Members of Exeter council
decided this week that any at-
tempts to solve the pigeon
problem in the downtown area
should fall to local businessmen
rather than council,
The subject of pigeons was
broached when council received
a letter from the board of
management of the Downtown
Business Improvement Area in
which a design for a pigeon trap
was included.
The letter was a result of, a
recent meeting between the
board and Councillor Lossy
Fuller, who had been asked by
council to investigate the
possibility of eradicating the
pests.
Board member Gerry Gray
advised that the trap used coat
hangers, which were bent and
rotated in such a way that the
pigeons could get into the device,
but not out.
Noting that pigeons "are
followers rather than leaders",
Gray suggested the trap should
be baited with one or two pigeons
as well as a good supply of feed.
Reeve Si Simmons im-
mediately suggested that the
board should construct their own
trap and not leave it up to council.
His suggestion was approved,
although Mrs. Fuller said she
would be happy to meet with the
board and suggested council
should cooperate in the con-
struction of the trap,
"The biggest problem may be
in getting the one or two pigeons
to put in the trap," Councillor
Ken Ottewell commented.
When it was noted that the
pigeon population appeared to be
on thedecrease,Councillor Harold
Patterson suggested they were
out in the fields eating grain at
the present and would probably
return in the fall.
Heritage plans
fund raising
The Exeter Heritage Foun-
dation this week announced plans

A food booth will be operated at

dance at the new rec centre,
On November 29, the Foun-
dation have secured the services
of the Dominion Life choir from
Kitchener to perform.
Work on the restoration of the
hall is progressing favorably and
is expected to be completed
around the middle of October,
