The people at the park were delighted, but not nearly as, delighted as Bill's wife was to get rid of them. With the playoffs, on in local baseball and softball it's sometimes hard to keep up with the action, The Peewees last week won the WOAA championship and now advance to OBA play. The Colts are algo in OBA play and the bantams- and juvenile girls are also still in action.

Think of our ego.-- McKillop schools decision Sept. 8 Huron County Board of Education decided Monday evening in Clinton to make its decision regarding the McKillop schools at the next regular meeting, Tuesday, September 8. Any McKillop ratepayers who wish to present their case to the school board at that meeting may do so, the board members also decided, At least two groups in McKillop, those interested in an addition to the Seaforth Public School and those opposed to it, will be notified of the upcoming meeting. A notice will also be published in the Seaforth newspaper announcing the September meeting date. The board has met with McKillop residents on two other occasions, once to present a board proposal for closing the one-room schools in the towrisip, and once to hear the opinions of two delegations with differing viewpoints on —the solution to the present McKillop school system. John D. Cochrane, director of education for Huron County, pointed out that it is abundantly clear that the majority of ratepayers in McKillop are in favor of closing down the one-room schools. The board agreed it was up to the school board to investigate the whole situation and decide on the best possible solution. At Monday evening's meeting, the board looked at the possible alternatives for McKillop students, but no decision will be made until the September meeting. Board members also agreed that only necessary maintenance be 'carried out in the McKillop schools until the issue is settled: Some board members felt that any contracts that may ,be awarded for painting the interior Of McKillop schools, should be held Sn abeyance until a final decision.about the fate of the schools iS reached, Weather 1070 1960 HI LO Hl LO Auguft H 81 57 72 46 12 82 58 78 43 13 83 67" 84 54 14 85 62 •87. 60 15 87 62 88 67` 16 81 68" 82 • 66 17 74 63 88 6/ !lain Rain .36" * * * The post office was closed again on Tuesday, this time because the officials sent workers home because there was too little work to do. * * * An attempt is being made to form a junior 13 hockey team in Clinton this winter, A meeting of all those interested will be held August 27 at' the arena.

Cochrane wondered what the hoard would do if other Clintonians continued to use the area as a dump. He said that on two occasions, persons had beens observed dumping refuse into the site. Suggestion was made that signs be erected to advise that no dumping was permitted in the area. Persons ignoring the warning would be prosecuted, some board members thought. There was no formal decision on the matter but some members of the board felt that when the clean-up was completed, the dumping would automatically discontinue.
