valedictorian
"We must never be
hesitant to start over again,"
Wingham native Trudy
Holmes"told 275 of her fellow
graduates last. Friday at
Fanshawe College, London.
Miss Holmes was the 1985
valedictorian.
She received her early
education at ,the Wingham
Public School and the F. E.
Madill Secondary School.
From high school, she went
on to the University of
Western Ontario, London,
and graduated in 1979 with a
bachelor of arts degree in
history.
After, working) as a library
assistant and volunteer co-
ordinator at the Cross
Cultural Learner Centre in
London for four years, she
said she needed more
challenge.
Her desire for a challenge
led her into the legal office
administration course at
Fanshawe. Miss Holmes has
accepted a position with
Canada Permanent Trust in
Toronto as a trust and real
estate administrator. It is a
new position and she will be
dealing mainly with estates.
However even with a new
job she said she expects
some day she will return to
school, maybe in "seven
•
years or so".
She told the graduating
members of the school of
business and the school of
continuting education that
wasting human talent is "the
ultimate immoral sin".
Her interests are as varied
as sky diving and em-
broidery, classical music
,and cross-country skiing.
She also is potically active
and has been a poll clerk,
scrutineer and canvasser.
While at UWO, she belonged
to the choir and the history
club and was one of the
founding members of its
Physically -Handicapped
Students' Association.

P. Sushycki speaks to
business association
Paul Sushycki, advertising
manager of Wenger Public-
ations, made an interesting
and informative presenta-
tion last Wednesday evening
to members of the Wingham
Business Association.
He discussed a possible
town -wide advertising
promotion which would high-
light the desirability of
shopping in Wingham. It
would include both print and
radio advertising.
Mr. Sushycki suggested
stressing the merchandise
first and the merchants
second as one way to attract
prospective shoppers. He
also illustrated his talk with
examples of tried-and-true
advertising techniques.
Those in attendance ex-
pressed enthusiasm at the
presentation and the associ-
ation's advertising commit-
tee is planning to meet with
media representatives, in-
cluding Mr. Sushycki, in the
near future to discuss the
proposal.
Also discussed at the
meeting was the possibility
of having, a guest speaker
brought in to the October
meeting of the assocation.
Frank G. Thompson, pres-
ident of Corporate Motiva-
tion Systems, was suggested.
He is an after-dinner speaker
who has gained renown with
his talks on motivation,
communications and sales.
Some association mem-
bers expressed concern over
the cost of bringing Mr.
Thompson to town. However
they were pleased to hear
that Advance -Times publish-
er Barry Wenger had offered
to pay half the cost if the
association members were
interested.

Yesterday we had our box
social. We dressed up in

We are using the money to

for passing the related

filed in respect of that bylaw,
both that appeal and the
capital expenditures for the
works shed will be consider-
ed by the board at the same
hearing."

departed for England. He
saw active service in Ger
many, Holland, France,

came to the Wingham area
in 1971 and had lived retired

are his wife, the former

"it wilf be pointless. Council
won't need OMB approval to
proceed after the coming
election."
He says "A hearing better
clear the air. This can't go on
forever (squabbling about
fire protection in the town -
However, he admits he will
be disappointed if the public
hearing ends up in a decision
that does not favor Howick
Township Council's plans.
"If all of council's plan-
ning is stopped by a petition.
bearing false information, if
such a thing can have a
bearing on years and years
of planning, we don't need
local government' at all. We
might as well be ruled by
deputations."
He says, "The petition
(signed by 1,092 Howick
residents) is not a true
representative of the feeling
of the people. There are only
a few concerned people who
are doing all they can to stop
the plans of council."
On the other hand, if the
OMB sides with Howick
Township Council, he thinks
that ought to put an end to
opposition from the Con-
cerned Taxpayers of
Howick.
"It ought to," he says,
"Whether or not it will is a
different story."
