Most dictionaries spell it “Chest.-nut." but Summerside has a different version as can be seen on the sign “Chesnut Ave.” Many visitors and even

Avenue did not realize the spelling until it was brought to their attention. The mls-spell- ed word looks so much like

the correct way. It is easy to miss. Town Manager Joseph Brophy said the sign came that way from the factory.

SUMMERSH)E—A handsome trophy was presented to Cana-

an pole vaulting champion, Alf Groom by Mayor J. Ernest Morrison. on behalf of the citi- zens of the town. prior to last night's meeting of council.

A silver tray was also pre- sented by the president of the Summerside Amateur Athletic Association. James T. Hogan on behalf of all the children who use the playgrounds.

The presentations were in re- cognition of Mr. Groom's recent achievement at the British Em- pire Games trials held in Tor- onto in August when he vaulted 14 feet 3 inches and won a berth on the Empire Games team that will compete in Perth, Aus- tralia in November.

In replying to the honors be- stowed on him, Mr. room said it was a “very heart-warming but also a serious moment" and expressed the hope that “With God's Help" he would be able to do his very best at the games.

Mr. MacKay said "we will be proud of him no matter how he does in Perth" adding that he was certain Mr. Groom would do well at the British Empire Games.

SUMMERSIDE — Awarding of a contract to an outside firm by the Summerside Town Coun- cil. when a local firm submit- fed a tender amounting to only a few hundred dollars more. was criticized at last night's counc meeting by Coun. Leo Wood.

Coun. Wood referred to the awarding of a contract to Eas- tern Woodworkers Ltd. for the addition "to the electric light plant where the new genera- tor will be installed. Coun. Wood said, “only $700 difference be- tween the outslde firm and M. F. Schurrian Ltd.. who have been here for 60 or 70 years and leave a lot of taxes here as well as provide a lot of ‘em- ployment."

Coun. Mrs. Wilfred stated there had been quite a bit of discussion concerning the matter w‘thin the council and it was felt that since th ec- tric light engineer mar- ried to a Schurman and there is also a Schurman in the council it was decided to give the con- tract to the lowest tender. Coun. Perry said the incident "made us realize we should just call for tenders within the town," TAXPAYERS ONLY

Mayor J. E. Morrison said that general tenders had been called, in this instance, at the request of the plant engineer. He said he hoped that in future tenders will be invited from tax- payers only. “They should be the people who do the work for

the town. Coun. George Key said he agreed and was in favor -- of

contractors. He introduced two resolutions regarding the elec- tric light department of which he is chairman.

_ One approved the adoption of regulations attached to the re- solution regarding rates for the distribution and sale of electric power and energy within the corporate limits of the town and that all previous schedules of such rates and regulations be cancelled.

The resolution stated that exist- ing regulations governing the distribution and sale of electric power require considerable re- vision to align with fair and accepted utility practice. STREET LIGHTS

The other resolution brought in by Coun. Key concerned the adoption of a street lighting pro-

m gram which will eventually see

the installation of mercury-va- por lights in all areas of the town. Coun. Key said the cost of conversion to the mercury- vapor lights will be $22,207 and this program will be carried out as funds permit.

Coun. Herbert Schurman in- troduced two resolutlons. one of which provided names for the streets, avenues, courts and crescents at the recently opened Hillcrest sub-division. The other approved. for zoning purposes. that the land north of the for- mer town boundaries that w a s annexed through an act of the Legislative Assembly last Ap- rli. be designated as being wi- thin the confines of the residen- tlal zone of the town.

Herbert Schurman, not- ed following the police report, submitted by Ohief S.D.A. Wan namaker. that parking meter collections for August had been $1,105.70 which he said was "probably triple the July collec- tions".

He said a parking lot has been made available next to the ol fire hall. on the west side, for 30 minute parking to assist motorists in finding parking
