Stan- ROUND THE GLOBE IN A GLANCE PORT HURON, Mich, (AP)-- An international specialist on city planning predicts 'the Great Lakes area, including Toronto, will outpopulate the eastern United States in the beginning of the 21st century, The forecast was made by Dr, Constantinos Doxiadis of Athens, Greece, who reported Thursday on the progress of a five-year program to determine future growth patierns in De- troit and southeastern Michi- an. . Doxiadis said the Great Lake area is the United States fastest growing region. If present trends continue, he said, it should overtake the eastern U.S., which is hemmed in by mountains and doesn't have the room to expand that the Great Lakes area has. Population growth studies of the expanding Great Lakes area show that Detroit may be the "eentre of gravity" of a 600- mile-long area encompassing Milwaukee, Toronto, Pitte- burgh, Buffalo and Chicago, Doxiadis reported, He is doing an in-depth study | on urban renewal and the fu- ture of the American city, fi- nanced by the Ford Foundation.
