The ordinance also stated that the Check Value installation project 'could not exceed $10,000. The second ordinance pertaining to this matter was also defeated by the c i t y fathers by a 4-3 vote. This would have authorized the transfer of funds so check values could be purchased and installed. Councilman who Voted against the two ordinances were" W a r d 1 Councilman. Glenn Maag, Ward 2 Councilman W i 1 Ham Gluck, Ward 4 Council Paul Blohm and Councilman-at-Large Les Raye.

JJotarytllMl Council Takes Action On Service Center North Canton City Council met in a special session Wednesday, Se.pt.22 and acted on an application for a $1.9 million grant for construction of a general service center. Mayor Charles B. Strausser requested Council's authorization to sign and file a Federal Local Public Works Capital Development and Investment Program Application to the Economic Development Administration. The proposed s e rvice center will be constructed on Dressier Rd. NW, and will primarily serve the Street Department. The service center will be on city-owned property immediately west of c i t y limits in Jackson Township according to City Administrator Macaulay J. Gosney. In addition to the s t r ee t department, the center will house the Park and Sign departments, and maintenance equipment. The entire ftindingwillbe provided by recent federal legislation that authorizes public works programs for areas o f high unemploy- Sen Johnson Reports From The Capital The most important question- in u)e minds of many Ohioans is "Jobs." The unemployment rate in this Senate District is higher than most o f Ohio. This state's overall unemployment rate is about 7% and ln some cities almost 40% of the young people cannot find a job. Everyone must be concerned. The tragic human costs of unemployment are crime, broken families, and personal despair. The economic costs are loss of jobs and higher prices because of an increased unemployment tax burden. These are serious social and economic prices to pay and frankly, amount in my mind, to crisis proportions. Something must be done. Surely a critical part of Ohio's economy is manufacturing but, information from the state labor office shows Ohio has lost 141,300 manufacturing jobs since 1970. Manufacturers are taking*- their jobs to other states and regions. This is clearly true in our communities and we must act to correct it. fa*^.'-***-^^ "Service niru Rotary" was the subject of an address givert to.the Rotary Club of North Canton recently by James E. Neff of Canfleld, the governor of this Rotary district. Outlining the global growth of Rotary, the international men's service organization, the district, governor called Rotary "the pioneer of the service clubs". "Rotary, club activities improve their communit-' ies, aid youth, elevate business standards and further international friendships and ' understanding," he said, the local club is one of 40 Rotary clubs in this district. , During his visit, Mr. Neff was informed of the local Rotary c 1 ub' s activities this year. The district governor also conferred with Dr. Richard Longbrake, local Rotary club president,, and David R.: Kinkema, club secretary, on matters of club administration and plans for future activities. Today Rotary has some 17,000 clubs with a combined membership of more than three-quarters-of-a -million business and professional men spr e a d throughout the world. Mr. -Gosney explained that the city Is part of the Canton Metropolitan Area, where unemployment is a- bove 8 per cent.

Strausser. Swanson, of 335 Cordelia St. SW,, replaces Michael Karlo, who resigned from the Zoning Board, and Breckenridge, of 1300 Pleasantview Ave. SE, replaces Jack Yost, who resigned from the Recreation Board. The zoning appointment expires Dec. 31, ,1977, the recreation appointment expires Dec. 31,. 1976. The North Canton Area Chamber of Commerce is again sponsoring their "Annual Halloween and/or Beat Louisville Poster Contest" and deadline for signing up is justaround the corner.

There will be two age groups - grades 4 - 6 in group A M grades 7 -12 In group B. Prizes will be awarded in each group. Week Of Prayer For Unity Set The 1977 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity will focus on the theme of hope as written in St. Paul's letter to the Romans, 5:1-5. Though thewordingof the theme of theweek-tobe observed J a n. 18 to25-tnay vary between country to country, each formulation is intended to express the conviction that the Christian hope, grounded in the victory of Christ over sin, suffering and death, Is especially r e levan t to the search for untiy in the Christian family. In the United States, the theme Is worded: "T his hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured i n our hearts t h r o u gh the Holy Spirit (Rom. 5:5). A paper drive willbe held Oct." 15,16, and 17 for the benefit of the Nbrth Canton Hoover High Instrumental Music Association. The trailer will be parked on the.lot of Super Duper on S.

Some 300 to 350 ;- bales of hay were destroyed by fire last Thursday afternoon Sept. 23, which were being stored at the new Hoover High North Campus !6y the landscapes Ross Nursery of 6944 Wales NW. The hay was being used for the __ed'ing ot new grass at the new vocational education facility 6_y7t*h'St. NE. According to a spokesman from Ross Nursery, each bale of hay is valued at $1.00 each, so loss to the landscaper is some $300 - $350. North Canton Police and volunteer firemen responded to the call. The NUrsery spokesman said that as workers spied the smoke corning 'from the bales of hav, they saw two boys running from the site. Ross Nursery workers chiased .the two boys as far as the football stadium where they lost track of the duo.

To
'-._;, It isn't always easy to make a decision as was
^he case with Councilmen at the North Canton City
-'Council meeting Monday evening, Sept. 27 in Council Chambers. Councilmen voted 4-3 against two
-ordinances which could have provided temporary
relief for ares residents who are having trouble
.{••wi<;h sanitary sewer backups in their homes during
.{heavy rains.
ordinance also stated that
prior to the city's undertaking the installation of the
check valve on any private
property, a waiver had to
be filed with the La w Department by each respective
property owner releasing
theCity of any liabilities
for damages sustained by
the property owner during
or after installation of the
check valve. The ordinance
also stated that the Check
Value installation project
'could not exceed $10,000.
The second ordinance pertaining to this matter was
also defeated by the c i t y
fathers by a 4-3 vote. This
would have authorized the
transfer of funds so check
values could be purchased
and installed.
Councilman who Voted
against the two ordinances
were" W a r d 1 Councilman.
Glenn Maag, Ward 2 Councilman W i 1 Ham Gluck,
Ward 4 Council Paul Blohm
and Councilman-at-Large

of installing the check

the matter.'The Mayor re-
pUedby stating that if passed, he would veto the legislation.
