At the Wheel of a Newcastle Fire Truck Prohibits. S Scugog's new noise bylaw was tabled Monday, June 9, to ailow the addition of a paragraph that will exempt farm enterprizes from it. Scugog Township Councillor Don Frew stated that such a restrictive bylaw would 'fin ish him and other farmers." 'It would be nice if we could operate our machinery be- tween the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m." he said, "but thàt's simply impossible. That is unless you are willing to pay $4 or $5 a pound for your beef. Then we can do it." The main concern in the bylaw is a clause that states no business or other undertak- ing which causes a noise that would disturb the peace, quiet, comfort, or repose of any individual in any dwelling, house, apartment house, hotel or other place of residence, shall be operated from the hours of8p.m. to 6:30 a.m. the following day. As well as the business clause, the bylaw prohibits the operation of excavation or building construction machin- ery between the hours of 8 p.m. and 6 a.m., Signal devices such as a bell, horn or other such equipment on anv vehicle will houting not be operated within the township "except where re- quired by law for a reasonable period of time." The bylaw also prohibits shouting or "unusual or un- necessary noise" which dis- turbs or is calculated to disturb the peace, quiet, comfort or repose of any person in any type of resi- dence, institution, or place of business within the township. Noises included in the bylaw and deemed to be unnecessary are the sound of noise from a radio or phonograph or sound producing instrument, played in such a manner or with such volume as to annoy or disturb the peace. Also any sound made by any domestic animal or bird that disturbs the peace, quiet, comfort, or repose of the inhabitants in the neighbour- hood. The bylaw does not apply to public-convenience or necess- ity, church bells, parade or publicegathering, operating for a limited period of time under permit. Anyone convicted, of a breach of the bylaw is subject to pay a penalty of no more than $300.

MLS Real Estate Sales Continue Upward Trend On Thursday afternoon, Kindergarten students from Grandview Public School in Manvers Township visited the Bowmanville Fire Station and had the opportunity to sit in the trucks. Sales for the month of May through the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) of the Oshawa and District Real Estate Board (ODREB) were up 289 per cent over May of 1974. There were 148 MLS sales for a total of $7,253,000.00, the great majority being for residential transactions. Sales for the first five months of 1975 were up a more modest ~6 per cent as compared to the same time period last year. Homes listed for sale by the individual Brokers from Pick- ering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Bowmanville and Port Perry areas through the Board's MLS system has passed the 1,600 mark so far this year. This figure passes the total number of listings submitted for the full year of 1973. These figures reflect the attitude of buyers in our areas. More and more of the people who have been waiting over the past few years, deciding when the best time would be to buy, are acting now. With the increased number of homes on the market now, the choice bas never been better. Then, look at these figures; the average price of MLS sales for the first five months of 1974 was $45,802.00. This year the com- parable figure is $47,346.00. Mack Parliament of the Canadian Real Estate Associ- ation reports an example produced by real estate execu- tive Stephen Bartlett shows how high prices in Toronto could be by 1984. In 1964, he noted, prices averaged $17,000.00 and increased by 230 per cent to $56,020.00 by 1974. But by 1984 the average price of a Metropolitan Toron- to home, he estimated, will be $185,000.00. Bartlett studies records and deed registrations back to 1900 and concluded that since the turn of the century - although there have been temporary declines in real estate values - prices have gone steadily forward. It is possible events will occur to prevent Bartlett's predictions from comlng trter b ooking backward most people who bought houses from Vancouver to Halifax in 1965 for an average price of $15,951.00 didn't think their average sale price today would be $43,785.00. While rational people in and out of the real estate industry would like to see the price of houses and other commodities stabilize, one must face the bitter facts. Unless the cost of land, labor and materials stabilize, house prices will be forced still higher. O.P.P. The Ontario Provincial Police at the Newcastle De- tachment investigated the following Motor Vehîcle Accidents and Occurrences