INJURIES SEVERE A short cut to a friend's home across the busy 401 High- way brought death to a 14-year- old Kathleen Linda Guest, a Whitby inquest was told Mon- day night. Kathleen Guest, of Pine drive, Pickering, was killed instantly, Oct. 14, when she ran out into the eastbound lane of the high- way and was struck by a truck. The accident took place near the Fairport Beach road junc- tion. After a short recess, the jury decided that the girl had died accidentally in trying to cross the road. They attached no Giving evidence Dr. R. M. Clark, pathologist with Oshawa General Hospital, said that the girl died due to 'severe brain damage, haemorrhage and mul- tiple injuries, Her injuries, he added, were so severe that it was impossible to define the exact cause of death.

As far as I am con- cerned the reeve was backlash- ing out at matters of personal interest that were of no concern to the township. My business and municipal life are complete- ly separate and, in my own mind and conscience, I don't think I was wrong in asking the men, "There was no thought of any possible discrimination or re- ward, * "I simply asked them if they would help and they did and we all had a good time," the The use of township employ- ees was the topic of a heated discussion between Reeve John Goodwin and Deputy Reeve John Dryden at Monday's meet- ing of Whitby Township Coun- cil.

He said, "I understand Mr. Dryden you had a small job to do at your place and you asked the township employees to help. "When asking, them you said that you would appreciate it if they would. "What happens if an em- ployee, who refused to help you, is fired six months from now? "Could he say that he was being discriminated against be- cause he refused to help you with your little job?
