GRAND BEND ENTERTAINMENT Exeter has the largest night School of any small town, Joe Wooden, Prinicipal at South Huron High School said this week, The purpose of night school is to offer opportunities of upgrading, recreation and in- terest related activities to all Members of the community, From the slate of courses of- fered at this year's night sehotil in Exeter, it seems to be fulfilling that obligation, Wooden said that they tried to offer es many courses as the residents were interested in taking and that response to this year's slate had been better than About 75 courses were offered and the choice was made by the number of students registered, for each course. Of the 75 offered there was sufficient interest to carry about 30 courses in the night school program. courses offered include I. Dra• in pond, locate loot recreational subjects such as fitness, judo, modern jazz dance and badminton; academic courses for upgrading, including, consumer. education, .accounting, bookkeeping, English ' law and Reimburse retailer for theft of goods The recent draining of the Morrison dam reservoir enabled police to complete their in- vestigation of an area theft. A $300 coffee machine stolen from W. G. Thompson and Sons in Hensel] was found mired in the mud at the bottom of the reser- voir whenit was emptied to make repairs on the dam. The machine had been stolen last spring. Also found were two wheel rims and a small aluminum boat. The latter was claimed by Gilbert Pratt, Huron Park, who advised police it had sunk two years ago. Salary negotiation starts for Exeter attempts to collect other out- standing amounts. "It's our fault, things shouldn't run this long," John Stephens remarked in reference to the bills from five years ago. German and interest or hobby courses including, caning and furnitere refinishing, oil pain- ting, ceramics, bridge and lingerie sewing, A short course in metrics, offered for a four week period, proved to be one of the most popular with over 75 registered. Because of the response for the course in metrics it had to be offered on three evenings and will be run again for a four week period in January. Women's fitness was also popular with 55 ladies registered for a program of exercise and fitness training and modern jazz dancing attracted 12 students. The caning and furniture refinishing classes were also a favourite and the class had to be divided into two to accommodate all of the interested students, Joe Wooden said that there are new courses and some repeats included for January session. Included on the slate will be two sections of interior design, conversational french, pattern making, baseball fundamentals, flower arranging, and men's knits. Several short courses will be repeated. Mr. Wooden said that if anyone is interested in taking a course that has not been offered they should contact the highschool and let him' know. He said that they will try to provide any course for which there is sufficient interest providing an instructor can be found. The instructors at the night school include teachers from South Huron and others with special skills. Over 540 local residents are taking part in this year's night school program. HIGHWAY 4 at the HURON PARK ROAD RAP decided to pay the bill for the items stolen and then to work out an arrangement with the Kinsmen for sharing part of the cost. They will also investigate their insurance policies to find put if coverage for such thefts is in- cluded, although early indication is that such a theft would not be covered. Rec director Jim McKinley suggested RAP should' draft a rental agreement for use of the arena, pointing out that they do not provide insurance coverage for theft of items from the premises. A Varna area snowmobile dealer will be reimbursed by RAP for the theft of items from his display at the October snowmobile show staged by the Exeter Kinsmen in the local arena. Randy Collins of Hully Gully advised that about $150 in gloves, helmets and other accessories had been taken from his display on the Friday night prior to the event. He noted that he had been assured that the property would be protected by the Kinsmen. Bob Whiteford, who was chairman of the show, told RAP that he remained at the arena until 2:00 a.m, and that the items were stolen between then and when he returned around 9:00 a.m. Arena manager Alvin Willert added that the arena had not been locked on Whiteford's departure because a stag was in progress in the auditorium and the arena staff had difficulty getting some of the card players in attendance to leave. "It appears we're negligent somewhere," stated RAP member Bob Pooley. Zurich has one vacancy Four area youths face theft charges Theft charges have been laid against four area youths as the result of OPP investigations this week. Two were charged in con- nection with the theft of gasoline from a car owned by Ross Par- sons, which was parked at Huron Park. Another two were charged with the theft of money and some beer from the residence of Clare Masse, RR 3 Zurich, while the family was attending a wedding reception. OPP Constables Bill Lewis, Frank Giffin and Dale Lamont were in 'charge of the in- vestigations. While another nomination meeting will be necessary in Zurich to fill the fourth seat on council there is also a possibility of an election for the office of reeve. At the close of nominations Tuesday afternoon two men had been nominated as reeve, and fi Let Us Hear From You! Minor damages in town crashes Only minor damages resulted in two accidents investigated this week by officers of the Exeter police department. Saturday at 1:30 a.m. vehicles driven by Michael McCann, RR 8 Parkhill and Richard Snell, Centralia collided on Main street north. Constable George Robertson set damages at $180. Vehicles driven by Ronald Dickey 502 Carling street, Exeter and Martin Larkin, Parkhill were in collision early. Saturday evening at the corner of Main and Sanders streets, Damages were set at $100 by Constable Joe O'Driscoll. A vehicle owned by Daniel Haugh, 157 Oxford street, London was damaged to the extent of $65 while a parked near the Exeter arena Sunday night. Unknown persons attempted to enter the vehicle by prying both door locks and the passenger door window.

