June IS, 1007 Page 3 0 BHS Bands Kick off Summer Concert Series Singer Kelly Donohue (above left) and the Bowmanville High School band, conducted by Ron Parker, are shown performing a riveting rendition of "As Time Goes By" for concert-goers last week. It was just one of several popular numbers played by the high school bands Thursday, June 12, to kick off the 1997 summer concert series at Rotary Park. Benches Mean Bucks From page 1 ving public. The signs will be covered with a sheet of plexiglass plexiglass and surrounded by a weather-resistant aluminum frame. During the discussion at the committee meeting on Monday, June 16, it was noted by Councillor Dreslinski, "I think they're horrible. They're made out of chunky pebblestone pebblestone with advertising. 1 don't think that they belong in our municipality." However, other councillors were seeing dollar signs. Councillor Larry Hannah noted Clarington would be able to take part in a program which will see the municipality getting getting money without exerting any energy. These modern-style benches benches will not be allowed in the historic downtown areas. According to the report from municipal staff, they will only be located at 12 GO Transit Bus stops in Clarington. All 12 are outside the historic downtown area of Bowmanville. The benches will provide advertising space not currently available to local business owners, said Stephen Yokes. Another point is that the municipality has veto rights regarding the advertising to be placed on the signs. The report adds: "In the event that the municipality objects to any advertising display display material, whether or not the advertising complies with those regulations and standards and is of a moral and reputable standard, the licensee agrees to remove the same within 48 hours." Councillor David Scott wasn't too keen on the benches, benches, either. He inquired about the municipality having a say on the type of advertising listed on the signs. Joseph Shaw assured the councillors present at the meeting meeting his company will see to it that the advertising is not of questionable taste. In a non-recorded vole, Councillors Scott and Dreslinski, voted against the benches. Councillors will make their final decision on the matter at a full meeting of Clarington Council Monday night, June 23. From page 1 sound like a horrendous thing, but Taylor says this issue has "angered and disgusted disgusted me beyond any thing else. "What kind of people would walk around in public without their tops on?" she asked. "Will we see this when we walk down the street, or in the shopping malls or parks or at baseball games?" Taylor admitted, "I'm not against it, but put it in a place where I can decide if I want to see it or not. "If we allow this to go on, we will be upsetting a majority majority of the population," she stated. She says, "using the excuse it's too hot" is not enough to shed clothing. The bottom line of the whole issue, for her, is that of self- respect. "In France, there are designated designated beaches for those who want to go topless," Taylor said. Taylor noted she would be contacting MPP John O'Toole and probably the Mayor and Council of Clarington. She added people who disagree with the idea of women shedding their tops, should not remain quiet. Taylor wants to encourage them to lobby their government government representatives. mm; m sail*» Farm Fresh Fruits and Vegetables 40% OFJi\W^ v Vertical Blinds Up to \V> •!' Need a Windshield?
