It's also recognized that at the time of survey distribution, some areas were not advanced sufficiently to take a kernel count and that some areas thought to be free of damage may prove otherwise once harvest starts. However, according to the answers given, we have marked the areas affected on the at- tached map and the area is no doubt larger than earlier an- ticipated. North Kent, a large area of Lambton, part of Mid- dlesex, Elgin, Norfolk and. Huron seem to have been the hardest hit, Since no official estimate of winterkill or spring water damage has been made, allowance was made for a nominal 5 percent reduction for this factor in order to determine acreage left for harvest. So this is the way our latest analysis ap- pears including frost damage allowance. Exeter merchants are staging their annual sidewalk sale this weekend, although for a time there appeared to be some doubt whether the Main St. could be closed off, Council learned that a bylaw wasnowrequired and should have been presented to the ministry of transportation and com- munications six weeks ago for approval. However, they were advised by the Stratford branch they would do everything they could to push the approval in time for this weekend and the bylaw was approved — with some opposition — at a special meeting, Friday, At that time, some members of council thought traffic was too heavy on Friday nights to close the street and in addition, previous detours had brought — Continued from Front Page produced a deed of Spindrift properties drawn up in 1961 when the land was purchased. At that time he also had in his possession a copy of a ruling made by Lambton County Court Judge Roland Carscallen. It read in part, "good title has been shown in the vendor to the said lands." Lower Dock Rates Rates for boat docking village docks in Grand Bend have been reduced for the balance of this year. At a council meeting, a couple of weeks ago councillor David Jackson was authorized to check rental rates at nearby resort areas and bring Grand Bend's in line. The number of visiting boats at Grand Bend this year has been reduced considerably. An American boater, Gilbert Leas of Detroit told council Monday night Grand Bend had been blacklisted by many American yacht clubs because of the high dockage rates. Leas said he and other American boaters would again try to bring business back to The Bend with the decrease in rates which are not quite similar to most areas. The rates now in effect are $2.50 per day or $150 for the season for boats of up to 25 feet in length. From 25 to 35 feet the daily charge is $3 and $175 by the season. Owners of boats longer than 35 feet will pay $3.50 per day and $200 a season. Discuss Erosion A special meeting is being held tonight Thursday to discuss the subject of erosion control in Grand Bend with Ausable- Bayfield River Conservation Authority Resources manager Roger Martin and other of- ficials, The Authority through its engineers have estimated Grand Bend's share of the cost of the work proposed at $17,000, A decision must be made by July 31 for the amount of erosion control to be undertaken in 1973. When told the cost would be $17,000 councillor Murray Des Jardins said, "about $17 worth of Only 66 pass safety inspection Only 66 vehicles of 333 checked by the Ontario Department of Transportation and Com - m un i ca tions safety lanes in Exeter last week received safety stickers on their first visit. A total of 215 vehicles were rejected and asked to return after minor repairs were made, Of this amount 48 were re-ehecked and given approval for the road. Another four vehicles were rejected the second time and licences were removed from eight vehicles declared unfit for the road by the safety inspector. Exeter police chief Ted Day said, "I think the safety cheek served its purpose. People found out what was wrong with their Vehicles." complaints from hospital staff and patients. They were told the merchants could not stage the event without having the street closed as it would be too dangerous with the sidewalk displays forcing people to walk on the street. The bylaw was passed and delivered to Stratford Monday morning, but officials there discovered later the wrong wording had been used. The bylaw was returned Monday night by a messenger and council rescinded it and then approved one with the proper wording. The messenger took it back to Stratford and it was to be delivered for approval Tuesday. Reeve Derry Boyle was the subject of some good-natured ribbing from his fellow members over the entire situation. His wife shrubbery would do just as well." Councillor Paul Panet, chairman of the finance com- mittee reported a good return of 1972 taxes as of June 30. Of the total tax roll of $223,605, which includes payments due in the fall, an amount in excess of $105,000 has already been received. Panet also reported an in- crease in tax arrears payments this year. In the first six months ;this year $25,479 has been collected in arrears as compared to $19,504 a year ago. In reply to a letter to the Ontario Department of Tran- sportation and Communications asking for advice on speed deterrents on Oak Street, council was told rumble strips as suggested were the last resort. is the chairman of the committee in charge and she had asked him to look after the road closing details. He forgot to mention it to council, necessitating the special meeting. To top it all off, he then forgot to attend the special meeting himself. Entertaining In addition to the "bargains galore from every store," the sidewalk days will feature en- tertainment again this year. Usborne native Earl Heywood, best known for his singing, will perform his popular magical acts at three shows on Saturday. The Gospel Caravaners,com- prising about 15 youths, will also perform throughout the two days from their travelling stage. They arrived in the area Monday night and went to Grand Bend for shows on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and will return here for Friday and Saturday, In addition, they will be a featured at the first of the summer Drive-In Church ser- vices organized by the Exeter Pentecostal Tabernacle for the parking lot at Northlander Mobile Homes on Highway 83, East, Sunday. Popular youth evangelist Dave Johnston leads the Gospel Cara- yaners who have been pleasing audiences across the province with their modern gospel music sounds. Area artists and craftsmen =lave again been asked to put on displays of their techniques and several church groups will have baking booths on the street this weekend. Some of the bargains being offered by local merchants ap pear in this issue. ••,Y GERRIT PETER BRAN DERHORST Gerrit Peter Branderhorst, RR 3, Granton, formerly of Hensall, died at St. Joseph's Hospital London July 11, 1972 in his 82nd year.
