i "pest clerk that any councillor BROUGHAM -- When quibbl- ing among councillors about en- a new clerk for Picker- Township took place, it was perhaps a good thing. Since his appointment on' Feb. 15, Doug- las J. Plitz, the new clerk, is could wish for. He regrets that the appointment was not unani- mous, but the disappointment} lessens as the interest in his new job increases. Ms. Plitz has lived 27 of his|tt 40 years in the Township of Pickering. Born to Gustav and Marie Plitz, of Austrian extrac- tion, on April 19, 1924, he was raised, with his three brothers and seven sisters on the farm of 'his parents in the south part of the township. All but three of this large family still reside in the township, and all, at one time or another, played a part ni the progressive souvenir busi- ness conducted on the farm premises of their late father. SERVED IN RCAF Mr, Plitz received his pri- mary education in the town- ship, and graduated from a four-year course at the Eastern High School. of Commerce. Night school training in busi- ness administration and public speaking at the University of Toronto, preceded his three-year stint in the RCAF during the lin the clerk's other pursuits of Nova Scotia, he served on the administrative staff. | Before a. to on township ll years ago, Mr. z was on the staff of Texaco in the sales division. Then treasurer of the township, he is completing the clerks and finance officer's course from Queen's University. The chief interests of the township clerk are his slim, fair-haired wife, Carol, and his seven-year-old daughter, Kelly, already absorbed, in second grade, in her favorite subject, He designed and built his at- tractive home, which sits on three acres of lawn and gar- den on Sandy Beach road. Photo- graphs of it and its occupants, together with an article titled "Home of the Week" occupied a full-page spread in the Toron- to Telegram a few years ago. On a lagoon leading to French- man's Bay, the site is perfect for this family's participation in sailing, and swimming in the pool they built themselves. Carol and Kelly are included skiing, riding and photography. Mr. Plitz' new position ap- peals to him because he likes "to grow with a municipality that has a great future'. "I'm pleased that I have an opportunity to serve the peo- ple," he said, 'and earnestly hope that it will be in the same splendid capacity as the former clerk, L. T. Johnston." war. Stationed at Greenwood, _ Mr. Johnston has resigned to BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE Decision Delayed In Driving Case BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- Judgment, on a charge of care- less driving against an Oshawa man, was reserved here Tues- day until March 23, by Magis- trate R. B. Baxter. William Hallett, 1096 Hortop road, was the driver of a truck which was involved in a -col- lision with a car driven by Mrs. Ken Hooper, Ontario street, Bowmanville, on Oct. 22. Mrs. Hooper's mother was killed in the accident, at the 'Hole in the Wall" underpass, just east of Newcastle. A witness to the accident, Ed- ward Semplonius, of Liberty street, Bowmanville, said he was going west on Highway 2 and saw the truck driven by Hallett, coming east down the other side of the hill. "T saw the car go through the/on s+ the time of the accident side of Sie toeenes thew as a safety precaution. there was going to be an acci- dent." Semplonius said what made him think there was going to be an accident was the truck swerving all over the road. Mrs. Hooper told the court she was travelling about 35 miles per hour and had just UCW Plans Prayer Day AUDLEY (TC) -- Plans for the World Day of Prayer, to be held at the Sunday afternoon service on March 7, were made at the meeting of the United Church Women held at the home of Mrs. C.

The members were served re- freshments at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. Waltham. The Ex- plorers held a skating party at the home of their counsellor. Mr. and Mrs. C. Clemence were hosts for the meeting of the Hi-C Group. Joyce Smith led the worship and presented the program on evangelism. She was assisted by Shirley and entered the subway when she saw the truck. "It seemed to head straight for us and then it hit us." Two other witnesses, Donald Lancaster and William Ford, said they saw the truck coming down the hill with its lights on and they pulled over to the side of the road to let the truck go through. Both men said they thought the car would get through and there would be no accident. Mr. Hallett said he was only 250 feet away from the entrance of the underpass when he saw 'the Hooper car which was about 600 feet from the entrance on the other side. Mr. Hallett, a driver for National Grocers Limited of Oshawa, at the time of the acci- dent, said his headlights were An 18-year-old Port Hope youth, who drove while his li- cence was under suspension, was fined $500 and costs or six months in jail. Jerry Leoen was also fined $50 and costs for care- less driving. The court was told a car driven by Leoen had been in- volved in an accident on the Seventh Concession of Clarke Township, a half mile from Highway 35. The car had cut in front of another vehicle driven by Ralph Norton and had been travelling at such a high speed it went out of control, went into the ditch and landed on its roof. Terence Kelly, who repre- sented the accused, said cars were Leoen's big trouble and asked the magistrate to do something to stop him.

Appointed at the same time as Mr. Plitz, Noth Marshall, 28, ipecaie the township's deputy clerk, Mr. Marshall served for the past year and one-half as assistant clerk to Mr. Johnston. Born on Christmas day, 1936, Mr. Marshall lived the first 12 years of his life in Toronto. Educated in 2 series of schools '-- Upper Canada College, Brown's Public School, Picker- ing Public School and St. An- drew's College, he graduated in 1956 from Pickering -- District High School. A course in book- keeping was taken at night school. He worked his way through as a junior automobile underwirter, purchasing agent, customs en- try driver, and the duties in- volved in the order department of The Pedlar People in Osh- awa. A sign on the Brock road, south of the third concession, "Marshall Fields", indicates the family home of Mr. Marshall. Next it, a substantial bungalow lot, is his home. Like Mr. Plitz, his outstand- ing interest is his wife, the for- mer Joyce Disney, pretty daughter of a well-known town- ship resident, Cecil Disney. Noel Clifford, 7, known as Clifford, and Nancy Catherine, 4, are his lively hobbies, too. Angus his prepossessing border collie pup, completes the family cir- cle. Besides taking pride in his family, and taking an intense in- terest in his home and grounds, Mr. Marshall is People's War- den in his church, St. George's Anglican, Pickering, and is Sun- day School instructor to a large group of boys. Mr. Marshall is happy with his promotion to Deputy Clerk, and its accompanying increase in salary, and is attacking with new vigor the Municipal Clerks and- Finance Officers Training Course, which he began last year. Ajax Council News Briefs Ajax Council was informed Monday night that its share of the 34-room addition to the Pickering District High School would come to about $300,000 over the next 20 years. Coun- cillor 0. G. Ashley objected to spending $117,000 on architect's fees alone on the addition. Councillor William LeGros said that each of the additional rooms would cost the same as the St. Andrew's" Gymnasium or $66,000. The provincial and federal governments will pay over half of the cost for the addition making the Pickering High School a composite school. AJAX HIGH The Pickering and District High School Board advised council that it wished to pur- chase a 14%4-acre site adjacent to the existing Ajax High School for expansion next year at a cost of $87,000. MUNICIPAL WORKS The Ajax Public School Board asked council to reserve $100,- 000 .in the Municipal Works Assistance Program for a six- room addition to the Lord Dur- ham School on Burcher road.
