12 The Canadiaxi Statesman, Bowmanville, October 17, 1979 Rotarians Visit Marina for Weekly- Luncheon Rotary luncheon took a nautical twist last week when members attended their weekly meeting at Port Darlington Marina where guest speaker was Dr. James Cruise of the Royal Ontario Museum. By Donna Fairey Among the world's museums, Toronto's Royal Ontario Museum ranks in the top ten and it will soon be bigger and better yet. Rotary luncheon at Port Darlington Marina ast Thursday featured ROM's fîftb director, Dr. James Cruise, as guest speaker. He disclosed many interesting facts about the museum and, in particular, détails concerning the $44.5 million renovation/expansion project underway. Located on the corner of Queens Park and Bloor Street, the ROM was built in 1912 and current expansion will represent the first major renovation program in 46 years. The addition will consist of two new nine-storey buildings (only six will be above ground) wich will infill the nortb and soutb courtyards of the ROM's existing H-shaped structure. Rotarians were told the museum's need for a general g bysical overbaul bas long een acute. So cramped are ROM's divisions that some departments can display only about five per cent of tbeir treasures at one time. Trhe last notable expansion of the cultural facility took place during tbe depression and renovation at that time was a pick and shovelý undertaking to provide jobs for the unemployed at 25 cents per bour. Projected completion date for tbis latest addition is February 1981. Expansion will provide substantial energy savings since tbree exterior perimeter walhs will now become interior walls. For effîcent energy ütilization, the heat of ligbts, equipment, people and, when available. sohar energy, will be reclaimed by air systems to heat the building and domestic bot water, Eigbt departments currently boused in off-site rented premises will be moved to the completed museum. This centralization will result in a considerable saving in the manpower now expended in travelling and transporting collections back and forth. According to Dr. Cruise, it is anticipated that a large share of the projeet cost will be underwritten by varlous levels of government. Already the provincial government has pledged a grant of $12,750,000 and will match with Wintario funds all monies raised through ROM's first fund raising appeal in its 66 year history. During the academic year, at least 1000 students per day troop through the present museum to view Egyptian mummies, dinosaur fossils, early Canadiana, life sciences, one of the finest Chinese collections in the western world and 7,000 spec- imens of rocks, minerais and gems. During the forthcoming scbool year, schools in Ontario will be orgamizing fund raising activities to belp build their new ROM. Rotarians learned that an annual $25 million insurance policy protects the museum 's irreplaceable contents. Dr. Cruise told the club this is only one of the multitude of responsibîhities facing ROM's 15 man board of trustees whicb meets il times a year.
