Another suggestion from a worried councillor was that the lease be only for 25 years so that county council maintain a hold on the building. Warden Russell Francis coun-| tered this suggestion, however, with the reply that the acquir- ing of centennial grants on such a short lease would be almost impossible, The motion was eventually passed by a majority of 14 to 8. BEFORE COUNCIL TODAY Ponight the offer will come b@fore the town council's Cen- tennial Projects Committee for discussion. There seems little doubt that it will be unanimous- | ly accepted. "What we have to do," ex- |plained Projects Committee Chairman Councillor Tommy Edwards, "is tonight formally accept the county building as the town's centennial project. "Nhat recommendation will go} before a full meeting of town! council at its next gathering to-| gether with the county council's offer. "Town council then has to give a definite 'yes' or 'no' to the offer. "Let me say this though, it is most gratifying that county council should have made this| offer. It is most generous, The people of Whitby should now act on this information." | DECISION PRAISED John Pantony, President of the Whitby Chamber of Com- merce, and a fellow member of the centennial projects commit- tee, was also full of praise for the county council decision. "T think it is tremendous," he said last night. 'A good forward It just shows what can be done if a few peo- ple sit down and really get down to it. "T say it again, it is a tre- mendous offer -- everything we 'had hoped for."

Building Will Retain Policy On Solicitor Ontario County Council's legal business does not warrant services of a full-time solicitor, councillors decided Tuesday. Discussion on the subject was prompted by. Deputy eeve George Brooks, of Whitby, who asked how much 'the county is spending every year on legal fees. This, County Clerk William Manning told him, amounted to somewhere like $8,000. Reeve John Goodwin, of Whitby Township, followed up to say that the City of Oshawa employed a full-time solicitor, why not Ontario County? "We employ the services of two local solicitors,' he added "They are both well known reputable mén. But we have to face a fact. These men are free agents. ' "We have no right to restrict them. If we had our own solici- tor we might be better received on occasions." He suggested that the mat- ter be referred to finance com- mittee for further consideration.
