As a result of that negotiations did not continue and the Huron taxpayer is still paying 50 percent While the past summer has been a financial problem for Exeter's RAP committee, the programs have been better than ever according to recreation director Jim McKinley. He reported an "incredible rate" in the passing percentage either amalgamate and form a large regional health unit or pay the price for wanting ' local autonomy. Because Huron hag not given in to this pressure, you and I as Thursday skating time will be advanced to 7:00 p.m. McKinlay said the costs would be reduced 25 percent and he didn't anticipate any overall attendance drop by eliminating one night. The local swim team and rec softball seasons were termed successful as was the soap box derby. The latter will definitely be an annual event, with this year's participation being doubled that of 1974. McKinlay said entries may be charged a nominal fee to help cover the small costs involved. Saturday's bike rodeo at- tracted only eight participants, but "those there had a good time." It will attempted again next year to see if it will be any more successful. The Well-Come-Inn opens its season this week with a Friday night euchre, The rec head said some personality problems exist within the organization and he plans to spend some time there in the next few weeks to help the group of senior citizens straighten out their problems "or they'll be on the rocks". He said there was plenty of potential within the group to make it successful in their Scout Hall activities. During a visit of Ontario Liberal leader Robert Nixon to Huron, Monday Jack Riddell, Liberal candidate in the HUron- Middlesex riding told supporters that regional government was still an issue in the riding. Speaking at the Pineridge Chalet, near Hensall, at a beef barbecue attended by close to 2,300 persons Riddell said, "The present government has post- poned efforts for having regional restructuring in this area because of the unpopularity with the voters but regional govern- ment is still being forced on us in a more insiduous way." He continued, "At the present time the Huron Board of Health receives a provincial subsidy of 50 percent. We have been told that if we amalgamated with another Health Unit we could obtain a 75 percent subsidy. Discussions were held with Perth County and while this was going on Perth County, the city of Stratford and the town of St. Greg Pfaff Continued from front page ground is very hard to walk on. Also visited was a native village with most houses of the prefabricated variety. Stops were also made at a Hudson's Bay store and the post office where mail arrived three times a week. Greg did see one familiar sight in the north. It was a Northlander mobile home manufactured in Exeter by Custom Trailers. The cadets lived on individual ration packs which consisted of dehydrated foods. During the two weeks stay at Resolute Bay they made two trips to the Resolute Air Hotel for hot meals. Part of the certificate received by Greg and the other cadets reads as follows: "During this period of northern training and operation in the High Arctic, this adventurous serviceman displayed all the instincts of the northern hunter to endure bitter cold, sustain life, avoid tent eye and practice good navigational techniques." Greg will be back to weekly training sessions with the Mid- dlesex Huron cadets. Sessions are held each Thursday night at 7 p.m. at the Huron Park recreation centre. of the Board of Health costs while in Perth and other amalgamated counties the government .con- tributed 75 percent. In other words, the government is saying to the people of Huron for youngsters taking swim lessons. There were 76.8 percent passed from those taking tests, an improvement of 10 percent over last year, which in itself was said to be an excepional year. A total of 848 took instruction at the pool, an increase 'of 97. The summer playground "showed greater strides than any other summer programs," Mcrmlay said it was an educational program and not merely a baby-sitting service and many parents had their eyes opened to this fact. A total of 91 youngsters' participated. Youth-In-Action officials listed the local program as one of the better ones in which they were involved. McKinlay said he was "moderately pleased" with the tennis program. Seventy-eight people took lessons and 45-50 have joined the local club. Only one case of major van- dalism was reported despite the fact the courts were not locked. Someone cut the net with a knife one evening during the summer. Roller skating has attracted total admissions of 4,600 over the season, with revenue of $4,200, For the balance of the season, Monday night skating will be dropped and the Tuesday and SS enrolment Continued from, front page September 24-26. St. Michael's School in Strat- ford will be used for the COR weekend again from October 9 to 11. Stratford trustee Howard Shantz presented the board with a survey he made of the total number of homes, semi-detached homes and town housing units being planned for each area of Stratford and how it would effect enrolment at the present separate schools, and indicated possible future requirements of additions or new schools. Plans are being made for the official opening of the new board office located in the former continuation school and convent in Dublin. The administrative staff moved to the new quarters August 29. The date for the opening has not been set. The board meeting which commenced at 8 p.m, was in committee-of-the-whole until 9:40 p.m. when the regular meeting was held, When the regular meeting was adjourned shortly after 11 p.m, The trustees con- tinued the meeting as a com- mittee-of-the-whole. CORRECTION Last week's report on county restructuring in Huron in- correctly named the Stephen Township deputy-reeve. For all those who wondered if deputy- reeve Ken Campbell had retired from municipal politics, he has not, we just got our politicians confused. - - "They say you can judge a girl by the clothes she wears. What do you think of that blonde over there?" "Insufficient evidence." taVayers W1/1 pay Additional $125,000 from local revenue in 1975 that would have been received as a provincial grant had we regionalized." Riddell went on to say that family planning grants have been made to Boards of Health in large metropolitan municipalities but not to Huron. The Liberal candidate touched briefly on the subject of Super Ministries, the public relations budget and the quality of education. On education, he said, "as a former high school teacher let me make it quite clear that I am not critical of the teaching profession which I consider dedicated and well qualified. What I am con- demning are the Davis educational experiments which continue to lower educational standards across this province. Who can say that quality of education is not an issue when universities are forced to in- stitute classes in remedial reading and arithmetic in order to accept students." During his brief 45 minute stay in Hensall, Liberal leader Robert Nixon spoke briefly and said, "a Liberal government can get Ontario moving again. Our plans to get houses built, to help the farmers and to fight inflation that hurts manufacturers and retailers are outlined in our booklet of "Priorities." Correctly identify old river bridge There have been some changes in the bridge over the river on Exeter's Main St. through the years, but three local residents managed to win prizes for correctly identifying the former bridge in the Wot-Iz-It? contest. This week's correct answers were supplied by Donna Prout, RR 1 Centralia; Mrs. John Oke, RR 3, Exeter; and Donald Kenney, RR 2, Crediton. Each receives a Wintario ticket. The bridge structure pictured in last week's contest served for many years, before suddenly collapsing. The date of the photo, wasn't known, but it was before the commercial and residential development boomed north of the bridge. Water line too costly? At Tuesdays meeting of McGillivray Township council the possibility of a waterline to land owners on concession 6 and 7 east of highway 81 was discussed. The line would come off the Parkhill line. No decisions were made but it was thought the project would be too costly. A drain report on the Canada Company Drain South was discussed and given first and second reading. A tile loan debenture in the amount of $57,100 was issued. Council declared September 19 a holiday for the Parkhill Fair. The purchase of a truck, plow and wing from Bluewater Truck Centre was authorized subject to the usual approvals. The truck will be used for general purposes and snow plowing.
