Fraser of the department of highways, Port Hope, said Wednesday, there would be no delay in completing the paving of the 20-mile stretch of Highway 401 between Cobourg and Brighton. The engineer was commenting on reports that due to uneven bonding of asphalt, some sec- tions of the highway might have to be relaid. "Frankly," he said, "we do not anticipate any in drying out. A check was difficulties in completing the work on schedule. "In fact, pav- ing operations are in full swing again." CHECK CONTRACTORS A few days ago, inspectors for the department found that some of the asphalt, supplied by the British American Co. was slow made with the contractors and part of the cause was found Dr. Phillips School Grads Are Honored The pupils of the three Grade 8 classes at Dr. S. J. Phillips Public School were entertained last Wednesday at a party given by the Home and School Asso- ciation. As the number of guests Highway Work Won't Be Delayed in the change from Venezuelan oil to Canadian crude oil. It is possible that the Venezuelan oif had quicker drying properties. "The fact that we have given contractors permission to pro- ceed with paving should be evi: dence enough that we do not foresee any troubles. There are many imponderables that often arise in the construction of such highways, Mr. Fraser said. OUT OF PROPORTION Many officials of the departs ment felt that the difficulties which had arisen had bees drawn out of their proportions, "You've got to understand we are making constant checks to see that the taxpayer is getting the full benefit of his tax dollar. It is our duty to see that this is done. It is normal to see that it is done in any commercial business so why should it not be done where the government is involved in spending the tax dollar"? NO MAJOR PROBLEM An inspection of a five-mile stretch east of Cobourg, show- ed that there were some spots on the dual lane highway which appeared soft but there was nothing to indicate that the softness was a major problem. There is evidence that much of the finishing process is now being rushed to completion on the highway which will allow Toronto motorists to travel a full 140 miles from the metrop- exceeded the capacity of the school auditorium, the Board of Education permitted them to use the auditorium at OCVI The program opened with the president, Mrs, Malcolm Adam, introducing the principal, Lau- rence Savery, who presented the teachers of the three class- es, Mrs. Sandra Pegg, Archie Hubert and Carl Ritchie.

Mr. Leslie agreed that he had been involved with the boy. Mr. Fulling did not ask for an explanation of the inci- dent or inquire as to what his] boy had been doing.
