I guess everyone looks forward to holidays but the shorter they are the greater the anticipation and the greater the need for careful planning. I’ve seen whole families delightfully engaged parcelling out travelling chores and responsibilities. Each family member becomes equally involved emotionally and physically. A carefully planned and executed trip becomes a valued shared memory. The winter break through is not a family holi- day -â€" it’s just for students and teachers. They used to be called Easter Holidays and fell in March or April depending on the vagaries of the moon. The Department of_Education is sensitive to the many religious faiths in our society and so they decided to set the holidays arbitrarily without ref- erence to any religious holiday. After long, careful deliberation they finally selected the worst possible time. You can’t ski and you can't play ball but if you stay out of the puddles you can stand on the pavement and breathe deeply. Parents would never dream of staying home â€"â€" they’d just pack up and go south. 7 _ ‘i n . . 1 1 1 'L parents v gun. The kids, very often. just stay home and watch TV.

Fearful that any increase in spending would mean an increase in taxes, York Regional Council struggled valiantly last week to cut back on draft estimates submitted by its various de- partments. Early indications were that gross expenditures would exceed $24 million. $6.8 million over 1971. Of this it was anticipated that $6.9 million would be levied against the regional rate- payer â€"â€" up $1.6 million from a year ago. In the absence of assess- ment figures. council agreed to play it safe. to act on the assumption that there would be no increase in aSsessment. and to ail for a break-even budget. Committees are reviewing their estimates this week and will meet again Friday with what they hope will be an acceptable budget. Assessment figui‘es should be ai'ailahle this week, Regional Treasurer John l-llynski told cm'm‘il at a two-day finance meet- ing last week. Any increase in expendi- ture would affect farm assessment more than rest- dentia]. predicted East Gwillimbury Mayor Gladys Rolling. Region Aims For $1 M Cut Budget Estimates Richmond Hill Councillor Assessment Uncertain The Winter Break Donald Plaxtou did not agree. He cited the “Clarke Decision”. .3 test case which resulted in a court victory for farmers who objected to assessment of farm land on the basis of market value rather than productivity. In York. Halton and Peel. farm assessments are based on a court decision result- ing from the now famous Cyril Clarke appeal. Using the Clarke formula. farm properties are assessed ac- cording to productivity. The Clarke decision. said Plaxton, has eliminated the. project of increases in farm assessment placing the burâ€" den on the urban home mmer. There is a ray of hope, however. said Plax- ton. If there is no increase in assessment, he said. the Clarke decision would be a good base for an appeal to the province for an in- crease in grants. "If they (the province) are Eoing to restrict. o u r growth." said A u r o r a Mayor Richard Illjngu‘orth. “they “ill have to help us." M a r k h a m Councillor James Jongeneel said there must surely be some in- crease in assessment in the 1- e g i o n. “Building is booming in Markham. We issued $2.5 million in build- ing permits in January." There were other leading lights on the Dynes victory we march including Kinnersly who‘cri finished in a first place tie 1.00 with Mexico's Eugene Gaire can with 12 hits out of 28 times at 5 ‘bat for a .429 average. ,1.“ ijnes Jewellers Are '72 World's Softball Champions "He played beautiful ball,” said Cripps. “We wouldn't have done it without that catch of his." Coming in for equal praise was Jumping Joe O'Neill who ac- counted for at least three of the Dynes wins with his clutch- bat. O’Neill missed most of the final game when he hurt his leg in the outfield. It was O‘Neill who knocked in the winning runs against New Zealand (2-1), the United States (1-0 in their first meet- ing); and the aforementioned 1-0 victory against New Zealand in the playoffs.

Many have complained about the situation on the sidewalks, as these two Yonge Street North medical secretaries know and demonstrate. The snowbank they are climbing completely blocks the town’s main street sidewalk. At left is Mrs. Linda Epworth of Yonge Street, Thornhill, with Miss Lynn Bisset of Yonge Street, Willowdale. This particular snowbank is located right across Yonge Street from the offices of the mayor and town officials. Still it sat there for weeks. Doctors’ offices were full of patients with sprains, strains and broken bones suffered on icy and uncleared walkway-s. Heavy ice layers covered sidewalks in front of schools, the library, churches, banks, stores, homes and businesses. One of the few sidewalks kept relatively clear was that in front of the town municipal offices and the fire hall.

They bombed the Philippines 8-0 with Domik pitching a shut- out, edged by the States 1-0 and then downed Singapore 7-0 to end up in first place in the 10- team elimination round-robin. i In 1970. said Plaxton, the police department of Richmond {Hill accounted for ten percent of the municipal budget. In the past two years it has increased to 20 percent. Education ac- counted for 58 percent of the local tax levy. leaving about 35 percent for all other needs. Since the police are sup- ported 100 percent by real estate taxes, said Plaxton. The win was the second in a row for the Rams in their best- ofâ€"seven Metro Junior “B” play- offs. They opened the series with a 7-3 win over Dixie Sun- day in Dixie. In his municipality. said the mayor. the people are not get- lin'! the sclwice they used to with the old police force.

Richmond Hill Councillor Gordon R0\\‘e was not concern- ed about criticism levelled at individual officers. In a force of 160. he said. there were bound to be "a couple of bad apples." Considering the proximity to Metro. the hardened drug ped- dlers. knife carriers. police had many problems to contend with. On the “hole. he said. York should be pleased with its police force. East Gwillimbury Mayor Gladys Rolling agreed. “I like to feel safe. We need more pol- ice." With an eye to costs. Mark- ham Councillor James Jongen- ccl objected in increases in ve- hicle repairs and maintenance and suggcsled that the depart- ment consider using some motorcycles and cutting back on the number of cars. Councillor Plaxton suggested that the police consider phasing the staff increase. hiring in stages instead of all at once and spreading the salary increase over the year. There could also be a saring in the operational budget. he said. if the new radio communications system was de- bentured. He conceded it would cost more in the long run in interest payments. but argued that the equipment would be used for many years, that the ratepayers of the region should not be expected to cough up the whole $161,000 in one year. Newmarket Councillor Ray Twinuey, a member of the police commission, ob- jected to zeroing in on the police. In discussion of bud- get cuts the following day, Twinney told council, “1 don't favor cutting the no]- ice budget if you don‘t cut anyone else.” He asked that guidelines be set for each committee. All committees and depart- ments were subject to critic- ism ot‘ their estimates and rec- ommendations were made for cuts. Mayor Illingworth ob- jected repeatedly to the “piece- meal cuts” called for by various members of council, and it was finally agreed that all estimates should go back to committee. The budget must be finalized and submitted to the province by the end of March Dixie took a 3-1 lead into the third period. but blew it at 4:48 when Brian Allworthy ran into a stupid interference pen- alty. This was all the incentive the threatening Rams needed and Craig Terry took a pass, cut in front of the net and lifted a high shot into the rigging. From there on in it was all downhill for Richmond Hill with Colp tying the game up at 8:08 from John Barnett. Goalie Gary Carr seemed slightly off-key in that first period, but came on to make some fine saves in the remain- ing two. llllllllllllllulllllllllllfllllllllll“Hulllllllllllllllllllllmlllll\lllllll\\llll Supporter Stickers A vailable nuuumummmlIlmummuuuumummmmuumuuumuuuuw “Support Richmond Hill Dynes Jewellers, world fastball champions 1972." is the message contained on a bumper sticker which will be sold at 50¢: each to help defray the team's deficit in meeting the expenses of their trip to Manila, the Phillipines.
