ARCHITECT HIRED FOR NEW BUILDING Retraining Would Operate More Efficiently Under One Roof This is the second of a series of articles on the On- tario Manpower Retraining Program, formerly known as Program Five, especially as it affects Oshawa and district today.) By JACK GEARIN Staff Writer Of The Oshawa Times Planning by school boards for any major expansion today under the Ontario Manpower Retraining Program is fraught with uncertainty. This point was emphasized in a recent news story in The Osh- awa Times under the head, Architect, in which some Board of Education trustees were quoted as being openly skeptical about the Federal government's desire to finance a proposed new OMRP here. The present OMRP set-up in Oshawa is cumbersome and un- satisfactory because it operates in three separate buildings, Mc- Laughlin and Eastdale Collegi- ates and the Adult Retraining Centre on Albert St. The powers-that-be (the trus- tees and their 12-man Advisory Vocational committee, OMRP and Canada Manp )» all problems to be solved in con- nection with the proposed build- ing, including the site, but the most important one is this: Who will pay for it? The logical answer would be the Federal or Provincial gov- ernments, but the Board of Education displayed extreme caution on this matter recently. It refused to hire an architect for the centre until written as- surance was received from the Applied Arts and Technical branch, Department of Educa- tion, Toronto, that it would be ible for the architect's agree that the operation would operate more efficiently under one roof. resp fees regardless of whether a new centre was built or not, OMRP ORBIT many in the local OMRP orbit, jincluding some trustees, that the Federal government would eventually come through with the financing, Chairman Stanley E. Lovell was cautious about hiring the. architect before OMRP gave the green light. "We don't even know who is going to pay for the new centre, or if it is going to be built or not,'"' said Mr. Lovell in a frank and public appraisal of the pro- gram. He did not go un- supported and it was pointed out other Ontario boards with similar OMRP projects were in the same state of indecision. The architect is scheduled to present his plans to the Advi- the next meeting in Oct., but there is still no word from Ottawa which has not as yet specifically outlined whether - it will pay such capital expendi- tures. Supporters of the OMRP and Program Five -- which are, as one official explains, 'pretty much the same thing" -- say that Adult Retraining, of neces- sity, was in a revolutionary and experimental state before the new Federal act of last April which restricted payment of living allowance to students more drastically. These supporters admit that further changes will have to be made if the program is to reach satisfied that OMRP is now on the right rack. Changing curricula and fluctu- ating student enrollments in OMRP naturally affect the size of the teaching staff. Lee E. Evans, the former RCAF Staff College teacher, who serves as co-ordinator and principal of the OMRP here, re- cently summarized the situa- tion this way: "Such changes do impose a hardship, but there should be fewer of them in future as we iron out the kinks and I can honestly say one thing today about the quality of our teach- ing staff -- I am 95 per cent happy with it." personable executive-type, was impressed with the over-all qualifications of these teachers as a group. Three of them are retired former high school prin- cipals with Bachelor of Arts and other degrees. Emmanuel Dick from Trini- dad is a welding teacher and holds an advanced Technology Evening Class certificate, plus a teaching certificate from Man- chester University, England. He also holds a teacher's certificate 'in Ontario for Welding Theory and Practice. E. J. "Ted" Beauchamp, an Oshawa resident now employed in Toronto, was a member of the OMRP faculty here for four merly worked here as a Cone sulting Engineer, had words of praise for the local OMRP set- up. "The work atmosphere was most pleasing and challenging," he said. "The teaching pay scale was equal to that of the regular day technical courses for high schools, but the work- hours were not the best. I re- signed only because I received a much more attractive offer in Toronto." Instructional services was one of the high items on the city's OMRP bill for the first six months of 1967 and totalled $169,000. cma -- LATIONS i staff of the staurannt Prin 728-4611 Best ent of the staurant portunity to thank you for ette machines in T ROOM uling 728-0473 arr "= itshes and staff of the staurant at and Staff of DAIRY ».

The hostel, it is hoped, will help solve the problems en- countered by unemployed men, transients and alcoholics in finding food and shelter in Osh- awa. The London, Ontario, Rescue Mission is the, prototype being used for the hostel and a Lon- don staff member, Norman Drake, will be the director of the Oshawa centre. Ald. Alice Reardon, a mem- ber of the social planning coun- cil, said the hostel should solve the problem of men sleeping in apartment halls and travelling between churches and the po- Klice station for handouts. A house has been purchased for the initial site of the pro- ject, and a group of downtown churches is sponsoring a cam- paign to raise money for reno- vations and repairs. Work Ahead Of Schedule | On Simcoe Street North This year has been one of the best in Oshawa for major road reconstruction projects. Most of them will be com- pleted by the end of the fall, and the big one on Simcoe of schedule. Murdoch Robertson, city con- struction engineer, said: 'We have had a very good con- struction year. First we have Optimists Get Charter A local club of Optimist In- ternational received its charter at a banquet Saturday night at the Hotel Genosha. More than 180 Optimists, wives and guests attended the function, including Albert Walker, MPP, Ontario riding; Alderman John DeHart; Cliff Farrow, representative of the sponsoring Optimist Club | of Scarborough; Syd Gee, secre- tary-treasurer of the southern Ontario district and Lieutenant- Governor, Matt Boyd of New- market. International vice - presdient Mac McDonald presented the charter to Oshawa president Arthur J. More. Pat Rehkopf, former gover- nor of southern Ontario district, was guest speaker at the ban- quet. Objectivves of the Optimist Club, now an 85,000 member organization for men in Canada and the United States, are to promote an active interest in good government and civic af- fairs; to inspire respect for law and to promote patriotism and work for international accord and friendship among all peo- ple. been fortunate with extremely good weather, and contractors and utility companies have all co-operated very well, and we don't seem to have been held up waiting for decisions.'

