Amid the noise and confusion of the children, some parents were brave enough to take to the ice (at the risk of, being run down by their own childden) to fry: their luck on their own skates.

FAVORS BOLT ACTION Europeans, says Mr. Schwartz favor the bolt action rifle while here the most asked for gun is pump and lever. The. twin bar- rel side by side with rifle slung underneath is another favorite with European hunters who also plump for a short carbine for' mountain shooting. "One important difference is that in Europe you have to have money in order to hunt while here it seems that every other man can afford it," he adds. But when it comes to hunting the veteran gunsmith himself is no slouch. In several huntings last fall Mr. Schwartz squeezed the trig- ger of his bolt action .308 Mauser repeater with 4 Power German 'scope just ten times. His bag?

An autopsy performed at the Hospital for Sick Children showed the Chong baby had suf- fered a fractured skull, two broken arms and separations of both thigh bones, but these in-| juries had healed. Larry was born three weeks premature, Sept. 4, in Kapus- kasing. He was treated for a facial cut soon after birth. Dr. Bruce Feaver, who treated the child, testified he was told by Larry's father, Da- vid Chong, that a fall off a bed caused the injury. He said he did not believe this story be- cause the baby was too young to crawl. | The Chongs moved to Toronto} Nov. 12. The child was. cared for by his grandmother on var- ious occasions after Mrs.. Chong took a job. The society also found a foster home for Larry with Mrs. Dorothy Lang early in January after he was re- leased from hospital in January. After a short time, Mrs. Lang} gave him back to Mrs. Chong's mother, who 'in turn returned MAYOR HOME ON SATURDAY Mayor Lyman Gifford will be released from St. Mich- ael's Hospital, Toronto, Sat- urday, where he recently underwent. surgery.

'lbers singing three "spirituals,' Origin Of Spirituals Talk Theme Kiwanian Bill White, a chart- er member of the Golden Mile Club and the 962 Lieutenant- Governor of Kiwanis Division No. 6, returned to the Oshawa Kiwanis Club as its guest speak- er for this week's luncheon meeting and onceagain proved a feature attraction. Born in Nova Scotia and a graduate of Dalhousie Univer- sity, with BA in sociology, Kiwanian Bill has been active in social and service work in the Toronto area since 1946, He was introduced to the meeting by Kiwanian Ted Wildgoose while: Kiwanian Murray Sparkes voiced the keen appreciation of the members, at the conclusion of the program, Terming his address as "A Change of Pace," Kiwanian Bill White reached into his wealth of knowledge, gained through studies and experience, to deliver an inspiring message and challenge, through the medium of his description of the origin and significance of Negro spirituals. The speaker named _ several| well-known of such songs and pointed out that they were more than folk lore, they were used to portray the deep feelings of sorrow, regrets and hopes of these people, long oppressed as slaves. The Negro spirituals, the speaker explained, can be class- ified in three groups, those dealing with their interpreta- tions of heaven, subjects and events on earth and their own deep religious faith and confi- dence of improving their cur- rent problems of sadness and disillusionments. The "giants" and "'heroes" in the realm of religion are favored themes for many of the Negro spiritu- als, as well as great events and happenings as related in 'The Holy Bible. Kiwanian Bill highlighted his message with a practical dem- onstration of Negro spiritual singing and with his own splen- did voice and tremendous tal- ent as a teacher-leader, had the large meeting of over 80 mem- in four-part harmony, which constituted a valid punctuation to his address.

Although world friendship is stressed in the Girl Guide pro- gram the year around, each year on Feb. 22, Thinking Day, Girl Guides the world over, give special thoughts to international understanding by holding cere- monies and displays, and by thinking with good-will of their sister Guides in other countries.

New members may be enrolled in either Guide or Ranger Com- panies without having previous experience in Junior branches.

There are over 60 individual groups holding weekly meetings from September until June at the Guide House, 121 Simcoe St. S,, and in many Churches and Schools throughout the city.

McClevis to leaving the scene of an accident Charges of crim- inal. negligence and careless driving were withdrawn, but Magistrate McClevis said the criminal negligence charge could be relaid if further evi- dence warranted. He added: "I don't like this case one bit. However, I can only sentence you on leaving the scene of an accident. You're lucky your husband left you well fixed, and it's too bad he didn't live to enjoy it. If you feel any guilty about his death, T don't know how you will en- joy it."
