E, BURT Another week has gone by and Christmas is just around the corner, you would never know it here at the Center though, as we are just as busy as ever. St. Patrick's Church held a card party and dance in the audi- torium Friday night and a very enjoyable evening was enjoyed by all in attendance. In Minor Hockey last Fri. night Dorchester invaded the Centre against the Lucan Irish, they were repelled quite convincing- ly. In pee wee it was Lucan '7 Dorchester 0. The Bantam game was a real battle as the Irish eked out a 3-2 win, then the Irish midgets really went to town by drubbing Dorchester by a score of 9-3. In the Novice League on Saturday, Lambeth and Exeter battled to a two all draw. Stoney- brook and Strathroy didn't fare any better as it was a 1-1 stand off. The home team did a little better as they beat Huron A 4-0. This could have been 15-0 if it hadn't been for the stand out goal tending of 7-year-old Pat Riggin (pat is the son of the great goalie Dennis Riggin) and the final game was a squeaker with Dorchester defeating Huron B 1-0.

"Cam" Chapman as a Member of the Public Utilities Commission. Chapman who has served as a PUC commissioner since 1959 after several years as a coun- cillor is expecting to move from the municipality and thus render- ed his resignation. Under municipal law, council has the authority to appoint a man to complete Chapman's term of office that will expire in Decem- ber of next year, A committee, composed of The Grand Bend Public Utili- ties Commission has received two resignations during the past Week. At a meeting Monday, the sum- mer resort's PUC learned of the resignation of their manage r Glenn Manley, The Manley resig- nation takes effect at the end of the year as he is taking a similar position in Southampton early in 1968. Manley has served as manager of the Bend PUC for about three years. The Commission is now advertising for a working super- intendent to fill the vacancy. Reeve Orval Wassmann and •coun- oillors Douglas Martin and John Teevins has been given the task to fill the vacant PUC post, The other members of the PUC are Reeve Wassmann and Lawrence Mason. Council received a carbon copy of a letter from Lambton MP Lorne Henderson to provincial police authorities in Toronto ask- ing that one or two of the officers of the Forest OPP detachment be transferred to the Grand Bend area because of the acute hous- ing shortage in Forest and the need for better policing in the summer resort. Despite complaints from Grand Bend residents that they are not receiving the necessary police protection since the resident con- stable has moved out under the new provincial plan of policing small communities, Reeve Wass- mann said he felt the village was getting better winter time pro- tection than ever before. The reeve added that he has been promised that at least one cruiser would be in the area be- tween port Franks and Grand Bend at all times. This was borne out by councillor Howard Green who had the need to go to a phone and call for an OPP officer Sun- day night and found a cruiser at the scene when he arrived back. Reeve Orval Wassmann and councillor Douglas Martin will be attending a meeting in the Exeter public school on January 25 to organize a district Retard e d Children Association. Di str ict school supervisor F, W. Wilkin- son is spearheading the drive to form a group to help retarded children of the area. In other business, council: Endorsed a resolution from the City of Sarnia calling for renew- ed efforts to oppose any lifting of bans that now prohibit oil drilling in Lake Huron, Lake St. Clair and the St. Clair and De- troit rivers. Instructed clerk Murray A. DesJardins to contact drainage engineers Gamsby and Mannerow of Guelph concerning a problem on the Walker drain within the confines of the village. Exeter pupils again to aid Korean lad hoped the school would be able to support the youth until he has finished his education. A recent letter from Korea notes that Hung Jin has entered a three-year technical course in a senior high school, major- ing in a communications course which will teach him about trans- mission and receipt of wireless telegraph. He is fond of singing and be- longs to the photography club at the school. Academically he is placed above the middle in his class. Most of the funds provided by the Exeter pupils are used for Hung Jin's education needs. His mother suffers from tuberculosis and he has an older brother and one sister in grade one. In a letter in August he re- ported he lived near a boat fac- tory where a 6,000-ton ship had just been launched and work started on another of 10,000 tons.

The donations are in lieu of the annual exchange of presents among the students, and the youngsters in all grades are asked to contribute the amount they would normally spend on the exchange with fellow pupils. Cost of caring for Park Hung Jin is $192 and any excess is used to send him small pres- ents throughout the year. Principal Arthur Idle said he Two boys and two girls, Jeff park, Ian McLellan, Jeanette Barr, and Nancy Simpson, pre- sented the well-filled baskets of white gifts.

The guest speaker was the Rev. R. L. Mosley of Toronto. Hensall man injures arm Leslie Riley, 24, Hensall, underwent surgery in Victoria Hospital, London, Wednesday afternoon. He got his right arm injured when a chain saw he was operat- ing kicked back arid inflicted the injuries. He was cutting logs in a bush near Komoka with Alvin Taylor, Hensall, a logging con- tractor, who took him to hospital. The accident happened shortly before noon, Wednesday. He received a deep gash in the arm and the tendons were cut. Police to aid pedestrians Chief C. H. MacKenzie advised council Monday he would attempt to have an officer on duty at the corner of John and Main St. as much as possible during the com- ing Christmas shopping season. Reeve Boyle suggested that with increased numbers of shop- pers it was a good idea to have an officer controlling traffic and Chief MacKenzie agreed. "I get there all I can," Chief MacKenzie explained, and added he would have the other two officers spend more time on foot patrol. "We need a man there as often as possible," he stated. In his report, the Chief also asked that a stop sign removed from the corner of Gidley and Senior Streets be put back now that construction in that area has been completed. Councillor Joe Wooden said the signs were important to con- trol traffic near the high school and it was left to Chief Mac- Kenzie to have the works de- partment replace the sign as soon as possible, A request from the police that they receive new winter fur caps was turned over to the police committee. It was explained the present caps were out of style. When asked what they were wearing, Chief MacKenzie re- plied: "the old brown ones we got for $3.98". He reported the cost of new caps would be $12.50 each. At his suggestion, council also authorized the clerk to have a new bylaw prepared prohibiting the parking of cars on Main St. from 1:00 to 6:00 am during the winter months. The police report for No- vember showed the following statistics: Five reportable and four non- reportable accidents with total damage of $1,192; four places found insecure; three summon- ses and four investigations car- ried out for other forces; three parking tickets issued and two charges under the Criminal Code laid; 54 complaints investigated; three dogs taken to the pound; one theft over $50 and one under $50 with total loss of $75.
