NEWMARKET: Eight new teach- ers joined the staff of Newmarket High School this year, bringing to 33 the total number of teachers.

The Richmond Hill Indians went down to defeat last Saturday in the local park as some inept play on the part of the Indians set the Ghosts up for two majors. Two penalties gave the Ghosts possession inside the Richmond Hill thirty five'yard line. Some fine defensive play caused the Ghosts to kick on 3rd down, the ball went deep behind the goal line and was beautifully caught by Joe Martin. Joe, realizing he was trapped, lateralled wildly and the ball was recovered by the Ghosts for a touchdown. The attempted convert was blocked and the score was six to nothing after five min- utes of play. 7 Ray Conniff and his orchestra and Chorus.

Parents of the kinder- garten pupils are invited to at- tend. The Ross Doan School Field Day will be held on Wednesday. September 30th. The School Area Field Day wil be held in after- noon of Wednesday, October 7th at Thornlea School. The first Ross Doan Home and School meeting is slated for Mon- day, October 5th. Parents are in- vited to bring their children with them to see the interesting Dal- ziel Museum. The meeting will be at the Museum at 7.30 pm. and there will be a business meeting and refreshments when they meet back at the school. Late in the first quarter a very threatening Northwestern attack was broken up by a great pass in- terception by Joe Martin who leaped high into the air to haul in the bail. Martin has one of the surest pair of hands that this writer has ever seen. NEWMARKET: Council voted to install two new '1‘. P. radar sets as early as possible. These sets, it is said, are easily assembled, accurate in performance and do not involve any complicated oper- ation. About a minute and a half later Richmond Hill kicked to the Ghosts and little John Favery stole the ball out of the arms of the receiver and romped over for the lone Indian touchdown. In the second quarter the Rich- mond Hill offensive bogged down as the Ghost defensive unit really dug in, Bob McDonald nearly had his head torn off as he attempted to go through, center on a de- layed buck. R. H. Indians lose 18 To 6 In the third quarter the local team went onto the offensive for the first time in the game. Red Dunn was very effective in slash- ing drives around the ends. The Indians unveiled a very tricky double reverse play that was good fora twenty yard gain but ran into trouble as they attempted to use it a second time and lost val- uable ground. But there are others, creations of great beauty, that lie like pearls beneath the waters wait- ing for the hand of the searcher to find & luring them to the sur- face. Some of these, too, are on this record. Broadway in Rhythm Late in the second quarter the Indian punt receivers went to sleep as the Ghost kicker was al- lowed to regain his own punt on the Richmond Hill five yard line. Che plunge later they Were lead- ing twelve to six as the convert went astray. Rachmaninoff wrote many mag- nificent melodies, some of flu as famous as any in the world, as well known and as celebrated as it is possible for music to be. Some of these are on this record. A Richmond Hill kick was re- covered by Richmond Hill as the Northwestern receiver fumbled, giving the local team possession on the 5 yard line. On the first plan,' a bad snap put the Indians back on the 40 yard line and the Ghosts took downs. The Romantic Music of Rachman- inoff by Andre Kostelanetz and his orchestra jam Correspondents: MRS.

TAYLOR 94 Spruce Ave. AV; 5-4293 Richvale News ovér Possession on So they have come up with the idea that one weekend soon they would collect and take out for a wonderful day’s outing. and an adventure to remember, as many invalids of any age young as well as old and as many old folk as they can cope with. 30 to 50 Old Folk A minimum of fifteen cars and up to twenty-five can be provided by the North Toronto Motor Sports Club and other cars could be obtained it the requirements warranted. Ken Mansell says that they are planning for something like 30 to 50 old folk and invalids but does not want to limit the num- ber. He believes that if applica- tions went beyond the number his club could handle, then other clubs would come out to lend a useful hand. The Club meets on the lst and 3rd Monday of each month at Henderson Avenue School, at Thornhill, and will welcome new members to any meeting. The club is open to those who have an interest in sports motoring, and activities include discussions pertinent to motoring, exhibition of sports car films; rallies are or- ganized and races participated in. The driver members are ever The eighty-five members of the North Toronto Motor Sports Club of which the well-known local race team Shelton-Mansell are members, have been discus- sing ways and means of making themselves useful to the commun- ity. They have been wondering how they could direct their power- ful energies to some worthwhile commgnity project. This appears to be a wonder- ful project worth all the support local folk can give to it. Send In Names Please “The Liberal" office will be glad to receive the names and ad- dresses of any old folk who would like to participate in the'outing and of everybody else of what- ever age and of both sexes who are permanent invalids or who have been invalids for a long time. The otter is limited to those who normally do not have any