NOTES FROM THE HUSTINGS OF ONTARIO RIDING: Local Liberals will open their Oshawa committee rooms wat 7% Simcoe street south tonight -- Norm Cafik, Party can- didate in Ontario riding, will do the honors. The Party's "Ajax committee rooms were opened Thursday night. Miss Aileen Hall, NDP candidate in Ontario riding, was to address the student assembly of the Oshawa Missionary College (Seventh-Day Adventists) today -- she was also sche- duled to introduce Tommy Douglas at tonight's big NDP rally 4n the OCCI, Tommy drew more: than 700 at his meeting "here in the 1962 election campaign, President Malcolm Smith of Local 222, UAW-CLC is flex- ung his editorial muscles again -- he plans to sound off "against Labor Minister "Mike" Starr over the cabinet minis- ter's recent speech at St..Gregory's Auditorium in which it was claimed that Oshawa never before enjoyed such prosper- -ity and that much, if not all, of this was due to the Federal government's record. Miss Aileen Hall was unanimously endorsed this week as "NDP candidate in Ontario riding by the Oshawa and: Dis- trict Labor Council. Miss Hall wants people to look at her "and say, "She stands for the NDP, its platform and its. inter- ests." *SCHOOL-COST CUT ISSUE DEBATED Chairman George K. Drynan, QC, of the Board of Educa- tion, has protested that our reference to him herein of last Wednesday as "an ardent disciple of the There's-Nothing- Too-Good-for-Education-No-Matter-the-Cost philosophy" was grossly unfair. This department agrees tt such criticis was undeserved, inasmuch as Mr. Dryna. is anxious to « echool costs also, if not\always in the same way as proposed "by this deparfment. We regret this error. Such a name-tag + does not apply to Mr. Drynan. 'COLD-HOT AIR STEAMS UP AILEEN'S GLASSES SEEN AT BREAKFAST IN THE HOTEL GENOSHA: "Allen Schroeder, the amiable Education Director of the Ca- _nadian UAW (surrounded by bacon and eggs and campaign literature). He is campaign manager for Miss Aileen Hall and one of her hardest workers. His is a tough dual job these days, directing the NDP campaign in Ontario riding and trying to keep in touch with his own job in Windsor, He is confident the NDP's will win Oshawa City this time. He says the door-to-door campaign, is "paying off'. . . . Miss Hall's only official complaint thus far is that she can't al- ways accept invitations from housewives to step indoors for ' chit-chats because the warm air steams up her glasses -- so «she does her campaigning from the front door (another ex- " os of the hazards to be encountered along the political } trails "DEADLINE CLOSES FOR DIRECTOR'S POST The deadline date has passed for applications for the po- "sition of Director of Operations. It is the fervent prayer of all that City Council will give @areful consideration to this appointment, that its decisions "will not be influenced by petty prejudices. The Director will be the kingpin in the new municipal jbet-up as -- as proposed in the Woods, Gordon Report -- and "will have control of all "operating departments" at City 'Hall, but not of Purchasing and Personnel. ™ His biggest job will be to get Board of Works Yard into 'better working order, a project that is long overdue, and to help to implement the Report's recommendations in regard to the City Engineering Department. He will co-ordinate the activities of the City Engineering, Works, Parks, Property and Recreation Departments. He will also control the presentation and preparation to Council of annual operating and capital budgets, expenditures, of departments under his jurisdiction.

Deformed Child Case Delayed Until April 3 HAMBURG, West Germany (AP) -- Hearings have been postponed until April 3 on a civil lawsuit by the parents of a deformed child seeking dam- ages from the manufacturer of the tranquilizer drug thalido- mide. Judge H. Guetschow said the case may take several years because of the legal in- tricacies involved. The plaintiffs, shipyard worker Guenther Sempf and his wife, also were told by Guets- chow to furnish additional evi- dence on the case. The judge said such evidence includes proof by a party other than the plaintiffs that Mrs. Sempf actually took thalido- mide--marketed in West Ger- many undér the trade name of Contergan-- during her preg- ancy. In addition, they will have to prove that the manufacturers, Cheoer Gruententhal of Stol- berg, were aware of any crip- pling effects by the drug at the time of Mrs. Sempf's preg- nancy. The Sempfs' son, Uwe, was born Sept. 30, 1961.

"In my opinion, this is a necessary procedural section to ensure that in the interests of justice all relevant evidence may be brought before the court. It is the duty of the court to see that this is done, and the judge advocate. general may not be taken to have been given power under this section (of the Defence Act) to restrict in any way the limits of that duty.
