Mothers enrolled in the Tuesday morning program can bring their children to the day care facilities at the “Y” while they dance. Belly dancing is only one in a list of new programs that have been added to the expanding curriculum. Others include weaving, crocheting, gourmet cooking, plant decorating and rug hooking.

RICHMOND HILL â€" A wild ride down Yonge Street that started in Oak Ridges and wound up at the liquor store in Richmond Hill, resulted in the arrest of an Oak Ridges man on three different charges. According to police it all started when Constable John Morrison spotted the errant driver, who was proceeding south on Yonge at a high rate of speed. Police said the driver was also changing lanes in front of other cars, causing them to brake suddenly. “There is little doubt that additional teachers are urgently needed in at least two secondary schools; Stouffville D.S.S., and Dr. G.W. Williams S.S." Nixon said. The driver then was said to have veered into the north lane to pass cars going south. Following that he drove through a red light at Elgin Mills Road, where police tried to stop him. “In both of these schools there are many classes which clearly have too many students for optimum education - i.e., Stouffville has a class of 42 students. V 'i‘his situation has been brought to the attention of the superintendepts." Nixon noted additional teachers were hired in two of the secondary schools in September when it was evident that enrolment was greater than forecast.
