In the short range, we often forget these things. The daily battles of the dollarâ€"sign seem more imâ€" portant. But how much would we pay for them if we lost them The end of the year, though, is the usual time to take stock of the other assets we all have that can‘t be added up in dollars and cents on a balance sheet. Too many of us overlook the assets that can‘t be listed with a dollar sign; the word, you know, doesn‘t have to be spelled A$$et$. With the end of the year at hand, and a good balance sheet of both a$$et$ and assets at hand, the time has come to wish all our friends happiness for the New Year. Happy and Prosperous is the way it‘s usually put. We hope the prosperity includes not only the dollarâ€"sign assets but also the less tangâ€" ible but equally important kind. You need both for real happiness. â€" & In every firm there is an annual w inventory, or stocktaking time. Almost j everybody drops what they‘re doing and walks around counting every seat cushion and penâ€" cil stub and then the accountants add it up and you‘ve got your "assets". , Sometimes inventory time is at the end of Decemâ€" ber, often it‘s at the end of some other month.

In it Brahms‘ metrical peculiarities are especially well clarified by Walter‘s thythmical reading and there is once more a rousing finale â€" spirited, wholesome energy. Bruno Walter makes the Secâ€" ond Symphony immensely satisâ€" fying. Not only is its construcâ€" tion obviously outlined, its deâ€" tails everywhere projected with enthusiasm, but the closing pages are positively stunning in their orchestral virtuosity. _ If this review is to be helpful it is perhaps best to tackle such an imposing album movement by movement. The Symphony No. 1 in C Minor is the only work which, in parts, seems to be timidly done. The first moveâ€" ment is given its proper weight and sense pf struggle, the secâ€" ond its autumnal glow, but the third seems _ hardly _ playful enough and the fourth, taken rather slowly, misses some of the sinister menace of its introâ€" duction and joyous sunshine of its main theme. Ormandy‘s verâ€" sion is preferable. Record Reviews Maiton Land Owners Demand Damages From Government THE ORCHESTRAL MUSIC OF BRAHMS played by the N.Y. Philharmonic under Bruno Walter on 4 LP‘s, Columbia Set $Lâ€"200. The action arises from Departâ€" ment of Transport zoning reguâ€" lations which restrict height of buildings and land uses on 1,000 acres adjacent to Malton Airâ€" port. Damages are being sought by Thomas Madgett, Harry Walker and the Roberts and Dagwell Development Co, Madgett was raised on the 98â€" acre farm he works north of the airport. _ Sixteen acres of his land are within the Malton Villâ€" age limits. Walker farms 100 acres and the Roberts and Dagâ€" well firm owns 100 acres purâ€" chased for industrial developâ€" ment before the zoning regulaâ€" tions went into effect in June, 1953. Hilliard G. Chappell, Malton lawyer, representing the propâ€" erty owners, said the Departâ€" ment of Transport regulations purport to regulate land use as does a township bylaw.

