Home My WebLink AboutThe Blyth Standard, 1979-01-10, Page 1WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10, 1979, BLYTH, ONTARIO, PRICE: 20 Cents Volume 89 No. 2 Rabies in Huron confirmed Reports have been confirmed that cattle in the north of Huron County have been placed under quarantine for rabies. Dr. W.J. Thompson, of the Health of Animals Branch, the department of agri- culture office in Seaforth, said one farmer in the north of the county has lost five dairy cattle to the disease. Dr. thompson said in December, the farmer discovered a skunk in the pasture field with the cattle one day at noon. By the time the farmer had returned to his house to get a gun, the skunk had disappeared. The next day, the dead skunk was discovered on the farm and tests confirmed the animal was rabid. There is a 12 day incubation period following contact with a rabid animal, Two KINGS OF THE CASTLE — At the top,of a snowbank, taking a break from their sliding are, from left, Tim and Matthew King, Kent Vodden and Darryl Elliott, all of Blyth. After facing the first bad storm of the winter last Wednesday, Blyth and area had more snow squalls Tuesday and there was no indication that snow for area youngsters to play in would be in short supply. Les (Standard Photo) days after this period had elapsed, the farmer lost four dairy cattle and a fifth cow died a week later. Dr W.J. Thompson said two other farmers in the north of the county have lost a total of three cattle, who also died from rabies. The doctor reported a cat in Fordwich also proved to be rabid. However, Dr. Thompson said there is "northing unusual" about the rabies out- break. He said the disease has been found in the county since 1957 and "we've never really gotten rid of it since then." He said the disease sometimes almost disappears, and then breaks out again. Dr. Thompson said skunks and foxes are the main spreaders of the disease. The veterinarian said one warning sign ifor farmers might be if they see a fox close to their farm buildings in the daytime, since foxes won't normally come anywhere near either people or dogs. Listowel veterinarian, Dr, Thomas Sanderson, said in this part of the province, "we have to resign ourselves. .to the constant existenced of a low-grade level of rabies." Residents in the north of Huron County have requested a series of free vaccination clinics for cats and dogs. The clinics will be held in Gorrie, Jan. 10, at 3 p.m to 7 p.m.; Wingham, Jan. 12, 2 to 8 p.m.; Dungannon, Jan. 15, 3 to 7 p.m, and Blyth, Jan. 17, 2 to 8 p.m. Dr, Thompson said vaccinations for pets act as a barrier for rabies "between wild animals and humans." One of 66 Queens Villa gets 51904 federal Horizons grant The Queens Villa Club in Blyth is to get a New Horizons grant of $ 1,904. The grant was one of 68 the federal government awarded to groups of retired people in Ontario. The total value of grants �� ivcn was 5434.6.17. Thu Queen's Villa Club was formed around the end of July last year shortly after the senior citizens apartment building /opened. Mrs. Molly Grant, president of the Bluth club said there has to be a club with a Board of Directors in order to get New Horizons grant. The Board of Directors of The Blyth club includes Molly Grant, President; Mrs. Annie McNichol, Secretary; Mrs. Ruby Philp, Treasurer; Mrs. Charlotte McLellan, Mrs. Merle Henry, Mrs. Pearl Crawford, Mrs. Ella Fairscrvicc, Aaron Wicben, Mrs. Roxy Caves and John Young. Mrs. Grant said the club had applied for the grant shortly after moving in. Among the things the club will be using the grant for will be dishes for the kitchen, an exercise bicycle, a hi -ti, crafts, film showings and several indoor games. Canadiens comes to Blyth BY ALICE GiBB Hockey Night in Canada is introducing a little "culture" in one of its upcoming pro- grams and sports fans around Ontario just may be turning up in theatres this winter. The reason is Les Canadiens, a Th catre Passe Muraille touring production which producer Paul Thomp- son said is "forpeople who normally don't like plays." The play, which isn't like a play, is going to be per- formed at the Blyth Memorial Hall on January 17 and excerpts from the same play are going to be shown on an upcoming Hockey Night In Canada broadcast. Les Canadiens, which originated at the