Centre board makes report
LOCAL RAINBOW. TROUT - Despite few reports of good fishing
catches in this area, Scott and Shawn Heywood proved there ore some
good sized fish around. The two sons of Mr. and Mrs. Lester Heywood
are shown with a pair of rainbow trout. They did not divulge the loca-
tion of the local fishing spot where they were successful.

person - who lartOt named in the
report - was set at $17,000 per
year which includes all fringe
benefits.
The board has also asked the
municipalities for permission to
raise approximately $15,000 over
the original campaign goal for
the new centre
They noted that while the ob-
jective of the fund-raising cam-
paign is expected to be reached,
the additional fonds would be
used for some capital equipment
needed for the facility, such as a
folding door partition for the
hall, kitchen appliances, equip-
ment for the snack bar and bar
and 600 chairs and 6Q tables for
the hall.
It was explained that if these
costs are included in the capital
budget for the centre they would
be eligible for Wintario con-
tributions.
The board also suggested the
municipalities may wish to con-
sider some direct contribution
such as a flag pole, plaques for
the foyer, landscaping or any
other item the councils may wish
to consider.
Ice rental at the arena has
been suggested at $25.00 per
hour. Minor hockey and the
figure skaters would be given a
reduced rote with the former
paying $7,500 for 400 hours and
the figure skaters paying $3,750
for 200 hours over the season.
The rental of the hall would be
$150 for Fridays and Saturdays
with a one-third reduction on the
other five days of the week for
non-profit organizations. The bar
rental is $25 or if operated by the
board, the board would receive
20 percent of the profit.
If only a portion of the hall is to
be rented, the cost would be $90
for the large room and $50 for the
smaller one on Fridays and
Saturdays and the one-third
reduction would again apply for
the other five days.
The kitchen rental is a
minimum of $25 or 10 cents a
place setting, whichever is
greater.

Exeter l.,ouncil weren't as lucky
*as the local PUG when tenders.
Were opened Monday night for
several street projects,
Last week, the PUC received
bids well below the estimate for
the new wells • and pipeline in
Usborne, but council's bids this
week were all over estimate.
The tenders were called for
three projects. These included a
storm sewer on Sanders St. East
from Pryde Boulevard to the
eastern town limits and then
north on Eastern Ave. The other
two were for the reconstruction of
two blocks o1` Andrew Street from
John to Huron and the final coat
of asphalt on Huron St. East from
Edward to the eastern limits,
Of the five bids received, Ken
Gerber of Stratford submitted the
low one at $123,697.75. The high
bid was $174,942.

Works superintendent Glenn
Kells reported that the estimate
on the three projects was around
$115,000.
"That's another $8,000 we have
to make up before we're
through," commented Mayor
Bruce Shaw in reference to this
year's budget,
POOL PROGRESSES
Construction of the Kirkton
swimming pool is well under way
and the fund drive almost over.
Donations to the fund reached
$43,000 this week but Dr. Norm
Amos, chairman of the pool
committee, hopes they will he
able to raise $11,000 more.
Dr. Amos estimated the total
cost of the project at $125,000 to
$135,000 with one-quarter of the
cost being paid by recreational
grants.

Huron-Middlesex announced this
week that Premier William Davis
will be making a visit to the
