A- . ; WE HAVE A COMPLETE LINE OF Sid feels that the pressures of the current soc- iety are so great. that adults don‘t have time to plan their own amusement. And by everyone Sid means from the youngest to the oldest. “There's been a misconception about recreation for a number of years." he said. “It’s been taken for granted that recreation means just participating in sports. ‘ RECREATION FOR.ALL “This is wrong. Sports should be only one segment of‘a recreation program. Adults also need __......._. “.uv “vyu to be considered. There ‘sllgfilid‘lie programs for all ag‘e groups. Programs such as birdâ€"watching, read- ing. or even simply sitting down in groups and talk- mg.” Sid is a native of Lis- towel and is currently at- tending Centennial College in Scarboro. Yes, he's V. planningr to make a career ‘ " out of being a full time rec- reation director upon grad- uation. He's in his final year now. It‘s not that he is at- tempting to tell Richmond Hill what‘s good for it. The question was asked, the following answer resulted: SID ARMATAGE "The leisure age along with expanding urban populations is upon us and we just don't have the space available for children to play on a disorganized basis. Recreation has to be organized to give everyone the opportunity to participate.” That’s the admittedly prejudiced opinion of 23- year-old Sid Armatage who has been hired summer- time recreation director for Markham Township. .Sid also points out logically that you can't expect 'a 'vecreatioh' committee-“to be experts at what the commuiiity needs.’ "They are attempting to do a job but I feel that they can only go by the advice they receive. None of the members are full time recreation men and you can‘t expect them to be experts.” SALARY WORTH IT Sid also firmly believes that any salary spent on a full time director will be amply returned in the way of a happier band of citizens who nowadays regard recreation as a necessity-3. not a luxury. It’s the job of a priorities that will be limited budget» “He is trained to see the particular problems of individual bodies sometimes before they see them themselves. And he being a professional, a recâ€" reation committee is more inclined to listen to his advice within reason. Of course there's always the question of only so much money.” There's no doubt about it. A community the size of Richmond Hill â€" some 20,000 souls â€"â€"- should have a full time recreation di- rector. CO-ORDINATION ALI. IMPORTANT Sid stresses co-ordination above all. “It’s no use having a dozen different voices appealing to your recreation committee. It simply confuses the entire issue. A recreation director acts as a liaison officer. “A recreation director is a professional co-ordin- ator who goes out into the community and finds out what type of recreation the people want. It’s his job to see that the kind of recreation already there is functioning in a coherent manner with other kinds of recreation.” A beautiful and challenging course with one .of Ontario’s top professionals.

The amendment to require a surety bond instead of cash was tied and Chairman Allan Peck cast the deciding negative vote. “One game in the rain on a Sat- urday afternoon and the field is never the same for the rest of the year," he commented.

However, these diagnostic services will continue to be covered in connection with emergency out-patient services within twenty-four hours of an accident or when part of hospital out-patient service to complete treatment of a fracture. The new benefits will NOT cover any charges made by doctors or dentists for professional services rendered at the hospital; the use of hospital facilities for regular injections of drugs, or dental care normally provided in a dentist’s office. In addition to out-patient hospital services already covered (emergency care; follow-up treatment of fractures; radio- therapy; physiotherapy;’occupational therapy and speech therapy) the plan now provides further benefits for the use of hospital facilities in out-patient treatment prescribed by a physician. This means that many hospital visits not previously insured, such as Use of operating room for minor surgical procedures and the use of hospital facilities in the treatment of medical conditions, will now be covered by Ontario Hospital Insurance. .r. . . n! Ontario Hospital Insurance will now cover, also, the major part of ambulance charges when an ambulance is necessary to take a patient to or from a hospital.
