It was a‘pleasing ending for the local side with the Rams rather fortunate to stave off the Raiders who had a number of scoring chances but just couldn't take advantage of them. The Rams held a 2-0 lead at one point in the first per- iod but Wexford went ahead 3-2 at the end of the period. Richmond Hill tied the score in the second period and outscored the Raiders 2-1 in the final 20 minutes.

According to police, 40 of the trophies were taken from a display case 'in the lobby of the club following a break-in. It was trophy night at Richmond Hill Golf and Counltry Club on the wee- kend, but none of the of- ficials knew about it. Spruce Avenue. Richvale, told police he was beaten by a man from whom he had purchased a load of manure after the two had returned -to the latters home for some drinks upon delivery of the load.

But all of these need to be extensively tested before adoption to see if they will stand up. For example, buil- der's and CMHC still don't know how plastic pipe will stand up to hot water. Fur- thermore. Mr. Wrightson d0- esn't think that these ideas will make any substantial reduction in the cost ‘of a home, since land and labor represent [the lion's share. During his two decades with CHMC Mr. Wright‘son has seen many changes in construction methods, the types of housing. the advent of the condominium, new materials, changes in subdi- vision road patterns and skyrocketing prices. Ready-mix concrete has replaced the old cement mixer, air guns with staples have replaced the hammer for framing and walls and cupboards are now built in the plant instead of on the site. Two-by-fours are now Cost of serviced land keeps skyrocketing. partly because of [the high cost of services and partly because holdings are concentrated in the hands of relatively few companies. Lengthy delays in getting approvals for sub- diwsions also ado to the fi- n-al price tag. The situation can only get worse. according to Mr. Wrightson, because labor keeps getting more expen- sive and now represents more than 50% of the total cost (including the labor in the cost of materials). Furthermore he believes that the quality of workmanâ€" ship is not as good in hou- ses built today as it was on- ly 15 years ago. Mr. Wright- son retired recently. The old-time tradesmen are spread too thinly and you just don't get the same quality. "They're dying off and there's nobody to rep- lace them." ‘he said. Builders have solved the problem partially by prefabrica‘ting walls and cupboards and using drywall material in» stead of plastering. “They can get by as long as they have some skilled workmen to supervise the work in controlled, factory condi- tions.“ Mr. Wrightson has obser- ved that housing designs run in cycles. Twoatorey homes were succeeded by bunga- lows with a porch across the front and a built-in garage with a bedroom behind it, then came the ranch-style bungalow and the split-level. Now twoâ€"storey homes are coming back, particularly in town housing. which used to be called row housing. This, too, has changed to relieve the monotony, with a varie- ty of window sizes and deâ€" signs and by staggering the structures instead of putting them in a straight line. Year round construction is now the order of the day but is not used much in sin- In Toronto most single-fa- mily houses are now beyond the financial reach of most families. Lots alone start at about $15,000, says Lewis Wrightson, who has been se- nior inspector for the Kit- chen-er area office of Cent- ral Mortgage and Housing Corp. for the past 20 years. Furthermore he bell-eves that the quality of workman- ship is not as good in hou- ses buiLt today as it was on- ly 15 years ago. Mr, Wright- son retired recently.

STARTING TIME 106 Centre St. East 271 Bay Thorn Drive Thornhill 889-0391 York Regional Police said that three shots were fired from a parked car at Kovac- his. Mrs. Christine Prijatelj, 28. and Shirley Huisman, 37, both employees of the farm. Alexander Kovachis. 37. of Willowdale. who two years ago was convicted of man- slaughter in the shooting death of James Redmond, of Bradford. was himself a member of a trio who were shot at last week while work- ing at a Holland Marsh Farm managed by Kovachis. Police said that two shots hit Kovachis‘ car, which the three had driven to the farm in. and one went wild. When his gunâ€"a .22 calibre rifleâ€" jammed, the man fled. to Kovachis’ house in Brad- ford. ostensibly to look for some relatives of his. “That’s what you get for stealing my booze." Kovachis is alleged to have said at the time. Kovachis was originally charged with non-capital murder. 11/2 by 31/5 inches, drywall materials have replaced plaster and unfortunately minimum standards have be- ! come the standards. The old isquare grid road pattern for subdivisions has been replaced with winding road patterns to slow down trarf- , fic. He was picked up later in the day at his brother‘s house on Concession 4 in King. The manslaughter charge against Kovachis resulted from the fatal shooting of Redmond after he had gone Charged with attempted murder, pointing, a firearm, endangering life, was Simon Prijatelj, 28, of Toronto. at brother-in-law of Mrs. Pri- jatelj. Charge Toronto Man Shooting Simon Prijatelj Year round construction is now the ordei- of (the day but is not used much in sin- gle family housing since it adds about $600 more to the cost. Mrs. Wrights-on said. One writer and a citizen in attendance at the meeting contended that the Superior and Crawford pits are really no long term problem. Pro- vincial legislation would re- quire the pit operators to grade and level them. If this is done, the land level would still be above the level of Keele Street and would be suitable for recreation pur- poses or even for a subdivis- ion. it was said. The meeting was inform- ed of over 40 written replies received to a leaflet distrib- uted throughout Maple on the garbage issue, all offerâ€" ing support. A show of hands indicated the written opposi- tion came mostly from peo- ple not at the public meet- ing. A lady citizen said, “I don't care at all about all the expert and technical op- inion. It’s an emotional thing. We don't want Maple to become known as a gar- bage dump. I just moved to Maple and want the quality of life maintained. Why does council keep on taking this sort of thing from Mr. Goodhead?” she asked, HOPE FOR COUNCIL This was when Becker gave his answer about origâ€" inal sin But he added, “I believe there are members of council who are willing to listen and can be convinced to form a majority on our side.” Becker continued, “Nobody among the citizenry has told the town council vigorously enough that this sort of council behavior isn't going to be tolerated. We need a council which will make cer- tain the necessary bylaws are enacted to stop the dumping . . . but more im- Iportant, a council that will see such laws are going to be enforced." 50 Million Tons Of Garbage COULD BE LEVELLED (Continued from Page 1) OUT OF TOWN CALL COLLECT 39 Glencameron Road 460 Elgin Mills Road WILLOWDALE RICHMOND HILI. 889-8763 FULL-TIME CHAIRMAN Last week it was announc- ed David Caverly, assistant deputy minister of environ- ment. is appointed the first fullâ€"time chairman of the ‘Environment Hearing Board.

In Markham, firemen spent much of their time answering fire remote alarms â€" five in one day â€" at factories in the area. The alarms had all triggered by a surge in pressure and none of was legitimate. A small fire occurred when an electric motor in the air conditioner overheated at the York Regional Police ’buildâ€" ing. 2160 Highway 7. In Vaughan, it was the police who needed the serv- ices of the fire department. Richmond Hill Fire Depart- ment was called upon last week to assist a couple from the Senior Citizens building. 75 Dufferin Street, who had collapsed. Firemen used the resusci- tator to revive the couple. Mr. and Mrs. A. Davenport, who were then taken to York Central Hospital for treat- ment. It. was not known what caused them to collapse.
