They were Norman Litt , '43, of Hanover and Harold Davis, 49, of Mirth Bay. Among the witnesses to the crash were Borden Litt, a brother of Norman's and Mr. Davis' 17-year- old daughter Dianne. . Dr. Kenneth MacNay, 'son of Mr. and Mrs. Alex MacNay of Lucknow, was in his intern year at St. Pauls Hospital, Vancouver, and left the end of June for Inubik in the North West Territories. Ken and' his wife Arlene planned to take up residence in this commun- ity of 1500, located 2000 miles north of Vancouver, 200 miles beyond the Arctic Circle. Inubik was a government built experim-. ental town, where all the major Arctic research was carried on. Most interesting to Ken was the 150 bed hospital which was new and modern and where he ' would serve as junior doctor with two others. 30 Years Ago MAY 1944 Rev. J. W. Stewart, local min- ister, was elected Grand Superin- tendent of Huron District Number Six at the annual convention'of the Grand Chapter , Royal Arch Masons. The district extended from St. Marys to. Southampton. He was also Worshipful Master of Old Light Lodge, Lucknow at that time. Safe crackers and car thieves were at work in Lucknow. They smashed into the safe at Silver- wood's Creamery and also stole a local car, which was later located at Guelph. A sledgehammer and two crowbars had been obtained at the CNR section house to smash the safe. The. loot was almost , nil. 50 YEARS AGO MAY 1924 OWners of cottages along the lake were notified by the Ontario Government ."that by, occupying a site by the lake shore, they are tenants of the province and would. be charged' an annual rental". It was stated that this information came as an unpleasant surprise to cottage owners at the lake beach- es, who thought they were occupy- ing a sort of no-man's-land, where sites were free. .The Gover merit took the view that; if the land could be occupied for a few months in the summer, it could be as well occupied permanently. S. S. No. 9, Ashfield had ..a . beautiful new, school under con- struction, the cost of which was estimated , at over $7000. What's New At Huronview One hundred and fifty students of Colborne Central School visited the home do Friday 'afternoon and presented an operetta "The Pied- Piper of Hamelin". The residents enjoyed this performance very much, as it took them back to their schooldays when this story was in one of their readers. A great deal of credit is due to the stud- ents and teachers for this fine dis- play of talent. Mrs. McClure, a great grandmother of one of the , students, thanked all those respon- sible for the program on behalf of the residents. • The Bayfield volunteers assisted' with Monday's activities with Mrs. Myrtle Parker joining Norman Speir and Jerry Collins to provide the music for the aftern6on. - The over 90 Club met on Wed- nesday afternoon and were enter- tained by three ladies from Wing- ham. Mrs. McNaughton gave three readings andjoined Mrs. Bosnian with several vocal duets accompanied at the piano by 'Mrs. Goy. Following the program tea and cookies were provided by the kitchen staff assisted by a volunteer Mrs. Luckham of Clin- ton. The music committee and.the young people of the Bayfield Baptist Church provided the program for "Family Night". Pearson thanked the group on behalf of the residents for the hour of singing and musical num- bers.

SMALL CAR HAZARDS • Two studies recently completed at the University ofNorth Carolina have added to growing evidence that small car occupants face much greater risk of severe injury and death than those faced by occupants of larger cars, says the Ontario Safety League. As re- . ported by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety in one study, researchers documented for the first time that the risk for severe injury and death is almost twice as great when two small cars crash than when two large cars crash. In the second, study, they found that belted drivers in sub- compact cars fare as badly in crashes as unbelted, drivers in fullT size cars, but the researchers stat- ed , "drivers who use 'a: belt fare much better than those who do not". DRUGS AND ALCOHOL According to the Ontario Safety League , Finland's Traffic Minist- ry has /set up a' special committee to develop regulations for drivers who are using prescription medic- ines. The committee chairman says that between one and two of every five patients in psychic-. tric outpatient clinics continue to drive while taking heavy doses of medication for the central nervous system. Many of Fin- land's drunken drivers have been found to have used both alcohol and drugs. MECHANICALLY SAFE CAR MOTORISTS I A mechanically safe car is essential for safe winter driving or driving at anytime. Make sure .the car you , and your family ride in is always in mechanically safe condition.. CARBON MONOXIDE MOTORISTS! To guard against the deadly air pollution hazard of carbon monoxide, make sure your car's exhaust system is fault free, and always keep a window open a couple of inches or so, when the engine is running. / H.
