Ken MacLennan and Art/§ Dempsey used tungsten-studded| § tires to advantage on the twist-| § ing, icy and snow-covered back roads of rural Ontario that took a heavy toll of machinery. The winning car was entered by the Ford Motor Company of Can- ada. Only about 100 of the 176 cars leaving here Friday night got back to the finish line Sunday. MacLennan, driving in his first winter rally, and his expe- rienced navigator finished with only four penalty points awarded on the basis of one for each minute early or late arriv- jing at the many check points jalong the eastern and northern /Ontario route. Behind MacLennan andj Dempsey came Fred Hayes of| |Toronto and Don Hambly of| /Oshawa in a Corvair Monza; with 11 points. It was the 10th running of the rally, sponsored by the British Empire Motor Club of Toronto. ~ Five of the first six finishes were factory-entered cars.

He said the council appreciated the work and inter- est of the various committees involved in recreation A motion was adopted to leave the matter of construction of, either an arena or commu- nity centre, in the hands of the existing committee to make recommendations as it sees fit.

But there are another 450,000 working in little, family backyard shops and they are almost impossible to organ- ize. "Forty-two per cent of Japan- ese textiles come from those shops," said Mr. Millard. "But we can't say, 'Don't buy these Japanese textiles'. If we don't buy their textiles, they can't buy our wheat."

Township Studies Taxi Application BY ELSO STORRY BROUGHAM Pickering Township has enough taxis and, therfore, is not ready to re- ceive more taxi applications, J. Austin of Temple Taxi told the Township recently. He said that he kept three taxis going in the area, and was just beginning to show a profit. He told council that he had an investment of $40,000 in the bus- iness.' - Four applications from Tor- onto were expected to seek taxi licences recently, but only one appeared at the meeting. The lone application was from A. Parity, a resident of the West Rouge who drives a cab in Tor- onto. Mr. Parity said there was room for more taxis in the West Rouge area and, since he was a resident of the area, he would no longer be able to operate in Toronto. Reeve Sherman Scott said the application and. the objection would be turned over to the by-law committee.
