Itarrir Examiner Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited to Hayï¬eld street Barrie Ontario SATURDAY ocronaa m1 Pm Date Book For Community Barrie is busy place We have con tended that for someyearsflit is oven organized It has been remarked that Barrie is clubbed to death You name an organization and we have it or an ofgshoot be it in the service fraternal sports or just plain cultural group he reason for this outburst is that too many organizations plan their annual or semiannual big events for the same night without re ard to the fact that lot of people wo like to attend them but must choose one alone When local organization has devoted considerable thought and preparation to major pro gect there is nothing more calculated arouse the ire of its membership than to learn at the last moment that some other group has chosenexactly night to present its function and the two cannot but help conflict in attendance Barrie has many meetin even for jigrowing city and the man from Se ember to June fInd those citizens are communityminded trying to decide which one to attend on given night Of course there are those who attend noth ing who do their days work five days week and contribute nothing to the community Proportions vary all the way from 25 per cent to 75 percent But they can live with themselves For weeks now we have been running into multiple meetings so much so that this newspapers staff cannot ho to cover them all what with responsibilities to council and school board news Just for example take next Wednesday On that evening the University Womens Club is presenting in Barrie the Canad ian Players travelling company in Chris topher Frys The Ladys Not For Burn thesamei To$iifl€6rrflicï¬rigwï¬venfsl ing It Is also the same night for the Scottish Rites Fall Assembly It is also the same night for the annual opening dinner of Barrie Curling Club goodly number of local people will be in Tor onto for the Progressive Conservative convention windup No doubt there are half dozen other local functions which have escaped our attention at this mom ent This is only one ni ht There have been several already co Labor Day th the same problem and no doubt there will be many more before we cele brate Dominion Dgï¬ could be very rea eliminated and there seems no good reason why the necessary steps to rectify the situation sbouidlnot be taken beforethe busy win for pro am of community events gets into fu swing All that is necessary is to have cen tral clearing house to record the dates se lected for various events and then to educate local organization in its use Not too many years ago the Barrie Chamber of Commerce provided such service and so too did The Barrie Ex aminer It was not altogether success ful for the simple reason that many 10 cal groups either were unaware of its existence or were unwilling to take ad vantage of the convenience it afforded Some organizations however did make use of the service and great manyan noyliig conflicts in dates were avoided public date book would be worthy community service for organizations to wousult before picking date when some conflicting meeting or concert has aIi ready been

boards that Home Secretary Butler would give up the leadership of the party after the conference and robeny the leadership of the house as well That prediction came true but this happened before the conference Instead of after it Why Mr blacmlllan chose this time to announce his cabinet changes is the subject of some speculation What is probably nearest to the truth Is that the changes were made In an eff ort to Infect some life and in terest into what promised to be rather dull gathering of the faithful of therparty Itlsalso noted that he made some of the changes he did to disarm the critics within the party who were all ready to launch major attack on some of bIs policies With new men just pitchforkcd into the con troversial posts he has forelt stalled the criticism that might other wise have come MACLEOD MOVES UP The most significant move is the promotion of Iain Maclcod from the job of colonial secre tary to be the chairman of the Conservative party and leader of the House of

have to be found for the three problem of Com moowcalth trade Britisbagri culture and the European Free Trade Association He felt this could be done without any amendment to the articles of the Treaty of Rome His state ment on Commonwealth Trade as given in the manuscript of his statement is of particular interest to Canadians It quotes him as follows TRADE LINKS VITAL Mr Heath thought that the European Economic Commune ity countries shared the Unllcd Kingdom view of the value of the Commonwealths contribu tion to the strength ond stabil ity of the world He stressed the importance of the Common wealths trade links asone 0L the strongest elements in main taIning the Commonwealth as sociation He drew attention to the heavy dependence of cer tain Commonwealth countries on their exports to the United Kingdom it might be that so far as at any rate some mem bers of the Commonwealth and United Kingdom Dependent Territories were concerned solution might be found suitable form of associ
