T-A photo Set priorities for paving Say radio operators helped stop 'vandals That deficit altered again The only thing certain about the Exeter RAP budget for this year is that it is going to be in a deficit position, The amount of the deficity changes frequently and this week it was estimated at $15,600 by newly elected chairman. Ruth Durand, Mrs, Durand was named to that position to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Jack Underwood and one of her first duties was to appear before council to request a further grant of $5,000 to keep RAP in operation. She explained that the estimated amount of the deficit for the current year has been changed several times, but it now appears it will be around the $15,000 mark. That includes the repayment of $5,000 to council for the deficit incurred in 1974 as well, The new RAP chairman said she hoped the request would be the final one of the year as it was expected revenues from the arena would meet the balance of this year's expenses, Reeve Derry Boyle, noting it was "much against my will" voted that the additional $5,000 grant be made. Ironically, Boyle is finance chairman of RAP. "It's an unhappy situation, but we've got it," Deputy-Reeve Tom MacMillan added in seconding the motion, which was approved. Lady crashes Exeter bridge Only one accident was in- vestigated by the Exeter police this week. A car driven by Gwendoline Norris, Port Stanley, collided with the bridge on Main St. at 10:10 a.m., Sunday. The driver had been proceeding south when the accident occurred. Constable George Robertson investigated and listed total damage at $1,400. The driver was unhurt. Two thefts are under in- vestigation. A battery was taken from a truck owned by Tuckey Beverages Ltd. and two hub caps were stolen from a car owned by Ross Tuckey, 343 Andrew St. Lease approved for new offices One of the important items of business discussed at Exeter council's second meeting in the new administration building, Monday, was the fact that it now appears certain that they will be able to lease the building from the department of public works. Huron Middlesex MP Robert McKinley advised Councillor Barb Bell prior to the session that the lease agreement had passed treasury board and privy council this week and it was now on its way back to Toronto for final approval. The news came as some relief for council members, because they have spent $30,000 to date in renovating the former post office. The contractor presented a request at Monday's meeting for a further $5,000 payment on the contract, but council decided that some deficiencies had to be corrected prior to payment and also that the material for the ceiling in the council chambers would have to be delivered to the site. When that is done, the money will be approved for payment. Council will still hold back $2,000. Councillor Garnet Hicks suggested the hold-back time be one year. Approved for payment in the accounts was $4,244.57 for new furniture and equipment for the building, This was supplied by Jerry Mathers Typewriters, Exeter. At the suggstion of Deputy- Reeve Tom MacMillan, the old office equipment at the present clerk's office will be put up for sale through public auction, The roads and drains com- mittee of Exeter council this MILDRED M.

Hunt of Dundas St. Centennial United Church officiated Interment in Mount Pleasant cemetery. Chairman Ted Wright ex- plained that most of the work would be undertaken in the core area, He said this would make for easier maintenance as all the paved roads would be in one area, Some of the priorities listed for the coming year were: Andrew St., from Gidley to John (final coat), Sanders St. East from Andrew to Pryde, Huron St. East from Edward to the town limits; Andrew St., from John to Huron. The latter will be totally reconstructed next year. If money is available, further paving programs will be carried out on Victoria St. West, William St. from Sanders to Gidley, Gidley from Main to William, William St. from Sanders to Huron (second coat), John St. from Main to William, Wellington St. East from Main to Andrew. Wright explained that much of the street reconstruction had taken place on the east side of town over the past three years and it was only fair that the west side now be given some con- sideration, Mayor Bruce Shaw com- mended the committee for their report, adding that the projects indicated that "we're beginning to see the end of things." The committee also made a recommendation that council plan to extend Alexander St. through to Rosemount. They urged that council have the land appraised and that the industrial owners of the land be offered a fair value, but if the offer is declined, expropriation should be undertaken. Wright said it was a hard decision and predicted it would possibly not be a popular decision with some of the land owners, but he noted the committee felt that with development taking place, a decision had to be made on the access to the area behind the industries on Highway 83 East. Council have been deliberating for more than a year on the subject and several of the in- dustries have indicated they disapprove of opening Alexander St. because it would create security problems for them as well as making it impossible to consider additions to their buildings. Wright suggested council members give some serious TWO FIRE CALLS The Exeter fire department answered two calls, Friday. Just before noon, a bush fire on the property of Gib Dow was fanned out of control by wind. It was quickly quelled. In the afternoon, a clothes dryer at the residence of Coun- cillor Harold Patterson caught fire. The machine was damaged and the Huron Street home sustained some smoke damage. LISTS REGULATIONS In answer to several queries from local residents, Chief Ted Day this week outlined the regulations under the Highway Traffic Act as they pertain to persons opening car doors when bicycle riders are approaching. The regulations are as follows: 1. No person shall open a door of a motor vehicle without first taking due precaution to ensure that his act will not interfere with the movement of, or endanger any other person or vehicle. 2. No person shall leave a door of a motor vehicle on a highway open on the side of the vehicle available to moving traffic, for a period of time longer than is necessary to load or unload a passenger. 110•••110111, "Your Family Health Centre" Exeter Police Chief Ted Day has commended the Exeter React group for helping keep problems to a minimum over Halloween, Day told council Monday that eight members of the club operated in four cars and used their citizen band radios to keep police informed of areas where groups of youths appeared to be gathering. The police were then able to prevent any problems from arising, The only damage reported to police was at Pryde Memorials, where some stones were tipped over. While Halloween was very quiet, the report for the entire month showed that the police were again busy. Statistics given by Chief Day were as follows: 11 accidents with damage of $3,635, 48 charges and 63 warnings under the High- way Traffic Act, 22 charges under the Liquor Control Act, 14 parking tickets issued, two places of business found insecure, 13 animal complaints, two assault investigations, two trespass incidents, seven thefts with a total loot of $344 of which $140 was recovered, one break and enter with less than $50 stolen, two wilful damage complaints with loss of $25, three fraud in- vestigations, one disturbance. Several charges were laid as a Letter of appreciation Exeter council received a "one in a million" letter this week. Linda Linfield told council that she had complained about dust on Andrew St., for some time, but now that the reconstruction and paving had been completed she wanted to thank them heartily. The local resident said the appearance of the street had been dramatically improved and the dust problem eradicated. After members recovered from the shock of receiving a letter of thanks, Mayor Bruce Shaw said it was rather ironic, but the Lin- field's are moving from town. "Can you get us the cost of having it (the letter) framed?" Deputy-Reeve Tom MacMillan asked of Clerk Eric Carscadden. The latter noted that the fact Mrs. Linfield's father is a municipal clerk may explain in part her courtesy in sending a thank you to council for their efforts. consideration to the recom- mendation for debate at a further time. Councillor Bob Simpson, co- chairman of the roads and drains committee, also advised council that the completion of drains and sanitary sewers for the north west and south west sections of town would be given priorities for 1976.

A tentative meeting has been called by the planning board for Monday evening. Members of council have been invited to attend as observers at the session.

Two injured in collision Only two accidents were in- vestigated by the Exeter OPP this week, but two men were injured in one of them. At 8:00 a.m. Saturday, a vehicle operated by Geraraus Vissers, RR 2, Dorchester, went out of control while proceeding north on Highway 4, and went into the west ditch, rolled over several times and came to rest on its side, The driver sustained cuts and bruises in the incident, as did a passenger Donald Droughton, London.
