James O'Neil was read at the meeting. The chap- lain said he was planning a special service of thanksgiving at St. Mary's Anglican Church on June 18 at 10.30 am, and as this was at the end of veteran‘s week, thought it would be fit- ting if a church parade was held at that time. A subsequent mo- tion to hold a church parade on that date was carried. Mem- bers were also informed that a Legion district drumhead ser- vice was being held in Aurora on the same date. but in the afternoon. It was felt that memâ€" bers could attend the parade ‘and service in Richmond Hill tin the forenoon and proceed to Aurora in the afternoon.

NEWMARKET: A four-day soft- ball toux'ney will he held in Newmarket June 30 to July 3 under the auspices of the New- market and East Gwillimbury Recreation Committee. A total of 40 teams is expected in the event, which is to be known as the East Gwillimbury-Newmar- ket Centennial Softball Tourna- ment.

Best wishes for the future are also extended to Auxiliary President Lucy Rickard and her family of automobile experts who recently emigrated from Richvale to Richmond Hill and presently occupy the Fina sta- tion at the corner of Harding and Yonge. There is no doubt that we will be seeing all of her happy entourage and many more, at the “Millionaires Night Dance" that is being held this Saturday night at Legion Court in aid of our deserving Legion Midget Hockey Team. Congratulations are extended to Comrade George “Pop” Brummell and his wife Minnie, of 55 Oak Avenue, Richvale, who recently celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in this our Centennial year.

As Parks are hard to come by during the summer months of Centennial year, the tentative date set for this hum- orous occasion is September 30. Volunteers to assist Marsh in his efforts to get the Legion's "Funday" off the ground are also proving very hard to get, and anyone wishing to give a little help to our short, but very well intentioned comrade should telephone him at 884-1882. IBoard Reserves Decision fParents Group Wants BA. Children [Instructed Oral French At Noon The parents’ group had first approached the board on Febru- ary 9 of this year. requesting suitable Space in Beverley Acres Public School between 12.40 and 1.25 pm daily for the teaching of Oral French. All arrange- ments. costs. etc. are to be borne by the parents. Mrs. S. Denning was spokesman. The group‘s presentation end- ed, “We would point out that. if permission is not given for these classes to be held in our school, during the lunch period. the school board will be depriv- ing many children of the oppor- tunity of learning French at an age at which their parents feel they would best learn it and also. in the long term view, could be perpetuating the short~ age of French teachers for fu- ture generations.” Board members pointed out that if successful this year, in future years the program could call for as many as seven rooms, one for each grade in the kjn~ dergarten to grade 6 junior school.

It was also noted that teachers must have access to their classrooms dur- ing the school day â€" that the noon hour is often needed to prepare blackboards and les~ sons for the afternoon classes. The delegation claimed they wished the use of a room in the school which is not used as a classroom. However, it was pointed out that although this room was formerly used as an office and never as a classroom, it is now being used by the diagnostic and remedial teacher for those children with a read ing problem. It is also a re- source centre for the school. “The list of students needing the services of this teacher is quite extensive."

NEWMARKET: Newmarket Pol- ice have laid 20 charges for committing minor traffic of- fences and a charge of assault- ing a police officer following a couple of episodes involving teenagers last week. The first occurred at Newmarket Plaza. where about 100 cars of youths gathered. Charges laid there were mostly for noisy mufflers and lack of lights. The assault ltook place at Sutton when Con- ‘stable LaVerne Hodgson was thrown to the ground and stamped on when he tried to arrest David Booth of Newmar- ket during a shouting match between Keswick and Newmar- ket youths. However. Trustee Charles Wortman reported he had been in contact with the principal of that school, who agreed the pro- gram has been successful. but noted that although classes are held daily. each child receives only one lesson a week.
