Threats worry
school board
SHIRLEY J. KELLER
Members of the Huron
County Board • of Education
expressed deep concern for the
recent bomb threats in Clinton
schools. Meeting Monday
evening, September 21 in
Clinton, the board agreed to
notify

#0ii Town
of theneOriCern. in the„,,*„
and to offer any assistance it
might be able to render in
solving the problems.
It was learned that a bomb
actually was discovered in
Central Huron Secondary School
Sunday morning, September 13,
As well, telephone calls warning
of bombs ready to explode were
received at Clinton Public
School as well as the Separate
School in Clinton.
Gordon Moir, Wingham,
urged the board to "press for the
maximum penalty" if and when
the culprit or culprits are
apprehended.
"This is a three and a half
million dollar building," stated
vice-chairinan Robert Elliott. "It
seems to be up to anyone who
wants to take a crack at it,"
John Cochrane, director of
education, stated that he and
Bob Homuth, the principal at
Central Huron Secondary
School, were "disappointed" in
news coverage of the event
which seemed more interested in
giving a lesson on constructing a
better bomb than in presenting
facts.
The board members made it
clear that they were not
criticizing anyone for the mishap
but rather expressing a desire to
protect the taxpayers'
investment by whatever means
was deemed necessary.

*Mr. John. 'Freemen; of ,
formerly of Hullett Township,

Continued from rage 1,
Resources commission decided
to Impose it. The owxtc already
knew about the situation, he
said, but every time they moved
for actien theY were stalled by
town officials who claimed the
town just couldn't afford proper
sewage treat** facilities,
The' speaker wondered how
Intich it would cost and felt it
certainly wouldn't exceed
$40,000 for the new treatment
facilities required, picked the
figure, he said, because he had
read that $120,000 had been
wagered at Clinton Raceway
during the month of July alone.
Mr. Andrews claimed that
North Americans are wasting
their natural resources at a
tremendous rate and attacked
the attitudes that everyOne had
to own a big new car with the
latest gadgets, and all sorts of
unnecessary extras such as
snowmobiles and mini-bikes.
He warned that every small
frill on a car used up some of the
worlds limited natural resources.
lie said the idea that everything
must grOw, that the gross
national product must always be
larger than last year was a
dangerous trend. If North
America continued to grow at its
present rate, he said, figures
showed that in 10 years it would
require 100 per cent of all the
world's natural resources to keep
the economy of the continent
going. North America, he
pointed out, has only six per
cent of the world's population.
Mr. Andrews stressed the
importance of birth control
programs and said that if world
birth rate continued at its
present level the 'world would be
like an overcrowded aquarium.
If fish in such an aquarium were
given enough food to keep
themselves alive, he said, they
fouled the water with waste
products and died of poisoning.
At the moment, he said,
individual and selfish purposes
seem to be governing society
with everyone thinking of
himself instead of the good of
society. But he warned the
graduates not to try to just skip
out on all responsibility by
turning to drugs or hippie
movements such as the Rochdale
College experiment in Toronto.
He said he felt society could not
afford to support such groups
much longer.

He warned the students that
they were going to have to make
a decision within the next 20
years, He said he hoped they
Made the right one but would
bet that they didn't.
"I've Painted a pretty dismal
pictnre," he Said, addressing tin
graduates, "Mir challenge tc
repaint that Picture?", He said he
could see one ray of hope, the
fact that of all animals, huinank
were the One species that had
