Despîte every possible reason againat, except pleasing votera, the commission is expected to submit a report te the On- tario Cabinet suggesting the current Exhibition Stadium site or thte Woodbine Race Track lands for thte domed Sladium. It is another case of the provincial goverment itaving made a prior decision and titen aetting up a commission headed by a personel friend and poitical crony of Bil Davis to corne up witb 'suggestions" on sn issue. The Halton site aloog with thte two sites te Mississauga had far more going for them titan the final two commission choices. Transportation, ceep tend, population drawing poweer; they al eued the two Metropolitan Tonte sites. Thte final selection is, and wss, wbo would be most plessed; and poritapo, we sbould add itow many would be mnst piessed. Thte Metro Toronte ares is not cast in Tory blue like Missis- saz or most of Halton. For every pleased voter here teere are Thie coce thon, whezs based on tee Davis bottem lime, is Politica set up the commission, politica wlll finally decide on Exhibition Place, and politica wil decide juat how much extra in provincial revenues we will psy so tee people in Toronte cao watch tee play. Knocking don ors was wrongmove Milten reaidents were given a -omail, and it must be emphasized only a small pat on tee back, for their efforis in lat yesr's United Way campaigo. Thte 260 volunteers who porticipoted ta tee monte long campoigo dramatically insproved tee response to teeir request for money-a itel of $55000 waa raisd or 49 per cent more titan tee previons yesr's fundraising drive. But United Way manager Heateer Smith of Oakville, is net hapy wite tee people of Milton. Toequote, "tbere w- sJt nesrlyas many donors as we should have nad .. . onasaîêone te 10, volunteerism is tWo in this community.. ., Mrs. Smth aeems te feel that ta up to ber te dctate exactly how much residenis should be given, neyer mted sehat they have already done. Titis tewn has sitosn tremendous community spirit in a grest number of ways, porhapo tee most notewortey being tee Milton District Hospital Exponsion Fund. Do nt forget, Mrs. Smith, it wss teis comxnunity miicit raised $7000 te ensure test every needy family enjoyed a Christmas dinner and te ys, and it mas not because citizens were hadgered or made te feel guilty. tergneaimnero Titis is a tewn that dons not hstt oognz l anro money raising ventures te itelp a young boy received tee costiy trestmnent test il keep bim alive and asetat wite travel ex- penses for is family te tee United States mitere lie must go te get sucit medication.

So porhapo, Mrs. Smite sbould take s moment te look around bier and see exactly bow much thtis community has done te itelp out escb oteer. WiUI CONWT.
