Two hundred people paid to lose their hair for a good cause Sunday. The Family Hair Cut-A-Thon, sponsored by the York Central Hospital Auxiliary was, despite the weather, a success. People came from as far as Sherway Gardens to have their hair cut and to save money. For $5 a but and $3 a trim, everyone agreed the price was right and the styles weye great._ The professional stylists from seven community salons donated their time, talents, and all -the proceeds to the auxiliary. 200 heads equals auxiliary profit Stylisfs were Lynn from Minerva‘s Beauty Salon; Armando from Apollo 11 Youngsters collect garbage, all right So you think you know Richmond Hill, huh?

Village Coiffure was the host salon with their sty’lists Monica, Carolyn and Ann. Hospital Auxiliary members were kept busy sweeping up the hair, making sure everything went smoothly, and serving refreshments. Thei Cut-A-Thon was the second hospital auxiliary fund raising event held on the weekend. Saturday, the Junior Auxiliary spent the day washing cars at four locations in the district. The adults, expecting bags full of pop bottles, beer bottles, and assorted paper trash, had a big surprise coming to them. The kids returned with a mind boggling assortment of junk. Kén Carruthers dragged in a stove and bed springs. His brdthef, Eric found a ‘Just Married‘ sign, apparently discarded in a hurry. Miké Crock came back with ten pounds of nails and spikes held aloft in his t-shirt. Mike Smith needed all his strength to haul in his find, a manhole cover. If York Region is looking for their property, they can rescue it from the dump: Bobby Johnston had to struggle a bit with the rear end and transmission from a Volkswagen. The garbage was collected along the Gormley (Stouffville) Sideroad in and near the Bayview extension. Is this area going to become a new garbage dump? Of note, was the fact that in all the garbage, there wasn’t even one part of a snowmobile. Other youngsters who brought back garbage were: Cathy, Susan and Daryl Poirier, Karrie Mottershall, Robby Parker. Alex Brockton, Bobby and Steve Parker, Lori and Kelli Newstead. Gary Warner, Gary Crock, Sean Johnston, Jamie Simmerson, Shawn Raven and Jerry Wallace. Other items collected include car seats. strollers, bed frames and the normal accumulation of junk. Someone out there has a car or dune buggy that isn’t running properly.

While the town’s engineering committee is listening to plans for landscaping Yonge Street between Highway 7 and Major Mackenzie Drive, Richmond Hill Council is worried about how things will look above the road. And so begins another chapter in the “where do we put the hydro lines” debate.

But Councillor Lois Hancey thinks Hydro should get on with the job. “This is an unnecessary expense to the ratepayers by forcing an 0MB hearing," she said, calling the motion “discriminatory”. She said she didn’t want the hydro lines “anymore than anyone else”, but “somewhere you have to draw the line".

The street itself will become a five- lane thoroughfare, allowing two nor- thbound and two southbound lanes and a left turn lane. And the first spring following reconstruction of Yonge Street, ex- tensive landscaping will begin. Officials of the Ministry of Tran- sportation and Communications and the Proctor and Redfern Group outlined the plans to Richmond Hill’s engineering committee Thursday morning. Friday, most of the action switches to the Richmond Hill Arena where some 60 booths will be operated by various Richmond Hill clubs, organizations and groups. ' Friday, the arena will be open from 6 to 10 pm. and on Saturday, the building will open at 9:30 am. and close at 6 Discovery Days, only half over, has already been termed a great success. And the best, so they say, is yet to come. Inside, there will be a prize given away every half hour the building is open, Civic Improvement Committee Chairman Glen Waugh said. ‘ The Block Parents will also be of- fering a prize to the winner of the “Name the Block Parent Mascot”. They’re in Booth 7. The Richmond Hill Horticultural Society, located in Booth 13 will be growing plants under lights, arranging flowers, and teaching the art of drying flowers.

Ceremony took place Saturday at Burr House. Discovery Days events continue through this Saturday. Varieties of rugged trees. such as Norway Maple, Linden and Locust, will be planted, which have a good chance of survival in the high commercial area. While the design impressed members of the committee. they were concerned that no traffic lights appeared to be planned between Highway 7 and Carrville Road. None of the guests could comment on whether lights would be installed. Street lights, he said. would be uniform, located 200 feet apart on both sides of the road. The entire project will be sodded right after the reconstruction. No sidewalk has been planned for the east side of Yonge. Planners believe the landscaping work should get underway in the spring of 1980, and said the project would not be delayed even if the Yonge Street plan south of Highway 7 is not agreed upon. “Their co-oberation has been over- whelming," Mr. Waugh told The Liberal. “And the Arena Board and Ed Sackfieid have been very positive in their assistance.” It was encouraging to see the turnout, considering some 5,000 people were attending Thomhili's Jubilee at the same time, he said. Despite the inclement weather Saturday, a good crowd was on hand at Burr House to officially open Discovery Days. Mr. Wangh paid tribute to the Rich- mond Hill merchants who “have really bggfltgrrific", he rs_aid._ Méanwhlle, at the Mill Pond Satur- day, Art in the Park will be in full swing.
