However, Township Planning Director John Dewar pointed out that only those lands pres- ently zoned commercial are so indicated on the secondary plan and the tertiary plan definitely indicates that the corner lot is zoned residential. Weldrick Road & Yonge Gulf Oil Limited will likely have to shelve its plans to build a modern service centre on the northwest corner of Wel- drick Road and Yonge Street in Richvale until at least 1971. as the result of the June 25 decis- ion of Vaughan Township Plan- ning Board. Gulf has purchas- ed the land immediately south of its present service station, which is now zoned residential, and is seeking to have it rezon- ed to highway commercial. Planning board decided in com- mittee of the whole following the open session to recommend to council that the application be turned down. A representative of BAIF As- sociates which is planning a major subdivision on 400 acres to the south of Weldrick Road, objected to the rezoning since his company plans all residentâ€" ial development on the south side of Weldrick and feels the north side should also be dev- eloped residentially. The Metro Conservation Au- thority announces that a few vacancies still exist in its sum- mer camp program at the Al- bion Hills Conservation Area and field centre. Parents who have made \no plans for their children this summer may be interested in enrolling them in this program which combines outdoor conservation education and recreation. The program is open to youngsters who have completed grades 7, 8, 9 or 10 during their school year.

Dawn Jams IS COMING It was pointed out to Mr. George that the York-Oshawa Health Unit has reported unsat- isfactory rubble fill of the lot and that the building up of the site of the present facility cre- ated a severe drainage problem in the area. Mr. George report- ed his company was aware of this and planned to do every- thing possible to solve these problems satisfactorily. It was also pointed out to him that Weldrick Road will eventually be 86 feet wide and that a 75 foot daylighting triangle will he required. Councillor Louis Wainwright stated, "I live in the area. North of this property E550 has made a great improvement in what was the gol-darnedest dirty hole and I was hoping to see the same kind of develop- ment on this site. It’s the dark- est corner imaginable!" He was assured that it would be a larger version of the Thornhill station owned by the same company. “Since the site will be in an- other municipality shortly, I don’t know whether we should be making this decision”, Mr. Wainwright declared. Planning Board Chairman Nom Garriock and Reeve Garnet Williams ag- reed. (The site will be in the new Town of Richmond Hill when regional government com- es into effect in York, January 1, 1971.) Beginners May learn To Sew This Summer Some Richmond Hill girls in their teens looking for some- thing constructive to do during the summer holidays have ap- proached George Morison ' of Bernina Sewing Centre to ask if he would run a beginners’ home dressmaking class. Mr. Morison agreed if en- ough pupils are interested to enable him to break even on expenses. Some pupils of pre- vious classes enjoyed them so much and learned so much that they want to come back for more advanced sewing know- ledge. If you are interested in learn- ing how to sew this summer so that you can have an up-to-the minute ample wardrobe at a minimal cost, contact Mr. Mor- ison at Richmond Heights Cen- tre or by phoning 884-3775.

