PAGE 6, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1986, WIIITBY FREE PRESS Town asks MTC to help pay for study Whîtby council was expected to approve a resolution last night requesting financial assistance from the Ministry of Transpor- tation and* Com- munication to carry out a traffic study on Hwy. 12 and Thickson Rd. The study would look at the origin and destination of heavy trucks travelling along the two routes - trucks which many businesses in downtown Whitby and Brooklin dlaim are hur- ting their businesses. The study is required to determine if it is feasible to move the designation of Brock St. as Hwy. 12 to Thickson Rd. The re-designation of Thickson Rd. would in turn remove most of the heavy trucks froni travelling the downtown cores of Whitby and Brooklin. The public works department had earlier asked the MTC to carry out the study but the MTC would not be able to take-on the task until 1987. Since the town wants the study completed as soon as possible, a con-' sultant must be hired to carry it out. The request of the MTC by the town would help cover the estimated $20,000 the study is expected to cost. CARPA From Pg. 1 representatives fror CARPA are looking a] ter the money beiný donated and CARP. currently has retaineï the services of Whitb: lawyer Nigel Schilling although he wouldn' say what role Schillini is playing in the dispute.

Neyer mind that, it is a Urnme to count your blessings. I was thankful that ail my family was gathered for the feast, hale and hearty (except for my dear mother who was off galivanting around the country as usual). I was thankful that my almost 94 year old aunt was stili able to niake the desserts - nobody does It better. I was thankful that my 80 year old aunt volunteered to take my daughter and her fiance back to London thus saving hubby and I a gruelling return trip. I was thankful that the chilciren are old enough to help with the shopping and making the dinner. Maybe next year they'll have matured enough to offer to do the dishes...

MYRTLE NEWS The potluck supper held for the community recen- tly was a huge success with the usual fantastic culinary offerings. The Jubilea choir entertained wlth songs and rhythm. One song stood out from the rest because it was composed by two talented residents. Janet Stachow composed the music while the lyrics were written by Dorothy Manderson. The only sour note was the absence of many of the newer members of the community. It is hoped that on the next occasion they will feel free to corne out and get to know their neighbours better.
