The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, June 9" 1976 9 Smashîng Evenfs Enjoyed By Ail af Westgate Races by D. Nesbitt On Saturday evening, rac- ing fans at Westgate Speed- way enjoyed a real smashing program which includedthe accidents in both Feature races and the gigantie Demo- lition Derby. In the Street Stock Feature three cars abreast tried to come around number three corner but found there just wasn't room for such shenan- nigans and such developed into a crashup. In the Late Model division, Car No. 43 driven by Jack Yelland took number 3 corner a little high and lost control of his car which took a flying leap into the bush and landed on its roof. Luckily, Jack escaped any injuries and informed us that the corn in the field out there is not ripe yet. Ron Robinson of Oshawa won the Demo Derby in which there was over 20 cars. Ron's car was still going strong at the end of the race. These races are really exciting and it sure is nice to know that there is one every other week on the program. One minute of silence was observed by the pit members and the spectators in the memory of Stu Hunter and Jim Vykteel of Barrie who had been killed in a highway accident on Wednesday, June 2nd. Stu and Jim had both competed at Westgate and Stu had held the 1974 Late Model Division Championship. A fund had been started by Caryl Fuller's wife in which both spectators and drivers could contribute to such. Stu left a wife and one son, and Jim a wife and three children. The total amount raised is not known but will be announced later., Street Stock Results lst Heat - 1. Ed Nesbitt, Newcastle; 2. Glen Burton, Lindsay; 3. Lee Terrion, Peterborough. 2nd Heat - 1.

Waverley Group Wants Shrubs A Waverly Gardens group suggested to council Monday that shrubs and greenery be planted between semi-detach- ed homes on Alonna St. and townliouses which are abut- ting the back yards of the Alonna St. homes. Eric Gareau, a resident of 63 Alonna St., said he represents 14 other residents on the west end of the street who are affected by the townhouses next door. He said the residents would prefer the shrubs to a fence. The shrubs would provide privacy for Alonna street residents. According to one man who lives on the street, the semi-detached homes are literally in the shadow of a townhouse development now being built. "They do have a problem down there," said Councillor Ken Lyall, who looked over the Alonna St. predicament. He said the townhouses are 10 to 15 feet from the back yard fence of the Alonna St. homes. The Councillor added, how- ever, that he would like to hear the developer's side of the story too. Council decided to invite the town's engineering and works departments as well as Clarion Investments, the townhouse developer, to a meeting of the town's works committee.- The Alonna St. problems will be discussed then. After the Alonna St. delega- tion had been before council, Dennis Sadler, who lives on the street, said that zoning by-laws state the minimum size of a rear yard must be 35 feet. Even though the yards of the townhouses behind his house are under 35 feet from the back yards of the Alonna St. dwellings, Mr. Sadler said the townhouses are built legally because their yards are not considered to be backyards but sideyards. Sideyards are not covered in the 35 foot bylaw. Another Waverly Gardens resident at the meeting said the townhouse yards may be On Saturday evening at Centennial Hall, the Mixed Major Bowling League held their annual banquet and awards presentation.

Eighty-seven members of the clan found it convenient to attend, some coming from as far away as Manotick and Hamilton. Beautiful sunny skies helped make the day a successful one. After some visiting, there were sports for young and old under the leadership of Mr. and Mrs. Randy Snowden and Mr. and Mrs. Grant Snowden.

A candv toss concluded the sports events just at 5 o'clock, when we filed into the hall for supper. Grace was said and everyone helped themselves to the--deliclous food that had been set out in buffet style. After the bounteous meal, Vice President Joe Snowden acted in place of President Edgar Werry and welcomed everyone. The minutes of the 1975 picnic and the treasurer's report were read and approv- ed and it was decided to hold the picnic in 1977, again at Solina Hall on the first Sunday of June. Joyce Brownell had brought along with her, a large portrait of the couple responsible for the Snowden Picnic, her great grandfather and great grandmother, Mr. Samuel Snowden and Mrs. Sarah Grace (Belett) Snow- den. A count was then taken of the descendants present from each of the six branches of the orginal family tree, and the Snowden Crest was won again for the second year and presented to Mr. Ron Snow- den. A prize was presented to Lola Freeman as the senior woman present (in her 90th year) and to Lloyd Snowden as senior man at the picnic (in his 80th year). Another prize went to the youngest member, four month old Terri-Anne Snowden. youngest member, four month old Terri-Anne Snowden. Sam VanCamp was the lucky winner of the jar of peppermints for his very close guess. At the end of the business, a moment's silence was held for those of our clan who had passed away during the past year. Many willing hands made short work of the dishes, and soon good-byes were being said and everyone departed in their varjous ways toward home. May 8, 1976 is World Red Cross Day.
