Aug. lst, 1968 �PICKERING L ISo S formerly The BAY Weekly REPORTER k P!W A Agreement Made Separate School May Be Built Pickering Township Council has given the green light to the local separ- ate school board to proceed with building a new school near Oklahoma and Hillcrest Road. On Tuesday night, newly -elected M.P. Norman Cafik appeared before a committee of the whole council to request that a building permit be issued as quickly as possible as the school was needed urgently. Reeve John Williams said that he and Mr. Cafik had conferred early about 'this matter and the board (separate school board) was stalled because a commercial landowner wanted $50,000 for an access to the landlocked school site. Mr. Cafik said that as a separate school sup- porter, he had been told that the school board had the "impression" that it was getting "the run around' from council. He said that after talking to the reeve and then going back to the school board he found that there was some con - f usion. Mr. Cafik said that there was no point talking about building the school if it couldn't be used. He said that he understands that residents of Hillcrest Road don't like construction trucks and school buses running up and down their 1:� PAP street, and he promised that the school board would take "every reasonable step to try and get access on neighbouring land". He said that IL the separate school board would be willing to If repair any part of the road which is damaged by the construction vehicles. Norm Cafik said that no school buses would be using HillcreSE Road until September 1969 and LOP that they would be running at different times than the GO buses which presently use the same streets. Councillor Don Beer added that the school buses were only "half as heavy as the GO buses". Separate school board chairman. John Blakeley, was present but did not make any statement to the council. Councillor Vic Ruclik asked if the separate school board had contacted the public school board for area No.2 about the use of their land 41 for construction trucks. Mr. Blakeley replied, no Councillor Art King. representative for this ward. said he didn't see how council could ob- ject to the building of the school "if all reason- able steps were taken**. Township engineer, Paul Poullsen said it would be necessary to have a plan for drainagt:. the site plan, fences and services before he could approve of the building. The architect says that all outside work would by Spring . Nor C af told the council. Council then emphasized that as the school had Believe It Or Not - It's A Beauty Contest!

Judging by the applause and laughter, the other children enjoyed the unique performance very much, especially when leader Dave Brooker, 18, won. (Photo - Bob Watson). Reeves' Clinic The Reeves of both P ickering Township and Pickering Village have given their sup- port to the Blood Clinic which Is slated for Wed. Aug. 7th, at the United Church C.E. Centre in Pickering, to help meet and replace the heavy drain on its Blood Bank which the Red Cross will face over the holiday week- end. Scheduled surgery and emergencies both call for a constant supply of blood. and vacation time means the supply sometimes goes to adangerously low level. The Reeves' Clinic hopes to help meet the demand. Although the recog- nized age limits for donors are between 18 and 65 years, 17 -year- old students may give blood if they obtain and bring with them writt- en consent from their parents. Clinic hours will be as usual: 2 to 4.30 and 6.30 to 9 p.m. Free transportation and baby-sitting services are available: call 282-6817 for infor- m ation.

