The -toms, Bantams and Midgets have been eliminated from play- down series. Theý Orono Bantams appear to have hit' a slump after starting Che year in fine form. This club lost out to a Pickering club last week in, the OMIIA playdowns. The final gainme of the two game series was played -in Orono on Friday niglit when Orono lost by a score of 8 to 4. The Orono Midgets have also been eliminated by the Newcastle Midgets in a three-game series. Orono won the fîrst game but lost the next two. Tre second game played in Newcastle last Friday was a decîded victory for Newcastle, 8-1. On Saturday night the final and deciding game was played in Orono with Newcastle taking a 9-5 win. Although Orono gave it an all-out effort they were u nable to overtake the Newcastle squad. Bill Robinson, a centre for Orono, was the most effective player of either team and dis- played some fine puck control and skating ability. Games. still continue every Friday evening at the Orono Rink. The Orono PeeWees in a Pee Wee Little NHL tournament on Saturday last 'won the consolation trophy but, lost *out ln their championship' bid.

During the meeting Reeve John Williams *of Pickering Town- ship said his township miglit not agree to coutribute towards the cost of the study, but the miuist- er iudicated the goverumieut had not changed its position on Pk-, ering Township anid sti'l feit it essential that >the townsliip be included iu the study. Mr. McKeough later suggested the study area for local goveru- ment review miglit be defiued as _Ontario County, Northumberland- Durham County, and possibly ev- en'.Victoria County. Ile stressed that the area of the local government review would have to remain flexible. MIr. Newman suggested during the session that the local goveru- menit review should include the western portions of Victoria and ,Nort humnberla nd -Durham Count- ies. T131ETABLE Mlr. Newman askecl Mr.ý Me- Keougli whether Jauuary, 1971 would be a reasouable date for the ouset of regional goverument and learued that Mr. McKeough considers Jauuary 1972 as a like- ly date for the start of regional goverument.
