Aldwinckle was re-elected president of the Oshawa Folk Festival at a meeting - dinner and dance Saturday night at St. Hedwig's church hall. Vice-presidents are from left: Ald. John DeHart, Frank M. Smith and A. James Allen. Approximate- ly 65 persons attended the social event which closed Folk Festival activities for 1967. Mrs. Aldwinckle told the crowd the Oshawa Folk Festival could become a major tourist attraction if it were given "the right promotion." 'Although we can't expect to get the DINNER-MEETING, same support from city council as we did in 1967, it cannot overlook the fact that the Folk Festival can attract people to Oshawa," ste said. The Folk Festival approved a motion Satur- day night to establish mem- bership fees. "This would give members voting privil- DANCE eges and the Folk Festiva] would become a member of the Ontario Folk Art Council," said Mrs. Ald- winckle. She has held her present. post since the Folk" Festival's inception in 1960 except in 1966 when Jan Drygala was president. --Oshawa Times Photo DR.

Dr. William A. Drucker, sur- geon-in-chief at Toronto General Hospital, said Saturday that x- rays and hospital records showed that the spine of truck driver Bertrand Proulx, operat- ed on by Dr. Murray, had not been shortened by removal of a vertebra. At a dinner Noy. 14 of the To- ronto East General Hospital Re- search Foundation, the 73-year- old Dr. Murray described an op- eration to remove the damaged section of a spinal cord and re- join it. He explained that if a seg- ment of the cord is actually cut out, then part of the bony spinal column must be removed to allow the ends of the shortened cord to meet. After his talk, Mr. Proulx, a 24-year-old paraplegic paralysed in a car accident. four years ago, was wheeled in, pulled himself to sitting position in bed and stood beside it with the aid of a walker.

It was worked out at a three- hour Saturday meeting here be- tween leading members of both groups. The formula calls for joint meetings to draft a new constitution, followed by further meetings to iron out policy mat- ters. -- The two The third step would be a na- tional convention to choose a leader and a national executive who would work to repair the movement's declining fortunes. First joint meetings would be held early next year.

MAY REUNITE Herbert Bruch, president of the Social Credit, was less defi- nite on timing, but told report- New Enthusiasm Marks PC Party In Alberta By KORKY KOROLUK EDMONTON (CP) The Progressive Conservative party, for years almost dormant in Al- berta, today faces the problem of maintaining the enthusiasm which has gripped it for aimost three years. The enthusiasm, generated by party leader Peter Lougheed, reached a high point during the spring election when the party won six seats and became the official opposition to the Social Credit government. At its annual convention which ended Sunday, the party also had its new national leader on show and the enthusiasm al- most became an _ embarrass- ment. ': One miscalculation was the banquet Saturday night at which national leader Robert Stanfield spoke. Organizers expected fewer than 600 persons, but so many tickets were sold that a second banquet hall was opened to ac- commodate the overflow. Even then, about 25 persons were seat- ed at tables in the hall outside he doors. ' A spokesman for the hotel where the convention was held said 1,035 meals were served.

Mr. Bruch said he has the full endorsation of the party's nation- al council and the party associa- tions in the two western prov- inces for the unity move. Both Social Credit and the Creditistes were fully agreed on the neces- sity for maintaining a single, united nation as opposed to a separate Quebec. If there was any fly in the unity ointment, it was the fail- ure of any Social Credit MP to show up for the meeting. Credi tiste MPs were out in force. The Social Credit absentees included A, B. Patterson, MP for Fraser Valley, who took over as party leader on a tem- porary basis following the resig- nation earlier this year of Rob- ert Thompson, MP for Red Deer. LINKS WITH CLAIM Mr. Thompson's resignation was linked with a claim that the B.C. and Alberta parties fal- tered in financial support for the national party. Later H. A. (Bud) Olson, MP for Medicine Hat, quit the party and joined the Liberals, saying Social Credit was dead nationally. The CBC program The Way It Is, on which his latest remarks were broadcast Sunday, started with an earlier filmed inter- view. He described operations in animals in which the spinal cord 'was cut and the ends brought together by taking out "enough bone of the vertebral column--the full cross-section of; the vertebral column--and we take out enough that the cord would come and touch, in appo- sition. "*nd when we did that it united. And these animals that were utterly paralysed would get up and run around again." The success with animals con- fronted him with the decision on whether to try it on humans. "But it seemed to me that these people had nothing to lose. The critical thing was, could we do it without too much danger, "WE'VE DONE SEVEN" "It's a terrific job really--it's a terribly big job. But we fi- nally tackled it and we've done seven now and they've all sur- vived, none of them are worse." Later in the interview, he said: 'The essential thing that we have proven here above all else is that the old adage that the spinal cord cannot regener- ate is not true.