Centaur Theatre in Montreal, was written by playwright Rick Salutin of "1837" fame, with technical assistance from Montreal goalie Ken Dryden,. The action of the play traces the rise of Quebec and the rise of the Montreal Canadienss hockey team and offers some interesting in- sights on both, Theatre Passe Muraille are the same company who brought The Farm Show to the arca, as well as Shakespeare For Fun and Profit. Right now the com- pany has another hit on their hands called Les Maudits Anglaiscs which has drawn excellent reviews and audiences in both Toronto and Montreal. MILES POTTER Les Canadiens comes to Blyth with director • Miles Potter, (frons The Farm Show), an artificial skating rink and a cast of six men and one woman.Thewoman, who represents everyone from the mother of Quebec to a French teacher, undoubtedly has the safest role in the play. The six nien are the hockey players and they careen around the stage on skates - roller skates, but still dangerous! As Paul Thomp- son said, one of the trickiest parts of the roles in Les Canadiens was learning how to brake on the skates. The play starts off in the days when Mitchell's own Howie Morenz first left a Stratford hockey team to play in Montreal and Paul Thompson hopes this will make the play of particular interest to local audiences. On a visit to Seaforth last week, Mr. 'Thompson said Les Canadiens follows sonic of the outstanding Montreal players through their careers and shows "local hometown boys trying to deal with the world,'' Mr. Thompson said the secret of Les Canadiens is that ''traditional good Canadian hockey and history are Wed together." Les Canadiens, Mr. Thompson said, "is the play to bring your husband to," particularly if that husband is a dedicated hockey fan. FiGHTS In case anyone thinks the play will be a little dull after the real thing, Mr. Thompson said not only do "all your heroes come to life" but the play also features some of the fights which have made Canadian hockey famous, or infamous, depending on your view. But in spite of the fights, Mr. Thompson said, "We haven't heard from Rov McMurtry yet," Although the play original- ly premiered at Montreal's Centaur Theatre, and was produced by Toronto Work- shop Productions more re- cently, Theatre Passe Muraille has picked up touring responsibilities for play, which includes hauling a 300 pound score sign and rink around Ontario. Mr. Thompson's eventual ambition for the play is to translate it into French, and take it back to Quebec, this time aiming it at the French Canadian audience. Mr. Thompson, the founder of Theatre Passe Muraille, grew up in Listowel, the heart of Toronto Maple Leaf country, and said despite this, he was always a Montreal fan. Ted Johns, another Theatre Passe Muraille alumnus, and the writer- actor who starred in The School Show at Blyth this summer, also has a personal interest in Les Canadiens, When Mr. Johns was teaching high school in Mitchell, he lived in the house where Howie Morenz had grown up, One day Montreal Can adiens star "Boom Boom" Geoffrion ap- peared at the door and asked it' he and his wife, the daughter of Mr. Morenz, could tour the house. BISHOP Although Mr. Thompson :me to Seaforth largely to publicize Les Canadiens and Billy Bishop Goes To War, the hyo -man play coming to Blyth later this winter, he also had some observations to offer on the theatre scene in general. Mr. Thompson said the recent government cutbacks to theatre companies are going to hurt smaller In Mullett companies, like the Blyth Festival, the most, since finances won't allow the companies to grow. Also, the lack of funds "stops new Blyths". Mr. Tompson said his own company will have to do fewer shows in the coming years and have already had to postpone a planned pre- sentation of The Ectasy fo Rita Joe. The director said sadly the theatre is one part of Canadian Life that is "really ours", an "interesting and potentially exciting method of self-expression which we are controlling," (Continued on Page 7) Salaries set Hullett Township Counicl has reviewed and set salaries for township employees for 1979. Clerk Clare Vincent's salary will remain the sante at $18,000. Road superintendent's wage was raised to $6.60 up 50 cents and road employees' wages were raised to $6.25 per hour, up 40 cents.

