TENNIS TOURNAMENT The North York Tennis Asso- ciation will be holding their first Annual Township Tennis Tourn- ament on September 17 and 19 at Wilmington Park, situated north of Sheppard Avenue, be- tween Wilson Heights and Bath. urst Street. One day when I met Mrs. Beanland downtown for a cup of tea, she was just mailing a letter to "The Times", to have a copy of the paper mailed to her each week. This certainly is one way to keep in touch with the activities in "The Home Town", This summer the Beam lands were also visited by Rev. and Mrs. George Vais, of North Park Presbyterian Church. Mr. and Mrs. Vais also visited Ted and Gert Bell and family in Winnipeg. The Bells are former residents of Grovedale Avenue. Being one of the nine organized clubs in the Township, Maple Leaf Tennis Club will have a few entries, although all cate. gories will not be represented. BEST WISHES Best wishes for happiness are extended to Sharon Hall, Rustic I might mention, however, that until the new swimming series begins on September 26, there will be public swimming every night, except Thursday and Sunday. For further inform- ation, call the pool office at 248. 2512 (after 7 pun.) While our family was on vaca- tion in Winnipeg, we visited the home of the Beanlands, former. ly of Pember Drive. We had a most enjoyable reunion with them. They are finding the liv.. ing a little different in a smaller city, but I'm sure, that in time they will adjust. They miss all their friends in this area, where they have lived for 15 years. Wednesday: 7:00 to 9200 p.m 9:00 to 10:00 p.m. (aduLLs only) Friday: 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. Saturday: 2:00 to 5:00 p.m 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. Our Nelson A. Boylen pool will be holding instruction classes for all ages, with public swimming as follows: _ 26, and weeks. The Fall Swimming Series has been announced by the North York Parks and Recreation De- partment to begin on September Page 12 - THE WESTON TIMES - Thursday, September 15, 1966 " I "'ri_,_:'i:),'c,',ii:'i:,i' iii:'i'ij'i'iii,ii:':t Wi-?-" your telephone ' _r"y"r" 'r': manager This is an introduction to B. E. Brackenbury, re- cently appointed manager for a group of Bell exchanges, including Weston, in Northwest Toronto. Mr. Bracken- bury replaces Earl E. Jarvis, manager here since Jan- uary 1964, who has been transferred to the eompany's headquarters staff in Montreal. A native of Ottawa where he graduated from St. Patrick’s College with a B.A. degree, Mr. Brackenbury joined the Belrs commercial department in 1956 and was with the company’s commercial and marketing de. partments in Kingston and Montreal before his transfer to Toronto in 1962 as office manager for the Northwest district. Mr. Brackenbury was supervisor, results, in the company's Toronto Area, prior to his present appoint- ment. Mt. Brackenbury resides at 22 Gleneagle Crescent, Willowdale, and has four children. In the past he has been associated with the Kinsmen and he is currently president of the Don Valley Village Community Associa- tion. His hobbies include the study of Canadiana and painting. It was mentioned in Bell Lines last month how Canadians today seem to have taken to the open road to travel and enjoy their own country during vacation time. Perhaps we are becoming a nation of people on the move, for more than ever people seem to move from one community to another, or to different homes within a community. To former generations who seemetrto look upon moving as a chore to be undertaken only when absolutely necessary we must seem like a nation of Arabs who fold our tents and steal away -- constantly if not stealthily. Why, since I have been with Bell Canada I have been transferred in my work four times. So I know many of the things that can make a move go more easily and smoothly. The telephone just about heads the list. Before a move the telephone seems in constant use, helping us to speedily check on the hundreds of last- minute chores. On arriving at our new home, the tele- phone is almost the first thing we need, to again save time establishing ourselves in a new community. Pd wear myself out running all the errands that the tele- phone does so effortlessly and quickly. We at Bell Canada know what a help the telephone can be at moving time and do our best to install your telephones as quickly as possible. Although it may take our Installer only a few min- utes to get your telephone in working order the "behind the scenes" details require much planning. Considerable work must also be done in our switching units to pro- vide you with this taken-for-granted service. Please, give us a call just as soon as you know when and where you will be moving. That way we can plan our work, clear up all the details and avoid any delay in serving you in all the details an your new address Swimming, Adult Education And Notes On Our Community will continue for 16 Registration for the North York Adult Education Pro- gramme will begin at the school of your choice on September 26, and continue on September 27 and 28, between 7:00 and 9:00 p.m. Brochures were sent home with the school children. While most of us have already enjoyed our vacations, and are once again getting back to the grind, Norm and Maxine Davis, Dorsy Drive are enjoying a mo. tor trip to Florida for two weeks, where Norm will be represent- ing his union. ADULT EDUCATION Detailed information on the subject of each course is avail- able at the school where the course is being offered, and may Sympathy is also extended to Mrs. Stephanie Pytlowana, Blue Springs Road, in the loss of her mother, quite suddenly two weeks ago. Our sympathy is extended to the family of Dorion Lash, Keele Street, who was killed in an accident near his home on Sat- urday September 10. I was very pleased to learn that Mrs. George Halligan, Rus- tic Road has recovered from major surgery, and is now at home with her family. Fred Hutchinson, Falstaff Av- enue, was hospitalized for surg- ery during the summer, and he is expected to return to his teach- ing position very shortly.

Charles Goodfellow, Chairman of the planning board, repeated- ly stressed that the plan had yet to be approved although he did not say how the home own- ers of the area could express their opinion one way or another. York Township, he said, had "the finest Planning Board in Metro." This statement was greeted with booing and laugh- ter. Then--'Khtt out the political speech-get on with it!" He did. The Consulting Engineer pro- ceeded to assure the audience that the rezoning definitely did not mean low-cost housing. He called the plan "ambitious in regards to time" and claimed there would be no aggravation of the polution problem. A mem- But he did promise that the Planning Board would only allow high-rise apartments in the areas which have sufficient parks, commercial areas, main highways, public utilities and schools.

