ORONO WEEKLY TIMES,_TjIURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13th,1969 Alex Carruithers, MPP., Durham on 'Tuesdlay, February 4tli the s"nn -sssion of the 28th LIegis- latýure of Ontario resumed after areces .s extending from Decem- ber 2ffth. The healthy tans, dis- playý.ed b)y a number of the mem- b)ers attested to the fact that they Ihad availed themselves of the op- portunity to bask under the sun- ny skies of Florida, Bermuda, the West Indies, and even California, duringp the Christmas recess. Thle heat of lafe June or JuIy will be feit before the present session finalizes what appears to be an agenda of significaxit le- isiation coupl wit a budclget, wýhich unless Ottawa reviewý,s its presenf day* tax sharing- policy, may prove to be one that will commiand the serious considera- lion of not only the members of the Legisiafure, but fthc taxpay- ers of the province as well. With approximately fhirty some speakers still to bce heard, priority is being given, at the present time, to complet ing the Throne Debaf e and processing the privafe members bills and res- olutions on the order paper. The past week had particular significance for Durham County with the canceilation on Friday last of the proposefi Lakeshore Racewýay project by Mr.' John Basset. The raceway which has been a controversial issue at City Hall for thec past months involved the runlingu of f wo 'major auto races along Lake Shore Boulevard, and throughI the Canadian National Exhibition grounds. As 1I menfioned in a previous report, the project would have had11 a very serious effeet on the Mosport track and the economy of Clarke Towýnship).

Basset's announcement Dr. Shulman withdrew bis Bill. The public o' ttery against the proposed raceway together wifh the n ýgotiations that went on be- hind flie scenes, must bave finally convinced the sponsors. and City Council that, to assumne responsi- bîlity for the raceway, could re- suit in legai cQmplications. Com- mon -ense appears to have pre- vailed and now, everyone can breathe casier. On Thursday last memb"ýrs of tlic Standing Commnittee on Health turned out in full force to hear charges, made carlier ho the, House by Dr. Shulman, thaf conditions at the Ontario Hospit- ai in Brockville warranted, en in- vestigation. Dr. Shulman charged immoral practices on the part of hosuif ai personnel, and patients, a Iack of care for patients, and a number of incidents of improper actions in the liospital. Dr. Shulman's charges were based on a letter receivedl by him from Dr. J. W. Muliner, a general physician at the hospital. As verification for his charges, 'Dr. Muliner submitt- ed fifteen names of personnel who lie said were prepared to testify. Dr. Potter,, Chairman of flic Hcalth, Committee, contacted Dr. Mullner and the fiffeen individ- uals by letter r-/luesting them to appear before the Committee on the above date. In their replies to the invita. tion the fiffeen members of the- liospital staff stated, that they did- not know Dr. Shulman nor liad they ever been in, contact with him. Dr. Muliner, Who did not appear for the hearing as well, replied, stating that condi- tions at the hospital had improv- ced greatly and that a hcaring was now ýno longeri necessary. Members of the Comfittee, however, thouglit otlierwise, and voted,, to subpoena the fifteen staff members and Dr. Mulîner. In the opinion of the Committec the charges, which reflected ser- iously on the medical and nurs- ing profession,, must eithev be substantiated or withdrawn. Thus euded another chapter in the con- troversial life of Dr. Shulman wîth the second chapter sehedul- ed for Thursday Fcbruary 13tli Kendal News The big attraction on the ski hlis west of Kendal on Saturday February 8, 1969 was flic arrivai of Nancy Green.
