The site represents the largest single block of shoreline to be incorporated -into the 20 -year Metro Toronto waterfront redevelopment program that stretches west f rom Ajax to beyond Port Credit. The 81 -acre site, which includes 40 acres of marshland leading into the east side of French- man's Bay, is part of the 680 -acre nuclear plant site. A 15- acre. parcel within the new public park will be leased by the waterfront board to Pickering Township for a playground for organized sports including baseball ans soccer. The playground will be on the east side of Sandy Beach Road with the park and wildlife area on the west side. Forty acres of parkland will be landscaped by Ontario Hydro incldung the playground area. They will also plant thousands of trees and es- tablish four parking lotsMontgomery Park Road, running from east to west along the edge of the site, will be lined with sugar maple trees. The landscaping will include creation of apub- lic beach to the west of the nuclear plant, ar- tificial hills that will be vantage points for a view of the shoreline and lake in the summer and toboggan slides in the winter. No road or walk way will be allowed to infringe on the wildlife area. The Atomic Energy Control Board will rule on the exclusion areas to be established around the plant. Hydro officials said the 680 acres were purchased because Hydro fully expects to ex- pand the existing plant and possibly build a second nuclear plant to the east on the site. Construction of the plant began in 1965 and the station is scheduled to go into full operation in 1973. The executive of the Metro Toronto and Region Conservation Authority have also approved an $8,000 study to determine the suitable land uses for the lands in the Frenchman's Bay area. Young Resident Complains by Carol Hughes Ten -year-old Miss Mary Marr of Marinet Cres., Bay Ridges, has written Pickering Town- ship Council, enclosing a petition signed with 52 names, to get the swimming pool pro- ject underway "before some of us are too old to improve our swimming". Miss Marr pointed out the nearest swimming pool to her is two miles away at Graham Park, and says it costs her two weeks' allowance to go swimming there once. The petition was signed by other youn people, as well as many parents in the area. Township Clerk Doug Plitz advised Council on Monday night he had replied to the letter, in- dicating what had been done to date on the pro- posed pool, adjacent to Dunbarton High School.

Watson TELEPHONE 284-1767 Opinion What's The Alternative? by Shirley Tomlinson To strap or not to strap, that seems to be the question (with apologies to William Shakes- peare). Now that the Toronto Board of Educa- tion has voted to have the leather monster be- come a part of old Canadiana, perhaps one can be excused for being a little apprehensive and curious. I wonder what superior alternative will be used to deter or punish serious misconduct. Will would-be disruptives quake a little at the thought that their misbehaviour could re- sult in a kindly chat with a well paid psycholo- gist? I don't know about you, but I wouldn't lose any sleep over the prospect. But then, isn't fear as a deterrent to be avoi- ded at all costs? It has become a dirty word to many educators and trustees. when in reality it is one emotion that if controlled is healthy, necessary to survival and imperative to the maintenance of law and order. The great increase in the crime rate since the removal of capital punishment, is proof that unfortunately, fear is the only effective deterrent to serious law breakers. This may seem slightly remote to the less serious problem of disciplining children in our schools, but the principle is exactly the same in both situation. It is surprising that Toronto trustees acted against the apparent wishes of the majority of parents and educators in a foolish attempt to appear enlightened, even i efore they had con- crete plans for an effective alternative. Once again, Toronto Director of Education, Ron Jones proved why he was selected for his position, by suggesting that no vote be taken but that officials work tewards improving guidance and counselling services as an effective replace- ment for the strap and thereby eventually phase it out of use. Two years ago when discussions arose regard- ing the use of the strap, Scarilorough trustees and officials advised principals to use the strap only as a last resort, as had been their practice anyway. At that time, principals, tea- chers and parents groups asked that the strap be retained. At a recent meeting of the Scarborough Board, Trustee David Ower. asked "if Scar- borough would follow the lead of Toronto and if so what effective alternatives would our schools be employing". He asked that a brief be com- piled of the comments of teachers and princi- pals during the past two years of limited use of the strap. It was suggested their comments two years ago and their present day comments might prove interesting. The Board has improved its guidance and coun- selling services and methods during those two years, but is still short of the personnel needed to do an effective job. Certainly profes- sional help is needed for the small number of students whose unacceptable behavious is caused by deep emotional problems. The strap is of very little use here, because it simply doesn't reach the problem. Personally, outside of a temporarily sore hand and a slight feeling of humiliation, both of which were forgotten the next day, I suffered no permanent damage or bore no grudge against my teacher. I knew I deserved it and I believe that is the way things are with most nor- mal children. It is to be hoped that the views of the teachers and principals will not be confined to a se- lected few at a private Board session, but that they can be made known anonymously of course, to the public. . . , ^ t ; , , .'-IN Parkland Good News by Councillor Don Kitchen Ontario Hydro has agreed to lease approxi- near future so that work can begin this year, mately 80 acres of land north and west of its and the park ready for use in 1972.

