Alice Killen of Courtice was chosen by the national organi- zation to spend six weeks at Walpole Island last summer with other "Beavers" from around the world. The beaver project was to build a workshop for the Walpole Indians and when 19-year-old Alice left for home, the project needed only a few touch-ups. Saturday, some of her friends from the island will perform some authentic tribal dances at the Hampton United Church at 7:30 p.m. David Nemis, northern Saskatchewan helping to build a church, will show films of his visit. Alice will show slides Saturday to the public. Fifteen Beavers from several countries will participate in a special Youth Service Sunday at 11:15 a.m, at Hampton Unit- ed Church. Johnny Yesno, a reputed In- dian hoop dancer, visited the beaver camp at Walpole Is- land during its "Pow-Wow" last summer. The annual Pow- ow featured a parade,. dance competitions and a_ bazaar. Operation Beaver entered a float in the parade which took second place. Dianna Tabobon- ding, a "Beaver" from Perry Island, was named Miss Oper- ation Beaver and rode on the float. "We were lucky enough to stay in a house at Walpole Is- land," says Alice. "The kids who went to Montreal Lake slept in Bell camps for six weeks." The island has three public schools and students at- tend high school in Wallace- burg.

Developments Ltd., To- ronto, who was present with his architect, William Shoe, Rn produced prints of the pro- posed complex, which he said would occupy about 150,000 square feet. : A special meeting to dis- cuss the project was arranged for Monday morning. Members of the traffic com- mittee, public works commit- tee, city planning director and board of control will be pres- ent. "Let's get them all here and say 'We want it'" said Con. Robert Nicol. "I am all for it," said Con. Frank McCallum, and Mayor Ernest Marks said he thought there might be a problem over parking which should be ironed out. After the meeting Mr. Fischtein said the two main buildings in the proposed com- plex would be a 20-storey high rise block with 200 apart- ments, and a smaller com- mercial, office and store block of 10 storeys.
