CORP TI -I RRSDA ; OCeee)BBR' 10, 1.051-4 For Recreation (Second! of ,1, Series) 1 As we see it, the two existing. eom Tdttees now set up, one to look after the park, and the other one to 1oek after .the swimming pool in the park, could at some future date be amalgamated into one. We also foresee a time when that one committee would have in hand the organizing and planning of many more activities as part of .community life in Clinton, CDCI Loses To Wingham 24-0 Score :Making their first loss of the season a real one, Clinton Redmen went down to a 24-0 defeat on. Tuesday 'afternoon at the hands of the Wingham High. School foot- ball team on the northern town's field. Quite a -few injuries were suffered en the field, which was found to be hard and rocky. Mc- Donnell, Clifford, Batkin, Harris and Cunningham, all received in- juries, as well as a number of (boys on the host team. , During the first half. Clinton had only one scoring opportunity when they had a first down on the--Wingham ten -yard line but couldn't make the necessary gains and lost the ball to Wingham. In the third quarter a touch- down by Jardin on the Wingh'aan team resulted from a fumble in the Clinton end zone. In the four- th quarter, Wingham scored three touchdowns, by Hodgkinson, Hem- ingway and Coultis. The next game is scheduled for Goderich next Tuesday, but a holi- day, owing to the Queen's visit is anticipated, and it will probably be held Wednesday or Thursday. 4 ♦_« Of course, the busy men who make up such a committee have only what time to spend at it that they can steal from their everyday labours. It would: be practically a necessity then to hire someone, on a full time or part-time basis, to make recreation in Clinton his particular job. Such a man would be called a Rerxeational Director,. But who would pay him? Where would the money creme from:? Well, under the Municipal Re- creation Committee system, as set t up under the Community Centres Act, grants would be available to apply pn his salary. Similar grants would be available for anyone hir- ed as teacher, leader or instructor, working tinder A nder the et These governmentgrants amount to one-third of salary paid, up to a maximum annual granf of $1,800. With thismonil available from y the provincial government, the problem of finding enough money to carry on the work of the Re- creation Committee is Iessened to a great degree. (To Be Continued) 0 Local Farmer Gets 3 Months For CTA Offence :Gordon Turner, Brucefield, is spending three months in the coun- ty jail following sentence in mag- istrate's court last Thursday in Goderich, when he pleaded guilty to a charge of keeping intoxic- atinig beverages for sale, contrary to the Canada Temperance Act.
