After returning from a rather hum-drum business trip last week, I went through the usual Terminal 2 exer- cise at the Airport, found my car in that monstrous park- ing lot, and approached the check-out cashier. Out popped the one arm of the cashier, belonging to a dark-skinned girl with a smile of bright white teeth. As I gave her my parking stub I said, “Your hand must get awfully cold” to which she replied “No”. Being a male chauvinist, I persisted by remarking, “Gee, I was going to hold your hand to warm it up". She in turn retorted “Thanks”, but its my legs that get cold!" With a returning smile I said “Forget it” and drove away. Remember to keep the date of February 19 open for the Lions' annual oyster supper at All Saints Anglican.

Richmond Hill Council de- cided unanimously at its Jan- uary 8 meeting to opDose the annlication of the Aurora Bus Lines to extend into the Oak Ridges-Lake Wilcox area of this town. A public hearing called by the Ministry of Transportation and Commun- ications was held January 14 at which this opposition would be voiced. The decis. ion came on a motion by Councillor Graeme Bales, chairman of council’s traffic. transportation and parking committee and Councillor David Stephenson. Mr. Bales reported that the application would also be opposed by the Gray Coach (on behalf of the GO Tran- sit). the TTC and Travelways. Ron Farquharson, owner of Aurora Bus Lines also seeks to extend his bus service up Yonge Street to the Upper Canada Mall (to be opened this spring).
