Five new plays by On
tario playwrights will be
presented by the Blyth
Summer Festival in its 1979
season.
Artistic Director, James
Roy announced that Blyth’s
fifth season will include This
Foreign Land by Patricia
The Town of Exeter has
received a grant of $23,000
under the provisions of the
federal government’s
Municipal Incentive Grant
(MIG) program.
The program is ad
ministered by Andre Ouellet,
minister
Central
Housing
the federal
responsible for
Mortgage and
Corporation.
The grants
represent $1,000 for 23 of the
units in the apartment now
under completion by
developer Len Veri on
Carling St.
These are the
grants received
and they are intended to
encourage both
construction
economic use
municipalities.
The new
building actually contains 30
units, but seven of them were
of a size that disqualified
them from grant approval
according to clerk Liz Bell.
Mrs. Bell said the town
spent about $7,000 providing
storm and sanitary sewer
outlets for the Veri property
and explained that the
balance of the grant could be
used for any pumose. It will
show up as a revenue figure
in this year’s budget.
A similar application for
grants for the Ducharme
townhouse development on
Edward St. was not suc
cessful, although the $16,000
anticipated from the grants
was included in last year’s
budget.
It was indicated that the
townhouses sold for a figure
higher than what was per
missible under the MIG
program.
The town has already
made application for a grant
for the new 24-unit apart
ment planned by Veri on his
Carling St, property.
At last weeks session
of council^ a neighboring
property owner suggested
some of the “windfall”
received by the town in the
$23,000 grant should be used
to make the new facility
compatible with the existing
residences in the area.
Bill Batten said in a letter
to council they should con
sider spending some of the
grant on the planting of a
buffer zone so neighboring
owners will enjoy some
privacy within their own
backyards. He said a fence
should also be a considera
tion if this is not already
planned by the developer.
Noting that the population
in the small area has
already doubled through the
construction of the apart
ment and will increase
further with another
building in the same area,
Batten said the town should
be prepared to spend some
of the funds to allow
neighbours to enjoy the
small-town advantages of
low-density living that they
have a right to expect, and
which is now jeopardized.
Reeve Si Simmons
suggested buffer zones
should be the responsibility
of the developer and not the
town, noting he provided the
buffer zone for this apart
ment complex.
He did agree that some
steps should be taken to
provide privacy for
neighboring properties,
noting he wouldn’t want to
be out barbecuing with a
number of people looking on
from a nearby apartment
building.
“It makes sense”, Coun
cillor Don Cameron added,
noting that a visual buffer
should be considered.
The matter was dealt with
by council asking the clerk
to write developer Len Veri
to get some idea of what
landscaping he may have in
mind for the apartment
property.

missioned by the Festival.
A fifth play, The Death of
the Donnellys by Theatre
Passe Muraille with Ted
Johns will be co-produced by

Muraille and presented dur
ing the final two weeks of
the season.
This Foreign Land is a
compelling and entertaining
collection of songs and
stories celebrating the
courage and vitality of the
new, new Canadians who in
recent years have traded the
security of their homeland
for a new culture and a new
language. You will find out
why they called themselves
“The Paper Canadians”.
Peter Colley’s new com
edy thriller, I’ll Be Back For
You Before Midnight pokes
good-natured fun at the
naive'te of many “back to
the landers” who seek the
imagined tranquility of
rural living, but find instead
that their idyllic farm house
is inhabited by evil things
that go bump in the night.
McGillicuddy’s Lost
Weekend by Keith Roulston
aims sharp-edged wit at the
absurdities of human nature
through the misadventures
of a town Police Chief seek
ing to escape from the
pressures of his duties as
lyth
sole guardian of the law in
Hamhocks, Ontario.
Child by James W. Nichol
is an emotional and appeal
ing drama that focuses on
the efforts of a young hus
band and wife to restore the
meaning of their lives
together after it has been
shattered by the dis
appearance of their only
son.
In a special addition to the
season, Ted Johns and
Theatre Passe Muraille
have joined forces to bring
to life again their hit play,
The Death of the Donnellys.
Were the Donellys
highspirited, fun-loving boys
made scapegoats for every
misadventure in Biddulph
Township - or were they
violent monsters wiped out
by good men driven to
desperate means?
