23 Skiddoo. Oh you kid â€"‘ these sayings of the Roaring Twenties were brought to life again Friday night when the 18- dies auxiliary presented their annual show. This year the theme was of fringed dresses, bobbed hair, head-bands and bath-tub gin. “375th Avenue Speak-Easy”. Say who sent you. If anyone missed this show â€" you missed a treat. These girls were a treat to watch. So many funny sketches that it is hard to pick out anyone for particular men- tion. The same applies to indi: viduals. Can mention one thing, they had everyone howl- ing. Our Elsie Burnie, just ,going off stage. showing a part of her bloomers. The audience went wild girls â€" and I use that word properly because if you can put on a show like this every year, you'll never grow old -â€" you were just great. The cos- tumes for the show were made by Lucy Rickard.

We had a further surprise when President Dickson pre- sented Frances Bloss with the Zone E2 certificate and bursary to further her education. Miss Bloss is in her first year at York University.

A resident of Neal Drive for 14 years, Mrs. Hagborg lives just behind Beverley Acres School. She reports that the situation there has improved with the shorter days and cooler vyeather. ' -H-o-v'vever {Ii-cola” Weather, ice often forms in low-lying areas on the school grounds and children skate there. 889-1189 Previously when citizens have complained to police about noise and vandalism, they have been told by local police that they have no authority to remove trespassers from school Following a complaint in September by 3 Richmond Hill woman, Mrs. Marilyn Hagbord of 298 Neal Drive, that motorcycles posed a danger to children playing on school grounds, the trus- tees directed staff to investigate. “Snowmobiles are a real danger to the child- ren,” she told “The Liberal”. . Motorized vehicles are not the only problem at Beverley Acres, however. In a letter she sent to Richmond Hill Council September 8 Mrs. Hagborg complained of vandalism, windows and lights broken, and foul language used by children in the school grounds. Following protests from citizens in various parts of the county, the board agreed at its meet- ing November 9 that signs should be put up on school properties prohibiting the use of motor- lzed vehicles on school premises. In addition, letters will be sent to all police departments in the county giving police authority to proceed under the Petty Trespass Act against trespassers on school property. Ban Snowmobiles, Motor Vehicles From York County School Property People riding snowmobiles, mini-bikes, motor cycles and other motorized vehicles around the school grounds belonging to York County Board of Education are now subject to fines of from $10 to $100.

He presented a cheque for $70,025.10 as part of the On- tario Government’s contribution to this home for the aged. A provincial grant of $250 has been approved to undertake a preliminary study at the head- waters of the Schomberg River for possible acquisition in the future of conservation lands in the Pottageville Conservation Area. Energy and Resources Man- agement Minister George Kerr is studying legislation to stop littering and waste-processing problems caused by non-return- able containers. He has in. day, ‘The language is very embarrassing. It was so nice and peaceful when we came here. It is a shame that it is going like this.” When the school was built about 13 years ago, the caretaker laid out beautiful gardens, and the grounds were very attractive, Mrs. Hagborg reports. 7 But things have changed. ‘ , “It is hérd tovunderstand tHe vandalism. It gets your dander up. This is our home, and we want to stay here.” “The troubie-makers”, she saysâ€"“look like lost sheep. They sit in doorways of the school in the rain and snow. They seem to have no place to go.” Since the school is surrounded by a large com- munity of medium-priced homes, there is a very large population of children of all ages, but no organized recreational program outside of the Cubs, Guides and some softball in the spring. The board heard similar complaints from a deputation of parents and youth leaders from East Gwillimbury Heights last spring. They complained that adults and children using Maple Leaf School in the heart of the subdivision were constantly harrassed by hoodlums and vandals, but could not get the police to act without authority from the board. Although the police could take action if they caught the vandals in the act, or find people to identify them, Mrs. Hagborg found that it was not much use to call the police. By the time they arrived, the culprits would have disappeared._ On the other hand, she does not want to see children excluded from the property com- pletely as the school is well used by the com- munity for meetings of Cubs and Guides, but she feels the board would be wise to construct a high fence and a gate with a lock. Authorized adults could be issued keys when they were given permits .to use the school or the gronds, declares Mrs. Hagborg, but the vandals and disturbers of the peace would be excluded.

Mr. Kerr also announced he is considering increasing the deâ€" posit on soft drink bottles, at- tempting to arrive at standard- ization on three or four bottle shapes and letting grocers charge soft drink producers for handling bottles. He stated he has been told cans can easily be made returnable and reusable. Three new parks were opened this summer to give Ontario a total of 100 provincial parks in operation.

Last Thursday 778 Squadron saw the film, “How An Airplane Flies", as part of their training. The four forces acting on an airplane were explained. They are lift and weight and drag and thrust. Lift must be equal to weight and thrust must be equal to drag. In an airplane these forces‘ must meet at a point or thel plane will not fly. if it does it will not be stable. | "We have all kinds of time to select which bank we want. They could all haVe been here today to make a presentation,” Jsaid Mayor Illingworth. H The film went on to explain how each of these forces acts on a plane. Without hearing proposals from competing banks anxious to make representations. the new York Region Council Novâ€" ember 12 named the Toronto- Dominion Bank as interim re- gion corporation banker. Aurora Mayor Dick Illing- Worth 5 t r o n g 1 y opposed the council action. Markham Councillor J a m e s Jongeneel called for a one- month limit on the appointment. tift is the force that acts mostly on the wings to raise UiNo tirne limit was set on the duration of the appointment. Richmond Hill Councillor Donald Plaxton wanted the ap- pointment to be on an interim bays so the other banks could be brought before councu to be heard. New York Region Council Chooses Interim Banker Without Hearing Vaughan Mayor Garnet Williams and Richmond Hill Mayor William Lazen- by formed a majority of the special personnel com- mittee that recommended appointment of the Toron- to-Dominion Bank for the period up to January 1, 1972. Committee Chairman Jon- geneel made a minority recom- mendation favoring a one-month appointment. “The only fair way was to have them invited to appear be- fore us. It would only take an hour. "If we haven’t got time to do this before January 1, we’ll be breaking one of the basic prin- ciples of democratic government at the very beginning," said the Aurora Mayor. Councillor Plaxton said he was approached by all the banks, just as was probably the case for all other mem- bers of region council. “They all asked for an oppor- tunity to make a presentation. Their request should be honor- ed," said Mr. Plaxton. Mayor Illingworth charg- ed that using the excuse of a time emergency to make an interim appointment was just a “cover-up” for mak- ing an appointment that would go on and on, and ENPD Bushnell EXPO...l:ha totally new prismatic binacular.Cool white fiberglass body is even stronger than steel. but lighter.

The Lazenby-Williams re- commendation from committee was as follows: “Whereas the staff of the treasury department is not. hired at present, and therefore can- not make recommendations to us; “And whereas there is insuf- ficient time at present to hear the individual presentations from each of the individual es- tablishments; “And whereas it is necessary for banking facilities to be in operation as of January 1; “It is recommended to the regional council that (the pre- cent York County banker) the Toronto-Dominion Bank, be re- quested to continue as the 'bank for the Regional Municipality of York for the year 1971, and that during the year the council hear representations from the banks which have made proposals at this time.
