A pre-school nursery for emotionally disturbed children will soon be operating in Etobicoke and there is a drop-in centre in Thistletown for teens and young adults. Plans for a multi-service family centre are proposed for northern Etobicoke. News Brief "There must be a better way York Council can receive civic delegations," Alderman Gordon Keyes said last week. He suggested that instead of deputations waiting around at council meetings to be heard they should be phased with a set hour given for when they will be heard. This system is used in some other Metro municipalities. At council's first full fledged business session it gave one deputation one hour and 20 minutes of hearing while others had to wait. A conference on the troubled child held in November, 1968, showed that many schools do not provide the special care needed for children with emotional problems.

Mr. White suggested Metro parks department could install such signs as "no further toilet facilities for one mile." The Metro parks com- missioner is worried that his department may not be able to do an effective job this year as a result of $420,000 in budget cuts from $550,000 in new projects. Mr. Thomson was also concerned that "Ptople will go behind trees if there is not adequate park washroom facilities," Metro Parks' Commissioner Tom Thompson said. In budget cuts applied by the Metro committee dealing with a $206otillion spending program about $70,000 for park washroom facilities was removed.
