Watson TELEPHONE 284-1767 House Numbers Important Have you ever tried to find a house in a strange neigh- bourhood at night? Oh, you'll get the street name on the post under a street light. Then you want "Number 22", but you will find only a few houses with numbers visible and hardly anv illuminated. So when an emergency arises, much valuable time is going to be lost as an ambulance, fire truck or police cruiser vainly attempts to find the house requesting fast action. That is the situation in most arras served by this newspaper, and besides the inconvenience to those trying to find your house, it represents a real danger to you and your family. At right try yourself to read house numbers from the road. We have even found numbers on the front of houses behind a large bush. On one street, the number was over the side entrance front door and therefore faced its neighbour's door rather than the toad. Borough officials in Scarborough are calling for an im- provement in this situation in order to avoid the possibility that someone will die as a result of an ambulance not arriving quickly or a fire truck not getting there with lifesaving oxygen for a heart victim. Perhaps some service club could take on the project of encouraging illuminated street numbers. The sale of such products could also provide funds for other worthwhile community work. Ontario Hydro Gets Green Light In a statement at Queen's Park this week. Hoa. W. Darcy McKeough. Minister of Energy, announced four major Ontario Government decisions regarding certain aspects of Ontario Hydro's program. The Government has approved several of the projects in the 197-82 generation program, all of which have been the subject of public hearings and review by the Ontario Energy Board. The Board reported to the Government in May that it could see no reason why approval for these projects should be withheld. Hydro may now proceed with construction of a new generating station at Wesleyville, on Lake Ontario, ex- pansion of facilities at Pickering Generating Station, and construction of two additional Heavy Water Plants in the Bruce Nuclear Devek>pment. The Government has deferred decisions regarding the Bruce "B" Nuclear Station and Heavy Water Plant "D" pending further recommendations of the Ontario Energy Board expected later this year. Secondly, the Government has approved the route of a Soo kV transmission corridor from Middleport to Cherrywood along with the necessary transformer stations, essentially as recommended by Dr. O.M. Solandt following his public inquiry. This transmission corridor will be located within the proposed Parkway Belt: West wherever possible. Thirdly, to transmit power out of the Bruce Generating Station now nearing operation, a 500 kV transmission line to join Bradley Junction to the Milton Transformer Station has been approved. This corridor will follow, wherever possible, the existing 230 kV transmission corridor between Bruce and Orangeville Selection of a second corridor from Bruce G S I Ontario Dunbarton High Schools' Ontario Scholars this year include (left to right)- TOP ROW - Walter Bordne; Chris Bozek; Beverley Daniels; Kathy Dinner and Patricia French.

Bad Ridges Sears Bullets Find Target An excellent game seeing continual break-aways by the West Shore Wolves' aggressive forwards resulted in a goal early in the first half. Phenomenal goal keeping by Steve Demoplous robbed them of additional markers. Excellent play making of Bullets half backs Ralph Rauch and Ray Rich ren- dered the Wolves' defence less than "Bullet -Proof" resulting in four goals for Bay Ridges. Forwards Mark Robbins and Tony Butyn each scored one goal and left helf Ralph Roach scored two to pace his team Fun Day In The Kinsmen Park Publishers 8 Writers Share Grants Thirty-one publishing houses and 44 periodicals are among recipients of more than $600,000 in literary grants announced this week by the Ontario Arts Council. The 31 publishing houses, all Canadian -owned and based in Ontario, share a total of $240.500 in grants. The grants are scaled from $15.000 to $2.500 each and are related to the houses' 1973 performances in publishing new books by Canadian authors, particularly in the areas of fiction, verse. the arts and social concerns. Grants to periodicals total $149,720 and range from $228 to Tower poetry magazine of Hamilton to $12,500 each to Saturday Night and Books in Canada. Of a total literary budget of nearly $1,000,000 almost $200,000 is allocated for grants to writers. These grants, ranging from $100 to $2,000 are awarded on a continuing basis throughout the coming year. In addition, the Council reported grants to a number of non-profit literary organizations, including a first grant of $13.000 to the Union of Canadian Writers to provide subsidized fees to prose writers giving readings of their work in Ontario secondary and post- secondary schools. Other organizations receiving Council assistance are The Independent Publishers' Association $15,000; the Canadian Periodical Publishers' Association $7,500, and the Canadian Writers Foun- dation, Ottawa, $1,000. A few weeks ago, the Council announced a number of special grants totalling $37.000 to assist Ontario publishers in launching three pilot projects in co-operative book marketing through bookstores, post -secondary schools and resorts. Finally, the Council an- nounced that it is introducing a new system of grants through a number of selected publishing houses to provide quality illustration for children's books. A total of $15,000 has been allocated for this pilot program.

