Mr. Cafik said he decided to run with some reluctance. The reluctance is because of the narrow margins he has won his federal seat by in the last two election. One year ago the 44 year old M.P. retained his seat by 4 votes after a number of recounts. He said he is reluctant to disappoint the faithful supporters who worked to keep him in the federal parliament. Yatch club Mr. Cafik indicated that he 'may hold on to his Ottawa seat for a while, even if he wins the provin- cial leadership. The Ontario Liberal Party will decide the leadership issue at a convention in Toronto on October 28. Mr. Cafik intends to spend about $20,000 on his campaign over the next three weeks. One'plank in his campaign will likely be based on his opposition to regional gov- ernment. preparing to move by next spring The Port Perry Yatch Club informed the October 2 meeting of council that it is proceeding with its plans to move to a new site north of Birds Eye Centre by next spring. The club presently is located in the middle of Palmer Park. It was to have "moved in time for the season which has just ended, but last winter council gave it a one year extension. Last week the club told council that most of its members have viewed the site proposed and found it suitable. In a letter club officials said they are having a site plan drawn up which will include dredging, construc- tion of a retaining wall, marine railway and washrooms. The letter said the development would be done in stages over the next few years. The Yatch club hopes to begin work on dredging and the retaining wall this fall, and to start developing the "southern 300 feet," of the property by next spring. ' It was explained that 32 members of the club have pledged a substantial amount of money each to provide immediate financing. Long term loans of up to $50,000 will be obtained to complete the project. The land is on the old railway right of way which is owned by the Village of Port Pery. The club will lease the land from council. Ad rates up We like to bring to the attention of Star. readers and adver- tisers the new classi- fied advertising rates on page 10.

Port Perry outside workers join C.U.P.E. labour union Port Perry's five member works department crew has . become part of the giant Canadian Union of Public Employees. Union organizer D.R. Lindsay, who works out of CUPE's Peterborough office told the STAR that the Ontario Labour Relations Board approved certifi- cation of the workers on October 2, and that their union affiliation becomes official as soon as the certi- ficate is issued by Queens Park. Mr. Lindsay said it usually takes about a week to ten days for a certificate to be issued. The union organizer said that workers will probably continue to live up to the present non union agree- ment with Port Thieves net over $2,000 Thieves broke into Ballard Lumber's warehouse on Scugog Street sometime Sunday or early Monday morning and made off with about $2,000 worth of power tools.

Members of the new Scugog council, which takes office January 1, will be approached and asked to accept the workers union status voluntarily, Mr. Lindsay said. If council does not volunteer to negotiations with the union, "there are legal steps we can take," said Mr. Lindsay. Mr. Lindsay explained that the new union members will have the right to decide among themselves whether they want to form their own local here, or join an exist- ing local perhaps in Oshawa. A few months ago Reach Township council included a stipulation in its brief on regional government that CUPE not be certified as bargaining agent for Reach employees. However, only one member of that Reach council will sit on the new ~Sougeg council. Port Perry's employees were granted an increase in pay last January. A few weeks later they returned to council and pointed out that, even with the raise, they were still making less than employees of neighbouring municipalities so council granted their request for a second raise. Labourers her now get $160 a week. In past months councillor Grant McDermott has expressed some dissatisfac- tion with the work done by the employees, but the reeve and other council members have kept quiet publicly, although it was no secret (continued on page 20) Developer told to clean water lot of silt Port Perry council has written to local developer Tony Ceasaroni and told him to clean up, 'promptly' silt that has found its way into Lake Scugog near property owned by Mr. Ceasaroni's Port Perry Developments Ltd. Council believes the silt problem is the result of fill dumped in the area by the developer. : Originally councillor Grant McDermott had sug- gested that the closest con- servation authority be asked to have the area cleaned up by the developer. This led Reeve Kenny to suggest that council do its own ordering, rather than ask someone else to do it for council. " The conservation author- ity and the Trent Waterways authority will be informed of the problem and of councils concern, and will be asked to help enforce the clean up order.
