All of this preamble is by way of saying that the community should support the current Peanut Drive of the Oshawa Lions Club, (one of its two fund-raising campaigns, the other being the live auction held an- nually in conjunction with the Oshawa B'nai B'rith.) Lions International consisted of 15,805 clubs and 630,000 members in 13 countries or areas last August, according to Dr, W. C.' Sands, publicity chairman and director of research for the Oshawa Club. DR. W. C. SANDS THE UP-IN-THE-AIR SIDEWALK: CHAPTER 4 Those residents of Harmony road north who have been grunting and groaning about the up-in-the-air new sidewalk in front of their homes appear to have won their point. y Council has agreed that the sidewalk between King and Beaufort be removed beginning at the north pro- perty line of the third house south of Beaufort. It will be reconstructed on a straight grade from that point to the end of the sidewalk at Beaufort. Council kicked the controversial sidewalk matter around for almost an hour -- previously it had been debated by the Board of Works for almost two hours. Chairman Walter Branch of the Board admitted that rhost people in the immediate vicinity opposed the sidewalk jin the first place; when no one appeared in opposition at a Municipal Board hearing, the City de- cided to go ahead and put it in regardless. Alderman Albert Walker crystalled the situation nicely when he said: "It is an amazing situation. The people didn't want the sidewalk. Why did we insist? Now one man has to practically nosedive into his gar- part against the influence of the and added that if this view pre- OPTOMETRIST United States.

CITY TO FLY UN FLAG FOR SEVEN DAYS The city has wisely decided to fly the United Nations » Flag atop the City Hall for seven days -- October 24- 31 -- instead of one, to commemorate United Nations Day (October 24). Perhaps Alderman Walter Lane's recent protest had something to do with it In connection with the UN, the annual children's col- lection on behalf of UNICEF will be held as usual on October 31. Many children will share their Hallowe'en joys that night by calling at Oshawa homes and taking a collection on behalf of UNICEF . . The City's annual maintenance bill for Lakeview Park comes somewhere in the neighborhood of $14,000. It was $14,449 in 1959 and $13,825 last year. The bill to the end of August this year was $10,765. Sad part of it is that Oshawa folks rarely use this park. COUNCIL AGAIN IGNORES PLANNING BOARD Alderman John Dyer was angry again last Monday. He stood up and fairly screamed: "I am surprised at the attitude of this Council on re-zoning. Gentlemen, your thinking on this matter is all wrong, selfish." This has been a frequent war-chant with Alder- man Dyer of late but, of course, he is perfectly right. City Council is doing an excellent job of de-horning the long-suffering Oshawa Planning Board these days, of stripping it of all reasonable authority. As a result, the Board has almost been reduced to the status of a puppet group -- its conscientious and long-range decisions are blatantly ignored. Two weeks ago it was the Brownlee decision on Park road south. Last week it was the Rusnor Construction Ltd. re- quest to the Board for rezoning (from R2A to R2B) between Gaspe avenue and Stone street on Park road south to allow for the construction of five-plexes in- stead of duplexes. The Board had refused this request; but Council, by 9-3, played true to form by sending it back to the Board with a request that the Board investigate re- zoning an even larger area to R2B adjacent to the Rusnor property. These are highly amusing little sessions in open Council, when a Board ruling is upset (as it is so often these days). Some councillors start off by making it all look very parliamentary and democratic, but the final result is never in doubt as voice after voice is heard in unison against the Board. : Alderman Dyer is usually supported by Alderman Dafoe (both are board members) in his watch - dog role on behalf of the badly-battered board, but it is a thankless job at best, thanks to the indifference of the Council majority toward the job the Board is trying to do against great odds. The Council majority displayed a sad lack of fore- sight in the Brownlee and Rusnor applications -- such re-zoning decisions should have been delayed at least until the completion of a city-wide traffic survey expected by the end of this year. The Board can serve no good purpose in town planning if the Council continually thwarts its decision, as it has in important cases in the past few months. jand warmer today.
