MACPHERSON PHONE 703 WHITBY AND DISTRICT NEWS EDITOR ROBERT CORBETT PHONE 703 Programs For All Is Aim of Whitby Recreation Body Proper use of leisure time as a major community and "social responsibility was discussed last night at a general meeting of 'Whitby Recreational Association in the Library Hall. Leading the discussion was Edward Stalter of the Community Programs branch of the Department of Education. LL A good attendance, representing™" some 30 organizations in town was there. President Rev A. Gordon Channen presided and was assisted at the chairman's table by the sec- retary, Miss Jean Stewart. Mr. Stalter, a fornfer principal at Markham, told the group that rece reation programs must still be "sold" to most communities. "Recreation programs are not only for the children but are for all the community, all the year around," he said. Recreation was defined as being not only pleasurable activity but more akin to being a way of life, Satisfactory recreation finds the participant happy in it and de- riving a sense of achievement there- from, The case for recreation should not rest upon the negative view that recreation is something to keep people out of trouble. In fact it was conceded in the discussion, that it is quite possible for = recreation undirected, . to take undesirable forms. A serious discussion followed Mr. lter's talk, Thinking out loud, the participants tried to' define what they meant when they spoke of recreation and the informal talk was productive. Director of Recreation Gordon McMahon gave an interesting re- port in which he reviewed various categories of community recreation giving very brief comments upon whether or not activity in Whitby is satis®actory in those realms Of active games and sports there is no real dearth; music is reason- ably well covered by private agen- cies. .Arts and crafts are largely WANTED!

Emphasis on social ac- tivities is only "fair." Nature ac- tivities are now limited to the Gar-, den Club which is prospering. Spon- sorship of collecting hobbies is somewhat difficult to promote on an organized basis because so many collectors are individualists. Men- tal recreational activites such as discussion groups and forums are lacking in Whitby; public speaking tas been tried with some success and may be again revived, The Director asked the group for some direction in the matter of whic of these forms of recreation they thought should be. promoted to best advantage. Donald Gaine, chairman of the Swimming Pool Project, gave a comprehensive report reviewing progress to date and noting, with deep regret, that the cement short- age Had caused actual construction work to be delayed until next year. Meanwhile the raising 'of finances will contimie for only half of the estimated $8000 needed has yet been subscribed. No Relief Found For Snore Victims Montreal--(CP)--If you have a life. partner. who raises the roof with the "common or garden snore," you have little hope of respite. The Canadian Medical Association journal reports that practically no progress has been made against snoring. "Marriages can be broken up and camping parties may be ruined by snoring," the journal says. "Can tragedy go deeper?" Two forms of relief suggested-- are a piece of cotton sewn into the back of the pajamas to prevent the person from sleeping on his back, and a special splint or adhegive plaster [for keeping the mouth closed. | < "When all is Rig, however," the article doncludes sadly, "snoring is a symptom of unbalanced breathing which, may be accompanied by either' pathological or physiological conditions. "Isolation may be the only effec- tive measure." | CALL US For Your INSULATION STUCCO PAINTS o ROLL ROOFING - GYPTEX © ASPHALT SHINGLES JAS.

