Passmore was fined $101.50 and had his licence suspended for one month, Friday in provincial court, criminal division, by Judge Glenn Hays after he pleaded guilty to a charge of careless driving in Hensall, May 11. Evidence showed Pas,snaore was proceeding west on Richmond Street after rounding a corner when he hit apiarked car owned by Thompson, London. Damage to the Thompson car was estimated at $800 while damage sustained by the Passmore vehicle Amounted to $800, Too much speed was a factor in the mishap, the court learned. A guilty plea was entered by Ross Elliott, Exeter, charged • with careless driving on Highway 83, May 24. His fine was $25 and costs and his licence was suspended for one year. Elliott and a friend had been visiting at a home on the Thames Road. The friend offered to.- drive Elliott home since Elliott had been drinking. Evidence revealed Elliott had forced his friend to let him drive the car. Elliott had operated the vehicle in an "erratic manner". An Exeter man who spent six weeks in hospital following a one-vehicle accident on Highway 4 about one and one-quarter miles south of Hensall, paid a fine of $22.80 on a charge of careless driving. Gordon Phillips had pleaded not guilty to the January 3 charge. He stated he was travelling south on the highway and had attempted to turn right. When he applied the brakes, the pickup truck he was driving went into a tail-spin, crossed the highway and' turned onto its roof in the east ditch. He said he blinked his lights to attract the attention of other • drivers but it was sometime before someone stopped to help. His lawyer, Peter Raymond maintained there was no lack of care on the part of his client. He said the icy road and the empty truck combined to contribute to the mishap. Crown Attorney McAvoy contended Phillips knew where he was going to make the turn and since there was no emergency, sufficient care had not been taken. The investigating officer had reported the odor of some alcoholic beverage on Phillip's breath but there was no evidence of intoxication. Judge Hays decided on a conviction in the case of Kenneth John Horrell, Exeter, on a charge of failing to stop at a stop sign because of several previous convictions to Horrell. Horrell had pleaded not guilty to the charge arising out of an incident in Stephen Township May 5 at the junction of County Road 4 and County Road 21. The witness, Arthur Attfield said he was travelling east on County Road 4 when Horrell turned out in front of him without stopping at the corner. Attfield said Harrell had only slowed up at the intersection. Horrell claimed he had stopped, that he had seen Attfield coming and that Attfield had subsequently passed him, blowing his horn. A sister of Horrell substantiated his evidence. Horrell's fine was $10 and costs of $8.20. His driver's licence was suspended and he will lose three points as a result of the conviction. Barry E. Robinson, London, apologized for travelling 90 miles per hour in a 60 mph zone on Highway 4, May 8, said it would not ever happen again and paid a fine of $50 and costs. Lloyd Stanlake, Exeter, pleaded guilty to making an improper turn on William Street and colliding with another vehicle. Total damage was $375. His fine was $22.80. A guilty plea was entered by Hans Bischoff, Centralia, who passed to the right of another car unsafely, An accident resulted. Bisehoffs fine was $27.80. William E. Brock, Exeter, was fined $26.50 for making unnecessary noise May 8 in Hensall. Grace K. Bloch, Zurich, failed to yield the right of way when backing out of her driveway and was fined $20 and costs. LIQUOR CHARGES Ronald L. Ducharme, Zurich, was lined $40 and casts for having liquor in a place other than his residence. Evidence showed that Ducharme was on the borderline of impairment when he was stopped in Hensall after travelling at speeds of up to 85 miles per hour to the village. A fine of $75 and costs was levied against Glenn Stire, Exeter, who was charged with having liquor in his possession while under the legal age of 21 years. Stire had been driving in the vicinity of the high school at a high rate of speed, Beer was found in the car. Accidents — Continued from Front Page Richrhond Street south. Constable Giffin again investigated and set damages at $200. The same day, also in Hensall, a car driven by Barbara J. Drennan, London southbound on No. 4 left the highway and struck a concrete light standard on the east side 'of the road. Giffin listed damages at $300. Constable Wilcox estimated damages of $100 to a car driven by Oscar Tuckey, RR 3 Exeter, when it went out of control and careened across the intersection of Highway 84 and Huron Road 31, Monday evening. During the past week, officers of the local detachment laid 14 charges under the Highway Traffic Act and issued warnings to another 21 drivers. Senior Citizens planning picnic Exeter senior citizens held another meeting June 3 in the Legion Hall. Mr. Herman Powe, vice-president, was emcee for the evening with Mrs. Sorenson at the piano. Entertainment was supplied by the following artists: Miss Darlene Passmore, Tommy Walker, Earl Stebbins, Misses Dianne and Vicki Miller, Gordon Smith, Hilton Ford, Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Johnston, Mrs. Bishop, Mrs. Emery