Kaufman The Wednesday meeting was a little different due to the fact that we didn't wear our uniforms. This is because on Thursday we were to wear our full uniforms and make sure we were at our best! This is because on Thursday we were interviewed by 'a lady from the Advance -Times. She talked to all of us about CJ'and then she went with us when we went down to the bathhouse to divide the equipment we will be taking to CJ. She took several "in ac- tion" shots of our troop at work. As the dividing went on I found myself with the Hi -C hosts ball tourney BELGRAVE — The Bel - grave Hi -C held their first softball tournament at the Belgrave Park on Saturday.' Groups of young people from Walton, Blyth, Brussels and Belgrave participated in the round-robin tournament, which commenced at 9 a.m. and continued throughout the .day. The games were umpired by Paul McGee, Bill Coultes and Doug McDougall, with base umps provided by various teams all day. Brussels defeated Bel - grave 20'-7 to win the consola- tion trophy for the day. Walton won a close game against Blyth 20-16 to win the championship trophy. A barbeque for all team members followed the final game. The Hi -C thanks all the groups and their leaders as well as all the others who helped to make the day successful. almighty, the one thing .that will make this trip suc- cessful, the coffee pot!' At the Wednesday meeting we went out to the camp and worked at .cleaning up the cabin for the United Church choir, which will be using our cabin for its annual cam - pout. We made a fire pit and finished a septic tank. Thisftweekend we will also be having a campout at the bush. We've divided the bush up like this: they get the cabin, but we get the bush! 111y J i>fltay Elston.

In late May, a senior Health Minis- try official apparently asked the committee to get the re- port out quickly so that the legislation' could be intro- duced. .The legislation al- ready has been tabled. Meanwhile, the executive director of the Ontario Hos- pital Association has ac- cused the minister of taking advantage of East General's problems . to justify giving the province far-reaching powers over public hospitals.
