"BOOBY-TRAP" TREATS Reports of "Booby - Trap" treats during Hallowe'en have come in from most places in Ontario County, & Port Perry and area are no different. At both R. H. Cornish Pub- lic School and Reach No. 1. Consolidated School, Prince Albert these incidents of sadism have occurred. Teachers at the schools have checked all the lunches of the pupils and found four apples with razor blades, one apple with needles and some candy kisses with needles. One young girl became ill from eating chips with some type of chemical on them. FIREMEN KEPT BUSY The local firemen were kept busy for several hours extinguishing small fires, turning off hydrants, ete. A couple of the benches placed around town were set on fire, so was the new bul- letin board in front of the Post Office, as well as the old judges stand at the race track. No sooner would -the fire- men have turned off a hyd- rant before they were called to another spouting water all over the street. This went on for more than two hours, and the fire trucks were kept busy driving from one hyd- rant to another, turning the water off. information| At Rest STRONG, Robert Henry-- Entered into rest at family residence 1174 Sommerville Ave., Oshawa on Tuesday, November 5th, 1968, Robert Henry Strong, beloved hus- band -of Greta Solomon fath- er of Harold, Bowmanville, Gerald of Oshawa, brother of Mrs. M.

Sneaker Explains Fifect [+ Of Drugs And Narcotics John Powell, Sergeant of Detectives of the Oshawa Po- lice Department made a strong and lasting impression on some 30 members of the Lions Club, a number of tea: chers from both Public and High Schools as well as a few students from the High Schools while a speaker at the regular meeting of the club, Monday. Mr. Powell had chosen as his topic, "Drugs and Nar- cotics", and for a man who has witnessed the drama, the horrors, and crimes from the use of drugs and narcotics, he appeared an unusually 'mild-mannered person. However, it was obvious that what he had seen and experienced for 23 years while on the Oshawa Police Department had made him convinced the only way of stamping out the horrible crimes of selling or using narcotics is to enforce the law. He delivered a most inter- esting message, and did it with a solid background of knowledge, and what he told the attentive listeners was delivered with the intention not to forget what terrible consequences could be the result: of "only trying it once." : His speech, the film shown. and the question period af- terwards deserve large audi- ences. It was educational, while terrifying, but possibly the best method of making people understand this 20th century demoralizing and filthy habit would be to show films such as was shown on Monday night, in everyl school, club and organization throughout Canada. Mr. Powell's speech de- serves a great deal more space in the columns of the Star, but unfortunately space is limited. Mr. Powell was introduced by Stan Mumford and the club's appreciation was. ex- tended by Wm. Sharpe.
