More than 30 special cars were on display for "Gary Archer Night." WESTON‘s OWN WEEKLY PAPER Benedict‘s _ school, the of the famil neighborhood The dog was in the Gould driveâ€" way when the speeding westâ€" bound car struck him. Check of the vehicle‘s tire marks indicates that the driver may have expectâ€" ed Pat to dash out into the road; the car had apparently swerved ento the driveway with the exâ€" pectation of byâ€"passing the aniâ€" mal. dent insist._that the driver was aware that the dog had been Grieving for his pet is sevenâ€" yearâ€"old Ricky Gould, who was born just one day before Pat, on March 16, 1953. Always inseparâ€" wble, boy and dog were almost side by side when Pat was killed. struck. However, the vehicle, a gray and maroon Ford, either a 1952 or 1954, according to witâ€" messes, made no effort to stop. With the afd of an almost comâ€" plete license number police have launched an intensive search for the car, which is believed to beâ€" long to a resident of the Mapfte Leaf district. an unusually "traffic conscious" animal. Even as a puppy he "rode herd" on his master, young Ricky, when the two were playâ€" ing together on the Gould‘s front lawn. If young Ricky started toâ€" ward the roadway he would bark loundly and place himself beâ€" tween the boy and the road. Pat was appropriately named since he was born on St. Patâ€" rick‘s Day in 1953 _ Part setter, part spaniel and all dog, he was Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Gould, who ars thankful that their son Richard, who was playing with a reighborhood friend within a few feet of the spot where the dog was killed, was spared, are anâ€" xious to identfy the driver of the "hitâ€"andâ€"run" car. "It‘s not a matter of revenge," Mr. Gould said. "The fact that the victim was a dog is merely incidental. The heartlessness of the driver in speeding away withâ€" out stopping to aid his victim could become a pattern with more terrible consequences if the next is a human being." Meanwhile, Ricky, inconsolable in his grief, wonders why the docâ€" tors could not heal Pat‘s wounds and send him home again. Those who witnessed the acciâ€" family but of the entire Cimes and Guiide One letter from the Transport claimed that that body had no jurisdiction in the matter. The second communication was from the Department of National Deâ€" fence. In it, the Department advised Mrs. Walker that perâ€" mission to use the Downsview Airport had been refused to the Flying Club. In the closing paraâ€" graph of the letter it was stated that ‘"it is the considered policy of this department (D.N.D.) that flying operations by civilian groups on or adjacent to R.C.A.F. flying facilities are not in the national interest and would not be permitted except in isolated and unusual cireumstances." Mrs. Walker cited her work in conjunction with the ratepayers‘ groups in the vicinity of the Airâ€" port as the reasons for her conâ€" cern over the recent move by the Flying Club to obtain the sanction of North York council for its transfer to Downsview from the existing base at Malton. "We fought this issue out more than a year ago," she said. "We obtained a forthright statement from the defence department that the Flying Club‘s application had heen rejected. The fact that the area around the Airport had been so densely populated was our best argument at that time. Today, there are many more homes and residents in the area. Our arguments have been strengâ€" thoned by recent developments. That‘s why I can‘t help wonderâ€" ing why the Flying Club could reasonably expect us to, reverse a stand we took a year ago Emphasizing her approval of the Toronto Flying Club and its operations, Mrs. Walker claimed that the Club was "unreasonable" in asking Downsview residents to accept the nuisance, discomfort and "possible danger, however remote, of accidents endangering residents" of greatly expanded weekend use of the Downsview Airport. "One Flying Club offiâ€" cial stated that Downsview Airâ€" pirt would make it possible for Club members to practice flying without the inconvenience of long tiring bus rides to such places as Maple," Mrs. Walker said. . "It is our contention now, as it was more than a year ago, that the comfort, convenience and safety of tens of thousands should not be sacrificed for the comfort of a few." 25% Rise In Incinerator Charges Agreement to pay $5 per ton for use of garbage disposal facilâ€" ities‘ at North York‘s Ingram incinerator was voted by Weston Council on Monday. The 25% increase over the previous price of $4 per ton reflects the increased operating costs, principally higher wage rates, in North York‘s works deâ€" partment. The new contract is for a twoâ€"year term. On the suggestion of Councillor Bert Wood, Weston‘s works deâ€" partment will make maximum useâ€"‘in good weather"â€"of the Inflammable Disposal Co. faciliâ€" ties. The charge at the private disposal site is $1.25 per ton. However, access to the site is difficult in bad weather, Councilâ€" ler Wood admitted. Rexdale Woman Wins Prize For Knitted Dress Mrs. Rose Gardner of 5 Arborâ€" dell, Rexdale, was among those receiving cash awards in the "homecraft" division of the anâ€" nual handicraft competition held in conjunetion with the Canadian National Exhibition.

To Send Own Staff To Schools Commenting on the recent price increase of student TTC fares and identification â€" cards. chairman of the North York Board of Education, Frank Watâ€" son, said that he realized that the Board was not in a position to question this facet of the issue. Mr. Watson stated he was strongly against any measure that would invoke the school principals.)n.the sales of tickets and ‘student cards. Some method will have to be worked out whereâ€" by the TTC will look after all the sales, he remarked. Trustee Isobel Walker, agreeâ€" ing in principle with Mr. Watâ€" son‘s opinion, now costing $2 instead of $1, will have to be issued in some manner in order not to put the students to the iuch greater expense of paying adult fares. Even if it meant designating _ to _ somebody the function of selling the cards it would be much cheaper for the students in the long run. Sainsbury Asks If Law Is Engraved Or Drafted The TTC in their letter to the Board agreed to send officials to individual schools for the purâ€" pose of handling all the sales. However, a staff member will have to be present at the time of the issuance of identification cards in order to identify the students. Acting on Trustee Ray Hoag‘s suggestion, the Board will send another request to the TTC for the extension of the time period, from 4.30 to 5.30 p.m., for the use of student tickets. Trustee Hoag pointed out that students are forced to curtail their extraâ€" curricular activities because of the extra expense involved in paying adult transportation fares.

At one time the section had been earmarked for restricted singleâ€"family residenâ€" tial classification. The Metro plan calls for multiple residenâ€" tial zoning, the Mayor said. According to Councillor Sainsâ€" bury, the applicants for rezoning were anxious to obtain a clearâ€" cut classification of their Jane street property. If they proâ€" ceeded to erect commercial struc= tures in a section which ultimately was zoned for apartments they would be classed as "nonâ€"conâ€" forming", which status limits their possibilities of reâ€"sale, he claimed. Following discussion of the reâ€" zoning request, the council voted to direct the clerk to advise the applicants that no legal barriers presently exist to the construc= tion of commercial buildings on the site.