Two Local Cabinet Ministers In a minor federal Cabinet shuffle last week, by Prime Minis- ter Trudeau, two local Members of Parlia- ment were promoted to Cabinet positions. Robert Stanbury, Member of Parliament for York -Scarborough was promoted to Minister of Communi- cations, replacing Eric Kieran. who resigned that post last spring. Mr. Stanbury, 41, was previously Minister without Portfolio with responsibilities for Information Canada and Citizenship. M a r t i n O'Connell, Member of Parliament for Scarborough East, was appointed Minis- ter Without Portfolio. He will have respon- sibility for Informa- tion Canada and help Secretary of State Ge- rard Pelletier withdu- ties of his department. Mr. O'Connell was Parliamentary Secre- tary to Regional Ex- pansion Minister Jean 'Marchand before his promotion. Elected in 1965, Mr. Stanbury is a gradu- ate of the University of Western Ontario and Osgoode Hall Law School. He served as chairman of the parliamentary com- mittee on broadcasting films and assistance to the srts, and as par- liamentary secretary before becoming mi- The Earthworm by Don Wright (reprinted from Onto Away back last October we had some snide remarks to make in these columns relative to English humor and the Britishers' over- developed concern for the health, happiness and mental well-being of creatures such as the earwig and the great tufted auk. During the course of our dissertation we lampooned one fellow's distress over the plight of the lowly (as opposed to upright or tall) earthworm. We thought he had things out of perspective in de- manding that "all games on grass" be cancel- led because he once saw "a beautiful earth- worm killed by a rugby player's i:oot". As it turns out, he may have been right. In zny event, we have received a letter and some fascinating background material from a F=ort Rowan lad)' which suggest that the noble and ancient worm family ( its history goes back 50 million years) has a lot going for it. Well-known for its ability to aerate and e. - rich the soil, the earthworm, we are informed has the rudiments of a brain and can be educa- ted. Furthermore, once he digs a thing, he never forgets. Some worms are smarter than others and an authority of renown, from the University of Michigan has discovered that dull worms can be fed better educated worms and thereby acquire most of the smarter (but less fortunate worms' knowledge through cann0alism. Logically, the professor will now try to determine whether or not the same process Conclude Tour Summersounds 71, a group of 35 enthusiastic young Ontario musicians, will conclude their 4,000 -mile, five-week tour with two perfor- mances in Toronto on August 28th. In the afternoon they will give a two-hour concert at the youth pavilion at the Canadian National Exhibition. In the evening they will repeat the performance at Ontario place. Three trumpets, one trombone an assort- ment of guitars and other instruments and more than two dozen voices make up the en- semble which plays folk, rock, jazz and popu- lar music. The program is designed to suit all age groups. Much of the material is original, penned by musical director Dave Walden and other mem- bers of the group. The opening number, Hel- low Ontario, is a Walden original. During their tour the group visited 35 On- tario communities from Red Lake to Brock- ville.

Even without an education, our correspondent poi its out, the earthworm can do a number of things you and I would be hard-pressed to emulate. For one thing, it is the highest animal to retain the ability to rege,.erate its part if severed. Cut a worm into several parts. she tells us. and within, two weeks each severed section fully develops all the vital parts it needs inclu- ding a head, eyes, mouth" and a remarkable variety of sexual parts." This brings us to another io:teresti -,g facet of the earthworm's physiology whic.t, is far Leyond human versatility at this point i:, time.

