TM JOHN GOODAL More than 16,000 persons visited the auto museum in Oshawa last year. Have you visited the museum and do you think it is a valuable asset in the city? Six people were asked this question during a man-on-the- street survey. They said: Gennet Vezina, 161 Maple, Whitby: "No, I have never been there but I have often thought of visiting it.

Private Broadcasters Brief Presented To Committee By TOM MITCHELL OTTAWA (CP) Private broadcasters made a pitch to MPs Monday for lowered Cana- dian content on television and a way for stations to contest dis- ciplinary action before an im- partial bench. The Canadian Association of Broadcasters, representing Show Train Starts Tour VICTORIA (CP)--With a call for Canadians to draw faith from the past to meet the chal- lenges of the future, State Sec- retary Judy LaMarsh Monday officially declared open the 15- car Confederation train. Following the opening cere- mony, the public was admitted for the first time to tour the six exhibit - laden railway coaches which present, in a series of time - tunnel impressions, the pre-history of Canada up to the nation's tomorrow. Premier W. A. C. Bennett of British Columbia, scheduled to attend, was delayed in New York on a trip to obtain a $50,- 000,000 loan needed for current power projects. ™n her speech to more .than 1,000 persons, Miss LaMarsh »yredicted Canadians would get more than just enjoyment from the $1,500,000 Confederation train.

Then its representatives spent! about 90 minutes fielding ques-| tions from MPs. | The CAB brief was on the} government white paper brough own . last summer which outlhed in general terms changes to be made in broad- casting regulations. The white paper forecast a Board of Broadcast Governors with stronger watchdog powers ovér the industry. The CAB agreed the BBG should regulate broadcast- ing and supported the white paper suggestion to increase full-time BBG membership to five from three. But it questioned the wisdom of putting one body in charge of writing regulations, enforc- ing them, deciding whose they are broken and levying fines or other punitive action. The only appeal to the court in such cases is on questions of law, not fact, the association added. It suggested a_ procedure whereby both parties could pre- sent their case to a neutral body. Jean Pouliot of Quebec, CAB president, said in reply to ques- tions from Don Jamieson (L-- Burin - Burges, a broadcaster and former CAB president, that the present system has worked "reasonably well.' Lewis Brand (PC--Saskatoon) asked whether the CAB feels the regulation that TV stations have a minimum of 55 per cent content in program- eration: train, Canad sea to sea will find a graphic summary not only of the first hundred years of Confederation but indeed of the years, yes centuries, which came before our union."

(CP)--Thelma Marie Goldrick, 24 - year - old Strathroy, Ont., mother of two, was formally charged Monday with infanticide in connection with the discovery of a baby's body in a plastic garbage bag last Dec. 22. Mrs. Goldrick, who appeared in court here, also was charged with attempting to conceal the birth of a child. Mrs. Goldrick was arrested Monday immediately: after she was released from Middlesex General Hospital and remanded without plea to Jan. 17. Bail was set at $1,000.
