CLINT-0.N NEWS-RECORD PAGE TEN Colts Take Over Third Place Defeat Mitchell Twice Colts 10, Mitchell 7 Clinton Colts made it two in a row Over the Mitchell Legion- aires on Saturday evening when they roared from behind in the third period to take a 30-7 decis- ion. It was a very important Vict- ory for the Colts as these two teams have been fighting it out for a playoff position and with this win plus the 'victory on Thursday the Colts now have a four point edge and their playoff hopes are much brighter, Several Injuries The only thing to mar the game was the injuries received by three players. AI May of the Colts suffered a cracked rib when he collided with Bill Hanly in an attempt to check an incoming forward. Simultaneously Bill Gatenby, star right wingman for the Legionaires crashed into the end boards and was knocked out. He had to be carried from the ice and was some time before he regained his senses. Bill was Put under observation at Strat- ford General Hospital for the night but suffered no ill effects. Mid-way through the third period Jim Loader Mitchell's playing coach was checked heav- ily along the boards and injured his back forcing him to retire. The game was very fast through- out. Mitchell had a definite edge for the first two periods and looked as if they would be able to coast to an easy win. In the final period the Colts stormed to the attack and within eight min- utes had tied the score. Bill Hardy scored what proved to be the winning goal at the 9.25 point and Counter and Hardy added two more before the period end- ed to put the game in the bag. One highlight Of the game was the play of Billy Hardy. He scar- ed three goals and assisted in one more to lead the Colts in this department. Bill Counter was moved to centre between Dol- mage and Hardy after May was injured and gave them an extra spark and they scored four goals in the third period.

The game was very cleanly play- ed with only four minor penalties being handed out, two to each team. Both teams skated very fast and the rival goal tenders were called upon to make some brilliant saves, Nediger in the Clinton cage was exceptionally effective in the early stages of the game as he kicked out hard shots from Loader, Weber and Gatenby when they were right in on top of him. MeEwan led the Colt attack picking up fief? points with four goals and an assist. Loader was the most effective Mitchell player even though he was held off the score sheet. Bartliff on the Colts defence played his most effective game of the season. He stopped many Mitchell rushes and was throwing body checks that slowed down in- coming forwards considerably, He also counted one goal with a neat twenty-five foot shot that beat Harfeld completely, An unfortunate accident happen- ed in the third period when Mc- Ewan and Harfeld collided after McEwan had Viored the tie break- ing goal. As Harfeld attempted to save he slid out and "Cooney" sailed over the prostrate Mitchell goal tender's head, Harfeld was knocked insensible and had to be assisted from the ice. Chessel re- placed the injured player and finished the game, Clinton Colts: goal, Nediger; de- fence, Counter, Schoenhals; centre, McEwan; wings, Edgar, M. Col- quhoun; subs, Bartliff, K.

Both the Junior and senior boy's teams won by large margins while the girls took a close 27-17 victory, The Junior boys' game was a free-searing match with the Qin- ton team taking a 55-32 decielon. Don Ladd's 11 points led the Clinton attack wnile Don Horton with 7 was the top man for Sea- forth. In the Senior boys' game Clin- ton took the lead from the open- ing whistle and won easily 41-26. Three From Goderieh CDCI Red Devils continued their winning ways in Goderich as all three teams took decision over their respective opponents. The Junior boys' had no diffi- culty in winning 39-16.

At times he, Mr. Trewartha, had had occation to be witness in court at Goderich, He had heard there: "You have -the best police force in Clinton that you've ever had. The Chief rarely loses a case, and he doesn't come up here on a wild goose chase. Yoh have a good town and this is largely due to the work of the police chief," Mr. Trewartha suggested a committee of not more than three for a police commission, Coun. Agnew suggested that the Chief be asked to reconsider his decision. Coun. Pegg stated, "Chief Ferrand has had 25 years of police experience gained in the Old Coun- try, and you can't buy that kind of experience." Reeve Nediger sug- gested setting up a police commiss- ion of three, and this might per- suade the Chief to reconsider. The matter was left over until the foll- owing day. At the special meeting called for Tuesday afternoon, Coun. Pegg asked the Chief if setting up the three man committee would not influence him. Chief Ferrand said no, but that the commission would be an improvement on the set-up. The Chief expressed his intent to continue with his work in Boy Scouts and with the St. John's Ambulance Corps, and offered to be of any assistance when needed. The motion that Council accept with regret the resignation of the Chief was carried. 1952 Police Department Ferrand: Salary, take home pay, $2,600.55; contributed to pension, $134.72; extra days worked (Sun- days), $488; holiday pay for time worked in 1951, $47.91; Court of Revision attendance, $5; car al- lowance, 10,330 miles, $839.78; Thompson: Salary, $1,787.49; ex- tra days worked (Sundays), $323.- 25; Foote: time for holidays and extra duty, $212.50; Telephone, $55.47; oil for heat- ing, $126.53; office supplies, $44.11; batteries, $5.80; uniforms, $125.76; car repairs, $62.25; lumber and locks, $1971; books, $6; doctor, $2; pension (town contribution) $134.72; Budget for Dept. • $7,050.00 Police Expenses $7,021.55 Surplus $ 28.45 There also was spent $168 for car insurance.

