take home one of the largest pieces of fungus found Friday. They were
part of the class trip to Tuckey's sugar bush. While the main intent of
taking the children there was to learn of maple syrup production, they
found a lot of excitement in just finding out about the woods for
themselves. And some of it they took with them. T-A photo

replace a retiring technician at
South Huron High School
Ken Bridges who has been the
audio visual technician at $outh
Huron since before creation of
the county board wishes to retire.
In an earlier brief from SHDHS
it was stated Mr. Bridges would
continue for another year if no
solution to the staff of the Exeter
school could be reached.
The board will allow South
Huron to hire a para-professional
or teacher's aide to fill the
position.
Director of Education D. J,
Cochrane said a person to fill this
position could be included on the
South Huron staff in lieu of a

Asked about procedures used
by other boards, Cochrane
replied, "There are as many
systems as school boards,"
The only high schools in the
county presently having this
audio visial technician service
are at Exeter and Wingham. The
South Huron brief had suggested
the technician service be ex-
tended to include all secondary
schools and the placing of a
technician at Central Huron in
Clinton instead of the board's
administration office.

Exeter's RAP committee
ended up with a deficit in March
again, despite having received a
$5,000 grant from the town.
Expenditures exceeded
revenues by $210.24,
Secretary-treasurer Elizabeth
Varley advised the members that
"we won't have enough money
this month (April) either".
With winter programs nearly
completed and spring projects
not yet underway, RAP has little
revenue coming in during the
month of April.
Looking through the monthly
financial statement, members
questioned the expenditure of
$62,34 for telephone charges at
the recreation office.
Rec director Jim McKinlay
replied that he did a considerable
amount of business by telephone
rather than correspondence.
"That could end up at $1,000 for
the year," commented Bob
Pooley, adding that RAP had not
included a figure of that size in
the budget.
McKinlay said he would set up
a telephone log to keep track of
long distance calls.
RAP members also expressed
the opinion that $92.61 spent for a
ballet party and gifts may have
been high.
However, McKinlay said this
had been a traditional event and
also explained that the ballet
program was one of the few
which actually showed a balance
of receipts over expenditures,

Principal Gary Birmingham of
St. Aloyisius School in Stratford,
who was at the meeting as an

policy on photos. He said he tries
to pick the best quality

gets 10 percent of the moeny from

Dog complaints
in Stephen area
Stephen township continues to
receive complaints from
residents of Huron Park
regarding dogs running at large.
Clerk Wilmar Wein said
Wednesday morning that Huron
Park remains a trouble area as
far as dogs are concerned.
He said Ross Knight, director
of the London Humane Society is
presently preparing costs of
providing an animal control
service for Stephen, Exeter and
other area municipalities.
Knight attended a recent
meeting and agreed to come up
with a proposal to service the
area from London.
As the result of a request from
some ratepayers at the northerly
edge of McGillivray township,
Stephen council will be at-
tempting to provide fire
protection for that area.
Clerk Wein said present plans
were to provide fire protection to
property owners on Concession 10
to 15 in McGillivray for a distance
of two and a half miles in a
southerly direction. He said side
roads would not be included.
The proposal would also have
the Crediton and Huron Park fire
departments on call for certain
lots on the McGillivray north
boundary in the Centralia and
Mt. Carmel areas.
Council accepted an ap-
plication from Lorne Kleinstiver
at part of lot 22, North Boundary
to be included in the new Dash-
wood water system area.

After delivering the four
machines, the men will stay in
Melford for a couple of days,
then return to Exeter. But not in
the same way as they went out.
They will be flying back.
Procedures to be used by
principals who wish to have
classes visit Authority properties

At the conclusion, Exeter
principal James Chapman will
conduct members of the board on
a tour indicating the recently
expanded facilities and
describing further changes which
are planned.
Supplement salaries
The board agreed to sup-
plement salaries of members of
the custodial and secretarial
staffs who are covered by
collective agreement.
These employees will receive
an additional $35 per month for
the duration of the contract. Part-
time employees will also be
covered on a pro-rata basis,
In explaining the move Cayley
Hill said, "This is not an
amendment to the collective
agreement but a board decision
to provide salary supplements in
keeping with economic trends of
the times."
A number of field trips planned
by Huron students were ap-
proved. They include South
Huron and Central Huron
secondary schools and Hullett
Central , Turnberry Central and

GB news
was good
A prediction a week ago by
Grand Bend reeve that the 1974
financial statement for the
village would bring good news
was verified Monday night.
Bill Hipel, representing the
Sarnia auditing firm of R.E.
Holbrook and Partners presented
the official audited report for the
year ending December 31, 1974.
The report shows an ac-
cumulated surplus of $25,466, In
addition to showing this amount
on the black side of the ledger, a
deficit of $25,054 from 1973
operations was also wiped out.
Sharen said earlier he thought
the suplus would be about $35,000.
Hipel explained how the present
surplus was cut by close to $10,000
over the reeve's forecast.
Hipel said, "We wrote off an old
book debt of $9,153. This was
money spent in earlier years
from general funds for capital
projects, This account has been
carried on the books since 1966 or
before."
The statement covering the
Grand Bend water works system
showed a surplus of $19,700 and
the Public Utilities Commission
net income was reported at
$4,587.
Reeve Bob Sharen said he was
very happy with the complete
audited statement. He added,
"It's the best report in many
years. I'm also pleased with the
water works statement. The PUC
took over the water system in
1972 and they have been handling
it in a very business like manner.
