congratulated for its efforts in traffic safety in making instruction available for rnotor- cychsts the highways department which h stringent rules for those who would drive an automobile has been remiss in not hav ing similar rules for cyclists at present all mat is needed for person to appear on the highway with a motorcycle is the mon ey to purchase it and a beginners licence a physical examination or knowledge of traf fk laws is unnecessary this has been a contrtbutary cause to the statistics which show mat nearly 5 of all motorcycles in ontario have been m serious accidents the rate for all other registered vehicles is 1 3 the coed clubs atm is to give each theatre in the news j the herald mai bag has had a slant to the theatrical these past two weeks the editors tendency to confuse in prmt the little theatre and globe produc tiorrs finally led an irate globe member to point out the difference which in turn gave another reader an opportunity to sug gest that the two theatrical groups combine efforts which then led to a member of the little theatre announcing a fund raising plan with hopes of building a future com muntty theatre with live theatre in the news it was a coincidence that another member of the community should write this week pointing out georgetown lack of movies and the opinion that we are now large enough to support such a venture both ideas have merit both are diffi cult to envisage in the toonear future but neither are beyond the realm of possibility the cost of a suitable building for amatedrdrsmaticstsone vhtch the hopes of those ourselves included of the limited eudiences which little theatre has attracted to date a movie theatre differs it is strictly a xlal proposition for one or other of on the verge impending opening of a new bank and a trust company branch in georgetown can only be good news for the town s econ omic future such locations are made only after careful study by the firms involved and means that we are on the verge of the long anticipated commercial and industrial boom which has been predicted for the last dec ade with factories hke general fireproof trig economy form and dennison on the horizon and with house building on the move again we seem to be emerging from a period of suspension it hasn t all been bad for it has given us an opportunity to consolidate the rapid growth which for a few years had municipal officials out of breath keeping up entrant banc knowledge of how to operate his machine which can contribute to his own safety and to the safety of others the yellow jackets motorcycle clob is cooperet fng to provide tuition safe driving will be emphasized the highway rules will be studied during the threeday course and there will be two written tests prizes are being offered for most improved and safest drivers and the course will end with a street dance evefyone owning a lightweight motor cycle is urged to take advantage of the course georgetown is juclcy to have a group of teenagers interested in such activity with the foresight to do something about a situation which can increase in ser lousness as traffic increases on our high ways the big cha ns which control film dtstnbu tion we have heard that the development firm which owns the shopping plaza is at tempting to arouse some interest in that direction and we would doubt that any pe tition of townspeople could have any direct influence naturally it would be easy to induce any resident to sign a petition say ing ha would like to have a movie theatre here but judging from the closed theatres in every ontar o town the trend from tv s viewing hasn t quite swung back to the place where a firm would r sk a large m vestment even m a town of georgetown s size perhaps the two ideas could mesh as sume amateur theatrics supporters raised a fair sum of money but were short of their goal it could be possible that an arrange men could be made then to contribute this to the cost of a movie theatre with the proviso that it be made available for re riearsair and a certain numberof perform ances yearly the important thing it that there is an awakening interest in drama both live and filmed which should be encouraged in ev ery way possible we are well equipped now with maor public works for water and sewage our streets are not perfect but have been kept in reasonably good shape some necessary storm sewers are in operation schools have been able to meet the student load and we have learned what to expect and what to demand from residential subdivis ons we can now anticipate a steady growth m population in factories in commercial establishments it wont all be rosy each jump in population br ngs its own problems future town councils planning boards and civic officials will not have too much time to spend twiddling thumbs the next decade is one of challenge which will tax us to the limit and requ re wise decisions and action from those who guide our town s affairs harley to halton weekly
