County turns down
resource fund bid
ByJEFFSEDDON
Huron County Council
refused to support the
Vanastra Resource Centre at
its Friday session when it
received a request from the
centre for a $5,000 grant.
The executive committee
of council recommended that
the grant request be refused
at the present time leaving
the resource centre to
operate on a Canada Works
grant of $26,000.
Executive committee
chairman Ed Oddleifson told
council that Liz Warren,
Chris Martin and Carol
Mcllveen had appeared
before the committee
requesting financial support.
The money was to be used to
publish 500 copies of a
proposed services in
formation directory costing
$2,500, and to pay a part-time
worker to continue to
provide services provided by
the resource centre under
the original Canada Works
grant.
Oddleifson said the
Vanastra group was working
with funds from a 1978
Canada Works grant and
that four people were
drawing pay out of that
grant. He said the centre had
received $26,000 for 1979 and
that money was to pay three
staff members.

THE DAY THE MAGIC DIED
CUT RECORD — Things may not always be harmonious in a household where there are five
girls, but that's not the case at the Dashwood area home of Joseph and Anne Miller. Their five
daughters have been making harmonious sounds for several years and the popular young
entertainers recently cut a record "The Miller Sisters" which is now available at area outlets.
The JO songs on the record were written and composed by the eldest of the girls, 16-year-old
Donna Jean. Exeter drummer Jeff Rooth accompanied the girls.
