The meetings are designed to include MPs and MPPs from the Durham region as well. Coun. Des Newman (Whit- by), upon asking what Yourown tax shelter.

"posture the committee will take" in the meetings, recei- ved assurances from Coun. Clark Mason (Ajax), com- mittee chairman, that a full report will be made to council prior to the meet- ings. In expanding his answer, Coun. Mason said the pur;, pose of the two summits are to glean information from the ministers. What will be sought, he added, will be an attempt to understand the philosophy of the two projects; learn what work has been done; and, what the future plans for each will be. DISMISSED Coun. Mason dismissed a suggestion from Coun. Jim that. Potticary (Oshawa) Durham take a stand on the project and "put it right on the table." Another Oshawa council- lor, Keith Ross, told council the meetings would culmi- nate towards an eventually- passed = recommendation from the committee. It calls for the council to set "'as a policy," that fede- ral or provincial projects planned within the region "be thoroughly discussed Epsom Our aeepest sympathy to Mrs. E.

Coun. Mike . Breaugh (Oshawa), a planning com- mittee member, saw the meetings as having a two-' fold purpose. They would establish to the other levels of government that a 1,000 sq. mile region does exist, he said. "We have to be recognized in this arena' of political bodies, he added. INDICATORS Coun. Breaugh also felt the committee might detect some "indicators" from the ministers as to what will "really" happen with the proposed developments. Walter Beath, regional chairman, interjected at this point in the discussion to ask councillors if they had, or wished to, avail themselves of his office to add 'some clout" to their quiries. Coun. Alex Robertson (Pickering) said the planned meetings will provide facts for an eventual Durham stand on the projects. The committee, said Coun. Breaugh, is in the process of gathering information be- fore the meetings. News were supper guests Wednes- day evening with Mr. and Mrs. H. MacMillan of Green- bank. Mr. G. Jeffery visited his brother Kenneth of Parry Sound last week. Richard Benns of Ux- bridge visited his grand- parents Mr. and Mrs. A. Card and Robin Benns spent a few days with her friend Coleen Osler while their mother had a brief holiday at Brantford. W.I. Baked In A Pie Summary Day January 16 was quite successful with a large atten- dance. Each group delighted us with a poem or song about their course. The Chairlady gave a bright humourist intro- duction to the meeting. Many of us had not met our food specialist or Home Econo- mist and were pleased to welcome them. The guest speaker was a little late (or the meeting started a little early). The subject was "Cake Decorating" and seemed to be of interest to most of the ladies. We had decided to forgo the extra calories of lunch so we got home earlier than usual. The Greenbank ladies should receive a special word of thanks for their beautiful display of several kinds of pie, both savoury and sweet, and a plate of cream puffs, with a beauti- ful background of pictures of pie. All who received their folder of recipes will be forgetting to count the cal- ories as they make these delicious pies. HA.