In Ontario The brilliant poppy makes a colorful addition to any garden between the fading of spring flowering bulbs and the blooming of midsummer perennials, says R.F. Gomme, horticulturist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. The Oriental poppy is a favourite here. but a variety popular in Europe, the Flanders poppy. also grows extremely well in Ontario gardens. Like other perennials, poppies prefer a deep, rich, well -drained loam in a sunny location. Rotted manure dug into the soil prior to planting helps to improve its con- ditim. A complete fertilizer will supply the necessary nutrients for a summer of growth. Varying in height up to three feet, poppies are best displayed in the middle of perennial borders, although they can be effective in. rockeries.

Watch For Blossom End Rot In Tomatoes "Whether you are growing staked, pole, field or cherry tomatoes, all can suffer from blossom -end rot," says J. K. Hughes, a horticulturist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. The disease is usually related to a deficinecy of calcium and/or water stress from lack of soil water. Fruit becomes misshapen and black, dead areas develop near the blossom end, op- posite to where it joins the plant. Application of a fertilizer such as calcium nitrate and gypsum will help supply sufficient calcium to the plants. If water stress is the cause, frequent watering early in the morning is GORD'S MARINE Mercury Motors Gree. !oats Stern Dri.•s Aluminum toots CLAREMONT 649-2007 W Tn Mmw Experiener ��ERYr It�G FOR HOME IMPROVEMENT STAR FENCE Chain link Fence Free estima tes.

Mr. Hughes cautions against watering tomatoes in the evening. "Early -morning watering will give the plants time to dry off, and lessen the chance of botrvtis fruit rot developing." To help maintain uniform soil moisture, a mulch such as straw, grass clippings or thin black plastic may be added around the plants. Close, deep cultivation late in the season should be avoided.

Best of all, it's quick and easy to prepare. Food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food, suggest you take advantage of the plentiful supply of Ontario fruit throughout the summer and serve it often. Even on lazy summer days, meals should be planned around the basic food families: meat, milk, fruit and vegetables, cereals, bread and pastas. Ice cream belongs to the milk family. A scoop and a half contributes about the same calcium and protein as four ounces of milk, cottage cheese or yogurt. Strawberries, cherries, raspberries, melons and peaches will be available at various times this summer. They belong to the fruit family and contribute vitamins and minerals needed daily. A great ending to any meal, this colorful and cool dessert can be assembled in seconds, so that the hostess is able to please family and guests, yet spend more time enjoying the summer sun. Beetle Not Discontinued "Recent reports that the last Beetle had been built at the Wolfsburg plant of Volksw•agenwerk AG could lead to the erroneous con- clusion that the Beetle has been discontinued", said Bruno R. Rubess, President of Volkswagen Canada Ltd. "The facts are that production of the Beetle has been shifted from Wolfsburg to the Emden, Hannover and Brussels plants, in order to make room for the production of the Golf, a companion car of the Beetle", he explained: "There will, of course, be a Beetle in our 1975 model line- up", Mr. Rubess stressed. "By now over 18 million Beetles have been built, by far the largest number ever produced of any one model.

WESTSHORE SOCCER CLUB Here are some results from last week's games: ATOM DIVISION 1: West Shore K—Mart Glens 2 - Bay Ridges Ancients I In a very dose game the K—Mart Glens squeeked both points at the expense of the Ancients. The Bay Ridges team had unfortunately been hit by a vacationing fester but were able to field a team made up of boys who had not played much together, this was the Glens fortune as the Ancients showed good soccer sense throughout the game, even under this handicap. The Ancients started the game with a definite aim to w in and were first to score atter only a few minutes of play, when one of their forwards scored after a bad clearance by the Glens goal keeper. The Ancients continued their pressure until Kirk Dick scored the equalizer with an opportunists goal after the Ancients goal deeper had partially stopped a shot by Chris O'Leary, The Glens winning goal was a reversal play of the first, with Chris O'Leary the roan on the spot to score on a rebound after a shot by Kirk Dick had been initially stopped by the Ancients goaldeeper. The second half was void of scoring, but the Ancients had the best opporvnity, failing to score from the penalty spot. The Glens pressured the Ancients defense for most of the second half but good clearances and unlucky shooting by the forwards failed to add to the score. Two of the Glens who need mention in this game were Darryl Harris who is improving in each game and Chris O'L.eary whose eagerness showed in this match and with a few more years of experience, if he should continue with soccer, he could be a very dependable player. Well played lads. Coach: John Breeze. SQUIRT DIVISION 1: West Shore P.M.A. Argos 5 - Pickering Tigers 0 The PMA Argos put it all together in this game and this could be an amen for the reaminder of the season. Pat Harvey was the man of the match connecting on all 5 goals for the Argos after splendid worst by the rest of the team to assist in the goals and keep the Tigers of Pickering off the scoreboard. Well done boys, deep it up. Coach: M. Bruns. SQUIRT DIVISION 2: West Shore Wanderers 4 - Pickering Cubs 0 This was Trevor Blakelys first game for West Shore and he scored 2 of their 4 goals.

