PICKering Linet
Pickering Township may get some tax relief as the result of a brief
presented to the Ontario Legislature last week. The legislative committee
studying briefs on the Smith Commission's Report heard Councillor John
Kruger tell of the problems of Pickering and agreed that an interim subsidy
should be given to the township.
Mr. Kruger told the committee that Pickering would need $100 million
in new industrial assessment to give it a basic balance of industrial and
residential assessment. The councillor got a-
greement that it was senseless to restrict new
housing in the township during a provincial
housing shortage.
Don't let a couple of kids in the car distract you! Driving has to be a full time job if you want
to arrive safely at your holiday destination. A distracted driver is an "inattentive driver" and
statistics show that inattentive driving is the major cause of accidents in all age groups. Last
year in Ontario, at least 260 deaths were caused by this reason, and more than 36,000 people
were injured. The Dept. of Transport reminds you to stop regularly to avoid fatigue as well.
Residents Go Over Heads Of Council
When he couldn't get the consent of Pickering
Township Council to cancel a proposed closing
of a road allowance, Paul Minguay, solicitor for
a group of township residents, presented Council
with a petition for the Lieutenant -governor in
council to object to the road closing.
Mr. Minguay, under questioning by Councillor
Vic Rudik, revealed that the piece of land in
question had been owned by a single owner, but
between —late 1467 and as late as six weeks ago"
had been sold in 15 acre parcels to a number of
people. He named among the new owners, Ken
Goodwin, S.S.Spencer, Mrs. Marion Kent, firs.
Muriel Pugh and Mr. Hugh Pugh.
In ah advertisement in the Stouffville "Tribune
Council had announced its intention to close the
road allowance which was placed on theoriginal
land maps and which runs through the centre of
the present lots.
Mr. Minguay left no doubt that he thought the
closing notice should be published somewhere
where his clients might have a chance to read
of it. He also said that the closing of the road
allowance, which he agreed was not a road in
use, would depreciate his clients' land value
and also deprive them of access to their land.
Reeve Williams said that if the allowance were
closed, the people could still drive over that
"field if they want".
He added that if the residents were prepared
to provide a road and pay for the construction
of one, he saw no need to close the road.
Councillor John Kruger said he had looked over
the property and he thought that it was the most
beautiful in Pickering. But he argued that if there
is a road, "not one penny of taxpayers' money
should be spent on it for maintenance".
The lawyer refused to state whether his clients
were prepared to spent money on the road. But
he said that his clients were taxed the same as
anyone else and that they were interested in
"ke--ping this land in its natural lane state",
When Reeve Williams said that he did not
think that the township would sell the road allow-
ance but just let it stay there, Mr. Minguay
questioned whether the township had the right
to do so. He argued that the township only had
the option of selling the land to the abutting
owners.
At the conclusion of the discussion, one of the
residents, Ken Goodwin, said he would like to
ask a question. Councillor Art King objected
and suggested that the question come to council
through the lawyer.
In the heated exchange for a few moments it
was learned that Mr. Goodwin just wanted to
know when further hearings on this matter would
be heard. He was told that his lawyer would be
kept informed.
OK New legion Hall
Pickering township Council has given approval
to the use by the Royal Canadian Legion of an
industrial building on Toy Road.
A number of nearby residents wrote to the
Council to object to the legion hall, which they
feel will lower their property values and see
all night drinking and extra noise.
Former reeve Will Laycox appeared at Council
on behalf of the Legion and said he can't con-
ceive of the industrial land becoming quieter
for the nearby residents. He predicted more
industrial activity in the area with the resultant
greater noise.
Councillor Don Kitchen said he couldn't think
of a better location for the legion hall than in
the industrial area.
Reeve Williams said he didn't think that the
hall would devalue the nearby land and he could
not agree that there would be noise from over
drinking.
The brief (which is reproduced in full inside
this issue of The POST) points out that Picker-
ing should be merged with the village or Pick-
ering and the town of Ajax to form a new, outer
borough of the Metro Toronto system.
One member of the legislature said he thought
Pickering Township's problems were caused by
previous councils giving in to citizens who
wanted to sell and subdivide too much land for
housing too quickly. He was not sure whether
the other ratepayers in a future Metro region
should be asked to pay for Pickering's mistakes.
Councillor Vic Rudik protested this point of
view and said that the Minister of Municipal
Affairs had never objected.
Reeve John Williams also spoke before the
committee pointing out what he thinks are errors
in the present provincial legislation.
Oshawa Upset
Soon after the report was made public, reaction
from council members in Oshawa was under-
stood to be against the idea that Pickering and
Ajax should join the Metro complex.
Editorial -
Pickering Township is very fortunate to have
on its council men like John Kruger, whose
training and talents enables him to write a good
brief for the township and present it to the leg-
islative committee seeking reaction to the Smith
Report.
We must agree with Mr. Kruger that Pickering
should in no way be connected politically with
the city of Oshawa. Pickering is logically part
of the expansion of Metro Toronto, and regard-
less of how this disrupts the county merger idea
of Queen's Park, the people of southern Picker-
ing will continue to come from Metro - and work
to a large degree in the urban area to the west.
It is to be hoped that the plea and good, solid
argument of the Pickering brief for an immed-
iate assist financially from the province, will
not fall on deaf ears. Pickering needs the extra
money to give its ratepayers a tax break - and
this would encourage more people to move to
Pickering, thereby taking a housing load off
Metro Toronto.
It is important, too, that proper planning for
greenbelt and agriculture land should be made
NOW around Metro Toronto, in order that a
continuous urban area does not develop to event-
ually stifle the effectiveness of the region.
William Newman, M. P. P., has been doin$agood
job in representing Pickering at Queen s Park
and it is to be hoped that he will press all of the
right ministers to see that Pickering's problems
are dealt with this summer and not in some far
off time.
There are many interests attempting to per-
suade high authorities that all of the land east
of the present Metro boundary should merge to
form an Oshawa Region. But these interests
are not concerned with the proper development
of the western part of Pickering, but only of
extending their own personal sphere of influence.
Pickering Township's brief is concise and
well written and does not need an interpreter
to analyze its contents. Action is needed and this
newspaper has been bringing this matter out
in its columns for some time now. Urban growth
problems are new to us in Canada, but what
must be done to contain these problems is sure-
ly obvious, even to legislators who live in the
vast, rural areas of the province.
We would suggest to Pickering TownshipCoun-
cil that it meet with the village of Pickering and
town of Ajax to investigate the early merger of
the three municipalities into one as the obvious
first move in the creation of a new outer Metro
borough.

