FLAG. CEREMONY APPROVED BY CHAMBER Terrace Bay Chamber of Commerce met Thursday evening, presided over by Neil Cornthwaite in the Recreation Centre's meeting room. Margaret Sim- mer recorded. The president reported there had been no reply from the Postmaster General at North Bay with re- gard to the box office lobby hours. He advised there had been many demands for brochures for the ' tourist trade also some from the Dept .of Tourism and Information.

These were resolutions passed TO ADDRESS INTER-FAITH GROUP at the twenty-ninth annual Convention held at the Lakehead last Fall.

He will follow through with a review of membership fees which will be presented at a general meeting on March |8th.
