10 YEARS AGO
MAY 1964
Two men lost their lives in a
plane crash at AeroGreen Ponds
air strip on the 6th concession,
Kinloss Township. 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

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. •

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

safe car is essential for safe winter
