Masters, formerlyý of Bowmanville, had been 'appointed Production Manager General Products of Canada for Goodyear Canada Inc. He will report directly to H. M. Wells, Vice President General Products, and plant managers at Bowmanville, Quebec, Owen Sound and Collingwood will report to him. The appointment became effective December ist. Mr. Masters will continue to live in Collingwood. That's a nice boost for Don. EAT CROW - A few weeks ago we ran an editorial criical of the many government operated lotteries that we feel are ruining the small draws held by local clubs. Wouldn't you know that former councillor Ken Hooper would phone last week to sec if we feit the same way since our brother-in-Iaw won $100,000 in a Wintario Lottery. Now and again our words do corne back to haunt us. MOTHER BELL SLIPS - Nestieton correspon. dent, Mrs. Bruce Heaslip, writes that news wab scarce this week because the phones in that area were out of commission for a week and she couldn't contact other members of the community as usual. Let's get on the baîl Mother Bell and get those phones working. It can be lonesome out that way if you can't talk to your neighbors. QUITE AN ELECTION -- Best wishes must be extended to the successful candidates in the election on Monday and condolences to the losers who tried hard but couldn't rally enough support to overcome their adversaries. On Monday night at the Court-Fire 'building, a fair crowd of interested spectators was on hand to watch the returns being posted on the boards by Recreation Director Bud Fanning Joe Kennett and Planne rGeo. Howden while the compilers were working hard receiving the returns in the back rooms. It was a weIl run production except f or a couple of screw ups when returns weren't received'from polling subdivisions. CHRISTMAS LIGHTS TOUR- The annual Kinsm-en Christmas Lights Tour for Senior Citizens will be held on Sunday, December 19th and it is hoped Ontario Hydro will continue to have sufficient power so people will be able to leave their otiedecorative lights on at least for that occasion. Also, it is hoped the characters who every year go around breaking or stealing outside lights will hold off completely or at least until the tour is over. NEED CARRIERS - We have openings for carrier boys or girls in the'Hetherington and Hobbs :St. area. Contact this office for more details. The two contestants in Newcastle's mayoralty race on Monday show considerable strain as they peer at the resuit board to learn their fate.
