The Monday Night Cinema in Wingham has started its fall and win- ter season with the first film Momento showing on Oct. 15. Shelley Paulocik, one of the festival organizers said, "We try to bring in a real cross-section of films. When we_ went to the Toronto International film Festival we saw several films that we might get for our series." In November they will be showing Le Placard (The Closet), a French film with English sub-titles. The film has been shown at several festivals and has received excellent reviews. An amusing take on political cor- rectness, it concerns a man who uses the politically correct attitudes of the time to save himself from layoffs by pretending to be gay. Unfortunately he forgets that he must keep up the pretense to maintain his job and at the same time deal with the head of the Human relations department who is rabidly homophobic. Paulocik said, "It never goes too far in any direction but gently shows the foibles of political correctness." The December film is Here's To Life, a Canadian offering, staring James Widemor, Kim Hunter and Aussie Davis. In order to have one last fling three residents of a retirement home black- mail the home's director into taking them on a joy-ride. The film recounts both their experiences and the direc- tor's during their travels. The January offering was original- ly intended to be Kandahar, which looks at life in Afganistan under the Taliban. Paulocik said, "I thought it was a worthwhile film in light of recent events. It might provide some insight into Afghanistan under the Taliban." When this v as not available Lumumba, directed by Raoul Peck, was chosen. This political thriller looks at the rise and fall of Patrice Lumumba, the nationalist Prime Minister of the newly independent Congo in 1961. This accurate, although fictional- ized account of his life, details the plots and intrigues leading up to his murder at the behest of Belgian colo- nial interests and the CIA. The one group intent on protecting their busi- ness interests and the other, American influence in the area. Films are usually shown on the third Monday of the month and are screened at the Lyceum Theatre in Wingham. Tickets are seven dollars each and anyone wanting further information should contact Shelley Paulocik at 519-335-3749.

Clerk-Administrator John Stewart explained that sewage can no longer be spread on frozen land, so the for- mer town of Wingham worked out an agreement last year with a contractor for disposal at the sewage treatment plants. It had a negligible effect on capac- ity, which in a report from 1999 indi- cated 244 households of uncommit- ted space. A fee of two cents a gallon was charged. Stewart said they had not commit- ted to a long-term contract, but he would advise Janes & Associates of the agreement. *** Because of contributions made through employment, etc. council opted not to take up a challenge from Goderich Mayor Deb Shewfelt to raise pledges for the Huron United Way. "This is something that's already going on," said Councillor Jeff Howson. "A lot of local busi- nesses make contributions within their own structure." *** East Wawanosh received $2,979.63 from the JEPP program. The amount, said Councillor James Campbell, was for a generator; *** In his report for the Blyth fire board, Howson said that a letter is once again being sent to the county and lower-tier municipalities asking that board be re-imbursed for first response calls items used by the department. Four municipalities had not replied to the first request.
