Sixteen Tanzanians disem- barked from the RCAFCosmo- politan aircraft into a bright but cool windy Western Ontario autumn day. These Officer Cadets will be at the local air station for approximately 8 months. They will first be selected as pilots or technical officers, proceeding to the Language Training School where they will become familiar with the technical vocabulary ne- cessary to their training. Another 12 weeks of indoctrination and fundamental training at the Cen- tral Officers School will be fol- lowed by approximately 12 weeks at the Primary Flying School, where they will receive instruc- tion on the Chipmunk trainer. The 15 Malaysian Pilot Of- ficers, graduates of their own service college, completed along 11,000 mile, 4 day journey via RAF Transport Command from Singapore to London, England. Steam engine will visit area Railroad buffs in the area will get a thrill October 16 and 17 as the last operating steam en- gine owned by the Canadian Na- tional Railway, Number 6218 will make a run from London through Exeter, Clinton, Goderich and return. Officials indicate this will probably be the last run for this engine through this area. The train is operated by the Michigan Railroad Club of De- troit and will not have a rigid schedule. It is estimated the engine will pass through Exeter about noon on Saturday and return about noon on Sunday. The day of the steam engine is definitely passed. The lack of coal and water facilities make it difficult to carry on any ex- tended runs.

Upon completion of their course they will proceed to the Western training units at Gimli and Moose Jaw to continue training on light transport air- craft. • Good harvest weather was at- tributed to the drop in attendance at the Zurich Fall fair Monday afternoon as farmers worked to complete an already late bean harvest. Attendance at the fair dropped by about 350 persons to an attendance level of 1,000 this year. As usual, a colorful parade marked the opening of the fair led by the Clinton Legion pipe band. Marching school children, gaily decorated bicycles, farm equipment, floats, decorated cars and an old steam engine all com- bined to hold the attention of the crowd despite a cool breeze which forced most visitors to wear coats. The brightly dressed Zur- ich Lions Club Majorettes added to the color of the parade. The prize for the best decorat- ed bicycle went to Alvin Millick while Barry Hess had the best decorated tricycle. Whitney Coates and son of Centralia and Hoffman Brothers of Dashwood were the major winners in the Hereford cattle class.

The vote was four to one a- gainst the advance poll. Council- lor Orval Wassmann was the one person to favour it. Arrangements were made with Glen Manley, PUC superintend- ent, for six fluorescent lights on Oak Street to replace the smaller lighting fixtures instal- led there. He also will prepare for Christmas tree lighting in blue this year, on the tree at the south west corner of the main intersection. Constable Ray Gilleno appear- ed before council to suggest a set of movable stop signs to use at the corner in the event of a power failure during which the electric stop lights would be out of use. Before he left, council took the opportunity, with Murray DesJardins, clerk, acting as spokesman, to present a twin desk lamp to Mr. Gilleno. The at her home Wednesday night.

Leases of occupation (or r‘wat- er lots") on the beach were dis- cussed at some length, Though there has been a sign advertis- ing one of the village hotels, and a business of boat rental, on the beach for the past two summer seasons, council became sudden- ly aware of its existence, and plans to write to the Department of Lands and Forests to see if permission for billboards and signs on these water lots exists. A mutual aid system for fire protection is under study and Grand Bend may have the choice of belonging either to Lamhton or Huron systems, or as Reeve Stewart Webb predicted, likely to both, if desired. Word is received that plans for a $58,000 addition to the Grand Bend school has been ap- proved, and a London contractor has the contract. They also re- ceived word from Stephen Town- ship School Area Board that in the $438,000 planned for the new Crediton school, is included $50,- 000 for a garage and for buses. Net profit for the bathhouse and parking lot for this year is recorded at a total of $1,394.09 — about $100 less than the year before.
