WHITBY (Staff) -- Burglars beware, stay away from the home of Ted Curl, 7 Avon rd., Whitby, this house is guarded by over 500 guns and they could be loaded. If warning isn't enough, skeptics are advised to observe the German Maxim machine gun in the driveway of the home while an anti-aircraft gun lies handy in the garage. Ted is president of the Niag- ara Gun Museum and he has the guns to prove it, all 500 of them. The maxim is only one of the heavy jobs while the house also contains lighter models and innumerable pistols, rifles and such weapons, It is truly a bur- glar's night-mare. WORTH $150,000 Valued at over $150,000, the collection of weapons are usual- ly transported around the coun- try in a mobile trailer with two armed guards on duty to handle the bolder curiosity seekers. An elaborate burglar system is in- corporated in the trailer's con- struction while a second system protects the interior of the trail- er from too close an examina- tion of articles on display. "We nearly scared the pants off a couple of youngsters who lean- ed over to touch some of the guns," Curl stated. Many of the weapons on dis- play are loaned to the museum by Government agencies while others are the property of in- dividuals. A considerable num- ber of guns belong to Mr. Curl who has been building the col- tenniary TED CURL AND HIS BACKYARD ARTILLERY $150,000 Gun Collection Is Burglar's Nightmare Among the collection are many famous guns, some of which won the west, others that attempted to destroy it plus still more weapons of fame and in- famy. One such model is the authenticated .38-.40 calibre Colt revolver used by the infamous William (Billy the Kid) Bonney. Another revolver is the .38-.40 carried by Pancho Villa the day he was assassinated, The pistol is said to have been recovered by. Pancho's assassin. The .45 calibre Thompson sub-machine gun used in the Feb. 14-1929 St. Valentine's day massacre of gangland hoodlums in Chicago is also included in the collec- tion.

Bryan Lowe, of the Bay Ridges Ratepayers' Association urged council not to approve a change of zoning from residen- | |tial to commercial for a portion of the 23-acre site on which houses are in existence. He said, in a prepared brief, that it would work 'an unbearable hardship" on the affected resi- dents. "You do have an obligation to those who reside in the area and pay taxes," he said. "The abutting taxpayers fully expect- ed their residential zoning to be maintained when they bought their houses," Mr. Lowe said that an. Offi- cial Plan was binding on a municipality, and no bylaw may be passed on public works that do not conform. BYLAWS VALID? "If this is approved, one might wonder whether any of our bylaws are valid, Do we have an official plan which can be adhered to, or a paper plan which can be changed at will?" Reeve Laycox said that zon- 'ling of ten years ago was not always the right zoning for to- day, and that all municipalities found it necessary to change from time to time. J. MacNeal and B. Hender- son, of Fairport st., declared that the stret was a mud hole, and that since the Marina lands had been purchased, cars had been parked at the base of the street to deliberately block the road. Councillor Bill Newman re- lated that all of the houses had been sold to the Marina com- pany but two, and that now they were trying to make it dif- London Subway shots climbing above the bulls- eye: and a modified MM-2 US. carbine with folding stock and! scope, The latter weapon is said) to be used in a future television| production described as a spoof on Goldfinger called Butterfin- gers. |ALL DEACTIVATED No one need be afraid of the! guns going off accidentally it/ was stated, All bolts and firing pins have been removed from the machine guns to deactivate them, All other weapons have been fastened to display racks with heavy wire, the displays coveréd with thick shatterproof glass. The entire show is presently the responsibility of Ted Curl, Twin Tunnels LONDON (AP)--The Victoria Line, latest branch of the world's oldest subway system, is half completed. Work started in 1962 on the 10%4-mile line. The first section is expected to open in 1968, the remainder in 1969. It puts twin tunnels under the heart of London's west end shopping area, and runs from Victoria railroad station 'to Wal- thamstow, an East London sub- urb. It will provide easy ex- changes with 11 existing sub- way and railway stations. The London subway, known as the underground, is 102 years old. planning] ficult for those who would not sell, and who looked after the road for years. "It's the old squeeze," he said, 'I feel we have an obliga- tion even if we only have one ratepayer. Cars are parked purposely, harrassing people to force them to sell. If they want to stay there this is their right." "I feel we as a Township," he continued, 'have an obliga- tion. to do something for thenf. They (the developers) had no right going down on that road and mucking it up. There are aol cars in and out every week- end." A decisison will be made next week after Councillors have studied the findings of a num- ber of meetings and hearings, and the conditions that will be contained in an agreement be- tween Mr. A. Carlyon, the appli- cant, and the Township. SHOPPING PLAZA E. Stroud, who operates a thriving grocery establishment on Highway and Rougemont drive in 1962 applied to have the zoning changed at his property on the north side of the Base Line to permit a shop- ping plaza. The application then was approved by planning board, then council, but turned down by the Ontario Municipal Board on the grounds that not enough information was supplied about the need for a shopping plaza. A new application has been made, and the planning board recommended its refusal be- cause sufficient data about the "need" did not accompany the application. Councillor Donald Waring said that he wanted to see a shop- ping centre as soon as possible in this area, and not have peo- ple going away to buy their sup- plies. He regretted that a super- Councillors Defer Decision On Marina Zoning Change Reeve Laycox said that being a long time resident should have no concern for the town- ship, but the consideration was for good planning and good com- mercial assessment, Councillor Newman advised that Mr. Stroud was going to Jose his present store because of the re-alignment of Highway 2, that whether he could "make lends meet" or not was not the concern of Council, and that in his opinion he should be allowed to go ahead. Planning Director J, H, Faulk- ner explained that if the OMB required a report as to the need, that the planning board should receive such a report at this time of application, and that this should be a condition for approval. "Why downgrade the township into a rubber stamp?" he asked, The unanimous resolution which approved the project made approval contingent upon the required data. The applica- tion will now go before the On- tario Municipal Board.
