Additional money to purchase the scanner will come from the hospital's capital reserve account and local donations,. said Kirvan. The operation of the machine' will be covered by the hospital's operating budget, he added. One of the reasons the IPM committee chose to help purchase a CAT Scanner was because there is a 30-40 day wait for a scan in Owen Sound. Kirvan explained that a neurolo- gist won't see a patient until a scan is done. "By having a scanner here, physicians will get patients to spe- cialists much. quicker." Expansion to the hospital's laun- dry facility about five years ago resulted in creating some extra space. This space will be utilized to house the scanner, he added. CAT scans are becoming more and more common and helpful. For local patients, having a scan here will .mean travelling less to get the service, said Dr. Bajurny. A steering committee, consisting of Cumming, Maurice Donnelly, Stan Eby, Vern Inglis, Roy Pennington, Loran Peter and Don Scott, will make the official presen- tation to the health council and ministry. Eby said with all the pressures on Ontario's health care system, he see's this as "a catalyst in this area for hospitals to work together more." "This is something that will have long-lasting effects on the area. One of the spin-offs will be that it will attract medical manpower to the area", said Inglis. Dr. Mowbray said "A CAT Scan- ner has never been approved before in rural Ontario. This committee will have to convince the govern- ment it's a worthwhile project. I can't see how the government could turn this down." The slogan Bruce Beckons was important to the match, and Bruce will be beckoning again, added Donnelly. "This con)mittee will go before the government and continue to fight for the people of Bruce, and prove we in a small community can Io it," he said.

Member of `Chin' line dies The death of William (Bill) Chin, of Toronto, formerly of Lucknow, was announced in the Toronto Star last week. Those of long-time residence in the village will remember Mr. Chin as one of the famous trio on the Juvenile team who brought fame and recognition to the Sepoy Town in the latter years of the Second World War.

The Chin brothers had a try -out with Toronto Maple Leafs which was a rare occurrence in those days of a six team National Hockey League. "There was only natural ice to play on in the Lucknow arena, as well as most other arenas in the area. Most of the senior hockey talent, in those years, was in the Canadian Armed Forces fighting th e Second World War and the minor Juvenile hockey team took its place, packing the local arenas for each game."
