Mrs. Kirkpatrick said Mrs, White was being kept so busy that the Red Cross may have to appoint a treasurer to handle part of the work load. She said the Red Cross was "very very pleased" with the way the program was operating in the area. "We have 17 part time homemakers at the moment and I think that will be enough until the spring," she added.

The meeting was held in the Cobourg town hall, Hamilton councillors expressed the concern of the Hamilton township property owners who live advacent to the creek. The residents are afraid that the increased water flow will result in flooding of the creek. The councillors discussed the report from Cobourg engineers which stated that the storm sewer would have significant effect on the creek. It was on this report that Hamilton approved construction of the sewer. After discussing the matter with the engineers, however, the Hamilton councillors feel that sufficient information is not available to verify the statement that the sewer would not have significant impact on the creek. Nothing was resolved at the meeting in Cobourg. Cobourg council ordered stop work on the sewer Sanford students OPP search for bicyclist OPP searched Highway cident with a car.

Give the United Way Thanks bo you - its working increase A 15 per cent increase in full-time post-secondary enrolment has been recorded by Sir Sandford Fleming College, cording to current statistics showing a total registration of compared to 1,701 last September. Included is a 20 per cent increase in first year enrolment, and a seven and 16 per cent jump in second and third year registration, respectively. College student services chairman Douglas S. Kirk said that while the first year increase was portant, the figures for second and third year were very gratifying. "Each year our retention rate is higher, an indication that students feel their College careers are worthwhile," Mr. Kirk said. This year, 89 per cent of students eligible to enter second or third year returned to Sir Sandford, he noted. Mr. Kirk gave the continuing high employment record among Sir Sandford students as one possible factor leading to the current enrolment increase, pointing out that about 95 per cent of last year's graduates are employed in fields related directly to their College training. Mr. Kirk noted that some of this employment success is due to province wide Ontario government restrictions on the number of students allowed to enter the first year of certain College programs. "While we agree with this policy, it should be realized that, ironically it has a negative effect on enrolment, since some of the most popular programs have these restrictions," he said. An example, accoring to Mr. Kirk is the nursing program which has wide appeal but is restricted to the current enrolment of 90 in first year. He said another factor leading to the enrolment increase could be a noticeable development of school spirit at the new Peterborough campus on Brealey Drive. "The building has been completed for over a year, and new classrooms and labs, coupled with the swimming pool and other recreation and athletic facilities, have led to a positive on-campus atmosphere among students that undoubtedly has been communicated to secondary school graduates." Overall increase at Sir Sandford in 1973 was two per cent. construction on September township council that any would be at th 16 but told Hamilton delays past September 25 township's expense. iiiiffi M AUTO SERVICE DONROY Repairing |f . ; ^#'J| CARPENTER BUILDER Recoring ^%/:j|^JJ ilw>.:> between Cobourg and Port llupe Phone 3/2 309/ V-iJ* 3m 35 New work, repairs and alterations MAURICE ENDIC0TT_ Septic Tank Pumping Domestic & Commercial GERALD FINLAY Construction Ltd. 372-2334 Emergency Services LAKESHORE AUTO ELECTRIC ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT PARTS 22 Queen St. Cobourg TV TOWERS Rotor, color antenna installation & repairs OSHAWA TOWERS MANUFACTURERS OF T.V.