oppor- tunity to take a ride out into the country. As Ken Mansell says, “If you have not enjoyed a Can- ‘adian fall, then you still have a wonderful experience ahead with the beauty of our grand country- side to enjoy". Fifteen To Twenty Can If you do know of some such person young or old, an invalid or not, here is an opportunity to bring to them one joyful day which will mean an awful lot to them and about which they will never cease afterwards to talk. ngjthwhlle Community Project ]ready to? assist? with driving skill OF OLD FOLK? Did you ever wonder how life seemed to them. bound in, without the daily opportunity most people enjoy to ride out into the country? Did you ever wonder how slow time might seem to an invalid? Have you a friend or a member of the family who seldom gets out of doors, or, if so, only as far as the front porch or perhaps the garden. One Joyful Day The District Commissioner exp'ressed her gratitude to the Guide and Brownie mothers for the wonderful co-operation and assistance that they have given to the Guides and Brownies of Thornhill and area. Margaret McTaggart-Cowan certainly knows her Guiding, as I found out during my conversation with her. In her native Vancouver, she had'the full benefit of Brownie and Guide training. She has also been a leader in both the Brownie and Guide movements. Since com- ing to Thornhill, she has served' as the Badge secretary for the Thornhill Guides for several years, up until her well deserved appointment as the District Commissioner. Her eyes sparked with interest as she talked enthusias- tically about the Guide movement. “Character building is our most important aim in Guiding,” said the District Commissioner. “We hope that we are training our girls to be good and useful citizens in several ways, for example, through earning their badges, they become acquainted with all manner of skills and crafts. Through camping they learn re-‘ sourcefulness and courage, two attributes that will serve them well all their life. In all their activities good team- work is considered very important. Lately, we ,have introduced the expressions, “Look wide”, and “See with your neighbour’s eye”. This simply means that the girls are being taught the advantage of friendly relationships at home and abroad. In this way we hope to make a real contribution to the peace of the world.” by Elizabeth Kelson Lately, I’ve had occasion to visit our charming and friendly District Commissioner of Girl Guides for Thorn- hill and area. Mrs. P. McTaggart-Cowan, our District Commissioner, Iivesmn Colborne Street, Thornhill, and has been an ardent devotee of Guiding all her life. “If only,” she said regretfully, “it wasn’t so hard to get more new leaders. Our present leaders are wonder- ful,‘ and Guiding to them has been a real labor of love but we have so many Guides and not nearly enough leaders to do them justice.” Then we talked about the River of Gold that will thrill the whole Dominion of Canada next spring. ‘ “The Guiding movement,” she related, began in St. Catharines in 1910, and it is now in its fiftieth year. To celebrate this anniversary, the Guides are going to plant gold tulip bulbs from one’ coast to the other. A Guide has already been sent to Holland to select and buy‘ bulbs for this great project. This fall, Guide Companies will be busy planting these bulbs in conspicuous places in their communities. Next spring, it will become a stream of golden loveliness across Canada.” “That is why we call it a. River of Gold,” she added. It wasn’t hard fcr me to imagine these beautiful golden tulips gracing the gardens of the schools and churches of Thomhill. We wound up our interesting conversation by talk. ing about the new Guide headquarters that has been planned and which will be built somewhere in Toronto. The Guide organization wants to buy or build a new headquarters for their very own, as they have been renting all these years. They call it their dream build- ing and they have a plan for raising the money to make their dream come true. The plan of their building is div- ided into square inches. There are 2,592,000 of them. Ten cents buys one square inch. The objective of each Guide is to use her talents to earn the sum of $1.50, as her contribution to the fund. Someday, in the not too far distant future, if the Guides have anything to say or do about it, this dream building will become a reality. ,. - DID YOU EVER 'STOP TO THINK OF THE LIFE j'eaf by Paul Delmer It is suggested that perhaps local merchants and the super- markets might like to join in the gesture by making some gifts available. It would not have to be a great deal but as we see it, these enthusiasts are offering -a wonderful treat to a large num-, ber of those who normally are restricted in their fun and en- joyment. Would it not complete their enjoyment to receive at the end of the day, a small gift, one for everyone? Now will you all pleaseâ€"those of our readers who know of any- one at all who ought to go on this day outing by car, full de- tails of which will follow in later issues of “The Liberal”, send names to the "Liberal" office, preferably in writing stating name, age and address of the person suggested. Remember it will be an absol- utely free day out and possibly t} :re will be a gift as well as re- freshments for every participant. The club will be glad to follow on with other projects and will be glad to receive suggestions for