PAGE 14,THURSDAY, AUGUST 9,1973,,WHITBY FREE PRESS CONSTRUCTION SAFETT PROGRAM TO BE UNDERTAKEN BY ONT. GOVT. An extensive information program will be carried out by the Ontario Ministry of Labour to explain the new Construction Safety Act and its regulations, said Labour Minister Fern Guindon. "The program wiil be aimed primarily at the 23,000 employees in the construction industry," he said. "We want to make sure that every person employed in the industry is aware of the provisions of the new act. Mr. Guindon said the new legislation, passed during the last session of the Legislature, will form an effective base upon which an accident prevention program for protecting workmen in the construction industry in Ontario will be carried out. Under the new Act, the responsibility for construction safety inspections will be transferred from the municipal- ities to the province, effective August 1. The Bill establishes clearly the parameters within which enforce- ment will take place and specifically defines the duties, responsibilities, powers, rights and penalties applicable to all persons associated with construction projects. Mr. Guindon said the informational project would include an advertising and communications program, pamphlets, a speaker's panel, as well as construction site visits conducted by construction safety officers. He said the branch has already added 45 new construct- ion safety officers to improve the inspection services throughout the province, and more will be interviewed in the next two weeks. Many of the officers were recruited from the municipalities that previously conducted safety inspections. Keith Cleverdon, Director of the Construction Safety Branch, said the prime aim of the program is to standardize the inspection service so that the same procedures would be carried out in ail parts of the province. An intensive training program to familiarize the new inspectors will ail phases of the new Act and methods of inspection is currently being held in Toronto. "We want to make sure that ail inspectors know the provisions of the Act and interpret them in the same way," he said. "Uniformity will be essential in ail inspection processes." He said the branch plans to develop an efficient mobile staff that can deal with any type of situation or construction project. Each of six regions of the province will have a regional engineer, supervisors and a team of inspectors. District offices will be established in Thunder Bay, Sudbury, Kitchener, Hamilton, Toronto, Kingston, Ottawa, London and Windsor, in addition to the head office in Toronto. Mr. Cleverdon said the new inspectors would provide full information on The Construction Safety Act for the contractors and for the employers. While they are on construction sites they will make sure that ail the charges from the previous legislation are thoroughly explained.

MISS NU DE WORLD Continuéd from page 2, Being my third beauty contest in as many weeks, and since at the last one (Miss County Town Carnival) I picked the winner before the contest, I decided not to push my luck and refrained from trying to pick the winner at this one. Actually I think I was just rational- izing because trying to choose the fairest from ail those fair damsels would indeed have been a difficult decision, and I certainly didn't envy the judges their task. The ceremonies were quite elaborate and presented very tastefully with no'hint of any 'bump and grind' strip show type showmanship. The intermission held in the mid - afternoon gave everybody a break and enabled the press to meet and speak with the ladies in the contest. The entrants seemed different from the usual egotistical, self - centered "I am the most beautiful of ail" types quite often found in beauty contests. These girls were more realistic, more down - to - earth, more (I hate to use this word for f- ear of the pun) NATURAL. The girls i talked to seemed to radiate a certain secureness, not embellished with expensive or far - out or sexy clothes. They had no crutches to hide or show off their physical attributes, or shortcomings. No too small or push - up bikini tops to make an average girl look big busted as was seen in a recent contest, just flesh and bones and personality to carry them through. Neither age nor marital status mattered, but then why should it? Why should a beauty contest be limited to single teeny - boppers? Anyway, after narrowing the contestants down to sixteen, the judges finally decided No 1 - ninteen year old Dee Dee Nolet, a typist from Colton, California would take top honours. Dee Dee is 5' 10" 118 pounds measures 36 - 24 - 36 has brown hair, brown eyes and is brown all over. She wins prizes worth $8,500. Miss Nude Ontario, Madia Bottai and twenty - one year old Cheryl Escarra of Pittsburgh were the runners - up. 110 BROCK ST. N.
