IH 7 P at rally
The topic of sharing
transportation services in Perth
County was raised at a meeting of
the Huron-Perth County Roman,
Catholic Separate School Board
Monday night, The
transportation sub-committee
stated it had not met for a second
time with the sub-committee of
the Perth County Board of
Education and no reply had been
received to date to a letter sent
recently requesting a date for a
second meeting.
The sub-committee pointed
out the reason for requesting the
meeting was to save the taxpayer
money through the elimination
of unnecessary bus runs, as
encouraged by the Department of
Education.
Trustee Vincent Young,
Goderich, who co-ordinated the
bussing to the Toronto rally
sponsored by the Ontario
Catholic Student Federation for
equality of education by
extending financial assistance
beyond Grade 10 in catholic
schools, reported the response
from Huron and Perth Counties
was good, with all but two areas
represented.
He said eleven trustees and
many parents accompanied the
students from this area. Five
buses transported about two
hundred from the two counties.
"By going we showed we were
behind our youth," Mr. Young
stated. He said he was impressed
with the behaviour of the
students at the rally.

Exeter businessman and civic
leader passed away at South

Exeter Police Chief Day is
making his annual plea to parents
and children to do all in their
power to ensure a safe and
damage-free Halloween night.
Day said early this week,
"Let's not play "tricks", because
if you do, the police department
is prepared to "treat" you
accordingly."
The Chief added, "In recalling
last Halloween, I remember that
our department had a few
investigations, but most of them
were not of a serious nature and
there was very little vandalism
and destruction of property.
Therefore, I request the
youths of the community to be
just as thoughtful as you were last
year and remember this is your
town and you as a citizen should
respect it's property."
Day also passes on the
following tips to parents of small
children:
Take care of selecting or
making of your childs costume.
Set up some safety rules.
Set up trick or treat boundaries
for your child.
Honor trick or treat night on
the one night only October 31.
Keep porch and yard lights on.
Plan to have competent
supervision for all trick or
treaters.

and fell against the stump, then
got up and ran into the house
before he got to her.
Defense lawyer P. L.
Raymond contended there was
no evidence which would indicate
that the girl had been touched by
Keller, although there was
considerable provocation which
would merit chasing the children
off the Keller property,
However, Judge Hays found
Keller guilty as charged and levied
the $25 fine.
Judge Hays also levied a fine of
$40 against Mark Paquett, Huron
Park, who pleaded guilty to a
charge of causing a disturbance.
The charge arose from an
incident at a Huron Park home
which Paquett had been visiting.
During his visit, an argument
ensued.
Gary Flaxbard,, Zurich, was
fined $20 for littering a highway
on September 12.
The court learned a beer bottle
had been dropped on the road,
but that Plaxbarcl was in the
process of cleaning up the glass
when police came along,

Invite youngsters into the
home for trick or treat.
Remove all lawn chairs and
obstacles from the verandah.
Before your child leaves:
Check the costume, can he be
seen at night, Does the costume
have a reflective band of tape?
Is the costume too long? Will
he trip when walking down the
street?
Will tale costume allow him
freedom of movement?
Make sure hats are securely

Remind him to use the
sidewalks and not the road and be
alert for cars.

injure others or harm their
property.
Exeter man
sent to jail
Eu gene Charles Keenan,
Exeter, was sentenced to a total
of three months in jail when he
appeared before Judge Glenn
Hays for sentence in Goderich,
Thursday.
At an earlier court sitting in
Exeter, Keenan had pleaded
guilty to three charges of break,
enter and theft and one of break
and enter with intent.
Two of the three theft charges
involved breakins at Darling's
IGA in Huron Park and the other
was at Club Albatross in Huron
Park.
The break and enter with
intent was arising from an entry
made into the Bank of Montreal
at Huron Park. Nothing was
reported missing.
He received a one-month
sentence for that charge and a
two-month sentence for the entry
into the Club Albatross.
He was given a suspended
sentence and placed on a
two-year probation period for
each of the breakins into the IGA
store.
Over $400 in cash and
cigarettes were taken from the
two thefts at the supermarket,
while $75 worth of liquor was
missing from Club Albatross.

problems. He went on to say that
people must learn to help
themselves more. "The old
country spirit is dying out," he
said. "Most people want a chance
to participate in the growth of the
country, but the white paper on
welfare will discourage them."
As far as increased costs of
government are concerned, Mr.
Horner pointed out that the
average person today spends
about four months of the year
working to pay the government,
and only eight months for
themselves. He pointed out that if
people were to become better
educated, they should be able to
learn more about each other and
in turn should be able to get along
with less government control.
"If taxes become too high, we
create more unrest," the speaker
added. "And with more unrest we
have more problems controlling
our society."
In summing up his talk, Mr.
Homer said "we want to protect
democracy, and we want to see
government spending less money,
and more wisely."
Mr. Horner was introduced to
the gathering by Robert E.
McKinley, MP for Huron, and
thanked by Mrs. Mae Mooney, of
Goderich.
In a brief address to the
meeting, Mr. McKinley said that
negotiations for the future of
CFB Clinton looked promising at
the present time. He added that
the Department of Transport has
carried out a survey on the base to
see what use could be made of it.
Also, he added, officials of
Conestoga College had visited the
base to see what facilities they
might be able to make use of.
Mr. McKinley also introduced
two other colleagues of his who
attended the meeting. They were
Harry Moore, of Wetaskiwin,
Alberta, and Don Manzankowski,
of Biggarville, Alberta.
Greetings from the town of
Clinton were brought to the
meeting by the mayor, Don
Symons, and Jim Hayter, past
warden of Huron County,
brought greetings from the
county.
