Outlined in the dimensions of time, the story of Christmas is one of the past, of the present and the future. It is the lineage of God and lineage of man," Kiwan- ian Lowell told his fellow members 'We ask, 'why did God do this?' Thinking. about this our minds will lead us away from material things to spirit ual values and here we find a simple answer.

Kennedy, city parks, proper- ity and recreation commission- er. The study will be discussed by city council early next year. Ald. Hayward Murdoch, chair- man of council's parks, property jand recreation committee, dis- itributed copies of the study to council on Monday Taking into account the ade- quacy and usage of existing fa- cilities Mr Kennedy listed seven 'current' needs --sports areas specifically de- lsignated for soccer, rugby and Canadian football 'COURTS NEEDED' --a recreation activities and administrative centre adjoining the Centennial swimming pool at the Civic Auditorium. (This has been approved by council); --hard surface tennis courts; floodlit softball areas; 'walk-to' outdoor swimming pools, (an uncomplicated type of pool located close to the peo- ple) --'passive recreation'. p ark areas (for adults and older citi- zens, equipped with tables and benches, horseshoe, shuffleboard and other games) Functionally developed play- --a covering for the North Oshawa artificial ice rink to re- duce maintenance and extend the season; | ---a further covered artifical jice area located in a south- | easterly section of the commun- lity. | Mr. Kennedy said he made jno mention in the report of |"gymnasia" as adequate facili- ities exist within the school sys- tem, "Full and proper community use of existing tax-supported gymnasia could add much to municipal programming and services in many, many areas," he said. "It would be very un- sound financing, in our opinion, to duplicate existing facilities that are, most certainly, not be- ing fully utilized.' Mr. Kennedy, in outlining an "educated assumption" of needs that will exist in 10 years, ree ferred to certain social, envir- fonmental and economical cir- cumstances, including longer life-span, shorter work week and shorter work-life, an increase in apartment living, greater inter- est in "personal participation" activities and a greater empha- jsis on the constructive use of leisure time Suggested facilities for the next 10 years (estimated popula- tion, 95,000) included: ing to provide the good and|ground or play areas, ('we do FOUR PARKS sufficient food for the animals in his charge.
