Tor- onto businessmen Charles Dunn and Michael Sifton. that busi- ness and sports flying is here to stay. Evidence of this belief can be seen in the $300,000 renovation project now nearing completion at Buttonville Airport about four miles southeast of Rich- mond Hill. Together. the three men are realizing the fulfill- ment of a dream as they watch gnmbdern airport emerge from what was not so long ago a grass-strip flying field. The three partners. all interested in different phases of civilian flying. have combined their efforts and knowledge to make out of Buttonville Airport what promises to be one of the finest flying organizations of its size in Canada. Mr. Sifton. in speaking to “The Liberal" said that his particular interest in the ven- ture was based on a belief that there is a further need for charter air service in the Tor- onto area. He said that the in- terest of Mr. Dunn was in the field of executive flying. the use of private or company- owned aircraft as a means of transportation for business ex- ecutives. 7 The first concern of Mr. Ger- ace lies in the field of pilot training and clqp ppergtjgp. The airport, first established in 1945, now covers an area of 130 acres and when the new face-lifting job is completed it will boast one 3.000 foot long paved runway complete with night landing lights as well as two additional grass landing strips of similar length. Cost of paving one of the runways Mr. Gerace told ‘The Liberal' is $48,000. The runways, which are 100 feet wide also have fringe strips on both sides which are also 100 feet in width making the total breadth of the airstrips 300 feet. At the present time the air- port has four hangars capable of accommodating 17 aircraft and the two new hangars now‘ under construction will be able to house between 12 and 14 aircraft each. Landscaping of the project calls for a patio that will front the administrative buildings where visitors may watch the activity at the airport. Even the children haven’t been forgotten in the planning and there will be a fully equipped playground there’s OCEANS of HOT WATER instantly... The new service build- ings of the airport which are currently under con- struction will include an administration building and offices - the airport is a registered customs port of entry for aircraft arriv- ing from the United States - a pilot's lounge, flight planning and chart rooms, showers and dressing rooms, restaurant and ex- ecutive offices. A special feature of the airport building complex will be the inclusion of a ‘link trainer room’ in which act- ual flight conditions may be simulated for student pilots at the airport.

The administration building will be topped with an observation tower for those who prefer a bird’s eye view of the coming and going of the aircraft. And comings and go- ings of aircraft there certainly is at Buttonville. In addition to the 10 aircraft‘ that are the property of the company there are no less than 55 private aircraft owned by businessmen and sportsmen who use the facilities of the airport. To these will be added another 20 aircraft when the new hangars are completed. 0f the new aircraft that are expected to arrive shortly four of them will be twin-engined machines and the value of the new aircraft will range from $6,000 to $70,000, each. Executives who use aircraft stationed at the field for bus- iness purposes roll up about 2500 hours of flying time each year and students and mem- bers of the club total approxi- mately the same number of flying hours. Mr. Gerace told “The Liberal" that at the pres- ent time there are 100 flying students registered with the club. Diplomas For Piano, Voice, Theory Awarded Pupils 01‘ Miss Galrson Sunday afternoon graduation exercises were held for pupils of Miss Ruth Garson. A.D.C.M. at the Summit View Gardens. Proud parents gathered to watch their children receive di- plomas for piano. voice and theory. Seated at the head table with Miss Garson were Mr. and Mrs. Lesley Stanley of the Allegro Music Shop, Richmond Hill. Mr. Stanley,‘ well-known musician, addressed the gathering, stressing the im- portance of musical studies in enriching the every day lives of the students. He said that “by playing or singing one makes others happy as well as oneself." Awards were given to: Judith Jones, first for most improved student in a single season i the 11 years and over group; Cheryl Palmer, first for out- standing work from beginner to grade one and part of grade‘ two in a single season; Judith‘ Dodson, voice, and Janice Grainger, piano, tied for second place in the senior group; Bar- bara Freeman, second place in the junior group. For the sec- ond year in succession Patricia Shelton won third place in the senior group. i For the first time a tie was recorded for the scholarship awarded to the best all around student in all forms of musical training. The two excellent pupils were Geraldine Bruce, ‘13, and Robert Freeman, 12. Both students demonstrated their ability by performing on the grand piano. Geraldine chose “Concerto in F” and In the period of 12 years that Mr. Gerace has been associated with the flying service some 1000 pilots have been graduated and - Install a new Superior Automagic Waler Hutu. camping with instanauon and auto- mhc duhvery semce 75 PER MONTH 'ron mums- I cooma.“ am In T00! summ I: AUTOIAGICALLY um run you: As ambitious as the plans that are currently coming to fruition at the airport it isn’t by any means the end. General contractors carrying‘ out the work at the Buttonville Airport are Conforzi and Smith and Miller Paving. Engineers and architects responsible for the design of this modern air- age complex are Mendelow and Keywan. And just in case you're inter- ested, Mr Gerace told this re- porter it’s easier to fly than you think. The minimum age for a beginner is 16 years and there’s no maximum age pro- viding you’re in good health. Last year the club graduated one pilot who was 62 years of age. Cramer Study No. 1. She has‘ taken her grade 6 piano and grade 1 theory, receiving hon- ors and first class honors re- spectively after only four seas- ons of tuition with Miss Gar- son. Robert played the “Rondo alla turca” by Mozart, concert version and Stephen Heller Study No. 1, Carefree. He also has had four seasons of instruc- tion and received honors for grade 6 piano. This year he tried grade 1 theory and is awaiting the results. In the midst of be: closing remarks, Miss Garson was sur- prised when Pat Shelton, presi- dent of the M.T.H. Musical Club presented her with a bouâ€" quet of red and white cama- tions. Miss Garson is an honor- my member of the group. Cof- fee was served to round out a most pleasant and full after- noon which showed parents and pupils the accomplishments of the year. Mr. Gerace adds with a smile of pride and accom- plishment - “this has been a completely accident free record in which we've never had the occasion to use even as much as a band aid.” Future development at the field calls for the con- struction of two more han- gars and a large club house complete with swimming pool within the next 18 months and within five years management plan on paving a second runway. The ultimate objective, says Mr. Gerace, is to make the airport a country club for businessmen. private pilots and aircraft owners.

Up to this point in the year, children in Richmond Hill have been spending a great deal of their time in school, but with summer rolling around again they will be once more on their own about town. This means that drivers should be doubly careful when driving during the summer months. You can always expect the unexpected when exuberant kids let out a hoop and a holler at the end of another school year. They have a way of dashing out from behind parked cars or racing across inter- sections without warning. By keeping a sharp lookout and a slow speed, we can make sure that they will 11] return to school next fall. Would you be surprised to find that rust is a com- ponent in the memory core of a computer, the trans- former core of a TV receiver, or the antenna rod for radio or radar equipment? Well, we would be too, except for the fact that there is. and it serves a useful and important purpose. Iron oxide (rust) from scrap iron, in the form of ferrites with excellent magnetic properties, are being produced by our Northern Electric Company. These low cost components can be molded into any desired form and lose none of their efficiency when miniaturized. In the telephone industry ferrite materials are applied to electronic switching systems, electronic switchboards. and are expected to be the heart of a push-button touch tone dial which is being developed. As a matter of fact, few communication systems pres- ently under design, or foreseen for the future, will be without a high percentage content of ferrite components. by Bill Barnes your telephone manager "VE FOUND A USE FOR RUST SCHOOL‘S OUT!
