WHITBY And DISTRICT Whitby Bureau Office: 111 Dundas St. West Manager: John Gault Tel. 668-3703 'Good Citizen's Sin' Gets Mercy Of Court a apa "that could hap- pen to or good citizen," hap- 'pened to a Stouffville man, and 'was unravelled in Magistrate's Court here Tuesday. Pi ppt Nesbitt was fined $50 and costs or 10 days for care- less driving. His careless driv- ing, the court learned, had caused a two-car smashup that injured six people and demol- ished two cars. . The accident occutring at Coppins Corners, on Brock road near Uxbridge resulted from M. Nesbitt's: failure td observe a stop-sign. He crased broadside into a ear driven by John Simpson, of rkham and rendered $2000 mage to it. The crash also @aused some $1500 damage to the Nesbitt car. Simpson told the court he was northbound on Brock: "I saw nothing," he said. "Al! of a sudden I knew nothing. I had a concussion in the head." He was in the hospital for eight days, with a pierced kid- ney, broken ribs and vertebral damage, as well as cuts and abrasions. He was still zon- valescing, he said. His son was in the hospital for four days with a concus- sion. Constable Ray Goodwin of OPP Whitby said Nesbitt was eastbound on a Concession road which was marked with the stop-sign. Visibility at this point was described as poor, obscur- red by trees. The Nesbitt car ended up in, a service station lot. Nesbitt suffered a fractured left "'wing- bone," a concussion, contusions, lacerations, and some amnesia. His wife suffered scalp lacer-; ations, and contusions, and two o is three children were also jured. They had been on a picnic, the court learned. Toronto lawyer Gerry Rook,7e acting for the defendent, asked for dismissal on the grounds that only a collision had been proven, but not negligence, He argued that the cars could have ways, many of them not unl- awful. Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck argued that the only possible inference the court could draw was thac Nesbitt ran the stop- sign at a high-rate of speed. He maintained that the acci- dent -- its severity -- and on the evidence, could only point out guilt. Magistrate Harry Jermyn agreed, and convicted Nesbitt. He sympathized with the ac- cused, however, in his injury and loss, and thus assessed the minimum penalty. "It could happen to any good citizen," he said. "The court does not consider this man a criminal in the normal sense. Non-Prime Mover Moves Into Jail George Fitch, although he was "not a prime mover," will be moving into an Ontario Refor- matory for the next year, at least. He was sentenced to a year) definite, and three months in-) definite here Tuesday for break. entry, and theft, A sentence of three months for possession of housebreaking tools was made concurrent by Magistrate Harry Jermyn.

He was jointly charged with Dino Tsinonis of Toronto, who was given two years in peni- tentiary last week. A third man, William Boyd (not Hoppy) had a possession of tools charge against him dismissed. Defense Counsel Donald Dodds} asked the Court for a suspended) sentence, on the grounds that! this was his client's first ven- ture into crime with intent.

November COMMENT By CHRIS DENNETT (Times Staff) It is indeed good news that Whitby Town Council is going to take a good hard look at its garbage disposal methods. The Hopkins street dump is 'filling up fast. And now the council has stopped the bumming of inflammable materials it will fill up even faster. Something has to be done. The solution should be a per- manent one, not a temporary stop-gap. © The present dump has about two or three years left. This will allow the council's sani- tation committee to investigate! the matter thoroughly. Rush remedies are going to cost the town's ratepayers more in the long. run. PERMANENT SOLUTION How about a permanent solu- tion? The capital expenditure necessary would be heavy. But it would be worth it. An incinerator plant perhaps, Such an installation woulg be expensive -- very expensive. But garbage is not peculiar to Whitby. Pickering, Ajax, and Whitby Township all suffer from the same problem. Is it not feasible that the four local authorities combine their finances to build one incinerator plant to cater to the whole area? This could perhaps be one idea that the Whitby Council's Sanitation Committee could in- vestigate. It is not as lunatic as it sounds. Capital cost. would be spread over a much larger area. The plant could be installed in some Co-Op Incinerator Plan Might Solve Garbage Woe Garbage disposal is an ever- increasing problem. Such a problem, in fact, that it de- serves a positive and, if neces- sary, an expensive cure. ARCHAIC PROCESS The filling-in of large holes which, because of the demand, are getting fewer and fewer is an archaic process. Once the Hopkins street dump is filled a new and convenient hole has to be found. And coun- cil has already iff@icated that the next dump may well be out- side the town limits, This, of course, will mean higher trucking costs and prob- ably higher labor charges too. Then there is the problem of those smelly, rattling garbage cans which are always filled to overflowing. Here again the council should devote serious thought. There is nothing in this world quite so unpleasant as a gar bage can. It smelis something awful whatever methods are used to combat the stink, This are unhealthy too. There is no argument about that. PLASTIC-BAG METHOD Why not adopt a system that Scarborough Township recently introduced. This involves the distribution of plastic bags. Each housewife could receive a supply of bags every week. These eliminate completely the noisy garbage cans. When the garbage truck calls ¥> just throws the bags in and also drops a new supply of bags. It is as simple as that. The garbage problem deserves serious thought. However ex- central location convenient to each of the authorities. pensive the solution may be it should be investigated. Curses, Pulls By CLIFF GORDON Whitby Pee Wees last night downed the Brooklin All-Stars 11-7 in a keenly contested game at the Whitby arena. Larry Moore was the giant killer for the Whitby team as up no less than seven goals. Ron Dudley picked up three goals for the winners with Second Old Coin Clayton Foskitt adding one. Brooklin got their fire from hard-working John Ormiston who dented the Whitby net on six occasions. David Wright got the other Brooklin marker. YY 18ST PERIOD 1. Brooklin, Ormiston, Wright Found Another ancient coin has been found in the Whitby area. On Monday we carried a story about George Munro, of 424 Perry street, who had found a gold sovereign in an old writ- ing desk. The coin dated back to 1791 and bore the head of King George the Fourth. Now Mrs, L. Haley has come up with a coin dating back to the same year. She found the copper coin while digging in her garden. It also bore the royal coat of arms and the head of King George. Both of the coins found had a small hole drilled in the top which seems to indicate that they may have been worn as lucky charms. .

La- crosse Club as they nipped the pride of Ontario County 10-9 in one of the best games of Sr. Lacrosse seen in the Garden City in several years. The ref- erees, Scoop Hayes and Don Page, were high in praise of the fine sportsmanship shown by both teams. Doug Flavell, up from the St. Kitts Jr, team, sparked the attack for the Athletics as he scored five goals, including the winner with 19 seconds to go the final period. Pete Ber; had two with single counters to Brian Thompson, Gary Moore and Ted Howe. For the Brooklin team it was Glen Lotton withthree and Grant Heffernan with two, and three assists. Single markers were picked up by Chas. Lud- low, Bob Hanna, Ken Craw- ford and Mike Gray.
