CHRIS ALLEN ALUMINUM 985-3747 - The Durham officers have Durham Region Police officially assumed law enforcement responsibilities in Brock Township on June 1, the final phase of a Region- wide takeover which began when Durham was formed six years ago. With workmen still putting the final touches inside and outside, 43 officers took occupancy Saturday of a brand new two-storey build- ing in Sunderland.

John Kay, the manpower compliment of 26 Division will include three sergeants, 36 constables, a youth service detective, a safety officer, a criminal investigation detective and a civilian office worker.