Watson TELEPHONE 284-1767 0 lon pin* Disposable Bottles The quesEion of non- refundable bottles seems to be stirring up a great deal of controversy these days. We see more and more broken glass lying around the streets, on parking lots and in the grass and there is a growing concern about this debris. There is the danger of cut feet and knees should anyone fall on pieces Of this broke� glass and the damage to tires is enormous. As a consequence, Politicians are becoming more and more incensed about the problem and mur- m urings of "ban the bottles " are becoming more evident. If you analyze the situation, It is obvious that the manufacturing firms must be gaining from this trend or it would not continue to gruw. The bottles are expensive, but there is no doubt that the rising cost of labor is the factor responsible for the change. It costs money to clean the bottles and pre- pare them for re -use. The machinery for this cleaning process is expensive. but the man power it takes to operate these machines is the decisive element in the decision to change over to the non -returnable bottles. The manufacturers Claim that it is not their bottles which are responsible for the increase in litter and they point to the fact that pickle bottles. ketchup bottles and many other pro- ducts are put in Containers which are not returnable. Of course. you don't see too many people walking along the street eating ketchup or pickles these days -- but you do see quite a few people , young people especially, drink- ing pop as they walk along. When they finish their drink. most of them either toss the empty bottle into the grass or smash it up against a brick wall or on a stone. It's no good the manufacturers denying this for it is a fact which can be verified almosi any day Of the week. With the manufacturers benefirting from the disposable (that's a laugh) bottles. the problem has been shifted over to the municipalities which have to clean up the debris. The costs, then have been shifted from the manufacturers to the public purse -- or back onto the tax- payers. It would seem, therefore, that since the man- ufacturers Of these non -returnable bottles are responsible. at least partly, for the increase in the litter on our streets that they should help to promote the idea of keeping Canada cleaner. Why don't some of these firms assist the municipalities by providing more trash con- tainers on our streets. Many and many a shopping plaza and street corner is devoid of such conveniences and these could be a pro- motional idea With a great deal of advertising value to the companies in question. And, there is no doubt that if there was a convenient trash can where empty bottles could be stowed, many of them would be tossed there instead of deliber- ately destroyed. Z "That's Eddie . . . hc*s the best football player in our class!" Let's Face The Problem Now Everytime someone makes a public stateme �! which in any way appears to "discriminate against people who happen to have black skin, many people rise up in wrath and heap con- demnation on the necks of those who have dared to say something. Last week a man who lives in Scarborough brought to light HIS OPINION that it was wrong for a real estate agent to bring one Jamaican family after another to buy a house on his street. He said that the result was the formation of a "ghetto" of people of one colour and the "whites" move out. We Canadians who have sat back in "holier than thou" attitude to criticize Americans for their racial problems must shortly face up to the practical aspects of inter -racial integration. Some of those who condemn the most when 11 other people" complain about Negroes moving into their street, may find the same thing facing them . Let's hope that their high principles remain steadfast and they accept people no matter what their colour. It is fair to say that in the Metro Toronto area at the moment, Coloured People are moving in and not finding too many objections from neighbours. But we would suggest that new- comers arriving here from another country - say for example, Jamaica - realize that to force the black vs white issue too soon in one small area, will create the kind Of problern in relationship of one neighbour to that everyone wishes to avoid. another Almost everyone would like to see us, as a society, evolve Into a Position where the cOlOur of a man's skin, his accent or his different ways do not bring violent reaction. It would be ideal if we could accept everyone for what he is, not for what his skin is, or religion, or racial background. In Metro Toronto we have come a long way since the time that it was important to belo�g to the "right group" or the ' right religion' Given time and the slow Integration Of new* comers and we could have an ideal area for - the intermingling of human beings. However, if greedy real estate People, anxious to please a new group place them all on one street - such as a group of Jamaicans _ the result will -be exactly the kind which all of us abhor. Neighbours - no matter what their colour of skin (including "white") - can be very ex- asperating. There is no doubt that the greatest stress of one family to another is in the actual street relationship. He Says Panic Stems From Ignorance Dear Sir: In the 25th of July edition of your paper you reported that Mr. Tom Melough of 58 Shandon Drive is concerned about thenumber of Jamaican famWes moving Into the houses for sale on his street. He intimated that It was a conspiracy by real estate people promoting these sales to create a ghetto. According to Mr. Melough three white families have all ready moved off the street because of these sales. In my concept a ghetto Is a concentration of people who are crowded into an area where there is limited vocations, and educatIonal opportunities; are culturally deprived, and, because Of limited spending power find it almost impossible to better their conditions. Such a condition can only exist when pressure Is applied by a dominating group obsessed with bigotry and pre)udice. deluded by a feeling of superiority as an excuse to deny fellow citi- zens the right to make a livelihood. It appears to me that Mr. Melough has no reason for fear or concern. unless he identifies himself with the people that are responsible for the creation of ghettos. The aspirations of the Jamaican families that move into his area are no different from his own. They want a decent home for their Children, adequate educational opportunities and outlets for cultural expression. They want assured privacy and the independence to pursue their Own course in life without interference. If there is panic among the other neighbours it Stems from ignorance. NO One should be unirdormed about the facts of the racial situation in Canada and the United States. Jamaicans have been and wW Continue to be good and productive citizens In Canada. They are as much entitled to $26. 000 homes. or homes at any price if they want to pay for them, a right that all citizens enjoy. Jamaicans are not "Ghetto minded" nor Will they Submit to any situation that creates ghettos. Sincerely, Don Carry. 24 McCowan. Know Where You Belong She Says Dear Sir: I have read wit h great interest about those poor people on Shandon Drive who are faced with the prospect Of living in 2 colored ghetto. Having brown -skinned neighbours must be bad enough, but these are Jamaicans to boot and probably barely civilized. I think every street Did You Know That should have its Own rules about color of skin, hair, eyes and so on, and then everybody would know where he belonged. Yours truly, Ruth M.

