NOTES

Traill wins again
Traill College won the Hope Cup for the second consecutive year for having the most walkers from a Trent group participate in this year's Walk for AIDS Sept. 28.
        Thirty Traill College walkers turned out for the sixth annual fund-raising walk. Of the 264 walkers participating, 112 were from Trent. They raised more than $12,000 for AIDS education at Trent and the Peterborough AIDS Resource Network.
        The Commoner won appetizers for 10 at the Peterborough Arms for donating the most money -- more than $500 -- the day of the walk.

New OPSEU executive

        The local's membership also elected Joe Muldoon vice-president and Doug Brown as chief steward. Julie Crook was acclaimed as treasurer and John Wales, as secretary. They occupy these offices for two years to September 1999.
