Q@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tussdey, November 24, 1964 GOOD -EVENING _ By JACK GEARIN _- ALD. BRANCH BOWS FROM ALDERMANIC RACE Oshawa's City Council will certainly look strange next year with the three - man 1962 Finance committee missing intact. The unexpected decision last Friday of Alderman Walter Branch to drop from the race some 24 hours after he had indicated he would run provided one of the highlights of the campaign to date. He had been preceded into retirement by two fellow-committee members earlier, Alderman Finley Dafoe (the Council's elder statesman in point of service who has heen elected representative constantly since 1938 with the exception of four years); and Alderman Thomas M. Run- die, who had completed his first two years as an alderman. Mr. Branch will be missed and few councillors can match his on-Council service record in regards to the number of important committee posts held; not only has he held down the all-important chairmanship of Finance during the past two years, he was formerly chairman of the Board of Works committee for five years (which administration placed him directiy over the City Engineering Department and Board of Works Yard). Mr. Branch, the 59-year-old personnel manager of Fit- tings Ltd., also held down two other posts during the past few months which were both time-consuming and important. He was chairman of the five-man Civic Auditorium commit- tee (which supervised construction of the $1,200,000 Civic Auditorium) and he was a member of the joint committee of City Council and the Ontario County Council which super- vised construction of the $1,200,000 County Courthouse and Administration building in Whitby. Mr. Branch gave health reasons as the prime purpose .of his retirement after serving eight years as an alderman, He finished second in the last two aldermanic races and was constantly reported to be ready to toss his hat in the mayor- alty race. inations tely quali- ted by immedi more are expected to qualify before the deadline at 9 p.m. today. peared twice on the nomination had nominated the high school board trustee by the same name as the present mayor. As a board member he would be unable to qualify. A small showing of town people turned up at the nomin- ation, especially council had approved the two- year term of office recently. Residents returned to council by acclamation are Mayor Harry Smith and Deputy Reeve J. G. Hall. It is Mr. Hall's. second acclamation. Only one present councillor, W. B. Robertson, a member for four years and with the town planning board for 10 years, failed to qualify. It was known that Mr. Robertson would not {be running due to business | pressure.

Only between 50 and 75 peo- ple turned out to the nomina- tions at the council 'chambers. It was suggested -that the set- tling of the arena questiog had something to do with the poor turnout which can only indicate replaced by the legislation now before the Com- 'mons.