The traditional Luau is a feast that blends all the tastes of the many cultures of the islands -- Chinese, Polynesion, Japanese, Filipino and, of course, Occidental. The friendly Luau spirit makes the Ideal background for warm weather outdoor or patio entertaining here too. Aloha, the traditional island greeting will, we predict. become a familiar greeting across Canada this summer. SETTING YOUR LUAU IS SIMPLE Arranging your patio or backyard to provide the setting for a Luau is easy. The food is served buffet style so all you need are tables to serve from. These should be covered with straw mats and decorated with flowers and fresh pineapples, coconuts, bananas and any other tropical fruits that are available. Since the guests will be eating outdoors and picnic style, paper plates will be acceptable and these should be supplemented by gay paper serviertes. Hang paper Chinese lanterns from the trees or roof of the patio. These can usually be found in novelty stores or they can easily be made. If obtainable, Chinese windchimescan be hung with great effect in a place where they wW be in a draft so that the noise they make will add to the effect. Greet each guest with a Lei. Traditionally these are necklaces of flower petals strung on a string. However, since flower petals are not so plentiful in this country they can be easily made from pieces of colored paper. Ask guests to come in bright sports shirts and gay dresses and ask their assistance in gaining the genuine Luau atmosphere. Try to find a flower for each of the ladies to wear in her hair.

Ist, 1968 THE POST Page 5 Fluoridation Program Is Proven Success The results of the program of fluoridation in the water supplies of Metro Toronto are now becoming known. Dr. J. W. Lawrence, Head of the Dental Division of the Scarborough Dept. of Health in his annual report to the Board last Wed. July 24th said there is a 3WO reduction in total caries attacks because of the program. Fluoridation of the Metro water supply was started in September, 1963 -- about five years ago - - and he said there is a marked improve- ment in children at the age of five, with a slight Improvement In caries attacks in older children. An interesting study made by the local Dept. of Health shows that children who were born and have lived continuously in the Metro Toronto area have a "significantly better dental state than the non -natives, with a greater difference for the 5 -year old children." In the age 4 group, for example, there were 3132 children examined who were born and raised In Metro and 652 were examined who were not born and raised here. In the Metro group it was found that 1832 or 58.5% had no apparent defects in their teeth while in non -natives 323 Centennial College Has Art Exhibit A collection of paint- collecton of paintings ings featuring Centen- will be displayed until nial roses is now on Sept. 23rd.

At age five, 1390 children from Metro were examined and 784 or 56.4570 had no apparent defects while of the 269 non -natives examined 114 or only 42.4% had no defects. There was also quite a difference inthe number of 4 -year olds from Metro who required fillings in their teeth compared to those who were not born here. Of the 3132 examined, 906 from Metro required fillings or 28.9% while of the 652 non - natives examined, 245 or 37.570 required fillings. At age 5, of 1390 examined 444 or 31.9% natives needed fillings and of the 269 non -natives examined, 126 or 47% required fillings. It was the same story for premature loss of molars. At age 4, 156 or 5% had lost these teeth while in the non-native group 54 of 652 or 8.3% had lost molars. At age 5 103 Metro chiWen or 7.45PO had lost these back teeth while in the non-native group 38 of 269 or 14.17, had lost them.

Teens Could Do Much I hope you will be able to find some small place in your paper for a letter to our Young Adults. Because of age limits and work permits many of our young people complain of having nothing to do and no where to go. They congregate in plazas and hangouts, and are deemed by their elders as noisy teenagers whom they wish would just get lost. This year has seen masses of young children at swimming pools for instructions. It is my feeling that many of the teenagers would have been welcomed both at ADY and Conservation Pools. They could have lined up with towels, helped with shoes and at the boarding of buses.

This was an ex- tremely close match with the Bay Ridges boys making the most of 4 hits to earn single runs in the 3rd, Sth and 8Eh inning. With Higham, backed by a strong defence, limiting the Zepher scoring opportunities. George Redshaw bat- ted in all 3 of the winners runs. Red- shaw, the clubs lead- ing hitter once again was 3 for 4 at the place including 2 for extra bases. He hit for 2 bases in the 5th and had a solo homer in his last appearance in the 8th inning. Catcher Terry Rail picked up the other hit a 5th inning single.

Teenagers have proven in the past their will- Ingness to help by "Walk- a-thons" and they could once again offer their services. Some mothers accompany their children to the pools, others for various reasons go alone. This is where our teens can really fill in. Don't be a useless individual - make your community a place where you are welcomed not rejected. You have more to gain than you will ever lose. So ....... How about it?

REMINDER So many people leaving for vacations and long week -ends forget to tell the girl or boy who delivers the paper. Some even forget to pay. and are shocked and disbelieving when told they owe for two weeks or more. Please remember these youngsters work hard for their money and they are usually the losers when customers fail to pay up.

