But the day he suffered the heart attack, he didn't feel very good at all. "It was like somebody driving a fist right into my chest," he recalls. In the weeks leading up to the attack, he knew something was wrong, especially the way his moods would change. He says he wasn't very nice to be around. _ Archie was-the first patient at Community Memorial to receive streptokinase, a drug that breaks up clots and frees the flow of blood to the heart muscle. Medical staff say there is a lengthy list of criteria a patient must meet before this drug can be administered safely. It is certainly not for all patients with heart problems. In Archie's case, it seems to have worked, much to his delight. He and his wife Anna have lived near Seagrave since 1974. He worked most of his life with General Electric in Toronto. As for his music (he plays by ear and is self-taught) he started on the piano as a 12- year old youngster and has been playing ever since, even in the pubs of England and 'Scotland when he 'was in Canadian forces during World Ad sign must go: A Port Perry restaurant owner has been given two weeks to remove a portable sign advertising his business.

He asked for amendments to the township sign by-law which would allow him to keep the portable sign in use.

Mr. Amitovski said his business needs that portable sign to catch the attention of passing motorists as his restaurant is not visible from the highway. He was visibly disappointed with council's ruling on Monday, saying "perhaps we'll just have to move the (restaurant) business away from Port Perry." War 2. Archie has suffered from angina for many years and admits he may have been his worst enemy leading up to the serious heart attack. "I didn't know enough to start taking things easier," he said with a grin. He would often load up the car with heavy electronic key boards, speakers and amplifiers, knowing that - this was putting a strain on the ticker. Now, he has no choice but to slow down and take it easy. But chances are pretty good he'll be on his feet soon and putting smiles on faces again with his music.
