Mr. A Blackburn of Yongehurst Rd. left for a five day business trip in MontreaL North Richvale News REAL VALUE Councillor Tom Broadhui'st said he thought it was time the members of council and people of the town had a complete re- port on the activities of the Industrial Commission. He moved that the Commission be ‘asked for such a report within a month. “We have not had a report for a long time and silence might be construed by . the public as meaning nothing was being done" said Councillor Broadhurst. (Continued from page 1) Industrial Report Council concurred in the sug- gestion. “I certainly am very interested to know what is go- ing on in that department" said Councillor A1 White. There doesn’t seem to be much on the surface he added supporting the plea that full information be giv- en to the people. Procedure Councillor Tom Broadhurst submitted a detailed report of the Administration and Proced- ural Committee with a long list of recommendations governing council procedure which was unanimously adopted. In com- mending -the report Mayor Hag- gart said it is an effort to streamline council business and he suggested that as experience recommended changes amend- ments should ‘be made from time to time. Councillor Broadhurst said he agreed with the Mayor’s suggestion. Council & Planning Boardâ€" One provision of the report was that all correspondence shall be referred to the chairman 'of the appropriate committee before presentation to council. After dis- cussion with the committee the chairman shall present it to council with the committee re- commendation at which point it will be deemed to have been formally presented to council.

Outdoor Rinks Two letters were received re- lative to outdoor facilities for skating. Mrs. Daphne Straumann, 376, Bent Crescent said adults and children thoroughly enjoy skating on the Mill Pond. Not many other communities are so fortunate as to have such a large outdbor surface for skating, she said. Her suggestion was that ho- ckey playing 'be confined to specified areas and others kept free for pleasure skating. A_ letter from the Public School Board suggested that in the event council is considering a permanent right of way from South Taylor Mills Drive to ser- vice the new park on Crosby Ave; such right-of-tway might be very conveniently located ads jacent to the west boundary of the Crosby school property. It was pointed out that if this could be done the walkway would ser- vice the park, and the school and would be adjacent to the school property. The suggestion was referred to the Property Com- mittee for a report. Car Wash Mrs. Donald M. Hay, 142 Dris- call Rd. claimed there was dis- crimination shown by the town in providing recreational facili- ties and was critical of town employees responsible for the rinks. Said Mrs.'Hay in her let- ter to council “I resent the at- titude that seems to prevail that hockey players must have good rinks. 'whi-le anything at all will do for those children skating for pleasure.” The letters were referred to the Works Committee for reports. Deputy-reeve Bradstock spoke in defence of Works Commissioner Whalen mentioned in' one letter. He referred to Mr. Whalen as a trusted employee. willing and conscientious.

(By Richmond Hill Naturalists) It was a very cold day. but brilliantly sunny for the Natur- alists outing on Sunday. January 22. We arrived at the fire hall_ around 9 am. and almost hoped that no one else would turn up so we could have scuttled home to our nice warm beds. However John and Gwen Lunn naturally arrived as they were leading the outing, and also Mr. and Mrs. Chambers and Mr. Bancroft. Thus three sparsely loaded cars took off from the fire hall south on .Yonge .St‘. along the Maple Sideroad and out into‘ the morn- ing. At the first few short halts we were disappointed -â€" maybe the birds were wise and had de- cided to stay in bed. We looked for hawks (various) all along the Maple Road and down Highway 400, but no, it was not to be, ex-_‘ cept for one Sparrow Hawk which hovered briefly on the east side‘ of the highway. However the hawks, somel Red Tails but pre- dominantly Rough Legs were waiting for us along 401 on the north side between 400 and the Streetsville Road. At this point there was a short walk â€"â€" very ‘short indeed, ‘along a wooded ridge â€" on which nothing was seen. On again, with the frozen walkers, to- S‘treetsville where John had told us we might see Long Eared and Short Eared Owls. When we saw them, know- ing John‘s affiliations, the thought crossed‘my mind that he had imported to the Matson‘s garden some "of the Museum's taxidermy. There were no less than twenty four Long Ears sit- ting cheek by jowl in some rather small weary looking cedar and spruce growth and they gazed back at the gaping mortals who were crouching on the ground a mere 20 to 25 feet away. We also noted- eight Short Ears 'in flight. We wok to the cars again and down to the Lakeshore towards Oakville where we started to.look for duck. It was difficult to pick out the different species because of the very bright shimmer on the lake so we decided to go to , At the January 30 meeting of the Vaughan “Township Council, the treasurer» Was authorized to pay Fire Department accounts to- talling $323.41 -'and Police De- partment accounts totalling $388.82. That the treasurer be authoriz- ed to pay general accounts in the amount of $6,346.53. {Passed a by-law authorizing Hayhoe Bros. and R.

MARCH BL 1961 99c the Cement Pier for lunch. After lunch we made a short trip to find Field and Tree Sparrows. They were not immediately vis- ible and we decided it was too cold to leave the cars and try to put them up. On along towards Port Credit where John Lunn’s knowledge of the district and the whereabouts of the duck really came to the fore. He has a won- derful facility for driving in be- hind apartment blocks and find- ing their parking lots. which are mostly on the beach; so he en- abled us to have an excellent view of everything from the cars. Along this stretch of the Lake- shore we saw Greater Scaup. Buffleheads, Golden Eye. Old Squaw and a few Common and Red-breasted Mergansers, plenty of Mallards and Blacks but no Ring-necked Duck. We didn‘t see all the duck we had hoped for and it seemed apparent that with the change in the wind and the weather the Birds had moved and . scattered. At Sunnyside there was a Glau- cous and Icelandic Gull and two‘ Greater Blacks Backs and the flock of half tame Canada Geese. We had looked for Snowy Owls all along our route with no suc- cess until we were at a ‘pull ofl’ at Sunnyside. There Lunn junior remarked there was a Snowy on the beach and of course there was. when it was pointed outrto you that the big \vhitcish rock down by the water‘s edge really was :1 Snowy. We finished our day by briefly touring Mount Pleasant Cemetery to see if we could find the flock oflabout sixty Cedar wax-wings with two Bohemians amongst them, as previously reported. There were a few Cedar wax wings. ' As you will notice. briefly fig- ures quite often in this brief ac- count but quite honestly an emâ€" ergence from a nice warm car took quite a bit of doing even for the hard'iest amongst us. Thanks to the Lunns we had a wonderful day and I personally say, in spite of the weather, let's do it again. May Avenue-Weldrick Road area, Richvale, has "agreed" to a four-H point compensatory program to A. Denault whose property was split in half by the construction of a drainageditch. Purpose of the agreement is to rectify a drainage problem resulting from the ditch which split the lot in half.