Cottage Pollution Study A cottage pollution study is being conduct- ed by the Dept. of Health's Engineering Service and it enters its second phase this summer. The study was started in 1967 when cottages were inspected on three lakes. one each in the Muskoka Dis- trict,Peterboro County and Hastings County. The cottagers on the lakes were notified in advance as to the pur- pose of the study and then each cottager was nterviewed and data collected concerning sewage, laundry and kitchen wastes and garbage disposal. Water samples were taken from in front of each cottage site, close to the shore- line. -- qq-q Thurs. Aug. Ist, 1968 THE POST Page 7 ............. ................ SQUARE DANCE NEWS by Mollie Elliot Western Ontario is losing one of its best known and most pop- ular square dance leaders: Earl Bow- les, of A.F.B. Clint- on, who is moving to Quebec. E arl, an active member of South Western Ontario S/D Assoc., has done outstanding work with the Overseas Square Dance group. Canadian m:)dern square dancing is in- creasingly popular with the Armed Service Forces in other countries, and Earl keeps track of the many Canadians who are interested in dan- cing. When they re- turn home they can keep in touch with friends , old and new, In the activity. No doubt we'll soon hear of Earl's new square dance clubs in Quebec! Two new groups of modern square dancers have been organized there recently, by Bruceand Shirley Wright, who were also moved to Quebec after several years' calling around the Trenton -Belle- ville area. Theynow have clubs atArvida and Alouette. While on vacation this month. Bill and Barb- ara Cooper, Cooks- ville, called a dance for Bruce's Saguenay Swingers and found a progressive, enthusi- astic group. The name "Hayloft'* has been applied to many square dance hails, perhapsbecause the square dances of Canada's early years were often held in barns. The Hayloft at Barrie. however. has another reason for its name - the leaders being Lorne and Betty Hay. These two enthusi- astic young people call and teach a staggering number and variety of dance - centred groups - square dance classes, round dance classes, adult, teens and children, as well as family dance -and - camp weekends. Throughout the year dancing goes on at the Hayloft and the Hays travel to Collingwood regularly to call for Ski -Town Squares and Blue Mountain Prom- enaders. Barrie Clubs include: Guys 'n Dolls, Hayloft Squares, Beaux n' Belles, Rhythm Rounds. Besides these activities, Lorne and Betty find time to organize special weekends, such as Geneva Winter Week- end. and Day in May, both sold out early to visitors from all over Ontario and New York. As a Centennial pro- ject, the Barrie Black - 1 ite Dancers were trained by tht� Hays. Using special lighting and costuming, they put on demonstrations of modern squaredan- cing at Expo, tookpart in centennial pro- grams at scores of places, and are still being booked. Ernie and Sybil Brown Of C.F.B. Angus, also call for modern square dancing in this area. Owen Sound,too, has m any enthusiastic square dancers, dir- ected by Bill and Doris C ranny. The scenic City Squares conduct clubs and classes and their members are well-known visitors at festivals and special programs throughout programs throughout the province.

