Kinsmen won't operate centre The Brookiin and District Kinsmen Club has withdrawn ils proposai to operate the Brookiin Com- munity Centre, foilowing ob- jections from a numnber of organizations which currently use the centre. 1 Last week Recreation Director Wayne DeVeau met with representatives of eight groups which use the centre, and discovered that ail but one opposed the Kinsmen's bid lu take over its operation. The organizalions saidl lhey considered the town had an obligation lu maintain the centre, and lhey feit they would not get from the Kinsmen what lhey were now geting from the town. Representatives of senior citizens, YMCA, Wonien's Institute and a bridge club, said lhey were concernied about flexibility of bours in the building, and abouit a proposai thal the Kinsmnen would negotiate dlirectly wilh the tenants for uise ôftlîe centre. Mr. DeVeaui said these c'tieis sere based on traditionî, for thie centre lins beeni used by ie residents of IrookIini for 50 years.
