Air Force reunion in Kingston.
As one of the events associated with the
RCAF 60th anniversary, plans are nearing
completion for the reunion celebrating the
50th anniversary of the founding of the
Telecommunications Branch in the Royal
Canadian Air Force, to be held in the
Thompson Drill Hall at Canadian Forces
Base Kingston 25-26 May 1984.
More than 500 members, spouses and
friends of the RCAF Telecom community
and its successor, the air element of the
Communications and Electronics Branch
have registered to date. Festivities begin at
5 p.m. Friday May 25 with an evening of
reminiscing and renewing cif old acquain-
tances. A pancake brunch is offered at 9
a.m. May 26, with briefings and tours of the
CF School of Communications and Elec-
tronics, and the Communications and Elec-
tronics Museum offered throughout the day.
The event winds up with a buffet and dinner
dance on Saturday evening.
Pre -registration is required by May 11 to
the Air Force Telecom Reunion Committee,
Canadian Forces Base Kingston, Ontario
K7L 2Z2.
Notable members registered to date in-
clude Air Vice Marshall HB Godwin of
Belleville, who was the first RCAF Signals
Officer; Major-General RN Senior, of Ot-
tawa, the senior serving Telecom Officer in
the Canadian Forces; and Chief Warrant Of-
ficer E Delanie of Winnipeg, the senior serv-
ing Telecom Chief Warrant Officer.
The history of Air Force Telecom has
some interesting parallels with the Army
Signals organization it is now • connected
with through integration. In 1903, Majora
Carruthers of .Kingston formed_ the first
Canadian military signallers to provide all
of their communications, which they did un- •
til 1934. In June 1934, a small cadre of army
signallers resigned and rejoined the RCAF
to become the initial members of the RCAF
Signals Branch, ,training operators and
technicians. Both the RCAF Signals and Ar-
my Signals moved from Borden in the late
30s; Signals to Kingston and the RCAF to
Clinton, Ontario. After 30 years of separate
service, integration resulted in the closure
of Clinton, and RCAF Telecommunications
rejoined Army Signals to form the Com-
munications and Electronics Branch of the
Canadian Forces, with home base as
Kingston, Ontario.
Colonel : Florence, Chairman of the
organizing committee comments: "We are
absolutely delighted with the response from
the Communicatiin Technicians, "Com-
munication Operators, Radar Technicians
and Telecommunications Officers who have
responded to the reunion announcement. As

with so many reunions, our main concern is
that the local members from Kingston who
have not yet registered will leave it too late
and miss our pre -registration deadline. We
will have very little or no flexibility for late
registrants after May 11. Anyone wishing to
be with us is requested to get their name and
cheque into the committee as soon as possi-
ble.

MORRIS - Property taxes in Morris
Township will increase by 6.25 per cent this
year.
Clerk -Treasurer Nancy Michie reported
that council generally was quite pleased
that the increase was kept in line.
What this means is that a public school
supporter with a farm and residential pro-
perty assessed at $6,000 would pay $1,096 in
property taxes in 1984 which is $64 more
than last year or 6.25 per cent.
A separate school supporter with property
assessed at the same value would pay $1,108
in taxes, an increase of $72 over last year or
almost seven per cent.
The biggest single increase comes in the
county requisition which is up 21.03" per cent
to $119,262, an increase of $17,132 over 1983.
Morris Township will pay 5.11 per cent
