Stage meeting on development An open meeting on rural de- velopment will be held next Thursday in the CHSS audi- torium, Clinton, at 8:00 p.m. The meeting is being planned by the Huron County Rural De- velopment Association and is open to anyone interested in the development of the resources within the county. A panel made up of the newly formed County council ARDA committee will be featured. They will discuss ARDA on the basis of what it is and its possibilities in the development of resources. —.Continued from front page His project was estimated to cost about $3,200. However, the decision will not be up to Stephen council apparently, as they instructed the clerk, Ross Haugh, to in- form the trustees of all three police villages — Centralia, Crediton and Dashwood—to have definite request for apro- ject in each before the June meeting. They will also be asked to de- tail the method of financing the balance of the monies needed for the projects, over and above the grants which will be re- ceived. The two governments pay $1.00 per capita each for cen- tennial projects, and S tephen has about 2,700 residents. Based on population in each of the three villages, Crediton will receive 50% of the grant avail- able and the other two will re- ceive 50% each.

Full vocational setup considered by board Fire chasers raise big dust The air was filled around the c an n i n g plant early Monday evening after the fire siren blew. But it wasn't with smoke. The cloud was dust created by a stream of eager fire-watchers who rushed to the scene in cars and trucks. They were disappointed. It was a false alarm. — Continued from front page plans would slow down proceed- ings on the needed addition at the local school. However, Rev. John Boyne pointed out the planned addition wouldn't be ready until January anyway. "Mr. Scott says he'll be sur- prised if it's ready by Septem- ber, 1965," Mr. Sturgis com- mented. Elmer Bell, QC, questioned if the local school was large enough to efficiently equip and run a complete vocational pro- gram. He was told authorities con- sider 1,000 students are neces- sary to make it economical. There will be more than this CROP REPORT Seeding of spring grain in Huron is practically completed with early sown fields showing green.

Dr. Read paid he felt his committee could have come work done on the subject prior to the next board meeting. NEED EQUIPMENT Terming the amount of equip- ment available at the present time as "atrocious" and a "horrible display", Principal. H. L. Sturgis backed up a re- quest from teacher Bruce Perry for an expenditure of $1,900 for physics equipment. It was also reported the science inepector had been "very dissatisfied" with the equipment for use in the labs, especially in view of the needs to teach the new course to be started next year. The inspector suggested $3,- 000 worth of equipment should be purchased. Mr. Sturgis explained the equipment had been neglected over the years and he was anx- ious to see that the teacher received what he wanted. The beard agreed to allow an expenditure up to $2,000. In other business, the board: Supported a request from Claude Farrow that he be auth- orized to attend a driver train- ing course in Toronto this fall. He explained this in no way would commit the board to hire him if they started driver train- ing for students; noting that all applicants had to have approval from a board before they could take the course. Acted on the recommendation of Doug O'Brien to call tend- ers for the painting of all out- side woodwork on the school building.

Cut guarded area at resort's beach Grand Bend rate provides laterals signs advise the public where this service will be given, They feel it is too expensive a project to guard the length of the beach throughout the village. Donald Odbert was given per- mission to operate his business of four Fun-a-Marin paddle- boats off the beach this season. He will use the section of beach at the foot of main street, where water rights belong to Harold Klapp. These paddleboats oper- ated last summer on the river.

