Four separate drug raids result in six arrests of Valley residents Six Chateauguay Valley men were among dozens arrested last week and charged in connection with drug-trafficking, contraband- liquor smuggling, and for possession of weapons.Various law-enforcement agencies swept through southern Quebec and eastern Ontario in separate undercover operations, which resulted in more than 30 arrests and about 10 seizures of hashish, marijuana, weapons, cash, vehicles and hydroponic equipment used to grow marijuana.Hashish seizure Gerald Burton, 60, director of Our House Inc.in Ormstown, a drug- and alcohol-treatment centre which receives $100,000 annually in federal funding, was arr«@ ed September 27 in a Cornwall, Ont.shopping mall.Burton faces one count each of trafficking in a narcotic, possession of a restricted weapon and carrying a concealed weapon.Burton\u2019s bail hearing had been set for 2 p.m.yesterday (Tuesday).An Ontario task force arrested two men on September 26 at a Cornwall restaurant and seized 15 kilograms of hashish with.a street value of $300,000, along with two cars and $2,060 in cash.Police later arrested a third man, who at the time of his arrest was carrying a loaded 7mm automatic pistol.Ormstown\u2019s Robert Rice, 54, .charged with five courts of traf- -ficking in a narcotic, was released Monday on a cash-bail of $10,000.He was ordered to reappear in Comwall Court on November 4.' Another suspect, Derrick Dillon, 31, of Ottawa, Ont., who faces two counts of narcotic-trafficking, was also released Monday on a cash-bail of $2,500 and scheduled to return November 4.The Cornwall Police Service drug unit, the Ontario Provincial Police\u2019s East Region Crime Unit Godmanchester bridge repairs \u201cgood example\u201d for Huntingdon Five months of detouring about -six miles for residents on Arnold Sideroad in Godmanchester ended last week when the Watterson bridge re-opened following repairs.Quebec\u2019s Transport Ministry installed two new steel supports and a \u201cH\u201d beam under the 40-foot span across the Beaver Creek, to shore up the stone piers and reinforce the structure, at a cost of $25,000.The ministry delivered the repairs within the time-frame it set, said Godmanchester mayor Philip Leblanc, who said he was pleased with the job.Farmers with land on both sides of the bridge, and buses picking up children for school are no longer inconvenienced, he added.Not taking any chances that bridge repairs would be put off, Godmanchester Council had asked MNA André Chenail earlier this summer to keep track of progress in the ministry's work-list.Same trouble Huntingdon\u2019s Walker Bridge could easily be repaired the same way, Leblanc believes, as both bridges share structural similarities and now suffer from the same problems.Leblanc wants a meeting with ministry officials and Huntingdon mayor André Brunette at the Walker Bridge, which the ministry has estimated would cost $150,000 to repair fully.(VF) and the Ottawa-Carleton Regional Police co-operated in this four- month undercover drug investigation, which Cornwall Police Staff Sgt.Luc Brunet says is now concluded.RCMP operation One Elgin man and three men from the Valleyfield region, arrested last week during the RCMP\u2019s Operation Chameleon, were charged in connection with drug trafficking and contraband-liquor smuggling operations.Facing charges are Fréderic Brunner, 34, of Elgin; Martin Farand, 25, of St-Clet; Lucien St- Michel, 47, of Valleyfield and Gas- See DRUGS Page 2 The official opening of the Career Centre was marked by a ribbon-cut- ting.Shown, left to right, are: Centre director Iain Millar, Wayne Goldthorp of the CVSB, commissioner Doreen Newell, Serge Coté of the MEQ, and CVSB director Keith Fitzpatrick.$2 million Career Centre is launched in Ormstown.They\u2019ve done it again.Nearly 30 years after the first regional high school in the province opened at Ormstown, Quebec\u2019s first autonomous vocational training centre in the English sector is now up and running there.The Chateauguay Valley Career Education Centre was officially launched as an independent entity under the Chateauguay Valley School Board last week, marking the fact that it has truly left the nest of the Chateauguay Valley Regional High School, where it has shared quarters with the regular high school population for more than 20 years.The $2 million project, which involved buying an existing building near the intersection of Rtes 201 and 138, renovating and converting it to house academic, carpentry, home care, secretarial and landscaping programs, was accomplished thanks in part to the generosity of Chateauguay school board members, who agreed a couple of years ago to turn over their share of a sizable government grant to help with the purchase of the Ormstown location.See CAREER Page 4 Centraide sets $31,000 goal to run community programs This year\u2019s Centraide fund-rais- ing campaign opened last Friday with a goal of $31,000 for the Huntingdon zone of the South-west region.Describing the objective as \u201ca real challenge\u201d, campaign vice- chairman Yves Léveill\u20ac said that more than 100 volunteers will be involved in raising funds, which will be turned over to community and family support organization in this region.\u201cThe more you give, the more you get\u201d is the underlying philosophy behind the campaign, which will include seeking deductions-at- source from local employers and at \u2018local banks and caisses, special events such as the November 3 See CAMPAIGN Page 5 Attending the September 27 launching of the Huntingdon-zone \u20ac Centraide campaign were committee members and representatives of various community groups.Shown (left to right) are: front row: Gilles Tardif, chairman; Lise Tremblay, Un Coin de Chez Nous; Trudy Harvey, Anchor and Wings; Lucie Deschamps, ACEF; and campaign chairman Yves Léveillé; back row: Luc Montpetit, regional campaign chairman; Pierre Gendron, Centraide director; Nicole Goulet, Residence-Elle; Gisèle Grégoire and Marcel Lecompte of the Big Brothers and Big Sisters.(Photo: J.T.)

house had a well.Water for washing was brought from the river.Every house had a \u201crain-barrel\u201d.\u2026 Coal oil lamps were just beginning to take the place of candles.There was no train running from here to Montreal.When the young people held picnic at Chateauguay Lake, or 30 years ago elsewhere, they drove with teams of horses .Sunday was strictly observed.There were no amusements, not even whistling ( whistling used to be considered an amusement in those days: and Sunday School books were the only ones allowed to read on that day.Sermons were very learned and lengthy.The churches were well filled however, the children and young people conspicuous by their presence.Trained nurses were unknown.When there was a serious sickness in a family, the neighbors took turns in sitting up with the sick one and attending to the farm work, should it be the father who was ill.There were no maids.Instead there were \u201ctreasures\u201d known as hired- girls, who formed a part of the family life.When their day's work was done, they spent the evening in darning, sewing, mending and in helping the younger children with their lessons.October 5, 1966 1,000 POUNDS OF BONELESS

indoors from the fields just a few days before the fire, as the weather started to cool down.\u201d Neighbors managed from page 1 to rescue five head, but they too may have to be put down due to smoke
