It is hoped' that everyone who Club requests grant The Goderich Figure Skating Club has requested a grant of $1,000 from the Recreation Board.

They would also like an ad- ditional grant of $500 to cover their initial operating costs for the 7:3-74 season, thus bringing MacHaughton gets position with racing According to the Toronto Star and Contemporary News Service, former .Huron MPP Charlie MacNaughton will become Chairman of the On- tario Racing Commission next week. Mr. MacNaughton resigned his post as Ontario- Treasurer last January and stepped down from his seat in the legislature 10 e with his family in Exeter. The seat was subsequently taken by Liberal Jack Riddell in the March 15 by-election. An appointment becomes 'necessary as the term of Brigadier F.C. Wallace, the present, chairman, expires at the end of March. Contacted at his home in Exeter on Tuesday, Mr. MacNaughton said he knew nothing about the appointment and would offer no further comment. He said that he had not heard the news reports. . Should Mr. MacNaughton receive and accept the appoint- ment, he will face many tough tasks, including recent hearings the ORC is conducting into race, fixing charges at Windsor Raceway, and the problem of off-track betting. The job is reported to be worth between $30,000 and $40,000 a year.

Each girl practised the tailor's hem to make sure she knew how it was done. the total amount . of the requested grant to $1,000. - According to Mr. Ellison, the. reason for this request is that the costs of their professional instructors may- go up as high as 14 percent next year. Also, there will he a $1. increase in the registration • fee this tear which will -go to the Canadian Figure Skating Association. Last year the grant was $400 but as the Club does not want to increase registration fees this original grant would apparen- tly not be enough to cover costs. Mr. Ellison also stated that there would be some fund raising project next year as usual but they fell- down on them this , year. It was also disclosed • that the skating club had large fee increases last year. The decision on the grant is pending- as the Recreation Board feels .that the skating organization 'As well as other orgairizations should en- deavour to raise more Money themselves and depend less on grants. Recreation Director Mike Dymond intends to discuss fund raising possibilities- with various growls.

Engineer Burns Ross who was present at the meeting along with a packed gallery of ratepayers and other interested persons, told council the tender, price was about eight percent above the estimated .cost o1' $90,000 for the work. However, Ross said, the price was most competitive and council agreed that the project should go ahead as scheduled without any deletions to keep the project within the estimate. , While Ross could not say when work would start, he said completion- date has been set for the end of June. Ross also reminded council that land developers at the end of Warren Street are .paying a considerable portion of the cost of the Warren Street Storm Sewer because they recognize that development land should not expect the cost of (Vvelop- ment to come from general • municipal funds.

Ross said that one house, one lot residences in the area to be serviced by ,the youth Storm Sewer will not have to pay anything toward the South Storm Sewer. He said the firm of Todgham and Case 'has been instructed•to revise assessments to one house, one lot residences so that no one is assessed more than $25..It is then legal for the municipality to pick up the tab for these homeowners.
