Along with this we have developed specific ways to identify diseases, treat them and sometimes prevent them by the use of vaccines. But, despite this vast improvement a threat to life still exists today from a group of well known killers who have been around for a long time. I. Polio 7. Venereal disease 2. Diphtheria 8, Viral & Serum hepatitis 3. Tetanus 9, Tuberculosis 4. Measles 10. Rubella 5. Small pox 11, Typhoid 6. Influenza 12, Cholera It takes constant surveillance and quick reaction to outbreaks by health authorities at all levels to prevent epidemics and keep these killers under control.

By SHERRY CECIL A representative from the Ontario Housing Corporation last week gave Exeter council the go- ahead to conintue with plans for the construction of senior, citizen apartments. "The next step i. choosing a site," development officer, W,D'Arcy Halligan, told council. He said the OHC would prefer the town to do this, "After all, it's your town. You know better than we do," he said. The only stipulations are that the site be close to the core area and it must have sewers and be properly zoned, with adequate square footage. For 32 units, the number approved by council, footage would have to be close to one acre, Mr. Halligan said, "A property agent will be coming to Exeter within two or three weeks", he said. "If he gets two or three sites, he will ask some council members to take a look at them," In the meantime, council has formed a three-man committee to look into the acquisition of a lot. Members of the committee are Mayor Jack Delbridge, Clerk Eric Carscadden and Councillor Tom MacMillan. Once a site has been chosen, the OHC will ask for proposal calls, or submission of designs. The OHC will select one of the designs and will then come back to council for its approval. "The town is free to turn it down if it wishes," said Mr. Halligan. "We will do nothing without acceptance by the town." Council approved construction of 32 units almost a month ago after conducting a survey to determine the need for senior citizen housing. The buildings are to be two-storey attached, with 462 square feet to a unit. All are to be single bedroom units, strictly for senior citizens. "We don't house older people with children," Mr. Halligan added. "What happens if the number of units we need changes?" asked Councillor Bruce Shaw. "Say we find later we only need 20 units?" "I'm not worried about this," said Mr. Halligan. "we don't overbuild. If anything, we un- derbuild." "Well, then, are we being too conservative asking for 32?" Mr, Shaw asked. "The study shows you need 32, let's go with 32," said Mr. Halligan, "You can always ask for more later, if they're needed. We're very flexible. "However," he said, "we don't want to be tied to 32 units. We'd like to build 32 right off but until we get a plan, we would like to have a free hand, "If we can get a hold of enough land for only 15 units," he said, "we'll take it, but keep looking for more." Mr. Halligan said that the OlIC can option the land for the housing or the town can option it and sell it to OHC, Clerk Eric Carscadden estimated a month ago it would be a year and a half before prospective tenants would have to sign application forms and two years before the housing would be ready. The cost will be paid entirely by the federal and provincial governments, except for seven and a half percent of any annual deficit which will be paid by the town. The new housing is ex- pected to cut costs to many senior citizens by over $20 per month. Men are slightly bettor newspaper readers than women — 81 percent as against 79 per- cent, according to research by