Says We're Biased Against NDP
Dear Sir:
Being a subscriber to your newspaper for some
time and reading your editorials every issue, I
have decided I can no longer let them go by
without a reply.
Your repeatedly biased attacks on the New
Democratic Party during the election disgusted
me. And then your editorials of June the 27th
attacking the labour unions was just too much.
You say thay are asking for raises of dollars
per hour not cents, yet you fail to name one.
And I challenge you to name one union asking
for dollars an hour. I don't know of any and
I suspect neither do you.
You go on to say they will force up the cost
of living. I suggest to you that what is really
forcing up the cost of living is companies like
Ford of Canada announcing their profits doubled
in one year , and then the following week
Canada Speeds Up Camp Must Go
Pierre Elliott Trudeau is not allowing any
grass to grow under his feet before he gets
his new parliament into action. It is barely a
week since he was elected to office, and al-
ready his new cabinet has been sworn into
office. Not only that -- but he put his cabinet
to work immediately on Monday morning, with
a full schedule ahead of them for the next
two weeks. We would think this is unprecedent-
ed in Canadian parliamentary history.
It is obvious Mr. Trudeau is anxious to get
going, and if things keep up at this pace,
Canada is going to be known as the "Swinging
Nation" instead of that dull and staid bunch
north of the U.S.A.
His choice of cabinet ministers has even been
approved by former Prime Minister John
Diefenbaker -- and that's something unheard
of. Mr. Diefenbaker pointed out that the cab-
inet should have representatives from each
province, and barring Prince Edward Island,
Mr. Trudeau has managed to appoint a cabinet
minister from each province.
No doubt he will try to bring Prince Edward
Island into the business of this nation too, for
Mr. Trudeau has said he wants a united Canada
and the only way to unite anything is to have
each segment involved in the whole.
We were glad to see that Eric Kierans was
among those chosen as a cabinet minister.
Mr. Kierans has been credited with being one
of the most brilliant financial men in Canada --
and it would seem to be a shame to waste
such brains.
It will be interesting to see what Mr. Trudeau
plans to do with the Post Office Department, for
it is said that Mr. Kierans is headed for more
responsibilities in the field of communications
and that could include broadcasting as well as
other fields.
Our new Prime Minister also plans to operate
parliament on a more efficient basis. with some
of the key cabinet ministers handling the bulk of
the work. This will allow others, not affected
by that particular day's business, to get on with
their jobs.
It must have been a frustrating experience to
have work piled up ahead of them, and yet to
have to sit through endless debates about
matters which did not affect their departments.
The new system should improve this situation
and it is to be hoped that it works out as well
in practice as it sounds on paper.
Trudeau has also said that the back-
benchers as well as the cabinet ministers will
be working harder than ever. That too is good
news, for we elect these members to the govern-
ment to do some work there.
So, we're off and running and we hope that
Mr. Trudeau and his merrymen on Ottawa
Hill keep going and make Canada the great
nation it can be.
Did You Know That
More schools have booked tours to see Upper
Canada Village than ever before this year.
Upper Canada Village has even more to offer
now with the expansion of the Agricultural
Museum.
Canoes were the original means of trans-
portation on inland waters in Canada and were
used extensively in exploring and developing
trade in the interior of the country. There are
more canoes manufactured and sold in Canada
today than were ever built by the Indians,
proving their continuing popularity.

Mile Markers

A department spokesman said it was the first
time that such signs have been placed on high-
ways in Canada, and their installation would be
confined to major controlled access routes
where it is difficult to establish locations.
The green and white signs carrying only the
mileage number will provide an easy means of
location identification for motorists requiring
assistance in the case of emergencies.
The mileage signs on the Macdonald -Cartier
Freeway (Highway 401) are numbered from west
to east, starting at Windsor and ending at the
Quebec boundary. On Highway 400 the signs
are numbered from south to north, starting at
the junction of Highway 401 and ending north of
Barrie.
Duplicate markers on the westbound lanes of
Highway 401 and the southbound lanes of High-
way 400 run in descending order.
The installation of signs at three locations on
the Macdonald-Carier Freeway -- between Air-
port Road and Islington Avenue and between
Yonge Street and Kennedy Road, in Metro-
politan Toronto, and along the 15 -mile section
east of Ivy Lea -- has been delayed because
construction is in progress.
A total of 1164 signs will be installed when the
work is completed.

fying figure for an N.H.A. mortgage. This rep-
resents earning approximately $4.00 per hour.
How many Trade union members are earning
this figure? Let alone non-union members
whose wages are substantially lower.
My point is, before you write editorials accusing
the unions of forcing up the cost of living,
you should check a little deeper and find out
some of the "facts of living' in Canada, and
in particular in Toronto in 1968.

genius of the Party.
My summation of the article is sour grapes
from start to finish.
Mr. Camp has tried 3 Elections and failed
3 Elections. He also participated and failed
in the New Brunswick Provincial Election. He
worked very diligently to get Van Horne elected
in New Brunswick and I am given to understand
that the advertising in that campaign consisted
of nothing but smear and innuendoes against
Mr. Robichaud.
The most serious act ever committed by
Dalton Camp was the fall of Mr. John
Diefenbaker, who is truly a great Canadian, and
which Mr. Dalton Camp fails to realize still,
is that Mr. John Diefenbaker was the only one
at the Leadership Convention, who stood up in
no uncertain terms, and told the Convention that
there would be no special status -- only one
nation for Canada.
I would like to remind Mr. Dalton Camp,
the advertising genius - that this past Election
was also based on this theme, one united Canada.
Again I would like to point out to Mr. Dalton
Camp that he has created a great deal of unrest
in the Conservative Party since this terrible
defeat - but let us hope in the future, that the
Conservative grass roots will shake off the so-
called advertising geniuses, start afresh with a
strong new Party.
I would like to state, all my experience in the
past with would be advertising geniuses has
been a laugh against the real advertising execu-
tives - since the majority of these people
claiming to be advertising executives are mas-
q,;erading, and covering up for their own lack
of knowledge, while fast talking.
f here is no room in the political arena for
'r. Dalton Camp and his so-called advertising
.;: mickry.
What has Mr. Dalton Camp contributed to the
onservative Party except disgrace? As I
3=e it, he has only brought shame and unrest
to his Party.
I am a firm believer of the 2 Party system and
believe Mr. Dalton Camp should go.
Yours very truly,
T. H. Irving.