Miller, LRSM Estimates Free will be done at the NEW .CANADIAN‘S SPECIALTY CO. Contract Awarded For Constructing Queensway Hosp. As requested by the respecâ€" tive trade associations, separate trade tenders were received from the mechanical and elecâ€" trical _ trades _ subâ€"contractors. Although nine electrical and six mechanical _ subâ€"tenders were received, only one of these subâ€" contractors . subsequently subâ€" mitted their trade tenders to the general contractors in comâ€" pliance with the board‘s specâ€" ifications. Construction of the hew 186â€" bed Queensway is scheduled to begin in the spring. Work on levelling of the site and installaâ€" Subject to the completion of a satisfactory contract, J. L. E. Price & Co. Ltd., 4 Collier Street, Toronto, will be awardâ€" ed a $1,500,000 contract for con: struction of the new Queensâ€" way General Hospital at the inâ€" tersection of Highway 27 and Queen Elizabeth Way. ~Following the award of this contract, announced Crawford Gordon, Jr., chairman of the Board of Governors, and W. H. Stanton, chairman of the Buildâ€" ing Committee, the subâ€"contract for the mechanical and electriâ€" cal trades will be awarded to Canadian Comstock Co. Ltd., 206 Laird Drive, Leaside. Nine general contract tenders were received, and all but one complied with the Wospital specâ€" ifications. Mr. Gordon adds that the facâ€" tors considered by the board in awarding the hospital contract included not only economy, but experience in the field of hospiâ€" tal construction and compliance with the board‘s requirements in tendering. The Tragic Overture and four of the Hungarian Dances are of less consequence than the major works, but round out the sei until the cup overflows, Comâ€" paring thisyset to the most worthy competition, the Toscanâ€" ini versions, it seems that Bruno Walter is less concerned to give a razorâ€"sharpblueprint of each score than to communicate its moods of joy, gravity or courâ€" ageous conquest. In the Variaâ€" tions on a Theme of Haydn and in the Second Symphony I am sure he has outstripped all comâ€" petition and his reputation for romantic readings should not be construed to imply any lack of masculinity. But his genial way with the musicians has elicited their fullest coâ€"operation. Selâ€" dom has the New York Philâ€" harmonic sounded better. Addâ€" ed in the set is a 10" LP of some actual rehearsal "takes" which give a unique insight of: Walter‘s _ methods. â€" Recorded sound is nearly always of the highest quality and never inâ€" adequate. Whoever got this alâ€" bum for Christmas should be immensely. pleased. f About 1,000 acres are regulatâ€" ed by the Transport Department ruling but a large portion is beâ€" ing expropriated for extension of «the airport. Many more farmâ€" ers farther north will be affected after the airport is enlarged. More Canadians follow Clyde Gilmour‘s reviews ‘of movies than any other film critic in the country. Like a baseball umpire, his opinions are not always shared by the public, but "he calls them as he sees them‘"; if a movie is bad he says so, and if it‘s good, he‘s the first to admit it. so stringent that they deny all industry coming in and blight the land so that it is actually useless," he said, The wistful, yet striving first movement of the Fourth Symâ€" phony is played, like nearly all Walter‘s Brahms, so that the hearer really knows what is goâ€" ing on, and where he differs from other readings the score usually backs him up. The horns here, and all through the set are truly memorable, as are the strings. The Academic Festival Overâ€" ture is much as Brahms intendâ€" ed it, not so academic as festive and goodâ€"humoured. Real estate appraisers report that the value of the Walker and Roberts and Dagwell propâ€" erties has been reduced from $2,650 an acre to $200 an acre. Damages of $2,450 an acre will be sought. The Madgett property has not yet been appraised. Three people were arranging sale of their land for industrial use, but when the industrialists saw the Transport Department regulations they were no longer interested, Mr. Chappell said. "Property owners maintain that if the Transport Departâ€" ment wants to zone land that viciously they should buy it and then try to resell it." His Reviews Followed By Many If not completed before June 10th, the area will have to be anltivated and seeded in Sepâ€" tember. Since then however, things have been considerably brighter. The field was successfully clearâ€" ed of gravel and debris and plans are being laid to carry on with the athletic field, reloâ€" cating the tennis club and also turfing the area where the lacâ€" rosse box wis located. The athletic field in the proâ€" posed plan ‘will be Approxiâ€" mately seven and one â€" half acres, not including the arena parking lot. Proposed plans inâ€" clude playing areas for tennis, hardball, rugby, softball and alâ€" so the quarter mile track. Work to be done includes checking the ground, heights, and drawing in topsoil. If this is done by May 10 the committee hopes to seed again. If comâ€" pleted any later than May 10. the area will be seeded again. tion of roads, sewage and water ‘ services has been going ahead for the last two months A $20,â€" | 000 contract for this work was | awarded to a community firm,| Scott and Jackson. . s (Continued from Page 1) sets ‘of bleacher seats, and two buildings (dressing rooms at the lacrosse box).
