Turn down
resolution
Usborne township's resolution
didn't get very far at the good
roads convention last week.
The motion was rejected at
the committee stage and had
little chance of passing on the
floor. However, the support
was more than token when it
was presented to the conven-
tion.
Road Sup't William Routly
indicates it won't be forgotten.
"There's still a chance we
can get it through in another
year," he stated this week.
The resolution urged the
dep't of highways to pay grants
on the basis of higher than the
lowest bids if the municipality
can show good cause why the
lowest bid should not be ac-
cepted.
At the present time, the dep't
will pay grants on the basis
of the lowest tender only.
Mr. Routly said he appeared
before the committee to speak
in favor of the resolution and
was given a "good hearing",
However, the officials felt that
the relaxation of the regula-
tions might allow the awarding
of 'contracts to get out of hand.
In addition, a group (f road
builders condemned the move,
"I believe we've started
something, just the same," said
Mr, Routly. "A lot of dele-
gates Were in sympathy with
our position and it may be
possible to get approval at
county level another year. It
usually takes a while for these
resolutions to get some place,"
Usborne's position is that the
lowest bid is not always the
best hid and that, if the muni-
cipality can show good reason
to accept a higher tender, the
department should provide
grants on the basis of the
higher cost,

In spite of bad weather, over

insurance Company, held in
Zurich,
Albert Keys, president for
the past year reported that
the company's surplus had
climbed to a point where it was
again above the Department of
Insurance minimum require-
ments. He intimated that if the
next few years produced as
good a record as 1961 had, the
policy holders could hope to
receive rate benefits in the fu-
ture,
In its eighty-eighth year, the
company continues to grow in
risk insured and number of
policy holders. Losses during
1961 amounted tq approx. $58,-
000. Premium income is now
in excess of $100,000.
The surplus of the company
is higher today than ever be-
fore in the company's history,
but it has to protect a risk of
over $35 million and 3000 pol-
icyholders, or almost double
the risk of 10 years ago.
Otto Willert, Harvey Taylor,
and Jack Scotchmer were all
returned to office for three-

on fire services
Grand Bend council decided
Monday to send invitations to
the townships of Stephen, Hay
and Bosanquet to attend a
meeting Wednesday night to
discuss fire protection.
The notices were extended
verbally by Clerk Murray A.
Des Jardins and a registered
letter was also sent to each
of the municipalities.
At a previous council meet-
ing, considerable discussion
was held regarding the pay-
ment of retainer fees by the
townships for the services of
the Grand Bend fire depart-
m ent.
Reeve Bill Sturdevant would
not comment as to the amount
of fees the summer resort
would request. "We have our
ideas though," he added when
contacted by The T-A follow-
ing the meeting.

Nurse insured
in detour crash
A nurse at South Huron Hos-
pital was injured Friday after-
noon when the brake pedal in
her car seized and she struck
a power shovel.
Miss Myrtle Ninham, Ex-
eter, received cuts and abra-
sions about her head and knee
as a result of the crash. Her
car suffered $250 damage, ac-
cording to PC D. M. Westover.
She was driving south behind
another vehicle, approaching
the detour in No. 4 about 1.3
miles south of the airport
road, When she could not ap-
ply her brakes, she tried to
overtake the front vehicle only
to be confronted by a north-
bound car in the detour. She
swung to the east and hit the
shovel which was parked near
the excavation.
No accidents yet
Exeter town police have yet
to investigate a reportable ac-
cident during 1962, it was re-

A number of minor crashes

which is the minimum for a

The action stemmed from a persons entering pool rooms in
Hensall to comply with provinc-
ial statutes,
Ernie Davis reported he had
received several complaints
about teenagers playing pool in
Hensall and had contacted the
Ontario Provincial Police for
the regulations concerning this.
He expalined they had con-
tacted W. G. Cochrane, Q.C.,
Exeter, and had been told that
no , one under the age of 18
could enter a pool room unless
accompanied by a parent or
guardian.
A by-law passed in Hensall
in 1945 stipulated that persons
between the ages of 16 and 18
could enter a pool room as
long as they had their parents'
consent, and a sign stating this
had been placed in the pool
room.
Davis stated that owner Bert
Horton had already changed
his sign to cover the higher
age. "With the new by-law I
can go in any time and if any-
one shouldn't be in there, I
can make sure they don't go
in again," Davis stated.
Seek sub-station
Following a discussion on the
street lights in the village,
council asked Reeve Norman
Jones to consider requesting
the Ontario Hydro to erect a
sub-station near Hensall to
give them better service.
The councillors pointed up
several examples of the low
voltage available in Hensel!,
especially at peak periods, cit-
ing cases where TV's go al-
most blank at supper time and
in homes situated near the
arena,
"An engineer told me once if
