Personals
Several town and area
ladies attended the second
lecture on nutrition Monday
evening at the For Goodness
Sake, store with speaker
Eileen Gottschall of Kirkton.
Mrs. Gottschall is a Ph. D.
candidate in nutrition. This
lecture was, on Digestion,
Fibre and Instestinal 'bac-
teria. The ladies were told
that step by step the
digestive tract reduces large
food particles into smaller.
ones, which are then
presented to the
"gatekeeper," cells, the
absorptive cells of the in-
testine. Only then can they
enter the blood stream and
nurish the body. The ab-
sorpthe intestine is 23 feet
long, suggesting that ab-
sorption should take time.
Continuing, she said that
fibre, the natural ar-
chitecture of plants,
prevents an onslaught of
nutrients into the blood
stream, thereby slowing
down • absorption of
chemicals, but increasing
the mechanical movement of
food so that it does not
stagnate.
Intestinal bacteria can
contribute to health or
disease. Learn how the foods
we eat affect the kinds' of
bacteria in the intestinal
tract.

Museums :finish
1982 budgets
The proposed budgets for
1982 for the Lambton
Heritage and Oil Museums
will be examined by Lamb -
ton County committee
chairmen at a meeting
February 10, and one of the
items awaiting their in-
spection is a new uniform
admission fee structure for
'both buildings.
The museum committee
reviewed and accepted both
budgets at a special meeting
Wednesday after making
some modifications. The
combined expenditures is
projected to be 8202,943.
Heritage museum curator
Bob Tremain explained
details from his ;32,000
capital expenditure list. The
figure includes 821,000 to
move and restore two of the
three new buildings expected
to be added to the outdoor
display area behind his
museum.
The cost of several items
showed changes from 1981.
Postage has more than
doubled, to 8500, while a
savings of ;200 was realized
on building insurance after
retendering. The ' cost of

benefits went up 82,500
partly due to sick days owed
to an, employee nearing
retirement, he said.
The Oil Museum showed
significant' increases in
postage and capital costs.
The latter included costs for
a new forge for the
blacksmith shop, a windmill,
and a new propane furnace
discussed at two previous
meetings.
A' uniform admission fee
system for both buildings
was suggested and acted
upon at the meeting.
Currently, the rates at the
Oil Museum are 81.25 for
adults, 81 for senior citizens,
75 cents for secondary school
students, 50 cents for pupils
from grades 5 to 8, and 35
cents for those from grades 1
to 4. At the Heritage
Museum, the rates are 81 for
adults, 50 cents for children
under 12, and 83 for families.
The proposed rate is $1.25 for
adults, 81 for students and
senior citizens, 50 cents for
children under 13, and 83 for
families of five.
Tremain noted that the
generosity of the Culture and
Recreation grant this year
has made a good impact.
This year, the ministry is
expected to donate 830,000
compared to 826,500 in 1981
and 812,500 in 1980.
Museum committee
chairman Harold Green said
the minutes of that meeting
will be presented by him to
county council February 3,
for its approval. A com-
mittee of the county's
committee heads will review
the museum budgets before
sending it to county council
for final approval.
Green said he had hoped
the museum committee
could have made some
• motions on the disposal of
some unneeded artifacts, but
the budget discussion took
the entire meeting.
Bell Aerospace working
on U.S. Army contract
Bell ' Aerospace In Grand
Bend 'is now working to
Complete a contract with the
U.S. Army for 12 hovercraft,
and the /km hopes to get a
renewed contract for
another 13 when the current
contract expires this fall.
According to tnanaging
director John Timbrell; the
assembly plant on Highway
81 is hoping the Army will be
sufficiently pleased with the
versatile cargo carrier that
they will request another
dozen.
The model being built, the
LACV-30, or Light Air
Cushion Vehicle, is a
militarized version ofthe
craft originally built in 1971
called the Voyage*' and
used by the Glnadian Coast
Guard. The hovercraft has
valuable applications •in
military support operations
such as transporting, and
unloading bulk payloads
quickly and efficiently. It
carries its own power winch..
About 90 people work in the
plant, where the hovercraft's
power module and control
cab are assembled. The two
power plants, Pratt and
Whitney gas turbines from
United Aircraft in Langeuil
Quebec, are fitted together
with the command cabin.
We try to buy u many of
our, parts from Canadian
suppliers u we can,"
Timbrell saki:'
The finishedis
sent to Bell Mrapace s
parent company's
headquarters in Buffalo
where the remainder of the
78 -foot by 36 -foot craft is
attached.
The whole machine is
modularly constructed,
which isimportant to the
military because it can be
easily taken apart and
transported by all, sea, or
even by truck. The hover-
craft can carry up to 30 tons
at speeds up,to 50 miles per
hour on water and 30 miles
per hour on land. Beaches,
marshes, swamps, sand
,deserts and ,frozen rivers
pose no problm to the vessel
- it can traverse them all
with ease. In fact, the
Voyageur prototype was used
on the St. Lawrence river as
an icebreaker for the p9ert of
Montreal.
"The air cushion is made
of rubberized material and
is supported lily pressure of
three pounds per square.
inch," Timbrell said. "Lift
fans of half-asound per
square inch each draw air
into the cushion, where It
slowly escapes through vents
around the cushion's edge,"
"The actual workload on
the engine is very light
because it 1s very easy to
replace the lost air," said
Timbrell, who is an
aeronautical engineer.
"Also, u the citable► area
increases, the payload of the
hovercraft increases."
' The hovercraft itself is a
British invention. A large
model, capable of
ca
cars and avengers, i=
on cross trips trips to the
continent, travelling at up to
60 miles per hour. -
The LACV.$0 can operate
in extreme temperature
conditions ranging from the
icy , Arctic to the heat and
humidity of tropical
locations. Timbrell men-
tioned salt -water corrosion
as a persistent threat to the
crafts hull, which is made of
interlocking aluminum
compartments. •
The plant's workforce is
drawn from communities as
far away u London and
Goderich. Timbrell himself.

ENGINEER'S VERSION - Shown above is one of several
design sketches suggested in the study done by the village's
engineers, Delcan of Toronto, for the sportsfield being jointly
planned' and built by village council and the lions Club.
VERSATILITY.ITS FORTE— Pictured above is the LACV-30, of which 12 are being builtby •
