Coun. Bill Clifford spoke against the mo- tion saying that he represents more than the parents present at the meeting. "We are elected to represent everyone and I've heard from many, many tax- payers who don't support day care," he said. Though he said he recognized the need for day care and had no objections to the start-up costs, Clifford said he was con- cerned about the ongoing operating costs. "It sounds good to say those details can be worked out but those people using the facilities should be paying for the short- fall," he said. Coun. Jim Searls agreed with Clifford saying he too' would only agree with day ,care if it were self-supporting. "I cannot agree on it being a burden on taxpayers for years to come. We all know people with their sewers flooded and their basements flooded and, we have to deal with them too," he said. He added that all the day care centres in London are privately -run.. "Anything run by the government always loses money," he said. Deputy -Reeve John Doherty said he didn't believe Administrator Larry Mc- Cabe had complied with all of council's re- quests from the last meeting saying there was no meeting with the Squash Club, or surrounding townships and no considera- tion of insurance costs. McCabe answered that the proposed renovations to the Mini Community Centre would in no way affect the Squash Club and therefore a meeting was not necessary. And the townships have indicated they'll sit down and discuss the issue once the ad- ministrative committee works out all the details. "If this is such a viable operation, I'm not sure why the people involved don't ' form a group. They would be eligible for the same grants as we are," said Doherty.. Donald responded saying a private non- profit group would not be eligible for capital grants. Voting Yea were Coun. John Stringer, Coun. Peter McCauley, Coun. Glen Carey.;;. and Mayor Eileen Palmer. Voting Nay Were Reeve Harry Worsell;; Coun. Jim Searls, Coun. Bill Clifford andd' Deputy -Reeve John Doherty. Coun.Stan Profit was absent. ' Jazzvox asks. Goderich council for financial help Jazzvox, a vocal group at Goderich District Collegiate Institute, has asked Goderich council for financial assistance. Its request was referred to the ad- ministrative committee. "To my knowledge they have never come to the town for assistance. Yet they are some fo the best examples of am- bassadors of good will for Goderich and a youth organization worth supporting and promoting whole-heartedly," says Heather Lyons in a letter to council. The group requested financial help towards a workshop it is attending on Oct. 24 in Michigan. Members of Jazzvox raised $600 each to attend a competition in Vancouver at Expo" '86 by selling pizzas, working at part-time jobs and singing for donations at public functions.

A 7 to 1 recorded dote passed a motion to pay for the sodding and seeding of the southside boulevards between Eldon Street and Bayfield Road on Suncoast Drive at Goderich council's Sept. 29 meeting. "It's our responsibility because we cash- ed the letter of credit. We may have pro- crastinated since when we finally cashed it; there wasn't enough money to do it. But, I don't think irt'good con§cience',we can now turn over the work to the citizens," said Coun. Bill Clifford. Council received a letter from several residents of Suncoast Drive asking that the boulevard between the sidewalk and the curb be seeded with a minimum of six in- ches of topsoil. "It is our understanding that the town of Goderich forclosed on Suncoast Estatesry. Limited and is now the legal owner," they;: said in the letter.

Drums and rhythm instruments from around the world are the focus of the dramatic and exciting first event of Blyth Festival's 1986/87 Kid's. Series. The show is appropriately called Drums! and is being held on Saturday, October 4 at 2 .pm, at Blyth Memorial Hall. The drummer/musician/performer is Bill Usher, who during the show surrounds himself with dozens of drums, continually changing costumes and masks to create stories with sounds and rhythms. He enter- tains the audience with everything from New Orleans Jazz and rock 'n roll to music and beats from Africa and the Carribean. The show consists of a series of vignettes in which he tells stories about his ex- periences with different cultures as he en- countered them travelling around the world. Asa musician he has had the opportunity to learn drumming from people for whom the drum beat is not just, a rhythm, but a language. A fascination with the great advances in electronic music has led Mr. Usher to in- clude some high technology in the way he produces and synthesizes the sounds onstage. He demonstrates how basic drum sounds and rhythms are transformed for the. recording studio and for live performance with the aid of this electronic technology. The script for Drums! was co -written by Robert Morgan, winner of the 1982 in- augural Chalmers Children's Play Award. Robert Morgan is a familiar name in Blyth as he participated in Blyth Festival's Youth Workshops in our 1984 season. - Bill Usher has had long and involved in- terest in childrens' musical entertains ierit.
