Port Hope Chamber of Commerce started their celebration on Monday and finish up on Sunday. There's a band concert there Thursday at 8, and Saturday at 1 they will hold their gigantic Calithumpian parade, followed by a band competition. NO MAIL - While all this is going on, you should be advised that the Post Office folks will be holidaying along with most other people on Monday, July 1st, so all services will be cancelled for the day, except for one Street Letter Box collection. They'll be tired but back to regular service on Tuesday. THAT ISN'T ALL - Friday is also the beginning of Bowmanville Week, sponsored by the local Jaycees. This is a week long celebration with different events every day and music every night at the new location across from the Port Darlington Marina. All the details are listed in other advertisements in the second section. Plan now to attend some or all of them. ONE WAY ONLY Nttorists have been having quite a time this week, as you will note from the picture at the top of this page. They don't remember that as of Monday, Silver St. is a one-way street, going north, with a stop sign so far at Church St. The paving work on King St. hasn't helped because for a couple of days it was difficuit to get onto King West to make make the turn north. If the paving is completed' this week, there won't be much excuse starting about Tuesday. To Have Nuclea Newcastle's municipal officials plan to hold a publie meeting so that residents can get their concerns over the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station off their chests. At a special meeting of council members Monday morning, a publie forum at the Bowmanville High School auditorium was recommend- ed in order for Hydro to update residents on the status of the Darlington Generating Station. But the main purpose of the meeting will be to allow the public to ask questions concerning the power plant. The fact that the meeting will be held at the Bowmanville High School indicates the concern by some council members that a large number of residents might wish to attend. Regional Councillor Ivan Hobbs told the Statesman that he believes if a referendum were held on the construction of the Darlington r input Nuclear Generating Station, 80 per cent of the population would be opposed to it. "I think the people have a right to ask questions and have input into this," Councillor Hobbs said. He added that he believes there should have been an environmental assess- ment of the Droiect in the first place. "It seems crazy. You build 'aplant there (at Darlington) and then what do you do? We build up Courtice," Turn to Page 2 Bowmanville Girl Killed In TWO-XV A head-on collision early Saturday morning in Manvers township claimed the life of a Bowmanville girl just four days before she would have graduated from the Senior Public School.

Chairman Thompson advises that he did not vote on this particular resolution. As Chairman he merely stated that the resolution to stop spraying was lost when the vote was tied. Our apologies for the error. BALLOON RIDE - Peter Ansley of Canadian Tire has arranged a major attraction to celebrate Canada's birthday. Famous parachutist Bill Cole (not the one at Ken's Men's Wear) is coming here on Saturday, bringing his big balloon that will be inflated on the Darlington Auto Centre lot, across from Canadian Tire. And anyone with a Saturday re- ceipt from Canadian Tire here will get a free ride to look over the town from up top. See the ad- vertisement on the back page of the second section. Cole still plans to parachute from the CN tower so he'll be interesting to talk to.
