The board acted in an advisory ca- pacity, and the work of drawing up the by-law will be undertaken by the council. It was agreed that the town should be divided into zones, for the purpose of building restric- tions. Zones will be residential, commercial, industrial. "Multiple dwellings," or apartment-houses and duplexes, will be restricted to certain sections, such as Reynolds Street. Other d S, such as the Brantwood survey, Dundas street north of Sumner, and a section south of Robinson street to the lake, will be restricted to the better type of single dwel- lings. The northern part of the town. from a line several hundred feet south of the railway tracks to the Queen Elizabeth highway, on both sides of the river, will be designated an industrial area, as will a section south of the Lakeshore highway between Forsyth and Chisholm Streets. a S. E. Trafalgar Property Owners Advise College Check Twp. Bylaw Jack Graydon, secretary, told Tuesday night's meeting of the South East Trafalgar Property Owners' Association, that the executive had written to the Eastern Pentecostal Bible Col- lege with reference to its pro- posed purchase of Ennisclare. "The Bible College was advised to secure legal advice concerning the restrictive by-law. We also advised the college to contact all the adjacent property owners," he reported. A. Birge and Chris Arm- strong stated they were opposed to Ennisclare being put to such use. Steward Stratton; chairman, left the chair, so no motion was possible, but a list was circulated for those opposing the establish- ment of the Bible college to sign Over forty signatures were ob- tained. A meeting of the lake- shore residents affected was call- ed for Tuesday night to go fur- ther into the matter. With the new members enrolled at the meeting, membership in the association now stands at over 140. At the close of the meeting refreshments were ser- ved. Professor Weall, 0.A.C. gave an interesting amusing chalk talk Gardening. The Sheridan orchestra rendered mus- ical numbers. and on Snow | Blow! Go! One of the latest things in snow-clearing equipment was used Tuesday to remove the pil- ed up snow on Colborne Street. The device, used in Oakville for the first time, Is known as a blower. It consists of a truck, to which is attached a large steel bin, in front of the truck and lev- el with the road surface. As the truck is driven forward the deep snow is forced into the bin, where a large rotating fan throws it up- ward through a duct and into a truck which hauls it away. The outfit is owned by an Acton man. Town Foreman Ed, Fitzsimmons expressed himself as very pleas- ed with its effectiveness as a snow-cleaner. Fire Chief Presents Life Member Awards Celebration of the Third an- nual ladies' night of the Oakville Fire Brigade taxed the seating capacity of Legion Hall Friday night. Chief Fred Shaw welcom- ed the guests, which included all members of council and their wives, and a full turnout of by gade members and their ladies. In proposing the health to the ladies, Captain Larry Wilson re- minded his audience that it was the wives who When the siren goes in the middle of 'the night, help us on with our rubber boots and I therefore think all firemen present should rise and drink the toast with gratitude to the ladies who help 'them much." Mrs. Arthur Tuck res ponded on behalf of the ladies. She felt the annual ladies' night was a fine thing as it was the opportunity for all the organiza- tion to meet each other, "While all you husbands are able to got together once a month." coats. 50 Carl Davis acted as chairman of the party and Introduced the local talent entertainment which consisted of Jill and Judy Brown, Marge Collett, Violet Rogers and Gloria Rollinson and Earl Smith, who ably M.C.'d the show, and revealed a wide variety of per- sonal talent, Mrs. Smith accom- panied the artists on the piano, Every lady received two delicately colored figurines as a favor, and dancing concluded the party.

In- termediate "A" group playoff by a 10-3 score at Milton Monday night. Peer Absent Starting minus the services of starry Coach Bert Peer, bedded down with flu, Lakies grabbed an early lead after three minutes of play as Davison rifled home a pass from Watson. Fox tied it up a minute later, however, and Currie sent Milton ahead soon after the second stanza got un- der way, Patterson got this one back at the halfway mark on a play set up by Speck--and then the Milton representatives elected to play it the rough way. While their tactics were highly quest- ionable from a sporting view- point, the assault--and the word is used advisedly--certainly paid scoring dividends for a team that had evidently decided to lay the butt end right on the line, Any line within swinging dis- tance, that is! Human Ricochets Before long, it was a case of Lakeshores Nmping to the dres- sing room for repairs and Milton players heading for the sin bin. Unfortunately from the local viewpoint, the penalty parade did not offset the medical march, however, In quick succession, four La- kies registered on the first aid list. A butt end that sent "Giggs" Watson crashing off the boards ended in a painful hip injury that ended that worthy's usefulness for the evening. A cross check cut Keith Speck's Hp and ripped his dental rbidgework right out of his mouth. George Kennedy hurtled five feet through the air before crashing to the ice after being charged from the side, a snide wallop that slowed George to a walk from that point on. And Bill Currie after retiring mom- entarily for patchwork on a slashed lip, had only been back in the fray two minutes when he was knocked into a goal post and suffered a shoulder injury that had him en route to hospital in short order. Following and during this thor- ough sofetning up process, the winners rained rubber at Gary Legear, and the latter half of the tilt was all Milton as the as- tounded locally sought vainly to untrack themselves, Only other Oakville score came midway through the final period when Speck, reminiscently clenching his teeth, drilled In a pas: Salvisberg.
