We elected Gayle Blakely for President, Debbie McGee for Vice President, Lyn Cordner for Treasurer, and Marion Couperthwaite for Press Re- porter. After the business Mrs. Couperthwaite talked on the use of food and the value of milk. Mrs. Lee showed how to measure ingredien- ces and she made junket in two different ways. This project is very inter- esting and shows many dif- ferent ways in which to serve milk.

The budget was adopted than the expression of opin- the road system should not be allowed to deteriorate through cut backs in expen- ditures. Of the total the county's share will be $1,235,290 which will require a tax levy of 7.5 mills compared with the 1968 levy for this pur- pose of 7.4 mills.: The county will receive $1,775,960 in subsidies from the province; while Oshawa will contribute $110,650 as its share of Osh- awa Suburban Road Commis- sion projects. In presenting its report, the committee said the 1969 total expenditure, including development roads, is $661,- 700 less than 1968. It made drastic reductions, particu- larly in construction categor- ies, to reduce the levy. ° It was noted maintenance and fixed overhead costs have risen approximately 10 per cent per year as a result of increases in labor and ma- terial costs, Construction costs had increased consider- ably more than 10 per cent as a result of increases in land costs, cost of gravel, earth moving, labor, ete. The new expropriation act will, it forecast, create even greater land acquisition costs. Major construction, exclud- ing preliminary and prepara- tion items, will be reduced to approximately eight miles this year. The county road system now consists of al- Manchester.

Counciliomes WANTED -- Sugar and Spice -- : Continued great institutions cowering and cringing under the attacks of malcontented, Marxist wolf-cubs who represent a fraction of stu- dent opinion. As Mordecai Richler pointed out recent- ly, the real yuk of the whole affair is that while the student activists endorse any- thing, up to the burning of buildings, they are scared stiff lest they get a police re- cord, which would be a serious detriment when they try to get a job.in the system they are trying to destroy. The solution? Kick out the hard-nosed boys and girls, for whom democracy is a sham anyway. Sock it to them with the law when they disturb the peace or com- mit vandalism. And get back to the busi- ness of educating, or teaching tc think, the vast majority who want those things. So now I'm a fascist, and a tool of the imperialistic press. I knew it at heart. --Toronto Telegram Syndicate AAA A A A a A A A A A A A SS A A LS SS CNN NCTE KEN P.
