commented that t e

noted there is very little
money set aside in the
budget for it.

apply for a further $450,000 h
funding under the Ontario
Neighborhood Improvement

provides matching funds to
help municipalities upgrade

funding from ONIP two
years ago, but was turned
down on its request last year.
At the start of the meeting,
council unanimously ap-
proved two motions ex-
pressing support for the
Wingham Day Care Centre.
The first motion notes
"grave concern" in the town
and surrounding com-
munities regarding the
possible fate of the centre

leading role in the fight to
Preserve the day care
centre, as its spokesman on
day care matters. Mr. Kepas
noted that would make it
possible for her to speak on
behalf of the town and not
just as a private citizen,
assuming that what is said is
in line with council's policies
and positions.
The, move was questioned
by Councillor William
Or nmp, who expressed
Oncern about appointing
e person to speak on behalf
of council. He said lieras not
overly .concerned about this
particular case, but did not
want to set a precedent. In
the end, however, it passed
without opposition.
Mrs. Bailey told council
she had addressed a com-
mittee on day care at
Queen's Park and that fur-
ther meetings are planned to
carry on the fight.
"The children's centre will
not close!" she declared.
TO THE ROARING CHEERS of the students, the junior boys burst into the spotlight
and along a path of encouraging cheerleaders. This rousing start was one of the high-
lights of the recent Winter Carnival at F. E. Madill Secondary School. (Clint Pewtress
