Varnamtown Sets Rules For Using Town Hall BY DOUG RUTTKR Vamamtown residents who want to use town hall for family reunions or other spccial events will have to follow a set of guidelines the town board approved this week. Among other things, residents must pay a S25 deposit before they can use the building. They'll also have to clean up the town hall and make sure it's locked by 1 1 p.m. Alderman Ada McDonald, who chaired a four-member committee that drafted the rules, said use of the town hall will be reserved for "spe cial occasions" and not for weekly or monthly meetings of clubs or or ganizations. The town board, which approved the guidelines at their meeting Mon day night, reserves the right to turn down any request for use of the converted house on Vamamtown Road. Rules say that nobody under the age of 21 would be allowed to re quest use of the town hall. No smoking or drinking of alcohol will be allowed in the public building. Residents who want to use town hall must sign a form that outlines "As long as the date is open, it doesn't matter if they ask the day before." ? Alderman Ada McDonald On use of town hall the rules and give the town a S25 deposit. The money will be relumed if the group cancels its use of the town hall or if the building is used and left clean and in good condition, ac cording to the new guidelines. The person who signs for use of the town hall will be held responsi ble for damages and will pay the town if damage exceeds the S25 de posit. The rules say that all requests for use of the building should be made at least 30 days but not more than four months in advance. Mrs. McDonald said asking ahead of time should ensure the town hall is available. "As long as the date is open, it doesn't matter if they ask the day before," she said. Aldermen plan to keep track of the cost of cleaning supplies for the first year to see if they should con tinue furnishing supplies to people who use the town hall. Mrs. McDonald said she's willing to coordinate bookings for use of the town hall. But the town needs a volunteer to check out the building after it's been used to make sure it's cleaned and locked. In addition to Mrs. McDonald, town residents who helped draft the guidelines were Emma Lee Caison, Diane Davis and Pam Galloway.

WHAT IS 4-WHEEL ALIGNMENT? Simply put, the front wheels steer the car. But the thrust, or direction of travel for the car, is determined by the rear axle. This is true for any car, even for front wheel drive models. Confusing? Not really. Imagine a line that divides your car in half, lengthwise. If the rear axie is aligned correctly, the thrust line will match this centerline exactly. If, however, the thrust line is off to the left or right, the car will attempt to travel in that direction. After 4-wheel alignment, all four wneels on your car will be parallel. Handling performance will be higher, tread wear will be lower. ^^^M^iImin^ton's Oldest Tire Dealer OPEN MON.-FRI. 7:30-5:30 SATURDAY 7:30-12:00 SOUTHPORT N.
