Lions Club request
Uyth council approve
By Rod Hilts
On July 4, Blyth council
passed a resolution that the
Blyth Lions Club be granted
' rmission to operate two
beer gardens; one on August
4, 5, 6 and 7, in connection
with a 32 team slo-pitch ball
tournament and the other on
September 10 and 11 in
connection with the Huron
Steam Threshers Show.
On September 10 and 11,
the beer gardens will be held
outside in the Lions Park. On
August 4, 5, 6 and 7 the beer
gardens will be set up on the
arena floor and the grass
area south of the arena will
be used as well.
After hearing the request
from Lions Club members
Murray Manning and Al
Donaldson, council passed
the motion in a recorded vote
of 3-2.
Mr. Donaldson told council
that the Lions Club depended
a lot on revenue from the
beer gardens in their fund
raising.
Councillors Albert Wasson
and William Howson were
both opposed to the beer
gardens. Both councillors
said they appreciated what
the Lions Club does for the
community. However, as
Mr. Howson put it, "I can't
change my mind, it's a
moral issue."
Councillors Lloyd Sippel
and William Manning
supported the beer tent
proposal. Reeve Tom
Cronin's vote in favor of the
resolution broke the tie.
Council also heard a
request from the Bain-
toneers baseball team to
operate a beer gardens on
July 29, 30 and 31.
Two team representatives
told council they would like
permission to operate a beer
gardens out of the
eer Gardens
Thresher's shed outside of
the arena. The Baintoneers
had also planned to haasmi
band performing in the
during one of the evenings.
Council questioned the
representatives on why they
weren't using the arena
facilities for such an event.
The duo replied that last
year people couldn't watch
the baseball games while
they were in the arena beer
gardens.
Councillor Howson ex-
plained that in the past there
has been problems with the
beer gardens. He said last
year's entertainment
brought about noise com-
plaints from some neigh-
boring residents.
Council agreed that if the
Baintoneers held the beer
garden in the Threshermen's
shed, noise could be an even
larger problem than m the
past. Council passed a

MTC denies request for
$15,000
Council received a letter
from the Ministry of
Transportation and Com-
munications (MTC) ex-
plaining that no additional
funding is available for
Blyth's 1983 program.
The $15,000 that council
had applied for was to cover
the cost of paving sections of
Dinsley, Drummond and
Wellington Streets.
Rather than cut the road
program, council decided to
try and obtain funds from the
Ontario Neighborhood ._
Improvement Program
(ONIP) grant of $100,000,
which the village recently
received
The problem is the ONIP
funds are to be distributed
over a three-year period and
may not be available until
December. If funds are not
available through ONIP,
council will dip into its
reserve fund to pay for the
remainder of the road
program.
Clerk Larry Walsh said he
expects to call tenders for
the program in a couple of
weeks and that construction
may begin in 45 days.

Blyth will receive $100,000
through ONIP program
Blyth will receive a $100,000 grant under
the Ontario Neighborhood Improvement
Program (ONIP), Municipal Affairs and
Housing Minister Claude Bennett has an-
nounced.
In addition to Blyth, 65 other Ontario
municipalities will benefit from $12 million
in ONIP grants.
ONIP was launched in 1981, after the
unilateral cancellation by the federal
government of the Community Services
Contribution Program. Since then, the pro-
vince has provided $23.8 million to 76
municipalities.
Under ONIP, the province contributes 50
percent toward the cost of the
neighborhood improvement project, in-
cluding roads, sidewalks, parks, com-
munity centres and recreational facilities.
Projects are to be completed over the
next four years, with provincial grants
allocated in installments as the work pro-
gresses.
ONIP is one of a series of provincial in-
itiatives to assist municipalities and the
private sector in community renewal ac-
tivities. The community improvement pro-
grams also include downtown and main
street revitalization.
Her tape of a church service
showed what wonderful sing-
ing voices the Fijians
possess.
The audience delighted in
winding narrow roads,
flowering trees and plants,
telephone poles of the kind
used in Canada in the early
years of the century, a queer
looking cow, underwater pic-
tures which Clare took from
a boat, a bird sitting atop a
tea house's thatched roof,
and the ceremony of an of-
ficial welcome at a
-Methodist Church where the
minister was also Fiji's am-
bassador to New Zealand.
On display were articles
Clare McGowan had pur-
chased at a Fiji market.
Among them, a policeman
doll, an Australian swagman
doll, and a turtle, the
pictures
emblem of Fiji.
Miss McGowan was in-
troduced by Adeline Camp-
bell and in appreciation
presented with a gift by
president June Peck who
also during the business ses-
sion announced two dates:
November 5, the UCW
bazaar for which Susan
Howson will convene the Us-
ed Clothing department, and
August 2, the induction ser-
vice for Rev. Ken Bauman at
which UCW will serve
refreshments.
At the United Church last
Sunday Rev. Arthur Gard-
ner of Goderich delivered an
inspiring sermon entitled
God's Welcoming Arms.
Mr. Gardner's sermon
next Sunday is entitled

Seaforth arena
seeks tax rebate
SEAFARTH - The Seaforth
and District Community
Centre continues a battle for
a $32,000 sales tax rebate.
Seaforth Clerk, Jim
Crocker told council at their
June 15 meeting the initial,/
request for a rebate was
denied. A contract was
signed with the general
contractor, XDG Limited of
Kitchener on April 2i9, 1982 to
construct the faci*. "The
sales tax office in Kitchener
said the building was sales
tax exempt because it was a
municipal project."
In January, the
management committee was
told the opposite, "Only the

prices contracts entered into
prior to May 14, 1983 is
subject to refund. Since the
