(Continued from page 9) ‘most often the hard way, that a. ball down the middle spells home run or, at the very least, an extra base ‘blow. By the time O.A.S.A. Playdowns start these junâ€" ‘iors should have gained a lot of experience in a great hurry. Being forced to play to the limit of their ;capabilities to stay close to the other teams in the 'York-Simcoe League won’t do them any harm at all. :Most of us have had the experience of playing a game against someone whom we know is far more expert than we could ever hope to be. It doesn’t matter whether it’s hopscotch, checkers, horse-shoe pitching, rbowling or softball. Most people respond to challenge ’under these conditions, even if only to save face_ and ‘play better than they have ever done. The junior softball team will probably end up doing exactly the 'same thing. They’re going to absorb some fair beatings in the process and, if only they don’t discourage too easily, all will be well. We’ve needed a good junior ball club in Richmond Hill for a long, long time. Now we’ve got one and it is the hope of everyone connect- ed with local softball that they fare well. In the not too distant future it is to be hoped that players from {this team will make their way in to the ranks of an intlclermediate club or some higher category of soft- « a . â€" SPORT SPOTS â€"â€" Make a great big red circle around your calendar for June 20th. That Wednesday will be the annual Sports Parade in Richmond Hill on behalf of minor softball. There’ll be bands, floats, marchers, pretty girls, drum majorettes, pretty girls and â€" what else is there? The parade will form up at the Richmond Heights Centre, make its merry way down Yonge Street and then via Lorne Ave. to the town park. When the parade arrives at the park, prizes will be awarded for winning floats and then comes the big event of the day. Radio and TV personalities from this and the Metro area will clash in a real honest-toâ€"goodness softball game. For a while it looked as if the supply of good oftballers in the area had dried up. There just weren’t any new or young players around the area. At least that’s the way it seemed. Now all is chang- ed. The juniors are as welcome as the flowers in May and have restored our faith in the youth of the land. Theyfre not_all_ hot-rodders, Mabel -â€"- this proves it! Our only hope is that the boys hang together throughout the season and learn just as fast as they can. Coaches Joe Cornack and Al Webster have a lot of work ahead of them but they are both capable men. It all depends on the kids whether it goes or not and we sincerely hope that it’s a long go! Last year the affair turned into something of a kibitz but this year they’ll play a regulation game to win. Ted Curl, genial host of Hi-Time, will be play- ing. Ted is the Jack Paar of the younger set and is quite an entertainer in his own right. Annis Stukus, Johnny Esau, Tim Ryan and a great many others will be seen in action. Wonder if Bill Brady, the houswives’ Ann Landers, will happen along? As an old CJRH man he should be a big hit. And yes â€" the weal: mm was definitely intentional! ‘ It all adds up to an evening of real good family type entertainment with prizes galore to be given away. Every last thin dime realized from the event goes to further the cause of minor ball in Richmond Hill. The minor ball association embraces some 700 children and that’s a lot of hugging! This is an or-' ganization that deserves support and puts on a real show to earn the necessary funds to carry on. Dozens of people work like dogs to try to make the show an entertainment and financial success. Your sup- port gand attendance can help to ensure that success.

In the Aurora game the young players seemed somewhat ov- era'wed by the competition. Only two players seemed at home in the faster company, shontstop Duane Patfleld nan-d pitcher Les Downing. P‘atfield is as full of confi- dence as a chorus girl in a di- amond mine and Downing, des- pite having his offerings sound- iy tagged by Aurora. remained calm and poised throughout. Larry Guio came on in relief of Downing in the late innings and pitched workmanlike com~ petent ball.

The question of whether the township has given proper :thought to new subdivision de- ‘velopment in the area when there is insufficient water pres- sure to serve present homes, was another point raised._ “Any objections are welcom- ed," stated Chairman Maynard, at the outset. “This plan is only a proposal â€"â€" objections, in writing, will be given consider- ation."

EXTENSIVE Propenty of Mr. Al Stevens, of the Grand- /iew Ratepayers, asked: “Are you trying to plan far us what .ve don’t want, or are you pro- posing what YOU want? Speeding on Henderson Aven- ue is bad enough now, with a school in the middle. It is goingl to be a through street, and you‘ want to place a service station‘ and shopping centre here. To‘ any who travel it, the curve oni Henderson is very bad. High density population will add to the danger. I don‘t believe this is good planning." To this Mr. Forrest replied: “We must think of all those who will move to the area. Ev- entually there will be 16,400 people here. And we must have an efficient road system, for fire, police and the bread man." Mr. Dick Briggs. chairman of the Highland Park Rate- payers crountered: “We are con- cerned about the people who live here now. We objected when Grandview Estates went in, but we were told it was too late Another natepayer said: ‘We don't want a heavy traffic air- tery on a road which was not designed for it. Residents do not want a shopping centre at Henderson and Park. Anyone can walk to Yonge St. to shop." “Is it accepted planning, to- day, to put a service station and shopping centre next to a school?" another» questioned. -_ Forrest: “Yes” (citing W11- mington and Sheppard, and Bathurst and Sheppard shopping centres as examples.) Ratepayer: “This may be ac- cepted. but do W~E accept it? We don't want to be like North York!" To a question “Are these stores to go in definitely?" Mr. Forrest replied -- “No â€"â€" it is in the planning.” Here again it was emphasized by Mr. May- nard: "Comments from ratepay- ers to the planning board should be in writing.” Object To Apartments “There has not been a meet- ing yet where I haven’-t heard 0 b j ec ti o n to Meadowview Heights with high rise apatit- men‘ts a n d semidetached homes,” said Mr. Forrest, stat- ing that the planning board be- lieves the apartments, along the C.N.R. right-of-way will form an effective sound banr'ier to residential homes in the neigh- bourhood. “We have been told thesé multiple dwellings will not be self-sustaining tax-wise.” com- mented a member of the aud~ ience. ’ through street fmm Steele‘s xvenue to John St. Ienderson Ave. Mr. Forrest: “Scarboro will tell you they cost money, and Oakville says they are money in the bank!” Another pointed out the ap- artments will be particularly noisy because of the railway. “I suspect the reason for ap- antments here is to sell land for the builder." Land Once $4700 - Now $40,000 Per Acre of ' the land under discussion purchased it for $4,700 per acre and it was zoned R-4. It was explained that ordgin- ally Hour ygars ago) the owner When the C‘NR expropriated a portion of it for the by-pass. they paid injurious affection of $315,000.00 or approximately what the owner paid for the whole parcel. But Mr. Forrest assured those present the buil- der’s profit to date is not exor- bitant. However, according to_ one ratepayer, if the land is re- zoned for apartments, the val- ue will be raised to $40,000.00 per acre, and he asked “WHY?” To a question: ‘Do railroads not call for greenbelt bufiers? Who is going to benefit from high rise apartments?" Mr. Forrest stated: It is in the in- terest of the residents â€"â€" the sound will boom across his area if there is no barrier. Dissatisfaction In Doncaster Donoaster residents express- ed dissatisfaction with the plan- ning board and the township council. “Before the GEM store was established, we objected to access through our area â€" but all in vain‘ We were promised Precision, Repairs Pay Ofl‘ To You We make all repairs with the precision born of long experience.
