25 Many of our friends and members have been on the travel trail. Some visited places of interest in Texas, Oklahoma and Wyoming. Others tasted the delights of Canada; both eastward and westward. From all reports they had themselves a ball. Whatever you are doing, wherever you are going. we ask only that you travel with care. We would miss you like the dickens if anything hap- pened to any of you. Here it is time for all of us to enjoy ourselves the way we like best. Swimming, boating. hiking. tennis or what have you. Some times we grow weary and want to relaxâ€"soâ€"why not drop in- to the new Legion and mix with some pleasant company. Besides. it is nice and cool. Every Friday night is a reg- ular. Free and Easy is the style. Live entertainment. Come along. join in the fun. You will be glad you did. Sick parade has been rath- er quiet of late. Recently we learned that two of our mem- bers are under the weather. Ron McAndrews is residing at the present time in Sunny- brook Hospital; Ken Barrott is at home under the doctor's care. We hope that our many friends are taking care of themselves. Have you heard what seem to be strange noises coming from the Legion parking lot lately? Do not be alarmed, it is only our new pipe band getting in some practice time. This is a real band. At the present time we have run into a difugalty. Maybe some of our readers can help us. Do you know of anyone own- ing a set of pipes who would consider selling same? If you do. please contact Max Squires or Keith Sanderson at the Legion Hall on any Tuesday evening. Phone: 884~ 7030. Sure hope you can help us!

Last week. Mayor Rob Forhan of NeWmarket, and Councillor Jack Gilbert of Vaughan acting for ailing Mayor Garnet Williams, argued that it was pointless to debate the matter in committee with the press FOUND DEPARTMENT The following articles have been found in the Legion and we are looking for the own~ One gold ring; one sterling silver ear-ring; two sweaters; one jacket.

Each year A meeting of York Regional Planning Com- mittee last week to discuss a proposed interim policy on urban settlement in the region, almost took a back seat to a wrangle as to whether there should be such meetings in the first place when it was all going to be repeated later in open council anyway.

They were lost in a snow storm the last we heard. Could they be headed for Capistrano. If found just send them 'back to us. This past Friday night was a real block buster. Seats were at a premium. It was our pleasure to renew friend- ships with Lucy and Arthur Rickard. This is their annual holiday. We are glad to re- port they are the good people we have always known. Marsh and Grethe Tonner were entertaining guests from Holland. There were many other visitors from out of town. Welcome every- body. We hope you enjoy your stay in the healthy en- virons of Richmond Hill. and public in attendance. The papers then reported on it before it was presented to open council. where all the arguments had to be re- peated again. SAME OLD THING “Let's not everyone bring forth statements here and then do the same thing in council," said Mayor Forhan. “I'm getting tired of saying the same things all the. time." Mr. Gilbert agreed. It was a waste of time to keep re- peating themselves; Not 50, said Councillor Lois Hancey of Richmond Hill: she'd repeat herself 10 times to make her point if she had to. We offer our congratula- tions to Mrs. Gladys McKen- na on winning the weekly raffle. See what you miss by not coming out on a Friday night! Some where in this column we mentioned that two of our runners were missing and somewhat overdue. This now stands corrected. There's only one. The other just stagger- ed in with the belated news that the Legion Ladies’ Soft- ball team won the “B” Cham- pionship in the recent tourn- ament. Congratulations girls. If we can get the inner tube out of the fish pond, we will drop you a line next week. Ta for now. Phon 884-7030 Planning Commissioner Murray Pound said the re- port didn’t prevent any municipality from put-ting forth a proposal on servicing. RETAIN LIFE STYLE? Councillor Hancey said the report put the emphasis on services of necessity, such as police and roads. Who would be responsible for deciding whether. the villages wanted to retain their old "lifestyle." Close- ness and indentification were important in these areas. While on the subject at hand. however, the meeting got stopped by. the very ‘irst recommendation in the report, which stated the region couldn't support large scale development pro- posals for new or expanded municipal service schemes, which had the effect of creating new communities in the rural areas, or give rise to new major urban commu- nities The side debates were en- ough to help exfiend the meeting, so that another had to be scheduled for July 17 at 10 am. “I know you would, Lois," said Mayor Forhan. Mrs. Rolling said she knew growth had to be limited in hamlets and villages, but who would decide what areas were to be serviced. the region of the municipalities? Who decided, for example, whether Mount Albert should be developed? Mayor Gladys Rolling of East Gwillimbury. whose area would be one of those most affected by the policy, said it would be unfair to her municipality if she agreed to the proposal. Councillor Robert Pollock of Georgina Township ag- reed. There would a great onus put on the municipali- ties, if the report were ad- opted in its present form. She said she had given the report to an “impartial person" to read recently and he said “that she would be out other mind to agree to it." She said she could oppose large scale development, but would not want a prohibitive ruling on the matter.

"I think you're going to get a great deal of input on this." he said. Councillor Pollock was concerned about another part of the report, which stated that York would seek interim support from area municipalities, prov- incial Ministries and regio- nal agencies in order to “sa- feguard the integrity” of the York Official Plan. This could become very contentious. he said. and someone from the planning department 5 ‘h o u l d get F78-14 G78-14 G7 8-15 Allull‘luu.’ u. salt-“J â€" u u Saturday â€" 9 am t And thierunday Only â€" 9 am t BENDER RUG CO.