July 18th, 1974 - West Rouge Canoe Club HOME AT LAST After a long and difficult road trip to North Bay and Sudbury the racers at the West Rouge Canoe Club had a welcome rest on Saturday, competing in their own West Rouge Annual Regatta and Surfing Championships. These were held on the club's Lake Ontario race course in the heart of scenic downtown West Rouge. Rouge paddlers were victorious in 6 races on the 33 race program and amassed a total of 128 points to take second in the regatta. This regatta saw a near record of almost 300 entries from the 6 competing Western Division clubs. Kayak competitors Craig "Spiderman" Jobber and Mike "Golden -Boy" Stockfish were top point getters for the Rouge club. Jobber and Stockfish combined to easily win the Junior t K-2 race, then went on to win the Junior K-4 event with Rick " Rubadub" Strong and Dave "Big Bird" Burda. Mike "G.B." Stockfish was also a driving force in the West Rouge Senior War Canoe victory. Mark "Moustache" Edwards and Simon "The Gnome- Geller put in sterling performances in the Junior Kayak races, and finished up their day by pushing an inspired Junior War Canoe crew to a surprise victory in their event. Outstanding races were recorded by Jimmy "Flop- pier" Parsons i 3rd in Junior C-11 and by the "Hog" Junior C4 crew of Albert "Sump Pump" Potts. John "Daddy" Hollins. Steve "Series" Coupland and Dru "Romeo" Chillingsworth (second in Junior C4). West Rouge ladies showed their class by racing from a last place start to take a close victory in their war canoe race. Valda "Friend of the Schnoz" Chambers. Linda "Miss Bikini" Gordon. Susan "Petunia" Purkiss. Star "Fats" Turcotte and Sandy "Blazing Saddles- Fleming worked and swam hard for Rouge in the Ladies Kayak events. Juvenile racers carded an amazing victory in their K4 event. Peter "Beane" Bennett. Albert "Whistle Dog" Brom-Wee. Doug "Pipeline" McGregor and Steve "Pidgeon" Barton i, and were the body of the winning Junior War Canoe crew. The real performance team of the day for Rouge had to be the executive crew coxed by Frank "The Bear" McGregor. These guys. spurred on by a strong "Middle" of Dave "Poppe Dave" Morgan, and Doug "Pusher" Marshall and an intrepid back four of Rias "River Rat" Holder. Jen "Hot Dog" Chillingsworth, Rose "Hair Do" Fleming, and Stan "Streaker" Potts put in hours of effort to assemble the necessary equipment for a fine, well-run regatta. The efforts of Ken "Golden Tonsils" Butler on the microphone, and Jim "Big Jim" Parsons in the Judges' stand we also appreciated. Head Junior coach Ben "Blue Eyes- Dobson can be com- mended for his fine efforts with the Junior racers. It is quite probable that the secret energy drink concocted by Ben Dobson for Craig "Alley" Jobber will be used by all Rouge racers in forthcoming regattas. This week the canoe racers start intensive training for the upcoming Ontario and Canadian championships and it is believed that the club executive has reversed its decision about the new K-4, and decided to use the boat as kindling for the bonfire at the Bantam Bum Feed ( where is that K-1^ ) The continuing problem of boat number holders i not Russ "River Rat" Holders) has been solved by Mr. D. "Numbers" Chambers in the typical Rouge fashion.. "If you can't fix it, tape 1t"..... Next regatta for West Rouge is at the Balmy Beach Canoe Club in the east end of Toronto on Saturday, July 20th. Cone out and support your kids' Jim MacKeracher For Artists The Ontario Arts Council announced this week that it can now provide assistance for up to three people in- terested in becoming full- time professional artists' managers in the classical music field. To assist the prospective managers in setting up their businesses. subsidies up to $7.500 may be provided as well as help with estahlishine contacts with artists and employers. In making the an- nouncement. Chairman Anthony Adamson stated, "We hope this program will stimulate a more active and aggressive marketing of our fine soloists and groups. It's shocking that despite the array of performing talent we have in Ontario. there Sculpture DON'T BE SHY COME JOIN US!

