The remaining two thirds must be found locally. The large portion of this has come from the most generous grant of $1,180.000.00 by the County of York. This money is derived from county debentures supported and amortized by annual levy. based on an equalized assessment, on the fourteen con- stituent municipalities of the county. It was assumed that $500,000.00 could be raised by dona- tions and subscriptions the result of a fund raising drive. Taking into account the sums that could be raised from these four sources together with safe and well secured bank borrowing, to provide for inventory, pre-opening expenses and working capital. on amount was arrived at which could be spent to provide the greatest number of beds and facilities at this stage for the active treatment care of the people of the area. , , lush. _-..r__a THE COUNTY OF YORK UNITED HOSPITALAAPPEAL It was assumed that $500,000.00 c tions and subscriptions the result of a Taking into account the sums in: these four sources together with safe borrowing, tp provide for _inventory, p A#_:___.I -.._ v---.v_ - .

The entries were either group or individual projects and were from grades 7 and 8. Kleinburg school had the most entries with three group projects being submitted and seven individual entries. Klein- burg also won first and third prize for their group projects. Soil conservation was the basis of the first prize winning pro- ject. The work of Janet Met- calfe, Lynda Glass, Ken Mc- Kay. Walter Duda, Carolyn Se- dore and Gordon Ball. demon-‘ strated by means of water- color paintings the effects of poor soil conservation pract~ ices and examples of good con- servation methods. These pic- tures were posted on a vertical board, while at the base were two model farms. complete with houses, barns, fences, creeks etc. The one farm showed the result of poor soil conservation while the other showed good practices such as contour ploughing, strip farm- ing and a farm pond etc. Two grade 8 boys. Bill Al-l cock and Donald Sproule, won second prize for Thornhlll school in the group projects. Their entry was a working m0< del of an oil well. Third prize went to Klein- burg for a display of various Instruments used in forecasting weather. These included a hair hydrometer, a wet and dry bulb hygrometer, an anemometer. weathervane. wind speed indi- cator. etc. These had all been' neatly handcrafted and above! Federal Grant ,.

This exhibit was the work of Robert Raebum, Michael Sergovitch, Wayne Leach. Lynn Bevan. John McNeil. Roderick Hogg, Pamela Berton, Heather Reid and Keith Burbidge. First prize for an individual project went to Alan King of Charles Howett Public School for his demonstration of the operation of a two transistor radio. The component parts were separated and labelled but joined by wire and the whole was operable. Edward Vankerk of Powell Road School won third prize for his project illustrating the operation of a toy direct cur- rent motor. Here again, the va- rious parts were separated and ; their function explained. Second prize in this group was awarded to Michael Carter for his exhibit showing the stages of development of a chick. combining drawings, photographs and preserved specimens. The chickens pro- gress was shown from the ear- ly embryonic stages to a ser- ies of excellent photographs of a mother hen with her chicks. Striking Exhibit One of the most striking exhibits in the entire show was an entry by the grade 8 class of Powell Road School. Illustrating the formation of 19 constella- tions it consisted of a large black circle of board, about a yard in diameter, stud- ded with pieces of plastic rods of various diameters arranged in the pattern of the constellations. Each constellation could be lit up individually by moving a labelled switch. The 19 switches had all been care- fully cut from galvanized metal and each had been Action That Won. Hornets Place In OMHA Finals; March 28. 1963 An action-packed moment in the game that saw the Richmond Hill Hornets trounce the R.C.A.F. Trenton team 6-4 to Win their way into the O.M.H.A. finals. Next to meet the victorious Hornets will be winners of the Leamington-Ingersoll series. In their hard-fought contest with the Trenton R.C.A.F. team the Hornets lost the first game to their opponents on their home ice in Richmond Hill, evened the score up with a Win when they played the R.C.A.F. team in Trenton and then came through to win the best of three series on theirown ice in Richmond Hill last Sunday. County Council most rewarding. It brought about the formation of the York County Hospital Commission for the co-ordinatlng of all hospital services. active treatment, chronic and conval- escent care within the county. It also brought about a joint effort in the public appeal for funds by donation and subscrip- tion. A joint steering committee was established consisting of members of both hospital boards. The steering committee with the help of the “Community RelatiOns Consultants" headed by Mr. E. Antognini established the principals of the drive. ...- r. n, , We Jere most fortunate in Mr. Ray Marshall's gracious acceptance of the very great responsibility as chairman of the campaign. The campaign is continuing and fer a very good reason. In establishing the plans for our hospital certain items were left out in order that the maximum number of beds could be provided at this stage. These items can be conveniently added as money becomes available. The number of beds in the county with a population of 112,000 stands now at 113 - this is one bed per thousand. 0n completiOn of the extension of the hospital at Newmarket and the new hospital at Richmond Hill there will be a total of 389 beds or 3.4 beds per thousand. The safe minimum is 5.5 beds per thousand. Taking into account the increase in pepulation plus the summer influx of people in the holiday area the two projects now under way will provide about half the required number of beds. vw.r,_u Mr.7Marshall enlisted the services of patrons. chairmen of the various committees and members of the team. The drive was under way and the results to date are u follows H Thus there is need for every dollar that can be found to provlde_ active treatment beds and facilities so urgently i'equired 7 r - The executive committee of the united hospital appeal has now handed back to the two boards the reeponslbihty for the Advance Canvass National Corporations County Corporations Service Clubs . . . . . .

Community Campaign Another interesting group project was from a group of grade 8 students at Thornhill school who had made a neat model of an aerial view of a town, bridge. etc. illustrating how a river forms a delta. Llnda Graham, Myra Bloom and Lynda LaRivlere, all grade 8 students at George Bailey School had a colorful display of a miniature bird station. It included painted relief models of six different types of birds, blrd house. feeding station, etc. Cattle and their products was the subject of the exhibit en- tered by the grade 7 and 8 class of Jefferson school. It in- cluded posters illustrating the various types of cattle, and containers of such dairy pro- ducts as milk, butter, cheese, ice cream, powdered milk, etc. as well as examples of leather items made from cattle hides. Although they were not tech- nically allowed to enter the fair. the Burlington rural school showed a project that was the joint work of grades 6 and under. This was a most ambitious model depicting good and poor conservation practices by means of two mo- del farms side by side, the one illustrating reforestation, selective cutting of woodlot, a shelter-belt, farm pond, etc. The other farm illustrated what happens when none of these good practices are fol- lowed. This was certainly an Good Farming Practice wired to a light bulb be. hind each separate constel- lation. the light from which ehone through the small sections of plastic rod.

There were also leaf and mi- neral collections, 3 display of various types of crystal forma- tions, stages in the growth and manufacture of cotton, a crys- tal radio set, and numerous o- ther exhibits. The majority of the projects illustrated some facet of the grade 7 and 8 sci- ence course while others re- flected the interests of indivi- dual students. The fair, as a whole was cer- tainly impressive. The interest shown by these students re- flects the stimulation they have received from their teachers and from the course of study.