Hydro to test voltage As part of a scheduled series of tests, Ontario Hydro will reduce system voltage by 5 per cent on January 16, 1979. The test will cover two one•hour periods •• 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. •- and is not expected to noticeably affect residential, commercial or industrial customers. "Very few customers will even be aware that anything is happening," says Roger Whitehead, system operations manager. It is estimated that a 5 per cent voltage reduction will reduce system demand by about 400,000 kilowatts enough to supply the needs of a city the size of London, Ontario. The test is standard pro- cedure carried out twice a year to determine how much the system load can be reduced during a generation shortage. The tests also help locate operating and customer voltage supply pro- blems and ensure that Hydro operations staff remain familiar with voltage re- duction procedures. The last test took place July 18, 1978. If system problems occur January 16, the testing wil be delayed two days, to ,lanuary 18, 1979. EARN 25% INTEREST on a secured loan of $1,000.00 or more.

After treating myself to extra helpings of dressing, sweet salads and plenty of mince- meat pie and pecan tarts, cheese cake and numerous cookies I have had to face a fact. My tummy ain't what it used to be. The next few months we all tend to stay indoors more and activities slowly come to a halt.

Food has always been my downfall, Anthing in- teresting or spicy is reason enough for me to try it. The thought of food brings to- mind the plight of the Vietnamese people who have chosen to live in our country. The food they are eating is Canadian. Roast Chicken, sliced pork and boiled vege- tables. It all sounds very tasty but many of the re- fugees are having a hard time changing their eating habits. Although they eat those same products they have a very different way of pre- paring their foods. The Canadian dishes, weigh heavily and the Viet- namese feel sluggish after eating. You can imagine if you were accustomed to eating lightly on foods that are cooked quickly and with a minimum of oil, to them Canadian food is greasy. Maybe we could in- corporate the best of the two for ourselves. In our rough climate we need the extra energy our Canadian dishes afford us. But maybe we could cut down on the fatty foods and concentrate more on fresh or quickly cooked vegetables, use less meat and avoid too many starchy items, At home when we try to cut down our intake 1 find someone always gets the munchies and out comes snack foods, We have re - Communion service held Welcoming worshippers to Blyth Unitcd Church's Com- munion Service on Sunday morning were Albert Wasson and Bob Peck. Ushers were Betty Nethery, Steve How- son and Bill Aiken. "Behold, A Stranger Standing" was the name of the anthem by the choir. Scripture reading was a familiar parable from Mark 12: 1-11. Mr. Wittich's story for the Jr. Congregation was in the form of a parable - about a frog in a comfortable rut, but not until forced by a truck did he make the effort to get out. How true of life! To explain his sermon "The Act of Love", based on 1 cot. 1:18, Mr. Wittich used another parable, comparing God's Family of Christians to any family where children rebel and want to prove they can fend for themselves. Parents use all manner of means to bring their children back, and not until the children realize that the parents have done all these Obituary HARRY McGUIRE Harry L. McGuire, 85, of Belgrave, died in Wingham District Hospital on December 24, after a lengthy illness. Mr. McGuire was the son of the late Mary Ann Sowler and William John McGuire of Sullivan Township, Grey County.j Mr. McGuire is survived by his wife, the former Carrie May Stonehouse of Belgrave, and four daughters, Mrs. Sam (Thelma) Pletch of Bel - grave; Mrs. Norman (Lois) Hill of Willowdale; Mrs. Harold (Ruth) Cantelon of Tweed and Mrs. Alan (Audrey) MacKay of Wing - ham, He is also survived by two sisters, Mrs, Cecil (Violet) Walpole of Point Clarke and Mrs. Cecil (Ella) Mines of Lockport, New York. Mr. McGuire was predeceased by four brothers and two sisters._ Mr. McGuire is also sur- vived by 20 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren. Mr, McGuire, who attend- ed Grey County School, farmed for many years, operating a threshing and hay presisng business. In later lite he ran a saw sharpening business until he reitred in 1973. Mr. Mcguire marric dhis wife in Auburn in 1921. He was an active member of Knox United Church, Bclgravc and a member of the Order of Foresters. He came to the World War 1. The pallbearers were .Kevin Pletch and Keith Pletch of Belgrave, Robert Hill of Toronto, Greg Cantelon of Toronto, Brian MacKay of Cambridge and Gary McKay of Wingham.

