(From Page 1) TARQUINI Organization of Cherry Hill had been hired by the township to apply for the technical assistance, but a representative of the company at last week's session indicated it would probably be in the municipality's "best interest" to apply for the 8300,000. He said the township had a • good chance" of receiving the grant, noting that projects creating permanent jobs are highest on the sta'tc’s priority list

According to Mr. Kelly, about 20 per cent of the jobs created by the company would be part-time and be filled by senior citizens. 40 to 60 per cent of the positions would be filled by disadvantaged people thru the county Private Industry Council. The remaining jobs would be filled from the rest of the local population, priority being given to Lower Township and West

Cajle May residents.

A Lot Like Christmas (From Page 1) Cape May will hold Ita 17th annual community Chriatmas Parade, starting at 7 P The parade will include home crafted and professional floats by churches, civic groups and organizations, bands fire trucks decorated in Christmas lights, ( rescue squads and clowns. Santa will appear on a fire truck, but all other Santas are illegal. * •THERE WILL be no Santas on any float,” the rules state. "No children dressed like Santa', and/or Uncle Santa or the like. Observations show that small children have no way of distinguishing a child Santa or a stuffed Santa from the real

thing.”

Santa Claus is having a hard time in Cape May County in the early going. A promotion to have him arrive in Wildwood by helicopter has been kayoed because of a city ordinance that prohibits the use of helicopter for such a purpose. There is no ordinance that prevents Santa from arriv-

ing by sled, however.

Helicopter or not, Wildwood has tome up with a gimmick to help Santa at Thursday night’s 7 o’clock-parade in that city. The special guest will be the Phillies Phanatic who plans to asIJSanta to bring the Phillies some bell playljs who won’t collapse in September, and the Eagles some players who won’t collapse every Sunday. The West Cape^May Parade also places a ban on frustrated pitchers Who tike to

throw .things.

"All candy is to be handed out instead of thrown," the rules read. "Children have been hit by hard candy and it hurts. If candy is thrown, children run into the streets and it can cause a child to be hit by oncoming vehicles. Please plan to hand it out.” For the artistic minded, the Cape May County Library will hold a Gingerbread House Workshop at the library on December 9 at 7:30 p.m. Artist Lois McClure will give instructions in the baking, construction and decorating of the gingerbread house. Recipes will be provided with

a pattern.

. The most innovative pre-Christmas celebrations will take place in Victorian Cape May. Something is scheduled for virtually every day. Tonight, for instance, a workshop on decorating for Christmas, led by Tib Lamson, will be hold at the Carriage House on the Physick Estate. On December 9, 11, 16, 18, 23 and 30, there will be open house from 7 to 9 p.m. at four Cape May Inns featuring children’s, Dufth floral and Victorian decorations. SPECIAL CHRISTMAS entertainment is planned. The Jersey Cape Performing Arts Guild will present Charles Dickens’ "A Christmas Carol," at the City Hall auditorium at 8 p in. on December 10 and 11 and al 3 p.ift on December 12. The

Claus will be making numerous appearances, starting as early as last weekend. It makes one wonder where he will get the energy for the real visit on Christmas

Eve.
