111.8 I LINE WITH KITCHINIR Policy of touring down re- quests for grants. (Kitchener Continued on Page 2) Frankly we think the bylaw is a good thought, even if it was intimated that it would break up the weekly gab fest between council members " ter each meeting. The new bylaw actually was aimed at loitering on the streets of this city and "a have a fair amount of it, t' ngs both day and night fr, Amps of young men make it embar- rassing for women to pass and if some of them have been hitting the grog, for adults of both sexes. 7here is not real reason for putting up with this condition. Most cities, many of them lar- ger than Waterloo have pass- ed bylaws prohibiting such antics. If people want to gath er. let them do it insides, al. though again, there are street gatherings and street gather- ings. An original bylaw, no doubt drawn up by council members who allowed this atrocity, stat es that all racing and noise must cease at 11 pan.