Remember to watch "sing - time" on Sat, at 6:30, stricted ourselves to apples, fresh nuts (always left out for cracking) and any leftover salads in the fridge. On a really cosy night a bowl of popcorn is excellent. Mind you have to keep the amount of the butter you drizzle over it to a minimum or the whole idea of weight loss is ruined.. For popcorn with flavour put some seasoning into the- oil when you cook it. We like curry mixed with cayenne and numerous other spices to make for a spicy flavour so that you don't notice the absence of a lot of butter, But the crunch in cutting back is to maintain that ideal. Too often I come across a rich new dessert or main dish and we will eat it for several meals. Bloated we stretch out in front of the tube and let all those calories settle down to a fatty state. Evenings when the tube is off, small jobs get done and you don't feel bloated. The skinny society dictates a lot of subtle rules to us. If being fat were really a happy experience I for one would gain the pounds and suffer the consequences. But such is not the case. I mean, who would be small enough to get up into the crawl spaces at home to insulate and check for leaks? Winter is the fat time of the year for me. Maybe with the extra snow covering we can get out and do some skiing and avoid the "heavy blues" this year.

Now citizens may walk with somewhat more ease on the east side of the street. A path is being kept clear so that they will not have to chance walking along the highway or atop high snow banks. Getting around at the best of times is difficult for some people and having snow banks to navigate around makes life miserable. Now the way is clear and everyone who uses the walk should compliment the village on remedying the situation before something hazardous occurred, More children 7 Can you imagine anyone having children when they cannot even afford to support themselves? According to Lorne Henderson, Conservative MPP for Lambton, the low fertility rate in Canada will have a devastating effect in 30 years. The average two children per family won't provide enough future citizens to support the economy in future years, Mr. Henderson says, A large part of the population will consist of retired people. The children of today will be supporting those born In the post-war baby boom, who will be reaching retirement age about the year 2010. Unless the birth rate is increased, there could be five million people in the work force supporting 15 million who are retired and 5 million who are not old enough to work, says Mr Henderson. It is fortunate that Mr. Henderson reali; es the financial problems involved with raising a family in these days of inflation. He encourages the government to provide some sort of financial security to encourage greater fertility. We can understand Mr. Henderson's concern. There must be some sort of balance maintained in order for the country as a whole to survive. But in this day and age what government would encourage population growth with more and more unemployed raising their voices. for security. At the present time the future doesn't look promising for young couples. Real estate is high, food prices are ever rising and with our mobile way of life there always seem to be more items needing financial attention than many are prepared to admit. Once Canada's economy is more stable there may be another baby boom. Contentment and security is the key to family structure, Instead of encouraging population increases maybe Mr. Henderson should concentrate straightening out other problems like unemploy- ment plaguing young and old alike and leave population growth to take care of itself. Wind breaks planned It is refreshing to get some feedback on material printed in the Blyth Standard. Last week we commented concerning the cutting down of windbreaks along highway number 4 both north and south of Blyth. From all observations it appeared that the government agency responsible for the planning had misjudged and the road was in just as rough a shape, snow wise as before the trees were cut. But fear not. The planners in their ivory towers have not neglected us. The Ministry of Transportation and Communications in Stratford has explained that the shoulder has been too soft for the plows to throw snow back very far and trees had to be cut. In the spring weather the province plans a tree planting program. The new trees are to be planted in the new 55 foot road allowance. The old road allowance of 33 feet did not leave enough room for both trees and snow. Given another year the roads will be properly protected and in a few more years the beauty of the trees will be established again along highway 4. Memorial Hall Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston Down in Toronto these days they're busy making a movie. It's based on the murder mystery Sin Sniper, written by one of Canada's best known authors, Hugh Garner and set in Toronto's Cabbagetown area, Except it's not called Sin Sniper, but Stone Cold Dead. And it won't look like it's in Toronto• but instead in some faceless American city. The locations