,Liberals breath life in local organization The recently-elected execu- tive and a group of enthusias- tic members of the Durham Liberal Association met at the home of Mr. amd Mrs. Allan Beer on Saturday evening, July 14. Early discussion centred around organizational plans for the Riding. A committee was established to review the Riding organization. Initially named to serve on this committee were Mr. K. Ent- wisle, Mr. K. Van Nest and Mr. E. Scott. A discussion of suggested social and fund-raising acti- vities followed. A committee comprised of Mr. N. Malcolm, Mr. A. Beer, Mr. T. Woodyard Mr. Howard Malcolm and Mr. W. Capeling was organized to arrange an appropriate event for late August or early September. Mr. Joe Thornly, a student co-ordinator for the Liberal Party of Ontario, explained the rational for establishing the New Liberal Association. He and the younger liberals then retired to discuss some activities of New Liberals throughout the province, and the formation of a Durham branch of the New Liberal Association. A discussion of the method of electing delegates at the Provincial Leadership Con- vention to be held in Toronto at the Royal York Hotel on October 27 and 28 then followed. Mr. A. Beer outlined the criteria for selecting legates. On a motion by Mr. Kirkpatrick and Mr. Ho- ward Malcolm, it was decided that the Youth delegates convention fees be paid by the Assocation. Miss Catherine Robinson, an Eastern Ontario organizer for the liberal Party of Ontario capably served as a resource person throughout the evening She emphasized the need of the caucus for regular input from the Riding associations of Eastern Ontario until they are adequately represented by Liberal MPP's followed the, next provincial election. Miss Robinson commented that the excellent attendance and pro- ductivity of the meeting were ypical of recent meetings ' -vhroughout Eastern Ontario and indicate the growing enthusiasm among Ontario Liberals. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Bragg, R.R.4, Bowmanville. Lucky you! The next time you consider how lucky you are to be in Canada, add this to the list of benefits... blood transfusions, free of charge, if and when you need them. Through the Red Cross, our county can boast one of the most efficient blood tranefus- ion services in the world. The programme provides a unique and vital service which has saved literally hundreds of thousands of lives. This serv- ice only exists because of the unselfishness of Canadians who are regular blood donors. Blood donors are part of a growing community of people who believe in action... they are doing something to help. For people in need, blood is a miracle. It is the kind of miracle that happens because you care enough to give. Please support your local clinic on Wednesday August lst. at the Lions Centre Bowmanville. Your donation is needed,if adequate supplies are to be on hand over the holidays. "Blood is life...pass it on!" Reeve Woodyard stated that in regards the by-law govern- ing Sunday operation at Mos- port he had found that the existing by-law had been passed under the wrong sect- ion of the Lord's Day Act. He presented a new draft to council which was accepted in general but some changes are to be made. The matter came before council due to an all-night race which had been held recently at Mosport. It was reported that nieghbouring residents had objected to the noise being carried on all night long. The Reeve's suggestion would not permit racing to be carried over from a Saturday into Sunday. Activities on Sunday would not start until 1.30 in the afternoon and continue no longer than 11.00 p.m. It was ponted out during the discussion that the OPP would not interfere at the last all-night race unless given authority to do so by the Attorney General of Ontario. Mr. Lovekin suggested that council in passing a new by-law make arrangements with the Attorney General's office and the OPP in advance so each party is aware of the conditions of the by-law and to what extent action is to be taken. The new by-law will prevent practicing on Sunday's prior to 1.30 p.m. To place two more portables at Orono In a report to the Board members last Thursday it was stated that two additional portables would be needed at the Orono Public School this year to accommodate addit- ional enrolment at the school. This will bring the number of portables at the school to four as two already do exist at the school. It is understood that students from the Orono Estates development at the north of Orono will be accom- modated at the Orono Public School. Sometime ago it was not established whether or not some of these students would be accommodated at the school in Kirby. The two new portables are to be located more to the front of the school property which would not have been the case south-east corner that it would if additional property could be require extra land tothe south obtained from the south. to achieve best building re- Approval will have to be sults.