during the period June 9,'1975 to June 16, 1975. Thirty-five Motor Vehicle Accidents were investigated in which fifteen person were injured. Nine of these Collis- ions took place at or near Mosport Park during the past weekend. As a result of these collisions twelve persons have been charged with a driving offence under the Criminal Code. The Newcastle Officers also investigated one hundred and Harbor Marina at Newcastle Attracting Many Boaters to Area f ifty eigbt occurrences of a general nature. Some of the se occurrences were as follows; there were eleven investi- gations relating to "THEFT" offences, three relating to "BREAK AND ENTER" offences, three relating to "WILFUL DAMAGE" offen- ces and three relating to complaints of "ASSAULT". Other activities included in- vestigations into complaints of erratic drivers, lost and found properties and missing per- sons. During the past weekend the Newcastle Officers, along wxith other Officers from various Detachments wifhin Peterborough Ontario Pro- vincial Police District, in- vestigated various occurr- ences relating to events which occurred at or near Mosport Park. These occurrences per- tained to several reports of lost or stolen properties, trespassers, wilful damage and complaints of assault. Several investigations con- cerned violations of the Liquor Control Act. Twenty-two persons have been charged with offences under the Liquor Control Act, nine persons have been charg- ed with offences under the Criminal Code and nine per- sons have been charged with driving offences under the Crimmal Code.

DRIVING TIP: Dimming Headlights Drivers!, It's courteous....and a legal requirement.....to change high headlight beams' to low beams when meeting other vehicles at night. It's also courteous and a legal requirement to deflect the high beams when FOLLOW- ING another vehicle. Bright high beams cause dangerous dazzle in rear view mirrors and this can cause a collision. Remember, deflect your high beams when meeting or following other vehicles. Recent Graduate Another Big Weekend of Camping With Motorcycle and Car Races Coming on Dominion Day Holiday Provincial and private camping sites will no doubt be overflowing during the four- day holiday weekend of June 27, 28, 29 and 30 - the time of year which traditionally marks one of the heaviest camping weekends in Ontario. However, any member of the outdoor fraternity unable to find camping room might be advised to take advantage of Mosport's 700 acres of parkland and not only enjoy a weekend of camping, but have the opportunity of seeing one of the busiest and varied programs of motorsport. Mosport will feature the fourth annual Dominion to Independence Day Sprints, June 27-30, which will include the Motorcycle Grand Prix or Canada, supported by your local bottler of Coca-Cola on Saturday, June 28; the fourth round of the Bulova Champ- ionship for Formula 100s and 2.5 litre sedans and the B. F. Goodrich Sundown, a six-hour race into darkness, Sunday, June 29. Monday, June 30 the track will feature activities by the Historical Automobile Society of Canada. The weekend program act- ually starts Friday, June 27 with the daylight hours being reserved for motorcycle prac- tice followed later in the evening by the B. F. Goodrich endurance competitors who will have an opportunity to adjust to the unusual condi- tions experienced in night racing. As usual, camping, fire- wood, water and the Mosport Film Festival are being offer- ed free to all spectators. A Superticket which includes a reserved grandstand seat for the weekend is priceci at $12, while a Weekender is $10. Both tickets allow admittance to gasoline alley and garages all weekend, but only the Superticket incorporates a grandstand seat. Pellet Size Hole An unidentified projectile which left its marki the passenger window of a éàr driven by a Scarborough man Friday could have been a pellet fired from a nearby gravel quarry according to Durham Regional Police. According to police, Stephen Walters of Scarborough, was south-bound on, Liberty St., returning from Mosport, when the occurrence took place. He told police the unident- ified object pierced halfway through the passenger win- dow. He indicated the hole in the windshield was similar to the size of a pellet. If you haven't seen the harbor at Newcastle Village recently, it's well worth a visit. Considerable development has taken place there, a new entrance breakwater welcomes boaters and the docking facilities and other amenities at the marina are proving popular. Over the weekend, dozens of large and small craft made Newcastle Marina their home base as they enjoyed the magnificent weather that was spoiled only a couple of time by squalls and thunderstorms.
