Home My WebLink AboutClinton News-Record, 1963-04-18, Page 10The Clinton Marching and Concert Band made their first outside appearance an impres- sive one when they led the motorcade of Prime Minister Diefenbaker throUgh Goderich on his recent tour. Under ideal weather condi- tions, the band, the majorettes and color party performed ex- tremely well and drew the plau- dits of not only the Prime Min- ister, but the large crowd in attendance at the affair. One of the main reasons for the success of the band has been the extremely good turn- out at recent rehearsals, prov- ing once again the importance of ALL members attending practices. The next event on the agenda will be another VARIETY CON- CERT at the recreation hall at RCAF Clinton on Sunday, April 21. The event will commence at 8:00 p.m. and the entire comple- ment of band members, major- ettes and color party will be performing, along with several guest performers. It is hoped that a large num- ber of Clinton residents will be on hand to witness the show, Leaves Hospital To Cast Vote, Dies At Home HENSALL—Horace Thomson, 87, of Hensall, who insisted on leaving South Huron Hospital at Exeter to come home to vote, was found dead in his room here Tuesday. Death was attributed to a heart attack. Mrs. K. W. Webster, of Rich- mond Street, Hensall, where Mr. Thomson had lived since his retirement five years ago, said he had insisted on leaving the hospital where he had been since April 2. He came to Hensall after re- tiring as a contractor in Scar- borough. His great-grandpar- ents, David and Mary Thomson, were the first Scottish settlers in Scarborough. A collegiate was named after them about three years ago. The body was transferred Wednesday from the Bonthron funeral home, Hensall, to the Ogden funeral home, Agincourt, for service Saturday at 1 p.m. Burial will be in St. Andrew's Cemetery, Scarborough.

The older players were members of the Desperate Dads who tackled the youngsters in a laugh-pro- voking tilt at RCAF Clinton, Friday, and the game was filled with all sorts of antics, but Brian had little work and brought a chair in the second period to take things a little easier.

GENTLEMEN:' We, have audited the accounts and records of the Town- ship of Tuckersmith for the year ended December 31, 1962 and have prepared therefrom the Statements listed in the Index accompanying this report. The operations for the year resulted in a surplus of $1,624.08 compared with a deficit of $262.53 for the year ended December 31, 1961. No suitable budget was prepared for 1962. Each muni- cipality is required to prepare a budget in accordance with The Municipal Act. We would suggest that a budget be prepared under the account classifications as are shown on schedule D of this report. We did not examine a fidelity bond covering the Secre- tary-Treasurer of School Section No. 3 and presume that this Secretary-Treasurer is not bonded. On the Balance Sheet of Tuckersmith Township School Area there is shown an amount due from the Capital Funds of $20,000.00. We would suggest that this amount be writ- ten off since the Capital Funds does not have any money to pay this amount and similarly the liability of the same amount be written off on the Capital Balance Sheet. Subject to the foregoing, we report that in our opinion (1) The financial transactions which have come under our notice have been within the powers of the municipality. (2) The audit has been conducted in accordance with the instructions of the Department of Municipal affairs. (3) The financial statements present fairly the financial position of the municipality as at December 31, 1962 and the results of its operations for the year ended on that date. A. M.

Producers Plan November Vo te. Ontario ,egg 'producers will get an opportunity to vote en an egg marketing plan this fall. This announcement was Made at the annual meeting of the Ontario Ponitry Producers As- sociation which was beld in Toronto last Wednesday, Tom Rob= of'Leamington, president of the poultry pro- ducers, told delegates from all across the province that their efforts to bring `a marketing plan for eggs into effect ap- peared to be closer to realiza- tion with general acceptance of the plan by ' t h e Ontario Farm Products Marketing. Board and the approval of a vote in early November. Mr, Robson and his board have been diligently pursuing this objective since the last an- nual meeting when they were directed by the members to de- velop a plan, and as soon as possible seek producer approv- al, Several proposals have been put forth, and it now appears that the most recent of these embracing a teletype auction selling system, comparable to the one so successfully used by the hog producers board, will be the plan upon which produc- ers will vote, The president assured the delegates to the meeting that complete details of t h e plan would be drafted and available for study well before the actu- al plebiscite would be held. The vote of egg producers will likely be held in October or early November. George McCague, chairman of the Ontario Farm Products Marketing Board, told the egg producers that the introduction of a plan is not something that they can do by merely pushing a button. He suggested that once approval had been given by producers the logical move would be to obtain the services of a competent and experienced manager who would then work DANCE CLINTON LEGION HALL FRIDAY, APRIL 19 NORRIS' ORCHESTRA LUNCH COUNTER 50c PER PERSON Proceeds go toward "A Better Clinton Spring Show" on Saturday, June 1. 15-16b
