?HUSDAY, MAY Sth, 1958 TWZ CAXADIAN STATESMAIT, BOWMvANVILLE. ONTARIO PArLr Evmt tcordoi w Highway1 I An editorial appearing in the April 24th issue of the Statesman entitled "Orono May Get Some Action" brought us ta the conclusion Newcastle must be using the wrong meth*ds ta get action on a similar situation. The portion of the editorial we refer ta reads as follows: "One controversial quesion on which Major Foote assured us some action could be expected wvas the rather hazardous entrances ta the Village of Orono. Apparently, since Highwav 115 'was completed, the abrupt cut-offs at bath the south and north end of Orono have resulted in a traffic hazard. Major Foote stated that he has been in direct contact with the Minister of Highways on several occasions in an effort to hav ethis situation corrected and that recently the Minister assured hlm he would look into the matter. A team of experts may be expected ta visit the area in the near f uture ta analyze the entire picture and prepare remedies". Now, it just sa happens that the eut- off from this same Highway leading to N~ewcastle is also abrupt and besides, has no widening of the highway at this point, as, the case of the Orono entrances. The 115 Cut -Off Newcastle entrance has been the scene of numerous accidents since the highway was completed, one of which resulted in a double fatality. This matter was discuss- ed at a public meeting held in the New- castle Community Hall last summer when some three or four Highways Department Engineers were in attendance and the people of Newcastle xvere assured* this intersection would be visited by experts and remedies carried out if reported necessary. That is the last anyone has heard of this matter and the only change which has been made is, a large signboard has *been erected pointing the direction ta Newcastle. We eertainly hope Major Foate has been able ta canvince the Department that changes are necessary.at Orono and that the changes are made at those dangeraus intersections soan. It would, however. be rather a ridiculous mave on the part of the Department ta make the suggested changes at Orono without, at the same time, making similar changes at "Trickey's Corners", the Newcastle eut-off, whieh was left in worse condition and has already been the seene of two fatalities.

According ta Keith Aiken, chairman of the committee in charge, the puojeet is receiving very good response ta date and he is hopeful of having a dis- play of ground and aerial fire- works which should entertain the kiddies, and adults, who znay attend for a period of ane to two hours, if proceeds con- Is YOVU EAVESTROUGH Ready for SPRING CALL GGULD HEATING NEWCASTLE 4331 tinue ta corne in atthe cpuesent e rate.
