WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1981, PAGE 7 60,000 people s oon to live in Whi*tby CONT'D FROM PG. 3 government has flot iived up to its expecta- tions in the planning area. Emm says that the regional planning fun- ction has's not lived Up to the expectations of what I thought it would."' H1e is critical of the second-tier govern- ment's role as being another hurdle for people to jump. "'It's just another avenue people have to go,"P Emm says, "There's just more delay. " However, one of the advantages of the current system in Emm's estimation is "the bringing together of industrial areas ready for servicing." In other words, the region would prevent the construction of a major industrial project on the Oshawa/Whitby border, for example, next to a major resi- dential area. However, a slightly different view is taken by Mayor Bob Attersley who says that some- times it is good to have two different bodies look at a proposaI. This way more saffe- guards can be built into the planning process, .Attersley says, and points to the develop- ment of Brooklin as an example. However, al of these gentlemen agree that planning wiil be playing a greater role in the community in the years to corne as Whitby ex- periences steady resi- dential and industrial growth. The Whitby of 1981 is very different from the Whitby of 1961 and the I j' Br~k1lin ~ Byines tir. By Roxanne RevelerJ1 Hi there: Why is it kids only get sick in the middle of the night on weekends, or when your doctor is on vaca- tion? Before I start 1 would like to correct a typo- graphical error made last week. - On speaking of Meadowcrest principal Joy Bain 1 stated she hadi been vice-principal at Meadowcrest two years ago.... .this in fact should have been 12 years ago. This would make more sense as Joy was of course the principal of Florence M. Heard School in Whitby for the past eight years.

PUNKIN HEADS Although most of the fun activities at the Fal Fest, sponsored by the Brooklin Business Associa-' tion in Grass Park last Saturday (September 26) had to be cancelled due to the inclement weather, the purnpkin carving contest went aheaçi as scheduled, ramn or no ramn. Over 20 kids par- ticipated, and surprised everyone with their ingenuity and artistic abilities. North Ward Coun- cillor Ross Batten had difficult in judging, but finally came up with four winners. Prizes were given to the boy and girl who carved the saddest and happiest pumpkins. Winners of the saddest little punkin went to Leanne Cole and Chris Oke, and the happy pumpkin winners were Darlene Cole and Grant Cole. Prizes were awarded for special effort to Peggy Nancekivell, Janice Boudrea, and Rhonda- Bogart. Gifts of penis, and balloons were given to each participant, and'donated by Broad Travel and Quick Bite. Special thanks to ail those who heiped, especially Valerie Hundert who organized every- thing. WOMEN'S INSTITUTE At the last meeting of the Women's Institute, Rev. Elliot's speech on citizenship and world affairs was greatly enjoyed. Industrial methods ini Canada, the U.S.A. and the Third World Countr ies was ex- plained, and members were invited to take part in the discussion. The meeting was chaired by presi- dent Marion Hall, with convenor Ruby Sonley, hostesses Marion Hall and Eileen Young, and current events by Mrs. C. Arksey brought forth the latest news. The topie of conversation was "how to keep from being old," with suggestions of keeping active through exercise, and participating more with young people being offered from the floor. The convenor for October will be Mrs. Levi Arksey and the hostesses will be Mrs. W. Ross and Mrs. M. Brown.

DON'T FORGET NOW Brooklin United Church Women will be holding "Faîl Fashions by Eatons"i.,n Wednesday, October 7 at 1: 15 p.m. in the Church Hall.

Plan to attend as this is shaping up to be a great event. TIP 0F THE WEEK To banish unpleasant kitchen odors, put a piece of orange peel on an electric burner, turn the heat to the lowest sett ing, and let the peel burn slowly for about 10 minutes. It will give off a fresh, spicy smell which lasts much longer than the comrnercially bought kind and is far, far cheaper. There will be no bylines next week as I arn taking my annual vacation. Hope you will bear with me and that it will not cause any great inconvenience. See you week after next. .Roxanne Reveler Brooklin Bakery Drop Off Friday before noon please 655-4951.