Ajax Man Dies At Elliot Lake Dudley Hine, 51, of 106 Hur- ley Ave., Ajax,, died Saturday in Elliot Lake Hospital of se- vere head injuries suffered Sept. 18 when he was struck twice by an aircraft propellor at Bark Lake, 50 miles north of Elliot Lake. Mr. Hine, a guard at the Don Jail, had been on a fish- ing trip with two other Don Jail guards when the accident occurred as he attempted to pull the Beaver seaplane into shore. He was flown to St. Joseph's Hospital in Elliot Lake in the same _aircraf? His wife flew up to Elliot Lake to be with him. | which almed at The house, located at 74 King St. W., will be redesigned to hold a kitchen, dormitory and chapel. The hostel will not only provide food and shelter, but will be a rehabilitation cen- tre as well. The churches plan to pool their funds for aiding these men, rather than give it out on an individual _basis.|, Mr. Drake, along with Rev. Alvin Roth, was in Oshawa re- cently to explain the hostel pro- gram as it applied to Oshawa. Mr. Roth said, "It is not enough just to provide human storage, but you must have a rehabilitation program as well helping the whole man - physically, emo- tionally and spiritually." "After years of unemploy- ment or alcoholism, men have a poor self-image, with no con- fidence, self - respect or moti- vation. It is important that a mission provide an environment where people can relate and feel that others are taking er interest in them." The London Rescue Misson will provide the staff and pro- gram for the Oshawa _ hostel, while the city will supply the building and finances. It is hoped that the building will be ready by the end of October. The house will hold approx- imately 21 men in the first stage, as well as the two Lon- don. staff members. Mr. Drake will direct the hostel's day-to- day operations as well as the rehabilitation program. H. G, Cheeseborough, direct- or of social services for Osh- awa, said, "We've needed a hostel in Oshawa so bad in the past, the situation was almost pathetic."

Church And School Week Gets Under Way For the next week, teachers and principals in Oshawa public schools will be emphasizing the relationship between church and school. The week, from Sunday to Oct. 1, is known as "Church and School Week"' and will fea- ture the slogan "'Let's make our children church conscious." During the week, clergymen will pay special visits to the schools, posters emphasizing the importance of Sunday school at- tendance will be placed in each classroom and the children will be given cards inviting their parents to participate by send- ine their children to Sunday school. Teachers have been asked to include in the week's work as many topics as are suitable from the course of study that have a Bible theme emphasize virtues such as honesty, obedi- ence, truthfulness, tolerance and Christian principles, discuss with pupils the importance of attending Sunday school and take part in church services by acting as ushers, reading les- sons or giving the message. Commenting on the special week, R. H. Lunney, Christian Business Men's Committee, said, "Unless we are ready to accept the philosphy of the Communist world and endeavor to eliminate God entirely from our socity, we dare not over- look or underestimate the value of the church and Sunday school in shaping the lives of our young people, the leaders of tomor- row." Chairman of the Oshawa Pub- lic Schools Principals' Associa- tion, Gordon Terwillegar, said, "In these days when our people's traditional values and ideals are being vigorously questioned, the church is mak- ing a serious attempt to pro- vide a spiritual and material assistance that is relevant to our times. There is an ever- increasing desire among the churches of our community to be actively involved in promot- ing and supporting agencies and services which benefit our citi- zens, One such program receiv- ing their support is the much- needed Family Counselling Service. "T would hope that on Sunday, Oct, 1, the families of our grow- ing city will make an earnest effort to atend the church of their choice." Rev. Henry Fischer said, "Church and School Week's value does not lie in what hap- pens for seven days in Septem- ber. The real value is a life- time process. The church and the school attempts to assist young people to evaluate all their learnings and knowledge in developing their own autihen- tic personhood." Mrs, Richard A. Donald, president of the Oshawa and District Council of Home and School Associations, said, "Church and School Week should extend in our homes the entire year. I often think of the nursery rhyme, 'Mary, Mary quite contrary, how does your garden grow? The obvious an- swer is with tender loving care, removing the weeds. The same applies to parents. How do your children grow? With tender, lov- ing care and with some help in removing the weeds that grow in their minds. The church, the ~# home and the school have their . place in removing these weeds and replacing them with good seeds."
