the stouffville tribune eicbiikci 182 member of the canadian weekly newspapers association and the ontarioquebec newspapers association member of the audit bureau of circulations authorized at tecondclat mail potiofflce dept ottetca printed and issued every thursday at stouffville ont in canada j250 elsewhere s350 c h nolan editor ja thomas sports am a v nolan son publishers notes and comments hockey interest dwindling in ontario hockey interest has dwindled in stouffville and district but we find that it has dwindled throughout ontario as a whole last week an interested sjorts fan writing to our local sports editor put forward the admission charge of 75c as the big reason for the decline this protest may have some truth but in our opininn only partially so to back up our contention we could quote from simcoe lindsay bowmanville whitby newspapers who are all telling the same story poor attendance nowhere but in maple leaf gardens is there any sign of hockey enthusiasm the story appears the same throughout the province we believe the reason is a combination of circum stances there is some merit in what our friend writing in last weeks issue has to say about price money is tighter however we are just as sure that should the price of admission be cut in half the crowd going to saturday night hockey games would not be doubled there is much more to it than that a big deterrent to attendance has been the advent of television especially on saturday night with nhl games on that night saturday is the poorest night in the week for local hockey games in our opinion thirdly there is a genera disinterest something that has grown with the professionalizing of the game it may be a passing phase and we trust it is but the signs are there every hockey club in the stouffville league is feeling the pinch and managements should be giving consideration to doing something about restoring their crowds word has come to us during the weekend that the famed oshawa truckmen operating in whit by will likely fold this week because of poor attend ance the situation is serious and can get worse it ix -si- friday night shopping quite well received stouffville business places in the main found the first friday night open for shopping quite well re ceived some told us of being pleasantly surprised with the result others stated that while the result was fair it could not be compared with saturday still others made mention of daytime shopping being off volume in preference to the two nights however the friday and saturday night opening system will continue until the end of the year we predict and some assessment made at that time of the value of each night this newspaper would welcome readers comment on the shopping facilities in town and their preference lor friday or saturday night ir if k possibility of deputyreeve with stouffvilles population now past the two thousand mark the question is asked whether con sideration has been given to changing the community from a village to a town or the advisability of pro viding for a deputyreeve on council as far as we can learn from reading the ontario statutes the two thousand population stipulation is the main item affecting the setting up of a town under the clause governing the amount of acreage stouffville can qual ify however the election of a deputyreeve to council that is having a council consisting of a reeve deputy- reeve and three councillors similar to a township is the one being given most consideration chief benefit of such a move is to gain a second seat on county council however there is one stipulation to the election of a deputyreeve which is being checked into this week the law provides that the municipal ity must have one thousand eligible voters at local elections to qualify for a deputyreeve it stipulates that those voters classed as mp would not be eligible to be counted in the thousand in most cases wives of local owners are classed thus however the point has been raised and some authorities claim that all such owners wives are entitled to be classed as ten ants fr tv ft public service cast thy bread upon the waters and it shall return to thee after many days is among the wisest words of scripture it expresses a great truth which applies every where that if you do helpful things for your neighbors and home town they appreciate it and give you much in return the people who give their time and effort freely for the benefit of their home town gain far more than they ever expected in return in this unselfish service they made friends and acquired a wide acquaintance so atht people are keen to do things for them some people say there is no money in public service so they wont do any of it but those who give generously receive generously st marys journalargus fv fr fr the horsepower race reminds us of the old song horses horses horses everywhere these new models are on show in motor car dealers windows while you may lift the hood and look long and longingly one does not see many horses but they are there just the same icores of them should say hundreds for at least any car without a hundred or more horsepower today wouldnt even be in the picture it is definitely sure the buying public would turn up their noses if that power plant under the hood didnt have a super abundance of power twentyfive years ago 1030 most low priced cars had only one fifth of the power exhibited today even ten years ago the power plant while it looked as big produced much less than half the power it docs today that small car back in 1030 had about 35 to 10 hp while today it rates from 125 to 160 hp formerly high speed was reserved for that big lumber wagon the piercearrow cadillac and the wollesley today any small make of car would put them to shame in speed not to mention any other feature one would like to mention there is not a car today in standard makes eliminating possibly some of the small cars and even they can gain exceptional speeds that will not obtain speeds of 80 miles per hour or better it is reported some of the big makes are coming out with horsepower in excess of 250 hp high- compression motors have created a tremendous change in the power of automobiles so much so it seems fantastic when comparisons are made back a few years with top ratings the modern motor of 1051 produces speed of 40 per cent or more it does this on less consumption of gasoline even as high as 100 per cent more mileage the average would be well this weeks sunday school lesson lasson for

1954 editor the tribune dear sir i keep reading with interest your caustic comments on the way the street lighting is maintained in stouffville and wonder why with all the criti cal remarks heard about town concerning the same added to your articles whoever is in charge doesnt do something about it although i am not a lifelong resident i have been here long enough to see that your crucism of the street lighting is well founded if the man looking after the job i dont recall his name is not capable or is neglectful of the work how is it he is kept on so long 1 know that in large places
