This is the second store to be opened by Roberts Radio. During the past 15 years they have successfully operated an appliance store in Toronto. Mr. Douglas Is looking forward to having an opportunity to serve the people of the district with fine products backed by excell- ent service. Fair Day m Richmond Bill will be Saturday, May let. Prize lists for this big event in the life’ of the community were dis- tributed this week, and the Fair this year promises to be bigger and better than ever. Entries are already coming in for the Horse Show which will be the main attraction, and there will be many other attractions for young and old. The Roberts' store which is lo- cated at 46 Levendale Road is featuring a full line of nationally advertised home appliances, TV and Hi-Fi. Such nationally ad- vertised products as Westing- house, Philco, Philips and Inglis are all carried in the Roberts’ store. Something new this year will be a square dance competition open to public and separate schools. A trophy has been den- ated by Mr. C. Bennett and there will be cash prizes for the winners. ‘ IAN DOUGLAS â€" photo by Lagerquist The latest addition to the local business community is Roberts Radio located in the Richmond Heights Shopping Centre.

Meetings Twice Moonthly President Toutloff announced that Civitan meetings would be held every lst and 3rd Tuesday in future and unless otherwise announced the rendezvous will be at The Richmond Grill. Incoming Vice President Ted Shaw indicated that he would be attending the forthcoming con~ vention with his wife. Reeve is Guest Speaker President Ivan Toutloff intro- duced the guest speaker, who, he said, “needs no introduction." Guest speaker was Reeve James W. Haggai-t, if his performance Monday is any indication he will steadily improve his popularity as a speaker. He demonstrated a rare gift, when he delivered an informative speech with brevity. Future of Richmond Hill The Reeve took “The Future of Richmond Hill” as his topic and rather frightened the gathering by producing the seven pounds volume known as the “Metro Draft Plan" together with notes. "Thought that would get you" he chuckled, “I believe you thought this was my speech.” (Laughter and relief). Roberts Radio Latest New Store Many Attractions At Annual Fair “When discussing the future of VOLUME LXXXI, NUMBER 45 Richmond Hill town council Monday night took no definite action on a request from resi- dents of Harding Blvd, that rear of Yonge Street lots fronting on Harding be re-zoned as restdon- tial. At present the zoning is commercial and David McLean owner of a lot on the north side of Harding just east of the ser- vice station is proposing to erect a three store building. Donald Plaxton and J. R. Rey- craft appeared on behalf of a number of residents strongly pro- testing against su‘ch commercial- buildings and asking for ne-zon- mg. It was stated that in other areas such as P-leasantville and Crosby Avenue when residents raised objections council had gone ahead with re-zoning. Mayor Tomlin said he was not directing his remarks particularly to the peopie on Harding Blvd. but he did want to point out that when the Land Use by law was adopted all property owners were notified and had an opportunity to raise any objections. At two public meetings there was an at- tendance of only about twenty five people, he said, urging that people should take more interest in such matters. At the Don Head Farm, a little seeding was done April 22, but then poor weather curtailed seed- ing operations and it was a week later, on the 29th, the work got under way again. Thanks to mo- dern machinery however a rela- tively lot of seeds can be sown in short order. Contrary to fears and expec- tations, winter wheat is doing very well, and does not seem to have been effected by the ex- treme winter weather felt in this area. Compared with last year, seed- ing time in 1960 for local farmers got off to a very late start. Richmond Hill with you, I would like to paint two pictures." “The first is a picture of Rich- mond Hill sometime in the fu- ture, if we are left alone to do our own planning, without in- terference from those who are competing with us for industry, and perhaps will have some- thing to be jealous about.” town as he visualized it in the future, the Reeve continued, “Richmond Hill should in the forseeable future, expand to be- come a city with a population of forty to fifty thousand. And if your elected representatives have learned anything in the past few years, there is no doubt that the majority of our population will be working within our boundar- ies. We are aware of the fact that subdividers can be made to either supply industrial land to the municipality to sell, or be made to produce occupied industrial acreage before being given per- mits to build houses. If this had been done when the boom started in Richmond Hill, today we would have had a balanced ass- essment, less unemployment. hap- pier merchants, and been receiv- ing taxes from industries as well. I know that it is easy to criticize others. Perhaps I would have made the same errors if I had been there. Protest Commercial Building One Picture of the Town Seeding Time Late WinterWheatFine But my only purpose in point- ing out this fact, is to emphasize that all those in public office from now on must benefit from the mistakes of others, by