Councillors Take Oath Of Office Union School Section Sought
For S.S. 3,4,1, Bayfield Village
Vern Alderdicc, R. R. a 2. hippen, was named chair-
man of the Huron County School Area 4 I. at the inaug-
ural meeting of the board held on Monday in Stanley
Township Hall, Varna.
Vice-chairman is Jack Taylor. Brucefield. and other
members of the 5-man board are Brigadier G. L. Moran
Smith. Bayfield; William D. Wilson. Brucefield and
Bruce Keys. R. R. 1, Varna.
The School Area was created by County Council early
in 1965. effective January 1966. following recommen-
dation of the Huron County Public Schools Consultative
Committee which was formed in January last year. Its
responsiblities are the public school primary educatiin
of children in the townships of Stanley and Tuckersmith,
and the village of Bayfield.
Decision of the school boards in both Tuckersmith and
Stanley last year was to build a combined school at
Bruchfield to serve the pupils of both townships and
Bayfield. Tentative approval for this has been received
from the Ontario Department of Education.
Petitions presented at the first meeting of Tuckersmith
Council this week asked for permission from Egmondville
(SSF) to join with Seaforth for public school purposes,
and from Harpurhey. just west of the town for the same
permission. A third petition from SS 1 Tuckersmith re-
quested permission to join Hay Township School area,
and thus be able to send their pupils to Hensall school.
Petitions to Stanley Township from the school sections
of 3,4, and 9 requested permission to form a L'nion
School section with the village of Bayfield.
Both Stanley and Tuckersmith councils turned these
petitions over to the Huron CoHntv Consultative Com-
mittee for decision.

There is a three day presentation on CBC TV this week
which sounds worthwhile for rural persons to make a
point to watch. The topic is "This Business of Farming"
and deals with these subjects: "Growing Feed for Live-
stock", Feeding Livestock", and "Managing the Live-
stock Business".
Farmers from across the province will take part, and
interviewers will be from Kemptville, Ridgetown and
Guelph agricultural colleges, and the extension branch
of the Ontario Department of Agriculture.
Time is 10:30 to 11:30 in the morning, January 11,12,
and 13 and the sponsor is the Ontario Department of
Agriculture.
While New Year's visitors to Bayfield were disappoint-
ed with the lack of snow for winter sports, they would have
been well pleased with the snowfall that plumped down
on the village exactly a week later.
A foot of snow, more or less, fell in the area over the
weekend, an d swept by brisk winds, made highway tra-
vel hazardous in places before DHO plows could clear the
way.
