Mr. Ross referred to the recommendation of the Oshawa Centennial Com- mittee which chose the grand- stand out of 36 proposals sub- mitted, "The Alexandra Park area is |\far too crowded," Mr. Ross Stated, "with hospital and school parking. Realistic thought has to be given to this, "The Kinsmen's stadium has very little use," Mr. Ross con- tinued, "I am not in favor of a grandstand, especially at Alex; andra Park." ' Mr. Ross said that. some were against a swimming. pool which would be constructed at the Civic Auditorium site because of the distance from downtown. "If they can get out to the shopping centre," he stated, |"'they can get out a little fur- |ther to the civic auditorium. "Council will recommend that the issue be thrown to the people," Mr, Ross continued, "'that is the easiest way to do it when coming up for elec- tion." | William Rutherford, a dele- gate from Local 222, United | Auto Workers, said: '"There is a |need for a couple more swim- ming pools in Oshawa.

"No matter what project is decided upon," he said, "noses are going. to be put out of |joint. There is a pressume group |which is all for the pool," Mr. Pilkey stated. "I am convinced that there will be a swimming pool at the Civic Auditorium, before 1967," Mr. Pilkey said, "and it will be a long time before the citizens of Oshawa will pay $180,000 for grandstand or an arts theatre."
