Baton Champion and Her Trophies Volume 122 20e Per Copy BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO, WEDU Co r ittee Approves. Centres, Over Objection From Planners Applications for the development of shopping centres in three Bowmanville locations were approved by the town's Planning Advisory Committee Monday night in spite of recommendations from the town planning department. However, it may be a while before it is possible to buy a quart of milk at Waverly and Base Line Road. A shopping centre at King St. and Simpson Ave. will not have its first phase completed until next February. $1 7,000 Fire Hits Building Near Newcastle The Planning Advisory Committee has not yet approved re-zoning for any of the shopping centre applica- tions. That will have to come later. The committee also made it clear at last Monday's meeting that the shopping centres will have to be subject to works department approval and approval from the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority. CLOCA Approval CLOCA approval will have to be given to one shopping centre developer (the Pytha- gogas Group) which plan a 170,000 square foot centre on Base Line Road, East of Waverley. This is because the shopping centre would be located on the flood plain of Bowmanville Creek. The de- veloper is suggesting cut and fill operatons to build up the land at this location. Two representatives from CLOCA told the committee last night that at the moment, they are reacting negatively to the Pythagoras Group shopping development on the flood plain. Shopping centre recom- mendations nmade last Mon- day have to be passed by council and council will make its recommendations to the region. Input from the council will be used in drawing up the Durham Regional Plan,-- a plan that is scheduled for unveiling late this month.

TwO bours later, seven months worth of, Pampers Disposable Diapers were delivered to ber dad, Raymond at 206 Simpson Ave. here in Bowmanville. A And there's more to core. As the chief beneficiary of the top prize in "All the Pampers Your Baby Can Use" contest, Laura is entitled to a two year supply of the disposables. The remaining 17 month shipment is due to arrive sometime around Christmas. Raymond Bickle's wife Pa- tricia, who is still in hospital following the birth of her second daughter, is no doubt mentally calculating the hours of work saved by the diaper bonanza. Prior to the arrival of Laura, she purchased a supply of cloth diapers to save on expenses. But for Raymond, the mountain of diapers may pose a storage problem. The Bickles live in a two bedroom. apartment and he had to resort to using space in the basement electrical room for the first load. When the second shipment arrives, he may have to put his tandem dump truck at the back of the building to a rather unconven- tional use. A fire on Monday left a building near Newcastle, used for storage and keeping chickens, with damage estimated as high as $17,000.

The fire started ,in a grain storage area and spread through the building, killing between 15 and 25 chickens. The cause of the fire is stillunknown.
