AMU txposittor 4, Despite some opposition to changes in the provincial electoral boundaries in the area, Liberals from Huron and 'Middlesex counties got 'together at the Dashwood Community Centre on Wednesday night and smoothly 0^ merge i their• allegiance to a new Huron-Middlesex Provincial Liberal Association. Ian McAllister of Hay Town- ship was named president of the new association which will repre- sent Liberals from 20 communi- ties from the two counties. The Middlesex municipalities of McGillvary, Biddulph, East and West Wilhain, Adelaide, Parkhill, Ailsa Craig and Lucan have with all ati.401KOes in the present riding of Huron with the' exception of Hullett and McKillop. The two townships have been placed in the new Grey-Bruce riding. . Meeting chairman A.Y. McLean of Seaforth explained to the 1,60 Liberal faithful attending that while the new riding of Huron-Middlesex had 'not yet been, approved it was presently before the Legislature and was expected to receive finai reading this week. The only indication that the new association is a combination of two present ridings came in the election of officers set out in the constitution. Of the five vice- presidents to be in office, three must be from the Huron area and two from the Middlesex area. Municipal representatives from both present ridings expressed displeasure at the change but all indicated that since it was very likely to be approved, they would have to make the best- of the situation.. As Reeve Aubrey McCallum of East Nissouri, representing . the warden , of Middlesex said, "We're against the division but if we must be divided we couldn't be ping with a better bunch than Huron." MPP Jack Riddell commented that he thought the boundaries would be pa ed as presented and doubted if Adelaide township would leave the Huron-Middlesex designation ti as has been conjectured. The meeting adopted the con- stitution of the Huron Liberal Association ,with some changes, including the stipulation that three ,of the• vice-presidents be from Huron and two fro'm Middlesex, Another change was the addi tion of all chairmen of municipal associations to the executive. Also to be included on the executive are the past president, all candidates or standing mem- bers and presidents of any federal Liberal associations which may include areas of the new provin- cial riding. Elected in addition to Mr. McAllister were executive vice- president Jean Adams of Bruce- field and vice-presidents Beecher Mepzies of Clinton, Don Oesch of Zumh, Ken Duncan of Kirkton, Mrs. Dean Gibson of Lucan and George Wall-1r of Adelaide. /16wardt.iten of Goderich will continue as secretary while Gord Strang of RR 3 Exeter will assume duties as treasurer. Past presi- dent is Dr. Morgan Smith of Hayfield. In' his acceptance speech, Mr. MCAllister said he hoped all would forget about being from Huron or Middlesex and work By Jim'!itzgerald Vanastra residents are upset with Tuckersmith Township Council again and several accused the council last Tuesday night of ""selling off their ,heritage." The dispute arose over a lot on Victoria Boulevard in Vanastra that was giyen to the Township and then the Township last March sold the lot to Vic Evans, who owns a home next door. Harvey Hammond of Vanastra was present at the meeting, along with Alton King and Robin Gates, two other Vanastra residents. The lot, which is too small for a house to be built on it, was used as a walkway by many . of the. children of Vanastra, Mr. Hammond said, to get to the park behind the houses and to catch the school bus. Mr. 'Hammond said that Mr. Evans has erected a fence and won't allow the children to cut across the lot. "I could have had 50 angry ratepayers here tonight, boys," Mr. Hammond, said: The children now have to go around the park to catch abus, and who is going to be responsible when one of them is killed?" Mr. Hammond wanted to know. ,Mr. Hammond said that council shou expropriate a piece of the lot because the deed has gone through to Mr:Evans. 14c0 10.