Each day ;;rings word of new successes on the scientific fro ;t, but failures seldom make the headlines.A recent item from New Jersey proves the exception. Man has been unable to devise a machine able to out -perform his own nose as a smelling device. Speaking at an odor pollution conference, a Massachusetts chemist reports that "the human nose as a detector is still at least 1,000 times more sensitive than any ma- chine detector so far devised." And that little gem could just put us on the track of a quarter of a million dollars. The British Columbia government is reportedly of- ferir:g this tidy little sum to anyone who comes up with an effective and economical method of eliminating pulp -mill odors. So far, no one has been successful and we suspect this is because their efforts have been misdirected. They've been concentrating on the mills rather than the nose. Now if we can just find a way, short of germ warfare, to de -activate the old sniffer, we'll have it made. In actual fact the human proboscis is far too sensitive to cope with the enbironment as It is developing today and it's time some thought it is developing today and it's time some thought was given to improving the adapia:jility of the species through, selective breedi,.g.

That seems to be all you hear about all year round. What with playoffs in April, banquets in May, General Meetings in June and early registrations in July, there's just no getting away from it. Your Executive, once again has been kept busy making hay while the sun shines, and holding a few executive meetings, so that things are pretty well on their way towards another successful seasom. Sponsors have been lined up as well as Most coaches, managers and trainers and pre -sea - 'son practice times are all set at our own Don Beer arena. Teams as yet, though, have not been selected as final registrations, slated for Sun. Aug. 29th from 1 to 3 p.m. at Holy Redee- mer school, is expected to bring an onslaught of new faces. So for those who missed the early registration, get there early and avoid the rush. Hey! have you heard? Our first dance of the year is just around the corner. Better get your tickets early for this one set for Sept. 25th, Ajax community centre. More on this at a later date from your "Quiet Corner". Report From Queen's Park by Wm. Newman, M.P.P. Ontario South HYDRO DECLARES PICKERING NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION "IN BUSINESS" Ontario Hydro has officially declared the first unit of Canada's biggest nuclear power station at Pickering "in business". The unit's testing period has been completed and the 540,000 kilowatt unit is now regarded as an integral part of the system in meeting the de- mands of the people of Ontario. When completed, Pickering's four units will have a total capacity of 2,160,000 kilowatts and will rank among the two or three largest nuclear stations in the world. The second unit is expected to start up towards the end of this year and the remaining two units will be com- pleted in 1972-73. WELCH BOOSTS SCHOOL CONSTRUCTION FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE Ontario has revised its capital grant plan for school construction to allow for increases in construction costs since the plan's introduc- tion in 1967. The tables used to calculate the expenditure eligible for grant have been in- creased the equivalent of about 4% a year. The revisions, coupled with a higher Depart- ment grant on debenture debt charges, will particularly assist boards in fast growing areas in providing vital school facilities at a minimal cost to the taypayer. Mr. Welch stres- sed that boards will not be allowed to increase the maximum expenditure for school building, but that a larger portion of this maximum cost will be eligible for grant. The changes will apply to the Board's 1971 construction programs. Under the revisions, the Department will pay grants averaging in excess of 905 of nine -tenths of construction costs. The basic plan covers new elementary and secondary school construction and reno- vations to existing buildings as well as se- condary school portable facilities. The plan will be adjusted annuail;' to keep pace with rising construction costs. MANY SENIOR CITIZENS GRANTED FREE USE OF PROVINCIAL PARKS Senior citizens who reside in homes for the aged will be entitled to free day use of pro- vincial parks under changes in The Provincial Parks Act. The present charge is $1 for a- dults. The change applies to senior citizens from homes for the aged established under The Chari- table Institutions Act or The Homes for the