He wen tirst prize in that centest, the height of his career as a drummer that started when he sat in his high chair and beat eut rhythm wîth a speen. In the past few years, the public has heard littie of Billy until recently when he returned te his first love and became part of a rock and rell group called Lynda and the... Chanceliers. Now a student at Courtice Hîgh Schoel, Bill Wade and thîs combe is becoming one ef the most popular in the district.

The offer turned eut ta be one of those fast-selling gimmicks. She new finds ,,that for the next seven years she will be faced with monthly payments of about $85, for a total of over $7,000. The Chief of Police suggests that any others who signed anything with this firm should contact him immediately; also, he once m~ore warns citizens to be wary of any "free" offers. Peddlers sbould be asked te produce a licence from the town. Probably the best way Io treat these smoethies, if you don't know tbem, is te ask them te wait for a moment while you phone the police ta check. If they are legitimate, they'l stay.
