Qualifications: Applicants must detest the endless circle of BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER A summary of the controver. sial Mustard Report was prepared by Dr. Frank Mills, Huron County Medical Officer of Health, and presented to each member of county council at the regular monthly meeting Friday, October 25 in Goderich. ' "I think it is on excellent summary of the report and I urge each member of council to read it carefully so you will be fully aware of the possible im- plications involved if this report should ever be adopted by the provincial government," Clerk-treasurer John Berry told council, He also predicted it will be "difficult to get financing for capital expenditures" at ' the five county hospitals from now on. Mr. Be ry gave as an example the "long and tedious" effort by the board at Alexandra Marine and General Hospital in Goderich to obtain permission to 'build additional emergency facilities there. ' "If the report is implemen- ted," warned Mr. Berry, "we swill be looking to larger hospitals." Sympathy of the community is extended to Mrs. Jack Medd and family on their recent sad bereavement.

Guaranteed He asked county councillors to "stand up for Huron County and its hospitals". Ed Oddleifson, reeve of Bayfield, also voiced concern that if the criteria set out in the Mustard Report was adopted, there could be a "reduction of supported medical centres from five to three", "If there is any reduction in grants to any particular hospital, we should object very strenuously," said Mr. Oddleif- son. "We should be very, very militant about it," He said in his opinion, Huron had an excellent medical setup for a rural county and noted the five hoSpitals were adequate and serving a need here. The planning board was given permission to engage another planner for the year 1975. This additional personnel would assist the present staff to expedite zoning bylaws at the local level. James Mair of Morris, chair- man of the planning board, told council that the further the county goes with planning, the greater the need for secondary plans and zoning bylaws. "Some of the problems we've evening having spent ,the past week with her son and family, Mr. Carl Merner, Sandy, Julie Ann and Michael. • 1J14rs, Carl ,Merner ,and. baby Michelle Janette returned home on Sunday afternoon from Clinton Public Hospital.

Any area resident •who can meet the requirements is eligible to reach new horizons in television viewing in the Clinton-Goderich district, Bluewater Cable TV in Holmesville, now has a fully eqtSipped studio and is turning encountered might have been handled easier if we'd had more zoning bylaws in the county," said Mr, Mair. He termed it "regrettable" that the planning budget would have to be considerably in- creased to meet the salary of an additional staffer. It was estimated that an additional $18,000 would have to go into the budget to finance the extra expense, Stan Profit, deputy-reeve of Goderich, asked „why municipalities don't hire their own planning consultants if the need for secondary plans is so great. He was told it was costlier for a municipality to engage their own planning staff. It was also pointed out that it had been agreed that the county would provide the planning staff to assist the municipalities to ensure a total planning con- cept for Huron. "Possibly we need a little more overall planning," said Mr. Mair. It was noted that some of the greatest planning problems arise "where town and town- ship meet". In other business, it was lear- ned a new library van has been, ordered from Jim Hayter Chev- Olds Limited tf Goderich in the amount of $3,691.50; that the official opening of -the Huron- Perth Regional Assessment Of- fice is set for November 14 at 3:30 p.m.; and that the Association for Rural Municipalities of Ontario is keenly interested in increased membership for the coming year. its facilities over to-:the public to produce local television shows, A public meeting will. be held. at the .Holmesville studio Thur, sdoy, November 7, the purpose of which is to determine the number of people interested in the ymtore and to organize committee to coordinate the programming. Up to this time very few local prograrris have been aired on the cable station. The Lions club conducts its weekly bingo sessions from the studio and small number of church group.e have done shows on such topical issues as abortion. Bruce Davey of the Bluewater Cable TV company lauds the merits of local productions and is anxious to see the • public take advantage of the opportunity to get programs on the air that they %tvearenstt.to see and are of local in- s. "Local programming has always been a part of the initial plan of the -company," Mr. Davey said. "We want to get the people out here, show them what there is, show them the potential and- the rewards of local programming and select a committee to coordinate and be responsible for the program- ming." Naturally the turnout at the meeting next week will dictate the size of the committee and the type of projects that they will he able to undertake. The facilities have been bought and will now he turned over to the citizens. The only foreseeable obstacle is gettting the interest aroused and the program off the ground. The Bluewater Company has 'spent close to $15,000 to equip the studio for use in the hope that local residents Would recognize the need for and realize the benefits of a com- munity television effort. The studio is now equipped with two cameras with zoom lenses, proper lighting for production, a video tape Machine which will afford the convenience of production at any hour and a console-. The console is able to monitor three cameras and features a swit- cher-fader . which. enables the operator to switch to another camera shot or fade ..into. 'another angle and such special effects as a split screen and cor. ner insertions, Unfortunately programming will be confined to the studio area hut there will be no restrictions or censorship placed op the type of programs aired, The public will simply be free to program its own ideas, "We don't want the people tp be perfect or attempt to com- pete with the CEO," Mr. Davey said. "People ruin programs when they try for perfection. These will be amateur produc- tions and people will have to learn to be themselves." Mr, Davey has long been in- volved with the productions of local programs with the cable company in Strathroy and Kin- cardine and is willing to assist the committee with any help its members may need. He has en- joyed being involved with the cable productions and intends to do some programming with the committee, He also stressed the fact that operation of the equipment is extremely simple and will not be a drawback in the production process, Mr. Davey cited the up- coming municipal election as a major reason for support of,a local public station, Such productions as a candidate's forum have proved to he suc- cessful in other areas and serve as a valuable service to the community. "We hope to ' have the program operative by election time so that the elections could be covered," he said. "This type of topical show is very suc- cessful in small towns." The Bluewater Cable TV company will report periodically to the Canadian Radio and Television Com- mission (CRTC) on the progress of local programming so the commission can en- courage and draw up guidelines for other cable companies. But the success of the ven- ture depends upon the input of the community. The program- ming will reflect the flavor of the community and give people the opportunity to voice their opinions and provide some wholesome entertainment. Who knows? There just may be a few budding television stars who have been waiting for a break like this! Councillors warned of report
