Kathy Bromley of Blyth was one of the star models when a fashion
show was held at the Benmiller Inn on Sunday with the proceeds for
local projects sponsored by Epilepsy Canada. Modelling with her is
Dr. John Girvin who operated on her in May to help relieve the
symptoms of her disorder.

to operate like that.”
Councillor Howson said that it
wasthein tention of theboa rd to
stick with budgets but unexpected
costs arise as last year when a brine
chiller broke down. Bytryingto
keep its budget down, he said, the
board had probably not kept up
with maintenance over the years.
Morris Councillor Howie Mor
ton joined his reeve in criticism of
the Blythoperation. Hepointedout
that in Brussels a catering group
gives thousands of dollars a year to
help with the upkeep of the arena.
In Belgrave when a new roof had to
be put on the arena people raised
$7.000and donated another $7,000
in free labour. Meanwhile when
the chiller broke down in Blyth the
entire cost was picked up by the
municipalities involved. “This is a
definite stumbling block in
Morris,” he said. “It's difficult to
tax people in those areas to give to a
non-fundraising arena.” If there
was some fundraising going on to
help costs in Blyth it would be
easier to explain to Morris tax
payers, he said.
Blyth councillor Lloyd Sippel
defended volunteers from his
village saying it wasn’t as if they
hadn’t been doing any fundrais
ing, pointing to the successful
campaign to raise money for a lift
for the handicapped.
Councillor Howson pointed out
that in years gone by the proceeds
of operating the bar in the
community hall had provided the
same kind of financial boost as the
catering group in Brussels had.
But when the group had learned
that it was illegal for it to operate
the bar, that revenue had been lost
and had resulted in the deficit in
1986 of$10,000. He said that so far
this year the arena is basically
holding its own financially.
In the long run the cost issue
remained basically unresolved,
with the board saying it is presently
conducting a new survey to see
where users come from so a new
breakdown can be set out. (Morris
township is also surveying its
ratepayers.)
The agreement was changed so
that the municipalities can name
whoever they want as their repre
sentatives, be they councillors or
citizens. It was agreed that the
chairman should have a vote and
that the Blyth clerk-treasurer
won’t have, although Blyth may
appoint someone else to give it the
same number of votes as before.
Although in the longrun there
seemed to be general agreement,
no firm commitment could be made
by the councils atthattime. All
councils but Blyth were to meet
yesterday (Tuesday) and consider
the revised agreement. Councillor
Howson hoped their approval of
the revised draft would be forward-
ed to the Blyth council so it could
make final approval for its meeting
November 10.