The Cedarbrae District Library (545 Markham Rd., one block south of Lawrence Ave. E.) is pleased to invite the public to an exhibition of recent sculpture (bronze) and reliefs (resin and stell) of Maryon Kantaroff from July 9th to 31st. Kantaroff's own requirment is that sculpture be movement. "For me", she says, "a sculpture works if it appears to be growing, if at any point it could keep on growing into another shape." All the sculptures in this show have that quality. Although they are small works in comparison to some of her larger works, the 16 -foot one to Hamilton and the 12 -foot concrete Totems in the Sheridan Mall, Pickering, they are polished and finished as carefully.

July 12th, Mrs. John David Eaton officially opened a new $200,000 recreation and crafts building at the Ontario Society for Crippled Children's Blue Mountain Camp, near Collingwood. Commenced last year, this 7,500 sq. ft. hexagonal - shaped addition to the camp's permanent facilities will horse a large centre hall, stage, areas for crafts, counsellors' offices and equipment storage space. Construction of this long awaited facility became possible as a result of the 1972 Crippled Children's Thanksgiving Telethon. Mrs. Eaton will unveil a plaque naming the building the John David Eaton Hall in commemoration of her late husband's long association with the Ontario Society and his support of its rehabilitation programs. First opened in 1937, Blue Mountain Camp now has 28 permanent buildings on a 40- acre o-acre Georgian Bay lakefront setting at Craigleith on High- way 26 west of Collingwood. Throughout its four summer camping periods, it will accommodate a total of 288 physically handicapped youngsters between the ages of seven and seventeen. Blue Mountain is only one of five such camps owned and operated by the Ontario Society for Crippled Children which, each year, offer a carefully planned camping experience to more than 1,000 handicapped youngsters throughout the province. This summer, camp runs from June 30th to August 24th, after which the Society has again made its facilities available for a handicapped Adult camping program. For many of these young men and women, Blue Mountain will be a familiar scene from childhood days. Greenwood Consecration Can Be fun For Everyone Greenwood Conservation Area is 752 acres of roiling countryside with many opportunities for summer recreation. Fishing, swimming and hiking are just a few of the things to do - or just relax and sunbathe. From the nature trail, visitors can see signs of the many animals and birds that inhabit the Area. The trees along the trail are labelled to help visitors identify the various varieties. There are barbeque facilities and hot and cold snacks are offered at the refreshment booth. Greenwood has group camping by permit. The Area, just a short drive northeast of Metro Toronto, is five miles north of the Village of Pickering, off the Westney Rood. It is open seven days a week from 10:00 a.m. to sundown and is one of a number of Con- servation Areas operated by The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. For further information, contact Metro Region Conservation at 63097W. Victorian Oil Town A lot of people have their festival theatres of Ibsen, Shaw, Shakespeare and the heavy contemporaries. But there's a lot of people who get that "bull-in-the- chinasliop" feeling in those kinds of places. For them there is Victoria Hall, a late 19th century opera house that's staging an un- pretentious but impressive comeback in the small Victorian town of Petrolia that owes its existence to oil. Today Victoria Hall is well on its way to becoming a major regional center aimed at enriching the local cultural background without being stuffy about it. And all that after a sometimes colorless but varied career as municipal office, council chamber. fire hall, police station and opera house. This summer when Petrolia celebrates its 100th an- niversary as a town, Victoria Hall will once again be the center of life. But this time, instead of fancy dress balls, elaborate productions of European and North American repertory theatre troupes, the entertainment will be pure and simple, down home drama. It'll be the story of Petrolia staged by Theatre Passe Muraille of Toronto, an in- novative group that has found theatre in the barns, big towns and mining communities of Ontario. Passe Muraille director Paul Thompson says the troupe will write a play about Petrolia and its part in the oil industry of Canada. "We'll call it The Oil Show." Vacationers in the area will be treated to a most original theatrical production. The first commercial oil well in North America was sunk in 1858 by James Miller Williams in the farmlands of Ontario near the town of Petrolia, a farming com- munity 17 miles southeast of Sarnia and the U.S. border city of Port Huron, Michigan. Oil changed Petrolia's temporary wooden struc- tures into exuberant Victorian brick buildings. The population quickly rose to 5,000 and money changed hands. In 1887 the cornerstone of Petrolia's symbol of tran- sformation — Victoria Hall — was laid. Two years later the two-storey buff brick building with its distinctive clock tower, visible for miles, was completed at a cost of $35,000 and the people who lived in the comfortable serenity of those Victorian homes began going to the theater. Victoria Hall exudes the "character and gusto" of Petrolia as a boom town, says Ronald Baker, chair- man of Victoria Playhouse Petrolia (Inc.) a group of loca citizens intent on restoring the opera house to its original splendor.

