As chairman of the finance committee, Mr. Whillans has a job that is not exactly a sinecure. Planning pool construction and selecting a site are comparatively easy tasks. Implementing the entire project. is something else again. Mr. Whillans is as enthuiastic about this project as it is possible for a human to be. He is not a starry- eyed dreamer but an intensely practical financial man who recognizes that it will not be an easy job 1 to raise the necessary capital. And he’s still willing to tackle this large undertaking. ‘ An initial meeting of the pool committee was held on Wednesday night of last week in Richmond Hill. The meeting was mainly exploratory in nature , and an attempt to set a common goal. Sites for the . pool were suggested and some definite action will be 1 taken in the near future to finalize the location of the pool. Committee members were of a somewhat 1 divided opinion as to whether or not an indoor or outdoor pool should be constructed. After some dis- , cussion they decided that an outdoor pool would be ‘ most practical at this particular time. No, it doesn’t necessarily mean that we’ll be " swimming in 21 Richmond Hill pool this year. There are a great many details to be ironed out and a lot of investigating to be done by several people. What it does mean. is that a group of citizens with a great interest in the affairs of Richmond Hill, are bound . and determined to see that a pool is built just as quickly as possible. If anyone is as vitally interested in getting a pool as these people are, why not contact them and offer YOUR help. project intended to benefit the whole area. directly or indirectly. A great many people have indicated in the past that a pool was important to them. Now's the chance to show just how badly we do want a swimming pool. As the plans of the committee solidify a great many people will be asked to contribute their support in one way or another. If, as has been indicated, the interest is there, then the eventual success of the program will be assured. It can be done. and with a lot of help it will be done. Success, if you'll pardon a pun, will be achieved through a pooling of ideas and resources. This is a very active committee and we'll be looking forward eagerly to further reports of their progress. They are working hard to benefit all and deserve the fullest support and complete co-operation of all citizens. The prime purpose of the pool, exolusive of pleas- ure and physical well being, will be the education of our children in water safety. With this end in mind we'd like to take the liberty of hanging a motto on the pool project. “SALUTES PER SAPIENTIAM" â€" Our shaky high school Latin thinks it translates as safety through knowledge.
