TILL s Following the event, add- ing insult to injury, Gord Mills walked off as winner of the cooked ham in a com- petitive draw. As one dis- gusted loser stated: "Ham goes to Ham", and Gordie probably laughed all the way home to Adelaide. The only lady marks- woman to score was Mrs. Mary Pillage who. no doubt. received professional help from husband, Rick, who once shot Zeros while serv- ing in the United States Navy. Other winners were George Ellis, Andy Graham, Norm McHardy and George Hargreave. Comrade Mickey Smith, a veritable dead-eye, “Sergeant York", shot a bird for the fourth year in succession. Alec Kernohan tied twice in a shootâ€"off session and fin- ally went into sudden death overtime before taking a bird home. Ten fat turkeys were sub- jected to heavy fire in a fusillade of shots from 120 Legion marksmen and wom- en, with Comrade Tom Mc- Keage winning top honors by scoring 18 bullseyes at the event. Our August air- cadet officer, who serves pizza on the side, was quick in spreading his expertise and handed out professional shooting hints to Ned Cook and Paul Antilla. While the professional help consisted only of rubbing elbows to- gether; it paid off, and both gents subsequently walked away with a dead turk. Comrade Gord Mills, ably assisted by “Rabi” George Sullivan, conducted his Fourth Annual Christmas Turkey Shoot Friday.

And while on the subject of past reporting where it was stated that some of the ditches encircling the Legion premises resembled a com- bination of the Palo Duro and Grand Canyons. We now report that the ap- proaches on Ohio Road have been developed to provide much more of the same. In a recent snowstorm, the first casualty was sustained when Comrade Ken Barrott went down on a curve. And the fishing was great for the tow truck casting a line into the chasm. Come spring, the Colorado River system should provide an ample moat for Prince Philip’s‘ Fortress. Further to last week's re- port in which was stated that decorational hangings were supervised by executioner. Frank Barrott; we may now report that the Lord High Priest has become the proud owner of a guillotine. It is presumed from this that all future executions will now be carried out bilingually. USE OUR vnresrone REVOLVING CHARGE PLAN AMERICAN EXPRESS m CHARGEX Mr. Toshima said the com- plex was designed to meet the four main needs of the people who would occupy it: a co-operative complex with individual i‘demimy retained; privacy and community shar- ing â€" certain facilities Should be shared; continuity and orderly growth: the need to make effective use of public funds. Mr. Toshima also sugges- ted, in the further interests Other representative mem- bers of the over-all commit- tee are Richmond Hill Social Planning Committee, York Regional Health and Social Services and York Regional Police. Mr. Toshima’s flirm had been appointed by an ad hoc committee of the BAIF School Complex Committee, to develop aplan for the facilities required by the three principal bodies, York County and Roman Catholic School Boards, and the Town of Richmond Hill. Close by, of course, too, would be the proposed Rich- mond Hill Recreation Centre, all of which would tie in with -the original idea of the project: community sharing of community facilities. Monday night December 10 at a meeting of York County Board of Education, Architect Ted Toshima of the firm of Raymond Moriyama, with the aid of an overhead projector, showed plans for the new complex, which found the element» ary, secondary and Roman Catholic schools within a short chalk toss of each other, and all united by a main street, with the whole thing enclosed in the ,manner of an indoor shopping mall.

Trustee John MacKay of Markham, termed the project a “fine” one, which the board should endorse in its entirety.
