Railways which have already slashed freight rates in this area, are out to get a larger share of the auto- motive transport business to the Cana- dian West, "Besides being on the mainlines of the two national railways, both of which' directly serve General Motors, the city of Oshawa has a vital interest in the fight which is shaping up be- cause about 350 heavy transport trucks are based in Oshawa, most of which would be involved in the price cutting war, Preliminary battling over the rail: ways'-controversial-"agreed-charges" will open in Ottawa next week in ad- vance of a royal commission inquiry into the issue. Stanley Smith, spokesman for Osh- awa"s Smith Transport Co., charged today that the rail rate policy has been adopted "to kill the truckers." Mr. Smith pointed out that in a re- cent speech, president Donald Gordon 5 announced that the CNR will suffer heavy losses this year: "They are trying to take the truck- ers down with them," Mr. Smith said. Mr. Smith added that the taxpayer will bear the brunt of. any losses suf- fered by Canadian forhire truck firms, first because through loss of corpora- tion tax revenue which normally comes from the trucking industry, The present rate war, he warned, "could lead to wholesale unemploy- ment among truckers," Frank McCallum, president of Me- Callum Transport, is in Ottawa. He could not be reached today for com- ment. -"Sharp rail freight reductions went into effect Tuesday on the heavy-vol- ume route--latest in a succession of cuts by the rivals--and president G. M. Parke of the Canadian Trucking : Assoiations said they average 36 per cent. The Toronto highway transport ex- ecutive, chief spokesman for the $200,- 000,000-a-year for-hire trucking in- dustry, said in a statement here that a rate war is on and predicted its con- tinuance will lead to an "economic de- bacle." Meanwhile, other informants in the trucking industry said road operators won't be able to match the full amount of rail rate cuts without courting bankruptcy but will try to bring rates down on a restricted scale, © 'REMEMBER T0 CHANGE YOUR CLOCK FOR STANDARD TIME ON SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25th Coronation T. and F. Club of Port Perry 'Win 22 Awards at Shamrock Meet ; Highlighted by the efforts of Bill( Gibson and Ruby Leask our local Cor- onation Track-and Field Club of Port Perry made a very impressive show- ing at the Oshawa Shamrock Meet, Saturday. Finishing second with a total of 80 points to the Shamrock's 110% points. (Whitby -H.S. with 62 Fand Bowmanville T.C. with 86 points) the Port Perry athletes brought hone twenty-two small medals and' two large trophies, Bill. Gibson Wins Open 100 Speedy Bill Gibson raced to a clean- cut victory in the open 100 yard dash in what was recorded as 10.6 beating Bryan Gibson of Whitby who was clocked at 10.5 seconds at the C.N.E. Bill won the 100 yards not long after he fought Kovak to the finish of the 440 open--Bill being a good second in this event. For triumph in the open 100 yards, Bill received the lovely W. Harnden Trophy. The only other event Bill entered was the open broad jump where he got away with a 19 ft., 8 inch jump which was good enough to win easily had he not fouled. Ruby Leask Wins Bud Pipher Trophy Ruby Leask came second to Miss Kilpatrick of Bowmanville in the open 756 yards and then went on to edge her Bowmanville rival in a tremendous high jumping duel and tie her rival for total points for the Bud Pipher Trophy for open girls competition, In view of the fact that Miss Kilpatrick had won the trophy for several-con- secutive years, this year Ruby Leask was the recipient and a most deserved one, Along with this accomplishment Ruby set a new Port Perry Track Re- cord as she high jumped 4 feet 3 ins. and was a big factor in our Club's: winning the open girls 440 relay with a time of 60.2 seconds. Others Outstanding Good for only a second place medal but possibly the most outstanding event of the day from Coronation standpoint was a broad jump of 13- year-old Sharon Haugen... Sharon leaped 14 feet 6 inches which bests her previous mark by 11 inches and gives her another record this time in the Junior girls, (In fact this is by far the best broad jump record we can find for a Port Perry girl athlete of any age--if any others are available our club will be glad to recognize them.) Bob Carnegie, -aged 16, competed in the open high. jump (the: only one for which he was eligible) and cleared 6 feet 1% inches, good for third medal --{first place going to Mozewsky (2 year's University: experience and the other a senior high school student of Oshawa.)
