Every available pickup truck, trailer, or what have you was called into service to help store the papers until a_second tractor load could be arranged. Successful Scout paper drive A very successful Paper Drive on Saturday, Septem- ber 15th. Resulted in so much paper, that a large salvage truck from Oshawa was filled, and a substantial overflow landed in Mr. G. Nelson's driveway and garage. It is noticed that a OMB approves Reach sub- division zone It took only half an hour for the Ontario Municipal Board to approve an application from Reach Township to rezone a piece of land on the wpe ide of the Oshawa SOS: Prince Albert, The land V Charles Santos of Toronto who also owns land across the street from the area. Mr. Santos property across the street is zoned for industry and the K.R. Coulter plant sits on the property. There were no objections to the rezoning application. The O.M.B. decision clears the way for Mr. Santos to apply to build a 126 home residential sub divi- sion. large percentive of local citizens do not save their scrap paper.

Under the new system the mayor and the regional councillor will rep- resent us down there, in addition to sitting on the local council.
