Ontario, Thursday, April 22. 1965 ichmond Hill United NERS .Revive Comedy Routine At Mkhm. Twp. Meeting The old Abbott and Costello routine of who was first. what‘si ion second, was revived for aâ€"l iwhile by Markham Township Council at its regular meeting. last week. with Reeve Char-1 ‘les Hooper and Deputyâ€"reevev Stewart Rumble taking the lead-1 ‘ing roles. The two became entangled in a bit of confused byplay when ;they disagreed to the definition iof an amendment to a motion.l which had just been proposed by Councillor Cleary Palmer. .drop then and Mr. Palmer made Mr. Palmer's ainendmeiit.l which arose out of a discussion ‘on the proposed move of two’ federal forestry research labor-l jatories at Maple and Richmondi {Hill to Sault Ste. Marie. called‘vi llfor council to "strengthen the 'hand of Richmond Hill and puss-i libly Vaughan Township“ by} ‘sending a delegate or delegates to Ottawa to protest the move and also show the federal gov- ernment the “solidarity” of the} areas involved. ; ‘ The amendment followed an} earlier motion by Councillor Charles Hoover supporting ‘ n. in principle" the two-man delega- tion being sent to Ottawa by. York County for the same pur-i pose. With the exception of Mr. Palmer, however, council I had felt that the matter of the laboratories was the worry of the two communi- t ; ties concerned. ‘ t “We have our own problems ito worry about." said Councillor Alan Sumner. The confusion over the mat» ter came about when Mr. Pal- mer asked for a recorded vote to Mr. lloover's motion. Reeve Hooper. who had attended a meeting with Mr. Palmer and other represent- atives of the county to discuss the “Soo” matter. and who had agreed with Mr. Palmer that Richmond Hill should be supported Ask Province Subsidize Police l Richmond Hill Town Council last week concurred in a peti! tion to the Legislature from the Township of Saltleet that the province provide grants in aid of maintenance of munici- pal police forces within its boundaries. The petition noted such grants w ill benefit the whole population of the prov- ince lat by standardizing the level of police services and Ibl by enabling municipalities to provide better police facilities and equipment. The petitioners based their request on the fact that the government provides grants to municipalities for other essen- tial services such as schools. roads. libraries. welfare. rec- reation programs. etc. Mayor Thomas Broad- hurst commented on the proposal. stating that local police forces spend mOst of their time enforcing pro- vincial and federal statutes and maintaining the Queen‘s peace. Councillor Walter Scudds who heads council's police committee contended the police enforce these laws for the pro- tection of our citi7eiis. Someâ€" where along the line we should accept some responsibility. he urged. Ree\e Donald Plaxtoii reâ€" ported iiicreased demands for increased police protection are being heard. with one police- man for 650 people being the recommended norm at present. Councillor Eric llandbury felt that provincial subsidivation of local police forces would mean that the municipalities would lose control of its police. “The Villatones“. front row (left to right) evin Maher. The vote was then called ‘for on the amendment. Mr. Hooper. in turn. asked that. tPhoto by Studio Nine!

Mr. Palmer ask- ing for another recorded vote. “This is a different motion altogether. not an amendment." said Mr. Rumble. "It‘s an amendment.“ said the reeve. “The motion called for two delegates. the amendment has added two or more." Mr. Rumble said an amend- ment must modify a motion, while Mr. Hooper replied that that was what the amendment had done. it be taken once more. "You’ve already voted on it," said Mr. Rumble. It would have to be record- ed again, said the reeve. Mr. Rumble said he thought‘ the reeve must mean the mot-i ion. , “Well. all these rules and reg-‘ ulations can get a little con- fusing." the reeve said. ‘ When the confusion clear- ed.

ISeniors’Can't Cros; gYonge On Green Cycle‘ A letter asking for some ac- tion to be initiated immediate-l ly to overcome the difficulty/l experienced by pedestrians.‘ particularly senior citizens. in‘. crossing Yonge Street at traffic" ights. was read at the April 12 meeting of Richmond Hilll Town Council. From F. HI Barker. 154 Centre Street West; the letter stated that with the‘ very short cycles on east-westl lights a pedestrian of slow gait. cannot cross \‘ouge Street dur-l ing the green light period. ‘ This situation could be overcome b.\’ the installa- tion of four hand-operated push-buttons. that would override the normal green cycle and increase its on- time to 30 seconds each time the east-west button was operated. Mr. Barker claimed. Further. he continued. it would be advantageous if at least two of the street lights. at all intersections in town had colored lamps installed to facilitate recognition of the in- ‘tersection. Councillor Walter Scudds reâ€" ported that an investigation is being conducted at the present time by the Department of Highways which had jurisdic- tion over the Yonge Street traf- fic lights, The councillor agreed that there is no ques~ tion in anyone's mind that the green light east-west cycle is much too short. "I'm quite certain it will be lengthened," he added. “but it needs a great deal of study so as to cause the least possible interference with the tremendous volume of traffic on Highway 11." Reeve Donald Plaxton re- Ported he would prefer to see a signal light system for the length of Yonge Street within the town boundaries rather than crosswalk; which have been suggested. Extended Service Markham Township Counâ€" cil has decided to request the discontinuance of the North Yonge bus service extension to Elgin Mills. The suggestion was made by council last week. The report followed a meeting of representatives from the Township of Markham. Vaughan and Richmond Hill last week to discuss the service. Markham and Vaughan both contribute 25 percent to- ward the cost of the exten- sion. while Richmond Hill pays the other 50 percent. Council said a study of the trial period report on the extension showed there had been little usage and fares would have to be in- creased if it was going to be continued. Vaughan To Consider Protesting Lowering Of Legal Drinking Age After V a u g h a n Township Council had refused to support resolutions from three other municipalities sent to them.‘ they were asked at last week‘s meeting if they ever supported resolutions from other munici~ palities. Reeve A. ll. Rutherford adâ€" vised that they sometimes did. biit thought that often there was not enough thought behind the resolutions. The three discussed at meeting were: a resolution by New Toronto to request. the‘ provincial government to enact} legislation under the Highway the Traffic Act permitting munici-"' ’ palities to pass by-laws setting maximum speed on any street fronting on. abutting or ad- jacent to schools at 15 miles per hour; a resolution from the Windsor Traffic Safety Council. protesting a proposal to lower the age at which alcoholic bev.‘ erages may be legally consumâ€" ed in Ontario; and a resolution from the Township of Saltfleet requesting the provincial gov-‘ ernment to consider payment| of grants in aid of maintenance and upkeep of municipal police forces. f Reeve Rutherford suggested that if Saltfleet Township had investigated the time when the government did pay grants in aid of police forces. they would find that the grants were less than the assistance now given to municipal police forces. I “Why didn't you support the Windsor Traffic Safety Council's p r o t e S t about lowering the age at which alcoholic beverages may be consumed?" asked a mem- ber of the audience, Don- ‘Chesebrough-Ponds PIANO SALE PAY AS YOU PLAY NO DOWN PAYMENT REQUIRED PIANOS 8325 AND ['1‘ $12.50 PER MONTH WHY RENT AT THIS PRICE Pianos Rebuilt. The Toronto Transit Commission's report in March showed in the three months of operation from September 6 to December 6. 1964. an average of three persons per trip. or a total of I29 fares col» lected on October 15. the day chosen for a count. The r e p o rt concluded that there was no economic justification for the extenâ€" sion. which it estimated cost $6.000 a year to oper- ate. Both Richmond Hill and Vaughan Township have decided to await a report from the T'l‘C outlining ways and means of saving money on the operation. and possibly changing the service. riding .\ll Reconditioned.