Fahner and Miss Cathy Dewar, The members voted to hold a picnic July 16. June 18 they visit St. Marys Senior Citizens. By Richmond Atkey R. J. Carter, a teacher in the technical department of Goderich District Collegiate Institute, charged in a letter read at a meeting of Huron County Board of Education in Central Huron Secondary School, Clinton, Monday evening, that a "two-pay" system existed in the negotiation of contracts between the teachers and the Board. "I wish to place on record as being utterly opposed to the two-pay system as suggested to the teaching staff by our negotiating committee," he said. "Any system of remuneration which permits teachers of equal qualification and experience, to be paid different salaries, is totally unfair and discriminatory. "In my opinion, not only are you gentlemen remiss in considering any such scheme but our own members on the committee are equally at fault in entertaining such an unfair practice. If this two-pay practice is placed into effect, it is sure to perpetuate the 'special deal' and 'under-the-table' hiring practice that has placed us all in the present unhappy situation. "I ask that the Board reconsider the situation, its fairness and legality, and if possible, decide on a one-pay system for all." Board members appeared a little non-plussed in interpreting the meaning of the term "two-pay system", as alleged by Mr. Carter. Asked to give his opinion on the matter, John B. Levis, Clinton, chairman of the Board, said he did not pretend to understand what was meant by Mr. Carter, but probably it was this: "A teacher in Goderich might be getting more or less money than a teacher in Clinton or Seaforth or Wingham or Exeter, because he had been hired on certain terms by a Board REV. W. D. JARVIS Churches get new minister The newly-appointed minister of the Exeter, Hensall and Cromarty Presbyterian churches is expected to arrive in Exeter hi late June. The Rev, Wilfred D. Jarvis is presently serving Braeside Presbyterian church in St. Albert, Alberta and will be remaining there until the end of the school year. Rev. Jarvis was born in Aultsville, Ontario and graduated from Queen's University and Knox College in Toronto. He was ordained by the Presbytery of Glengarry and has served congregations at Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan and Merigornish, Nova Scotia. Mrs, Jarvis is a native of New York State and is a graduate of Syracuse General Hospital School of Nursing. There Are five children in the Jarvis family, Timrny, Marie, Gordon, Stephen and Joanne, All but the latter are 'nvolved in Boy Scout and Girl Guide activities, previously in existence," he volunteered. He pointed out that this is one of the problems facing the new County Board of Education. D. J. Cochrane, director of education for the County, was emphatic in his declaration that "there is no such thing as a two-pay system." Mr. Carter's letter was referred to the Secondary Tenders have been called for construction of a new 33-foot wide bridge on Highway 8 over Silver Creek, the Hon. C. S. MacNaughton announced this week. The new rigid frame structure will replace the present steel beam and concrete span built in the early 1920s just east of Seaforth. The new bridge will provide approximately 10-feet more width for traffic than the existing' one. To the Editor, Hoorah for the Student Council. They brought the London Symphony Orchestra to S.H.D.H.S. They have something of which to be proud. The audience was small but it is a beginning and a number of us appreciated it. May I say "Thank You" to those responsible for a wonderful evening. I have been asked to give my comment on the evening. We need to have more concerts of this type, from which our young people could learn and appreciate better music in its pure form. Some of the composers whose music was performed that evening were Beethoven, born 1770; Handel, 1685; Mozart, 1756; Berlioz, 1803. Their music is still performed by outstanding musicians hundreds of years after it was written. That speaks for itself. The modern music may make the "Hit Parade" but it lasts only a few short weeks. Did you know the orchestra members have to tune their instruments to the one note, A, usually given by the oboe? The ensuring sounds are the tuning sounds. Imagine! Each violin, viola, cello, bass have four strings to tune. Did you count the number of players in each group? To the unaccustomed ear it would be a noisy business to tune up. Then there are all the other instruments too! Did you ever attend a meeting where the people did not talk and chatter until called to order? The musicians "talk and c hatter" on their instruments until called to order. The conductor must bring all players to one perfect point. Sylvia Karges sang with tones so beautifully placed, I wish she had sung more songs. Trained singers are rare. Having been a Member of a choir which sang as guests Of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra on More than one occasion, I know the study and the work which must be done for such an evening Of music. It was a thrilling experience. Thanks for bringing back happy memories. Margaret Coates Medicine has cut down on the diseases of childhood.

