Boyle said an outdoor rink operated some years ago by the local Lions proved unsuccessful, so he thought the morning skating sessions may provide an alter- nate solution. The times were left for arena manager Alvin Willer t to arrange. Safe Driving Week in this area ended on much the same note as it started — badly. The Exeter ORP investigated 10 accidents during the past week, the major portion of those occurring during the week set aside annually in which drivers are asked to drive extra cautiously. In this .area, statistics for the week show it didn't have that effect. The rash of crashes this week started out with a minor collision on Wednesday at 2:15 p.m., when a car driven by Paul McInnis, RR 3, Dashwood, collided with a highway sign at the corner of Highway 4 and the Crediton Hay plans to stop dogs Hay township has finalized a bylaw which will provide for the registration of all dogs and the payment of a licence fee for every owner. The new legislation will also prevent dogs from running at large in the municipality. The licence rate schedule which has been adopted is as follows: for one male dog or spayed female, $4 per year; each additional male or spayed female owned by the same person or kept in the same household, $8 per year; a female dog, $8 per year and each additional female owned by the same person or kept in the same household, $12 per year. In addition a rate of $16 per dog has been established for all dogs exceeding two owned by the same person or kept in the same household. The fee for a kennel licence will be $25. The Rader-Hoffman Municipal Drain bylaw was given third reading and passed. The land severance application from Mrs. Thelma Thiel, just east of the Zurich village limits was approved. A request from the Huron Board of Education for school tax payments twice a year on June 30 and December 15 was given approval.

As the period of em- ployment lengthens, the qualifications would become more severe. In order to obtain unem- ployment insurance all em- ployees must be registered with Manpower and be ready, able and willing to accept a position within reason. If a person finds suitable employment outside of reasonable driving distance, Canada Manpower will pay for complete movement of fur- nishings, provide an establish- ment grant and a house purchase entitlement if necessary. UAW representative Robert Nickerson said pressures were being put on auto companies. He added, "we hopefully will get holiday and severance pay." Nickerson said if the plant reopened employees would return on a seniority basis. He said after the meeting that if and when the plant is reac- tivated those employees not yet recalled would be entitled to severance pay after the 13 week period. Employees were told their OHIP premiums were paid by the company up until the end of March. The sickness and ac- cident policy was a different story with Hall not making the necessary payments. Nickerson said under the union contract, the company was obliged 'to make these payments.

Seek rec director — Continued from Page I recommendations considered, RAP agreed last week to institute a sub-committee system in the new year. The investigating committee had considered this high on their list of priorities to bring about more efficient meetings and more efficient use of members' time. RAP employees were in- structed to give out receipts on all transactions commencing im- mediately. The investigating committee had been particularly critical of some of the bookkeeping methods being employed by RAP and the issuance of receipts was one of several suggestions made to keep tighter control of finances. Another was that of keeping an accurate count of supplies at the arena snack bar and RAP has decreed that as of January 1, stock-taking will take place at the snack bar and a "float system" will be initiated. RAP has also ruled that no bills for any organizations under its direction will be paid until such time as the bills have been ap- proved by the organization in question. 4111 Ii,, I Ae Con'tkaded from Page each one per cent rise in the in- dex.
