WHITBY (Staff) -- The life- span of the 'Maple Leaf" in this community was a littie short of 'Forever' -- it was cut down and stolen the day after it was 4 ' Sometime between nightfall Saturday and dawn on Sunday the new Maple Leaf flag was stripped complete with ropes from the pole that stands in front of the Municipal Building. Whitby became one of the first communities in Canada to fly the red-and-white banner | Friday, the day after the senate had passed the flag bill. It was a gift from the Ontario Riding Federal Liberal Associa- tion, and was raised by Mayor Warren Mowat at 3.05 p.m. NOT HALLOWE'EN -- Samuel! P. Hollingsworth, president of the association, said Sunday: "It was the act of some very irresponsible person, some crank. It isn't Hallowe'en, so somebody. o! usly got his dates ater sae all, it is Canada's flag." Junior Farmers Name Officers The Port Perry Junior Farm- ers held their annual meeting in the Community Hall, Green- Vernon MacCarl,, Fl Zone Commander of the Royal Cana- dian Legion and an advocate of the Red Ensign as the coun- try's flag, said: '"I'm not unhappy about it. 'They shouldn't have acted so quickly in putting it up." The Legion has adopted the Ensign as their official flag, and Mr. MacCarl was unable to deter- mine the official attitude to- ward the Maple Leaf flag. MAYOR'S COMMENT Mayor Mowat: "I don't want to make any comment on the incident -- it's too controver- sial.'" He was asked why he allowed the new flag to be flown over the municipal build- ing before royal consent was given to make it official, and replied: "Somebody had to be first." Why wasn't the flag taken down at sunset, as is the custom throughout the British Em- pire? The mayor said: 'That's something I intend to find out." Will the next flag on' the pole be the Maple Leaf, the Union Jack, or the Red Ensign? No Inquest In : Child's Death © bank, Dec. 17.

INKPEN NOT HAPPY Councillor Harry Inkpen, who advocated a distinctive Cana- dian flag in council last year and was responsible for an offi- cial recommendation for one to the federal government, was less pleased about the running- up of the banner than its pulling- down: "I was not happy about the Maple Leaf replacing the Red Ensign this way," he said. 'I know that I said previously I would support a distinctive new Canadian flag, but I think the mayor was a little hasty. It (the raising) should have been done collectivély rather than with just a couple of council mem- bers and some school-children there. "T think there'll be something said at council about this." -His reaction to the cutting-down: "It doesn't surprise me a bit." Cpl.
