2 Tht Canadian Statesnian, Bowsianville, Ociober 23, 1974 Day LCare Centre h '15 At present the Town of Newcastle bas two community run nursery schools but no day care centres. A grant propos- al, approved in principle by the Ontario Legislature last week, wiil soon change alI, that. A target date for 1975 bas been set by Durham region Day Care Services Co- ordinator Mrs. M. Brown, for a 45-place day care centre in Buwmanville. The Bowmanville location was given top priority on tbe Durham region grant re- quests. The province approv- ed 17 grants for a total of $2,400,000. As $15 million is the announced total expenditure planned for this program, Durham hopes to get at least two more centres in the next round of approvals. The intention of this provin- cial program is to "minimize regional disparities" in day care facilities across the province. Needs were assess- ed through public meetings and held throughout Durham region. Employers w.re also approached regarding their perception of the need. Anotb- er consideration, of course, was the projected growth figure for the various tom-, munities- On, these criteria,' Bowmanville was selected as the region's number one priority. 'the exact location bas not yet been isclosed as negotia- tiotis are still in progress. The gra nt wilI be spent on either construction or renovation costs. Mlayor Garnet fickard and Couni. lIan Hobbs sbowed Mrs. Brown several locations but n) indication has been given on whlcb one bas been choseii. The centre will accommno- date 45 childrün betw\een the ages of two and five for five days awè,,c. l'le staffofeight will likely~ incltide a supervis- or, an assistant~ supervisor, four qualified day care s pëe cialists, a nursry Tid aa bousekeeper-cook. This ser- vice wiIlI aIse be available on a hait' day basis for children enrolled in Kindergarten. ,Costs to parents for similar service this year are five dollars per day per child. Transporta tion, except in cases of speclal beed, is the responsibility of the parent. The other. centres xhere grânts have been requested are -Scugog, Brock, Nitby andû0shawai nthat order. Itis e-xrected thiat two4lmore grants will be fort conng. There are rumiors, however, that the province miay be miore inter- ested in the Oshawa location 'han the C'ariingtefl-Brock site. Oïshawa andi Whitby will get day care centres whether the province awards grants or not. Estimnates for their con- struction will be includèd in the 19 î75 soc i ai services capital budget if necessary according to Regional Social Services Corn ii siofie rDoug Johns. Gradua te Rebecca Lee Recently graduated as a Medical Laboratory Techno- logist in ceremonies beld at tht Toronto Institute of Medil cal Technology.

Allin got only 20 per cent of whaf would bave been considered a normal crop. This year, lie reports, that it is not a bumper trop, but a normal ont. With 80 per cent of tht trop now picked, Paul estimates there are qbout 10 days of picking lett. Pickers are mostly wumen from tht area. Theres no problern getting pickers, says Mn. Aluin. Ail tht trees are semi-dwarf and tan be picked from tht ground with tht use of eight foot fipoti ladders. To pitk tht very tops of some trees there is a hoist su that ont picker tan do aIl tht trees.' Paul says there migbt be an excess of processing apples because tht canners are leery about getfing enough sugar at a guoti price. Buying expen- sive sugar might boost tht price of the product too much. Swim Pool (Fromn Page Ont) would act as agents for tht municipality.' Mn. Brown stat- ed that this was necessary in that tht town owned tht land and tht clubs couldn't take out a building permit on land they didn't own.' Ht also stateti that, according to tht Town's solicitor, it would be compli- catiedifnot impossible fortht clubs to take responsibility'for tht pool, there being su many different bodies involved. Mn. Brownî said that hle was going te take tht proposeti agreement befween tht town and tht service clubs to solicitor AI Strike for its final tirafting. Ht would then get tht necessary signatures from tht service clubs involved and present it to tht mayor and clerk for tht final signing today. Council in order to protect tht town, passed an amendment to tht bylaw, that tht signing of tht agreement would be on tht approval of tht mayor and clerk of tht final agreemnent. A sod turning ceremony at Memonlal park is pianned for today between 6 B m. anti 7 p.m., providing tht uilding permit tan be obtain- ed. In order to conform to tht town's bylaws, tht agreernent bas to be signed before a building permit tan be issued, andi to begin tht excavation is to begin to build. Mn. Brown toid touncil that it would be written in tht agreement that $25,000 would be deposited in an account by tht clubs, before tht agret- ment was sîgned, and that other funds, letters ut credit, etc. would be furnished to tht town to cuver all expenses inturred by tht tonstruction ut tht pool, not covered by tht Fascinating Ont, Art Gallery Liptay Charges Mayor Will Reopen On Sat. at Ili Rickard with Buildïig With 5 Hours of Festivities, On an Unimproved Road At 10 arn. on Saturday, 9ctober 26th, to the skirl oft tht pipes of the 48tb Highlanders, .the Art Gallery of Ontario wili 3wing wide the doors of its niew building on Dunidas Street West to the Public.
