+ Young artist to carry NDP A thirty five year old sculptor Bill Lishman is the NDP candidate for the fede- ral elections from Ontario Riding. Lishman was nom- inated unopposed at a party meeting at Ajax last Thursday. In his speech to about 100 people at the Ajax UAW hall, Lishman said 'the New 'Democratic Party is the only vehicle left within the system capable of bringing forward the leadership and policies so necessary to solye the problems of the Cana- dian people." He blarned the problem of inflation on a lack of leader- ship, saying there is "no cohesive force pulling us together to make it work so we can afford things." Lishman said he would rely on a "fresh approach" in his campaign. Since the season was such that voters would want to be outside, Lishman felt a customary 'campaign on radio and tele- vision will not work. "What is needed," he said, "is a word of mouth telephone campaign." 1974 GLENELLE "SPRING SPECIAL GLENELLE TRAILER *2,695 Regularly Sells for $3,100 Guest speaker Ed Broad- bent, NDP member of parl- iament for Oshawa - Whitby pointed out that some of the outstanding artists of the 20th century have also been socialist thinkers. He said that artists like Albert Camus, Bertolt Brecht and Stravinsky have all contribu- ted greatly to socialist thought. He_ therefore saw no rea- son why Lishman's work as a sculptor should be a handi- cap in the campaign. It was bound to be an asset, he added. The same meeting elec- ted Al Ward as the campaign manager. Bill Lishman has been one olors in Ontario Riding * of the prime movers in the 'Peoplo-or Planes' group. He was born in Pickering town- ship and educated at the Pickering High School. He has lived all his life in this riding and has worked in steel, sash and sales areas.

Wylie will take the services again. With the adults Rev. Pogue chose a sermpn from the Old Testament. The Israelites had reached their promised land and had been led by a series of Judges who had not helped them too well. They were surrounded by the ene- mies and especially the Phil- istines from the north. They had weapons of iron which apparently might destroy the Israelites. Samuel seemed able to hold the enemy but during his leader- ship, the people demanded a king, in spite of the warnings given to them by Samuel. The conclusion for us in this study was that we are caught between the forces of power on earth and the power of God. We must serve God but also become respon- sible citizens and serve our country.
