The Citizen, 1994-04-27, Page 6PAGE 6. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27,1994. Buckle up and be counted Fast-food fare Diana and Doug Doerr opened Pizza Plus earlier this month, on Queen Street in Blyth. The new business offers pizza, subs, pop, milkshakes and caesar salads for take­ out. Things going well for new Blyth pizzeria, owners say With the arrival of spring, a fast­ food, take-out restaurant has opened in Blyth, "just right for grabbing something and going to the park," says Diana Doerr. Diana and her husband Doug opened Pizza Plus almost a month ago and "things are going quite well," she says. The business offers a selection of pizza, subs, ice cream, milk shakes, pop and a new feature this past week, caesar salad and garlic bread. "We are always open to sugges­ tions for items our customers would like to see on the menu," Diana says. At present, Pizza Plus is open Tuesday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 1 a.m. The Doerrs moved to Blyth almost a year ago with their chil­ dren Shelly, 14, and Derick, 11 and are enjoying the community very much, says Diana. The Ministry of Transportation has initiated a volunteer program which will give the province need­ ed information without a large cost, says spokesperson Darja Ros. Communities across the province will be taking part in a program on April 30 between 1:30 and 3:30 p.m., to count the number of drivers complying with the seatbelt laws. Volunteers will be standing at a busy intersection and counting cars as they stop. A tally will be taken of the number of occupants wear­ ing shoulder belts. A percentage of compliance will then be tabulated by the Ministry to Historical Society hears the history of the phone Continued from page 2 pointed out where they travelled many miles (by foot) to the different areas. Many of the battles between the Indians and the whites were described, one being between General Brock and Tecumseh. Laura Secord also had an important role in the wars. She travelled over 20 miles to a Canadian Camp to warn soldiers of an upcoming battle, which she had overheard the enemy planning. In closing Mrs. Lichty quoted the following, "But let us learn from these stories and remember to treat all mankind with justice and love, not hatred, greed and superiority." Mr. Latham thanked Mrs. Lichty see which areas of the province are buckling up. Ms Ros says the government feels this is a cost efficient way to receive data on the smaller, outly­ ing areas instead of just looking at Toronto's numbers. "We approached the Ministry of Health, drinking and driving activist groups and others con­ cerned with safe driving to find ‘volunteers for the project," she says, "and we have 550 participants across the province." "Some municipalities are even challenging each other to see who will have the highest percentage," says Ms Ros. for her very interesting and inform­ ative story and presented her with a gift- The history of the telephones, "When they came to Brussels 109 years ago" was given by Mrs. Fraser. Mr. Latham thanked her for this story and for arranging the meeting. The 106th Annual Conference of the Ontario Historical Society will be held on May 13 and 14 at the Ramada Hotel, Hamilton. Ms Fraser is to be the delegate. Lunch was served by the Majestic Women's Institute. The next meeting will be held on May 19 at 8 p.m. in the Hensail Presbyterian Church. Guest speaker will be Ian McAllister whose topic will be "Hay History Highlights". • The North Huron area has only two volunteers so far in Wingham, and it is hoped there will be more participation for the October cam­ paign. Social Contract takes big cut Continued from page 1 the regulations changed, HCBE lost approximately $290,000. The Social Contract took another $2,000,000 from the budget. Increases in the grants were seen in the small school grants and in transportation. The Board's 1994 budget, including the millrate increase of 6.1 per cent will be discussed further at the May 2 regular board meeting, at which time a motion will be made to approve or reject the figures.

The B&W Trailblazers Snowmo­ bile Club offered to maintain a con­ siderable length of the line, he said.