Aged and Rest Homes Act, and from appro- ved centres under The Elderly Persons Centres Act. There are 184 such institutions in On- tario. The driver of a vehicle carrying a senior citizen will simply have to show a letter on an institution's letterhead stating the senior citizen resides there. CARTON COLLECTS $1 1/2 MILLION IN UN- PAID WAGES FOR ONTARIO WORKERS Ontario has assisted 28,490 employees to col- lect $1,418,357 in unpaid wages and other be- nefits during the first six months of 1971. This was an increase of $412,630 over the same period in 1970. During the period, the largest collections were made under the regu- lation requiring equal pay for equal work. Ottawa Report Consumer and Corporate Affairs Minister Ron Basford has called upon the major Ca- nadian supermarket chains to introduce unit pricing in their stores. "I am convinced that the wide -spread use of unit pricing would be of great assistance to consumers, ' Mr. Basford said in a letter to the company presidents. "It would enable them .more readily to compare the relative prices of different products in the same category, and of different sizes of containers for the same product. This applies particularly to the types of products which are purchased fre- quently by the average consa n•�. Mr. Basford also wrote to all provincial mi- nisters responsible for consumer affairs, en- listing their support of his request to the su- permarket chains. At the Federal -Provincial Conference on Consumer Affairs last May, the Increased GO Service An increased service for football fans west of Toronto who use GO to the CNE will be made available for Thurs. Aug. 19th night's game, GO Transit officials an- nounced this week. An extra -nine -car westbound train will be provided at Exhibi- tion Park station to handle the post -game crowd, which on Fri. Aug. 6th exceeded regular service capa- city and amounted to nearly 2,000 people. To accommo d a t e fans travelling east af- ter the game, addi- tional equipment will be added to the regular post -game GO Train, officials said. A special football train leaves Oakville for the CNE at 7:10 p.m., and is followed by a regularly schedu- led train which departs at 7:30 p.m. The regularly sche- duled train from the east departs Pickering at 7:00 p.m. These trains supple- ment the hourly ser- vice to the CNE, Ontario Place and football stadium for those who want to ar- rive at an early hour. Flavorful Peaches Don't pinch a peach! The smart shopper se- lects peaches by ap- pearance. A peach must look good to taste good. Ripeness and soundness are the true measures of quality and flavor. The blush or rosy color of the peach is no indication of ripe- ness. Some varieties are very highly co- lored and have a rosy color before fully ripe. The important color is background color. When the peach shows a rich gold color be- hind its red, it will have the best flavor. A green ground color suggests that the peach was immature when picked. These peaches lack flavor and never ripen properly. The peach tends to shrivel rather than ripen, ad- vise food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ontario De- partment of Agricul- ture and Food. It is difficult to de- termine ground color of the red -skinned peaches, but a care- ful check of the stem end will reveal any tell-tale signs of green The firm peach with a fresh looking skin, good ground color and no bruises holds the promise of flavor -fil- led good eating. Thurs. Aug. 19th, 1971 THE POST Page 3 by Norman Cofik, M.P. MOUSE OF COMMONS CANADA ministers endorsed a call on supermarkets to engage in studies and experiments in unit pricing. Under the Consumer Packaging and Label- ling Act given Royal Assent June 10, 1971, the Federal Minister of Consumer and Cor- porate Affairs is specifically charged with carrying out research into unit pricing. "This provision means giving the shopper more information about the price of goods by stating the price per weight or measure as well as the total price," Mr. Basford explain- ed. The Minister pointed out that many super- market chains in the U.S. already provide price -per-unit information and that while pro- gress in Canada has Leen slow, one Ontario chain had recently introduce it. There is no doubt that this is a big step forward in assisting the consumer.

The Certificates can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar General in the Mac- donald ac- donald Block of Queen's Park. Only issued for those persons born in On- tario, they are retro- active to 1869, the year registration of births commenced in this province.

