Maintaining that the teams and patrons from the smaller centre would get the "short end", Mayor Wesley McKersie disapproves of the possibility of a joint community vote on the auditorium question existing between Kitchener and Waterloo. Exp}'ession of his ocinion came following the approval by Ptchener city enuncil of nrenaratinn af a hy city council of preparation of a byâ€" law providing for $165,000 for erecâ€" tion of an auditorium in the big half of the Twin City. The question is expected to be approved by Kitchâ€" ener ratepayers at the coming munic:ful election. While unable to ascertain whether town council would even consider granting a vote on the joint proâ€" posal, Mayor McKersie asserted that such an arrangement would by no means alleviate the problem which has existed for several yearsâ€"that of suitable hours for practices and general accommodation. Would Cost Waterloo $33,000. _ "The chief factor in my estimation is the location of the building," he went on. "They want to know where it is going to be and how far they will have to walk or drive to get there. As far as the park is concerned, it will defeat the byâ€"law for it is not sufficiently centrally located," Ald. Sturm told The Chronicle. Referring to the suggestion in a Kitchenermewspaper reâ€" cently that a Kitchenerâ€"owned or K.â€"W. auditorium be built on Belmont Boulevard, Ald. Sturm said it was "just a move to patch up the area." Granted there is plenty of parking space, though," he laughed. . Would Not Solve Problem. «â€"___â€"_.â€"__..n......lnnnnnnnnn____. It is believed by members of the Waterloo committee that in the erection of a joint $165,000 edifice, the smaller centre would be required to contribute on a 4 to 1 basis. At this date, net cost to Waterloo would amount to approximately $33,000. _ _ _ ‘"‘These Kitchener fellows have always been "high flyers" and big spenders. They‘re always about ten steps ahead of the gate," asserted Mr. Sturm. "Kitchener city council would be wise to follow the Waterloo council in regard to economy, for their big ideas are some day going to "kick them in the pants", he declared. Ald. Sturm said that provided the arena proposed for Waterloo has a good executive and is to be built in the proper location, he firmly believed that Waterloo ratepayers would approve of the project at the municipal elections. "‘The _ original â€" estimate _ for Waterloo‘s own arena was only $45,000," one member told The Chronicde. "If we pay over twoâ€" thirds of that amount to a joint arena in Kitchener, we still won‘t have our own." he declared. Belmont Suggestion Questioned. ‘"When you‘re spending over $30,000 and having no conâ€" trol, you‘d be so much farther ahead to spend an additional $20,000 and have all the control," stated Ald. Sturm. He reâ€" ferred to the probable 4 to 1 agreement which would result in the event a joint auditorium was built, at a cost of $165,000. KITCHENER "HIGH FLYERS" Mayor George W. Gordon, of Kitchener, toda{ denied a "sugâ€" gestion" in a Kitchener newspaper that the firorosed civic auditorium might be built in the Belmont area. "I don‘t know where the suggestion (Continued on Page 3â€"No. 3) Belief that Waterloo would staunchly oppose any move to build an auditorium jointly with "highâ€"flying" Kitchener was expressed today by Ald. Herman Sturm. If Waterloo is going to assist in the building of an arena, it‘s going to be built in Waterloo and controlled by Waterloo, he asserted. 23,247 Voters In $. Waterloo This Number Eligible To Vote In Federal Byâ€"Election. MAYOR WES. McKERSIE MAINTAINS WATERLOO TEAMS GALT.â€"The preliminary voters‘ list for the South Waterloo riding federal byâ€"election which will take place November 14, shows that there are 23,247 eligible voters, according to figures released, by W. C. Woods, enumerator. It is expected, however, that when additions are completed and included in‘ the list the total will run to approximately 23,400. With election day less than two weeks away, there has been but little activity on the parts of the candiâ€" dates; It is likely, however, that the actual campaigning will get under way soon. The official nominations will be held in the Preston town hall, Monday, November 7. between 12 and 2 o‘clock in the afternoon.
