2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, April 21, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- NDP TO DISCUSS MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS 'NOTES FROM THE HUSTINGS: Many local groups are reluctant to sponsor open dis- eussons, debates, etc., on municipal politics, but this cer- tainly doesn't apply to the Ontario (Federal) Riding New Dembcratic Party Association. The NDP's local representatives will head right into the subject at their special membership meeting next Sunday, April 26, in the Fleetwood Room of the Hotel Genosha, start- ing at 7:30 p.m, Five NDP members who hold municipal office in Oshawa have been invited to participate in an open discussion on municipal pol- tics under the heading, "Priorities in Municipal Af- fairs," which will certainly leave a wide field for de- bate, Each of the five will be given 10 minutes to state his or her opinions -- this will be followed by a ques- tion-and-answer period The five speakers will be: Aldermen John Brady, Clif- ford Pilkey and Cephas Gay., and Alice Reardon from LOUIS MUNROE City Council and Trustee William T. Werry from the Board of Education. President Louis Munroe of the riding association will act as chairman. "We hope to stimulate more interest in municipal affairs by meetings such as this,' he said today. 'Therefore, we hope to have a big turnout. At this time, also I would also like to stress one other point -- the meeting is open to the 'public at lange. If you have questions to ask of these elected representatives, you are welcome to attend." Don't be surprised if the Ward system of electing muni- cipal representatives doesn't get a good hauling over the coals before the evening is over. Mr. Munroe will also present a plaque to the member who has signed up the most new members since the last membership meeting. William G. Lawson, of Ajax, former president of the Ontario (Federal) Riding Liberal Association, is making good recovery in the Oshawa General Hospital where he has been @ patient for about 10 days, Hé has a heart ailment and expects to be released shortly, He is secretary of the ORLA and hopes to be on hand for the next membership meeting at Whitby in May. . . . Norman Cafik, twice a Federal Lib- eral candidate in this riding, is on a business trip to Port- land, Oregon, but will return early next week. He has made no commitment as to whether he will allow his name to eiand again as a Federal candidate. IN THE WORLD OF HIGHER LEARNING Remember Joseph Victor, the former City alderman call- ed to the Bar last April at 45 after a remarkable and sus- tained eight-year scholastic performance in search of higher Education? i Victor, the father of two grown sons and also a grandpop, went back to school at 38 after an absence of more than 21 years to successively obtain: (1) his Grade 13 departmen- tals; (2) a Bachelor of Arts degree from Victoria University; (3) his Law degree (he obtained second class honors in 14 fourth-year subjects at Osgoode), Victor's performance has frequently been pointed out &s an inspiration, especially for those potential would-be drop-outs in the teen-age bracket (who would act today and regret tomorrow), Two other Oshawa residents in Victor's age-group, each of whom enrolled at Osgoode after long absence from school, ere currently completing their third year in Law -- Fred Jones and Rev. Darren L. Michael. Mr. Jones, 48, has four children. He is the brother of Lawyer Ralph Jones of Osh- awa. He started to study Law in the early 1930's but gave it up to go back to work during the depression. Mr. Michael, 40, received his Bachelor of Arts degree several years ago from an American university -- he still holds down the position of public relations director for the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Canada. He has five chil- dren of his own and one adopted, Remember how Mr. Victor estimated he travelled more than 80,000 miles via bus in eight years to and from Toronto daily except Sunday)? Mr. Jones commutes daily to Toronto by bus, but Mr. Michael uses the CNR. Each has about 18 months to go before being called to the Bar, but the tough. scholastic grind appears to agree with them. O'CASEY CLASSIC HAS TIMELY LOCAL REVIVAL So Irish Playwright Sean O'Casey is kicking up an inter- national ruckus once again? This should being joy to the heart of Director Harry Chapman of the Oshawa Little Theatre, who likes to keep a weather eye on the box-office. The.OLT is all set tonight, under Mr. Chapman's care, to present its own produc- tion of O'Casey "Juno and the Paycock", the classic tragedy of the Irish Civil War to be repeated nightly in the McLaughlin Theatre Library up to and including Saturday. Evalyn Richards heads the cast of 12 -- the role of an "Irish irregular" will be played by Mr. Kevin Cahill, better known as the ity's Director of Opera- téons. : "Juno" is one of two 0'- Casey plays he is feuding about with the famed Abbey § 5 33 Players of Dublin--the other HARRY CHAPMAN ne te Perhaps the dispute has been settled by now, but the Abbey performers (about the lowest paid professional thespians in Europe) were ready to strike yesterday if they didn't get a pay hike -- they were scheduled to put on the two plays at the World Theatre Festival in London. Their strike dec- ision infuriated O'Casey because of the timing--he said they should have made the decision long before. They had been negotiating with the management since 1962. He had granted the Abbey special permission to put on the produc- tions. Mr. Chapman is hopeful that the overseas dispute will stimulate interest in the OLT's ambitious production,' under rehearsal for several weeks mow -- strange enough, the royalty fee for the O'Casey classic is much cheaper than that of most popular comedies ($25 the first night and $20 nightly, thereafter, as compared with $50 per performance for the later). The OLT works hard to keep the amateur theatre alive in this community -- it deserves the wholehearted support of all ¢ this venture. ' Everywhere in Timmins, Ont., the talk is copper.

There is a definite impression that this proud, passionate na- tion is gradually emerging from its self-imposed isolation. The big question is whether the in- exorable pressure of economic events will produce political change without violence. As Spain this month cele- brates the 25th anniversary of war, foreign comment shows a wide measure of agreement that something is brewing south of the Pyrenees. Some sample ob- servations: The Economist, London-- "Spain is showing several signs of pregnancy. The feeling seems to be that a new regime is on the verge of being born." The Spectator, London-- 'Spain is, in fact, in the middle of a process of evolution that is taking her away from the totali- tarian pattern of society... . An evolution that has for the mo- ment made itself felt only in economic affairs, but has yet to make much impression on the political structure of the coun- the peace that followed the civil/@ owly Dark L'Express, Paris--'A decisive change has taken place in Spain in the last three years," CHANGE ECONOMIC That change, says Express mon Market, Spain nevertheless will fing that economic integra- tion will be hard to accomplish without a simultaneous trans- formation in political and cul- tural fields. "History will tel us," adds , "whether the evolu- tion that has started will pro- ceed to its logical conclusion, or will be restricted to mere win- dow-dressing, a modernization of the facade." After. 25 years of Franco, ob-, servers agree, there is a change of mood. The old wild romanti- cism, the potential Iberian an- archy, has given way to a greater prudence. The tremend- ous influx of money-spending tourists, bringing with them a soupcon of the afluent society, (la sociedad opulenta) may be softening the hard challenges of the old Spain. A four-year development plan, started in January, has its aims a fairer distribution wealth, Basuto boys all working to- gether and never once did I see a scowl on any one of their faces,"' he said.
