W. 8. 000K; Editor All-HIT! IRONING TABlE At a recent meeting of the Richmond Hill Public School Board, the Trustees called for greater coâ€"operation between the School Board and the Richmond Hill Planning Board in directing future development of the village. The Board members feel that insufficient informa- tion regarding proposed developments in the area is being received by them at present. ‘ With the rapid expansion of Rich- mond Hill which has seen the village’s population figures jump to more than 5,000, there is an increasing need for a greater liaison between the various de- partments of municipal government. Particularly in the case of education, the amount of development has a great effect on the activity of the School Board in providing schools to accommo- date an increased population. The rapid growth during the past year makes it essential that education offic- ials have a clear picture of the situaâ€" tion in order that school accommodation may keep abreast of the development.

Actually, bones are among the busiest organs in the body. They make red and white blood cells 24 hours a day, contain nearly all the body’s vital calcium and phosphor- us, and act as storehouses for reserve fats and proteins. On a weight-for-weight basis, bonesare stronger than steel. They are subject to breakage, however, and until recently bone injuries were dead- 1y serious. Today, brilliant new tech- niques for the repair of bones mean that patients with broken legs and hips can be active much sooner. Plates for fastening broken bones are made with metal alloys, including some types of stainless steel. While the former beef-bone plates were useful in minor breaks, they were not strong enough to permit a man with a broken Wit/I Iltis Ildndsome New NO MONEY DOWNâ€"TERMS TO' SUIT YOU7?7COME IN AND SEE US THE LIBERAL, Richmond mu, Ontario, Thursday.

If such a com- mittee is formed, it will provide a vital service to the School Board, particular- ly in glanning future school sites.

In this report which stated that the Richmond Hill Public School Board had turned down a request from the Richmond Hill Baptist Church for per- mission to use the Yonge St. school auditorium for Sunday Church Services, it was stated that “the board felt it wasn’t in a position to subsidize any group”. I would like to point out to the public that the board was not asked to subsidize in any way. We were prepared to pay all heating and' caretaking expenses involved in the use of the auditorium. This was made clear to both the chairman and secretary of the school board. Trusting this will serve to throw true light on our appli- cation, and the board's deciso ion, I remain, who will visit {11¢ Lions H511, November 25 and 26 “THE CHILTERN HUNDREDS."

Galbraith, Pastor Richmond Hill Baptist Church Dear Mr. Editor: I write this in the hope that you will print same and per- haps awaken the responsible authority into some action. Whitchurch Twp. Moves Nomination To Evening Deplores Poor Markham' Road Work Some time ago troad graders descended upon Concession 3, Markham at a point south of Headford and operated there for a ‘period of some weeks. When they arrived there exist- ed a pretty good road, but very poor ditch facilities apparently, they were to improve the latter. Now that they have left (quite some time ago) there is a very good ditch BUT NO ROAD! It is nothing short of a disgrace the condition that now exists. There is one stretch where one has to drive along the very centre, rather like driving a- long a rolling-pin with a sharp slide to each side into the afore- mentioned excellent ditch. When one meets another car it is a case of making a dash for it to get clear. When the snow arrives the road will be a writeâ€"off for it will become completely impassable. Those graders need to revisit and finish the job properly; they were in action long enough to eat the job. May I suggest that someone do something? In a move to obtain more interest in the coming township elections, Whitchurch ‘Town- ship Council in session last week approved a suggestion that the nominating meeting be held in the evening. in place of the afternoon gatherings held in other years. Council endorsed the idea of the later time when the view was expressed that workers. othre than farmers would thus be able to attend the nomina- tions. Councillor Wallwork felt that since the interest in elect- ions had not been too great in the last few years. the change in time would not lessen the interest, and might even help to arouse more response. Secondly I have noted that there is not a ‘School' sign on the same stretch of road despite the fact that the school rests on a crest of a hill with the attendant danger of children being hidden ‘just over the top'. There is however a ‘Cat- tie Crossing’ sign facing each direction so one must hope that motorists will slow up on this account and perhaps also miss the children in doing so. Once again authorities 1 suggest that some immediate action is call- ed for before some child Kis kil- led and the motorist takes ad- vantage of the fact that he was not warned by the usual sign. Yours truly, A. B. Griffin, “I R. R. 2 Gormley Councillor Richardson regret- ted the regulations ‘which stat- ed that if evening nominations were held, the time set must be 7 p.m., as he felt that this was a hardship on farmers who had evening chores to complete. He pointed out that the great majority of voters in the town- ship are farm dwellers, but endorsed the move as an effort in the right direction to get out the voters.

