This will to a great extent be made possible by Port Perry Chamber of Commerce who is taking the initiative of raising funds by holding a dance in the Legion Hall on Saturday, Oct. 17th. 75 tickets will be sold for this dance at a price of $15.00 per couple and members of the C. of C. will have the first oppor- tunity of .purchasing these . tickets.

The complete dispersal of the Gordon Ward, registered "Wardhaven Holstein herd" on September 17th. was a most successful event, There were 56 lots of cattle and these brought an average price of $343.80, with veteran Ted Jack- son on the auction stand, as- sisted by Lloyd Wilson of Ux- bridge and Robert Flett, Osh- awa on pedigrees. High selling animal was a 4-year old V.G., daughter of Roeland Reflection Sovereign that brought $2000. on the bid of Paul Ekstein, Tor- onto. Other high prices paid were $900. by Wm. F. Moore, Cobourg for a G.P. cow; $625. by Kahn Bros. Brooklin for a G.P. cow; $490. paid by Morley Raines & Son, Blackwater, and $450. paid by Anthony Miller, Bradford, both for G.P. cows.

The route travelled by the school bus is in a westerly di- rection along the paved high- way of the 7th Concession and therefore does not pick up children at their gateways on the 6th. Instead, these child- ren must walk out to the Brock Road to catch the bus and re- sidents on the 6th are protest- ing. The distance involved is 8/10 of a mile for one child and 6/10 of a mile for the other. Com- plaints were heard of the bus being late due to tardiness of children getting to the bus stop.

She claimed the bus drivers had to sound the horn to hurry some pupils out of their houses. Trustee Neil Hunter replied he didn't think this would hap- pen too often, as bus drivers had schedules to keep and if a pupil was repeatedly tardy he would find himself getting to | school whatever way he could. Claims of "favoritism" were rejected by the Board, and Chairman Byron Hoéltby quoted the Public School Act under which there is no compulsion for public school children to be provided with bus transporta- tion unless the school is located more than a mile from their place of residence.

As a result, Bill Pat« terson of Port Perry quickly became the envy of all his high school classmates. Bill. has been taking flying lessons in Oshawa since June. However, Government regula- tions require a student to be 16 before he makes his first flight alone. In addition, a student must first demonstrate to club flying instructors that he can make a series of safe take-offs and landings.
