It was completed here heen 4 by a 24-year-old taxi driver, Phil Wilson of 172 Liberty street forth, Bowmanville. He finished the trek from To- ronto City Hall to Bowman- ville's town hall in 12 hours, 43 minutes, less than one hour over the world record. Led into town by the scream- ing of a police siren and the honking of horns, Wilson strode up to the town hall steps to re- ceive congratulations from Mayor Ivan Hobbs and other civic dignitaries. Wilson and a companion, 23- year-old Ian Cruikshank of 111 King street east, Bowmanville, also a taxi driver, began the walk at 4 a.m. Monday. Cruickshank bowed out 23 miles later with stomach cramps. But Wilson kept steam- ing along in the slush and snow, ly, Believed to be the first to try the walk in Canada are two Oshawa Times reporters, Ber- nard Hunt, 20, and Allan Bailey, 24, Hunt walked 27 miles and Bailey carried his 245-pound frame 20 miles before a leg cramp forced him to quit. Hunt had to stop' because of the freez- ing temperatures. It was eight below, zero when they tried it. Wilson commented after he finished that he might have fin- ished in better time if he had tried the walk by himself. Jokingly, someone mentioned to him how he would like to turn around and walk back to Toronto.

This historical route, built by General Brock's soldiers when there was no battle to occupy their time, will slice in half the ancient community of Brougham. Ontario county road engineer R. E. Sims pronounced this sen- tence on the small community this week. Last year, rows of beautiful trees were chopped down for road widening and the country atmosphere south of the golf course was lost for all time. |REQUEST BYPASS | Now the picturesque (though accident-prone) intersection of Brock road and Highway 7 will be changed to allow for straight-' Members of town - council It stated, "We expect that of a busingss certain "In our type is always "We feel with this move that in the midst of our regulated, one - track - minded system of road construction that elimin- ates all vestige of quaint eccen- tricity.
