(CP)--The removal of two foster sisters from the home here of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Timbrell opened today, and is expected to contin- ue for about five days. The Waterloo Children's Aid Society removed the two Roman Catholic sisters from the home Sept. 28. Mrs, Timbrell, an Anglican had refused to release the two sisters to the CAS because she did not want them to be adopted by separate families. Lawyer Thomas B. O'Neill of Toronto is representing the Tim- brells. His fees will be paid by the province. The CAS lawyer is G. H. Lochead of Kitchener. John G. Driscoll, a Toronto lawyer appointed commission counsel by presiding Judge Harry Waisberg, has subpoe- naed 29 witnesses. jawa in the next provincial -elec- tion. William Selby, president of the Liberal association, says Liberals would "'never consider merging at all' because of sharp divisions in political thinking between the parties. Mr. Selby's comments follow statements made last Tuesday- election day in Ontario by Rob- ert Nicol, manager of the PC election campaign in Oshawa that failed to get Albert V, Walk- er re-elected to Queen's Park. Less than one hour after Mr. Walker's defeat had been con- firmed, Mr. Nicol said the city riding is a "labor stronghold in Canada"' and the Liberal and PC parties must consider mer- ging to put down a "socialistic philosophy" of the NDP party. 'NEVER CONSIDER IT' Mr. Selby says: 'We would never consider it. Just because you lose an election doesn't mean you have to start working with the opposition. The import- ant thing is that you'll have to stick to your basic party prin- ciples. There are very sharp political divisions between the Liberals and Conservatives." Meanwhile, Ruth Bestwick, president of the PC association for Oshawa riding, said in an linterview today Mr. Nicol's con- cept was "right off the top of his head' and she has not had time to think it over. Two Arrested Robbery Case WHITBY (Staff) -- Two Whit- by residents will appear in mag- istrate's court Tuesday to face charges of robbery with vio- lence. The charges were laid Thurs- day by Det.

The south plant of General Motors of Canada now sits on the soil that he tilled. "I liked farming," he says. "My grandfather and my fa- ther were farmers in this area. Oshawa was a muddy old town when I was young," said Mr. Dearborn. He remembers when the town had one police- man and three doctors. "Peo- ple used to hitch their cows to the telegraph poll at the Four Corners," he said: Mr. Dearborn, with a crop of thick white hair, says he has no plans for the future except that he will 'keep bowling for as long as I can."
