Mr. and Mrs. George Piercey of Elora and Mr. and Mrs. Hector Gunn of Fergus visited Wednesday with Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Miller. The numbers of people with weight problems and the possible medical com- plications which can occur as a result of obesity prompted her to start at the bottom and teach nutrition to the people at an early age. "It seemed more sensible to approach it from a child's view," she said, and her idea "f'p'pears to have been well 'received. Over 30 public and separate school students enrolled for the eight-week course. Keeping the attention of that many 12 to 14 year-olds experience for the children. She and physiotherapist Brenda Edgar, also from the Wingham hospital, have put together the sessions' to include quizzes, films, take- home activities and exer- cises. . It isnot a "lose weight" program, said Mrs. Blagrave, but rather a fun wayto learn about- what's right to eat. Hopefully, she added, some of what the children are learning will spill over to the parents and other family members. The eight-week program tkn,' and •. will be no easy task, but Mrs. will come to an end with a 11,;- ask c f-ean b k ike and -a -nutrition Easter Seal telethon grosses $48,000 The first locally -run telethon for Easter Seals was held over the weekend at CKNX and grossed over $48,000 for disabled children. Al Skelton, a CKNX spokesman, said the station is very pleased with the outcome of the telethon. The exact amount raised will not be known until the pledges all have been collected and the various service clubs involved have deducted expenses. Neither CKNX, Easter Seals nor the local Lions Club, the service group in charge of the telethon, had projected any total or goal, simply because they had no idea what to expect, said Mr. Skelton. Ontario was the only province in Canada which ran the weekend telethon, but over $1,000,000 was raised province wide. A simultaneous telethon was conducted in the United States over the weekend. Mr. Skelton said there were 18 "phone banks" located across the area, manned by volunteers taking pledges. Locally the Wingham Sears order office was converted into a phone bank for the telethon. The telethon commenced last Saturday evening at 7 p.m., broke off for the hockey game and then continued straight through until Sunday at 5 p.m. Sunday's beautiful spring weather may have hurt the pledges, Mr. Skelton said, but they have no way of measuring the effect since it is the first time an Easter Seal telethon has been held at CKNX. In addition to the crew of CKNX staffers and volun- teers, Mi. Skelton reported 20 families with handicapped children from throughout the area were on -air guests. As far as another telethon is concerned, Mr. Skelton said the station cannot commit itself, too far in advance. But considering the success of this year's telethon', it is a distinct possibility. be 9«xt, }fwi.anldinteresting pienicsprnetiti),ie in May. Business and Professional Directory Carol E. Homuth, O.D.