insist- ing that future development be more orderly." Vaughan Council Chamber Packed Talk Race Track, Roads, Liquor Council Reserves Decision Mayor Tomlin paid glow- ing tribute to the public ser- vice rendered by the late Mr. Rice as a member of mun- icipal council and planning board. “He was a good citiz- en, and gave outstanding ser- vice to Richmond Hill” said the Mayor. On motion of Deputy-reeve Stanley F. Tinker, Richmond Hill Town Council passed a resolution of sympathy for the family of the late J. H. Rice who died suddenly last week. Painting a word picture of the Sincere Tribute was pointed out that the Councillor Mrs. Margaret Southwell did not think the lot fronting. on r Harding . lent [itself for commercial development. She said everyone in the area took Land Use by law is not easily understood and that people in the area assumed that it was only Yonge Street frontage which was commercial. Reeve Haggart said he sympa- thized with the people in the area even though the trouble was of their own making. He thought however council should seek per- mission of the Municipal Board to carry out re-zoning. it for granted that only the Yonge Street frontage was com- mercial. David McLean owner of the property was present and dis- cussed the problem with council. He gave assurance that he is most anxious to co-operate in finding a satisfactory solution to the problem. Several solutions were mentioned, one being that the owner be given permission to erect a small apartment build- ing. ' Discussions are to continue and Mr. McLean will visit council again next Monday night when it is hoped there may be agree- ment on an acceptable solution. The Reeve then made a revolu- tionary thought-provoking sug- gestion “At this time I should like to interject the thought that one other method of area de velopment be considered in the near future. To a point, I believe that municipal boundaries are ex- pensive, and with this thought in mind I suggest that it may be beneficial to the population of our entire area if Richmond Hill, Markham Township, and Vaugh- an Township were to merge into one municipality. I suggest that this avenue be explored very carefully, and, of course, if such a merger did come about, it would change everything that I have just envisioned." Second Picture of Town “The second picture I Would like to paint is that of a small Town of 18.000 of 19,000 popula- tion, the largest percentage of which will be employed in Mer Toronto. Why do I paint this pl'c- ture as a distinct possibility?

The drive is timed for Friday, May 13th and the students‘will sell ball point pens door to door. All the proceeds from the sale will go towards aiding an un- fortunate family living out its days in a refugee camp in Europe. It is hoped to raise some $700.00. - Following the example set by their fellow students in the Metro area, students of the Richmond Hill High School have volunteered to assist in a fund raising drive as part of a plan to sponsor a Refugee Family in Rich- mond Hill.

Student Refugee “Blitz” May 13 “In Essentials Unity; in Nonâ€"Essentials Liberty; in all things Charity” HOME PAPER OF THE DISTRICT SINCE 1878 SINGLE COPY 10c is timed for 13th and the sell ball point of the largest manufacturers of Go-Karts in Canada told council that Go-Karting is a much mis- understood sport, that it has re- ceived adverse publicity which has not been justified and this has set people against it in some places. Highlight of the evening was easily the discussion on Go-Kart- ing. Soon everybody in Vaughan Township and the surrounding area will be either participating or watching this sport in the Township if a delegation of spon~ sors making representations to council achieves its purpose. Prince Phillip “Avid Fan” He went on to demonstrate by the production of colourful, in- teresting and informative mat- erial including glossy pictures, magazines, both British and Am- erican entirely devoted to the sport, and press reports that it was a very highly thought-of sport, that little danger attached and none in properly supervised conditions, that it was patronized in many countries, that Prince Philip was "an avid fan” who is Mr. Gerald A. Patterson who introduced himself as President Mr. Douglas H. Storms, Rich- mond Hill, Chairman of the provisional Committee planning a new Hospital for this area an- nounced this week that the com- mittee’s application for a Charter has received tentative approval of the Ontario Government as of the date of April 25th. Monday night was an exciting evening for those who' attended Vaughan Township Council meeting. More than fifty people did so. Not since the delegation of ratepayers which requested the liquor vote last February has the Council Chamber been so crowded with every seat taken and some ratepayers still standing in the adjoining hall. But two councillors were absent. They were Councillors Anstey and Ralph. The Charter will be in the name of the York Central Hospi- tal Association, but this in no way indicates that the new Hos- pital when built will be known by this name. Mr. Storms said the local committee plans an early meeting to form a Hospital Approve 1 Charter To New Hospital in This District Richmond Hill Town Council Monday night gave final approv- al to an agreement with Mark- ham Twp. to supply water for the new Dominion Store being