ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1963 ORONOWEEKLY TIMES Authorized as Second, Glass maiL. Post Office Department, Ottawa Established in 1938 by R. A. Forrester Mosport Critics and sceptics wbo have poTndered the future of Mosport, north of Orono, will h-ave to revise their subject matter following the successful "Player's 200" on Saturday,, June let. During the 1962 racing season interest of spectatorsý for the events at Mosport appeared to be dieIng off and as a result einancial probtems faced this young enterprise to the north. The 34,000 in attendance on Saturday was certainly a reversai of last wear's attendance andmust have given a boost te the moral and the financial purse of those promnoting the sport at Mosport. Success cannot be judged on a single evenit but also deatb of-the enterprise cannot be laid at its door witb basis f rom a sing'le season. Like any new enterprise, ups and- downs wîll be re- corded before stability exists ami Mosport appears to be no exception. The sport must have a sizeable followng as shown on Saturday . . . the pint is to get it to Mosport. Iiicidentally, a new use has been found for Scotch Pine other than use. as a Christmnas tree. At Mospori spectators find tbem very useful as 10kouts and on race-day many a $coitch Pine trembled to the load of spectators. Orono 1Creek The'old sayin.g that the ",Squeakîng Wheel" gets the evl appears to still h<old true. During the past two months the Town. of Port Hope bas been chomping on the bit over the levy împosed by the G-anaraska River Authority. This was carried .to the pint of makIng un appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board for which ta hearing date w*as set. * The Port Hope Council have now resolved their differ- ,ences with the Ganaraskia Authority and have given their solicitor authority te withdraw the appeal to the Municipal Board. In doing se they have gained in their negotiations with the Ganaraska an undertakinrg along the Ganaraska River within the bounds of the Town. The Town, bas thus i giving thieir financial 'support have in return more or les quaranteed the retiurn of this money into their own centr, w'ith the dcvelopment of park lands and river frontage. Hope Township bas tas a participant in the scheme gained a park at Garden Hill and are now to have a "Look- Ot"l developed at Dean's Hill. Clarke Township during the years have seen a total of ,around '3000 'acres pyurcbased in the north-east corner for re- foresting. There bas however been ia lack of development.ini which the general public can enjoy without travelling to ot4er areas. Clarke bas also been ýa more-than willing supporter of the movement 'as they have paid on a par witb sucb centres as Port Hope. (This bas ichanged to a degree this year.). Cl'arke bas not been a squeaking wheel In the projects undertaken. It would 'appear that such areas as the Wilmot sbhould now corne into consideration and areas such as those in Leskard, Orono and on ýte the lalke are due for some form of development. Looking'edoser te home one might view the disregard of the Orono Creek witb ýdispair. It is certainly a wonderful natural asset to this community. Conservation work ýalong this streamicould preserve its flow and its beauty as it meanders its leisureiy way to Lake Ontario. May the powers ithat be place sojue pressure for the Ganýiaraiska to consider a plan for this creek in the near future .Iiifter aita1txpayers in the entire Township have been pay- lnig towards ithis scbeme for a good many years even though they were nt included in the boundaries of the, Ganaraska Riv er Autority. Liquor 'Question ,LJ ,Vo0te S Reveal 'ublic Apathy on0f these days, or months or years, Oshawa will .have a liquor plebiscite. There seems to be considerable public interest in that possibility at present, but we wonder how many citizens will be interested, enougih te mark ballots when voting day arrives. Despite the heated campaignrs sta.ged by "wets" and' "drys"' in every municipality where a liquor plébicsite is to be held, the reaction of the public seers to be opie 0f nurnbed apathy towards the expression 0f opinion by ballot. in St. Catharines, the -city councl bas called the at- tention of Premier Robarts to tihe 'inconclusîve resuits" of pichiscites in that area. Both cocktail bars and dining lounges !were rejected in the, former town of Merrfitton, but oniy 15 percent 0f tire eligible voters turned out-te express an opinion. In a part of Grantham township, amalgamnated witb the city of St. Catharines in 1961, cocktail bars and lounges were ap- proved;, only 20 per cent of the eligible voters cast ballots. The two plebiscites cost the taxpayers $7,000. Commuhity after community bas shown the same re- sponse te the liquor questions, and one is forced te the op- U.C.W. UNIT NEWS UNIT 1, U.C.W.
