Issuing two speeding tickets was only part of the many inci- dents that kept the Terrace Bay Police Force busy since June 20. Poiice Chief Russ Phillips told the News that the force is keeping an eye on the highway because of the accelerated occurrences of speeding lately. _ Phillips said that few of the tourists passing through our area are slowing down once they get to town. Two of the possible reasons Phillips gave for the problem were because of the relatively nice weather and also because tourists are trying to make time on their trip. He said that because there are more children out now, the force will be keeping a closer watch for speeders. Skidding on field The Terrace Bay Police Force is also currently investigating a case of purposely driving on and tearing up the ball field behind the Texaco gas station. This has occurred before said Phillips and when the culprits are found they will be charged under the code. Liquor seized During the period between June 20 and July 10, there were four instances. of liquor being seized. Schreiber OPP very quiet week One motor vehicle accident east of Schreiber was investigated by the Schreiber OPP last week during what they report was a very quiet week. The vehicle, owned and driven by Steven Boon of Schreiber, left the highway while travelling west toward Schreiber. The car struck a light standard and rolled over. The driver sustained only minor injuries in the July 14 acci- dent that occurred 1.1 kilomtres east of Shcrieber. Boon's 1986 Mercury was demolished in the incident. The Schreiber detachment of the OPP have now been issued with a Borkenstein Breathalyzer which is an improved instrument for analysing the breath of a sus- pected impaired driver. Two constables at the detach- ment are trained and qualified to operate this instrument and it will be used in conjuction with the R.I.D.E. program of stop checks. Great Lakes to build in the United States Thunder Bay, Ont.- Great Lakes Forest Products Limited will proceed with a joint venture involving five U.S. newspaper publishers to construct a 180,000- metric ton per year newsprint mill in Northeastern Washington State, Great Lakes Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Charles J. Carter announced on July 7. "For construction purposes, timing is now of the essence for the success of this project," Mr. Carter said. "Recognizing this, governmental agencies have indi- cated that the final environmental permits required will be pro- cessed immediately with the objective being finalized by the middle of this month (July)."

Mr. Carter siad that this project offers an attractive opportunity involving an investment by Great Lakes of approximately $60 mil- lion (Cdn. funds) over a two-year period. This is in addition to the $3S0 milllion the company will spend on expansion and modernization of its facilities in Northwestern Ontario over the next five years. . "We are confident that this investment in the United States, our major market, will yield returns which will contribute to our financial stability here at home," Carter said. As well as Knight-Ridder, the publisher-partners include Kearns-Tribune Corporation, McClatchy Newspapers, Central Newspapers Inc. and The Copley Press, Inc. The publishers have entered into firm contracts to purchase more that 70 per cent of the total mill output and the balance will be sold on the open market. The manufacturing facilities will include a thermo-mechanical pulping plant and a 515-metric ton per day twin-wire newsprint machine. Wood required for the mill will be purchased from sawmills and chip producers in the area. T-ball Baseball The Bluebird Bomber T-ball team recently held a draw.
