ROY N CHOLS MOTORS LTD. iour Chevrolet - Oldsmobile Dealer BOWMANVILLE Our Friendly Salesmen . Ted Miler Harold Michelson Doug Ferguson COURTICE "Ace" Richards wwwwwwwwwwwwwww Unusual Contest at Roy Nichols Motors the Planning Board over this matter, should be commended for his action. Regional Government is being established in the region to prevent just this type of shoddy develop- ment and wilful waste of agricultural land. The cost of services required by the addition of 4,000 to 5,000 people being dumped into Clarke Township will have to be shared by existing residents, who are essent- ially rural dwellers. Subdi- visions attract city people who before long will have Clarke Township paved from one end to the other. The people of Clarke would be well advised to remember the names of the two presently elected offic- ials, who voted against the Planning Board recomm- endations at the upcoming elections. If they are re- turned to office Clarke township will surely be- come a concrete jungle within the next decade. Local business men who support subdivision devel- opment in Clarke should pay a visit to the Brampton area, and then estimate how long they can survive the slick merchandising techniques of the large chains that operate out of shopping plazas. Shopping centres inevitably follow subdivisions which are in turn followed by high rise apartment buildings. If Durham County is to remain rural, development must be restricted to single homes on lots of at least 2 acres, so that they can have their own water source and sewage disposal system. Bowmanville and Orono have both opened the door to subdivision devel- opment. They will rue the day they made these decis- ions unless a halt can be placed on all subdivision development. In a free enterprise society it is difficult to justify placing restrictions on the sale of land, but if the best agricultural land in the province is to be saved for the future, some restric- tions are necessary. Ev- eryone has a little larceny in their soul and the temptation to make a "fast buck" is present in all of us. However, at stake in this issue is the life style and rural character of Durham County. The action of Clarke township officials is repre- hensible because they know that come January 1974 sanctioning this type of development will not be tolerated by Regional Gov- ernment. Mr. W. Beath, as future Chairman of Durham Reg- ional Government, should Orono Lawyer-Injured In Car-Truck Collision Orono lawyer, Wm. Kay Lycett suffered internal injur- ies, in a car accident shortly after midnight, on Friday, September 21st. Lycett's 1972 Corvette sus- tained $3,000 damage when it collided with the rear-end of a dump truck on Taunton Road, just east of the Clarke-Dar- linton line. The truck had just pulled out of a driveway and Lycett, who was eastbound on Tautâton Road, came over th move to overrule this decision by informing the principles concerned that work on both development sites will be halted in January. Yours very truly, John W Davidson.

AL m", Councillor Lawrence Mason (right) holds the two tickets he pulled in the contest sponsored by Roy Nichols Motors to mark the unveiling of their 1974 cars. It may sound a little incredible but Francis Williams of 35 Prince Street won the first prize for the second year in a row. According to Nichols salesman Ted Miller Williams commented jokingly that he won the dishes last year and this year he wanted the luggage - which is exactly what he got. Fred Owen, President of the Chev-Olds dealership, displays the beautiful suitcase which will be awarded to Williams. The second prize of a set of dishes went to Mrs. V. Pickard of 127 West Beach Road. To add to the irony, Mrs. Pickard works at Rickaby's, where the dishes were purchased. Just for fun, Fred Owen decided to pull a third ticket out of the box. . . Garnet Rickard. They sure have strange contests over at Nichols.
