A request from Wilma Martincil, of Ncwtonvillc, for a name change on Langstaff Road (which runs from Shiloh Church north to the Ganaraska Forest) to Shiloh Road has prompted councillors lo ask for a further review and report of the situation. In a letter to council, Mrs. Martincil explained that "every year there arc people looking for Shiloh and this is not asking too much to have the road renamed renamed for Shiloh Church." Mrs. Martincil recently collected a petition of at least 16 names which she presented to council. In the original report from the clerk's office, it was recommended that the name change be denied because because there were no additional additional requests either for or against the name change. With the petition in hand, the councillors decided to lake a second look at the request. request. When Councillor Hal McKnighl asked Mrs. Mar- linell where the name Langstaff had come from her answer was to the point. "I don't want to know," she countered. "Why they chose Langstaff out of all the names available is beyond me," Mrs. Martincil said. In her letter, she said "it takes 75 to over 100'years for a name to be established and used for directions, and someone sitting behind a desk simply cannot wipe out this time by putting up a new name." She explained that the police and fire department are unable to locate homes east of County Road No. 18 by use of a lot and concession concession number. As a compromise to the issue, Councillor Frank Stapleton suggested that the name Langstaff Road be changed to Shiloh Road from the church, north to Kendal. From that point on the name could remain Langstaff Road for the namesake families that Councillor Stapleton said live on the northern part of the road.

The S110 Nuts arc made up of husbands, friends and children of some of the ladies from the Oshawa Rad Stop team. It was due to a strange Town councillors arc hoping that Santa Claus will be kind when he considers their "wish list". The list, which includes such things as libraries schools and a community hall for Courticc, as well as a fire station for the northwest northwest part of the Town of Newcastle, outlines the future future capital needs of the municipality. The projects contained on the list have a tentative price tag of $16 million. Councillors called their capital spending proposals a "wish list" at the general purpose committee meeting meeting on Monday, October 5, when it was suggested that all future projects should be taken into account when considering the availability of funding for the proposed new Bowmanville arena. Councillor Diane Hamre stressed that the list is not of tilings that have to be accomplished accomplished tçday or tomorrow, tomorrow, but do need to be looked at in terms of priorities. Long-range financial planning is needed, according according to Councillor Hal McKnight. Echoing those thoughts was Newcastle Mayor John Winters. "It is an important decision decision for the town. I thinkyou need all the facts," he said. In what turned out to be twist of fate and great ball playing by both teams that the team they came up against, the "Double' A's" also had ladies from their Rad Stop team, with husbands, husbands, friends and brothers, making up the Double A's. On the S110 Nut team a seven hour committee meeting on Monday, a presentation presentation from the arena project team sparked much debate and lengthy discussion. discussion. "We've sal lie re for years and done nothing about it," said Councillor Marie Hub- hard, referring to the need for a new arena. She also stressed that the "multitude of factors" and "considerable dissension" hasn't made the project any easier. "We have deliberated long and hard," she said of the revised proposal that came before councillors earlier this week. there was a mother and two sons, and on the Double A's, three sisters and one brother. Lob Ball can he fun, but mixed is really a family game. The Sno Nuts fought hard games to get to the A-finals on Sunday. They came up against Kevin Cruikshank's team, Klass Akl, and had a tic game until nearly the last inning, we scored to get ahead and played good defensive defensive ball to stay there. Our second game on Saturday was against Orono Jive Bombers, we scraped by with a 5-3 win. Once again our defence was really really great, and the men agreed agreed that though some scof fed about us having three ladies in the field, it wasn't long before our ladies were being applauded for great, saving catches. Sunday was our greatest test. We played McPud's, and we nearly gave up in the third inning; we were losing either 6 or 8 lo nothing, but once our bats came alive, so did our spirits. It was a hard-fought game ending in our favour 14-13. Sunday's final against Double A's was also a challenge challenge because we knew each player and so it was again-not just our bats, but great defense by all to bring us a 9-5 win.