Submission Of Pickering Township To The
Ontario Committee On Taxation (Smith Report)
Introduction
1.0 This submission represents the results of the
Corporation of the Township of Pickering attempt
ing to fulfill the task of giving logical, practical
and constructive criticism of the Smith Report.
Our Township does not have on staff specialized
personnel who can devote their time and energy to
the exacting task of analysing the validity of the
many theories and philosophies expounded in the
Report.
Therefore, our comments are confined to a
discussion of those points with which we are sure
discussion of those points with which we are most
Familiar.
1.1 A detailed report concerning the Municipal
taxation problems facing Pickering Township has

been prepared and is now in the hands of the
Office of Premier Robarts. The title of that
report is "Corporation of the Township of Pick-
ering Tax Report" and it should be read in con-
junction with this submission. For the sake of
convenience, a copy of the Pickering Tax Report
is attached.
1.2 Of necessity, our submission is pragmatic
but we argue that this should not detract from
its value as critique. Pickering is alongestabl-
ished rural Township which in the last five years
has become predominantly urban. It suffers from
all the classic problems of unplanned economic
growth. We agonize over a disasterous imbalance
of industrial to residential assessment, a dom-
ination of our land use patterns by the sprawling
demands of Metro and a pressure for continuing
residential development. The Township is a
dormitory of Metro. In return, we receive
little assistance from Metro. Metro grants us no
real service or financial relief, and the inequity
of our position is characterized by the fact that
our residents pay municipal taxes higher than
surrounding areas despite the fact that our
level of service compared to these areas is

Preparations are
underway for the 3rd
annual Skill -O -Ree,
the first in which all
Cubs, Scouts and
adults (leaders & par-

inferior. Schedule "A" demonstrates quite
clearly the dimensions of the problem. It will
be noted that on a house assessed at $5,000.
the Pickering ratepayer will pay $150. more
in municipal taxes than his neighbour in Metro
or in Ajax. Schedule "B" shows a reason why
this is so -- the unfavourable Township in-
dustrial assessment ratio of 12.757,as compared
to 47.5Fo for Ajax.
In summary, we are the practical example of
what has been described in the Fourth Annual
Review of the Economic Council of Canada as
"one of the most urgent problems facing Canada
today is that associated with the demands of
rapid urbanization".
In our view, the Smith Report only provides
part of the answer to our problems. In our
Township we are experiencing the bitter con-
sequence of the lack of planning of our pre-
decessors, at both the Municipal and Prov-
incial levels of government. Time has already
run out.
Format Of Comments
2.0 We have considered all of the recommenda-
tions contained in Chapter 7 of Volume 1 of The
Smith Report.
Certain sections of the recommendations are

--Other Provincial Taxes
--Revenue from Forest Resources
--Revenue from other Natural Resources
--Revenue from Alcoholic Beverages
--Provincial Government Enterprises
--Other Non -Tax Revenue

clusive are as follows:
--Taxes on Property (basic issues and policy
proposals). All recommendations are endorsed
except 2,3,5 and 11.
--Taxes on Property (exemptions). All recom-
m-ndations are endorsed from 1 to 20 inclusive.
--Taxes on Property (assessment). All recom-
mendations endorsed except number 3.

commendations endorsed except 9,10,12,14, 16,
19,20 and 25.
--Municipal Debt. All recommendations en-
dorsed.
--Reconciling Structure with Finance. In prin-
ciple, we endorse the concept of regional
government contained in recommendations 1 to
4 BUT WE DISAGREE EMPHATICALLY WITH
THE PROPOSED APPLICATION OF REGIONAL
GOVERNMENT TO PICKERING TOWNSHIP.
N.B.
It is pointed out that the above recommen-
dations with which we agree have been endorsed
in principle. We have not had the time to analyse
them in depth and it is requested that this fact
be kept in mind. This qualification does not apply
to our study of Regional Government,
The Key Recommendation
-Regional Government
3.0 For Pickering Township, the key recom-
mendation is that dealing with regional govern-
ment. In our opinion, the Smith Report fails
to make a case for its proposed boundaries
Of an Oshawa region.
3.1 Viewing Chaper 23, paragraphs 40,41,42,
43, 44 and 45, we have no disagreement with
the criteria established for a regional govern-
ment area. However, in applying the test of that
criteria it immediately becomes evident that
the conclusions drawn by the Smith Report as
related to Pickering Township are financially
illogical, geographically unrealistic and socially
(Continued on Page 5)
(Cont'd from Page 4)
unacceptable.
3.2 The statement in italics which summarizes
paragraph 40 of Chapter 23 says:
"A government region should possess, to a
reasonable degree, a combination of historical,
geographical, economic and socialogical
characteristics such that some sense of com-
munity already exists and show promise of
further development subsequent to the criterion
of the region.'
When the factors of historical, geographical,
economic and socialogical are applied to the
proposed Oshawa region it is clear that Picker-
ing Township has no place in an area domin-
ated by Oshawa.
Historical
(a) Historical. Most of the people in the south-
ern urban sections of the Township came from
Metro. They settled where urban services were
available and they ignored traditional county
boundary lines when they took up residence.
They bought their homes because of personal
considerations -- number of bedrooms, down
payment, financing, schools, size of lot, etc.
They were urban people demanding urban ser-
vices and they settled in urban areas within a
reasonable distance of their jobs in Metro.
The fact they bought a home in Pickering was
likely because they obtained a good deal on a
home, rather than because they specifically
wished to live in Pickering. The important
thing --the historical centre of their activities --
was Metro. Oshawa had no influence in this
urban growth.
Geographical
(b) Geographical. The control over our land
uses by the Metropolitan Toronto Planning
Board, the Metropolitan Toronto Waterfront
Plan, and the further evidence of our rela-
tionship to Metro in the M.T.A.R.T.S. Study
is graphic. evidence of our attachment to the
Metro base. The GO commuter system which
services Metro stops at Pickering in the east.
The Conservation Authority, through its acquisi-
tion of large tracts of land in Pickering Town-
ship envisages this area as a major recrea-
tional facility servicing Metro. Road patterns
have the obvious quality of providing quick
access to and from Metro for the Pickering
resident. In short, there is not a single im-
portant geographic consideration which ties us
to Oshawa.
Economic
(c) Economic. We should be an economic satel-
lite of Metro. The tragedy is that we are not.
Mast of our people work, shop and find their
entertainment in Metro and this gives valuable
commerical and industrial assessment to Metro.
If we were classified in an Oshawa region, the
shopping and work habits of our people would
not change --but our assessment difficulties
would multiply. We would continue to give
valuable assessment to the Metro region while
we were taxed on the basis of an Oshawa
region. This undoubtedly makes economic sense
for Metro but it is hardly just or reasonable to
Pickering.
By having an economic union with Metro, we
can receive the advantage of a far geater
range of administrative and utility services --
services which our urban oriented residents
expect. After all, they received these services
in Metro before they made their homes in
Pickering and they feel it is their right to
continue to demand this same standard of
service. Health, fire, welfare, police and all
the other "people" services should be at a
standard minimum to the requirements of an
urban dweller. Because of the economic pro-
blems in Pickering and our inability to gain
a share of the assessment we give to Metro,
minimum urban services are not always en-
joyed by our residents.
Sociological
(d) Socialogical. Socially, we lean to Metro.
Consider the telephone. Our telephone exchanges
gravitate to Metro and it is a hardship on our
residents if they have to pay a long distance
charge to Toronto. It is no hardship to have
to make a long distance call to Oshawa for
this is done infrequently. The daily newspapers
in our area are Metro newspapers and we
are influenced by the politics of Metro and not
of Oshawa. A bus or transportation strike in
Metro hurts us but in Oshawa we don't even
feel it. Our entertainment activities are all
concentrated in Metro.
In summary, the application of the criteria in
paragraph 40 to Pickering Township highlights
the incongruity of the Township being contained
in an Oshawa dominated region.
Thurs. July 11th, 1968 THE POST Page 5
Pickering Submission To Smith Commission
3.3 Chapter 23, paragraph 41 states this opinion:
"A region should be so structured that diverse
interests within its boundaries are reasonably
balanced and give promise of remaining so in
the foreseeable future."
There exists within the Township an unrealistic
balance between rural and urban voters. Ap-
proximately 200 of the voters are rural and
80% urban despite the fact that the 2000% rural
voters live on 7597, of the land in the Township.
To merely draw a schematic line along or
near the present northern Pickering Town-
ship boundary is to ignore the intrinsic right
of the minority of our residents ( the rural
voters) to fair and reasonable representation.
Portions of the Township which are distinctly
rural and which will likely remain that way
for at least the next 20 years should be con-
sidered for amalgamation with parts of other
municipalities having similar rural expecta-
tions.
The need to preserve a community of interest
of residents is ignored in the boundary recom-
mendations for the Oshawa region for another
reason. Pickering Township, Ajax and the Village
of Pickering will tend to develop as a unit. The
influx of further Metro residents into these
areas will only enhance the Metro leaning of
them. As they grow they will, because of their
development and size, evolve as a community
within themselves but always with a Metro
orientation. They will never identify with an
Oshawa base.
3.4 The criteria in Chapter 23, paragraph 42
says:
"Every region should possess an adequate tax
base such that it will have the capacity to achieve
substantial service equalization through its own
tax resources, therby reducing and simplifying

