AJAX & DISTRICT NEWS John Mills, Representative -- Phone Ajax 426 Contracts Let For New Ajax Schools AJAX CONTRACTS LET.. i rter)--The contracts to build th a new sixteen room school and the addition to the North Junior School have been awarded to the Hughes Construction Comp- any of Toronto. This contractor's tender was the lowest 'of eight received by the Ajax School Board. It is learned that the schools will cost considerably less than the architect's original estimate. The Department of' Municipal Affairs has given its approval to the con- tract and the School Board awaits approval by the Municipal Board. Now that the cost is known to the School Board, fi i will be completed in the near future. Equipment for six rooms will be purchased. The school board has equipment on hand for fourteen rooms. READY IN SEPTEMBER The contracts call for the four room addition to be completed in time for school opening in Septem- bet, and the new school by Decem- T. Many hours of discussion and Board in conjunction with the architects, Barker and McBain, and the Department of Education, ably assisted at all times by School Inspector Mr. A. Archibald, have produced plans which will soon materialize into schools of which Ajax will be proud. The exterior treatment is attract- ive and the contractors have even agreed in their tender to plant a ! white birch tree which was shown in the architect's prospective draw- ing. The two kindergarten rooms in the south school are contained in one wing which is separated from the main school by the auditorium. giving the tiny tots a separate playground away from the older children. The classrooms are so laid out that a quadrangle is formed on the west side for play space for the higher grades. The principal's office, school nurse's room and teachers' rooms open off a corridor parallel with the auditorium. MAXIMUM OF LIGHT The classrooms are so placed to give a maximum of light. Pro- vision is made for an ample num- ber of emergency fire exits. The heating system, is hot water radiators, served by an oil fired furnace. Classroom floof's are mas- tic tile on concrete slab. The entrance and main corridor have terrazzo floors. Lighting fixtures are fluorescent. Chalkboards are the popular green color, which are now in general use in newer schools. The school is designed to provide a maximum of comfort for the pupils and staff. Economy has been the watchword, with no un- necessary frills, yet appearance has not been sacrificed or those things which. mean efficiency in operation. $19,000 Grant For Nurses Residence AJAX -- A grant of $19,000 to the Ajax General Hospital, to supply 19 nurses' beds for the nurses "residence, has been ap- proved by the Ontario govern- ment, it was announced today.

Gord Sturrock was the starter, with Buttonshaw relieving in the Whitby half of the third. With two out near the end of the fateful third, and seven Whitby markers, first baseman and catcher Frank Hooper took to the mound to stem the tide. It all started when Sturrock walked Turansky. Ward singled safely and Turansky snaked into third. With two on Ken MacDonald drew a bead on a slow curve and belted it the limit. That made three. . Keith MacDonald brought more glory to the name with a sizzling double which brough Junior Guy roaring home after slowly sneaking around the circuit following a walk, with Neal right behind him. Ding Gavis, Whitby distance hurler caught a piece of another double, and slid in two more. Then it was Whitby 7 and Bowmanville no score. In the Bowmanville section of the third Gavis walked Ted Bag- nell, and then let him take two on a pass ball. Stainton grounded out at first, and Dadson got on. Jim Gilmer flied out on a long ses Lose drive to centre, and Bagnell slipped in for the first Rose tally. The fourth was three up and three away for both sides, and so went the fifth. In the Whitby sixth Turansky Bob Ward up. Ward uncorked a long single and Turansky took three. Ken MacDonald drove another double, and Turansky came in for 8. Then Gord Neal tripled to bring in Ward and MacDonald for two more. Gary Copeland capped still another double to bring in Neal for 11 to 1 at the end of five and a half. In the Roses sixth Falls ground- ed out at third, and Tim Cox doubl- ed on a long shot to centre. Yourth walked and then Hooper brought Cox home for 11 to 2 with a long double. Bob Gallagher flied out to centre, but kept it in the air long enough to let Yourth in for the third. Bob Williams took a base on balls, and Ted Bagnell's sharp double sent home Hooper and Williams to end the sixth at Whitby 11, Roses 5. The last was scoreless for both halves, and that's the way it ended. The next home game will be played Monday evening, July 13, when Colborne Orchards will be on hands.

After dinner at noon, the tuck shop is opened for 20 minutes, and campers are allowed to purchase either a soft drink or a choco- late bar. Many of them do not feel the need of any extras, after the plentiful nourishing meals served by Mrs. Crevier, the die- tician, and her assistants, Miss Mary Hopkins and Anne Clever- on.

Flag lowering is performed at| 8 p.m. from which the girls re-, pair to camp fire, where they sing, put on skits and tell stories. This is generally the high spot of the day.

A lovelier camp ground cannot be imagined. ; ADEQUATE SUPERVISION Each of the three cabins has two leaders. Cabin A, the senior girls, aged 11 to 14, themselves '"The Angels" (for what reason we couldn't guess!) are supervised by Joan Cleverdon and Louise Beauchemin. . Cabin B, girls of 10 and 11, are under Beth Moore and Mary Soanes, and call themselves the Lambs." Cabin C, called the Morgue, with girls of eight to 10, is under Dell McKay and Don- na Dodwell. There is a competition each day to see which has the best run cabin. The last night part on Friday will be visited by the Camp Com- mittee, headed by W. Frank Tay- lor, when a presentation will be made to the best camper and swim test pins may be given out. The camp day closes with re- freshments, sandwiches and cocoa or milk at 9.15, and Taps is sound- | ed at 9.30. After such a busy, hap- py day, it can be understood that the girl campers drift easily into a sound, dreamless sleep. Boys' camp will start next Mon- day, for a similar period, also un- der the expert direction of Mr. Cotie and his competent staff. It should prove an equally wonderful experience for the boys of Oshawa who are chosen to go. who call | Cobourg Will Be Scene Of Reunion The 9th annual reunion of the Hastings anc Prince Edward Regi-~ ment will be held in Cobourg over the Thanksgiving holiday week- end, regimental association secre- tary Capt.
