All flags will be flown from a 12 foot high pole and will be placed in conspicuous places on the beach. The new system, in- itiated this summer for the first To accommodate pupils liv- ing on the west side of the creek valley, a footbridge will be erected north of the con- struction site until the new bridge is finished.

J. Phillips Public School, ac- companied by two adults have just completed an unforgettable eight-day canoe trip which took them from Gamebridge on Lake Simcoe to Rice Lake. The boys, all44 years of age, were accompanied by Bernard Lewis, director of the Children's Aid Society for Ontario County and the City of Oshawa and _ Douglas Wilson, an Oshawa real- tor.

To Study Problem Of Road Transport By ALBERT V. WALKER MPP, Oshawa Riding Recent statistics issued by the Department of Highways and the Department of Trans- port provide some indication for the headaches which citi- zens of this riding encounter each summer weekend as they attempt to travel to cottages for a few hours of relaxation from the pressures of every day living. Some idea'of the extent of vehicular traffic in Ontario to- day can be gained from. the Statistic that, in the short space of 10 years, travel by all classes of motor vehicles increased by 50 per cent from 10 billion to over 20 billion miles. During the past year vehicle registra- tions rose by 90,000 to a new high of 24% million vehicles. In the last 10-year period the num- ber of licensed drivers increas- ed by nearly one million. The fantastic increase in motor ve- hicle registrations means that to accommodate those who drive, highways must be mod- ern in every respect. Ontario today has more four-lane high- ways than any other province in Canada and this highway pro- gram is continuing to expand. In the past year total expendi- tures on roads and streets in- creased by more than 110 per cent, and over the next 20 years present expenditures will have to be increased very considerably to keep pace with expansion. Last year grants to :|municipalities to aid in their road building programs amount- ed to one hundred million dol- lars. Even with these ever-in- Manor Addition Gets Approval Construction on the Hillsdale Manor 100-bed addition cannot start until written approval is received from the Ontario Muni- cipal Board for the city to levy for an extra $50,000 in 1965. Costs went about $75,000 above estimates and the city, which will pay one-half the total cost, ; |found itself short. The city put away $240,000 over the last two and one-half years. Actual construction cost is $485,000; the winning bid~ was by Fidelity Construction of Osh- awa, Architect's fee and fur-| nishings pushed the cost up an- ' Jother $70,000, ISCOVERER EXAMINE DUGOUT CANOE FIND With estimated cost cuts there was still another $23,000 to be found and the city applied some time ago for permission to levy for the difference. It is understood that verbal approval has been given by the OMB. creasing costs it is interesting to note that, up to the present at least, here in Ontario we 'are one of the few jurisdictions in the world which has completely toll free highways and express- ways. One of the most significant changes in the postwar living pattern of our people had oc- curred in those areas which fringe on eur cities. The fan- tastic growth of our cities in an outward direction has caus- ed a revolution in our daily habits. Ontario is a classic ex- ample of what has happened in the wake of the population ex- plosion. Within the confines of the Golden Horseshoe, Oshawa on the east and Hamilton on the West, we have a population of more than two million persons. It is estimated that by 1975 this figure will have been boosted by one million and better than 50 per cent will live outside the Metropolitan Toronto area. The march of the cities into the suburbs has been accom- panied by the growing problem of how to transport masses of people to and from the urban core. 'It is against this background of a multitude of problems that threatens to strangle the econ- omy of the Ontario heartland, that the government has taken specific steps and has establish- ed the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Transportation Commit- tee. The committee will study and report on all over-all trans- portation policy for Metro To- ronto and surrounding munici- palities, Extensive surveys will be carried out on all phases of this important problem and the possibility of establishing com- muter or rapid transit service will be studied. Transportation and highway sytems are an important fac- tor in the development of On- tario and we must make cer- tain that they are modern and sufficient to meet the demands of today's growing population. K Confirms Mikoyan Presidency MOSCOW (AP)--On the ree- ommendation of Premier Khrushchev, Leonid I, Brezh- nev was relieved today of his post as Soviet president and Anastas I. Mikoyan was elected to succeed him. Khrushchev explained to a meeting of the Supreme Soviet (parliament) that Brezhnev is needed for full-time work in the Communist party.