SHELLS WIN (Cont'd from Pg.5) years provincial championship. With the schedule nearing completion they are hitting their stride at an excellent time. SHELL DEFEAT PAM 10 TO 4 Picking up 10 runs on a 12 hit bombardment the M & J Shells from Bay Ridges rolled over Pam to pick up a win in last Thursday night's home game. Playing before the season's largest home crowd the Shells turned in a sparkling performance both off- ensively and defen- sively. The attendance at Balsdon Park for the Thursday night games is getting larger each week and the team has been responding by playing some of their best games in recent weeks. Pitcher Al Buksa went the route for the Bay Ridges Boys hold- ing Pam to 7 hits while striking out 10. Pam scored 2 of their runs in the 9th inning after the Shells, sponsored by M & J Shell Service Centre, had relaxed with the victory well in hand. The Shells had a big 41th inning scoring 5 runs on 5 hits when Pam had to face 8 batters. Bob Baird had the big hit of the inning with a home run. Bob had 3 other hits including a double and scored 3 runs to lead the Shells in hits and runs. Stu Higham had 2 hits both for extra bases, a double and triple. This was one of the Shells best defensive games with many out- standing plays es- pecially in the 6th . 7th and 8th innings. In the 6th Stu Higham playing the unfamiliar position of Ist base, fielded a hot grounder for an unassisted put OUE then quickly fired the ball to catcher Warren Hall to catch a Pam runner attempt- ing to score from 3rd to retire the side. The 7th inning highlight came with 2 Pam players on base and 2 out. Catcher Hall made a perfect throw to 2nd sacker Walt Hall ilk The Royal Canadian Legion One of the big pro- jects at present with the Royal Canadian Legion is the selection of applicants for their annual bursaries and scholarships. This is a wonderful project, sponsored by the Legion and ladies; auxiliary to assist the children of veteransin bettering their ed- ucation at university or teachers' college. To get these bursar- ies, students should apply at their school or nearest Legion branch for an application form. FRI in the app- lication and return it to the branch or address on the form. Parents of those con- cerned will be seen by the Zone Comm- ander, Deputy or Branch president, who will help them. The officer will turn over this application to District Command who decides who should receive the bursary. This is another of the many causes spon- sored by the Legion and each year alarge number Of Students are assisted. Deputy District Commander Bill Tan- ner would like to express his thanks to all Legions whichpar- ticipated in the East York Dominion Day parade, to make it the biggest parade yet. A Special word of thanks goes to Basil Smith, the Parade Marshall, to Co -Chairman Wes Green of Branch 10, The Fort York boys. Jimmy Graham of the East York Danforth Lions Club and to Brigadeer McGuiness and Dominion Presi- dent Bob Kohaly for attending. Bill is also grateful to pick off the runner for the 3rd OUE. George Redshaw gathered in 2 fly balls in the 8th inning and one was a remarkable shoe string catch while charging the ball at PICKERING POST to the participating Majorettes who played a big part in the color- ful spectacle. The Leaside Lions girls won the Majorettes trophy and the wonder- ful Elanettes from Scarborough although they had some march - Ing music problem, stole the show. Branch 22nd won the color guard trophy and branch 345 had the lst place marching unit. Branch 10 had their new color guard out for their first parade appearance. Thanks go to all whopartici- pated and to East York municipality for their co-operation. We have received a note from the Peter- boro Exhibition Com- mittee extending an in- vitation to all Legions to take part in their Ist annual Warrior's Day Parade on Sat. Aug. 10th. Thisparade Is sponsored by Branch 52, Peterboro and parade time is 10 A. M. Any branch available would be welcomed by Peter- boro that day. That World War I re- union we mentioned some time ago in this column is tentatively set for Oct. 26th at the Toronto Armories. District Commander Tony Stacey and De- Puty Commander Bill Tanner are working overtime on the pro- gram at the moment and are awaitingcon- firmation of dates. If everything goes according to plan. it should be a wonderful day for all those World War I soldiers. The postal strike is holding up some of tbedetails, but we will pass them along to you as soon as we hear more. full speed. This was a big win f or the M & J team gained on an all out team effort and is an indication of the type of baseball this team is capable of playing. Serving Pickering Township With NEWS And VIEWS And The Community By PHOTO For Advertising, Subscriptions Or News Call 284-1767 Discontinue Use Of DDT In National Parks The use of DDT has been discontinued in Canada's National Parks and is being re- placed by less persistent Insecticides, ac- cording to an announcement by the Hon. Jean C hretiern, Minister of Indian Aff airs and North- ern Development. Mr. Chretien said that DDT is effective, but its use is being discontinued because of its undesirable side effects. "DDT Is extremely persistent and residues have been transported from their places of application and are now found all over the world, even in the oceans," said the Minister Scientists' reports from several countries say that the long-lived DDT residues have caused serious damage to animal populations and particularly fish. The residues build up In animal tissue and become mere concen- trated along food chains -- from bottom dwel- ling organisms to fish and gulls. James Woodford who writes for the Feder- ation of Ontario Naturalists says that DDT is now widespread in the oceans of the world and it is crippling the tiniest sea organisms. According to Dr. Charles F. Wurster Jr., reporting experiments in a recent issue of Science, tiny amounts of DDT can disable Phytoplankton, the microscopic plantlife of the sea. The tiny organisms form the basic foodstuffs for all sea life from oysters to whales and produce 2/3 of the world's atmospheric oxygen supply. The experiments showed that one part of DDT in 10 millions of sea water was enough to reduce the activity of the minute plants to 1057, of normal. Dr. Wurster also reported in the same mag- azine that a wide-ranging oceanic bird, the Bermuda Petrel, will be extinct by 1978 be- cause of DDT contamination in the Atlantic Ocean. The Petrel. which feeds only in the open sea, accumulates enough DDT in its eggs from its oceanic diet to prevent it from breeding effectively. The Doctor stated "The occurence of DDT and derivatives are found not only in soils, runoff water, air, rain water. but also in most animals analyzed from widely diverse parts of the world, including Antarctica. Residues of DDT were recently reported in marine organ- isms of both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans." Dr. Wurster siad that recent reports from his colleagues in California show that half the DDT in tropical Atlantic arrives by way of rivers entering the sea and half from fallout from the trade winds. "DDT is a persistent chemical with a half- life of 10-15 years; it does not disintegrate, but remains in the environment to be taken up by animals and concqptrated by their systems into damaging amounEs- The Federation of Ontario Naturalists believes there is no longer any circumstance that just- ifies the use of DDT in the general environment now that concentrations have reached the point of degrading ecological systems throughout the world.

