Mrs. Grossberg is a trustee of the Forest Hill Board of Education. In her address to the gradu- ates, teaching staff and guests, Mrs. Grossberg said: "T know the glow of pride that you, the parents, feel tonight, for my son received his honor graduation diploma just two weeks ago. "Tl am sure. the graduates would want me to express their gratitude to the members of the teaching staff of McLaughlin Collegiate and Vocational Insti- tute. "You who are graduating to- night should still be in the prime of life 40 years from now. If we go back 40 years to the 1920's when I was young, radio was a wonderful new invention, tele- vision was unknown, movies were silent, automobiles were unreliable, odd looking vehicles that travelled on poor roads. "If we could bring back to 1964 someone who left this world in 1924 he would receive 100 daily shocks and surprises and could say that the world had changed more in this period than it had in any other age 'We are confronted today with what has been called an "explo- sion of knowledge". According to the best estimates available -- knowledge that had been ac- cumulated prior to 1900, doubled in the fifty years after 1900, doubled again in the ten years between 1950 and 1960, and will double again in the seven years between 1960 and 1967. Almost 90 per cent of the scientists which the world has ever pro- duced are still alive today. "Some years ago, I compared my daughter's high school group with my contemporaries of the 20's, and judging by any values I was able to think of, her group was superior to mine. "They had a far deeper sense of responsibility for. themselves, a greater respect for the dignity and worth of the individual, and a willingness to involve them- selves in the affairs of their school, community, country and the world. "Rather than choosing the safe and conservative, silent position as we did, your gen- eration is willing to §tand up and be counted. "In time you will become doc- tors, lawyers, engineers, scien- tists, businessmen, teachers and housewives, What we can do for you will be of no lasting impor- tance if we have not taught you that citizenship comes first to- ALD. ATTERSLEY Will Run In Aldermanic Ald. Gordon Attersley today confirmed he will 'un for alder- man in the Dec. 7 city election. Speculation that he might run for mayor formed when he re- vealed several weeks ago he would run for office, but re- fused to specify a position. Ald, Attersley ran third to incumbent Mayor Lyman Gif- ford and Walter lane, a former city alderman, in the 1958 Trustee Stephen G, Saywell of the Board of Education told the grads and undergrads of '|Donevan Collegiate last night 0: "Be masters of your fate." As guest speaker at Done- van's annual commencement exercises, Mr. Saywell advised to practise self- disclipline, and to learn to say "No" to things in life that "do not count-on the way to your objective'. He also suggested that they take more positive steps in making full use of their time. Many people, he said, spend a good part of the present worrying about the past and the future, The price of success in the future is expensive, he pointed out: "The easy way is usually the wrong way." "The key positions in the fu- ture will go to the young people S.G. Saywell Guest Speaker of today who approach life on their own with ambition, energy and enterprise. "Ambition makes people dis- satisfied with the present level, and supplies the energy to make the effort (to change things). Mr. Saywell quoted the as- cendence of Abraham Lincoln from log cabin to President as an instance of ambition at work, "Youth today should not be satisfied with a segment of life, no matter how much security} it proffers, when, by a better effort and enterprise, they can trace the complete circle." He further reminded the stu- dents of their obligations and duties to the community and country, and quoted the late President of the United States, John F, Kennedy: "Ask not what your country can do for you, but rather what you ¢an do for your country."

Wandless, city planning director, said Thursday night the planning board should im- press upon citizens the impor- tance of checking zoning before they buy a home. ; During aboard meeting, Mr. Wandless suggested a recom- mendation, regarding zoning, be made to the Oshawa and Dis- trict Real Estate Board. In the offer to purchase agree- ment, he said, a clause could be added telling a prospective home-buyer he should check the zoning of his own land and of land in his area, at city hall, be- fore buying. Paul Ristow, a Real Estate Board observer to the planning board, said the suggestion had a lot of merit. He said he was sure realtors would be interest- ed in the recommendation.
