"Does the'tawn twant recreation an,d if so are we willing to pay ,for it," asked Leon Black. "We on the recleation 'committee are open for suggestions as to how' to make ends met.' "Recreation is a modern trend and there's nothing we can elo about it, said Mayor, Iluckins. "Suppose we get narrow minded and drop all recreation activities while places around us continue even at the loss of mioney. We would be criticized for that, too. If we can put aver recreation here, even at the loss of $12,000 a year, with juvenile delinquency the way it is today, I still think there's no better investment." Final decision was ;a resolution moved by Councillor R. Besse and seconded by Councillor James Donnelly that the Town Council carry out its agreement to finan- cially back the Goderidh Recrea- tion and Arena Committee and the Goderich Booster Club.