Aug. Ist, 1968 THE POST Page I I Report From Oueen's Park by Bill Newman, M.P.P. Ontario South COMPULSORY MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTION Mr. Speaker, I draw your attention to some rather curdling statistics tabled in the Annual Report of the City of Hamilton's Vehicle Safety Check Program. From May through September of 1967, the Hamilton Police Department in co- operation with the Ontario Department of Trans- port operated motor vehicle safety check lanes in that -city. During the five month period, 1, 499 vehicles were inspected. 53 were voluntary Inspections. The remaining 1,231, were carried out on a non -voluntary or spot check basis. Of the 1,499 vehicles inspected, 342 had one or m:)re unsafe tires; 1,531 had faulty headlights; 190 had no headlights at all; and 81 had no wipers. 109 drivers were summoned for not having proper insurance; 156 vehicles had defective steering; 3 suspended drivers were arrested; and 81 vehicles were found to have no foot brakes. Of those 1,499 vehicles only 142 were issued with stickers labelling the car "safe" for the next six months. 224 were declared totally unsafe, the license plates were removed and the vehicles were towed away for repairs. Mr. Speaker, all but 142 of those fifteen hundred vehicles were potential accidents "looking for a place to happen". And as the Members of this House know, the story is an all toofamiliar one. The Commissioner of the Ontario Provincial Police summed up the part his Department played in the 1967 vehicle inspection program by s�ying: Our personnel assisted with compulsory safety Lane inspections at 61 locations where 60,753 vehicles were checked. Members of the Force assigned to this operation controlled traffic, directed vehicles to safety lanes, and checked operator's for driver's licences and insurance certificates. As a result, 262 charges were laid under the provisions of the Motor Vehicle Claims Act, and 326 charges for offenses relation to driver's licences. The need for continuing compulsory inspections is indicated by the fact that 47,115 vehicles did not pass the examination." An even smaller percentage of vehicles gets by the inspectors at the Imperial Oil Company's seven Toronto based Car Clinics. At these computerized centres, vehicles are subjectedto a rigorous one hour. two hundred point inspect- ion that diagnoses not only safety hazards but engine ailments as well. Imperial Oil takes pride in the fact that several Toronto used car dealers are now putting all their vehicles through the process in order to warrant the mechanical condition to the customer. To bring the problem closer to home, albeit on a much smaller scale, three Members and a representative of the press yesterday visited the Department of Transport's permanent testing centre at Downsview. All four vehicles sub - Of the four vehicles inspected, two - one of which was the 1968 model - were issued with safety stickers and an invitation to return after another five thousand miles had elapsed. The third was found to have a defective horn. but thanks to an alert inspector the small, but necessary. repairs were made on the SPOE. The fourth vehicle failed the inspection miser- ably and is to be submitted for re -testing. The chief inspector on duty at the Downsview testing centre estimated that four out of five vehicles that pass through the inspection lanes require attention to one or more safe driving points. Steering and suspension defects are the most common weaknesses and I submit, Mr. Speaker, that steering and suspension failures are responsible for many of the "loss of control" accidents on this province's highways. Unfortunately, Mr. Speaker, it is difficult to translate motor vehicle inspection figures into accident figures. The proportion of accidents involving mechanical failure is largely amatter of conjecture. Estimates range from 2.5 per cent derived from police reports, and used as a basis for the Ontario Departmentof Transport studies, to a figure of almost 90 percent quoted by some of the more recent American studies. However, the most commonly quoted figure for Canada is 9 per cent. If we accept this modest estimate, then ridding the roads of mechanical weakness would prevent about one accident in eleven. In 1967 that would have been 13,000 accidents avoided in the Province of Ontario. Mr. Speaker, the longer this province waits to bring the necessary legislation into effect, the longer that 9 per cent of property damage, injuries and death will remain a part of the cost of modern motor transportation. Consider too, Mr. Speaker, the important secondary benefits of compulsory motor vehicle inspection. Here's a unique opportunity to educate the drivers of this province - to contact them personally regarding the benefits of safe driving and to instill in them a sense of safety consciousness. I am told that those provinces. states and countries With compulsory motor mitted for inspection were less than two years old. One was a 1968 model with just a few thousand miles on the speedometer. The inspection itself covers thirty-eight points and requires approximately five minutes to com- plete. vehicle inspection have lower insurance pre- mium rates for bodily injury and property damage. Motor vehicle inspection assists law enforcement agencies by encouraging driversto have proper vehicle permits, driver's licences and insurance liability slips. The resale value of the vehicle is increased and depreciation lessened by keeping the car in consistently good operating order. And finally, motor vehicle inspection has the effect of improving garage workmanship for repairs must then meet minimum standards laid down by this province. Naturally, there are arguments against motor vehicle inspection. There is the initial cost to the province of establishing the system, estimated to be somewhere between 12.5 and 20 million dollars. Then there is the annual cost of operating an inspection program. rhis could be handled by a small fee which would probable be offset by reduced insurance rates. For if, as the industry says. accident rates do have a direct effect on premiums. insurance cost would drop. There is the argument that only a small number of accidents are caused by mechanical defects and that even when mechan- Ical defects are found in cars involved in accidents we cannot be sure that the defects caused the accident. However, as Wayne State University notes in its report on motor vehicle inspection: "Vehicle inspection laws are comparable to fire safety regulations - it is impossible to estimate how many fires are provented oy safety regulation, but few would advocate that we do without such regulations." There's the statement that a " sticker pasted on the windshield is meaningless if brakes fail an hour or a day laEer." There's also the claim that with inspection a bare minimum of main- tenance can become estaDlished as the norm so that drivers may well put off needed repairs until just before the next inspection is due. Mr. Speaker, these arguments don't hold water. Until the hard facts the critics seem to require are in. the only approach to the problem of traffic accidents involves chipping away at the grim statistics. Compulsory motor vehicle inspection is the one way to knock out an appreciable chunk! I recommend that 311 vehicles. including cars, trucks, buses, trailers and motorcycles regis- tered in the Province of Ontario should be required to pass a regular annual safety inspect- ion conducted by the Ontario Department of Transport. Although a six month interval would be preferable. an annual inspection is a goud beginning and will give the Department achance EO familiarize itself with the system. In order to thoroughly inspect the more than two and one half million vehicles registered in Ontario on a regular basis. the Department of I ranspurt will have to improve its inspection methods and extend its inspection facilities. Rather than introducing a costly province owned and opera- ted system where inspections are carried out civil service personnel working in stations leased or owned by this province. I feel that a province appointed and supervised system should be implemented. This method of inspect- ion is one of the four currenElv under consider- ation by the Department of Trainsport and isex- plained in detail in the various studies devoted to motor vehicle inspection. This system is already in effect in Nova SCOEiaandin a' numoer of areas throughout the United States. Under the province appointed and supervised System, garages or stations would file an app- licaEion with the Department of Transport whose responsibility it would be to administrate and supervise the program. An il)VeSEigation would then be conducted to determine the applicant's eligibility, space, manpower and equipment requirements as set forth in the legislation would have to be met by the applicant in order for him to qualify. Oral examinations WOLIL! also be given the applicant to determine whether he fully understood the responsibilities associ - ated with the inspection program and whethe: the applicant's personnel were qualified to per- form the inspection program as set forth in tl:�: rules and regulations. If the station met all of the space. manpowe-- and equipment requirements. it would be appoint - ed a designated inspection station and a nominal annual registration fee would be charged by tho, province. rrainingprograms would be conducted and continuous checks made to insurethatthe designated station was operating in accordanc�.! with the rules and regulations to certify mech- Con't. an Page 12 Page 12 THE POST Thurs.

