The 1975 error, disFovered by municipal auditors, had a centre's deficit recorded at $124,469.84 when in- deed it should have only been $56,7-66.03. Worm. Way out of country ZURICH - There's a good possibility that three United States citizens involved in a fraudulent worm operation will never be brought to trial in Canada. Although warrants for the arrest of Richard Taaurd, Thomas D.Stiler and Gail Morey are still outstanding, according to Constable Sam Landry of the London detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, , "We don't ever feel we'll see them again." The trio skipped the country in March after being charged, with misleading represen- tation of the projected market and 5 sub- sequential profits from the sale of worms.. They were also charged with working illegally in Canada. While the warrants will be held for five years before they will .be reviewed, the only development in the case since March is the two vehicles, which were registered to Mr. Taarud under the name of International Ver- miculture Service have been disposed of.' The books have not been questioned in the past years until recently when a proposal for a $250,000 addition to the rec centre forced auditors to look into the records. During this time, the deficit at the centre • has been over- stated by $68,703.81. Tuc.kersmith Township Clerk Jack McLaughlin said that it was very unfortunate that this error occurred, especially due to the controversy over an addition that exists today. He said that the township council would like to apologize for the inconvenience this may. have caused and would like to advise this deficit should have been re -ported --- as only $56,880.19. The council and the auditors will meet and steps will be taken to make the necessary adjustment necessary to reflect the actual deficit situation. St. Marys students reject junk food ST. MARYS - Grade 12 home economics students at the St. Marys high school are having a hard time keeping up with the demand for nut snacks they have been preparing for their fellow students. It's obvious that the health food snacks are popular for students. They sell at 35 ee s a pack, and are bringifilig in an average of $55 a day. The idea behind the health food snacks was offered as part of the, recent Nutrition Week. Schools in Ontario were encourgaed to participate in the week to .bring at- tention to the importance of proper nutrition and to help assess the nutritional standards • of young Canadians. Along with the snacks, and a popular nutrition quiz, a group of students conducted random surveys on what was being eaten •in the school's cafrtr'ria. These who were found eating a balanced meal had their names placed in a box and each day two winners were• awarded buttons which said, "Pure Delight Snack Right."