erec- ted just south of the municipal limits. Councillor Broadhurst continued his opposition and vot- ed against it. “It’s a bad agree- ment” he said. Go-Karting New Sport Seeking Site For Track TownAgrees Sell Water To Markham Richmond Hill agrees to sup- ply water for the new store un- til such time as the new well is developed by the Ontario Water Commission for joint use of Rich- mond Hill and Markham. Rich- mond Hill will charge double commercial rates for the water, and reserved the right to reduce the supply if the demand inter- feres with needs of Richmond Hill users. Councillor Mrs. Southwell and Councillor Howard Whillans sup- ported the motion after clauses were inserted specifying the sup- ply is for one store only, and that it will terminate as soon as new well is developed. Councillor Mrs. Southwell was skeptical. “Looks like just getting a foot in the door" she said. Councillor Bradstock who re- frained from voting on the issue said a solution might be for Richmond Hill to annex the com- mercial area. Mayor Tomlin said he was against annexatibns with- out prior consultations, with the municipalities concerned. He told council it is now com- mon in Britain, France, Australia. the U.S.A. and that 'it is growing in Canada. Mr. Patterson claim- ed there are more than 3,000 Go- Kart owners in the Toronto area with nowhere to go, no track to attend that is within any reason- able reach of the city or within its own boundaries. He said that an increasing number of councils were now passing by-laws to per- mit the Sport and these included Whitby which had allowed a track on No. 12 Highway, Stanford, Ni- agara Falls, Oakville and Will- oughby. Police Chiefs’ Approval now teaching his daughter, "Prin- cess Anne” the sport, that world renowned journals have written highly of its attraction as a sport and described a phenomenal rise in its popularity across the world.

The manufacturer agâ€" reed that it was undesirable Go- Karts should be used on the pub- (Contmued on page 3) Association which it is hoped will interest several thousand members. Heads of all organiza- tions will be invited to attend the organizational meeting where it is hoped to have representa- tives of all churches, service clubs, lodges, women’s clubs, farm bodies, labor unions, and in fact every organization in the en- tire district. The aim of the committee is to make the meet- ing as representative as possible of the whole community. Chairman Storms addressed a special meeting of York County Council last Thursday evening when he outlined local plans for more adequate hospital accommo- dation and discussed with County Councillors possible methods of organization and financing. In a forceful and able presen- tation Mr. Storms deplored the fact that here in the banner County of York Hospital accom- modation is much below the min- imum requirements. He made a strong case for a new approach to the whole problem of Hospital building and administration. Af- ter several weeks study of the local situation Mr. Storms con- tended that the old method of passing the hat to provide hos- pial costs is not satisfactory, and suggested that the whole problem be approached with the County as a unit. Mr. Storms stressed the urgent need for more Hospital beds. “People are dying" he said “while waiting for admission to a Hospital due the acu'te lack of accommodation." Many others he said are sent home from hos- pitals before they are fully re- covered so beds may be made available for urgent cases. To solve the problem of Hospi- tal financing and place it on a fair and equitable basis Mr. Storms suggested a complete sur- vey of the whole County. and when needs and best locations are recommended that financing necessary be by tax levy. York County Council members displayed keen interest in the problem, and adopted unanimous- ly a resolution recognizing the need for more Hospital accom- modation and asking the two ex- isting Hospital Boards to ar- range for a survey and present a report with recommendations at the June session. The resolu- tion was presented by Deputy- reeve Norn Garriock of Wood- bridge and seconded by Reeve Clarence Davis of. Aurora. Councillor Whillans said he saw little in the budget for the benefit of people west of Yonge Street, and he thought this was unfortunate, especially when the Works Committee budget pres- ented last week was open to the same criticism. “I feel strongly that the people on the west side deserve consideration as well as people in other parts of town. Our children need a place to play ball too,” he said. Councillor Bradstock defend- ed the budget and pointed out that when park sites are avail- able they will be developed on the west side. He said there is a 3% acre site in the Griffin subâ€" division which will be park land, but it is not yet ready for devel- opment. Councilor Whillans - We should start in making some provision for parks on the west side. “It’s hard to justify to the people of the west side the kind of budgets we are bringing down,". he said. He contended they are weighted very heavy for the east side. Councillor Asks Better Deal For West Side Town At Monday night’s Richmond Hill Town Council meet- ing, Councillor Howard Whillans took exception to the Parks Committee budget presented by Chairman J. W. Bradstock because it did not give sufficient attention to the west