“While we are concerned
—and it would be fooltsh to
say we weren’t—we feel
there ts still Yume to pick ap
our deficit. I think we have
jusi got to be patient.”

And with some juggling of ,

the budget figures on his
pan, along with Victoria
picking up the cxisting tab,
adding $1 million for salary
and technical adjusimenis,
plus fire per cent of the
overall figure as previously
indicated, he feels sure there
will be no need for cutbacks
of any kind a1 Lions Gate for

His proyections are thai if

of $26 millon for che frscal

Fellis clearly feels Victoria
has Inue option other than to
meei the bospital’s deficit
and requirements of an
increase of five per cent.

"We have an obligation to
offer the best possible health

CHALLENGED VICTORIA

Fellis says the board has
previously challenged
Victoria to show Laons Gate
any area in which the
hospial may be lacking.
“And they can't do i.”

Fellis ts concerned about
siatements that Lions Gate is
facing a financial crisis and
thinks that, what has been
said rs largely alarmis: and
the kind of thing that may
cause conceTn to people
abour to go in for surgery.

“We just can’t make any
more economics other than
cutting oat services and thar
would really bq the wrong
direction "" he says

And be reassures. ““The

THE $100 JENN- ee UNDER ST rANDING

Replace your old range with at
Jenn-Air grill-range now and we'll pay up to $100
for the installation. In most cases, | installation

won’t cost you a

dime. Don’t delay,
as this is a limited

time offer.

Enjoy the great

taste of char-flavor

cooking on a Jenn-
Air range and never
worry about smoke,

grease and odors,

thanks to the built-
in surface ventila-

tion system. It’s

much more effective than ordinary hooded,
systems because the venting is level with the top

of the range. .
