There was cansiderable dis- cussion an several perrenial prablems such as Dag Contrai, revision of the Building By- law, Weed Contrai, Pediars' J'- censes, community planning etc., which would take columns of type ta report, in addition ta the many civic appaintments which appear elsewhere on this page. Echoes of 401 Echoes of the valiant fight Put up by the village last vear ta obtain adequate access across the proposed Highway 401 were heard when E. Rich- ard Lovekin, counsel for the village at the Municipal Board Hearing in August appeared before council ta state that every legal argument against the closing of ail but one of the village streets running north and south in the village, had been exhausted and that he could do nothîng further in a legal way. He suggested however that personal presentation .to the minister of a carefully prepar- ed alternative plan by a dele- gation from the cauncil might have some result, and he would be pleased ta hejp in any way he could *if such a Plan was decided upon by council. Due ta the amaunt of business ta be transacted, however, couni- cil did flot get around ta dis- cussing this matter. Reereation Assn. Resigns Because af unlair criticism af their wark, members af the recreation association each had resignations submitted ta the councîl though nathing was said in the resignations ta re- veal wha was criticising or what the criticism. was about, and there was littie discussion of the matter by members af council. The resignations were received and filed pending the outcame af a joint meeting with the associatian and the council. Grants af $5.00 each were made ta the Sick Chiidren's Hospital, the Canadian National Institute for the Blind and the St. John Ambulance Corps. Village Planning As a first step in the direc- tion of the formation of a Plan- ning Board for the village, the clerk was autharized ta write ta Danovan and Assaciates asking them ta give council an estimate on the cost af prepar- ing a praper map af the village. Also with the thought af vil- lage planning in mind council decided ta cail a meeting af ail farmers within the limits af the village ta discuss the fur-' ther development o! the vil- lage. Arrangements will be made with Mr. Don Kingdon, Manager af the Lake Ontario Deveiopment Association ta b present and address this me- ing and answer questions on.1 Planning and Development. The clerk was instructed ta write each owner af farm praperty in the village inviting him tai attend this meeting. %oniuareru mIss!ng iun Can't Afford Skates Town Citizens Con HeIp Despite the poor weather for local skating enthusiasts this winter, thère have naw been a few days when ice has been available, but . . . accarding ta Perey Hare, Chairmnan af the Health and Welfare Commnittee af the Newcastle Lions Club there are a number af children in this cammunity, children af needy familles, who are unable ta take advantage of what ice there is because their parents are unable to buy skates for them. Mr. Hare feels that there is no need for these children ta be missing out an this fun as there must be a great many used skates around the village which are no longer of any value ta their owners as growing children don't use the same skates toa long. He bas suggested that if any persan having used child- ren's skates which are not need- ed any mare wiil contact Mr. Hare, or any member af the Lions Club, they wili be passed an ta some needy child wha wil be most gratelul ta the donor. It is feit that this problem may easily be soived in this way without any expense ta anyane and the donor may be content that some other chiid is being made happy by the gift af a pair o! skates which are no langer af any value ta the present awner.

There was ice in the arena on Saturday marning and two Little N.H.L. games were played.. In the first game the Torches and Canadiens played ta a 2-ail tie with Bill Scott and Johin Cunningham getting the markers for the Torches while Joe Smith slipped it past thel Torches' goalie twice for the Canadiens. In the second game the Horn- ets defeated the Rackets by a score af 5 ta 3. Harry Kupery was the big stick for the Hornets scoring four of their five goals with Steve Barchard scaring one. Don Calwill scared twa goals for the Rackets with Gearge Hendry gettîng the tIjird mark- er. Ai! Alldread was the only penalized player for the Harn- ets, receiving a two-minute caol- ing off period for cross checking. For the Rockets Don Colwill was given twa minutes for boarding, while Dick Biersteker sat it out twa minutes for slash- ing. Ice permitting, these teams will be fighting it out every Wednesday fram, 6 ta 8 p.m. and every Saturday marning fromn 9 ta 12 which gives ail interested an opportunity ta view future Canadian hockey players in the making.

Yours Sincerely, Irwin Colwill, President, Durham Growers' Co-operative The Newcastle Volunteer Fire Department answered its first twa alarms of 1958 within less than 24 hours this week. The first cali came shortly before naon on Monday from the home of P. C. Hart-Maxwell on the east boundary of the village where children playing with matches had started a lire which threatened the destruction af a barn owned by Reginald Le- Gresley. Prompt action by the niem- bers af the department ex- tinguished this blaze before any extensive damage resulted ta the building. The second alarm sounded at 4:11 a.m. Tuesday, came from the home af Gardon Garrod Jr. SHOTS Mr. George James, Editor Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvilie, Ont. Dear Sir:- I would like to take this op- portunity ta reply ta your arti- cle in last week's paper "U.S. Apples flood Canadian markets -fili up Ontario Storages". Your statement re several carloads of American apples stared at Newcastle is absolute- ly false. On Sept. l4th, 739 bushels of New York appies came in ta aur storage, for short term oniy. That is, not mare than twa months. Twelve days later, Sept. 26, anly 239 bushels af this sbipment remained in star- age. Anyone with knowledge of apple growing will realize that this was at a tîme when the starage was practically empty, and did not interfere with anyane locally storîng ap- pIes. With a total af 72,000 bus- hels of apples in aur Starage this year, you will note that this U.S. shipment - was just over one percent af the total. Every year, aur manager, Howard Gibson, contacts' aur sharehalders either by letter or in persan, ta ascertain the amaunt af storage required by each. We ask for a definite an- swer by early September. You can readily understand the importance of this, be- cause in the event the storage did not have sulficient incarne ta pay interest, mortgage and aperatian etc., these same sharehoiders could be called on ta put up sufficient money ta caver the loss caused by lack af starage revenue. Unfortunately, there may be some sharehold- ers who do nat realize the im- partance of definitely stating their requirements; hoping ta dispase af their crop during picking season. It would be impassible for this starage ta successfully aperate without delinite commitments.

Transportation is no prob- lem as these states are dloser than any apple growing area af Canada. 4. In 1957, New York State had five million bnshels above a normal crop.
