2 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, February 28, 1957 The delicious smells of freshly home baked bread greet one upon entering the King City Bakery on King Street. The shop which was recently re-opened after necessary improvements were made is operated by Mr. and Mrs. Bob McLeod, well-known loca1_conple. *4â€" . 10 “_AA___1___ AvLuuvuu, u \Mrnuv n.- ava- -v at... Mr. and Mrs. McLeod who were married in December of 1946 have operated their bakery since 1948. Prior to her marriage Mrs. McLeod worked in bakeries in Toronto and Guelph. Since last spring she has specialized in making bread in large quantities. Mrs. McLeod experimented with various kinds of doughs to find the right texture and the type of loaf that would maintain its freshness. "‘I still get a thrill when I take the perfect fresh loaves of golden bread from the oven,” she commented. Mrs. McLeod skilfully manoev- ures a six foot pole to ,take the bread out of her large oven which was purchased last fall. The oven holds 80 loaves of bread at one time. The bread dough is mixed in a 60 quart cake mixer which mixes 36 to 40 loaves of bread at one time. The dough is set to rise in a bread trough before being placed in the oven. After baking it is placed [in racks which will hold 200 loaves of bread. The bread is not sliced or wrap- ped. "Wrapped bread is treated with a harmless chemical to pre- vent mildew as it is sliced and wrapped while warm as soon as it comes out of the oven”, stated Mr. McLeod. , Fame spreads With Tantalizing Aromcg The fame of Mrs. McLeod's bread has spread far and wide, as people come from quite a distance to buy it. One hundred and fifty loaves are baked for Saturdays trade, while an aver- age of 40 to 50 loaves are sold during the week. Expanding Dr. Law outlined briefly the purpose of the C.F.U.W. Firstly to encourage a sound concept of educational values, and espec- ially to encourage advanced study. To this end five scholarships of $1.500 and $1,200 have been est~ ablished in Canada. Dr. Law felt sure that “your group will ‘feel the urge in two or three years to establish a small annual schol- arship of your own " The second purpose is to arouse interest in political. social and cultural fields but in no way to become a pol- itical group. While the store was closed extra counter space and display counters were placed in the store and shelves and extra counter working area were built, where the baking is done. Some of the counters in the store were pur- chased from the original King _City Bakery, on Springhill Road, Mrs. W. H. Johnson To Head New University Women’s Club - A new group of the Univer- sity Women’s Club held its in- augural meeting at Kingcraft Hall, on February 19. Dr. Mar- tha Law, immediate Past Pres- ident of the Canadian Federation of University Women, told the 28 charter members assembled from King, Aurora and Richmond Hill that there \\ ere already 82 such group across Canada, from Nan- aimo to Charlottoun. Thirdly they hope to guard and improve the economic, legal and professional status of Can- adian women. Here Dr. Law told the story of how. with the con- certed efforts of the Y.W.C.A. and the I.O.D.E. they managed to have one woman appointed to the Civil Service Commission. “As more than half the civil servants are women, we felt it only fair that there should be at least one woman on the board nith nine or ten men." Fourthly the grou; hopes to foster a more under us; you. Woodbridge Reeve, Fred Arm- strong who was so critical of the strong- arm methods of the Metro Planning Board in regulating fringe development, called for an amendment to Bill 80 which established the Metropolitan Council and its subsidiaries.

A majority of Council gave hearty support to the proposals and it was agreed to forward a resolution to Queen’s Park. It was further charged that Metro has never given the fringe municipalities a chance to coâ€"operate.

In the first place, the local municipalities and their Planning Boards have virtually no power over their individual planning. Despitethe fact that the local councils are infinite- ly more familiar with the local planning problems and their individual needs, they have been usurped to the extent of a recommending body. . The original plan was to permit the fringe municipalities to share in an over-all plan. But in actual practice, the Metropolitan Planning Board has become a tyrannical form of governing body which has deprived local munici- palities of their democratic right to de- termine their own development at a rate compatible with their needs and re- sources. tion of the Planning _Bo:_1rd,‘thelre‘ha§ “Huh ‘4 There has been no indication from Queen’s Park as to the reaction of the County resolution, however, if some sort of consideration and relief is not forth- coming, stronger pressure should be put forth by the County Council on be- half of the local municipalities.

