Campaign for the 1963 March

Volunteer Fire Brigade.
Canisters have been placed
in various places of business
throughout the town. Anyone
wishing to make personal con-
tributions may send them to
Fire Chief Irwin Ford or Sec-
retary Frank Creech.
Money raised in the campaign
will be used to finance research
on muscular dystrophy and re-
lated diseases, so that a. treat-
ment or cure may be found for
them.
These diseases - which main-
ly afflict children - lay waste to
the muscles. They cause pro-

limit the child's life expectancy.

all nations should remember

The local service, to Which
all local congregations were
invited, was held the day of the
president's burial.
The service was a requiem
eucharist, one offered for the
repose of the souls of the faith-
ful departed.
A crowd of about 100 joined
in a requiem sacrament for the
late President John F. Kennedy
in Trivitt Memorial Anglican
church Monday night.
Rev. J, Philip Gandon called
the late president a man "with
burning convictions and the
courage to stand by those con-
victions."
The rector stressed that the
assassinated head of the U.S.
was "a man whose Christian
faith was a vital part of his
life".

In one of two changes which
resulted from McGillivray no-
minations Friday afternoon, a
father handed over his office to
his son.
Leslie Morley, 34, son, of
veteran councillor Earl Morley,
succeeded his father who re-
tired because of ill health.
Another veteran councillor,
and former reeve, Earl. Dixon,
also resigned and he was re-
placed by Ben Thompson who
has served on several different
occasions on council in the
past.
Returned were Reeve Thomas
Hall and Councillors Grant
Amos and 13ryden Taylor, along
with Trustees Ellison Whiting
and Donald Scott.
No other nominations were
made.
RAISES ROW
The lack of candidates did
not eliminate controversy dur-
ing the ratepayers' m e e ting
which followed. Perennial coun-
cil watchdog, Walter Grieve,
caused several heated exchan-
ges with his pointed questions
to the township fathers.
He first succeeded in break-
ing a long-standing tradition by
having someone other than the
clerk chair the meeting. For-
mer reeve Fred Heaman, who
has been appointed treasurer
for 1964, took over the chair at
Grieve's insistence. Normally
Clerk Bill Amos presides.
A protest was made when
Grieve nominated Heama.n
chaired but Grieve shot back:
"He (Amos) runs the meeting
like a dictator, butts in and
answers questions when he
shouldn't. He doesn't even have
a vote in the township unless
there is a tie."
To the crowd, Grieve shouted:
"All those against, stand up".
No one did, but quite a number
laughed.
Heaman took over the job but
said he "never had any objec-
tions to Bill (Amos) as chair-
man."
Grieve's belief that the chair-
man should not butt in apparent-
ly does not extend to himself.
He interrupted numerous times
while off i cials were making
their reports.
Among Grieve's complaints:
Protest against the posting of
the voters' list in Parkhill,
rather than at the township of-
fice (other officials thou ght
Parkhill, where the office of the
clerk is located, was a central
and convenient location);
A charge that the clerk would
not send him a financial report
on a municipal drain(irate clerk
Amos shouted that he had sent
the report by registered letter
to Grieve but the latter had
refused it--Grieve said he
wouldn't accept a registered
letter when the clerk drove by
his house almost daily);
Criticizing council for not
having a breakdown of the year' s
expenses according to depart-
ments (this occurred while
Councillor Dixon was giving his
annual report on the breakdown
of the total tax rate);
Drawing attention to a com-
ment by the auditors that the
treasurer did not keep a separ-
ate drainage ledger (Retiring
treasurer Patterson said he
could account for every cent
spent on drains, explaining that
the ledger was a new record
which the auditors requested);
Demanding financial reports
on drains constructed in the
1920's and '30's;
Wondering why patients in
private nursing homes weren't
transferred to the county home
at Strathroy, where costs were
cheaper — "that's discrimina-
tion of the worst sort" (Reeve
Hall explained that the commit-
tee, of which he is a member,
should not interfere with the
nursing homes and that the
county home would soon fill up
anyway.)
At one point, Councillor Dixon
told Grieve: "If there were
more like you, there wouldn't
be a council".