Klopp said no, he wouldn't complain about the tax rate, but that he wanted the water system to go in. Councillor Ian Coles com- mented that he felt property values would go up as soon as a good supply of water is made available throughout the village. —Continued from front page with regard to lights which will be needed on the new section of Highway B1, and the wish of the PUC that these lights be similar to those already installed in the village, rather than the mercury type which the department of highways would normally instal. A meeting with officials of the Department will be sought in this regard. Frank Plumb of Happy Valley cabins, spoke to council and asked that consideration be given to using the river bed for water mains, and asked that the tax rate be increased to pay for the installation of the distribu- tion system, and get the job done. Harold Klopp, owner of the Colonial Hotel, asked for im- mediate action towards a water system. "If you're not going ahead with it," he said, "I will have to re-build my lines. And if I do, I will plan to serve only my own places. It is too expensive a thing to continue supplying the Legion Hall, the GRAND BEND From ten applications for jobs as lifeguards on the Grand Bend Beach, council on Monday night selected six names of persons to be interviewed by the clerk, Murray De sJ a.r d ins. From these applicants, four will be hired to guard swimmers throughout the 1964 summer season. It is the intention of council to reduce the section of the beach which will be served by lifeguards this summer, and by Firecrackers can't be set off It is against the law to set off fireworks in Exeter at anytime. This information was passed on to council by Clerk C. V. Pickard after Councillor Ted Wright questioned if there were any restrictions on the use of firecrackers. It was evident from the dis- cussion that several other coun- cil members had been receiving complaints about the same problem, and that the local police had been trying to find out what authority they had as well. Wright said he had been "flooded with calls". He added firecrackers were a very serious thing, citing a recent case where a lady had had her stockings ignited by a tossed firecracker. "If there had been any gas in the area it could have been bad," he commented. The police will be informed of the bylaw and it was hinted by several councillors that they hoped the force would take steps to end the problem. HARBOUR WORK Council expects to meet with Walter Foy, MP for Lambton West, this coming weekend, with regard to some problems which have been discovered at the harbour, where Dean Construe- tion Ltd., Windsor, is carrying out a federal government dred- ging project. Burton Green approached council with regard to his in- tention of operating a trailer camp at his home, with spaces for about eight trailers this year. When completed the area of the camp will be about two acres. Continued from front page ppened subdivisions, "They were approved before and are over and done with," replied Wooden. This is a new one and we can chenge our policy in light of experience With subdivisions in past years, he stated. "We must have learned something from our Problems," Wpoden concluded, noting the present practice of issuing per- mits subject to existing drain- age conditions was poor. "Ultimately it comes back to the town and we have to do some- thing about it," he stated. A case in point was present- ed earlier at the meeting when Mrs. Lloyd Parsons complained to council about the lack of drainage around her home on Waterloo Street, which was re- sulting in her basement being continually plagued with water. The Parsons home was built under the present pradtice of issuing permits under existing drainage conditions, and it was explained to her that council was not obligated to furnish a drain. Mayor Simmons told her that all the owners along the street would have to sign a petition re- questing a municipal drain, and that they would have to agree to pay frontage charges. He made this reply after Mrs. Parsons had presented a query of "don't you guys have to give me an outlet of some kind?" It was predicted that about nine property owners would be involved. However, later in the meet- ing, Clerk' Pickard cautioned council that no funds were avail- able for such projects, regard- less if they received a petition or not, Mrs. Parsons told council she didn't think people should have to pay taxes until they have pro- per drains. Council decided to send Jim Paisley, works superintendent, to investigate the situation once again. Some time ago it had been hoped to connect the area into the sewer system, but it was found the tile in the connecting drain were not suitable for such a project. In other business, council: Took no action to send a re- presentative to a Rural De- velopment meeting planned in Clinton on May 14. Filed a resolution from New Toronto asking the government to cease using property tax as the basis for education costs: Instead meeting these expenses on the basis of personal and corporation income. Learned the PUC had planted 30 new trees and the town share was $162.00. Also were inform- ed of a complaint about, the fact the trees had not been purchased locally. Were informed the Huron board of health had the draft of an animal control bylaw for any municipalities wishing to implement one. Received a letter of thanks from the family of the late Donald MacDonald for flowers sent to his funeral. Told Councillor F e r gu so n that dogs are to be tied up for the entire year. He asked what regulations there were in this regard, stating he had received some complaints of dogs run- ning at large. Were told the town clock had stopped due to the fact no one in particular was appointed to wind it when it needed it every Hay awards calcium bid The board at HSDHS were in- formed Tuesday night the local students attending the vocation- al school at Clinton appear to be conducive to picking up all sorts of maladies. Secretary-treasurer E.D. Howey read off an attendance report showing students from HSDHS had missed a total of 132 days in the month of March alone, This figure includes only those students who have been absent for four days or more, so presumably the total may be higher. The list showed a total of 19 students who had missed more than four days, averaging out to about seven days each. One student missed 18 days in the month. "Good heavens" exclaimed Roy Morenz when the report was read. Garnet Hicks, HSDHS repre- sentative on the Clinton AVC, reported truancy at the school was growing "by leaps and bounds" and added that God- erich students had an even worse record than the area pupils. The excuses listed were "everything imaginable" ac- cording to Hicks. Chairman Ken Johns ex- pressed concern at the report, pointing out the fact it was costing the board $2.71 per day to send the students to Clinton — whether they attended or not. He urged the press to point out this amounted to a con- siderable waste of time and money and it was the pupils who were suffering. Hicks stated there was a total of 110 students absent from Clinton on the day before they started Easter vacation. Principal H. L. Sturgis re- ported some students at the lo- cal school also failed to show up during one of the fine days at the beginning of spring, and told the board the students were now making up the time in after- school sessions. E. D. Bell, QC, questioned him what happened to students who had to ride home on the bus. "They jolly well find their way home," Mr. Sturgis report- ed, "they managed to find their way around town on the day they weren't here," indicating some of the absenteeism was not considered excusable. No action was taken by the board on the report from Clin- ton. The report had been re- quested in particular by the Goderich school, where con- cern had been shown for the large number from that school failing to show up for classes in Clinton. Mr. Sturgis concluded the discussion with the statement: "the better the student — the healthier they appear to be", indicating poorer students tend to miss more classes than those of higher scholastic standing.

CONSIDER COST One of the main considera- tions given to the recommenda- tion was naturally the cost involved. While no figures were avail- able for an accurate estimation, several board members pre- dicted there would be little more cost involved for area municipalities than what they have already agreed to provide for the planned addition, de- spite the extra facilities and equipment which would be need- ed. The reason cited for this is that the government pays 75% of the total cost of shops and equipment for a complete vo- cational setup. Also, the money is received immediately after the bills are presented, rather than over a 20-year period as is the case for an academic addition. An opinion was also express- ed that it was possible the fe- deral government may renew their offer to pay the remain- ing costs for vocational schools as they did when the Clinton school was built with 100% grants for shops and equipment. If their figuring is correct, it would mean the contributing municipalities would not have to raise any more funds than are already needed for the plan- ned addition. Although members express- ed the thought the recommenda- tion should be considered for some time, they noted time was of the essence as negotitations would have to commence im- mediately with the Clinton board if they decided to extend courses here. The matter is also urgent due to the fact more room is required at the local school. A meeting with Mr. Scott has tentatively been arranged for Tuesday. "BUILT-IN LOOK" AuMmagicat Hay Township council hadfew items of business at their May meeting, spending most of the time reading two dr ai nage works reports. The reports on the Bender and Schwalm drainage works were read and given first and second readings.