The Certificates, in either language, cost $2 each, with payment made by cheque or money order to the Treasurer of Ontario. Club Entertains Patients The East York Ki- wanis Club sponsored a Boat Ride for the patients of the Queen Street Hospital and the Whitby Hospital on Mon. Aug. 16th. One of the Toronto Ferry Boats was char- tered to take the 360 patients on a cruise around the Toronto Bay and out the East- ern Gap to Lake On- tario, past the C.N.E. grounds and Ontario Place. It was a two-hour boat ride in which the K i w a n i s members served cold drinks, potato chips and play- ed dance music. Five bus loads ar- rived at the ferry docks from the Queen St. Hospital and four bus loads cameinfrom the Whitby Hospital. This annual boat ride has been organized by the East York Kiwanis Club for the past 11 years under the Chair- manship of Bruce Gil- bert. Financial assistance towards this cruise was given by the Ki- wanis Club of West Toronto who also had four of their members helping on board. Pres. Jim McCo- naghy and Lt. Gover- nor Reg. Martin were among the 20 members from the East York Club. Dog Show The Chow Chow Fan- ciers of Canada are sponsoring an All Breed Dog Show for dogs of all ages on Sun. Aug. 22nd.

Coffee House Every Saturday night from now until the end of September there will be a coffeehouse in the West Hill Uni- ted Church.

So come, and bring your friends! Plant - Pansies Now Traditionally, flow- ers and brids are the first signs of spring. Instead of the usual crocus, daffo- dils and tulips, let the pansy be the first flower to brighten your spring garden. By planting pansy seed in August, this flower can be your signal of win- ter's end. Sow the shade -tol- erant in a well-pre- pared ground bed, pre- ferably in rich fertile soil. Do not plant the tiny seed deeply. Scat- ter seeds on the soil surface, then cover them with a light layer of sand. Keep the ground moist to aid seed germination and overwintering. Horticulturists with the Ontario Depart- ment of Aiculture and Food advise covering the bed with straw for winter pro- tection. Commercial growers usually plant their pansies in beds for ease in covering Transfer to a new lo- cation the following year is simple. Pansies are mose ef- fective in borders, foundation planting, rock gardens, andwin- dow hexes. Plan now to have the multicol- ored pansy brighten your garden area with large heavy bloom early next spring. Sid Ballik Plurinbing and Heating Contractor 11 types of plumbing sheet metal work.

Constructed shortly before 1850, the Half Way House originally stood at the corner of Midland Ave. and Kingston Rd. in Scarborough Township. Since it was located half -way between Dun- barton and the St. Lawrence Hall and Market in Toronto, the inn was appropriately named,and well-known for good food and accommodation. The inn in a typical pre -Confederation village would have had a busy bar, as travellers came and went, and farmers visited while their wives shopped at the general store, orwhile their grain was ground at the local mill. WEST ROUGE NEWS by Kay Brooks OUR "MR. CLEAN" He is not a big man - if we„are talking of `size', but `stature is a different word dealing with character, ability and reputation, and these can certainly be used to describe Philip Tor- rone, owner and operator of Rouge Hill Clea- ners, and the Rouge Men's & Boys' Wear. Phil, as he is known to his many friends and customers in West Rouge, has been an impor- tant part of the West Rouge Plaza since it was first built in 1956. In addition to his cleaning establishment, Phil decided to open a shop in 1969 for the purpose of selling men's and boys' clothing. This filled along -felt need in our area and he has conscientiously tried to keep the shelves and racks filled with good quality mer- chandise at reasonable prices. Another plus in favour of Rouge Hill Cleaners is the continuing interest in the community. Mr. Torrone never says "No" to local clubs, organizations canvassing for funds, or sports groups. Hockey and other teams have been spon- sored. prizes and donations have been given to many, and this warm-hearted Italian man has endeared himself to West Rouge. Assisting Phil, is Norm Taylor, a well-known Rouge resident, who handles deliveries, leaves 'the cleaning' when we are out, and even picks up the mail during the winter months for some of us with difficulties. With school days and fall activities fast ap- proaching, why not drop in and look over the new clothes, get summer stuff cleaned, and be all ready for the next season? In the meantime let's wave a bright, shining banner for Rouge Hill Cleaners! CANOE CLUB The Ontario Canoe Championships were held on Sat. Aug. 7th at Little Lake, Peterborough, Ont., under the sponsorship of the Peterborough Chamber of Commerce. Fourteen canoe clubs took part in