CALL 236-4675 - Authorized by Huron-Middlesex NDP) 411111111111111111111111111k Ask for speed in street restoration LARGEST CLASS — The largest kindergarten class in recent years at Grand Bend Public School are seen being introduced to school life by teacher Gail Overholt on the first day of school Tuesday. T-A photo Works superintendent s Glenn Kells was asked to "get some speed" out of the contractor regarding the condition of streets where new sanitary sewers have been installed. Councillor Ted Wright said he was disappointed in the condition of the streets where work has been undertaken and Councillor Bob Simpson noted several needed attention to Make them passable. An incident was related by Reeve Derry Boyle where a St. Marys man hit a manhole cover with his car. The vehicle was damaged, the driver had a bleeding nose and the man's wife broke the windshield with her head in the mishap. A letter will be sent to a local contractor advising him to clean up several building lots in the Churchill Drive area. Councillor Lossy Fuller relayed the complaint of a citizen in the area over the debris, weeds and mud holes that have existed for the past year. "That's interesting that we should spend so much time on a matter of compassion," com- mented Mayor Shaw after council had debated for some length a grass cutting bill which had been presented to a local pensioner. The bill had been questioned by the ratepayer involved through Councillor Barb Bell. Previous bills for the same party had been forgiven, Mrs. Bell indicated, and she wondered if the same would be done with the $25 fee this time. The discussion ended with a resolution to write off the grass cutting bill, with only Councillor Ted Wright opposing. "You're writing it off for someone else, and not the woman," he stated. During the debate, Councillor Garnet Hicks expressed concern regarding the living conditions of the individual involved and said it was a disgrace that no one appeared to have the authority to move the woman into better surroundings. + + An engineer's report was received from the Township of Stephen indicating Exeter's share of the Centralia Municipal Drain would be $555. + + + Clerk Eric Carscadden was instructed to arrange an ap- pointment for building inspector Doug Triebner and Councillor Harold Patterson with the town's solicitors to discuss whether the town would proceed with a charge against John Tzavaras. The latter had been charged with failing to heed a stop work order on his restaurant several months ago. The solicitors suggested, in view of the work already done on laying the information, that it should procced. Patterson advised council that Triebner was of the opinion that the charge should be dropped. "If the law has been violated, it is ridiculous not to enforce the law," Mayor Shaw commented. + + Council decided to stick with a policy established at the beginning of the year not to make donations to charitable Total enrolment in schools under the jurisdiction of the Huron County Board . of Education on the first day of school Tuesday was down 147 students from the corresponding day in 1974, At Tuesday's regular meeting of the board, director D. J. Cochrane released the figures compiled from information received from principals at noon hour. The number of students at the county's five secondary schools is up from a year ago but elementary students are on the decrease. The high school figure at noon Tuesday was 4,607 up 62 from 1974. Students at the elementary level totalled 7,805. This is a decrease of 209 from last year. The biggest increase at the secondary level appealed at Goderich District Collegiate up to 932 from 890, Attendance at South Huron in Exeter totalled 1,067. Last year it was 1,040. The only other rise in attendance was at Seaforth where enrAment rose 4,1•MINNOIMM organizations because they felt residents could contribute per- sonally if they so wished. The Exeter firemen had solicited assistance for the Muscular Dystrophy fund at Tuesday's meeting. + + + Exeter council may resort to legal action in an attempt to collect delinquent business taxes from some local establishments, Some of the business fees are several years in arrears and amount to sums up to $400 and $700. The suggestion was made that in view of failure to collect the fees through repeated written notices, action be taken in court. However, Deputy-Reeve Tom MacMillan suggested the matter be turned over to the executive committee for a recommendation before further action be taken. A woman who had just given birth to triplets was explaining to a friend that triplets happened only once in 15,000 times. "My goodness!" exclaimed the friend, "How did you find time .to do your housework?" from 401 to 422. Recording decreases in student populationvere Central Huion in Clinton down to 975 from 991 and F.E. Madill in Wingham where the decrease was 12 students down to 1,211, In elementary school circles the largest increases were at Robertson Memorial in Goderich with an increase from 496 to 532 and Colborne Central. The at- tendance rose there from 255 to 275. Other schools showing a rise in enrolment were Brookside, Grey, Hullet, Turnberry and Queen Elizabeth in Goderich. Total enrolment in schools for the trainable retarded is 65, one more than last year. On the decrease side of the ledger, Clinton public school was down to 565 from 603 and Victoria in Goderich was down 35 to 416. Director of Education Cochrane commented that total enrolment was down 991 from 1969 when the Huron board was first established.