Masters and Bill Ferguson) THE EARL AND COUNTESS OF LISTER Distinguished Visitors James Mason as Brutus, lead- er in the conspiracy to assas- sinate the Roman dictator in “Julius Caesar”, the much- dis- cussad film version of the pow. erful Shakespearean drama. The Hollywood Scene: The long-awaited film version of “Oklahoma”! has had its prem- iere in New York City. Filmed in a new wide-screen process called Todd Oâ€"A, the picture is 25x50 feet and film runs for 2% hours. Made at a cost of 12 million dollars, it is expected to gross around 50 million dol- lars . . . Still unreleased is the film version of "Guys and Dolls" which should be another very hot item. . . . Meanwhile Ce- cil B. DeMille is entering the second year of production of his super spectacular “The Ten Commandments”. When you consider ten weeks and a mill- ion dollars is the usual cost and time in making a movie, this looks to be something big. . . . Meeting, to. start at 7 o’clock. Polling date was set for the fol. lowing Monday, December 5. with voting hours from 10 am. until 8 p.m. Council thus con- tinued the practice of extending the closing hour to enable work- ers in Toronto. and out of town owners to register their votes. A special picture has been brought in to play Monday and Tuesday, October 31 and Nov. ember 1 at the Richmond The- atre. CONQUEST OF SPACE is the fourth and last picture to be produced by George Pal for Paramount Studios. The first picture was “Destination Moon”, a semi-documentary picture that was more along ex- perimental lines. The picture was so well received that “When Worlds Collide” and “War of the Worlds,” followed. “Conquest of‘Spaée" is the lat- est and last one for George Pal, as the studio feels- it can no longer handle productions like this. Members also mentioned that many voters- complained that they did not know where to vote, and the clerk was instructed to place notices in the papers and to continue the practice of send- ing voters lists to stores anJ post offices. “Conquest of Space," like its illustrious predecessors. is a straight science-fictional movie. These movies extrapolate from the 'present into the future and deal with what might happen rather than what is or has hap- pened. We all know that the conquest of space is inevitable. Science has shown that the first step will be a space station circling the, earth from which rocket ships ca\n be sent to the moon 01' Mars. ‘ This picture deals with life on the’ 'space station (called The Wheel) and the trip from the space station to Mars and back. The' characterization of the actors is good throughout. Last Monday, members of Vaughan Township Council agreed ‘on the hiring of Fred Shaw of Pine Grove. as road foreman at a tentative salary of $1.50 an hour . .It was felt that the in- creased pressure of work on the Township Roads Depart- ment warranted assistance for ‘Road Superintendent Nelson Kerr, who has borne the full responsibility of the Road Department in the past. 'A p point Road Foreman The Wide Screen by NORMAN G. Man's Leg ,Torn Off At Mapleln Gravel Crusher There is plenty of conflict. sus- pense and excitement. Filmed in Technicolor, the scenes are quite beautiful and all technic- ally accurate since there are usually more astronomers and technical advisers on the set than actual producers. Lorne'Oster, 52, a resident of Concord received severe and painful injuries early last Tues- day when his right leg was torn off while working at the pit of Superior Sand and Gravel near Maple. BROWNE Police report that Oster had climbed into the stone crusher to free a stone which had lodged in the pipe; He became trapped in the machine and his leg was Severed at the knee. He was treated on the spot by Dr. R. A. Bigford and was then rushed to the North West Gen- eral Hospital. P.C.’s Wm. Ma’y- bury and T. Shields of Vaughan Township Police r investigated. Now here is a picture: Com- ing Wednesday and Thursday. November 2 and 3. it is one of the most outstanding dramatic motion pictures of all time. I am sure the motion picture based on the famous Shakes- peare play JULIUS CAESAR. needs neither introduction nor explanation. When first put in- to release, this picture was put on a road-show basis. There were‘ two showings a day, tick- ets had to be bought in advance and they cost in the neighborâ€" hood of $3.00 each. Even at that, the picture ran for over 10 months on Broadway. The plot of the story needs no explanation, the actors that portray the various roles are the cream of Hollywood and each turns in an outstanding performance. Marlon Brando plays Mark Antony, James Ma son is Brutus, John Gielgud as Cassius, Louis Calhern as Julius Caesar. Edmond O'Brien as Casca, Greer Garson as Calpur- min and Deborah Kerr as Por- tia. I might add that the picture is pure drama and almost pure characterization. There is lit- tle action or adventure as such and the picture definitely would not appeal to a younger aud- ience. For the young adult or mature individual, I would def- initely advise seeing this all- tlme classic. MAN WITHOUT A STAR, starrlng Kirk Douglas, Jeanne Grain and Claire Trevor, fol- lows into the Richmond The- atre, playing Friday and Satur- day. November 4 and 5. Here is a lusty, action-packed wes- tern movie that definitely would appeal to the whole iam- ily. All the ingredients to make a great western adventure are present. with two ranches fight- ing over control of grazing land, numerous gun fights, chase scenes and a thrilling climax of a cattle stampede. Filmed in technicolor for the wide screen, the action takes place across a beautiful scenic background. x- CDNSUlT US FOR YOUR . . .
