@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, February 2, 1965 MY DEAR MR. CHURCHILL Sir Winston Cried Watching War Film EDITOR'S NOTE: The fol- lowing is the seventh of a ser- ies of articles taken from the forthcoming book, 'My Dear Mr., Churchill", by Walter Graebner, an American writ- er who was closely. associat- ed with Sir Winston Churchill in the post-war years. Every Sunday night, except on fine summer evenings, movies were shown at Chartwell, in a ttle theatre in the back part of he house. Churchill got enormous pleasure from them. He paid the strictest attention every minute and demanded absolute silence from the rest of the audience, though he reserved the right to give a running commentary if he chose, and to ask questions when- ever a part was not clear. One Sunday in 1949 we took five episodes of the March of Time's "Crusade in Europe', a docu- mentary film on World War Il, down to Churchill. Churchill lov- usual method of consumption|turned from a walk or journey, gave the impression that he prac- tically never stopped drinking ex- cept when asleep. His system.was to linger over each drink for hours, amd he therefore could nearly always be found with a giass no more than an arm's length away. He usually had a drink brought te him an hour or so after break- fast. This was fairly weak, and would Jast until about lunch time. At lunch he drank. champagne, port and brandy. After lunch, at about 4, he would order another whiskey and soda, which would keep him going until time for his nap. Dinner was a repetition of his lunch, and he would call for |his first drink in the evening a- jround 10 or 11, depending on | when dinner ended. He would |probably have a second whiskey |before retiring for the night at 1, |2 or 3. a.m. I never once saw him | slippers, so forth until bedtime, VALETS Each valet lasted only about a year, with the exception of one, Sawyers, a short, quiet, edly devoted to Churchill, easy. He expected his valet et he rang for him, and if there was any delay he shouted.

The job was difficult, the hours too long (Churchill insisted on a seven- day week) to hold any one much longer. The valets were undoubt- al- though life with him, in addition to long hours, was often far from to |appear within a few seconds aft- |pouring his own drink.

The Whitby Mercantile Hockey League came within two minutes and 15 sec- onds of having a four-way tie for first place at the end of its 15-game schedule. Ottenbrites with a power play goal won 'first place in the Jeague standings. Their goal- tender, Lorne Campbell, looks like he may win the Goaltender Trophy by one lone goal. So we have had a very close finish this season, Next week, playoffs. Kelly-Disney defeated Royal Hotel 8-4 in the first game which would have given them first place if a four-way tie had developed. Ottenbrites Men's Wear and Arena Sunoco played to a 4-4 tie. Al MacDonald had three goals for the hat trick for the Kelly- Disney club. Bob O'Brien, and Elmer Tran had a pair each while Terry Davis completed the Disney scoring with a single. Jim Christie with two and Mel Brown and Bill Townsend with singles helped the Royal cause. Grant Wright for the Royal club played outstanding goal, making some unbelievable saves in their Red Cross Society Sets Blitz Date BOWMANVILLE (Staff)--The Canadian Red Cross Society will conduct a blitz for funds in Bow- manville on March 10, in the afternoon and evening. ; Town council also gave ap- Change In Use Bylaw proyal for the uses of the coun- : cil chambers for ca BOWMANVILLE = (Staff) -- Cross Bowmanville Town Council, rg gesagt net et the Monday night, referred a recom-| week priot to the blitz. mendation from the planning INTERESTED IN MAP i board limiting the erection of kg lagi apartment buildings ~ to» the Council will write to : Board of Works\Committee, [al Lake Ontario Conservati The recommendation from the| Authority expressing interest board suggested an. amendment| Purchasing a large scale map-of to Bylaw 1587 be made in Sec-|'he area. tion 9A(1) under the heading of|TO BUY CRUISER "Permitted Uses" in a residen-| The Police Committee was tial zone to possibly read thus: |authorizec to call tenders for a --Single and two family dwell-|new poiice cruiser. ; ings and duplex or double du-/ TAKES SEAT 2 plex apartment houses and] Maurice Prout took his place multi-family dwellings except in|on counci!

Regard- less of this the teachers played - @ strong game and it was ob- vious that they would win from the start. Many students sus- pected a bit of foul play when evenywhere they looked there seemed to be a Mr. Yamamura . . - or two. So, in future col- called "Flash Yamamura". During the course of the game there were numerous collisions between the opposing sides. The only injury was to Tom Dines who slid across the floor after tripping over Mr. Yamamura. As a result the officials called a foul against Tom who contin- ued playing later. INTRAMURAL GAMES Unlike other intramural bas- ketball games this one boasted a good turnout of student spec- tators.

On his return one year Pickering Rotary Civic Night' Held PICKERING (Staff) -- 'The all important question pertinent to men everywhere is not where but when civilization be- gan," said Rotarian A. George Rodgers of Oshawa at a Pick- ering Rotary Club Civic Appre- ciation Dinner Monday night. "Civilization surely is our emergence from barbarism and yet this century was the most murderous and possibly the most barbarous of all time. Two! world wars, two global grave- yards, 63,000,000 lives snuffed out." "The human race will be extinct or nearly so by 1985" uoted Mr. Rodgers. "This is sober conviction in one of the citadels of learning in the United States. On polling college students for their faith in the future of this panic stricken planet, they predicted their pes- simistic, self inflicted, demise the premise that nearly all would be dead from radiation by the age of 45." 'Whether we find this attitude amusing or disturbing, we can- not lightly dismiss the opinions of our young people today. After all, half the world's population is under 20 years of age." SPEED INCREASED "In the past 150 years mor- tal man has increased his speed from 25 to 25,000 mph. This constituted confirmation of the nearly verticle acceleration of man's acqusition of knowledge in the past century which is fantastic as it is incomparable." "But why this race into space?
