The move will cost Mr. Kenny was able to assure the committee that because of the club's sound fiscal policies, sound financial situation and the enthusiastic response the club enjoys whenever it solicits participation of sup- porters in fund-raising projects, the club can confidently assume responsibility for the cost of moving the station. In addition to that. said Mr. Kenny, the club undertook to bear the cost of- nefurbishing the in- terior of the building for McGregor. Mike Barnett scored the third with the help of Bill Nielson. The line of McGregor, McNally and Shannon teamed up for the final goal with McGregor pulling the trigger. NEXT The next game of the series is today (Wed- nesday) in Owen Sound.

The club would not attempt to change the outside structure and appearance of the building. The precise location of the building in the new park has yet to be decided. There is a strong possibility, however, that the station will in the future enjoy a greater prominence than it has for many, many years. It should be highly visible to anyone driving into or out of town along Elgin Mills. A visible link with the past, the building that many years ago was the first and last sight that people enjoyed as they arrived or departed from The Hill. The soccer club‘s un- dertaking not to alter the extefior appearance of the station means that a historic building will be preserved. Its use of the building as a club headquarters means, further, that the building will continue to live, to serve a useful purpose. This is an idea that David Fayle, chairman of the local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee. has long advocated. Old buildings need not become museum pieces, unproductive or' useless burdens on the taxpayer. With any luck, railway buffs and people whose main interest in the Richmond Hull 883-1511 Hillcrest Mall ext. 228 Sears station is its historical value, may be able to surround it with other artifacts of the age of steam. The soccer club hopes to use the station for at least 10 years; At the end of that time. the station might well become a very “original” entrance to the park. Use of the station, while it is the headquarters of the soccer club, need not be restricted solely to the club. said Mr. Kenny in response to a question. Other community organizations could use the station for meetings.

The station, if all goes well with the soccer club‘s plans, will thus serve the community as a whole. It is to be hoped the community will take an interest in the station. It would be a shame if, because of apathy on the part of the people of Rich- mond Hill, the station were to become merely the headquarters of the Richmond Hill Soccer Club.
