F or a t o wn as sports enthused as W h i t b y is, many of the right kinds of facili1ties a re desp e rately needed for aspiring, young sports enthusiasts. The town is particularîy fortunate in the many hours devouted each season f or t he benef it of young -hockey pl ay- r e s, basebal f a ns, soccer and l ac- r o sse b uf fs; for tunate for the Dutch Morri sons, th e Doug Weaîes, the Ken MacDonal1ds , Neil Murkars, Hubert Adebars, Bill Stan'netts and Max Cases of this community. T he handicap for t he townts some 1 20 0 h o c key players is obvious, of course, w ith the recent arena clos- ure. Theswimming pool has been need- ed for a long time.

If and when these facilities are installed the cost 1 Ili., 3l1. Local basebal1 and soccer associat- ions face problems as frustrating to those, involved. T on ig9ht at'a speci al meeting to be h el d here in town,a careful ly laid* out plan will be lau-nched to set up a poss- i b 1 y m ul ti purpose recreation-sports centre. The project i s being set up by a group of ded icated local people in order to suppi y the youth of Whitby with the proper facilities they need. The important thing nowv is keeping al ive the enthusiasrrîof our young sports buffs. The move for acomprehensive sports recreat ion centre i s one that makes good, sense. Nothing i s t oo good for the kind of sports talent that this towvn is only beg- inning to demonstrate.
