Mr. Mapes, 14 Celina street, an inspector for the Oshawa Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said he feared for his two-year-old son Terence and other neighborhood children. Early yesterday morning, Mr. Mapes said, he went into a neighbor's yard and found the trapped cat. CRAWLED 100 YARDS It crawled some 100 yards with the trap still biting into its foot, jumped on to a five-foot fence injuring its stomach on barbed wire. The trap was trailing a one and a halffoot chain and a four- foot rope. Mr. Mapes and Mrs. Wilma Wilson, PCA secretary, took the large ginger one-year-old tom to veterinarian Dr. D, E. McLaurin where it was treated for a man- gled paw and a severe stomach wound, Today the cat is at Mr. Mapes' home waiting for its owner -- or if unclaimed, a new home.

"Describing the differences YMCA, Mr, McNeill stated that while basically, the two organ- izations have a great deal in common, the chief difference is that Boys' Clubs cater al- most entirely to children be- tween the ages of 7-t0-17, ex- cept for the "off hours" vi certain facilities are av le to adults. _ "The Boys' Clubs philosophy is to try to serve children who are not served by other organ- izations," stated the speaker. "A sincere welcome is extend- ed to each and every boy, rich or poor, bu.t we do especially look out for those most needy, due perhaps to some lack in their homelife or other defi- is in no way operated for the purpose 6f serving juvenile delinquents," he added. "We do not ask any boy or girl for their national origin nor his or her religion. "A YMCA varies according to community needs," Harold McNeill. They cater very strongly to adults or young men over 17-years-of- age. Commenting on the need for a YMCA, he said "I think Oshawa needs a YMCA. It would not overlap with the activities of the Boys' Club. A |YMCA would provide young men coming into the city with a medium of recreation and social activity, as well as sup- plying a place of residence." In closing his remarks, Mr. McNeill pointed out that proof of the great need in Oshawa for a second "Simcoe Hall! Boys' Club" has been given in the attendance figures, which show that at the Simcoe Street Club, attendance has been high- er in the past six months, than ever before.