Another nomination will have to take place in the village within 45 days to fill the fourth seat on council. If at that time more than one person is nominated, there would be an election held at a later date. Salary negotiations for town employees will begin this week, although there is some question whether the present council can approve new salaries which would in fact have to be paid by the new council. - Councillor Ted Wright said a municipal solicitor had advised Stratford council they could not approve new salaries at this time because it was an election year. However, it was opined that the present council could negotiate and present the new wage offers as a recommendation to the 1975- 76 council. Indications are that most town employees want improved benefits this year. Works superintendent Glenn Kells said his staff and the RAP employees wanted to meet with council's finance committee to talk about benefits that would be ..uniform for all town employees. At the present time, members of the police department receive greater benefits than those given the works department and RAP The shoe is on the other foot for Exeter's RAP committee this year and they're taking steps to end the pinch. Having budgetted for a deficit of $8,000, RAP last week received a loan of $5,000 from town council to get them through the end of the year. However, even with the loan, members learned it would be difficult to meet expenses to the end of the year. With that in mind, they decided to ask minor hockey and figure skating officials to advance them money for ice rentals to alleviate the pinch. Both groups had agreed to pay for their ice time in three in- stallments, with the first payument due at the end of December. RAP will ask that the first installment be paid as soon as possible. In the past, RAP has handled the finances of both groups and have had their registration monies to work with at the end of each budget year. Now the groups look after their own finances and that money is not available to RAP until ice rentals come due. "It's nice to have the shoe on the other foot," stated minor hockey secretary Bill Batten, who advised that the group would probably, be -willing ,to-eo-operate,w with RAP and pay the ice rental earlier than required to assist RAP out of their financial squeeze. After that discussion, RAP reviewed their accounts receivable to see what funds could be picked up there and found that over $650 was overdue from several businesses for sign rental and also from many organizations who had failed to pay bills for use of the ball diamond in recent years. Some of the bills dated back as far as 1969, RAP will ask council to write off some of the accounts because three of the firms have gone out of business since the bills were incurred.

Ken Doig of Seaforth returned home Sunday after representing Canada in the World Amateur golf championship in the Dominican Republic. The Canadian team finished eighth. A total of 35 countries competed. Other members of the Canadian delegation were Bruce Brewer, Toronto; Dave Rox- borough, Vancouver and Pierre Archambault, Montreal. Doig says it was the toughest course he has ever played on. He added~ "the sand traps were very, very deep and the grass off the fairways was very long." Incinerator still being considered The Town of Seaforth is "still pursuing" the investigation of an incinerator in which to dispose of their garbage rather than using land fill methods. Exeter council had expressed some interest in the project and had written Seaforth to state their interest. There has been a suggestion that if several municipalities are interested in the facility, they may proceed on a cooperative venture to provide an incinerator at a central location to serve all involved.
