With a hot- line connected to the weather- man, Stan Daurio. the president and Charlie Stewart, the parade manager arranged a joyous end- ing. with all the final games, a great parade, refreshments, crests, trophies, and kids!

The parade started out withl the Markham Township Police, the softball executive, and color party of the 7th Thornhil] Scouts. Led by four pretty majorettes. Carole-Anne and. Diane Davidson. Patti and Joanne Levi, the Nexm‘narket Citizens Band made it into at real parade. with their bright uniforms and marching music. Marie Rowe organized the ladies of the refreshment booths. with almost 100% of those mothers asked helping with the hot dogs and pop. It was a long tiring day for these hard working ladies. with this perhaps being an opportunity to express our thanks to Linda Daurio for all her dedication to the softball program. Special thanks must now be offered to the sponsors. with out whose help this softball program could not be run. There is never a day from spring through summer and fall. that these shirts are not proudly worn. The sponsors who were out on Saturday must surely realize the contribution they make to the area. SPECIAL AWARDS There were three special awards made this year: The Bob Shute Trophy For Sportsmanship to a senior girl went to Pat Tuck of Saynor Electronics. In this division there were many runners-up. The Bob Shute Trophy For Sportsmanship to the senior boy went unanimously to David Haire of CDJ who received a similar award last year. The executive of the softball} program presented a special award for outstanding contrib- ution to community sports to Larry Rowe. coach of Thornlea Community Association Junior Girls winning team. umpire in the junior boys' division. and team player on York Printing. Seeing a boy like Larry develop through this program is very rewarding.

A. BARTON. Roy Muldrew. 42. North Thornhill‘s representative on Markham Township Planning Board. today announced he will contest the election for coun- cillor in the new Ward 2 of the soon - to - be - created Markham Town. Ward 2 encompasses the North Thornhill and Langstaff areas in the proposed Markham Town. one of the nine com- munities that will make up the York Region. In making his announcement, Mr. Muldrew said his main con- cern was to ensure that the Ward 2 area received full and proper representation at Mark- ham Council and that the wards needs were properly communi- cated by council to the York Region. “As things now stand, it ap- pears the Ward 2 area will be a no man‘s land of the region," he said. "My concern is that there may be a tendency by other sections of the York Region to ignore our needs because this area is slated to become part of Metro." he said. “I know this ward and the entire Markham area quite well from my experience on plan- ning board. My record of ac- complishments is, I believe, a Building Continues To Rise In Markham Twp.

Other buildings. including additions to dWellings, under- ground tank installations. a sign permit, brought the total for the month to $1,106,150 com- pared with $587,700 for August, \1969.