In August, 1952, Mr. Gibbings visited the museum at Goderich, and noting no .old fire equipment there, mentioned the pumper to the curator, and made arrange- ments to have it entered in the Museum on loan. The plan was that at any time that Clinton should establish a museum it should have the old pumper, and if Clinton's Fire Department should want it for special occas- ions, the pumper would be avail- able. Mr. Gibbings mentioned his plan late in October to Alex Cedmore (who was fire chief at the time the machine was loaned to the de- partment), and for the first time asked that the machine be re- turned. At the November council meet- ing the suggestion was made that Clinton place their• old fire pump- er in the museum at Goderich. Mr. Gibbings heard the news re- leases concerning it and spoke to Councillor Draper (who was Sec- retary of the Clinton Fire Depart- ment at the time the pumper was taken from Mr. Gibbings" prop- erty) who suggested that he would attend the next meeting of the fire department and arrange for the release of the pumper to Mr. Gibbings. However, Mr, Draper did not attend the meeting as proposed. The question of ownership came up at the December council meet- ing and was put in the hands of , the town solicitor for investiga- tion. On the invitation of the then mayor, G. W. Nett, Mr. Gibbings attended the January 5 council meeting when discussion took place in committee concerning the pumper. At that time council in- structed Coun. Draper to instruct the fire department to release the SKATES SHARPENED WE HAVE FINEST EQUIPMENT LENGTHWISE and HOLLOW GROUND FOR BEST RESULTS Nelson's MACHINE SHOP Clinton pumper to Mr. Gibbings. The p,04., morning the Clerk received word from Mayor W. J. Miller not to release it. At the special meeting held on., January 26, the motion, moved by Come Schoenhals, seconded by Coun. Crick was passed (though not unanimously) "that the Coen. .eil turn over to. Bert Gibbings one , old hand fire pumper in hands of the fire department to be placed. In the museum on display, as is." The following day, a special meeting of Council voted to scind the releasing motion.

Coun. Stanley: What difference would $100 donation make anyway upon the income taxes of anyone who contributed? Mayor Miller: Is this meeting willing to turn this over to the recreation committee for consid- eration? I don't believe we are/ going to get anywhere to-night. Lion Dr. Aldis: The whole Lions Club and all of the community feel that it would be good to have the thing settled as soon as pos- sible. He asked if a committee of the council could meet with the Club at an early date. Lion F. Fingland: Mentioned work done by members of Lions Club in raising over $22,000 of the required $30,000 by canvassing, etc., "All we request is that the town accept the arena and put us in a position to get $5,000, which will be hard to get any other way. This is a small request. At the same time we would clear up this income tax business, in which we have pledged our word." Crich: Suggested that the Gen- eral Government Committee con- fer with the Lions ,and thrash the thing out. (Members of this com- mittee: Stanley, Pegg, Agnew), Agnew: Is this a free hand? Is Council bound by the decision of the General Government Commit- tee? Mayor .Miller: No. Agnew: Then what is to be gained? Miller: More particulars. Agnew; I think we have all the particulars here to-night. Why not settle it now? Clerk Holland: We have no as- surance that we will get the $5,000. The Lions Club has, but the Council hasn't and I don't believe Council is in a position to assume a debt of $5,739. Moved by Pegg, seconded by Stanley, that Council meet with Lions delegates on Tuesday afternoon at one o'clock. By the time of the special meet- ing Tuesday afternoon Clerk Hol- land had received assurance that the $5,000 would be .forthcoming. F. Fingland explained that the town must own the property for 20 years in order to be eligible for the grant. The Arena could be ad- ministered by a committee com- posed of five noes and two coup- ell members. If, however, after a period of time, it could be proven that the situation warranted it, permission from the Department could be requested, and the arena returned to the ownership of the Clinton Lions. Coun. Agnew was personally not in favour of Council having any- thing to do with it. "Council has too many irons in the fire al- ready," However, it looked like en attempt to get the Lions out of financial difficulty, Mr. Agnew said, and he felt perhaps all of the Lions were not in agreement on the question. "Last night you were high-pressured into voting 05,000; now you hesitate to accept $43,- 000," Mr. Agnew remarked. Coun. Pegg felt it was too soon to make a decision on a matter which concerned 20 years. "We should know what the body of the Lions feels about this subject," Conn. Draper, speaking as a Lion, was net in favour of taking over the arena if the Lions should lose control of it. However, he felt that since other towns were getting the grant, Clinton should have it, too. Coun. Knights (speaking as a Lion) said he was at the Lions meeting when the tommittee was appointed to approath Council, Ile felt opinion there was divided bid could not say whether the major,. ity, were, for or against the project. A motion that Council will Con.
