Canadiana CID The County Board of Health has acknowledged the need for non-smoking areas in public places and urges the immediate designation of such areas, Noting that 58 percent of the population are non-smokers, the board says there is growing pressure for "legislation and governmental directive" to designate non-smoking areas in airplanes, restaurants, stores and other public places. Government legislation passed in the United States provides for summary fines of five dollars to $25 for smoking in such areas, it was pointed out. The board also proposed a joint from Parisian French which is studied in university by the language majors, Trustee Shirley Hazlitt questioned the benefits of star- ting French at the grade one level. Trustee Bob Allan replied, saying, that the ministry had done a fair amount of research on this and had no definite con- clusions.

Several councillors voiced objections to the idea of a joint health unit, Reeve William Elston of Morris Township told the board he is disappointed more money is not spent making the Huron Health Unit work better instead of studying a joint committee. He likes the idea of the Health Unit being controlled by the county, he said, and feels a joint unit is unnecessary. • • • ••••••••••••••••••••••••• •• •••••••••••-"'•'-'•:•••••••••••••••••• The Clinton Christian Refor- med Choir provided special musical numbers for the Sunday evening song service at Huronview, The service was led by Dick Roorda. Al De Haan directed and accompanied the 35 voice choir. The residents look forward to this yearly visit by the choir and enjoyed it very much. Marie Flynn and Norman Speir entertained on Monday afternoon with Old Tyme Music for the dancing and led the sing-a-long of favourite songs. The Christian Reformed volunteers assisted with the activities. The University of Windsor school of music presented the Chamber hour for the family night program. The twenty-voice choir along with the conductor, Richard Householder, are touring Western Ontario this week and we appreciate that Huronview was included in their itinerary. The concert included several numbers by the chorus and a quartette number by Marg Morgan, Gail Stoneman, Vicki Godden and Ian Lestein. The Huron County Board of Education will be receiving a grant of $1,000 from the Ministry of Education to be used in the conversion of a vacant classroom into a french learning centre. The experiment is the first step in the improvement and ex- pansion of teaching French as a second language on in Ontario schools. The board in their regular meeting on May 2 decided to transform one elementary classroom into a learning centre to see how it worked. There was some discussion as to whether the students are receiving enough education in French. At the present time, French is being taught in public school from'grades three to eight, for 20 minute periods. Trustee John Elliott said, "The French program in the elementary schools is good on oral French. However once in high school there is a large number of students who drop the French program, because it's more history and written French, which reflects on the old coun- try's French, not Canadian." He suggested that the French program should come closer to Canadian content, not Parisian and he would like to see it on the obligatory list as a Canadian study. Chairman John Cochrane pointed out that this may take language minded students away Ask non-smoking areas for public places Times-Advocate, May 5, 1977 Page 19 Stanley rec committee sets park rates The April meeting of the Stanley Township Recreation Committee was held on Wed- nesday evening, April 27, with eight members and softball co- ordinator Ross Whittaker present. It was agreed that the rent to be charged to teams outside Stanley Township using the ball park be set at $5.00 and $10.00 for use of park and lights, Other business concerning the ball park — Gerald 1-layter reported that Lavis Contracting was going to roll the grass at the diamond. Ross Whittaker volunteered to purchase a padlock to put on the electrical panel for the ball park lights. Several area contractors will be contacted to price construction of a building at the park, and the men plan to get together and do some repair work on the bleachers before ball season starts. Ross Whittaker reported that 63 people had registered for softball this season. Teams have been set up as follows — girls age 9.13, girls age 14-16, and boys age 9-13, boys age 14-16, as well as a ladies team. If you neglected to mail your registration form it isn't too late. They will still be accepted up to May 14, Ross said he could still use a few more players on each team, so don't delay. Watch this column next month to see when your team practices will be held. The men had their first slow- pitch practice on Sunday, May If you want to play but weren't able to get out Sunday, call Doug McAsh and let him know you are interested. Some people have offered to coach the boys' and girls' teams, but more volunteers are needed. Won't you think about how much this would mean to kids if you helped? Phone Ross and offer your help, too. HENSALL DISTRICT CO-OP Hensall THERE'S MORE THAN ILLUSTRATED Shelves, cover, and rotisserie are all included in this great barbecue buy at the Hensel' Coop.
