Canadian Tire, the Dom- inion food chain, the Toronto- Dominion bank, Mac's Milk, Zeller's, and Consumer's Dis- tributing were some of the companies that will lease approximately 170,000 square feet of space in the centre, Mr. Sprackman said. With the backing of nine major companies, Mr. Sprackman said the area that Western Auto proposes to develop into a shopping centre must show a certain amount of potential for growth. He told the committee that contrary to what the town's plannning department thought of the centre, it would be beneficial to both businesses and residents of the area. The proposed centre would also bring approximnately $130,000 in annual taxes and employ about 700 people, he said.

But the second phase would call for more department stores and a $3 million hotel, the Bowbrook representative said. Town planner George How- den opposed the developer's argument and told the com- mittee that the proposed sites for the centres would draw business away from the down- town core. The approval of a shopping centre in Bowmanville at the present time would be a mistake, he suggested, because the town's population would not be large enough to support it. Mr.rHowden said the area around King and Simpson streets should be developed to extend the central business district when the town's popu- lation warranted expanding the district. A spokesman for another developer at the planning meeting told the committee that the company he repre- sented was planning to start construction on a four acre site in the King and Simpson area in 1976. The representative agreed with Mr. Howden's statement that a shopping centre in the southwest corner of Bowman- ville would take business away from the central area. The proposed shopping centre might also force businesses presently located in the central area to move to other areas in order to draw customers he said. A special meeting wil be called sometime soon to explain the proposed shopping centres to town officials, the three chambers of commerce clubs in the area, council and the planning staff. Participation (From Page One) to pay a developer," she said. Newcastle Mayor Garnet Rickard has told her that the land which is presently zoned for agricultural use can be rezoned as residential without any problems, she added. According to Dr. Gilchrist, building on the project may be delayed because of a current hold up in government grants. "But, it will have f0 begin by July, 1977 or the land will revert to the OHC," she said. The surrounding 9612 acres will be used by the OHC for a new subdivision, Dr. Gilchrist added. When the project is finished it will be capable of holding 24 residents on a full-time basis, serve six in cases of emergen- cy and 30 on a daily, bussed-in basis. Presently, the only Partici- pation House in North Amer_ ica is located in Markham, Ont., and serves 38 fuli-time residents, six emergency and family-relief residents and 75 on a daily, bussed-in basis. Town's Budget (From Page One) Despite that, Coun. Ken Lyall commented that with the $480,000 more needed this year than last, "people will stili yell that the taxes have gone up." In addition, Coun, Lyall suggested that in orderfto bring the increase in this year's figures into proper perspective, one needs to total up the figures for 1973 from all the former municipalities that comprise the Town of New- castle, prior to the formation of the region. Coun. Ann Cowman inter- jected however, that it also would be necessary to add 30 per cent to such a total (10 per cent per year) to bring them in me whth inflationary trends. resolution from the committee hat such information would be supplied to the public when he budgets are finalized and he bylaw passed approving hem, although if would no doubt be most revealing data n the success or failúre of the 'egional system.