the Provincial task of evening out local physical
disparities."
The financial demands on a community are
directly related to the levels of service re-
quested by the residents. The western boundary
of Pickering Township is no more than a sur-
veyor's line drawn in the centre of a road -- Port
Union Road.
People thoroughly conditioned to the levels of
service in a progressive vibrant environment
such as Metro are the same people who are
:making their homes in Pickering. The Port
Union Road has become to them a symbol of
the inability of existing legislation to adequately
tackle the problem of urbanization. A house on
one side of Port Union Road, the Scarborough
side, pays $150.00 less in taxes than a similar
house on the Pickering side of the road, yet in
Pickering the level of service is far less. The
better balanced assessment base in Scarborough
holds up the expectation that taxation will rise
at a reasonable rate, but no such expectation is
held for the Pickering resident. Under present
economic conditions the Pickering resident has
no hope of gaining a level of service approaching
that of the Scarborough resident because the
tax load would be so punitive as to be impossible.
Yet the difference between the Scarborough and
Pickering urban resident is no more than a
surveyor's line drawn up a road.

Consider these factors in Pickering Township:

--Expansion of Recreation Facilities
--Expansion of Transportation Systems
--Source of Future Residential Development
All of the above will be influenced to some
slight degree by the inherent needs of present
Pickering residents but they will be over-
whelmingly dominated by the needs, the de-
mands and pressures from Metro. The needs
and demands of Oshawa will have no material
effect on them. Future Pickering residents will
be transplanted Metro residents, who will bring
to Pickering an urban orientation that cannot
be altered. It follows then that Metro has a

clear responsibility to these residents. It is
wrong for Metro to solve its housing crises
by imposing the problem on a Township such as
Pickering which does not have the economic
base to support the magnitude of the develop -
m ant which has occurred in this Township in
the past four years.
It is not enough to blame previous councils
in the Township. The Ontario Municipal Board
permitted this problem to occur and the fact
is we have the problem and we have to do
something about it. The question is no longer
who was wrong but what was wrong and how
can it be corrected!
With an industrial assessment ratio of only
12.7�o it is impossible, based on our previous
rate of progress, to achieve the desired 400%
within any reasonable time. We are even denied
assistance under the Ontario Development Cor-
poration Program which, in the circumstances,
is not only ludicrous but discriminatory.
The economics of scale convince us that
it is efficient and realistic in our municipal
debt management to pool our long term bor-
rowing needs with those of Metro. This would
not only give our Township a better credit rat-
ing but it would also permit lower interest
rates. It would permit us to call upon financial
expertise which we desperately need but cannot
afford.

Pickering Submission To Smith Commission
It is unreasonable to expect the Oshawa region
to maintain a balanced equalization through its
own tax resources when the bulk of the resident-
ial development in this region would be in
Pickering Township. Instead of a Pickering
problem there would then be an Oshawa reg-
ional problem.
it makes good economic sense to consider
Pickering Township as a unit amalgamated with
Ajax and the Village of Pickering. This unit
should be separate from the Oshawa region
and attached to Metro. This gives Metro the
land resources it needs for expansion and it
gives the residents within the unit created the
opportunity to enjoy a level of service and
tax equalization necessary to ensure their urban
status is comparable with the status of other
urban areas.
3.5 In summary, the proposed Oshawa region is
unacceptable to the residents of Pickering Town-
ship.
Recommendations
RECOMMENDATIONS
4.0 It is our belief that the very special problems
of municipalities adjacent to Metro require a
separate solution to that proposed in the Smith
Report. There is another dimension to reg-
ional government into which areas such as
Pickering Township rightly fall and the Province
should be seeking to define the answer.
4.1 Pickering Township is now in the position
where either the standard of our services must
deteriorate further or financial relief must be
found. With an Ontario Municipal Board Order
restricting buildings to 100 permits per year
hovering over the Township and with industrial
assessment growing at a slow rate, the task of
maintaining present inadequate services is a
difficult one. Our assessment base will not
experience an increase sufficient to offset the
rising costs of government, and we will there-
fore be faced with a mill rate increase. At a
present residential rate of 128 mills we have
no further room to move.
4.2 We strongly recommend that a special study
be undertaken immediately. Participants in'the
study should be Metro, the Town of Ajax, the
Village of Pickering, Pickering Township and
representatives of the Department of Municipal
Affairs. Such a study could form a pilot for
similar studies in other jurisdictions located
on the Metro fringe. It is our belief that
studies of urbanizing areas on the fringe of Metro
have a more critical priority than any other
research facing the Provincial Government in
the Municipal field.
4.3 At the time the study in 4.2 above is begun,
interim tax equalization relief should be provided
to Pickering Township to permit us to carry
on our urbanizing role without causing the tax
burden on the present residents to become
disproportionately oppressive. This could be
accomplished by Metro absorbing the Township
into its financial base.
4.4 It is stressed that Pickering Township is
in such a position that it cannot wait for the
estimated five years (or even one year) that
it will take to enact such studies as the Smith
Report or the M.T.A.R.T.S. Report. Our prob-
lems are here, they are now and solutions have
to be found immediately. If delay is experienced,
this will be bureaucratic procrastination of
such punative proportion that the emotional
reaction of the Pickering resident may well be
incapable of being reasonably maintained.

