With the large influx of that fluffy white stuff commonly referred to as _snow, people are finally able to take up their favourite winter sports again. For example: cross-country skiing, At a recent Awards Ceremony held at the Humber College of Applied Arts and Technology in Toronto, * some local students were honoured for their individual achievement. Included among those students was Bruce Lang of Terrace Bay. Bruce won the Canadian Society of Safety Engineering Award; an award given to a student in the Safety Engineering Technology Programme who has maintained a consistently high academic standing. Congratulations go out to Bruce and his family here in Terrace Bay. Pictured above Bruce, right, accepts his award from Mr. F. Follett of Humber College.

Ontario North Now to hire students Students in Northern Ontario will be given ar opportunity once again to work at Ontario Place this summer, staffing the pavilions at Ontario North Now, as well as Ontario Place's other at- tractions. A special hir- ing team will be travel- ling to major northern centres this February to interview applicants for Ontario Place hosting positions. Successful candidates will receive a transport- ation allowance from the _ Ministry of Northern Af- fairs to offset the costs of travelling to, and re- turning from, Toronto. The allowance will be equivalent to the bus fare between Toronto and the employee's home town in Northern Ontario. Advertisements ap- pearing in Northern On- tario newspapers this week and at student placement centres in the North's colleges and universities, invite stud- ents to write to Ontario Place for application forms or to pick them up at anv local northern af- fairs office. These forms must be completed and returned to~- Ontario Place by Jan. 31, 1984 in order for the appli- cants to qualify for a northern interview. "In the past, all inter- views for Ontario Place jobs have been conduct- ed in Toronto, a prac- tice that made it diffi- cult and expensive for northern students to apply," said Northern Affairs Minister Leo Bernier. "By inter- viewing northern appli- cants in their own areas, "we are ensuring that Northern Ontario stud- ents will have an equal opportunity to apply for available jobs. In order to qualify as a northern candidate, a student must establish that his or her prime residence is in Northern Ontario, and that he or she intends to return to a secondary or post secondary institu- tion. : The Ministry -- of Northern Affairs also plans to conduct a one and a half day workshop in May during the train- ing week for Ontario Place staff. The work- shop will give all the hosting staff an appre- ciation and understand- ing of the entire north - its lifestyles, geography, resources, industries and attractions. Bernier 'added that regular staff from his Ministry would also be on duty at Ontario North Now at all times, as they were last year, and that Northern communities would again be setting aside weeks for spécial activities at. the pavilions. * ELF HELP House, office and apartment cleaning. ss Insured and bonded. - For a helping hand, tobogganing, snowman building, and most of all - skidooing. But now is the time to remember that not everyone appreciates those types of sports, especially if you're not doing them in the desig- nated areas. McCausland Hospital Administrator Don Ross told the "NEWS" that they have been exper- iencing some problems with ski-doos in the vicinity of the hospital. Several ski-doos have apparently been stop- ping on the heli-pad on the hospital property. When the machines are left running, the pro- bability of hearing an approaching helicopter: is very slim. Don Ross would like to ask the people of Terrace-Bay to please use another area for their sport. Not only is the area of the hospi- tal off-limits to skidoos, it is also posted as a 'quiet zone.' Please give the patients the bene- fit of a peaceful stay in the hospital and run your machines else- where. Also take note that under the noise by-law which is enforced by the Township of Terrace Bay, it is unwise to run your machines past the curfew. Upon confer- ring with the Clerk- Co-ordinator Larry Simons, the public are asked to note the follow- ing by-law. Continued on page 6 If you're a snowmobiler, make sure that you are aware of the rules and regulations that pertain to the use of these machines. : WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT Bonita Patrick & Michael Souliere a. re will be exchanging marriage vows on Saturday, January 21, 1984 at 2:00 p.m. in Grace Baptist Church, Bayview St., Schreiber We request the attendance of all our friends at this special occasion.