Bay Ridges News Highlights By Carmen Cramp FAMILY REUNIONS A long awaited reunion of the Young family is to take place between August 4th and August 11th. The Young family originated from Bella Coola, B.C. and are now scattered well across both Canada and the United States. Several members of the family will be traveling some distance to this first reunion since 1943. Mrs. Dot Burnett, formerly Young, Balaton Ave., Bay Ridges and sisters Mrs. Pearl Fisher, Bay Ridges, and Mrs. Lois Sherar, Richmond Hill, have taken on the sizeable job of making all the necessary preparations for the ocassion. Family members will be congregating to the summer home of Lorne and Dot Burnett in the Kawartha Lakes District. The following are expected to attend: Norman and Grace Cowley, San Jose, Calif.; Mrs. Gladys Blyth & family, Port Edward, B.C.; Mrs. Pearl Fisher & family, Bay Ridges, Ont.; Jay & Lois Sherar & family, Richmond Hill, Ont.; Dean & Jean Young & family, Atlanta, Ga; Herb & Bonnie Mayer & family, Boise, Idaho; Mr. Lee Young, Bella Coola, B.C.; Mr. John Young, Bella Coola, B.C.; Lorne & Dot Burnett & family. Bay Ridges. Ont. This family get-togeEher will be an exciting occasion for all members and in particular John. who has not had an opportunity to visit with some of his brothers and sisters in the past twenty years. It is regrettable that Rev. H. Young and his family will be unable to attend due to a family illness. however the family's best wishes are Bill Newman Con't. from Page 11 anics' competency and to determine the avail- ability of minimum required tools and equipment. The actual routine of inspection would be set forth in documents provided to the inspection stations along with step-by-step check sheets for the actual inspection process. Should the vetucle successfully meet inspection require- ments, then some appropriate means of idenEi- fication. a sticker or slip. would be issued. If the vehicle failed to pass the inspection, then repairs would have to be made within a desig- nated period of time and the vehicle submitted for re -inspection before being issued with the identification sticker or slip. Cost to the motor- ist for the inspection would be approximately 52.00, the same fee presently being charged in the Province of Nova Scotia. The province appointed and supervised system of motor vehicle inspection Is particularly app- ropriate to this province. A large number of stations may be authorized, permitting achoice on the motorist's part even in smaller commun- ities. Travelling distance to the nearest inspect- ion centre would be cut to a minimum - an important consideration in the more remote areas of Ontario. The system may be quickly and easily organized since stations already in existence need be examined only for floor space. manpower and equipment requirements. The costly selection and training of a large inspection force is eliminated. Financial cons0erations incident to the location selection and purchase or construction of the testing site are eliminated. Questions regarding government competition with private enterprise are eliminated. And finally. any required corrective work can usually be done at the same garage where the inspection is performed, subject to the approval of the vehicle owner. Mir. Speaker, all of the transportation industry is currently engaged in re- appraising and chang- ing its standards in the interest of automotive safety. Manufacturers are equipping their new vehicles with dozens of safety innovations in acc- ordance with the rigid standards set down by this province. Engineers are making aconscientious effort to design an additional margin of safety into our highways. The petroleum and auto- m3tive accessory industry is involved in large scale research efforts and sophisticated quality control metods in the cause of safety. More attention is being paid to driver and safety education. And Mr. Speaker, it is my opinion that this province can help meet the challenge presented by the one thousand five hundred projected but avoidable highway casualties in Ontario this year by introducing compulsory annual motor vehicle inspection NOW! with them at all times. May I add my personal wish to all members of the family for a most enjoyable gathering on this memorable occasion.

