Port Perry's current cam- paign for the Heart Fund is meeting with warm response. Chairman Stuart Lane told the Star today that donations are coming in quite well and he is well pleased with results so far. "We have canvassed three of the six areas in town but still have the other three to finish up" My! Lane reported. 'Prior to thé commencement of the drive for funds, $41.00 was re- ceived from persons who gave as a memorial to the loss of a loved one, and in addition, we have colected $411.60 from one- half of the town," he added, Up until press time, this amount is in line with last year's, but ad- ditional donations will no doubt be received to swell the final figure. According to the Ontario Heart Foundation, 86¢. of every dollar raised in Ontario is spent on heart research at our portion o fthis 86% is spent to acquaint the doctors in Ontario with the latest research results. The balance is spent on fund raising, administration, public education and research co-or- dination. This years slogan-- "Give . .. so more will live" is undoubtedly a plea which few Heart Fund Campaign Meets With Warm Response Here "University --hospitals.>~~A-pro= people will ignore. Port Perry and district citizens are to be commended for their support of this very worth-while project. Welfare Grants Under Fire At County Council Contributions to welfare or- ganizations came under fire at the meeting of the Ontario County Council last week. A finance committee report recommended that an increase of $500 be made to the $1,000 grant given in 1964 to the Sal- vation Army. Deputy Reeve Irving Boyd of Port Perry questioned the grant, "I think that the grant should remain at $1,000," he said, "and I doubt the legality of these donations." ~4We-should give "the ~ Childs» ren's Aid Society 'an extra $2,000," said Reeve John Dan- cey, of Brock Township, "on top of the $10,000 the com- mittee has suggested." Reeve John Dryden of Whit-~ by Township moved that the section of grants be moved back to the finance committee.
