MER Bis. 0s I aaa snails ? Freezing Rain Turns Province Into Rink By THE CANADIAN PRESS _ ' ' Scores of minor et pedestrian injuries and at 'one traffic: death were blamed on freezing rain that swept 'across central and western On- tario Tuesday and today. ; Penny Susan Wyhs, 21, of "Toronto, was killed when hit by 'a skidding truck on Toronto's 'Frederick Gardiner Express- way. Mrs. Wyhs was standing 'in the median of the road while her husband talked to a driver of another car about a minor accident, ' The Gardiner Express way was blocked off for two hours as a result of a rash of minor accidents. One involved nine cars. : The Queen Elizabeth Way 'near Toronto was also blocked off for about half an hour by pile-ups. One accident between Highway 10 and Highway 27 in- volved 12 cars and another had five cars. In Toronto, there were 60 many accidents, police. officers could not investigate minor ones. Drivers involved in minor mishaps were told to call back today. BLOCK ROAD Police on Highway 6, near Caledonia, south of Hamilton, said tractor-trailer trucks were blocking the road by jack-knif- ing. The Burlington Skyway Bridge just outside Hamilton was closed at least three times during Tuesday evening as ac- cidents caused traffic jams. Hospitals in both Toronto an Hamilton reported a heavy run on their emergency and x-ray wards as pedestrians with bro- ken limbs came in for attention. Most said they fell on slippery sidewalks. In Toronto, taxis were almost impossible to come by as com- panies either took their cars off the road or struggled to make up the back log of phone calls. About 200 Air Canada passen- gers were left stranded as flights between Toronto Interna- tional Airport and New York and Chicago were grounded. Earlier Tuesday, the storm whipped across western Ontario.

The storm dumped 10 inches of snow on Rome in 16 hours. 4 The snow turned to shin-deep slush today but with temper- atures hovering around the freezing point, the Italian cap- ital was still partially immob- ilized. Seven days of snowstorms and coid claimed 30 lives in Turkey. Fourteen persons died in two avalanches in eastern Turkey, most of the other deaths occurred in the west. One of the avalanches buried a home occupied by eight per- sons. Ankara's international airport was closed until further notice. In Grecceé, eight persons died in a two-day cold wave that Rain, Snow, Sleet Rake 40 States CHICAGO (AP)--Rain, sleet, snow, fog and destructive winds raked 40 states, leaving at least five dead and seven injured, wrecked homes, and murky flood waters. Precipitation fell in 40 states Tuesday, omitting only New England, California and Flor- ida. Tornadoes hit southern Arkan- sas, injuring at least seven per- sons and wrecking buildings.

Heavy snowfalls blocked roads on the Bulgarian and Yugoslavia borders. HIT POLAND Blizzards ranged across lange areas of central and eastern Poland and. snowdrifts up to seven feet blocked rural roads. In the Italian adriatic port of Pescala, a Greek freighter snapped its dockside moorings in strong wind and ran on to a shoal. Two deaths in Rome were blamed on the weather. One man died of cold in his un- heated home and another was stricken on a bus over-crowded because of limited service. The capital does not have a municipai snowplow because snow is so rare. The last record for blizzards was set in 1796 and there have been only three snowfalls of note since then-- in 1846, 1939 and 1956. Snow piled up in drifts on train tracks and trains could not .reach Rome's central ter- minal. Traffic was routed to two small terminals on the city's outskirts.

However, a health ministry spokesman said a doctor is "expected" to give three months' notice. Any large walkout would bring chaos to the service. Many patients would be forced to pay for a private consulta- tion with their doctor or go to a public hospital clinic, most of which already are over- crowded. APPROVES ADDITION The uproar came when the government approved a recom- mendation to add £5,500,000 ($16,500,000) to the complicated "pool"' system from which fam- ily doctors draw their pay. The doctors' representatives, in a long series of negotiations, had sought pay increases costing a total of more than £18,000,000. Health Minister Kenneth Rob- inson said in a personal appeal plan which we consider value- less." he hopes doctors will take "a cool, calm look" at the full im- MDs Threaten Resignations ~-- plications of the award, de- signed to "improve standards and encourage better family doctoring."' The 2,500-strong practitioners association, because of its con- stitution, has a long way to go before it can head a nation- wide walkout. It has sent let- ters to all 23,000 family doctors inviting them to join the asso- ciation with the "firm intention" of resigning from the health service. However, to organizé the walkout, it must recruit 80 per cent of the doctors and then win approval by 90 per cent of the membership. NEED... FUEL OIL ?