CANOE CLUB
The West Rouge Canoe Club was well rep-
resented at the Regatta held on June 29th, at
Mississauga, Port Credit, and the Dominion
Day Regatta at Toronto Island on July 1st.
At Port Credit West Rouge placed third,
beaten only by the powerful Mississauga Club
and Balmy Beach, who were first and second
respectively. Our Bantam War Canoe crew,
headed by F. Grueneiss, won the Bantam Race,
and the Bantam C-4 event was won by the West
Rouge team composed of Jeff Betts, Mike
Cureton, Charlie Fellnermayr and Chris Helyar.
In the Open War Canoe Race, Dave Watson's
crew placed second.
There was great excitement at the Island
on Dominion Day when the West Rouge Junior
C-4 team came from behind to win this event.
The Ladies War Canoe, with Dave Watson as
Coxswain, placed third in their race.
Don't forget our own West Rouge Regatta
takes place on Sat., July 13th, starting at 11
a.m. Come on out and support these fine
paddlers. You'll be glad you did!
RETARDED CHILDREN'S FUND
Hats off to the energetic ladies who canvassed
the West Rouge area on behalf of the Retarded
Children's Fund. Through their efforts alone,
the sum of $800.00 was raised.
Many thanks to all those who contributed to
this worthy cause, - on the day of the Blitz,
by sponsoring student marchers, or by purch-
asing a tag. Every little bit helps.
HAPPY EVENT
Everyone was happy when Randy Dear, son of
Mabel and Alec Dear, won the West Rouge Ladies
Club Scholarship. His mother, Mabel, was the
one who originally suggested this plan many
years ago, and she has been a tireless worker
in the Club since its start.
SCHOOL TRIP
In spite of the horrible weather (yeuch!) the
girls and boys of West Rouge Grade 8, along
with their chaperones, Mrs. Iris Farley, Mrs.
Joan Forsythe and Mrs. Ruth McMehen, and
school teachers, Mr. Bratton, Mr. Lye and Mr.
Real, enjoyed their trip to Niagara Falls. Songs
and chatter filled the bus and all were in good
spirits. At Niagara the weather was fine and they
were able to enjoy swimming, a trip on the
M aid -of -the-Mist and plenty of sight-seeing, in
addition to the main attraction, the Falls. A
tired but happy group returned home with lots
of exciting memories.
GET WELL SOON
Best Wishes for a quick recovery to Keith
Rose, Flagstone Terrace, who was injured in
an automobile accident. He suffered a broken
leg and will spend most of the summer in a
cast. (Sincere sympathy from this corner -
from one who knows only too well what that
is like!)
Kind thoughts also to Syd Farr, recently injured
in a boating accident. Both are patients at the
Scarborough Centenary Hospital - a real good
place to be if you have to be in such a place at
all.
LUCKY WINNER
Glad to hear Mrs. Colgan, West Point Cres.,
won a basket of groceries at the Pot Luck Supper
held recently by the Rouge Hills Senior Citizens.
MOVING ON
Goodbye and Good Luck to Bernice and Ham
Stackhouse, and to Shirley and George Cridland
and their families who have moved away from
West Rouge and are now living in Scarborough.
Too bad so many nice people are leaving Pick-
ering Township. Could it have anything to do with
our ridiculously high taxes? Just wondering.
CLEVER GAL
Sincere Congratulations to Mrs. Noreen Gomes,
Donshire Court, who recently wrote Canadian
Certified General Accountancy exams and at-
tained the highest marks in Canada! She is to be
presented with a gold medal for her achieve-
ments. Nice work, Noreen!

also prepare both
house plants and gar-
den for the vacation.
The house plans can
be taken care of by a
kind neighbor. A bath-
tub filled with water to
the rim of the pots will
keep them for two
weeks, but if you have
small pots as well as
large ones it is wise
to put them in another
spot such as the kitch-
en sink or laundry
tubs. You will find that
most of your plants
will flourish from this
treatment.
On occasion I have
used the laundry tubs
and with the coolness
of the basement they
have been in bloom
when they would not
flower in the window.
Thurs. July 11th. 1968 THE POST Paste 7

1P Gwen Fawtlrop
F.N.C.S.
Another method is to
place the plant in a
plastic bag and tie
the top with a twist
tie. Be sure you water
the plant well before
you put it in the bag,
and take it out of the
sun. You will find that
plants treated in this
manner are in excel-
lent condition when you
return.
Most plants can and
should be put out into
the garden. If you are
In doubt as to whether
they like the sun, place
them under a shrub or
tree. You can plunge
pot and all into the
soil, but be sure to
put some stones under
the bottom so the
worms will not get in-
to the pot.
Your lawn should be
cut before you leave,
and it is wise to pay
one of the neighbor
children to cut it while
you are away. An uncut
lawn is as tell tale as
the newspapers left in
the door. If you and
your neighbors take
holidays at different
times, why not ex-
change the courtesies
of cutting the lawn
and watering as well.
There is nothing as
disheartening as a
brown lawn and dried
up flowers when you
return from your
vacation.
A liquid fertilizer and
a systemic insecticide
can be used just be-
fore you leave so the
plants will be protect-
ed against mildew and
insects, as well as
having been fed. You
can mix both in the
same sprayer. Put the
required amount of
both in the sprayer
and fillwith water and
you do the whole
operation at once. This
can be done, in fact,
every time you spray.

