2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, Mey 23, 1963 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN CITY JAYCEES ACCLAIMED AT CONVENTION Congratulations, once again, to the Oshawa Jaycees! What local group does more to promote civic pride? | _ In an age of general apathy towards municipal politics, the vital role of the Jaycees is not always appreciated by many as much as it should be, which is unfortunate. * The Oshawa club, however, deserves special mention for ita achievements of last weekend at the Ontario Jaycees' tonvention in Kitchener. It won prizes in four classifica- tions, including two firsts. ge It won first place in the Special Projects event for its highly successful endeavors in the Get-Out-and-Vote field --in this regard, it could point with pride to its annual Town Hall Municipal Elec- tion Forum of last Novem- 5 ber and also to its co-op participation later in the highly-successful Young On- = tario Votes (Federal elec- tion) forum with St. Greg- ory's Young People's Club. It also won a first in Com- ; munity Betterment, a second in Government and. Civic Affairs and a "special men- tion" in Public Relations. President Fred Ball, who has guided the young Jay- cees through an active and highly-successful year, will step down soon to be re- placed by Vice - President 4 Victor Brookes. Did we also mention that the Jaycees also had charge of the Parade committee of the recent CNR Tracks Re- moval celebration ? FRED BALL CHRISTIAN BROTHERS TO DEPART SOON The boys' choir of St. Gregory's Roman Catholic Church has an important engagement upcoming, one that will be history-making for the group. This will be their concert Wednesday, May 29, at 8 p.m. in the Church auditorium, Simcoe street north, and therein lies a story. The choir is composed of students in Grades 3 to 8: It changes in make-up yearly because of school graduations, but it has been under the same directorship and. supervision for the past 19 years. This latter work has been done by the Christian Brothers, a Roman Catholic religious order founded in Paris, France, in. 1662 by Ste. John Baptiste De La Salle and now with some 28,000 members (approximately 2,300 of which are in Canada). The May 29 concert will mark one of the last appear- ances of the choir under the direction of the Christian Broth- ers (Rev. Brother Leonard is the actual director -- he is sometimes assisted by Rev. Brother Terrence, director of the Oshawa community and principal of St. Gregory's Sep- arate School; and Rev. Brother Martin) who are leaving Oshawa permanently in June. The Brothers founded the choir in 1944, the year of their arrival here. They have been associated with the choir since. There are three members of the Order in residence at their Oshawa house, 215 Simcoe street north. Rev. Brother Terrence explained the reasons for their departure this way today: "The idea of the Church is to have more Catholic High Schools and there are more and more demands on religious orders to supply teachers for these institutions. We have had a long and happy association with Oshawa. We hate to leave as we have many friends here.' The Brothers take vows of chastitiy, obedience, poverty and fidelity -- in addition, they take vows that they will teach "gratituously"'. uv They study for Bachelor of Arts degrees as part of their academic training. 'WALKER BUSY ON THE HUSTINGS "Provincial election talk locally has died down to a lull, but Albert V. Walker, the PC's candidate in Oshawa riding, is not allowing any grass to grow under his feet campaign- wise. He turns up these days with clock-like regularity at large social and _ political functions, frequently with Michael Starr, MP, who must know as many riding folks by their first name as any local candidate in his- tory. When Mr. Starr acted as Master of Ceremonies last Saturday at a reception in St. Gregory's Auditorium for more than 500 following the Sworik-Jackson wedding, Mr. Walker was in attendance. Tonight he will be . guest speaker at the annual meet- ing of the City of Oshawa Progressive-Conservative As- sociation in the Hotel Gen- osha.

Practically everyone has be- come "bomb-conscious" in the wake of a series of bombings, blamed on Le Front de Libera- tion Quebecois. The group's an- nounced aim is to win Quebec's independence through violence. Bomb explosions have oc- curred sporadically since March 8 and have taken the life of one man and critically injured an- other. The worst outbreak was last Friday when a_ dozen bombs -- dynamite sticks at- tached to cheap watches--were found in public mailboxes in suburban Westmount, a largely English - language community) and home of some of Quebec! province's richest people. The provincial government has offered a $50,000 reward and the city of Montreal a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and convittion of any of the bomb planters.

EXPRESS THEIR DISGUST There has been a general our pouring of sympathy for the bomb victims. Both French- and English-speaking residents of the province have expressed their disgust with the terrorists. The incidents have had no no- ticeable effect on French-Eng- lish relations. No one is treating the inci- dents lightly. There are no bomb jokes making the rounds, but the actions of some people have caused smiles.

He said Quebec's in- dependence must be gained through democratic methods, BLAMES ENGLISH : ; At one point, Mr. Chaput blamed the bombings on Eng- lish elements trying to discredit his separatist movement, Later. he said it was simply his own opinion and that he had no con- crete evidence, ' He was not alone in specula ing on the composition of the ter- rorist group, Some believe beat-' niks are involved, Others blame hot-headed university students, A few say the organization ig financed by wealthy business- man disgruntled over treatment received at one time from the federal .government, Mention has been made of the possibility the group 'includes former me bers of the outlawed French Secret Armyowhich car- ried out bombing attacks in Al- geria before that country was granted independence "by France, Some believe the aim of the group is to blast so wide a gulf between the French- and Eng- lish-speaking peoples that the only solution will be to grant Quebec independence.
