Legion to Treat Auxiliary
To Appreciation Banquet
:Clinton Legion Bx^anch, at .its
regular meeting Monday night
approved the suggested slate 9f
committees for 1962.
The members also decided' to
put on a banquet .for the Lad-
ies Auxiliary on Saturday,
February 10. The Legionaires
will cook and serve the dinner.
This is in appreciation of the
work done by the ladies and
their generous financial assist-
ance to the branch last year.
Treasurer Robert Hicks is ch-
airman of the affair.
The branch donated $10 to
March of Dimes funds cam-
paign, sponsored locally by 'the
Kinette Club. The branch join-
ed the Clinton Unit of the Hu-
ron County Film Council and
paid fees to all Canadian Auth-
ors and Publishers Association
of 'Canada.
It was decided to discontinue
the $5 attendance draw prize
which has been in effect for
two years. If a member was
present at a general meeting
and his name drawn he would
get the prize. If the member
was not present $5 was added
each month. It was felt the
prize was not bringing enough
members out. Only 36 were
present at this meeting. Don
Symons won the $20 prize Mon-
day, which has been building
up for four meetings.
Jim Graham sponsored a mo-
tion requesting a physical fit-
ness program. at the hall; for
Legion members. Mr. Graham
suggested weight - lifting and
badminton. He offered his per-
sonal weight -lifting equipment
to the branch. A net and prop-
er lines on the floor would fit
the memorial hall for badmin-
ton. Friday was suggested as
physical fitess night.
After much discussion Presi-
dent J. Douglas Thorndike ap-
pointed' a committee to .plan
further on this suggestion.

ed past president James Gra-

Spring Fair Is
Almost in Black
(Continued from page one)
support from the business com-
munity in Clinton. Reeve Har-
vey Coleman, Stanley Township
said he believed the Clinton
Spring Show was the best fair
anywhere around.
Elgin Thompson, reeve of
Tuckersmith, attending his first
meeting of the society stated
that the Fair was certainly
good, and that the horses ex-
hibit was exceptional. Seaforth
doesn't have any better fair
than Clinton, although they
have more people. (This, point-
ed out Mr. Watkins, is because
of 'the regional breed shows
which go to the Seaforth Fall
Flair.)
Melvin Crich, reeve of Clin-
ton stated that he knew of no
fair in Huron County that sh-
ows better stock than Clinton.
Some suggestions were made:
for an assistant for Mr. Mc-
Murray; more •attention to cat-
tle shown; more people to work
on fair day; closing all gates
but one, to gain more control
over the gate receipts; more
"entertainment" to attract
more people.
I hereby proclaim

elled to Listowel for a schedul-
ed .match shoot and were out -

Jack Marriott, Tom Allen and
Bill Johnston.
A social evening followed and
the. close of the event. Much
talk of 'hunting, handguns, rif-
les and tips on target shooting
are discussed at 'competitions
which gives the shooter and the
public a better and more inter-
esting outlook on this fine sp-
ort.
Though the co-operation of
these clubs and the Ontario
Revolver Association, the st-
andards of the use of hand-
guns has been raised remark-
ably and the members of such
clubs are looked upon as law-
abiding citizens whose use of
the handgun is for the sake of
a good competitive sport and
not as someone wno has no
respect for the law.
On January 18 the members
of the Clinton Pistol Club were
hosts 'to Hanover gun club in
the trophy and range room in
Ellwood Epps Sport Shop. Four,
of the Hanover members' ar-
rived late as a result of an ac-
cident and were a little shaky

of their defeat.

five top Clinton - shots' were El-
lwood Epps 274, Jim McEwing

(Continued From Page One)
brought up at the last board
meeting with no decision taken
but that it will be brought up
again. "We can dictate the pol-
icy at the hospital but we have
no jurisdiction over the town,"
he continued.
"The old people's home buys
both inspected and uninspected
meat," Harvey Johnston, Hur-
onview supervisor said. "We
buy from packing plants and
from local markets." He did
say that the Huronview board
has not met since this contro-
versy came up.
Butcher Was Surprised
"I was quite surprised when
I came here to 'find all meat
was not inspected," said Peter
Damsma of Peter's Modern
Meat Market. "In Holland .all
meat isinspected. All of my
smoked and cured meat, cook-
ed meat and pork• is bought
from government inspected pl-
ants. I kill my own cattle
which I buy from well known
local beef drovers in an inspec-
ted slaughterhouse."
"If we butchers don't go a-
head and form some co-opera-
tive inspected abattoir now the
government • might step in from
coast to coast," he said. "I
have no Objections to inspection
because in Holland we ,are used
to it." He said he had received
a lot of inquiries but no com-
plainits from his customers.
Gorden Cudnnore, of Clinton
Locker Service, said 'all his
meat was inspected meat and
he had shown the stamp on the
beef to two or three of his
customers.
