls to a pre-set level on the light sensitive cell in the switch, a circuit is opened and the lighis come on. The same is the case in the morning. When daylight reaches a certain intensity the photo electric cell operates a switch to turn the lights off. HAVE 10 SWITCHES Ten of these switches oper- ate the 250 street lights situated in Ajax and are made to last almost indefinitely. When the towns and cities in Canada first changed from gas to electric lighting it was the duty of a man at the Hydro sub- station to throw the switch at dusk, The new sysem eliminates ingston )cp) -- Harry Blacklock, president of Fron- tenac-Addington Liberal Asso- ciation, said Wednesday Ontario Liberal Leader John Winter- meyer is only a figurehead at the top of the party and that real power lies with a King- ston man. Mr. Blacklock, 79, said in an interview the riding is split over the nomination Dec. 15 of Mrs. Theresa Chippendale, 37, of Kingston. He said the nominating con- vention had been postponed twice and was held despite a registered letter from Ontario Liberal campaign headquarters in Toronto forbidding it. The riding's executive, he said, stands 100 per cent be- hind Mrs. Chippendale. He said Mrs. Chippendale, on the in. structions of the executive, placed an advertisement in the press and radio, The advertisement says: "T do not intend to see my riding manipulated by one man, who, through ambition or persongl quarrels, with local officials, wishes to set aside the demo. cratic wishes of local Liberals." CANDIDATE SILENT Mrs. Chippendale declines to comment, but Mr. Blacklock said: "I could name this man in a minute, but everyone knows who he is. He's a King- ston man." Radio station CKWS reported that another nominating con. vention would be held to un- seat Mrs. Chippendale. The sta- Wintermeyer Said Only 'Figurehead Mr. Blacklock said: "If Win- termeyer had any guts he'd come down here .. . I think he wants to come down but he doesn't seem to be allowed to." Mr, Wintermeyer said last Friday he regarded Mrs. Chip- pendale as '"'a very fine, hard- working Liveral." The Liberal leader was not available for further comment on the dispute. 'Health' Topic At Blackstock WI Meeting By OLGA HILL BLACKSTOCK -- The Wom- en's Institute met at the home of Mrs. Percy Van Camp Wed- nesday afternoon with 28 ladies and two children present. Among the thank-you notes read was a letter from Miss Mabel Tam, welfare worker, St. Simon Hostel, Hong Kong. She expressed her thanks for the Christmas gift for Chan- Ning, the group's adopted boy. Letters were received from the Children's Aid, Golden Plow Lodge, C.A.C., A news letter from Northumberland - Dur- ham TB Association and The this duty and helps to cut the cost of power by saving on the wages of men. As the old incandescent lights in town burn out, they are be- ing replaced by modern mer- cury. vapor and _ fluorescent lights, Mr. J. K. Sanders, genera! manager of the Ajax Hydro Electric Commission said there are approximately 3,000 burning hours for the town's street lights in a year. The old style incandescent light bulb lasts approximately 2,500 hours, or less than a year of service. The new mercury vapor and fluorescent lights being installed lasts for two and a half burning years, Use of these amazing photo electric cells is not confined to operating street lights. STOP THEFTS They are used to turn on ad- vertising signs and to light fences around factories and other private properties. One practical use these cells could be put to is the protection of private homes while the own- er is away. A cell would be placed on the chimney and when darkness ap- proaches any number of lights in the house would come on, giving the home the appearance of being occupied. Photo electric cells similar to the ones used in lighting Ajax are found controlling the lens opening on automatic cameras and opening doors in super mar- kets. One failing of these cells is that regardless of romance the lights come on. The old lamp-lighter, who by modern standards used a slow and inefficient means of light- ing the streets and parks, cre- ated an atmosphere no machine is capable of when he failed to: whe t the lamp above the bench ere grandfather nestled his love.

Formosa (AP) --jf KINGSTON, Ont. (CP) idea born in the mind of a Queen's University medical stu- dent five years ago may im-' prove knowledge of the heart's action and speed diagnosis of heart disease. The idea has resulted in new electronic device, the brainchild of Dr, Graham Schuler, 30, now a research fel- low at Queen's. The machine--known as an gr is designed to pinpoint heart damage and develop a sure and fast method of evalu- ating the heart's condition. At least two more years of testing will be needed. before the machine will be ready for general use. It has been brought to full development through facilities of the medical electronics sec- tion of the National Research Council in Ottawa, The first of its type, the ap- paratus measures the electrical activity associated with heart contraction and shows . these impulses on a series of smail television screens. The machine picks up the im- pulses through about 70 elec- trodes placed on the chest. GIVES TOTAL PICTURE Previously the only way of reading these impulses was with the conventional electro- cardiogram. This showed only a partial picture of the heart's total electrical activity and it took years of training before a doctor could accurately read its graph, The new machine is designed to present the total picture. The idea came to Dr. Schuler when he was in second year medicine. With encouragement from Dr, J. D.