consideration. Such communications may be made direct to Shelton-Mansell Motors at Richmond Hill or in Thornhill. It is not essential to be the owner of a sports car to be elig- ible for membership but a defin- ite interest in the subject is a must. The current project is a public spirited gesture which could make a lot of people happy. Free Gifts Suggested If there are any who would like to participate in this way, please contact “The Liberal" and advise the extent of the contribution which can be made. First Day and Night Race The North Toronto Motor Sports Club incidentally was the first in Canada to organize a round-the-clock day and night race. This was the O'Keefe Grand Prix of July 4th last which was very successful. ' . ready to assist with driving skill tests and should the local police have any ideas for the construc- tive use of the club in this direc- tion. {{en says they will be very happy to coooperate. Public Spirited Gesture The majority of members are local people from Richmond Hill, Thornhill, Willowdale and from North Toronto. THE IIIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ont. Thursday, September 24, 1959' I! During the past few years in the course of development of this area a great number of the old and beautiful trees have had to be destroyed. Recently on Bay- view Avenue this had to happen in order forthe road to be wid- ened. Now the water mains are being installed along. No. 7 High- way east of Bayview Avenue, and as they came to the lot line near Mrs. Gordon's house, we anxious- ly awaited the fate of these trees to see if they also fell beneath the saw. Fortunately, though the con- struction company is going ar- ound the trees and it was so en- couraging to see that sometimes this can 'be done, and so preserve some of the natural surroundings. I am sure that anyone who has had occasion to walk the highway during the summer heat has been glad of the shade these trees and others along the way provide, and will appreciate them remaining there. Home 8; School News Mr. M. Hallman, School In- spector for T.S.A. Nd. 1 Mark- ham and Vaughan, elaborated on this a little and also discussed the coming split in the school area and the formation of the new one. He expressed the opinion that as so much depended on the school board elected that it was up to the parents. in the'best interests of their children‘s education, to get to know the people nominat- ed for trustees before casting their ballots. Mr. Hallman also spoke very highly of the new prin- clpaL The next guest speaker was Mr. J. Cantelon from CBC Children's Broadcasting Department. He has a great deal to do with the planning of TV and radio prog- rams for children, He said that parents were in a better position than those at CBC to select the programs they wanted their child- ren to view or to listen to, as each child reacted difierently, Calvary Sunday School \re-op- ens on September 20 at 10 am. There will be a warm welcome for anyone who cares to come. It will be held at Thornlea School, as usual. Local Development The first general fall meeting of the home and school association was held at Thornlea School on Wednesday, September 16. It was encouraging to see so many parents present. The president, Mrs. Wright called the meeting to order with the singing 'of the Queen. The annual graduation banquet will be held again this year. All grade 8 mothers will be asked for assistance to make this evening a success. Time and place will be announced later. A $25 schol- arship is to be awarded then to the student of highest academic standing. Plans were also laid for a fun fair to be held at the school on Saturday, November 7. Any sug- gestions concerning this would be appreciated by the executive. If anyone has any clothing to do- nate, they are requested to have it cleaned and mended before- hand. We are also hoping to get the square dancing tuition going ag- ain this year and parents are ask- ed to offer their services to aid in the Supervision of the child- ren. Last year an average of 60 children attended these classes so you can well understand the need for co-operation on behalf of all parents. Alan Castledine had the misfor- tune to break his arm during a football game last Week. Hope it soon heals for you, Alan. Sunday School Of all their camp experiences the most meaningful were the quiet hours spent in the wood- land Chapel and on Vesper Hill. In Hospital VMiss Kylie won the $2 parents' attendance prize. Mr. Kinsinger introduced the teachers. He asked that with the bad weather fast approaching that all the children's rubbers. lunch boxes, etc., be clearly marked. He also gave an outline of the level system: We are sorry to hear that Grant Crawfiord will have to spend the next month in the Hos- pital for Sick Children. Grant is under observation for an over- active thyroid condition. Maybe if some of the local children wrote him a letter or sent a card it would help to make the time pass a little quicker. Accident She and Joanne Wilson from Aurora have returned full of exci- ting and new ideas for their C.G.I.T. groups. The girls were able to participate in the follow- ing interest groups, Camp Craft, Bible Dramatizations, Photogra- phy, Enrichment for Living. and On Being a Real Person. The pro- gram provided an opportunity for fun and fellowship with 70 girls from all Ontario, in such events as swimming, sing songs, council house, and camp, fires. .