the events, and these were divided into the Eastern and Western Divisions. The Mississauga Canoe Clui) led the Western Division with a total of 173 points. Mohawk were in second place with 10.1, and West Rouge third with 48. The three top scorers in the pastern Division were Carleton Place - 101 points; Gananoque - 66; and Rideau - 39. The Peterborough Canoe Club is the newest club of its type in Canada and we're proud to act as official hosts for the Ontario Canoe Ra- cing Championships, although they did not have any competitiors in the events. However, they have high hopes for the future, and the Best Wishes of other clubs in the Canadian Canoe Assn. The "Bob Cureton" Trophy, provided by West Rouge Cance Club in honour of the late Mr. Cureton, who was a most active and popular member of the club, was awarded to the \;is- sissauga Canoe Club whose paddlers have consistently scored the highest points this sea- son. A new trophy, presented for the first time at the Ontario Championships, to "The Most Valu - 2 Ac Paddler" in any of the clubs, was won by Jim Reardon of Mississauga. We think Rick Betts of the W.R.C.C. deserves a special mention for his fine efforts on be- half of the club, even on his wedding day' List of W.R.C.C. winners is given elsewhere in The Post. VOLLEY BALL The girls who play with the West Rouge Volley Ball Club have had a good season, with fine team spirit and great progress shown by some of the newer members. Arrangements are now beind made for inter- club competitions with the Pickering Volley Ball Club, and the first of a series of exhibi- tion games will take place on Sat. Aug. 28th at it a.m. at Sir John A. MacDonald School. These games will involve Seniors only, and the girls would be pleased to have a Cheering Section from West Rouge. Team Standings to Aug. 9th were as follows: Juniors: Robins - 29; Larks - 23; Doves - 20; Swans - 6. Seniors: Opals - 32; Pearls - 26; Emeralds - 13; Rubies - 13. Watch for more news about this club, with additional details regarding the Exhibition Games. WEDDING BELLS Congratulations and Best Wishes for every happiness to Mr. and Mrs. Rick Betts, who were married in Peterborough on Sat. Aug. 7th. Prior to her wedding the bride was Miss Sharon Currie. PERPLLXING PROGRESS Believe it or not, the revolting mish-mash at the entrance to what was once our quiet, attractive community, will some day be a complex network of overpasses, underpasses and super highways - all streamlined and beautiful by today's standards. And what many of us bought homes out here to get away from. So what to do? Join the club - complain and grumble and hope the value of property will go up. This is called "Progress" whether we like it or not. GREETINGS People with birthdays and other anniversaries are inclined to be overlooked in the summer and at Christmas time. Not intentionally, of course, but we do tend to get bogged down with vacation and other plans,and suddenly we are faced with "Susie just turned Sweet Six- teen?" - or "George can't possibly be 211" So let's do a little 'catching up' in our own area. Belated Birthday Greetings to Sharon Stacey whose special day was Aug. 14th, and to Katy Mackey on Aug. 16th. Happy Days ahead to Marie Carroll, Monica Hladik and Ron Mc- Intyre, Sr., who all celebrate on Aug. 22nd; to Anne Maclntyre, Jr. on Aug. 23rd; Bill Flem- ing on Aug. 24th and Wayne McConnachie on Aug. 26th. Anniversary Greetings go to Elizabeth and John Gomes, and to Susan and Gary Parent on Aug. 23rd; and to 'Guess Who' on Aug. 24th. NEW PUBLICATION Hearty Congratulations to William Earle, Pic- kering Litho -Print, on the splendid "Pickering Profile" which appeared at local news stands recently. We have read it from cover to cover and intend to ; ave it for future reference. The many articles and stories included in this publication make us proud to be part of Pick- ering. CANADIAN CHAMPIONSHIPS A number of W.R.C.C. paddlers and their families attended the Canadian Canoe Cham- pionships held in Dartmouth N.S. on Sat. Aug. 14th, some of them including the event in their vacation plans. Hope to have a few de- tails to report next week. QUICK TRIP Sorry there was no "West Rouge News" last week, but we dashed off to Montreal on a sud- den impulse. Would you believe we didn't even see that exciting city - still one of our favou- rites in spite of recent crime, scandal and Other unpleasantries. Most of our relatives and friends now live off the island and we were actually east, west, south and slightly north of Montreal with just glimpses from all the surrounding highways. Now back in good old West Rouge, we are frantically trying to catch up with local events and happenings. Please help. Just call 282- 8778 and tell of your vacation, visitors, group plans for fall, and whatever else you think might be of interest.

