It is ex- pected to be a sell out he said. Fisher reminded council that 8250 had been allotted by council to present souvehirs to the visiting players. Isidore Laporte told coun- cil there would be trees cut by county workers along Goshen Street near the Lutheran Church. He said the trees look good in the summer, but because central branches were cut out to clear the hydro lines, water pools at the top of the trees and rots out the centre. Reporting for the streets and sidewalk committee, Laporte added the county plans to cut every second tree and plant new ones in the spaces. Fisher suggested to satisfy residents, that the village • contribute to plant larger trees than the county would put in.

Thiel said the authority recognizes the state of the economy and does not plan to build right away. They will investigate zoning and do preliminary work on the project. It was suggested the Zurich arena be offered to be the site of an authority an- nual meeting. Baker said this was .the type of event which would be good for the arena. Thiel had noted the authority hoped to move the meetings to various locations within the watersh- ed.

The position will be adver- tised. Council decided to set due dates for tax installments on March 1. June 1, September 1 and November 30. Baker said the village would probably not have to borrow money for the.rest of the year, but would likely have to do so to meet January accounts. She said outstanding taxes were about $14,800 this year, up from 88,000 at this time last year. Baker said some people had said they would pay the taxes on December 31 before the interest rates on tax arrears increases in January. winners named delicious dishes and desserts, Santa Claus paid a visit and handed out candy canes to all the kids.