SQUARE DANCE NEWS
VazaLionfng square
dancers, last Saturday
danced a grand pro-
gram of squares and
rounds in the beauti-
fully decorated Tri -
Par S/D Centre, Port
Elgin, sponsored by
Town and Country
Swingers, directed by
Stu and Wyane Robert-
son. Burlington.
Visitors from Owen
Sound, Collingwood,
Toronto, Etobicoke,
Brampton, Florida
and many other places
danced, strolled in the
cool grounds, or
browsed at the Page of
California S/D Wear
Shop. Looks like abig
season for these
Saturday -- summer
dances!

crowd at their "real

Blakely's Potato Stor-

Five callers, bar-

in a barn, it's modern
square dancing.
Last spring we men-

years, and we offer
congratulations to
Bert and Iva Ashley,
Long Branch, who
haven't missed a night
in 13 years!
Now we'll have pro-
tests from modern
square dance clubs,
because the modern
(o: western) type of
dancing is in its in -
f ancy, and any modern
S/S club that's ten
years old is indeed
an old timer! Of
course there's a
friendly rivalry be-
tween the two; : ypes of
dancing, but many
people enjoy tradition-
al as well as modern
square dancing, and
are members of both
old time and :noI,%--i

straw, coco shell or
peat moss will help to
keep the weeds down
and at the same time
retain moisture. The
patio can be kept weed
free with an applica-
tion of vegetation kil-
ler. Be careful not to
get any on the grass
or it will be killed
as well.
If you are troubled
with weeds in the
driveway, particularly
if it is gravelled, this
is the easiest way of
ridding it or paths
from weeds. The soil
is said to be steri-
lized for two years and
no weeds are supposed
to grow -- but you will
find a few will still
come up.

Report From Queen's Park
by Bill Newman, M.P.P. Ontario South
REPORT ON ONTARIO HYDRO
An interesting and impressive report on the
activities of the Hydro -Electric Power Comm-
ission of Ontario was given to the Legislature.
It was pointed out that almost all of our water
power sites are exhausted except in theJames
,'Bay watershed. These have an estimated com-
bined potential of approximately one million
kilowatts.
Meanwhile, Ontario Hydro must plan and con-
struct generating capacity to meet power de-
mands which have doubled every 10 to 12 years
for the past 40 years. Under the current expan-
sion program, the Commission will add in 10
years a kilowatt total greater than that developed
in its previous 62 years.
It will accomplish this primarily through the
use of a combination of nuclear and coal -
burning generating stations. The nuclear stat-
ions will serve as the base load plants designed
to meet the average power demand throughout
the 24 hours of each day. The coal -burning
plants, operating in conjunction with the nuclear
stations, will serve to meet the brief peak
demands.
NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANTS
Ontario Hydro's commitment to the atomic
power program developed by Atomic Energy
of Canada Ltd, has been proven to be fully
justified.
This program calls for the use of natural
uranium, produced in our Ontario mines as
fuel, with heavy water as a moderator. The
advantages of this system have been amply
demonstrated in the Rolphton plant on the Ottawa
River. This plant has been operating for six
years - consistently, reliably and safely produc-
ing power for Ontario. By the the of 1967 it
had delivered over 609 kilowatt hours of electric-
ity into the provincial grid.
The Rolphton plant provided invaluable infor-
mation for the development of the 200,000
kilowatt Douglas Point station on Lake Huron.
This is the first full-scale nuclear generating
station to be built in Canada.
The teething difficulties encountered at Douglas
Point have been overcome and commissioning
tests at up to 100 per cent of rated capacity
are continuing. When these tests have been
completed, Ontario Hydro will purchase the
plant from AECL at a price which will make
the cost of power fully competitive.
In 1964, Ontario Hydro decided to construct
a 1,000,000 kilowatt plus station at Pickering.
rhe first two units are being financed under a
co-operative arrangement with Ontario Hydro
contributing approximately 40;., of the $272
million, the Federal Government 33jo and the
Province of Ontario 27;. Again AECL is
responsible for the design of the nuclear portion
of the station.
Last year, Ontario Hydro announced that it
was proceeding with two additional units thereby
raising Pickering's capacity to more than
2,000.000 kilowatts and making it one of the
largest nuclear stations under construction in
North America.
According to present plans, Pickering and
Douglas Point will be supplying power by 1973
equivalent to the electrical requirements of
two million Ontario homes.
When the Douglas Point plant experienced its
teething problems, critics immediately accused
Hydro of being too bold,of gambling by putting
all its nuclear eggs in one basket. Evidence to
date however, suggests that our approach has
paid off. In a period of about 15 years, the
Canadian -designed power reactor has moved
from the concept stage, through demonstration
and full-scale application. Now the engineers
are confident that it will be a highly economic
proposition.
This view has been buttressed by a recent
prediction from a leading U.S. consulting engin-
eer, Alexander Kusko. Looking ahead to the
period 2000-2030, he stated, ` nuclear plants
using heavy water and breeder reactors will
supply all of the bulk power directly by cable
to load centres."
Ontario Hydro could have stood by and waited
for others to develop an acceptable system and
then adopted it. But it chose to go ahead in
partnership with others - it chose to go ahead
with a uniquely Canadian system which uses
as fuel the relatively inexpensive natural
uranium with which our province is so richly
endowed.
Ontario Hydro's objective is to obtain the
largest practicable proportion of its new re-
sources from nuclear energy. To achieve this
objective some major new commitments in its
nuclear program may be made later this year.
COAL BURNING GENERATING STATIONS
By 1970 Hydro's thermal capacity - coal burning
and nuclear - for the first time, will be greater
than its water power resources.
COSTS OF HYDRO
The average residential cost per kilowatt hour
in 1967 was 1.14 cents compared with 1.18 cents
in 1957. Average costs for commercial and
industrial customers have similarly declined.
Between 1949 and today when the cost of living
has risen more than 50% the cost of electricity
to the average municipal residential customer
in Ontario increased by only 12%.
ESTIMATES - DEPARTMENT OF LANDS AND
FORESTS
The Minister of Lands and Forests, the Hon-
ourable Rene Brunelle, stated that his Depart-
ment is responsible for the management of the
90yo of Ontario's land and water that is publicly
owned; for the management of the renewable
natural resources associated with the land and
waters; and for the provision of leadership
in the management of the privately ownedforest
land in the province.
TIMBER BRANCH
To provide timber supplies for the future and
to ensure continued economic growth in the
province, the Department has for years con-
tinued its forest inventory work and has been
stepping up regeneration and stand improvement
programs. Further increases will be made
during 1968.
In tree planting, the acreage covered will be
increased from 56,000 acres to 62,000. Simi-
larly, the planting of tubed seedlings will in-
crease from 18,900 acres to 22,000 acres.
The total area receiving treatments this year
will be 224,700 acres. This represents an in-
crease of 21% in the area treated and an increase
in the number of trees and tubedseedlings planted
from 64 million last year to 72 million in
1968-69.
This year the Department will lift and ship
from one of its tree nurseries the billionth
tree produced since operations began in 1905.
Research projects include the development of
equipment to automate planting programs and
such items as site preparation equipment, new
planting machines, and a mobile tubeling pro-
duction unit. The pre -breeding program of the
Department is concentration upon the develop-
ment of fast growing poplar and spruce for
Northern Ontario. In addition, the Province is
taking a lead in studies of forest fertilizers to
obtain rapid growth.
FISH AND WILDLIFE BRANCH
Last year, more than 2,000 acres were pur-
chased and the Province now owns 20,000 acres
of land which is being managed to provide habitat
suitable for wildlife of importance to hunters.
Realizing that hunting takes place for the most
part from September to February, it follows that
such public hunting areas will provide excellent
opportunities for naturalists, bird watchers and
other who seek outdoor recreation.
This program is still inks initial stages and
during 1968 it is expected that management of
public hunting grounds will be intensified at
Tiny Marsh, Nonquon, Brighton, Gananoque,
Long Point and Luther Marsh.
The second method of improving hunting on
private land is through the Landowner Assist-
ance Program.
The Deer Range Improvement Program on
Crown Land was greatly expanded during the
past year. Major programs were carried out
in the districts of Parry Sound, Pemborke,
Lindsay and Tweed, and extensive programs
begun in the districts of Sault Ste. Marie,
Sudbury, North Bay, Kemptville, Lake Simcoe
and Lake Huron.
The fisheries inventory now being expanded and
accelerated, will provide information for each
lake survey, including the species of fish pre-
sently produced, the area, the bottom contours;
biological, chemical and physical character-
istics of the water in the lake to indicate its
capability for producing certain species and
quantities of fish.
This year will see new emphasis directed
to asurvey of strategic lakes, which receive the
heaviest fishing pressure.
Certain key water areas which are large and
highly important for the fisheries production,
or potential, have been selected for intensive
fisheries management. These include Lake of
the Woods, Rainy Lake, Lake Simcoe, Lakes
Temagami and Nipissing, the Kawartha Lakes,

