The Combines have been receiving strong support from- the merchants in Bowmanville an-d Orono and it is hoped that their Friday night trade wi1l not be hindered. The prices for the Trenton scries will remain the samne as the regular season scale but if the Combines should move into the Ontario semi-finals and finals the dmission will be in- creased to $ 1.00 for aduits. This is neccssary since 15 percent of the gate goes to the O.H.A. and the players will t>e compensated for any time off work, as weil as increased transportation costs. Commerce, the dinner was of inestimable value in showir1g appreciation of Johnson anI Johnson's décision ta locate a sizeable and creditabie pati Bowmanviile.

" The most fantastie thing 1 have ever heard," was Joe O'Neil's opinion of the accusa- tions made by Coun. John Brough. At a recent Bowman- ville Town Couiicil meeting Coun. Brough levelled severe eriticism of the manner in which the Bowmanvjlle Meim- orial Hospital Board was award- ing contracts without first caîl- ing tenders. Speaking at the regular meet- ing of the Hospital Board on Wednesday of last wcek, Mr. O'Neil, ehairman of the pro- perty eommittee, stated that the facts as expressed in Tle Statesman were erboneous and distorting. "I thought for a moment I was reading 'Flash' ", Mr. O'Neil said and feit that the ratepayers of Darlington, Clarke, Newcastle and Bow- manville shoLuld be given the truc facts. No $4,000 Contract 'There neyer has been the $4,000 heating contract that took such a prominent part iii the report", hie said and weiit on to explaîn that his commit- tee was authorized to spcnd up to $4,000. "The board has rn overali contract," lhe said, "be- cause it can save about $200 »y purchasing ail necessary pum ps, motors, valves, pipes, etc., on a regular formi that is accep'(va by the Government in lieu of Sales Tax." "The board bases its spend- îngs on the idea that the man fromn Darlington and Clarke is an owner of the hospital in the same way as the man fromn our front street and as such lie must be given the best value for his moncy." Minimum Expenses In continuing Mr. O'Neil stat- cd that hospital expenditures Church St. Residents Object to Car Lot To Open There Soon Ail the ratepayer-, in the West Church St. area are objecting to a used car lot that is- to be established there. The Bow- manville Planning Board re- eeived a signed petition last Wednesday night objccting to this business owned by A.rt Stackaruk at 194-196 Church St.6 The board tuirned the petition down as the lot is in a Com- mercial Zone which permits used car lots. Chairman of the Board, L. C. Mason, felt that ta change the zoning wauld be not; feasible or proper as it .would be directed against an individual and would be dis- criminatory. Mayor Nelson E. Osborne felt that he had to go along with board's decision but eautioned Mr. Stackaruk to kcep a clean place of business. This area has been in the Commercial Zone ever since the ineeption of the By-law with no prior dbjection. Another New Business Another business likely to start in the near future will he a Petrofina Service Station on the north west corner of Libertv St. and the Baseline. The oit comnpany requestcd the board's permission to buy two lots north of the baseline so that they would have adequate space. As the southern lot is preseot] iy commercial the board will recammend that, the other lot also be chaoged to this same des igna tion. Short Frontages Mvr. J. B. Yeoman appeared hefore the board seeking per- mission to build on his lot on Victoria St. The lot has only a 46 foot frontage but sufficient square footage. The board gave Mr. Yeoman's permission to go ahead providing he made ar- rangements to have the town sewer service brought into his house. The minimum frontage required is 50 feet. Mr. Maurice Crook ham a lot he wishes to seli facing Lamb*% Lane. Again in the frontage was flot sufficient but as thert% was enough square footage he was also granted permission te sell. To Change Buildingr The owner of the lot and building on corner of Brown and Queen Sts., John Maguire, sought a building permit. He wishes ta change the present two-storey building into a sin- gle storey dwelling or store. The board waived the property area restrictions providing Mr. Magu ire complied with the min- imum arca for the building. The by-law caîls for R min*'- mum of 750 square feet for a one-storey residential building. Aoke Zone Change A letter from Mrs. Ida A. Fice asking ta have the aiea around Trimble's Store at King and Liberty Sts. changed from Residential ta Commercial was received. The board decided le give this rcquest consideration at the lime that other changes are made to the by-law. A î'equcst was rcccived froin Downhamn Nursery to put sew- ers up their sub-division. The board fclt that their permis- sion was -needed to go ahead with Ibis construction. Several other smali items or business were dcalt with by the board hcfoe i~djuiirnment.
