2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, December 28, 1977 Police Expand (From Page One) The boundaries patrolled by 16 Division will extend from the Newcastle - Oshawa townline in the West, to the border of the former townships of Hope and Clarke, and north from Lake Ontario to the loth Concession. Youth Bureau In addition to the 15 experienced officers transferring to Newcastle's headquarters, a new youth bureau will operate out of the local office to deal with juvenile cases. Their office in the police and fire building at 132 Church Street will continue to stay open to the public from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., while patrols will cover the area on a 24 hour-a-day basis. The only renovation required for the existing facilities was the addition of a new locker room. The radio system, described as one of the most modern despatch systems of any police department has also been upgraded. An officer with the former Town of Bowmanville Police Department, Staff Sargeant McGuey said that On VOLKSWAGEN LTD.

See ourad on Page 10 morale within the force has reached a peak with the expansion project on the verge of implementation. Greater efficiency and less confu- sion will be the most evident results of the new system, he predicted, and residents will be able to identify "who is responsible for policing the area." Transition Period Until people become familiar with the new jurisdiction, however, the public is bound to have qualms about the changes that have taken place. For the force itself, the job is essentially the same one that it has always been, simply encompassing more men and a larger area. While the public adjusts to the transition, they can look forward to an improved level of service, according to the Staff Sargeant. In the long run, the size of the juridiction should have only a minute effect on day-to-day opera- tions, and the details during the interim have been thoroughly examined to create as few incon- veniences as possible for the average citizen.

Several skits were performed Road Wou A representative of the Maranatha Christian Reformed Church in Bowmanville said this month that a four-lane arterial road past the church -would disrupt Sunday wor- ship. The route of a new four-lane arterial street for East Bowmanville was selected by - the Durham Region's planning and development and works committees at a joint meeting recently. Their choice would mean a major street along Cemetery Rd. passing between the church and the Bowmanville Ceme- tery. "The adoption of this recom- mendation would mean a great loss to us, not so much of the parking space west of our church, which could, according to the committee, be relocated, but the loss of a quiet and peaceful place of worship on Sundays and all the meetings that are held during the evenings," said Rev. Guv Corvers in a brief to Regional Council Wednesday, December 14. Mr. Corvers is president of the Consistory of the Maranatha Chris- tian Reformed Church. He noted that in addition to traffic on the road, the starting and stopping of cars would disrupt the church if stoplights were located in the future at the corner of Cemetery Rd. and Highway Two. during the concert, making it an even greater success than last year. The grade thirteen girls performed first, forming a chorus line. Next, the members of a grade eleven Theatre Arts class became well-known detectives searching for the missing Santa Claus. The sixth Annual M.E. Awards were pre- sented by Frenchy Tay- lor. The award for the biggest nose at BHS was a toss-up between Mr. Clarke and Mr. Sobil. Mr. Clarke was award- ed nasal mist, and Mr. Sobil was presented with a box of Kleenex. Mr. Lemieux added some humour to the show, playing his guitar and singing "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" and "Please Daddy, Don't Get Drunk This Christmas". The teachers performed a skit for the final number. Honourable mention goes to Bill Dykstra, who received a standing ovation for his act as a Dutch Impres- sionist. Santa Claus ar- rived late in the show to present a cheque in the amount of $200.00 on behalf of BHS to Memorial Hospital, Bowmanville. The concert was very entertaining and was enjoyed by all.

The meeting has been tentatively scheduled for January 23, at two p.m. in the St. John's Anglican Church. "There's got to be a start somewhere and it's going to be difficult," said Councillor Jasper Holliday last week. Bud Fanning, director of parks and recreation for Doug Dilling, Brook Cole and Kent Wilcox.

Francis Bacon The Staff and Students of Bowman- ville High School wish to extend Merry Christ- mas wisjies and greet- ings for the New Year to all. the town of Newcastle, said he would help publicize the upcoming meet- ing. Both men made their comments at a discussion held during a mueeting of the community services commit- tee. A temporary committee of eight persons has volunteered to lead the investigation into a senior citizens centre. Rev. Tom Gracie was elected chairman of this group during the community services committee meeting. ild Disrupt "It is true that the building of a new road in many ,cases increases the value of property, but for us, you understand, it will greatly decrease the value of our particular kind of property and church building," Mr. Corvers stated. He added that the road will also be a safety hazard because the en- trance to the church would become more crowded with traffic if Cemetery Rd. were widened. "We fear that this will become the busiest road in Bowmanville, he stated. In a second presentation to council, a developer with interests in northeast Bowmanville also indicat- ed opposition to the Cemetery Rd. thoroughfare. Marvin Rubenstein, an engineer representing Shickedanz Develop- ments said that if Cemetery Rd. were selected, the total cost of construction will be greater. He pointed out that in addition to building the new four-lane street, Highway Number Two will still have to up-graded. This will cost over half a million dollars above the $3.7 million estimated cost to build the Cemetery Rd. project. The construction of a four lane highway along Cemetery Rd. would also make it necessary to build two additional bridges over Soper Creek, Mr. Rubenstien said.
