Open Arena Week Campaign Tonight The arena week campaign to raise $100,000 for a new artificial ice arena in Whitby will be form- ally launched tonight at the Legion Hall when a luncheon will be served by the Ladies' Auxiliary to workers, including many canvas- sers. The luncheon will be at 6:15 and when it is over the Arena Week drive for funds will be on in earnest. Monday, Tuesday, Wed- nesday, Thursday and Friday eve- nings canvassers will call at every home in Whitby, and citizens, it is hoped, will welcome them . with open arms and have generous sub- scriptions ready. As already noted, there is some $35,000 subscribed now, and the end of the week will decided whether or not the balance of the money will be forthcoming for the new arena. . The thought of the Arena Board is that as many citizens as possible should be partners in the rink en- terprise. In other words the rink, { | death kne is the last week of | | when if and when erected, will be | purely and solely the culmination of a community effort.

They named the settlement Lun- enberg in memory of the German town of LuenBurg and cleared land by the sea. It was not long, how- ever, before they turned to fishing for a livelihood. Although business has receded and there is little hope of luring fishing vessels back from Cape Breton ports, closer to the fishing grounds, the town reflects only prosperity--and the character of the canny Lunenburger. | URGES MEMORIAL MUSEUM | KINGSTON (CP)--Establishment Dancey, E.
