POPPI 00000000000000 In County A 0.53 mill increase over last year's mill rate is featured in Ontario County's budget for 1964. Outlined to County Council Wednesday by Finance Com- mittee 'Chairman W. H, Gould, the budget estimates this year's total County expenditure at $2,973,911. Included in this sum are General Fund, $952,636, and Fairview Lodge, $461,025, with $1,560,350 allotted for pro- jected Roads. and Bridges ex- penditures. The 1964 mill rate of 12.72 per cent has been upped slightly from last year's 12.19 figure to compensate for what Committee Chairman Gould termed "a general increase in equalized assessment and a salary revi- sions." Taxes for 1964 are to be le- vied on an equalized assessment of $104,2655,847. (This figure is based on the September 1962 assessment figure, equalized June, 1963). Cost of the new County Buildings and of Devel- opment Road projects were omitted from the summary of expenditures. County Grants, (Hospital, Li- brary, Retarded Children's As- sociation and Emergency Mea. sures Organization) accounted for $195,930 of the total amount to be levied under General Funds. Deduction of a $28,909 1963 surplus and an estimated revenue of $307,626 from the remainder of the General Funds estimate left $420,071 to be otherwise levied for this pur- pose. : The breakdown of General Fund expenditures was as fol- lows: Public Welfare, including Hospital grants, Training Schools, Welfare Grants, Indi- gent Hospitalization and Child Welfare; $364,425, a $62,144 in- crease over last year's figure. (Included in this amount was an estimated $49,608 rise in Child Welfare costs. Clerk- Treasurer Bill Manning explain- ed the item to Council, stating that the number of abandoned children from the county being cared for at County expense by various Children's Aids through out Ontario had risen consider- ably in the past year.) General Government »includ- ing executive, legislative and administrative costs will ae- count for an estimated $169,158 expenditure, a $66,521 increase from last year's expenses in this department.

A total of $270,609 was spent on this item in 1963, A total of $47,000 is marked down under Debt, Charges (bank interest and discount on current taxes), while Registry Office expenses are estimated at $41,617, a $7,108 increase. The budgeter's "bugbear," Miscellaneous, will account for a planned $33,725 of County ex- penditures. Under this head- ing are: Agricultural, Farm Pond and Library Grants, as well as Oshawa's share of the Coroners' Investigations Grant and Jail Grant. Also budgeted for under this heading are a $8,000 expendi- ture for reforestation (nothing was spent for. this purpose in 1963) and a $1,500 for Indus- trial and Tourist Development, raised $1,300 from the last fig- ure. ; Providing a good proportion of the estimated $307,625 total revenue (up - $89,054 from the actual 1963 income) will be the City of Oshawa, which will pay the County a projected sum of $129,172 for such services as General Administration, Court House, Jail and Registry Office facilities. Revenue from the City in 1963 was $111,222, - Other sources of income: the Province of Ontario, $99,033; Local Municipalities, $41,070, and Miscellaneous, $38,350. Seagrave Ball Season Opens On May 2nd, 1964 It should be pretty obvious to one and all these days, that the 'ball season is just around the corner. ' Only time will tell 'whether this year's: editors of the "Angels" will match that of the 63 club. Although this year's team is moving up to bantam ball, we shouldn't expect too much of this year's team. Start May 2nd Practice sessions for the Sea- grave "Angels" start on Satur- day, May 2nd at 2.30 p.m. Pitching is the one department where the "Angels". could ap- pear strong. They'll have to be especially deep, if the club is to survive the number of games which stand in front of them.

With all thoughts pointing to June 27th at Pres- ton, Ontario, this bantam tour- nament should serve as a stepping stone in finding out, just how we'll fair against big- ger opposition, and to asses our chances in 0.A.S.A. playoffs. The pitching will have to play | a big part in this year's club. And I feel that Bill Wanamaker (10-2), Doug Hughes 8-7, along with newcomer Jim Nightin- gale, we should be stronger as Bill and Doug have gained a year of confidence and experi- ence. This should allow us the opportunity, and time, to work Jim in slowly. Speed - Agressiveness - [ Determination The Angels this year, have a year's of confidence in '63. This year's club, have a corral of speedsters who are enough to make an evening of softball, real exciting, in fact, without too much urging either. Speed, | agressiveness, determina tio n were our main weapons last year. And this year, we have no less than eight boys (Ray Whitfield, Ronald Crosier, Don- ald Harper, Eugene Hurst, Billy Wanamaker and Doug Hughes) PORT PERRY STAR, THURSDAY, APRIL 2nd, 1964 -- 3 CUE Senior Citizens Pleased to report another very successful euchre held at the Citizen's Hall, Port Perry, on Saturday, March 28th. 17 tables were set up and progres- sive euchre once again enjoyed by all who attended, The usual tasty lunch was served by a group of club members.
