Mobile breast screening van The staff of the Northwest- em Ontario Breast Screening Program has announced the arrival of the mobile screening van. This large pink van is 40 feet long, and has been spe- cially designed for women of Northwestern Ontario. The interior is decorated in soft feminine shades of dusty rose, giving it a warm, non-clinical atmosphere. There is a wheelchair lift that will enable those women who are physi- cally challenged to access the services. It also carries state- of-the-art mammography equipment. A mammography technolo- gist and a nurse-examiner will do breast x-rays as well as clinical breast examinations on the van. The mobile van is the tenth screening centre to be opened by the Ontario Breast Screen-. ing Program. The van will screen women for breast can- cer throughout Northwestern Ontario, from Marathon and Manitouwadge to the Manito- Schreiber budget continued from page 1 other fire equipment, and $5,000 for a reserve fund for a new fire truck.

Nortop grants An additional allocation of $2.3 million to the Northern Training Opportunities Pro- gram (NORTOP) this summer will ease the overload in fund- ing applications for this popu- lar summer employment pro- gram, Northern development and mines Minister Shelly Martel announced in a press released dated June 9. Premier Bob Rae announced that the Ontario | government would allocate an additional $20 million to cre- ate 8,500 new summer jobs for students, including new funding to NORTOP. "The demand for NORTOP assistance has been over- whelming," Martel said. "This speaks well of the impact this program has had on northern employers who are in a posi- tion to provide worthwhile job training to students." The Ministry has already allocated $3.5 million to sup- port 1,600 training opportuni- ties under NORTOP. The new funds are expected to support 2,000 more training positions. "The additional infusion of $2.3 million will be beneficial to all concerned," said Martel. continued from page 1 quality of life in Marathon, was altered to include Ross- port, Schreiber and Terrace Bay before it went to print, says Paternoster. "'We've updated the map to include Rossport, Schreiber and Terrace Bay," she says. "We were able to catch it on time." The reason our area was left off the map in the first place, Paternoster says, was space. "Originally, the map was just going to include Marathon, Sault Saint Marie and Thunder Bay," she says. When they realized they had more space, two provin- cial parks--Pukasawa and Neys-- were also included. "And then, because the map wasn't cluttered, they included Manitouwadge and Nipigon," she says. The matter came to light when Charlotte Kneipp of Jackfish pointed the omission Marathon brochures out in a letter to the editor she wrote to The News, -- June 16. The Aguasabon Chamber of Commerce sent Marathon a copy of the letter, as well as another letter expressing the Chamber's unhappiness with the brochures. Paternoster says the next printing of the first two publi- cations will probably be next year. "But you never know--this is the first year we've done it," she says. Putting the communities in will make the map a bit more cluttered, but she says they're going to do it anyway. "Because there was con- cern expressed, we took that into consideration and put them on the map," she says. "Tt was just something that happened. It wasn't some- thing that was done intention- ally, and now we're putting everybody in. And hopefully we haven't forgotten any- body." ad il "@ wm Yeas er nD, 'Sy; g BX "To my son Dion" Though you're not too for away, J miss you night and day, We've always been two different people, With problems, high asa steeple, you, such a smart fellow, me not far below Neither of us knowing which way to go: Now that you're gone, and J'm alone, J would be happy to have you home, If apart is the way it must be, Then J pray you won't forget.