PARK SUPERVISORSORS The Recreation Association of Bay Ridges Park Supervisors program is now well into the fourth week of operation and report an even more successful season than 1967. A new supervisor has been appointed to assist Hilde- garde Winter with the children at Mitchell Park. Last week Gary Jacobs was employed for the remainder of the program which is to be in operation for a total of 9 weeks. The 5 supervisors in the 3 parks are on duty Monday to Friday from 9 to 12 a.m. andfrom 1 to 5 p.m. There are a great number of activities provided for the youngsters, some of which include arts and crafts, colouring. sing songs and many acriv- ity games and sports. We hope the children of the area are taking advantage of this program and would like to think that it is one way in which our young people can enjoy themselves for the summer.

Mrs. Lorraine Duff and her three children will be holidaying at her parents' cottage for two weeks. Unfortunately Ken will be backing it at home and we hope the dish supply holds out -- anyway there is always paper plates. Happy Holiday, Lorraine! HOME AGAIN Bud & Mavis Rogers & family returned home last week after holidaying in Manitoba. The combined a camping trip with a visit to Mavis' parents in Winnipeg and Bud's f am Uy in Brandon. It was obviously a most happy holiday and several minor unfortunate incidents are looked upon with humour. (We now know how to treat a sore back, eh Bud?) This was their first trip bark to the old stamping grounds in three years and I am sure everyone had an enjoyable time re- newing previous memories. PERSONAL OPINION What has happened to the Pickering Township Municipal Building grounds? Drove by on the weekend and wondered what had hit 1he grass The grounds looked beautiful in the Spring an� it seems a shame that the surroundings of an award winning building should be allowed to deteriate in this fashion. Unless there is more involved surely a little water and fertilizer would do the trick. Heard that there was standing room only last Thursday night at Balsdon Park where the Shells played Pam. Glad to see they are now gathering a following of local fans. By the way did you know that the curfew imposed is 11 o'clock? Sure am pleased to see the sunny weather holding out. Hope it continues for the rest of the summer as I am sure there are many of us who haven't had our holidays yet. By the way "Did you hear about the kid who had Egyptian Flu last Winter? He caught it from his 'Mummy"'. Nuff said! See you next week.