are being chosen to look like those one might see in an American city and all mention of Canada is being downplayed even though the movie is being made in Canada by. Canadians from a Canadian book by a Canadian author about a Canadian city. Down in Montreal they're making a movie in the streets of the city but are covering over all the street names that sound like they're in Montreal in favour of names that might show up in any typical American city. And so it goes. A while back Pierre Berton wrote a book called Hollywood's Canada dealing with the hilarious ways the American movie industry used toportray Canada. it seems there's an even greater opportunity for a book today called Canada's Hollywood about the ridicu- lous way Canadians are treating themselves in movies. In the right hands, such a book ought to be hilarious. There are more movies being made in Canada today than ever before. There are fewer movies being made about Canada today than just about any time in the last decade, It used to be that Canadians film makers made self-conscious little films on shoestring budgets that nobody ever got to see, sometimes because the movie theatres were controlled by the big U.S. distribution companies which wanted to push their own products, good or bad; and sometimes because the Canadian movies were just gosh awful bad. But now and then there was a diamond in the rough, a charming little movie that would make people say; gee, if only that writer had a little more money and better talent so he could do a really good job. Well the Canadian government decided to do its part by bringing in tax incentives to get people to invest their money in movies made in Canada. For short while we had moderately budgeted films like Why Shoot the Teacher and Who Has Seen the Wind and Lies My Father Told Me, which were both enjoyable and Canadian. But then people began to think they had to break the U.S, market to get the really big m!•.niey and they were afraid Americans ‘rouid only go to sec movies that looked like they were American. Thus, while they stayed in Canada to take advantage of the tax break, Canadians and foreigners began to make movies here that looked like they took place in American cities and had American stars. Now there are very few "Canadian” Canadian movies being made at all and when they do get made they're likely to star foreigners. The most ridiculous stage was reached when Two Solitudes, a movie that couldn't be more Canadian, based as it was on a book dealing with the English -French rift in Canada starred an American as the English Canadian and a Frenchman as the French Canadian. The movies, of course, though being the most realistic of art forms have always dwelt in fantasy, making something look like something else, They make a movie about the Sahara in a Nevada Desert and a movie about Nevada in the Sahara. in the movie Superman they shot portions in Alberta which were supposed to take place in Kansas. I don't really object to that (as long as our tax money isn't involved). What 1 object to is the present paranoia that makes film makers sell their national birthright in the hope they'll get the pot of gold in the U.S. market. I realise that we can't make every movie so platantly Canadian that people in other parts of the world won't be interested but if you've got a good story i don't think a few Canadian touches will drive people away from the picture in other countries, We don't stay home from Ameri- can or British pictures here, i find it ironic that at a time when Canadians still feel they've got to bring in some American "stars" to win box office for films made here, Americans picked a Canadian actress Margo Kidder for the female lead in the most expensive picture ever made, Superman. A Canadian ballerina was chosen for the lead in another American picture, Slow Dancing in the Big City, And another Canadian actress Genieve Bujold is one of the busiest actresses in Hollywood. Yet we continue to bring in Americans who (Continued on Page 12; • Plan programs for Year of Child The Ontario Govern- ment's programs in observ- ance of the International Year of the Child arc now under way and dozens of municipalities, associations and organizations across the Province have indicated that they will join in the cele- bration, IYC was proclaimed by the United Nations as a means of focussing attention on the well-being of children. The Ontario Government has allocated no extra funds for the observance yet all Ministries and Secretariats are participating by building special projects into existing programs within regularly allocated budgets. "The re- sponse has been over- whelming," the Honourable Margaret Birch, Provincial Secretary for Social Develop- ment noted recently. "With no special grants programs, organizations have responded equally as well," she added. "Wontens Institutes have been partic- ularly industrious in making local arrangements for child- ren's events, Municipal- ities have responded too. The Town of Milton, for instance, plans to work with the local Optimist Club in holding Youth Appreciation Weeks.

