Res- cuers tied a rope to Mr, pS a FROM RACING RIVER but were unable to tow his car out. The vehicle had to be tethered to a mail box, One car which was swept into the Stahle to get him to safety of the rescuers was almost swept downstream when he lost his footing. --CP Wirephoto Group Says Pickering In Need Of Arena BROUGHAM -- It on saree a group that assembied a - Township Hall here Thurs- day night that there was a def- inite need for an arena in the township. About the type of Arena, the facilities, the loca- tion, and the financing, there was considerable discussion. Reeve J, S, Scott, who pre- sided at the meeting, reminded the assembly of about 100 rate- Pipayers, that they were but a small representation of some 21,000 people, and that it was quite possible that many had no interest in such a venture. Kalman Vizely, of Claremont, pleaded that a contemplated arena might not be a place for hockey and softball only, but that track and field he consider- ed, swimming, and the many recreational pursuits that would interest all ages. He contended that Canadians received too little training for the Olympic games. "We want to keep Canadian names in the world of sports, he said. NEEDS STRESSED Mr. Vizely said he would like to see a field at least 10 acres fn size which would house an artificial ice rink, an indoor swimming pool, a football field, running track and also room structors, grow up they will have develop- ed a sense of sportsmanship. John Williams, of Bay Ridges, said that there was an urgent need for this type of facility-- something in the form of an arena, together with a commun- ity centre, including a commun- ity hall, He thought it should be in the south end of the town- ship where the population is, that it should be paid for by the taxpayers on a mill rate rather than subscription, and suggested that the question be placed on the ballot at the next election. : Terry Ryan, recently appoint- ed to the Parks and Recreation , tennis courts, for little Seo could play in sand boxes : pons capuevinien of trained in-| He said that so that when they perhaps cost $3 to $4 more to each taxpayer. Severai express- ed satisfaction with this, re- marking that it cost much more than that to take their boys and girls outside the township to play hockey. Reeve Scott remarked that the tax demand was comprised of many of these smaii mill rates, which did not take long to go over 90 mills, and so cause hardship to the people, Mr, Scott also advised that an area arena could be arranged for the south pant of the town- ship, which would raise the ratepayers' expense to possibly $4 or $5, since the need for such a project was expressed more by the south people than the north, who would find the dis- tance to arenas in adjoining municipalities less than that to the south, This was frowned upon by some of the gathering who maintained that it would not be fair. "I think the township has been very fortunate," said Don- ald Hopkins, of Bay Ridges, a member of the Parks and Rec- reation Committee, and an un- tiring worker in the hockey and softball pursuits, 'Everything has been done free -- coaching, and community work, I think the township should be paying the community back. We have not supplied the kids with any- thing in the last two years." there was a recreation budget of $7,000 for ice time. Trout Fishing Address Theme Guest speaker at a recent meeting of the Columbian Squires of Father Morrow, Cir- ship, but that the whole matter required a great deal of study. Vizely that a committee be ap- pointed from the group, but it was defeated. It was finally agreed that the Pickering Township Parks and Recreation Committee study all the ques- tions of an arena -- the cost, the location, the facilities, and the need -- and report to the township before the end of May. Parks Administrator Harry Ashton told the group that the provincial department of educa- tion suggested that an arena .n a municipality at the present time is an ill timed venture, He said that grants forthcom- ing would be $10,000 if a com- munity hall is included, a small grant under the Welfare Act for senior citizens, and a winter works grant for labor only. "Tf you cannot finance it with- out grants," he said, "you can- not finance it at all."

I think we have to consider the chil- dren." COUNCILLORS SPEAK Deputy Reeve Mrs. Jean Mc- Pherson said that she had felt since 1954 that theré is a need for an arena, but felt it not ad- visable "with the assessments the way they are this year." Mrs. McPherson advocated the sale of stock for this proj- ect, with dividends to be paid when the arena became self sup- porting. "It is not quite so simple a matter as many from the south starved for leadership!' " Lib- eral candidate Norm Cafik as- serted at a meeting in Clare- mont Friday night. His reply was aimed at Labor Minister Michael Starr's remark in the community recently. that the Liberal Party is "power- hungry". : "It is unfortunate that the Conservatives, including Mr, Starr, have taken to name-call- ing," said Mr, Cafik, "He has called his fellow Ca- nadians 'cornered rats'.
