S. Milburn and William Greenwood, of. the On- tario Municipal Board, held a hearing in connection with the restricted area by-law of the township of Bosanquet: • Considerable opposition was registered against the clause which read that no building of any kind, no trench or ditch Other than a munleipal drain, no groyne or fence and no posts or piles shall be erected or con- structed. or placed or used or permitted, to stand on that part of the land which is beach, The chief objection to the above clause came from the cottage minion along the beach at Ipperwash although the shore line from! Ipperteash to Grand' Bend -was affected. The cottage owners plaiteed the right to file.d tiff their property as protectiOn for thole children from cars !het drive on the bead, particularly ,on luilidaye and weekends and also for the sake of privacy.

Public school inspector J. 0,1 I Goman, chairman of the com- mittee, said that "opinion was unanimously in favor ef such a project" at Tuesday night's meeting. A surprising number of the representatives were strongly in favor of an indoor pool which could be used throughout the vitt. ter," he said. Mr, 'Gornan suggested the pro- ject at a general meeting of the , Legion Tuesday night and it was endorsed enthusiastically. The branch went on record. aa supporting the project and vo- lunteered to spearhead the cam- paign if other organizations would assist. Result of the move was the calling of Tuesday night's meet- ing which was attended by 25 men, including Mayor Ptoley and the presidents of the three men's service organizations. The committee will include three representatives from each of four groups. Coen,cillors Ralph Bailey, Ross Taylor and Glen Fisher will represent the town; President Gard Bayn.ham. Bud •Preszcator and George Rether have been appointed by the Kinsmen. The Legion and Lions representatives' will be . named later.

The club's sum- mer playground. program in- cludes swimming instruction in a roped off area in the Ausable river at Riverview Park. While the water is tested constantly and has seldom been found un- sanitary, many parents view fear disease could be spread by the river, Particularly in sum- mer months when the flow is slow. Some locations which have been discussed include the com- munity p a r k, public school grounds and Riverview Park. A grant of $5,000 is available from the provincial government toward the cost of a pool, Kirkton Farmer Loses Chickens Police are investigating theft of 160 chickens, valued at $385, from the farm of Wilfeed Paton, two miles north of Kirkton, over, the weekend.

Counsel Jim Donnelly, Gode- rich, who defended Cronyn, sug- gested the money might not have been counted correctly or that members of the family might have had 'access to it but Magistrate Dudley Holmes:was convinced that the family's strict. control over its finances could not have permitted either to happen.
