While members of council generally expressed satis- faction at the growth of industry in Durham, there were some sharp words of criticism levelled at the organization of the Day, which included a 180 mile bus tour through all munici- palities in the Region. "The concept was fine, but the organization was lack- ing," was the way Brock Township councillor Don Hadden described his feel- ings. He suggested that Museum reports a good year the museum. The curator of *the Museum, Jane Baird reported a good year, with an improved attendance over last year. She also stated that approximately, sixty people from Toronto and vicinity had come to visit the museum on the weekend following the offic- #% ial closing, in response to publicity given in a recent article in the Toronto Star. After being given a tour, they were high in their praise of Scugog Shores Museum. A vote of thanks was given Alan Bertrand and his help- ers for erecting a new build- ing which is to be used for storage purposes. Mr. Les Parkes had pre- sented a drawing, done by him, of the "Show time" stage, to the historial society choir. Norman Watson, leader of the choir, in turn, presented the drawing to the chairman of the Town Hall committee, Doug Farndale, who expressed appreciation and said it will be hung in the Town Hall. Albert Harper gave a couple of musical numbers, after which he was called upon to introduce our distin- guished guest speaker in the person of Dr. William Lyle, 'Ph.D., professor Optometry at the University of Water- loo. Dr. Lyle gave a most interesting and informative illustrated address, concern- ing his work in dealing with diseases of the eye. His audience showed great interest, as was demonstrat- ed by the large number of questions he was called upon to answer. Bill Brock thanked Dr. Lyle for his most worthwhile address and presented him with the three sketches of the Museum buildings done by Les Parkes. Before the close of the meeting it was announced that about thirty society members and friends were going to Ottawa by train, for the weekend of October 21 for three days to tour the city and take in a show at the Art Centre. A social hour followed the meeting, when we all enjoy- , ed coffee and cookies. ALL SPRING BULBS 2 % oFF ANTIFREEZE 4.

There was also a suggest- tion from other members of council about confusion among staff members in the industrial development de- partment as to geographic locations in the Region. Both councillor Hadden and Oshawa councillor John DeHart said there should have been literature avail- able to the delegates explain- ing Durham's industrial development strategy, and pin pointing potential sites for new industry. Oshawa councillor Allen Dewar raised the issue of Industrial Affairs Day at the regular meeting of Durham council the next day, asking why there had been no ment- ion of the York-Durham sew- age treatment plant, and why several important sites in Oshawa had been ignored during the bus tour.