Orected by HENRY KING produced by LAMAR TROTTI § snruav-ron S| GN ATURE Planners Allow Limited Trade In Home Area In its blueprint of the future for the town of Whitby, the planning board decided Tues- day night that it will be neces- - sary to make provision for certain areas within residential sections to pe designated as business areas for the p of allowing a limited classifica- tion of essential business to carry on there. With the ex- ception of one or two areas already decided upon, it Ras not been specified where these will be. Types of business men-' tioned as allowable are, retail drug, grocery, meat, hardware, theatre, clubs, hotels, filling . stations, restaurants and fu- neral parlors. Zoning and building studies of the planning board are largely predicafed upon the belief that Whitby will expand greatly within a comparatively small number of years, Earphone Melodies - Drown Dental Drill Winnipeg (OP).-- Brahms, Bach and baseball scores now are serving as sedatives for the patients of two Winnipeg dentists. The -musical sedative is adminis- tered by means of a stethascope- like instrument hooked up to either a tape recorderor the dffice radio. The headset fits into the patient's ear, thus blocking with pleasant music' the unnerving sound of the drill, The: practitioners who have al- ready equipped thelr offices with this psychological "shét in - the arm" report their patient are "tickled pink." Said one: "You can't fill teeth faster to three-four time, but the; customer is 'a 160 happier." Patients who fised to sit tense and. ashen in the chair how can relax and submit to dental repair work: with a degree of comfort. One dentist said the earphone- anaesthetic appeals most to the adolescent, although not: one of more than 100 patients tested with the instrument have objected to it. Even the most nervous patient, he continued. can sit as long as an' hour without growing restless, The next step, say radio- mechanics, will be to equip dental- chair headrests with earphones. The idea arose from the realiza- tion by dentists tha} heat and noise were major factors' contributing to nervousness in their patients. To combat heat, drills were made hollow and water pumped through them into the mouth to keep the drills cool. The problem of noise was solved with the use of earphones to plug the ' ears and provide soothing music. Now, let someone find a way to eliminate the drill entirely and we'll all be happy.

Annual Meet A major item of business at the annual meeting of the Whitby Minor Athletic Association will be a proposal to form a Whithy Council. For this reason an invitation to attend this meeting to be held in the Council Chamber on Thursday, Nov. 4th, is extended to all organizations concerned with local sport activities. The activities of the association have expanded tc the point where some alteration in administration is necessary to maintain efficiency. This could be done by an internal re-organization, but mindful of the welfare of sports in general, it is believed that an agency which would act as the co-ordinating hody Jor all sports would be a decided as- set. More Autonomy Acceptance of this proposal would undoubtedly limit the sphere of operation of the Minor Athletic As- sociation in that certain, if not all, of the activities which it currently sponsors, would operate on a semi- independent basis. The authority vested in the Council would of course depend on the wishes of the affiliated organ- izations but it is presumed that they would control matters of major policy while leaving all operation of detail to the individual clubs. They would assist in the organiza- tion or re-organization of clubs as required and act as mediators in case of disapprovement between any of the affiliated clubs. Hockey League Another item likely to be discuss- ed is' the formation of a hockey league of Industrial League calibre. Such a league would, in all pro- bability replace the Juvenile Sec- tion in the Town League and might be appropriate particularly if there is no Intermediate entry in the O.H.A. this year. All in all it would appear that this will be a very important meet- ing and it is to be hoped that all sports organizations will be repre- sented. Church Essential To Good Citizenship, H & S Hears "If our children go out on the 'Highway of Life' without the pro- per training by parents, then they are unequipped to be good citi- zens," Rev. F. T. Darnell told members of the Dundas street Home and School Association in an ginepisitina) talk of good citizen- "Three fundamental which. are necessary to good citizenship are namely: the home, school and church" Mr. Darnell continued. "Should the home fail in its efforts, then the church and school struggle along in vain" Discipline and reverence are two factors which must be in every home, Mr. Darnell pointed out. "If they are not, it is the fault of the parents in most cases" he sald. "Parents today do not spend the time they should with their child- ren."

"The school must be the place where moral character and good citizenship should be taught." Mr. Darnell stated in reference to the school and its influence over the child in good ciizenship. "Teachers today have too much on the curriculum," he said, "so much that they haven't time for a half hour a day for Bible class." Mr. Darnell went on to say that in order to lay a foundation so that the future generation will be good citizens it is up to the parents and the teachers to allot time for train- ing in good citizenship. "The nation that does not believe in God will perish," Mr. Darnell emphasized reférring to the church and the part it plays in good citi- zenship. "No man is a good citi- zen if he does not go to church and send his children to church." Mr. Darnell said this could not be ac- complished by sending the children to church in order 60 get rid of them, Consideration is being given that five members of the club be sent ta the Oshawa District Council of the Home and School Clubs each month to atend the council meet- infs." An Invitation 'was extended to the members to atend a confer- ence of the Home and School As- sociation at Ajax. Several speak- ers on child psychology and educa- tion will be present.
