To Hold Annualfy‘g Party June 23rd.‘§§1 Mr. Ben Shek, a teacher at Thomhill Secondary School was a guest on CBC’s “701” show on June 5. Mr. Shek, who has done a good deal of radio writ- ing for the CBC, was discussing an incident which took place in Canada around the time of the Fenian raids when a group of Polish immigrants to the United States, under the impression that the Canadians were in need of “liberating” crossed the} border to set them free, but were apprehended and subse- quently hanged, in spite of their defence by Sir John A. Mac- Dona-1d formed before the war and while he was there with the Ai§_Force during the war. Mr. and Mrs. L. V. Kenny of Calvin Chambers Road were re- cently hosts to the Willowdale Unitarian Fellowship when the Fellowship held an auction sale in aid of their building fund. At this point, Mr. Mikl‘a‘s in- formed council that he has al. ready invited three Lenders on construction of a new water tank for water area No. 1. and expects this week to call tend- ers for 5,000 feet of 12-inch‘ main for Bayview Ave. Council approved a resolution authoriz- ing the estimated $135,000.00 cost of these projects to be paid from lot fees, paid to the township by subdividers. .

For those areas now served by sanitary sewers, a reduction ‘in summer sewer service rates was also approved by council. Normally, the rate is 65 percent of the water rate. However, since in the summer a lot of water goes into lawns. and not into sewers, the council esta- blished a summer period of May 1 to September 30. During that period, the sewer rate will be 65 percent of the winter water rate, plus 10 per cent of the winter water rate.

Harris) A ballet recital by the pupils of Doris I. Pollock was held in the Thornhill Secondary School on June lst. Mrs. Pollock has conducted these classes in her home on Grandview Avenue ‘for over ten years since moving into the subdivision. Most of the pupils live here although a} few now come from the new Gra‘ndview Estates and one little girl in particular is from Downsview. The audience was good, consisting conspicuously Robert Cummins of Richvale and Heather Barrett of Crestwood Road dance the Pas de Deux at the successful Doris Pollock Recital held at the Thornhill Secondary School. Talented Young Performers Linda Harris trying very hard to portray a little devil (which I am sure she is not) was beautifully costumed in the convincing red and black. Leica Hardy who travels irom Downsview, received two nose- gays for her performance “The Flame Dance” which was very well done. . Little Corinne Dockman per- formed like a professional even losing her hat. she never lost her composure as she twirled in the very convincing "Musical Top" wearing that delightful whimsical smile of hers. \ The colour harmony of the next number was outstanding “Va‘lse Arabesque" with Sandra Walker assisted by Marybet Priestman, Francis Bishop. San- dra Dockman, Susan Walker, Dorothy Godvson. Gretha Bis- ga-a‘rd, Pau‘li-ne Mitchell and lit- tle Corine Dockzman. The Dolly‘s Waltz with Eliâ€" za-beth Wojna in a qua-int long white dress with a pale blue sash and an old fashioned bon- net completed the costume and carried the audience right back to grandmother’s days.
