ORD ENTRY NEW SUBDIVISIONS | EC 21 Registered Up To The End of June 22 For All of Year 1950 # No fewer than tweny-one new subdivisions in Ontario County, most of them in the south end, were registered at the County Registry Office for the first six months of this 'year, as compared with twenty-two for the whole of last year. This all-time record is an indication of building de- velopment now under way or planned for the future, and also 'the increased demand for good land upon which to build. With the registration of theseé - subdivisions, and the extra work involved in the annexation early 1 year of part of the township of East Whitby to the City of Osh- awa, Registrar of Deeds J. M. Rob- lin and his staff have been extra busy. The staff today numbers 13, OPENED IN SIX PLACES --- New subdivisions have been regis- tered in Rama, East Whitby, Ux- bridge, Oshawa, Thorah and Pick- ering. There were none in Whitby al- thoughtthere are one or two under way which have not yet been pre- sented for registration. One of these was given tentative approval Tues- day night by the Town Planning Board, WORK FOR AJAX The office is expected to have to register in the near future plans covering about one thousand lots in the Improvement District of Ajax, which is now enjoying a busy development period. Ajax, as is well known, changed its status a few months ago and a large portion of it is now administered by a Board of Trustees as a municipality. ANNEXATION TO OSHAWA Following the annexation to Osh- awa of a large portion of East 'Whitby Township, it was nécessary to make some 3,363 lot entries. Al- Chas.

This land was largely subdivided and much of it is built on or will be in the not" too distant future. Right now it is a fast growing part of the Mo- tor City. It was found necessary to open up two new books to replace old books which are becoming unfit for use. This, too, involves a lot of work. . BIGGER THINGS LAST YEAR It is reported by Deputy-registrar, Miss Hazel Worfolk, that for the first six months of this year, there was a ten per cent increase in the number of registrations over the same period last year, A BIG JOB DONE The recopying of the general registrar and index of wills has been completed and took several months. On the order of Inspector of Legal Offices, Hugh H. Donald, recopy- ing of a book "A" for south Pick- ering Is under way as the book covering same has became unfit for use. This will take a girl several months. EXTEND THE COUNTER New extensions for the counter are being made to provide room for 12 more abstract books which are used in the searching of titles. The officé is a hive of industry and mecca for barristers and others daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m, and on Saturday from 10 am. to 1 pm, but it is often after these hours that the staff finds time to com- plete a sizeable volume of work be- fore they can call it a day. -------- PHOTO STUDIO 143 Brock St. South Whitby Phone 2255 For Appointments | § NEW .

It was parked on a hotel parking lot and when he and a companion returned from a show about midnight they found the car gone. They notified the police and early Friday morning it was report- ed found in Toronto. Car was own- ed by the company. Swimming Pool Work Is Going On Some work is still being done on the swimming pool in" Kinsmen Park, in the north end of the town, by a limited number of volunteer workers, who may be seen at night making fheir contribution to this community project. to pour the cement floor of the pool, and this in itself is a big job. The committee chairman is Donald Gaine, The sidewalks are all laid and there remains yet to be done the bathing houses and the filter. Here, of course, the porblem of finances arises, and it is a mighty important one, The pool cannot possibly be opened this summer, it is thought. The Commitfee which approach- ed the Town Council eagly in the spring. and asked that the town take over the.pool is disappointed that no definite answer has been received. It was pointed out then that if the town .took the project over it could, obtatn a grant of $4,000, and with the money the committee had on hand, the pro- Ject could be completed, Whitby Classified WANTED TO RENT--2 OR 3 UN- furnished or furnished rooms for young business couple, in Whitby preferred.

