"Maybe people think the festivities are too far off to get excited yet but we need names now so we can get organized." he says. The committee hopes to keep a listing of billets at the log cabin information booth on the Square. "We need lots of places and we think lots of people in town have empty rooms. Maybe they're just hesitant to take in strangers which is un- derstandable," says Squire. He predicts that there may be as many as one thousand people needing places to stay. If they can't find places, he says, they will either have to return to their own homes or go to other municipalities. "I'm afraid we may be swamped with people and where are we going to put them? Goderich doesn't have that many hotels and motels„” says Squire. He says the Jubilee 3 committee is still hoping "to hit a patriotic chord" with the citizens of Goderich in response to the need for billets during this peak time. "The town has spent thousands of dollars to give the citizens , something to. remember but we are han- dicapped due to the shortage of accommodations," says Squire. He urges Goderich citizens to open up their homes to help make Goderich's 150th bir- thday celebrations a success.
