Box 40 ; _ Terrace Bay, Ontario POT 2WO 'Patches' - A video to help families surviv Nancy Gould - Doetzel was in Terrace Bay the weekend of the September 7, to capture scenes for her video, Patches. Doetzel, born and raised in Terrace Bay is a certified alco- holic counselor and a journal- ist. The autobiographical video is about living in a home with a mother and a brother who are addicted to drugs. It will reveal some of the techniques Doetzel used as a child to survive the hurt and pain that took place in such a family. "I used the natural surround- ings, the lake, the rocks and the bush during my childhood as shelter - as a way of finding peace of mind," she said. She returned to Terrace Bay to get as close as possible to the truth. Her mother Clara McDonald and her sister Gail Johnson will be play them- selves in the video. Patches is an educational video that is being produced by (L-R) Clara McDonald, Nancy Gould-Doetzel and Gail John- son, filming scenes for patches at Clara's crafts booth at the Fall Fair in Terrace Bay Doetzel to promote wellness and a healthy lifestyle. "I want to give other people who may be having a hard time in like homes hope that they too can survive and learn from it," she said. "I want to use my past to reach out and help other people heal the wounds of their past. " The video will be used in counselling workshops and schools to help build self- esteem Bell to improve service in area Service improvements, including the installation of new equipment, accounted for $148,600 in capital expendi- tures last year for Bell Canada's 1,067 customers in Terrace Bay. Projects included expansion of trunking capacity and instal- lation of additional customer lines in the local switching cen- tre to accommodate growth. Bell spending in Terrace Bay last year also included $62,300 in municipal taxes, of which realty tax accounted for $1,800, business tax for $500 and gross receipts tax for $60,000. Bell serves 978 customers in Schreiber and last year spent $47,000 in the community on municipal taxes. This includes a realty tax of $5,700, business tax of $2,300 and gross receipts tax of $39,000. Ontario's gross receipts tax is set at five per cent of all telecommunications revenue from Bell operations here in the preceding year. In 1990 this came to $31.83 per Bell rental phone. The amount appor- tioned to each municipality is calculated by multiplying this figure by the number of Bell rental phones in the municipali- ty. The company's capital expenditure is expected to reach $60,000 in Schreiber and $60,000 in Terrace Bay. Pro- jects planned or underway include the replacement of the existing telecommunications ao LAKE SUPERIOR HIGH SCHOOL URPLUS SALE of desks, tables, typewriters, some woodworking tools and miscellaneous items at LAKE SUPERIOR HIGH SCHOOL TERRACE BAY, ONTARIO on Saturday, September 21st, 1991 10:00 a.m. - 12:00-NOOR =f computer desks, link between.

Bell plans to spend a total of $2.2 billion this year through- out its territory. Of this amount, roughly $1.4 billion will go towards improving service and equipment for Ontario cus- tomers. Over the next five years the company will spend about $11 billion to deliver service to cus- tomers and meet new customer demand. The conversion of the Bell network to digital technol- ogy will alone cost some $1.6 billion. "This technology has opened the door to a whole range of new Services and improved ser- vice quality," says Georgie Hari, Bell's local manager. "By the end of 1991, all of our long-distance switches will be digital and by the end of 1995, 90 per cent of our local lines will be served by digital -switches."
