Kiwanis Sponsor Calf Club Among 4-H Aldershot business and professional men's interest in agriculture has been again demonstrated by the Kiwanis Club which again is sponsoring a highly successful Calf Club among 4-H members. In recognition of this assistance the Binbrook Agricultural Society recently presented an Agricultural Society recently presented an "Agricultural Service Diploma" for meritorious service to agriculture to Leslie C. George of International Harvester, who is a Past President of the Kiwanis Club, Hamilton East, and 1956 Chairman of the Agricultural Committee. Left to Right: Gordon Berry, I.P.P., Binbrook Agr.

George, Chairman, Agricultural Committee, Kiwanis Club, Hamilton East Two Committees Urge Town Accept New Pool Acceptance of the offer of Aldershot Kiwanis Club to finance a $20,000 public swimming pool for Kiwanis Park, Townsend Avenue will be recommended to town council by both the recreation and parks and the finance committees. Cost of operating the pool was estimated by the recreation committee at about $4,100 net annually. Members of the finance committee felt the recreation budget would provide this sum, especially, said Councilor Fred Sinclair, if the proposed pool at Mountain Gardens is shelved this year. "They'll have to wake up in Mountain Gardens." said Councilor Ted Smith, "and get themselves a service club." Aldershot Kiwanis propose to raise the $20,000 cost of a 35 by 70-foot pool mostly by public subscription in the neighborhood to be served by the facility. The campaign will be opened almost immediately. The club hopes to have the proposed new pool in full operation by June of this year. It will be located in the southerly section of the park near dressing rooms being installed in connection with the new outdoor artificial ice rinks there. ALDERSHOT Kiwanis and Police worked close together in a bicycle safety programme for school children which started last week at Glenview School. Above: Dr. W.

Bell, principal of the school. Below: Proud bike-owners patiently waiting in sun. May 8, 1957