(Continued from Page 10)
and the Bay of Quinte. This year, the program
will be extended to Lakes Nipigon and St. Clair.
The program of expanding and modernizing
our 16 fish hatcheries across the provice is
proceeding as planned.
At the same time, the construction of new ponds
for the production of 1/2 million splake at ehe
Chatsworth rearing station is just about com-
plete. Renovation of the important North Bay
trout rearing facilities which will increase pro-
duction two to three times will be completed
by this fall .An experiemental fish culture and
training station to be located at Sault Ste. Marie
is planned and off the drawing board, while
a new hatchery to serve future needs in South-
eastern Ontario is in the initial planning stages.
The government is keenly aware of the serious
economic difficulties encountered by the comm-
ercial fishermen of the province and is endeav-
ouring to provide practical assistance. In
Lake Ontario, we are embarking on an ex-
ploratory fishery this Summer and Fall to
locate stocks of fish, and test trawls of other
fishing gear for an economic method of harves-
ting.
The Department is also continuing its invest-
igations of new species of kinds of fish for the
Great Lakes. The first planting of the fifth
generation splake will be made in Georgian Bay
in 1969, and they should become adult when the
effects of lamprey control there are first felt.
FOREST PROTECTION BRANCH
In 1967 there were 1465 forest fires which burned
over an area of 63,505 acres, well below the
average for the past ten years. As of the 1st
of June this season, the Department has been
involved in 846 fires, approximately twice the
normal fire occurence for this period, yet the
acerage burned has been limited to some 8,700.
Last year tests were made in the province
using various fire detection systems on different
areas totalling 50,000 square miles.
The Department's aircraft fleet has been
further updated with the addition of 13 newturbo
Beavers. Eight were purchased last year and
five more this Spring. When the last standard
Beavers have been retired, our fleet will con-
sist of 28 turbo Beavers, 10 Standard Otter,
2 twin Otters, and 1 Widgeon. All float aircraft
are fitted with water bombing systems.
Basic fire fighting training has been given to
some 1,300 northern Indians and 528 of these are
now employed on our regular fire crew teams
of some other aspects of Resources Manage-
ment.
OUTDOOR RECREATION - PARKS BRANCH
A master plan for outdoor recreation is
being prepared. This plan will show the pro-
jected needs for outdoor recreational facilities
of all types (and in considerable detail) for the
years up to 1980 and in a general way beyond.
It will form a major section of the master tour-
ist plan being prepared by the Department
of Tourism and Information.
The extent to which Provincial Parks were
enjoyed by the residents of and visitors to
Ontario during the 1967 season is indicated by
the following figures:
1. Total number of visitors rose to 10,192,533,
an increase of 4.1;, above the previous season.
2. The number of camper days rose to
2,805,143, an increase of 5.7 yo above the previous
season.
3. The number of persons attending interpretive
programs, such as exhibits, nature trails,
lectures, increased to 579,850, an increase of
6.45 above the previous year's record.
Twenty-six parks were equipped with trailer
sanitary dumping stations. By the end of the
season it is proposed to have 80 parks so
equipped.
Facilities are being completed to enable the
operation of two new Provincial Parks b
Northern Ontario. The first is located at
Missinaibi Lake, 50 miles by access road north
of Chapleau. The second is at Wakami Lake,
reached by access road 40 miles northwest
of Chapleau.
INDUSTRIAL REVIEW HIGHLIGHTS
ONTARIO LABOUR FORCE
Ontario's labour force grew by 4.2;' in 1967,
compared with 3.45 in all other provinces.
The total empolyed in the province rose 3.657,
to 2,745,000.
ONTARIO'S GROWTH
Goods and services produced in Ontario rose
to $24,900,000,000 in 1967 from $23,100,000,000
the previous year. This represented more than
405 of Canada's gross national product.
AUTO MANUFACTURING
A 55 increase in automotive manufacturing
in Ontario was recorded in 1967. Passenger
car production totalled 721,000 units, up 2.75
while commercial vehicles, at 226,000 units,
were 12,9970 more than in 1966.
ONTARIO MINING
Mineral production in Ontario increased 24,5;")
in 1967 for a total of $1,192,800,000. Nickel,
copper and iron ore were the main minerals in
terms of production value.