In ' Elliot Lake, an ambitious program by the Town Corporation includes plans for construction of special children's recreation areas in local parks or school areas, a series of social events planned especially around children and a re- quest to the Elliot Lake Arts Club to include a children's section in its annual art and handicraft show, "The real spirit for the Year of the Child has to start in the family and in the community," Mrs. Birch added, "That is why the spontaneous and enthusi- astic support from commun- ities is so encouraging." Following are some suggestions from the Ontario Government on how IYC can be observed by individuals or groups. *Become a Block Parent or set up a Block Parent Associ- ation if there is not one already in your neighbour- hood, *Invite a guest speaker to your club/organization/ Home and School Associ- ation to talk about positive parenting, education, day care, handicapped children, children with special needs or any arca pertaining to children that would be of benefit to your members. •Contact your local Child- dren's Aid, ''Y", Big Brother/Little Sister Associ- ation or other voluntary organization regarding volunteer work, •Contact your local Child- ren's Aid with regard to becoming a foster parent. *Make a personal commit- ment to your own children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces to set aside extra time in 1979 for an educational or recreational experience, e.g. trip to zoo, museum, conser- vation arca or art gallery; camping or sporting events. •Construct a special child - USED SNOWMOBILES ome in and see the Ne:V SCORMOA 1978 Scorpion Stinger 440, 58 h.p. 1978 Range Whip 400 1974 Stinger 290 1974 JDX John Deere 400 3 _1973 Stinger 340 1972 Stinger 111 Wide Track 400 1972 Lightening Mercury 400 1972 Snow Hawk Twin 1970 Massey Ferguson H.P. single RAY POTER Et SONS LTD. 275 Huron St., Clinton 482-9997' ren's recreation area in a local park or school yard. * Develop a children's theatre group. *Hold an art, music or drama festival for and by children. * Set up a system of volun- teers to help teachers in the classrooms or on field trips. *Plan sports or games events.' *Develop a family project which involves your child- ren's creative talents, e.g. build a playhouse, set up a greenhouse, make your own greeting, cards, start an aquarium, learn to sail, camp explore nature, start a vegetable or flower garden, •Offer to babysit for a single parent family. *Is there a latch -key child on your block?

Four Lions Club members were present from Goderich . Freedom of Choice group formed in Huron County A new group, called Society for the Freedom of Choice, has been formed in Huron County to promote intellectual freedom and de- fend novels, studied in Huron County secondary schools, which have been under fire. A meeting to set up the group organized by Goderich town councillor Elsa Haydon, was informal with Mrs. Hay - don inviting a number of people who have been vocal on issues concerning individual freedom in the past. One issue at the top of the suggested goals of the group was lobbying for the Huron County Board of Education to lift its classroom banning of The Diviners, by Canadian author Margaret Laurence, Earlier this year, the board took the novel off the ap- proved list of material for high school English classes after pressure from the county chapter of the Renais• since International group, The 19 people who at- tended the first meeting fo the Society for the Freedom of Choice decided to delay planning any definite action ; for the organization until a second meeting can be held on January 17. Mrs, Haydon said she decided to hold the first meeting to defend the books the Renaissance group wanted banned. She said she didn't intend to "convert anyone's thinking" nor did she intend to form a bona fide group. "1 feel it is very important to show people outside the county that while there are people in Huron.County who want the book banned, there are also people to fight against it," she told the group. SDHS principal Bruce Shaw said he felt "some kind of voice" had to be created in the county to balance the "negative force".of the book banners. He said it stems everywhere he goes, people SPS principal Paul Carroll told the group he was interested in other issues than just the recent book banning. He mentioned as examples the recent ministry of education treatment of the film Jesus Trial and a letter he received from Ontario Hydro telling him he couldn't have certain information be- cause if it was given to him, 60" Stretch Gabardine - 4.99 yd. 60" Polyester Corduroy - 4.99 yd.. 60" Zelcon Knit - 4.99 yd. 60" Worsted Gabardine - 5.49 yd. 45" Texmade Flannelette - 1.39 yd.

