Meinebr of the Ontario Weekly NewspaperAssoc, A Logical Approach The Chamber of Commerce in seeking an underpass from lighway 115 mbt the Village of Orono is now about to retrace its steps and institute a logical procedure te obtain this end. In the first instance the Ohainber plunged head-long into te proposal with a letter to tle Minister of tle De- partment of Highways. It was quite evident that this would fail due to a number of reasons and one especiallybeing tle fact that the Police Trustees and thc Department,lad, last year, agrecd upon a plan to make some changes te botI th1e north and south entrances. The letter from the Clamber and tle agreement with thc Police Trustees were ia conflict with one another. This in itself would deter thte Dcpartment te establi sh an under- pass especially wben it appears that they are not as yei too entluscd witl such a projeet for Orono. To gain an underpass for'Orono is going 10, take a concentrated effort by not only the CharnIer but also by tle elected representatives both of the Village and Town. slip and even tle people tlemselves. The firsi step prior to prescnting tle proposai b lite Departmeni is bo gain compîcte- agreement among the local organizations as btIcth plan dcsircd. Upon reaching Ibis plateau aI île local level an assanît can tIen be made upon lte Department., Aithougl the Department las alrcady been locally criticized in tle landling of Ibis affair they bave pre- sented some logical points. Ia cstablishing an underpass m tIcth Village witb tle purpose of safe-guarding travellers entering and exil- ing from Orono tley point out laI il would be ýdesirable to close tle cxisting - entrances .onto Uiglway 115. This seems a logical proposal for tle Department would be rcmiss if tley establisbed wlat is bo be a safe entrance but left open entrances into *Orono wlicl are claimcd tb le.unsafe and a menace te îhe travelling public'. This point, a sound one on thle part of the Depirt ment, could raise a problern locally la gainingfuli support from bhc inlabitants. The old adage ,womid bold truc. . . . "«You can't bave your cake and cal it 10." But how many would want 10 try? The nature of man is oflen 10 follow lte course of least resistance -and, with the f ive exils out of Orono being reduced bo two, could stant a considerable cry. 0f course there are engineering problems la estab- lishing an undcrpass mbt Orono but these can be resolved. Stili, lowever, another point arises whicl must be giveni consideration by the local organizations, and Ibis, is the route tîrougl the Village if only one entranice is to remain. Wbat streel is tle logical one bo carry all e traffic con- versing, intoOrono? TIc proposai' cannot, be -resolved overîigî-t and above nîl il needs a good majority in support.

There is an urgent need for such vcfreshing plain ialk, whicl does not spare the high-and-:nighty.

Cobourg took the game by a score or 3-0. Cobourg's runs came one in the fourtl and two in the fifîl. Eri Cobbledick in pitchîng his first game of basebail, turned in a remarkable performance ai- lowing only two bits and two walks. He also'came up with five strike outs. Eight Orono batters went down swinging with only Brian Foster- registering a hit for the local boys. l'a a previous game played with Cobourg _the, Orono boys were defeatcd 11-3. Paul Joncs pitched igît innings witl Brian P'oster pitéhing the final franile. Orono was unable to overcome tle five run burst by Cobourg in the first inning. The five lits for Orono were registered by Ted Stark, John Mathers, Brian Foster, Doug Mof- f at and Paul Jones, Stark, Moffat and Jones scored the three Or- ono runs.
