Letter to The Editor Dear Johnny: I have read with great interest, interest, in the August 24th issue issue of your paper, that councillor councillor Ann Cowman, along with others, has signified her intention to run for the office of Mayor in the forthcoming municipal election. Included among the various various issues that she will focus upon, if elected, will be a review review of the Town of Newcastle Newcastle name, and the possible implications if it is to be altered. altered. If after a decade of being smothered under the appellation appellation Town of Newcastle, steps could be taken to remedy remedy this misnomer, with all of its/accompanying mix-ups :ând!.finistrations,, and Bow- mànville retain its original name, 1 r ;this- would be wel-\ come news Fm sure. Where is this Town of Newcastle, anyway? Has anyone visited it? Do our road signs give us a clue as to its whereabouts?. How about visitors? Can they find what they are looking for? Let's hope that this piece of foolishness, which is probably probably the brain-child of one of our councillors in regional government will be altered, and that once again we are known as BOWMANVILLB. Thank you for giving me space to say what I think.
