4 THE DAILY-TIMES-GAZETTE, Saturday, January 28, 1958 HERBOR ENTRANCE TO UNDERGO CHANGES Whitby harbor, shown above, will be the scene of radical changes, this year. Alterations, tentatively valued at $200,000 will be carried out on the harbor piers, by the Department of Pub- lic Works. The east pier, to the left of the picture, will be recon- structed for 180 feet of its length, and will have another 200 feet added to it, making a total length of about 500 feet. The cor- ner of the west pler, and the breakwater, on the right of the picture, will be demolished, and rebuilt, so that the entrance to the harbor will be larger. Robertson, Whitby WHITBY and DISTRICT Mrs. J. Hill, who teaches grade three, at Hillcrest School, asked her class the other day, to bring any British souvenirs, they might have, to school. The res- ponse was so great, that the classroom was filled with arti- ILS DISP 5 alin B4 cles from Scotland, England, Ireland, and Wales. There were pamphlets, photos, pottery, toys, coins, stamps, etc, from all ov- er the U.K. An 'open house' was held in the classroom, yesterday afternoon, to let the children's parents see the exhibition. Tea Y BRITISH SOUVENIRS and cakes were served by the girls of the class. Above, "Scot- ty" Mary Ellen McQuay, lift, and Patsy Coates, in Welsh cos- tume, display some of the pho- tos.

The announcement follows a great deal of speculation as to the reason for piledriving, and sound: ing operations, which have been taking place at the harbor for the past few months. Mr. W. A. McDonald, of the In- formation Service, Public Works Department, enlarged on the state- ment from the department. The reconstruction, he said, will com- pletely alter both the east, and the west, piers of the harbor. One hun- dred and eighty feet of the east pier will be completely renewed, and the pier will be extended for another 200 feet into the lake. This| will make the total length of the pier over 500 feet. The corner where the breakwat- er joins the west pier will be de- molished. Two hundred and thirty feet of the west pier will be re- moved, and 140 feet of the break- water. The section demolished will then be rebuilt, but not as is' at present the case, as a right-angled corner. To admit larger ships, the angle of the harbor entrance will be widened. All the reconstruction will consist of sheet steel piles, stone and concrete, Mr. McDonald said that the al- terations to the harbor have be- come necessary, as the present harbor situation in Whitby is in- adequate, and unsafe, for the size and number, of vessels which will be using Whitby harbor in the not- too-distant future. "The change in Whitby's Industrial setup, in the last few years," Mr. McDonald said, "has made it increasingly ob- vious that the harbor will be a very busy place in the near fu- ture." Tenders for the job of altering the harbor will be called early in the construction year, probably in March, depending on weather con- ditions. " Whitby's Mayor Harry Jermyn said yesterday that the Govern- ment's decision to remodel the harbor, is "a direct tribute to our |sunk to a depth of over 40 feet, be- Industrial Commission." His Wor-| ship indicated that, both he, and the Commission, had been work- ing for some time towards improv- ing the town's harbor facilities. Charles H. Chaytor, Whitby Indus- trial Commissioner, said that the Commission had been working to- ward this and since the Commis- sion had its inception in 1953. Mr. Chaytor said, "We have in Whitby | one of the finest harbors on the north shore of the lake. I am very pleased to see it being developed." Mr. Chaytor indicated the possi bility of even more development, in the harbor area, and noted that Whitby harbor is one of the few) ports on the north shore of the lake, which will be able to accom- modate the largest ships which wil be passing through the St. Law- HOUSE FOR SALE replace; " tian blinds; treed lot; drive; garage; good garden.

Over 40 ratepayers, many of them from the east end of town, were present at the meet, which was held in the Council Chambers. President Harold Wicket presen- ted to the gathering a resolution, which, he said, the executive pro- posed to present to the Town Coun- cil. The resolution suggested that plans for an addition to Dundas St. school be held in abeyance, and that the Council, and School Board, give consideration to build- ing a four-room school, to the east of the subway, on Dundas East. Mr. Jack Reid, said that, while he was not entirely happy about "Spreading small schools around the fom, hat he thought that Mary St. sho opened as soon as possible, for the safety of chil dren travelling to and from Dun- das St. School. Mr. Maurice Slichter said that wherever the school is built, it must be built immediately. "We must build, not for the children we think will be in the area, but for those that are already there," he The safety factor was again mentioned by William Middleton, who said that he is "in a position to understand the traffic prob- lem," being a police officer. "Mary St. will probably be open- Ratepayers To Ask Council 4-Rm.

"We msut keep children off Dundas St. at all costs, as the most dangerous corner in town is that on Dundas and Anderson Streets." Mayor Jermyn, when he arrived at the meeting, was requested to say a few words on the subject of Dundas St. School. His Worship pointed out that he could not take fone stand or the other, but that he was very much concerned with the safety of children. "During the time I was teaching in Dundas School," he said, "there were two children killed in traffic accidents. 0:00 A.M.--Sunday School 1:00 AM.--"The Mark of the Intercessor" 7:00 P.M.--"'Repentence Awaits You" A HEARTY WELCOME AWAITS YOU L WHITBY DAY-BY-DAY The annual meeting of the Whit- by Branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society will be held at 4.30 ALL SAINTS' ANGLICAN CHURCH WHITBY, ONTARIO Rev.

The Thai people appear to be enjoying this political race. Apart from affording plenty of fun and excitement, it is also bringing them democracy for the first time in history, and that they like it. The star so far has been the Marshal Pibul Songgram. But he has a hard- working rival in the national police chief, Gen. Phao Sriyanond.

The political sales campaign began in January, 1955, when Sriyanond demanded that the gov- ernment be decentralized and handed to the Jeople. This gave a fillip to the police chief's popular- jty, and in April he returned to his point.