Orono eek..imes VOLUME 37,NUMBER 27 CHAIRMAN RESIDES IN REGION The chairman of the Dur- ham region will definitely be someone who lives in the region, bas been learned. The information was elicit- ed from John White, minister of intergovernmental affairs, at Queen's Park last week. The Durham chairman bas already been informed of his appointment, but his name will not be released until after a cabinet meeting next Wed- nesday in Toronto. To give information on VD in schools Students iii the éight -high schools in Northumberland and Durham Counties are going to be told the plain facts about venereal disease. The Northumberland Dur- ham Board of Education last night approved incorporating a special kit on this disease into the regular health pro- gram aftèr being shown graphs which indicated the number of Canadians with this disease is climbing rapidly. "We can say it doesn't exist in our secondary school ... but statistics prove it does," said Glen Mcleod a board superin- tendent. Dr. Charlotte Horner of the ministry of health, who ex- plained the purpose of the special kit prepared by her ministry, said health officials hoped that by giving the facts of the disease to the students, the rapid rate of increase would slow. SLIDES SHOWN Dr. Horner showed a numb- et- of slides which are included in the kit, which depict the early warning signs of vener- eal disease as well as the possible long term effects - blindness or crippled muscles. I feel both boys and girls should have a basic knowledge of the problem and its symptoms, as well as what to do if they have the symptoms, said Dr. Horner. Trustee George Blythe questioned if the board should go one step beyond supplying information on the disease to its students and consider supplying contraceptive de- vices as well. Dr. Horner said this could lead to difficulties with parent Dr. Ian Wilson, a trustee told the board that a number of babies are born with this disease because thèir parents transmit it during conception. Dr. Horner said this could lead to difficulties with par- ents. Dr. Ian Wilson, a trustee, told the board that a number of babies are born with this disease because their parents transmit it during conception. He strongly urged the board to accept the recommendation of both the ministries of health curriculum. Each class would spend four or five lessons on this subject, with individual teachers de- ciding how much of the kit they wished to use. The ministry of health has prepared 250 kits - one for each medical officer of health and one for each board of education in the province. Northumberland-Durham trustees were told last night by Director Frank Thom the board may be able to borrow a second kit from a smaller board who would not need it for a full school year because of fewer pupils.

Woodyard of Clarke Township informs us that two cases of cattle rustling have been reported in Clarke Township over the week-end. Two calves were taken off the property of Mr. Dravis, south of 401 highway and another was reported in the north of the Township. Reeve Woodyard states cattle farmers would be advised to check their herds especially those in out-of-the-way places.

The Board also pointed out that the two developments were now in agricultural zones having conservation possibilties. 'ne Board aiso rejected two applications from Home Smith Properties Ltd. One application was to establish a convience store at the entr- ance to their development and another was for another home at the east entrance into the sub-division. The board did- approve the rezoning of ten acres for Mr. Robert Stephenson from Agri- culture to Industrial for use as a scrap yard. Mr. Stephenson had asked for the rezoning of thirty acres but the Board reduced this to ten. Mr. Stephenson wishes to establish his present yard on property south of 401 highway. The Board felt that the yard would not be so obnoxiou in the new area. There is considerable residential development near the nresent site. The Planning Board also gave tentative approval to a subdivision development on Mr. L. Payne's property south east at Newtonville. The development in its first stage would include some eighty lots with more to develop in the future. The proposal requires a communal or municipal sup- ply of water which it was stated the developer was agreeable to construct within the area for the develoDment. The board felt that some consideration should now be given in regards a complete municipal supply of water for Newtonville. The Board pass- ed a resolution recommending to council that their engineers prepare a feasibility study for a water supply for the whole of the hamlet of Newtonville. The sub-division proposal was given tentative approval. Council to pass new mosport by-law 1
