Community Centre When ? Where ?

It is some time since the public of Ocean Falls have heard anything new about the ‘proposed' Community Centre and many are anxious to know WHEN this much needed project will be under way. Current softball organization will wipe from our view much of the past winter's juvenile delinquency - there is a crying need for a facility where EVERY youngster will have the opportunity to let off steam of his own choosing. Each of our local sports covers much yet in the final analysis only the favored few make the team. A building complete with all the facilities of a modern gymnasium is the ONLY answer for such a community. In conjunction with such a building we should have an arena for ice in the fall & winter and roller skating in the summer. It is time Pacific Mills woke up and started construction of this "MUST" for the youth of Ocean Falls which has too long now been given only lip-service during Labor-Management meetings.

**********************

Ross T. McLennan formerly of this town but now employed with KVP at Esponla, Ontario piloted that town's senior Amateur Hockey Team to the championship of the North Shore District League of the Great Lakes region. Ross spent twelve years here as a paper maker and participated in many sports and community activities.

Legion Hall Labor

We have received enquiries whether or not non-ex-servicemen are allowed to help in building of the Ocean Falls Legion Hall. All are welcome to help build the hall. All work is non-paid voluntary labor. Workers are, however, covered by compensation in case of accidents.