'Toronto 699-1121 United Fund Meeting On Aug. 19th The 1971 campaign of the Pickering United Community Fund is off to a great start. Final kick-off date is October 2nd and the organization and planning to ensure the success of this first campaign is well under way. Permanent committee headquarters have been set up in the Red Cross Building on Brock Rd. at the 4th Concession, and a full-time executive secretary, Mrs. W. Bowler, has been employed. Apart from her campaign duties, Mrs. Bowler is organizing the establishment of an Information Service. The Information Service is a first in the Pic- kering area. It will fill an important need which has not been available until this time and it is expected to grow in importance in the future. Enquiries regarding the Pickering United Com- munity Fund itself, its agencies, or assistance to people in distress are expected to form the greater part of the enquiries which will be an- swered. The telephone number for this Service is 839-1004. The co-chairmen of the campaign are John Coates and John Kruger. Other prominent citizens from all parts of Pickering who are al- ready lending their support include:- Mr. G. Deane, Mrs. Mary Loucks, Mrs. Mary Beattie, Mrs. Peggy Lockwood, Rev. Wm. Rhodes, John Pavey, George Clarke, Rev. A. G. Quesnelle. Mrs. Lyn Craig, Mrs. F.S. Hertzberg, Brig. J. Spragge, Douglas Plitz, Mr. B. Stubbington, Mr. M. J. Mowbray, Bert Mann, Bill Allen, Leo Connors and Mr. A.W. Tyas. , Committees to cover all aspects of the 1971 campaign have been established and during the campaign build-up in the month of September, the Pickering United Community Fund will become very visible. A gala float is being entered in the History in A c t i o n Day parade at Brougham. The organi- zation of a prestige beauty contest is nearing 'finalization and a lagre fun parade is planned for the kick-off date of Oct. 2nd. Speakers representing the Fund will talk to ser- vice clubs, organizations, ratepayers, andother organized citizens' groups in the Township. A total community support is beginning to develop and rural and urban residents are rolling uptheir selves together in a combined effort to make this first appeal an outstanding success. On Thurs. Aug. 19th, a special meeting of key people who will assist in the large residential canvass in the urban section has been arranged, and busy members of the Pickering Township Council will be lending their wholehearted sup- port to this effort. Organization co-ordinated meetings have been held with the United Appeal fund of Metro Toronto who is giving excellent co-operation to the Pic- kering United Community Fund. More and more agencies are signing up withthe Pickering Fund, as the momentum of the Campaign increases, and as the Campaign gets underway, even more are expected to join. To Lease Grand Valley Park Area Pickering Township Council has agreed to pay the hydro arrears of the previous tenant in the amount Of $291.38 subject to ob- taining a satisfactory lease agreement from M.T.R.C.A, on the area now known as Grand Valley Park. Councillor Vic Ru- dik questioned if it was necessary to rent this property from the Au- thority since they would maintain it any- way and the Township could still use it. How - by Carol Hughes ever the Recreational Director David Bass said some of the ac- tivities proposed for the site such as day camp and a camp site for the Boy Scouts on week -ends, would re- quire that the Town- ship get in there now and fix up the property in order to have it ready for next spring. He also said the Snowmobilers Club and Ham Radio Orga- nization have also ex- pressed interest in the Interested in Delivering The area and these activi- ties could all be car- ried on since they would involve different times of the week and seasons, as well as the site providing ad- ditional general park- land since the Town- ship would only be lo- sing the $1200 a year in taxes now paid by the Authority to the Township. Councillor Jean Mc - Person said the snow- mobilers are using the land anyway and she had received many PICKERING 1130S formerly "The BAY Weekly REPORTER in your area?
