Davies, professor of zoology at McMaster University was guest speaker at the March 15 meeting of the Richmond Hill Naturalists Club held at Richmond Hill Public Library. “Insect Research in Norway" was the title of his lecture and he introduced the subject by pointing out how black flies carry disease to birds and mam- mals. Blindness in humans caused by roundworms which are associated with black flies, malarial diseases of birds in which these flies play a part and various diseases of horses and cattle attributed to their activities makes the study of these flies an important one. Twelve hundred species, dis- tributed widely throughout the world with a wide range of harmful activities, attacking humans in some areas, birds and mammals in others, make the problems of study diffuse. In Algonquin Park, 12 species have been described over the past 20 years. A brief description of the method of trapping the flies for study and a demonstration of the live trap used, formed an introduction to a series of color slides taken in Norway of a pro- ject undertaken last summer by NATO with participation from Canadian, British and Scandi- navian scientists. Surveys of streams for black flies of various species. life cycle studies and collections occupied the team of 12 scien- (Continued from Page ‘2) leave them to express their own feelings on the sub- ject”, then turning to her students she added, “If you want to start, start; if you haven’t got an idea I’ll just keep talking till you get one.” Every child had already put the first swoop of color across the paper. Sometimes Mrs. Walker supply teaches in North York High Schools. and this, she feels, is a good change of pace, and keeps her ideas fresh. She is very impressed with the art curriculum which now includes many craft projects. “I am staggered by the talent of these children” she said. and added rather wistfully. “I didn't particularly enjoy art as a child. “I used to have lessons from a famous Saskatch- ewan artist who lived to draw grain elevators. I got so sick of sitting in railway sidings drawing the wretched things”, she recalled. It was after major- ing in art at the University of Saskatchewan. and a summer at the School of Fine Arts in Banff, that she developed this great feeling for nature that she expresses so well in her art. “Another of my ‘Things’, is that I hate to waste anything, and don’t believe in buying a lot of expensive materials. Friends knowing of this are always giving me odds and ends. “For example, I have had great fun with an old wallpaper sample book, by using pages of it as background for my silk-screen prints. This one of a calladium was hung at a centennial exhibition, next to an A. Y. Jackson, and it amused me to think of my old wallpaper hanging in such a revered position!” she said and pointed out that it had been returned with the glass broken. No doubt it won’t go to waste! Mrs. Walker’s three children are not avid artists but will occasionally join in a “fun project”, and there are always plenty of those going on in the Walker household. The children agree that the most fun of all, is looking after the artist’s very live models . . . the two ponies, the six guinea hens, the three ducks, and the two very inspiring geese.

Num- erous questions were posed to him from the audience about a group of insects which continue to give us all some personal concern. The recent field trip to the Maple Research Station of the Department of Lands and For- ests was an informative one. Members were shown how to identify different trees in win- ter and noted extensive dam- age done to many trees by mice. Dozens of smaller trees had been entirely girdled by mice chewing the bark off underâ€" neath the snow. John Griffiths, the leader, demonstrated the increment borer which is an instrument used to tell the age of a tree. Killdeer, grackles, redwinged blackbirds and robins arrived in this area around March 19. Song sparrows are singing but they have not arrived in large numbers as yet. Watch for new arrivals each day.

