Interment Park Lawn Cemetery. Anglican Notes By Mary Becker The first of two Week of Prayer Services was held in the Church of the Ascension Monday evening, Jan. - 4th, with Mr, Perry of.the Presby- terian Church giving the address. The second joint service to be held by the local churches this week will take place tomorrow (Friday) evening in the United Church, at 8 p.m., with Mr. Fuller preaching, 3 A new plan for the operation of our church will be presented at thé forth- coming Vestry Meeting. Members of the parish will be asked to apptove of the setting up of a Board of Man- agement to replace the existing Ad- visory Board. Such a change would mean that the Board would have au- thority to make decisions and take action on behalf of the parishioners it represents, rather than just acting in an advisory capacity. In the past, the two wardens have assumed full responsibility for the business opera- tions of the church and it is felt that a larger number should "carry this load. The Board of Management would consist of the two Wardens, the two Lay Delegates and six more mem- bers, three to be elected by the Ves- try and three to be appointed by the Rector. The Rector would complete the eleven-member Board. No mem- ber could serve more than 5 consecu- tive years. ,. The Evening Guild held its first ¢ meeting of the new year on Monday evening, January 4th, following the Week of Prayer service. The presi- dent, Mrs. Becker, was in the chair and Minutes were read by the secre- tary, Mrs. Porter. The treasurer, Miss Jarett, gave her report of pre- sent financial standing and also gave a summary of the group's financial operations during 1969. It was decided that each member would be asked to raise at least two dollars by her own talents during the next two months.

This Bulletin Secretary would Be expected to collect and edit the news of the parish, type the stencil, run off the bulletin on the mimeo- graph and address it. There are to be ten bulletins issued 'during the year (none in July and August). For this work the Wardens would arrange a payment of $60. per annum.

Mrs. Marguerite Chatterley claims there was a deliberate and improper attempt to prevent her from being nominated and says she will take court action to obtain a council seat in this town 20 miles northeast of Toronto. Clerk-treasurer Delmas Long said he does not remember receiving Mrs. Chatterly's nomination paper. Said Mr. Hall: "A peculiar situation seems to ex- ist, and it would appear that some- body did destroy the paper but our problem is to prove that the paper wag destroyed with wilful and mali- cious intent."

Ltd, YU 65-2881 PORT PERRY phany, January 6th, Mr, Fuller at- a a re it PICKERING--We } heard of a very touching story last week through Mrs. G. Crichton, 'President of the Pickering Township, and Yillage Red oe learned that there are over 50 = | veterans at the Ontario Hospital, Whitby, who have not had a visitor since they came out of the First World War in 1918, This means no visitors in 41 years, The Red Cross heard about' these men and decided to do something a- bout it. Branches, here at Ajax and Whitby got together and made up Christmas boxes for these men. Each box contained 6 chocolate bars, cigar- ettes, mints and playing cards. The most important part of the story, is the fact that these women are planning to make visits to these men, or at least to those it is possible to visit. It seems incredible that behind the walls of that hospital, only 6 miles away, there are all those men, who have never had anyone come to see them for close to half a lifetime. We say hats off to the Red Cross branches for doing something about this situation, 2 Bowmanville Boys Still Missing TORONTO---Only two of the 176 boys allowed to go home for Christ- mas from the Bowmanville Training School have failed to return, Reforms Minister Wardrope said Tuesday. "It wad a wonderful record and our trust has not been misplaced," he said, Last year four boys had not shown up by the end of the holidays but all were later accounted for. The de- partment expects no trouble in find-! ing the two missing boys, Of 83 girls released from the Galt institution, only one did not return. She was picked up in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont. At both schools the holiday was from Dec. 21 to Jan, 2. Inquest Into Harhour Deaths An inquest has been ordered con- cerning the triple fatality, Dec. 15, in the Oshawa harbor.' Harvey Rowe, 51, Arlene Wallis 15, and her sister, Judith Wallis, 16, all of Port Perry, died when the car in which they were riding, careened off the dock into the icy water. Crown Attorney Alec C. Hall said the inquest would be held Thursday, Jan, 7, at 7 pm. in the court room at the Oshawa police building. A Toronto lawyer, Samuel Goldhar, has been subpoenaed to give evidence. Dr. J. A. Patterson is the coroner. Oshawa General Hospital patholo- gist, Dr. R. Clark will give evidence regarding autopsies performed on all three victims. Mara Township Names New Council Mara Twp. his two new faces on its 1960 council, following elections on Monday of this week, Earlier, a reeve and deputy-reeve had been nam- ed by acclamation, Named reeve was Erwin Cowie, last | year's deputy-reeve. The 1959 reeve, Patrick Duffy, a former warden of the county, did not let his name stand for the reeveship election, Acclaimed deputy-feeve was Char- les Healy, a member of the 1959 Coun. cil. Elected to council was one of last year's councillors, Ervie Orr, and two newcomers, James J. Murphy ana Muir Dack, Orr led the poll with 477; Murphy was second with 443; Dack was third, with 294, . Out of the running were two others, James Barnes and Peter Brodie, both with 285 votes. ' -------- Liquor Vote In Ajax Under Study AJAX--A recount of ballots cast in the November 21, liquor plebicite by His Honour, Judge M. A. Miller of Cobourg has' made little change in the result, but counsel for the vote "Yes" committee has been given time to submit written argument on the 'allowance of ballots marked other 'than a cross. Judge Miller has re- served his decision for seven days. The recount was made on two ques- tions, "Dining room licence, to serve liquor with meals", and "Cocktail lounge", which failed- to gain the ne- cessary 60 per cent by the narrow margin of 9 and 65 votes respectively. The recount has left the margin of nine votes reduced to eight on the dining room liquor licence. Kenneth Ross, counsel for the vote "Yes" committee, will now submit his written arguments regarding allow- ing ballots marked other than with a cross. Ralph Mills, QC, counsel for the vote "No" committee, will sub- mit his rebuttal of Mr. Ross's argu- ment to Judge Miller. Nearly 400 ballots were rejected in the count in November as spoiled.