Dominion Gloss Company Limited, Chapple Sire bring us your "no deposit” soft drink bottle Susan Brown Writes even though we understand very little Japanese! For example, Mrs. Okamoto was here just a moment ago to bring us some candy, and in the morning she often cleans our street sandals before We depart. Such little favors are making life here very pleas. ant. There are actually four people in the family, but Mr. Okamoto and his son and daughter are away for the day working in Osaka, so it is a perfect op- portunity to take you on a brief tour of their house. The Okamoto’s home is built in a row of what might be roughly described as an eastern version of the townhouse. As you leave the narrow dirt street outside, you enter a typical Japanese world where you must take off your shoes at the door and walk in your stocking feet on the tatami. This straw matting covers every room of the two storey house, except the kitchen which is unique owing to its western style furniture and appliances. To the left of the entrance there is a small room which adjoins the living-dining room during the day and becomes a bedroom at night for Mr. and Mrs. Okamoto by closing the sliding doors. You must pass through the kitchen at the back of the house to reach either the bath or the toilet. The former is a deep square wooden tub which always is filled with hot water in which one soaks and relaxes after washing himself in the tiled area outside the bath. For this latter purpose, a shower has been ingeniously created by attaching a plastic shower head to a hOSe which extends from the kit- chen sink tap to the bath area. It is very similar to the apparatus we use for washing a car and the water is warmed by means of a small gas heater located above the kitchen sink. When this is not lighted, however, there is only cold running water in the house. With regard to the toilet, it could be most aptly labelled as a luxurious “outhouse”, except that it is located inside the house. But despite the lack of plumbing, it is clean and made of porcelain just like our facilities. I should mention, however, that its Japanese construction requires a squat position. How is your balance? As for the upstairs, it consists of only two rooms of which are separated by sliding doors. I believe there is only one hinged door in the entire house! Although these rooms serve as bedrooms at night, it would be rather difficult to recognize them as such during the day. To explain, We sleep on the Jap- anese futon which consists of layers of padding and quilts that are simply folded up and stored in a large cupboard. Normally we sit on a cushion placed on the tatami, but often we are given two of these be- cause we are unacustomed to the Japanese tradition of sitting on the floor! Despite the lack of fumi- ture, though, both upstairs rooms are very artistic since all the sliding doors are actually lovely painted screens. And there my description ends. The house may be small and in the country, but it has all the con- veniences of home in one form or another, including two televisions, a stereo, and a sewing machine. The Okamoto’s even have their own wine cellar under the floorboards of the kitchen in which they keep their sabe and beer! Incidentally, Japanese beer is not bad, especially if you have some dried squid or cuttle fish to nibble on! GLASS CONTAINER COUNCIL OF CANADA (Continued from Page 2) e’ll h'élp you clean-up! Stgef, Hamilton and 1250 James Sfreef, Wallaceburg. (Continued from Page 2) Dancing in the senior jazz group was Carolyn’s elder sister, Lydia, in a lively number, “Feelin’ Good”. Another pair of sisters in the show were Lorraine and Shirley Foster. two seniors who enter- tained with a tap duet, “Mack The Knife”. A brother and sister team well-known in Richmond Hill- for their skating prowess are Bernard and Marie Ellen Souche, who are just as proficient as dancers. Their jazz number was entitled “I’ll See You Again”._ Taking part in the revue were the assistant teachers from the Dennis Moore School. Brandie Rose, Janis Goodman and Freya Moseley are familiar to local audiences, and Janis was seen last season as one of the regular dancers on CTV’s “It’s Happen- mg”. Carolyn was in the opening number of the sec- ond half, “The Dance of the Cygnets”, again from Swan Lake”. In “Chimney Sweeps”. a character ballet, she was partnered by another talented dancer, Cathy Boynton, who was featured several times in the revue. She and Carolyn were in the intermediate jazz class which performed “Secret Love”, and again in the fascinating rfinale “Devil Moon”. Also Areceiving scholarships were Cathy Boyn- ton. Paul Gordon and five year old Dennis Bearlieu. a big moment for the young dancers, as well as the appreciative and capacity audience. Every year there are rumors that the dear old Red Barn at Jackson’s Point is about to be sold and pulled down. We are happy to say that so far it always gets a reprieve, and once again is enter- taining its summer audiences. The season opened June 27 with Peter Schaffer’s “Black Comedy”. The other plays on the program will be Moliere’s “The Hypochondriac”, “Barefoot In The Park”, Neil Simon’s hit comedy, Brien Friel’s broadway success “Lovers”, “The Late Christopher Bean” by Sidney Howard, Noel Coward’s sparkling and witty “Fallen Angels”, the Patrick Hamilton thriller “Rope”, and the very funny and touching “The Owl and the Pussycat”. 7 V The shows run Tuésday through Sunday week- ly until August 23.
