Community Care Holds Tea and Raffle in Bowmanville Suggest Solution To Dur ainage As a resuit of public works meeting recently, resi- dents of Frank Street may be 'one step dloser ta getting their drainage problems solved. The committee endorsed a decision by Director of Public Works, Jack Dunham, ta file a petition regarding drainage of Frank Street under the Drainage Act with town clerk, Joe Mcllroy. Dunham explained that once the petition is filed, town council has 30 days ta decide whether ta take action on the matter or not. If it decides in favor of doing sa il must appoint an engineer ta examine the watershed and A beautiful quilt and afghan were offered as prizes at a raffle held last Tuesday, May 1, at the Community Care Tea and Bake Sale. Mrs. Garnet Rickard officially opened the tea which was held at the Memorial Park Clubhouse.

In making this announcement, Min-, ister Keith Norton explained that many youngsters in difficulty witb the law do not necessarily require the institutional approach of a training school as a means of rehabilitation. Further, the number of children in training schools bas declined by almost 50 per cent because of a decrease in the number of children between the ages of 12 and 16; sborter and fewer committals to training schools; and increased use of community group homes. Most wards in Pine Ridge will bave graduated by October and any remaining children will be THAPAR' DENTURE THERAPY CLINIC 163 SimCoe St. South Oshawa 579-8752 Open Mon. to Sat. and evenings -by appointment only DURHAM COU NTY SALES ARENA is now changing its SALE NIGHT TO: WEDNESDAY Starting May 9th ai 8:00- p.m. *stocke rs, f eeder cattile, cows, calves, springers, pigs, goats, sheep. Sam at Q ueen 's Park transferred to other schools. The Minister stressed that the province's policy was not simply ta close down schools but rather direct funds from the closures towards improving programns and developing community alternatives for all children's services. Last year the Minister announced a tbree- phase plan to reduce the number of training schools from 10 to tbree or four. With this year's closures, there will be six training schools in operation. As the provincial representative for this area, I totally sympathize with those wbo bave worked at Pine Ridge and those residents who bave, in the words of the Minister "been excellent hosts to our training schools over the years." In tbis respect, the Minister bas- assured me that there are sufficient vacancies witbin government ta offer alternative positions ta classified civil servants now atPine Ridge. The prizes. The afghan was drawn by Mr. Albert Pearce and won by Miss Lou Higginson, from Hawkesbury. Mrs. Allan Lawrence drew the winning ticket on the quit and Miss Stephanie Barnes, of Bowmanville was the winner. Proceeds from the tea will go to the Community Care projeet. Ministry also plans to work actively with the Bowmanville coin- munity and other ministries to develop new job opportunities. Before the closure of Pine Ridge was announced, the Ministry inquired if the facilities could be used for other purposes. At that time, neither the federal governmnent nor any provincial Ministry was in a position to do so. There bas been some talk, bowever, that the site could serve the purpose of Newcastle's Town Council or perbaps a Participation Ilouse. I assure you that the announcement of the Pine Ridge enclosure, as well as the otber closure, was a pleasant talk. However, these closures will allow for the more efficient use of Letter to Editor Dear Sir: Millbrook Public School and former Continuation School is celebrating its 901h Anniversary this year.

He would then assess the problem and mnake recom- mendations as ta how it couid be alleviated. Ail property owners who contribute ta the water problem have ta pay for drainage.