ONTARIO RETAIL SALES
Retail sales totalled $8,900,000,000 in 1967,
a gain of 5.1;over the previous year. Variety
stores showed the sharpest gain - ll;%J - while
at the other extreme, motor vehicle dealers
reported a 1/, sales decline.
FARM PRODUCTION UP
Gross value of Ontario farm production totalled
$1,400,000.000 in 1967, an 8% gain over the
previous year. Average prices received by
farmers were generally better than in 1966, with
vegetables increasing by 10 to 12,;;, in fruits by
Sir
ONTARIO INCO \IE
Total personal income in Ontario reached an
estimated $18,500,000,000 in 1967, a 9.5;-; gain
from the previous year. Per capita personal
income rose to just under $2.600, from $2.431
in 1966.
Boating 8 Speed
The wake created by thoughtless and incon-
siderate boat operators is the greatest man-
made hazard on Ontario waterways. This is
amply demonstrated every time you venture out
on heavily used waters during the summer
season.
The Ontario Safety League states that the
operators of larger, inboard powered boats of
the cabin -cruiser variety are the worst of-
fenders, and many of them fly burgees which
indicate they should know better.
It is just bad boating manners not to slow
down when meeting smaller craft on open
water, but when it is done in canals and
narrow buoyed channels it becomes an offence
under Canadian Law punishable by severe pen-
alties.
The six mile an hour speed limit in canals
and buoyed channels has been established for a
very good reason. Any type of vessel either a
displacement or planing hull will not throw
a damaging wake travelling at this rate of speed.
Increase this speed to ten or twelve miles
per hour and even the average outboard of fifteen
or sixteen feet will throw a wake that will be
dangerous to canoes and small fishing boats.
Larger boats will usually throw a correspond-
ingly larger swell.
The Ontario Safety League strongly advises
voluntary observance of posted speed limits on
out waterways - backed up by strict enforce-
ment, where necessary - for the good of plea-
sure boating and the safety of small boat users.

Bay Ridges News Highlights By Carmen Cramp
I understand the Handicapped Children's Swim
Program is underway. Swimriing is taught to the
children by Mrs. Monica Cook and members
of the committee every Tuesday and Thursday
morning and continues until the latter part of
August. There are approximately thirty child-
ren in the program and I am sure each and every
one of them get a great deal of enjoyment
through the summer. The swim program is
held at Mrs. Cook's home and transportation
this year is provided by the Dunbarton Kiwanis.
The committee also treated the children to a
picnic and each Christmas a party is given.
The Fairport Girl Guides had a marvelous time
camping out on the July 1st, long weekend.
After setting up camp on a rainy Friday the
weather turned warm and the 24 girls present
set about enjoying themselves. Captain of this
group is Mrs. Monica Cook, the Lieutenant. Mrs.
Norma Shuker, Mrs. Joan Duncan as well as
one of the Rangers were present to give a
helping hand. The girls set up tents in Mrs.
Cook's yard which is like a small park in it-
self and were also able to use and enjoy the
Pool.
The many committees, organizations and
children's activity groups in our community are
fortunate to have such civic minded people as
Mrs. Cook who so willingly volunteer their
energies, knowledge and facilities to make our
area a better place to live. To her, let me say,
"thankyou and remind you of the manyworth-
while and satisfying volunteer programs avail-
able to those who could assist by donating only
just a few hours of each week.
Our local junior ball club, the Bay Ridges
Shells, sponsored by i\t & J. Shell Service
Centre had a very successful tournament at Owen
Sound over the long weekend taking second
place. This is an annual event open to teams
Metro Bldg. Boom
Continues To Boom
Building permits issued in Metro Toronto
reached a record $263,599,536 in the first
five months of this year compared to $211,224,403
for the same period in 1967, according to a
survey by the Toronto Real Estate Board.
North York is considered to be the fastest
growing municipality on earth, according to
the TPEN report. North York issued permits
to permit $86.288,511 in construction in thefirst
five months of 1968 compared to $83,530,355
in the same period last year.
Scarborough granted construction permits for
$57,617,637 up to the end of May, compared to
$40,683,159 last year.
Developers in Metro have $2 billion in con-
struction projects underway or in the advanced
planning stages, the TREB survey concludes.
It all adds up to the most spectacular real
estate development boom in history in North
American cities.
Amon the projects now underway are "Metro
Centre ' a 200 acre redevelopment of the Lake-
shore railway area which will cost $250,000,000;
the Toronto Dominion Centre a $125,000,000
complex; a billion dollar "Harbour City" which
is an apartment -hotel -office complex on the
waterfront; $200,000,000 in high rise apart-
ments, some 40 storeys high; Robert Simpson
tower which costs $15,000,000; additional admin-
istrative buildings for the Provincial govern-
ment, a $50,000,000 hotel complex south of
the city hall, and many other developments.
North York has issued permits for 4050
apartment units, 338 semi-detached homes,
409 single family houses for a total of 4797
and Scarborough has issued permits for 2316
apartment units, 105 semi-detached houses and
858 single family homes for a total of 3279
living units.
up to the intermediate level. The Shells won
their first four games to gain a berth in the
finals only to lose to an excellent team from
Zepher. Their wins were all shutouts pitched
by Stu Higham. Coach Reg Lowry reports that
they will also be taking part in a tournament
on the July 13th, weekend in Oshawa and likely
again on August 3rd in Meaford. Remember
this team may be seen in action each Thursday
night at Balsdon Park. Game time 8.30 P.M.
PERSONAL OPINION
Took a jaunt around to the parks last week
to see the park supervisors in action. These
are certainly efficient young people and despite
a delay in delivery of equipment an excellent
program was carried out. In particular, Mitchell
Park, on opening day was swarming with youngs-
ters of all ages. Was certainly glad to see the
children using the park facilities instead of
playing in the streets.
The new maypole swing installed in Mitchell
Park has been damaged twice since it was
erected. The first time the pole was bent and had
to be straightened. The second time the pole
was completely sheered off and the swing had
to be removed from the park for repair. It
is too bad that the park equipment can not be
left alone and undamaged. Approximately $400.00
has been spent this season for repairs and a
much better use could be found for this money.
Have you tried the Greenwood Conservation
Area lately for an outing? This is alovely spot
for picnicking and I understand the creek has been
dammed up and a lifeguard is in attendance.
BIRTHDAY WISHES
Congratulations to Ann Ward, daughter of Mr. &
Mrs. A. Ward. On Saturday, June 29th, Ann
celebrated her birthday with her girlfriends on
a picnic at Greenwood Conservation Park. Heard
by all reports the girls had a great time, not to
mention 'Dad".
GET WELL WISHES
Glad to hear that Fay Mumford is now home
from hospital.
Nice to see Mr. Harold Johnson up and about
after his lengthy stay in hospital.
COMING EVENTS
Fairport United Church are having their annual
F all Fair on Saturday, September 21st. You may
look forward to hearing more about this coming
event in the weeks to follow.
BON VOYAGE
A very happy holiday to Mrs. May Palmer. She
has lived in Bay Ridges with her daughter and
son-in-law Mr. & Mrs. J. Watts for the past
three years and is now embarking on a trip
back home to England. Have a wonderful vaca-
tion, May.
Isn't it great to not have water rationing this
year. Everything looks so green, the roses are
blooming and the flowering plants are well on
their way. The kids are certainly enjoying
the sprinkler in the hot weather. By the way -