Walter Pitman. MA was re- cently elected president of the 13,000-member Ontario Educa- tion Association. Mr. Pitman previously taught at Bathurst Heights Collegiate in Toronto and came to the York Central system from Pet- erboro where he taught, from 1956 to 1964. He left York Central in 1965 to accept the post of assistant registrar at Trent University. Peterboro. In 1960 he was elected to the House of Commons from Peter- boro. the first to be elected under the NDP label. Subse- quently, he was twice defeated in bids for re-election but last October was elected to the On- tario Legislature to represent Peterboro. Along with Stephen Lewis. Mr. Pitman is education critic for the New Democratic Party and concerns himself with edu- cation at all levels, from kinder- garten to universities. Mr. Pitman is concerned about two central issues in On- ta'rio education, the consolida- tion of over 1,500 school boards into 90 boards of education and the training of teachers. With respect to the consolida- tion, Mr. Pitman believes larger units of education are needed but is critical of the timing of the plan â€"~ a month after last October's provincial election. "It disregarded the whole con- cept of democracy," he said. “You must allow people to make the decisions.” With respect to the move to place teachers“ colleges in the universities, Mr. Pitmavn feels this is “fraught with dangers as well as opportunities. We must not create a second-class uni- versity system,” he warned. To Study Shakespeare By Visit To Stratford One hundred and fifty grade 8 pupils and 10 teachers from Crosby Heights Senior Public School will be attending a mati- nee performance in Stratford on June 19. They will be seeing a perfor- mance of Romeo and Juliet. Richmond Hill Public School Board March 28 agreed to pay the cost of transportation to Stratford of $255 for buses. Ad- mission to the Stratford Festi- val Theatre will be $480, or $3 per person. The students and teachers concerned will pay the cost of the admission tickets. Superintendent Gordon Mc- Intyre noted that although not all grade 8 pupils will be on the excursion, there would be no major expense to the board for supply staff. English is taught by the home room teachers, he reported, and these would be‘ going along. The other members‘ of the staff are willing to fill the gap for the day, he said. Some trustees expressed 'conâ€" cern about seeing that the young people reached their homes on return to Richmond Hill, since there is a possibility that the buses will not return by 9 pm. However, the super- intendent believed that provi- sion for this would be made in the» planning stages. NEWMARKET: Holland Valley Conservation Authority last week signed the contract docu« ments to initiate construction for the rehabilitation of a res- ervoir and dam at Concession 2 of East Gwillimbury on the Holland River. McKay Excavat- ing of Downsview was awarded the contract under the direction of Canadian Mitchell and Asâ€" sociates, Consulting Engineers. Mr; Pitman believes the OEA (Continued from Page 2) Phillips and David Smith has the role of the Duke l of Cumberland. ‘ ‘ “This is a sort of travel in time story," said Mr. l Clifton, “a very romantic one too." “Berkeley Square” is the story of a young American who inherits a house in England.

"We could become a force for upgrading the standards of edu- cation and I would like to see us play a more active role in as- sisting and reacting to the De- partment of Education." he said.

The letters were written to and from a girl named Kate whom he intended to marry. Peter Standish also finds a diary which records many of the incidents in the life of the young man. He is fascinated by the period represented by the letters, the relatives and especially the girl named Kate: Standish feels that he would like to go back to this period in time. He feels that he knows all the details of their every day life and all the ways in which a young man would speak and act in the 18th century. The young man of the letters was an in- ventor and being of a curious nature was very anx- ious to see what the world would be like in 200 years time. So Peter Standish arranged to change places with the inventor. How would a 20th century man react in the old world atmosphere of Berkeley Square? This you will see if you take a chance on this exciting play. Don’t forget the dates, April 18, 19, and 20 at the Richmond Hill High School Auditorium. According to Colleen it was a good show. The girls modelled the latest spring numbers, jump suits, formals, hipsters and culottes. There were quite a. few mix and match sets. The event takes place every fall and spring. Rambling Around The Home Economics Club can be proud of its successful fashion show, March 6. Staff advisor is Miss Martha Elliott. Linda Cole, Simplicity Pattern Company rep- resentative, conducted the show free of charge. The models were supplied by the club. Colleen Fr‘aAser, who took a Vicki Jenkinson course last year, was in charge of getting the models ready and Susan Dallton looked after the decorations. Kathy Bowman reports that the Georgian Bay finals in gymnastics will take place April 6. The girls’ event will be held at Bayview Secondary School. * Â¥ * * 5' THE THORNHILL TRANSMITTER Charlie Zinkan from Thornhill Secondary re- ports that the production of “J.B.” by Archibald MacLeish was quite successful.