Schools Salary Negotiating Committee under the chairmanship of D. J. Murphy, Goderich, who is on vacation in Europe until June 19, The committee met after the Board meeting and appointed a chairman pro tern, John Broadfoot, RR 1 Brucefield, R. M. Elliott, RR 3 Clinton, was added to committee temporarily. The Huron MPP revealed that construction is expected to start early in August and will be completed by the middle of November to avoid detour inconvenience during the winter months. During construction a semi-permanent detour will be provided with a paved surface. The new bridge will have a clear span of 30 feet in length. In addition to the 33-foot width travelling surface, there will be a sidewalk on one side and handrails on•either edge. The department of highways contract also calls for new approaches on each side of the bridge covering a length of three-tenths of a mile. It is expected that total cost of the work including engineering and other fees will be around $100, 000. May consolidate county welfare A county welfare unit was suggested at Friday's session of Huron County Council when James Deneau, Wingham, of the Ontario Welfare Department addressed council. Mr, Deneau urged that a committee be formed to investigate the other county welfare units already operating in the province. He asked them to especially inquire concerning the matter of staffing and administration with regard to costs. At present rates, Mr. Deneau estimated it would cost the county about $23,000 to establish a county welfare unit. He said 50 percent of the administration costs would be paid by the province. Three persons would likely be required to staff the office, Mr. Deneau said including an administrator, a field worker and one other clerical employee. The system was considered by county council about four years ago, Mr. Deneau recalled, but it was turned down by a close vote. The speaker also reviewed recent legislation with regard to welfare. Fire agreement at Huronview A new tine protection agreement has been reached between the town of Clinton and the County of Huron for Huronview. The annual retaining foe is $235.80 with fire calls charged at the rate of $80 for the first hour and $50 for each additional hour or part thereof, A minor fire broke out at Huronview Thursday although employees had the blaze pretty well under control by the time firemen arrived. Damage amounted to about $500 to $600. "It could have been more serious," Bill Hanley, deputy-clerk for the county, told council, Thirty-one applications have been received in reply to the advertisement, for an administrator. A full report will be made at the June session. The boards met to consider recommendations that were made at a joint meeting two weeks earlier. From July 1 when the two churches join forces officially until the end of the year, the congregation will be known as the Exeter Pastoral Charge. The elders, stewards and ushers of the new congregation will be those holding the present positions in both James Street and Main Street until the next annual meeting.

Glenn Wright will be the minister of the new congregation on the same terms as those made by the James Street official board. A minimum of repairs will be made to the James Street manse for current use while a committee will be established to consider a new manse. A new 15-man trustee board was set up including men from both churches, most of whom are currently holding down trustee positions. Dr. Harvey Cowen was named acting chairman of the official board. Reg Beaver, Peter Raymond and Garnet Hicks were named auditors of the new congregation and Bruce Shaw was elected recording steward. The UC women will be holding a combined meeting on June 9 at which time new officers will be named. The meeting will be chaired by Huron-Perth Presbytery officials. Rev. Bert Daynard of Cromarty, chairman of the Huron-Perth Presbytery Consolidation Committee was chairman for the meeting and reviewed events leading to the joining of the two church groups.
