On our trip to the hall in the state- ly coach complete with chauffeur and Wes we were pleased to see so many friends line the Itreet and felt that the end of this mysterious ride could not be too terrible. On entering the hall to the strains of Mendels- sohn‘s march we felt more at ease as this recalled the occasion fifty years ago when we had heard that music before: it had not led us to any major dis- aster. We were reassured again on looking about the hall to feel that we were among friends especially when we saw the children of the LTB & 0 Home.

Year Of Service lflh'd' "h'l’kfilWim “The Liberal" had learned of the proposed annexation and development of land north of Elgin Mills Road between Yonge Street and Bayview Avenue two weeks ago and released the story last week. News of Richmond Hill's pmw posal to annex part of Mark- ham Township brought attacks from township council Monday night. “When a proposal to annex a large piece of land like this comes wp, we should be given a chance to sit in on some dis- cussions,” Mr. Mumberson stat- (Continued On Page 5) “In the past year Richmond Hill has been stressing their public relations and co-opera- tion with adjoining municipali- ties," commented Deputy-reeve Lawson Mumberson. “Now, when they are plan- ning to annex part of our town- ship, we find out about it through the press," he said. Reeve Wilfred Dean com- plained of the condition of the stream. “You can see the foam on it from Bayview Avenue," “The stream they are dump- ing the product of their sewage plant into is so polluted, even a muskrat can’t survive.” “If Richmond Hill does form- ally discuss annexation we should voice our opposition to it, until they clean up their present sewage situation,” Councillor Allan Summer as- serted. “Before they add more land, they should clean house,” he charged. VOL. 84, No. 17 “Clean Up Poflufion" Town Told Through this newly initiated scholarship the officers and members of the society are hopeful they will assist many young people prepare for a useful career in the important and challenging field of agriculture? The scholarship is donated by the Richmond Hill Agricultural Society, one of the oldest of such organizations in Ontario. With a history dating back 115 years, the society has through all these years sponsored the annual spring fair, and as well has promoted field crop competitions, farm improvement contests, livestock improvement pro- grams, and in many ways contributed to the gen- eral good of the community and agriculture in particular. The scholarship will start this school year and is open to students attending Richmond Hill, Thornhill and Bayview High Schools. Richmond Hill Agricultural Society will award a $100 scholarship for the highest standing of a student completing Grade 13 and planning to fur- ther his or her education by entering an agricul- tural course.

Mr. Sam Chapman, York Central District High School Superintendent also at- tended. Following their visits, the board had considered three pos- sibilities; starting French in Grades 7. and 8 in January, 1963, starting only Grade 5 in September, 1963, or discourag- ing it altogether. Of these three alternatives, they had favoured starting it in Grade 5 next Sep- tember. According to their es- timates, the project would cost $14,500 the first year and in four years, with oral French be- ing taught in Grades 5 to 8, the cost would be $55,000.00. Chairman of the Vaughan 3; School Area Board, Sam Kaiser 5: announced October 18 that the " hoard plans to start the teach- ing of Opal French in the town- ship schools in Grade 5 only in September of 1963. Mr. Kaiser advised that sev- eral members of the board and Inspector Gibson had observed classes in oral French at Oak- ville, Trafalgar Township, Eto- bicoke and Forest Hill. They were favourably impressed by the quality of the teaching and by the interest shown by the pupils. The reason the board favourJ ed starting in one grade the first year, two in the second. and so on, was that this would give them time to arrange for the integration of these students into the high school French] course. Mr. Kaiser noted that all the schools the board memâ€" bers had visited had made very; elaborate preparations for such high school integration. ‘ Three Key Problems From his experience in five years spent as principal of a high school in Etobicoke where this problem had been faced, Mr. Ch‘a-pman, superintendent of high schools for the area, outlined to the meeting the LEFT: The boiler room measuring 52 by 115 feet is fast taking shape with installation of the giant heating plant scheduled for next month.‘ RIGHT: A section of the ' west wingpn the first floor 7 that will accommodate the " physiotherapy department and maternity ward.
