The debenture request came from Port Perry, and is for $20.000 to be used for improvements to hydro faci- ities here. Port Perry council decided to borrow the money on December 11, but since re- gional council is now respon- sible for all debenture issues within Durham, the decision had to be passed onto the region for final action. In past council discussions the region has decided that it has no choice but to issue such debentures for work approved in 1973 by local councils when required to do so. There is little doubt Port Perry Hydro's $20,000 will be borrowed. The local hydro commis- sion is engaged in an improv- ment program which 'will cost about $70,500 altogether. The commission has about $50.000 in its funds. so only a small portion of the total cost will be borrowed. The work description as submitted by the commis- sion. and approved by the Ontario Municipal Board calls for about $28,000 worth of new lines. Half of the new lines will be underground. The price of new transfor- mers is estimated at $8,000; the purchase of meters at $500: and the purchase of water heaters at $10,000. The meters will be resold to developers who are re- quired by By-Law to buy a meter from the municipality for each new house they build. Water heaters are sold or rented to the public. According to the estimates dusk to dawn street lighting improvements will cost $1.000. The $20,000 being raised through debentures will pay for the new hydro storage building recently construct- ed on the 7th concession of Reach.

Nothing 'worked. They called the elevator company. It was New Year's Day. A recorded message.- Tension grew. It was like a wake. Pregnant woman trapped in stalled elevator After. nearly an hour and a half, m son-in-law. one of the trappers, had an idea. There was a small space at the bottom of their elgyator car, but Kim, with her bulging belly. couldn't get through it. There was a little more room at the top. If they could get through, from one elevator car to the other, maybe . . . The rescuers found a panel between the elevator cars. it was removed. The electri- cian was skinny. He was hoisted up and crawled through the hole. A ladder was hoisted and passed to him. Silence. After a few minutes of this, the rescuers started pounding the wall and shouting. No answer. Panic. They were just about to call the fire department when the kids and the electrician walked down the stairs, into the_ lobby. -- charged with motor vehicle offences. Using the ladder, they had climbed out of the elevator and crawled through that just-big-enough hole, onto\the second floor., Needless to say, joy reigned supreme. Laughing and hugging and kissing. Nobody had gone haywire in a nasty situation. The kids had not panicked. In fact, Kim sat on the floor and almost went to sleep. My wife kept her head, through an hour and a half of mental anguish. My brother-in-law came out feeling like Horatius at the bridge. ' Well, all turned out fine. But the third ring of the circus was supplied to my wife. First day the baby was home, she was going up to see him, and her own child. A young woman had thrown herself in front of a subway train, and it took my wife three hours to get there. Why can't we have a grandchild without all this fooferaw? Oh, well. At least, the first time he crosses the border into the States, when he's about sixteen, and one of those snarly U.S. immigration officers says, Where were you born?" he won't have to answer, "Duh, in an elevator."
