The province refused to agree to Ontario County's re- quest for an amalgamation with Oshawa- only, 'but Mr. Dymond stressed the door is not slammed on their join- ing York and Oshawa. Ontario County has so far rejected the proposal. 5 It is still recognized as a * county health 'unit on its own, but receives only a 50 per cent grant.

PORT PERRY STAR -- Thursday, August 29, 1968 -- 11 Recognizing the many man- agement problems faced by the men who produce the world's poultry meat, both in Canada and throughout the world, Peel's Poultry Farm Limited of Port Perry, have, in recent years, concentrated heavily on special research programs, so they can offer further assistance through field service work. During the past few months mem- bers of the staff from Port Perry, Ontario hve travelled about 50,000 wiles, studying various broiler operations and offering technical assist- ance where required. Robert Teskey, geneticist, recently returned from an extensive five-month tour, during which time he visited Peel's distributors and cus- tomers in Spain, Portugal, Holland, Cyprus and Greece. Dr. John Price, President of Peel's, spent two weeks in Spain and Holland dealing with specific management functions following Mr. Tes- key's return from Europe. Just back from a consult- ing tour through six coun- tries in Central and South America and the West Indies, Dr. Craig Riddell, Director of Poultry & Animal Health, recently joined Mr. .Albert Smith, Geneticist and Direct- or of Research and_Develop- Peel's Poultry Farm Ltd.

Both men have been intim- ately involved in recent re- search and development pro- grams conducted at Peel's. While Sales Manager Doug Hillier maintains regular con- tact with Peel's customers & hatcherymen across Canada, he believes that Peel's in- creasing emphasis on field service can be of consider- able value to broilermen both in North America as well as overseas. It is the company's intention to concentrate more and more effort on field ser- vice work as dictated by market requirements.

LEASING LAMBERT QEAL ISTATH AIO REALTOR 985-7373 The new allocation of vot- ing power, authorized by a private bill approved by the Ontario Legislature, was used for the first time when Ont- ario County Council met on Tuesday at the county build- ing. Under the new rule the ing Township will each have six votes. The reeve and deputy reeve of each muni- cipality will each cast three votes on divisions. Previous- ly each municipality had four votes. One of the more import- ant matters considered at the session was the division of the county into electoral dis- tricts for the purpose of elec- ting members of the county board of education. This ac- tion was delayed due to the introduction of the new equalization factor in the county assessment. The new board will have a total of 20 members. Seven will be elected by Oshawa and 10 by other sections of the county. 'This will mean that some electoral districts will elect one trustee; while other districts will elect two or three trustees. Three members of the board will be elected by sep- arate school supporters. This part of the election will cov- er Oshawa and the entire county. The council also debated a. recommendation from one of its committees for a grant toward the Oshawa General Hospital Building Fund. Tt will also confirm the appoint- ment of county representa. tives to the Durham College Board.
