coordinator
is appointed
Eight Bicentennial coor-
dinators have been appointed
to areas in Ontario by the
Ministry of Citizenship and
Culture, to encourage com-
munities to celebrate the pro-
vince's 200th birthday in 1984.
Michael Cavanagh has
been named coordinator in
the southwest area, which in-
cludes the counties of Elgin,
Essex, Huron, Kent, Lamb -
ton, Middlesex, Oxford and
Perth.
The coordii,ators will assist
in developing local Bicenten-
nial committees as well as act
as a liaison between the com-
munities and the Ontario
government. They will be
able .to provide information
regarding grants and other
bicentennial programs
throughout the province. In
addition, these area represen-
tatives will be encouraging
organizations and com-
munities to coordinate their
activites to prevent overlap-
ping of events.
"The Bicentennial theme,
Celebrating Together, depicts
exactly what we are trying to
do," says the Honourable
Susan Fish, Minister of
Citizenship and Culture.
"Every community will have
the opportunity to celebrate
its heritage. We want
everyone to join in saluting
the lives and achievements of
those who have made each
community great, and
therefore, this province
great-"
Mr. Cavanagh can be con-
tacted in London at

Horses compete
for Lupus fund
The Ontario Lupus Associa-
tion's London branch is
holding its fifth annual benefit
Arabian horse show at Ilder-
ton fairgrounds on July 31.
The show is put on in co-
operation with area Arabian
horse owners, and all pro-
ceeds go to aid lupus research
in Ontario. In the past four
years more than $20,000 has
been raised.
Lupus (short for systemic
lupus erythematosus I is a
chronic, life-long rheumatic
disease which afflicts 75 in
every 100,000 people, and can
cause damage through in-
flammation to any organ or
part of the body. Its cause is
unknown and as yet there is
no cure.
Formed in 1979 under the
auspices of The Arthritis
Society, the London branch is
a volunteer organization
devoting its efforts to inform-
ing the public about this
disease, and providing sup-
port for lupus sufferers and
their families.
The horse show is the
branch's only fund-raising ef-
fort. Last year $8,000 was
realized. largely through
sponsorship of 43 classes of
competition by area
businesses, groups and in-
dividuals, and donation of en-
try fees to the cause by the
horse owners.
The branch has more than
70 members. half from Lon-
don and the rest from sur-
rounding communities.
Show competition starts at
9:30 a.m. and admission to
the public is free