(Photos - Trevor Bishop) poured from the refineries of Petrolia and surrounding area to homes and industries of the new technological era in the mid-18DO's. By 1890 the twon was economically the strongest in Canada and Petrolia's drillers and refinery men were in demand throughout the world. When the first oil well in Persia was dug, men from Petrolia were there. But almost as quickly as it began, it was over. Oil production declined and refineries moved to the waterways of nearby Sarnia where tankers brought foreign crude to their docks. By 19M the population was dwindling and Petrolia shifted its emphasis to farming. Today Petrolia. in Lambton County, is the number one producer of poultry. number two in soybeans and cumber three in sheep. Annual value of farm crops for the county is S70 million from 4.000 farms. But remnants of the oil era remain. The same jerker- like system developed in the im's still pumps oil just outside town: people live and work in a varied collection of Victorian buildings con- structed in Petrolia's hey day.

EBEAEGULARDONOR Uppermost on eve)ryone's mind these days is inflation. It is impossible for any single provincial government to com- pletely solve the problem of inflation, however, the Ontario Government has taken positive steps to offset the effects of inflation on low-income earners and on pensioners. One of the major programs introduced was GAINS - a guaranteed annual income system for our senior citizens. Effective July 1st, a single pensioner in Ontario receives a minimum of $216.67 per month and a married couple a minimum of $433.33 per month. These are the highest benefits paid anywhere in Canada and it does not include OHIP premiums paid on behalf of pensioners by the provincial government. Nor does it include free prescription drugs which will be made availabe to needy pensioners beginning September ist. Other tax benefits have also been implemented which affect everyone directly. The property tax credit has been in- creased from $90 to $180. The retails sales tax has been removed in a broad range of items - hygiene products, household cleaning products and footwear sold for $30 or less. Measures have been introduced to attack the high cost of housing. Ontario is the first Canadian province to introduce a unique land speculation tax designed to curb the pmts reaped by speculators who purchase and resell land without adding any real value to it. As a result of this tax, the prices of homes have already stabilized and in some areas of the province prices have even come down by as much as $1,000, or more. The Ministry of Housing has established a number of significant programs which will provide 12,000 dwelling units that would not be ordinarily constructed by the end of this year and upwards of 28,000 units for 1975. The Workmen's Compensation Act has been amended and will benefit workers whose pensions have been depreciated by inflation. Effective July 1, pensions presently in existence will be increased by as much as 60%. in some cases, based on a formula related to the year in which an individual's pension commenced. Benefits have also been increased for widows !rid dependents of deceased injured workmen and full )mpensation is now available for partially injured workmen ,io are unable to find suitable employment. Overall, the • arnings' ceiling for calculation of benefits has been in- -rased from $10,000 to $12,000. niario's general minimum wage has been increased from >_ lx) to $2.25 per has. The minimum wage for construction , )rkers has risen from $2.25 to $2.50 an hour and for students 90 from $1.65. (effective October 1.) There are many other important pieces of legislation too aunerous to discuss fully in one column. I will list some of hem briefly: a new warranty system which will ensure that all ::.,inufacturers and retailers stand behind their calms; a Business Practices Act designed to remove unfair, reptive and false business practices from the market- :�iace; measures to attack the problem of availability of capital :t:d its high cost to small businessmen; assets eligible for forgiveness of succession duties on .,na fide family farms" have been extended; provincial grants have been increased for public transit ,end rural roads. These and many more programs have been implemented since March Sth. Newspaper reporters have described the recently com- pieted session of the Legislature as a "marathon" one and indeed it was. Your members worked long and hard on your behalf, and, we hope, accomplished measures which will be of benefit to all of you.
