Friday, March 23, 2001 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER Drug seemed to have positive result on Young from page 2) interologist.

For the record, it was members of the Oakville-Trafalgar Lions Club and not the Oakville Lions Club who got up early Saturday morning and braved a snowstorm to drive Williams into Toronto in order to continue a 79-year-old tradition deserves proper recognition.