Following the discussion and disposal of business subjects by the “Father’s Executive”, Mr. W. J. Babcock of Richmond Hill High School outlined the plans for this years Day Camp, en- lightening the parents as to pro- cedure and registration. School Principal Mr. N. Davison gave a brief preview of‘the activities during “Education Week” March 3 to March 9. Gliest speaker was the Mayor of R chmond Hill, Mr. Wm. Neal, whose interesting talk on the ”History of Richmond Hill" was enlivened .by anecdotes, personal experiences and humorous com- ments. “Father‘s Night" proved to be a great success, an instruction- al and hilarious Weveniqguwher} .

As a final gesture. the “Fath- ers" demonstrated their profic- iency in handling all phases of their work by serving the reâ€" freshments â€" even to washing the cups and putting them away! Reeve Armstrong Criticizes Budget Reeve Fred Armstrong, of‘ Woodbridge, claimed this week Premier Frost's new Provincial budget aided only Toronto. “It may look good on paper but it does not do anything for the rest of the municipalities," he stated. The 'measly buck" accruing to municipalities on a per captia basis was more than offset by the jump in gasoline tax, continued the reeve. He said he would approve the budget, too, if his municipality was getting “millions of dollars” for expressway construction. Actors Are Not Mental Residents of Richmond Hill should not be too alarmed if they see quite sane and responsible people walking along Yonge St., apparently holding a serious con- versation with themselves! The chances are that they be- long to the Richmond Hill Cur- tain Club and are rehearsing for their new play "Harvey". Of course, most actors go through a stage of talking to themselves, but in this case it is a bit differ- ent because they are talking to Harvey. even though he is not actually with them. You see. Harvey is the principal player in this hilarious comedy and he's a little bit - well he's not - it's difficult to describe, so please see the play and find out exactly what we‘re trying to say. You'll have fun. Honest.

The Newmarketâ€"Toronto bound bus was attempting to pass a left-turning light truck. Rescue workers, police and Hydro staff had to brave the fallen and twisted high tension power lines carrying 27,000 volts, to cut through the twisted metal of the bus, to free the score of trapped passengers. Local doc- tors, Dr. W. Cameron Cowan, Dr. R. S. Ideson and Dr. J. P. Wilson were at the scene in a few min- utes, working to extricate the bodies, and treating the injured, who were then rushed by ambu- lance to hospitals in Newmarket, and Toronto." The showroom of Birrell Mot- or Ltd. Yonge Street, opposite the scene of the tragedyâ€".was turned into a temporary morgue and emergency hospital. Two persons were killedâ€"and 18 inj ured in a terrible crash in Richmond Hill on Saturday m_orn- Killed instantly were Mrs. Marion E. Bailey, 4'7, and her 8 year old daughter Jenifer, who were sitting in the right front corner of the bus. The terrific impact of the heavy vehicle crashing into the tree, caused the front end of the bus to be wrapped around the trunk of the huge treeâ€"literally fusing it to itâ€"requiring the efforts of tow trucks and the Hydro’s mo- bile crane to winch the bus clear from the tree, to enable the in- jured bus driver, Ronald Mc- Bride, 28, to be released, togeth- er with injured passengers. The force of the impact tore some of the seats from the .floor. and tilted other forward, hurling passengers into metal standards and against one another, strew- ing baggage all over the bus. Perhaps the graphic description of the tragedy comes from Mr. Bob Birrell, who at the time of the crash, was sitting in his of- fice beside the Showroom, right close to the scene. “Dear Mr. Editor’,’ Sugests Acounting Lot Fees Dear Mr. Editor: Subdividers in the past few years have been required to pay sums of $300.00 to $500.00 per lot to the municipality for use in public projects.