When daily we observe the speeding that takes place on such thoroughfares in town as Brock Street South, and realize that the lives of both children and adults are en- dangered by motorists who digregard the town's traffic rules, we believe that this timely paragraph in the Whitby Rotary Bulletin of last week should be read by everybody. "Our club is dedicated to restore the limbs of crippled chil- dren of our own community. After we extend our bound- daries by making it possible for kiddies to regain their health when other afflictions befall them. It is with a great deal of gratification that we have seen with our own eyes the amazing results achieved by our medics. There is no greater reward than the smile on a childs' face that expresses his joy on realizing he can play the same games as other children. During the summer months our children are free to roam. Traffic becomes extremely heavy and everyone is in a carefree mood. Don't spoil it for yourself and some- body .else by being careless. Observe the traffic signals and drive carefully. When in town, gear down." We say with a true knowledge of the facts that it is nothing new to see motorists travelling at least 40 miles an hour on Brock Street South. Furthermore, since Byron Street South was paved it also has become a speedway. Some of these days it will be too late. Some motorist will not be able to stop when he wants to and some person, more likely a child, will be killed. For a few days afterwards there will be a demand that the traffic rules be enforced but the people will soon forget. It was ever thus. Driving on many of our streets is very bad. Some motorists need to be checked Preparations are now under way up by the police. Brooklin Nip 6-3 Big First The law of averages caught up with the Whitby Stokers last night and théy finished up on the short end of a 6-3 score at the hands of the Brooklin nine. The Stokers were almost beat single-handed by Foster, tricky second sacker for the visitors, as he rapped up no less than three double plays unassisted. Betier watch out Hall, or Pedlars will be after him too. Brown, on the local mound, got off to a shaky start as he got a couple of rough calls behind the plate, by (an -off night) Shellenkoff. The boys from out north racked up five runs in the first inning and they appeared to be well set. Spencer, Sundin and Scott with two for four led the Stokers at bat. Graham with two for three and D. Mitchell with two for five led the winners. Seven er- rors by the Stokers were a thorn in their own side, Facing a three-game losing streak to the Stokers the Brooklin lads came to town with determination in their bats. They soon showed that the Friday the 13th was their lucky night, They racked up four neat bingles with an error and four walks for a five run rally. The Stokers came to bat with their backs to the wall. Spencer first man up walked, Gibson forced Spencer at second and Dafoe hit into a double play. Brooklin managed to get one maw on in their half of the second as Graham led off with a single, but Brown steadied away and retired the side in order. With two men on and one out Scott hit into the second double play of the game. Stokers Inning Enables Visitors Win It was a pitcher's duel from here on in until the seventh when the Stokers ma; to get their first run, two hits and an error aceount- ing for the tally. Brooklin, however, were not contented with their four run lead and they came up with an- other single in the 8th to wind up the.scoring from their point of view. The Stokers, who were late to get started, managed an another run in the eighth and another in the ninth. It was a good game for the visitors to win as they would have been thinking that the Stokers held an old jinx over them for taking the cup away from them last year. The Stokers, on the other hand, didn't look up to par from where we saw it, and they were beaten by a better playing team in last night's game. The Brooklin team had a couple of new faces in their line up last night, or we should say as far as playing here against the Stokers is concerned. Hooker was on first and Mackay was at Short. Both boys played heads up ball. Hooper hit a three bagger in the first in- ning and Mackay robbed Gibson of a sure extra base blow in the ninth as he made a lovely catch.

Junior Farmers to Hold Picnic On Fri. July 20th The annual picnic of the Ontario County Junior Farmers' Association will be held at Geneva Park, Fri- day evening, July 20, at 630 p.m. ' The picnic supper will begin at 6.30, and people are asked to bring their own lunch, cutlery and cups. Ice cream and soft drinks will be supplied by the Junior Farmers to supplement the lunch basket. There will be a ball game after supper. The evening will be brought to a close by a dance in the Geneva Park Pavilion from 9.00 to 1.00 am. There is a swimming pool in the park for those who would like to swim, The picnic is under the supervis- ion of Everson Norton, President of the Ontario County Jr. Farmers' Association 'and Harley Johnson, secretary, together with their Ex ecutive and Directors. The Junior Farmers Picnic is an annual event and was very much enjoyed by those who attended last year, Supervisor Works Post Still Vacant Efforts of the Town Council to obtain a works supervisor have been so far unsuccessful, but the search is still on. The Council advertised the posi- tion twice but while three answers were received the applicants were not considered satisfactory, as they did not have the necessary ex- perience. Earlier this year the Council de- cided to relieve Mr. J. Gordon Da- vis of the duties of this office so that he might be free to give all his time to the town as assessor, which had long been regarded as a full time job. Mr. Davis, by the way, is also building Inspector. Experienced works supervisors out of work should therefore make a trek to the town offices. Rev. H. G.
