It was also suggested that numbers should have letters depicting the area of the town such as 100E, (east), 100N north t. etc. More importantly, the com- mittee said all houses should have ,nnmberS. The lack of numbers on some houses at the present is one of the major problems which prompted council to ask for the study. The committee went on to add that. more consistency could be achieved by concentrating on corner houses so those facing the same direction and laterally opposite as the street runs would have the same numbers. Once this is accomplished, all houses between the corners could he given an equal differential. Under this plan, a large number of homes would acquire new numbers. • A third alternative offered, was to completely change the system, keeping only the starting points the same. The new plan would be to number houses alternately to through streets, in hundred blocks. At the first through street from the starting point, the numbers would change to 100, and in the second block they would he in the 200 range, and so forth. Under this system, all existing house numbers would change. This system could still leave large gaps with the last house in one block possibly being 125S with the first home in the next block being 201S. To better familiarize the citizens and visitors with any of the proposed systems, the committee recommended that large maps be placed on the outskirts and also that street signs carry indications of the numbers within the block. "It is the request of the com- mittee that whatever the out- come of this report, the citizens of the town be notified of council's decision in proper advance of any changes in the present house numbers. Hockey also read a letter to council from the Exeter Kin- smen, stating they would be willing to assist in making any changes or preparing one of the new alternatives to the house numbering system. Members of council expressed commendation to the committee for their comprehensive report and agreed to enlist the Kinsmen to assist on whatever plan is followed. "I guarantee you we will come to a decision by this fall and start work on it," Mayor Bruce Shaw told the committee, which in- cludes Hockey, Carol Arthur, Olga Davis and Iry Armstrong.

Alex Farquhar of First St. Andrew's United Church, London, Thursday, June 1;, Unit 2 meet at the chtirch 8;45 to go to Blue Water Rest Home for their Meeting, A display of mobile homes in the vicinity of Peace Lutheran Church at the corner of Andrew and George Streets was ordered moved this week by Exeter council. Their action followed com- plaints by four area residents who complained of the mobile homes being set up in the vicinity of their homes by Len Veri. Veri had received permission to set up the mobile homes for display purposes on his own property in the area, but council agreed that he should not be allowed to have them on the site which he actually chose. Carol Amos also questioned why council would permit him to operate a business in a residential area. She noted the mobile homes had been set up as display units for sales purposes. The residents also complained that a pipe had been hooked up above ground between one of the mobile homes and the church to carry sewage. "We've been had," commented Reeve Derry Boyle, saying he thought the display units were to be set up in Veri's proposed mobile home park. However, a motion Approved by council on May 5, which had been seconded by Boyle, called for the homes to be allowed on Veri's proposed standard home subdivision which will serve as a buffer zone between the mobile home park and existing homes in the area. Mayor Shaw said he un- derstood the homes were to be on display only for the summer, but Mrs. Amos noted shrubs and sod had been planted in the area. Council agreed to advise Veri to "immediately" have the units removed to his subdivision property to conform to the motion of May 5, Councillor Barb Bell also questioned if he should he allowed to hook a sewage line into the church. The four residents, who in- cluded Lawrence and Carol Amos, Gerry Smith and Larry Black, also wondered if Veri would be allowed to have double- wide modular units in his sub- division, They said they had only agreed to the mobile home park because they had been told the buffer subdivision would house standard type housing units. Members of council said they thought this was to be the case, but did explain they could Claim town not negligent Adjusters for Exeter's in- surance company have told home owners there was no indication of negligence on the town's part in the flooding of their basements during the heavy rain in May. Jack Underwood and Gaylan Josephson had submitted claims for items damaged when sewer water backed into their Pryde Boulevard homes. Council learned that Under- wood had replied to the letter from the adjusters, asking when their investigation of the situation had been conducted and what those findings were. At Monday night's meeting, council received a claim from Ron Walper, also of Pryde, for $487.30 in damages in the same storm. It too was turned over to the insurance company. OPP investigate five area thefts Five thefts are being in- vestigated by the Exeter OPP this week. Approximately $950 worth of liquid weed spray was stolen from Hensall District Co-Op. The theft was reported Thursday morning. Earlier in the week, $307 in cash was taken from Huron Tractor Ltd. in Exeter. Four juveniles have been charged as a result of police investigation into the theft of 167 bicycle tire tubes from Dunlop Tire at Huron Park. The stolen property was recovered. The other thefts involved a bicycle owned by Donna Desjardine, Stephen Township and a liquid compass from a boat owned by Stanley W. Smith, Hay Township. The latter was valued at $80, As the result of a recom- mendation from the education committee of the Huron County Board of Education, a school health co-ordinating committee will be formed in Huron. Mrs. Molly Kt rider, chairman of the education committee told board members Monday that the new health committee would include three members from. the board of education, three from the I turon Board of Health along. with Dr. F.J. Mills, Huron's Medical Officer of Health and D.J. Cochrane, director of education. Formation of the health committee came about as the result of a request from the Huron Board of Health as recommended in the report of the Provincial task Force on School Health Services, At a joint meeting held May 20, Dr. Mills said, "our board of health thinks this is a good idea and should be developed," At that. time Dr. Mills suggested the new committee be made up of people concerned with education and health of students. He added; "It should represent parents along with medical and education groups." Huron trustee Charlie Thomas said, "I'm in favour of this .committee but it would be too large. Seems more like public relations than a policy making group." Huron warden Anson McKinley agreed with Thomas saying, "j think the committee is a good idea but policy should be set by representatives of the two boards. Experts can be called in at particular points when any help is needed." McKinley continued, "I've been concerned with the avenues of communication between the boards of health and education and this is a good start." Al the same time, trustees approved increases for its six driver education instructors and for a seventh instructor hired on a contract basis. Instructors who are board employees will receive an in- crease to $55 from $44 per student for in-car instruction and a hike from $8 to $10 for in-class in- struction during the 1975-76 school year. Instruction fees paid by students were increased from $20 to $25 per person. probably not prevent modular homes from being placed in the regular subdivision. Mr. Black said he thought the buffer zone should house con- ventional homes. "We'll do our best to protect your interests," Mayor Shaw told the delegation before they left the meeting.
