CLINTON COMMUNITY CREDIT UNiON LIMITED society needs funds Directors of th'e Huron Central Agricrlitural Society are asked to be present Tuesday for a meeting at, which the 1969 prize list will be reviewed. At its meeting Last week, ;the society >directorsannounced that they will enter a tug -of -War team in the winter carnival _competition next week, Poor weather on fair day last year reduced gate receipts and resulted in cancellation of the. evening horse show, putting the society in the red and making it difficult to begin preparing for this year's fair. Sports by RC Minor hockey While the Fish and Game Bantams scored victories over Seaforth and Goderich, the Pee Wees dropped their two games with the same two towns. The PeeWees were downed 6-2 in Clinton last Monday evening. Steve Cook and Neil Colquhoun scored for the Clinton team. Brian Langille scored the hat trick in the 7-3 win over the Seaforth Bantams. Clinton scorers were Robbie Stirling, Barry Edgar (2) and Paul Kay. In Goderich doubleheader the Kinsmen PeeWees lost 6-0, the Bantams, without several players, rolled to an easy 6-1 victory on goals by Barry Edgar (2), Brian Kennedy (2), Bill Crawford and Danny Colquhoun. Mitchell's strong Midget team won over Clinton last Thursday in Clinton by a 7-3 score. Clinton's captain Rick Paulin scored two goals and Glen Irwin scored the other.

Huron to have 15 assessors The county assessment department will hire four more assessors in the spring to bring its full-time staff to 15 assessors and three clerical workers, according to E. F. Hall, assessment commissioner. There are now 11 assessors on the county staff, Mr. Hall told County Council last month two supervisors, two grade four assessors, two on grade three and five at grade two, One more grade two or grade.. three assessor and two trainees will be sought later this year, he said. The department has spent $4,000 on equipment, about one-quarter of the money allocated for furnishing its offices in the new administration building in Goderich. Actual cost of the new building was reported to be $134,378 of which the county has already paid $60,000. Commissioner Hall praised the council for the fine facilities provided and said the new building is as adequate as any in the province, Snow removal expense Exceeds county budget By Shirley .J. ;Keller The road committee of Huron County Council disclosed last month that it managed to stay within its estimated budget for 1968, even though maintenance costs were unusually high. The estimate for winter road care for 1968 was $115,000, Actual costs v. !'e about $28,000 above that figure. County engineer James Britnell .blamed severe snow storms in the latter part of December for much of the increase. The county spent $12,934,30 on snow fence; $71,889,90 for salting and sanding, and $58,569.75 for snow clearing last year, Mr. Britnell told Council he was proud of the county snow crew which often worked long hours without complaint during storms. He compared the cost in the county of aboutper y $340. p r two-lane mile for winter road maintenance to the Department of Highways' budget of about $2,800 per two-lane mile. He said while many residents in the county expected the same service on county roads as on provincial highways it is impossible to provide with one-third the snow crew, one-half the equipment and about one-seventh of the budget for provincial highway snow clearing. A very wet summer raised the cost of weed and brush cutting- and spraying from the estimated cost of $35,000 to an actual expenditure of $52,501.35. Total road construction cost to the county during 1968 was $467,471.25 and total bridge construction amounted to $135,233.32, both figures well within the estimated budgets. PLANNING TO DECORATE ?

S. Hetherington praised the county officials for their efforts to improve .the county road system and mentioned in particular the number of new modern bridges which replaced "the old. iron cages that used to let the horses through") Total road budget presented for subsidy was. $1,378,231.44, the committee reported. Warden James Hayter, 1968 road chairman, received Council's approval for an annual boost of $1,500 in Mr, Britnell's salary, now $19,000, Mr. Hayter said, "We're just keeping Jim (Britnell) in line with other engineers with his experience and qualifications." Warn schools on spending TORONTO Education Minister William Davis said last Saturday trustees running Ontario's new 127 county -size school districts are going to be faced with a temptation for big -money spending. Mr. Davis told the annual luncheon of the Ontario School Trustees' Council that the province's enlarged school districts will tempt trustees to "let loose the reins to see who will get to the most grandiose objective first." He warned that a school system cannot earn a good reputation "by simply spending more money than any other" and that extremely expensive schools are not necessary, but well-controlled budgets are. About 1,330 small school boards were replaced January 1 with 127 public and separate school districts.
