"It's stupid to get rid of them" he said, noting that Guenther was knowledgeable in the workings of the arena and recreation program. Reeve Si Simmons followed that line of reasoning, saying that the men would be needed when the rec, centre was com- pleted and they may not be available if they found other jobs. However, a motion to hire Guenther for the works depart- ment was defeated with Ottewell, Bell, Fuller and Wright opposing Simmons, Pfaff and Patterson on the matter. Exeter council decided this week to permanently lay off two former RAP employees and a third will follow when current work is completed this month. John Roelofs and Jim Ghenther will be permanently laid off, while secretary Liz Varley will be hired on a full- time basis during January to complete the accounts and necessary RAP business re- quired by the auditors, She will then be laid off as well. The motion to drop Guenther and Roelofs carried a clause that the two would be rehired when work in the parks or at the new rec centre became available. Alvin Willert will continue to divide his time between recrea- tion work and duties with the public works department. The other RAP employee, recreation director Jim McKinlay is on a temporary layoff, although it has been indicated that his services may be terminated when his 13- week temporary layoff period concludes. Mayor Bruce Shaw had suggested originally, that Guenther be immediately 'added Dissolve RAP Continued from front page While council had the names of four people to appoint as their representatives to the new board, they stopped short of tak- ing this action. Reeve Si Simmons suggested they were getting the cart in front of the horse and recommended that council name a special committee from within their own ranks to meet with representatives from Usborne, Stephen and Hay to work out further details of the program. "It's an extremely com- plicated matter, but we have to start somewhere," Mayor Shaw noted. It was finally agreed that coun- cil would appoint five members from their own ranks to meet with the neighboring municipalities and , prospective board members .to iron out details of the new arrangement. ' Mayor Shaw • was.. given the task of appOinting 'the five Members • and. , named himself along with Councillors Steve Pfaff, Harold Patterson, Lossy Fuller and Ted Wright. It is expected the deliberations will be held this month so some action can be taken at council's next meeting in February. Sorority debate energy situation Alpha Pi members of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority met at the home of Lois Godbolt on January 4.

He said adding staff created a situation where extra work had to be found to use them, and this ate into the budget and could reduce the amount of street work that could be undertaken, "We would be eating into the subsidized part of the budget," he explained and warned council against turning the works department into a "payroll department". Mayor Bruce Shaw said the money could come from that nor- mally spent on recreation. Works superintendent Glenn Kells said work could be found, Councillor Barb Bell was nam- ed Tuesday night as chairman of Exeter council's property com- mittee.. That committee will now have the added responsibility of looking after the local parks, However, those respon- sibilities have not been clearly defined. Councillor Lossy Fuller asked if looking after the parks includ- ed such jobs,as preparing the ball diamonds and Mayor Bruce Shaw replied that areas of responsibility would have to be arbitrarily decided. In a question from Councillor Harold Patterson about who would be working in the parks, Mayor Shaw indicated it would be added to the public works department responsibilities. Reeve Si Simmons will head up R, Gordon Bennett, deputy minister of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, has an- nounced the retirement of two senior agricultural represen- tatives and their replacements.

The next regular meeting to be held January 10. but heexplained that the other staff members had to be employed throughout the year and money spent in the spring on extra staff depleted the budget for fall work. He also said that if extra ser- vice was provided by additional staff, then 'residents would ex- pect the extra service to con- tinue in the future. "People demand a service once they've had it," he noted. "If it's a make-work scheme, I'm not in favor of it," Councillor Barb Bell remarked, Newcomer Steve Pfaff said that he couldn't see the wisdom in laying off experienced recrea- tion and arena personnel whey the busiest committee of council — public works.

Both appointments are ef- fective January 3, 1977. Exeter council basically became responsible for recreation in the community when they dissolved the RAP committee this week and it didn't take long for them to get involved in some of the problems RAP had experienced in the past. Gaylan Josephson attended Tuesday's inaugural meeting to request an $800 grant on behalf of the Exeter Figure Skating club. He noted that most com- munities subsidize minor sports and suggested that Exeter should do the same, The club president said his group was experiencing financial problems due to increased ice costs at Hensel' and Huron Park arenas as well as reduced enrolment. It was explained that the problem was magnified because the club had to pay for their ice time in advance, while in the past they could usually count on this March carnival to provide some money to reduce their debts. On questioning from council, Josephson .aid the club would probably be out of money by early February. In reply to a question from Councillor Ken. Ottewell, Josephson said that even with the planned carnival in March, the club would still be in the red by $500 or $600. Reeve Si Simmons said he realized the minor sports groups had problems, but said he didn't think council should bail out Former Huron rep moves to Wellington ding committees was the sub- division'and land use committee. Councillors and private citizens were also named to a number of other boards and the makeup of these is now as follows: Planning board — Harvey Pfaff, Bev Read, Wally Burton, Dennis Hockey, Mayor Shaw and Councillor Ken Ottewell. Committee of adjustment — Bob Russell, Jack Delbridge and Dr. Gary Balsdon.

Building inspector liaison —, Harold Patterson. Parking authority — Bill Batten and Bob Fletcher. The third member was not named as Mayor Shaw said he had been un- able to contact sitting member Jim Hennessey regarding a re- appointment. everyone every time they were in trouble. He said the matter should be reviewed by the recreation committee, but he was reminded that body had been dissolved earlier in the meeting by council. It was finally decided to table the request until the February meeting in the hope that the new South Huron Recreation Centre board would be formed by that time and some idea would be evident as to how recreation would be administered in Exeter. Later at Tuesday's meeting, Councillor Ken Ottewell asked council to consider building some type of outdoor ice pad for local youngsters this winter. He said in Goderich the tennis courts were flooded for this purpose and he opined the same could be done here. Ottewell said some local kids were using the ice at Riverview Park, but noting that ice con- ditions were uncertain, suggested this could lead to a tragedy, Reeve Si Simmons, who said he has been the official ice checker for years, replied that there was six inches of ice on the river last time he checked. Councillor Lossy Fuller and Simmons both indicated that the ponds available in the coma munity were used only for a few times and then abandoned by youngsters. The matter of an outdoor rink was then dropped, Interim ',sec group' faces first problem