Using her rich, clear voice to advantage, she seemed to perform effortless- ly. And if she wasn't thorough- ly enjoying herself in the demanding role, she had the audience completely fooled. Excellent casting in the key supporting roles also contri- buted to the show's success. In fact, judging by a quick glance at the program, it appeared that Courtice pulled out all the stops for this production. Though there wasn't the proverbial 'cast of thousands', at least 150 students were involved with all aspects of the show. Under the direction of Mrs. Kathy Coverly, the popular Rodgers and Hammerstein musical noved along well despite a few difficulties with the lavish props on opening night. ¡ by Liz Armstrong A sparkling performance by 17-year-old Kathleen Eyman gave Courtice Secondary School's version of South Pacific the extra touch it needed to guarantee a suc- cessful four night run at Bowmanville High School Auditorium last week. Musicals have a curious way of missing the mark sometimes, but following Miss Eyman's lead, the Courtice students handled South Pacific very well indeed. As the charming but fickle Ensign Nellie Forbush, Miss the municipality, also fromn the budget, is shown as $1,608,879, an increase of $258,081 or 19.11 per cent over the '75 budgetted levy of $1,530,217. Education costs are also up again with public schools alone showing an increase in the levy of $375,249 or 23.36 per cent, up from $1,606,096 in '75 to $1,981,345 for '76. On the secondary school side of the story, the increase is some 30.42 per cent or $405,645, up from $1,333,675 in '75 to $1,739,320 for '76. On the revenue side of the comparative budget summary which Mr. Descent also pre- sented Monday, a total of $9,442,797 will have to be raised from various sources for 1976. This is an increase of 19.71 per cent over the 1975 budget- ed revenue of $7,888,227 or $1,554,570 more than last year. Under the revenue heading, the tax levy for 1976 is budgeted at $6,792,187, $1,277,250 or 23.16 per cent more than the '75 figure of $5,514,937. In addition, other tax revenue is anticipated at $283,580, up $18,308 or 6.90 per cent over the $265,272 figure for '75. Contributions from other governments are not up much for 1976, an increase of only 1.52 per cent being expected. In dollars the 1975 figure was $1,523,032 while only $1,546,200 is shown for '76, an increase of only $23,168. An increase of 4.36 per cent is anticipated from other additional revenue sources for a 1976 budget figure of $561,315 while a surplus of $259,515 makes up the balance of the revenue total. According to a member of the Newcastle Village Hall Board, the fact that council were locked out of the hall when they arrived for their April 19 meeting at 1:00 p.m., was not deliberate. Narda Hoogkamp called the Statesman Tuesday morning to advise that the door had been lef t open for council by the caretaker but that it is easily locked by pushing a button. Apparently some children, out of school as it was Easter Monday, were seen there prior to council's arrival and must have locked the door as they have apparently done on previous occasions. Coun. Ken Lyall was critical of the door having been locked when council arrived and considered if a deliberate action on the part of the Hall Board. Mrs. Hoogkamp advises that Coun. Lyall, as a member of the hall board, could have taken the initiative to call or go t the home of the caretaker and gef the key for the door, or cail another memborof the hall hoanothe Kinsmen Ail Set For Bike-A-Thon All systems are go for the Bowmanville Kinsmen's Bi- Kin-Along on Sunday. Accord- ing to Publicity Chairman Ross Fitchett, club members are prepared to handle up to 1500 entries for the event, which starts between 8 and 11 a.m. at Memorial Park Safety is the keynote for all participating cyclists. In Three KiIled (Turn to Page Two) The 2:55 p.m. crash nvest- igated by Provincial Con- stable Rick Foreman, occur- red just west of the Bennett Road interchange. -Cons. Foreman reports that both victims were killed instantly. Three ambulances,two from Bowmanville and one from Oshawa were required to transport the seven injured parties to hospital. The de- ceased were removed to Northcutft Elliott Funeral Home. Two tow trucks, plus another vehicle with trailer were needed to haul away the wrecked cars to Brock's BP station, Bowmanville. Const. Foreman was en- route to the Newcastle Of- fice in his own car for a 3 p.m. shift when he came upon the accident which completely closed the high- way until about 3:30 p.m. Traffic was rerouted through Bowmanville via Liberty Street and High- way 2. Traffic was also kept to one lane until after 4 p.m. as investigation, removal of the deceased parties and cleanup of the derelict vehicles was completed. addition to having Kinsmen stationed at all corners along the 15 mile route (which is completed twice) the Durham Regional Police will be on hand to pass the bicycles through a safety check. Each participant who has his bike certified by the police will be eligible for a draw on-two 10 speed bicycles. At 10 a.m., the Tri-Kin- Alon will start at the I.G.A. parking lot on King Street. The trike riders will attempt to complete 30 laps of the lot, and two names will be drawn to declare the winners of three speedbicycles. In case of ramn (or snow) both events will be cancelled until the following Sunday. Bell Offering (From Page One) pay a service charge. Furthermore, for any two- week period commencing be- tween May 3 and May 28, they will not have to pay the usual Touch-Tone monthly rate of $2.15. "If tey want to keep the phone, they wiii start paying the monthly rate at the end of the two week trial," said Ken Hird, Bell Canada manager. "But they will have had it installed at no charge as well as having had the use of it free for two weeks. If, at the end of two weeks, or at any time during it, the customer wants the service removed, Bell Canada will re-install the former rotary dial phone without charge. No one who wishes to try Touch-Tone service will have their telephone number changed. "Ittakes specialequipment in a central office to handle Touch-Tone service, but Bow- manville has had this equip- ment since last year," Mr. Hird explained. He pointed out that it is faster and easier to tap out a telephone number on the Touch-Tone buttons than it is to dial the same number. "We find that most people who have fried Touch-TonE phones like them anduwe hope f0 infroduce fhelm f0 more Bowmanvilie homes wifh this free trial offer," said the Bel manager. Claims Cutbacks (From Page One) budget within the next 12 months. As for the past year, Mr. Elston said that 1975 was "a very difficult year to manage due to lack of consistency in Ministry of Health policies, and the necessity in dealing with an across-the-board two per cent restraint factor to an already 'squeezed' budget." He added that the hospital managed to cope with the restraint "without termin- ating or laying off any full time employees on a full time basis." He predicted that 1976 "will far surpass the problems of 1975, in that the present posture of the Ministry of Health is obviously formu- lated on the application of reduced costs, irrespective of service loss or quality of care given." Mr. Elston continued by saying that "it would appear :hat we will be entering into hat phase of health care services when al fthings will fot be available to all persons ft all times."

BACK INFRONT ROW Though he's no longer a member of the 'shadow cabinet' Allan Lawrence M.P. is now in the front bench in the House of Commons as a result of new seating arrangements announced on Monday. A Conservative source described the new position, which is three seats down from the speaker, as much more prestigious and hinted that Mr. Lawrence may be offered other responsibilit- ies. Mr. Lawrence was offered another spot in the shadow cabinet recently, but the M.P. from Northumberland turned it down. Tory sources say that he is a leading can- didate for the nomination as chairman of the public accounts committee which is always headed by an opposition M.P. LAUNCHES RED SHIELD On Monday, His Worship Mayor Garnet Rickard offi- cially declared the Salvation Army's annual Red Shield campaign for funds open May lst. The objective is $5,000.
