William Cochrane was sworn into office to replace councillor Ivan Luther who resigned in June because of business press- ures. In last fall's municipal elect- ion, Cochrane received the most votes of any of the defeated cand- idates and was asked to fill the vacancy on that basis. Speaking for the volunteer group that has carried on first aid treatment and counselling on drug and emotional problems from a trailer located on River Road were Gary Carruthers and Howie Winder. Council was told the Centre was out of funds and would be forced to close down if addition- al monies were nor forthcoming. After Carruthers and Winder guaranteed council that they would be open at least on the weekends until Labour Day, the grant was approved. In answer to a question if any plans had been made for having the Centre open again next year, Carruthers said, "The chances are much better now than they were a few minutes ago before we were assured of the grant. In explanation to this, Car- ruthers said, "the Department of State is behind this project but must be assured of local support before federal monies will be contributed." Reeve John Payne criticized the department of secretary of state for encouraging and prom- oting projects for young people without making sure that funds are provided. "Some communities such as Grand Bend operate on small budgets, " the reeve said. "And the federal government is cert- ainly remiss in its duties to small communities in cases such as this." Although the project directors have attempted to gain federal funds throughout the summer, none have been made available. So far funds from service org- anizations, colleges, universit- ies and private citizens have kept the centre in operation since its opening July 1. Due to a village policy now in effect regarding the placing of signs on streets, a request from Southcott Pines Parklands Lim- ited to erect two signs was re- jected. The subdivision owners will be told they may erect the signs on the village's designated area north of the main intersection or on private property. Councillor Murray Des Jardins who is in charge of parks and the beach was criticized for "extremely high costs" of operat- ing the bath house. Des Jardins was asked by coun- cil to attempt to hire additional personnel rather than pay a lot of overtime wages. Des Jardins said he would at- tempt to have the situation cor- rected and added, "The bath house was never designed to be a money maker." In addition, he added, "As far as the lifeguard program is concerned I haven't changed my mind one iota that it should be discontinued in the future." Councillor David Jackson told council that employees of the SWEEP program are doing an excellent job on cleaning up the river bank and river bed within the village limits and he expect- ed they would continue until August 25. Council learned that the Grand Bend library would be moved to the public school by the end of August. 0 Cole to the Bean Festival Satir'd r=q INT .DUCT%% Reorganization of the Doug Riddell Phone 237-3576 DashwoodHensal Jack Riddell Phone 237-3431 Dashwood St ces Sales Every Thursday at 2:00 p.m. Vic Hargreaves Phone 482-7511 Clinton nw All Classes Of Livestock O Competence 0 Confidence Competition Wedding CAMPBELL SWEITZER Crediton United Church, dec- orated with candles and floral baskets, was the scene of a pretty wedding when Sandra Sweitzer, only daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Milton Sweitzer of Ship- ka and James William Campbell eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Har- old Campbell, of R, R,1, Exeter, were united in marriage by Rev.
