The theme for the confer- ence was "The Co-ordination and Planning of Recreation Ser- vices". Dr. Edward G. Pleva, University of Western Ontario, Dept. of Geography, spoke on Friday morning about the many. plans of Ontario outdoor recreation. We as individuals with special responsibilities to our own i,rofessions and "job descriptions' must recognize our places in a rather complex framework of systems. ActuaI- lv, a series of systems may op- erate simultaneously in an ar- ea without conflict. A given park or open space may have been provided and is now maintained by several gov- ernmental levels. For example Fanshawe Dam and Thames Valle; Park were built and are maintained by federal, provin- cial and local governments un- der the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority. It is easy for us to think of our special interests and respon- sibilities as being the most im- portant element in recreational resources, when in reality, whatever importance they have is their relation to other re- sources in one or more complex and interrelated systems, Our planning must be relat- ed to a complex framework of interests that is fragmented, multi -layered, multi-purpose and multi -interpretive. The fact that the challenge is to a difficult task does not relieve us of the responsibility to at- tempt it. The delegates were divided into small groups according to 1 the size of town or city for dis- cussion. Co-ordination is es- sential for maximum use ofre- sources, personnel, services and finances. A dinner and social evening was held in Cleary Auditori- um, A beautiful view across the river and the lights of De- troit and a very interesting speaker made it a very enjoy- able evening, Robert Cho. queue, Deputy Commissioner, National Centennial Adminis- tration, was the speaker. He spoke in glowing terms of the amount of work that has been done all across the country for the Centennial. Ile also spoke about Quebec and gave a much better under- standing of the situation. "We are not experiencing this pre- sent crisis because we are dead, but because we are alive and because our development from the Atlantic to Pacific demands a readjustment, a realignment of our forces, an inventory of our stock", he said. Tim Leishman, Director of Community Programmes Branch of Ontario Department of Education, spoke about the past, present and future of the branch. The broad purpose of the Community Programmes Branch is to assist communities to provide, through their awn resources, opportunities for each individual to seei< personal growth and to maintain a high standard of physical and mental health. A bus tour of Windsor and Prune Roses Before the Leaves Appear Roses, particularly the hy- brid tea type should be pruned each spring before the bushes leaf out. Pruning is one of the most important steps in improv- ing the quality and quantity of blooms during the following months. Each plant should be considered individually and pruned according to it's habit and amount of growth, The plants should not be pruned too severely, lightprun- ing results in larger plants with more blooms. First cut back all the dead wood, weak growths; and remove all cross- ing branches. There should be five or six strong growths left which may be shortened accord- ing to their growth, to give un- iform appearance and balance to the plants. The final cuts should be made so that the top buds are on the outside of the plant, thus ensuring that the centre of the bush is open and not overcrowded. Floribundas may be pruned similarly to hybrid teas, To obtain as many blooms as pos- sible the pruning should be light. Dwarf polyanthas need not be pruned in the spring ex- cept to remove dead wood. Most climbers and ramblers bear their flowering wood on canes grown the previous year and are best pruned after flow- ering. The old flowering wood should be removed and young growths from the base tied in to replace them. Some large - flowered clrrnhers, however, produce their flowers on later- als borne on older wood. These may be pruned now by shorten- ing of the laterals. Detroit was arranged for those interested. It proved to be very impressive, showing a tremen- dous co-operation between Parks, Recreation and Board of Education. The schools and facilities are used every day un- til 0.30 or 10.30 in the eve- ning. Detroit prepared a Summer Bulletin and Winter Bulletin for the delegates, free of charge. They were also taken to Cobo Hall, a cultural and recreation centre, Consultation Sessions were held Saturday afternoon and Dr. Edward Pleva gave the closing address. Delegates stressed the need for greater co-ordination with other area recreation services to eliminate the waste. of time, money and talent in needless duplication. They said also there should be greater co-op- eration between departments of recreation and boards of educa- tion. As Tim Leishman said, "We have neither time nor place for professional jealousies, organ- izational feuds or for status - seeking by an individual oror- ganization." One of the resolutions ad- opted by the conference dealt with an apparent land steal of Peche Island in Detroit Riverby THE CHRISTIHfl SCIENCE fflOflITOR Accurate Complete News Coverage „Printed in ftp BOSTON 05 ANGELES LONDON 1 Year $22 6 Months $11 3 Months $5.50 Clip this advertisement and return 0 with your cheek or Money order to: The Christian Silence Monitor One Norway Street Boston 1S, Mss.
