_ Runway resurfacing to begin next week Work on the resur- facing of the Huronia airport runway will begin next week. The federal Ministry of | Transport last week, awarded the tender for the project to Fisher- Farrand Ltd. of Barrie in the amount of $64,000. other bidders for 'oject came in at just u $100,000, while a fourth estimated $112;000 as its cost for the gravelling project. According to airport commission secretary Guy Maurice, the resurfacing project will necessitate the closing of the airport for the duration. Jack Shelton, regional manager for public af- fairs with the Ministry of Transport, estimated that the work would be completed within six weeks. The gravelling project will include the 3,000 foot runway, a 265 foot taxiway and a 200 by 125 foot parking apron.

People have come to think driving.a car is a right but it should be considered a_privelege, said McMurtry. McMurtry defended his action of directing crown attorneys to prosecute those professional athletes who violate the criminal code. He was referring specifically to professional hockey. He said he feels the hockey arena should be a place where spectators Public health nurses can enjoy one of the world's finest sports without being subjected to violence. "The fact that such violent conduct has become commonplace doesn't mean it should be tolerated or accepted," said Memurtry. He told the audience that every individual has the responsibility to be involved in the problems facing our community. "Responsible people,' he said, "simply cannot remain detached." He stressed that every individual should look around 'and not be reluctant to make a concerned committment to the world in which he lives. will picket tomorrow Striking public health nurses will be picketting outside the health centre on King Street in Midland tomorrow afternoon.
