Festival of the Stars Wednesday at Midland | ie Tiny Township imposes restrictions by Adrienne Graham _ Gardner In response to requests from school officials and parents, Tiny Township has imposed restrictions on the operating of pinball machines during school hours. Bylaw The new bylaw enacted at Wednesday's meeting of Tiny council restricts the hours of operation of establishments offering this type of entertainment to 9 a.m. to 1 a.m. from Monday to Saturday and 11 a.m. to 1 a.m. on Sundays. These businesses will be required to close on Good Friday and Christmas Day. According to bylaw 14-81, all coin-operated games, pool and snooker tables must be licensed. Licenses will be issued by the township annually before May 15 for a fee of $25 for the first machine and $5 for each ad- ditional machine. Pinball Following complaints about students playing pinball in Lafontaine and at the ™ Huronia Mall during school hours, council has restricted access to "'places of amusement" offering this entertainment during school hours. Children under the age of 16 will not be permitted to enter between 9 a.m. and 3:15 p.m. from Monday to Friday during the school year.

Taxes Licenses will be issued to pinball establish- ments only upon payment of outstanding business taxes and the approval of the fire department and the Simcoe County Health Unit. There was considrable discussion of the bylaw by council on Wednesday. Councillor Gabe Brunelle suggested that schools and parents should be responsible for controlling student use of pinball machines during school hours, and not the township. However, Councillor John Butler argued that "These establishments have a respon- sibility to society and should play their part in restricting students." on hours when pinballs may be operated Regulation Tiny's bylaw is patterned after a similar regulation in Collingwood. , It provides for penalties for violations of the bylaw of not more than $1,000 and not less than $100. The bylaw was researched and presented after school officials at PSS, MSS, and Ecole Le Caron in Lafontaine requested the township to step in and control retailers of- fering pinball during school hours. Apparently, students were going to these establishments during the noon hour and remaining for the afternoon. Tiny council passed the bylaw unanimously after a lengthy discussion and some modifications to the license fee schedule. financially from leasing | Tiny Township... council highlights over are prepared to sell if Officials 2 'Triple Attraction' Since the Huron Indian Village was purchased by Huronia Museum Lid., during the past winter, a new ad- vertising slogan has appeared on this summer's tourist business horizon. The facilities at the entrance to Little Lake Park are being billed as a "Triple Attrraction"' Huronia Museym, Gallery of Historic Huronia } and Huron Indian Village. The triple attraction will be opening officially this Saturday with ex- perienced staff on hand to greet the Victoria Day holiday visitors. One significant change which has been made by the board of directors is in bringing the admission price into line with the rate being set at $1.50 adults, 50 cents students and 25 cents children for both the Museum com- plex and the Indian Village. All tickets must be purchased at the Museum gift counter. Curator Vern Farrow pointed out that the gift counter in the Huron Opens tomorrow at Little Lake Village has been closed, and an ex- panded line of souvenirs will be of- fered at the Huronia Museum gift counter. It is hoped this will allow for a wider variety of items. Some renovations have been made at the Huron Village, and it is ex- pected this work will be carried on for some time yet, even though visitors are present. The work will be scheduled so as not to disturb the customers. At Huronia Museum and Gallery of Historic Huronia, the immediate major change will be the increased ticket sale activity as well as the expanded souvenir sale. A number of new displays are being planned, and announcement of these will be made as the displays are mounted. Hours of operation for the triple attraction are: - daily 9.30 a.m. - 5.30 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. - 5.50 p.m. approve accounts | by Adrienne Graham Gardner The following accounts were passed at the May 13 meeting of Tiny Township: General Accounts $29,903 (including the 1981 garbage collection contract), Roads Department $11,429, Fire Department $1,435, Water Department $435.