side of town. Councillor Tom Broadhurst ex- pressed the opinion that a coun- cillor is not rendering useful ser- vice in emphasizing divisions which we hoped were disappear- ing. 9 Councillor Whillans - Take a look at last week's budget. Mayor Tomlin - Final adoption of items in the budget by the Finance Committee will not be influenced at all by the location of the projects. We will do those things which are needed and it will not matter whether they are east or west of Yonge Street. Two Polaroid Cameras will be given free to the lucky winners. One Polaroid will go to the per- son whose name is on the coupon drawn from the drum, and an- other will go to the merchant whose name is stamped on the back of the coupon. Councillor Whillans - We shouldn’t determine the spending by which area makes the most noise. There is a weekly prize of $5.00 in merchandise every week to the person whose home is pictur- ed in the special advertisement. Last week’s winner was Mr. J. Todd, 30 Elmwood Ave.. Rich- mond Hill. Participating merchants in the “Home of the Week” contest in- clude: Patti-Lu Ladies’ Ready-to- Wear, Rice’s Flowers, Collins Hardware, I. D. Ramer & Son, Lawrie Hardware. Ketola Power The first draw for prizes in the Polaroid Home of the Week con- test will take place at “The Lib- eral” Office Saturday afternoon, May 7th, at 2 pm. Joseph Lemmon was spokes- man for a delegation of Lynect Crescent Ratepayers at Monday night's Town Council meeting and asked council when action may be expected on a petition presented last year asking for road widening and the construc- tion of storm sewers. Mr. Lemon pointed out that the existing ditches and road shoulders are most unsightly. He thought the people should have some financial consideration in such a proposed improvement be- cause of the $500. per lot ass- essed against the sub-division when it was developed. He con- tended this assessment which should have been spent in the area was used for expenditures in other parts of town. Participating merchants are asked to have all coupons in our office not later than Friday night, in preparation for the draw which will be made in public. Mr. Lemmon stated that while the people wanted the roads wid- ened and ditches eliminated they were astounded by the estimate for this kind of work and in the light of the tax increase last year and prospect of another this year he doubted if the people could afford it. Ratepayers Just Can't Tighten Belts Any More Mayor Tomlin pointed out that the $500. per lot was assessed for municipal purposes and was spent for projects which Were de- signed to benefit the whole of Richmond Hill. He mentioned the addition to the municipal build- ing, purchase of new fire truck, construction of sewage dispOsal plant as examples of what had been done. Mr. Lemmon said “it was our money” arguing that people who bought homes in the area had their purchase price increased by this amount. He didn’t think it was intended to subsidize the whole community with this mon- ey. Mr. Lemmon said the roads now are unsightly and the ditches are an eyesore. He was critical on recent work done and said if this is a sample of the service ren- dered a tax increase is not jufi- Polaroid Draw On Saturday, May 7th Protest Tax Boostsâ€" Mayor Tomlin - We’re getting quite a bit of noise from the west side tonight. Counciilor Whillans - We must consider the whole picture. Councillor Broadhiirst said he didn't think Mr. Whillan’s re- marks reflected any credit on the impartiality of his fellow connv cillors. Councillor Bradstock - Every- one here has been elected by the people on the west side as well as by people on the east side. At the suggestion of Reeve Haggart an item of $12,500. was added to the Parks budget for development of the Mill Pond area “It's located west of Yonge." said the Reeve. “Yes.” said Councillor Broad- hurst,” and it’s proposed by a council member who lives on the east side." The Parks Budget amounting to $41,314. was referred to the Finance Committee 'for consider- ation on motion of Chairman J. W. Bradstock.

He agreed with the delegation that some of the No. 2 account had been used im- properly. Mr. Lemmon was critical of an expenditure from the No. 2 ac- count of $50,000. for the new Library. “That was something we could have done without" he said: The delegation was critical of the garbage collection service. Often collection is a day late and Em]; collectors “are not too carg- u .!I Mr. Lemmon urged more ac- tivity to procure industry. Mayor Tomlin said the town engages an Industrial Commissioner and 15 spending $12,000. a year in this department. A special Industrial Committee of council has ‘been appointed. Reeve Haggart Chair- man of the special Industrial Cémmittee saitf he hoped for results soon. ifiMfii‘liLéx’nmon said the people are fed up with tax rinqrgases. _ Mayor Tomlin said rising costs make tax increases necessary and this is the experience of all mun- icipalities in this part of On- taro. Councillor Whillans said Coun- cil should take steps to make serviced land available to in- dustry. With a tax increase likely for this year this may not be the time to do it, but it might be the thing to do next year. “We should be willing to pull in our belts and pay $50. or so a year to acquire land and make it av- ailable for industrial firms" said Councillor Whillans.
