However. he felt that Mr. Van Camp attributed the startling increase to the new Child Welfare Act which broadened the concepts and responsibilities of the society and to the ever-increasing population of the county. “It is safe to forecast that the trends of growth and change will continue in 1967. so we should plan according- ly". he added. The year also saw 184 children admitted to care and 107 discharged with 222 children in care at the end of the year, as against 145 at the beginning. A total of 62 children were placed for adoption during _the year. Mr. Van Camp advised that protection work or service to families more than doubled during last year. In January 1966, there were 47 families seeking help, involving 114 children. At the end of the Year. there were 98 families on the books, involving 211 children.

VAN CAMP Suggests Group Homes featuring the in Coiffures for '67 Presents Richmond Hill Hairdressers’ Association Refreshments He also criticized the federal government for "avoiding its responsibilities" in regional land use and land servicing planning, which he said had been “clearly spelled out" un- der the National Housing Act since 1946. If the government had done its job, Markham and Vaughan Townships would have a better idea of their futures. Also, Vaughan wouldn’t have the garbage problem it had now. The government had the power to do something. but was “sitt- ing on its hands." Mr. Rohmer said his party was the “party of change â€" re- sponsible, progressive, modern and futuristic. "Ours is the party of the people, not of any clique or special group, but of and for all the Canadian people across this land of whatever back- Mr. Rohmer said he had been asked to put together a panel April 12 to discuss the ques- tions of feasibility and desira- bility of federal government participation in schools. Speaking of the spiralling ed- ucation costs, Mr. Rohmer said a part or the whole of “this crushing school-housing burden must be assumed by the federal government before you and I are, taxed out of our own houses, and before construction of new housing stops because the house buyer, the developer. the municipal and provincial governments have no more money or credit with which to build schools." gance Previously the province has paid 40 percent of the society’s operating costs and the county the balance. Last year the province began pay- ing 100 percent of the costs of children of unwed parents also. It was announced that. the bylaws and constitution of the society had been rewrit- In presenting the treasur- er's report, which showed expenditures of $264,224 for 1966, Sheldon Walker of East Gwillimbury announced that under the terms of the Can- ada Assistance Act which will become effective April 1 of this year the province will assume 60 percent of the cost of the Society's operations (with the exception of costs of children of unwed mothers for which it pays 100 per- cent). This means that bas- ed on the 1967 forecast. the county‘s obligation will be approximately $26,800 less than anticipated when the new budget was prepared. Mr. Walker noted that 40 cents of every dollar spent by the society goes for direct child care costs such as board. clothing. health. edu- cation, etc. Anohher 37 cents is for other specific costs and protection services while administration costs amount to 23 cents. remodelled to its specifica- tion for occupancy June 15 of this year.

RICHMOND HILL HIGH SCHOOL Miss Corey did receive a good hand, however, for her hastily- improvised victory song for Mr. Rohmer, which she sang to the tune of “Frere Jacques." Entertainment was supplied by Roberta Corey of Willowdale, who attempted to get the aud- ience to sing along with her on several of her selections, but the latter wasn’t in a singing mood, possibly tired out from the standing ovations it handed out with such regularity all evening to the various speakers and other guests.

Macdonald Armstrong in 1917. Mrs. Lewis Clement of Richmond Hill advised that social planning council of Richmond Hill and district had complied a directory of agencies in the area and would be happy to supply copies of it. . Mrs. Clement also noted that SPC had found as the result of a survey that there was an urgent need for a family counselling service in the southern part of the country. While she welcomed the provision of such a serv- ice on the part of CAS. she pointed out that because of lack of transportation facili- ties and the distance involv- ed, if such a service were lo- cated in Newmarket it would be virtually useless to resi- dents of the Richmond Hill district. Mr. Van Camp advised that the CAS would have a social worker located in Richmond Hill and is presently seeking ofiice space for this purpose. In the meantime, residents of the ‘southern portion of the county may reach the CAS on its Toronto line, 364-9221. In order to pro- vide the family counselling service made possible under the enlargement of the scope of_CAS, an additional social worker is to be engaged in June and additional secretar- ial help from September. addicts. prostitutes. unwed mothers and those who try to help them and was followed by a discussion period led by Rev. McNaught. Consensus was that more services to meet these problems are needed and also a knowledge of just what agencies do exist to help people in trouble.

Witnesses testified that Mr. Wilson’s car, which was south- bound at the time of the acci- dent, appeared to be driverless and veered into the path of a northbound truck driven by Romano Guiliani of Toronto. Mr. Guiliani was not injured but Mrs. Wilson, who was a passen- ger in her husband‘s car, is still a patient at Branson Hospital.

Dr. Bernard Gl'anton who conducted the hearing said that doctors are concerned about the problem of aging drivers and have formed a committee to make recommendations to the government. A juryman commented. “we wonder that the DOT takes a car away that is in poor shape, but does not interfere with a driver." Mr. McIntyre said that all drivers are called in at age 70 for a driving test and if a prob- lem, such as poor eye sight, is suspected, they are referred to a specialist. Drivers are also called in if they have had three accidents in two years but at present no specific medical ex- amination is required.
