On Sunday they visited Mrs. Rohrer's parents who are patients in the hospital at TillsQnburg. Bridal Shower On Wednesday evening Mrs. Howard Lee and Mrs. Neil Lee hosted a bridal shower to honour bride-elect Miss Brenda Shaw prior to her marriage in June. Each guest broke off a piece of string (short, long or medfum). This proved a unique get acquainted techn- nique when each person told her personal story as she wound the string around her finger - the longer the string - the longer the story. One innovative lady with an excep tionally long section finished by saying name etc, and "I wind awfully fast". This aill proved quite amusing as some reminiscing was done. Brenda was given a seat of honour in a gaily be-ribboned chair. Mrs. George Heasiip, p resident of the Ladies' Aid Three boys from Bowmanville High School will participate in the OFSSA final. From left to right are Dean Rutherford (Midget Boys Hurdles, 2nd place), Tom Connell (Junior Boys Pole Vault, 1st place) and Brian Lavergne (Senior Boys Pole Vault, 1st place). extended the welcome to all and wished the guest of honour much happiness in the years ahead. Miss Cathy Prosser assisted with the lovely gifts and read the congratulatory messages. Mrs. Brian Shaw of Port Perry fashioned the traditional Parisienne hat. Brenda extended a gracious "thank you" to her many friends for their kindness and pictures were taken as she modelled her latest millinery creation. For the programme Mrs. Richard Davison gave a splendid reading "A Fable for To-day's Woman" by Doris Anderson. This told of the aspirations of three little girls who planned on marriage or on a career. They all found happiness but somehow they did not reach that peak of perfect happiness about which they had dreamed. (Advice to the bride dreams do come true but -). The ladies of the church served the usual delicious lunch which included coffee and tea and all enjoyed the social hour. This was a delightful sur- prise party for Brenda and best wishes are extended to her and her fiance, Mr. James Paton, for much happiness as they journey through life. Nestleton-Cartwright Soft Ball On Thursday evening the Rohrer-Dorell soft ball team played an unusual game with the Bell Telephone team from Oshawa. Nestleton could do nothing wrong, got all the breaks and won by a large margin. Lake Scugog On Sunday in the Lake Scugog Soft Ball League Malmont Farm (Nestelton) vs Brooklifi also resulted in a win for Nestleton (13-1). Congrat- ulations boys and keep up the good team work. On Wednesday of this week the Recreation. Club is having a meeting of all the ball clubs. We shall hear more about this next week and the schedules may also be available then. Sunday Services In the Presbyterian Church Reverend Stuart McEntyre of Port Perry presided for the Communion Services at Nestleton and Sonya.

United Church Sunday School Anniversary In the United Church Rev- erend Robert Brawn, Port Perry, was the guest speaker qv~ kC for the annual Sunday School Anniversary. Reading I Samuel 3:1-18 he chose "Things of the Spirit" for his excellent message. The child- ren's choir was exceptional and delighted everyone with their service of song as they sang "Whisper a Prayer", "Simon" "This is the Day", "Morning Has Broken" and Miss Gail Malcolm favoured with the beautiful solo, "How Great Thou Art". E. LESLIE BROOKS A resident at 69 Scugog Street, Bowmanville for 34 years, E. Leslie Brooks, died on Tuesday, May 18th, 1976 in Memorial Hospital, Bowman- ville, in his 88th year. Born in Verulam Township, Victoria County, he was mar- ried March 6th, 1913 to Gertrude E. Elliott. -A carpenter by trade, he had also resided in Tyrone. He was a member of Trinity United Church, Bowmanville, and also a member of the L.O.B.A., L.O.L., and R.B.P. 398. Surviving besides his wife Gertrude, are two sons, Wil- liam and Glen, two daughters Myrtle and Winnie, eight grandchildren and 11 great Doug Moffatt, MPP, Durham East The whole question of waste disposal from Eldorado Nuclear Ltd. is now of concern to all Ontario residents, not only those in the Port Hope area. Two weeks ago, I asked George Kerr, Ontario Minister of the Environment, to inter- vene to ensure that a site is found quickly in view of the fact that the permit to use the Port Granby dump expires June 30. Mr. Kerr indicated that a committee to find a site had been formed under the chair- manship of his deputy minis- ter. It includes representat- tives from Eldorado, AECB, the federal ministries and the provincial ministry of health. Yesterday I again asked Mr. Kerr to intervene. He stated that progress has been made in that an estimate of the cost of the clean-up is now avail- able -- roughly a million and a half dollars. However, the site problem now looms larger than ever. Being somewhat cynical about the AECB, I pressed Mr. Kerr to give me a commit- ment that, if the company and AECB failed to pursue this search vigorously in the hope of paniçking some hapless grandchildren. Funeral services were held from the Northcutt Elliott Funeral Home on Friday. Reverend Arthur Amacher officiting. Pail-bearers were Messrs. Alvin Boyd, Baden Pingle, Jim Bedford, Herb Powell, Clarence English and Russell Brown. Interment Bowmanville Cemetery. ha VthRo municipality into providing a disposal site, he would desig- nate a site on the part of the province. This he was not prepared to do. Jurisdictional- ly, unfortunately, the weight of responsibility for finding a site appears to rest with AECB. The Minister emphasised that the site need not be in Ontario. Presumably the com- mittee will bear that in mind when it presents site suggest- ions on June 1st, its deadline date. When I got back to my office in the North Wing after this exchange, I found waiting for me a copy of the James F. MacLaren Ltd. report on the clean-up done for AECB. The engineers state that, because time is a critical factor, privately-owned land is out of the question. Expro- priation takes too long. Con- fining themselves, then, to Crown lands within a 50-mile radius of Port Hope, the only solution they find is to expand the Welcome and Port Granby sites. As we have seen, this solution is not acceptable to the community. The Minister is now serious- ly considering crown sites across Canada, particularly former armed forces bases. We exchanged notes on May 28 and he indicated that there are in fact many federally-owned sites which would be accept- able. In this context I suggest- ed White Plains, Alberta, to him as it is currently a waste disposal area. My feeling is that time is very, very short and we have to use all the power the Province can mUster in terms both of expertise and legal authority to fight federal inertia. gavis 2-Piece Livingroom Suite Reg. upto from the House of Braemore $69900 Semi-attached Pillow Bock * Arm Caps e Covered Decks Now OnIy 5 4 9 O Available in 6 Colors -LIMITED QUANITY- We have in stock over 35 livingroom suites in all styles ranging from Contemporary - Colonial - Traditional and French Provincial. ty Furniture ... at Sensible Prices!
