Monday that the installation of traffic lights at the corner of Sanders and Main St. would cost between $4,000 and $5,000. The estimate was given by PUC manager Hugh Davis, who had received some idea of the cost from the London PUC. The matter of traffic lights for the corner has been brought up several times in recent years and the department of transport reported after a traffic study last year that the lights were not needed. However, councillors noted the study had been taken on an "off" day, and in view of this and con- tinued requests from residents, Councillor George Vriese sug- gested a month ago that, costs be determined because the best time to instal the lights was during the reconstruction. He was not present at the Monday meeting when the prices were revealed. "That's a fantastic figure," May repair old 'calamity' Exeter council decided this week to spend up to $70 to put the old garbage truck in a safe operating condition after learn- ing from Deputy-Reeve Mery Cudmore that some local citizens weredisturbed at the vehicle being allowed on the streets at all. "What are we going to do about the calamity vehicle?" he questioned in raising the sub- ject. During the discussion it was learned that the brakes.are poor due to a leakage 'and that the muffler needs replacing. The truck is used very little, but it is still required for some work. "As a responsible group we should have it in a safe condi- tion as far as these two things are concerned," Cudmore stated. Councillor Ross Dobson was in favor of taking the $*(%&# thing off the road entirely, but council finally agreed to have it inspected and see what it would cost to fix the brakes and muffler. They also learned they were having trouble with the dump in view of the fact someone had stolen the padlock off the gate. Deputy-Reeve Mery Cudmore stated. Other members agreed and Councillor Joe Wooden thought there were better places to spend $5,000. Council decided to wait until next meeting to make an y decision, but few appeared in favor of the expenditure. At that meeting, they hope to have plans for lights from the department of highways so they can better determine what other costs may be involved. Council also received recom- mendations from the PUC re- garding the improvement of light- ing on some streets and these were approved. They include the area around the swimming pool and River- view Park, the Simcoe St. area, and the portions of William and Andrew Streets which are being used as detour routes for through traffic during the highway re- construction. DOG CATCHER It never rains but what it pours! That old adage appears to be holding up as far as dog catcher Stephen needs more teachers Due to an expected large en- rollment at their Huron Park school, members of the Stephen township school area board de- cided Tuesday night to advertise for four more teachers. Although official registration for all grades of children from Huron Park will be held at the centralia school, Monday, apre- liminary survey ,completed re- cently revealed the increase would be about 100 children. Board secretary Wilmar D. Wein told the T-A Wednesday morning "We might have to do some changing and doubling up at the Central School, too. There now appears to be many more children than we had planned for." Wein also said the board would be meeting again Tuesday night to decide on bus routes and where the dividing line in the town- ship will be for children to at- tend either the Huron Park school or the Central school, west of Crediton. services for Exeter are con- cerned. For many years, council failed to get anywhere in attempts ,to find a dog catcher, but now that they have signed up with the London Humane Society, they have other offers coming in each meeting. Last week, the Exeter Veter- inary Clinic presented a pro- posal whereby they would hire a dog catcher and provide a four-hour patrol in the months of May, June, July, August and Sep- tember at a fee of $1,075. In addition, they would pick up dogs captured by the police or private citizens, as well as dogs injured in car accidents where the owner was not known. This week, council received a letter from Ernest "Pete" Willard, Centralia, saying he would perform a similar service for $900 per year. It was decided, with little dis- cussion, to turn the entire matter over to the protection to per- sons and property committee for study and recommendations. Comments expressed at the meeting indicated several mem- bers are anxious to have the services of the London Humane Society terminated because few dogs have been caught. However, Councillor Jim New- Main St. — Continued from front page due to the storm sewer worlt. Paisley said in view of the fine weather he had hoped the contractors would have put men on extra hours to catch up to the shovel operator so the work would continue at a,fast rate. Councillor` 'Joe Wooden led the criticism of the delay and was further perplexed to learn that it was doubtful if work would be extended past Gidley St. this year. Paisley indicated that this was the present plan and that the contractor had been given until November 21 to have the Huron to Gidley Street portion com- pleted. Earlier, it had been reported that the work on the business section would be completed by mid-October. Wooden said he couldn't under- stand how all these arrangements were be ing made without the municipality being advised or consulted. "There's nothing we can do," stated Reeve Derry Boyle. "We can protest," Councillor Wooden replied and his motion to protest the delay in digging was carried. by pointed out that hiring the firm had paid dividends in the fact that the publicity had resulted in fewer dogs running at large. GB council -- Continued from front page underway was $13,532.17. Quart- erly payments on this account are being made to OWRC and will be completed by the end of 1969. A Mr. Skinner, owner of a cottage at the corner of Elm- wood and Walker streets ap- peared before council with a complaint that every rainstorm was washing out the foundation of his building. Council decided to shelve the matter until completion of the water system in this area. Gord Kraft, owner of Ye Old Theatre building disputed his be- ing billed for a $50 dance hall licence for his property. Kraft said, "I've never charg- ed anybody to dance. I rent my establishment to various clubs and groups for whatever pur- pose they want. I opened it spec- ifically for banquet purposes." Clerk Murray Des Jardins said "this is a policy decision." Alter considerable discussion council decided to get a ruling from their solicitor. If weather conditions are right Sunday, the Puhlie PPOPIO Oe treated to quite a show at Sex- smith Airport PP the farm of Leonard Greb, RR 1 Exeter. Mr. Greb says the based oiler- ators of SePs0141 are ealoePting XI= 50 to 100 planes to attend the one-day fly-in providing the weatherman co-operates withthe efforts of the group. Though some pilots and Pas- sengers, arrive Saturday evening: to stay overnight, mo,st lane begin arriving about 11 a.m, and stay until early evening. All who fly in are treated to a free corn and Weiner roast but folks who drive in can have the same benefits for a ,nominal charge, Again depending on the weather, a display of parachute jumping is planned. A number of free draws will entitle spectators to free air- plane rides, and rides will also be available to those who wish to pay for the pleasure. Found Brothers Aviation Ltd., Grand Bend, is expected to have a plane on the grounds for display purposes. As this is a general fly-in, some home-built planes are likely to set down at Sexsmith to add to the show.