Some of the audience were rather skeptical of these prom- ises but Goodfel1ow reassured them by lambasting reporters for stretching the facts of the matter and looking for scandal. He said that what had been written in the papers was “far from the truth." In addition, he said that the position of the then remaining residential areas would be im- proved ie. parks and public utilities would be improved.

"They didnt ask the people who ob. jected or who didn't," he com- plained. "It was the most ridicu- lous planning meeting I've ever attended." He threatened to in- form the Ontario Municipal Board of its terrible handling. Another member of the Rate- payers' Association, Charles Walsh, said that the meeting was a "Snowjob." Well. V " New Dawn For City of North York” Reeve’s Description of Civic Centre Slowly but steadily, since liek. ing former Reeve Norman Good- head in the last election, Reeve Service has been pulling to- gether the strings needed to make the $100 million civic core of North York a fact in- stead of a fable. Now all he needs is Metro's word that the proposed Yonge St. subway will be extended as "This is not a trial. We are not a jury. We are not a judge," pleaded Goodfellow. His gavel soon rapped down the meeting was over. _ _ Reeve James Service’s dream of North York duplicating To. ronto’s Nathan Philips Square complex came a step closer to reality this week when he an- nounced that the township has acquired an 18-acre tract of land to start the civic centre ball rolling. ber of the audience asked if the home owners would pay for the additional sewers while the con- tractors got the benefit. Before Goodfellow could intercede, Bousfield answered "Yea." When the Planning Board Chairman began to explain that a by-law forcing the contractors to pay would be passed in 1967, laugh- ter rippled through the audience. Another point for audience participation was Reeve Jack Mould's reply that there was nothing in the Planning Act about taking a vote on whether this plan ought to be implement- ed. This came as quite a shock to the audience to whom Good- fellow had repeatedly said that the plan had not yet been ap- proved. All of this was too much for Neville Shute, President of the York Ratepayers' Association. He rose to his feet and asked that the plan be more fully out. lined saying that it didn't fit into the Metro Plan which was to keep the area one owner homes. Knowing they had trouble on their hands, the podium speakers asked him to sit down since they were only answering written questions. This brought down the wrath of hecklers on his head and-the wrath of eountermeeittets "8'fp theirs. "Take a vote," some in the audience shouted. A short while later, at 9:30, Goodfellow announced that the meeting had only 15 minutes to run because the Planning Board members "have to leave." He held up a fistful of written ques- tions and stated that if they couldn't get through all the ques- tions, the' audience could call the Planning Dept.

She said they had indi- cated they were and Foster at that time said they would not be embarrassed then if he show. ed them a book. Miss Smith said that Mr. Foster just flipped through the book and then plac- ed it back into one of two shop- "ping bags, he was carrying. She also noted that he had discus- sed some personal problems, re. lating that he was divorced and that his girl friend had died. As Reeve Service put it, the key of the civic centre centred on acquiring land from the To. ronto General Burying Grounds to the north and behind the township municipal building at 5,000 Yonge St. Magistrate Peter J. Bolesby, in dismissing the case against Gordon James Foster, said that "a serious doubt has been left in my mind that you did com- mit the offence to which you have been charged." He noted that the man was obviously sor- ry about the incident and realiz- ed he had done wrong. The girl friend, Deborah Ann Dyer, also of Scarletwood Court, collaberated the story. At a press conference Mon- day, Service said the civic cen- tre will ultimately be the hub of North York, a city which will eventually have three quarters Mr. Foster was arrested after a complaint had been registered by a 15-year-old Scarletwood Court girl, Elizabeth Ann Smith. Miss Smith testified she was at home with a girl friend and a younger brother when Foster came to the door selling veter- ans calenders. She said she paid. him 25 cents for a calender and was asked by Foster if she had any magazines or books that she no’longer wanted. She replied that she did not, far as Sheppard Ave. The sub. way is almost a certainty new, and Service says he has the word of the Toronto Transit Commission it will eventually be extended a few blocks far. ther north to serve the civic complex.

Scar- borough and Etobicoke will ul- timately follow his township lead and build civic centres too, he suggested, but geographically they won't be nearly as well lo. cated as North York's dream. Because of the nature of the charge, the magistrate took con- siderable time in questioning the crown attorney, Keith Hoil- ette, on whether'or not mater- ial that could be purchased was indeed obscene and whether or not the man had actually com- mitted an offense in showing the books to the girls. He then dismissed the charge. testified that Foster had been picked up and taken to 23 Divi- sion. He noted the man had a number of veterans calenders in his possession and included in the shopping bag was a picture of a young female woman and a boy, both nude, wrapped in a cellophane wrapper. Also found were three magazines contain- ing nude pictures. The officer said Mr. Foster had told him he was given the books earlier in the day by a woman, but could not recall the address. Detective Sgt. Boyle asked the man if he had shown the magazines to anyone but was told he could not remember. He said Foster admitted to him that he had had a few drinks. The officer also noted that the magazines were of the type that could be purchased in public stores. "lt is a new dawn tor a new city," he said. North York now has 31 acres to build the com- plex which is not much less than the 33 acres occupied by Tortmto's city hall and the pro- posed T. Eaton complex. Speaking in his own behalf, Foster, who had earlier wanted to plead guilty to the charge but changed the plea to not guilty at the request of the magistrate, said he had receiv- ed the magazines along with several other pocket books, comic books and magazines. He said he did not recall showing the pictures but accepted the testimony of the two witnesses.
