T/w theme, this is the firsi ycar jôr a theme, focuses on our new Ir oquois Park anci you can mean mouth tlhc Mayor for a lot of things he has and hasnt' donc but by gosh he got us our Iroquois Park and notv that the arena lis almost flnislzed we're aiso weli on our way to getting a vwimming pool complex. Dear Sir: In the last Federal Elec- tion at least 65%. of the Canadian voters did not sup- port the P.C. and did not want to buy Mr. Stanfields Wage and Price Control idea. According to Mr. Kainins in his Election Post Mortem of July 17 in the Whitby Free Press, this 65% of Canada were flot only "irresponsible" but also "stupid". That is quite a statement to make and to print and 1 want to voice a sharp protest to Mr. Kaînins and to the Editor (for prining this) for such unfounded insults. Who is this Mr. Kains that he thinks he has the right to cail the majority of Canada irrespon- sible and stupid. Your paper calîs itself the "Free Press" but does that include the right to insult people because this 65% of Canada did not go along with a Wage and The thousands of children of Whitby wiIl finally have an aena to skate on this winter-...or wfll they? A group of 15 adults claiming to be a reincarna- tion of the "Whitby Dunlop" hockey team are greedily try- ing to make ice time where none exists. Local minor sports organizations and pub- lic skating groups wiil be deprived of time unless citi- zens become more concerrned with non-residents taking ad- vantage of facilities that we, the tax-paying public, so des- perately need for the youth of our town. We have been patiently waiting for our new aena and I sincerely hope that the people of this town won't be cheated out of skat- ing this winter. The "Senior A" team are womking men with their own private method of transport- ation and there are at least 10 aenas within a 12 mile radius of Whitby. You and I are paying for the new arena and we have the right to object strenuously when a few people that don't pay taxes in this town move in and are so overpowering that they influence members of "Town Councl" to reverse their original decision of "nu time for Sm. A". Price Control systemn that has elsewhere proven to be a vemy doubtful. May we read your apology in your next edition? John Jager 150 Thickson Rd. N. Whitby. EDITORS NOTE: Newspaper co/umnisîs voice their own opinions and flot necessaril), the opinions of thre newspapers they are writing for. For us to change the intent' of KaInins' col- umn, wouid be the same as changing or re-writing your icuter and tirai would certain- ly infringe upon your night (and his) to express your own unadulterated opinions. Ironically, editorially we dis- agree with Mr. Kaîninis tsing the terms "irresponsibie "and "stupid'. but we cati t apol- ogize for his righî f0o use tcm.. Our main concemn should be to keep the children occ- upied in a healthy environ- ment- and off the streets. The mayor and town counicil are more worried about 15 adults than the thousands of youths and the Young at heart that enjoy skating and minor sports. Since counicil doesn't seem to be able to make firm decisions, perhaps a petition at council1 meeting July 29 at 8:00 p.m. wîi show our representatives that Whitby residents have waited long enough for an aena and we don't want to be barred from using it! SThe mayor and councillors are voted into office to care for the needs of the people of Whitby - not for Toronto residents!

New 'HimNeighbour, Hostess Whitby arnd Brooklin area hospitality got another boost with the announcement that Mrs. Grace Coe has been named 'Hî-Neighbour' hostess for this town. Hi-Neighbour, an ail Canadian firm with headquarters. in Calgary, is des- îgned to make new-comers to a town feel welcome and at home, and to acquaint themn with points of interest, places of business and peculiarities of the town; as well as to help solve any problems they may have encountered. Mrs. Coe, a resident of Whitby- for several years, says that the Hi-Neighbour service is similar to the old custom of neighbourly teas which have largely been dropped in the hustle and bustle of a modemn society. Often,newcomers have a& hard tîme getting to know*.people àn:d' becoming accustomned to the town, she says,. and the job of Hi- Neighbour is to alleviate this difficulty.« Local sponsors are co-operating with the Hi-Neighbour programn, and in aIl cases provide gift *certificates which are to be presented to newcomers. As well as the certificates, Mrs. Coe takes along a kit containing information on everything, from hardware to hairdos.' Included is a letter from -the Mayor and the Chamber of Commerce, and Mrs. Coe noted that she cari provide information'on just about anything in Whitby, including a brief history of the town, its churches, service organizations and clubs. The local hostess was born in Downsview and lived most of her life in the Toronto area where she was employed as secretary in a civil engineering firmn. An ardent Natura- list, Camnera Enthusiast and Artist, Mrs. Coe, since coming to this area has served as Director, Secretary and Photo-. grapher for the Brooklin Horticultural Society and is a memnber of the Whitby Arts Club and the Federation of Ontario Naturalists, as well as the Oshawa Garden Club. * J The Corporation of the TOWN 0F WHITBY' CONSTRUCTION 0F SIDEWALKS ON PALMERSTON AVENUE Take notice that: 1.