After years of apparently fruitless and un- successful effort men, helped by the financial assistance of millions of peo- ple and governments, are more hopeful now, The battle has been long and some- times discouraging. It is by no means over, It is really only getting into full stride, comments The Meaford Ex- press. According to Arthur S. Fleming, U, S. Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, some 'promising new com- pounds" have been turned up in an un- dertaking in which hospitals, univer- sities research laboratories, industry and governments are participating. Progress has already been made in stopping the 'disease in some patients suffering from a rare form of cancer. A new vaccine which controls leukemia in mice gives hopes for ultimately de- veloping vaccines for the treatment and control of human cancer. Some idea of the tremendous amount of researc now going into the effort to curb the killing disease can be gleaned by the fact that today more than 40,000 substances are being tested yearly for anti-cancer projerties. Only one in a thousand is passed as being worthy to try on humans, But that infinitesimal fraction means that every year 40 more small hopes are raised death which little extent. Some day the mystery which has cloaked the cause and prevented the cure of the cancer will be solved and the disease now taking a heavy toll will, like tubertulosis, smallpox, pla- gue and diphteria, come under the con- trol of medical science and another scourage to humanity will be laid to rest. United States, spending billions of the weapons for wholesale slaughter, is providing only around $30 millions for a cause dedicted the saving of lives. -- The Canadian Statesman and the high and impenetrable wall of |. has defied the forces |; fighting cancer is weakened to that |: THE PORT PERRY STAR, THURSDAY, JANUARY 7th, 1960-8 Can. University Salaries Much Higher TORONTO. -- Indications are the flow of Canadian university profes- sors to the United States has been re- versed because salaries in this country now are higher, Studies by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics and the Canadian Associa- tion of University Teachers show that salaries at Canadian universities, slightly below United States levels five years ago, are now as much as $2,600 a year higher. "Last year 80 per cent of inquiries about job openings at one Canadian college came from Americans," Dr. J. HH. S. Reid, executive secretary of the Canadian Association of Uni- versity Teachers. 'This has certain- ly never happened before." said | WOOING THEM BACK Dr. Claude Bissell, president of the University of Toronto, said in his an- nual report last month the university was offering comparable salaries, fringe benefits and low-cost housing in an effort to woo Canadian profes- sors back from the United States. Dr. Murray Ross, president of To- he has received applications from 20 Canadian professors now teaching English in the United States. His- torians are also anxious to return but psychologists and sociologists were more difficult to find. Ralph Michener, head of the Do- minion Bureau of Statistics, said he thought that the migration had been reversed "but I can't pin it down with numbers." "U.S, salaries haven't increased as much in the past 10 years as Cana- dian salaries", he said. PAY COMPARED A CAUT survey showed the Univer- sity of Toronto pays the highest sal- aries in Canada, on a level with Har- vard, Yale and Princeton, the top- paying United States universities. Full professors at Toronto earn from $12,000 to $16,800, with the median at $13,950, Most Canadian univer- sities follow close behind while U.S. colleges tend to dip lower. Canadian university and college salaries with the U.S. figures in brackets: mod Schools with more than 500 students, professor $11,071 ($8,690-$9,930); as- sociate professor $8,343 ($7,030-87,- 290); assistant professors $6,608 ($56,- 970-$6,030); lecturers $5,249 ($4,820- $4,880).