Auburn Huron Chapel enjoys large attendance BY WAYNE GOOD PASTOR, HURON CHAPEL The last service of 1978 at the Chapel saw a good number of families in at- tendance in the candle - lit sanctuary. The Chapel had been decorated for the festive season by Mrs. Doug Campbell and Mrs. Frank Raithby. Pastor Wayne' Good gave 'i interesting slide pre- sentation a World Mis- sion Special. Beginning in Iraq with the traditional site of the Garden of Eden, then • to the Biblical sites of Ur of the Chaldee, Babylon, Egypt and Israel we were shown the progress of the development of Israel as a nation and through her the Saviour born. The further spread of the gospel by Paul took us tc Damascus the place of conversion,then on tc Athens, Corinth and Rome. The progress of modern missions included scenes from Mexico Colombia and Ecuador South America. A fellowship hour followed the service and refreshments were served by Mrs. Frank Raithby, Mrs. Dave Baan and Mrs. Wayne Good. At the first services of 1979 interest continued in the Family Bible Hour Sunday morning at the Chapel. The Adults are ex- perienceing the thrill of Bible Study in the Book of Heb- rews, taught by the pastor; with the aid of an overhead projector. As a prelude to the evening service the Chape- lites played several musical numbers. Two songs were sung by Dave and Diane Bann. Pastor Good's Message showed members to forget the sinful past, for which they have been forgiven, and press on to the prize of the h high calling of God in Christ Jesus, just as Paul showed his experience with the Philippian believers.

Mr. and Mrs. Don Campbell and Lisa of Les Canadiens (Continued from Page 1) Mr. 'Thompson also said he was sorry to see many Toronto theatre companies are now doing more traditional plays. He said Toronto is still "sicked into the New York model too much" and theatres aren't willing to take the leadership in bringing new works to the stage. SMALL CENTRES Although most Theatre Passe Muraille plays do eventually end up on the Toronto stage, the company has traditionally written the plays in smaller communities around the country, in- cluding Petrolia and Clinton. Mr. 'I'honipson said he still likes bringing his work to smaller centres, "since it's an audience I still know I'm connecting with." In the meantime, Paul Thompson has also issued area hockey fans a second challenge. Not only will his company perform Les Canadiens on stage, but the cast has also offered to take on any team who will challenge them to a game - on roller skates of course! Now, are there any Leaf fans out there who want to show those actors how the game of hockey is really played?

The secretary report was given by Mrs. McBurney she also gave the yearly report. Care is needed safety tips are really of the common sense variety that apply equally to all kinds of vehicles. There is a responsibility not just to oneself, but also to passengers, pedestrians, cross-country skiers and animals. Here's the Council's basic snowmobile advice: - - Know the rules and regulations of snowmobiling in the area involved. - Ensure that every potential rider • especially beginners or youngsters • is familiar with the vehicle's operation. • If a young person is to be in control, first, is it legal for him/her to do so? Then, docs the young person understand control of the machine and behave well in positions .of responsibility. • Start and stop smoothly. Keep a moderate speed and slow down over rough sur- faces. - Warn passengers of dangers ahead - c.g. low branches, Avoid broken ter- rain, and if passenger is young, check riding posture frequently. - Passengers: Hold handles, keep feet on run- ning boards, and obey driver's instructions. •A note for all: do not ride a snowmobile after drinking.

Well Geon; 0, I think you're wrong, I think that, give good, enjoyable films, Canadians would choose those that shoe' them something at least about the scenery of their own country rather than one that looks like it's made in some drab, faceless, nowhere land. I make that judgement after watching people flock to . theatre for several years because they can identify with the Canadian characters and situations portrayed on stage, something they could never do before, People are starved for the sight of something of themselves on stage, on television, at the movies. They just want entertaining, quality production along with their Canadian identity. What's happening because of people like Mr. Mendeli k is a tragedy. After all these years we finally have many films being made in Canada but for all the good it's doing us, they might as well be made in Hollywood. At least there they might try to juice things up by making Pasadena look like Vancouver.
