of through good farms, and then
to follow the fence lines, rather
than crossing fields.

meeting to study this situation.
Also another meeting will be ar-
ranged soon, to discuss accepta-
bility of compensation offered far-
mers along the route for trees

Four Bad Accidents
Over Last Weekend
(Continued from page one)
' None Hurt
At about ten o'clock on Friday
night, May 8, a car driven by
16 year old Joseph Powell, RR 2,
Clinton, was in collision with a
hydro pole in front of the Clinton
Hosiery Mill.
Apparently the young driver was
looking for another car, and was
not paying attention, The impact
splintered the pole, which was re-
placed onMonday. No one was
hurt,
Car Cline Pole
Damage estimated at $600 re-
sulted from a collision on Satur-
day evening between cars driven
by Robert E. Secord, Hanover and
Donald J. McPhail, Wingham, The
incident occurred about three mil-
es south of Clinton on Highway 4.
The McPhail car was travelling
south, when it struck the back of
the Secord car, and went on thr-
ough the ditch, knocking a piece
out of a telephone pole, levelling
three or four fence posts, and for
about 40 rods into the field before
coming to a halt.
No one was injured, Telephone
service was not interrupted, At
that point there are 26 lines st-
rung on the poles, and this was
sufficient to keep the top' part
of the pole erect. Damage was
repaired temporarily, and on Mon-
day morning workmen with the
Tuckersmith Township Telephone
System installed a new pole.
