2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Scturdey, September 26, 1964 GENERAL MOTORS STRIKE GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- OUR HATS ARE OFF TO THE GAELS! loves a winner, so our hats are off to Osh- it Green Gaels. they reign more supreme than ever in their parti- cular field, Canada's junior lacrosse world. ee ing in ica miso i is Ne Geemnner ot only did they capture second Minto Cup in 'o years, they behaved in r that brought credit. to Coach Jim Bishop and to the ely shop Some may regret that there are not more "home- brews" on the club (they number only fiye), club spokesman said Friday that this situation would eventually be overcome with the development of more Oshawa players. "The game gets a big boost locally when we win a Minto cup," he added. 'This kind of publicity will draw more and more youngsters into the fold." Two years ago lacrosse was regarded as an "antiquated" game locally by many who associated it mostly with the 1990's and 1080's. Today lacrosse is the order of the day in many city playgrounds as the game's popularity advances by leaps and bounds. The man who deserves much credit for this, of course, is Jim Bishop. He didn't do it all alone, but he was the driving force, the man with the know-how. 7 IM BISHOP ENDS 36 YEARS WITH CITY FIRE DEPARTMENT What memories Platoon Chief Cecil J. Pollock must have of the Oshawa Fire Department! He was one of the tirst to join the force when it first went permanent in 1928 -- the late Robert Pollock, his father, had been a member of the volunteer and permanent brigade. Mr. Pollock will retire September 30 after 36 years of consecutive service. He is married to the former Vergie Bint, a sister of Alder- man R. Cecil Bint. Platoon Chief Pollock's friends tendered him a testimonial party Friday night at the Kinsmen Civie Centre. NOTES ON THE CITY'S MAYORALTY RACE Municipal election talk was still scarce this week, The potential candidates in Oshawa's forthcoming two- year mayoralty race maintained their rigid silence as the guessing game about their political plans continued, Will Mayor Lyman Gifford, apparently fit and robust once again after major surgery last Winter, retire from the political arena to his Sydenham Harbor farm in December (to "listen to the grass grow")? Will T. D. Tommy" Thomas end his retirement (started last September 25 when his 14-year reign as a member of the Legislature was terminated unexpectedly with his defeat at the polls) and toss his hat in the mayoralty, as so many ob- servers expect him to do? What about Alderman Gordon Attersley, who polled 9,848 votes in 1962 to head the aldermanic race? He would like to be mayor, but will he run? All remain silent. These were the big mayoralty campaign question marks and the answers will not be forthcoming too early. A two-way race between Mayor Gifford and Mr. Thomas would undoubtedly attract a heavy turnout at the polls, Each is an old political pro with solid backing from prestige groups. Each knows how to go out on the hustings and cam- paign effectively in a heated campaign, such as this would undoubtedly be. Where would Mr, Attersley stand against such opposition? Mr. Gifford defeated Mr. Attersley in a three-way mayor- alty race in 1958 with this result--Gifford, 5807; Walter Lane, 5,586; and Attersley, 2,214; but such results would be of little value in any appraisal of the upcoming race because of the City's new population growth. Furthermore, Mr. At- tersley has bolstered his popularity tremendously at the aldermanic polls in the last two elections; this does not neces- sarily mean that he could carry this strength over to the mayoralty race. Mr. Gifford twice contested the mayoralty against T. D. "Tommy" Thomas's wife, Christine (a long-time City alder- man). He was defeated by her in 1960 by 8,470 votes to 7,572. He defeated her in 1962 by 8,574 votes to 7,016. Whether or not Mr, Gifford or Mr. Thomas will seek the mayoralty this year, each is acting like a candidate, while maintaining official silence. Mr. Gifford has turned up around the banquet circuit far more frequently of late. Mr. Thomas was elected to the presidency of the new Provincial riding NDP association recently. LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE George Barrand, 26-year-old son of City Clerk Roy Bar- rand, is. to be married today to Miss Mary Lazin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Lazin of Oshawa. He is a pharmac- ist. Mayor Lyman Gifford will be among the wedding guests... . Rev. J, E. Law- lor, in town Thursday to speak at the Catholic Lunch- -% eon Club, said City and dis- trict co-op homebuilding units under his direction built 155 units with a total value of more than $1,500,- 000 (by NHA standards) be- tween 1953-1958. He said co-op homebuilding had de- creased drastically in re- cent months because "re- strictions on services". He organized and directed such local projects as Sherwood Park, Wyldewood Heights, Lawlor Homebuilders, St Gregory's, Dwyer Heights and Meadowbrook. Father Lawlor is currently a director of Twin Pines Senior Citizens Hous- ing. . . . Michael Starr, MP, Ontario Riding, will be the guest speaker at tonight's banquet for delegates to the Ontario Regiment Association banquet, in the Armories. "MIKE" 'STARR CHILDREN'S POOLS URGENTLY NEEDED Speaking of Oshawa's $183,438 Centennial project: The case for more children's swimming pools must not be sidetracked on a technicality. In the haste and excitement of the Centennial chase, the case for the children's pools has been studiously ignored, so much. so that no formal application has been made on their behalf with the deadline long since past. This is typical of City Hall's neglect for the children's general needs in regards to such pools. The case for the children's pools, nevertheless, has been elaborately spelled out, their moral right firmly established (despite the reluctance of many in influential circles to rec- ognize such). There is no desire herein to be critical of the Oshawa Centennial committee under the chairmanship of Mr. William O.

As has been pointed out, the case for the children's pools (as opposed to the proposed Centennial pool at the Civie Audi- torium) would not be so strong if the City's neglect in this department had not been so great. The Centennial -planning hysteria that has developed rapidly across the Province was engendered originally by | elected representatives, City Councillors to be precise, who decided to buck-pass instead of making the important deci- sions on Centennial planning, for themselves. : Councillors are elected by the people to make such deci- sions, however distasteful -- $183,438 is an impressive sum of money to hand out. Council's prime duty is to see that this money is spent on a project which will serve the greatest number of citizens, keeping in mind the true spirit of the 1967 Centennial eer AND LOOK AT THE COMFORT ADVANTAGES YOU ENJOY This 6-room home is owned by Mr. and, Mrs. R.
