Grossman said statistics shew drinking has increased substantially in Ontario high schools since the legal age was lowered in 1971 and, since 97 per cent of the . high school population is under 19, the higher age should help rid the schools of drinking problems. He said the attorney-gene- ral's ministry will be asked to seek stiffer penalties for minors caught drinking. "The real problem is that judges have not been giving real fines,"" he said. _"They've just been giving $5 or $10 fines."

North Nestleton United Church held their Anniver- sary Sunday on May 28, Keith Pike a Layman from Oshawa, was the guest speaker with the topic "Don't look now, but we're being followed". The Sun- day School performed their special songs' and Laurel Vine sang a solo, 'Why Me Lord?'Robbie Mairs, Sunday School superintendent, con- ducted the services and Carol Mairs played the organ. Several of the Blackstock Charge attended as there was no Church service in Blackstock. Next Sunday things will return to normal, however, on Sun. June 11, Blackstock United Church will celebrate their Anniversary Sunday at 11:00 with no service at Nestleton. Rev. Rose conducted the Annual Rogation Service on the East Lawn of the While most of the time was spent by the group in the state of Parana, they did spend three days in Rio, one day in the futuristic capital of Brasilia, and in the spraw- ling metropolis of Sao Paulo, a city of some 12 million people. ~ And a highlight of the trip was two days on the Amazon River, deep in the jungles of the interior. Mr. Fitchett says he was sur- prised to discover that con- trary to what many North Americans may think, parts of the Amazon jungle, espec- ially the highlands, are under intense cultivation for agriculture. And a new high- way through the jungle will open up the country from east to west. Because of the rapidly modernizing process in Bra- zil, Mr. Fitchett says the universities are concentrat- ing on engineering, agricul- ture, and other technologies, and there are on the job training programs for trades 'apprentices. Brazil seems to be intent on reducing its dependence on foreign tech- nology. His travels throughout the - country did leave some neg- ative impressions, however. The most striking, according key utilities like ports, tele-® phones, petroleum and hydro electric production. And like Canada there is a large amount of foreign ownership of manufacturing with such companies as Volkswagen and New Holland. Although there is no equivalent to the Canadian Foreign Invest- ment Review Board, the Brazilian government act- ively encourages local ownership through tax incen- tives and low interest loans. The Brazilian trip was obviously a once-in-a-life- time opportunity for Mr. Fit- chett who is a partner in an Oshawa accounting firm. He has been active in the Oshawa Rotary Club for eight years including terms as secretary and president. And his work is not over yet as he will be addressing many of the clubs within district 707 to report on the 'Brazilian trip. , - Mr. Fitchett says also that the six weeks were gruelling 'in many 'ways with the change in climate, food, late nights, early mornings and constant travel.
