Council In Action Monday's town council meet- ing was sandwiched between two meetings as "committee of the whole". PASSED Huron County Soil and Crop Improvement Association will receive a grant for $25 for the seed fair in Exeter. District Salvation Army was given a grant of $25. Council okayed a request by Clinton Public Hospital for dreation signs on highways 4 and 8. Mayor W. J. Miller was nam- ed to represent Clinton at the EMO meeting in Listowel Feb- ruary 18. The meeting will discuss emergency measure plans for Huron, Perth and Bruce counties, identified as "random bomb areas". Councillor D. E. Symons was narked to represent the mayor on the hospital bbard. DISCUSSED No action was taken on a request from the police de- partment for a $300 per man raise and new uniforms. A $3,700 tender for the posi- tion of streets foreman for 1962 by John McFarlane was mentioned by deputy -reeve Agnew. "This has been dealt with on approval of council. He (McFarlane) has been notified of the results." Deputy -Reeve Agnew did not elaborate fur- ther. (IVIcFarlane's tender in- cluded $200 for bookkeeping.) The mayor asked the police committee to consider getting prices on a new six -cylinder cruiser. "The present car has 67,000 miles on it," he said. A means of providing better communication between resi- dents and the police was also discussed. A two-way radio with clerk -treasurer J. Liver- more forwarding calls to the cruiser and a Bell telephone mobile phone was thought to have "good merit" but persons calling the cruiser would have to pay the 35c toll charge. Council decided to make some more enquiries. Councillor George Wench gave a detailed report of the industrial development commit- tee. He said there was little chance of the army going into the vacant. Clinton Hosiery factory. He said he received a favorable reply from Canada Packers representative D. M. Maltby, Harraston, who stat- ed he would meet Councillor Wonch shortly. Wonch also warned council, "We're miss- ing the boat by pulling out of the Mid -Western Ontario De- velopment Association." Town council also discussed' Mayor Miller's report of the Maitland Conservation Author- ity. The report shows 900 loc- al properties draining into the watershed. The mayor said that during the survey for the Jenkins municipal drain it was found that only 50 properties on the north side of the town drained toward the Maitland river. The department of plan- ning and development has agreed to make a full survey of the district. SAVE! SAVE! SAE! ON YOUR DRY .

The group hopes to co-ordinate sports so all .youngsters and adults can participate. A request for an abrogation by-law on relief from the town of Penetanguishene was tabled to the relief committee.

CDCI NEWS Assembly Sees Hemingway Film CDCI - Last week's' assem- bly program was unusual be.- cause e=cause 'it featured the full-length motion picture, "The Old Man and 'the Sea". Although the whole school watched, the show was of special interest to the Grade 13 students, who have just read the Ernest Heming- way novel as part of their Eng- lish course. In introducing the film, Mrs. J. E. Robinson said that the theme. of the story lay in the Old Man's statement, "A mann can be destroyed but not de- fe'ated." The presentation of the novel was accurate and excellent, aided by vivid colour lihotography on location in the Caribbean. Spencer Tracy, playing the Old Man, gave a masterful per- formance, making Heminga s hero quite' memorable. This movie was a valuable study aid, not only for the present Grade 13 pupils but also for those who may be reading the novel in future years.
