R. 3, Bowmanville, in last week's "Bits and Pieces", will be interesfed ta learn that a farmer has taken their hound dog troubles off their hands.

The six paintings hanging in the Bowmanville Public Libra- ry which were recently chosen ta appear in a dispiay in Me- Laughlin Library, Oshawa, are attracting much attention from. our library patrons.

Breslin, is achieving tremen- dous recognition as a television actor with the Canadian Broad- casting Corporation. Recently, he bas appeared in several pr)- ductions, as well as taking part in commercials.. His hardest part to date was played last Sunday afternoon when he waq one of the children in a reli- gious play over C.B.L.T. The production portrayed "What is Judaism?" and Dàvid enacted his part with conviction and naturalness. Our sincere con- gratulations f0 David and best wishes for' a great future in television. His older brother Richard bas also been takingc prominent assignments with the C.B.C. so it looks as though the younger Breslin boys are cut- ting a great niche for themselves in the arts.

New Park Below Vans fone's Miii As, Winter Work* Pro ject In submitting its report and resultant 'recommendations ta Town Council at its December meeting on Monday the Park Committee explàined that the delay hiad resulted froma numer- ous diXficulties it had encoun- tered in establishing the own- ership of various parcels of land lying to the. south of No. 2 Highway (King Street) in the valley of Bowmanville Creelk. In fact, the ownership of sev- eral small sites is stili in doubt. However, the town's titie to some sixteen acres has been definitely establishied so that a programn of work can now be undertaken. The committee's major recom- mendations are:- 1.) To provide winter employ- ment and to take maximum ad- vantage of the 75 percent sub- sidy on, labour costs available from *te federal and provincial governments, make an imme- diate start on removing under- brush and dead and damaged remove the bell'from the li- brary building because the wooden structure holding it had become hazardous. He also asked for and received author- ity to buy blinds for the offices in the town hall. Councillor Ivan Hobbs, chair- man of the fire committee, re- ported that $135 should be paid to the firemen for their 50 per- cent share of $270.00 received for out of town fires. He alsa stated that when the new ire signal systemn was installed the maintenance man had removed an old bell from the tower that had been unused for more than 30 years.- Time ndy for headache or upset Christmos excitenient. 68 C trees.

Obtain a survey o! the entire area !rom the highway bridge ta the southern bound- ary of the park site and com- mission a qualifîed park archi- tect ta prepare a long-terma plan o! park development, together with detailed plans for those areas and facilities thut are ta receive immediate attention. (3.) Appoint a committee With clearly defined authority and terms o! reference ta carry out whatever plan may be decide-d upon. lIn submitting the foregoing recommendations, the ý commit- tee made these observation:- (1.) The aniy present aes ta the park area is via Clinton Street (The narrow road run- [ning south fromi the west end o! the higbway bridge). The committee does flot believè this can be made ifltQ a suitable or safe park road, because o! poor visibilify and the speed of traf- f ic on the highway. Accarding- ly, the park architect wîhl be asked ta suggest one or two more suitable park entrances. (2.) Before the long-term plan o! park deveiopment is es- tabiished, the architecf should consult wifh aIl intérested or- ganizations and municipal agen- cies s0 that bis plan wili pro- vide for the eventual provision o! those facilifies most needed and desired by the citizens o! Bowm anvilie. In fhis connection if is ob- served that the 1957 "Munici- pal Affairs Survey" o! the Bow- manville Chamber o! Commerce showed a marked demand for a scenic. part with swimming and wading facilities for young- sters, picnic tables, barbecue pifs and fireplaces. There is also a strong demand for cer- tain sports facilities, and the High School is on record as needing a rugby field and run- ning track. The committee's report and recommendations were adopted by Town Council, and the com- mittee was re-appointed ta car- ry on with the project. Com- mittee members are Reeve- elect W. D. Higgon; Chairman, A. A. H. Strike; Councillor A. H. Sturrock, Ross Stevens. Claude Kilmer, Murray Larmner, and Ken Morris, -Secretary.
