Recently we had cause to visit Branch 426 in Newmarket. Here we were treated with evâ€". ery courtesy. Met with 426's PRO John Hanson and had a very interesting couple of hours discussing every aspect of pub- lic relatiOns. It is always a pleasure to learn from such a good teacher. Genial Tommy Thompson set up this meeting for which we extend our sincere thanks. Speaking of Branch 426. did you get a chance to attend their LSO Dance July 30? For the longest time those initials bug- ged me -â€" so went along to‘ solve the mystery.

Did you ever see such precision? * in nor as Warriors' Day at the CNE is about here. Have you signed up yet? Don’t know what we are going to do this year. Our good old sergeant major and his right hand buddy are joining up with their old unit for this year â€" the 48th; our favorite pipe band will be in the highlands of Scotland: those not going will be piping and drumming elsewhere with other units. Oh woe is us! Come aboard anyhow at 0900 hours August 21. Make it a full bus load and join us in paying our respects to those who can- not march for themselves. When much younger we all learned the golden rule of lend- ing a hand. This rule has grown with us and today it is noticed mostly in the various Legion branches. There have been many hap- penings in the past while but we are sorry to say your re- porter has been pressed for time and hasn‘t been able to get everything in. Will try to make up for it at this sitting. Because of a fatal emergency last week. we have learned that death never takes a holiday. With vacation time at hand â€" to all our comrades and friends â€"-â€" we hope you have safe jour- neys to your destinations and pleasant stops. Take care be- cause we want you all back safe and sound. What a do! Country and western music for the dancing and cheerful company to be shared by all. Intermission time and time for the pipe band to put on their show. These lads Improve each time out - if that ls pesslble. Do hear that all seats are now sold for the flight on August 15 to Scotland.

John Medcof. Mount Albert {an/yer who has spearheaded an imaginative campaign to bring rail commuter service to the Region of York, commented to “The Liberal" as he greeted a recent report by Ontario Minister of Transportation and Communication Charles MacNaughton that, hopefully, GO North may be a reality within eight months Mr. MacNaughton was reporting on a meeting held June 12 and attended by representatives of the federal, provincial and municipal governments. York Region rep- resentatives present were Chairman Garfield Wright and Administrator Jack Bettie. The meeting. which was closed to the press and public. it is reported. agreed on terms of a federally financed study of several possible routes along existing railway lines radiating from Toronto. The new study will be undertaken under the leadership of Richard Sob- erman, research director of the Canadian Transport Com- mission and his report will go directly to Federal Trans- port Minister Donald Jamieson. Two major studies have already been conducted on commuter rail service in the past five years. The new study to be undertaken by staff experts will not recommend priorities for introduction of the commuter service on existing rail lines. but educated guesses are that the ONE lines through Maple. King. Aurora. Newmarket to Barrie and through Malton. Brampton and Georgetown will be at the top of the list. , nu._:_....__ A)I.-..L rum-x Newmarket Legion Pipe Band Going To Scotland 9. old able ON ALL COLOR AND BLACK & WHITE SPECIAL PRICE REDUCTION SAFECD INSURANCE TELEVISIONS STEREOS & RADIOS EXCISE TAX REMOVED iar face maestro‘ to make Bill the Branch 375, Royal Canadian Lesion By Chris Ratchford â€" 884-5260 miss- Aird, scene 884-7456 §NEWMARKET1Bemhardhs lVan Berkel, 22, Brampton, has been convicted and fined $200 for stealing $104 worth of frozen chicken from his former em- ployer.

Pat Hill. age 14 years, did a fabulous Job and showed just how much he has learned. Heard via the grapevine that he has been drumming for about two years. He was just great; the band members were bursting with pride; not to mention his father. What rumor is this following on the breeze? It seems there are subtle hints that the pipe band might be making it a Car- ibbean Holiday in 1973. Any takers? Branch 375 had its usual good crowd out for the Friday night social evening. Many new faces each night out and always a pleasure to greet them. We are all eagerly waiting for the fall season when we will see that fabulous chorus line in action once more.

Back in 1968 he joined a group which negotiated with the provincial government about a northern com- muter service. They were armed with statistical data and signed statements that such a service was desirable and economically feasible. Realizing that a more graphic demonstration of the need and support for such a seche in this area was nec- essary. in 1969 Mr. Medcol‘ chartered a train and ran a GO-GO Special from Barrie to Toronto. and return. to prove that it would pay. Eight hundred and eighty tickets were sold and the “Railway Boosters" made a profit of $300 which was turned over to the provincial government to prove the point. In the meantime. recognizing the need for improved transportation for commuters into Toronto from the north. last year Queen's Park in co-operation with the Gray Coach Lines introduced a G0 Bus service from Newmarket to Toronto. which met with immediate accept- ance by the people of this area. Again its patronage was much greater than had been anticipated and extra buses have had to be added. Mr. Medcoff and his group have also fought to have existing services preserved and upgraded. appearing before the Board of Transport Commissioners early in 1970 to protest the proposed discontinuation of service on the Guelph line. This resulted in the railway being ordered to continue and upgrade the service. Mr. Campbell did not agree that there would be a satis- factory alternative. “It‘s just one pebble on a whole beach,” he said.

UNWANTABLES PHONE 884-1105 Research Grant To Aid Analysis Family lile Counselling Service A provincial grant of $16,500. has been made to the Family Life Centre in Markham to help finance preparation of an analy- sis of its program of family counselling and family life edu- cation. In announcing the awarding of the grant, Minister of Social and Family Services Thomas Wells explained, “This research grant is designed to help the centre discover what the coun‘ selling and family life education needs of the community actually are, and then to develop an integrated program to fill these needs.” A grass-roots development, the centre was established four years ago by concerned citi- zens to serve the needs of the 25,000 residents of the Mark- ham-Unionville-Stouffville area. Present director is Mario Barto- letti, a course director in group interaction at York University who set up a program of family therapy for the department of public health in the Borough of York before coming to Markham learly in 1970. protest discontinuation of the CNR‘s one-way wonder to Markham and the CPR service to Havelock east of Peterboro. Again the railways were orderedlto main- tain and upgrade these services. In fact. in the case of the Markham run. the railway was ordered to extend the service to .Stouffville and run a morning as well as an evening tram. Mr. Medcof's letters to Prime Minister Trudeau and his report on the 60-60 Special are included in source material which will b:e studied by the federal experts in this new study. William Hodgson. MLA York North. also was delighted with the new turn of events. “It certainly makes me happy," he stated as he expressed great faith that a GO North commuter rail service will be a reality within a year at the outside. Mr. Hodgson recalled that he had introduced a motion into the Legislature in 1968 calling for such a serVice. “It's a case of keeping on knocking and you finally get an answer." Robert Sillcox. member of King Township Planning Board. whose active campaigning for GO North started four years ago and has persisted. was not quite so optimistic. “I am delighted. of course, and I want to believe that on March 15 I will be able to stand on the station platform. either in Richmond Hill or Aurora, and board a commuter train for Toronto. We've been led up the garden path before and I would be a lot happier if a firm commitment had been given. There’s no firm commitment to anything, and atlhough I so badly want to believe that this is what we are working for. the nagging doubt remains that this could be just another carrot held out to the people just before an election.” “We believe it is unique in North America because it was the first full-tlme service such as this organized and supported by the community,” says Mr. Bartolotti. The department became in- terested, and this year decided to use it as a pilot project which might be extended to other communities.
