Sue Burton will be running as well as Steve Ligtfoot, January 3 from Reeses Cor- ners to London. Sue buys lot of gas, so she had plenty of time to read the notice about this epic run. She too wanted to be a part of such a great Canadian event. If you see her out jogging, with her much maligned canine companions, you will know she'll be in good form to carry the torch. Ace and Jack may go with her on January 3 and then again may not. It's hard to make a living, writing about people and events in a small town. You should call me yourselves. I am therefore most grateful to Bill Eberhart and Cliff Freeman, who took the trouble to tell me about Sue. Last year she was given a Life Saving Award, by the Heart and Stroke Foundation, their highest honor. This was in recognition of the fact that she had administered CPR when a staff member had collapsed. It is those crucial few minutes, before the am- bulance arrives that can save a life. Our firefighters are well trained in this technique, but Sue feels everyone should have the knowledge. A course was offered here, but no tat., Councillor Pat Muratori and Torrie McKenzie have returned from an eventful holiday in Europe. Their plane had to make an emergency landing in the Azores, due to an engine failure. Pat's luggage was, and is lost, and coming home they were trapped in the Air Canada strike. Undaunted, they thoroughly enjoyed their stay in Portugal. The Huron County Architectural Con- sevatory held their annual Christmas meeting at the Little Inn this week. Bayfield members were much in evidence and ap- plauded loudly when Reeve Dave Johnston spoke of our determination to retain the town hall for it's original purpose, but not at the expense of the taxpayers. Different plans are about, but are on hold until January. The firefighters could use more toys, to be repaired at the Blue Water Centre. The Lit- tle Inn has a magnificent Christmas tree in the lounge and Gayle and Pat invite us to br- ing gifts for needy county children to place under it. Gifts should be identified as for a boy or girl and the age suitable. Our warmest sympathy for Bruce and An- ny Johnston in the loss of their new born baby. Goderich OPP to provide service By Paul Rudan BAYFIELD - At a planning and finance meeting here on November 26, the commit- tee members were informed by Sgt. Turn- bull of the Goderich detachment of the OPP, that the Village of Bayfield has been approv- ed for extended service. Extended service means that Bayfield will provide an office for the OPP in their municipal building. The office will not be a manned detachment, but it provides a base for officers who are patrolling the village. They can use the office to write reports or use it as a shelter in case they are snowed in. According to Sgt. Turnbull, "This is a step to get back into community type policing. The office gives us added exposure in the community. We're such a mobile force that we are going back to personal service. Peo- ple can come m (to the office) when there is a cruiser there, if they have a need." At council on December 7, councillors received three tenders for the building of an office for the OPP. The contract was award- ed to Jo Koene who tendered the bid of $2,950. The office is to be completed by January 15, 1988. Approval of system delayed By Paul Rudan • BAYFIELD - At the council meeting here on December 7, council delayed the ap- proval of a drainage and water system for eight lots, pending the report of the village's engineer. William Armstrong, on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Gary Darnbrough, presented council with a plan of drainage and water lines for eight lots on the corner of Lidderdale and Cameron Streets. Mr. Armstrong then informed council that the lines have already been placed in the ground on the properties. He reported that he thought that the system was adequate because the last time two inches of rain fell, there was little increse in the amount of water displaced in the ditch from the drainage lines. Councillor Cliff Freeman replied to Mr. Armstrong, "Once you put houses on those lots you're going to displace two or three times the amount of water going into the drain. This is a matter for the engineer to look at." Clerk -Treasurer Patrick Graham also stated that he thought that Mr. Armstrong should have presented council with the plans for the drainage and water system prior to putting them in place. The reason being, they might not be sufficient or meet regulations. Council also expressed concern that flooding might occur on Lidderdale Street as a result of inadequate drainage and that any accident that happened would cause the village to be liable. Council said that it would inform Mr. Armstrong on their decision, after consulta- tion with the engineer. Drop gifts off at the Little Inn By Helen Owen BAYFIELD - The Christmas Bureau of the Children's Services Centre of Goderich is appealing for gifts, and Bayfield residents wishing to donate should note that these will be received at the Little Inn, and then pass- ed on to make Christmas a happy occasion for a needy child. Please mark on the present whether it is appropriate for a boy or girl, and also the age range.

Clan Gregor Residents Christmas Dinner On December 1, residents of Clan Gregor Apartments and their friends gathered at the Village Inn for their annual Christmas dinner. After enjoying the meal they returned to the apartment building for a social evening with music supplied by Abbie Craig. Rev. George Youmatoff presented the gifts from the Christmas tree. Seniors' News On December 3, the Bayfield Diners' Club met for their fifth midday luncheon, and the second at the Little Inn. There was a good attendance and everyone seemed to enjoy both the meal and the company.
