wie @ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridéy, Octobér 30, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACKGEARIN -- CHILDREN'S POOL PLAN IS ADVANCED ~ Mayor Lyman did much Thursday night to restore order, sanity to the Centennial project debat His proposal for.a swimming pool on one of two city- owned sites (southwest corner of Adelaide avenue east and 'witsén rowd north -- or the southeast corner of the Hillsdale Maiior property) won overwhelming Council support, 10-1, at the .committee-lével. It now needs only ratification in open Countil to become a reality. His Worship's proposal has uniqie merit. It will _ un- quéstionably appeal to hun- dreds of parents anxious for moré civic-sponsored swim- ming outlets centrally- located. Mr. Gifford was careful to repeat his now- famous Centennial -- slogan: "We must take the pools 'to the children, not the children to the pools," a reference which will not ¢xacly endear him to his Civie Auditorium friends. One of the big selling points with Mr. Gifford's plan to date has been this double-edged feature -- not only will it stand out as a fitting birthday gift for Can- ada's Centennial year, but the cost can stay well within the gtant.figure of approximately $186,000. Mr. Gifford stressed that no official word had been re- ceived from Queen's Park about a deadline-time extension from November 9 for submitting project proposals. He said Council, therefore, would have to move fast. 'ALDERMAN MURDOCH WELL, LET'S GO AND TELL Herman M. Batten, chair- ber of Parliament for Hum- THEM...

Apart from the much-needed Simcoe Hall Boys' Club pool which doesn't begin to supply the swimming needs for the-southeast, the City still has but two civic pools (the 'game number incidentally it had away back in the early 1050's). Rotary pool was closed down temporarily (and a new one built to replace it) and Ritson road permanently four years ago on order of the City Health Department when the bacteria content analysis was found to be on a par with that of a sewage disposal plant, thus narrowly averting an epi- demic. es Cotincil's 'majority should stand firm by their 10-1 deci- sion, come hell or high water. The 14-man Centennial com- mittee deserves high praise for performing a most~arduous civie duty, but the responsibility for the final decision in such an important matter could. not reasonably be foisted off on an advisory group. Alderman Hayward Murdoch was miffed because the three final: proposals were a pool, grandstand and arts theatre, whereas he refrained from advocating a Health and Welfare building with a juvenile court ("which is desperately needed"). Mr. Murdoch's disappointment is understandable, but Council heed not apologize for the official stand it took Wednesday night. STUDENTS TO HEAR POLITICAL BIG-WIGS So the students at the McLaughlin Collegiate Institute and Vocational School will attend lectures by prominent political figures starting with Pauline Jewett, MP, Northumberland November 9. The promoters of this revolutionary youth training pro- gram with emphasis on politics deserve a bouquet, especial- ly Principal George Roberts and James B. Palmer, History and Economics teacher at MCVI. The students will have an opportunity to hear these elect- ed representatives of various political colors first-hand; also they will have a chance to question them on controversial subjects. To give an idea of the top quality of the roster scheduled, "'Mike" Starr, M. J. Coldwell and Senator Jean Francois Pouliot will follow on different dates. Open political discussion is taboo today in too many @tratas of our society, a sad commentary on our way of life; the place to start to correct this situation is in the ranks of the teen-agers, the citizens of tomorrow. Too bad the schools don't inaugurate a course in Muni- cipal Politics, a fascinating subject and one worthy of the attention of all citizens, young and old.

He said that as he and the official who, was to give him the test approached his car, the official asked him to read the licence number on_ the back of a truck .parked be- side his car. This is a stan- dard eye - test procedure in Britain "I put on my glasses and I made a mistake in reading the registration," explained Reis, '"'but I got only oné fet- ter wrong. Anyhow, the plate was dirty." Asked if he would try still again, Reis said: "Yes. This won't stop me. I shall keep on until. I get the licence. I'm a splendid driver.
